The barriers Hispanic farmers face in starting and expanding farming operations in the United States includes the lingering effects of past government discrimination, current marketing and use of information, and their own agricultural traditions. Both the government and the farmers see the need for improvement, but reaching the end goal is a challenge. NET News and Harvest Public Media reporter Clay Masters reports and produces "Hispanic Farmers on Broken Ground." The television documentary features Nebraska Hispanic farm owners, the author of a report on the current state of Hispanic farm ownership in the state, Hispanic students involved in a youth farming organization, as well as U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack. The documentary aims to examine the obstacles currently facing Hispanic farmers in the Midwest and across the country, as well as look ahead to possible solutions for the future.

Berbice cousins missing in interior
After almost a month with no word from them, a frantic search has started for two Berbician cousins who were last heard from at 14 Mile, Issano.
Odel Downer of Number 8 Village, West Coast Berbice (WCB) and Winston Johashen, of Number 9 Village, WCB, both 20, had started working as miners only about three months ago before their disappearance sometime in May.
Merlyn Downer, the mother of Odel, explained that this is the longest she has ever been out of contact with her eldest son. She last spoke to him on May 29 and had found it peculiar when she did not hear from him again. "He wouldn't call every day but at least every other day I would hear from him," she said.
She realised something was definitely wrong, she added, when Father's Day passed without any word from Odel. She immediately began calling anyone who would be able to assist her in her search.
Her calls eventually led to Mursha Johashen, her cousin and the mother of the second missing youth. It was then, Mursha said, she too realised something was truly amiss with her own unreachable son.
When contact was made with the duo's employer late last week, the mothers were informed that the two young men had "broken camp" and left in the middle of the night, never to be seen since.
However, the mothers do not believe this tale. "I would talk to Odel regularly and he never said anything about being unhappy with the job or wanting to leave. He would constantly tell me that he likes it," Merlyn maintained.
The mothers also opined that the theory of the boys' running away is strange. "It seems fishy to me," they said. "Very fishy; it's unlike them both."
A report has already been lodged with the police. In the meantime, the mothers will continue their own desperate search.

Additional Information
About GDMPCGata Daku Multi-Purpose Cooperative (GDMPC) was founded in 1992 by 32 farmer-members to empower people by providing livelihood opportunities and other support services. Today, it has over 15,000 members located in upland, lowland and coastal regions of the Philippines, and offers credit, savings, education, and various social services.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

qemu: allow json in domxml-to-native On 10/20/2011 04:37 AM, tangchen wrote:
Hi, There is a little difference between the output of domxml-to-native and the actual commandline. No matter qemu is in control or readline mode, domxml-to-native always converts it to readline mode. That is because the parameter "monitor_json" for qemuBuildCommandLine() is always set to false in qemuDomainXMLToNative(). Here is the patch, please comment!
+#ifdef HAVE_YAJL + monitor_json = qemuCapsGet(qemuCaps, QEMU_CAPS_MONITOR_JSON); +#endif
The #ifdef is spurious here. It is useful for situations like calling qemuMonitorSystemPowerdown, where we know the command will fail without json support, but not for the simple querying of a capability bit.
For that matter, I'll go ahead and remove the other uses of HAVE_YAJL from this file, as a followup patch.

