What Schlage will do: Upon return of the defective Product to Schlage, Schlage's sole obligation, at its option, is to either repair or replace the Product, or refund the original purchase price in exchange for the Product. Original User: This warranty only applies to the Original User of Products. This warranty is not transferable.

Some local laws do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion or limitation may not apply to you. The provisions of this warranty do not apply to Products: (i) used in commercial applications; (ii) used in common area applications; (iii) used for purposes for which they are not designed or intended; (iv) which have been subjected to alteration, abuse, misuse, negligence or accident; (v) which have been improperly stored, installed, maintained or operated; (vi) which have been used in violation of written instructions provided by Schlage; (vii) which have been subjected to improper temperature, humidity or other environmental conditions; or (viii) which, based on Schlage's examination, do not disclose to Schlage's satisfaction non-conformance to the warranty. Additionally, this warranty DOES NOT COVER scratches, abrasions, or deterioration due to the use of paints, solvents or other chemicals.

(Bright Brass), 609 (Antique Brass), 619 (Satin Nickel), 620 (Antique
Pewter), 621 (Distressed Nickel), 622 (Matte Black), 716 (Aged Bronze)
Care Guidelines: Lacquered or clear-coated finishes should be wiped with a soft, damp cloth. A mile soap may be lightly used if very dirty. Particular care should be taken to avoid paint smears, thinners and strong cleaning agents as they will quickly destroy the protective coatings and subject the finished to rapid oxidation and discoloration. Initial care for finishes requires only periodic cleaning with mild non-abrasive soap and light buffing with a soft cloth.
Finish: 613
(Oil Rubbed Bronze)
Care Guidelines: Wipe with a little vegetable oil on a soft cloth. Too much oil may leave a residue to come off on the hands. Household detergents and mild abrasive powder may be used to restore the high metal color without seriously affecting the original compound of the metal. Then rub with a paste wax.
Finishes: 625
(Bright Chrome), 626
(Satin Chrome)
Care Guidelines: Wipe with a soft damp cloth. A high grade chrome polish may be used according to directions to clean and restore the original shine or satin finish.

It's sometimes said that a Phish New Year's Show does a pretty good job of summing up the year as a whole, and New Year's 1996 would seem to fit this to a tee; highly enjoyable, albeit thoroughly planned in advance with minimal spontaneity and somewhat stagnant improvisation (the band has even admitted as much). In 1996, setlists had reached a level of predictability to the point where my boys and I were able to spend the second setbreak of the New Year's show calling Set III in its entirety"...in order (Bohemian Rhapsody notwithstanding). Like most 1996 shows, you can more or less judge your enjoyment of the show based off of how it looks on paper. This is hardly to imply that New Year's 1996 wasn't an extremely fun show to attend; the impassioned playing, incredible balloon drop and general holiday spirit more than made up for the lack of inventive jamming, or surprises in the setlist.
Though it suffers from "you had to be there" type moments, Set III was easily the highlight of the evening, with the 70,000+ balloon drop during a raging "Disease" making for quite a funhouse-like environment (not to mention the fact that some guy dumped an entire beer on my head). And unlike 1997, the majority of the balloons somehow managed to end up in the audience, not on the stage. The remainder of the set (pre-choir) almost felt like amphetamine fueled Phish, with extra speedy (not to mention lovingly sloppy) versions of "Suzy" and "Antelope" to follow. And yes, the band completely nailed "Bohemian Rhapsody", not surprising considering that this was the same band that nailed the Talking Heads' career masterpiece two months earlier. Unfortunately, the "Julius" set closer suffered from the fact that the gospel choir was extremely difficult to hear.
However, I would be doing this show a great injustice by not giving a considerable shootout to my longtime friend/Phish show buddy Kevin Finkel, who deserves a Phishy purple heart for buying a counterfeit ticket at the last minute, and (not yet being 21) spending the majority of the show in a parking garage. It was not a pleasant evening for young Kevin, compounded by the fact that because our group got split up pre-show, we didn't realize he wasn't in the Fleet Center until after the show was over (this was also before the age of cell phones). Kevin Jonathan Finkel, for your bravery in times of crisis on a cold Boston evening, Phish nation salutes you.

