Calif. has 1 real estate licensee for every 33 homes
Despite a big drop in the number of people with real estate licenses, California still has 41 percent more real estate licensees these days than at the bottom of the housing market's last downturn in the 1990's, state figures show.
[caption id="attachment_168882" align="alignright" width="300"] Click to enlarge[/caption]
As of October, the state had 418,000 people with a real estate license, or one agent for every 33 housing units, according to figures from the state departments of Real Estate and Finance.
That's less crowded than at the height of the housing bubble. The state had one agent for every 24 housing units when the number of licenses peaked at nearly 550,000 in November 2007, state figures show.
But after the market slowdown of the 1990s, the state had the equivalent of one agent for every 41 housing units. Licenses fell to a low of 295,000 in December 1998, state figures show.
Not all real estate licensees become active agents. A 2006 study by the Register and Brea housing consultant Pat Veling showed that just 13 percent of Orange County licensees represented 94 percent of all homes sold in the county.
In addition, nearly two-thirds of California's real estate licensees don't belong to the California Association of Realtors, the state's leading real estate trade group. A CAR spokeswoman said the group had 156,000 members in October.

AT&T confirms iPhone on track for late June launchApple Inc. remains on track to ship the first of its iPhone mobile handsets in the U.S. by the end of June, a high ranking executive for wireless carrier AT&T confirmed Wednesday.
"Our expectations are good. Our testing has been good," said AT&T Chief Operating Officer Randall Stephenson. "The iPhone is on target to launch in June."
Stephenson's comments come in the face of recent and unsubstantiated blog reports, which speculated that the touch-enabled mobile communications device could be delayed due to technical issues.
Speaking at a Boston College Chief Executives' Club luncheon attended by Reuters, the AT&T exec reiterated that his firm, which has an exclusive deal to sell the highly anticipated Apple handset in the U.S., has received over a million inquiries from customers eager to purchase the device.
At the same time, however, Stephenson could not say how many iPhones would immediately be available upon launch.
"We're sorting through that right now," he said. "We got a million people waiting to buy it so we're hoping we get a million."

This application is related to pending application Ser. No. 09/416,364 filed Oct. 8, 1999 and titled "MAGNETIC RECORDING MEDIA WITH ANTIFERROMAGNETICALLY COUPLED FERROMAGNETIC FILMS AS THE RECORDING LAYER", now U.S. Pat. No. 6,280,813, which is incorporated herein by reference.
This invention relates generally to magnetic recording media, and more particularly to a magnetic recording disk with an antiferromagnetically-coupled (AFC) magnetic recording layer of the type described in the above-cited co-pending application.
Conventional magnetic recording media, such as the magnetic recording disks in hard disk drives, typically use a granular ferromagnetic layer, such as a sputter-deposited cobalt-platinum (CoPt) alloy, as the recording medium. Each magnetized domain in the magnetic layer is comprised of many small magnetic grains. The transitions between magnetized domains represent the "bits" of the recorded data. IBM's U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,789,598 and 5,523,173 describe this type of conventional rigid disk.
As the storage density of magnetic recording disks has increased, the product of the remanent magnetization Mr (where Mr is measured in units of magnetic moment per unit volume of ferromagnetic material) and the magnetic layer thickness t has decreased. Similarly, the coercive field or coercivity (Hc) of the magnetic layer has increased. This has led to a decrease in the ratio Mrt/Hc. To achieve the reduction in Mrt, the thickness t of the magnetic layer can be reduced, but only to a limit because the stored magnetic information in the layer will be more likely to decay. This decay of the magnetization has been attributed to thermal activation of small magnetic grains (the superparamagnetic effect). The thermal stability of a magnetic grain is to a large extent determined by KuV, where Ku is the magnetic anisotropy constant of the layer and V is the volume of the magnetic grain. As the layer thickness is decreased, V decreases. If the layer thickness is too thin, the stored magnetic information will no longer be stable at normal disk drive operating conditions.
