A native of Chicago, violinist Emily Ondracek-Peterson started playing the violin at the age of five, and began giving public concerts soon thereafter. At sixteen, Ms. Ondracek gave her solo debut with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Since that time, she has performed throughout the United States and Europe, and at festivals such as Aspen, Italy's Festival de Due Mondi, and the Cleveland Orchestra's Blossom Summer Music festival, where she was awarded the Joseph Gingold Prize for Most Outstanding Instrumentalist.
Ms. Ondracek frequently gives recitals and has also performed with jazz artists such as Herbie Hancock and Wynton Marsalis. Ms. Ondracek records frequently for film and television, and has recorded for Naxos records.

Heading the violin program at Resurrection Episcopal Day School, Ms. Ondracek also maintains private violin studios in New York City and Greenwich, CT.
Ms. Ondracek received both her Bachelor's and Master's degrees from The Juilliard School, where she studied with Masao Kawasaki with the support of a Morse Scholarship. At Teachers College, Columbia University, where Ms. Ondracek received her doctorate in Music and Music Education, she researched the careers of conservatory-trained musicians. Her doctoral thesis, at 500 pages, is currently being transformed into a monograph on the subject. Ms. Ondracek performs on a violin made in 1815 by Francois Louis Pique.

Juniors and this year's incoming freshmen will be issued laptops that operate on the Chrome operating system.
The district plans to distribute the laptops in the next school year to any seniors that don't have them.

You don't have to be a genius to understand the news will not be good. They are doing an investigation on their drug, which by the way, will take months. Looking at their balance sheet and what effect this this recall will have, puts it at risk. I think long term, they will get their drug back on the market, but the damage is done and providers will think twice about prescribing this medicine. In the meantime, while they wait to get back and FDA approved again, other companies they have similar drugs, will come to light. I see the stock going lower after Thursday and which point I will start my entry.
Better wait, no earnings on thursday
Sentiment: Strong Sell
Boss says no earnings report on thursday. Sorry. Barb.
I notice that a lot of people buy stocks using emotion and the "it went down so it has to go up" attitude. I'm sorry, but I don't make money that why. I read, run the numbers (balance sheet) and lots of research and comparing similar like companies. I'm not saying this company will go away, like some here. What I'm saying is the logic portrayed by a lot of current longs is ridiculous. I can't see anything positive coming out on Thursday that will move this stock significantly higher. These investigations take time, a lot of time. They will come back from this, although no where near its high, and not in the near future. Which is why I will get in lower than the current pps and walk away for 6 to 9 months. Until then, it will be dead money. You don't have to agree with me, that is your right. But name calling? That is just sad and anyone that has to go low like this should not be investing since they can not handle the pressure.
what were the similar companies?
that's because you can't see into the future numbnutz
don't bla bla bla bla to much you don't know better than anyone here......... :-)
Sentiment: Buy
okay you do thar
and then what ... stock largely undervalued don't need any approuval of FDA to go up !!!
Market aren't so logical as you :-)
Sentiment: Strong Buy
You're very confident the news will not be good. There may be little news, but bad news? I doubt it. You need to read about what anaphylaxis is and then ask if this is something that can't be overcome. You'll be buying then. Good luck.
If you're so into bashing the stock, and think they will go under, why get in at all? Before this happened; before this made news, you most likely never heard of the company or stock jackass
Found YOU Moron
You do have the right to not read my posts, it's my opinion. I'm a jackass for taking an educated guess based on the facts that are out there? I've just looked at a few of your past posts and comments and realize that you have anger issues against anyone that is not long. You have every right to be upset for buying at the wrong time, but don't take that out of people that actually give their opinion.
So, you're not in this position right now? real talk please
I'm on the sidelines waiting for AFTER they report.

Nelumbo nucifera is an ornamental species sporadically naturalized from cultivation over the area mapped in the southeastern United States. Although Virginia, Kentucky, and Delaware are within the range, I know of no collections from Virginia or Delaware and of no wild-growing specimens of N . nucifera in Kentucky. The species was listed in a flora of New York (R. S. Mitchell 1986); I have not seen a voucher specimen for the report.
The seeds of Nelumbo nucifera have been shown to remain viable for several hundred years under certain conditions (D. A. Priestley and M. A. Posthumus 1982).

Very little black dress? Check. Friends to laugh with? Check. Toned arms, tanned legs? Check and check. Fiancé by her side? Not so fast ...
At the Spike TV Guy's Choice Awards on June 8, Jennifer Aniston may have been flying solo without spouse-to-be Justin Theroux, but that didn't mean marriage was off her mind.
Taking the mic to playfully jab honoree Jimmy Kimmel, with her supersize diamond ring from Theroux on full display, Aniston cheekily acknowledged the obsession with her marital status.
"Like me, you got engaged this year," she addressed Kimmel in front of the crowd. "Unlike [with] me, nobody cares."
In the 10 months since their August 2012 engagement, all eyes have been on Aniston, 44, with fans wondering just when she will become Mrs. Theroux.
But multiple sources in contact with Aniston and her inner circle (who spoke anonymously to protect their relationships with the actress) say that plans for the much-anticipated wedding, under way earlier this year, appear to have stalled.

