Trident Technical College has been leading the way in incorporating college level classes into high schools in the Lowcountry. And while this may not be for every student, Trident believes that every student who wants to take part should be able to do so, regardless of affordability.
Consequently, it will pay the way for those students who qualify for subsidized lunch in public schools.
Melissa Stowasser, director of high school programs at Trident, says that since the 1990s, Trident has had programs for high school students. Some involve the students taking college courses at Trident, some, in partnership with high schools, involve special programs, honor colleges and some, like Dorchester District Two's new Early College dual degree program, happen within the normal high school setting.
DD2 began its new program last week. And every student who qualified has been able to go, thanks to Trident's scholarship support, which helps approximately 37 percent of DD2s first dual degree class.
In addition to tuition assistance, The Trident Technical College Foundation has provided textbooks and materials through its Steinberg Book Fund.
Stowasser says the book fund came about a number of years ago after she got a call from a high school administrator asking to have one of its students withdrawn from the Spanish class they were taking. When she asked why, she was told it was because the student couldn't afford the textbook.
"Textbooks can run $200 each," she said, "and that is beyond a lot of kid's ability to pay. So we started the book fund and we have worked with the publishers to get them to donate 20 to 25 textbooks each year to our lending library and student can borrow the books for the semester."
They are even allowed to highlight and make notes in margins, the theory being that those notes will help the next student.
"If you are a college student," Stowasser explained, "you have financial aid options like FAFSA and Pell but if you are a high school student you don't qualify. What we do is take their financial information and if they have qualified for subsidized school lunch, we can send them directly to Lottery funds and so forth."
In 2012-2013, the foundation/fund spent $65,000 on books and materials (not including book donations), for students in the Tri-county area and have helped 580 students, said David Hansen, Trident PIO.

February 1, 2011, Lilongwe, Malawi]------In one of the strangest legislation I have ever heard, not to mention highly impractical, one country is determined to make farting a crime by law.
Yes, you read correctly, the African country of Malawi, led by Dr. Bingu wa Mutharika, is reportedly gearing up to vote in Parliament on a number of weird legislature, one being the absolutely normal body function of the human race and some animals too, I think?
According to Mailonline, the government's reason for even wanting such gibberish into law? Malawi officials want to stop citizens from" fouling up the air' and also 'mould responsible and disciplined citizens.'
Among the other strange legislation being voted on are-- insulting the modesty of a woman, challenging to fight a duel, trespassing on a burial place and also pretending to be a fortune teller.
The leaders of the Opposition parties have reportedly said that these new laws are turning the parliament into 'kangaroo courts'.

IBM Tech to Help NYC Track, Analyze Solar Energy
IBM has partnered with CUNY Ventures, a City University of New York Economic Development Corporation entity, to develop an intelligent operations platform that will help the city analyze and understand key market indicators that can make solar system development more cost competitive.
IBM will use its Intelligent Operations Center for Smarter Cities, which was created by the company in collaboration with cities around the world, as the backbone of an analytics system to help NYC monitor solar production and capacity through a virtual control room that will provide a dashboard view of key indicators (see photo).
The collaboration with CUNY Ventures is part of 'Solar Market Analytics, Roadmapping and Tracking NY,' or SMART NY project. The Smart NY project is supported by a grant from the US Department of Energy SunShot Initiative Rooftop Challenge, a national effort to make solar energy cost competitive with other energy sources by 2020.
SMART NY has three components designed to accelerate the adoption of solar in NYC: address the soft costs associated with solar installations, develop the NYC Solar Portal and create an intelligent operations center for solar. These SMART NY projects aim to spur the largest rooftop solar market in the country and lower installation costs. CUNY and its partners plan to replicate the SMART NY model throughout the state of New York, CUNY said.
With IBM's IOC software, CUNY Ventures will access and analyze data from the NYC Solar Portal, data systems in solar empowerment zones and the NYC Solar Map, which shows existing solar photovoltiac and solar thermal installations in the city.
Last month, IBM won a contract to develop and install smart building technology in 50 of the federal government's most energy-consuming buildings, an initiative that will save taxpayers $15 million annually. The resulting data could help cut operating costs across the General Service Administration's inventory of nearly 182 million square feet.

Lisa, just wanted to say hi and congratulations on finding your way here. The primal blueprint is such a good read, it really inspired me. Mark has an excellent way with words, it all makes such good sense.
Perhaps you can focus on eating good foods rather than feel that you're depriving yourself of your favourites? It's what I suggest to the people who say I could do without 'X'. Make a list of the good foods you really enjoy but might only consider a treat normally, and make sure you have plenty of them in the house. I mean, snacking on smoked salmon or whatever might seem decadent but is better than biscuits or cake or sweets. I always suggest keeping coconut around as a snack food as well (frozen if it's just you) as it's great for snacking on.

'I blessed it'
Pól Ó Muirí
The old ways never die. My youngest daughter, five, was eating some sweets when one fell on the ground. Quick as a flash, she bent down – waste not, want not – and popped it in her mouth. Horrified, I told her never to eat anything from the floor again. She just looked at me with her big blue eyes and said: "Don't worry daddy, I blessed it."