One approach to the solution of this problem is to move to a higher anisotropy material (higher Ku). However, the increase in Ku is limited by the point where the coercivity Hc, which is approximately equal to Ku/Ms (Ms=saturation magnetization), becomes too great to be written by a conventional recording head. A similar approach is to reduce the Ms of the magnetic layer for a fixed layer thickness, which will reduce Mr since Mr is related to Ms, but this is also limited by the coercivity that can be written. Another solution is to increase the intergranular exchange, so that the effective magnetic volume V of the magnetic grains is increased. However, this approach has been shown to be deleterious to the intrinsic signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the magnetic layer.
IBM's previously cited co-application describes a magnetic recording medium wherein the magnetic recording layer is at least two ferromagnetic films antiferromagnetically coupled together across a nonferromagnetic spacer film. In this type of magnetic media, referred to as AFC media, the magnetic moments of the two antiferromagnetically-coupled films are oriented antiparallel, with the result that the net remanent magnetization-thickness product (Mrt) of the recording layer is the difference in the Mrt values of the two ferromagnetic films. This reduction in Mrt is accomplished without a reduction in volume V. Therefore the thermal stability of the recording medium is not reduced. In one embodiment of the AFC medium the ferromagnetic films are sputter deposited CoPtCrB alloy films separated by a Ru spacer film that has a thickness to maximize the antiferromagnetic coupling between the two CoPtCrB films. One of the ferromagnetic films is made thicker than the other, but the thicknesses are chosen so that the net moment in zero applied magnetic field is low, but nonzero.
AFC media is to be distinguished from conventional "laminated" media, wherein two or more magnetic layers are spaced apart by an nonmagnetic spacer layer so that the magnetic layers are deliberately magnetically decoupled. It is known that substantially improved SNR can be achieved by the use of laminated media. The reduction in intrinsic media noise by lamination is believed due to a decoupling of the magnetic interaction or exchange coupling between the magnetic layers in the laminate. This discovery was made by S. E. Lambert, et al., "Reduction of Media Noise in Thin Film Metal Media by Lamination", IEEE Transactions on Magnetics, Vol. 26, No. 5, September 1990, pp. 2706-2709, and subsequently patented in IBM's U.S. Pat. No. 5,051,288. IBM's more recent U.S. Pat. No. 6,077,586 describes a laminated disk with special seed layers and magnetically decoupled boron-containing ferromagnetic layers.
In general, adding more layers to a disk structure adds complexity to the manufacturing process. Because AFC media require a larger number of sputtering stations due to the larger number of layers that must be sputtered, it may be necessary to substantially modify the existing disk manufacturing line. In addition, the use of a boron-containing alloy like CoPtCrB in the AFC films, which is necessary for high performance media, requires the use of a special onset or nucleation layer to enhance the growth of the CoPtCrB films so that the C-axis of these films is in the plane of the films. The nucleation layer, which is typically a nonferromagnetic CoCr alloy, requires still another sputtering station in the manufacturing line.
What is needed is AFC media that possesses high performance magnetic properties but does not require the addition of sputtering stations to the existing manufacturing line.
The invention is an AFC disk wherein the lower ferromagnetic film in the AFC recording layer is a boron-free ferromagnetic CoCr alloy that does not require a nucleation layer between it and the Cr or Cr alloy underlayer. The ferromagnetic CoCr alloy has sufficient saturation magnetization (Ms) and grain structure to produce excellent magnetic recording performance for the AFC recording layer, while also serving as a nucleation layer to induce the in-plane C-axis growth of the top boron-containing ferromagnetic film through the spacer layer.
For a fuller understanding of the nature and advantages of the present invention, reference should be made to the following detailed description taken together with the accompanying figures.
FIG. 1 is a schematic sectional view of an AFC magnetic recording disk as described in the previously cited co-pending application.
FIG. 2 is a schematic sectional view of an AFC magnetic recording disk according to the present invention.