(The Arizona Republic) - Haze blurs the skies over the Grand Canyon, tour planes break the backcountry silence, uranium mines are making a comeback near the canyon's rim and the Colorado River has lost its muddy mojo.
Add to those threats a perpetually underfunded budget and the picture that emerges is a national park where efforts to protect resources are increasingly compromised, a conservation group said Monday.
In an 80-page "State of the Parks" report, the National Parks Conservation Association analyzed the most serious threats to the Grand Canyon. Some come from outside the park, such as air pollution that blankets the region and future mining operations that could contaminate water flowing downstream into the canyon.
Some threats come from within, such as the popular but noisy air tours that draw complaints from visitors backpacking into the canyon's more remote corners.
Most of the issues raised would require significant amounts of money to fix, changes in state and federal policies, concessions by private businesses, or all of those, but the association said if the problems are left unchecked, the very nature of the park could change forever. Future visitors could find the most majestic views obscured, and habitats for native species could vanish.
"When you look at all of the challenges, you find out that the Grand Canyon is at risk, at grave risk," said David Nimkin, the group's Southwest regional director. "We made a deal when we created the national parks, that we would support them, and we need to do that."
The conservation association is a nonprofit group, founded in 1919 by the first National Park Service director, that aims to protect national parks. It lobbies Congress and government agencies, often to stop policies and legislation that could harm resources.
Although much of the report focuses on the environmental issues, the lack of money is a common thread in each chapter. The report suggests that Congress and past administrations have failed to adequately finance national parks, leaving the Grand Canyon and other sites with too little money for roads, visitor centers, trails and people to look after the park and its resources.
The federal budget provides 38% of the canyon's operating funds, the report said, an amount slightly less than other national parks. The rest is made up of entrance fees, grants and donations. The park also struggles with more than $200 million in deferred maintenance and unmet infrastructure needs.
The Park Service acknowledges the budget gap at the park. The Grand Canyon's is a little larger than most, park Superintendent Steve Martin said. That makes it tough to provide a good experience for 5 million annual visitors.
"You hate to have to bring up some of the realities of what it takes to run a park," he said. But the lack of adequate money "affects your ability to do resource management. It starts to affect your ability to carry out your whole mission."
Martin said the report as a whole is largely accurate and reflects many of the Park Service's own concerns.
Among other threats outlined in the report:
• Management of the Colorado River. The construction of Glen Canyon Dam in the 1960s tamed a once-wild and muddy river, turning it cooler, clearer and less able to support the Grand Canyon's natural environment.
Sediment that once built beaches and wildlife habitat along the river is now trapped behind the dam. Native fish struggle to survive in cooler water, which is better suited to non-native trout, which eat the native fish.
"The heart and soul of the Grand Canyon is the Colorado River," said Dan McCool, director of environmental studies at the University of Utah. "That river is in danger of becoming a sterile, man-made channel, lined with invasive species and filled with invasive aquatic species."
• Uranium mining. Higher prices for uranium ore have renewed interest in opening new mines on public lands near the Grand Canyon. More than 1,000 new claims have been filed in recent years, a prospect the parks group and other critics argue would harm the canyon.
"At least 100 mines that are 20 acres or larger will be operating in and around the canyon in the next 20 years," said Roger Clark, who works on mining issues for the advocacy group Grand Canyon Trust in Flagstaff, Ariz.
Mines also threaten the watershed, the parks group's report said, with the risk of uranium or mining waste seeping into the Colorado River, a source of drinking water for more than 20 million people downstream.
Interior Secretary Ken Salazar has imposed a temporary moratorium on new mining claims, but an environmental study of the issue has been delayed and only Congress can make the ban permanent.
• Air and noise pollution. Regional haze from power plants and cities hundreds of miles away can mar the views of the canyon, while noise from air tours disturbs the silence, the report said.
Cleaning the air would require pollution controls on power plants. Such controls, under review by the Environmental Protection Agency, would be expensive and are opposed by power providers.
The noise issue has dogged the Park Service for years, though the latest proposal to regulate tours is due out later this year. The plan could include new limits on the number of flights allowed overall, the times tours can fly and the flight paths they can take.
Martin said he welcomed the park group's report, even if it presented an often gloomy assessment.
"The truth is it's such an incredible place, and it's worth making sure we give it the best and most thoughtful concerns," he said. "Hopefully, we'll be able to take care of it for the long haul. As time goes on, parks will become more valuable to everyone."

Increased research, a state of the art facility and eventually more health care workers. Just a few of the extras you may experience with the proposed expansion of Michigan State University's College of Human Medicine into Grand Rapids.
Additional details about the proposed expansion were released on MSU's Web site Thursday. In the form of work papers used to compose the "Proof of Concept" announced Wednesday, financing the expansion would happen in part from about $100 million annual research dollars. A new building purchase would cost about $60-70 million. The research staff should surpass 150 people by the sixth year of the program and the expectation is to have about 350 students living and working in West Michigan.

Celebrities like Ranbir Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif were among those who attended a special screening of "Ship Of Theseus" here, organised by actor-filmmaker Aamir Khan.
Among others who were seen at the event held Tuesday were Parineeti Chopra, Kunal Kapoor, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Ashutosh Gowariker, Rajkumar Yadav, Aditi Rao Hydari and Kunal Kohli.
Aamir's wife Kiran Rao is presenting "Ship Of Theseus", directed by Anand Gandhi. Aamir not only hosted a special screening for the project, but also a party.
"Kiran saw this film earlier. She loved it and asked me to see the film. When I saw it, I loved it too. We thought we should promote these kinds of films, so we invited all our friends from the industry for this screening. I wanted them to see the film and meet the star cast," Aamir told reporters here.
Aamir said he had also invited actor Salman Khan for the screening. But he couldn't make it in time as he was busy shooting in Hyderabad, and his flight back to Mumbai was delayed.
However, Aamir said that Salman had promised to make it to the party, which was organised at the former's residence.
"Ship Of Theseus" is a story about human values, and its narrative surrounds three characters -- an experimental photographer, an ailing monk and a stock broker. The film releases Friday.