If you have already retired or if you can count the number of years until retirement on your fingers, then please heed this friendly warning: unless you're already making the most of your current retirement planning strategies, it may be difficult to lay the groundwork for a financially secure future.
Is your portfolio on a course that's destined to lead to a retirement income shortfall? Consider these strategies that can help improve your long-term outlook.
During Your Working Years
Determine an appropriate time frame for applying for Social Security benefits. If you plan to apply before your so-called "full retirement age," then you can expect to receive lower monthly benefits. Delaying your application could increase your benefits. Detailed information about your specific situation is available online from the Social Security Estimator. Contact Social Security at least three months before retirement to apply for benefits.
When You Reach Retirement
Make arrangements for your retirement account distribution strategies. If you participate in a workplace retirement plan, contact your employer's human resources office to learn what withdrawal options are available to you. Once you have that information handy, you'll need to decide whether to begin withdrawing money from your taxable accounts first or from tax-deferred accounts first.
Keep in mind that the IRS requires most retirement savers to begin taking withdrawals known as required minimum distributions ("RMDs") from employer-sponsored retirement accounts and traditional IRAs after reaching age 70½. If you don't take your RMDs, you could be forced to pay substantial tax penalties. RMD rules recently became less complex, but it's still important that you understand them and implement an appropriate distribution strategy.
All Retirement Investors
Review your postretirement medical insurance needs. For example, you might want to think about purchasing coverage to supplement Medicare benefits.
Your retirement security is very important. A smart first step to keeping your retirement strategies on track is to contact a qualified financial professional.
The opinions voiced in this material are for general information only and are not intended to provide specific advice or recommendations for any individual. To determine which investment(s) may be appropriate for you, consult your financial advisor prior to investing.
This information is not intended to be a substitute for specific individualized tax advice.
No strategy assures success or protects against loss.

|Women, Men
Designed by Kristin Omdahl exclusively for Bijou Basin Ranch.
Inspired by the Gladiolus, whose rich
history spans from Africa through the
Mediterranean. The latin word means
sword and symbolizes strength and moral
integrity. The flower represents infatuation
and suggests that when received will
pierce the giver's heart with passion. I
suggest this as a cure to the "Curse of the
Boyfriend Sweater" since the hugs and
kisses (XOXO) branded into the crown
of the hat, would be detected by a knitter,
but could possibly go undetected by an
unassuming love interest. By branding the
wristlets with the same hugs and kisses
(XOXO) perhaps it can unite you together
with love.

I am new user of Maple. I have an expression like f(x,y)/g(x,y) and I want to have Maple name f(x,y) as something simple like "h" so that later equations write h/g(x,y) instead of the complete f(x,y)/g(x,y), and also to be able to simplify other equations in terms of h.
For example, a=(x+1)(y-5)^2/(x+y-3). Can I get Maple to let h=(x+1)(y-5)^2, so that I get h/(x+y-3) when I ask for a?
Sorry if this question is basic (and my math terminology incorrect), but I have been trying for a while.

Kings 117 – Wizards 111 (ot)
March 18, 2014
Sleep Train Arena, Sacramento, CA
NBA.com highlights
This defining moment >>>
Kings DeMarcus Cousins said something spicy with a smile to seated Wizards Marcin Gortat. A furious Gortat jumped up to bark back off floor.
— Marc J. Spears (@SpearsNBAYahoo) March 19, 2014
A frustrating finish to the night was capped off by Demarcus Cousins giving Marcin some lip and a bombardment of Marcin expletives thrown right back. It was just that kind of ending to a weird, #So, #SOOOOWizards spectacle in Sacramento and quite honestly, the next game couldn't happen sooner. That, or we need a serious case of Bradley Beal's amnesia.
It's hard to generate the proper words to describe last night only because so many apply. I guess "inexplicable", "appalling", and "are f*cking kidding me!?" would be a start.
The Wizards opened the game jet lagged and sluggish, tanking on their first few possessions and missed nine of their first 10 shots. They were outscored 30-19 in the first, pulled within one by halftime, went back in forth in the 3rd, led by as many as 11 in the 4th, were tied up at the end of regulation, and eventually gassed out in overtime. In between all that was the muddled excreta that created that chronology of events.
It also comes as no surprise that the turning point of a game this unnerving would be two missed free throws by John Wall that would have essentially clinched the game for the Wizards in the winding seconds of regulation. Instead, it remained a two-point game and of course Rudy Gay, who shot daggers all night, hits one more to tie the game with five seconds remaining.
The play coming out of the ensuing time out could be deemed questionable and it surely was by the contingents of #WizardsTwitter. Bradley Beal took the inbound, went around a hard Gortat screen, got an open look from about 23 feet, and missed. Most will criticize the playcall because of how much Beal struggled shooting all night, but hey..
Play of the night

Strategic Planning and Budgeting
University Reaccreditation 2007
MSU Moorhead
Letter from President Edna
Dear Students,
First, I would like to thank you for working hard to save the University and the community from the Red River. Your hard work and generosity of time and spirit were inspirational to me and to the community. I continue to receive letters and emails from people who are thankful for the role you played in saving their homes.
My own home was saved by groups of volunteers including students from MSUM, Concordia, and Moorhead High. My husband and I celebrated our 36th anniversary this week and gave thanks for the privilege of living here and being part of the inspirational MSUM university community.
I know that this is a time of uncertainty for all of us. Since last week, I have been meeting each day with members of my Cabinet as well as the Emergency Management Team to decide when to bring classes back into session. Our decisions continue to be influenced by a variety of factors. Of course, safety is the first consideration; this includes not only safety of being on campus but also safety of travel and of egress. Additional considerations have been the capacity of the city infrastructure (sewer, water, and power) to handle additional residents as well as the policies and procedures of the Minnesota State Colleges and University System related to university closure and class cancellations.
Our current plan is to resume classes on Monday, April 6 and to open the residence halls on Sunday, April 5th at noon. However, that could change depending on weather forecasts for the week. Please keep watching our website. I am reasonably confident that, by Friday, the situation will be clear enough for us to either continue towards opening on Monday or notify you of a change in plans. We will use e2campus and our website as our primary means of communication.
I know that any changes to the calendar will pose difficulties to different groups of faculty and students. At this time, I ask for your patience as we sort out ways to complete the semester and enable students to proceed with their academic progress or preparation for employment. I will work with faculty, students, and staff towards solutions that preserve the integrity of the academic curriculum while respecting the needs and values of various stakeholders.
At this time, I know that many of you are wondering about grades, assignments, and graduation. Right now, we are very hopeful that we will return on Monday and continue the semester with the changed calendar. Even if we have additional closures due to another river event, there are ways that we can complete the semester. I am consulting regularly with my Cabinet, the Chancellor's Office, and the Faculty Association regarding those contingencies. In addition, in keeping with our long history of consultation with students, I am working with Vice President Wiese to make contact with those student senators we can reach for their input.
Finally, I know that some of you lost your apartments to the flood. We have a limited number of spaces in our residence halls that can be made available starting Sunday afternoon to registered MSUM students. If you have such a need, please contact the Housing Office during regular business hours.
I thank you for your patience during this challenging time. VP Wiese and I will try to send an update to you later this week. In the interim, we all miss you here.
Best wishes,

