Stocks to Watch: Bed Bath & Beyond, Family Dollar, Intercept Pharma
Among the companies with shares expected to actively trade in Thursday's session are Bed Bath & Beyond, Family Dollar Stores and Intercept Pharmaceuticals
Bed Bath & Beyond fiscal third-quarter earnings edged up 1.9% as the home-furnishings retailer recorded an increase in sales. However, the company lowered its earnings outlook for the fiscal year and current quarter and shares declined 9.1% to $72.47 premarket.
Cato, a specialty retailer of value-priced fashion apparel and accessories, trimmed its earnings expectations for the year, after posting softer December sales. Shares edged down 3.9% to $30 in light premarket trading.
Family Dollar Stores lowered its full-year earnings expectations, as the discount retailer posted weaker first-quarter same-store sales and warned of continued revenue challenges in the new year. Shares dropped 7.3% to $61.50 premarket.
Ford Motor increased its quarterly dividend by 25%, following a sharp selloff of the auto maker's shares since it warned of weaker profits in 2014. The company raised the payout to 12.5 cents a share, up from 10 cents. The increase should cost Ford an additional $97 million a quarter. Shares edged up 1.2% to $15.72 premarket.
Fred's said it hired advisers to explore strategic options for the discount merchandise retailer as it reported its holiday sales were somewhat disappointing and it outlined a revamp of its merchandising and marketing teams. Shares rose 4.8% to $18.61 premarket.
Global Payments fiscal second-quarter profit jumped 5.3% as the credit-card processor reported higher revenue, though operating margin narrowed. Results for the period exceeded Wall Street's expectations, pushing shares up 2.5% to $66 premarket.
Intercept Pharmaceuticals said a trial for its lead product candidate was stopped early after the study already met its primary endpoint. The trial was being conducted for obeticholic acid, a potential treatment for the chronic liver disease nonalcoholic steatohepatitis. Shares more than doubled premarket to $197.94.
L Brands lowered its earnings guidance for the fiscal fourth quarter as incremental promotional activity led to lower-than-expected merchandise margins. Shares dropped 4.5% to $57.50 premarket.
Macy's is laying off about 2,500 employees as part of a plan to cut costs and generate $100 million in annual savings, a move that helped the company issue an upbeat profit outlook for the new fiscal year. Shares climbed 6.5% to $55.22 premarket.
Material Sciences agreed to be acquired by Zink Acquisition Holdings Inc. in a deal valued at $133 million. The maker of acoustical materials also reported that its fiscal third-quarter earnings fell 51% amid lower margins. Shares surged 14% to $12.75 premarket, matching the per-share offer price.
Mistras Group fiscal second-quarter earnings edged up 1% as the company reported an increase in revenue, driven in part by acquisitions. Adjusted earnings topped Wall Street's estimates and the company boosted its revenue guidance. Shares rose 6.5% to $23.90 in light premarket trading.
Pier 1 Imports cut its full-year earnings guidance, after the home-furnishings retailer reported much lower than anticipated December sales. "We're extremely disappointed that December sales results came in well below our expectations, especially considering our holiday selling season kicked off with a record post-Thanksgiving weekend," said Chief Executive Alex W. Smith. Shares dropped 10% to $20.96 premarket.
Urban Outfitters said it posted record sales during the holiday season, with sharply higher same-store sales at Anthropologie and Free People locations. Shares edged up 1.9% to $38.57 premarket.
American Eagle Outfitters joined the list of retailers tempering their outlooks post-holidays as the teen apparel retailer cited lower traffic and sales through the Christmas week.
Calix, a supplier of telecommunications equipment, tempered fourth-quarter expectations due to lower so-called "budget flush" spending than what the company normally experiences.
Community Health Systems unveiled several executive promotions and a restructuring of the hospital company's divisions ahead of a pending acquisition of peer Health Management Associates (HMA).
Masco has named insider Keith Allman to the building-products manufacturer's president and chief executive roles, succeeding Timothy Wadhams, who is retiring after a 37-year career at the company.
Medtronic Symplicity technology, used for renal denervation procedures to treat difficult cases of hypertension, missed primary goals for efficacy in a U.S. clinical trial. The medical-device maker said Symplicity met primary endpoints for safety and as a result no specific action is currently indicated for patients who have had the renal denervation procedure with the Symplicity system.
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said Wednesday his office has filed a lawsuit against a U.S. unit of Swiss pharmaceutical giant Novartis regarding an alleged kickback scheme related to its iron-reduction drug, Exjade.
Ruby Tuesday fiscal second-quarter loss widened sharply on weaker same-store sales and customer traffic. The casual-dining chain also unveiled more details of its restructuring plans, including the planned closures of 30 restaurants that will mostly take place in the current quarter.
Supervalu fiscal third-quarter earnings nearly doubled on lower expenses and growth at its Save-A-Lot business. But revenue declined and missed expectations.
T-Mobile US said it added more than 1.6 million total customers in the fourth quarter, the third quarter in a row that the carrier has generated more than 1 million customer additions.
Texas Industries fiscal second-quarter loss widened as the construction-materials company reported higher product costs and a jump in interest expenses, masking broad sales growth that boosted the top line.
WD-40 fiscal first-quarter profit rose 4.9% as the company recorded an uptick in sales of its multi-purpose products, including its flagship lubricant spray.

