While a majority of the big names have reported earnings already, earnings season is far from over. In fact, some of the biggest individual earnings reports are yet to come. There are several investor favorites, including many battleground stocks, the ones investors love to debate, that are left to report. In fact, a number of them are reporting this week. Here are five storied stocks to watch this week.
Dendreon Corporation (NASDAQ:DNDN)
The maker of the prostate cancer treatment Provenge will report its second-quarter earnings after the bell on Monday. Analysts are currently looking for revenues of $85.78 million, which would be a 73.1% growth over the prior-year period. Analysts call for a loss of 59 cents per share, compared to 79 cents in the prior-year period. Excluding adjustments, Dendreon has missed earnings numbers in three of the past four quarters.
Dendreon shares are down about 18% on the year. However, Dendreon traded as high as $17.04 on February 7th, but closed at just $6.24 this past Friday. Recent rumors of a potential buyout failed to lift shares this week. Dendreon has been one of the biggest roller coaster stocks of the past few years. Analysts were very concerned over Provenge's future after the Q1 report, one of the reasons why shares have been knocked down so much. A good report this week will ease those fears and should send shares back towards the $10 level. However, a bad report, and the 52-week low of $5.69 will be definitely taken out. In that case, I would think that $5, perhaps even $4, could be tested.
Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE:HLF)
The global nutrition company will report its second-quarter results Monday after the bell, with a conference call scheduled for Tuesday morning. Analysts are looking for an 11.3% rise in quarterly revenues to $979 million. Earnings per share are expected to rise from $0.88 in the prior period to $0.96. Herbalife has beaten analyst expectations handily in each of the past four quarters.
I haven't covered Herbalife as much as some other names, but investors will be looking to see if this stock can bounce back. If you go back to early May, right after the company reported its Q1 results, the stock took a nasty plunge after some questions were asked by hedge fund titan David Einhorn. Einhorn is known for questioning some names and then seeing their stocks fall (one of which I'll get into later in this article). Herbalife shares fell from the low $70s to the low $40s, and closed Friday just under $54. I figure that some analysts will bring up some of the Einhorn questions on the call in some matter. So while this stock will move in after-hours on Monday, expect the real action to occur Tuesday morning. Does this stock recover towards the low $70s, or will it retest those low $40s?
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Inc. (NASDAQ:GMCR)
Another one of David Einhorn's favorites will report Wednesday after the bell. Analysts are currently expecting a 21.8% rise in revenues to $873.83 million for the fiscal third quarter. On the earnings front, analysts are expecting a one penny rise to $0.50.
When I analyzed where Green Mountain stood in June, analysts were expecting about $2 million less in revenues. Now, when Green Mountain guided for the quarter, it gave a range of $861 to $897 million, with a midpoint of $879 million. If the company hits that midpoint, it will be ahead of analyst expectations. However, this is a company that has missed tremendously in two of the past three quarters in terms of revenues.
In terms of earnings, Green Mountain forecast a range of $0.48 to $0.53. With expectations now at $0.50, the company could easily match that number. Last quarter, Green Mountain matched expectations despite missing tremendously on revenues. Green Mountain's earnings have fared better in relation to expectations than its revenues have.
Green Mountain shares stand just $1 off their 52-week low of $17.11. That's a far cry from the 52-week high of $116, and even the $50 it was trading at going into last quarter's earnings report. This is an incredibly important report for the company. It lowered guidance for the full year at the last report, and it better maintains the guidance here at the least. If the company can maintain or even raise guidance, shares should rebound. But if it misses again, watch out below. Green Mountain's growth has been in question for several quarters now. One more bad report will put the future of this company in serious doubt and could send shares all the way down to the single digits.
First Solar, Inc. (NASDAQ:FSLR)
The troubled solar giant will also report results after the bell on Wednesday. Current estimates call for a 53.5% rise in revenues to $817.59 million. Earnings per share are expected to rise 30%, from $0.70 to $0.91.
As I discussed a few weeks ago, First Solar is due for a revenue rebound. First Solar widely missed revenue expectations last quarter as certain revenues were not recognized. They are expected to be recognized in this quarter, which is why the forecast is for a 50% plus gain. Margins are expected to come down a little bit, which is why earnings per share are not forecast to rise at the same rate as revenues are expected to.
First Solar closed Friday at $14.50, just $3 off the 52-week low. However, this is a name that traded for more than $165 less than 18 months ago, and more than $100 less than a year ago. If First Solar can prove that conditions in the industry are improving, shares could start to rebound. However, this is a company that has lost $10 per share in the last two quarters on restructuring and other charges, and one that has missed earnings expectations in the past four quarters. This from a company that used to crush expectations. First Solar raised its 2012 earnings per share forecast at its last report, something analysts and investors didn't buy given the large Q1 miss. We'll find out this week whether the EPS raise was justified or if it was just management trying to keep shares propped up for just a little longer.
Molycorp, Inc. (MCP)
The rare earth mineral producer and processor will report Thursday after the bell. Current estimates call for a 16% rise in quarterly revenues to $115.56 million. However, earnings per share are forecast to plunge from $0.52 to $0.08.
Molycorp surprised everyone when it announced an acquisition of Neo Material Technologies a few months ago. Molycorp paid $1.3 billion, a price some think was too steep. Molycorp took on half of that, $650 million, in debt to finance the purchase. That has really expanded Molycorp's liabilities, and with the added interest costs, analysts have forecasted lower profits going forward.
Molycorp is a high-growth name. Revenues are expected to rise by more than 75% this year and more than 110% next year. However, Molycorp has had a tough time meeting expectations, so every time it reports, analysts end up taking down expectations. Back in September of 2011, analysts were expecting $4.03 in earnings this year (versus $1.70 in 2011). Current estimates call for just $1.11, and 2013 numbers have been taken down in stride as well. I've always said that shares of this company will soar if Molycorp can hit its marks, but over the past year, it just hasn't been able to.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.
Additional disclosure: Author has no positions in any names mentioned, and will not before earnings, but may initiate long or short positions on any of these names involved post-earnings.