BERKELEY -- It's almost with a sense of pride that Cal basketball player Ricky Kreklow wears a shiner under his right eye.
For the junior guard, it's evidence he's back on the court again.
"I'm excited," Kreklow said this week. "I've had a pretty rough college road, but I'm excited to finally put a good foot forward."
That wasn't intended to be a pun, but Kreklow, a transfer from Missouri two years ago, missed all but nine games last season because of a broken bone in his right foot that was reluctant to heal.
Point guard Justin Cobbs describes Kreklow as almost an X-factor on the Bears' roster.
"People are going to finally see Ricky Kreklow for the type of player he is because he's not going to have to worry about that foot," Cobbs said. "He's Jorge (Gutierrez) with a little jumper. That's what we need."
So Kreklow had no complaints last Saturday when, three minutes into the team's first official practice, he was accidentally poked in the eye during a drill by freshman Jabari Bird.
"They told me it was less than a millimeter away from causing permanent eye damage, "Kreklow said.
Instead, he hasn't missed a practice, either because of his eye or his foot.
There still is soreness at times, but doctors tell Kreklow his foot is healing and he simply needs to read the signals his body sends.
"The bone itself probably won't be completely healed for a couple months. But it's to the point where it's just (a matter of) my symptoms," he said. "If I feel good, I can play.
"The one kind of determining factor is how does it feel 24 hours after the practice? It's always sore after practice. It always will be. As long as by the next day I'm feeling good, no harm done."
Kreklow said he's preoccupied a bit by his foot with each day.
"Basketball is hard to play when you're thinking a lot," he said. "That's what I'm looking forward to this year -- playing while I'm finally healthy."
Kreklow said he feels healthy for the first time since the end of his freshman season at Missouri in March 2011.
Along with three guards among Cal's five-man freshman class, coach Mike Montgomery should enjoy backcourt depth he hasn't had for a couple years.
Besides Cobbs, Kreklow and sophomore Tyrone Wallace -- who has grown an inch to 6-foot-5 -- the roster features rookies Jordan Mathews and Sam Singer, along with Bird, the former prep All-America star from Salesian High.
"All the guards on the team can play," Kreklow said. "There's not one person that's kind of the lame duck out there."
Kreklow appreciates Cobbs comparing him to Gutierrez, who was the Pac-12 Player of the Year for Cal in 2012 as much for his toughness and impact on his teammates as for his statistical production.
"Jorge was such a prime example of someone who just works their butt off," Kreklow said. "I hope I can bring that (defensive edge) to the table, too, because that kind of play's contagious.
"I've always prided myself on a work ethic on the floor. I'm going to look to contribute as a shooter as well as a passer. I'm not going to take a play off."

The Mali family includes the High Performance GPU Roadmap® which is designed specifically to bring the highest levels of performance to premium devices with a particular emphasis on maintaining energy efficiency. In addition, the High Area Efficiency GPU roadmap focuses on delivering high quality graphics within the smallest possible area, and the Ultra-Low Power roadmap offers high quality graphics within an extremely low power budget for extended device battery-life. The ARM Mali Video processors also adhere to these values, offering a high-performance, low-bandwidth technology that scales to deliver protected video to a wide range of smartphones, tablets and SmartTVs. This has subsequently been joined by the ARM Mali Display processors, which offer content protection from download to display at significantly lower SoC bandwidth consumption.
When the graphics, video and display processors are implemented altogether in an SoC, ARM architectural benefits such as AFBC and Transaction Elimination come into their own and offer exceptional bandwidth savings. Software integration effort can also be reduced as each processor's Android driver will work efficiently with any other ARM driver straight out of the box. This optimized Android multimedia stack addresses universally resource-consuming challenges such as integrating and optimizing processors from different suppliers or supporting regular Android updates. By taking advantage of ARM's pre-optimized software stack, partners have more time to differentiate their solutions and bring their product to market sooner.

