On 26.09.2006 12:22, CET - what odd quirk of fate caused Neil to
generate the following:? :
>Any help on the following issues would be appreciated. There are several
>different symptons which may or may not be related but all happened at the
>same time.
>After an extended period of it working I opened firefox one day (on an xp
>pro machine) to find the following:
>a) All my favourites folders had disappeared
>b) F.F was now opening in a reduced (ie not full screen) window
>c)The search bar in the top right ceased to function
>d)The function of highlighting a text, right clicking and searching the web
>ceased to function (although the option still appeared)
>Initially I put back in some of my old favourites but then after a while the

>reninstalled it was exactly the same, although I have no idea where it is
>saving this information.
>As it stands I have now added a new Google search bar below the address line
>but the search bar to the right of the address bar doesn't work and won't
>let me add new engines from the FF plugin page, and it still opens in as
>reduced window.
>Any suggestions on how to rectify these problems gratefully received.
>BTW I checked, there is only one profile so it's not that, and the xpinstall
>config stetting is enabled.
firstly - STOP in- and uninstalling! Your problem (most likely) lies
with the profile, and that is *not* in the installation folder!
click the Windows Start button
click Run
enter Firefox.exe -p into the text field (note: there is a SPACE
between the exe and -p)
click OK
this will open your profile manager... look to see if there are more
than one profiles listed
if "yes", mark a different profile and open FF
see if your FF works properly!
If not, let us know *exactly* what you did and what you saw (lists,
reports, errors etc.... anything that shows)
If it works, also let us know...

What happens to a dream deferred? poet Langston Hughes asks in his powerful poem written in the 1920s.
Amanda Winn also knows about a dream deferred.
Diagnosed with Stage 4 Hodgkin Lymphoma at 22, her dream is a project born out of her own pain ... and the passion to "change the world that children with cancer live in," as she put it, when we first connected in 2012. She had been out of treatment more than a year.
For the woman who today is an architect, that means a Children's Healing Center.
She envisions the non-profit center as a special place for children whose cancer treatment has left them susceptible to infection and robbed them of playing in the normal, germ-infested kid world. It will be a place where they can break out of their isolation and play in a safe, healthy place all their own. For details, visit childrenshealingcenter.org.
When we first talked about it in 2013, the healthy 25-year-old already had been working on it for three years. She talked ruefully about "my mix of confidence and naiveness, when I put together a plan and thought I could get donations and open in a year."
Given the necessary fundraising success, she hopes for a 2014 opening, but as she said last year, "I've put together probably 20 timetables."
While the bricks and mortar are important and the renderings of the space are beautiful ... "I've realized there are a lot of things that need to happen to make this a success. With all the effort from me and our talented team, I believe we can do it. Persistence and intentionality align with hope."
They do not align with inaction.
While "we're still working and planning to renovate our own space," this fall, she and her board, including her oncologist, Dr. Beth Kurt, "decided we want to bring what we can to families now."
The all-volunteer group is partnering with community businesses and organizations to offer activities each month for about a dozen families. Those families also provide input on programming and test ideas before they become part of the building plan.
"We definitely want to be smart and build the momentum -- we're not waiting."
Neither of us is much on waiting.
Maybe it's our innate Type-A tendencies, but I think it has a lot to do with our time in CancerLand: It heightens our sense of "do it now." We've learned that later doesn't come for everybody.
"I want what we're doing now to be living the love we will give at the center," Winn says, "not just planning."
Winn refers to Bob Goff, author of ""Love Does: Discover a Secretly Incredible Life in an Ordinary World." In the stories he shares about how he lives love, Winn explains, there's always action involved: Programs either work or they don't: Love always works.
Goff, an attorney who founded Restore International, a nonprofit human rights organization, will be speaking at Calvin College's annual January Series on Jan. 10.
Winn has learned that always thinking big sometimes gets in the way.
"Too often we think that to do something that makes a difference, it has to be big and reach a lot of people. Sometimes that stifles us from doing anything."
Part of me likes to think Hughes would understand Winn's dream: Hughes went through prostate cancer before his death May 22, 1967.

