USA Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: USAT) ("USAT"), a leader of wireless, cashless payment and M2M telemetry solutions for small-ticket, self-serve retailing industries and Betson Enterprises, a division of H. Betti Industries, Inc. ("Betson"), a leading worldwide distributor of coin-operated amusement and vending equipment, coin-operated parts and service, today announced a national distribution agreement designed to expand the use of cashless payment within the amusement industry.
Betson, with 12 distribution offices across the United States, represents the industry's leading designers and manufacturers of amusement games. Subject to the terms of the three year agreement, Betson will serve as an authorized distributor of USAT's ePort® for cashless payment and data reporting services, including exclusive use of USAT's ePort Connect® service in conjunction with a customer's ePort.
According to Vending Times' 2012 Census based on 2011 data, the amusement vending industry, which includes categories such as video games, digital jukeboxes, electronic dart boards, ticket redemption arcade games and prize dispensing games, is a $4.67 billion industry with approximately 1 million machine locations.
"We are excited to be launching this new distribution relationship with USAT," said Betson's vice president of sales and business development, Jonathan Betti. "In our view, there is a tremendous amount of potential to improve business performance in the amusement industry by offering cashless payment. Similar to the way advances in technology and programming have altered the user experience and demographics in the amusement industry, we believe USAT's cashless payment and data reporting can provide another powerful boost to the industry.
"The growing appeal of cashless payment alternatives and the data reporting element available through USAT's ePort Connect service should support broader market appeal and greater returns for amusement operators," added Betti. "Players of high-end prize redemption games, digital jukeboxes, simulators and high volume plush toy merchandisers (crane machines) are a great match for the convenience of cashless payment. No more wrestling with the bill acceptor or searching for more coins in your pocket. In addition, amusement operators can benefit from the increased play cashless should facilitate while also reducing the inherent costs of handling cash," said Betti.
USAT's ePort cashless payment system is supported by its one-stop ePort Connect service—a PCI-compliant, comprehensive suite of cashless payment, telemetry and consumer engagement services specially tailored to fit the needs of the unattended, small-ticket retailing industry. ePort Connect enables self-service terminals to accept credit, debit, contactless cards and other cashless forms of payment and includes all elements of transaction processing, 24 x 7 customer service and online tracking of cash and cashless transactions.
"Betson is the gold standard for distribution in the amusement industry," said Michael Lawlor, USAT's senior vice president of sales and business development. "We believe their reputation and nationwide reach will be a facilitator to our anticipated growth platform as we continue to extend our reach beyond traditional vending to new market segments in small-ticket, unattended retail. We look forward to working with Betson in this exciting new opportunity."

Cisco licenses iOS name to Apple, screenshot shows iWork on iPhoneBefore Apple announced its newly renamed iOS, the company came to an agreement with the owner of the trademark, Cisco. Also, a screenshot temporarily shown on Apple's website suggested Keynote, part of the iWork suite, could be coming to the iPhone.
Cisco, Apple agree on iOS trademark
On its website Monday, Cisco revealed that it has agreed to license the use of the iOS name to Apple for its mobile operating system on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Cisco owns the trademark for IOS, its core operating system used for nearly two decades.
"The license is for use of the trademark only and not for any technology," Cisco noted.
The company said that Cisco IOS software is the most widely leveraged network infrastructure software in the world, and is currently found on millions of active systems.
The prior agreement is different from 2007, when Apple introduced the iPhone — a trademark that was also owned by Cisco. Following Apple's iPhone announcement, Cisco sued, alleging infringement.
A month later, the two companies reached a settlement that allowed both companies to use the iPhone trademark on their products throughout the world.
Apple also did not own the name iPad earlier this year, when its new multitouch device was introduced. Fujitsu released the first product to carry that name in 2002. Days before Apple's iPad was announced, the Cupertino, Calif., company acquired the trademark from Fujitsu.
Keynote, iWork could come to iPhone
Apple on Monday had a screenshot on its website showing the option to open an e-mail attachment on the iPhone in Keynote. Currently, the only iOS version of Keynote available is on the iPad, along with Pages and Numbers, rounding out the iWork suite.
