Our patient had life-threatening hemobilia due to a pseudoaneurysm caused by chronic pancreatitis. Enhanced CT demonstrated a small pseudoaneurysm at the anterosuperior pancreaticoduodenal artery adjoining the pancreas head (Figure 1C). As this lesion communicated with the common bile duct, it might have caused massive hemobilia, resulting in the patient's hemodynamic instability. Although his condition required emergent angiography with embolization, it was not possible because of an anomaly of the hepatic artery. Instead, he underwent emergent laparotomy. To control the massive hemobilia, we performed a pancreaticoduodenectomy. Fortunately, the patient had an uneventful postoperative course. Microscopic investigation of the resected specimen showed chronic alcoholic fibrous pancreatitis accompanied by microfistula formation between the common bile duct and bleeding pseudoaneurysm (Figure 2). This connection could have facilitated the massive hemobilia.
Figure 1. Endoscopic and computed tomographic images. A, Emergent upper gastroduodenal endoscopy demonstrated hemobilia emerging from the papilla of Vater. B, Abdominal computed tomography with intravenous contrast demonstrated massive clots in the gall bladder and duodenum. C, Another caudal slice of the computed tomographic scan.
Figure 2. Histological investigation of the resected specimen showed chronic fibrous inflammatory changes due to alcoholic pancreatitis, accompanied by microfistula formation (black arrow) between the bile duct (yellow arrow) and irregularly disrupted vessel-like structures (white arrow) (elastica van Gieson stain, original magnification ×2).
Hemobilia is rare but should be included in the differential diagnosis of gastrointestinal hemorrhage. It occurs when an injury or disease causes communication between the biliary tract and surrounding blood vessels. Its causes include accidental or operative trauma, inflammation, gallstones, tumors, and coagulation or vascular disorders.1,2 Chronic pancreatitis is an uncommon cause of gastrointestinal bleeding,3 but approximately 10% of patients with this condition have a pseudoaneurysm adjoining the pancreas.4,5 Hemosuccus pancreaticus is most commonly caused by rupture of the pseudoaneurysm into the main pancreatic duct and is associated with acute or chronic pancreatitis.
In patients with hemobilia, identifying the source of bleeding is often problematic. Endoscopy with side-viewing duodenoscopy for observation of the papilla of Vater is definitive,1 while ultrasonography and CT are also helpful. If results indicate a pseudoaneurysm, abdominal angiography is required to confirm the diagnosis. The exact mechanism of pseudoaneurysm development is unclear but probably varies according to local pathology. Chronic continuous inflammation is a possible cause of the development of a pseudoaneurysm.5 Pressure necrosis or enzymatic degeneration of the arterial wall due to chronic pancreatitis may accelerate formation and rupture of a pseudoaneurysm.1
Angiography with embolization is a definitive therapy for hemobilia due to a pseudoaneurysm in the pancreaticoduodenal arcade,4 but this approach has serious complications such as bleeding, abscess formation, gallbladder fibrosis, hepatobiliary necrosis, and liver failure. Once the patient is hemodynamically stabilized through this procedure, interventional drainage or surgical resection can be planned electively. Ideally, hemobilia due to a pseudoaneurysm should be managed in this 2-step fashion; if this is not feasible, as in our case, an emergent operation should be undertaken because of the high mortality in untreated patients.5
Hemobilia is an uncommon but serious complication of chronic pancreatitis. Importantly, hemobilia caused by a pseudoaneurysm may be massive but intermittent. Our case highlights its potentially lethal outcome. Awareness of this condition and its appropriate therapy can assist in rapid diagnosis and treatment.

BC-SC--Stores-Women Assaulted,130
SC man arrested for fondling women at stores
SPARTANBURG, S.C. (AP) -- Deputies in Spartanburg County have arrested a man in connection with an assault on three women in different locations one week ago.
Area media outlets report that 20-year-old Romel Alexander Alfaro is charged with first-degree assault and battery. He was arrested at home on Friday.
The first incident was reported at a Target store last Sunday when a woman said a man approached her from behind and grabbed her buttocks. The incident report said the man told the woman he thought she was someone else and walked away.
A similar incident occurred at an Ingles grocery store and at a Wal-Mart. Investigators witnessed another assault, but the victim has yet to come forward.
Alfaro is being held in the county jail, and records dont indicate whether he has an attorney.

Memory and the Brain
Human memory depends heavily on frontal structures of the brain for the creation and retrieval of memories and on temporal structures for the permanent storage of these memories.
2 main regions involved in memory
○ region w/in temporal cortex including hippocampus
- stores new memories permanently
○ prefrontal regions
- associated w/ encoding of new memories and retrieval of old memories
- process information for storage in posterior regions
Sensory Memory
Sensory information is held briefly in cortical sensory memories so that we can process it.

