I like when I can buy American and know that my purchase is benefiting businesses, employees and families that share their citizenship with me. I like it even better when I can buy Ohio (my home state), and know that the benefits land even closer to home. However, knowing whether I am buying American is difficult enough. Knowing whether I am buying from a particular state is more difficult still.
That's why I was interested in a novel partnership announced earlier this year by New Hampshire Governor John Lynch. The state worked with manufacturing marketplace MFG.com to produce a special "New Hampshire only" area of MFG's site. Manufacturing suppliers who register through the MFG link on NHEconomy.com receive a special profile that is fully part of MFG.com, but also integrated with the site's New Hampshire-only content. Manufacturing buyers registering with NHEconomy.com then have access to the New Hampshire information for free.

Rubber Band Loom Crafts: Easy Jewelry and More for Girls and Guys!
Gifted by Leisure Arts
Reviewed by Liz Abderholden
Rubber band looms have taken the world by storm. If you're a teacher, parent, or anyone who's talked to a kid recently, you are probably more than aware of the rubber band jewelry trend that's dominating kids' crafts. Kids are always looking for more projects and Rubber Band Loom Crafts is here to help them create more crafts. Whether your child uses a Rainbow Loom, Wonder Loom, FunLoom, Cra-Z-Loom, or one of the many other types of looms out there, he or she can do the jewelry tutorials in this book.
Rubber Band Loom Crafts starts with a very basic pattern and then moves on the more difficult ones. It breaks down each project's steps into two parts. First, it shows you the band placement you'll need for the pattern along with pictures of how you'll set it up too. Then it shows you how you'll loop the bands with the loop tool, which will combine the bands together to make the necklace, bracelet, or ring.
One of the best features of the book is the big graphics and thorough instructions. All of the instructions and their accompanying pictures are in large print so your child can easily see and read them. Rubber Band Loom Crafts not only break the projects down into two steps, but if a project uses multiple bands, they color coat each so your kid can easily see what they're supposed to do. They also have pictures of what the crafts look like once their complete.
If your kid has a loom and is looking for more projects to take on this book is just for them. While jewelry is usually thought of as "girly", rubber band crafts are popular among young boys and girls. This book would make a great birthday present, holiday gift, or even an after-school surprise. Whenever you choose to give it to them, it will probably be met with fits of joy and excitement.

Dear Mr. Platt,
In your salacious zeal to grab the attention of the masses, you clearly went above and beyond the pale with your latest headline — "TOURIST DEATH TRAP" — with the accompanying picture of Atlantic City on the front cover of your newspaper. The death of these two women is a horrific tragedy but it was an isolated incident. To classify Atlantic City as a lawless town is unconscionable and, quite simply, bad reporting.
Your readers overwhelmingly come to the shore for vacations and weekend getaways, and to pander to unnecessary fears is the lowest form of journalism, which says more about your greed to sell a paper than it does about imparting the facts to the public. Benjamin Franklin must be spinning in his grave so forcefully he's knocking off the pennies that cover his tombstone. Whether or not the article contains the actual truth does not matter — the headline alone will do so much damage to a city whose reputation is undergoing a transformation. In addition, the fact that the alleged perpetrator is from Philadelphia makes your headline even more inaccurate.

