a research noteHansen, Torben (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: In the consumer behaviour literature several perspectives on consumer decision making have been considered, including the 'value perspective', the 'information processing perspective', the 'emotional perspective', and 'cue utilization theory'. In this paper, a framework which integrates several perspectives on consumer decision making and which hypothesizes possible links between several basic constructs is developed. The framework is tested by the use of two experimental designs. The results of this study support the complexity of consumer decision making: (A) Consumers do not use their cognitive and affective skills independently, rather they affect each other; (B) the cognitive, evaluative constructs of quality and attitude had significant direct effects on buying intention in both experiments, whereas the affective construct of emotion had no significant effects on buying intention in both experiments; (C) price affected in both experiments perceived quality, which in turn affected attitude, which in turn affected buying intention. At the same time, price had no direct effect on buying intention. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6639

a TRA versus TPB ApproachHansen, Torben; Jensen, Jan Møller; Solgaard, Hans Stubbe (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper tests the ability of two consumer theories - the theory of reasoned action and the theory of planned behavior - in predicting consumer online grocery buying intention. In addition, a comparison of the two theories is conducted. Data were collected from two web-based surveys of Danish (n=1222) and Swedish (n=1038) consumers using self-administered questionnaires. Lisrel results suggest that the theory of planned behavior (with the inclusion of a path from subjective norm to attitude) provides the best fit to the data and explains the highest proportion of variation in online grocery buying intention.

Barriers and Motivators of Online Grocery Shopping in DenmarkFriese, Susanne; Bjerre, Mogens; Hansen, Torben; Kornum, Niels; Sestoft, Christine (København, 2003)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: I dette working paper præsenteres og diskuteres et e-læringskoncept: Pædagogisk Selvtræning. Først vises den medietekniske udformning. Dernæst præsenteres et læringsteoretisk grundlag for konceptet ud fra K. Illeris, 2001. Det starter ud fra de læringsprocesser (kognitive, psykodynamiske og sociale), som foregår i brugere af konceptet, lærere så vel som studerende. Ud fra denne model diskuteres, hvordan denne viden kan være vejledende for lærerens resp. den studerendes direkte aktivitet i klasselokalet. Problemet for brugeren (en lærer eller en student) er dels at diagnosticere situationen på holdet, ved eksamen e.l. og dels at finde/vælge en reaktionsmåde, der er relevant hertil. Det er disse kompetencer, Pædagogisk Selvtræning søger at udvikle. Til sidst diskuteres, hvordan Pædagogisk Selvtræning kan videreudvikles og indplaceres ift. andre, fx IT-baserede undervisningsformer. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/6647

Hansen, Torben (, 2012)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: Trust relates not only to customer trust in individual companies (i.e., narrow-scope trust) but also to the broader business context in which customer–seller relationships may develop (i.e., broad-scope trust [BST]). Based on two surveys comprising 1155 bank consumers and 817 insurance consumers, respectively, this study investigates the moderating influence of BST on relationships between satisfaction, narrow-scope trust, and loyalty and also examines the direct influence of BST on these variables. The results indicate that whereas BST negatively moderates relationships between satisfaction and narrow-scope trust and between narrow-scope trust and loyalty, BST positively moderates the relationship between satisfaction and loyalty. In addition, it is demonstrated that BST positively influences customer satisfaction and narrow-scope trust. C 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/8858

Game of Thrones is a site for the HBO-series based on George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire.
New to the series? Read our spoiler-free review of A Game of Thrones.
Read our Privacy Policy.
This weekend we shared an ITN report regarding Sean Bean filming in London for the spy thriller Cleanskin. In the article, ITN notes that the production is a six week shoot, which led us to speculate that most of Bean's scenes in HBO's Game of Thrones will have to wait until October. However, as a poster notes, Cleanskin actually started filming in late February.
The filming that ITN was covering was a brief, one day reshoot, and not a sign that Bean will be occupied for weeks with that production.
The Westeros network consists of several different sites, including a forum and a wiki, for all your A Song of Ice and Fire needs.