She knows how much I love her farmhouse...with its white clapboard siding and the cutest porch I have ever seen. I have told her to beware, because I am a girl that is known for a spur-of-the moment roadtrip...
Can you blame me?...have you ever seen a cuter porch or swing in all your life??
(above photos courtsey of Fiona & Twig)
Isn't it amazing and crazy all at the same time how blogging has brought people together that would normally never have met in their 'real' life?? I think about that a lot. How there are a so many of you I think about throught my day. It is incredible, really that I could find so many friends without ever actaully meeting in person. People that, due to geography, I never in a million years would have crossed paths with had I not hit that "post" button for the very first time.
Today Anne made my day. She truly did. She took my little blog and shared it with her world. Now, if only I was as fabulous as her wonderful post made me sound!
From the bottom of my heart I am sending Anne a big hug and a huge thank you for making me her "blog of the month" over at Fiona & Twig.
I am off to photograph some amazing finds for the shop! This seems to be the week of old metal signs, lots of old paper with a little ironstone and wood thrown into the mix! I was junking my way through rural Wisconsin recently, so have some goodies to share! Be sure to stop by tonight and see whats new!
The countdown is on....less than 2 days before I am Minnesota bound for another roadtrip!

Context Pneumococcal conjugate vaccine for infants has recently been found effective
against meningitis, bacteremia, pneumonia, and otitis media.
Objective To evaluate the projected health and economic impact of pneumococcal
conjugate vaccination of healthy US infants and young children.
Design Cost-effectiveness analysis based on data from the Northern California
Kaiser Permanente randomized trial and other published and unpublished sources.
Setting and Patients A hypothetical US birth cohort of 3.8 million infants.
Interventions Hypothetical comparisons of routine vaccination of healthy infants,
requiring 4 doses of pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (at 2, 4, 6, and 12-15
months), and catch-up vaccination of children aged 2 to 4.9 years requiring
1 dose, with children receiving no intervention.
Main Outcome Measures Cost per life-year saved and cost per episode of meningitis, bacteremia,
pneumonia, and otitis media prevented.
Results Vaccination of healthy infants would prevent more than 12,000 cases
of meningitis and bacteremia, 53,000 cases of pneumonia, 1 million episodes
of otitis media, and 116 deaths due to pneumococcal infection. Before accounting
for vaccine costs, the vaccination program would save $342 million in medical
and $415 million in work-loss and other costs from averted pneumococcal disease.
Vaccination of healthy infants would result in net savings for society if
the vaccine cost less than $46 per dose, and net savings for the health care
payer if the vaccine cost less than $18 per dose. At the manufacturer's list
price of $58 per dose, infant vaccination would cost society $80,000 per life-year
saved or $160 per otitis media episode prevented (other estimated costs would
be $3200 per pneumonia case prevented, $15,000 for bacteremia, and $280,000
for meningitis). The cost-effectiveness of an additional program to administer
1 dose of vaccine to children aged 2 to 4.9 years would vary depending on
the children's ages, relative risks of pneumococcal disease, and vaccine cost.
Conclusions Pneumococcal conjugate vaccination of healthy US infants has the potential
to be cost-effective. To achieve cost savings, its cost would need to be lower
than the manufacturer's list price. In addition to tangible costs, the vaccine
should be appraised based on the less tangible value of preventing mortality
and morbidity from pneumococcal disease.

Updates on India
31 Dec 2005
Several forums and workshops were held by the Indian Campaign on the ICC (ICC-India) throughout 2004. Most notable were a lawyers workshop on the ICC (July 3, Mumbai) organized in collaboration with the India Centre for Human Rights and Law, and the workshop on Women's Rights and International Justice Mechanisms (November 5-6, Assam).
As of September 2005, the government was not likely to accede to the Rome Statute in the immediate future.
According to a joint statement from the latest Indo-U.S. defence talks in Washington in May 2002, India agreed with the US position that the ICC could have a negative impact on peacekeeping and coalition operations. India and US reportedly discussed what they consider to be the serious inadequacies of the ICC and underlined the importance of cooperation between the US and India to oppose its applicability to non-parties, as in their view such applicability would be an assertion of jurisdiction beyond the limits of international law.
An international conference of parliamentarians, planned for New Delhi in spring 2002, was cancelled due to a lack of government support.
In 2000, the Indian Campaign on the ICC (ICC-India) was formed. It has since been active in information dissemination and research and publications work on the ICC.
National and international NGOs have been involved in informal consultations with a wide range of civil society actors in raising awareness and considering options for accession.
India actively participated in the Preparatory Commission meetings. Concerns expressed include keeping the Security Council control over the ICC to a minimum, and the definition and elements of the crime of aggression.