HB ON THE SCENE: Investors, Lenders Analyze Credit Crunch At 2008 Meet The Money
Thursday May 8th, 2008 - 12:45AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
HENDERSON, NV— The affects of the credit crunch and the cyclical hotel industry downturn have been discussed across the lodging industry ad infinitum for the past few months, with doom and gloom scenarios the subsequent by product. Today, at the 18th annual Meet The Money conference here, it seemed as if the hotel investment and lending community finally came to grips with these facts and, more importantly, made the first proactive steps toward actually figuring out how to handle it all.
Relocated to a new venue this year from Los Angeles to Henderson, NV's Green Valley Ranch Resort, the event began, as usual, with Jim Butler, chairman of the global hospitality group at Los Angeles-based Jeffer Mangels, Butler & Marmaro LLP, which runs this annual hotel debt and equity financing conference. Butler began by noting that hotel financing is clearly difficult to obtain, but he optimistically added that many of the lenders attending the conference expressed to him that they are indeed still financing hotels.
Before those lenders took the stage, Smith Travel Research's Bobby Bowers and PKF Consulting's Mark Woodworth also optimistically displayed why this hotel downturn will not be quite as severe as previous ones. Backing up that assertion is the fact that supply will remain in check, especially because new construction financing has slowed, and the fact that hotel operating fundamentals are still substantial. Furthermore, according to Woodworth, November of 2008 will be the last trough of this industry downturn and 2010 is shaping up to be a recovery year.
Meanwhile, Dan Lesser of CB Richard Ellis noted in his presentation that despite hotel investment financing obstacles it is actually a great time to buy hotels.
Surprisingly, the lenders featured in the next session titled "Who's Funding Now? Why? When & How?" were similar to Lesser in their relatively non-bearish, but-not-quite-bullish stance. Most noted that with the right, experienced borrower in a transaction in the right market with a good brand, debt can be obtained, albeit it at typically around 65% loan-to-value, a far cry from the upcycle's 90% LTV deals.
But some of the lenders made the point that while underwriting is definitely tight at the moment as a reaction to the capital markets meltdown, 65% LTV— and not 90% LTV— is closer to the historical norm for the hotel industry anyway. Furthermore, some noted that the lenders that underwrote on future performance at 90% LTV are the ones no longer around or are currently on their way out.
"Most of us up here on this panel didn't get caught up in the crazy things that occurred," explained Adam Greene of Textron Financial. "So now we're almost reintroducing ourselves to the community again and showing we're still here."
However, despite all the talk of how good deals will get done with a dose of creativity on the borrowers' and lenders' parts and that time will heal the debt market, David Soares of Berkshire Capital Financial noted that this may not be the last credit crunch. "Wall Street is still unraveling all of its paper and it will be three years before the bond markets comes back confidence wise, but the worst case scenario for everyone involved will be if it all comes back with high leverage deals again," he said. "By then people will get more aggressive again with their underwriting. You see, in the capital markets we tend to act more like lemmings. Of course there are cliffs we inevitably reach. So this will all probably happen again some day."

Peru reminds Argentina Shinning Path terrorists are an illegal group
Peru slammed reports that Movadef, the nascent political wing of the Shining Path armed group, had met with representatives of human rights groups in Argentina, including the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo Association, with the aim of gaining political credibility.
Peru's Foreign Minister, Rafael Roncagliolo, on Thursday "firmly deplored that members of (Movadef) had been received by representatives of non-governmental social organizations" in an official statement.
According to the statement, Peru's ambassador to Argentina, Nicolás Lynch, "held direct conversations with the Argentine Security Minister, Nilda Garré, with the aim of transmitting the Peruvian government's rejection of the activities of said group in Argentina. At that time, the Peruvian Ambassador gave the Argentine authorities police information about Movadef's prior acts and current activities."
"As the government continues to gather information about Movadef's activities abroad through diplomatic channels and police cooperation, the Foreign Minister added that it had instructed all Peruvian diplomatic missions to preventatively inform the authorities in each country on the nature and record of the organization" continued the text.
The response was provoked by online reports that representatives of Movadef, a political party recently banned in Peru due to their connections with the Shining Path guerrilla group that terrorized the country in the 1980s, had met this week with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Adolfo Pérez Esquivel and the Mothers of Plaza de Mayo.
Peruvian anti-terrorism prosecutor Julio Galindo was reported in Peruvian media describing Movadef as a "clandestine group that is not even recorded in Public Registers or in the national Electoral Register of Political Parties," which is why it was not necessary for the Foreign Ministry to issue the statements.
At the end of April, the Peruvian government protested to Chile over a demonstration held in Santiago supporting the Shining Path. The protesters demanded the release of Abimael Guzmán, the head of the movement, and other members of the group. Movadef, which stands for the Movement for Amnesty and Fundamental Rights, has been trying to register itself as a political group for the past year, without success.
Shining Path was defeated militarily and politically in 1992, with the capture of Guzmán, who is currently serving a life sentence. However, a group consisting of remnants of the Shining Path is currently active in the valley of the Apurímac and Ene Rivers, allied with drug smugglers and constantly involved in skirmishes with security forces and have ambushed and killed several members of the Peruvian police and army.