I did it!! W9D3 is DONE. I didn't do so badly on time, either, even though my legs felt like they were pushing through mud the entire way.
To amuse myself, I like to come up with silly rhymes while I'm running. So here is today's:
My nose is cold, my toes are numb,
Whoever said that running's fun?
The temp must be 'bout 10 below,
I'm sure I'll catch my death of cold.
It's dark right now, and misty too,
With fog as thick as split pea soup,
To think that I'm out here instead
Of snuggling in my nice, warm bed.
My lungs they burn, my chest it pounds,
My joints are creaking, what a sound!
My face is sweaty and it's red,
Was that a raindrop on my head?
Two laps to go, I'm almost through,
The fog has gone, the dark clouds too,
The sun is warm, the sky is blue,
And did I say I'm almost through?
It's over now, my workout's done,
I've finished yet another run!
I've feeling in my hands and feet,
It doesn't hurt so much to breathe…
I feel great! I really do!
I really love to run, it's true!
I just can't wait to get outside,
To hit the road and find my stride!
If you've read my past posts, you know that I don't actually find running all that fun. However, I'm hoping that if I keep telling myself that it is, and keep working at it, then perhaps one of these days I will believe it.
Good luck, everyone! I'll keep checking in to see how y'all are doing!
Maureen, thank you for the encouragement! And thank you for being so motivational!!! I also liked your story about the squirrel. haha. I know you weren't directing that towards me, but I think if everyone else is like me, we were all revved up about running after we read that! Congrats on your knee feeling better, by the way!
Well, I bought some dr.scholls arch inserts to go into my daytime shoes, and I went to the doctor to get a recommendation for a podiatrist. I think if I wasn't running, I think would be fine getting along with arch supports and/or goodshoes (as I have for the past 5 years), but I am guessing the podiatrist will tell me that I need some good custom orthotics. And, I agree. I can never seem to get enough arch support on the inside of my injured foot. The Superfeet inserts that fleet feet sold me just aren't cutting it. But, I will make an appointment and see what he says!
Welcome Leigh Anne! You will definitely lose weight, but your leg muscles will get bigger and more toned from running!! I don't think that will be a problem though, as they should appear slimmer... which should help you get into those skinny jeans!
THAT IS THE BEST POEM EVER!!!! I can't believe you really came up with that while you were running!!! I am very impressed!!
edit: And congratulations on finishing!!!! Good job!!! Hopefully we will all be joining you soon as C25k Alumni!
Love that poem!!! Hope you don't mind I copied it and will be putting it on my inspiration board for my 1000 mi in 2013 group. A friend of mine started it on FB last year to get people aware of just moving and they are what inspired me to start the C25k.
Congrats on finishing! Did your daughter watch your last run? My daughter is running her own race (the kids race) when I do my first 5k this sunday. I'm hoping she continues a life of activity and doesn't have the problems I do. Keep us updated hoping everyone continues this thread even after they have finished the C25k.
I absolutely laughed out loud when I read your comment about the squirrel! My husband asked me what I wad laughing about and had a good chuckle when I told him.
AlmightyD... run your race. I haven't run since last Tuesday because of my ankle. I am running a cross country 5K on Saturday. My goal is just to finish. Don't worry about your time. Just do what you can and celebrate your completion. I finished towards the front with 34 minutes. If you finish in 45 you will have plenty of company. There were people who finished in 57 minutes. Just run your race! You can do it! Just remember how far you've come. I can't wait to hear how it goes!
Holy s---balls I did it! Finished w9d3 this morning, and with some extra credit to boot. I'll have to get my Nike+ uploaded to see how much extra credit I got, but it should be a run of about 3.25 miles or so. Here's a shot of my usual route in the mornings (don't worry this is straight from Google Earth so I'm not disclosing any secret Gov't info and the start of the red line isn't really where our compound is so no targeting help for the Taliban):
Up until this morning I would follow the red line and go a little further each week whenever my run time went up. That red line is about the furthest I had ever had to go to get my 28 minute runs last week. This morning, I decided that I was going to do "the loop". Sgt. Snesavage can't even do "the loop" sometimes and ends up walking part of it...of course he runs a lot faster than I do but I'm fatter than him so for my own satisfaction I'm going to call that a wash. Instead of turning right this morning and following my usual route along the red line, I kept going straight along the green line. I was probably right about where the red line ends when my Podcast beeped at me to let me know my 30 minutes was done. At that point I was determined to finish so I kept at it and made it back to our LSA. I think by that point I was running purely on stubborness.
sy5temfire, seeing as how I am from Cincinnati when I'm not in Afghanistan I probably shouldn't be aiding someone from Pittsburgh, but you're new here so I'll let it go this time . This is a website I found once upon a time with treadmill conversions: http://www.hillrunner.com/training/tmillchart.php
Well done. It's a great feeling of accomplishment, is it not?
My second 5K is coming up on Sat. I am nervous! I have been having a lot of aches and pains. Tonight I couldn't run after my first mile. My left knee was killing me... The race is cross country so I am extra worried about rough terrain. Wish me luck!
Oops forgot to attach my run. Very sad.... My first 1K was a record breaker though!
Good luck of your 5k tomorrow Nicolette!!
Congratulations on finishing, Jeb! And 3.25 miles! wow!! Any plans for whats next?
As for me, I'm still on break from running. My last run (W8D1) was one week ago today, but it feels like so much longer. I never thought I would be saying this... but I really miss running!! I've been looking up info about Plantar Fasciitis and I'm pretty certain that is what it is, so I have been icing my foot and I found a taping method that really seems to help. I'm not going to start running again until I see the Podiatrist, though, because I don't want to risk hurting anything even more.
Congrats Jeb on finishing and going the extra mile ....hahahahaha
Nicoloette - Good luck on your race! and way to go on breaking those records!!!
I have a renewed energy on my running and weight loss. My Mother had back surgery on tues fallowed by a stroke last night. It is going to be a very long recovery for her and I am NEVER having that surgery. Thats where I was headed and strolling towards a heart attack and stroke as well and I will be running in the other direction. Down 47lbs as of yesterday ( since starting with Dr in aug) ! Going this morning to pickup prerace packet for sunday plan to write my age, weight and time on that bib after I am done and maybe even a small raceday snapshot of Leighton and I.
Apparently the SGT found another loop that is right at 2 miles. I was thinking about sticking with the same schedule as before but maybe try doing 2 miles with a faster pace on days 1 and 2 and then doing a long run around "the loop" on day 3 with my usual walk on the in between days. I'm definitely going to keep doing something...I feel great and I didn't do all this just for the sake of finishing it.
We went over to shoot some archery at the prison today so I was able to upload my Nike+ stuff. My distance was pretty close to what I thought it was but the thing I was also really happy about was that my pace was the same as all my previous runs and it was pretty consistent over the entire run. In fact, my last mile was actually my fastest by 3 seconds/mile. Now that I know I can run the distance, I'm hoping I can improve my pace with shorter faster runs.
Thanks for the well wishes guys. Unfortunately I am not going to be able to run tomorrow. My knee is messed up. My husband who has knee surgery doesn't think I should risk further injury. He wants me to take 2 weeks off to heal. I am going to listen because I want to be a lifetime runner!
Congrats on your weightloss! That is awesome. What did you say you were doing?

Java Tuning in a Nutshell - Part 1
By Rupesh Ramachandran on Mar 12, 2012
While delivering a training recently, I got a request to put together a JVM tuning cheat sheet. Given the 50+ parameters available for the Sun hotspot, this request is understandable. The diagram below is what I came up with. I've tried to narrow down the most important flags that will solve 80% of JVM performance needs with 20% of the tuning effort. This article assumes basic JVM tuning knowledge - the different generations used in the Sun hotspot JVM, different garbage collection algorithms available, etc. Although this is... read more

Unhealthy? Chances Are Your Spouse Is Too
What can the health of your spouse tell you about yourself? New research suggests it can reveal quite a lot.
In a working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research, James Banks, Elaine Kelly and James P. Smith compared spouses age 50 and over in England and the United States before and after partnership (marriage or cohabitation). They used data from the English Longitudinal Survey of Aging and the American Health and Retirement Survey, collected five to seven years ago. Both surveys include not only adult health behaviors and outcomes, but also childhood health information and a number of other non-health variables.
The researchers found that people with similar health habits — exercising, smoking and drinking — tended to partner with each other. In both countries, smokers were more likely to be with smokers and nonsmokers with nonsmokers. They also found that partners tended to have similar childhood health characteristics. For example, people with childhood diseases gravitated toward each other. These associations held true in both countries, but even more so in England.
Spouses also had similar education levels, family backgrounds and tended to come from the same socioeconomic status. But the gap in education and socioeconomic background got wider with subsequent marriages.
Partners in England had more similar backgrounds than those in the U.S. "I would speculate that it has something to do with the size of the country and geographic mobility," said Mr. Smith. "England is a smaller country. In the United States, you have a wider set of people you can partner with."
Spouses in England also had a greater impact on each other's health behavior, as measured by researchers. If one partner stopped smoking, the odds were 50% greater in England compared to the U.S. that the other partner also did the same.
Despite stronger positive correlations in family background, childhood health, socioeconomic status and health behaviors in England, health outcomes, such as the chances of having diabetes or high blood pressure, were more closely associated between partners in the U.S. The researchers write that the "greater similarity in health behaviors in England is interesting in that health outcomes across partners/spouses appear somewhat more positively correlated in the United States."
The researchers also found different gender dynamics in each country. Male and female partners had parallel effects on each other's smoking behavior in England, while women in the U.S. were more likely to change their pre-partnership behavior — whether smoking or not — to copy the habit of their male spouse, as compared to the other way around. The paper doesn't explore the reason for the variance, but in another study released by the National Bureau of Economic Research earlier this year, Kerry Anne McGeary examined the Health and Retirement Study, which provides data on Americans over the age of 50, and found that women were more likely to cease smoking if a partner suffered a health shock rather than vice versa.

