The current economic climate has created a need for credit unions to review their member business-lending credit process. With increased scrutiny and monitoring of member business lending, this is an ideal time to revisit the credit culture to ensure alignment with the strategic vision of the credit union. This webinar will address the significance of credit culture as it relates to effective loan portfolio management. Several critical factors will be reviewed during this session, including the role of credit culture and current findings from loan review and examination reports.
This informative session is designed for senior credit officers, chief credit officers, commercial loan officers, and credit administration personnel.

|Martin's Conjecture and Borel Equivalence Relations
|Logic Seminar
|Jan Reimann, Pennsylvania State University
|An equivalence relation on a Polish space X is Borel if it is a Borel subset of the product space X x X. The theory of Borel equivalence relations has been the subject of intense studies over the past two decades. In a remarkable confluence of methods from descriptive set theory, ergodic theory, operator algebras, and other areas, researchers have successfully classified many equivalence relations. Yet most equivalence relations arising from computability theoretic reducibilities have so far resisted complete classification. One reason for this may be seen in the fact that the classification of such equivalence relations is tied to a deep problem in computability theory, Martin's Conjecture on degree invariant functions. The talk will give a brief introduction to the classification of Borel equivalence relations, indicate how they are tied to Martin's Conjecture, and present some recent progress on the classification of several computability theoretic equivalence relations.

AOD Recruiting server review
This server uses DC Mod (Like the newbs they are) and is saber only no force.
AOD enforces "laming rules" but are not fanatical about it like some servers and also are very fair in the enforcement. They hold their members to the same stupid RPG rules as everyone else. Fighting is not permitted outside of FFA Private Duels. ZzzZZzzz. After a few saber duels and standing around for awhile I finally got so bored that I left. I rejoined a few days later and decided to join their clan to complete this review. Their rules for members are pretty insane. You have to go through this big process when you finally get let in where the person has a doc they have to follow. You have to use or download xfire, and you must log into ventrillo with a certain tag. If the tag is even one small bit wrong they force you to change it. Furthermore, clan members MUST be on ventrillo anytime they are on the server.
1-5 stars
Skill Level - The fact that they only thing they work on getting good at also happens to be the easiest thing in the whole game makes them newbies. The sad truth is that they aren't even very good at that either. Score - *
Fun - If you like standing around for hours with the occasional slow paced saber duel, you'll love it. Score - *
RPG Level - These guys are total RPG. Their ranks are stuff like "Jedi Council" and what not. I think that the higher ranks boss the lower ranks around. I think the leader pretends to be yoda. You have to bow before duels, and you're not allowed to kill someone if they are knocked down because it violates their RPG jedi honor code
Score - *****
Server Speed - Server seems top rate
Score - *****
Settings - They use one of those mad buggy newb mods. DC mod is a joke. It was made by some complete newbie. The setting changes are hilarious. This server removes fall damage (LoL) and makes the regen 0.

Mitel Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2013 Financial Results
Record Gross Margin of 56.2% in the Second Quarter
OTTAWA, Nov. 29, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mitel® (Nasdaq:MITL) (TSX:MNW), a leading provider of cloud and premises-based unified communications and collaboration (UCC) solutions, today announced financial results for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 ended October 31, 2012. All financial results are in U.S. dollars.
"In the second quarter we exceeded our guidance across all metrics and achieved record overall gross margin of 56.2%, despite a challenging macroeconomic environment," said Richard McBee, Chief Executive Officer, Mitel. "We saw solid revenue growth of 5% sequentially in our business which was attributable to our disciplined execution across the entire company, continued improvements on our channel-focused sales model and product leadership in virtualization and cloud offerings."
Fiscal Second Quarter 2013 Financial Highlights
- Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was $24.1 million or 16.6%, up from $21.4 million or 13.8% from the prior year quarter.
- Non-GAAP net income from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was $14.2 million, or $0.25 per share, up from $12.6 million, or $0.23 per share, in the same period last year.
- Net loss from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was $1.6 million, or $0.03 per share, diluted, compared to a net loss from continuing operations of $1.7 million, or $0.03 per share, diluted, in the same period last year.
- Revenue from continuing operations for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 was $145.5 million, compared to $154.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012.
- Gross margins from continuing operations were 56.2%, up from 53.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2012.
- Cash and cash equivalents as of October 31, 2012 were $87.4 million.
- Operating cash flows for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 were $16.7 million.
- In August 2012, in response to macroeconomic concerns, we implemented a restructuring plan that included the termination of approximately 200 employees as well as the closure of excess facilities. We recorded a charge of $9.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2013 relating to these actions.
"We are pleased with our operating results this quarter, which was driven by solid execution of our business model and our ability to expand our gross margins and proactively manage our cost structure despite the challenging macroeconomic environment," said Steve Spooner, Chief Financial Officer, Mitel. "While we continue to remain cautious in our forecast, our results this quarter reinforce our confidence in our business model."
Given that the company has previously announced the proposed sale of DataNet/CommSource, the results of the business unit are presented as discontinued operations, and prior period amounts have been adjusted accordingly.
Please refer to the GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation tables in this release and a discussion of the use of non-GAAP measures under the heading, "Non-GAAP Financial Measurements" below.
Business Unit Results
- Mitel Communications Solutions revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 were $122.0 million, compared to $129.4 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. Operating margin improved by 3% year over year primarily as a result of record gross margin in the business unit.
- Mitel NetSolutions revenues for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 grew 2% to $20.9 million from the same quarter of 2012. Operating margin was consistent with the prior year's quarter.
Business Highlights
More than 100% year-over-year growth in Mitel cloud customer base including service provider customers enabled by Mitel cloud solutions, customers deploying Mitel solutions in private clouds, and end-customers deploying Mitel AnyWare.
Several enhancements to Mitel's cloud offerings including the Mitel AnyWare Cloud Communications Service with advanced contact center functionality, multi-vendor CRM integration, and cloud-based video telepresence and collaboration.
- Continued strengthening of Mitel strategic channel development including:
-- A new distribution agreement with Tech Data Corporation, one of the world's largest wholesale distributors of technology products, further strengthening Mitel's position in the U.S.
-- Addition of virtualization specialist Entisys Solutions as a strategic Mitel Channel Partner, expanding the reach of Mitel's UCC solutions to customers in California.