There is an ever growing number of people eagerly awaiting the news of an Apple HDTV release. The Apple TV set, we believe, is the product that Apple is working on to help them in the process of taking over the worlds living rooms. Though there are many who doubt that Apple will ever make this leap, Apple fans, and investors alike, are following this story with great interest. Thanks to the folks over at CNN NEWS, we were able to get some information found in a note to clients, Morgan Stanley's Katy Huberty, issued Tuesday about what she calls "iTV." Note the difference between an iTV (a TV set) and an Apple TV (current set-top box).
Apple television
The Wall Street Journal reports that Apple it testing several TV-set designs. According to WSJ, "officials at some of Apple's suppliers" said the company has been working on testing a few designs for a "large-screen high-resolution TV":
Rumors have been swirling for nigh on a year now about what would come to pass when Apple finally delivers its television. Not that the Apple TV is any slouch mind you, but visions of a fully integrated Apple HDTV have had experts and fanboys alike drooling. News about a possible release schedule and what could be expected of this hardware has been slow to nonexistent in recent months leaving many people filling that informational void with speculation. One particularly juicy daydream was just delivered by our friend over at The Verge and we simply had to pass it on. So here is one die-hard's dream of the perfect Apple TV.
Tech bloggers, including ourselves, have been buzzing hard about the hush development of an Apple television set for quite some time now. While the Apple TV set top box has been quite successful, it still requires a non-Apple piece of hardware to operate. Well, according to some whispers overheard on Barrons, those days may be drawing to a close.
Apple TV is continuing to push its way into more and more American households, and the content distributors are slowly but surely falling in line. CBS has been ridiculously slow to embrace streaming options, only recently agreeing to allow their content to be sold on Amazon and Netflix. And according to AllThingsD, CBS' Chief Executive Officer Les Moonves has declared publicly that he'd be willing to place their programming on Apple TV as well.
Mountain Lion, a new version of Mac OS X that has been unveiled in February, is now available to download from the Mac App Store for $19.99. Mountain Lion comes with more than 200 new features including the all new Messages app, Game Center, Facebook integration, Notification Center, Power Nap Dictation and Gatekeeper. But the coolest feature of Mountain Lion is undoubtedly AirPlay Mirroring that lets you wirelessly send an up-to-1080p stream of what's on your Mac to an HDTV using Apple TV 2 or Apple TV 3 or send audio to a receiver or speakers that use AirPlay.