General Structure of an AFC Disk
The magnetic recording disk of the present invention is of the type that has a magnetic recording layer made of two or more ferromagnetic films that are coupled antiferromagnetically (AF) to their neighboring ferromagnetic films by one or more nonferromagnetic spacer films. FIG. 1 illustrates the cross sectional structure of a disk 10 with an antiferromagnetically-coupled (AFC) magnetic layer 20.
The disk substrate 11 is any suitable material, such as glass, SiC/Si, ceramic, quartz, or an AlMg alloy base with a NiP surface coating. The seed layer 12 is an optional layer that may be used to improve the growth of the underlayer 13. The seed layer 12 is most commonly used when the substrate 11 is nonmetallic, such as glass. The seed layer 12 has a thickness in the range of approximately 1 to 50 nm and is one of the materials, such as Ta, CrTi, NiAl or RuAl, which are useful as seed materials for promoting the growth of subsequently deposited layers in certain preferred crystalline orientations. A pre-seed layer (not shown) may also be used between the glass substrate 11 and the seed layer 12. The underlayer 13 is deposited onto the seed layer, if present, or otherwise directly onto the substrate 11, and is a nonmagnetic material such as chromium or a chromium alloy, such as CrV or CrTi. The underlayer 13 has a thickness in the range of 5 to 100 nm with a typical value being approximately 10 nm.
The AFC magnetic layer 20 is made up of two ferromagnetic films 22, 24 separated by a nonferromagnetic spacer film 26. The nonferromagnetic spacer film 26 thickness and composition are chosen so that the magnetic moments 32, 34 of adjacent films 22, 24, respectively, are AF-coupled through the nonferromagnetic spacer film 26 and are antiparallel in zero applied field. The two AF-coupled films 22, 24 of layer 20 have magnetic moments that are oriented antiparallel, with the upper film 22 having a larger moment. The ferromagnetic films 22, 24 are made of a CoPtCrB alloy with 4 to 20 atomic percent (at. %) platinum, 10 to 23 at. % chromium and 2 to 20 at. % boron. The nonferromagnetic spacer film 26 is ruthenium (Ru).
Because the first ferromagnetic film 24 of the AFC magnetic layer 20 is a boron-containing CoPtCrB alloy, a very thin (typically 1 to 5 nm) Co alloy onset or nucleation layer 14 is deposited on the underlayer 13. The nucleation layer 14 has a composition selected to enhance the growth of the hexagonal close-packed (HCP) CoPtCrB alloy of film 24 so that its C-axis is oriented in the plane of the film. The proper crystalline structure of the first CoPtCrB film 24 in turn enhances the growth of the second CoPtCrB film 22, through the Ru spacer film 26, to also have its C-axis in-plane. If the CoPtCrB film 24 were grown directly on the Cr alloy underlayer 13 without a nucleation layer, then it would not grow with its C-axis in the plane of the film, which would result in poor recording performance. It is well known that the presence of boron is important for achieving small grains in the recording layer, which is necessary for high performance media. Therefore, the nucleation layer 14 allows use of boron-containing alloys as the recording layer and is an essential layer in the disk structure. The nucleation layer 14 typically is a nonferromagnetic Co alloy, and in the preferred embodiment is a CoCr alloy with Cr>=31 atomic percent (at %). This CoCr composition produces a phase which is nonferromagnetic or slightly ferromagnetic.
The AF coupling of ferromagnetic films via a nonferromagnetic transition metal spacer film, like the structure of layer 20 in FIG. 1, has been extensively studied and described in the literature. In general, the exchange coupling oscillates from ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic with increasing spacer film thickness. This oscillatory coupling relationship for selected material combinations is described by Parkin et al. in "Oscillations in Exchange Coupling and Magnetoresistance in Metallic Superlattice Structures: Co/Ru, Co/Cr and Fe/Cr", Phys. Rev. Lett., Vol. 64, p. 2034 (1990). The material combinations include ferromagnetic films made of Co, Fe, Ni, and their alloys, such as Ni—Fe, Ni—Co, and Fe—Co, and nonferromagnetic spacer films such as Ru, chromium (Cr), rhodium (Rh), iridium (Ir), copper (Cu), and their alloys. For each such material combination, the oscillatory exchange coupling relationship has to be determined, if not already known, so that the thickness of the nonferromagnetic spacer film is selected to assure antiferromagnetic coupling between the two ferromagnetic films. The period of oscillation depends on the. nonferromagnetic spacer material, but the strength and phase of the oscillatory coupling also depends on the ferromagnetic material and interfacial quality.