AmeriCorps members have an opportunity to make a lasting impact on the lives of people in the communities they serve as well as on their own. One of the ways that AmeriCorps can impact your life is to help you reach your goals with an education award. When you successfully complete your service, you will receive an education award that can be used to pay for higher education or training or to repay qualified student loans.
To qualify for an education award, you must successfully complete the required "term of service" for the program in which you participate—either Americorps*VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America), AmeriCorps*NCCC (National Civilian Community Corps), or one of the other hundreds of programs in the AmeriCorps network. AmeriCorps*VISTA members may choose a cash payment of $100.00 per month of service instead of the education award. All other AmeriCorps members are eligible only for the education award.
How You Can Use Your Education Award
You can use your education award in the following ways:
The Amount of Your Education Award
The amount of your award depends upon whether your term of service is full-time or part-time.
Please Note: The IRS has determined that education awards are subject to income taxes in the year they are used.
Full-time ($4,725.00). AmeriCorps members who successfully serve at least 1,700 hours during a period of nine months to one year are eligible to receive an award of $4,725.00. AmeriCorps*VISTA members earn a $4,725.00 education award by serving full-time for one year.
Part-time ($2362.50) AmeriCorps members who successfully serve at least 900 hours of service during a period of up to two years are eligible to receive an award of $2,362.50.
Reduced Part-time (proportional to number of hours served). Individuals who serve as AmeriCorps members in a special program, such as a program offered during the summer, may be eligible for an education award of a value proportional to the number of hours served. For example, many summer programs offer education awards of $1,000.
Earning More than One Education Award
AmeriCorps members can receive up to two education awards. Even if you complete more than two terms of service, you may not receive more than two awards, regardless of whether they are full-time, part-time, or reduced terms of service.
Specific Uses of the Education Award
You can divide up your award and use it any way you want, as long as it is for authorized expenditures. For example, you could apply a portion of your award to existing qualified student loans and save the remainder to pay for authorized college costs within the next seven years. Your education award is not transferable to a relative or any other individual under any circumstance.
When the Education Award Can Be Used
You must use your education award within seven years of the completion of your service, and you must have a high school diploma or equivalent at the time you use it. You may apply for an extension if, during the seven-year period, you perform another term of service in an approved AmeriCorps position or if you were unavoidably prevented from using the award.
Qualified Loans
Most postsecondary loans that are backed by the federal government are qualified for repayment with an AmeriCorps education award. These include Stafford Loans, Perkins Loans, William D. Ford Direct Loans, Federal Consolidated Loans, Supplemental Loans for Students, Primary Care Loans, Nursing Student Loans, Health Education Assistance Loans, and loans issued to AmeriCorps members by the Alaska Commission on Postsecondary Education. Your lender should be able to tell you if your loan is qualified.
Qualified Schools
The education award can be used at most institutions of higher education (including graduate and professional programs), as well as some vocational schools. An institution is considered qualified for the education award if it has an agreement with the U.S. Department of Education whereby its students are eligible for at least one of the federally backed forms of financial assistance, such as Pell Grants, Perkins Loans, Stafford Loans, National Direct Loans, and Federal Consolidated Loans. If in doubt, check with the institution's financial aid office prior to making definite plans.

Quinn Taps Former Teacher, Ex-Clinton Staffer as Campaign Manager
City Council Speaker Christine Quinn has hired a former public school teacher who worked on Hillary Clinton's 2008 presidential bid to manage her soon-to-be-announced campaign for mayor.
Quinn, who aspires to be New York City's first female and first openly gay chief executive, has tapped Matt Tepper, a 30-year-old graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, to be her campaign manager, a Quinn adviser confirmed Wednesday.
Tepper taught at Intermediate School 339 in the Bronx before joining Hillary Clinton's campaign, where he worked on field operations in New Hampshire. (For the record, Clinton won in New Hampshire, becoming the first woman — and first former first lady — to win the first-in-the-nation primary.)

- Dante de Blasio Named Influential Teen by Time Magazine
- Live Blog: NYC General Election 2013
- Joe Lhota's Daughter Discusses the GOP, Her Dad's Taste in Shoes
Tepper most recently oversaw independent expenditures for 24 races nationwide at the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in Washington, D.C. In 2010, he managed Rep. Carolyn Maloney's race against Reshma Saujani. (Maloney crushed Saujani, with roughly 81% of the vote; Saujani is exploring a bid for public advocate this year.) He also worked as a field director on Cy Vance's successful bid for Manhattan district attorney in 2009.
"From balancing seven budgets and holding down property taxes to saving over 4,000 teacher jobs to helping crack down on bad landlords, Chris has the most experience and the best ideas to move our city forward," Tepper said in an email sent by the campaign. "I am proud to be joining the team."
Michael DeLoach, who managed Vance's campaign in 2009, will be a senior adviser on Quinn's campaign and will be traveling around the city with the speaker.
According to a November Quinnipiac University poll, Quinn has a commanding lead in the race for the Democratic mayoral nomination, with 32% of primary voters supporting her. The poll showed Bill Thompson, a former city comptroller, had 10%; Public Advocate Bill de Blasio, 9%; and City Comptroller John Liu, 5%.
To win the primary, a candidate must secure 40% of the vote; otherwise, a runoff is held two weeks later between the top two vote-getters.
Quinn, 46 years old, started her career as a liberal rabble-rousing housing organizer. She joined the council in 1999 and became the council's speaker, the first woman to hold that post, in 2006. She and her wife, Kim Catullo, live in Chelsea.