Trying to determine whether placing two well ranked sites, for similar products, on the same server (due to administration simplicity and use separate DNS zones on different (one using an external DNS service) name servers and IPs in two different class B's, -OR- simply to host one site "off-site" so-to-speak on a different ISP?
The main consideration is whether the SEs would penalize competing sites for collusion if they were simply behind the same core router or if it takes same subnet, or even same machine..?
Obviously this is all speculation, but does anyone have an opinion whether HTTP finger printing to determine sites hosted on the same box have ever been (or likely to be?) an issue from an SEO perspective?
See [net-square.com...] for reference..
separate DNS zones on different (one using an external DNS service) name servers and IPs in two different class B's,
I think you'll be OK with this strategy. One thing to keep in mind in addition to the above is the whois info for your domains. You want that to be different, too.
About the only way the engines will be able to tell the sites are related is through links (duh) and that the IP addresses (even different Class Bs) are registered to the same company/person. If you go through a large host, though, there should be no problem with that.

People are invited to join the HEARTBEAT Balloon Launch and the Out of Darkness Community Walk on Sept. 15.
The sixth annual balloon launch for suicide victims starts at 8:30 a.m. at Eagle Town Park.
The Eagle Valley community walk is 3 to 5 miles, beginning at Eagle Town Park at 9 a.m. and ending there at approximately 11 a.m.
This is the first walk of its kind in the area. The fund-raising walk supports the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) by helping to support local and national suicide prevention and awareness programs.
The Eagle Valley Out of the Darkness Walk is one of nearly 250 Out of the Darkness Community Walks being held this fall nationwide. The walks are expected to unite more than 100,000 walkers nationally and raise more than $7.5 million for suicide prevention efforts.
"Much more needs to be done to prevent suicide. Yet, suicide and the underlying mental disorders that can sometimes lead to suicide continue to be surrounded by misinformation and stigma," said Erin Ivie, an organizer of the Eagle event. "This walk is about reducing that stigma, raising awareness and raising needed funds for research and local prevention programs."
It is estimated that close to 1 million Americans make a suicide attempt, more than 36,000 die by suicide, and more than 20 million suffer from depression each year.
"Every 15 minutes someone dies by suicide in the U.S," said Robert Gebbia, Executive Director for AFSP. "This fall, thousands will be walking to raise money for prevention and awareness, and offer hope to the millions of people who have lost a loved one to suicide or who battle personally with depression, bipolar illness, addiction and other mental illnesses".
Local sponsors for the Eagle Valley Out of the Darkness Community Walk include: Peaks of Excellence, Samaritan Counseling Center, US Bank, First Bank of Vail, Eagle Ranch Association, Eagle Sinclair, Archibeque Land Consulting Ltd. and Mountain Pedaler of Vail.

The leaves are already beginning to change colors in Colorado's high country.
Seeing the changing autumn leaves is a long-standing Colorado tradition that generally takes place mid-September to mid-October each year. AAA Colorado, the Colorado Department of Transportation and Colorado Parks and Wildlife want to let people know where to drive and how to drive safely for some of the best views this season.
Colorado Parks and Wildlife has a website devoted entirely to Colorado's fall colors (www.parks.state.co.us/Pages/Fall.aspx) with information about where and when fall colors are blooming, where to stay overnight, where to drive near the fall foliage for the very best views. Take a look at the "Rush to the Gold/Fall Colors" brochure on that page and learn about eight recommended car trips in Colorado to see the splendor of fall.
CDOT's Scenic and Historic Byways are also excellent routes for Coloradans and visitors alike to see the state. For more information about Colorado's Scenic and Historic Byways program, including a map, visit www.coloradodot.info/travel/scenic-byways.
Finally, AAA Colorado has identified routes that provide exceptional autumn drives including:
• Independence Pass, accessible via State Highway 82 and US 24 near Twin Lakes and Aspen
• Crystal River Valley, accessible via State Highway 133 south of Carbondale
• McClure Pass and Kebler Pass, accessible via State Highway 133 south of Marble
• Aspen Ridge and Salida, accessible via US 285 in Chaffee County
• Cripple Creek, accessible via US 24 at State Highway 67 from Colorado Springs
CDOT recommends a few safety tips for motorists as they are driving:
• If you are planning to take photos, pull completely off the highway into the right-of-way and turn on your hazard lights so other drivers can better see you.
• Don't forget to focus on your driving and try not to be distracted by the beauty surrounding you. Switching drivers is a great way to allow everyone to see the leaves and to keep drivers focused on the task at hand.
• Be sure you and your passengers buckle up.
• Be aware during dusk and twilight hours that wildlife is more likely to be on the road, and be sure to stay alert.
• If you become tired, take a break and use the AAA Mobile app on your iPhone or Android to check out local discounts offered in the area around you.
CDOT would love to see any photos motorists take of the beauty that exists along our state highways. Photos can be shared on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/coloradodot.

I am so tired of running around with forms from ccombined trying to get a doctor to fill them out. The Dr. is very unfamiliar with these forms and they are to fill out. The secratary often takes them because the DR. has better things to do then figure these forms out. Usually I am told they will send them back to me but don't show up. I drive back and forth and finally get them in and get a lousey $70 when I thought I was getting $400. It is not worth all the time and frustration to only get gas money for your time running forms around. They are doing this to keep claims down and profit up..

To be fair, Sage did "retire" from prolonged nationwide tours. Not music. Not producing new records. Not touring. Not doing shows all over the nation and even the world. He just retired from living out of his Prius for 4 month stints.

You know what I wonder about? How guest spots on records work. When the spots are between label mates, is it pro bono on some greater good shit? Same with between friends? Is a contract worked about between labels, or is the artist considered a separate entity when not releasing a record? Is it an individual thing, like buddies getting together and helping build a garage? Is it callous and sterile, like one verse equals $1000 or something? These things run through my mind all day. ALL DAY.