In 39 patients (mean age, 66 years) treated for sick sinus syndrome (SSS) with pacemaker insertion, the long-term prognosis was studied. Fifteen patients (42%) died during the follow-up period of 6 to 59 months (mean, 25 months). Three patients were unavailable for follow-up. Eleven of the 15 deaths (73%) were cardiac-related, yet none could be associated with either an arrhythmia or pacemaker failure. Symptoms recurred or persisted after pacemaker insertion in 14 patients (mean age, 71 years), nine of whom died (31 deaths per 100 patient follow-up years). Twenty-two patients (mean age, 63 years) were asymptomatic after pacer insertion, six of whom died (11 deaths per 100 patient follow-up years). These follow-up results demonstrate a poor long-term prognosis in patients with SSS and persistent symptoms following permanent pacing.

We've posted a few of these photos before, but here is a little series showing how the bicycle increases mobility for those faced with physical challenges. The chap above is dapper and chic on his trike, looking sharp in his suit and scarf. The fact that his right arm is missing is a detail. He still gets around perfectly well.
Cycling while pregnant is virtually a prescription in Denmark. It lightens the load and keeps you exercising and keeps you mobile.
When aging sets in, there are still plenty of opportunities for getting around - and looking sharp while doing so. The bicycle is such a liberation tool to this day, just as it was back it at the beginning of bicycle culture.
Many elderly ride trikes in Copenhagen.
Disabled persons are often seen on bicycles, like this chap with Down's Syndrome at the beach last summer.
If you're 'vertically challenged' as political correctness will have it, there's nothing stopping you from riding a bike.
Even with a leg in a cast, if the injury allows it, you are flying along the bike lanes like there is no tomorrow.

Funding announced for food, shelter programs
August 26, 2014
WASHINGTON, D.C. — U.S. Senators Joe Manchin and Jay Rockefeller, along with Rep....
Dems always yell about how 'they' are so compassionate for the less fortunate. Yet they GIVE POCKET CHANGE out of their OWN checkbooks.
Rockefeller travels by PRIVATE plane to Charleston and DC; charges us poor WV workers below poverty line a $4,400 bill each time. Blames it on his bad knees. Like sitting in a seat on a PRIVATE plane is somehow different than sitting on a commercial flight. Sure; he is an entitled democrat and thinks he's above flying on a 'gasp!' commercial plane with other people NOT in his class. Glad you're leaving us senator.
You ever notice how 'sympathetic' a liberal gets "as long as THEY don't have to help" out of their OWN WALLETS???
Democrats give less of their OWN MONEY to charities than conservatives. But hey, they LOVE and don't mind giving all OUR'S away. Dems force working poor families to give more of their hard earned paychecks to others who won't work. And they stupidly call it 'charity.'
If they want to help them, take it out of your

NON-disaster related emergencies. Really? NOT surprised these two STUPID liberals are once again, forcing WORKING TAXPAYERS to support lazy non-taxpayers, non-workers!!
Thank God Rockefeller is leaving us. Now, let's assure Manchin does too. Get these taxpayer-spending fools out of office permanently. Pretty soon, workers will figure it doesn't pay to work either. What happens when the commies run out of other peoples' money to give away and waste?????????????
Communism only works till you run out of other people's money!

yea im 15 and our school has a wrestling team. i just wanted to know how much wrestling helped in mma? thanks
Just look at Brock and Gsp
wrestling is good.
Wrestling is a great base to draw from but by itself isn't the end all/be all. A person also needs to know how to defend subs and be able to strike both on the ground and standing. This is where the Jits and Muay Thai come into play.
Good base for sure, but HS wrestling programs aren't all that great. If you can later on get in a college program...most colleges have pretty good programs.
If I were 15 I'd take BJJ before wrestling in HS.
I have done BJJ and Judo. I think if I walked onto a college wrestling team I could try out and do pretty well (although it would be pretty tempting to armbar someone).
Actually I was being serious. Some people forget that doing BJJ both guys can't be on their backs...someone has to be on top. I actually have a pretty good top game and have rolled with many collegiate wrestlers and was able to get and hold top position on them. So why would it be so absurd that someone that can move and has a very good BJJ top game could walk on to a college team and actually make it? Sure the rules are different, but someone who actually knows how to move and hold position has a much better chance than the average Joe.
And just so you know I actually have very good confidence in my wrestling because I have worked/trained with many wrestlers that competed on very high levels. I train in BJJ as well as Judo and wrestling, so your comment about me not being confident in my wrestling was absurd...you didn't even ask if I had ever wrestled before.