Distinguished Teaching Professor Emeritus
M.M., University of North Texas
Office: 815-753-7973
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
Robert Chappell's background in orchestral, jazz, and world percussion has helped give the NIU Percussion area the broad scope needed to prepare students for the ever-changing musical demands and entrepreneurial skills needed for success in the twenty-first century.
Robert joined the NIU School of Music faculty in 1983 as Head of Percussion Studies. His formal education includes degrees from Ohio State University and the University of North Texas where he toured and recorded with the renowned One O'Clock Lab Band. Among his orchestral teachers are Cloyd Duff and Joe Adato of the Cleveland Orchestra, Kal Cherry of the Dallas Symphony, and Gerald Unger of the Pittsburgh Symphony. In 2003, he was named an NIU Presidential Teaching Professor.
Robert has been a member of the Columbus, Ft. Worth, Dallas, and Illinois Chamber Symphonies and performed often with the Indianapolis and Elgin Symphonies. In the jazz/world music area, Chappell was keyboardist/percussionist with the Paul Winter Consort for five years, performing throughout the U.S., Japan, Canada, and Mexico and recording three albums. He formed his own world-jazz group Rhythmic Union, recording two albums and touring extensively. Since 1998 he has performed with steelpan artist Liam Teague in Liam Teague+ Robert Chappell. Their debut CD, For Lack of Better Words was released in 2002. Teague and Chappell recently formed a six-piece Latin/Caribbean group, Panoramic, which was featured at the 2004 Percussive Arts Society International Convention. Panoramic's debut CD will be released in late 2004.
Chappell's interest in world percussion has resulted in studies in African drumming with Kwaku Dadey and Indian tabla drumming with Ustad Zakir Hussain and Pandit Swapan Chaudhuri. In 1990 he received an Indo-American Research Fellowship to continue study with Ustad Alla Rakha in Bombay, India. During the winter of 2004, Chappell spend two months in Trinidad and Tobago, W. Indies researching the unique tassa drumming tradition of TnT. As a result of this research, NIU will be the first university in the US with a tassa ensemble.
Robert has composed works for contemporary percussion, jazz groups, and cross-cultural ensembles, and has been published by Marimba Productions, Pan Press and Panyard Publications. In 2006, Chappell's composition Open Window for steelpan and marimba won first place in the Percussive Arts Society International Composition Competition. His piece Wood-N-Steel for steelband and African amadinda xylophone, was performed by the NIU Steelband at the National Concert Hall in Taipei, Taiwan, the Seoul Drum Festival 2002 in Korea, The Percussive Arts Society International Convention, and with the Chicago Symphonietta, the Buffalo Philharmonic, and the Rockford Symphony. Wood-N-Steel was instrumental in helping the NIU Steelband finish second in the world in the World Steelband Festival 2000 in Trinidad and Tobago, W. Indies, the home of the steelpan. Chappell is a Yamaha performing artist and endorses Sabian cymbals and Mike Balter mallets.

It's been 21 days since Ray Shero was slayed.
And the Penguins still don't have a GM.
And he makes some solid points.
Our only point of emphasis is this – at this point why rush it?
Get it right. The best, and probably most generic comparsion we can make is you are basically entering a five-year relationship based off of three dates(interviews). You don't even know if you are going to be annoyed with this persons laugh.
Most teams usually take four or five weeks to decide.
We will say this, Dejan is right in one aspect, this is no question a circus. Several days ago, the rumor on the street was Pierre McGuire was set to become the GM. After yesterday the trail went cold, and the number nine – as in candidates left – started floating around in various circles. In fact, it was confirmed to us by two different people in the spectrum of the Penguins rumor chain.
So, expect this whole thing to get stranger by the day. But all that matters:
Get it right.

I had Gynecomastia surgery 8 months ago. As you can see from my photos I have developed internal scar tissue. My nipples are puffier than they we're before my operation. I can feel that the scar under my left nipple is no bigger than my areola in diameter, where as my right is significantly larger in diameter but slightly flatter and slightly less noticeable. Why? What are my options? Is cortisone injections a good option? If I re-excise wont the scarring just reappear? Please help!