MARIETTA - A downtown building constructed in 1900 and once home to everything from a bank to a shoe shine company is now being called a safety concern by a Marietta city councilman.
Roger Kalter, D-1st Ward, said he has noticed a number of buildings around the area with serious issues that need to be addressed, including the St. Clair building.
"It certainly is the most visible problem because of its location in downtown Marietta," he said.

Councilman Roger Kalter, D-1st Ward, points out the windows he believes might be a safety issue on the St. Clair building located at 216 Putnam St., Marietta.
The building is located at 216 Putnam St., across from the Washington County Courthouse.
The building was named for Arthur St. Clair, the first governor of the Northwest Territory.
The owner of the building is the First Bank of Ohio, according to the Washington County Auditor's Office. Bank President Patrick Tonti is also the owner of Tonti Properties, based in Dallas, Texas. Tonti Properties has several large retail buildings and a number of residential buildings scattered across the United States.
The St. Clair building has been empty for about a decade but was once home to a wide variety of local businesses.
Law offices, loan companies and a shoe shine shop are just a few of the businesses that were located in the building when it was still occupied, said Marietta Mayor Joe Matthews.
It was also the first location in Marietta of Peoples Bank.
"The last time it was really used was by a group of attorneys around 2002," said Kalter. "It supposedly had a new roof put on it then, but that roof has already partially collapsed."
Neither Tonti or a spokesperson for the Bank of Ohio returned a call for comment. It's unclear if the space is available to be rented.
In addition to Kalter, some neighbors have also expressed concern about the condition of the building.
Several years ago glass from the St. Clair building's windows fell onto the roof of the Washington-Morgan Community Action building, said David Brightbill, executive director of Community Action.
"It's been about four years, but there were shards of glass falling onto our roof," he said. "They did replace the windows after we contacted them, it just took a couple of months before they were fixed."
Broken windows aren't the only problem that Kalter has seen or heard about.
"Graffiti has been on the front and side of the building for at least 10 years," he said. "I've also been told there is a mold issue in the building, despite not being able to see inside to confirm that. You can also see part of the roof in the basement has collapsed."
Marianne Monaghan, the co-owner of Barking Dog Books and Art LLC, said she has been a close neighbor to the St. Clair building for more than a year now.
"I've seen the windows on the upper floor and they look like they could fall out at any time," said Monaghan. "The bottom level has weeds, garbage and mold growing. It has really deteriorated since the last flood."
Monaghan said she wishes that either the city or the landlord would take some sort of action, because the building is only getting worse.
"Someone should be able to address the owner and ask if he plans to sell or maintain the building," she said. "Old buildings don't get better with age like a fine wine, and it really is a drag on downtown Marietta."
Local organization ReStore Marietta has had the St. Clair building on its radar for some time now, according to Executive Director Mallory Greenham.
"We keep tabs on all area buildings that have been vacant for an extended period of time," she said. "We worry about absentee landlords that refuse to market or maintain their property."
ReStore Marietta is a volunteer driven, nonprofit organization with a mission to promote, protect and revitalize the historic downtown, according to Greenham. Greenham said the St. Clair building could be a huge safety concern if it continues to be improperly maintained.
"It's a very large building right in the middle of downtown Putnam Street," she said. "If a fire were to break out or the building collapse the damage would be catastrophic to the area and could put firefighters' lives at risk."
Kalter said he filed a complaint Feb. 20 because he too believes the building currently poses a potential health risks to citizens.
"I decided to file a complaint with both the Building Code Enforcement Board and the City Health Department," said Kalter. "It looks like two of the big window panes could fall out anytime because the wood that holds them up appears to be rotting."
Councilman Mike McCauley, D-2nd Ward, said he looked at the windows that Kalter told him about but wasn't sure just how dangerous they are.
"It's hard for me to tell how dangerous they are looking up from the outside," said McCauley, who represents the downtown district. "The building enforcement board will be able to go inside and check things out and then contact the owner if there is a problem."
Kalter's complaint hasn't been reviewed by the Building Code Enforcement Board because its next meeting isn't until Monday.
Matthews said when a complaint is filed it is dealt with in a series of steps.
"If a complaint is registered, the board first discusses it to decide if it's a valid issue," he said. "If we do find an issue then we inform the owner that we will need to do a walk-through of the building."
If any issues are found then the owner is given a set amount of time to correct them or faces penalties, according to Matthews.
Penalties for refusing to correct issues could range from the owner being fined to the building being demolished.
"The only way a building would be demolished would be if it was a safety hazard to the health and safety of the people," said Matthews. "I don't believe that this building needs to be demolished, but when we receive the complaint we will look into the matter."
Another downtown site
The St. Clair building isn't the only downtown structure that has caused some concern.
Neighbors of 215 Second St. say there are safety issues there as well.
The first and second floors of the four-story building are occupied, said Ryan Smith, owner of Marietta Adventure Company and neighbor to the building.
The first floor of the building houses businesses Kelley Ink Tattoo's & Piercing and Roger's Imaging, while the second floor serves as a residential area.
"The only issue that there has been with the building is with glass breaking out of the upper story windows," said Smith. "When the wind blows hard glass can fall out on to the front sidewalk or the alley beside the building."
Smith said this has only been an issue the past few years and he has contacted the landlord to inform him of the situation.
"I try to be a good neighbor. If I notice an issue I'll give him a call and tell him about it," he said.
With glass falling, the safety of those visiting the downtown area is compromised, he said.
"For his and those visiting downtown's sake I hope it gets fixed soon," said Smith. "Glass falling from four stories high onto someone would be a pretty serious thing."
John Hendricks said he has been a partial owner of the building since the early 70s and became the sole owner of the property sometime in the 90s.
He is aware of the potential risk and is planning not only to address the issue, but to fix it as soon as possible, he said.
"It is a safety concern and we want to repair it as soon as we can," said Hendricks. "We are planning on having it done by spring or summer. We are just waiting on a little better weather."
Kalter said he would like to see Marietta adopt a new property management code to help reduce building issues like these.
"The city adopted the current code in July of 1999, so it seems we are a bit outdated in terms of an update," he said. "We need the code to be updated and a system to properly enforce it to be instituted as soon as possible."

Boca Grande prices up
Published: Thursday, January 24, 2013 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 23, 2013 at 8:47 p.m.
BOCA GRANDE - Florida's "old money" vacation resort recorded 103 real estate sales in 2012, one more than in 2011.
But Boca Grande's total sales volume hit $137.3 million, a 9 percent increase from last year, according to data provided by Gasparilla Properties.
"Prices are leveling and going up in some cases," said Bob Melvin, a top-producing Boca Grande agent.
The average price of real estate on Gasparilla Island actually rose 7 percent to $1.33 million from $1.24 million a year ago.
"We're No. 3 in the country -- behind just Aspen (Colo.) and Palm Beach -- in terms of our real estate retaining its value," Melvin said. "We don't have wild ups and downs because there's very little speculation on the island."
Inventories of unsold properties are coming down, but 150 properties are still for sale on the island, Melvin said. That includes a range of properties, from one-bedroom condominiums on the water that go for as little as $200,000 to a $12 million estate on the beach.
Melvin expects 2013 to be another strong year. He says that there is a lot of pent-up demand, and some of Boca Grande's services are getting better.
"You've got the expansion of the Coral Creek airport and the Boca Grande jet center -- the private airport off Boca Grande," he said. "Any private jet can get in now."
The main obstacle to using the airport is that it is members' only.