|Focusing on the financial risk for business owners
Both current and potential small business owners face difficult choices when it comes to financial decisions. Many often wonder, "How much risk is too much?" Do you find yourself pondering this question? Although the answer is unique to each business, understanding some of the many types of financial risk may help you make more informed decisions.
Cash flow risk
Perhaps the most important priority in any small business is making sure enough money comes through the door to keep the lights on and the operation running. To help the business weather low-cash-flow periods, be sure to have several months' worth of business expenses (including your own income, as well as your employees') set aside in a safe, liquid account for easy access. Make sure your business budget accounts for the time it takes most of your customers' bills to be paid. Also, plan a few tactical moves that will help you quickly cut costs during short-term cash crunches.
For example, when times are good, buy supplies in bulk so that you can cut back in those areas during the crunch periods. Also, identify the discretionary items in your budget that can be eliminated, so you'll know ahead how much you can save by doing so. Finally, when faced with financial challenges, try to negotiate better deals for both fixed and variable costs. Suppliers, lenders and even landlords will often renegotiate rather than risk losing a good customer or tenant.
Liability risk
Eager to get under way, new business owners may overlook the importance of choosing the most appropriate business entity. For example, are you comfortable putting your family's home and your personal savings on the line for the sake of your great idea? If not, you probably want to consider your choice of business structure carefully. Not only is it critical in managing your personal liability, but your decision will also determine how much control you maintain over the business itself. Following is a brief overview of several popular business structures:
• Sole proprietorships: Although the easiest type of business to set up, a sole proprietorship is among the riskiest in terms of personal liability. This structure can put nearly all of your personal assets at risk.
• Partnerships: In a general partnership, all partners can act on behalf of one another in managing the business, and each partner is personally liable for the acts of others. All partners are personally responsible (though not necessarily equally so) for the financial obligations of the business. In a limited partnership, one person typically acts as the managing partner while others act as limited partners. The limited partners have little involvement in day-to-day management, and their personal liability is generally limited to the amount they invest.
• Corporations: C corporations and S corporations provide the greatest liability protection. However, there are many drawbacks to these entities, including higher levels of complexity and the potential loss of control to shareholders and board members.
• Limited Liability Companies: LLCs offer protections that are similar to corporations, but with less complexity.
Credit and interest rate risk
Although there are likely many successful entrepreneurial tales that began with maxed-out credit cards, financing your business with plastic is a highly risky endeavor. First, you need to ensure you maintain enough cash flow to make at least the minimum payment each month. Second, if you do not ramp up quickly enough to pay off the credit cards over a short period of time, you will end up paying much more over the long term than the initial amount borrowed.
Business owners with established track records may consider traditional commercial loans from either their local banks or the Small Business Administration. Consider, however, these loans typically have adjustable interest rates. Although rates have been relatively low in recent years, a strengthening economy has led to talk of higher rates, which means higher minimum payments for those with adjustable rate loans. Business owners should always be aware of interest rate risk and how it may affect their cash flow. Consider securing fixed-rate loans whenever possible.
Above all else, with both credit cards and loans, be sure to make your payments on time. Late payments or worse, a default, can damage your credit rating for a long time to come.
So how much risk is too much?
Answering this question takes a good amount of knowledge and perhaps an even greater amount of soul-searching. For any business owner, it's a personal decision based on unique facts and circumstances. Understanding the different types of risk involved can help you consider your options wisely, and then make the decisions that are right for you and your business.