Race 31 of 36 on Sprint Cup circuit
Lowe's Motor Speedway, Concord, NC
October 15, 2005 7:10 pm EDT
1.5 miles
501.00 miles
|Ryan Newman
|Started from the rear of the field due to transmission work on his Dodge after qualifying and battled to a 23rd in Kansas; ran in the top five in each of the first three "Chase" races, including a win in New Hampshire, to close within four points of front-running Stewart; enters this event 75 points off the pace in second; has three career top-fives here, including a fifth in May; was running third late in this race last year before an accident relegated him to a 14th-place finish; leads the circuit with six poles, including a track-record qualifying effort of 192.988 mph in the series' last trip here; leads all active drivers with a 2.11 average start here on the strength of five poles, including the first of his career in 2001; the last driver to qualify for the "Chase" is looking to recover from his worst result in the last six races: "We're disappointed with our finish last weekend in Kansas but we're not letting that get us down. We're still second in points and we've still got a shot at this championship. If that was our one mulligan then I think we'll be OK. We just can't have any more finishes like that."
|Jimmie Johnson
|Won a thrilling final-lap battle with Bobby Labonte to set a record with a third straight victory on this track in May's Coca-Cola 600; was 247 points off the pace entering this race last year before mounting a furious comeback that left him eight points behind Busch to mark the closest standings finish in stock car racing history; won four of the final six races last year, ending the season with a circuit-high eight checkered flags; fell a spot to fifth in the standings despite a sixth in Kansas last week; was his third top-10 in four "Chase" events and 18th of the season, good for second on the circuit; only result outside the top-10 during the "Chase" was a 31st in Talladega, where he was responsible for the first of two major accidents; hoping to build on a 7.37 average finish here: "At Charlotte, I've been waiting for our success to slow down there. I thought it would be that way in the spring. We got off to a slow start but by the end of the night we made the right adjustments and ended up winning the race. Going to Charlotte, there is really only one direction for us to go and that's not winning. If that happens, so be it. But I really feel comfortable and confident about our chances there."
|Tony Stewart
|Widened his lead to 75 points over Newman with a fourth in last week's Banquet 400; was his 15th top-10 in the last 16 races, a stretch which includes each of his five checkered flags this season; was 10th in the points standings before the streak began with a second in Michigan on June 19; finished 24th here in May among his eight results of 15th or worse in the season's first 14 events; leads the circuit with 15 top-fives and 21 top-10s and needs one more victory to match his career high set in 2000; won this event in 2003 and finished 10th last year among his nine top-10s in 13 career starts here; the 2002 series champion is unconcerned about the chasing pack as he pursues a second title: "It's more important for me to make sure we're doing everything 100 percent. We can't control what they do anyway, so why worry about what they're doing? The only thing we can control is what we do. We need to focus 100 percent of our energy on what we're doing and not on what everybody else is doing."
|Mark Martin
|The 46-year-old led 139 laps and withstood a late charge by Biffle to win last week's Banquet 400 at Kansas, ending a 57-race winless streak; bounced back from a 41st at Talladega the previous week, when he was involved in the first of two major accidents there; is 113 points off the pace in seventh place on the strength of three top-10s in the first four "Chase" events; won the non-points Nextel All-Star Challenge here in May but was saddled with a 28th in the Coca-Cola 600 the next week; has recorded 19 top-10s in 41 career starts here; tied for the lead among active drivers with four triumphs here, with the most recent coming in May 2002; has eight top-fives and 15 top-10s in his penultimate season on the circuit.
|Kurt Busch
|Defending series champion is last among the 10 title-eligible competitors, 224 points off the pace; beginning with a 35th in New Hampshire, has finished outside the top 10 in three of the first four "Chase" events; posted nine top-10s in the 10-race championship run last season; appeared poised to challenge for another title with six top-10s, including two of his three victories this season, in the nine races leading up to the "Chase"; ran fourth in this race last season for his only top-10 result in 10 starts here; an early spin led to a last-place finish here in May.
|Carl Edwards
|Ran third behind Roush Racing teammates Martin and Biffle at his home track in Kansas last week but remained sixth in the standings, 95 points off the pace; has run in the top 10 in each of the last three races after opening the "Chase" with a 19th; is just seven points out of third place; has posted 10 top-fives, including two victories, in his first full premier series season; also is fourth in the Busch Series standings, racking up four wins on that circuit; ran third here in May.
|Matt Kenseth
|The 2003 series champion continued his impressive second half of the season with a fifth from the pole last week in Kansas; was his third top-five in four "Chase" events and ninth in the last 16 races; managed only one top-10 in the inaugural "Chase"; entered the 10-race championship run ninth in the standings and has climbed to eighth, 116 points out of first but just 28 behind third-place Biffle; recorded his lone checkered flag of the season in dominant fashion, leading 415 laps from the pole in the Sharpie 500 on August 27; was caught up in an accident involving DEI teammates Dale Earnhardt Jr. and Michael Waltrip here in May, resulting in a 37th-place finish; won the spring race here in 2000 among his six top-10s in 12 starts here.
|Greg Biffle
|Challenged Roush Racing teammate Mark Martin late before settling for second in last week's Banquet 400 at Kansas; climbed two spots to third in the standings, 88 points off the pace; opened the "Chase" with a fourth in New Hampshire for his fifth straight top-six before finishing 13th in Dover and 27th in Talladega; tied with Tony Stewart for the circuit lead with five checkered flags this season but has not visited victory lane since June 19 at Michigan; second in the series with 12 top-fives; ran in the top 10 nine times in this year's first 13 events, including a sixth here in May; finished 33rd in this event last year and has an 18.6 average finish in five career starts here.
|In his final season on the circuit, the 49-year-old is fourth in the standings, 90 points off the pace; has run in the top 10 in four of the last events, including three of the first four "Chase" races; with Mark Martin's win last week, is the only championship-eligible driver without a victory this season as his last checkered flag game in Martinsville on April 18, 2004; has been running at the finish in 43 consecutive races, the longest active streak on the circuit; the 1989 series champion has two career victories here but none since May 1990; ran 10th here in May and has eight top-15 finishes in the last nine events on this track.
|Ran 16th last week in Kansas to tumble a spot to ninth in the standings; has run outside the top 10 in three of the first four "Chase" events, leaving him 157 points off the pace; was an additional 100 points back in 10th place entering this race last year; has recorded only four top-fives and eight top-10s this season, easily the lowest totals among championship-eligible contenders; hoping to build upon a fourth-place showing in May's Coca-Cola 600 here: We ran pretty well at Charlotte in the 600. We finished with a strong fourth after starting in the back. This Dodge crew fought back all night to bring us to the front. Our Dodge Chargers have been fast on the (1 1/2-mile) tracks this year, and in each race our pit stop average has improved. I believe we are going to be front contenders before the end of the night."