Hero: Pakistan schoolboy, 14, sacrifices life to save classmates from suicide bomber
A 14-year-old Pakistani boy was killed preventing a suicide bomber from entering his school, officials said.
Aitazaz Hassan Bangash, a ninth grader at Ibrahimzai School in the Hangu district of northern Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, was making his way to school Monday with his cousin when they were approached by another teen who asked where the school was, CNN reported.
Aitazaz and his cousin, Musadiq Ali Bangash, became suspicious, Musadiq told CNN.
"The other students backed off, but Aitazaz challenged the bomber and tried to catch him. During the scuffle, the bomber panicked and detonated his bomb," he said.
Aitazaz and the bomber were killed and two other students were injured by the blast, witnesses said.
Aitazaz is being called a hero for his actions. Had the bomber entered the school, the casualties would have been much higher as students were gathered for a morning assembly, CNN said.
"It was a great sacrifice to save the lives of hundreds of both Shi[ite] and Sunni students, who were in morning assembly," Musadiq said.
Some local residents have called for Aitazaz to receive a posthumous award, CNN said.
"He saved the lives of hundreds of students. He deserves more recognition than Malala Yousafzai," said Nawaz Khan, who lives in the area, referencing the Pakistani teenager who was shot in the head by the Taliban in 2012 for promoting equal education for boys and girls.

Like any ironically famous and widely despised human, Patricia "Tan Mom" Krentcil has released her first dance single!
Krentcil tanned her way to infamy when she was arrested for sneaking her daughter into a tanning booth. She soon became America's favorite meme:
The aptly titled single "It's Tan Mom!" (and you'll hear that exclamation mark throughout) is a shameless celebration of tanorexia, a warning to haters, and a rebellious personal theme song. We're getting definite "Money Can't Buy You Class" vibes, and can only assume it'll be burning up the charts in no time.
Give it a listen, and peep our analysis if any of it is unclear to you.
NOTE: Krentcil's diction may have impeded parts of the lyrical transcription.
It's Tan Mom…BITCH.
(Are you ready)
It's Patricia…BITCH
(And here I come)
I've got a message to use protection from the sun…ha ha ha ha!
Right off the bat, we get a real sense of tone. She's defiant and on the offense; this is definitely a threat. For a fleeting moment, we think this is the skin protection dance anthem we've long been dreaming of! With a heartless cackle, we realize our naïveté.
I wanna get get GET my tan on
(They all are losers)
I'm sexier than the Teen Mom
(I am cool. I'm the cool one)
I'm hotter than the Octomom
(The world can't judge me now)
So I want you to back away
Get away from me every day
Is there only one Teen Mom? Krentcil sure seems to think so in this direct attack against all famous "____ Moms." In this verse, Tan Mom theorizes that being sexier and hotter than said Moms renders her free from universal judgment. Both descriptors are subjective, so we question the logic of her theory.
Earlier, we were warned that she was approaching us; now we're being told to back away. Tan Mom is messing with our minds and our expectations, forcing us to keep listening for our own safety.
My name is Tan Mom
Tanning is the mall
That I'll be in
Not a tanning booth
But outside with the birds
No, that doesn't work
Forget the birds…CUT
Tan mom.
It's tan mom.
Tan mom.
I'm the cool one.
The chorus is a brilliant mind fuck. She tells us she'll be at the mall. Then she tells us she won't be. Then she, again, leaves her location up to chance. Even the birds aren't safe anymore. She transitions back into the chorus reminding us exactly who she is: The Heisenberg of Tanning.
Use the SPF
For a handful of sun
Let's party
All pose at the beach
Drop my cup
Down down down down.
Mazel Tov
What? Now we're invited to a party with her? Using sunscreen? I'm feeling weird, guys, and it's not just because of the shoutout to the Black Eyed Peas' Jewiest moment. Oy gevalt.
Where do you want
I'll give you a treat
To see my goodies brown
I wanna get get get get my tan on
*Fumbles for rape whistle.*
I'm gonna try to chase my worries away
Forget the worry and sorrow
Gonna burn no more in the flame
Don't judge me, don't make a deal
Don't make a deal because I am saying it to you
I'm saying it to you
Let it be the way it is
Because it's Tan Mom…BITCH!
Here, we get a glimpse of the woman behind the sun-saturated flesh. At the heart of it, Tan Mom is worried and sad. With a beautiful juxtaposition of the "burn" one feels under the scrutiny of the media to the "burn" she daily subjects herself to, she begs haters to cease fire. But not without a scorching jab to let us know who's really in charge.

Nov. 9, 1999
Sun Devil Women vs UCLA - Nov. 12, 1999 - 2:00 p.m.
Sun Devil Men and Women vs USC - Nov. 13, 1999 - 11:00 a.m.
Busy Weekend Ahead
The Arizona State women's swimming team hosts two Pac-10 foes this weekend, beginning with a dual meet against UCLA at the Mona Plummer Aquatic Center on Friday, Nov. 12 at 2:00 p.m. Simultaneously, the Sun Devil men and women will stage exhibition meets against the California All-Stars, who feature a number of elite-level junior swimmers. The following day, both ASU squads take on their respective counterparts from USC at 11:00 a.m. (note time change from 1:00 p.m.). Arizona State's diving teams will compete against UCLA and USC during a two-day event in Tucson this weekend, and have their results factored into the dual meet scores.
Note the Format
Both meets this weekend will be contested in short course meters in preparation for the NCAA Championships, which will also be held using this format.
Poll Position
All teams in action this weekend at the Mona Plummer Center are nationally ranked. The Arizona State men's and women's teams are ranked 14th and 21st, respectively, in the current College Swimming Coaches Association poll. UCLA, which does not field a men's program, sits at #14. Meanwhile USC's men and women are ranked fifth and fourth, respectively.
Looking Back
The Sun Devils and Bruins squared off in Los Angeles on Nov. 13, 1999, and swam to a rare 150-150 tie. Carolyn Adel led the Sun Devils with victories in the 200 free, 500 free and 200 IM, while diver Trish Malatesta took second in three-meter competition. The ASU women moved across town on Nov. 14 to battle the Trojans and were handed a 178-121 defeat. Arizona State's men's team also fell to the Trojans by a 159-87.5 margin.
ASU Swimming Impresses in Season Opener
The Arizona State men's and women's swimming teams began their 1999-2000 campaigns on the right foot with convincing wins at UNLV on Oct. 30. The Sun Devil men prevailed 214-80 behind the strength of their breaststrokers and relay teams. Junior Otto Hinks (2:08.40) and senior Jon Tunstall (2:08.57) finished one-two in the 200 breast, while the ASU 200 medley relay team opened the meet with a winning time of 1:45.90. Arizona State defeated the Rebels in seven other events, including the 400 freestyle relay (3:01.84). Sophomore Sarah Baham led the charge for the Sun Devil women, who posted a 196-98 victory. She recorded NCAA Championship consideration times in the 100 (55.94) and 200 (2:02.67) butterfly. Among ASU's eight other wins was Adel's 2:04.80 showimg in the 200 IM.
Head Coach Michael Chasson
Currently in his second season at ASU, Michael Chasson is the first head coach in school history to oversee both the men's and women's swim programs. In 1999, Chasson guided both Sun Devil teams to top-25 national finishes. Chasson came to ASU with impressive credentials, having guided the Harvard men's program to six Eastern Seaboard Championships.