The name scleroderma is derived from the Greek word skleros, which means hard, and derma, which means skin. The most characteristic feature of scleroderma is the build-up of tough scar-like fibrous tissue in the skin. The disease may affect the skin alone (localized scleroderma) or be a systemic disease that involves internal organs.
The disease is classified as localized scleroderma, limited scleroderma and diffuse scleroderma. Localized scleroderma affects the skin and does not involve internal organs; other names for this condition include morphea and linear scleroderma. Systemic sclerosis is sometimes used to refer to the limited and diffuse forms of the disease.
The degree of skin involvement separates limited from diffuse scleroderma. People with limited scleroderma have skin thickening of their limbs but skin on their trunk and above the elbows and knees is spared. Those with diffuse disease have skin involvement of their proximal arms and legs and their trunk.
Scleroderma is a relatively rare disease. It affects women three to five times more frequently than men. Its incidence occurs increasingly with age but its onset is most commonly between the ages of 30 and 50. However, localized scleroderma is more common in children.
The symptoms of scleroderma generally differ depending on the type of scleroderma: localized, limited or diffuse.
The course of localized scleroderma is very slow and it rarely becomes more widespread or causes severe complications. Localized scleroderma takes on two forms:
Morphea (pronounced mor-fee-ah) scleroderma is the form where hard round or oval patches develop on the skin. These patches tend to be white with a reddish area around them. They may occur on your chest, stomach, face, arms, legs or other parts of your body.
With the linear form of localized scleroderma, a line of thickened skin may occur in areas such as your face (often the forehead), arms or legs. This line of hard skin extends deep down into the skin, bones and muscles, and may alter growth of the affected part. This form usually occurs in young people who develop scleroderma.
With the form of scleroderma called limited scleroderma, your skin hardening may be widespread, but not everywhere on your body, and it will not appear on your trunk. Often with this form the lungs, heart and kidneys are not involved, but heartburn from involvement of the esophagus (your swallowing tube) is a common symptom. Limited scleroderma used to be known as CREST syndrome, but most doctors don't use this term anymore as only rare patients have all of the features it represents. CREST stands calcinosis (pronounced cal-si-no-sis), Raynaud's phenomenon (pronounced ray-nodes feh-naw-meh-non), esophageal (pronounced i-sof-ah-jee-ul) dysfunction, sclerodactyly (pronounced scler-o-dac-tul-lee), and telangiectasia (pronounced tell-an-jee-ek-stas-ee-ah). One or more of these conditions can also occur in other forms of scleroderma.
Calcinosis is the name given to the condition where small white chalky lumps made up of calcium form under the skin. These lumps often form around the fingers but can occur anywhere in the body. They can rupture through the skin and cause a chalky white material to ooze out. Eating too much calcium does not cause these lumps.
Raynaud's phenomenon is caused by a spasm or narrowing of the blood vessels in your limbs. Exposure to the cold or emotional stress can trigger such spasms. The resulting reduction in blood flow causes your fingers and toes to become blue or white in colour. If the condition is severe you may also have pain and numbness in the affected areas. Smoking aggravates this condition. Raynaud's phenomenon occurs with many other medical problems apart from scleroderma.
Esophageal dysfunction results when scleroderma affects the esophagus (pronounced i-sof-a-gus).Food is carried from your mouth down your esophagus to your stomach.In your esophagus a rhythmic muscle action moves the food along. With scleroderma your esophagus can become less mobile and the muscle action can diminish. Over time, the muscle may be replaced by scar tissue. This can result in difficulty swallowing. You might also get heartburn more often as the acid from the stomach is able to flood upwards into the esophagus where it can cause burning. Some people also experience a feeling of bloating when eating and a desire to vomit after eating.
The word sclerodactyly means 'hardness of the digits.' With this condition the skin of your fingers may become dry, coarse-textured or feel 'woody.' Hair may vanish from your hands, the creases on them may disappear, and they may look shiny. You may also have difficulty moving your fingers and they may tighten into a bent position.
Telangiectasia is a condition where small red spots appear on the surface of the skin. These are due to enlarged (damaged) blood vessels. They commonly occur on the fingers, palms, face, lips and tongue.
A sixth, but less common symptom is also associated with limited scleroderma. You could develop bowel dysfunction, which leads to an inability to absorb nutrients from food, an overgrowth of bacteria in your bowel, weight loss and diarrhea or constipation. Bowel dysfunction occurs when the muscles of your intestine weaken and are replaced by scar tissue, as can happen with your esophagus.
If you have diffuse scleroderma , the other form of systemic scleroderis, you will probably experience widespread thickening of the skin on your arms, legs, face, chest and stomach. These skin changes can occur quite rapidly, though progress of this form of the disease varies widely from person to person. In addition to the skin changes, other areas are frequently involved: lungs, kidneys, heart, blood vessels, bowel, esophagus, joints, and connective tissues such as tendons and ligaments. Diffuse scleroderma can become very severe -- even life threatening. It may overlap with other autoimmune diseases, including lupus (pronounced loo-pus) and polymyositis (pronounced pol-ee-my-o-site-iss). If this occurs the disorder is then referred to as mixed connective tissue disease.
Heart and lung problems may result from diffuse scleroderma. Problems with your heart could include a slowing of your heart rate or changes in its rhythmic pattern. High blood pressure on the right side of the heart can occur (called pulmonary artery hypertension); this can be difficult to detect early so you're your doctor will want you to have annual ultrasounds of your heart. If your lungs are involved, they will lose their ability to function efficiently. Symptoms of heart or lung involvement may include shortness of breath, coughing, chest pain and irregular beating of the heart.
If your kidneys are affected by scleroderma blood flow to them may be restricted. This can produce high blood pressure and kidney failure and is a serious problem requiring urgent treatment. Symptoms could include severe headache, shortness of breath, vision problems, chest pain and mental confusion.
The glands and organs that produce fluid can also be affected. Dry eyes, mouth or vagina may indicate that you have a condition called Sjögren's (pronounced show-grens) syndrome, which may accompany scleroderma. Your eyes may become dry if the glands that produce tears, the lacrimal glands, fail. The salivary glands in your mouth can also fail. In a woman with diffuse scleroderma the cells that normally keep her vagina moist may fail and the area can become abnormally dry.
The joints are not usually the primary area of involvement in scleroderma, but inflammation of the joints can occur as part of the disease. The skin, when involved with thickening and tightness, also lead to stiffness and reduced motion of the joints in the affected areas.
It appears that scleroderma begins with being born with the genetic potential to develop the disease. Something then triggers the immune system, which normally protects the body from germs, viruses, and bacteria to generate antibodies that attack healthy tissue in different parts of the body. This response produces inflammation and an overproduction of collagen - the tough fibrous protein that helps construct connective tissues, such as tendons, bones, and ligaments as well as scar tissue. This excess collagen is deposited in the skin and body organs. What triggers this process is unknown. Scleroderma may be associated with exposure to, and high build-up in the body of, certain chemicals or heavy metals.
At this time there is no cure for scleroderma. Therefore treatment is designed to control the symptoms. Establishing the correct diagnosis is important because something can be done to manage most forms of arthritis and most therapies work best when started early in the disease.
Diagnosis may be difficult as there is no specific test that confirms scleroderma is present. Your doctor will probably perform a physical examination and order other tests such as x-rays and blood tests.
If skin changes are already present the diagnosis may be simple and routine. In other cases where scleroderma is suspected, your doctor may wish to do a skin biopsy, which involves removing a small piece of skin to be analyzed in a laboratory. Your doctor may feel your skin, checking for thickened and hardened areas, and may also press tendons and joints to detect crackling or grating sensations, which can indicate changes beneath the skin. A major clue to diagnosing scleroderma is the symmetrical (happening in the same spot on both sides of the body) hardening and thickening of the skin in areas on the fingers and toes. By looking at your fingernails underneath a microscope, your doctor may also be able to detect changes in your blood vessels that are characteristic of scleroderma and mixed connective tissue disease.
There are a wide variety of other tests possible, which may be done based on the organs that are involved. For example, if you're having difficulty swallowing your doctor may order a special X-ray of the esophagus.
If you are diagnosed as having scleroderma, the goal of your treatment plan will be to bring the symptoms and disease under control. Treatment plans are based on the type and severity of symptoms, and are individualized to meet each person's needs. Your active involvement in developing your prescribed treatment plan is essential.
If you have scleroderma you should do things to care for your skin. Using a humidifier in your house during winter months will help prevent the air, and your skin from becoming too dry. Topical creams can be used to prevent your skin from drying out. Light mineral oil, petroleum jelly, and cocoa butter are moisturizers that work well. It may also be necessary for you to limit the frequency of bathing to preserve your natural skin oils.
Try to protect areas of skin calcification from pressure and abrasion. In these hardened areas the skin can more easily break down and get infected. Keep areas of skin that may have opened very clean. Aggressive treatment of infections, should they occur, is important.
Another goal of skin protection is to maintain good circulation. By wearing gloves and warm socks in cold weather, your skin is protected from cold air, which reduces the risk of the blood vessels shrinking (vasospasm). If reaching into the freezer for food triggers Raynaud's phenomenon try wearing gloves or oven mitts during this activity. If you have the symptoms of Raynaud's phenomenon and smoke, stop smoking. Smoking triggers vasospasms in your whole body and will worsen the symptoms.
By carefully and adequately chewing your food you can minimize your difficulty swallowing. Drinking fluids with food will assist if the mouth is dry. There are some medications that can assist in stimulating the muscle action of the esophagus. If your esophagus has narrowed, it is possible to have it periodically stretched.
Raising the head of your bed, and not lying down right after meals can help you minimize acid coming back up into your esophagus. Eating smaller meals more frequently will also help.
If you have the symptoms of Sjögren's Syndrome, there are a variety of lubricants you can use to make up for the lack of secretions. For example, artificial tears can be used as drops in your eyes. There are also mouthwashes and sprays available to increase the moisture in your mouth.
Where dryness of the mouth is pronounced, it is recommended that you have regular dental checks as there may be less flushing of the teeth than is usual. This can lead to increased tooth decay.
There are different types of exercises:
Always consult your doctor before beginning an exercise program.
Protecting your joints means using them in ways that avoid excess stress. Benefits include less pain and greater ease in doing tasks. Three main techniques to protect your joints are:
Pacing, by alternating heavy or repeated tasks with easier tasks or breaks, reduces the stress on painful joints and allows weakened muscles to rest.
Positioning joints wisely helps you use them in ways that avoid extra stress. Use larger, stronger joints to carry loads. For example, use a shoulder bag instead of a hand-held one. Also, avoid keeping the same position for a long period of time.
Using helpful devices, such as canes, luggage carts, grocery carts and reaching aids, can help make daily tasks easier. Small appliances such as microwaves, food processors and bread makers can be useful in the kitchen. Using grab bars and shower seats in the bathroom can help you to conserve energy and avoid falls.
Developing good relaxation and coping skills can give you a greater feeling of control over your arthritis and a more positive outlook.
Where lack of blood circulation is a marked problem with scleroderma, surgical sympathectomy is sometimes done. During this procedure the nerves in the spine that causes spasms in the blood vessels are divided to lessen the chance of future spasms.
The course of scleroderma varies widely from person to person. Those forms of scleroderma that involve major organs, such as the heart and kidney, are more severe and can possibly lead to death. The five-year survival rate of people diagnosed with severe scleroderma is 80-85%. For people with a form of the disease that affects primarily the skin, without major organ involvement, the long-term outlook is more favourable.