In response to the financial crisis, age-old anti-Semitic stereotypes about Jews or the "Zionists" controlling world events, governments and finances are emerging in the Arab and Muslim world.
Newspaper columnists, editorial cartoonists, political leaders, economists and others in the Arab world have accused Jews or Zionists of creating and benefiting from the crisis. Some of the articles are accompanied by vicious anti-Semitic cartoons.The following is a snapshot of reaction in the Arab/Muslim that has emerged as a result of the ongoing financial crisis as compiled by ADL:
• In a mid-October statement, Ismail Haniyeh, the leader of Hamas, the Palestinian terrorist organization that now governs the Gaza Strip, claimed that the global financial crisis was God's way of punishing the United States for supporting Israel and for occupying Iraq and Afghanistan. He reportedly stated, "We see it as God's punishment for the criminals…They deprived our people of money and now God has deprived them of money."
• Earlier in October, Fawzi Barhum, a spokesman for Hamas, blamed the "Jewish lobby" for the financial crisis. He alleged that the crisis was the result of "bad administrative and financial management and a bad banking system put into place and controlled by the Jewish lobby. Barhum added that [the Jewish lobby] "controls the U.S. elections and defines the foreign policy of any new administration in a manner that allows it to retain control of the American government and economy."
• The Syrian economist Muhammad Sharif Mazloum made the following statements in an interview airing on Al-Kawthar TV on October 10, 2008 (Translation provided by MEMRI):
"The dollar was severed from gold, and became subjected to the whims and schemes of the Zionist lobby, whose goal was, and still is, to take control of the world's gold, which is deposited in Swiss banks or in the central banks of countries as gold reserves for their banknotes, as well as to enslave the peoples and then to impoverish them. With the American political and economic pressure on governments around the world to sever their currencies from the gold standard, the crisis – or the Zionist economic war against the peoples of the world – began.
"The economic research that we conducted in 1989 revealed the economic war planned by the Zionists even before 1944, when they promised the US government to back the US dollar with their gold. Since the America government does not have its own federal banks, it agreed to sign the Bretton Woods agreement, which gave an ounce of gold for every $35 that reached the Federal Reserve Bank, and its branches throughout America, which are owned by the Ashkenazi Jews.
"In the 1960s, President John Kennedy decided to establish governmental banks to protect the dollar, in which the gold that was pouring into America would be deposited. What became of Kennedy? He was killed by the Zionist lobby. This is a fact that nobody is aware of – but a fact it is. That was the reason Kennedy was killed.
"Global Jewry is trying to prepare the ground for a strong currency. What would that strong currency be? People have no confidence in the euro, and they don't keep gold. This strong currency is what [Israel] is preparing now, and even issued in Gaza – the gold Jewish shekel."
• Khalid Amayreh, a Palestinian journalist from Hebron, a city in the West Bank, posted an article to his Web site arguing that support of Israel will be the reason for the ultimate downfall of the "American empire." He wrote, "It is well known that Israel, through the numerous Zionist lobbies and pressure groups, more or less controls America's politics, media and financial institutions…. But America doesn't lack the brain power to know the facts and find out the truth about the umbilical connection between the Israeli factor and the ravaging financial crisis now facing the US… I am afraid there will be more bad news in this regard if America doesn't reclaim its liberty from the Zionist Rober [sic] Barons who have come to tightly control the American financial establishment." This article was picked up by many other blogs, Web sites, and listserves.

About SASE
Founded in 1989, the Society for the Advancement of Socio-Economics (SASE) is an international, inter-disciplinary organization with members in over 50 countries on five continents. The academic disciplines represented in SASE include economics, sociology, political science, management, psychology, law, history, and philosophy. The membership of SASE also includes business people and policy makers in government and international organizations.
SASE is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization organized under US law domiciled in Washington, DC.
What is Socio-Economics?
As an emerging meta-discipline, socio-economics begins with the assumption that economics is not a self-contained system, but is embedded in society, polity, and culture. Socio-economics regards competition as a subsystem encapsulated within a societal context that contains values, power relations, and social networks. The societal context both enables and constrains competition. Socio-economics assumes that interests are not necessarily or automatically complementary and harmonious, and that societal sources of order are necessary for markets to function efficiently.
Socio-economics further assumes that individual choices are shaped by values, emotions, social bonds, and moral judgments rather than by narrow self-interest. There is no a priori assumption that people act rationally or that they only pursue self-interest or pleasure.
Methodologically, socio-economics regards inductive studies as co-equal in standing with deductive ones. For example, a study of how firms actually behave has the same basic merit as treating the firm as an analytic concept in a mathematical model. Inductive inputs and deductive derivations are assumed to correct and thus balance each other. Socio-economics is both a positive and a normative science. That is, it openly recognizes its policy relevance and seeks to be self-aware of its normative implications rather than maintain the mantle of an exclusively positive science.
SASE has little interest in criticizing neoclassical economics per se, and seeks to develop alternative approaches that are predictive, exemplary, and morally sound. Socio-economics does not entail a commitment to any one ideological position, but is open to a range of positions that share a view of treating economic behavior as involving the whole person and all facets of society.
Purpose of SASE
The purpose of SASE is
- to advance the understanding of economic behavior across a broad range of academic disciplines;
- to support the intellectual exploration of economic behavior and its policy implications within the context of societal, institutional, historical, philosophical, psychological, and ethical factors; and
- to balance inductive and deductive approaches to the study of economic behavior at both micro and macro levels of analysis.

Recovering Portfolio Default Intensities Implied by CDO Quotes

Columbia University Center for Financial Engineering, Financial Engineering Report No. 2008-01
We propose a stable non-parametric algorithm for the calibration of pricing models for portfolio credit derivatives: given a set of observations of market spreads for CDO tranches, we construct a risk-neutral default intensity process for the portfolio underlying the CDO which matches these observations, by looking for the risk neutral loss process 'closest' to a prior loss process, verifying the calibration constraints. We formalize the problem in terms of minimization of relative entropy with respect to the prior under calibration constraints and use convex duality methods to solve the problem: the dual problem is shown to be an intensity control problem, characterized in terms of a Hamilton-Jacobi system of differential equations, for which we present an analytical solution. Given a set of observed CDO tranche spreads, our method allows to construct an implied intensity process consistent with the observed spreads. We illustrate our method on ITRAXX index data: our results reveal strong evidence for the dependence of loss transitions rates on the past number of defaults, thus offering quantitative evidence for contagion effects in the risk-neutral loss process.

Cheese and Yogurt Quick Bread
I'm always obsessed with finding new and quick recipes. I recently came across a savory sour cream quick bread recipe which looked promising and also allowed me to lighten up the recipe by using Greek strained yogurt instead of sour cream.
This bread is very simple to make. You just need one bowl and you stir everything by hand. It reminded me of making a quick beer bread though there's no beer in this recipe.
The Greek strained yogurt makes the bread very moist and also reduces the calories and fat content.
Overall, I liked this bread but didn't love it. I was hoping for a texture more like a yeast bread, and this one isn't. I might try the sour cream version next time and see if it is different.
Cheese and Yogurt Quick Bread
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 1/4 cups milk
3/4 cup plain, nonfat Greek strained yogurt
3 Tbsp. butter, melted
1 large egg
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray an 9- x 5-inch loaf pan with PAM spray or grease pan with oil/butter.
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Stir in the grated cheese. Add in the milk, yogurt, melted butter and egg. Stir until everything is combined but don't overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake for 45-55 minutes, until the loaf is golden and knife inserted comes out clean. Let bread finish cooling in pan before serving.