MARIETTA - A portion of South Seventh Street was reduced to one lane of traffic for a few hours Wednesday while crews looked for a valve to shut off water to a 6-inch main that developed a leak last Friday afternoon.
"Around 3 p.m. Friday we heard there was water running in the roadway along Ephraim Cutler Street. The 6-inch water main had cracked, and the pressure was so great that it was lifting up some of the asphalt just across the street from the McDonald's restaurant," said Jeff Kephart, Marietta's water superintendent.
He said workers dug up that portion of the street and found the water main, but the crew couldn't locate a nearby valve to reduce the water pressure while a clamp was installed.
"We finally clamped the pipe, but had to use a spud bar to hold the clamp in place while it was installed -water was spraying everywhere," Kephart said.
Because the water could not be shut off, McDonald's and other businesses in the Frontier Shopping Center, as well as Ridgewood Court Apartments, did not experience any service interruption.
"We didn't notice any problem and we weren't without water at all on Friday," said McDonald's owner Laurie Strahler.
Fact Box
Water Advisory
* Water service will be off for approximately one hour or less beginning at 2 p.m. today for Marietta customers in the Clifton Street, Ephraim Cutler Street, Frontier Shopping Center and Ridgewood Court Apartments area.
* The interruption is required so that crews can complete repairs to a 6-inch water main that broke along Ephraim Cutler Street last Friday.
* After work is completed and water service restored, the system will be flushed to provide adequate chlorine levels for disinfection purposes. A boil advisory will be in effect for 24 hours after water service is restored.
* Customers are advised to rapid boil their water for approximately two minutes following service restoration. Brown or milky water due to mineral deposits could also be experienced. Customers should flush their cold water lines until it runs clear.
* For more information, contact the city water treatment plant at 374-6864
Kephart said on Wednesday morning traffic was limited to one northbound lane on Seventh Street for a couple of hours while crews traced the water main from the break back along Ephraim Cutler to South Seventh Street where they eventually located the shutoff valve.
"We found it buried under two or three layers of blacktop," he said.
Water crews hope to close the valve and stop or reduce water pressure on the main line so that the clamp installed last week can be removed and the cracked portion of pipe cleaned off.
"The pipe surface has to be as smooth as a baby's bottom for the rubber seal on the clamp to fit properly for a more permanent fix," Kephart said. "If the break was a split pipe instead of just a crack, we would have had to cut out that section and replace the pipe."
He said at 2 p.m. today water service will be interrupted to customers on Clifton Street, Ephraim Cutler Street, businesses in the Frontier Shopping Center, including Subway, Giant Eagle, Tractor Supply and Ridgewood Court Apartments.
"We want to make a permanent repair on the line at that time. We're hoping it will take an hour or less," Kephart added.
Jarrod Schultheisz, project manager with the city engineering department, said aging water lines are an ongoing issue for the city.
"The water department's call-out hours are substantial because of water line breaks," he said. "Many of our water lines are pretty old. Last year we were experiencing break after break in the lines along Glendale Road, and the repairs were costing so much it made more sense to just replace the entire line."
The city has approximately 87 miles of underground water main. Some in the downtown area are more than a century old.
Kephart has said the city would like to replace at least a mile of water line every year.

Tahoe City's Purple Curtain is steeped in legacy. A true homegrown Tahoe band, its three members share more than 50 years of experience playing music around the lake. Guitarist and singer Matt Axton also happens to be a third generation songwriter, heir to a remarkable legacy of American music.
Playing Saturday night at the Hacienda del Lago in Tahoe City, Purple Curtain is Axton, Ken Bocland (bass), and Craig Harriman (drums). Fans have described the band's sound as somewhere between the Doors and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Axton said. He personally called it "good rocking country-blues stuff."
The trio has been playing together for audiences around Lake Tahoe for the last few years. Each of the three has a lengthy musical history, having played in numerous bands. In Axton's case, that history goes back two generations.
His father, the late Hoyt Axton, was an American folk musician, singer and songwriter who wrote the Kingston Trio's big hit "Greenback Dollar" and other well-known tunes like "Joy to the World" (hint: Jeremiah was a bullfrog) and "The Pusher." He also crossed over to acting, appearing in "Bonanza," "Gremlins," and "The Black Stallion," along with numerous other films and television programs.
One generation prior, Matt Axton's grandmother, Mae Boren Axton, co-wrote "Heartbreak Hotel," Elvis Presley's first big hit.
"I grew up around music my whole life, it was just there" Matt Axton said. "I'd go on tour with my dad on summers and vacations. I'd go all over the world with him. It was a very unique, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Not many people get to do that kind of stuff."
His mother also is a musician, a pianist who met his father on the Tahoe music circuit.
"My mom is a classically trained pianist. She was my dad's piano player, that's how they met," Axton said. "She was playing in bands up here in the late '70s and he was like, 'Hey, I need a piano player,' and that was it. So on one side I have this country bumpkin goofball songwriter as my dad and then I have this classically trained amazing musician as my mom. I like to say I'm somewhere right in the middle."
Despite growing up in such a musical family (or perhaps because of it), Axton was not very inclined toward music as a child.
"Music was just always sort of there. It was never something that you either did or didn't, it was just always sort of around," he said. "I never wanted to be particularly a rock star when I was a little kid, I always wanted to be a football player or basketball player."
That changed as Axton got older. After an abandoned attempt at a college degree and several relocations, he returned to Tahoe and picked up the guitar.
"I was like, 'wow, this is pretty easy,' in a way. I'm not saying I'm out there like shredding just anything, but it was really natural to write songs, and to pick up a guitar and sing," he said. "I just sort of ran with it."
The aspiring musician played with a number of hard rock bands for a few years before moving away from the genre.
"It just eventually started getting heavier and louder," Axton said. "I don't mean the music wasn't good, it's just that's not the music really for Tahoe. In Tahoe, you know, at the fancy restaurants, they want to be able to eat their steak and drink their wine without having to worry about you being too loud. It was a learning lesson, and it was awesome, I loved doing it. But for me creatively it wasn't the thing that I wanted to do."
That was when Axton joined up with Harriman and Bocland, longtime North Shore musicians who'd played in a number of local bands.
"They've been around, they're embedded I guess you could say," Axton said.
Harriman and Bocland were founding members of a Tahoe band called Fire Chicken.
"Ten or fifteen years ago they were pretty much the pre-eminent party band over here," Axton said. "They were the drummer and bass player for that band. I guess back in the day they went down to San Francisco and opened up for Jerry Garcia. That was like the big North Shore explosion at the time."
Axton was friends with Harriman's younger brother, through whom he knew the drummer. Harriman introduced Axton to Bocland, and the three started playing music together.
"We started jamming, probably like three and a half years ago, started building up a couple of songs," Axton said. "We played at a lot of house parties, a couple bars, little things like that. Over the last couple of years we've really started honing our craft, really buckling down."
Purple Curtain has worked on a few demo cds, but has yet to release a feature album.
"We don't have anything official, any big CDs, but we definitely have the material to do it," Axton said. "It's something that's always on our minds."
Like his family before him, Axton is a dedicated song-writer. He estimates that he's written around 250 tunes to date. One musical goal of his is to strike the right balance between artistic expression and the expectations of the audience.
"For me, I think music is something you have to push yourself as a musician but you don't want to make it so out there that the audience can't connect with it," he said. "You've got to find that good middle ground. When you find it, as a musician, that's it. It's like the holy grail, it's like a drug, something that transcends languages and ages and everything."
Hacienda del Lago has played home to Purple Curtain for some time.
"Over the last year or so, that's been sort of our home base," Axton said. "It has great acoustics, the size of the room is just perfect for live music in general."