Granted, there is some foolishness to considering an NFL team's playoff chances in October. Back in the day, a good rule of thumb was to avoid such talk until stores began stocking Christmas decorations.
But I was in Costco this week and had to tell my wife that we didn't need a fifth nativity scene.
So if Costco can break thumb rules, I can, too.
After New Orleans (5-0) and Seattle (4-1), the NFC is muddier than a desert wash after a monsoon storm.
They are the only two teams with more victories than the Cardinals (3-2). Three other teams, including the 49ers, the Cardinals' opponent this week, are 3-2. Ten other teams are worse.
Are the Cardinals going to be a playoff team, as coach Bruce Arians has predicted? The odds seem to be against it, given the offense's glacial way of moving the ball.
But stranger things have happened (see: Cardinals, 2008), and any NFC team that can hover around .500 for most of the season has a chance.
It's a stretch to think the Cardinals are going to win the NFC West, although the Seahawks are banged up on the offensive line, and the 49ers have looked vulnerable for the first time since 2010.
It's unusual but not unprecedented for one division to supply three playoff teams. In 2011, Baltimore, Cincinnati and Pittsburgh from the AFC North did it. In 2007, three teams from the NFC East and AFC South made it.
So, yes, we're staying there's a chance.
Let's take a look at the other three NFC divisions and the teams that should concern Cardinals fans.
East: Ugh. The only division in the NFL without a winning team. The Eagles (2-3) and Cowboys are tied for first. The Redskins (1-3) and Giants (0-5 entering Thursday night's game at Chicago) are off to horrible starts.
For the Cardinals, it's preferable for the Cowboys to win the East. The Cardinals play in Philadelphia on Dec. 1. That will be a big game if both teams are in contention because head-to-head meetings are the first tiebreaker for wild-card teams. The NFC East is also matched up against the NFC North this year, which means playing the Lions, Bears and Packers.
It will be difficult for more than one NFC East team to reach 10 victories.
North: This is the division that should worry Cardinals fans the most. That's because just one NFC North team is on the Cardinals schedule, Detroit. The Cardinals beat the Lions in Week 2, so they would have the tiebreaker when it comes to the wild card.
The key for the Cardinals is to win conference games. Conference record is the second tiebreaker for wild-card teams.
The Cardinals are 3-2 in conference play with seven remaining. The Bears are 1-2 and the Packers are 2-1.
South: The Saints already have a big lead over the Panthers (1-3), Falcons (1-4) and Buccaneers (0-4).
I think we can all stipulate that the Bucs are out of it. And the Cardinals helped themselves by beating the Panthers last week. They have a chance to take care of the Falcons on Oct. 27 in Glendale.
But as the coaching axiom goes, a team should worry about what it's doing, not what others are doing.
What do the Cardinals need to do?
They need to win at least one of the next three games: at San Francisco, then home against Seattle and Atlanta.
That would put them at 4-4 entering their off week, and they would need to go at least 5-3 over the second half.
It would help if at least three of those second-half victories came against NFC foes, which include the Eagles, Rams, Seahawks and 49ers.
Sure, it's early, and the Cardinals haven't looked like a playoff team this year, at least on offense. They could be well out of it when the time comes to hang Christmas lights.
But with nearly a third of the season gone, they are in the mix and the Giants aren't. Who saw that coming?

Wednesday, July 31, 2013
The "Automotive Lean Production 2012" in the Excellent Value Chain category has been assigned to the Fiat Plant in Bielsko Biala, after the analysis and evaluation process from a panel of experts selected by the German magazine "Automobil Produktion" and from the consulting firm "Agamus Consult".
More than 1 100 workers at the Fiat Plant in Bielsko Biala (Poland) produce the engines for different Fiat-Chrysler models, and for different OEM.
The production system, which reached the Gold Award level in the World Class Manufacturing, gave evidence to the jury of the achieved results in terms of high efficiency in all manufacturing processes.
From 2007 the Plant has realized more than 30 000 projects within a continuous improvement process that led to excellent results, as the 2 090 days without accidents, or the systematic reduction of the unit production costs and the contextual upgrade of all the qualitative indicators on products.
The involvement of all human resources is the key of the success of the plant. Workers have an active role in the amelioration process (last year each employee contributed with an average of 32 proposals) and the drivers of plants and machinery have a firsthand participation to basic maintenance activities.
The awards ceremony will take place in Wolfsburg (Germany) on October 23, during the 8th congress organized by "Automobil Produktion" and Agamus Consult.

Granger Fire Department hosting events
Two upcoming community events were among the topics Fire Chief Jim Paulett brought to the table at the Granger Township Board of Trustees meeting March 25.
Paulett said an Easter party is scheduled for March 30 at 1 p.m. at the Fire Department, 3737 Ridge Road. Among the attractions at the party will be a helicopter landing, an opportunity for children to see the Easter Bunny and a chance for residents to walk through the fire station, he explained.
Paulett also discussed a pancake breakfast the fire department will hold April 7 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. He said the pancakes will be cooked by the firefighters in the department. The breakfast will cost $5 for children and seniors and $7 for adults, he said.
In other Fire Department news, Paulett announced the training class scheduled for today, March 28, will be led by Dr. James Kendel Jr. from Medina Family Chiropractic. He explained back injuries are common for firefighters and EMS personnel and said he hopes to minimize injuries to members of his department through the proper lifting techniques and exercises that will be taught at this class.
Paulett announced five members of the department — Lt. Bob Smith, Lt. Ted Foley, Carol Redford, Brandon Quinn and John Rocco — are enrolled in Fire Officer 1 training at Cuyahoga Community College. He reported all five are doing well in their training. Paulett also announced that two students in fire instructor class will finish the class this week.
Paulett reminded the trustees the department will send out letters to residents with long driveways during the first part of April. He had previously explained firefighters need to be prepared to use a longer hose for fires at residences with driveways longer than 900 feet, and he planned to send out letters requesting permission from residents to have their driveways marked and for their property to be inspected by the Fire Department.
In other business:
- Service Director Mark Novak discussed plans to berm township roads as weather permits. He and the trustees will meet April 1 at 3 p.m. to survey roads for the berming.
Novak addressed a culvert on Melody Lane he plans to have replaced this spring and ditches on Remsen and Beach roads he plans to have straightened.
Novak also announced he and Paulett hosed out a culvert on Stony Hill Road.
- Fiscal Officer Barbara Beach discussed a letter she received from the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) about an upcoming open house at ODOT's District 3 headquarters in Ashland.
Beach also said rain gauges installed at the township's service garage are being used as readings for storm management as part of the State of Ohio Rain/Snow Monitoring System. She said trustees signed a memorandum with the Ohio Department of Public Safety and the Ohio Emergency Management Agency to continue the service.
- Zoning Inspector Annie George discussed a variance request by a local resident for a detached garage less than 15 feet from the front of his State Road house. She said the request will be heard at a zoning meeting April 30.
- Trustee John Ginley addressed a request from resident Gary Wright, who wants to have covers put over the bleachers at the baseball field at Granger Township Park and also requested a new in-field mix. Trustees approved a motion to spend up to $500 on 6 yards of in-field mix.
The next Granger trustees' meeting is scheduled for April 8 at 7 p.m. at the Granger Township Administration Building, 3717 Ridge Road.