Mascherano: We must regain our best form against City
- 12 March 2014 07:58
- Posted by @porter_mcfc
Hola! And welcome to today's Barcelona-themed round-up!
As expected, the City headlines this morning are concerned only with tonight's Champions League clash in the Nou Camp, and everything else can wait until tomorrow.
The media are refusing to write off the Blues quite yet, and Manuel Pellegrini's men certainly don't believe they are beaten. You can hear from Vincent Kompany at the pre-match press conference here, plus read previews from Samir Nasri and Joe Hart.
Of course, the opposition are also confident ahead of tonight's game, and Javier Mascherano has responded to unfavourable reports in Spain about Barcelona's recent performances.
The Telegraph quote him as saying: "Let us get to May. Wait before you kill us, don't kill us yet.
"At the beginning of the season, when you are working and imagining how it will develop, you dream of being in finals and fighting for the league.
"Right now, it is March and we have two months to end the season by doing something special.
"Now is the time to press the accelerator and achieve our objectives.
He added: "We know we cannot play as we did against Valladolid [against City], but we can get back to winning and our best form and tomorrow is a good chance to do that."
If you haven't seen the Spanish papers (I'm guessing there's quite a few of us out there that don't make them part of our daily reading), the Metro has a handy explanation.
The report reads: "While City head into the second leg on the back of the shock FA Cup exit at the hands of Wigan on Sunday, Barca are undergoing something of a crisis themselves.
"For so long lauded as the undisputed kings of European football, there is currently an air of vulnerability surrounding Gerardo Martino's team.
"The head coach enjoyed a fantastic start to his tenure at the Nou Camp but, with the exception of the first leg against City, things have gone sour since the turn of the year.
"Saturday's 1-0 defeat to struggling Valladolid was their third La Liga loss in six and saw them fall four points behind title rivals Real Madrid. That's simply not good enough for the passionate Catalan press and Martino was forced to answer an uncomfortable interrogation in the pre-match press conference."
One person definitely backing the Blues to take advantage of any perceived dip in form is former City man, Paulo Wanchope.
The Costa Rican's heart appears to still firmly beat to the tune of Blue Moon, as he thinks it would be 'great' if Pellegrini's men can pull it off.
"They (City) are capable," Wanchope told Perform. "They are capable to do it, plus Barcelona are not playing the best football now.
"I mean, they are good players but they are having a little bit of problems and I do think Manchester City can do it.
"I imagine it would be great. If they get through Barcelona I think they can go all the way and win the Champions League."
Well, one game at a time, Paulo, one game at a time!
Finally, the Bleacher Report takes a look at how City might turn around the Catalans' two goal advantage, and Rob Pollard has identified David Silva as the man key to City's hopes.
The Spanish wizard has the trickery and skill to scare any opponent, and Pollard argues that if Barcelona can nullify his influence, they will restrict City's opportunities.
He writes: "His ability to keep possession, no matter how tight the space, is his finest asset. With City needing to see as much of the ball as possible against a side famed for the ability to keep it, that part of his game will be critical on Wednesday.
"Technically excellent and with wonderful intelligence, it's hard to think of a better player to wear the Blues shirt in the last 20 years. With his side up against one of the best teams in the world, his contribution, now more than ever, needs to be telling.
"If Barcelona stop Silva, they will stop City's supply line. If he manages to find the kind of space he needs to pick passes and create angles, who knows? An unlikely result may be on the cards."
Well, that's all for now but kick off is less than 12 hours away…. (Sorry).
Enjoy the game wherever you are in the world, and remember you can join us for all the build up and live coverage on twitter, or our Match Day Centre right here on mcfc.co.uk.

Hornsey electro-rock singer releases single worldwide
15:54 22 August 2011
A singer who fronts an up-and-coming band is delighted with the imminent release of their second single which is now available for download across the world.
Kicking K, the signature track on the single from electro-rock outfit Junkstar is available for download and hit record shops this week.
Singer and guitarist J-C Connington, who lives on South View Road, Hornsey, said: "It feels amazing. After releasing our first single we wanted to continue and produce more music. It's like a drug once you have had a taste for success you just want more"
Junkstar formed after the 27-year-old singer and songwriter placed an appeal for musicians on advertising website Gumtree where he received a response within days.
They have since toured the USA and Holland and performed alongside the likes of Kate Nash and indie sensations The Drums.
Mr Connington spoke of the band's excitement while supporting such big name acts.
He said: "It was great to perform with such famous musicians, especially The Drums as they're huge at the moment and have been on the front cover of NME, so the crowd there was amazing."