Five years after being fired amid accusations that she tipped off her nephew to an impending police raid, former Oakland City Administrator Deborah Edgerly is back in the thick of city business.
SEIU, Local 1021 has hired Edgerly as a consultant to review the city's books as it continues negotiations on a new labor deal for more than 2,000 full and part-time city workers.
The union's executive director, Pete Castelli, said it considered Edgerly's unceremonious exit from City Hall but decided she could provide valuable insight looking over the city's financial statements.
"Whatever happened in the past is the past," he said. "Life goes on. People do other things."
Castelli said he didn't know how much Edgerly would be paid but said her role was limited and short-term.
Edgerly, who joined a strong union contingent at a recent City Council meeting, was accused in 2008 of alerting her nephew, William Lovan, of a major multiagency police raid on a West Oakland gang. Lovan was suspected of telling gang members about the raid.
Edgerly denied the accusations and never was charged. She could not be reached for comment Friday.
Lovan worked for the city as a parking meter repairman. A 2009 city audit found that Edgerly had hired several of her relatives, including her son and daughter, a niece and nephew.
Edgerly lost a wrongful termination lawsuit against the city.
Hayward councilman seeking mayoral post
Hayward Councilman Francisco Zermeno announced this week that he is running for mayor in 2014.
Michael Sweeney, who has served three terms as mayor, has not decided whether he will seek a fourth.
"People have been asking me whether I'm going to run again, including Francisco," Sweeney said.
The mayor wants to wait until this summer to reach a decision because "it's a little quieter and will give my wife and I some time to relax and talk about how we feel about my running again in 2014."
Zermeno, elected to a second four-year term in 2012, would still retain his council seat if he does not win his mayoral bid.
The Chabot College instructor, known for his phrase "Hayward on!" and a long proponent of supporting the city's merchants, said his campaign would focus on building a strong local economy and making it easier for businesses to open.
Sweeney, first elected to the City Council in 1982, served two terms before being elected mayor in 1990. He was then elected to two terms in the state Assembly before working at California Resources Agency.
He ran for mayor again in 2006 and was re-elected in 2010. Sweeney said the amount of time he spends in his role as mayor varies, but it averages about 40 hours per week, in addition to his regular job. Sweeney is executive director of Spectrum Community Services.
Zermeno said that Sweeney has done well as mayor, and "if I win, I will do well."
The councilman said running for a mayor is a natural political progression for him: He previously served on the city's library commission and planning commissions.