I can only speak on our circle, but I've never heard of anyone charging money for verses. It's almost always pro bono. Sometimes it's done with a promise of getting a verse or a beat in return.

i feel that.
i've never charged for a verse. kinda.
there was one time some friends on a major demanded that i charged something.
they knew they were not going to recoup, so they went for as much up front as possible.
in the process, they made sure to fill some of their friends' pockets as well.
i kept the price humble enough though.
other than that i've never charged for a verse.
but i rarely ever get on songs with people who aren't my friends.
maybe someday i will regret not selling verses to strangers on myspace. doubtful, but you never know.

That seems the best way to go. One thing ive learned the hard way is you don't mix money w friends. It can make things really weird. Same thing w family. There's nothing like the shame of pistol whipping your grandma in front of the block, but you know....gotta keep it real if she don't have your money.
Of course I'm kidding about gm.

That's talking more on this end of the spectrum though, right; it's surely not always gonna be like that.
I gotta believe that when some pop act gets Busta Rhymes to come shout in a funny voice for 8 bars to lend them some credibility on their lead single he's getting PAID for that shit.

Yeah. And at that level people are usually getting royalty points, so it's not so much what you get paid up front, it's the percentage you make off of the song in the long run.

Ludacris must be doing well. He's on every song on the radio these past few years. Justin Beiber, Enrique Iglesias, Usher, Flo Rida, T.I., T-Pain, etc. etc.
I mean honestly he's like a verse-whore.

Civil War section puts local faces on conflict
April 29, 2011 - Art Smith
The Mid-Ohio Valley has been a hot bed of history since the first pioneers came floating down the Ohio River in 1788.
An important part of the history of the area pertains to the Civil War, a conflict that literally created West Virginia and is being observed around the state because it happened 150 years ago.
On Thursday The News and Sentinel printed a special section highlighting the role the area and the people who lived here had in the War Between the States.
The material contained in the section has now been added to the community section, which is part of NewsandSentinel.com. The community section contains dozens of pages of information about area schools, communities and rivers; it will now also contain the Civil War information, allowing people worldwide to discover the information.
A lot of families in the area are descendants of people who fought on one side or the other, and in some cases both sides, of the conflict. We wanted to add a place where people could spotlight what role their family had in the war. To do that we added a new Local History section to our popular Reader Forums. Within Local History, we added a topic where people can talk about their family's involvement in the Civil War.
There is a direct link from the Civil War section to the topic.
150 years ago newspapers were the primary way people learned what was going on in the war. Today newspapers (and their websites) are still providing the most detailed information about the war.

SPACE HULK returns for 20th anniversary!
Just saw this at the nearby hobby shop in a glass case.
The new plastic genestealers look cool, though may have some overhang issues on 1" round bases.
Space Hulk (3rd Edition) | Board Game | BoardGameGeek
Space Hulk is Back! | 2009-08-17 04:11:01.0 | What's New Today | Games Workshop
Space Hulk
From the depths of space an ancient vessel drifts slowly towards the Imperium of Mankind - a space hulk. Within its confines, untold thousands of Genestealers slowly emerge from hibernation. The Space Marines must enter the cramped corridors and tomb-like chambers of the ancient ship to defeat this alien menace.
Space Hulk is a board game for two players, recreating the battles fought between the Space Marines and Genestealers. One player commands the Space Marines as they carry out deadly missions in the ancient Space Hulk, and the other commands the horde of Genestealers opposing them. Space Hulk's fast-paced rules simulate the tense atmosphere of a mission deep inside the cramped confines of a derelict space hulk, where split-second decisions are needed for victory.
This boxed game contains: a 23-page Rulebook, a 47-page Mission book and 35 finely-detailed, plastic Citadel miniatures, including: 11 Space Marine Terminators, one Space Marine Terminator Librarian, 22 Genestealers, and one Broodlord.
Also included are: 105 gaming counters, 24 corridors, 10 rooms, eight crossroads, eight T-junctions, six corner sections, four dead ends, four end pieces, 20 doors with plastic stands, one mission status display, and three plastic mission objectives, including: a dead Space Marine on throne, a Blood Angels artefact and a Cyber-Altered Task Unit. Plus a sand timer and five bone-coloured dice unique to this game.
- Availability: This product is available for pre-order and will be released on the 5th of September.

I want to be excited but entry fee is high
I want to be excited for Space Hulk, given the game play and the way people remember it so fondly. Unfortunately the entry price seems rather steep for a game that comes with figures that are already practically mass produced by GW and look like they might be made out of an even cheaper more rigid plastic.

I still have 99% of my Space Hulk stuff for the 90's. If I ever get the yearnin' I'll just break that out. No need for me to plunk down $120+ for a game I already have!

And on a related note, I've noticed GW got a little more strict on fan sites with Space Hulk related content. Not all, but some sites had to take down their space hulk related goodies. What's more irksome, GW themselves had had some DIY space hulk articles on their own site for a while if I understood correctly, though those now seem gone

Got my copy.
What's kind of disturbing is that a lot of folks on Board game geek web site have been uploading photos of the space hulk game with their small children, almost as if the game is now their second [or third] child. Space Hulk | Board Game | BoardGameGeek

Played a game with my (typically non-gaming) wife. She took the Marines and I took the 'stealers. She won with minimal tactical assistance on my side. Lots of fun =)

I thought I would hate...
I'm a very picky eater and I always thought I would hate many things. As I grew up I learned to give new tastes a try and with that came the love of many foods I thought I would always hate.
Those foods include:
Spinach Artichoke Dip
Yellow and Green Zuchinni
Pear Cake
Banana Bran Muffins
Mocha Coffee
Brazil Nut Milk in Coffee
Pork Gyoza
Pad Thai
Lo Mein
Medium Rare Steak
There are many more foods that I eat now that I would have never even tried when I was a child, or even a teenager. But I must say that our palates mature and we are more open to eating things that taste different.
Now I am trying to include fish in my diet, more sea food. I don't normally eat sea food, unless it's chunk light tuna from a can, but the other day I ate fish, made at home, by myself. I ate it slowly, it is not something I'm used to eating, but it didn't taste bad. I want to give my daughters a good example, they where shocked!
-Mommy! What are you eating?
-Fish and what else? You are not eating chicken?
-no, no chicken.
-Just fish?
-yup, just fish.
My daughters looked at me in disbelief, but it felt good. They know I am a picky eater like them and by me taking the fist step and eating something that I claim not to like I am opening the doors for them to try new and different things in the future, and that makes me feel proud.
Is there something you tried that you thought you would hate, but didn't?
Tell me about it.

