Canadian firm Saputo has extended its takeover offer for Warrnambool Cheese and Butter.
After four months of bids and counter offers, and a massive rise in Warrnambool Cheese and Butter's share price, Saputo's offer was due to close tonight but has been extended to January 22.
Whether either that bid, or the rival Murray Goulburn offer, are successful will depend largely on what failed takeover suitor Bega chooses to do with its stake in WCB.

A Liberal backbencher says the Qantas Sale Act must be changed to allow majority foreign ownership.
Dan Tehan was recently appointed the convenor of the Coalition's influential Friends of Tourism group, and says the 49 per cent foreign ownership cap is a straight jacket restraining the company's growth.
However, the Opposition's Anthony Albanese warns that removing the restrictions could cause the airline to be split up, possibly at the expense of regional services.

Federal Treasurer Joe Hockey has scrapped a set of foreign ownership conditions stopping the Chinese state-owned company Yanzhou from taking full ownership of an Australian coal miner.
The move comes less than two weeks after Mr Hockey rejected US firm Archer Daniels Midland's $3.4 billion takeover bid for GrainCorp, saying the deal raised national interest concerns.
Under conditions set by the previous government in 2009, Yanzhou was required to reduce its stake in Yancoal to 70 per cent by the end of this year.
Yanzhou currently holds 78 per cent of Yancoal, which operates 10 coal mines in Queensland, New South Wales and Western Australia.

The Business Council of Australia has warned the Federal Government's decision to reject ADM's proposed takeover of GrainCorp takeover could put at risk critical foreign investment in the future.
Treasurer Joe Hockey on Friday announced the decision to reject Archer Daniels Midland's $3.4 billion bid for the eastern grain handle, saying he had to take the national interest into account.
But the BCA has hit out at Mr Hockey's decision, suggesting it undermines the Government's message that Australia is "open for business".

Is There Anyone Capable of Taking Charge Here?
Medical Staff Affairs Monthly, March 11, 2009
There is nothing like a crisis to raise the fundamental question about leadership, "Is there anybody capable of taking charge here?" While this is certainly relevant on a national and international level, what about in your medical group, hospital, or healthcare organization? Leadership in healthcare organizations can be problematic, as many clinicians are dismissive of the importance of leadership in driving change and improving the chances of success. This is true until the chips are down. It is then that everyone looks around and says, "Where are the leaders now that we need them the most?" In other words, who is going to help guide us through this crisis, bridge us across this chasm, or lead us out of this morass?
Given the current state of affairs, it should come as no surprise to see a definite uptick in the interest in governance and leadership challenges. In the February 2009 McKinsey Quarterly, Mountford and Webb accurately point out three factors that stand in the way of clinicians embracing leadership:
- An ingrained skepticism among clinicians about the value of time spent on leadership
- The weak or even negative incentives for clinicians, especially physicians, to take on service leadership roles
- Most organizations provide little-to-no provision for nurturing clinical leadership capabilities through education, development, and training of clinicians for leadership roles.
In light of all this, a fair question becomes how then to proceed? At the March 2009 American Medical Group Association (AMGA), several sessions and presentations on governance and leadership were featured. One presentation developed by J. Gregory Stovall uses an agricultural analogy to guide the way. He posits four steps:
- Creating fertile soil, which means to develop a culture of leadership in the organization. Of course, strong leadership is needed to drive and shape cultural change, but you have to start somewhere.
- Planting good seeds, which is the identification of potential physician leaders and recruiting them to the culture of leadership.
- Watering and fertilizing, which refers to providing the structural support of leadership education, development, and training.
- Harvesting the result by assessing the return on investment (ROI) in developing leaders.
On a more practical level, another question may be where do we start if we have nothing or where do we go next to improve what we do have? The temptation is to jump to an internally developed, externally facilitated, or national seminars dealing with leadership training for clinicians. However, as Mountford and Webb state, there really should be a prior step. That step is for the organization to define what it truly needs from clinical leaders. To achieve those needs, what personal skill development and management tools are required? What attributes and behaviors are to be fostered and encouraged? Are there differences between the roles and responsibilities needed that require different sets or subsets of leadership skills and training? Are there differences between the clinical professionals needed for success? And where is the greatest need for leadership training: the medical staff, the board, the management team? After a thoughtful analysis of these questions, the path that needs to be followed should become clearer.
Finally, The Greeley Company has always recognized and taught that a competent clinician does not automatically mean a successful transition to a competent leader. In fact, the opposite is often the case. The successful transition requires a commitment to acquire and develop the necessary personal growth and external toolkit to be able to effectively lead change. This includes, at a minimum, communication skills, principles of negotiation, management of conflict, strategic-thinking abilities, and collaboration with diverse stakeholders in the organization. This is no easy task, but the payoff is the development of a cadre of strong leaders. When the crisis comes, there is now an answer as to who is capable of taking charge. And taking charge does not mean command-and-control. It means shaping the vision, creating the sense of urgency, driving the cultural changes required for organizations to recognize and embrace their fundamental core values and mission, while simultaneously being able to flex and adapt. This leadership can strategically help organizations to become and remain successful in this very chaotic healthcare environment, characterized by tremendous conflict and cataclysmic change in which we all live. Please let us know if we can be of help in providing help in the identification, development, education, and training for leaders in your organization.
Until next time, be the best that you can be.