The ARMv8-R architecture complements the ARMv8-A architecture and builds on the rich heritage of the 32-bit ARMv7-R architecture used for the company's market-leading Cortex®-R series of real time processors.
A key innovation within the ARMv8-R architecture is the introduction of a 'bare metal' Hypervisor mode which enables programmers to combine different operating systems, applications and real-time tasks on a single processor whilst ensuring strict isolation between them. This facilitates software consolidation and re-use which will accelerate time-to-market and reduce development costs.
In addition, the ARMv8-R architecture will enable overall improvements in software quality and will support increasingly sophisticated embedded programming techniques such as model-based automated code generation.
The deployment of ARMv8-R architecture will reduce costs, increase efficiency and improve performance of embedded systems to support emerging automotive applications such as Advanced Driver Assistance Systems and Vehicle to Vehicle communications as well as factory automation applications and Human-Machine Interface. For example, a microcontroller incorporating an ARMv8-R processor could host Linux for graphical management and networking functions together with real-time operating system workloads such as motor control.
The ARMv8-R architecture also permits coexistence of both virtual memory and protected memory systems on the same processor enabling an Operating System using memory management, such as Linux, to be integrated with a Real Time Operating System.
Other ARMv8-R architecture features include:
- Improved memory protection scheme which substantially reduces context switching time
- ARM NEON™ advanced SIMD instructions for significantly improved radar and image processing tasks
- Instructions carried over from the ARMv8-A architecture such as CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) for use in detecting the corruption of program code or data.
In support of the introduction of the ARMv8-R architecture, ARM is working to ensure a robust design ecosystem to support the new features. The DS-5 ARM tools and Fast Models already support the ARMv8-A architecture, and support for the ARMv8-R architecture will be available to lead partners Q3'14. In addition timed models, automotive simulation system level tools and mechanical and electronic modelling tools are being developed by ARM EDA partners in advance of silicon.

text: When growing up as best pals in Concord, Blake Anderson and Kyle Newacheck, star and director of the Comedy Central series "Workaholics," sensed that a show-biz career was in their future. So soon after they graduated from Clayton Valley High School, they bolted for L.A. "There was just something in my soul saying that you can't settle in at home," Anderson recalls. "We had bigger dreams. And you're never never going to get attain that dream sitting on your mom's couch." Now they're part of one of Comedy Central's biggest hits. Just days ago, they were surprised to learn that the cable channel renewed "Workaholics" for not one, but two more seasons. The irreverent and edgy series about a trio of slacker buddies who work and party together averaged 2 million viewers last summer.

Washington boy finds giant maple leaf
Not quite a world record, paper reports
Published: Thursday, October 31, 2013 at 5:52 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, October 31, 2013 at 5:52 p.m.
MOUNT VERNON, Wash. (AP) — While playing in leaves, a 4-year-old Washington boy found a maple leaf almost as big as he is.
Tommy Lindsey of Mount Vernon was walking with his family Sunday when he picked up the leaf that is more than 2 feet from stem to tip and more than 21 inches wide.
The Skagit Valley Herald reports it's a little wider but shorter than the record maple leaf listed in Guinness World Records.

How to Lose Weight at 7-Eleven
Your pit stop just got a whole lot healthier thanks to these surprising tips from a leading dietitian
Now, we know what you're thinking: Vegetables? At 7-Eleven? Yeah, they are in short supply. Actually, they don't exist outside the V8 bottle. The best mini meal option, says Koff? A banana, a string cheese, a bag of (unsalted if you can find 'em) nuts, and a bottle of water. "Look for individual food items as opposed to things that are already prepared and flavored," says Koff. "But keep in mind that if you opt for fruit, you should also pick up some nuts so you get protein and healthy fat," she says.
Are you always going to choose this option? Our guess is no. So click on to see what your options are if you know you're going to splurge a little.

Fascinating tips in this article. Who thought that Kettle chips should be chosen over Pringles? That was a huge surprise.

This was pretty helpful. I love 7-11, but some of their stuff isn't too healthy. I like baked chips and Greek yogurt though, so I'm good on that!

I was intrigued by the title of this column, Lose weight at 7-11?!? How could it be? Well, I didn't find anything in this article that was specific to any convenience store diets. I mean... really if you're going to be eating healthy in the first place, 7-11 isn't the place to go for your food. I can understand an occasional grab-on-the-go snack, but most of the items in this article are thing that I would purchase as I grocery shop. Obviously, the tips are valid and can help shave some calories when making your food choice. But who is going to buy an apple or strawberries at a 7-11? Not me! Thanks for the alternative selections though I didn't realize that greek yogart was so much higher in protein - I've just hear that it doesn't taste good so I've been afraid to try it. Maybe now I will.