RANGOON — While many have praised Burma for a broadening of media freedoms over the last couple of years, pro-democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi has cautioned that "absolute press freedom" in the country remains elusive.
The chairwoman of the National League for Democracy (NLD), Burma's main opposition party, made the remarks while addressing about 300 local and international journalists at the launch of her new charity organization, the Suu Foundation, in Rangoon on Sunday.
The Suu Foundation was founded with the help of international health and education advocates, and Burmese intellectuals. It will serve as a humanitarian organization dedicated to advancing health care and education initiatives for young people in Burma.
Suu Kyi, who is also a member of Parliament, on Sunday criticized the Burmese government led by President Thein Sein, a former general of the ex-military regime, for failing to fully unshackle the country's long-suppressed media. At the same time, Suu Kyi warned the country's young reporters that their lack of experience left them susceptible to practicing journalism that did not meet professional and ethical standards.
"Many people talk about the amazing change in Myanmar. I would like to say this frankly: Greater freedom demands greater responsibility. Without press freedom, we cannot build a healthy democracy. If people ask me whether we have absolute press freedom, I will say no," Suu Kyi said one day before an international media conference in Rangoon organized by the US-based East-West Center.
Under the country's former military regime, Burmese media was stifled. Heavy censorship was enforced on publications, private daily newspapers were outlawed and reporters were often jailed for their work. Given the climate of fear instilled by the generals in power, self-censorship among journalists was as much a constraint to press freedom as any overt government oppression, and critical reporting of the government almost never made it to print.
While there is widespread agreement that Burma has come a long way since the darkest days of media suppression, recent government actions—including the arrest of a handful of reporters this year and a curbing of journalism visa issuances last month—has brought condemnation from press freedom and human rights advocates.
On Monday at the opening of the East-West Center media conference, presidential spokesman Ye Htut pushed back against speculation that the visa restrictions were implemented due to reports by some news outlets about an alleged massacre of dozens of Rohingya Muslims in western Arakan State in mid-January. The government has denied any killings took place.
"Reporters who belong to news bureaus here can still enjoy three-month, multi-entry visas," Ye Htut said, claiming that the issuance of shorter-term visas for foreign journalists not based in country resulted from a reassessment following the World Economic Forum and the Southeast Asian Games, both of which were hosted by Burma last year. More than 100 foreign reporters who entered Burma for the two events overstayed their visas, prompting the new policy, Ye Htut said.
The presidential spokesman, who also acts as deputy information minister, said one foreign journalist's visa request to attend the East-West Center conference this week was rejected outright. That denial was issued to Hannah Beech, a reporter for US-based Time magazine and the author of an article printed in the publication last year that was banned by Burma's government.
"Some people are very angry about her," Ye Htut said of the journalist, who penned an article about the controversial Burmese monk U Wirathu headlined "The Face of Buddhist Terror" for the magazine's July 1, 2013 issue. "That will affect not only her but also this international media conference. We sent a letter to her that now is not an appropriate time [for her to visit]."
Meanwhile, the Suu Foundation's immediate goal will be the restoration of Rangoon University and Rangoon General Hospital, which the organization hopes will one day serve as symbols of Burma's progress in advancing its education and health care sectors—two areas neglected for decades under the former military junta.
Dr. Miemie Winn Byrd, chairwoman of the Suu Foundation, said at the conference that the foundation believed a healthy and educated population was key to fostering self-reliance and improving the livelihoods of the people of Burma.
"We believe that all of us can contribute to making a difference in the lives of the Myanmar people by improving their health and education. Our dream is that every Myanmar child may have access to proper health care and qualified education," said the Honolulu-based Burmese academic.
Malaysian actress Michelle Yeoh also spoke at the Suu Foundation launch, pointing out that the Burmese higher education system was highly regarded 50 years ago, with many students from Southeast Asia and beyond seeking to study at Rangoon University.
However, mismanagement under successive military governments from 1962 to 2010 saw a major decline in the Burmese education system, which continued nonetheless to graduate students with degrees of depreciating value into an economy with fewer and fewer opportunities to earn a living.
"To be a part of rebuilding the nation, it is always in my heart," said Yeoh, who was cast to play Suu Kyi in "The Lady," a 2011 biopic of the democracy leader directed by Luc Besson.
During the Suu Foundation's official launch event, video greetings from former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former First Lady Laura Bush were also screened, with the two women expressing their support for the effort.
The Irrawaddy reporter Yen Snaing contributed reporting.
Whenever she climbs she is followed by a dog called 'Ego'.
Absolute Press Freedom? There is no such freedom in the world. There is no absolute truth nor absolute freedom.
Suu Kyi is one of the great person of the world. Once she become President of Burma ( Myanmar ) the country can progress, otherwise no way , due to selfishness of the right wing peoples in Burma.
I hope military will cooperate with he for sake of the country development. If they are reluctant where will be the future of Burma.
New generation in the military should understand that she is getting old day by day and she should be given a chance to develop the country and the generations.
I want to send this appeal to all that all of us united for the back side of Suu Kyi for the betterment of country's future to support her to become President of Myanmar New Nation.
People said that after 1962 our education system is collapsed. I agree that there is a degradation of the system. However, I passed 10th standard in 1971 and graduated in 1977. I worked in Singapore as competent as Singaporeans. I don't think it was so bad at our time. Our teachers are great. I admit that it was different from today.
Also I wish to express my feelings that even though Daw Aung San Su Kyi is a great lady, I cannot agree that "Without her as being the President, our country will not prosper". We have a lot of highly qualified people who can take the place. Working hard and working together by the whole country only can make prosper. We have to look ourselves first whether we are up to the guage.