Privacy in the Age of the Hacker: Balancing Global Privacy and Data Security Law
Cunningham, McKay, The George Washington International Law Review
The twin goals of privacy and data security share a fascinating symbiotic relationship-too much of one undermines the other. Unregulated Internet monitoring in security's name emasculates privacy, while privacy laws that heavily burden data sharing and processing corrode data security. Both sides to this inverse relationship suffered a multitude of indignities in 2011.
In November 2011, cyber thieves took $2.7 million from 3,400 Citigroup customers after 360,000 accounts were hacked.1 Citigroup could not retrieve the data, which included customers' financial data and other personal information. The customers had not misplaced their credit cards or typed out credit card numbers on untrustworthy websites;2 their only mistake was opening accounts with Citigroup.
Throughout 2011, Saudi Arabia and Israel continued a tit-for-tat school yard scuffle. Instead of trading insults, hackers from the respective nations illegally accessed and published financial and personal information about the other's citizens.3 A nineteen-yearold Saudi posted online personal information, including financial details of six thousand Israelis.4 In retaliation, Israeli hackers covertly obtained credit card and other financial details from thousands of Saudis, threatening public disclosure.5
In April 2011, Sony suffered a massive breach in its video game online network. Volumes of customer data were compromised, including names, addresses, and possibly credit card data associated with over 77 million user accounts.6
While alarmist sentiment threatens more harm than it hastens help,7 the Internet is a rather lawless "place." Cyber threats of almost every ilk are increasing in both frequency and sophistication. 8 Since 2005, an estimated 543 million records have been lost as a result of more than 2,800 data breaches.9 In 2011, data security experts recorded 403 million variants of malware.10 "Scholars, government officials, journalists, and computer scientists all agree that inadequate security is an emerging threat - perhaps a catastrophic one . . . ."11
At the same time, logarithmic increases of information-terabytes of data-course through the web, much of it personal and private. At 487 billion gigabytes, if the world's expanding digital content were printed and bound into books it would form a stack that would stretch from Earth to Pluto ten times.12 As more people log on and join the digital masses for the first time, data flows inevitably expand, as do calls for protecting private data.13 How do we secure data from evolving cyber threats while ensuring that private data is used only by the parties and for the purposes intended?
Where balance is required, unfortunately the international regulatory climate is lopsided. International law tilts unevenly in favor of data privacy. The European Union's Directive 95/46/EC14 (Directive) set the standard for data privacy regulation and facilitated a trend among wired countries toward nationalized data privacy laws. In the less than forty years following the first comprehensive national privacy law (Sweden, 1973), seventy-six countries have followed suit.15 As Professor Graham Greenleaf notes, "[t]he picture that emerges is that data privacy laws are spreading globally, and their number and geographic diversity accelerating since 2000."16
There were seven new national omnibus privacy laws in the 1970s, ten in the 1980s, nineteen in the 1990s, thirty-two in the 2000s, and eight so far in the first two years of this decade.17 At the current rate of expansion, fifty new laws will emerge in this decade. The most economically significant nations notably absent are the United States, China, and Brazil.18 India adopted omnibus data privacy laws in 2011,19 and Brazil is expected to pass such legislation this year,20 leaving only the United States and China.
By design, omnibus data privacy laws restrict data sharing, a fact that inhibits data security providers who increasingly rely on massive amounts of data to identify and neutralize threats like malware, botnets, distributed denial of service attacks, and Trojan horses. …