Still, if microcirculation fails, tissue nutrition is impaired and cardiovascular repair becomes futile.—deTakats1
PERIPHERAL tissue oxygenation is poor in patients with single or multiple arterial occlusions which produce symptomatic ischemia. Distal blood flow is sluggish, the viscosity of capillary blood is increased, and the arteriolar pressure decreased. A self-perpetuating cyclic worsening of the ischemia develops and progresses until tissue necrosis supervenes.
When distal arterial reconstruction is anatomically impossible or physiologically unsupportable, indirect means of augmenting microcirculatory flow becomes desirable. Heparinization has been utilized and found to be effective in forestalling irreversible tissue necrosis. Administration of dextran 40 has been utilized and shown to be beneficial by some in treatment of acute arterial occlusion.2 Similarly, vasospastic and traumatic ischemia has been favorably influenced by infusion of dextran 40.3 Even the ischemia of fat embolism has been satisfactorily treated using low molecular weight dextran.4

The owner and operator of a Douglas bar could be going to jail for sales tax evasion.
Patrick M. Peterson of P P's Douglas Inn was supposed to change his plea on Friday to as many as sixteen charges filed by the CBJ in March. But neither he nor his attorney attended the hearing. Since it may have been the result of a simple scheduling error, a change-of-plea has been rescheduled for later this week.
Peterson faces eight misdemeanor charges of failing to file sales tax returns and eight misdemeanor charges of failing to remit sales taxes to the City and Borough of Juneau.
Court documents allege that Peterson collected at least $34,800 in sales taxes from his patrons between October 2009 and December 2011, but he did not pass the taxes on to the CBJ as required. Essentially, it was alleged that he was pocketing the sales taxes for himself.
Since this is not the first time that Peterson has run afoul of the CBJ for not remitting sales taxes, any plea agreement negotiated with prosecutors could likely include jail time and repayment of most of the owed taxes, plus interest and penalties. The total is now up to $42,084.80. Peterson could also spend up to ten days in jail for each of the sixteen charges. CBJ attorney August Petropolis believes it is one of the more significant cases in recent memory of unremitted sales taxes.
Larry Lee Lynd, operator of Wooly Mammoth Gifts and Sourdough Larry's, pled guilty in April on charges related to failure to remit $222,912 in sales taxes. He ultimately agreed to pay back $191,799. He was also sentenced to a suspended fine of $5,000 total and a suspended term of 180-days in jail.
Peterson was headed to trial in the case late last month.
Peterson in 2007 was convicted by a jury of not filing his sales tax returns, although his paid his debt shortly before trial started. According to archived news reports, Peterson was sentenced to community service and ordered to pay over $50,000 in penalties and interest.

How to Grow Monkey Puzzle Tree
Hi this is Yolanda Vanveen with howtogardenvideos.com and in this segment we're going to talk about one of my favorite trees in the world, the monkey-puzzle tree. I love the monkey-puzzle tree. It's really sharp, you cannot touch it at all and it likes full sun or part shade as long as it's in a pretty warm place and really good drainage.
They do really well in the northwest but they don't like to freeze to hard like on the eastern side of Washington or Oregon State, they're going to freeze out. Colder climates they might freeze out but if you're in a temperament climate they do really well.
Monkey-puzzle trees are really slow growing. So they take years and years to get big. So you have to be very patient with them and plant them like we said in a good sunny spot with good drainage and good compost, good soil and that's about all you do. Water them in the summer if it's really hot and you live in a warmer area but you just plant them and enjoy them.

MANSFIELD - The Tioga County Development Corp. celebrated 21 years of accomplishments with its 19th annual meeting at the university on Monday.
The event attracted about 150 guests to Mansfield University's dining hall in North Manser, and interim President Dr. Alan Golden was master of ceremonies.
Featured was the university's new Marcellus Institute, which was established in February to develop new academic programs focused on expanding the shale gas industry.