Male breast reduction with left over fullness
The fullness might be scar, but more likely is some leftover breast tissue. Its important to leave some tissue under the areola so it doesn't "cave in" and sometimes it is difficult to get it exactly right. An exam by your surgeon will help to differentiate scar from left over tissue.
If it is scar, steroid injections and massage might help. If it turns out to be a little too much tissue, a revision may be the right answer. Revisions shouldn't be done too soon, so be patient.
I don't think you need to rule out revision for fear of more scar formation, if that is what you decide with your surgeon.
Scar Tissue After Gynecomastia Surgery?
Thanks for the post and the photos. Based on your photos and the fact that you are 8 months post surgery, you will not get any more improvement without some sort of intervention. If your chest contour was very good right after surgery and then began getting firm and puffy under the areola, then this is likely scar tissue and may benefit from kenalog injection. If there was fullness under the areola right after the surgery, then it is likely residual breast tissue and will need surgery to remove.

Revisional Gynecomastia Surgery: A Good Option
Your photos demonstrate that you likely have additional breast tissue in the chest area. Sometimes, scar tissue can exacerbate this appearance. Steroid injections alone are unlikely to solve the problem. Additional breast tissue excess under the nipple is also supported by the enlarged areola, which is stretched by the breast tissue. It would be a good idea to see your surgeon or a second opinion by an exerienced, board-certified plastic surgeon

Residual Tissue after Male Breast Reduction
After 8 months, you may have residual tissue, but this would be difficult to determine without an exam. With regard to widening of areola, this can occur as healing takes place. Kenneth Hughes, MD male breast reduction Los Angeles, CA
8 Months Post Gyno Surgery - Will my Internal Scar Tissue Disappear?
Yes I see the issue. First try the Kenalog injections over a 3 to 6 month time frame. Than if not improved get revision surgery.
I believe you need revisional surgery. You still have significant breast tissue and may be fat.
You can wait couple of months and see if there is any change.
Get another opinion
You may need revision of your gynecomastia procedure if not all the tissue was removed under the nipple. This can be more glandular tissue and difficult to treat without excision.

Post Bros. executive Sarina Rose had grown used to troubles at work literally following her home.
During the day, she dodged taunts from union protesters outside the 12th and Wood Streets work site in Philadelphia, where her company was building apartments last year.
After hours, tradesmen snapped photos of her children, 8 and 11, at their bus stop in Abington. They trailed her at weekend sporting events. One union leader loudly cursed at her in front of a packed restaurant and mimicked shooting her.
And under Pennsylvania law, none of it was a crime.
"When you walk in, as a vice president of a company, to a restaurant full of union workers," Municipal Judge Charles Hayden told Rose in court last November, "you're going to hear some things that you should have expected to hear."

Redskins owner Daniel Snyder refuses to change the name of his team. Should we do it for him? More specifically, should the media no longer recognize the official designation? A former chair of the Federal Communications Commission recently told me the answer is yes.
"I would like to suggest something to you: Why don't you in your own job think about not using the derogatory name that Mr. Snyder has chosen?" Reed Hundt asked. "Why not? Why doesn't it start on a person-by-person basis? Why don't people just say, 'You know what, standards have changed.' "

Los Angeles, CA -
Concluding a six day preliminary hearing, a Los Angeles County Superior Court judge has ordered Louie Sanchez and Marvin Norwood to stand trial for the beating of San Francisco Giants fan Bryan Stow at Dodger Stadium. The beating left Stow nearly dead, and he remains in a therapeutic facility still with low prospects that he will ever be able to provide for his two sons again.
According to several witnesses, Sanchez and Norwood were harassing and taunting Stow following a game between the Giants and the Dodgers. Stow made several attempts to walk away but Sanchez and Norwood persisted.
Eventually, with arms at his side, one of the two men, accused in the beating, punched Stow in the side of the head so hard it probably rendered him unconscious according to experts during testimony. He then fell to the ground with his head hitting the concrete making a loud noise.
Even the girlfriend of one of the two testified that Sanchez and Norwood jumped in the car quickly and yelled "get ... out of here!" and that there was blood on Norwood's hands. She said she never asked what happened and they never told her. She is the mother of a child with Norwood.
During a phone call recording of Marvin Norwood when he used an LAPD detective's mobile phone, Norwood apologized to his mother saying, "Hey, I got arrested for that Dodger Stadium thing,... I was involved .... To a certain extent I was." He then tells his mother, "Pretty sure I'm going down for it .... I'm sorry."