Preparing the perfect cup of tea is a process to be savored. Watch how the traditional elements harmoniously come together to make the perfect cup and enjoy the liberation of pure tea goodness.
This is what we call the Mighty Leaf signature multi-sensory ("sensory melange") tea experience. Come share with us and learn how to get infused.
The quality of tea is affected by the quality of water used to prepare it. Using filtered or bottled water is best. If possible, avoid brewing tea with tap, distilled or mineral water. Never over-boil water, as it results in flat-tasting tea.
1) Heat filtered or bottled water to a rolling boil or to 205 F. 2) While the water is heating pour hot water into your teapot and cups, let sit and then drain completely. A warm teapot will maintain the requisite temperature for superior tasting tea.
Whole Leaf Tea
Slowly open up our specially created, sensually handcrafted tea pouch and enjoy the aroma of fresh herbs and fruit. Use one Mighty Leaf tea pouch per cup.
Infusion Time
Pour water over tea pouch. Time steeping carefully and infuse for 5 - 7 minutes. Watch how the herbs and fruit within the pouch have room to gracefully expand in your cup, creating a rich and flavorful infusion and a superior tasting tea.
Savor the Leaf
Sip your cup and rediscover the pleasure of the way tea was naturally meant to be. This is the magic of Mighty Leaf.
Mint promotes healthy digestion and aids in soothing indigestion. Get a dose of aromatherapy too, as the scent promotes calm and quiet.
Serve Organic Mint Melange as a refreshing and stimulating morning beverage. After a large meal, try sipping to ease the effects of a full stomach. Pairs well with fruity desserts.

PULLMAN, Wash. -- Cal, heading into into the earliest-scheduled Big Game in history, gained some momentum Saturday night with a 31-17 victory over Washington State.
It was the second straight win for the Bears (3-4, 2-2 Pac-12) and their eighth in a row over Washington State (2-5, 0-4).
Two weeks ago, the Bears were 1-4 and reeling. Now they have growing confidence going into the 115th Big Game against Stanford on Saturday at Berkeley.
"It's nice to come on the road and get a win," Cal coach Jeff Tedford said. "It's nice to play the Big Game next week with a two-game win streak."
"We pushed through adversity," said cornerback Steve Williams, who had an interception and four pass breakups. "We knew we would eventually . . . it came and now we're just trying to keep the thing rolling. If we do that, this is the (North) division and we can win it."
The Bears turned the ball over twice in the first quarter, then overpowered WSU with a running game that produced a season-high 318 yards.
Four different Cal ball carriers topped 50 yards, led by senior C.J. Anderson, who shook off a hit to his left knee and cramps to finish with 112 yards on 15 carries with a pair of touchdowns.
"The line played very well," Anderson said. "As running backs, we were more disciplined and more detailed, setting up blocks for the line so we could spring the runs we had."
Quarterback Zach Maynard, sacked 29 times in Cal's first six games, suffered no sacks and contributed a career-high 78 rushing yards and a touchdown. He also passed for 189 yards and a score.
"Him running the ball is definitely going to help us out, especially when it's third down and he can pick up a first down and not have to throw the ball," wide receiver Keenan Allen said. "That just creates momentum for our offense."
WSU, under first-year coach Mike Leach, countered with an aerial attack that included 63 pass attempts, stopping the clock enough times for the game to exceed 31/2 hours.
"It makes the game long," Williams said, "and you get really tired because there's a lot of pass plays you've got to cover down field. Sprint after sprint after sprint."
The Bears scored one touchdown in each of the first three quarters to take a 21-3 lead. Maynard's 2-yard keeper capped a 71-yard drive to open the third quarter, but WSU responded with a 10-play, 75-yard scoring drive that was fueled by two pass interference penalties. Jeff Tuel passed 8 yards to freshman Brett Bartolone for the touchdown that made it 21-10 with 6:42 left in the third quarter.
Cal pushed its lead to 24-10 when Vincenzo D'Amato converted a career-long 52-yard field goal with 2:02 left in the third quarter. It was the sixth straight field goal conversion for the junior kicker.
The Bears went ahead 31 10 when Anderson, back in action, dashed 29 yards untouched with 10:27 left in the game.
The Cougars had one last gasp, driving 75 yards in nine plays to score on Tuel's 6-yard TD pass to Bartolone with 7:09 left, their second scoring connection.
Cal scored first in a game for the first time this season when Allen turned a 5-yard slant pass from Maynard into a 69-yard touchdown play with 5:55 left in the first quarter.
WSU sophomore quarterback Connor Halliday was picked off twice in the first quarter, giving him five interceptions over two games and earning him a spot on the bench. Tuel took over with 5:55 left in the quarter and finished 39 for 53 for 320 yards.
Maynard also was intercepted twice, both on balls that were tipped, the second coming after the Bears had driven to the WSU 10.That set up a 16-play, 86-yard drive by the Cougars that ended with a 20-yard field goal by Andrew Furney.
"It was nice to bounce back from that," said Tedford, who was pleased with Maynard's decision-making, including his willingness to create yards with scrambles.
"That's his job," Tedford said. "His job is when things aren't there or he doesn't see them clearly, to protect the ball and pull it down and do what he can do."
• Allen had 11 catches for 166 yards, moving past Dameane Douglas to No. 2 on Cal's career list with 196 receptions. "This is how I felt last year -- just flowing, clicking," Allen said.
• Cal safety Avery Sebastian knocked two WSU offensive players out of the game in the first half. He delivered a hard blow to running back Teondray Caldwell at the sideline late in the first quarter. Early in the second quarter, Sebastian was flagged for a helmet-to-helmet hit on WSU star receiver Marquess Wilson. Neither WSU player returned.
• Freshman Cole Leininger had a career-long 61-yard punt for the Bears in the first quarter.
• Sophomore cornerback Kameron Jackson made his first career start for the Bears in place of senior Marc Anthony (knee). Jackson is the reigning Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Week after intercepting three passes in last week's 43-17 win over UCLA.