Why I moved from CA to TX to set up my homestead
For example, suppose North Korea launches an ICBM into the high atmosphere over North America and unleashes an EMP weapon that destroys nearly all electronics; this could theoretically be followed by a naval invasion of forces from Red China and North Korea, both of which suffer from too many young males that can hardly be fed and might as well be thrown at some enemy nation as cannon fodder. These forces would plow right through Southern California, with all its anti-gun laws and totally unprepared populations.
If some enemy force was foolish enough to try to enter Texas, they would be obliterated by a mass of Texas farmers, ranchers, National Guardsmen, law enforcement officers and ex-military men who are all locked and loaded to the hilt. That's where I feel safest, in the midst of the best-armed and most well-skilled riflemen in the country, most of which are upstanding, community-minded citizens who defend life and liberty. Texas is a fortress of determined men and women who will not, under any circumstances, willfully surrender their freedoms or their Bill of Rights.
That's why people who don't own guns dial 911 -- because they want men who DO own guns to arrive as quickly as possible and solve their problem.

GEMS Data System - Growth and Enhancement of Montana StudentsTuesday, August 28, 2012, 3:15 pm
The GEMS Project team continues to build and implement the OPI's new K-12 statewide longitudinal data system – GEMS. In addition to the development work, several members of our project team travelled the state for three weeks this summer and provided end-user training to close to 300 school and district employees. This first round of training was very well received and many are excited about the potential GEMS and its tools provide when doing data analysis and reporting on K-12 education data.The 2nd iteration of GEMS, 'Student Characteristics' is currently undergoing User Acceptance Testing (UAT). This data domain includes information about student characteristics such as enrollment and also presents programs and course offerings by school including general, career and technical, and special education. These new data areas will be added to the warehouse during the month of September and will provide the ability to analyze and query data in conjunction with the already existing 'Student Achievement' domain data.
To view the GEMS public website, go to: http://gems.opi.mt.gov.
In other data system news, the OPI has been awarded a three-year, $4 million grant to partner with the Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education (OCHE) to link postsecondary data with GEMS. With this grant, the State will continue to improve student achievement and provide the ability to identify which programs are effective at improving learning and then be able to see how prepared Montana students are for life after high school.Linking the K-12 education data with the data from the Montana University System (MUS) will allow schools to get a complete picture of whether or not students graduating from their high schools are ready for college. They will be able to analyze which coursework led to successful transitions from high school to higher education as well as which students were not prepared for college to focus in on solutions to help ensure student success. Commissioner of Higher Education Clay Christian stated, "In order to better align outcomes and expectations between Montana's K-12 and higher education systems, it is vital that we develop the data necessary to measure and identify those elements in students' educational experiences that are driving factors in producing successful students, both in high school and college. This grant gives us that opportunity." "This is exciting news for parents and educators," said Superintendent Denise Juneau. "Data allows us to focus on accountability, effectiveness and achievement. Achieving a high school diploma must mean that a student has the preparation necessary to take the next steps in their lives, including being successful in college. Our continued partnership with higher education is critical to meet the needs of the 21st century workforce and move our state forward."

Bah, they so ended it wrong... I was waiting for Grimmjow to get back up... and then the ending theme played.
Weak. When they get off of filler it's gonna be anticlimatic as hell.
So wait a minute, is everyone going to leave Hueco Mundo to go back to school? Interact with the filler characters? Isn't it completely wrong and against the core of the current story for that to happen? Unless Ichigo is having a Halucination that lasts for 30 episodes and it just comes back to the main storyline out of nowhere...
I have no idea how this is going to work ._.

I don't understand. They hollows Grimmjow was traveling with were the hollows that fought in the human world and lost. Isn't it pretty strongly implied in this episode that he ate them. Or maybe something is lost in translation?
It seems that he ate them, but only a part of them...so it wasn't like he was supposed to fully consume them apparently.
On another note, I really can't be bothered with any more damn fillers...I think i'll just keep off bleach until it gets back to the storyline.
Why don't more people read these mangas?
The new fillers (what little we've seen of them, in a tiny, 10-20 second blurb) just seem a bit rushed, more so than the other ones have been. Maybe I was right when I made the decision to just stick to the manga.
wow,what a great dislocation at the beginning,last ep he slashed him near the big red building,now they were in the middle of the desert

I have a difficult choice with who to start in a 14 team standard scoring league. My WR1 is V. Jackson, and the 3 choices for backups are:
Santonio Holmes vs. Tennessee
Ted Ginn vs. Atlanta
Josh Morgan vs. Arizona
I've seen all three ranked similarly to each other in most predictions, was wondering if anyone had any insights or was facing a similar choice.

Judging by last season (which, admittedly, is far from an ideal methodology), Atlanta was a middle-of-the-road pass D, while Tennessee's was quite good. Arizona was bad against #1 receivers, but good against #2 wideouts, and has added McFadden. I lean towards Ginn, but there's a reason they're ranked close to each other.
I think Holmes is the best of that group normally, and I'd be tempted to stick with him this week for that reason. I just don't have enough confidence in our sense of the matchups yet.
I'm not sure it's predictive of anything, but Holmes did have 93 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Titans last year.