In Pat Conroy's semi-autobiographical book and film "Conrack," the protaganist shouts from a truck in the whitest neighborhood of Buelah, South Carolina, that "a mere 20 more headstones in the graveyard of every city in the nation will resolve the problem of overt racism."
The Economist makes a softer reference when it states the "calendar solution" to politically divisive issues. Simply put, problems resolve themselves through the calendar when the younger generation (on a majority basis) feels differently than the older generation. Actuarially, the younger generation will always triumph.
I met the calendar solution to the problems of migration this last Sunday at 7 a.m. in the form of Ryan King, a senior at Saugus High School, lifelong Santa Clarita Valley resident and founder of the SCV Alliance for Immigrant Advocacy (SAIA) at the favored meeting place for all: a ubiquitous Starbucks.
Ryan King impressed me in two ways: First, the willingness of a high school student to meet with me at 7 a.m. on a Sunday, a time with which he confessed he bore little familiarity. Second, the fact a teenager could pull his iPod headphones out of his ears long enough to become politically aware, especially on the currently white hot issue of migration.
Ryan King formed the SAIA when he learned something rather shocking. Like many other people who lived their entire life in the SCV, he assumed the problems of migration stood somewhere outside of his direct view, related primarily to the border and perhaps the odd handful of day laborers seen on SCV streets.
He related to me his shock when he learned that friends since grade school, steeped in American culture and effectively claiming English as their primary language, confessed their lack of legal status.
Brought to this country as infants by parents following the magnet of work and opportunity, and fleeing in many cases political and economic violence, these children know little of their nations of origin and would claim the United States as their only home. With the cynical nature of U.S. migration policy that feeds the craving of U.S. business for unskilled and semi-skilled immigrant labor while failing to provide any meaningful method for legal entry into the U.S., their families built some type of semi-regular life providing their children with the opportunities available.
Anti-immigrant folks, often well-meaning in bringing up the very real problems of a non-regular part of the population, tend to view the illegal migrant in the caricature of the drug criminal and/or the day laborer clad in athletic shoes and a baseball cap.
King and his fellow members of SAIA cannot, since they actually know the folks involved, with real compelling stories with whom they formed real friendships.
King knows that right now very little chance of nuanced discussion exists. He attended the immigration "education" session recently sponsored by the city of Santa Clarita and determined quickly that it had little to do with education and everything to do with the posturing of certain shrill anti-migrant folks.
This did not discourage him, since he knows that his own peer group bears a much more reasoned view of the issue and hopes for a comprehensive and just solution.
King and SAIA do not possess a manifesto for an overarching solution, but just want their friends, not complicit in their illegal presence in this country, to obtain some type of regular status so that they can move forward with their lives and make a good contribution to their home country. They hope that a more nuanced discussion can eventually be held once all the screaming stops, probably with the recovery of the broader economy and the lack of another construction boom that will forestall another flood of migrant labor.
In the meantime, they wish to provide awareness of sympathy to the migrant cause to somewhat mute the shrill and frightening words of some.
Some in the blogosphere refer to King's efforts in the vein of youthful idealism, eventually cured by the coming of age.
Perhaps, but I do not see the passage of years altering the views of the earnest young man that I met on that Sunday morning.
In the meantime, Ryan King and those of like mind realize the turning of the inexorable calendar brings their dreams of justice and equality closer to reality.

- 2 undergraduate courses (6 unit hours) in fine arts (or equivalent experience)
Teacher Certification Requirements
To teach in K–12 schools in British Columbia, individuals must meet the teacher certification requirements set out by the Teacher Regulation Branch of the BC Ministry of Education. In some cases PDP's requirements are somewhat higher than TRB's. SFU's requirements are meant to prepare teachers for the challenges of K–12 schooling in British Columbia, while TRB's must also foster inter-provincial certification.
|TRB Requirement
|Integration Semester
|Teaching Semester
|Coursework Semester
|Undergraduate Degree
|6 units of English
|48 unit hours in teacher preparation
3 units on teaching special needs students
3 units in First Nations pedagogy
10 week teaching practicum
6 units of Canadian Studies (Canadian Geography and History)
3 units of mathematics
3 units of science
A single teaching area of 24 units
*Applicants with an acceptable three unit undergraduate course in education need only take 15 units during the coursework semester.
French Language Appraisal (FLA)
The French Language Appraisal (FLA) is a written and oral test in French, required of applicants to the French Module only and scheduled through the Office of Francophone and Francophile Affairs (OFFA). Applicants interested in the French Module should contact that office to arrange the FLA at the time they are submitting their application and complete it one semester before their enrolment in PDP. OFFA will directly forward the completed FLA results to the PDP admissions office.
Grade Point Average (GPA)
We calculate your gradepoint average using the most recent two years (approximately 60 units) of undergraduate coursework complete at the time of application. (This may include post-degree coursework). Applicants with a gradepoint below 2.5 (on the 4.33 point scale) in this calculation will not be considered.
Secondary Applicants Teachable Subjects and Areas
To teach in secondary schools, you must have completed one major or two minors in teachable subjects. The exact requirements for majors and minors in various disciplines (mathematics, English, etc.) differs by faculty and department. However,
- a major is approximately 15 to 18 units of lower division coursework (100 & 200 level courses), plus approximately 30 units of upper division coursework (300 & 400 level courses), all in one subject; while
- a minor is approximately 12 to 15 units of lower level coursework, plus approximately 18 units of upper division coursework in one subject.
Please refer to the Simon Fraser University Calendar for specific major/minor requirements of a particular faculty or department.
Not all university majors and minors will translate into teachable subjects in British Columbian Secondary Schools. See the lists below for teachable subjects.
SFU Literacy Requirement
To be eligible to enrol in the first semester of PDP, Integration of Theory and Practice, students must meet SFU's literacy requirements. Students who have completed a post-secondary English course transferable to SFU with a C- or better automatically meet this requirement. There are other ways to meet it as well.