Virtue is a habit, and Paul seemed to know that as he wrote to the Church in Philippi, while imprisoned, using himself as an example of a virtuous life in Christ. He was not bragging, but referring to the fact most Christians by that time knew of his exemplary life, how he remained virtuous and faithful through suffering and abuse. Even at a moment when his future life on earth was very much in doubt, he remained stalwart in his mission for Christ.
No wonder then, that the Catechism of the Catholic Church article on The Virtues begins with Paul instructing the Philippians to make a habit of thinking about and doing pure, honorable, virtuous, and praiseworthy things. (Philippians 4:8-9) A virtue is a deliberate habit of doing good. Virtues discussed in the catechism are listed in two groups: human and theological.
The human virtues are those things that guide our choices and steer our actions, and they come under four headings known as 'cardinal virtues.' Prudence is the virtue of right discernment. It is reason that guides and activates the conscience to make a judgment. Prudence leads to justice, which, as a virtue, can best be described as the great commandment: to love God completely and to show that love by the way we care for one another.
Paul also wrote a letter to Philemon, who was a wealthy slave owner and devout Christian living in Colossae. Slave ownership of the day was not seen in the same light as now, but was rather an accepted practice common to all known peoples in ancient times including the new Christians. The direct subject of the letter was a man named Onesimus, a slave who ran away from Philemon and ended up in jail with Paul, probably in Ephesus. It was there that he was converted to Christianity. Tradition has it that Paul sent the slave back to Colossae with his letter to the Church there and the letter to Philemon. Onesimus is believed to have risen in the ranks of the early Church leaders and eventually became the Bishop of Ephesus.
The short letter Paul wrote to Philemon was one of the most eloquent pleas ever credited to the saint. He praised the slave-owner for his commitment to teaching virtue as the way to life in Christ. Letting Philemon know he was pleading to his faithful intellect, Paul asked the man to accept Onesimus back in his household without punishment, and further, that he would acknowledge him as a free man and a Christian brother. Paul was stressing what he had written to the Galatians a few years earlier: there is no Jew or Greek, slave or free, woman or man, but all are one in Christ Jesus. (Galatians 4:28-29) This is the way in which prudence and justice prevail.
The other two cardinal virtues are fortitude and strength, and they mean just what the words say. These are the characteristics of courage, strength, moderation, and self-restraint. Together they aid in deflecting temptation and strengthening the determination to lead a moral life in Christ.
These very deliberate virtues are acquired, as the catechism points out, through education, purposeful acts, and always perseverance. They are enhanced by the graces poured forth from God through the salvation rendered to us by Jesus Christ. Continuing to practice the virtues adds strength onto strength. The catechism is very clear to assure the faithful that they will continue to grow in the grace of God by praying for his light and strength, by celebrating the sacraments frequently, and to hear and listen to the Holy Spirit's guidance to love good and reject evil. (CCC#1811)
It should be a regular part of every Christian's prayer to ask for God's strength and light; this is the way, the truth, and the life in Christ. By frequenting the sacraments, we are of course referring primarily to Reconciliation and Eucharist. Baptized Catholics may receive other sacraments more than once, but for most, it isn't common.
Reconciliation provides the opportunity for the individual to verbally express the human virtues to God through the priest-mediator. The sacrament allows the expression of that which we do, be it good or bad. Most especially, it gives the faithful a comfort and a blessing, and always the forgiveness of God.
The Eucharist is the center of our connection to God as a community of faith. The two-fold purpose of the ecclesiology of the Church is to commune and to spread the Gospel; the first gives the grace to do the second. According to the General Instruction of the Roman Missal #16, supported by The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy #10, this is the summit of life in Christ. Everything either flows from the Eucharist or returns to it.
These are the guides, the deliberate, discerned human thoughts and actions that bring us closer to God. Human virtues lead us to a moral, Christian life, but their roots go even deeper than that. They are directly connected to the theological virtues which govern our relationship with the Holy Trinity.

T.C. Boyle (The Women) makes environmentalism seem as sexy as it is dangerous in When the Killing's Done ($26.95, amazon.com), his latest novel set on the sparsely inhabited Channel Islands off the coast of Santa Barbara. The opening scene is a shipwreck and the riveting storytelling is as much about endangered species as about dangerous relationships. Boyle asks essential questions (Who has the right to possess land? How far should one species go to save another?) that will stay with you long after you've finished reading.

The white Nexus 4 is real, stars in hands-on photo shoot
Well, what do you know? The white version of the LG-made Google Nexus 4 smartphone seems to be real after all. Unless, that is, someone went to a great deal of trouble in faking one. And we're not talking renders here, but live 'hands-on' images.
So considering that no one has that much free time on his or her hands, let's just play along and assume that this is a real thing manufactured by LG. It means it's coming soon, hopefully. It would certainly complement the black version well in the Nexus world.
The images you can see above were obtained by Vietnamese site Tinh te, and there are a lot more where they came from.
As is obvious, the white Nexus 4 is only white on one side – the back. Its front is still very much black. The good news though is that the back, despite being white, keeps that signature glowy dot pattern that the full-black variant has.
Unfortunately, there's no telling when the white Nexus 4 will be on sale just yet, so stay tuned and we'll let you know when we find out more about it. In the meantime, you can simply feast your eyes upon it. Repeatedly even.