Internal biliary fistulas may arise from peptic ulceration, operative trauma or, most commonly, as a result of biliary disease with associated calculi. Of the latter group the most frequently seen is the communication between the gallbladder and the upper small bowel through ulceration of a gallstone into the duodenum; this may result in gallstone ileus. Less commonly fistulas develop between the common bile duct and the duodenum from stones in the duct eroding into the bowel or from the penetration of a peptic ulcer into the common duct.
Uncommon too are the fistulas between the biliary tract and the colon. In 1925 Judd and Burden4 reported 26 cholecystocolic fistulas as part of a series of 153 cases of internal biliary fistula seen at the Mayo Clinic. In one of the 26 the diagnosis had been made preoperatively by barium enema. Bernhard1 reported 36 of 109 internal biliary fistulas

STOCKHOLM — Jhonas Enroth raised his hands in triumph after refusing to let Canada and Jordan Eberle beat him a second time. Lindy Ruff could only watch and prepare for the long flight home without a medal.
Enroth backstopped Sweden to a 3-2 shootout victory over Canada on Thursday in the quarterfinals of the world hockey championships. The Buffalo Sabres goaltender stopped 39 shots in regulation and overtime, then turned aside three of Canada's four breakaway attempts.
"Jhonas is one of the most competitive players I've ever seen," Sweden defenseman Erik Gustafsson said. "He showed that in the shootout. Nerves of steel."
Loui Eriksson and Eberle scored in the three-round shootout to send it sudden death. Fredrik Pettersson ripped a point-blank slap shot past Canada goalie Mike Smith, and Enroth sealed the win by stopping Eberle on his second chance.
Sweden and co-host Finland will meet in the semifinals Saturday. The United States will face surprising Switzerland in the other semi.
Canada, meanwhile, will head home without a medal for the third straight year. Ruff, who coached Enroth in Buffalo for three-plus seasons, was the Canadian bench boss.
"Third period, we weren't on top of them as much as we could be," Ruff said. "Their defending was a lot better."
Canada's Steven Stamkos opened the scoring and had a chance to make it 2-0, but Enroth stopped him on a breakaway. Nicklas Danielsson followed with a pair of power-play goals, and Claude Giroux tied it with 9:10 to play.
"He kept us in the game and played amazing," Gustafsson said of Enroth, who suffered a 3-0 loss to Canada in the preliminary round. "In the second period, if Stamkos scores on the breakaway it's a different game."
Canada sustained another loss when captain Eric Staal suffered a seemingly serious injury on a knee-to-knee hit by Alex Edler. Ruff had no update on the status of Carolina's star.
The United States advanced by routing Alex Ovechkin and Russia, 8-3, in Helsinki. Paul Stastny had two goals and four points as the Russians allowed the most goals in their tournament history. John Gibson, 19, made 31 saves for the Americans.
Switzerland moved to 8-0 with a 2-1 win over Czech Republic, while Finland tripped up Slovakia, 4-3. Buffalo defenseman Andrej Sekera scored for the Slovaks.

E-Commerce Law Report: Harris, et al v. Blockbuster, Inc.
Candidus Dougherty
Rutgers School of Law - Camden
June 28, 2009
E-Commerce Law Reports, Vol. 9, Issue 1, June 2009
On June 3, 2008, Cathryn Elaine Harris, Mario Herrera and Maryam Hosseiny (collectively referred to as plaintiffs) commenced a class action lawsuit against Blockbuster, Inc. ("Blockbuster") in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. The action arises from Blockbuster's alleged violation of the Video Privacy Protection Act by transmitting information regarding its online users' video rentals and purchases to the social networking site, Facebook. The most recent development in the case, now pending before the Northern District of Texas, is an order from the Court denying Blockbuster's motion to compel arbitration.

Geez, talk about being stingy with the points. I guess I was expecting broken records tonight, new personal bests, seasons best, etc...still great skating tho.
I hope that the Shibutanis earn the higher scores they deserve moving on. This is so not clear. How could they earn such a low score? How could they be surpassed by weaver/poje's presentation?
is this Dornbush's punishment?
Would have the Shibs and W/P flipped...Maia and Alex were on tonight and totally rocked it, should have been much closer to V&M.
And all 5 spectators have left the arena. (couldn't help it. sad.)
What did the Shibutani's coaches say to them when the scores were announced that made Maia and Alex put a finger to their lips, Shhhhh."