The screenshot was quickly grabbed by Pocket-lint before Apple pulled it down. The image was replaced with a screen that read "Open in 'iBooks'" instead of "Open in 'Keynote.'"
Since the trio of multitouch iWork applications were released for iPad, they have consistently been among the top selling software on the App Store. One projection suggested the iPad versions of the iWork suite will earn Apple $40 million a year.

Tjena! I've realized this morning I last blogged about Sweden in March so let me amend that right away on Sweden's National Day. The Swedes aren't so big on the national day and there isn't much going on in town, except for everything being closed. We have, however, had about two weeks of literally the best possible weather so I have no doubt everyone will be sprawled out on laws and rocks across the city just hanging out.
Yes, my friends, the "euphoric Swedish summer" has arrived in Gothenburg and it is indeed euphoric. Temperatures hanging around 25*C/75*F, lots of sun, 4am to 11pm daylight. We suffer through the long, dark winter but when Spring arrives, it really arrives. I was so worried it would just never be warm, but this year it seems we are going to have some nice weather. There are plenty of cold-weather photos in this update because we start in April.

'Fast Five', 'Hangover II' and 'Thor' Named the Most Pirated Movies in 2011
What are the most pirated movies in 2011? "Fast Five" came out on top in the list of 2011's most-pirated movies on BitTorrent, according to data released by TorrentFreak on Friday, December 23. Illegally downloaded for 9.3 million times this year, it was followed by "The Hangover Part II" and "Thor".
The sequel of "The Hangover" landed #2 with 8.8 million downloads, while the Chris Hemsworth-starring movie ranked #3 with 7.9 million downloads. Oscar-winning film "The King's Speech" placed #9 with 6.3 million downloads, while "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II" rounds up the top ten with 6 million downloads.
"127 Hours" and "Sucker Punch", which box office grosses were relatively modest, also made it into the list. Other big movies, such as "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" and "Transformers: Dark of the Moon", surprisingly couldn't be found in the Top 10 list.
Although "Fast Five" topped the list this year, its number of downloads was way below last year's most-pirated film, "Avatar", which was accessed illegally for more than 16 million times. The average number of downloads for the entire top 10 list is also lower than that of last year.
TorrentFreak reasoned the decrease happened because of the "increase in legal alternatives" and "alternative piracy sources" including cyberlockers and streaming sites. It further noted that the number of active BitTorrent users isn't decreasing, which could mean that the downloads may simply be spread out over more titles.
Top 10 Most Pirated Movies in 2011:
- "Fast Five" - 9.3 million downloads
- "The Hangover Part II" - 8.8 million downloads
- "Thor" - 8.3 million downloads
- "Source Code" - 7.9 million downloads
- "I Am Number Four" - 7.7 million downloads
- "Sucker Punch" - 7.2 million downloads
- "127 Hours" - 6.9 million
- "Rango" - 6.5 million downloads
- "The King's Speech" - 6.3 million downloads

2013 boating season will start with a bang on Sydney Harbour
by Nathan Ross on 27 Sep 2013
Howard Glenn Marine Rescue NSW
The 2013 boating season will start with a bang on Sydney Harbour this October long weekend, coinciding with the Royal Australian Navy's International Fleet Review.
'Responsible and safe behaviour is the message we're driving home this boating season, starting with those skippers taking to the water next weekend for the biggest event on the harbour we've seen in 100 years,' General Manager of Transport for NSW's Maritime Management Centre, Howard Glenn, said.
'On Thursday October 3, 16 tall ships from around the world will sail into Sydney Harbour, followed by 37 Australian and international warships the next day.
'More than 1.7 million visitors are expected throughout the week, with 1.4 million people likely to turn out on the long weekend,' Mr Glenn said.
'Our waterways will be buzzing with activity, so it's extremely important skippers keep a proper lookout and take special care where higher speed and larger vessels are operating.'
Howard Glenn said now is also the time for boaters to check all their equipment to make sure it is in working order.
'For many boaters, the long weekend will be the first time in months they've hit the water so it is vital safety gear is still on board and still works in the way it should,' Mr Glenn said.
'Accidents can happen so you need to plan and prepare ahead of your trip.
'Skippers should also ensure everyone on board is either wearing or has appropriate life-jackets in the right sizes within reach,' Mr Glenn said.