McNabb should go to a team where he will play all year no questions asked, in Carolina, he will be on a short leash due to the fact Panther fans want to see Newton. When I want a redskins fan's opinion, I'll pass gas. Mcnabb can still get it done. I'd be more concerned with him being able to stay healthy for a full season.

306; EN168) the spot they are in.55 The verb sich fortbewegen implies forwards movement and the German sentence is shaped to end with the image of hands stretched out. The children promise future hope, not as a stark choice of being either inside or outside the law, but as motion towards contact. They also belong in a series of generational signs beginning with the old woman from a past order observing the arrest of the man of the present. These infants belong in a future beyond K.'s death and the grille of time which cuts them off from K. Fräulein Bürstner, or the woman who looks like her, is, as I argued at the beginning of this chapter, a second, more ambiguous sign. Her appearance causes K. to drop all resistance in response to the lesson for him which she represents. But as she turns off in another direction, the woman moves towards what may be a different future. The last omen is ambiguous between hope and despair. It repeats the gesture of the children as K. now sees only arms in the lighted window trying to meet, but the gap between the outstretched arms of the other who leans from a window and K.'s raised hands with their spread fingers is wider now, and in the end all that seems to outlive K.'s end is the shame of it. The parallel movement between children's and adults' arms which fail to meet could mean either that the hope of childhood is doomed to be extinguished in adulthood, or that hands which cannot now meet may meet in the future. Even the shame is ambiguous: it adds to the horror of K.'s demise, but also denies recognition to the punitive law. Despite K.'s drastic end, then, the omens deny total narrative closure, leaving openings for the reader to think further.
I have argued that Josef K represents a subject constructed by patriarchal and class relations in forms they assume in an urban, capitalist society which also has a strong, if chaotic, state apparatus and is riddled with ethnic tensions and with anti-semitism. This model explains why Kafka has been appropriated both by left-wing critics of capitalism and by Cold War anti-Communists defending liberal freedoms against Soviet statism.

To answer this question, a panel of experts convened at the Every Building Conference & Expo's inaugural Industrial Day. The show is produced by BUILDINGS and BOMA International.
Industrial properties are conservative investments, the panel says, because this sector is generally:

I have used both for years.
I have an XT shadow derailer on my Swift. I want to ride fast, and up hills with it. I would not consider putting an IGH on it. My experience with a variety of them, they are a bit heavy, and I can most certainly feel the extra drag they produce. And it's a weird thing - once I have something light under my bum, it just wants to go fast. So the weight is a big deal for me - somehow it matters more than just the bare grams. It's not just placebo either - a light bike brings out more, I just have this urge to ride harder. A heavy bike feels more sluggish, even if the difference is slight, and it makes me relax a bit more, so I just go slower.
Re the maintenance - if riding in wet weather, the SA hubs are actually no good. Water got into mine every time, rusting the bearings. It is a helluva lot more work to strip and grease a set of bearings than to spray WD-40 on a chain, spin cranks, blow out with compressed air, and oil the chain rollers. And I have never bent a derailer on any of my folders with them on.
I also have doubts about the validity of the argument that a low-hanging derailer will pick up extra dirt. If you are riding normal dry sealed roads, I don't think there is any extra dirt. On wet roads - sure, but I have found the majority of wet dirt is splashed up from the wheels, and smaller wheels tend to splash more than big ones, so the smaller wheels make the derailer and chain get dirty quicker, not the low-hanging position per se. But in very short order the difference between small wheels and big wheels is gone because the chain gets saturated. So I find that the chain gets as dirty as with any sized wheel bike. I don't notice any difference.