For this AFC structure of layer 20 the orientations of the magnetic moments 32, 34 of adjacent films 22, 24, respectively, are aligned antiparallel and thus add destructively. The arrows 32, 34 represent the moment orientations of individual magnetic domains that are directly above and below one another across the AF coupling film 26.
While FIG. 1 is shown for an AFC magnetic layer 20 with a two-film structure and a single spacer film, the AFC disk may have additional ferromagnetic films with AF-coupling spacer films between the ferromagnetic films.
Structure of an AFC Disk with a Boron-Free Lower Ferromagnetic Film as a Nucleation Layer
High performance commercially available disks using glass substrates and CoPtCrB single-layer magnetic layers can require of six layers. These layers are a pre-seed layer on the glass substrate (not shown in FIG. 1), the seed layer, the underlayer, the nonferromagnetic (or slightly ferromagnetic) CoCr nucleation layer, the CoPtCrB magnetic layer, and the protective overcoat. Common manufacturing sputtering tools, such as the Circulus M12, currently have only seven stations available for actual sputter deposition, assuming the use of two heating stations and one cooling station. Since the AFC magnetic layer replaces the single magnetic layer with three layers, the total number of sputtering cathodes needed to create an AFC disk is eight. This number is larger than is currently available on the Circulus M12 configured as described above. Other types of manufacturing sputter tools may also have a limited number of sputtering cathodes, which makes implementation of AFC media difficult.
The present invention shows that certain materials can serve the dual purpose of acting as the lower ferromagnetic film in the AFC layer as well as facilitating the in-plane C-axis growth of the second CoPtCrB film through the Ru spacer layer. This allows a combination of the nucleation layer and the lower ferromagnetic film of the AFC layer into one layer and therefore only one sputtering cathode is required. This reduces the total number of sputtered layers in the AFC disk structure, thereby overcoming potential manufacturability problems.
To have a layer that acts as both an onset or nucleation layer and the lower layer in the AFC structure, a material is needed which is a Co-alloy, is able to grow epitaxially on an oriented Cr alloy with its C-axis in the plane of the film, and can perform well as the lower ferromagnetic film in the AFC magnetic recording layer. In the present invention it has been demonstrated that such a material is ferromagnetic Co78Cr22, which has a saturation magnetization (Ms) of 425 emu/cc. X-ray diffraction results showed that for an AFC structure grown on a conventional underlayer, using a Co78Cr22 ferromagnetic film directly on the underlayer, a Ru spacer layer directly on the Co78Cr22 film, and a CoPtCrB film directly on the Ru spacer layer, the C-axis of the CoPtCrB was in the plane of the film. When a single CoPtCrB film with an Mrt of 0.32 memu/cm2 was grown directly on a Co78Cr22 film with an Mrt of 0.1 memu/cm2 the measured Mrt was 0.43 memu/cm2, which is very close to the sum of the Mrt of the two layers. When the same type of CoPtCrB film was grown on a Ru layer of the thickness needed to obtain AF coupling, which in turn was grown directly on the same type of Co78Cr22 film, the resulting structure had a Mrt of 0.22 memu/cm2. This value is the difference of the Mrt values of the two films and shows that AF coupling is present.