Marcus Reaches Out to South Africa Central Bank Critics
Gill Marcus chose a speech to a labor union that wants to nationalize the South African central bank she heads to defend its independence and inflation-targeting policy.
Marcus, 62, had to pause several times as hundreds of delegates from the National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa talked and ate while she spoke. That didn't detract from her message at the June 7 presentation in the dining hall of Durban's main conference center. The Reserve Bank will act without "fear or favor" on interest rates, she said.
While her comments didn't persuade the unions, it's her willingness to meet with detractors that's come to characterize Marcus's term since November 2009. Her predecessor, Tito Mboweni, had a decade marked by conflict with labor unions, surprise rate decisions and dominance in communicating policy.
"She has managed to open her hands to those who criticize her," S'Dumo Dlamini, president of the Congress of South African Trade Unions, whose 2 million members include the metalworkers, said in a phone interview from Johannesburg. "She is always open to engagement."
When the metalworkers union picketed outside the central bank's head office in Pretoria in May 2009, Mboweni declined to meet them, drawing criticism from union leaders who called him "arrogant." Marcus was named governor two months later after President Jacob Zuma won power with the backing of labor unions.
Open Communication
Marcus, who wears flowing kaftans and is unmarried, is the first female governor of the 91-year-old central bank. She wasn't available to be interviewed because of work commitments, said her spokesman, Hlengani Mathebula.
"We aren't this black box in Pretoria," Marcus said in a July 4 speech in Johannesburg. "We think it is very important that people better understand the economy and monetary policy decisions. Our society should support our central bank."
In a country where unemployment is at 25.2 percent, Marcus argues that the central bank's role is to keep inflation under control to encourage investment and jobs.
Investors are drawn to her message, pushing the yield on South African's 10-year bond to a record low of 6.79 percent yesterday as inflation slows. Consumer prices rose 5.5 percent in June from a year ago, the statistics office said today.
At the same time, unions say that the Reserve Bank's focus on price stability is undermining job creation and is inappropriate in a country where about a third of the population lives on less than $2 a day.
Limiting Surprises
Besides trying to placate the unions, Marcus has set up regular meetings with political parties, economists, business groups and the media. To improve transparency, she has given her deputies and Monetary Policy Committee members a bigger role in communicating policy.
"She felt it was very important to speak not just to the financial markets but to all stakeholders," Brian Kahn, Marcus's economic adviser and an MPC member, said in an interview from Pretoria. The goal is to "get people to understand not just what the bank does but what it can't do. Central banks are being expected to do everything because governments are failing and economies are remaining weak."
Marcus's approach may be helping to create a more stable policy environment. Of the 16 rate decision meetings she has chaired, only one outcome surprised the majority of economists surveyed by Bloomberg. That compares with five in the previous 16 meetings chaired by Mboweni.
Knightsbridge Spot
The MPC has kept the benchmark interest rate unchanged at 5.5 percent for a record 20 months and will leave the rate on hold tomorrow, according to 16 of the 18 economists surveyed by Bloomberg.
"Investors, by and large, come away impressed both by her and by the way she interacts with her subordinates in such meetings," Peter Attard Montalto, an economist at Nomura Plc in London, said in an e-mail. Marcus often defers questions to her colleagues in a way Mboweni rarely did, Montalto said.
Marcus, who was born in Johannesburg, went into exile in London in 1969 with her parents, who were white anti-apartheid activists. During that time, she completed her bachelor of commerce degree through correspondence at the University of South Africa.
She began honing her skills at public relations as she campaigned for the then-banned African National Congress. While working at her parent's sandwich shop in Knightsbridge, she published documents for the ANC and ran a news-clipping service. In 1982, apartheid security agents detonated a bomb next to her offices, which were vacant at the time.
1994 Vote
She returned to South Africa after a ban on the ANC was lifted in 1990 and helped set up the party's communications unit there.
"Gill played a very, very significant role," Pallo Jordan, an ex-cabinet minister and former head of the ANC's Department of Information and Publicity, said in a phone interview from Cape Town. "She was at the center of the operation in London. The ethos of consultation and drawing in as many players before you make up your mind about important decisions, she brought with her from the ANC days."
Marcus became a lawmaker after the ANC won the first all-race election in 1994, serving as head of parliament's finance committee and eventually becoming deputy finance minister and deputy central bank governor.
After five years of working under Mboweni, she quit to become an academic. In 2005, she was named chairwoman of gold miner Western Areas Ltd. and moved two years later into the same position at Absa Group Ltd., South Africa's biggest consumer bank. It's now controlled by London-based Barclays Plc.
More Relevant?
"My recollection of her is someone who is incredibly thorough, very diligent," said Andre Roux, head of fixed-income investments at Cape Town-based Investec Asset Management, who worked with Marcus at the National Treasury while he was a deputy director-general. "She demanded quality work. You had to deliver."
Marcus hasn't satisfied all her constituents: She is being challenged by labor unions to make the central bank more relevant to the economy's needs. The ANC agreed at a policy conference last month to take more "radical" steps to boost economic growth, without proposing specific measures.
"She is willing to engage, but the point is that engagement, how much does it translate into developmental actions of the bank," Cosatu's Dlamini said. "The Reserve Bank operates in a very conservative space. We continue to be unhappy that the Reserve Bank doesn't seem to adjust and change its approach on issues."
Inflation Fight
Marcus counters that there's only so much central banks can do to fight an unemployment rate that has more to do with a lack of skilled workers and an economy that isn't growing fast enough to absorb new jobseekers. Her position has also been made easier by the fact that her predecessor had already squeezed a lot of inflation out of the economy by the time she took over.
"We did the best we could," Mboweni said in an e-mail. "I still hold the view that central bankers continue to distinguish themselves by avoiding populism. They refuse to be pressured by politicians, the media, intellectuals and markets."
Mboweni pushed inflation down to 5.9 percent from a peak of 13.7 percent in August 2008, an achievement that has helped Marcus keep the policy rate at the lowest level in more than 30 years.
Marcus also has more flexibility in meeting her inflation goal. In 2010, Finance Minister Pravin Gordhan adjusted the wording of the bank's mandate to make it more explicit for policy makers to take into account economic growth and employment when setting interest rates.
Inflationary Pressure
While Marcus has increased transparency of policy making, the central bank still has room to improve communication, such as publishing minutes of its MPC meetings, said Montalto. At least nine of the central banks from the Group of 20 nations, including in the U.S., Brazil, Turkey, India, Mexico and South Korea, release details of policy makers' discussions.
The real test of the governor's ability to placate investors and critics may come when inflationary pressures intensify and she's forced to raise interest rates.
"She has been firm, she has been applying the correct policies," Chris Stals, who was central bank governor from 1989 until 1999, said in a phone interview from Pretoria. "There will be more criticism against her when interest rates have to go up. I always used to say you can't ask the people what interest rates should be, because you don't ask turkeys to vote for Christmas."