When I start the media server either as a service or by using the desktop icon that the installer put there it does not communicate with my PS3 most of the time. If I start it using the DOS batch file PMS.BAT it works fine.
Windows XP SP3
Java run-time R6 Update 1
PS3 -> 802.11G wireless connection
Router = D-Link DI-524
PC -> Wired connection to router
Resolution Attempts:
Verified Windows firewall is turned off
Verified that router firewall is letting UDP and TCP traffic through on port 5001
Verified the router firewall is letting SSDP traffic through on TCP port 5000, and UDP port 1900
Verified that PS3 can connect to the Internet
Verified that I can ping the PS3 from the PC
Checked status tab in media server and it reports nothing unusual
Checked log file in media server folder for any protocol or java errors - none reported.
I suspect that maybe it has something to do with the UseIPV4 command line option passed in from the batch file. Can anyone confirm this or advise on what I should do so that I can run the media server as a service rather than a desktop application?

The St. Regis San Francisco
Promoted Stories
Best Hotels in San Francisco
No. 10 St. Regis, San Francisco
Unlike its predecessor in NYC, this St. Regis is modern—Jean-Michel Frank modern, that is—in both style and amenities: master panels that control all the lights and shades; a fax/copier/printer in each room; "rainforest" and regular showerheads; plus the usual flat-screen TV's, DVD/CD players, and Wi-Fi and Ethernet Internet access. The hotel and its 260 rooms are furnished in a symphony in beige and wood grain. (In the vestibule, the walls are covered in beige leather; behind the headboards, a beige faux shagreen.) Even in the standard rooms, the bathrooms feel monumental, like the Met's Temple of Dendur; each has a separate tub and shower stall with bench.

Advent and Christmas always mean a busy time where I work—both here at Franciscan Media and in my nearby inner-city parish. Before I sat down to write these reflections, for example, I had already made several trips back and forth across the street that separates my two jobs, as I attend to the busy agendas in each ministry!
Over in the "friary," the residence adjoining the church, a "Franciscan Christmas" is in advanced preparation stages. I've done my part, setting up displays that carry on the tradition encouraged by our founder, St. Francis, nearly 800 years ago. Francis understood that the mystery of Jesus—God become human—was best conveyed to the senses, and thus to our hearts, by imagery. And so, the live nativity he created for people in a mountaintop village was an "instant hit." People "got it," and from there it has spread to wherever Franciscan hearts celebrate Christmas.
Here on the "media" side of the street, our thoughts are already turning to 2011, as we wrap up our Advent and Christmas programs (see below) and prepare for the new year ahead. We've launched our new "Franciscan Media" Web site (http://www.franciscanmedia.org/) and are working to fill it with audio and video offerings each day.
There, you'll find links to all we do—not just our "flagship program," American Catholic Radio. In the months ahead, we'll be working to transform this newsletter as well, to help it better reflect our wide range of offerings, and the "look" of the new Web site. Please let us know how you like it, and what we can do to make it better.
We have many surprises planned for 2011: new video projects, a new line of audiobooks, new ways to deliver our video resources to our audience, and of course, the best in Catholic radio, through ACR, Sharing the Word and the rest of our audio resources.
A merry and blessed Christmas in the spirit of St. Francis! And a new year devoted to the encounter with Jesus Christ, through the new media!

A quick test: Install the 486 version of the kernel you have installed.
(I guess your laptop has a Pentium?) That helped on an VAIO which was
running extremely slow on the new etch kernel (the 686 version).

225gr / 8oz white sugar
225gr / 8oz granulated brown sugar
200gr / 7oz melted butter
2 eggs
250gr / 0.5lb flour
1.5 cup oatmeal
1 tbsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup M&Ms (~200gr)
1 cup Peanuts
Mix the white and brown sugar, the butter, the eggs and the vanilla to a light mix. Add flour, oatmeal, salt and baking powder. Finally mix in the M&Ms and peanuts (warning, it gets very heavy to mix together, this is as it is supposed to be, you're not doing anything wrong).
Put the dough onto a baking sheet using spoons. I find that one heaped teaspoon is about the right size for a proper cookie. Make sure there's lots of space between each 'blob' of dough, as it spreads a lot while being baked.
Bake at 175C/350F for 14-18 minutes - ~14 for moist cookies, ~18 for crisp cookies.
Put on a flat surface to cool down as they're very bendable/breakable until cool.
Eat with great pleasure and no guilt – they taste too good to be destroyed by guilt.

I _know_ the scope of SPF and DKIM. They both don't say that mail is ham or
the spam, they only say if it's forged:
- if it's forged, it's likely to be spam.
That's why many people reject mail that (hardly) fails SPF (and maybe DKIM).
- if it's not forged, we do not know anything about it.
That's why the SPF_PASS and DKIM_VERIFIED scores are nearly zero by default.
Spammers use SPF, maybe they (will) use DKIM, but the last fact above makes
us safe not to trust any mail that passes SPF/DKIM checks.
What you are doing, is that you (as I repeat) intentionally make all
DKIM-signed spams pass, so spammers using DKIM will pass your system unless
they get ~50 points from other rules.