Recommended games in Action
Killer FPS Afterpulse Released on iOS - equal parts amazing and annoying at the same time.
Afterpulse has been in soft launch for a while now and I've been tracking it. It's a really impressive first person shooter but it's not without it's annoyances.
First let's get this out of the way. The first person shooter gameplay is some of the best and most impressive ever seen on a mobile platform. The graphics are beyond console quality, the controls are pretty good (for virtual sticks), and the frame rate on the latest iPhone 6s+ is amazing. Metal graphics really do impress.
But that comes at a cost. It's a free to play game that uses all of the old, tired, annoy the hell out of the player to get them to pay tactics. They haven't learned anything from games that have progressed the free to play methods beyond energy systems and multiple currencies. Because of this the game is unbalanced and just annoying. Really it's a pristine, amazing FPS wrapped up in a wad of old dirty clothes.
So why are we writing about this? Well I considered not mentioning it just out of anger from the annoying energy timer. But it's Editor's Choice on the App Store this week and the gameplay itself is really really good. It's so good that I am putting up with the annoyances just to play it. But I do feel a little more dirty every time I play it.

An Infinite Runner and A Shooter Fell Down a Well — Downwell Rocks
First time I saw this game I almost dismissed it. Almost.
Luckily for me I decided to give it a try because I had heard the name mentioned. Wow am I glad I did. This is a great game. The basic premise of the game is that the main character is falling down a well — and a gun is the only thing available to slow down the fall. Along the way there are gems to be gathered, upgrades to be bought, and power-ups to be earned.
It's a little gem of a game, in spite of how it looks. Give it a shot.

HoPiKo Review from Gamezebo - 4.5/5 - "Highly satisfying gameplay"
Gamezebo has taken a look at the recently release HoPiKo:
HoPiKo's repetition is what helps you learn the ins and outs of every segment and level. That doesn't mean things don't get a little frustrating, though.
But having to "Play it again, Sam" barely makes a dent on HoPiKo's crimson finish. Try playing it at the start of your day. It's like electric coffee.