The concerns raised by Sturges are quite valid. In our study,1 we did not obtain specific data on meat consumption or meat contact, and, consequently, we cannot be certain that our Seventh-Day Adventist participants did not eat or handle meat. However, assuming that a substantial percentage of the Seventh-Day Adventists were adherent to a strict vegetarian diet (a not unreasonable assumption, as blood samples were collected from church attendees at the close of Sabbath services), we would have expected to see some evidence of decreased seroprevalence if meat consumption was a significant risk factor for Helicobacter pylori infection. We would also have expected to find a greater degree of heterogeneity in the responses of the Seventh-Day Adventists compared with their meateating neighbors (ie, if meat consumption was a risk factor, and there were both meat eaters and strict vegetarians within our group of Seventh-Day Adventists, the range

Lenovo Thinkpad L512 2597-5VG
Average of 2 scores (from 2 reviews)
Reviews for the Lenovo Thinkpad L512 2597-5VG
A Green Starter Thinkpad? A relatively inexpensive business notebook with a good performance, long battery life and even environmentally-friendly: Who could resist that? We've checked if Lenovo can keep its promotion promises.
Source: Notebookreview.com
The Lenovo ThinkPad L512 offers some cool perks over the average notebook. It has one of the highest percentages of post- consumer plastic and a new environmentally friendly packaging. That said, it would have been nice to see the same things applied to one of the upper ThinkPad models instead of the SL-series from which the L-series is built. Being eco-friendly and offering high performance would be a big draw for a lot of consumers and companies as long as the price is right. While it's great that Lenovo has managed to increase their use of eco-friendly materials without significantly increasing the price, the more important goal might be applying the new philosophy to their entire lineup.

Study Oral Health Therapy
Study the Bachelor of Oral Health and graduate to become an oral health therapist registered with the Dental Board of Australia.
Oral health therapists work with patients of all ages, focusing on oral health maintenance. They work to address factors associated with dental caries and periodontal disease. They assess patients' oral health through clinical examination and radiographs, provide treatment services, and identify conditions requiring referral.
What will I learn?
The Bachelor of Oral Health is a three-year, full-time course that offers students dual qualifications in dental hygiene and therapy, and oral health education and promotion.
During the first two years of the course tuition mainly takes place at the Camperdown Campus, the Westmead Centre for Oral Health and Sydney Dental Hospital. Your academic program will include the biomedical and behavioural sciences unit, and you will be introduced to oral health in society and clinical practice.
The third year of the course involves intensive clinical practice, as well as placements in a variety of locations, including a rural placement of two weeks and involvement in health education and promotion projects. In your final year, you will have the chance to apply everything you have learned to a research project, in which you build a program of care based on the needs of the community in which you undertook your placement.
Course aims
This course will equip you with the required skills, knowledge and experience to deliver oral health education and promotion, dental hygiene and dental therapy services to patients and communities throughout Australia.
Why study at Sydney?
Study oral health therapy with us to:
- gain valuable clinical experience throughout the program, beginning with your first week at our facilities at the Sydney Dental Hospital and the Westmead Centre for Oral Health
- immediately after graduating you'll be fully qualified to work as an oral health therapist
- learn from leading dental professionals, academics and researchers who are key members of the dental community
- have the opportunity to undertake a rural or regional project within the program giving you a broader insight into oral health in the community.
Key academic staff
Dr Kimberly Mathieu Coulton, Bachelor of Oral Health - Academic Coordinator and Head
"From the first week of the course, students spend time in the simulation clinic becoming familiar with the anatomy of the oral cavity, the instruments and patient positioning. In second semester, students get the opportunity to look into one another's mouths and by the second year, students are treating patients in public dental health clinics.
We teach students to search the literature for evidence to support their treatment decisions before treating a patient. Teaching in this way is key to best practice and sets the foundation for life-long learning."
Read more about what Kimberly has to say about this course
Graduate opportunities
Graduates of the Bachelor of Oral Health set the benchmark worldwide. They are highly sought after by dental providers looking for practitioners who have dual qualifications.

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 rural telecom company Atlantic Tele-Network (NASDAQ: ATNI ) soared 11% today after giant AT&T (NYSE: T ) agreed to acquire its domestic retail wireless business, Alltell, for $780 million in cash.
So what: Atlantic Tele-Network's shares have been stagnant over the past several years, but the sale of Alltell, which covers about 4.6 million people in rural areas in the United States, nicely unlocks some shareholder value. In fact, management plans to use the proceeds for acquisition opportunities, possible debt reduction, and dividend payments, triggering plenty of optimism over its financial flexibility going forward.
Now what: The deal is subject to approval from the FCC and the Department of Justice and is expected to close in the second half of 2013. "We are pleased that AT&T recognizes the value of our U.S. wireless retail operations and is acquiring these assets," said Atlantic Tele-Network CEO Michael Prior. "We have a disciplined, long-term approach to managing our portfolio." Given today's run-up in the shares, however, I'd wait for some of the excitement to fade before buying into that bullishness.