EL CERRITO -- An innovative project installed by the city to cleanse storm water naturally before it reaches San Francisco Bay is serving as an inspiration for a similar, but larger project planned for El Cerrito and six other East Bay cities.
Contractors will rip up pavement at a string of sites along San Pablo Avenue through El Cerrito, San Pablo, Richmond, Albany, Berkeley, Emeryville and Oakland, and install 3-foot-deep landscaping beds, as much as 100 feet in length and six to seven feet wide, between the sidewalk and the street.
The beds contain special soil mixes and drought-resistant plants to absorb toxins from water that flows off rooftops, sidewalks and streets.
The water percolates through special purifying soil mixes and gravel and into perforated pipes at the base of the beds and from there is released into storm drains that lead to the Bay, said Josh Brandt, project manager for the sponsoring agency, the Oakland-based San Francisco Estuary Project.
"We have to pull up the pavement and dig below the gutter lines, allowing storm water to get in and soak in," Brandt said.
The water treated through the beds will reduce but not eliminate the flow of untreated water that cascades into the storm drains from the East Bay hills, according to Yvettah Ortiz, El Cerrito's interim public works director.
In 2010, El Cerrito created what has become the pilot project for the latest initiative by installing the water cleansing beds, which it refers to as "rain gardens," near the intersections of San Pablo Avenue and Madison Avenue and San Pablo and Eureka Street.
"(The Estuary Project) saw the success of what El Cerrito has done and reached out to other agencies interested in similar types of (systems)," Ortiz said.
The new El Cerrito beds will be placed at the intersections of San Pablo and Moeser Lane and San Pablo and Stockton Avenue.
Construction is expected to begin in early fall, starting in Oakland and Emeryville and then moving north, Ortiz said.
The project is expected to cost about $4 million, with about half of that coming in Caltrans mitigation funding from the Bay Bridge eastern span construction project, Brandt said.
"Caltrans couldn't treat the storm water on the bridge on-site, so it had to find an alternative off-site," Brandt said. "It's a nice solution."
The project is also receiving grants from the federal Environmental Protection Agency and the state Department of Water Resources.
"After a two-year funded period to allow the plants to become established, all the sites go back to the cities for long-term maintenance and care," Brandt said.
El Cerrito is taking other steps to reduce pollution from rain water runoff including intercepting garbage before it flows into the storm drains, Ortiz said.
"One thing we are doing to meet Regional Water Quality Control Board requirements is to install traps inside the storm drain inlets to capture trash before it goes into the drains," she said.
The city is also about to begin another rain garden project along the Ohlone Greenway south of Fairmount Avenue. Water that flows into a storm drain on Fairmount Avenue will be directed into a rain garden set in the natural landscape.
"It will be a natural setting, rather than a concrete box," Ortiz said.

3.15-5 Tortious
Interference - Interference Must be
Revised to January 1, 2008
The plaintiff must show that the
defendant interfered with <insert contract or business expectancy> and
that the interference was tortious. Interference is tortious if it is
wrongful. Not every act that disturbs a (contract / business expectancy) is
wrongful. For example, competing for the same business is not by itself
wrongful. To prove that the interference was tortious, the plaintiff must show
that when the defendant interfered, (he/she/it) <include only those that are
engaged in (fraud /
misrepresentation / intimidation / molestation
acted maliciously.
To act maliciously means to act intentionally without justification.
The plaintiff has the burden of
proving that the defendant did not have justification for the interference.

(1922). See 4 Restatement (Second) Torts § 766 and comment s; §§ 767-768
If the plaintiff claims that fraud
or misrepresentation is the tortious activity, the court should instruct on the
elements of fraud or misrepresentation. See

How To Install Caliper Covers
If you've fitted a set of aftermarket wheels on your car or truck, you've probably noticed how they show off everything behind them in a way your OEM ones simply couldn't. Your factory brake calipers are now suddenly visible to the world, and odds are they do not live up to the high standards of crisp visual appeal your new wheels and tires have set. Or you may have a nice set of factory wheels which expose the brake hardware, and it's a look that you feel could stand some improvement.

PARKERSBURG - Wood County Sheriff Ken Merritt says he will speak with county officials later this week about whether deputies will have to take over animal control in Wood County.
The Parkersburg Humane Society Monday announced in a letter to the Wood County Commission it planned to lay off three humane officers, effectively removing the agency from county animal control.
Merritt said Tuesday though he had heard about the letter, he had not spoken with county officials about the matter.
"It hasn't yet funneled down to me," he said. "We will have to deal with it. We will be meeting, if not today, then before the week is out."
Merritt said under code he believes the sheriff's department will be held responsible for animal control in the county.
"The way the code is set up, the county commission is responsible, so that probably puts it under our authority," he said. "As far as what will happen or what we will do, we haven't discussed that yet. I don't have the people that I can just replace those three humane officers."
Merritt declined to say whether he would request additional funding from the county, saying those are among the details which must be discussed.
"It's going to be something that we look at and see what we can do, see what is going to be best for the county and the residents," he said.
Parkersburg Mayor Bob Newell said the announcement will not affect Parkersburg, at least not immediately.
"Other than a vicious dog that is menacing someone, we've been taking care of our animal control needs already," Newell said, pointing to city programs to control deer, coyotes and geese. "It really depends on what the county commission decides. We will call whoever the county designates to call."
Newell said city police already are responsible for corralling dangerous or stray dogs or other animals during times when the humane society would not be open, such as in the evenings or on weekends. In those instances, which Newell said are relatively rare, police would take the animal to an outside temporary holding pen at the society.
"It is just a handful of times a month, at best," he said. "That is not going to make much of a difference for us."
Newell said ultimately he believes the shake up will be a positive for the county.
"The county commission is at some point going to have to acknowledge that they are required by state law to provide animal control countywide," he said. "I agree with the humane society, that's never been their mission. That's how the county chose to use them."

The 23LSV is both attractive and versatile.
The 23LSV stands out amongst the Malibu fleet with her generous size and roomy interior.
The LSV stands for Luxury Sport-V.
The LSV is loaded with standard features that you might only expect to see on much larger boats.
There's good storage under the transom hatch.
At the transom the sunpad is actually a three part set up with the engine in the middle and on either side deep storage compartments.
The 23LSV has a comfortable and roomy interior.
As you can see the 23 LSV has a lot of space for your crew. She has a luxurious interior with hand covered and stitched finish seats.

Normally you'd never associate the term "towboat" with "luxury." "Pedestrian?" Sure. "Functional?" Perhaps. But "luxury"? That might seem like a stretch, but its exactly what you'll find in Malibu Sunscape 23 LSV. The initials stand for "Luxury Sport-V," with the "V" referring to the space-saving V-drive transmission in the stern.
Hitched to a powerful 365-hp Indmar Hammerhead, the smooth-running Walter V-drive in our test boat let Malibu's designers deliver a tournament-grade pull while freeing up a tremendous amount of seating and floor space in the cockpit. We especially liked the gull-wing hatches on either side of the powerplant that provide access to separate stowage compartments so you never have to worry about finding your gear wrapped around an alternator belt. And the center hatch provides easy access to Hammerhead and all its fluid fills while completing a triple-panel sunpad aft.
The uncluttered, U-Shaped seating area in the cockpit (combined with plush seating in the bow) means you can take a crowd of up to 12 people along for the ride, be it cruising, skiing, or wakeboarding. There's so much room, in fact, that the boat comes with a removable dining table, a feature more likely found on a deck boat than a tow boat.
Fully forward, the helm is one of the most tricked out we've seen, with more features than a movie theater. The star of the show for sure is the MSCAN electronic control system, which includes a GPS for speed monitoring, and a built-in cruise-control system so you can dial-in the Sunscape for extended tows, or return to exactly the same speed when the next athlete gets his or her turn at the other end of the towrope.
The luxury continues fully forward with deeply padded seats in the bow and built-in ice chests below, just forward of the walkthrough windshield.
When you also discover the Sunscape can be set up for wakeboarding with 500 pounds of water ballast and another 1,000 pounds of downward force aft courtesy of the "Wedge" hydrofoil, you'll see why the terms "roughing it" and "Sunscape LSV" have nothing at all in common.