UPDATE: Details on how to file a claim for the Hertz PlatePass Class Action Settlement are up!
Hertz Corporation has agreed to pay $11 million to settle a class action lawsuit accusing the rental car agency of conspiring with an electronic toll company to charge customers excessive fees.
In a joint motion filed May 30, 2013, Hertz, American Solutions Inc. and the plaintiffs asked the court to preliminarily approve the proposed class action lawsuit settlement, saying it finally puts an end to years of "highly contentious" litigation.
"Since the first case was filed in late 2009, defendants have filed multiple motions to dismiss, both sides have deposed the others' witnesses in various states, [and] the settlement negotiations were fractious." the motion said. "The court can and should readily find that the proposed settlement is the result of extensive discovery and informed, arm's-length negotiations in a truly adversarial litigation."
The defendants and plaintiffs also requested conditional certification of a nationwide class of Hertz customers who rented cars containing ATS' PlatePass between July 1, 2006 and March 31, 2010 and incurred extra, hidden charges.
Plaintiffs in the Hertz class action lawsuit accused the defendants of failing to inform Hertz customers that they are required to pay a service fee for each day the rent a Hertz car containing a PlatePass, even when they do not use it. One of the plaintiffs claims she was charged an additional $77.75 for administrative fees and toll usage that wasn't clearly explained in her rental agreement.
"The Hertz rental contract only makes an oblique reference to transmitting billing information for tolls and traffic violations to ATS. In the context of what really occurs, this reference is misleading," the class action lawsuit said.
Under the proposed $11 million Hertz PlatePass settlement, Class Members who submit Claim Forms will receive a refund of the improper charges they paid. Details on how to file a claim for the Hertz PlatePass settlement can be found our Open Class Action Lawsuits section.
The Hertz PlatePass Class Action Lawsuit Settlement case is Doherty et al. v. The Hertz Corp. et al., Case No. 10-cv-00359, in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey.
The plaintiffs are represented by Cohen Placitella & Roth PC, Emanuel & Dunn PLLC, Farmer Jaffe Weissing Edwards Fistos & Lehrman PL.