TACOMA -- The century-old pagoda building at Tacoma's Point Defiance Park reopens Saturday after a $7 million renovation to repair damage from a 2011 arson.
Metro Parks also upgraded the building with heated flooring, meeting rooms and a restored plaza outside the pagoda.
Built in 1914 in the park's Japanese garden in the style of a 17th century Japanese lodge, it was operated originally as a trolley station.
The pagoda has been a favored site for parties, memorial services and weddings.
A 16-year-old boy pleaded guilty to setting the fire nearly two years ago that damaged the structure and roof.

Happy anniversary, indeed!
LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian were married one year ago on Sunday – and the country singer has a brand new ring to show for it.
"I have a very thoughtful husband with GREAT taste!!!!" Rimes, 29, Tweeted on Sunday with a picture of her new jewelry.
The ring must be icing on the cake for Rimes, who still seems to be enjoying her honeymoon phase with Cibrian, 38. The couple were spotted at a romantic lunch at Toscanova in Calabasas, Calif., on Friday.
"All throughout their meal, they'd steal kisses or hold hands," an onlooker told PEOPLE of the PDA-filled date. "They looked incredibly happy together. He had his arm around her shoulder and she would rest her head on the nook of his neck with her eyes closed."
On Sunday, she also Tweeted, "Thank you all for the beautiful anniversary wishes! Woooo hoooo it's been a year. Here's to many, many more!!!"

Still, three episodes after Joffrey's death, our characters are starting to figure out their way forward in Tommen's Westeros. In the somber, subdued "First of His Name," we see what the fifth stage of grief looks like in Westerns; if there's one mode that pervades throughout Sunday's episode, it's a resigned, weary acceptance.
This isn't to say that the seven kingdoms have been transformed into a caring, sharing society. It remains a (literally) cutthroat world full of violence and deprivation, thanks in part to characters who aren't quite so far along.
Major spoilers below. Read at your own risk!
Helen Sloan / HBO
DenialNo one in the seven kingdoms is quite adept at fooling themselves as Lysa Arryn, Sansa's aunt, last seen re-enacting this famous TIME cover. In her reappearance, we learn she's spent decades pining for her Petyr, all while coming close to realizing – but never quite processing – that he's been using her. She even went so far as to poison her own husband at Littlefinger's bidding, which as you may recall, was the event that kicked this whole series off in the first place. If only she'd had a Miranda around, all of this trouble could have been avoided. At least she got a ring out of the deal.
Helen Sloan / HBO
AngerArya subscribes to the Rotten Theory of emotions: Anger is an energy. Before she lays her head to sleep, the lost Stark repeats the names of all the people she's sworn to kill, which happens to end with her current traveling companion: The Hound. As the angriest man in Westeros, he sees this as an opportunity, interrupting Arya's "dancing" practice to taunt her about Syrio Forel's death, until she tries to run him through with Needle. It doesn't work, of course, and he accompanies this metaphorical slap in the face with a literal one. The Hound then gives her a lesson of his own: All the practice in the world can't beat "armor, and a big f—ing sword." If she wants to kill him, she's going to have to do it his way.
Helen Sloan / HBO
BargainingWhat would you do if your only daughter was in the hands of a family who hated your family's guts? If you're Cersei, that means swallowing your pride and admitting to King's Landing's incorrigible poet-in-resident Oberyn Martell that you worry about her. She gives him a ship to take back to Myrcella,and it seems to cool the tensions that arose between them at Joffrey's wedding. "We don't hurt little girls in Dorne," he says. She begs to differ: "Everywhere in the world, they hurt little girls."
DepressionNo Dragonstone or the Dreadfort this week, which means there's comparatively little depression on offer.
AcceptanceThe rest of the story lines see our characters coming to terms with the consequences of their actions, and choosing to move forward. Sometimes it's a small thing, as when Brienne warms to Podrick after learning the lengths he'd gone to protect Tyrion. Elsewhere, it's a split-second decision, like Bran's realization that fulfilling his purpose in life means giving up on his long-awaited reunion with Jon.
Helen Sloan / HBO
With Cersei, it's a slower process. When she catches Margaery Tyrell making eyes at Tommen during the young boy's coronation, the Red Keep seems primed for another wine-fueled blow-up. But instead, she takes Marge aside for a shockingly clear-eyed discussion of Joffrey's flaws and Tommen's future. The cherubic pre-teen may grow up to be the first good king Westeros has had in decades, she says, and he deserves a queen who will do right by him. Better the flower you know than the devil you don't.
Helen Sloan / HBO
But this week's clearest message of moving forward comes from a slew of characters who have suffered the most of anyone else in the series. Craster's wives have spent three season lurking in the background, only emerging from the scenery when a man needed something to beat, rape or murder. Now, though, after Jon leads the Night's Watch on a successful mission to kill the mutineers, they step into the foreground for the first time. As they burn down Craster's Keep for good, the women refuse Jon's offer of sanctuary at the Wall, telling him, "We'll go our own way."
Knowing this show, it won't be happy, but at least it's theirs.