The Rod C. Kelchner Award for community service was presented Monday to Ron Butler, president and CEO of Laurel Health Systems, left, by Bill Williams, human resources director with Ward-HMAC Manufacturing LLC. Williams received the David W. Rundell Award for exceptional leadership to the Tioga County Development Corp.
Since then, the university has developed two degree programs in just a few months - the safety management bachelor of science program offered through the Department of Health Sciences and the natural gas production and services associate of applied science program offered through the Department of Geography and Geology.
Dr. Dennis Wydra, a retired professor, and Lindsey Sikorski, interim director of the institute, spoke about the new programs, which where granted approval from the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education board of governors June 28.
"I am in awe of how, with Dr. Golden's unique leadership skills, he was able to get the faculty to move so quickly," Wydra said.
The courses will be ready when students return to campus Aug. 27, and not only for those physically attending school here, but online courses as well, Wydra said.
"There will be three classes available online for the associates program, and 27.5 percent of the courses in the bachelor's program are online," he said.
In addition, Sikorski said, a family career night is coming in September as well as a speaker series which will be open to both students and the community.
TCDC also honored two of its own with the Rod C. Kelchner Award for community service and the David W. Rundell Award for distinguished service as a TCDC director.
This year's recipient of the Kelchner award went to Ron Butler, president and CEO of Laurel Health Systems. The Rundell award went to Anueurin "Bill" Williams, of Ward-HMAC Manufacturing LLC.
The Kelchner Award is presented to a person who has provided exceptional leadership to their community and the Rundell Award is presented to a director who has displayed excellence and exceptional service as a director of the corporation.

Good place for good price. Room was clean and comfortable. I can recommend this place for everyone.
Great sized room with plenty of space to store items and a fridge to store any food, access to shared kitchen. Host was very welcoming and gave us all the information needed to get to central brussels. Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Brussels.
If you would be unlucky and had a noisy neighbours (even just a little), take earplugs as you can hear every word from next room as walls are made from paper. At night there are no lights outside the property so it can be little tricky to get in/out. It took ages and a lot of discussions to get a proper invoice for the exact price I payed cause they have cheaper price while not using Windu.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
The location is perfect, at walking distance to the city centre and the supermarket. Unfortunately some dishes and cups were still dirty. The fridge didn't close that well. When we wanted to wash our hands, we got splashed all over. The bed was quite small, so we didn't sleep too well. The living room area ,however, was nice, with large couches and a TV. We also liked the façade (the large glass sliding door), so we could still enjoy the sun a bit.
A dirty cup stand on the table.
One bed was not clean! Absolutely filthy with blood and long black hair!
The personal at the rezeption was very friendly. Unfortunately, the reception was closed, as we have seen the Bed.
Beetje gehorig, beetje achterstallig onderhoud. Maar super plek voor een paar nachten!

Throughout history man has measured a horse's worth by what the horse could do for man. Horses have provided transport, done hard labor, carried soldiers into battle, performed as athletes and entertainers and have provided pleasure to millions. Somewhere along the way man has forgotten the true value of the horse… As we watch our horses just being horses, we can truly appreciate their intrinsic value. They are awesome creatures to behold. We are often awestruck by their bravery and their loyalty to each other and we are inspired daily by their intelligence, curiosity and playfulness. We feel we are indebted to these magnificent beings. So, on behalf of mankind, Refuge RR is giving back that which should never have been taken away, their freedom, and providing them with the protection that is owed to them.

Hi everyone,
As always, Refuge RR's animals need you and it is completely normal. The refuge is a charitable organisation and as all charity, the refuge works with donations and fundraisers only, and we receive occasionally a donation from a foundation.
With a great number of animals with over 75 being equines (horse's family), food cost is high and as we say, money doesn't grow on trees. If it would be the case, our backyard would be full of them (as yours would too :-) ) and we wouldn't need you, our dear donors and public.
We invite you to click on the image below to go to our online fundraiser page "Help Refuge RR".
All profit will go directly to feed the animals. Please be generous for the love of these magnificent animals and invite your family, your friends and everyone you know to do the same.

Agree. The Refs generally do a pretty good job.
I am not sure I have seen a single person (except this thread) complain about the refs for the Super Bowl
Overall was a great game
Can't say the same about the previous Superbowl - stolen by the refs with that video clip and the non-catch by Santonio Holmes in the end zone. (BTW - I could care less about the Arizona team).