- Telephone & Address: 1-800-548-3030; 111 South Chelsea Avenue, Atlantic City, New Jersey, 08401
- Location: Atlantic City, New Jersey
Atlantic City never held the allure of Las Vegas, nor did it ever house the high-society gents who frequented the Monte Carlos of the world. However, if there was ever a true sign that Atlantic City was shifting away from its old clientele, who were best known for haunting the boardwalk with their walkers and colostomy bags, the Chelsea might be it. One of the first non-gaming hotels on the boardwalk, this newly renovated boutique hotel offers a variety of great food, a classy pool/spa area and beach-side service. Perhaps the only drawback to this fully-loaded oasis is that the surrounding desert is, well, Atlantic City.
In the past we've criticized boutique hotels that stress style over service, but the Chelsea never makes that mistake. They cater to their customers, and nowhere is that better seen than on the beach and roof pool, where full waiter service is offered without the pretentious glares. The hotel doesn't have many flaws, but the surrounding area has a long list of them; I wouldn't venture into many parts of Atlantic City without a shotgun and three bottles of Prozac. However, there are big casinos, good restaurants and a younger clientele slowly coming out of the woodwork. With this new crowd, the Chelsea could become the Mecca of the city's new nightlife. Most other hotels in the area lack an understanding of a man's social needs. Jersey's Tony Soprano wannabes might settle for the Borgata's nightclub, but the Chelsea is more of a South Beach transplant on the Jersey coast. Couple that with the hotel's two Stephen Starr restaurants and you might see Atlantic City rid itself of its old reputation as a wasteland of degenerate gamblers and discount prostitutes.
When the Chelsea poured 128 million dollars into renovations a couple of years ago, they spared no expense in the hygiene department. While most hotels provide toilet paper comparable to that used on the Mayflower, the Chelsea supplies Angel Soft Double-Ply -- this it the type of thing you didn't realize you couldn't live without till you tried it. Their attention to detail continues in the rest of the toiletry department, where even a lumberjack could appreciate the complimentary Kiehl's products. Only the higher priced rooms provide bathtubs, but most nights out on the boardwalk really only require a cold shower. Outside the little boy's room, the trendy decor, coupled with a plasma TV and iPod docking station, remind you that you're in a newer establishment. That feeling is echoed throughout the entire hotel: The Stephen Starr restaurant, the chic game room and the opening of a new club this Memorial Day gives an overall feeling of cool -- a tough thing to come by on the Jersey Shore.

IMF Executive Board Concludes 2008 Article IV Consultation with the Republic of CroatiaPublic Information Notice (PIN) No. 08/53
May 16, 2008
Public Information Notices (PINs) form part of the IMF's efforts to promote transparency of the IMF's views and analysis of economic developments and policies. With the consent of the country (or countries) concerned, PINs are issued after Executive Board discussions of Article IV consultations with member countries, of its surveillance of developments at the regional level, of post-program monitoring, and of ex post assessments of member countries with longer-term program engagements. PINs are also issued after Executive Board discussions of general policy matters, unless otherwise decided by the Executive Board in a particular case. The staff report (use the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to view this pdf file) for the 2008 Article IV Consultation with the Republic of Croatia is also available.
On May 9, 2008, the Executive Board of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) concluded the Article IV consultation with the Republic of Croatia.1
Growth accelerated in 2007, but external imbalances continued to increase. Real GDP growth reached 5.6 percent, on the back of strong domestic demand. The latter was also reflected in a widening current account deficit (8.6 percent of GDP), with higher world energy prices contributing as well. External debt reached nearly 88 percent of GDP at end-2007.
Inflation picked up. Because of financial euroization and balance-sheet exposures, the Croatian National Bank (CNB) has maintained the exchange rate in a tight range. Until very recently, this has helped keep inflation between 2 and 4 percent, aided by moderate wage growth. Nevertheless, surging food and utility prices pushed year-on-year headline inflation above 6 percent in early 2008, the highest rate since the early 1990s.
The general government deficit was brought down significantly in recent years, from 6.1 percent of GDP in 2003 to 3 percent in 2006, and to an estimated 2.3 percent in 2007. But with economic growth particularly rapid in 2007, and taking into account off-budget and quasi-fiscal activities not included in the general government accounts, cyclical adjustment implies that the overall fiscal stance was expansionary in 2007.
External competitiveness appears adequate. Despite some gradual real exchange rate appreciation, indicators of price and cost competitiveness vis-à-vis central European peer countries remain benign. Market share of goods exports has been steady and tourism receipts strong. Staff estimates indicate that the real exchange rate is broadly consistent with fundamentals.
The financial sector is healthy, but risks associated with rapid credit growth have been a concern. Banks' capital adequacy and asset quality are at sufficiently comfortable levels to withstand a range of shocks. Though declining, profitability is still high. Nevertheless, significant external imbalances and rising asset prices—and volatility in the case of equities—accompanying credit growth could expose banks to sudden shifts in market sentiment. Banks also face significant interest and exchange rate induced credit risks. The CNB has taken a range of measures aimed at limiting vulnerabilities, including to curb banks' borrowing from abroad and domestic credit expansion.
Although Croatia was not particularly hurt by the global financial turbulence through 2007, stock prices slumped in the early months of 2008. Widening credit default swap spreads suggest concerns with external vulnerabilities, though not to the same extent as for some other countries.
Some progress was made on structural reforms, but Croatia still lags most central and eastern European countries on business environment indicators. In the heavily indebted shipyard sector, reforms were delayed through 2007; recently, the authorities announced plans to start the sale of two shipyards at end-2008. Progress on privatization was mixed: initial public offerings for the oil and telecom companies were successful but the broader privatization process slowed.
The discussions focused on measures aimed at reducing vulnerabilities, ensuring that higher inflation does not become entrenched in expectations, and raising potential growth.
Executive Board Assessment
Executive Directors welcomed Croatia's strong economic growth in recent years, which has generated an appreciable increase in employment. This strong performance has been accompanied by commendable improvements in policies, notably a reduction in the general government deficit since 2003 and a continued strengthening of financial supervision. At the same time, Directors noted that the current account deficit has continued to widen, external debt has remained high, and inflation has increased sharply. They emphasized the need for continued policy efforts to mitigate these imbalances and create an environment conducive to sustained high growth.
Directors stressed the importance of near-term wage moderation, both in the government sector as intended and the state-owned enterprises. Wage moderation will be key to avoiding second-round effects from food and utility price increases and preventing higher inflation from becoming entrenched in expectations, as well as underpinning external competitiveness.
Directors noted that the real exchange rate is broadly in line with fundamentals, and recognized the advantages of maintaining a stable exchange rate in circumstances of high financial euroization, sensitivities to balance-sheet mismatches, and the past success of this policy. At the same time, Directors emphasized the need for support from other policies, including continued fiscal adjustment to manage domestic demand and help address macroeconomic imbalances; accelerated structural reforms to lessen vulnerabilities while raising sustainable growth; and strong prudential policies and financial sector supervision.
Against this background, Directors welcomed the authorities' intention to continue to reduce the general government deficit. They noted that achieving the authorities' target of a deficit of ½ percent of GDP by 2010 would represent a significant adjustment, and encouraged them to maintain this momentum going forward by announcing a target of fiscal balance by 2011. Directors generally considered that frontloading fiscal adjustment—including by saving any revenue overperformance—would provide welcome immediate support in reducing macroeconomic imbalances and raising the likelihood of meeting the recommended targets. A fiscal deficit target of 1 percent of GDP or less in 2009 would have considerable merit.
Directors underlined the benefits of expenditure-led fiscal adjustment and saw room to reduce current expenditure without unduly compromising the delivery of public services. They also pointed to the importance of ensuring the sustainability of the pension system, including by avoiding further backtracking on earlier reforms. More broadly, Directors encouraged the authorities to identify contingency measures that could be readily put in place in case macroeconomic imbalances turned out worse than expected.
Directors noted that Croatia's financial sector remains healthy, while stressing that continued strains in global financial markets and balance-sheet vulnerabilities underscore the importance of vigilance in maintaining high prudential standards and closely monitoring banks' risk management and lending practices. Directors commended the authorities' measures to strengthen banking supervision, including through increases in required capital cushions, improved communications with market participants, and efforts to strengthen home-host supervisory coordination. They also welcomed the continued strengthening in supervision of the nonbank sector, and the authorities' plan to produce a forward-looking financial stability report.
While understanding the central bank's rationale for implementing credit and other administrative measures, Directors considered that, taking into account their side effects, a phasing out of the measures would be desirable, acknowledging that this would need to be done in a careful way. This would require support from tighter fiscal policy to reduce excess demand pressures and close supervision of banks.
Directors stressed the considerable benefits of faster structural reforms for reducing vulnerabilities, raising living standards, and successfully concluding EU accession negotiations. They encouraged the authorities to continue to improve the business environment by reducing administrative burdens, legal uncertainties, and corruption. Such actions would make Croatia a more attractive destination for the investments needed to sustainably increase productivity, exports, and potential growth. Directors also looked forward to swift action on reforming the heavily indebted shipyards and on completing the broader privatization process, with involvement of strategic investors.