'If you're in a small boat (under 4.8 metres long), you must wear a life-jacket at night, when off-shore, or when you're alone. This will be especially important to remember while watching the Fleet Review.
'Alarmingly, over the past decade, nine out of every 10 people who have drowned while boating in NSW, were not wearing a life-jacket and typically they were in a small vessel,' Mr Glenn said.
Media contact: (02) 8202 3760
'There is a common misconception out there that life-jackets are too bulky and stop your enjoyment on the water.
'This is absolutely not true. The new generation life-jackets on the market are affordable, comfortable and available in different styles to suit the individual and the activity,' Mr Glenn said.
'Life-jacket laws changed in 2010 and there is now zero tolerance for boaters not observing life-jacket laws.
'Just like sunscreen in summer, boaters need to understand life-jackets save lives,' Mr Glenn said.
'I implore people everywhere to act responsibly this boating season and get in the habit of putting on a life-jacket each time you're on the water, especially in small boats. It might just save your life.'
Top Boating Tips For The International Fleet Review
On Thursday, October 3rd, skippers need to ensure they navigate no closer than 50 metres from the bow, sides and stern of the tall ships as they enter Sydney Harbour from 11am to 2pm.
On Friday, October 4th, skippers need to ensure they navigate no closer than 200 metres ahead and 60 metres from the sides or stern of each warship when the fleet enters Sydney Harbour from 6am to 6pm.
On Saturday, October 5th exclusion zones will be operating from Bradleys Head in the east to Cockatoo Island in the west and marked by buoys from 10.30am to 2.30pm for the Governor General's official fleet review ceremony and then from 6.30pm to 9pm for the fireworks and light show.
Skippers need to ensure they travel at no more than six knots in the event area - equivalent to a fast jog.
All boaters should have a life jacket in the right size within reach, depending on requirements - even better, put it on.
Roads and Maritime Services will have more than 30 boating safety officers and patrol boats out on Sydney Harbour for the week of events, escorting official vessels and reminding skippers of safety arrangements.

The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga women's basketball team is in a familiar place this season – defending its Southern Conference crown. The defense starts with a strong home schedule, a tournament in the Pacific and a slightly shortened Southern Conference lineup.
Chattanooga fans will get a first look at the Lady Mocs against Lee University in early November. The Lady Flames will be making their debut as a Division II school, moving up from NAIA.
SEC Foes: 'Bama, UT ... The Lady Mocs will host Alabama, the first of three SEC foes on the schedule, in the home opener on November 8. From their UTC will drive up the road to take on the SEC Tournament Champion Tennessee in a Thursday night matchup on November 14.The Lady Mocs claimed their first DI win over UTK last season at the Roundhouse with an 80-71 win.
UTC will return to the McKenzie Arena to host Belmont, UAB and Auburn over an eight-day period before heading out to take on Missouri, Colorado State and the University of Hawaii in the Ala Moana Classic in Honolulu. The Lady Mocs won the tournament in 2006 and Alex Anderson was named tournament MVP.
After returning to the mainland, the Lady Mocs will remain on the road through December taking on non-conference foes Jacksonville State (12/10), Austin Peay (12/18) and East Tennessee State (12/21). The Bucs will be returning to the Southern Conference next season after departing the league in 2005. Chattanooga will open the SoCon season on the road at UNCG on December 14 followed by its last trip to Elon on December 16.
The New Year will bring the Lady Mocs back home to the Roundhouse which saw a renovation of the lower bowl seating over the summer break. Georgia Southern and Davidson will make their final visit to Chattanooga as a Southern Conference school with each departing at the end of the school year. UTC will next travel to North Carolina to take on Western Carolina and another departing SoCon school, Appalachian State.
A three-game home stand with Wofford, Furman and Samford will fill out the remainder of January. The Lady Mocs will take on the Wildcats and Eagles at the start of February followed by home contests against the Mountaineers and Catamounts. The final road trip of the season begins at Furman followed by Wofford and Samford before closing out the regular season at home against the Spartans and Phoenix in early March.