DOHA: Qatar bourse advanced broadly yesterday with the index breaking the 13,000 levels, fifth time this year, triggered by retail investors' buying interests. The main index soared by 1.40 percent to close at 13,173 points.
Telecoms sector rose the most with Ooredoo rising 3.04 percent. Ooredoo announced Saturday that it had opened its Myanmar mobile market with low-cost SIM card. UDC, Electricity and Water and QIB were the top gainers, with UDC surging 4.50 percent. Market cap jumped to QR699bn from the previous session's QR693bn.
Analysts attributed the uptrend to the fairly good numbers delivered by blue chips for the second quarter . A preliminary analysis showed the combined net profit of 35 listed companies on Qatar bourse touched QR17.6bn in the first half of 2014, reflecting an estimated 13 percent increase in the collective net profit of all the listed companies a year ago.
Recording a collective profit of QR9.5bn, up 7 percent year-on-year, the banking and financial services sector is the largest contributor to the collective profit, Al Sharq reported.
"In Qatar, foreign institutions turned net buyers in July. After selling $46.6m of equities in June on a net basis, foreigners bought $137.3m in July, restoring the positive injections recorded in April and May. So far, foreign institutions have bought (on a net basis) $2.02bn in 2014, compared to a total inflow of just around $700m in 2013 and outflow of approximately $900m in 2012", QNB analysts said yesterday.
The analysts noted Qatar, which rose 12.1 percent in July, was the second best performing index of the month in the region, after Dubai which surged 22.6 percent month-on-month.
Except insurance sector, all other sector indices were bullish yesterday. Banks and financial services index appreciated 0.90 percent and consumer sector was up by 0.88 percent. Industrials gained 1.49 percent, while real estate rose 1.44 percent and transportation gained 0.88 percent.
The combined value of banking stocks rose to QR261m from QR230m. Consumer sector's value increased to QR98m from QR89m, while industrials rose to QR146m from QR117m.
However, total traded value slid to QR789m from the previous sessions's QR871mn. Total traded volume tumbled to 18 million shares from 23 million shares.
NBK noted in its latest economic update that Qatar was one of the major drivers behind the GCC rallies in the first five month of 2014. Strong corporate profitability, which picked up and is expected to continue to improve, fed into the regional rally, they said.

Tornasol, La Fabrique du Film pact on pic
SAN SEBASTIAN, Spain — Alex de la Iglesia will direct tragicomedy "Balada triste de trompeta," which is set up as a co-production between Spain's Tornasol Films and France's La Fabrique du Film.
The same two companies were behind De la Iglesia's 2008 hit "The Oxford Murders," which starred Elijah Wood. Distribbed by Warner Bros., "Murders" took Euros8.2 million ($11.7 million) in Spain, making it the highest-grossing Spanish film of last year.
Defined by De la Iglesia as a "grotesque tragedy," the Spanish-language "Balada" turns on two clowns who fall in love with the same femme trapeze artist at a circus in Spain in 1973.
"Balada" will shoot from January from a De la Iglesia screenplay in Madrid and at Alicante's Ciudad de la Luz studios. Its ensemble cast includes Antonio de la Torre ("Gordos") and Carlos Areces (Muchahada Nui") as the clowns and Carolina Bang ("Pluton B.R.B. Nero") as the trapeze artist.
Carmen Maura ("Volver"), Juan Luis Galiardo ("Miguel and William") and Enrique Villen ("Seven Billiard Tables") will take character roles.
"Balada" is one of 29 feature films that pubcaster RTVE has pre-bought for Spain this year, Gustavo Ferrada, head of cinema at RTVE's TV arm, TVE, announced Thursday at San Sebastian during a press conference jointly hosted by TVE and Spanish producers' association Fapae.
Further pre-buys include Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu's Javier Bardem starrer "Biutiful" and "Black Thorn," the second directorial outing from Mateo Gil, who co-wrote many of Alejandro Amenabar's pics with the director, such as "Abre los ojos" and "The Sea Inside." Pic will shoot first half 2010, and is produced by Ariete and Arcadia Motion Pics.
TVE director Javier Pons announced that La 2, TVE's culture channel, would program a movie every day of weekday primetime. Four nights would be dedicated to Spanish-language movies, he added.
Praising TVE as "Spain's biggest source of support for Spanish cinema," Fapae prexy Pedro Perez announced that revenues from the international sales of Spanish movies dropped 29.3% last year to Euros40.4 million ($57.7 million). TV exports in contrast rose 4.4% in value to $52.3 million.
Spanish films market share for this year is 12.3% down on 2008. However, with Amenabar's "Agora" and toon pic "Planet 51" to bow later in the year, Perez said he was confident 2009 would finally be up on 2008.