THERE is a good chance the gold price will rebound from oversold levels after investors took fright from developments in Cyprus, but it would take sustained US economic weakness to restart the bull market in the metal, UBS said on Wednesday.
The gold price had one of its largest historic falls last Monday when it dropped by $200. Gold fell to $1,355.50/oz, an intraday fall of 9.7%, the steepest fall since a 9.6% drop in February 1983.
Gold reached a record $1,921/oz in September 2011, the high-water mark in a 12-year bull run.
One reason for the fall was the market misunderstanding a report on the bail-out of the Cyprus economy and potential central bank gold sales there, which investors feared could mark the start of broader European central bank gold sales, said UBS global commodity and mining analyst Julien Garran.
This was a highly unlikely development, he said, citing central banks striving for credibility with the size and quality of their reserves. Under European Union rules, governments cannot force or prompt central banks to sell gold, Mr Garran said.
While the Cyprus central bank may sell off part of its 13.5 tons of gold, it was likely to do so in an off-market transaction to another central bank with no net effect on the gold market, he said.
"We are exceptionally sceptical that this indicates that there would be further central bank selling from the rest of Europe. The key issue is central bank credibility and there's no way they'd want to impinge on that," Mr Garran said. "We think that sell-off was substantially overdone on that basis, and consequently there is further upside in the gold price in the short term."
A bigger factor in determining the direction of the gold price was what the US Federal Reserve was planning to do with its quantitative easing (QE) programme, and the health of the US economy.
"For us, gold is and always has been an almost perfect barometer whether the US will be reflating the global economy or deflating it."
While there could be a kick-up in the gold price, recouping some of its losses, sentiment towards gold is likely to remain cool.
"Yes, we can bounce further from the oversold levels of last Monday because of the misapprehension of the Cyprus gold sales, but in order to get a proper bull market in gold what you need is a serial disappointment in US data that persists for some time," Mr Garran said.
The US and global emerging markets are likely to strengthen over the next few months, he said.
This strengthening could cause bond yields and oil prices to rise.
"If they rise sufficiently so they start to squeeze the US consumer, that could cause at some point later in the year a more persistent weakness in US growth, which could stay the hand of the Fed and cause investors to start thinking that QE would have to be larger and last for longer," he said. "That for us would be the point where you could see a sustained outperformance for gold relative to other assets."
Gold in exchange-traded funds and products plunged by $20bn this month and was heading for the biggest monthly drop.

FLINT – It's that time of the year again. The Flint Olympian Games are here.
For the 58th consecutive year, athletes from the greater Flint area are given an Olympic-style platform to showcase their talents in 20 sporting events.
The opening ceremonies for "The Games" won't happen until Tuesday, July 15, at Northwestern High School's Guy V. Houston Stadium, but the official action starts Tuesday, July 8. The Flint Olympian Games will run from July 8-20 at various facilities and fields all over the Flint-area.
Any resident of Flint or Genesee County, or students at local colleges such as Mott, Kettering or the University of Michigan-Flint, are eligible to join the fun.
Standout athletes will use the Olympian Games to qualify for the 57th annual CANUSA games, which will also be in Flint this summer from Aug. 8-10.
"This is just a jewel of Flint," said Co-Chairman Sean Croudy. "There's always talk of how bad the Flint Community Schools are, but this is something positive to promote physical fitness and sportsmanship throughout Genesee County with over 20 sports from basketball to swimming and many other sports."
Opening ceremonies will start with a fitness walk at 9:30 a.m. then proceed to the yearly ritual at 10 a.m. and end the day with track and field events. The event is free to the public and everyone is welcome to attend.
Registration can still get completed in the office, located at Flint Southwestern Classical Academy's community room. Croudy, Chris Daly and Mike Maienbrook are the co-chairpersons.

MT. MORRIS, Michigan ─ Over the past two months, two groups of students at Mt. Morris Junior High School, plus a team of Moore Elementary students became fun masters in order to raise money for a serious cause.
Jr. High members of the student council and the National Junior Honor Society together raised more than $700 for the Food Bank of Eastern Michigan through fun school events.
On Fridays in November and December, students donated a dollar for out-of-the-ordinary privileges, such as being able to listen to music, don a hat or even wear PJs to school. Staff members opened up their hearts and wallets too, donating $5 to wear jeans.
The fundraiser season was also a time for students to practice mentorship. Student council and NJHS members went to Moore Elementary to help promote Moore's building fundraisers, said Al Peters, Junior High principal. Junior High students helped create posters for Crazy Hat & Hair Day, an event in which Moore fifth graders raised $225.
The fundraiser finale: a Holiday Fun Frenzy which took place Dec. 13 at the school, featuring an open gym, dancing, games and holiday crafts.
The Junior High PTO donated everything for a cookie decorating station, and 17 staff members volunteered to oversee the event.
"The fundraiser was extremely successful," said Peters. "Thank you to everyone who displayed Panther pride and donated their time, talents or treasures in order to help those in need."