SoCon Tourney in Asheville: Chattanooga will join the rest of the league in Asheville, N.C., in defense of its Southern Conference Tournament crown March 7-10. The first two days of the women's tournament will be held on the UNC Asheville campus at Kimmel Arena while the semifinals and final will be moved to the Asheville Civic Center.
From the top down, the Lady Mocs will have a new look despite returning 10 members of the 2013 Southern Conference championship team that posted a 29-4 overall mark, matching a school record for wins, and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the ninth time in 13 years.
New Coach: Jim Foster, a 2013 Women's Basketball Hall of Fame inductee, replaces long-time head coach Wes Moore at the helm. Through 35 years at three different Division I schools, Foster has an overall record of 783-307 and is ranked 11th all-time in victories. He is the only coach to lead three different DI schools to more than 200 wins. (St. Joseph's – 248-126; Vanderbilt – 256-99; Ohio State – 279-82). Foster is currently serving his fourth term on the selection committee for USA Basketball and is the Chair of the U19 National Team.
Joining Southern Conference Tournament MVP Ashlen Dewart (Spartanburg, S.C.), All-Conference selection Taylor Hall (New Tazewell, Tenn.), All-Freshman Team member Tatianna Jackson (Atlanta, Ga.) will be six freshmen. Moses Johnson (Greenforest-McCalep Christian Academy), Whitney Hartlage (Mercy Academy) and Chelsey Shumpert (Tilghman High School) will provide depth at the guard position depleted by the graduation of seniors Kayla Christopher and Kylie Lambert. Aryanna Gilbert of Columbia Central and Southhaven High School's Jasmine Joyner will add to the depth in the blocks while Ansley Chilton of Dade County will redshirt the season.
Also returning for Chattanooga will be all-tournament point guard Alex Black (Memphis, Tenn.) along with fellow senior guard Meghan Downes (Newnan, Ga.) and posts Faith Dupree (Knoxville, Tenn.) and Destiny Bramblett (Radcliff, Ky.). Juniors Kayla Freeman (Carlton, Ga.) and Ka'Vonne Towns (Lilburn, Ga.) along with sophomore point guard Alicia "Red" Payne (Memphis, Tenn.).
Larry Ward, Director of Broadcasting for the Chattanooga Lookouts, will begin his 13th season as the "Voice of the Lady Mocs". All games will be carried on the Mocs flagship station ESPN Radio 105.1 FM unless otherwise noted.
The College of Charleston departed the Southern Conference this season for the Colonial Athletic Association leaving the Southern Conference with 10 women's teams and an 18-game league slate. Davidson and Elon will join the Cougars in the CAA following this season while Georgia Southern and Appalachian State will be moving to the Sun Belt Conference in 2014-15.
Season tickets are on sale now at GoMocs.com and the McKenzie Arena box office. New for the 2013-14 season: women's basketball season ticket holders will now be able to access reserved seating and parking. Contact the ticket office for more information at 423-266-MOCS (6627).

Great cruise with fab sun down views of Toronto, staff very friendly , DJ was great, food was very good and plentiful!
It was a little difficult to find the dock but once there it was a really lovely evening. The food was good and plentiful as well as a really good variety to suit all tastes and although we didn't go up on the deck to dance but we could hear and see that people were enjoying themselves. We particularly enjoyed the sightseeing from the boat as it meandered around the islands and seeing Toronto light up as the sun went down was. A trip to remember. Recommended
Prefer go with big company,pure DJ music
Loved this cruise
Beautiful evening. Plenty of good food, attentive service, great music. Perfect weather capped it off.
It was my first time on this cruise. My date and I enjoyed the cruise. Meal was good, desert was excellent. Ship's staff was great. Pleasant and helpful. Enjoyed the music and dancing. Night scenery was awesome. Only complaint really is that it was too short.
Was not what I was hoping it would be. The servers only seemed interested in serving the larger groups, DJ did not play my request seemed to only play what she wanted to hear herself, overheard bartender ask if my table paid our liquor bill which I found very offensive - of course I paid it, these things contributed to a blah evening. Scenery was beautiful is all I can say positive.