Patent 'Trolls': Rent-Seeking Parasites or Innovation-Facilitating Middlemen?
Shawn P. Miller
Stanford Law School
April 26, 2010
Non-practicing entities (NPEs), a.k.a. patent "trolls", have been disparaged as wasteful rent-seekers who assert patents that are credible as litigation weapons but weak in innovative value. Others, however, view NPEs as beneficial middlemen between capital-constrained inventors and technology producers. In this paper I analyze the characteristics of NPE-litigated patents and NPE litigation opponents. I find evidence that supports both the negative and positive view of NPEs: NPEs do litigate broader patents in complex technologies consistent with the hold-up theory of NPE patent litigation. However, consistent with the view they are beneficial middlemen, NPEs are more likely than practicing firms to assert patents originally obtained by individuals or foreign inventors.

This is an excellent basic that is flattering for any body type. I have a total of 6 of them (3 of them I bought many years ago) and recently purchased 3 more. I have a 30D chest and 25-26" waist and get XS. The length is to my mid-hip and it is loose but not so loose that it looks sloppy. It is extremely comfortable and even after washing many times, they retain their colors. I hope this gets made in a few more colors, like deep pink, gold or orange. Anyway, this is a must have for anyone, especially in the summer time!

I love these! I wear a size medium because I like my t-shirts a little loose. These are the most flattering v-neck t-shirts I have ever found. They are also durable and comfortable. Only downside is they are a little long on women, but I still think these are the best v-necks around.
by Charlotte

The best V neck t-shirt out there. I am 5'6, 34A, UK size 8 and I got this t-shirt in an XS.
I wanted a slightly more baggy/manly fit rather than fitted, so was skeptical about ordering a size down but it turned out perfect for me, ever so slightly baggy but not massive or over-sized.
I got this tee in Asphalt, but I will definitely be ordering more in Slate, Purple, Red, Black and White etc. The color selection is great ! Something for everyone.
I love the "deep V" neckline, it is pretty much perfect depth, sexy but still modest and non revealing. I wouldn't regard it as very deep on me, therefore I would definitely order this V neck over the regular V neck.
Its a shame they are �20 each as if they were cheaper I would be buying them much sooner.

I'm a size 14, hour glass shape, 36DD bust. Got this shirt in a L based on the size chart(L says 40-42" bust, my bust is 41") and it's slightly baggy all over, particularly in the shoulders. It's not a bad look, but it can be hard for someone with a full figure to pull it off without looking sloppy, and sadly I don't feel I'm able to pull it off. Going to return for an M and hope the overall fit is better. It's also very long, coming from someone with a long torso who's relatively tall for a girl. If you don't have a long torso or are shorter/average height, just be aware this is probably going to come down past your butt. If you're tall, you'll love it. Overall the fabric is soft and thicker than I expected, very nice quality, and I'd recommend it if you can get the right fit.

Just an update, I received the shirts in M today and they all fit wonderfully. If you want a more fitted look, size down from the size chart. Following the size chart will give you a more relaxed/slouchy look. Love the length, and again, the quality is great.

I got really lucky with these shirts and got them during a sale. They are fantastic. I have six of them. They are all super soft, true to size, and have bright, rich colors. I'm a kinda big girl, chubby with a 36DDD chest and a size large fits just right after running them through the washing and dryer. They are soft and wash well. I know they're going to last a while. I highly recommend them.

If you want it to fit you a little on the loose side, get a medium. I am 5'5 and 140lbs. and got a small. It fits a little bit loose, but still clings to my body a bit. I love this t-shirt though! It's really flattering. Good luck!
I would go with the small if you want it to fit like the picture. I'm 5'5 135 and S fits like a charm even after a trip thru the wash and dryer.
I'm 5'3" 160lbs and small fits perfectly.

LOVE the fit of this shirt! This and the tri-blend deep V are my go-to tees for everyday and working out. For girls (at least small-chested girls like me) I recommend going two sizes down from your normal AA ladies' size for a fit that is slightly loose but not baggy.
I NEED THIS IN LIME!!! Also, would be great in a multi-pack! Do it, AA.

I am a 32A and 25" waist. I bought a small (in white)because I wanted a lower neckline and longer lenght to it. I'm extremely satisfied with the fit (while it is on the baggy-er side look) The white isn't too sheer to where bras show through or peek out. I'm getting it next in black, creme and truffle. This is what AA is so good at... TEES!

bought a medium and love it. unfortunately, the shirt does not pass the bend over test and you can see all the way down to my belly button. I still love the look, colors, and feel of the shirts. Wish there was a middle ground on the V-neck cut length or a different neck shirt that call in all these lovely colors.

I have this one in apricot, and it would be my favourite t-shirt ever if it weren't for the sizing. When I bought this I didn't realise it was unisex, so I got the S (I'm 5'6", 110 lbs., 32C). It fits more like women's M or bigger. This wouldn't be a problem otherwise, as I like my tees oversize, but the v-neck plunges so low it slips off my shoulders or exposes my bra if I don't keep yanking it up. Mine hasn't shrunk in the washing, either.
I'd love to get this in more colours, but I just haven't decided whether to go for XS or XXS - I don't like a fitted look in a t-shirt, but the neckline worries me...

I'm quite large on top - 45 inches - and I was told after I ordered that AA usually runs quite small, so I was really surprised when the XL was loose on me! The fabric is so soft, like a really old favourite t-shirt; I should have ordered more, love it!