Savor fine wines made by interesting small producers from lesser known areas of France. Impress your friends as you learn the art of complementing these good wines.
Enjoy a delectable fondue in the quaint part of the Latin Quarter.
Nearby, lies two churches by the river Seine, with perfect sunset views – one is the Notre Dame Catherdral, famous for Victor Hugo's novel the "Hunchback of Notre Dame"; the other is Saint-Germain-des-Prés.
It is in this area that you will settle in a cosy Jazz bar to end the evening.
When does it run?
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday & Friday
Approx. 4 hours
Start time
Meeting point
The tasting starts at 61, rue Quincampoix 75004 at 5:15pm.
After the tasting, a private car will be waiting outside the cellar at 6:15pm to transfer you to the Restaurant, Heureux Comme Alexandre, 13, Rue du Pot de Fer – 75005, where your table is reserved at 7:00pm.
After dinner walk down the hill towards the river to Caveau la Huchette - 5 rue de la Huchette for entry to the Jazz Club (Total Walking Distance 1.8Km).
Please report at the meeting point 5 minutes before the start time.
See on map
Ending point
The tour ends at Caveau la Huchette - 5 rue de la Huchette.
The evening will begin at 5:15pm with an introduction to French wine in an old refurbished underground cellar near the Pompidou Center.
Here, you will be offered six wines produced by lesser-known but excellent wine producers.
Following this, your wine expert will guide you through the different varieties of whites and reds and their regions such as Burgundy, Loire Valley, Bordeaux and the Cote du Rhone.
As you slowly sip the wine and allow it to roll over your palate, you will learn to identify the main components of taste, the importance of the grapes selected and the effect of aging.
A car will be waiting outside to transfer you to the Latin Quarter arriving around 6.15pm.
At 7:00pm you are booked at a Fondue bistro located near rue Moufftard in the heart of the Latin Quarter.
After dinner you will take a short leisurely walk towards the river Seine, until you reach rue de la Huchette. After 9:30pm (music starts at 10:15pm) you can enter one of the most famous traditional Jazz clubs in Paris where the greatest jazzmen in the world have appeared regularly since 1946.
Every evening, a jazz band performs for the listening pleasure of regulars and visitors alike. Dance in the timeless tradition of Saint-Germain des Pres jazz with the best boppers in Paris. Whether you are just a Jazz-Lover, like to dance your socks off, or are a professional musician, the exceptional atmosphere of the club will remind you of the Cotton Club and the Savoy in the glory days.
You can stay as long as you wish and when leaving, you are centrally located right across from Notre Dame.
The wine tasting was very well done. The host was knowledgeable, informative and very likable. Dinner (fondue) was very good, and the Jazz Club was extraordinary! Overall, a wonderful evening in the Latin Quarter.
We had a great night despite the lack of organisation for this 'walking tour'. We were told to arrive 15 mins early to wine tasting - no reason for this. Tasting & host was great. Dinner venue & host were very average & host didn't seem to be expecting us. After dinner incorrect directions were supplied to Jazz Club location.
If participants are expected to find own way around for this 'self guided walk, a good map with directions should be provided with tour voucher.
Given Jazz Club entertainment does not commence until 10pm, tour should not commence until at least 7 or 7.30pm.
Wear good walking and dancing shoes as you will have to walk to the Latin Quarter, and later on, if you wish, dance in the Jazz Club
Take an umbrella in case it rains

Who would make a good Harry Potter, do you think? Yuzuru?
Talking of famous - and John Williams - has anyone ever skated to Star Wars?
Definitely Yuzuru would make a great Harry. Do you remember that Swiss ski jumper whom everyone called Harry Potter in 2002 or 2006, Simon Ammann? He looked a lot like Yuzuru.
I don't know if anyone has ever skated to Star Wars. I can't recall anyone, but someone must have during all this time. It would be heaps of fun to see.
Thanks, Iluvtodd. Another gorgeous Horner score from a less popular movie is The Rocketeer, and Aren Nielsen skated to it.
I can't access Youtube right now since I'm at the library, so I can't post specifics, but:
I'd love to see someone use the music from JAG. They put out a soundtrack with the score and it's so powerful. I'm not sure who would be good or could do it justice, other than maybe someone with Paul Wylie's style.
I'd also love to see music from Mission Impossible (the TV series) and Hawaii 5-0 (Original series). Both of their scores are out as well. Brasseur and Eisler could have done a great Mission routine.
Anything by Hans Zimmer (soundtrack composer) would be terrific.
Have any skaters ever used Bond music, as in the Classical crossover group? They've got some great stuff. My favorite of theirs is Explosive.
Oh, and I would KILL to see Delta Force. It's an early 1980s hostage movie with Chuck Norris and the theme is amazing. There's some strong notes that would scream for a really powerful, high jump, a really neat fast section that would lead to a lively footwork sequence, and just some powerful notes in general that could really bring out some great expression in a skater. The best would be if somone used it for an Olympic freeskate and then won. It could really get the crowd going.
I also love the theme to Disney's Fantasmic and Indiana Jones. I'm surprised Indiana has never been used, to be honest. Maybe one day.
A lot of the action soundtracks are pretty popular with boy skaters at the lower levels.
Quite a few. The most famous being Yagudin's WinterHave any skaters ever used Bond music, as in the Classical crossover group? They've got some great stuff. My favorite of theirs is Explosive.
Since we are on film soundtracks, here are 2 of my favourites, from 2 of the biggest films of the 90s. Both would be brilliant as skating music.
John Williams Jurassic Park Overture
Probably my favourite film score of the past 20 years. Pretty much any of the sections of this piece would be perfect as skating music. Hey, if somebody wanted to go all out with a Jurassic Park theme, they could easily get both a SP and a FS out of it!
James Horners Titanic Suite
Just to warn you, this link is to the full-length orchestral version. NOT the Celine Dion My Heart Will Go On shortened version.
Last year, I went to a concert that the Ulster Orchestra held at the shipyard where the Titanic was built. They were due to play both of these pieces, but because of things over-running, they did not have enough time to perform the Jurassic Park Overture. But, they did perform the Titanic Suite in full, and it just sounds amazing live!
The Drama
The Performance
But, personally, I didn't like the music she used. Yes, they used some of the main Jurassic Park theme in the middle, but it would have been a lot better if they had used it for the entire programme. Frankly, the music at the start and end was boring.
But, that is just my opinion.
As for Titanic, there are quite a few gala performances with Celine Dion singing along, e.g. Akiko Suzuki, Jennifer Jones, Juliet Feinman (to name but a few of the results on the first page of the YouTube search for "Titanic Skating").
But, my favourite was this performance by Savchenko and Szolkowy.
S/S were skating along to live music provided by André Rieu and an orchestra. André was actually standing on the ice playing, so I was particularly impressed by the fact that niether skaters nor violinist got in each other's way, nor did they put each other off their performance. Talk about a perfect example of professionalism!
Locomotive Breath by Jethro Tull- Plushenko
There's an ad for the Criterion Collection on Hulu. I think those are violins playing.
The music is eerie and different, and I think a good skater could do something with it.