iPhone 2.2 beta seeded to developers
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Handhelds, Software
Right on the heels of the iPhone 2.1 release that seems to cure just about all our iPhone-related woes (although, honestly, some are still there,) Apple has just released iPhone 2.2 into beta, and seeded it to their iPhone devs. Officially, we are talking about iPhone OS 2.2 beta 1, and as such, we have no timetable or anything as to when this will actually hit the masses. But still, it's nice to know that it's coming, right? What would you like to see addressed in iPhone 2.2?
The App Store is a gamble for developers
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Editorial, Features, Handhelds, Software
Earlier today, I received word that a second iPhone App had been denied access into the App Store, with Apple citing that the application duplicates existing functionality already found in the Apple ecosystem. This is beginning to become a problem, and if you aren't seeing why, allow me to explain why this is so alarming to me. In case you hadn't heard, a couple of weeks ago, an app called Podcaster was rejected by Apple for similar reason. The line of thinking there was that Podcaster, an app that would allow you to subscribe to and download podcasts while on the go, duplicated functionality already found in iTunes.
Now, if you've never used an iPhone, allow me to point out the absurdity. There is nothing on the iPhone or iPod touch that allows you to subscribe to, or even download, a podcast to your device. Sure, you can open the file in Safari, but that is not what we are talking about. That's right, even if you enter the iTunes app, you will find right away that podcasts just aren't there. So we have to then assume that Apple was referring to the iTunes desktop software when they said that Podcaster duplicated functionality. Really? Is that a major issue that a company decided to fix a gaping hole on the iPhone, even if that hole doesn't exist on the desktop? Why, then, are there so many calculators in the App Store? After all, not only do we have a calculator as part of OS X, but there is a calculator that ships installed by default on the iPhone as well. It seems we have a double-standard here.

You that 2G iPod touch that Apple was all excited about, being that it's the thinnest iPod touch ever (despite being only the second one ever made)? We figured you guys might be interested in having us take a bunch of unboxing images of the one that just got delivered here to Gear Live HQ. Yeah, this thing is thin, and if you don't already have a first-gen iPod touch, you should seriously look into this model if you've been waiting one. It's a nice improvement over the original.

Time to fire up Software Update yet again, as Apple has just pushed out the latest update to Leopard, 10.5.5. There's a lot here, but being the email warriors that we are, seeing all the Mail.app improvements makes us just a tad bit exited. We are also into the MobileMe fixes as well. Gotta love the cloud. In any event, hit the jump to get the full list of updates. If you don't care, then you can just be assured by this nugget from Apple:
The 10.5.5 Update is recommended for all users running Mac OS X Leopard and includes general operating system fixes that enhance the stability, compatibility and security of your Mac.
Yeah, didn't do it for you either? Didn't think so.

Since everything and their mother has been writing in requesting follow-up on the iPod touch 2.1 jailbreak, we figured we'd better respond. Latest is that you can now jailbreak iPhone 2.1 as well, and the GUI version of the iPod touch 2.1 firmware is available as well (thanks for letting us know, QuickPWN!). The one thing that isn't yet done is the jailbreak of the newer iPod touch 2G, but that is only because no one on the Dev Team has happened to pick one up yet. I'm sure we'll be seeing it in the next few days. You just can't keep these guys down.

To say "That was fast" would be an understatement. Just three days after Apple unleashed the new iPod touch 2.1 firmware, alongside a newly updated iPod touch, the new firmware has already been jailbroken by the good folks at the QuickPwn project. Hey, I guess we should no longer be surprised anymore. If you are jonesing to jailbreak your touch, just know that you are gonna have to mess around with the command line, as the GUI version has yet to be completed (it's coming though - as is an iPhone 2.1 jailbreak.) But, hey, getting comfy with the command line is right in line with the iPod touch being the "funnest iPod ever", am I right?

iPhone 2.1 firmware released

Apple has finally unleashed the iPhone 2.1 firmware to the masses as of an hour or so ago. If you've been running iPhone 2.0 since July, then you've probably been waiting desperately for this firmware release, which is supposed to clear up a ton of bugs and other annoyances about the app-centric iPhone OS. Here's a list of the changes and improvements:
- Decrease in call set-up failures and dropped calls
- Significantly better battery life for most users
- Dramatically reduced time to backup to iTunes
- Improved email reliability, notably fetching email from POP and Exchange accounts
- Faster installation of 3rd party applications
- Fixed bugs causing hangs and crashes for users with lots of third party applications
- Improved performance in text messaging
- Faster loading and searching of contacts
- Improved accuracy of the 3G signal strength display
- Repeat alert up to two additional times for incoming text messages
- Option to wipe data after ten failed passcode attempts
- Genius playlist creation
So, there's a lot of stuff there. Of course, most are concerned primarily with the big fixes. Here's hoping that iPhone 2.1 is the solid OS that the 2.0 release should have been. You can get the update by connecting your iPhone to your computer, firing up iTunes 8 (it's required), and hitting "Check for Update." Good luck!