Lynne Blake found the cause she wanted to champion with all her heart after she suffered a sudden cardiac arrest in 2007.
She was 27 years old, newly married, fit and otherwise healthy when the heart attack struck. A bystander who knew how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) helped save her life.
Since then, Blake has dedicated herself to raising awareness and education across Eagle County.
"I went back to work for a while afterward but it didn't feel right," the Eagle-Vail resident said. "I felt called to help others. I had never taken a CPR class and didn't even really know what a cardiac arrest was. If a young, well-educated woman like me didn't know much about it, how many others didn't?"
Blake took a CPR class with the goal of becoming a certified instructor and the Starting Hearts program was born two years ago. She now visits schools and other groups, teaching them the basics of CPR and AEDs (automated external defibrillators). These free awareness courses now feature the HeartRod - a bus turned into a mobile training unit and painted to look like a hot rod car.
While participants in the awareness program get to learn and practice CPR on mannequins, and learn what cardiac arrest looks like, what an AED is and how to use it, they are not certified by the course.
Blake has offered free certification in the past but businesses that require CPR certification for employees took advantage of the opportunity and Blake said she felt like she was missing her target audience. Since she works full time for zero pay, functioning on donations, grants and support from her husband, she is looking to turn her certification course into a revenue source for Starting Hearts.
Likewise, the Western Eagle County Ambulance District offers free CPR/first aid certification classes to Eagle and Gypsum residents each month but charges businesses a variable rate. (See the "WECAD classes" info box for more details.)
In her mission to make AEDs, training and awareness more widely available throughout the county, Blake is partnering with entities such as WECAD.
"(Blake) is definitely not competing with us, she is helping us get the word out," said Hannah Lovato, WECAD's CPR/PAD program coordinator. "We have a good relationship with her."
Blake built those relationships by attending Eagle County Prevention Committee meetings.
"I got to know some of the people and started the Eagle County Sudden Cardiac Arrest Task Force," she said.
The task force has been meeting once a month since August. Dr. Larry Gaul of Vail Valley Medical Center is its medical director.
"I'm trying to build a network of instructors," Blake said.
As Starting Hearts marks its second year in June, Blake is looking to hit the streets in full force.
"With the nicer weather, we will be ramping up the program," she said.
Naturally, Blake's husband, Matt Blake, learned CPR after her close call.
"It was the last thing I expected," Matt said of his wife's heart attack. "It happened 11 days after we were married, two days after we got back from our honeymoon."
He initially thought she had a seizure.
"I got a call at work and the doctor said, 'she's alive,' and I was like, 'Well, yeah, of course,' but then the doctor told me she had a cardiac arrest," Matt said. "I didn't have much concept of what that was - it can happen to anyone. Lynn was healthy."
Matt said if the heart attack happened while they were on vacation he wouldn't have been able to help her.
"It changed the way we live," he said.
Matt's next step toward helping his wife's mission will be to get his commercial driver's license so he can drive the HeartRod.
"I can't believe AEDs and CPR education aren't more common and mandatory," he said. "We're aiming to change that, starting with Eagle County."
(See Lynn Blake's accompanying story below for a first-person account of her experience and how she came to be implanted with a pacemaker/defibrillator.)
Editor's note: The following story was written by Lynn Blake and appears on her website, http://rss.startinghearts.org/archives/lynn-blake.
I was a newlywed of 11 days, reporting to work for the third day in a new position with the Vail Valley Partnership. I was 27 years old, trying to maintain a professional career and a balanced, healthy lifestyle while having fun and living life to the fullest in the extraordinary Rocky Mountains of Colorado. I never thought my life would be changed by a sudden cardiac arrest. I was fit, thin, a healthy eater, non-smoker and routine exerciser; there were no symptoms whatsoever.
Valentine's Day 2007 started just like any other day. I was very excited about the idea of celebrating the lovers' holiday with my new husband, so I got up a little early to stop by the grocery store to pick up a card, some heart candy for the office, and a couple of ingredients to make a romantic dinner for my new husband. Around noon, a group of co-workers and I were wrapping-up a training event when - in mid-sentence and without warning - I collapsed in my chair.
My co-workers thought I might be having a seizure, but then quickly realized the situation was even more serious. A shout for CPR was made through the office and a woman eagerly responded that she wanted to take the course.
Seconds later, the woman realized they weren't offering a course but that the skills she was previously taught were now being requested. This woman, Sue Froeschle, and a group of others immediately followed the links suggested in the Chain of Survival.
Fortunately the fire department was across the street and they quickly responded by running over to assist with CPR and administer defibrillation. Shortly thereafter, the paramedics arrived and began performing advanced techniques in order to stabilize me enough for transportation to the Vail Valley Medical Center.
Once at VVMC, it was communicated that I suffered a sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) and was going to require a more advanced emergency and trauma center with access to high level cardiac care. Flight for Life was scheduled to fly me to Denver but was grounded due to severe snow storms. The ambulance transportation guidelines had recently changed, allowing my ambulance responders to drive the 100 miles and safely deliver me to Presbyterian St. Luke's Hospital (PSL) in Denver. Several hours later, Interstate 70 - the only way to Denver from Vail - was closed due to the hazardous weather and all mountain travel was suspended.
At PSL, my family was told that my destiny was bleak. Despite the grim situation, the doctors and nurses worked through numerous roadblocks, including blood clots and threats of leg amputation, to bring me back to a point of recovery. Needless to say, I miraculously survived and am living a normal life with the help of an implanted pacemaker/defibrillator in the event that something should happen again.
The doctors remain stumped with my incident. Most attribute the situation to an episode of tachycardia as a baby and some suggest it could have been the stress of getting married, a new job or the blood clot that appeared in my leg the day of the incident. We may never know.
I owe my improbable survival and successful recovery to the immediate and effective CPR response and early defibrillation. A day does not pass without my reflecting on the blessings and fortunes I received that allowed me to survive this tragic incident. I'm one of the lucky ones and have been given another chance at life. I know that everyone has the opportunity to make a difference and feel compelled to pursue this calling. I cannot ignore what happened to me and feel that I must give back by raising awareness for SCA and the importance of CPR training and AED (automated external defibrillator) prevalence. Because of these experiences, I'm in the process of establishing Starting Hearts, an organization dedicated to saving lives through CPR and AED education and awareness.