Foreward By Jay Leno
The least documented era of Maserati s history, the Citroën period of ownership, is also the most misunderstood. Thanks to unprecedented access to Maserati in Modena and Citroën in Paris, this book contains a wealth of new and previously unpublished material. The era started with immense promise as the venerable Modenese firm, previously in dire financial straits, was modernized and reorganized, the clearest evidence being the replacement of obsolete models using old fashioned technology, firstly with the cutting-edge Bora, the most advanced and accomplished of all the first generation mid-engined cars, then with the Khamsin, the most sophisticated and competent front-engined car of the seventies, and lastly with the Merak, which afforded excellent handling and a beautiful shape to a whole new group of Maserati buyers. All these models are described here in detail, in addition to the Citroën SM, which prompted the French manufacturer to buy Maserati when seeking an engine for its flagship Grand Tourisme. Also covered are the stillborn Quattroporte II, the Bora Gp 4 racers, the Khamsin Spyder and the little known yet fascinating Ligier Maserati JS2 road and racing cars. Further insight into this period of Maserati history describes the engines themselves, including the special V8 which had been intended for the Quattroporte II after the initial V6, and the Citroën SM which was eventually fitted with this prototype engine. This is the definitive book on Maserati s years under Citroën ownership, an era dominated by the energy crisis, the introduction of speed limits, the quadrupling of fuel prices and political and social unrest, all of which formed a virtual tsunami which Maserati could not repel, leading to its closing and sale to de Tomaso with Italian government help.

Manchester City began 2014 the way they lived much of 2013.
The Citizens have more sheer talent than any side in the Premier League. For what Manchester City's management have spent to assemble the team, it would be a shock if that was not the case.
But the names in the Manchester City XI are just that—names. Once the referee blows his whistle and the ball is kicked off, neither the ball nor City's opposition much care who Manchester City's players are or how much they cost. Certainly the weather is totally ignorant.
Manchester City lost the Premier League in 2012-2013 for many reasons, one of them being that they did not much carry themselves like champions and played down to their opposition too often.
So there were the Sky Blues in their traveling black strip in South Wales on New Year's Day, taking on Swansea City on their home ground in a cold downpour; another Premier League side who took the match to Manchester City repeatedly and played with nothing like respect or fear.
Here are six lessons we learned from Swansea City 2-3 Manchester City.

The Dowager Lady Dorothy Basildonx
On being presented at court as a 17-year old debutante, 'Dotty' famously caused asunder by regaling guests with some 'juicy goss' concerning one of the debs and a certain royal equerry (frightfully, the subjects in question were both in ear shot). "Hey ho!" as she says.
As darling of the Cap d'Antibes jetset during the 60s, Dotty would claim it was "BB" who introduced her to the joys of Three Barrels brandy. Not Brigitte Bardot, but dashing ex-Spitfire ace, Bertie Basildon, who quickly won her heart with a brandy cocktail he'd named after her – The Dotty Deb.
Sadly, he would soon go missing while on safari. But Dotty still has her memories, as well as a nude portrait of herself by Picasso – no doubt she'd happily fill you in on all that over a Three Barrels cocktail or two.View Dotty's cocktail recipes

Joseph, SU's leading scorer, injured his head when he fell on a drive to the basket in the first half of Syracuse's game against Cincinnati last Saturday.
Joseph missed the remainder of the Cincinnati game and then remained home rather than traveling with his teammates for Monday's game at No. 5 Pittsburgh. Without Joseph, Syracuse (18-1 overall, 5-1 Big East) suffered its first loss of the season, falling 74-66 to Pitt.
"As the days go on, I've been getting better," Joseph said. "Hopefully, I'll be able to play. In my opinion, I should be OK, but it also depends on what the doctor says and what (SU trainer) Brad (Pike) says."
At Syracuse's practice on Wednesday, Joseph was dressed in practice gear except for his feet. Rather than basketball sneakers, Joseph padded around in flip-flops. He attempted a few shots, but did not participate in any part of practice.
"I'm just going to get some more treatment and get some shots up," he said. "I'll see how I feel after that."
Joseph, whose 14.6 points per game leads the Orange, said he watched the Pittsburgh game at his apartment along with SU walk-ons Griffin Hoffman and Matt Lyde-Cajuste.
"Even if I didn't play, I would have rather been there, so I could give guys like James (Southerland) and C.J. (Fair) some instructions on the court," said Joseph, referring to the two young forwards who took on more playing time in his absence. "It's harder to watch at home where no one can hear you when you're screaming at them. That was the toughest thing for me, watching the team when I couldn't do anything to help them."
Joseph, who spent Saturday night in the hospital after sustaining the injury, said he still has some stiffness in his neck and soreness around where his head hit the court.
"I'm progressing back slowly," Joseph said. "I'm feeling all right. I'm much better than I did on Saturday. Every day I've been getting a lot better. Hopefully, I'll be back for Saturday."