The Five Things You Need to Know About the Madoff Trial
The first criminal trial to arise out of the Bernard Madoff scandal is set to begin on Tuesday in federal court in Manhattan with official jury selection.
Five former Madoff underlings — two account supervisors, two computer programmers, and a former operations director — are accused of working with Mr. Madoff and others to deceive investors and keep the Ponzi scheme afloat. The defendants — George Perez, Jerome O'Hara, JoAnn Crupi, Annette Bongiorno and Daniel Bonventre — say they were duped like everyone else and were mere pawns. All five have pleaded not guilty.
Here are the five things you need to know about the trial.
1) Pay the closest attention to Frank DiPascali's testimony. To make its case, the government is likely to trot out a host of former Madoff employees who have pleaded guilty. None, however, is as important as Frank DiPascali, the firm's former chief financial officer and an employee of the firm for 33 years. Mr. DiPascali pleaded guilty in 2009 and conceded to knowing about the scheme and how it worked.
Defense lawyers will likely take their best shots on cross-examination. Expect them to focus on a 2006 Securities and Exchange Commission audit, during which Mr. DiPascali admitted to giving false information.
2) Take note of the testimony of Enrica Cotellessa-Pitz, Eric Lipkin and David Friehling. Outside of Mr. DiPascali, the testimony of these former employees will likely carry the most weight. Ms. Cotellessa-Pitz, the firm's former controller; Mr. Lipkin, the firm's former payroll manager; and Mr. Friehling, a former outside accountant; all have pleaded guilty to criminal charges, were long-time employees and would presumably know quite a bit about where the bodies are buried.
Defense lawyers will target their credibility, and will likely accuse the trio of cooperating only to win a reduction in their prison terms.
3) Don't expect Bernie to show. Nothing is out of the realm of possibility, but don't set your heart on seeing Mr. Madoff himself at the trial. He's serving a 150-year prison term in North Carolina.
Though he pleaded guilty, he didn't agree to cooperate with the government — so it'd be surprising to see him testify on its side. Furthermore, Mr. Madoff has steadfastly maintained that he managed the scheme alone. So don't look for him to go pointing fingers at others at this point. The only appearance from Mr. Madoff might come in a video during the defense's opening, according to WSJ's Christopher M. Matthews.
4) Expect tedium. In the big picture, this case is extremely interesting. After all, the trial represents the best, last chance for the government to lay out everything it knows about one of the biggest financial swindles in U.S. history.
That said, the devil is in the details — and there will be lots of them. Many days and weeks between now and the spring (yes, this case is slated to run four or five months) will be filled with testimony about bank statements, computer systems and accounting practices. Some days, there may be fireworks. Other days, not so much.
5) Things could get tawdry. In August, prosecutors made an interesting request to the presiding judge, Laura Taylor Swain, asking her to exclude evidence that "various" employees — "including all but one of the defendants, several Government witnesses, and Bernard Madoff himself – were at various times in romantic and/or sexual relationships with one another."
Juicy, no? Well, possibly. Judge Swain hasn't ruled on the motion, instructing the parties to try to reach some sort of agreement on the issue. So far, lawyers involved in the case have stayed mum.

martial 1
- The martial, or fighting arts are among humankind's oldest avocations.
- In the opening part there are fight scenes woven around him to introduce us to his martial skills.
- Some may be obscure to people who haven't read much about martial culture or military history.
martially adverbio
- Oraciones de ejemplo
- 'It hardly needs to be said that my husband is martially skilled,' Adriana went on, 'and I myself am skilled as well.'
- Leaving the Priests - their less martially inclined counterparts - to spread the inspiring words of the Goddess, the holy warriors preferred to let their actions speak for them, battling evil with their uniquely crafted weapons.
- You are arguably the most martially capable hand-to-hand fighter in this fleet besides myself.
Late Middle English: from Old French, or from Latin martialis, from Mars, Mart- (see Mars).
march from Late Middle English:
There are three English words march, if you include March. The march with the sense 'to walk in a military manner' came from French marcher 'to walk' in the late Middle Ages. If you march to a different tune you consciously adopt a different approach or attitude to the majority of people. The variant march to a different drummer was inspired by an observation from the 19th-century US essayist and poet Henry David Thoreau: 'If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer.'
Another march means 'the border or frontier of a country', now found mainly in the geographical term the Marches, used for the area of land on the border of England and Wales, such as the counties of Shropshire and Monmouthshire. It too came from French, but is probably related to mark, from the idea of a boundary marker.
The month is named after Mars, the Roman god of war, and was originally the first month of the Roman calendar. Weather lore from the early 17th century tells us that March comes in like a lion, and goes out like a lamb—traditionally the weather is wild at the beginning of March, but fair and settled by the end. The name of the god Mars is also the source of martial (Late Middle English), 'relating to fighting or war', which entered English in the late Middle Ages. The martial arts, sports such as judo, karate, and kendo, originated in Japan, China, and Korea and first came to European attention in the late 19th century, though the general term martial arts is not recorded until 1920.