PARKERSBURG - Local veterans reacted Friday to the news of the death of retired U.S. Army Gen. H. Norman Schwarzkopf Jr.
"I thought he was a good guy, " said Bill Terrell, commander of the VFW Post 8127 in Vienna and who served in the U.S. Army from 1965 to 1967. "I think he did the right thing. He was kind of young at 78, to die."
Terrell said people tend to think a leader like Schwarzkopf will live forever.

"I didn't have the opportunity to serve under him, but I wish I had," Terrell said. "We need more men like him; he should have run for office."
Schwarzkopf, 78, died Thursday in Tampa, Fla., of complications from pneumonia.
Schwarzkopf, a graduate of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, commanded the U.S.-led international coalition that drove Saddam Hussein's forces out of Kuwait in 1991.
A much-decorated combat soldier in Vietnam, Schwarzkopf was known popularly as "Stormin' Norman" for a notoriously explosive temper.
"He was a good man who was good for the service and good for the country," said Norman Farnsworth of Parkersburg, who served in the U.S. Air Force from 1957 to 1961.
Another area veteran agreed Schwarzkopf should have pursued a civilian post in the government.
"He was a gentleman to start with. I hate to see anybody not get praised for what they have done, because they should," said Bob Weekly of Parkersburg, who served in the U.S. Army from 1960 to 1965. "I think he should have run for office. He would have made a good secretary of state."
"I remember reading about General Schwarzkopf's death," said Joseph Smith of Parkersburg, who served in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1965 to 1967. "He was an outstanding general and he did a very good job handling the situation he was handed."
Smith added he would have liked to see Schwarzkopf run for office.
"It would have been nice to see him run for president," Smith said. "I think it would have been an opportunity to help make America better."
Schwarzkopf lived in retirement in Tampa, where he had served in his last military assignment as commander-in-chief of U.S. Central Command. That is the headquarters responsible for U.S. military and security concerns in nearly 20 countries from the eastern Mediterranean and Africa to Pakistan.

For all you natural beauty lovers..Shay Laren is the girl for you! Her girlish figure and natural boobies is enough to drive anyone mad! (girls included) She has this special way of posing for the camera, she knows exactly what her strong features are and love to show them off. She looks super sexy in this outfit! She is so lovable and so hot at the same time. Gotta love that combo!
There can never be too much Shay Laren and that is just one of the reasons why we always love showing her here on Aziani. This voluptuous vixen always manages to turn up the sexy just one notch hotter than the last time. She does just that in this stunning set of pics. She strips off her sexy red dress to show us her curves, which includes those hot natural boobs!
Shay Laren always looks so sweetly sexy. Not even her big straw hat can hide the genuinely sweet personality that shines through with her pretty eyes in these pics. She is such a sultry sexpot with those eyes and that incredible natural body. She pops her luscious breasts out of her bikini top and removes the bottoms entirely to reveal her just-as-sweet pussy to us.
Shay Laren is wearing a chocolate-colored dress and she is looking absolutely delicious while doing it.This tasty beauty lifts the skirt to show us her pretty white panties and tease us with what's underneath. She lifts the dress off over her head and flaunts her big natural boobies in her black bra. She teases us some more before finally getting topless and showing off her succulent melons. Her panties are the next to go and you see that the tease was well worth the wait. Yum!
Shay Laren is the sort of beauty that always looks good, no matter what. She has a natural charm and charisma that truly shines through in her modeling as well as one of the most desired pair of natural breasts in the business. Shay brings all of that and so much more to this photoset. She is absolutely gorgeous as she gets naked. She strips off her top, bra and denim shorts, then poses in nothing but her boots and tan lines. A beautiful girl!
Shay Laren looks adorably sexy with her hair in curls and dressed in a fun bra and panty set. Her girly side really shines through, but it's the sexy woman in her that truly takes over. She strips the cute coverings off to expose her gorgeous natural body and tan lines. She gets up on the kitchen counter and stretches her naked body out over it.You are definitely going to want to check out the awesome ass shots of Shay in this gallery.
Looking at girls like Shay Laren in those ridiculously tight white pants is one of the reasons shooting for Aziani is such a joy. Staying calm, cool, and collected when Shay takes them off, however, makes for an awfully hard work day though. Luckily you don't have to - you can enjoy Shay Laren in all her glory!
It is pretty obvious why Shay has become one of the favorite models at Aziani. She is stunning...just gorgeous. She loves what she does and it shows! She is a natural in front of the camera. She knows what she wants and is not afraid to take it. Shay gets naked outdoors, she admits to not liking clothes very much especially on this hot summer California day...a true Exhibitionist! Too hot for words...just see for yourself!
Busty hottie Shay Laren is back and today she brought her fuzzy slippers. Not much else though but we think you don't mind. Oh there's that skimpy little black dress she wears when she goes out but that comes off soon too. After all, Shay does feel much more comfortable naked than tied down by those pesky clothes society makes people wear.

Law School Classmates Arrested in Insider Trading Case
Two law school classmates—one currently working as a lawyer in Colorado—were accused Thursday of trading insider information ahead of a $1.2 billion acquisition by computer maker IBM in 2009.
Federal prosecutors said Thomas Conradt and David Weishaus, who were both working as stock brokers at Euro Pacific Capital at the time, bought shares of analytics software maker SPSS Inc. before the deal was publicly announced in July 2009 and tipped several friends who also worked as stock brokers.
They were arrested by the Federal Bureau of Investigation on Thursday and charged with securities fraud: Mr. Conradt in Denver and Mr. Weishaus in Baltimore.
Messrs. Weishaus and Conradt—they were a year apart in law school– made about $131,000 on the deal, but their friends pushed the illicit profits to more than $1 million, the SEC said in a lawsuit filed Thursday.
A lawyer for Mr. Weishaus declined comment Thursday. A lawyer for Mr. Conradt didn't immediately return a phone call seeking comment.
Mr. Conradt, 34, learned of the proposed deal from his roommate, an Australian securities analyst who was close friends with a lawyer whose firm was advising SPSS on the deal, the SEC said.
The lawyer, who had only been working in the firm's mergers and acquisitions practice for four months, was concerned about the assignment and seeking moral support when he gave his friend information about the deal at brunch, prosecutors and the SEC alleged.
Messrs. Conradt and Weishaus allegedly told each other in instant messages that they expected to get rich on their trades. Mr. Weishaus, 32, said in one instant message, "we need spss to run up i need that lexus," according to prosecutors.
"Greed isn't good, and neither is trading on inside information," said FBI Assistant Director Mary Galligan.
The brokers, including Mr. Weishaus, were fired in November 2009 after the SEC launched an investigation into their trades.
A year later, the analyst and the lawyer who allegedly provided the tip learned about the SEC probe, the SEC said. Shortly after confessing he shared confidential information about the SPSS deal, the lawyer found the analyst packing up his belongings, the SEC said.
The analyst told the lawyer "that he was leaving the United States and returning to Australia because, in light of the commission's investigation, it was his 'best option,'" the SEC said.