Effective Delegation – Highly Effective People Innovate
August 9, 2011 | Author: PM Hut | Filed under: Delegation
Effective Delegation – Highly Effective People Innovate
By Michael Duncan Moore
One of the true hallmarks of high performance business units is the culture of innovation. For managers and leaders to achieve high levels of effective delegation and leadership, everyone must innovate. Innovation drives business growth. Innovation beats out the competition and gets to a better result. Managers must manage innovation. So, how what does innovation add and how do you manage to it?
In a recent article in the July/August edition of Discover magazine, there was a reference to a phenomenal scientific breakthrough. It just so happened that during a "routine experiment" that dealt with the ongoing research into the zero gravity of outer space, NASA scientists "levitated a mouse using superconducting magnets!" I don't know about you, but that is the thing of science fiction. The point is, the scientists were continuing to research ideas and out of that came a really fantastic result. In a business organization, where a culture of innovation exists, the mere fact of continual research, thought and this creativity can yield a spectacular break-through.
People love to be innovative. Business units build terrific teams that are challenged to innovate. The success and competitive position of companies is tied to innovation, big or small. The company who consistently and doggedly innovates, will earn its top spot and come into competitive power, faster than any other process. When challenges face the company, where obstacles to progress occur, a business unit steeped in innovation as a regular core competency will rise to the occasion. So, what are the few key things managers can do to foster the "innovation culture?'
- Speak innovation. In every meeting, contained in every newsletter, in every casual business conversation and in performance reviews, talk about the need for innovation. Make "innovation" a watch word for the business.
Challenge people to innovate. Get your team energized around finding new and better products, services, processes, etc… by being really innovative. When you delegate an assignment or start a project, build the innovation challenge into the activities. Create contests or competitions around innovating a new idea.
Reward innovation. If you want focus and attention on the importance of consistent innovation, then recognize and reward creative ideas of any kind. Let people know how much their innovation can help the organization. Recognition is important. Rewards are even stronger. During performance reviews, point out where the employee contributed innovation.
The truly innovative business is a competitive business. Innovation creates excitement. Managers need to help their team to expand their efforts and their abilities to match up with the innovative imagination of the your business unit. Find your top innovators and ask them to mentor new employees around the culture of innovation. For the successful business, innovation can levitate the capacity of the team to succeed.
Plan-Delegate-Manage is an organization that strives to bring real world experience, proven skills training and valuable delegation tools to managers around the world. As a veteran executive in the Insurance & Banking Industries, Mike brings over 40 years of proven experience in building teams and developing successful managers.

A weak tropical system in the southern Gulf of Mexico is running out of time to develop before it moves inland into southern Texas on Sunday or early Monday. Wind shear levels are high, so the chance of development is low.
This is a tricky system to follow because its heaviest rains are well to its east and northeast, and it's expected to bring heavy rain and thunderstorms across Louisiana and the upper Texas coast.
Does that include Houston?
Forecast models have been indicating for the last 12 to 24 hours that the best chance of rain is along the coast, and to the east of the city of Houston. At this point it appears that rain will drop off significantly for areas north of Interstate 10, a situation which National Weather Service forecasters describe as, "It will certainly be a case of the haves and have nots of rainfall."
Here's the latest rainfall accumulation outlook for the potential rain event, which should occur on Sunday and Monday.
A chance of rain should linger for the rest of the week, but it appears as though high pressure could build back over the region by next weekend, bringing warmer temperatures in the mid- and possibly upper-90s back to Houston.

By Adam Armour/The Itawamba County Times
There's an old, likely familiar adage that could save readers a lot of money and even more heartbreak:
"If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is," said Lt. Brad Rogers of the Fulton Police Department.
Rogers said there are several different scams currently making the rounds in the Itawamba County area, trying to sucker people out of their hard-earned money.
According to Rogers, most of these are being conducted via phone calls generating from either overseas locations like Nigeria or Jamaica, or via Internet calling services.
Essentially, the callers are offering people deals that are too good to be true.
"They're calling and they're offering big dividends for low payout," Rogers said.
According to Rogers, the scammers call and claim to be representatives of casinos or other lottery organizations. They claim the recipients of the call are winners and ask them to mail a money order or cashiers check for some relatively small amount of money to an address inside the continental U.S. These funds will then be transferred overseas.
"They'll call and say, 'Hey, you've won and if you send us $500, you win $50 million."
Rogers said these groups will also send out large checks via commercial carriers like UPS or Fed Ex, never through the U.S. Postal Service, asking people to cash them and then send them a portion of the money while keeping the rest.
While most banks have the resources to bust these bogus checks, most private cash checking companies don't have the same capabilities.
"They're taking them to stores and attempting to pass them; they're taking them to check cashing businesses; they're taking them to banks," Rogers said. "But banks are networked in where they can check the routing number and that check number and it will red flag that check. Mom and pop stores don't have that capability."
When that check turns out to bogus, guess who's held responsible. Here's a clue: It's not the scammers.
"You're left holding the bill for whatever you've done," Rogers said. "When you cash that check, you are criminally and civilly liable for any damages."
Another popular money scam involves using online auction or classified sites like Ebay and Craigslist. Usually, the scammers offer to purchase some item the victim has for sale for more than the listed price.
"Everything is gravitating toward online scamming through chat messages, social networking sites like Facebook and online auction sites," he said.
Rogers described a typical example of these types of scams:
"Say you have a $20,000 item listed. They'll agree to send you a check for $50,000 for that item, tell you to cash the check and send them $10,000 and keep the rest for your item, plus shipping.
"They're trying to throw a sales pitch on everybody and see who catches," he said. "They're not looking for big scores; they're looking for monetary amounts ranging from a couple of hundreds to a couple of thousands."
Rogers said these types of scams are becoming more and more commonplace in the Itawamba County area. He said the department receives multiple calls about these types of scams every week.
"It's becoming a bi-weekly occurrence that we, as law enforcement, are dealing with some kind of fraud," Rogers said. "People in our area are falling for it every day and people report it every day.
"We've had people in this area hit for $6,000 or $7,000 in the last year," Rogers added. "It's getting progressively worse.
This is where that old adage comes in. It always pays to err on the side of caution. If someone's offering something for nothing, or big payout for little investment, always be suspicious.
"Just because you get a check in the mail and it has a legitimate company listed on it, doesn't mean it's good," Rogers said. "Take that check to your local bank and have them check its status before attempting to cash it. Don't run to a check cashing place and try to cash them. It looks real, it feels real, the names match up, but the numbers don't."
Rogers added that no one should ever give out his or her personal information over the phone or via email links.
"Your bank, your Medicare or Medicaid, your credit card company, does not suddenly need your personal information," Rogers said. "They already have that. Don't ever respond directly to any emails or phone calls asking for personal information. Always go to the site yourself if you want to check and call the local branches of your banks."
And, of course, always report suspicious calls or emails to the local police.