Many Thanks.
A brief description of the project:
The Encyclopedia of Love is the first comprehensive reference book on the subject of love in world religions from antiquity to our contemporary period. The aim of the Encyclopedia is to inform the reader of the extent and richness of religious teachings on love by offering an extensive range of topics and discussion of literature that have philosophic, psychological, and religious meaning and application to everyday life. The Encyclopedia of Love will have approximately 200 entries and will include a selection of culture-specific terms, texts and thinkers, as well as general concepts that have cross-cultural analogues.

Christmas is one of the busiest times of year for any bakery and Carlo's City Hall Bakery in Hoboken is no exception - reality show or no reality show.
Still, "Cake Boss" Buddy Valastro found time to make his way down route 78 to The Mall at Short Hills to drop in on guests of the Continental VIP Lounge from Chase.
The lounge is a special area of the mall where Continental Chase card-members can drop their shopping bags and take a load off while enjoying complimentary gift-wrapping, refreshments and even a massage every day through Christmas Eve.
On Saturday, the pampered guests even got a chance to meet the "Cake Boss" himself as he delivered some sweets straight from the kitchens at Carlo's.

2010 fiction:
Probably the greatest casualty of grad school has been my ability to keep up with newly published fiction. For many readers and many critics, this is no tragedy: the common assumption of the critics rounded up by the NYTBR for a seminar on
At any rate, what new books did I read? I read The Ask, by Sam Lipsyte, about which I had high hopes after having read Home Land a few years ago. The Ask didn't disappoint; it's a great novel in all dimensions. I think, though, if you haven't read Lipsyte before but have been intrigued, I would read The Ask first; Home Land is so much more spontaneous but not quite as involving, and I think both books would look their best read in that order. But read both. I also read Alejandro Zambra's The Private Life of Trees which, on the other hand, should definitely be read after Zambra's previous effort, Bonsai, as Zambra plays a couple mini-meta- or intertextual games. I remember hearing that The Private Life of Trees is not quite as good as Bonsai, but I would say that it is worth reading regardless; after all, it is very short—if one finds it in a bookstore, one could read it without drawing attention for loitering.
Then there is Freedom, which I already wrote about here. I am of two very different minds about the novel's reception: it's not worth all the fuss, but it's also good enough to be worth fighting for against its most obnoxious bashers.
Comics/Graphic Novels:
I had a pretty enjoyable year, although in large part that's the product of knowing so little about the medium; nearly everything impresses me. But some of the titles I read—Asterios Polyp, Sandman, Ex Machina, James Sturm's The Golem's Mighty Swing, Joe Sacco's The Fixer—have impressed a lot of other people as well, to say the least. I tried Grant Morrison's The Invisibles and, well, I'm going just to assume I'm not a Grant Morrison person.
Major novels/classics:
I think I did an adequate job filling in some gaps this year; the big project was John Dos Passos's U.S.A., but I also really enjoyed reading Vanity Fair, Call It Sleep, Tess of the D'Urbervilles, The Ambassadors, Fathers and Sons, The Octopus, The Education of Henry Adams, The House of Mirth, Billy Budd, Sister Carrie, Uncle Tom's Cabin, Le Père Goriot, and, way back at the beginning of the year, Middlemarch. I should have had something to say about Vanity Fair, Call It Sleep and Tess; I think I have mentioned all the others on here in one way or another, but unfortunately the fall semester got away from me. Allow me to say now, though, that Call It Sleep is dull for about 100 pages, and then is among the best lyrical writing in American literary history for the next 250 pages or so, and the ending is among the finest in all of literature.
Short novels:
Some that I have not mentioned, but deserve to be highlighted: Miramar, by Naguib Mahfouz; Wittgenstein's Mistress, by David Markson; Old Masters, by Thomas Bernhard; Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, by Jeanette Winterson; So Long a Letter, by Mariama Bâ; Bread Givers, by Anzia Yezierska.
Other odds and ends: Diary of a Nobody and Cranford are two books of rather similar temperament: they both seem like they could be filmed by Mike Leigh and would turn out very well.
The Thirty-Nine Steps, by John Buchan, is as good as the film, which for a suspenser directed by Alfred Hitchcock is pretty large praise (can you say it about any others? maybe Strangers on a Train, although I haven't read it).
The Virgin Suicides, by Jeffrey Eugenides, was an alright novel, although I feel rather indifferent about it which, given the subject matter, was not likely Eugenides's intention. It's entirely possible I did not give it sufficient attention, though; I read most of it on an airplane ride, an environment which I think is conducive to some wonderful reading experiences (I read the whole of Netherland on a cross-country flight and that was nearly perfect), while others I think require the different pressure of solitude and reflection; a metal tube crowded with people is probably not ideal.
I cannot recommend highly enough two very unusual histories of popular music, both of which focus on how sound is recorded and manipulated post-recording: Albin Zak's The Poetics of Rock and Greg Milner's Perfecting Sound Forever. Both will in all likelihood vastly change how you think about not just the technological processes that shape what we hear, but also the social processes—the experiential recalibrations that are brought about by being enveloped by certain types of sounds—that shape how we hear, what we think music "sounds like," and what are good sounds.
Also recommended are some excellent histories of specific genres or artists: Louis Armstrong's New Orleans, by Thomas Brothers; Voice of Egypt: Umm Kulthum, Arabic Song, and Egyptian Society in the Twentieth Century, by Virginia Danielson; Linthead Stomp: The Creation of Country Music in the Piedmont South, by Patrick Huber; and Sound of Africa! Making Music Zulu in a South African Studio, by Louise Meintjes.
Those books were assigned in a course I took this fall about the history of recorded vernacular musics; in another course, which covered the rise of the "new middle class" (and, to some extent, the supposed "decline" of the genteel society) from the Civil War through the Great Depression, I would like particularly to praise George Fredrickson's The Inner Civil War; Highbrow/Lowbrow (covered here); The New Radicalism (covered here and here); Making America Corporate, by Olivier Zunz; and Selling Culture, by Richard Ohmann, which I'm having some trouble getting around to posting about, but which I intend to, I promise! It really is an immensely useful and brilliant book; it's like reading about fifteen histories all at once of the rise of mass culture, advertising, and what Warren Susman calls the culture of abundance. Zunz's book is much shorter but is also really incredible at synthesizing a number of different ways of thinking about the cultural and economic transformations that were occurring across the continent at the turn of the century. Few straight-up social or economic histories that I have read use literature and culture so effectively and so imaginatively. And I really cannot say enough good things about Fredrickson's book.
Well, that's about all the books I care to talk about for now, and my apologies for the abbreviated and probably unhelpful nature of this hodge-podge omnibus. I hope I can do better this year at keeping pace on this blog with my reading. Happy new year!