The date of the first blog post (well, not the very first) tells me this is Week 160 of Newspaper Club, or day 1,120.
We've not been as talkative as we used to be about running the business. That's mostly because there's a lot more business than there used to be – both customers, and all the stuff to support that: profit and loss reports, management accounts, Skype calls, meetings, planning.
But that's no excuse. We're into the really difficult stage of running a business. We're still small, but there's real money, real jobs and real pressures. But, this is also where the meaty stuff is. We've learnt a lot, and we're learning even more. Those thing seem worth sharing, and if not for you, then for our own sake. We're going to try harder.
So, what's going on?
For a start, we've had two brilliant new people join us. Rosemary is up in Glasgow working full-time with Anne, Emily and Silje to manage all operations, customer service, and well… everything. This is brilliant, because a) Rosemary is brilliant, and b) Anne can go on holiday now.
And Mike is down in London, working with me, to develop the site and future products and services. This is brilliant, because a) Mike is brilliant, and b) I can go on holiday now. He's sat to the right of me, looking very serious, staring at the Backbone.js documentation.
We've been joined part-time over the summer by Jase, who is helping us with some design work. He's sat opposite me, doing some typing wearing a great pair of red headphones.
Behind me is a whiteboard. It says: "ARTHR II: PRINT HARDER", with lots of post-it notes underneath.
I'm really worried about talking about stuff before it's real. Talk is easy, and shipping is hard. But dammit, I'm really excited about this. So, if you promise not to hold us to it, we're completely overhauling ARTHR, using everything we've learnt about how people have used it over the last couple of years. When there's something to show, you'll see it here first.
Anyway, I need to stop typing this, and go and read some blog posts about how to test asynchronous Javascript with QUnit. Onwards.

Panel lines
Hi everyone
Im in the prosses of building a new fuselage for my H1 racer. On my previous one i used chrome oracover and after a wile it started to wrinkle and it looked auwfull. So with this new fuselage i decided to use glass fibre and z poxy finishing resin etc. Iv got to the stage now where im thinking of the panel lines and it has quite a few, now iv never done anything like this before so i thought id start on something small like the rudder and elevators but was woundering what would be the best way to do the lines. Iv seen a few different methods used such as air brush, chart pak tape etc but didnt know which way to go ?.
Kind regards

Hi Chris,
I use 1/64" Chartpak tape and primer to make flush panel lines. The tapes are applied and then three coats of primer are sprayed over just the tapes. Once dry the primer is sanded back until the tape is exposed. I generally dry sand with 320 but occassionally wet sand to blend everything together. Wet sanding has to be done carefully as it will soften and loosen up the tape. Once done sanding the tape is removed and the resulting panel lines are gently scrubbed with a soft toothbrush and soapy water to remove any residue. Don't let the shallow panel lines fool you, they will show up just fine under a coat of paint and particularly so if you weather them with a dark wash. (Or a light one on a dark colored model!)
Here is the black primer over the tapes. I used primer out of a rattle can in this case which is why the resultant paint application is much wider than it really needs to be. No worries about weight since 90% of this gets sanded off anyway.
After pulling up the tapes.
Here are the results after a coat of Zinc primer and then a dark wash.
And the finished and weathered model. Some of the panel lines have as many as four coats of paint over them and they still show up just fine. Although it may be a bit hard to see in the pictures.
Hi chad
That looks awsome ! It looks so relistic, cant wait to get cracking on myne. Just a question about the primering you say just spray the lines but wont that leave it raised compared to the rest of the serface ? or is it to thin to notice once sanded.

The primer over the tapes gets sanded and blended into the surrounding surface Chris. Once finished most of the primer will be sanded off except for the small ridge that forms on either side of the tape to create the panel line.
PS - After thinking about the process a bit more I'd like to amend my statement above regarding dry sanding. Actually, I probably wet sand as much or more than I dry sand. You just have to be cautious when sanding over the tapes not to get too agressive.

MARTINSBURG -Dave Rogers had seen enough.
The Martinsburg coach called a timeout only minutes into the second half, after underdog Elkins hit two quick baskets to cut the Bulldogs lead to nine.
"I'm tired of talking ... you've gotta go play!" he told his team in no uncertain terms.
Article Photos
Journal Photo by Ron Agnir
Elkins' L.J. Lawrence (3) pulls up in front of Martinsburg's Denzel Cole (23) and hits a short jumper from the wing during first-quarter action of a Class AAA, Region II championship tilt Thursday night in Martinsburg. The Tigers lost the contest, 88-56.
He wouldn't have to talk much after that. The message had been received.
Martinsburg went on a 16-0 run, jumpstarting what had been a lethargic start, en route to an 88-56 win in one of the Class AAA, Region II championships. The win puts Martinsburg (23-2) back in the state tournament with likely the top seed for the second year in a row.
The run was quick, spurred by seniors Jordan Robinson and Donte Grantham, who had 14 of the 16 points.
"We were probably looking ahead to the states," Robinson said. "Honestly, that's probably true. We took them lightly. The timeout got us back in the game, got us focused on the game."
The results of the run were devastating to an Elkins team who refused to go away early.
"They just turned it on," Elkins coach John Lawson said. "They have the ability to hit the switch and turn in up a notch and that's what they did. We hadn't seen that kind of length and athleticism this year."
By the time the smoke cleared, the Bulldogs had a 60-36 lead, and a berth in the state tournament, which begins Wednesday at the Charleston Civic Center.
The game also marked a milestone for Grantham, who scored his 1,000th point at the 4:06 mark of the second quarter. He is the first player in the Dave Rogers era to score 1,000 points and have 500 rebounds. He is now just nine rebounds shy of 600.
"It was definitely an accomplishment, something I am proud of," said Grantham, who got choked up talking about the achievement.
"It just shows that all the hard work I did, all those summers playing basketball, paid off."
He is the second member of his family to score 1,000 points for Martinsburg. His sister Iesha Robinson did it in 2009, as a junior.
More important to Grantham, and the Bulldogs, were the eight he scored on the run. A lot of that was off the defense of Robinson, who had three of his five steals during the three minutes of ramped up Bulldog defense.
Robinson started the run followed by baskets by Eugene German and Grantham. Grantham added a free throw before a Robinson steal and lay-up. Grantham then hit a 3, followed by a Robinson basket and finally and a steal and feed from Robinson to Grantham for a slam dunk.
Game, set and match.
"I shouldn't have to tell them anything," Rogers said afterward.
"I didn't think we were ready to play tonight. It sure looked that way."
There were periods of play.
Jalen Lewis, who had a team-high 22 points, had 13 in the first quarter as Martinsburg took a 26-15 lead, although the game was tied at 9-9 early.
"I think they were concerned with shutting down Buddha (Grantham), and that left me open a lot," Lewis said. "There were a lot of open looks. I felt it early. It's nice to have a game like that; it's going to give me confidence going into (the state tourney).
"We probably did underestimate them, thinking they weren't all that. We just needed to refocus."
By the time Grantham scored his 1,000th point, though, the lead had ballooned to 39-20.
Behind the shooting of Logan Phillips, Elkins got back in the game.
Phillips, who had a game-high 23 points, had three 3s in the second and helped the Tigers cut the lead to 45-32 at the half.
It was Phillips who had the first two baskets of the second half, forcing the Martinsburg timeout that changed the momentum and, in essence, the game.
"I think we did overlook them, and you can't do that," Grantham said. "Give them credit, they were hitting their shots."
"They are as good as anybody in the state," Lawson said. "I'm sure they probably thought we were a little inferior, and against that kind of talent, we probably are, but we came in here and faced the best team in the state and we made them play. I'm proud of our kids."
Rogers had a different outlook.
"The important thing, we won the game," Rogers said. "At this point, you have to win. And we did that."
Grantham finished with 20 points and 13 rebounds for the Bulldogs, while Robinson had 17 points, six rebounds and five steals. Freshman Jarrell Jones came off the bench to score 11 and David Long had nine. Denzel Cole did not score but had seven assists and four steals. Lewis, who was 5 of 9 from 3-point range, added six assists and four steals.
Martinsburg hit 50.8 percent from the field (29 of 57) and the Bulldogs were 8 of 20 on 3s.
They also had 20 steals and 20 assists on 37 made shots.
In addition to Phillips' 23 points, Elkins (14-11) got 13 points and eight rebounds from Brandon Roth.