Saroja lives in a village with her parents, aunt and beautiful elder sister Lalitha. Saroja's life is uncomplicated, and simple things give her joy like the birth of a calf or a taste of one of Chingleput's sweets. Lalitha, on the other hand, believes she is too good for the village. Ambitious and spoilt, she has dreams of being a movie star that are fulfilled when a film-maker casts her in his documentary on village life. Overnight Lalitha becomes the talk of the town; her latent sexuality manifests itself and she uses her elevated status to her advantage. Basking in Lalitha's reflected glory Saroja tries to imitate her womanly wiles, which results in confused ideas about sexuality and ambition. But when the family is faced with a scandal, Saroja emerges with a practical outlook on life.

'Annie Zaidi tells these stories from different parts of India with compassion, detail and importantly, with a gentle humour.The reports and conversations are very well spaced. Often,the very funny conversations, which so well capture the flavour of non metro India, set you up for a tale of sudden brutality.The stories on dalits in the Punjab easily rank amongst the best done on the subject. This author sketches the personality of her subjects with warmth and sympathy and humour,but minus the cliches that often make such stories a heavy read.The stories span a massive range from little bus and road journeys with engaging portraits, to child hunger, debt, bondage, untouchability, religious tension and conflict and crimes against women. Above all, it is the quality of the story-telling that grips you.
Those Small Lil Things In Life And Love

Raj, a young architect, who is a huge film buff and believes that life, is full of filmy angles'. He hates his job and has an almost evil boss. He has a shoddy love life, is heart broken and feels that he is the loneliest person on the face of this earth.It's a story connecting all those small little incidents in one's life that one never forgets.It's a journey through growing up. A journey from love, to out of it. Through joy, sadness and anger. About childhood friendship blooming into love. About the one you love not loving you back. About friends making each other happy, and about friends making each other sad - about friends fighting. It's about being completely sure about things, and at the same time, being utterly unsure about them. It's about school, college and professional life. It's a lot about the heart, and its desires.It's a story about finding it tough to adjust at times, and then missing it later when they are over.'

BREXIT was this crisis' "Bear Stearns" moment. You don't want to wait until the "Lehman moment" hits to prepare.
Conspiracy Theories Debunked ...
Take a wild guess...
If yesterday it was JPM's turn to shock and awe everyone with its adoption of FVA and impress with its non-GAAP revenues, today it is the turn of Bank of America to confuse everyone with its traditionally indecipherable earnings release. So here is the punchline. BAC reported revenues of $21.7 billion which beat expectations of $21.14 billion, although more importantly EPS of $0.29 vs expectations of $0.27. So how did BAC generate the better than expected top and bottom line? Simple - the top line beat was driven by the bank's return to an aggressive extraction of non-income income from loan-loss reserve releases, which in the current quarter rose to $1.246 billion, up from $900 million a year ago. Considering the Bank had non-GAAP pretax income of $3.8 billion, this amount to just about a third of its earnings. Additionally, the company paid only $406 million in reported taxes on pretax income of $3.845 billion, or a 10.6% effective tax rate. How does this compare to the historic average of 25%? Obviously, it's much lower. In fact, if BAC had used its historic tax rate of 25%, the EPS "beat" of $0.29 would have become a $0.25 miss. But all is fair in sellside analyst love and making up non-GAAP numbers.
"For the first time this quarter, we were able to clearly observe the existence of funding costs in market clearing levels" - JPM
Non-GAAP EPS, sure. But non-GAAP revenues? Up until today one would think that kind of accounting gimmickry is solely reserved for the profitless one-hit wonders of the world, i.e. Tesla, but moments ago we just saw JPM report two sets of revenues: one which was the firm's GAAP revenue, and which was $23.156 billion, and another, far higher number, which was $24.112 billion which JPM described as revenue on a "managed basis" or also known as non-GAAP, and largely made up as they go along. So continuing with the other fudges, JPM also reported Net Income of $5.3 billion, or EPS of $1.30, once again on a pseudo-GAAP basis. However, this wouldn't be JPM if it didn't have a boat load of adjustments, and sure enough it did as per the waterfall schedule below. As can be seen, the biggest benefit aside from the $0.32 DVA & FVA (yes, blowing out your CDS is profitable once more), was the $0.27 in litigation charges. Of course, for these to be an addback, they have to be non-recurring instead of repeated, guaranteed every quarter, but once again, who cares. And since we choose to stick with GAAP, the bottom line is that JPM revenues dropped from $23.7 billion in Q4 2012 to $23.2 billion this quarter, while EPS dropped from $1.39 to $1.31. Oh, and yes: for the purists, here is the bottom line: of that $5.3 billion in "earnings", $1.3 billion or double the expected (at least from Barclays) $616MM, came from loan loss reserve releases. Accounting magic wins again.