Solvated electrons are ubiquitous intermediates in radiation-induced processes, with their lifetime being determined by quenching processes, Such as the direct reaction with protons under acidic conditions. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations allow its to unravel with molecular resolution the ultrafast reaction mechanism by which the electron and proton react in water. The path to a Successful reaction involves a distortion and contraction of the hydrated electron and a rapid proton motion along a chain of hydrogen bonds, terminating on the water molecule most protruding into the electron cloud. This fundamental reaction is thus decidedly shown to be of a proton-transfer rather than electron-transfer character. Due to the desolvation penalty connected with breaking of the hydration shells of these charged particles, the reaction is, however, not diffusion-limited, in agreement with the interpretation of kinetics measurements.

Movie Popcorn
September 20, 2011 8 Comments
I went to the movies last night, to see Rise of the Planets of the Apes. Since I'm trying to lose weight, I was trying to be careful of the snacks I order there. I figured popcorn was the healthiest thing to get (regular not caramel). And so when I was waiting in line, I googled the calories in movie popcorn. I was shocked when I saw the numbers [link].
Movie popcorn is loaded withy more calories and fat than any McDonald's meal. A large no-butter has 1,160 calories and 77 grams of fat!! That's like eating a McD's quarter pounder (with cheese) AND a Big Mac!!
The main reason why this popcorn is so loaded with fat and calories is because it's popped in oil rather than air, that soaks everything with oil. Air popped popcorn, on the other hand, has only 30 calories and less than half a gram of fat per cup [link].
Next time I go to the movies, I'm sneaking in my own popcorn.

Health and Safety
WSTF Occupational Health Clinic
WSTF has an occupational health clinic serving employees at NASA White Sands Test Facility. The clinic performs routine physicals and provides walk-in care for employees who are feeling ill at work or who have a job-related injury or suspected exposure to hazardous chemicals. An ambulance is available for emergency trips to a local hospital.
The clinic also provides health education and wellness information via the WSTF Keystone Committee newsletter "The Porcelain Press" and other online newsletters. Employees may drop in to ask a second opinion or discuss a health-related issue.
WSTF Safety
A certified Nurse Practitioner and two Registered Nurses staff the clinic. When not available, the Clinic is backed up by the WSTF Fire Department and Emergency Services so that help is available around the clock. Safety and Health are ALWAYS a priority at WSTF!
The employees of NASA White Sands Test Facility (WSTF) are dedicated to ensuring a world-class level of health and safety for all personnel. WSTF believes all injuries are preventable and working safely is a condition of continued employment. Because WSTF is located in a remote area for the purpose of testing hazardous materials, certain natural and operational hazards are inherent as a part of the work done at WSTF.
Managing Risk
Management has the responsibility to manage the risk at WSTF. Federal, state, and local rules were established to operate WSTF in a safe manner. Safety is an extremely important part of the WSTF mission and all employees take their responsibility seriously to work to those rules and minimize the risk to themselves and to others.
WSTF OSHA VPP Star Site
Due to WSTF's compliance with safety regulations and implementation of measures to ensure safety for employees, as well as the environment, the Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) designated WSTF a "Volunteer Protection Program (VPP) Star Site." Approval into VPP is OSHA's official recognition of the outstanding efforts of employers and employees who have achieved exemplary occupational safety and health.
Operational Hazards WSTF usually has large quantities of hypergolic fuels and oxidizers stored on site. Hypergolic propellants are used as rocket fuel because they do not require an ignition source or oxygen to react, but react on contact with each other. The properties of these fuels and oxidizers make them very hazardous. They are also toxic, corrosive, and harmful if inhaled, ingested, or simply through contact.
Other hazardous commodities are onsite, such as cryogenics (super cold fluids, below -423 °F) liquid hydrogen, liquid nitrogen and liquid oxygen (LOX) and high pressure gasses at operating pressures in excess of 3,000 psi.
The desert has a wide assortment of creatures that could inflict harm on WSTF employees. Rattlesnakes, ring-tail cats, spiders, scorpions, coyotes, and rodents are just some of the critters that live near the work area during various times of the year. The Fire Department at WSTF is trained to handle these critters safely and can be called to capture and return them to their natural habitat.
Flash floods, lightning storms, and high winds can come up suddenly. During high winds, certain areas of the site are closed until hazardous weather conditions have passed. During heavy rains, flooded roadways and fast running water can create a hazard. Drivers must use caution because rocks and sand may be just below the surface of the water. WSTF Emergency Services vehicles check the access road for adverse conditions and place roadblocks in hazardous areas whenever necessary.
Heat stress is a common hazard in this area. Head coverings and sun block (SPF 15 or greater) are recommended when it is necessary to be in the sun for long periods. Overheating can cause sun stroke and sunburns. Heat index advisories are posted on the web daily during the summer months. Any heat-related injuries are referred immediately to the site clinic or Fire Department EMTs.
Access to hazardous operations areas is controlled by traffic lights and warning signs leading into the areas. Sirens are included as part of the test area warning system to alert the site in case of a chemical spill, fire, or other emergency. Employees are trained in evacuation procedures for safety and accountability in an emergency.