I have never said that DKIM or SPF is bad. I said that scores for them
passing are and should be (nearly) zero.
Giving them that big negative (well... low) score is just stupid.
I strongly advise you to remove that customisation and let other rules do
their job. Otherwise you'll get flooded by spammers who DKIM-sign their

ANZ Frequent Flyer Black Ad
The Uber chauffeur drive service has launched in Brisbane and is offering free rides during the 'soft launch' phase.
Uber, which lets you use a simple smartphone app to book and pay for a private hire car at 'near-taxi' prices, warns that "availability will be extremely limited" during the trial period.
The free rides are limited to trips "within metro Brisbane" and two rides per Uber account per week.
"Your best chance of nabbing an Uber is in the CBD, Fortitude Valley, New Farm and Paddington areas" during the early test phase, the company suggests, adding that it is "working extremely hard to expand our coverage and get more cars on the road."
New Uber customers in Brisbane (or anywhere else for that matter) can sign up for the service at uber.com and enter the special Australian Business Traveller promotion code of uberAusBT to add $10 free Uber credit to their account, which will count against your first paid ride in an Uber car.
(Disclaimer: we'll also pick up $10 of Uber credit when you take that ride, so it's a win-win.)
Read: Get $10 discount with our Uber promo code
Uber doesn't actually employ the drivers or own the cars, but rather provides a go-between to link drivers who have some downtime between booked jobs with people seeking a quality ride that's a cut above a taxi.
Uber counts many business travellers among its customers, especially for runs to and from the airport.

Founded in March 7, 1963, the NIH Radio Amateur Club has provided over a half century of voluntary public service, safety, and emergency-preparedness communications to the National Institutes of Health, and to the local, regional, national and international communities.
Membership in our Radio Amateur Club is open to anyone interested in the hobby. We conduct monthly in-person meetings in the Bethesda Campus of the National Institutes of Health (Maryland, USA) the FIRST SATURDAY of every month at 1PM. See below for directions. We also hold on-the-air meetings, or radio nets, every Monday night at 8:30PM EST and participate in a number of amateur radio activities. See our Home page for updated information.
NIHRAC is affiliated with the National Institutes of Health, the primary U.S. Federal Government organization responsible for medical and behavioral research. NIH supports our club with facilities and equipment to promote the technical and professional development of our membership, enabling us to provide a higher level of service to our community and nation.
We are an integral part of the NIH Continuity of Operations Plan (COOP) and maintain a close working relationship with The NIH Clinical Center, the hospital on the Bethesda, MD campus. Because of this role, our Club facility is called the NIHRAC Volunteer Emergency Communications Facility (VECF). Our club participates in the biannual emergency preparedness exercise by providing communications at the hospital and other emergency preparedness events (for example, see this NIH Record article). We also collaborate with the National Library of Medicine on the Bethesda Hospital Emergency Preparedness Partnership (BHEPP), providing radio operation and engineering expertise for an emergency communications research project that makes use of Winlink 2000. See our EmComm Support page for additional details.
NIHRAC has a long standing affiliation with the Montgomery County, Maryland RACES/ARES, and the Maryland Emergency Management Agency (MEMA). The Club is also AMSAT Life Member Society #20 (since about 1970), and Club Sponsor of The Mid-Atlantic Repeater Council (T-MARC). We are also responsible for NIH's affiliation with Army-MARS.
Club activities, including our official monthly meetings, are generally held at the NIHRAC facility located at the NIH Central Utility Plant on the Bethesda campus, Building 11, Room 305 (temporarily, during summer 2015 due to remodeling work). GPS coordinates: 38°59'54.6"N 77°06'11.1"W (see an interactive Google map in our Contact Us page).
To attend our meetings at the NIHRAC VECF:
The campus can also be easily accessed by metro and other public transportation. For more details about accessing the NIH campus in Bethesda, visit the NIH Visitor Information page. There is also a Google map available at our Contact Us page.

Exxon and Rosneft Plan Tight Oil JV
From Rigzone
By Jon Mainwaring
Rosneft and ExxonMobil have moved forward with the agreement to develop tight oil reserves in Western Siberia that they signed in the summer. The two companies announced Friday that they had signed a 'pilot development agreement' that will establish a joint project to assess the possibility of commercial production of tight oil reserves at the Bazhenov and Achimov formations in Western Siberia.
The agreement was signed late Thursday in Irving, Texas by Rosneft Chairman Igor Sechin and ExxonMobil Exploration Company President Stephen Greenlee, while Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson witnessed the signing.
Rosneft and Exxon said that the document is another step in the implementation of a long-term strategic cooperation agreement that the two companies began in August 2011. In June this year, they agreed that they would look at employing technology already used by Exxon in the US and Canada for unconventional oil and gas formations in Western Siberia.
Now, the companies plan to set up a joint venture that will run a pilot program and potential commercial production. Work will be carried out across 23 license blocks owned by Rosneft and which cover a total area of more than 3,800 square miles.
Rosneft will have a 51 percent stake in this JV, while Exxon will hold the remaining 49 percent. Rosneft and its production subsidiaries will provide staff and access to existing infrastructure, while Exxon will providing financing for the JV's pilot program of up to $300 million as well as it technologies and specialists in geology, development and well engineering and completion.
Exxon will also provide production management services for drilling complex horizontal wells in order to evaluate and commercially develop the tight oil reserves.
Upon completion of the pilot program, Rosneft and Exxon said that they will jointly select blocks for commercial development in 2015.
"Maximising production efficiency at every field and exploring new technologies to exploit the potential of tight reservoirs is a strategic priority for Rosneft," Sechin commented in a statement. "I am certain that our experience and infrastructure in Western Siberia, coupled with the state-of-the-art technologies of our partner ExxonMobil, will allow us to begin developing large tight oil reserves."
Tillerson added: "The strategic combination of Rosneft's operational experience in the area and ExxonMobil's advanced technology gains from tight oil experience in North America and elsewhere provides a strong capability to fully evaluate and potentially develop this large tight oil resource."
In a separate agreement Thursday, Rosneft and Exxon also signed a declaration to project the environment in the Russian Arctic.