Evans High got off to a slow start in the ABR Tip Off Tournament Friday night, but wasted little time making up for it.
Facing the Region 2-AAAAAA Rockdale County Bulldogs (Conyers, Ga.), the Knights saw the Bulldogs knock down three-3-pointers while building a 17-5 lead at the end of the first period.
By the end of the half, however, the Knights turned the 12-point deficit into a 39-21 lead, outscoring the Bulldogs by a 34-4 margin as they went on to the 79-64 win.
Baseball Camps
• The A-Team Winter Camp will be held on Sundays between Dec. 15 and Jan. 26 at Riverside Park from 1to 4 p.m for sixth through eighth graders.
Cost is $100. The camp focuses on mechanics and position training. Registration deadline is Dec. 7. Contact Adrian McCladdie at (706) 288-8511 or at firstname.lastname@example.com. Contact Stan McIntire at (706) 564-3359.
• Fox Creek High School is hosting a six-week baseball camp starting Jan. 5.
Another softball season is in the books, and once again Columbia County teams made their presence felt around the state. Greenbrier finished the season 26-7 and spent almost the entire season in the Top 10 in Class AAAAA. They also continued to dominate in region play posting a perfect 8-0 versus region foes. Harlem had another great year as well. The Lady Bulldogs made a run at the Class AA State Title before settling for a runner-up finish. Harlem finished with a school record 32 wins. 2013 was also a great year in terms of outstanding individual performances.
It was a busy day in Columbia County when six athletes officially committed to play for colleges and universities on the initial early national letter of intent signing period for the 2013-14 school year.
Four signed to play baseball, with one apiece for softball and golf; running the gamut from Division I to junior college, from local to out-of-state.
New Augusta Christian transfer Michael Weiksner led off the parade of signings by inking with the Division II North Greenville University Crusaders in Tigerville, S.C.
As you see on this page, it was the beginning of the early signing season Wednesday for basketball and all other sports excluding football, soccer, track and field and cross country.
By the end of this week, no fewer than 13 Columbia County seniors will sign the papers that commit them to playing their sport of choice at their (hopefully) school of choice.
In the 2012-2013 season, the Harlem High School Bulldogs swept the Greenbrier Wolfpack in the home-and-home series.
Reprising the season opener from a year ago, the Wolfpack ensured that would not happen Wednesday night, beating the Bulldogs in Harlem, 73-49.
"It was something we've talked about," said Wolfpack coach Casey Heckathorn of prior losses to the Bulldogs.
Friday was the early signing period for spring sports and, as usual, Columbia County had several baseball players sign college scholarships. Former Evans and Georgia Southern standout Michael Holder came down from North Georgia and will have a couple of Columbia County kids playing for him in Dahlonega in 2014-15.

Led by three juniors and two freshmen, the Lady Wolfpack started relatively slow but came on strong in the second period and cruised by the Lady Bulldogs 58-26.
"We have a lot of freshmen and they were scared to death," said Lady Wolfpack coach Stefanie Basinger. "They're nervous about living up to expectations, but they did nicely."

IRIS HAD WILTED long ago, around the time her brother died, neighbors believe.
She used to clean the windows of her Kensington home every morning, but in recent years, Iris Galarza, 88, smelled of urine. She wore plastic bags on her feet and stopped three times a day at the corner store, where the owners gave her food out of pity.
When she didn't get her food there, she got it at shelters or by picking through trash cans, neighbors said.
The deaf woman's house had none of the things a house should have — no running water, electricity or heat, according to court records. It overflowed with papers and trash, and had no fridge, sink or stove. Mud filled the toilet and tub.