It has also been found that the CoCrx alloys with 14<�<22 produce excellent magnetic properties when used as the bottom ferromagnetic film in an AFC recording layer. This was not expected since it is known that a minimum concentration of Cr (usually at least 18 at. %) is needed for grain boundary segregation, which in turn is needed to enable independent switching of the magnetization of the grains. Because these CoCr alloys have a high moment, thinner bottom ferromagnetic films can be used to achieve the desired Mrt. It has been discovered that the thickness of the first ferromagnetic film has a significant effect on the SNR of the resulting AFC structure. Measured SNR for AFC media, all of which had a top ferromagnetic film of CoPt12Cr18B8, but in which the lower CoCr ferromagnetic films were of various thicknesses and Cr compositions (Cr between 14 and 20 at. %) have shown that the lower film of CoCr should have a thickness between 1.5 and 3.5 nm to optimize SNR of the AFC media.
In addition, the ratio of the isolated signal pulse to noise (SoNR) at 15000 flux reversals/millimeter of recorded transitions in a single layer film, using a conventional nonferromagnetic Co69Cr31 nucleation layer, was 29.8 dB, while the SoNR of an AFC disk using Co78Cr22 as the first ferromagnetic film and the same type of CoPtCrB material as the second ferromagnetic film, was 31.3 dB. The isolated pulse width (PW50) for these two disks was 122 nm and 116 nm, respectively. This data shows that the AFC disk with Co78Cr22 as the first ferromagnetic film grown directly on the Cr alloy underlayer has high magnetic recording performance.
FIG. 2 shows the preferred structure of the AFC disk 10′ according to the invention. The thicknesses and compositions for the various layers in this preferred embodiment are as follows:
Pre-seed layer: Al50Ti50 (20-50 nm)
Seed Layer 12: Ru50Al50 (8-20 nm)
Underlayer 13: Cr50Ti10 (6-20 nm)
Lower AFC Film 24′ directly on underlayer 13:
Co(100−x)Crx with 11<x<25, or
Co(100−y−x)PtyCrx, with 0<y<15 and 11<x<25, or
Co(100−y−x−z)PtyCrxTaz with 0<y<20, 11<x<22 and 2<z<6
Spacer Layer 26: Ru or Cr (0.4-1.0 nm)
Top AFC Film 22: Co(100−y−x−z)PtyCrxBz with 6<y<25, 10<x<25, 6<z<15.
In the preferred embodiment the ferromagnetic CoCr alloy that serves as the bottom AFC film without the need for a special nucleation layer has a composition with Cr between approximately 11 and 25 atomic percent. The Cr concentration is determined primarily by the thickness and Mrt desired for the bottom AFC film. Since the concentration of Cr determines the Ms of the CoCr alloy, it determines the Mrt of the CoCr film for a given thickness. The desired thickness of the CoCr film is determined by optimum film growth and recording performance. The upper limit is the amount around which the Ms of the CoCr alloy is insufficient for high performance recording.
In addition to this preferred binary alloy of only Co and Cr, the lower ferromagnetic film may also be a ternary or quarternary alloy of CoCr with one or more of platinum (Pt) and tantalum (Ta). The Pt may be a desired additive if more anisotropy is desired in the lower film and the Ta may be a desired additive if more grain isolation is desired. The concentrations of 0<Pt<15 and 2<Ta<6 have been determined to be the typical ranges which have successfully achieved these purposes.
While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to the preferred embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be made without departing from the spirit, scope, and teaching of the invention.

Ashton Kutcher pulled the plug on "Punk'd" last month, but he'll soon be back on MTV playing hidden-camera practical jokes on hapless saps. According to the Hollywood Reporter, he's planning a new series called "My New Best Friend." Based on a British TV show of the same name, the series will have a premise that sounds awfully similar to Fox's upcoming "My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance." In Kutcher's show, for which MTV has yet to set an airdate, a contestant can win cash by trying to fool friends and family by passing off a complete stranger – an improv actor hired by the show and directed to behave boorishly – as his or her new best bud. (At least the contestant doesn't have to take the deception all the way to the altar, as on Fox.) Kutcher, who announced last month that he was yanking "Punk'd" before it had the chance to get tired, will produce "Best Friend" but not appear on camera. Guess that means we won't be seeing the episode where he fools the world by trying to pass off a celebrated middle-aged actress as his new girlfriend.