Pangea puts their iPhone Apps on sale
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Cell Phones, Handhelds, Hot Deals, Software, Video Games
Well, here's something we could get used to. Pangea, maker of popular App Store titles like Cro-Mag Rally and Enigmo, have put their entire line of apps on sale. This is obviously just going to be for a limited time only, but we can't seem to find the end date of the promotion anywhere. In the meantime, just know that for now, the prices on Pangea App Store software is as follows:
- Enigmo: $4.99, down from $9.99
- Cro-Mag Ralley: $1.99, down from $5.99
- Billy Frontier: $3.99, down from $5.99
- Beer Bounce: $1.99, down from $2.99
- Pangea VR Pro: $14.99, down from $19.99
A couple of these are fantastic for the money (we're looking at you, Enigmo and Cro-Mag). Head on over to the App Store to start shopping. Here's hoping this is just the beginning of App Store sales.

iPod nano updated, elongated, and nano-chromatic
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Apple, Design, Music, Portable Audio / Video
The worst-kept secret of today's Apple Let's Rock iPod event was the newly updated iPod nano. Apple officially let the cat out of the bag today, sharing all the details. The new iPod nano is taller, and also turns out to be the thinnest iPod ever made. It's available in a record nine colors, and you get two models to choose from - an 8GB version for $149, and a 16GB version for $199. The battery will hook you up with 24 hours of music or 4 hours of video. The nano now has an included accelerometer, which allows it to sense if you are holding it in portrait or landscape mode, so it can then change the screen orientation accordingly. That same accelerometer also gives rise to a new "Shake to Shuffle" feature. It's exactly what it sounds like. If you don't like what you are listening to, shake the nano, and you get a new random track. You can order the new iPod nano now at the online Apple Store, or pick one up at a physical location as they arrive over the next few days.

Emma Foolishness and Folly Quotes
How we cite our quotes: Citations follow this format: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #7
[…] certainly silly things do cease to be silly if they are done by sensible people in an impudent way. Wickedness is always wickedness, but folly is not always folly.—It depends upon the character of those who handle it. (26.2)
Frank's haircut isn't nearly as troubling as the fact that he doesn't make a big deal of it. Emma suggests that this could mean he undertakes such "folly" on a regular basis – and is now therefore immune to it.
Quote #8
Emma's very good opinion of Frank Churchill was a little shaken the following day, by hearing that he was gone off to London, merely to have his hair cut. (25.1)
Looks matter in Austen's novel – but the ability to appear naturally good-looking is akin to being naturally genteel. Too much effort seems gauche. And, in Frank's case, spendthrift.
Quote #9
What right had he to come among us with affection and faith engaged, and with manners so very disengaged? What right had he to endeavour to please, as he certainly did—to distinguish any one young woman with persevering attention, as he certainly did—while he really belonged to another?—How could he tell what mischief he might be doing? (46.45)
Emma accuses Frank of the same recklessness with love which she herself could be guilty of.

Is Your 'Go' Broken?
July 30, 2015
"Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
Matthew 28:19-20
A little girl was playing with her wind-up toy animal one day when it stopped working. She wasn't proficient with her vocabulary yet, so she took the toy to her mom and said, "Mommy, I think its go is broken."
I think that's an appropriate diagnosis for many in the church today. Their "go" is broken. They have the command from Jesus to "Go and make disciples," yet, for the sake of comfort, convenience, or some other excuse, they stay put and never even cross the street for the sake of sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ.
But the Lord's commission stands as unwavering and uncompromising today as it did when He uttered those words 2,000 years ago. That means our mission is the same: to go and make disciples. Obedience to this command is one of the most important parts of the Christian life!
It's the love of Christ that compels us to follow the Great Commission and to go share Christ with others. So don't live life with your "go" broken. Whether you cross the street or the globe, go and share Jesus with those who don't know Him!