Hello everyone,
I was surprised when pms could recognize the oppo (just as a ps3). Everything goes well except when I want to stream flac files from my computer.
When I open a folder including flac tracks, each single tracks are....doubled. It means Oppo will play each track 2x. This is not happening with ps3 and
if I try the same manipulation with window mediashit player, this is not happening.
I have no idea why.
If anyone has an idea because I am allergic to window media player streaming and sharing system and pms is definitely my favourite.

NEWARK, N.J. — After 30 years, NJ Transit is poised to eliminate unlimited free travel for nonunion employees when its board of directors meets Monday.
"(Our) travel policy must be consistent as to how our customers and taxpayers commute and travel – they pay for their expenses," said James Weinstein, NJ Transit's executive director, in a statement.
Under the proposal, effective Jan. 1, nonunion employees and nonunion retirees no longer will be allowed to use rail, light rail and bus services free of charge for nonbusiness purposes.
Free travel is an industry benefit that dates to the first years of the railroads.
The agency said the move is a response to Gov. Chris Christie's emphasis on accountability to the state's taxpayers. Last year, NJ Transit reformed sick leave and vacation policies for nonunion employees.
The move follows similar changes in nonunion employee benefits at the Port Authority.
A spokesman for the Metropolitan Transportation Authority said, in general, nonunion employees receive passes for travel to and from work and there is no proposal to change that policy at this time.

EDF Must Agree 'Strike Price' For U.K. Nuclear Deal
By Selina Williams and Geraldine Amiel
News that Electricité de France is in talks with state-owned China Guangdong Nuclear Power Holding Co. on forming a partnership to build new nuclear power stations in Britain is a welcome boost to U.K. government ambitions for new plants, but there is still one huge hurdle to be cleared first.
Before EDF can get a new partner on board or take a final investment decision on the multi-billion dollar project, it has to agree with the U.K. government the guaranteed price the French utility will be paid for the electricity generated by the new nuclear power plant.
This "strike price" will give EDF and any other investors in that project clarity on future returns–something that is vital for nuclear projects which are complex, lengthy and have huge upfront costs.
"The fact that EDF would have a strong partner to help co-invest in this very large project would be a positive news. However, even more important would be the announcement of a suitable economic framework for the U.K.'s new nuclear project," said Morgan Stanley's Emmanuel Turpin. "The outcome of the ongoing negotiations [between EDF and the U.K. government] is absolutely key for equity investors."
The head of EDF's U.K. subsidiary Vincent de Rivaz made it clear in comments last year to a parliamentary select committee that the company wouldn't invest if the final price wasn't satisfactory.
The government has been tightlipped over the tricky negotiations.
"It's a delicate situation for the U.K. government, which is facing two major concerns: If support is too generous and returns are too high it will be politically difficult. If support is too low and three quarters of the way through construction EDF realizes the project isn't going to be economic, the government could face a situation where they have to consider giving more help to support a new build program," said Liberum Capital utilities analyst Guillaume Redgwell.
And even with a strike price acceptable to all parties, there's still the enormous construction risk, which can inflate costs dramatically.
Take EDF's nuclear reactor project in Flamanville, France, where costs have doubled to 8 billion euros ($10.7 billion) and the plant is two years behind schedule; or Areva's project in Finland where costs have more than doubled to €8 billion and which is delayed by five years.
"Even with a good strike price, there's enormous construction risk, so EDF needs to find the best circumstances to make this decision," said one person familiar with the matter.

The Top 10 Health Benefits of Orgasms
These are the most commonly used types of rubbers, proven to prevent pregnancy (about 85 percent effective) and STDs from spreading—plus they stretch, which is good for those big guys. They are not, however, to be mixed with oils, says Bill Albert, chief program officer at the National Campaign to Prevent Teen and Unwanted Pregnancy. The oil can cause the condom to break or slip more easily. Use a water-or silicon-based lube instead.
If you or your guy is allergic to latex, no excuses for not using condoms. There are polyurethane sheaths that block sperm and most viruses, too. Searah Deysach, owner of the female-friendly sex shop Early to Bed, recommends Lifestyles Skyn if you're going the non-latex route. They're thin and come in two sizes, unlike most non-latex varieties.

Washington Program
Security Clearances
Some internships, such as those at the departments of Defense, Justice, and State, may require applicants to submit to a thorough background examination or security clearance. Security clearances can produce months of delay before an agency or organization can allow a student to intern. While our students almost always pass this type of examination, the ensuing delay can ultimately make an internship an impractical match for the program. Students cannot begin the Washington Program with only a promise that their clearance will be forthcoming.
In order to minimize the risk of depending upon a security clearance that is slow to materialize, we recommend that students take the following steps:
1. You must meet the Department of State deadline, which is months before the Washington Program application deadline. The deadline for application for fall internships at the Department of State is March 1, while the deadline for spring internships is July 1 of the previous year. It is also recommended that you submit your security clearance application well in advance of the Department of State deadline.
2. Never apply solely to internships requiring a security clearance. Pursue other attractive alternatives and keep them open as options until the security process is complete.
3. Give the organization requiring a clearance a deadline beyond which you are no longer able to take the internship. This should, of course, be a reasonable one. One week before the beginning of the semester (i.e. two weeks before the internship begins) is not an unreasonable deadline for a security clearance to be completed. If an organization cannot accept this, there is a very good chance that the clearance will not be completed in a timely manner.
4. Return immediately all materials related to a security clearance and send them by express mail with verification of receipt. Also, keep a log of all conversations with the organization related to your security clearance. This log should record with whom you spoke, the substance of the conversation, and the date.
5. NEVER cancel or reschedule an appointment for your security interview (not all clearances requires this interview). This will effectively rule out the possibility that the clearance process can be completed by the time you arrive in Washington.

Focus Stocks
Approaching Resistance: E*TRADE
Published on Wednesday, 09 January 2013 06:00 Written by TradersHuddle Wire
New York, January 9th (TradersHuddle.com) - Shares of E*TRADE Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:ETFC) are trading very close to calculated resistance at $9.47. The stock ended the trading session at just $9.26, which is near levels that make it difficult to buy or start a position.
E*TRADE Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:ETFC) provides online brokerage and related products and services primarily to individual retail investors. The company offers investor-focused banking, primarily sweep deposits and savings products.
E*TRADE's stock range is defined by its calculated support defined at $8.45 and by the resistance level at $9.47; the stock is clearly over-extended from support, making it harder for participants to establish fresh longs.
Traders don't have a clear entry point for E*TRADE. However, as the stock pulls back towards $8.45 it will definitely provide a reference point to establish a trade. On the other hand, if the stock breaks above its resistance level at $9.47 then traders will get an opportunity to enter the stock as it moves to a higher range.