Tweet a lot? Then you're probably SELF-OBSESSED: Narcissists use Twitter the most because they crave approval
- Study by High Point University, North Carolina, said narcissism appears to be a primary driver for the desire for Twitter followers
- Adult narcissists prefer to post their news on Facebook while Millennials' status updates are less likely to reflect narcissistic tendencies
We all know someone who tweets about the minute details of their life every 10 minutes and now new research suggests that are displaying narcissistic tendencies.
U.S. researchers claim narcissists tweet more often than others and crave followers on Twitter to meet their need for approval.
They also found that narcissists update their Facebook status more regularly and vain adults prefer to post content on Facebook, rather than Twitter.
U.S. researchers found that people with narcissistic tendencies like to cultivate a large following on Twitter to meet their need for approval. Celebrities including Miley Cyrus regularly share their activities on the social network
A study by the University of Michigan that was published in June, found that middle-aged narcissists are more likely to frequently update their Facebook status, while their younger counterparts take to Twitter to satisfy their vanity.
According to Elliot Panek, middle-aged people use Facebook as a way of gaining approval of their image from their peers, while college students prefer Twitter because they over-value their own opinions.
He said: 'Middle-aged adults usually have already formed their social selves, and they use social media to gain approval from those who are already in their social circles.'
According to the study, Twitter acts as a megaphone for younger web users.
Mr Panek said: 'Through Twitter they're trying to broaden their social circles and broadcast their views about a wide range of topics and issues.'
Shaun Davenport of High Point University, North Carolina, told Pacific Standard: 'Narcissism does appear to be a primary driver for the desire for (Twitter) followers, which in turn drives tweets.'
He found that students with narcissistic tendencies tend to prefer to tweet to attract attention and consequently like to have as many followers as possible.
However, adult narcissists prefer to post their news on Facebook, suggesting a generational divide, according to the study in the journal Computers in Human Behaviour.
The research found Millennials (people born between the early 1980s to the early 2000s) post Facebook statuses more regularly and are less likely to reflect narcissistic motives.
Adult narcissists prefer to post their news on Facebook while Millennial's status updates are less likely to reflect narcissistic tendencies, according to the study
Together with his colleagues, he conducted an online survey of 515 college students and 669 adults, all of whom embraced social media.
They filled out a survey rating their narcissistic tendencies and said how many times they tweeted and updated their Facebook status on a typical day.
Narcissism was found to be 'a stronger predictor of Twitter active usage than Facebook active usage,' according to the study.
Narcissism was found to be 'a stronger predictor of Twitter active usage than Facebook active usage,' according to the study
'We found no significant direct or indirect relationship with active usage on Facebook for the college students,' the researchers said.
However, they did find that narcissism was linked to Facebook activity among adults, suggesting that narcissists on the social network are more likely to be of Generation X or baby boomers than Millennials.
They believe this could be because Millennials partly grew up using Facebook to communicate with others, just as previous generations used a phone.
However, older people who have gained access to the tool need more reason to post a status update and narcissism is one of the reasons to do so.

Namsong (531 namsong fanfics)
Chapter Count
One Shots
Autumn is the season of romance, of love, and reunion.
YG is dead. Winner is invited in for questioning.
So this will tackle on depression mostly and insecurities but I also want to make it darkly humorous. 2 Boys that find something they were missing in one another.
Bobby is definitely not jealous. Not for the way Mino looks at Taehyun with so much love. Nor for the way Taehyun's eyes crinkle up at every stupid jo
A consolidation of all my one shots for easy reading and the subsequent new one shots will be here as well... I hope you enjoy it even though these are stories already posted before... :)
NamSong drabbles / short stories, all oneshots :)
In the world with no magic, somehow sirens do exist. Luring sailors to their ultimate death is their survival, yet two lives change when one siren meets captain Mino.