OCEANSIDE, Calif. (May 8, 2013)—Tim Lambesis, 32, the singer for the Grammy-nominated heavy metal band As I Lay Dying, has been arrested in Southern California in connection with what authorities say was an attempt to hire an undercover detective to kill his estranged wife.
The San Diego County Sheriff's Department says Lambesis was arrested Tuesday in Oceanside, Calif.
A statement from authorities says detectives received information Thursday that Lambesis had solicited someone to kill his wife.
A task force from several law enforcement agencies quickly launched an investigation that led to the arrest.
The department provided no further details on the investigation.
As I Lay Dying formed in San Diego in 2000.
Its 2007 album "An Ocean Between Us" reached No. 8 on Billboard's charts, and one track was nominated for a Grammy for top metal performance.

Build with Wood Responsibly
A small shop in Austin built the cabinets—green just for the fact that locally made products need less fuel for shipping. But also, the boxes are crafted from Arreis, a medium-density fiberboard (MDF) made from 100 percent post-industrial wood waste and no added formaldehyde, which can off-gas and cause health problems. The face frames are Lyptus, a plantation-grown eucalyptus hybrid that regrows from the stump after the wood is harvested about every 15 years.

mount.davfs (from davfs2) allows one to mount a WebDAV server into the local filesystem. However, even if you want to read only one byte from a file, davfs2 will block until it downloads the whole file (which could be huge). For example, this blocks (virtually) forever on a WAN link.
dd if=/mnt/webdav/1GB.bin bs=1M count=1 of=1M.bin
The process can't be killed until the whole file is downloaded. (But you can force unmount, I suppose.)
In the following command, davfs2 downloads the whole file before passing a single byte to gzip:
pv < 100MB.bin | gzip > 100MB.bin.gz
I can bare with the problem in the first case (by avoiding it), but for the second case I need the filesystem driver to pass the data to the reading process as soon as the fs driver recieves the data, not after the whole file is downloaded. Are there any alternatives to davfs2 that can do this?

Abigail Perkiss: From Policy to Practice: Remembering Brown IIRoundup: Talking About History
Abigail Perkiss is an assistant professor of history at Kean University in Union, New Jersey, and a fellow at the Kean University Center for History, Politics and Policy.
Two weeks ago, we commemorated the 58th anniversary of one of the most foundational legal decisions in contemporary American history.
This week marks another milestone in the civil-rights movement: the Supreme Court decision known as Brown II.
On April 17, 1954, in Brown v. Board of Education, the nation's highest court declared segregation in public schools to be unconstitutional.
Chief Justice Earl Warren, writing for a unanimous bench in Brown I, held that "in the field of public education, the doctrine of 'separate but equal' has no place. Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal."
The first Brown verdict was no doubt momentous. But it was also largely symbolic. It would take more than a year for the Supreme Court to determine how to implement this new integrationist mandate.
It was 57 years ago tomorrow that the same court delivered a decision that would chart the course of public education in the United States for more than half a century.
On May 31, 1955, the last day of the spring term, the Warren bench issued its judgment in Brown II, placing the practice of desegregation in the hands of local governments....

Romanian Leu Appreciates Most in Two Weeks on Fed Stimulus Plan
Romania's leu strengthened the most in two weeks and foreign bond yields dropped after the Federal Reserve's plan to buy bonds until the U.S. job market recovers pushed up appetite for riskier assets.
The leu rose as much as 0.5 percent, the most since Aug. 30, to 4.4895 per euro, before paring its gain to 0.3 percent to 4.4990 per euro by 5:14 p.m. in Bucharest, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Yields on Romania's euro-denominated bonds due 2018 dropped about 8 basis points to 4.735 percent.
Emerging-market currencies, including the Polish zloty and the Czech koruna in Europe's east, and stocks rallied after the Fed said yesterday it will expand holdings of long-term securities with open-ended purchases of $40 billion of mortgage debt a month and hold the federal funds rate near zero "at least through mid-2015."
"Emerging Europe's currencies opened stronger on Friday morning supported by global investors' improved sentiment. The Romanian leu opened at 4.5010 per euro and traded in the 4.4891 - 4.5050 per euro area," Piraeus Bank Romania SA economists, including Camil Apostol, wrote in a note to clients today. "We think the leu will close the session in the same area."