It wasn't that long ago that Phil Mickelson was described as the best player never to have won a major. How things change in short order. With a second win at Augusta, Lefty now has three major victories.
He finished up round 3 Sunday morning with a one shot lead. Despite several golfers drawing even during the final round, it was Mickelson who was the real closer, and he never faltered. Just the opposite: he hit the gas pedal. A birdie on 13 and a birdie on 15 gave him a lead that was pretty much insurmountable.
"I don't know if there was a turning point," Mickelson says. "I know when I made the putt on 15, I felt victory was at hand. With those three holes it's never a sure thing and I wanted to make sure I played them well, but when I made birdie on 15 I really felt it was mine to control."
All told, Mickelson shot a final round 70 with his only bogey on 18 after the victory was academic. With a green jacket already hanging in his locker, this time around felt a little different.
"In 2004 when I won, I felt this great feeling of relief, that I could do it, that I could finally come through and win the tournament I dreamed about and win one of the majors. This time it's a great feeling of satisfaction and accomplishment to be able to beat such a great field," Mickelson says.
Mick is now the 16th player in Masters history to win the tournament at least twice.

Pronounced: skits-uh-FREN-ee-uh
Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe, disabling brain disorder. It interferes with the way a person interprets reality. People with schizophrenia may:
These and other symptoms make it difficult for people with schizophrenia to have positive relationships with others.
Regions of the Brain
Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
The cause of schizophrenia is unknown but it is associated with problems in brain structure and chemistry. There may be some genetic role.
Schizophrenia does not develop because of one factor. You may have a gene that increases your chance of schizophrenia, but you may not develop the disease based on your environment. Environment means any outside factor like stress or infection.
Factors that may increase your chance of schizophrenia include:
Men typically develop symptoms in their late teens or early twenties. Schizophrenia in women tends to occur in their twenties or thirties. In rare cases, it is seen in childhood.
Symptoms often appear slowly. They may become more disturbing and bizarre over time or occur in a matter of weeks or months.
Symptoms may include:
Your doctor will ask you about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Schizophrenia is diagnosed by certain symptoms that:
The doctor will rule out other causes, such as drug use, physical illness, or other mental health conditions.
Schizophrenia is not curable, but it is highly treatable. Hospitalization may be required during acute episodes. Symptoms are usually controlled with antipsychotic medications.
Talk to your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Options may include one or more of the following:
Antipsychotics work by blocking certain chemicals in the brain. This helps control the abnormal thinking that occurs in people with schizophrenia. Determining a drug plan can be a complicated process. Often medications or dosages need to be changed until the right balance is found. This can take months or even years. The right balance of medication will have the least amount of side effects possible with the greatest benefit.
It is important to continue taking the medication even if you are feeling better. Symptoms will return once the medication has been stopped. A long-acting injection instead of daily pills may be used if you have difficulty taking regular medication.
Antipsychotics also have side effects that may make it difficult to stick to a medication routine. Common side effects include:
Medications called atypical antipsychotics have fewer side effects and are better tolerated over long periods of time. However, these medications may cause weight gain, high blood sugar, and high cholesterol.
Depression and anxiety can often occur with schizophrenia. They may be treated with:
Schizophrenia is a lifelong condition. It can be confusing and frightening for the person with the disease and for family members. Individual and family therapy can address:

This is an excerpt from EERE Network News, a weekly electronic newsletter.
February 22, 2006
President Bush Promotes the Advanced Energy Initiative
President George W. Bush focused on energy in late February to promote his Advanced Energy Initiative. On February 20th, President Bush released a detailed description of the initiative and visited Johnson Controls, which is developing advanced hybrid batteries, and United Solar Ovonic LLC, a solar cell manufacturer. United Solar Ovonic—a wholly owned subsidiary of Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. (ECD)—announced on February 16th that it will expand its manufacturing capacity from its current 25 megawatts of solar cells per year to 300 megawatts per year by 2010. During his visits, the President discussed the promise of solar cells; wind power; hybrid vehicles; plug-in hybrids; ethanol fuels made from both corn and from cellulosic biomass, such as switchgrass or wood chips; and hydrogen and its use in fuel cell vehicles. The President also discussed clean coal and nuclear power technologies. See the ECD press release, the detailed description of the Advanced Energy Initiative, and the White House press releases on the President's visits to Johnson Controls and United Solar Ovonic.
On February 21st, the President visited DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), the first presidential visit to the laboratory in 28 years. At NREL, President Bush joined in a panel discussion with NREL Director Dan Arvizu; Larry Burns of the General Motors Corporation; Patty Stulp, who runs an ethanol blending business; Bill Frey of DuPont; Lori Vaclavik of Habitat for Humanity; Pat Vincent of the Public Service Company of Colorado; and DOE's Dale Gardner. See the White House's abbreviated transcript of the discussion.
A $28-million budget shortfall at NREL recently led to a layoff of 32 employees, including 8 researchers and 24 support staff. On February 20th, DOE transferred an additional $5 million to NREL to allow all the jobs to be immediately restored. See the NREL and DOE press releases.

The inaugural Peak to Peak Dual Slalom series wrapped up the successful event on the newest feature of the Frisco bike park Friday.
The dual slalom track, which opened June 21, offers a venue where two riders can compete alongside each other.
A total of 35 participants came out for the third and final race in the series. The first in the series hosted 39 riders, the second hosted 29.
Friday's race picked up where the series left off on July 6, making up the final match-ups from the second race, which were postponed due to rain.
The race began slightly after its scheduled 5:15 p.m. start time and had several spectators present for the final day in the series.
Organizers were pleased with the large turnout in the boys 13 and under category, with 10 riders.
Jerry Wagner, visiting from Austin, Texas, watched his son, Will, 12, compete in the event.
"It's great to see young kids out here just going for it," Wagner said.
The series concluded with an award ceremony for the overall winners who competed in all three races.
Track designers organized the Peak to Peak series, which began June 29, to showcase the new addition to the park.
"The dual slalom is such a great addition to the park," said Carter Thomas, a rider competing in the women's open/elite category. "There isn't another place where you can be right next to another rider and race along a super competitive track like this."
The inaugural Peak to Peak series ended on a positive note.
"We are ecstatic about the way this series went," said Jon "Zeke" Zdechlik, Frisco Adventure Park general manager. "We've had a lot of repeat competitors and everyone seems to be having a lot of fun."
The Peak to Peak series and the Frisco bike park offer tracks for all ability levels to utilize, including a pump course, a jump facility, slope-style runs, and the newest dual slalom race course.
"The culture that the park offers makes this place a great venue for young riders," Zdechlik said. "Older riders are great about reaching out, everyone feels like this is a place where they can exert their ability, no matter what level it might be."
With the series finished, Zdechlik says that the summer will offer several other opportunities to enjoy the Frisco bike park.
"We really want to give back to the community as much as possible," Zdechlik said. "We want to throw summer parties with lawn games that the whole family can enjoy."
Park staff recently fine tuned a portion of the jump facility, which is open to the public every day.
"They just softened a big gap in the jump facility," Zdechlik said. "We've had good reviews, it seems to be riding a lot better."

IRS Issues Guidance on Commercial Building Tax Deduction
The U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued on June 2nd an advance copy of a notice on how commercial building owners or leaseholders can qualify for a federal tax deduction by making their buildings more energy efficient. The commercial building deduction, which was enacted in the Energy Policy Act of 2005, allows taxpayers to deduct the cost of energy-efficient property installed in commercial buildings. The amount deductible may be as much as $1.80 per square foot of building floor area for buildings that cut their energy use by half. Buildings that fall below that target can still earn a deduction of 60 cents per square foot if they at least cut their energy use by one sixth.
Before claiming the deduction, the taxpayer must obtain a certification that the required energy savings will be achieved, and the notice describes how to obtain that certification. To support this effort, DOE will create and maintain a public list of software that must be used to calculate energy savings for purposes of providing the certification.

For more information on tax incentives, see EnergyTaxIncentives.org, a project of the Tax Incentives Assistance Project, as well as the Web site of the Commercial Building Tax Deduction Coalition. In addition, the National Lighting Bureau (NLB) has created a brochure (PDF 903 KB) about how the tax incentives encourage high-efficiency indoor lighting.