Mino is the prince of Pollux and Taehyun is the prince of Castor. When the kings of both countries are murdered, the relationship between the two countries turned for the worst. Will the new kings Mino and Taehyun be able to mend the ties? Or will this not only be the end of the friendship between Pollux and Castor but between Mino and Taehyun as well?
A bartender and a confused fictional character, trying to stay alive together in a world full of insignificant horror and fine humor. Not your typical vampire story.
Nam Taehyun is a independent artist living in a crappy neighborhood in Seoul. Song Mino is a rich businessman with a dark past. They have different lives, but there is a little someone who strongly connects both of them.
It is a cheesy title... I at naming them but I think you can pretty much guess from the title... :)
Minho has been having certain feelings for his best friend, and one night he finally decides to act on them.
He broke his heart three years ago... He does not quite understand the situation they are in right now... Has he changed? ~~~~~ "Let's have an affair, friends with benefits as you might like to call it..."
In order to follow his dreams, Nam Taehyun has to break up with his boyfriend, Song Mino. And that's exactly what he does. He's okay, but Mino is not. He's happy, but Mino is miserable. He'll suffer, but Mino won't be there anymore.
Detective Song is in need of a partner for his last case, but said partner is rather far from being lawful.
Mino is angry, taehyun is adorable.
Grim Reapers are ancient creatures of the underworld. They belong to hell, but not quite stay there. They are wise, confident and do their job with maximum professionalism without doubts. Or do they?
After getting caught by his parents, Taehyun was sent to Korea to live with his aunt. There, he was forced to move on and make a new start with his life. Moving on wasn't easy at all for Taehyun because he still loved Mino. Their relationship for 3 years had a great impact on his life and he had never loved anyone so much like how he loved Mino. There was nothing he could do but he was really sorry and sad
Jinwoo's life working as a paramedic in the ever growing city of Seoul has never been easy. But after a leathal disease started spreading through the population didn't his life become any easier. One night after a particularily bad day at work is it that he encounters someone who might be able to give him some answers to everything that has happened lately. Why is it that after countless encounters with people perishing from the disease, that he never got infected?
Lady Choi Seungkwan was a practical person. He was also a fraud. Lord Chwe Hansol was a fake Noble. He was also not beyond blackmailing someone for his own gains.

|Company News
Ahead of the tenth edition of Art Dubai and the fifth edition of Design Days Dubai later this month, an independent report has revealed that the events contributed $35 million to the local economy last year.
The report was commissioned by the Art Dubai Group, a joint venture with the DIFC, that owns and manages the art and design fairs, festivals and programming.
Produced by Repucom, the report combines research and feedback from local and international art world professionals, gallerists and members of the public, a statement said.
The Economic Impact survey also showed that visitors during Art Week paid for 27,500 hotel nights, with an average of 5.7 nights per stay.
It revealed that 25,000 visits were made to Art Dubai and Design Days Dubai over its six event days by 15,625 unique attendees.
More than half (51 percent) of attendees were from outside Dubai while Art Dubai and Design Days Dubai effected an estimated 6,000 art and design purchases, it added.
In addition to the economic impact of Art Dubai and Design Days Dubai on the city, the report showed the company's umbrella event Art Week, has great importance to the Dubai arts industry with as much as 60 percent of local art organisations' annual sales revenue made during Art Week alone.
"Our research shows that the Art Dubai Group sets the standard for cultural events in the region, bringing significant social and economic benefits to Dubai," said Jon Long, managing director Middle East, of Repucom.
Benedict Floyd, co-founder and CEO of The Art Dubai Group, added: "Drawing international attention for local arts organisations, galleries, home-grown partners and artists, Art Week, Design Days Dubai and Art Dubai have established a significant moment in the cultural calendar for the region, as well as recognition from the international art market."
Art Dubai 2016 will be the meeting point for over 500 artists from nearly 100 galleries, coming from 40 countries across the world.