I successfully installed MAMP and WordPress, and have been able to set up a new WordPress site locally. However, rather than build it from scratch, I would much rather import my old pages and take it from there. I have researched the topic online, but the results/instructions are way above my head. Can anyone point me to a tutorial that would explain the steps in simple language?

PRESENTED BY DUB MD // HOSTED BY DJBOOTH // CUTS BY DJ BERN"FEAT. ADD-2 x SEVERE x M-DOT x REVALATION x ONEDERKID x FLICCS" The "Sam Jackson Project" is Dominique Larue's 6th project to date, the difference with this one is she's brought along the legendary Samuel L. Jackson. This is to be considered an "Ode to Sam," with a collection of quality rhymes/production, while she intertwines quotes from her favorite Sam Jackson movie appearances. Larue wants to achieve two goals with this project, make people laugh and keep everything rough, rugged, and raw. With the help of DJBooth and Dub MD, Larue was able to make the project come to life... With the collection of Samuel Jackson's best known quotes from 1972-Present Day, infused and brought to life by Columbus, Ohio's own DJ Bern on the cuts. This project also features some incredible production and features with the likes of M-Dot, Revalation and Add-2, and the bulk of production handled by Fliccs, Severe and Onederkid. 01.)

Welliver's work on view in Asheville
Published: Sunday, October 16, 2005 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, October 16, 2005 at 12:00 a.m.
ASHEVILLE -- The Asheville Art Museum will present "Neil Welliver: Cycles of Nature" through Jan. 8
The unromaticized wilderness of the Maine woods has been the source of Welliver's inspiration for over three decades, Welliver's art depicts, with vivid immediacy, detail and economy, the magnificent everyday cycles of nature in a landscape untouched by man. His subjects include rushing icy water in thawing spring streams, boulder strewn hills, groves of birch and old growth spruce, verdant leaves of spring and reflections of autumn foliage.
Welliver creates great space and depth with gestural strokes of pure color against pure color, each mark defining a form while simultaneously asserting the flatness of the picture plane.
Welliver, born in rural Pennsylvania, attended the Philadelphia Museum College of Art and the Yale School of Art. At Yale he studied with and taught for Josef Albers, whom he considered his most important influence.
The museum is at 2 S. Pack Square, Asheville. Admission is $6 for adults and $5 for seniors, students with ID and for children 4 to 15 (children age 3 and younger are admitted free). For more information, call 253-3227.

All in the Timing
Fourteen Plays
Vintage, Paperback, 9780679759287, 336pp.
Publication Date: November 8, 1994
The world according to David Ives is a very add place, and his plays constitute a virtual stress test of the English language -- and of the audience's capacity for disorientation and delight. Ives's characters plunge into black holes called "Philadelphias," where the simplest desires are hilariously thwarted. Chimps named Milton, Swift, and Kafka are locked in a room and made to re-create Hamlet. And a con man peddles courses in a dubious language in which "hello" translates as "velcro" and "fraud" comes out as "freud."
At once enchanting and perplexing, incisively intelligent and side-splittingly funny, this original paperback edition of Ives's plays includes "Sure Thing," "Words, Words, Words," "The Universal Language," "Variations on the Death of Trotsky," "The Philadelphia," "Long Ago and Far Away," "Foreplay, or The Art of the Fugue," "Seven Menus," "Mere Mortals," "English Made Simple," "A Singular Kinda Guy," "Speed-the-Play," "Ancient History," and "Philip Glass Buys a Loaf of Bread."
David Ives is an Artistic Associate at Encores!, the celebrated forum for great American musicals at City Center, New York, where to date he has adapted 15 of their shows. He adapted David Copperfield's "Dreams and Nightmares" for Broadway, wrote the book for "Dance of the Vampires," the Jim Steinman Broadway musical, and is the co-bookwriter of "Irving Berlin's White Christmas," which premiered in San Francisco to huge acclaim in winter 2004. He lives in New York City with his wife Martha.
"Theater that aerobicizes the brain and tickles the heart...Ives is a mordant comic who has put the play back in playwright." -- Time