In a marketplace dominated by big smart phone companies, it's rare to see a very small company try to go for it on its own. There are, however, a few brave souls who think they can take on the might of the multinationals, including a Swiss company called Zenum.
Over the past couple of months, Zenum has created an online buzz about a device codenamed the Zenum Opus Operis. Bloggers everywhere were drooling over the Opus's sexy case and Qwerty keypad, but few had managed to actually see it in real life.
We've been lucky enough to get a hands-on with it and from what we can see so far, it's not bad at all. The Zenum Opus, as it is now known, runs on Windows Mobile 6 Professional, features a 64mm (2.5-inch) touchscreen and a full Qwerty keypad.
At first sight it bears some similarities with Nokia's wedge-like smart phone, the E61, but there are some notable differences. For starters it runs on Windows Mobile 6, which means you have access to programs such as Windows Live and Messenger, among many other features.
On the back there's a 2-megapixel camera that can shoot still pictures and video and is protected by a silver cover. Around the edge of the handset there's an attractive silver border that differentiates it from many of the all-in-black handsets out there.
The Zenum also has a touchscreen, which means that rather than having to navigate through every section via fiddly buttons, you can just tap the screen when you need to. Other useful features include infrared, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity and an expandable miniSD slot.
The full Qwerty keypad is relatively easy to use, although the keys do feel a little squashed together and there's no scroll wheel or pearl-like trackball to navigate, instead you need to use the four-way navigation key or the touch screen, which may annoy some users.
Overall we're quite impressed with this offering from such a small company and our only niggle is the lack of quad-band GSM connectivity and 3G -- but this, we're assured by the people at Zenum, is coming in future models.
The Zenum will be available in September for about £481 from eXpansys. -Andrew Lim