Change Is In The Air
New Additions to ACC and Big East
By Helen Sowell, staff writer
In just a few weeks, college football "kicks-off" the 2011 season and if you're impatient like most gridiron groupies, the dog days of summer have lingered too long. It's time to put on the pads, line up nose-to-nose and get down to business. There's change in the air and none more apparent than in the ACC and Big East.
Twenty-four BCS schools will open with a new head coach - three of those will represent ACC universities and three will lead from the Big East. Maryland, UNC, Miami, UConn, West Virginia and Pitt welcome new stewardship on the sidelines and in the booth. Randy Edsall replaces Ralph Friedgen for the Terrapins, Everett Withers is the interim Tar Heel successor to Butch Davis, Al Golden takes the helm from Randy Shannon at Miami, Paul Pasqualoni replaces Randy Edsall at UConn, Todd Graham leads the Panthers of Pitt replacing Dave Wannstedt and Dana Holgerson succeeds Bill Stewart in Morgantown.
There will be big changes in the huddle, as well. In the ACC, five quarterbacks will be calling the plays with no prior starts - Tahj Boyd at Clemson, Bryn Renner at UNC, Mike Glennon at NC State, Mike Rocco (projected starter) at Virginia and Logan Thomas at Virginia Tech. As for the Big East, Will Stein of Louisville has two career starts under his belt and Michael Box of UConn has one.
Stadium enhancements at UNC and new uniforms for the Wolfpack of NC State accentuate the "out with the old, in with the new" mantra for 2011. New staff, new facilities, new faces – it's a new day for college football and we're ready!

First project explores debate teams
Mandate Pictures has signed Zach Helm ("Stranger Than Fiction") and his Gang of Two producing partner Jim Garavente to a first-look deal.
Gang of Two will look to produce films written by Helm, as well as shepherd projects by other writers and directors. Helm also wrote and directed the upcoming "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium" for Mandate with Garavente producing.
First project under the deal is a comedy focusing on the high-pressure world of high school speech and debate teams based on Helm's own embarrassing high school experiences.
Mandate will fully finance the untitled comedy with development execs turned writers David Posamentier and Geoff Moore writing the script. The writers are also working on pilots for DreamWorks TV, Touchstone TV and ABC.
"I've admired Zach's original voice ever since I first read 'Stranger Than Fiction' and now even more having seen what he's created with 'Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium,' " said Nathan Kahane, president of Mandate's Motion Picture group.
Helm's career began in Chicago theater, and he worked with Garavente when the latter served as his literary agent.

Fedora Jumps into the Trademark Guidelines Ring
Where Fedora is, so do they stand: shortly after openSUSE announced its own trademark guidelines, Fedora is coming up with its own variation.
Fedora project leader Paul Frields announced in a blog entry that the project was issuing trademark guidelines for Fedora. Only days ago openSUSE community manager Joe "Zonker" Brockmeier had announced his project's own guidelines from Novell. The pairing up of initiatives isn't totally coincidental in that Frields had recently met with his openSUSE "Zonker" counterpart: "He and I talked about the revision of Fedora trademark policies back in September of 2008, and in particular how those might inform work to revise those of openSUSE."
Both products agree that there should be ground rules as to use of trademarks and modifications. While the openSUSE guidelines are rather restrictive in that only unmodified versions of its software can bear the openSUSE marks and name, Fedora's guidelines are somewhat more generous and Fedora also wants to involve its Project Board in its decisions. Another alternative it proposes is "secondary trademark usage guidelines" that can apply to those using modified, enhanced or shortened Fedora code. This code should get the designation "Fedora Remix" and have the appropriate design identification.
According to Frields, the ensuing trademark guidelines have been increasingly vital since Fedora's split from Red Hat. By his account the previous guidelines "had a lot of dust on them" and "essentially copies of Red Hat's guidelines for its trademarks, with the word 'Fedora' substituted for 'Red Hat'." He considered the previous guidelines to be inflexible and hopes to rework them together with Red Hat lawyers to "develop something that was more reflective of our community's desire to help spread Fedora." The new regulations would allow, for example, use of the Fedora logo on social networks like LinkedIn, personal and business websites, trade shows and other community events.
Somewhat baffling is the proposed new FedoraCommunity.org domain over which international community sites should get their official sanctioning. The popular French Fedora-fr.org website was not particularly pleased about having to change its domain name, nor was Iran pleased about restricting an .ir subdomain. Frields promises answers and suggests staying calm: "Considering our guidelines were really draconian before, and I don't remember getting sued then, I'll try not to lose too much sleep over it."
Fedora-fr.orgYour comment about the owners of the "fedora-fr.org" domain having to change that name is incorrect -- we've not requested any such thing. In fact, we look forward to simply pointing "fr.fedoracommunity.org" to that site. I can't think of a good reason to have an established, popular community site change its already recognizable domain name, as long as it's using the Fedora trademarks in a way that's consistent with our fairly liberal guidelines.
Establishing a specific "fr.fedoracommunity.org" domain, as I see it, is simply a smart move. If a user encounters the overall "fedoracommunity.org" domain in another context, and types in the "fr." subdomain, we want them to end up at the established "fedora-fr.org" domain as a result.