My favorite summer tee! I wear with skinny jeans, shorts, or tucked into a skirt. Great basic colors, easy to accessorize, length is perfect. I'm a female 5'8 140 & I wear the small so they run kind of big but shrink a tiny bit in the dryer.

I have about 9 of these shirts.. love them!
However, they run big for certain colors! I'm 5'3", avg build, and a size S feels like a M for some of the brighter colors (kelly green, raspberry, yellow, forest green, and baby blue), the v is deeper, and my boobies are all hanging out.
And they don't shrink in the wash.
But other than that, love em love em love em!

For years, Toyota has stood out from other major automakers for moving its product off dealer lots without resorting to costly incentives and interest rate deals. Amid historically bleak market conditions, Toyota now stands out simply for being able to offer such programs.
Toyota is launching an advertising blitz to promote zero percent financing on eleven of its vehicles. Given the ongoing credit crunch, the move is a strong testament to Toyota's size and wealth. Toyota Financial is one of only two auto lenders with a AAA rating.
Like almost every other automaker, Toyota saw a sharp decline in profits and sales last month, as potential customers have been squeezed by high gas prices and difficulties getting credit. The company hopes that its aggressive campaign will shore up consumer confidence and draw them back into dealers. It has boosted its ad spending to promote the deal, which it calls "Saved by Zero."
The special financing will be available on the Matrix, Corolla, Camry, RAV4, Highlander, FJ Cruiser, 4Runner, Sequoia, Sienna, Tacoma and Tundra. The deal does not cover any Lexus, Scion or hybrid models.

Has anyone been able to get numbers out of the Roche report that gives Q4 sales for Erivedge? For Curis their royalties last year were; Q1 $270K, Q2 $250K, and Q3 $450K. These are the numbers I got from the quarterly reports via Curis statements.
Chinese Hamsters
Again thanks for the great work Chinese Hamsters. This should finally become official within a matter of days now.
Sentiment: Buy
Earnings will probably not bail you out of this trade. Do you really think this is good enough for the short-sighted market? Think about the fact that the info is already known anyway. If you are not here for the long term you could be in for more pain than u can handle. This stock is the most unpredictable biotech I have ever seen and I have own it for 10 years.
After further reading on the details of the Roche/Genetech collaboration and also looking at the sponsors of the various pancreatic trials ongoing it looks like Roche/Genetech has an exclusive agreement for any drug developed from the Hedgehog pathway inhibitor. So the same royalty structure would apply here as well. Thinking about picking up a few more shares at this price and stash them away for a few years while sales mature on more clinical data on pancreatic shows the potential there.
It seemed like one of the only down sides to the price at this level was issuance of more stock diluting the stock and thus the price, but that is more or less behind us now as well.
Chinese Hamsters
Looking at the Roche reports I think I have an estimate of Q4 sales. For the year 2012 Roche reported total Erivedge sales of $29 CHF, so that is $31.9 million. For the 1st half of 2012 the total Erivedge sales were $11 million. From Q# Curis report they have $450K in royalties for Erivedge, so that had to be on sales of $9 million for Q3 (using 5% royalty). So knowing what half of 2012 was from Roche and calculating Q3 from Curis we should get about $20 million through the end of Q3. So we should have sales of $11.9 million for Q4, leaving Curis with a royalty of $595K for Q4. That does not sound that impressive for quarter over quarter growth, but it is about 32%.
We should see approval in the EU any time now and that would nearly double the market for Erivedge. That is just the EU. I believe Chugai has Asia and I don't know where that stands at present in terms of filing.
Erivedge is going to be a slow grind towards blockbuster status, but the potential is certainly there. If they expand their market to operable BCC that will expand the label tremendously. There is also some very promising data coming from the pancreatic cancer trials, there are a total of 7 of these ongoing. An approval in that indication would be pretty amazing. I do not believe Curis is partnered with anyone for the pancreatic cancer indications either.
Chinese Hamsters
Pretty good detective work. If you're correct that should give the price a nice boost on monday, as a 33% increase in sales over the prior quarter would be very solid growth.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Pretty smart question considering that I expect earnings for Curis to be reported early monday morning, and from a forward-looking perspective, how the market will react will likely depend on whether drug sales of its new medicine are up.
I was reading Roche's report this AM and didn't find mention of Erivedge on it. I don't believe they supply a breakdown of sales from all of their different drugs, but I'll scour the site some more all the same.

UPDATE 29/08/14: The store responsible for yesterday's tweets has apologised for "confusion" over the alleged November date, stating that it does "not have a confirmed date" for GTA 5 on PS4 and Xbox One.
"We just want to clear the air...we do not have a confirmed date for #GTAV at this moment in time. As soon as we do we will communicate it as a company, through our website, newsletter and social media websites. We apologise to all #GTAV fans for the confusion with this.
"As a store within the GAME company, it is not our responsibility to tweet provisional game release dates. We cannot apologise enough."
Rockstar has yet to return VideoGamer.com's request for comment.
ORIGINAL STORY: The PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of Grand Theft Auto 5 have a "provisional release date" of November 1, according to a tweet from GAME.
GAME's Croydon store teased the date in a pair of tweets earlier this afternoon, saying that it had "good news for you #PS4 and #XboxOne players".
We have good news for you #PS4 and #XboxOne players...GTA 5 has a provisional release date. Want to know when it is? :-p I might tell ya ;-)— GAME Croydon (@GAMECroydon) August 28, 2014
@VG_Dave November 1st :-) how exciting! If you haven't pre-ordered now is the time! This one will fly out of the shop before I know it!— GAME Croydon (@GAMECroydon) August 28, 2014
Given that November 1 is a Saturday the date may be inaccurate. However, it offers further hints that a November release could be on the cards for Rockstar's next-gen re-release.
Officially, GTA 5 is still on track for release on PS4, Xbox One and PC this autumn.
VideoGamer.com has contacted Rockstar for comment.