Here are 2 cymbalta links I'm aware of, first for a rebate, and other for 1 month free. They work if you have private insurance.
Also, here are the best 2 sites I use for finding offers for name brands of nearly all drugs. They usually have copay reduction offers and other offers.
I hope these links work for you. Just keep searching online under brand name as well as go to "medication name".com. The process takes time, but coupons such as these have saved us at least $1000 every year !!

There is a generic form of cymbalta. It's called Duloxetine. I found it when I was looking for coupons for cymbalta. I will try to find the site again and give you the info. They didn't sell the 60m just 20' 30' and 40'm pills. The cost came out to be 96cents a pill. But take a look on the web about the drug and you'll see that it treats everything that cymbalta dose, from depression to fibromyalgia. Dan READ MORE

I was perscribed cymalta but can not afford the copay of $70.00 each month. Coupons should be readily offered for those who need several medications. I have been in a wheelchair for 26 years.

Thanks for asking this question.READ MORE
Organian ~ did you find any help for Cymbalta or did you go on Duloxetine? If so, how is this working for you? As you know, it is now 3/12/12, so it would cost me $160.00 for 30 pills (1/da). I asked my PCP for a replacement and he gave me Olanzapine/Zyprexa. I am having so many side affects after a month of taking this.READ MORE

are there coupons for cymbalta? i do not have insurance and it is very expensive, but it works.
There are literally hundreds of free cards you can use to get drug discounts on basically any drug, including cymbalta, if you don't have insurance or if your particular med is not covered by your insurance. They are usually called drug discount cards. You can find them at newstands, in magazines, in coupon mailers, Sunday papers, etc., but the easy way is to search online for "drug discount cards". I just did this and the list of cards available is endless. I used one of these cards once for a drug not covered by insurance and it reduced the $140 pharmacy cash price to $15. One suggestion: Keep several or more of these cards with you. If one card doesn't help on a particular med, you will have others that likely will. READ MORE

Mrs Carmen Estrada READ MORE
This company will help you even if you have private insurance. You have to qualify financially though. The Dr. has to fill out forms and it is delivered to their office every three months. It only costs $20 a month.
I have also been taking Cymbalta for years. My optimum dosage is 3 per day, which is like $25 without insurance . My insurance only approves one a day, so I can only feel 1/3 as good as I should. After meeting a $6,000 deductible, there is still a $60 copay until I reach $10,000 and then I get the 30 a month at no charge. I have only found the trial 30 offer where your doctor writes a specific RX for a total qty. of 30. You can do the trial 30 free once a year. I also ask the girls in the Dr. office for samples when they have them. I think the sales reps have really tightened up the past couple of years on samples. Maybe we should start a petition for a Cybalta copay discount card. It would certainly be helpful to those of us who are loyal customers to help defray the cost. I have fibromyalgia, herniated discs, two failed back surgeries resulting in lots of scar tissue, and bone spurs on my spine. The SSRI's like Paxil, Prozac, Zoloft etc. have generics but don't touch the pain which can result in depression. It's hard to be cheerful when you are in constant pain. I have been treating myself to 2 a day because my husband has been going through some serious health issues and I need to be able to be the "strong, supportive" spouse. Sorry my news wasn't better, but the Trial 30 is actually around a $275 value. I take advantage of it every year. Just go the website and print out the forn, take it and the new RX to the pharmacy. Like most of the RX savings plans, you don't qualify if you are on a govt. sponsored health plan, Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare, etc. or if you live in Massachusetts. Also, you need to be over 18. Hope this helps.

There is help from many programs. One place that has many options is: http://www.pparx.org/
This is a quote from the above site:
"The Partnership for Prescription Assistance helps qualifying patients without prescription drug coverage get the medicines they need through the program that is right for them. Many will get their medications free or nearly free."
I'm going to try this one myself. My insurance stopped paying for it. My doctor was giving me samples, but the new HMO she is with does not allow them to even carry samples in her office. Really stinks! I may have to try to taper off the Cymbalta, but I've been on it for so many years, that really scares me, the withdrawal & the 'crashing'.
Hope this helps!

Myself as a solar systems installer, was very surprised and interested, for two reasons-
One- we as contractors, pay tens of thousands of dollars just for the materials for one house.
Second- installation takes us, a crew of 4 professionals, between 2 to 5 (8 hours) days.
This company - POWER4HOME - encourage none professionals, none authorized, good americans to experiment with dangerous electrical component, manufacturing them and live installation.
they promised money back guaranty no question asked.
I got the cd from them 2 weeks after payment, and it was basically a big scam.
It is an arts and crafts project for hobby only that won't teach you how to take even one appliance of yours off the grid.
i contacted them several times to refund my money, which was charged in two stages,and asked for instructions for returning the CD.
I contacted them after stage one, that charges $5.39 plus $044 tax ?? (i'm from NY THEY'RE MINNESOTA)
then a second charge came as promised, if you don't contact to cancel before 30 days trial.
all my emails with them were within the 30 days.
they never answered back, and after a wile, my user name and password weren't recognized in their system anymore.
This guys are here to scam and run away with the money.

Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation Treatment – What You Need to Know
Last time as you may or may not know, we discussed 3 Common Causes of Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation.
We talked about how embarrassing and annoying this particular skin condition can be, as well as the confidence/insecurity issues it has to potential to create. However, if you remember, we also mentioned that it is not permanent, and in fact can be treated effectively to the point that it is completely gone (so this is great news!)
Let me remind you though, post inflammatory hyperpigmentation treatment does take time, as well as a decent amount of persistence in order to achieve the results that you want and need.
First, I would like to discuss some of the over the counter/non-natural treatments for post inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and then I will talk to you and share with you some all natural remedies…
Topical Treatments for Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation
A trip to your local pharmacy, or a quick search on the internet will uncover a ton of topical creams and products that claim to eliminate PIH very quickly, nearly overnight, and safely. This simply is not true, and to be honest is very misleading to say the least.
Allow me to talk about two common treatments…
1. Hydroquinone - Many PIH treatment creams contain Hydroquinone as their active "miracle" ingredient. You have possibly heard of this ingredient, and it would not surprise me if a large number of you have actually used this before, it is that common.
Some people swear by it, and some people swear at it, as their skin has been left in a dry-cracked, seemingly permanently damaged conditioned after long term usage (to me it is not worth the risk). As with any chemical based product, you need to be cautious when using Hydroquinone, so consulting with a dermatologist beforehand should be a priority, not optional.
I would like to bring to your attention some of the potential risks associated with regular use of Hydroquinone…
They include, but are not limited to:
- Irritant Contact Dermatitis – which affects 70% of those who use products that contain Hydroquinone regularly.
- Hypopigmentation – permanently lightened patches of skin.
- Pseudo Yellow-Nail Syndrom – which is self explanatory (discoloration of fingernails)
- Corneal Melanosis and Degeneration – this is described as discoloration and deterioration of the eye.
These are just a small number of the risks associated with regular use of this ingredient. If you would like to learn about more of these risks a google search should not leave you short of pages packed with them.
2. Glycolic Acid Peels - While actually semi safe and useful in products that contain 4%-10%, Glycolic acid peels contain 20%-70%. So you can see how much stronger these peels are than a cream that say contains 5% Glycolic acid. This means that if you do this at home, you are practically openly inviting disastrous results.
Glycolic acid in a 20%-70% concentration must be neutralized by a specially formulated neutralizer…
This means that you, once again, must consult a professional and have them perform this in-office Glycolic acid peel. These peels can become very expensive rather fast, when you find out that it normally takes several doctor office visits and procedures before you may or may not begin to achieve the results that you desire.
It is also worth educating your brain with the knowledge that often these peels are accompanied by a rather lengthy and sometimes even painful recovery period.
So, if you have the money to spend, have a dermatologist that you trust and can consult with, maybe this option is for you? Just be sure to do research first so that you can make an educated/informed/comfortable decision. Also, I must announce that Glycolic acid peels are not for all skin types – which you dermatologist should make you aware of.
Natural post inflammatory hyperpigmentation treatments, tips, and recipes…
Of course I had to throw this in here somewhere right?? – You won't give me a hard time for that will you? It's just the way I like to deal with skin conditions, along with millions of others.
It is my goal to educate you and enable you to correct your skin condition as safely as possible, and using all natural techniques will do just that.
First, I want to list for you a few tips, that if you are not actively doing, you should really consider starting to – that is if you plan on making a serious attempt at fixing your PIH condition.
Make sure you are doing these daily:
Here are two natural recipes that will help your skin condition:
– 2 Tablespoons of Old Mountain Sandalwood powder
– Heritage Flower Rose Water
In a bowl put 2 tablespoons of sandalwood powder. Slowly add the rose water and mix until a thin paste is formed. Using your fingers apply the paste to the affected area of your skin and let it sit for 20-30 minutes. Rinse you skin thoroughly and apply moisturizer.
– 2 Tablespoons of baking soda
– 1 Teaspoon of honey
– A few drops of water
Mix all ingredients into a paste. Using your fingers apply to the affected area of skin. Let it soak in for 15-20 minutes. Rinse and moisturize. You can do this daily.
Let me repeat again….Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation treatments require patience and consistency. There are no "quick fixes", and you should be prepared to work towards your desired results for anywhere from 6-24 months, realistically.
Unfortunately, this is a marathon, not a sprint…
That among other reasons is why I always encourage people to try all natural ingredients first, because using chemical based products for long periods of time, to me at least, seems like a bad, expensive, and dangerous idea – to put it mildly.
I hope you found this information on post inflammatory hyperpigmentation treatment helpful, and walk away slightly more informed about it than before, if nothing else.
Have a great day!

If I understand properly:
Normally the login (e.g gnome login) screen is the same resolution as
the desktop.
What is probably wrong here is the default boot resolution.
You might need to modify your /boot/grub/menu.lst and add the vga=
e.g vga=791

"Did you ever see a doctor?"

NHL Games
NHL Finals: New Jersey Devils at Los Angeles Kings
The Kings continued their winning ways and head home for Game 3 with a 2-0 lead, after their overtime win in Game 2. Jonathan Quick made 32 saves for the Kings, and got the winning goal in overtime from Jeff Carter. The Devils looked good, and couldn't really have played much better. They defended and attacked well, but the Kings just keep coming. It is now Los Angeles' series to win or lose, and with home ice advantage for the next two games, and the quality hockey they have been playing, things are definitely in their favor.