The shamrocks might be covered in a dusting of white 81 days after those who dreamed of a white Christmas got their wish.
Just as Christmas Eve brought the area a covering of snow, snowflakes could fall again in the city streets in time for the second annual St. Patrick's Day Parade at 11 a.m. Saturday, according to the National Weather Service in State College.
As luck would have it, not even the meteorologist who spoke with the Sun-Gazette Wednesday afternoon could say for sure whether it'll rain on pots of gold or fill them with snow.
"Temperatures are going to be borderline whether it's rain or snow," said Craig Evanego, a forecaster at the center looking at the cold front sweeping into the region from the northern plains.
No matter what Mother Nature brings, leprechauns will dance in the streets and green beer will be on tap.
"Even if it is snow, a lot of times when it falls in mid-March, it is difficult to accumulate because of the sun's angle, but it depends on whether the storm arrives Friday night and the timing," he said. "If it comes in Friday night, it could stick a little."
Fact Box
WHAT: 2nd annual St. Patrick's Day Parade
WHEN: 11 a.m. Saturday
WHERE: Starts at Campbell and West Fourth streets, ends at West Fourth and Market streets
The culprit is a strong cold front sweeping into the region late Friday night, bringing a 50-percent chance of either rain or snow showers, Evanego explained.
Spectators of the parade, which begins at 11 a.m. at the corner of West Fourth and Campbell streets and moves eastward down West Fourth to Market Street, won't need snow boots no matter what conditions strike.
"It'll probably be more wet," Evanego said.
Parade organizer Brenda Everett and the parade committee assured people watching and taking part in the day-long events will have a day of memories and shared Irish spirit - no matter the weather.
Everett listed a few of the expected participants in this year's parade. Among them are the Mounted State Police Color Guard based in Harrisburg, bagpipe bands and solo bagpipers hitting the high notes and former city Mayor Michael R. Rafferty, who served from 2000 to 2004 and who will lead the procession as parade grand marshal.
New to the parade is a community challenge, Everett said. It's a $1,000 prize awarded to the "Most Spirited" entry's charity of choice.
Once again, giant floating balloons, including a shamrock and Happy O' Lucky the Leprechaun, are expected to make appearances.
High school bands, city and local firefighters on engines, vintage cars and men on stilts also have wowed the crowds in the past and are expected to be in the procession.
Following the parade, a pub and restaurant tour is open to the public, with as many as 20 establishments serving traditional Irish food, drink specials and offering entertainment throughout the day and night.
Free trolleys will run from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.

Santa Clarita Christian's 8-man football team was supposed to lose to Avalon on Nov. 22.
Instead, the Cardinals, by winning 28-21, showed that they are a legitimate title contender.
And in only the third time in the school's history, the Cardinals advanced to the semifinals of the CIF-Southern Section Division I 8-man Football Playoffs.
At 1 p.m. on Saturday, SCCS (9-2) will go on the road to face No. 2 ranked Windward of Los Angeles.
Last season, Windward lost to Cate of Carpinteria in the second round of playoffs but got redemption this season in a 50-0 shutout on Friday.
Despite the Wildcats' ranking and a perfect 11-0 record, SCCS has the upper hand in the two ball clubs' series.
The Cardinals have won three out of four meetings including a 49-0 win in 2006.
But SCCS head coach Garrick Moss said that this year's Wildcats' team will be a more staunch and unyielding competitor.
"In the past we did well against them," Moss said. "But they are a lot different this year. They have some really talented guys with a lot of size and speed."
Behind a formidable defense, the Wildcats have posted seven shutouts and have held opponents to 3.5 points per game.
"Our offense will have to figure out how to get big plays over their defense," Moss said.
Offensively, behind quarterback James Ondattaja, running back Blayr Jimmerson and wide receiver A.J. Frank, Windward has scored 48 points or more against its competitors all season.
"They have a lot of different weapons as well and we have to keep them from making big plays," Moss said.
Windward's seventh-year head coach Steve Napier has led the team to its first ever semifinal matchup and said the Cardinals will be the toughest competition the team has faced so far.
"They are a good football team and have a good coaching staff," Napier said. "The kids are coached up well and play hard."
Napier's game plan is simple - stop No. 22. No. 22, Collin Keoshian, the Cardinals' preeminent running back/linebacker, has been a dominant force for SCCS.
The two-time All-CIF player has 164 carries for 1,528 yards and has scored 23 touchdowns this season.
"We've watched a lot of film and tape to figure out how to stop that," Napier said referring to Keoshian's run game. "He will run you over if he has the chance. If we can stop him we feel a little better."
But SCCS has a big challenge.
"We're excited to have the opportunity to have the semifinal at home," Napier said.
SCCS is averaging 51.4 points per game and has produced two 50-plus point shutouts this season.
"We're very proud of the fact we're here," Moss said. "We want to try and figure out how we can take this game. It's another game where we come in as the underdogs but we're excited about our role. We're hungry for it."