Grace Kelly: I'll Remember April
I'll Remember April
Grace Kelly (alto sax)
Mood Changes (Pazz 16-9)
Grace Kelly (alto sax),
Doug Johnson (piano), John Lockwood (bass), Jordan Perlson (drums).
Composed by Gene De Paul, Don Raye & Patricia Johnston.
Recorded: Westwood, Massachusetts, no date given (CD released in 2009)
Rating: 82/100 (learn more)
I can't think of a teenage jazz musician who has more visibility than young Grace Kelly, who is being touted as a prodigy of the alto. But her playing is so careful at times that it is hard to get a sense of how well she really plays her horn. Here she is left exposed on a moderately fast version of "I'll Remember April," without other front line players or clever arrangements to pick up the slack, and the results are lackluster. Her tone is sweet and lovely in the opening melody statement, but gets more and more shrill as the song progresses. These are pretty easy chord changes for soloing, with long stretches of static harmonies—and there are a hundred young saxophonists in Manhattan who could slice 'em and dice 'em until they beg for mercy. Yet Kelly lets her opening break, that moment for glory, float by with hardly a peep from her horn. Later in the chorus she fools around with a simple motif, and sometimes tosses out a fluid phrase but nothing you wouldn't hear in your typical Berklee practice room. I keep waiting for her to let loose with something special to convince me that the buzz surrounding her is more than empty hype. I'm still waiting.

College Hockey:Welch Dismissed by Gophers
MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota junior forward Dan Welch has been released from the team for academic reasons, the university announced Friday.
Welch, who had previously missed a year and a half of collegiate playing time due to academic trouble, had played in all but one game with the Gophers this season.
"He signed a contract with the university … and it appears he will not fulfill that contract," said Gopher head coach Don Lucia, who was informed of the situation Friday morning.
Lucia did not elaborate on Welch's contract, citing confidentiality concerns.
After missing all of 2000-01 and half of last season, Welch returned to the Gophers in late January 2002 and had 10 points in 19 games, helping Minnesota win the NCAA title.
He had five goals and five assists in 18 games this season. He played 36 games for Minnesota as a freshman in 1999-2000.
As of Friday, not all of Welch's grades had apparently come in, but those that were available made it very likely that the needed academic standards would not be met.
"It's time to move on," said Lucia. "I feel bad for him; he's a good kid."

AmeriGas won't move liquid petroleum tank that leaked, caused an evacuation
TEQUESTA, Fla.-- In a town of less than six thousand people a thirty thousand gallon liquid petroleum tank is fueling a heck of a lot of concerns.
"It's a disaster waiting to happen," said Thomas Paterno.
Paterno is a former Village Mayor and now serves on the Village Council. He and other Village leaders want the AmeriGas-owned LP tank to be relocated.
Two weeks ago, a faulty valve cause the tank to link. It forced a 12 hour emergency situation complete with orders for nearly two thousand residents to evacuate from their homes.
"If that tank would have blew it could have leveled a ½ mile radius," he said.
The overnight ordeal ended peacefully but prompted the Village Manager to ask AmeriGas to relocate the tanker. It has been fixed in the ground off Old Dixie Highway, adjacent to the railroad for the past few decades. However, over times homes have been developed and a water plant was built nearby.
"We are a small residential community and we want to protect our residents. It's very important that this tank be relocated," said Village Mayor Abby Brennan.
In an email Thursday, a spokesperson with AmeriGas said the location of the tank and distance from the tracks to the tank complies with all local, state and federal requirement and is routinely inspected.
The spokesperson also stated that the tank is routinely inspected and the integrity of the tank is safe and in good condition. As a result, AmeriGas has no plans to move it.
"I think that's absolutely ridiculous. I can't even put it into words," said Paterno.
"I think we'll go back and make our case to them until they reconsider that," said Mayor Brennan.
Below is the full email from AmeriGas spokesperson Kate Stickel:
Tanks are inspected annually by state and local officials.The tank was certified as being in full compliance with the code by the State Bureau of LP Gas Inspection in January 2014.
• We routinely conduct daily and weekly safety inspections of the plant.
• Also, in-depth inspections are performed at minimum every two years by the Area Safety Advisor.
• While no specific statistics are available, it is very common for propane bulk storage tanks to be located adjacent to rail sidings. This provides access for supply from rail delivery. There's no evidence to suggest this creates any greater risk than any other location.
• The integrity of the tank is safe and in good condition.
• The location of the tank and distance from the tracks to the tank complies with all local, state, and federal requirements.
• The tank is still in use by AmeriGas and there are no present plans to relocate the tank.
• Amerigas is proud of our commitment to safety and know it sets us apart in the industry.

Eyebrows are all the rage now. About a decade ago thin and meticulously arched brows were in vogue. Now in 2014 bold thick eyebrows are in. Some of us are still recovering from the overly tweezed days. It takes time and dedication to grow healthy looking thick eyebrows. Luckily there are products to assist us in this transition. Anastasia of Beverly Hills has an array of products designed for your brows.
Anastasia's Dipbrow Pomade is waterproof brow tint for filling in sparse areas. Also ideal for sculpting, defining, and carving precise brows that won't fade, according to the label. At only 18 dollars it is quite a value. The product comes in a small jar, and it's consistency is similar to gel eyeliner. This review is specifically for the chocolate color --but there are 5 color options including: blonde, auburn, chocolate, dark brown and ebony. With this product, a little goes a long way. To avoid brows that look like they were drawn on with a Sharpie, only use a small amount at the origin of your brow and spread it throughout. Even if your hair is jet black, try to go a shade or two lighter if you know you are heavy handed.
The Pomade gives your eye brows a natural tint. The solution adheres to hair like hair gel and it doesn't smudge. Compared to other methods for filing in brows it is the best and easiest for new brow artists. It can be purchased at Sephora. For more information visit Anastasia of Beverly Hills website.