Evan Chambers parents were in attendance as the Curve honored their former player who died in the offseason. Denise Chambers, Evan's mom, won the auction of both the #31 jersey, signed by the entire Curve team and the #53 Keon Broxton game-worn jersey. Broxton played high school baseball with Evan, and the two were close. Watch the video for the special moment when Broxton gave the Chambers the jerseys they won. Pirates GM Neal Huntington was also in attendance to show his support. The game story between the Curve and Mets is below.
ALTOONA – Altoona dropped the series finale to the Binghamton Mets 7-4 on Sunday night at Peoples Natural Gas Field. With the loss, the Curve dropped three of the four games in the series and lost the season series to the B-Mets six-games-to-four.
Binghamton got off to a quick start by tagging Curve starter Pat Ludwig. The B-Mets scored four runs in the second inning on five hits in the inning while sending all nine men to the plate. Ludwig also stumbled in the third when Binghamton struck for two more runs to take a 6-0 lead.
The Curve got a run back in the bottom of the third inning. After Alen Hanson reached on an error, he scored on a two-out double by Matt Curry down the left field line.
Binghamton got a run back in the sixth to take a 7-1 lead but the Curve managed to get a run across in the seventh. Willy Garcia led off the frame with a single that deflected into center field and he scored from first on an RBI double off the bat of Stetson Allie.
Altoona plated their final runs of the game in the ninth inning. Jarek Cunningham led off the inning with a triple and scored one batter later on a groundout by Ralph Henriquez. With the bases empty, Justin Howard drew a pinch-hit walk and scored two batters later on a double by Kelson Brown.
Ludwig (0-3) took the loss after he allowed six runs on seven hits over three innings. B-Mets starter Matt Bowman (6-5) earned the win after he held the Curve to two runs on six hits while striking out nine in seven innings of work.
Altoona (29-52) dropped the series to Binghamton (48-33) after they struck out 44 times in the series and will embark on a four-game series with the Bowie Baysox beginning tomorrow night at Prince George's Stadium. RHP Joan Montero (2-3, 4.57) will start for the Curve against Bowie southpaw Anthony Vasquez (2-5, 4.95). First pitch is scheduled for 6:35 p.m. while pregame while pregame on ESPN Radio 1430, WVAM, and the Curve Radio Network is scheduled for 6:05 p.m.
The Curve will return to Peoples Natural Gas Field on Friday, July 4 to begin a homestand with the Harrisburg Senators and Erie SeaWolves.

The moment that I have bought this graphic card I am seeing this issue, ever game is performing poorly with the EVGA GTX 465 which suppose to be the best card for gaming ever. It scored very low with all the test that I have taken, most of the game was running in so low FPS even on low setting. I have 8 GB of RAM with AMD PHENOM 9600 QUAD-CORE 2.3GHZ processor. What worse is in the utilization of CPU and the GPU option while playing any game I can see it is not even half a average. Is there someone else here who has same experience or am I doing something wrong because when I saw the review of this card it was like the best card ever. Please guys help me on this I would appreciate this.

Nov. 1, 2012
IOWA CITY, Iowa - University of Iowa football coordinators Greg Davis and Phil Parker continue to work on the little things with Iowa's young football team as the Hawkeyes prepare for Saturday's contest at Indiana.
Parker, Iowa's defensive coordinator, says a number of little things on defense may not show up for fans who are in attendance or watching the Hawkeyes play on television.
"Every day we are on the practice field we work on technique and fundamentals," said Parker, following Thursday's practice. "We are facing another up-tempo offense that plays at a fast pace. We have to focus on getting lined up properly and be ready to play fast."
After facing a predominately rushing attack a week ago at Northwestern, the Iowa defense Saturday will go against the top passing team in the Big Ten.
"It's a challenge," said Parker. "Indiana has great skill guys on the outside. We have to get lined up, read our keys, be sound fundamentally and get to the ball as fast as we can."
The Iowa offense has had games this season where it has displayed both a solid ground game and an effective passing attack, and Davis, as offensive coordinator, feels the offense gets closer and closer each week to featuring that balance.
"We are constantly talking about details," said Davis. "That may be finishing plays, route running, blocking up front, those types of things. Last week our time of possession was good and we moved the ball, but a break down here and there prevented us from completing several drives with points."
Damon Bullock returned to action against Northwestern a week ago, and Davis says the sophomore running back has had a good week of practice.
"I was really pleased with Damon last week," said Davis. "To rush for over 100 yards, he caught the ball well, in a game that was like starting the season over. He has looked comfortable this week, he's had a good week of practice."
The Hawkeyes and Hoosiers will meet at 2:42 p.m. CT Saturday at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington. The game will be televised by BTN.