Vicky and Cherita Andrews
Vicky Andrews' Biggest Loser 9 Journey
Vicky created the blue team with her mom Cherita Andrews, a 50-year-old homemaker from Houston who needed the opportunity as much as her daughter did. However, that opportunity would be fleeting, as the two, like the other contestants, were met with a challenge to cycle 26.2 miles moments after arriving at the ranch. The game twist was the two teams who finished last would be sent home immediately. Unfortunately, that fate landed on Vicky and Cherita.Next Prev Slide 2 / 7

The Oregon Department of Corrections really wants your help finding an inmate.
He didn't escape, exactly.
Inmate Stephen Jamaal Reed [pictured] was accidentally released from a Multnomah County jail on Monday, July 23. Reed is an Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC) inmate housed at Oregon State Penitentiary, but was being temporarily held since Friday, July 20, at a Multnomah County jail to appear in court for pending charges.
The release notes Reed, who'd been booked on cocaine possession, was "accidentally" released on Monday. Today is Wednesday.
So why the delay in announcing the incident?
An anonymous caller informed DOC officials early Wednesday morning that Reed had been released.
The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office booking information log shows Reed was released from county custody on Monday, for "Time Served on a Sentence."
The county log also says Reed is 23, but the state's information says otherwise:
Inmate Reed is African American, 6'2" tall, 225 pounds with black hair and brown eyes. He is 22 years old. Reed entered DOC custody on May 2, 2012, on one count of possession of cocaine and one count of delivering heroin out of Multnomah County. His earliest release date is June 8, 2013. Anyone with information about inmate Reed's whereabouts is asked to call Oregon State Police at 1-800-452-7888.
WW has left messages with a Sheriff's Office spokesman asking for more details on what happened in this case. We'll update this post when we get an answer.
Update July 26: No word from MCSO, but Reed has reportedly turned himself in.

Indeed a charming and fairly spacious appartement. Also, the large balcony - which is not on the pictures - is wonderful. Since the apt. is on the 6th floor you get much sun there, from early in the morning. We had breakfast on the terrace every day!
We didn't meet George personally, but he had arranged for someone else to hand over the keys and was always available by mail or phone. When we missed a blanket and had a problem with the internet connection, it was solved within a day.
Sehr netter Kontakt, schöne Lage in Piräus. sehr ruhig und trotzdem zentral gelegen. Die Wohnung hat etwas Besonderes. Es war alles für das alltägliche Leben vorhanden. Auch der Abholservice vom Flughafen war super.
Wir würden wiederkommen.
Un charmant appartement ! Proche du port de pireé!
Ne pas demander de transfert à George trop de temps d attente à l aéroport pour avoir une voiture .
très joli logement situé au Pirée. Spacieux, clair, calme et bien meublé, avec goût. nous étions deux femmes et trois enfants et tout etait parfait.
Beaucoup de restaurants à proximité, une jolie marina. À recommander
Logement conforme à la description, situé à 20mn à pied de la station de métro Piaeus, qui peut vous amener à Athènes Centre pour 4€ (pour la journée complète)., ou bien à l'aéroport pour 14€ pour 2 personnes en 80mn.
L'appartement est situé au 6èeme étage d'un immeuble assez calme, équipé d'une terrasse avec vue sur les toits. Un supermarché Carrefour est à 200m, et pas mal de petits commerces sont disponibles à proximité.
Très bonne connexion internet, mais les programmes TV n'étaient pas disponibles.
Nous n'avons pas eu le plaisir de rencontrer Georges avec qui j'ai eu des échanges par mails très courtois.
Amazing clean and cozy apartment with everything you need. great and save area, we really enjoyed the stay and can warmly recommend George as a host ;-))
Laura, Kathi, Line and Peter
This apartment is located in a very nice area, which is fast reachable from historical places of Athens, mainly by taxi (5-10 minutes by car from Acropolis area). The owner of an apartment was very nice: he organized the transportation for both ways, from and to the airport.
The flat was very clean and also had everything necessary for a good stay: equipped kitchen (coffee machine, fridge, kettle, oven, microwave oven and etc.), big balcony with panoramic view of Athens and small cozy table for having an early breakfast or a late dinner outside. Rooms had very comfortable beds and furniture to place all belongs. From one bedroom it was possible to even see the night view of Acropolis. Even though it was necessary to turn ON the water heating to take a shower, water from a tap was still very warm without it, therefore it was never used during the stay. It was a pleasure to spend 5 days in the city of Athens accommodating in George's Flat . I recommend you to spend your time in Athens staying in this apartment.
George was an excellent house manager, replied quickly and in detail for each request. The house is very nice, quite and clean, very bright with a fantastic view on Athens's harbour and more. Everything worked well. Pireaus area is not so comfortable to get beaches and Acropoli (it took about 45/55 minutes) but you can easily get buses and the metro stop is about 10' far away.