A four-alarm blaze tore through a section of Belmont Avenue in Jersey City yesterday, starting just before noon and displacing 23 residents from seven homes, officials said.
Firefighters responding to 27 Belmont Ave., near Crescent Avenue, found heavy fire on the first floor, Jersey City Fire Chief Darren Rivers said at the scene.
The blaze spread up the walls and into the cockloft, and from there spread to 25 and 29 Belmont, Rivers said.
The blaze sent orange flames shooting through the roof and windows of Nos. 27 and 29 and sent huge plumes of smoke into the air.
"This was a fast-spreading fire because the buildings are attached," Fire Director Armando Roman said at the scene.
According to Roman, two Jersey City firefighters were injured during the blaze. One firefighter received a shock when he touched an electrical outlet, Roman said. He was checked out by EMS on the scene and returned to fighting the fire, Roman said.
A fire captain complained of chest pains and was transported to Jersey City Medical Center, Roman said.
One of the residents at 27 Belmont Ave. apparently made a harrowing escape from the burning home.
A teacher at nearby School 12 told Roman that he watched the man jump out a third-floor window at the back of the building to escape the blaze. Roman was told the resident hung onto wires, then dropped onto an awning.
Diane Concannon, of the American Red Cross, said 10 families were affected, 23 people total. The Red Cross is assisting eight of those families in finding temporary lodging, while the other two families were insured and were taken care of last night, Concannon said.
Fire investigators have not determined the cause of the fire, but Roman said they have confiscated a gas can that was found near the front door of 27 Belmont.
Roman could not say if any of the buildings would have to be demolished. Brick buildings, such as the ones on Belmont Avenue, stand up better to fires than the wood-framed buildings found in other parts of the city, he noted.
Roman said that as many as 100 firefighters battled the fire, which was declared under control at 3:02 p.m.

Hall of Fame: Ed West
The journalist commenting on his Telegraph blog on Europe's hatred of Israel
June 15, 2010
"The Syrians have an attitude towards Islamists that makes the Israelis look like Birkenstock-wearing pinkos in comparison – 53 Palestinians (mostly combatants) were killed during the IDF's attack on Jenin a few years back; anywhere between 25-40,000 people, mostly civilians, were killed when the Syrians stormed the town of Hama to crush an Islamist revolt.
"How many of the flotilistas have even heard of Hama? None, because no one in Europe cares about 40,000 dead Arabs if it's Arabs doing the killing – it seems if you can't blame the Jews, it ain't news"

• We present a new method for detection of micrometastases to axillary lymph nodes and estrogen receptor determination. Cellular suspensions from primary infiltrating ductal breast carcinoma or level I axillary lymph nodes of patients who underwent mastectomies were obtained, by loosely grinding fresh tumors or lymph nodes through a grid and then transferring the matrix to a slide using cytocentrifugation. Tumor samples were analyzed for estrogen receptor status using an immunocytochemical kit and compared with the dextran-coated charcoal method. Thirty-eight of 46 correlated (20 were estrogen positive, and 18 were estrogen negative). Seven of 46 were estrogen positive while results from the dextran-coated charcoal method were estrogen negative. One of 46 was estrogen negative, while the results from the dextran-coated charcoal method were estrogen positive. Lymph node slide preparations were stained to detect tumor cells using antikeratin monoclonal antibodies. Three of 8 node-negative patients were found to have micrometastases. Four of 15 node-positive patients had additional nodes with tumor. Our method combines the advantages of serial sectioning and immunohistochemical staining.

The Blues are my team in the West again, so many likeable players and they have built this team without tanking AND on a small internal budget, so that's extremely impressive.
Their loyal fans deserve a winner and it would be good for the whole city, if the Blues could bring in a cup.
Without tanking? Well maybe not Pittsburgh/Chicago style, but their current franchise defenseman was drafted 4th overall in 2008 as a result of them finishing second last in the West. The Wings won the President's Trophy and the Stanley Cup that year.
Sorry, but the Blues have built a team off of pretty good draft positions.
That being said, I'd have zero issues with St Louis winning the cup.