After a tightly contested first half, the Wayland Union boys basketball team dug in and defeated Lansing Catholic 64-55 in a Class B boys basketball regional semifinal played Monday at Spring Arbor University.
Wayland Union led 30-28 at halftime.
"It was a tight first quarter, and a tighter second," Wayland coach Mike Hudson said. "We got in some foul trouble early, which forced us to rotate guys in back and forth and made it difficult to get into rhythm."
Four Wayland Union student-athletes -- Dilon Aten, Lacey James, Keagan Smith-Ritz and Avery Hudson -- scored in double-figures.
Aten paced Wayland Union with 19 points, five rebounds and four steals. Smith-Ritz scored 11 points, while Hudson notched 10. James added 14 points and 10 rebounds, despite three early fouls.
"Putting James on the bench hurt, but we had some other guys like Ritz-Smith and Aten step up and make shots," coach Hudson said. "That helped to give us some separation in the third quarter."
Wayland Union led by as many as 12 points in the third quarter, and outscored Lansing Catholic 18-16 in the fourth.
"Down the stretch, we tried to move the ball well and keep passing, we got Lansing Catholic to foul and we made our free throws," coach Hudson said. "It was what we needed to do to finish, and I'm proud of our guys for getting it done."
Tony Poljan paced Lansing Catholic with 29 points, while David Poljan scored 12.
Wayland Union (20-4, 8-2 OK Gold) will get its first chance at a regional final "in a long time" in a game set to tip-off 7 p.m. Wednesday at Spring Arbor University against Jackson Lumen Christi (23-1, 11-1 CAAC Gold).
"We're excited to keep playing," coach Hudson said. "We have not played Lumen before, but this matchup feels familiar. Ottawa Hills, as well as a few other teams on our schedule this year, is a similar team to Lumen in respect to quickness, and we feel equipped to step up to the challenge."

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy should not be interjecting himself into a labor dispute between union workers and the Lawrence + Memorial Hospital administration. It his job to run the state, not tell L+M how to run its hospital.
On Thursday the governor's office went public with a letter Gov. Malloy sent to Bruce Cummings, the hospital's CEO. The letter reads as if written by the labor unions at the hospital, and demands "a response and explanation" for administration actions that trouble the governor. There is no hint of recognition by the governor of the challenges the hospital administration faces as both private insurers and the government Medicare and Medicaid programs tighten reimbursement payments and try to squeeze savings out of hospitals and other health service providers.
This is not to say the bargaining units are not raising legitimate concerns. Some services once provided at the hospital are now delivered by affiliates, but the union jobs did not move with them. The bargaining units also question why the hospital did not offer jobs at the affiliated operations to union workers who were cut in a recent round of layoffs. Organized laborers in cafeteria and environmental services jobs are justifiably raising questions about reports that L+M is exploring contracting out these services.
The point is that there are processes and protections in place to address these issues. The National Labor Relations Board will hold a hearing Monday on a union complaint that the hospital administration violated labor laws and the contract by moving jobs to affiliated offices. Negotiations are underway for a new contract.
We recognize Gov. Malloy is a loyal backer of organized labor. Its support will be critical to him in a likely re-election bid in 2014. His spokesman, Andrew Doba, notes the governor's mother was a nurse and the services demanded of health care workers are dear to him.
But he also claims to be a pro-business governor. It does not send a pro-business message that the Connecticut governor is not content with assuring that labor unions are fairly protected by law and regulation, but will personally intervene to put the power of his office behind one party - labor.
Mr. Cummings is particularly galled that the governor would challenge the hospital's labor policies after persuading the legislature to adopt a policy change effectively reducing by $18 million state revenues L+M had been counting on over the next two years. On that count, the CEO is shedding a few crocodile tears. L+M is fiscally solid. Substantial state and federal revenues continue to flow to the institution.
However, Mr. Cummings is on target when stating that "serious and complex issues � are better discussed in a non-political manner than fed to the media at the behest of the unions."