Investment Portfolio Management Using the Business Cycle approach/Investiciju Portfelio Valdymas Verslo Ciklo Poziuriu
Dzikevicius, Audrius, Vetrov, Jaroslav, Business: Theory and Practice
Nowadays, economic instability is commonly associated with business booms and recessions. We have become accustomed to speaking about these vicissitudes in economic fortune as the "business cycle". Business cycles are the results of cyclical changes in major macroeconomic forces of the economy. These forces are responsible for alterations in the "fundamentals" that affect asset prices. Thus, it is not surprising that research on asset valuation overwhelmingly finds a positive and statistically significant relationship between various assets and the state of the economy. Each asset has unique cash low and risk characteristics during different phases of the business cycle.
Owen and Griffiths (2006) stated that business cycle analysis provided investors with a compass reading the whereabouts of the global markets. This is essential information they need before they start making decisions on the appropriate allocation of assets--equities, bonds, cash and other investments--within their portfolios. It also helps in determining geographic weighting. By setting stock selection within the context of cycle analysis, investors will know whether it is appropriate to chase momentum or pursue a more defensive strategy. To approach the business cycle, investors may choose from two ways one of which is to attempt to spot the turning points and shift asset allocation between various asset classes accordingly and the second is to ignore the business cycle completely and concentrate on picking good companies or identifying investment themes.
Many global asset classes in the 20th century produced spectacular gains in wealth for individuals who bought and held those assets for generational long holding periods. However, most of the common asset classes experienced painful drawdowns, while others complete elimination of wealth. Indeed, many investors can recall horrific 40-80% declines they faced in the aftermath of the global stock market crash only a few years ago. Thus, the main problem of this work is closely connected to the problems that face investors--the maximization of profit and the minimization of risk. The object of the thesis is the historical performance of asset classes and OECD Composite Leading Indicators. Accordingly, the main goal of this work is the integration of the business cycle approach to the construction of optimal investment portfolios.
The paper combines business cycle, asset allocation and portfolio optimization theories by presenting a new model of the investment process and adding valuable information about the performance of asset classes in different phases of the business cycle. It also demonstrates how to use the business cycle approach to investment decision making. 6 asset classes, including US stocks, EAFE stocks, bonds, gold, real estate and commodities have been applied in the conducted analysis.
Research methods used in this paper are the logical analysis and synthesis of scientific literature, the comparison and generalization method, statistical analysis and optimization taken on the grounds of the OECD Composite Leading Indicator approach.
1. Literature review
Academic literature contains much evidence that the expected returns and volatility of asset classes vary through time. Moreover, in high-volatility environments across the world, not only do equity returns perform poorly, but they also become more highly correlated.
In their study, Van Vliet and Blitz (2011) state that the risk and return properties of asset classes are highly dependent on the prevailing business cycle phase. Risk tends to go up in bad times, which is undesirable for a risk averse investor. Besides risk, the average return of many assets is also found to be highly dependent on the economic cycle phase. Most assets exhibit above-average returns during recessions and recoveries and below-average returns during expansions and peaks.
The results obtained by Nyberg (2012) also show that the strength of risk aversion appears to be significantly higher in the recession period compared with the expansion one. …

Can also be used as bookmarks
I bought these to use as bookmarks and they are perfect! The material they're made of smells a bit when you first open them but that goes away after you air them out. The characters on the top of the clips are a little raised and puffy; not flat. They're much more glittery in person than they are online. I wouldn't buy these if you want to hold large stacks of paper together. They are better for just holding a few papers together or to use as a cute bookmark. With 6 different poses they're super adorable!