Department Chairs v. Medical Directors: Which type of leadership is right for you?
Medical Staff Leader Insider, July 21, 2011
Want to receive articles like this one in your inbox? Subscribe to Medical Staff Leader Insider!
Today's medical staffs have many challenges that previous generations did not such as, increased scrutiny of patient safety, the need for clinical and economic integration, increasing standardization of best practices, and accountability for service to name a few. In the past, the organized medical staff was comprised of elected officers and leaders who volunteered their free time in an effort to give back to the community and to benefit their individual practices. Today's leadership responsibilities are far more demanding and require that individuals excel not only in the traditional skills of clinical management but in other skills including, credentialing/privileging, peer review, quality oversight, patient safety, OPPE/FPPE (for Joint Commission-accredited organizations), and accountability for nationally recognized standards of quality, safety, and service. These are not skills taught in medical school, and you cannot assume that a clinical competent individual will be a competent leader. Thus, medical staffs are re-thinking the concept of leadership and who should exercise leadership roles.
In the past, the organized medical staff was accountable directly to the governing board. Since the 1980s, Joint Commission-accredited organizations created a medical executive committee (MEC) accountable to the governing board on behalf of the organized medical staff. Small medical staffs may act as their own MEC by creating a "committee of the whole" in which the medical staff-at-large performs all the required medical staff functions, such as credentialing/privileging, peer review, and quality oversight. This accountability system is outlined in medical staff bylaws, which are a legally binding contract or compact (depending on the state) between the organized medical staff and the governing board.
Interestingly, many medical staffs ignore this bylaws accountability and instead focus on traditional silos of clinical departments. Clinical departments essentially ran the show for years with surgeons overseeing surgeons, internists overseeing internists etc. with little, if any, accountability to the MEC. In fact, the MEC has been traditionally made up of medical staff officers and department chairs, and they often saw their role on MEC as advocating for and protecting each others' political and economic interests. How many times does MEC hold a department chair accountable when he or she does not feel comfortable dealing with a politically or economically powerful colleague's performance issues? This is the classic challenge of the 'tail wagging the dog'—the political and economic interests within a clinical department dictate the level to which a physician is held accountable for performance issues although those issues impact patient quality and safety.
In order the address this political issue, many organizations create medical director positions to oversee clinical areas. A medical director is different from a department chair in that the medical director:
Reports to a senior manager (chief medical officer, vice president for medical affairs, or chief executive officer) rather than the MEC
Has accountabilities articulated through a professional services agreement (PSA) that usually provides compensation in exchange for leadership responsibilities
Has protected time to perform leadership and administrative responsibilities
Often has a job descriptions, specific performance expectations, and annual or semi-annual performance evaluations
Thus a medical director is a management position and not a medical staff position. To contrast this, a department chair is a medical staff position that:
Reports to the MEC through the president of the medical staff/chief of staff
Has accountabilities articulated through medical staff bylaws and often receives little if any compensation
Has little if any protected time to perform leadership and administrative responsibilities
Often does not have specific performance expectations nor an annual or semi-annual performance evaluation
So, if this is the case, why not convert all of the department chairs to medical directors? There are several political and economic reasons why this has not been done. First, because a medical director is under management's control, the medical staff is not likely to support eliminating medical staff oversight and accountability for fear that the clinical expertise of the medical staff will play a secondary role to operational and financial performance. Second, most medical staffs do not have a large number of leaders who are interested in a high level of accountability, and leaders themselves may resist the idea of working more closely with senior management. Third, there is often a delicate political balance between senior management and the medical staff that may become destabilized by this leadership shift.
Finally, although medical directors report directly to senior management, they are still accountable to the organized medical staff (through the MEC) for the conduct and care of all practitioners granted privileges by the organized medical staff. This is a matter of federal law as outlined in CMS's Conditions of Participation, which state:
§482.12(a)(5) Ensure that the medical staff is accountable to the governing body for the quality of care provided to patients;
Interpretive Guidelines §482.12(a)(5)
The governing body must ensure that the medical staff as a group is accountable to the governing body for the quality of care provided to patients. The governing body is responsible for the conduct of the hospital and this conduct includes the quality of care provided to patients.
Thus, medical directors have dual accountabilities: The first is to senior management (as outlined in their PSA or contract), and the second is to the MEC/organized medical staff (as outlined in the medical staff bylaws, contract, or compact). Can senior management place many of the medical staff bylaws expectations into a PSA/contract? Yes; however, the dual accountabilities still exist.
Department chairs, on the other hand, are only accountable VIA the medical staff bylaws to the MEC through the president of the medical staff/chief of staff and have no direct accountability to senior management, including the chief medical officer/vice president for medical affairs.
So, what is the right answer for you: medical directors, department chairs, or medical directors and department chairs? A lot depends on your political environment and the rapport and mutual support between the medical staff and senior management. When trust is high, medical directors provide an excellent way for the MEC and senior management to collaborate on the oversight of clinical quality and conduct; when trust is low, this may be problematic.
Either way, the governing board must be assured through both the medical staff and senior management that leaders are doing the right thing and are protecting the interests of patients and the community. More than ever, we need leaders who will work with senior management to achieve a high level of quality and safety at a reduced cost. This is hard to do and whether leaders are medical staff- or management-based. What is important is that they are able to lead and to help the medical staff and hospital to succeed.

This is very true of our voyage here, even though it is a virtual one! Another saying that applies here is, the more you learn, the more you realize how little you know, which is definitely my case in this adventure! So, we continue our voyage of fiber discovery with the knowledge that we are not on the highway, but rather the road less taken.
These are the kitties for whom this blog was named. They seem to find the travelling exhausting!
Merino wool.
We have followed it's origins from Africa to Australia and have learned many things.
Merino is:
- the highest quality of sheep's wool
- it's quality is determined by how the sheep are bred, fed and cared for
- it's quality is also determined by how and where the fleece is processed, spun and dyed
|Sheep with a "coat" to keep the fleece clean!
New information:
- Merino is extremely soft, but not very strong.
- It is best suited for next to skin garments like hats, scarfs, mittens
- Merino is often mixed with other fibers like coarse sheep's wool, alpaca, silk and cashmere (we will eventually get to these melanges!)
|The American merino wool organisation
- Although wool production is not an important market in the United States, there are farmers who raise Merino sheep and produce wool, so we can encourage local wool producers and buy beautiful Merino wool. This is must certainly be true in most countries where sheep thrive.
|French breed developped from Spanish Merino by Louis XVI (i.e. Louis and Marie-Antoinette!)
Have a great weekend! Next week we will begin to discover other types of sheep's wool!