HOME>Press Release>Text
Tokyo, May 21, 2010: The JAL Group will maintain the current level of fuel surcharge for all international passenger tickets issued between July and September, 2010.
The price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel during the 3 month period from February 2010 to April 2010 averaged US$88.51 per barrel. With reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for the fiscal year of 2010 (see attached pdf file), this remains corresponding to Zone C where fuel surcharges range from 500 yen on a Japan - Korea ticket to 13,500 yen on a Japan- Brazil ticket per person per sector flown, on tickets purchased in Japan. This level of surcharge will be applied to all international passenger tickets issued between July 1, and September 30, 2010.
The company continues to conduct such countermeasures as introducing more fuel-efficient, small and medium-sized aircraft to its fleet, to minimize the full impact of high fuel prices.
Despite these measures, the company remains reluctantly obliged to ask its international passengers to bear part of the burden caused by the increase in the price of fuel.
Fuel Surcharge for the period: July 01 - September 30, 2010*
*For full details about JAL's fuel surcharge policy, please refer to http://www.jal.co.jp/en/other/info2006_0714.html
- Applicable to all international passenger tickets issued on or after July 01, to September 30, 2010.

Meng, CL; Zhang, CL; Tang, RL (2013). Variational Estimation of Land-Atmosphere Heat Fluxes and Land Surface Parameters Using MODIS Remote Sensing Data. JOURNAL OF HYDROMETEOROLOGY, 14(2), 608-621.
AbstractA variational data assimilation algorithm for assimilating the land surface temperature (LST) into the Common Land Model (CLM) was implemented using the land surface energy balance equation as the adjoint physical constraint. In this data assimilation algorithm, the evaporative fractions of the soil and canopy were adjusted according to the remotely sensed surface temperature observations. This paper developed a very simple analytical algorithm to characterize the errors' weighting matrices in the cost function. The leaf area index (LAI) retrieved from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) was also assimilated into CLM using the direct insertion method. The analysis results from the CLM with the LST assimilation algorithm compare well with MODIS and field observations for the Yucheng site, especially in daytime. On the basis of the histogram of the error of the LST, it can be concluded that after assimilation, the LST was greatly improved in comparison with the MODIS observations, especially in daytime. These results indicate that this surface temperature assimilation method is efficient and effective, even when only one time observational LST data point is available for each day, especially in daytime. The regional spatial patterns of evapotranspiration and soil surface moisture were also compared before assimilation on the basis of LAI data calculated using the empirical formula, before assimilation on the basis of MODIS LAI data, and after assimilation on the basis of MODIS LAI data.

"Hy explained that the first and simplest is the sole proprietorship. Those don't take much to establish: almost nothing, in fact. You start a business by yourself, you fill out a form, mail it in, and poof, you're a sole proprietorship. You're the man. But that wouldn't work here, because we had not one but three proprietors. I had two cofounders at the time.
"Next is the partnership. Partnerships are also simple to establish, and you can have any number of partners greater than one. ...

One simple use model might be
$ mkdir /home/alpha/fb
$ Xvfb :1 -screen 0 1600x1200x32 -fbdir /home/alpha/tmpfbdir
(I'm assuming one logs in with the username 'alpha' here;
substitute as appropriate. Any directory with write
and search permissions can be used.)
One can then do things such as
$ cp /home/alpha/tmpfbdir/Xvfb_screen0 somewhere.xwd
$ xwud -in somewhere.xwd
which will capture, then display, the X stipple.
Or one can do things such as
$ xterm -display :1 &
$ export DISPLAY
$ xterm -e 'program; read dummy'
and then capture the screen, resulting, if one is lucky, in
a window in the X stipple with an xterm prompt. (Since there's
no window manager, the xterm may look a bit peculiar.) Be
warned that the xterm will close if the program terminates;
I've put in a 'read dummy' in the above so that it will wait
for a newline -- which Xvfb can't give it.
Note that Xvfb_screen0 is *open for write* (actually, mmap()ed
for write); it will change if the X server draws things (e.g.,
new client opens a window thereon). This means one can capture
multiple screens by doing multiple copies from the same file.
It also means one might get various rendering artifacts, if the
Xvfb server is drawing while cp is copying.
The '-fbdir' is important, otherwise Xvfb will just allocate some
private memory and play with that; there's no easy way to get
to it.
An alternative, if you're knowledgeable about shared memory segments,
is the -shmem option. This works to some extent as well but requires
familiarity with the shmget() and such calls; the actual key is
printed to standard output and is a bit hard to get at. For those not
so familiar therewith, use -fbdir.
Both generate dumps that are in 'xwd' format.
It looks rather difficult to feed mouse and keyboard events to
Xvfb. Synthesized events might work, for some applications;
however, more intelligent apps will look at the .send_event
field in the event and ignore synthesized events.
(For those not desiring batch output, alternatives such as Xnest or
even just xwd (or Gimp's built-in capture utility) might be

It's still legal to go .sigless.

Abstract: Sequentially observed survival times are of interest in many studies. For example, onemay be interested in time to recurrence and subsequent time to death following initialtreatment for cancer. There are difficulties in analyzing such data using nonparametricor semiparametric methods. First, when the duration of followup is limited and the timesfor a given individual are not independent, induced dependent censoring arises for thesecond and subsequent survival times. Non-identifiability of the marginal survivaldistributions for second and later times is another issue, since they are observable onlyif preceding survival times for an individual are uncensored. In addition, in somestudies a significant proportion of individuals may never have the first event. Fullyparametric models can deal with these features, but robustness is a concern. Weintroduce a new approach to address these issues. We model the joint distribution ofthe successive survival times by using copula functions, and provide semiparametricestimation procedures in which copula parameters are estimated without parametricassumptions on the marginal distributions. This provides more robust estimates andchecks on the fit of parametric models. The methodology is applied to a motivatingexample involving relapse and survival following colon cancer treatment.
Finally, this talk will discuss statistical methods for modeling complex time-to-eventphenotypes in genetic association studies, and current issues in identifying novelgenes involved in cancer recurrence following breast cancer treatment.