Total system efficiency
When people use the word "efficiency" in the world of water systems, they're usually taking a very narrow view -- talking about something like pump hydraulic efficiency. But there is far more to the story. Total system efficiency goes much farther than that:

Equipment rental: Great for pilot projects and short-term needs
Sometimes, a plant doesn't need equipment permanently but only for a short period. This can happen when, for instance, a replacement plant is being constructed but existing facilities need to meet new discharge limits until the new system comes on-line. Or it can happen if a seasonal industry adds temporary loads to a wastewater stream that are only present for a few months at a time.
Under these conditions -- or if you're in a situation where a long-term trial with the option to buy fits better than an up-front purchase -- you may find something you like in the RWL Water rental program. Most RWL Water aeration products are available for rental for as little as three months at a time. And if you're using that period to run a pilot project or test trial, you can extend the lease or get credit for part of the initial rental fee applied to the purchase of the same equipment. It's an exceptional value and a great way to use public funds efficiently. Contact us for more information.
Hydrogen sulfide hazards

The Federal Way grandmother who registered her dog to vote pleaded not guilty Thursday to making false statements on a voter-registration...
The Federal Way grandmother who registered her dog to vote pleaded not guilty Thursday to making false statements on a voter-registration form.
Jane Balogh, who says it's too easy for a voter to register illegally, sought to prove her point by registering one of her dogs, Duncan MacDonald, as a King County absentee voter.
She put her phone in Duncan's name, and that apparently sufficed. Although the Australian shepherd-terrier mix signed each ballot envelope with a picture of a paw print, he didn't vote. Balogh wrote "void" on each ballot.
The King County prosecutor's office charged Balogh, 66, with making false or misleading statements to a public servant, a gross misdemeanor punishable by up to 90 days in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Balogh last week said she planned to plead guilty. She changed her mind because election officials were using Duncan's canine outing as proof the system worked.
"She's just kind of annoyed because Duncan's still on the voting rolls," said Balogh's lawyer, Kristen Anderson. "Somebody is clearly not getting the message."
It's not that no one is paying attention, said Laura Lockard, acting election program manager for voter services. But there is "an arduous process" to have someone — even if that someone is a dog — taken off the voter rolls.
To successfully remove Duncan, Balogh will be presented with a letter challenging her dog's registration and calling her to a public hearing.
"They need to fix their system," Balogh argues. "And if they don't, I've wasted my time."
The elections system is designed to catch fraud in actual votes — not in the registration process, said Sherril Huff, director designee of the Records, Elections and Licensing Services division of King County Executive Services.
The signature on a registration form or ballot serves as an oath, declaring that the information is true and that the person in question is a qualified voter, she said.
"The bottom line is that [Balogh] took a number of calculated steps to be on the voter-registration files in a way that would not send up any red flags," Huff said. "What she proved is that if you falsify information, then yes, you may be able to get a ballot sent to you."
Balogh's pretrial hearing is scheduled for July 11.

Pacesetter for Generation E
Baxter, Tracy, Sierra
Kim Mowery couldn't have chosen a tougher act to follow. As 1996-1997 head of the Sierra Student Coalition, comparison to Adam Werbach, cofounder of the SSC and now president of the entire Sierra Club, was only natural. But if it took a green wunderkind to launch a national network of young activists, it required just as much gusto to direct the energies of the membership, now 30,000 strong and growing. By all reports Mowery, the first female to pilot the SSC, performed admirably. "Her smile and drive pushed activists forward, even during the depths of late-night letter-stuffing parties," says Werbach.
Like her celebrated predecessor, Mowery's conservationist career started early. While a high school junior, Mowery documented the history of the environmental movement in a 20-page term paper. After charting the tactics and philosophies of different groups, she came away impressed by the Club's brand of advocacy. "I learned a lot about the effectiveness of the Sierra Club. It brought about radical changes in environmental pro section by informing people about problems and shell giving them the means to take charge."
In 1994, as a freshman at Brown University, Mowery joined the SSC to try her hand at educating and organizing. A native of McHenry, Illinois, she gravitated to Great Lakes pollution issues, and found that rallying other college students through cold calls was a "mammoth task." By spring 1995, however, after a semester-long effort, the Midwest Network was up and running hill tilt, fighting the 104th Congress "dirty water bill" by circulating petitions, writing letters to the editor, and "dorm-storming"--that is, going door-to-door urging on-campus students to phone ill their protests to key legislators. This led an anti-environmental group in the West to brand the student activists Nature Nazis. "If the Sahara Club is calling us names, I guess that means we're getting something accomplished," says Mowery.
The Midwest regional training she coordinated helped dozens of students connect with each other and with regional Club entities and resources. …