Use the HTML5 audio player instead of the Flash player.
Would you mind using the <audio> tag from HTML5 as a radio player, instead of Flash?
Could it then still be possible to see the current artist and the title of the track?

You could provide this metadata as RSS feed. I would be willing to pay for this metadata because I could create plugins for SqueezeBox and other music players!

Do LTOs do multiple densities like the later TZ8xes did?

Like Judi Dench, Ian McKellen has reached a mass audience through his superb performances on film, for instance as Gandalf in The Lord of the Rings.
McKellen was well received in repertory theatres soon after he graduated from Cambridge University in 1961. He made his breakthrough as a classical actor in 1969 playing Shakespeare's Richard II and Marlowe's Edward II for the touring Prospect Theatre Company. These drew rave reviews from many, including Irving Wardle of The Times: 'Beyond sheer animal magnetism, he also raises acting from a secondary thing, a reflection of life, into a primary position'.
In 1971 he co-founded, with Edward Petherbridge, the Actors' Company, a collective of actors who had equal say in the choosing and casting of plays and in the recruiting of directors. He went on to star at the RSC in an award-winning Macbeth. His roles since have been many and varied, but they have all benefited from his characteristic emotional power, meticulous detail, and intelligent subtlety.

It's a 100% FREE Motley Fool service...
Although we don't believe in timing the market or panicking over market movements, we do like to keep an eye on big changes -- just in case they're material to our investing thesis.
What: Shares of MAKO Surgical (UNKNOWN: MAKO.DL ) , a robotic surgery device maker specializing in orthopedic implants, jumped as much as 13% after reporting its fourth-quarter earnings results.
So what: For the quarter, MAKO recorded $30.2 million in revenue and announced that it had sold 45 of its RIO orthopedic surgical platforms worldwide in 2012. Revenue fell from the $32.9 million reported in the year-ago period and was short of the $31.4 million Wall Street had expected. MAKO's fourth-quarter loss of $0.13, however, met expectations. Looking forward, MAKO anticipates selling 45 to 48 RIO platforms in 2013 (essentially flat to up 7% from 2012), and performing 13,500 to 14,500 MAKOplasty procedures, which would represent procedure growth of 32% to 42% from 2012.
Now what: With better physician training in place, we're beginning to see procedure growth increase, but the pace at which RIO surgical platforms are selling has to be irritating both investors and the Street. MAKO can somewhat limit research and development costs on its end, but I doubt that'll be enough to bridge the gap to turn it profitable anytime soon. This means that while losses may be shrinking, they should continue, in my estimate, at least through 2013.