Here is a summary of the key stock additions, sales, initiations and liquidations conducted by the most prominent US hedge funds in the third quarter.
First we had JPM confirming what we all knew about the third quarter: it was a disaster for anyone who originates mortgages, whose balance sheet relies on Net Interest Margin, and whose income statement is dependent on trading volumes. Now, it is Citi's turn. Moments ago the bank reported uberadjusted EPS of $1.02 missing expectations of $1.04, unchanged from a year ago, and revenues, ex CVA/DVA, of $18.2 billion, down 5% from Q3 2012, and missing expectations $18.71 billion, by over $500 million. Citi EPS also included the now traditional fudge factor of $675MM in loan loss reserve releases, although well below the $1.502BN from a year ago, offset by $204MM in benefit and claims provisions and some $635MM in incremental mortgage charge offs.
About an hour ago, Bank of America served the latest indication that the US housing "recovery" (also known as the fourth consecutive dead cat bounce of the cheap credit policy-driven housing market in the past five years) may be on its last breath. Namely, the bank announced that it will eliminate about 2,100 jobs and shutter 16 mortgage offices as rising interest rates weaken loan demand, said two people with direct knowledge of the plans and reported by Bloomberg. In some ways this may be non-news: previously we reported, using a Goldman analysis, that up to 60% of all home purchases in recent months have been, which of course shows just how hollow the "recovery" has been for the common American for whom the average home has once again become unaffordable. However, judging by an update presentation given earlier today by the CFO of none other than JP "fortress balance sheet" Morgan, things are rapidly going from bad to worse for the banking industry as a result of the souring mortgage market for which, absent prop trading, loan origination is the primary bread and butter.

Postcards from the Windy City - Doing Summer
Fri, Aug 16th, 2013
Posted in All Columnists
Posted in All Columnists
Hi, Readers.
Well, we're reaching the point in the summer when even the most nonchalant among us will soon be forced to reckon with The Question: what have you done this summer?
For some I know, this question doesn't seem to cause much stress. Like I said, nonchalant. It's all cool. So they've worked or finished their one big project, or maybe went on vacation. They've hung out with friends. For adults not involved in the school year-cycle, maybe summer's been the same routine, peppered with bike trips or barbecues. Summer equals more time, more sunshine, more freedom, right? All the better to kick back and relax, right?
Wrong. There are things to be done. I'm making my list and checking it twice. And even if, for all practical purposes, I agree with the rest of the world that summer should be a break, or at least a change in routine, I don't quite feel that my summer has started right unless I break out a fresh piece of paper and create the To Do List. (Usually accompanied by its sister, the Summer Reading List.)
So I do not fall into the "casual careless" category of responses when it comes to end-of-summer story swaps. But I'm also not in with those few who not only made to-do lists, but have felt the satisfaction of checking off at least half of the items on said lists. No, I am among those who decided, a few days into July, that the list was never realistic anyway. So I scrapped a few items, trimmed it down. Which turned into a rolling process of trimming and adding. Auto-response to The Question: start a new list of things actually accomplished...
One item on my list to do this summer was finally accomplished on my second-to-last weekend in Chicago: I visited a college friend at her home about an hour north of where I am. We talked, played with her dog, went shopping. Nothing spectacular, which was perfect. A day-long break from my Internet connectivity and schedule, invested in long hours talking about books, life, whatever. Fun to see my friend, and a good reminder that "rest" perhaps should have been on my summer list, as well.
But then, the items on my list are a bit more vague than those of some people I know. My to-dos included going to Chicago, writing this column, and reading. Both my mom and host mom outlined more practical projects to be done this summer—yard work and home improvement items topping their lists. Some summer lists, or at least things to-be-done, are given to us. Honey-do lists or summer homework isn't exactly the most thrilling, but there's outside pressure. Real consequences are (potentially) involved.