Miley Cryus may be competing with Justin Bieber to see who can create the greatest amount of controversy. As if her Bangerz tour wasn't controversial enough, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles she saw Katy Perry at the concert and decided to give her a kiss. This was not just a kiss-kiss on both cheeks, but rather a full on mouth to mouth. And Katy denied her that tongue to tongue. TMZ reported today, Feb. 23, 2014, "Miley Cyrus -- Make Out Sesh DENIED ... By Katy Perry." While Perry may not have liked the kiss, she did Tweet to Miley afterwards, "I adore you." This from the Huffington Post, "Miley Cyrus Kisses Katy Perry During Bangerz Tour Stop."
Where have those lips been, Miley?
In a related story TMZ wondered about those lips of Miley's after she took a swig from a random beer drinker. As they noted:
The look on Miley's face after being shut down is classic.
Katy must have seen our video of Miley chugging a random dudes beer.
Wonder how Jared Leto will take this as reported in "Miley Cyrus: No love from Bangerz fans, all love from Jared Leto."
What happened to Miley Cyrus?
Miley seems to have become the type of celebrity looking for Lady Gaga and Madonna shock fame using her body instead of her talent. While people are fussing about her twerking and tonguing, some parents are concerned about her simulating sex on stage and nudity.

Corporations depend on us to buy their products and make them richer. Not buying their products is a powerfull mean to curb their power. How much money would a company would be willing to loose before they bend. Such collective actions of non consumption can directly impact the corporations profits and get them aware of the real power of their customers.
Unfortunately, it's hard to let go, we are all using gas In our cars everyday and therefore have to bear our responsibility for perpetuating a flawed model that requires innocents to die in order for us to drive to the mall.
By going back to the farmers markets we send a message to Monsanto and co that growth is not attractive anymore for us consumers, in fact it's a turn off that by contrast makes small size operations attractive and human.
I once heard that if all the Chinese would each stand on a chair and jump all at the same time, earthquakes would follow...if we all selectively stop buying goods from questionable corporations, we can send a tidal wave across the corporate world that will make the board rooms realize that the ones they use and despise, the customers, had the power all along.

MOBILE, Ala. (AP) — Authorities say South Alabama associate head football coach Kurt Crain was found dead at his home from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Baldwin County Coroner Sam Vinson said Tuesday night while the case was still under investigation, the wound appeared to be self-inflicted and that an autopsy would likely be performed on Wednesday. A news release from the university says Spanish Fort police discovered Crain's body on Tuesday afternoon.
The 47-year-old was an Associated Press All-American linebacker at Auburn in 1987. His 168 tackles from that season still ranks second on Auburn's single-season charts.
He was drafted by the Houston Oilers and spent two seasons in the NFL with the Oilers and Green Bay Packers.

If you have procrastination problems, I feel bad for you, son. Finish. has no problems, it just gets stuff done.
But seriously, I love to procrastinate. No matter what I do to try to get assignments done on time, or finally start working on that screenplay I've been talking about forever, nothing seems to work. There is always something else to do, always something to distract me. I have tried a multitude of to-do list apps which have all claimed they will help me defeat the procrastination bug, yet just two weeks ago I found myself on an assessment due date halfway through season 2 of Workaholics with not a single word typed on my assessment. Two hours before due time I got a reminder to "Hand in Assessment B."
Thanks, iPhone, I'll just hand in that 0 word essay and see how it goes!
Enter Finish. for iPhone, the latest in a long line of "revolutionary" apps that promise to help me stop procrastinating. Finish. was created by two high school students who correctly saw that existing to-do list management tools were lacking in their execution and decided to fix it themselves. They did this by creating a unique reminder system and coupling it with a beautiful user interface which makes Finish. one of the best to-do list apps available in the iOS app store today.
The assumption that Finish. makes is that I cannot be trusted to look at my to-do list without being told to do so. While many other apps have the capacity to remind you of a task, they generally remind you on the day you have set that task as due; unless you constantly visit the app to see what is approaching its due date, you will be left in the dark. What Finish. does at its very core is place tasks into three user defined timeframes:
- Short term (defaults to tasks due in 0-2 days)
- Mid term (defaults to tasks due in 3-5 days)
- Long Term (defaults to tasks due in 6+ days)
Listed above are the default time periods chosen by the app, but they are completely customisable. When you schedule a task it gradually slides up from long term to mid term to short term as the task's due date gets closer. Each time a task changes to the next time frame you will receive a push notification to alert you that the task's due date is getting closer. This rewrite to the traditional functionality of to-do list apps is impressive, and it provides one of those "why didn't anybody think of this sooner" moments.
The adding, editing, sharing and finalizing of tasks within Finish. is handled in an extremely simple manner, making the app easily accessible to even the most basic of iPhone users. To add a task you simply tap the + button in the corner of the app, name your task and set a due date.
Once you have added a few tasks you can easily edit, share, finalize or mark tasks with a star by swiping right to left across the task in questionand choosing the appropriate action. If you need to see your finished tasks at any time, simply tap on the Finish logo in the top centre of the screen. The purple color scheme of the app speaks well to me, as purple is my favourite color. However, I can't help but feel like the one thing this app is missing is a customisable color scheme similar to that of Realmac Software's Clear. When the lack of a configurable color scheme is the biggest problem with an app, you tend to be on to a winner.
Finish. is one of the few apps that comes along and really changes what should be expected of an app in its category. By challenging the mundane to-do list status quo with its one-of-a-kind reminders system and a slick, well-designed gesture based UI, Basil Ltd.'s Finish. has separated itself from the pack as the one to-do list app that, at least for this writer, actually helps get things done.
Finish. is available now for iPhone and iPod touch for $0.99.