This tool should be used in duo courses that are used to help teach academic modules. It allows staff to deploy the approved module outline data held by the University in the Faculty Handbook. For more information about Module Outlines see http://www.dur.ac.uk/faculty.handbook/. Note that this tool only display sthe Module Outline, the process of generating and approving them remains part of the University website (CMS) and is not detailed here. The Module Outline is part of the University Education Committee's Required Content.
The tool has been developed by members of the Learning Technologies Team at the request of the Academic Office. It has been designed to save staff time (no need to retype data the University already holds) and ensures that the information in duo always reflects that approved by the Education Committees and published in the Faculty Handbook.
This page provides a summary of the basic functions.
- Displaying the Outline
- First-Time Access
- Configuring the Outline
- Customisation by Students
- Deployment Options
Displaying the Outline
You can add a link to the Module outline anywhere in your course by creating a custom content item:
- for more details about this see the Deployment Options section
Normally however, the Module Outline Tool is accessed from the standard course Tools menu. If you want, you can create a direct link to the Module Outline tool in your course menu. Regardless of how you get there it's behaviour is the same. Let's keep things simple and assume for the moment that you get there via the standard course Tools menu:
What happens when you click on the link depends whether or not you have EDIT_MODE switched on. (Remember only staff can see/turn on EDIT_MODE). With EDIT_MODE switched off, all users should see the Module Outline data. If EDIT_MODE is switched on, you see the page used to configure it.
First-Time Access
As the information displayed in the Module Outline communicates the format, pre-requisites and method of examination, it is important it is correct. As such, during the design of this tool it was decided that it would be better to display no information than the wrong information, so the first time it is used in a course, it needs to be configured by a member of staff.
If you have have EDIT_MODE switched on you will see the configuration page with a red warning bar above it:
If you have have EDIT_MODE switched off(or are accessing it as a student) you will be redirected to a page informing you that the correct module code still needs to be set.
Configuring the Outline
To configure the tool simply access it from the Course Tools area in EDIT_MODE, i.e. if you are looking at it, click the EDIT_MODE button at the top right of the screen. This page is displayed:
Normally you will only need to use the settings in step 1.
Module Code – enter the appropriate value used in the Student Record System (e.g. ANTH1011). Note that duo will try and populate this field automatically from the duo course code.
If you need to display multiple Module Outlines, then this is possible. Simply click the Add Multiple Codes button and the form will change to allow you to enter two or more module codes.
Level – please indicate whether this is an undergraduate or postgraduate course (the default is undergraduate). This matters as the data are stored in different handbooks.
Default List Behaviour – indicate whether you want the Module Outline to appear in full, or as expandable headings, and then whether or not you want users to be able to change this – we strongly advise you to allow personalisation – see the Customisation section below.
For courses in duo that follow the default naming convention – i.e. the course code ends with the academic year, e.g. 'ANTH1234_2012″ then you can ignore step 2. If you have a non-standard course and want to ensure that the Module Outline displayed is from a particular year then be sure to set the Publication Year in step 2.
Press Submit to save your changes.
Should you enter an invalid module code, you'll see this page with EDIT_MODE turned off:
Customisation by Students
When you set up this tool, you specify how you want the list to appear by default.
It can either be shown fully expanded:
Or just as a series of headings:
Each of which can be expanded or contracted by clicking on them.
The expandable format may be more useful to users accessing the information on a mobile device or computer with a small screen. It may also help users with certain learning needs, by reducing the amount of information presented at any one time.
If you choose one of the Default List Behaviour options that allows the user to change this setting, then they will see a Preferences button above the list. This allows them to override your settings. Note that this user preference setting applies to all courses, as if they want/need this view in one course, they probably want/need it in all the others.
Note that in all cases the page includes a link to the appropriate Faculty Handbook entry at the top of the page. Clicking that will open the University website at the appropriate page in the Faculty Handbook
Deployment Options
For most people the course tool option should work fine. If you want you can even add a button to the course menu (a Tool link) that points directly to the Module Outline Tool to do this simply click the Add to Course Menu button that displays in edit mode (after you have successfully configured the tool).
During alpha testing of the tool, we received feedback from some staff who had taken a slightly different approach to providing students with information about their module. They already had a whole content area in their duo course devoted to this. It had several entries – lists of staff contacts, details of how to find lecture and tutorial rooms, dates for assessments, etc. They included Module Outline data in this section (usually as a Word file). They were keen to see the automatic inclusion of the data, but didn't want users to have to navigate away to the Course Tools Area to find it. This was great feedback and we managed to meet this need by including an extra feature – the ability to add a link to the Module Outline as a piece of custom content.
To add a link to the Module Outline Tool, navigate to the appropriate part of the course. With EDIT_MODE switched on,click the button marked Add Interactive Tool and select the option Link to the Module Outline:
After entering appropriate information on the form that opens, a new item is added to the course. When someone clicks on it, they are taken straight to the Module Outline information.
If you choose this deployment method, remember that you still need to configure the Module Outline once, (entering the codes to display).
Adopting technology in simple and effective ways to actively support students and increase their activity and self-responsibility.
Further use of technology that facilitates key aspects of student's individual and collaborative learning and assessment through increasing their choice and control.
Developed use of technology that requires higher order individual and collaborative learning that reflect how knowledge is created and used in professional environments.
|This tool provides students with simple, consistent access to the module outline information.
|Allowing the user to personalise the display provides them with information in a format best suited to their needs.
|Presenting this information to students directly in the course allows them to plan their work and target their activity appropriately.

A simple search for "Pierre Karl Péladeau" on the Director General of Elections' online donations database reveals that five donations were made to provincial political parties in that name since 2005.
Three donations totalling $5,000 were made by one "Pierre Karl Péladeau" to the Liberal Party of Quebec from 2005 to 2007, while Jean Charest was Premier. A DGE spokesperson told CJAD 800 News that it is possible a man with the same name could have made the donations.
$3,000 in contributions were made under the same name to the Parti Québécois and the now-defunct Action Démocratique du Québec in 2010 and 2007 respectively.
A PQ spokesperson initially said that the party had no comment to make on the matter.
Questioned at a press conference by CJAD 800 News, Péladeau said if he did make the donations, it shouldn't be interpreted as a sign of support to the Liberal party.
"I was not completely aware of my donation. Thank you for the information," he said. "You should not take this as any relation, association with the Liberal Party. I voted 'yes' at the referendum...I always believe in democracy...political parties are a part of democracy, so there is no problem to donate to all parties in Quebec."

To say that 'The Tree of Life' was highly anticipated would be an understatement. The release of any film by Terrence Malick has become something of a holiday for me, and not just because this is only is fifth feature in 40 years. He possesses a voice unparalleled in film, a vision undaunted by convention, and a gift that yields a result more akin to poetry than what usually saturates theatre screens.
So, what is it about, exactly? To begin with: dreams, the universe, evolution, grace, violence, spirituality, nature. The narrative is loose and impressionistic, with the majority of the film set in Waco, Texas during the 1950s as three brothers explore their childhood as it burgeons into adolescence. Most of the film is presented as a recollection from Sean Penn's character and, fittingly, 'Life' feels like a mosaic of emotional expression rather than a retelling of straightforward plot. But when thinking back on the film – as I have often done since its Toronto premiere – an odd thing has happened where the movie itself feels like a memory of my own. Not a memory of watching the film and viewing it from afar, but actually living it and reminiscing on an experience of my own. And I can think of no higher praise for such a beguiling and essential work.
Visit the official website and view the trailer. It is set for wide release on July 8th with limited showings until then.