Randy Travis Returns to the Grand Ole Opry
More than two years after the medical crisis that almost took his life, Randy Travis made his return to the Grand Ole Opry on Friday night (Sept. 25).
More than two years after the medical crisis that almost took his life, Randy Travis made his return to the Grand Ole Opry on Friday night (Sept. 25).
You and I have a date on Sunday August 23rd at 11 am for the Sunday Morning Country Classic Spotlight where we will be featuring Randy Travis.
Randy Travis' 56 years have brought a catalog of hits and life lessons. The singer had help pulling himself out of a trouble during his formative years in North Carolina, and again when it was time to begin recovery from a devastating stroke. His music brings peace, but his story brings guidance.
Randy Travis was among the guests at Joe Nichols' concert at Billy Bob's Texas in Fort Worth on Saturday (Nov. 22). The country legend visited with Nichols, and even treated the 'Yeah' singer's family to a barbecue dinner.
It's been more than a year since Randy Travis had a stroke, and his fiancee says he is continuing to make great strides in his recovery.
Calling all Randy Travis fans! Join me Sunday, October 26th, at 11 am when I look back at the life and music of Randy Travis.
Randy Travis made a rare public appearance this week, marking one of the few times the country legend has been seen in public since his stroke last year.
Randy Travis has released a new music video for his song, 'Don't Worry 'Bout Me,' but the singer doesn't actually appear in the video.
Randy Travis is gearing up to release a new 13-track album, 'Influence Vol. 2: The Man I Am,' this August.
After suffering a stroke last July, Randy Travis may finally be on a road to recovery.
Reports have been mixed about Randy Travis's recovery after he suffered a stroke last summer. Recent reports say that the singer is no longer able to speak.
Randy Travis stepped out in public -- a rarity since his 2013 stroke -- for his friend Dolly Parton's concert.

A new report out of the U.S. Senate that reveals illegal immigrants received up to $750 million in healthcare subsidies is sure to make waves.
A state of emergency has been declared in four Florida counties — Miami-Dade, Hillsborough, Lee, and Santa Rosa — after nine people were diagnosed with the Zika virus. While the nine people are believed to have contracted the virus while out of the country, Florida's governor, Rick Scott, said he wants the state to be on high alert.
NFIB Offers Alternatives to ObamaCareWritten by Steve Byas
The National Federation of Independent Business lost their lawsuit against ObamaCare before the Supreme Court, but it continues to offer alternatives to government-run healthcare.
The World Health Organization (WHO) declared Monday that the Zika virus is a public health emergency of international concern, as it is suspected of causing significant birth defects. The designation is only the fourth one ever to be made by the WHO and paves the way to increase funding and manpower to stop the spread of the virus, which has already made its way to the United States. But while the WHO struggles to find a way to contain the virus, some contend that the 2001 worldwide ban on DDT for agricultural uses has allowed mosquito-borne pathogens such as this to run rampant and that the ban should be permanently lifted.
Emergency rooms across the country are facing a severe shortage of drugs, many of which are necessary to save lives — and, as usual, government is largely to blame.

Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Bio-Rad Laboratories released its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. Fourth-quarter reported revenues were $573.8 million, up 4.3% compared to $550.2 million reported for the fourth quarter of 2011. On a currency-neutral basis, quarterly revenues increased 6.1% compared to the same period in 2011. Fourth-quarter gross margin was 55.9% compared to 56.5% during the same quarter in 2011.
Net income for the fourth quarter of 2012 was $47.5 million, or $1.65 per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to $59.2 million, or $2.08 per share, respectively, during the same period in 2011. These results include a one-time gain of $4.3 million resulting from the sale of real property.
For the full year, sales were $2,069.2 million compared to $2,073.5 million in 2011. After normalizing for the impact of currency effects, full-year revenues increased 3.6%.
Full-year net income was $169.2 million, or $5.91 per share on a fully diluted basis, compared to $178.2 million, or $6.26 per share, respectively, in 2011. The decrease in net income reflects lower gross margins and an increase in R&D expense. Full-year gross margin was 56.1% compared to 56.8% reported in 2011. Incremental gross profit for 2012 was impacted by additional amortization expense of $10.0 million related to acquisitions. Earnings were favorably impacted by a $16.1 million reduction in the valuation of contingent consideration associated with the Quantalife acquisition as well as an increase in other income resulting from certain investment gains.
"As we had expected, full-year results reflect macroeconomic challenges, which impacted many of our markets. Looking ahead to 2013, we anticipate a similar economic environment," said Norman Schwartz, Bio-Rad's president and CEO.

MDMA (commonly known as the empathogen "ecstasy") is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, which is reserved for compounds with no accepted medical use and a high abuse potential. Two researchers from Stanford, however, call for a rigorous scientific exploration of MDMA's effects to identify precisely how the drug works, the data from which could be used to develop therapeutic compounds.Do you agree that ecstasy should be studied for its potential therapeutic benefits?

Ghirardelli chocolate melts evenly and cooks perfectly. The chocolate is authentic with no artificial flavors like hershey's. Hershey's uses a grade B chocolate by the way which is grown to be highly resistant to disease and has double the shelf life than the chocolate used by Ghirardelli. Hershey's chocolate is subsisted with artificial ingredients and corn flavorings, corn preservatives, and corn sweeteners...and it tastes that way. Ghirardelli's chocolate has a deep creamy flavor even in the milk chocolate. Their 60% cocoa chips are a rich and deep chocolate of the cacao beans.

Spicy Sausage and White Bean Soup
You could use other greens, like kale or collard greens—just be sure to cook them in the soup for 5 minutes before serving, since they're more hearty than the spinach.
Cannellini Beans with Spinach
If there is a lot of liquid in the pan when the spinach is done, drain it before adding the beans.

Running Time: 77
Director: Louie Lewis
Company: Caballero
Cast: Joey Silvera, Mike Horner, Debi Diamond, Gina Martell, Paul Thomas, Herschel Savage, Laurie Smith, Juliet Anderson, Eric Edwards, Jamie Gillis, Janey Robbins, Billy Dee
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Golden Age
It's an American classic - sort of - and customers should love its kitsch value.
This odd film gets a half-A kick for being a superior rip-off of Martha Coolidge's mainstream hit Valley Girl, which came out that same year. This film is so good/bad that most viewers won't be able to make heads or tails of the "Val-speak" dialog.
Debi Diamond, credited here as "Shelly Rey," excels at "giving derrs" (blowjobs), but even better is Sharon Mitchell, who does a hot 69 with Gina Martell, and polishes off with an excellent doggie/reverse cowgirl/spoon with go-go dancer Billy Dee.

The aim of this study is to develop a tecnique able to support the retrieval of the buildings height from SAR images.
In particular, an automatic method, which allows to evaluate the orientation angle of buildings in respect to the projection on the ground of the flight line of the radar platform, has been developed.
The starting point was the algorithm output that allows to identify and extract from SAR images the double scattering contribution whose intensity is linked to the geometrical and electromagnetic parameters of the buildings.
On SAR images, the double scattering contributions turn out to be misaligned dots, so, before evaluating the slope of the straight line of double scattering, a linear regression operation was necessary, starting from the knowledge of the coordinates of each pixel belonging to the line of double scattering.
Given the prospective presence of outliers, the absolute deviation instead of the standard deviation has been used.

News Wanna Go to Mars?

The European Space Agency is looking for six people to spend a year and a half inside a small, simulated "spacecraft." The volunteers will have to perform tasks and react to "emergencies" just as though they were real astronauts on a trip to mars. They will not be allowed out, and will only communicate with "Earth" via a time-delayed radio. This will help the agency figure out how people will react in a confined space for a long period of time. They have not, apparently, been watching Big Brother.
Sorry, only citizens of the European Union and Canada will be considered.