Still, special things go on a summer list. Kind of like a New Year's resolution, but more concrete and (supposedly) not as long-term. I can't vouch for everyone, of course, but summer seems to be a time to not only get stuff done that just didn't happen the previous fall/winter/spring, but also to explore, try new things, or even a time to just rest.
My favorite items to check off my summer To Do mostly revolved around people and places: a short camping trip, catching up with my friend this weekend, learning to work with new people in the new setting of my internship. Writing about some of those places in this column.
So, friends, summer's winding away. By the time you can read this online, I'll be nearly done with my internship, and by the time you read it in print, I'll be back in Fillmore County. Here's to last opportunities to accomplish, to improve, and—perhaps most importantly—just to enjoy.

Quebec's sovereignty movement is pleased as punch by what happened in last week's Brexit vote but is choosing to retain what it wants from the result while glossing over the rest.
St-Lazare is heading into a fall by-election following the resignation of district 4 councillor Denis Briard, who awaits the completion of an unspecified investigation by Quebec's municipal affairs department.
Notre-Dame-de-l'Île-Perrot town council is requesting the Vaudreuil-Soulanges MRC okays the use of designated agricultural lots to develop a couple of zones to better service its residents. Earlier this month, council officially requested the MRC modify a regional development plan to demarcate and recognize two strips of land located near Don Quichotte Blvd. Recognition of these lots would […]
The Latest on Britain's referendum on whether to leave the European Union (all times local):
Notre-Dame-de-l'Île-Perrot town council is backing local farmers and woodlot owners who have voiced their opposition to clauses within a regional development plan dealing with forest corridors. Last week, town council tabled a resolution objecting to provisions in the Plan métropolitain d'aménagement et de développement (PMAD), which had been prepared by the Communauté métropolitaine de Montréal […]
The project cost overrun is more dramatic than the $42.4-million over-all price tag suggests
Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre announced new pit bulls will be banned from the city and existing dogs will have to be sterilized and muzzled.
The race to replace former PQ leader Pierre Karl Péladeau continues, but a new poll shows Quebecers are barely paying attention.
With Esteban Torres to appear in a Montreal courtroom Friday, Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard has downplayed an incident in which he was accosted at an Orlando vigil.
"It's clearly a much softer approach," Lisée says of his cultural concordance, "an approach that integrates some of the legitimate criticism that was voiced last time around"
The city is paying double the going price of granite within a $3.45-million contract to install statues that resemble tree stumps on Mount Royal for Montreal's 375th anniversary next year.
"It's a signature project," Coderre said. "It's art. So of course it's subjective. Of course you will have some people that are in favour or against it."
Montreal is presenting its $3.45-million granite sculptures as a project that will link the three summits of Mount Royal for the city's 375th anniversary. However, one of those summits – in Westmount – will not be furnished with the pieces, which are otherwise planned for spots all around the mountain.
Experts on historic landscapes reject Montreal's plan for granite "stumps" on Mount Royal as a misguided intrusion on a landscape that was intended to appear natural.
Former Treasury Board president Sam Hamad "was more than imprudent" and "abusively lobbied" in favour of financial support for the Premier Tech environmental firm, but will not be sanctioned for his behaviour.
Projet Montréal leader Luc Ferrandez cites "troubling events" that give him reason to believe Coderre has overstepped his jurisdiction.
CAQ leader François Legault made the statement following an announcement from the province's chief electoral officer.
Montreal Mayor Denis Coderre dismissed out of hand on Monday, the concerns of contractors and construction unions who could see hundreds of millions of dollars of their work transferred to municipalities. The transfer of renovation work and changes to municipal buildings is planned in a broader bill that is currently under consideration in the National Assembly. About 7,500 employees in […]
The Parti Québécois is now up to five candidates running for the leadership and the last one in, Paul St-Pierre Plamondon, is the most unusual of the batch. A former federalist, he had been critical of the PQ and said it has lost its way. He wants to focus on good government first, referendums later.
If a minimum of 82 eligible voters sign a public register against a $1.8-million borrowing bylaw to build a new town hall in Senneville, then council will have to either drop the item or call a referendum. The register will be open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 1, at town hall, 35 […]

The SMSF Awards, an initiative of SMSF Adviser, create a benchmark for success in the ever-growing SMSF sector.
According to Terry Braithwaite, associate publisher of SMSF Adviser, securing a coveted SMSF Award is a milestone for any business and confirms its level of commitment to the sector.
"With over one million SMSF members now controlling more than $550 billion in assets, SMSF service providers play an essential role in growing this burgeoning sector of Australia's financial services industry," Mr Braithwaite said.
"These awards are based on experiences and insights from a variety of SMSF practitioners and recognise those companies that are delivering exceptional service and setting a benchmark for excellence in this sector," he added.
Institutions across the country were assessed within a range of categories, including technical support, reliability and ease of doing business.
Global financial powerhouses through to small, specialised organisations won recognition across 13 award categories.
To determine the winners of this year's SMSF Awards, SMSF Adviser sent a carefully constructed survey to its database of SMSF professionals. This year, the survey attracted 1,063 participants.
To construct the survey, SMSF Adviser worked with an advisory board comprising seven leading client-facing SMSF practitioners.
The research methodology was designed, managed and assessed by Sterling Publishing's in-house research team.
SMSF Adviser would like to congratulate this year's winners:
- SMSF Deed Provider: NowInfinity
- SMSF Software Provider: Class Super
- Actuarial Certificate Provider: Accurium
- SMSF Audit Provider: ASF Audits

1. Marlboro Cup (1973-1987) It may have been
short-lived, but during its' fifteen year run at Belmont Park in the 70's and 80's, there was
no better race run in America than the Marlboro Cup. Its roll call of runners
reads like a who's who of dirt racing beginning with the inaugural edition when
Secretariat defeated his older stablemate, Riva Ridge, in track record time.
2. Flamingo Stakes (1926-2001) Named after the
famous colony of pink flamingos ever present at historic Hialeah Park, the
Flamingo Stakes was as important as any of the Kentucky Derby preps. The nine
furlong affair not only hosted greats like Citation, Northern Dancer, and
Seattle Slew but also provided an oasis from the winter doldrums with its
unique beauty.
3. Washington D.C. International (1952-1994)
From Kelso to Dahlia and before the Breeders' Cup came along, no turf race was more important in
American racing than this late-season 12 furlong race held at Laurel Park. But
it was more than that, it was also America's most international race, playing
host to top grass horses from all over the world on a yearly basis.
4. Meadowlands Cup (1977-2010) Another late-season race that had difficulty
maintaining its momentum after the unveiling of the Breeders' Cup, the
Meadowlands Cup quickly became an important supplement to the key handicap
races of the fall in New York. With winners like Spectacular Bid, Wild Again,
and Alysheba, the importance of the first dozen years or so of the Meadowlands
Cup should not be undersestimated. I do not recognize the new Monmouth Cup as
the same race.
5. Massachusetts
Handicap (1935-2008) With early winners such as
Seabiscuit, Whirlaway, and Stymie, the Mass 'Cap was clearly a key spot for the
top handicap horses on the East Coast during some of the golden years of
racing. Despite some lean years, host track Suffolk fought to bring back the
big race back to prominence, and with horses like Lost Code, Waquoit, Cigar,
and Skip Away they succeeded to some extent, but it has not been run since
Honorable Mention: Michigan
Mile and One Eighth, Garden State Stakes, Everglade
Stakes, Widener Handicap, and the Young America Stakes.
ZATT's Star of the Week
Meet Brian Zipse
Brian has been a passionate fan of horse racing since birth. Taken to the races at a very young age, he has been lucky enough to see all the greats in person from Secretariat, Forego, and Ruffian through Rachel Alexandra, Zenyatta, and American Pharoah.
Before coming to the Nation, Brian displayed his love for the sport through the development of his horse racing website, which quickly became one of the most popular blogs in the game. As Editor of Horse Racing Nation, Brian authors a daily column as Zipse at the Track, or ZATT for short, and adds his editorial flare to the overall content of the website. Brian also consults for leading contest site Derby Wars, and is a Vox Populi committee member. A graduate of DePaul University, Brian lives just outside of Louisville with his wife Candice and daughter Kendra.