U.S. Pork Supply Climbs 20% From a Year Ago, USDA Says
Pork stockpiles in the U.S. were 20 percent higher at the end of June than a year earlier, the government said.
Warehouses held 591.7 million pounds (268,384 metric tons) of the meat, up from 495.1 million on June 30, 2011, the U.S. Department of Agriculture said today in a report. Inventories fell 7 percent from the end of May.
While commercial pork output in June fell from the previous month, May production was at a record, USDA data show. For the six month through June 30, output rose to 11.376 billion pounds, up 2.6 percent from the same period in 2011, USDA data show. The gains in May contributed to the inventory boost, said Bob Brown, an independent market consultant in Edmond, Oklahoma.
Production has "been high all year," Brown said in a telephone interview before the report. "Anytime you have a big increase in production, freezer stocks go up a little bit."
Hog futures for October settlement fell 0.3 percent to settle at 79.8 cents a pound at 1 p.m. on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The commodity has declined 5.3 percent this year.
As of June 30, stockpiles of pork bellies, which are cured and sliced to make bacon, rose 0.9 percent from a year earlier to 49.1 million pounds, according to today's report. Warehouse supplies of ham surged 18 percent to 147.4 million pounds.
Chicken-meat inventories at the end of June were 14 percent smaller than a year earlier at 647.3 million pounds, the USDA said. Beef supplies rose 8.8 percent to 470.8 million pounds.

"Most natural science classes at LSSU offer students as much hands-on experience (lab hours) as lecture hours, which ensures that the university experience prepares us for the real world careers, whether you work at a desk or out in the field, or both. There are endless advantages and opportunities available to LSSU students due to its location on an international border.
I found my career path on campus when my advisor posted a job for the Bi-national Public Advisory Council (BPAC), a group dedicated to and overseeing the clean-up the St. Mary's River. I was able to gain experience and network on both sides of the border, ultimately finding full-time employment before I graduated with my biology degree."
Jessica Hirt
"One of my favorite things about LSSU is its size. The classrooms, especially as you get to the upper levels, get smaller, so you not only have a chance to discuss your ideas in an honest, supportive manner, but you also get to know your professors and classmates. The upper level courses really allow you to focus on what you love, and the small class size allows you to have time to share and to discuss your ideas."

In the Asian session this morning, WTI crude oil gained 0.18% as the global oil demand has grown considerably in the past decade or so, rising from about 76 million barrels per day (mbpd) in 1999 to around 90 mbpd to date as per data from Menafin.
Crude oil futures traded steadily above $92 per barrel in early trades, after pipeline carrying Canadian oil to the United States was shut for 3-days, adding to supply worries heightened by tensions in the oil-producing Gulf region. However, oil prices later declined to close lower, on stronger dollar and demand concerns. Brent crude prices fell for the fourth straight session, dragged down by fresh global economic concerns and expectations a major Canadian crude oil pipeline to the United States would restart on schedule.
Last week's EIA inventory damped any enthusiasm in WTI due to the strong build in EIA crude oil inventories. The report stated: U.S. commercial crude oil inventories (excluding those in the Strategic Petroleum Reserve) increased by 2.9 million barrels from the previous week. At 369.2 million barrels, U.S. crude oil inventories are above the upper limit of the average range for this time of year.
Crude oil futures moved lower, weighed down by broad based weakness in the commodity complex. However, oil prices have managed to sustain above the psychological levels of US$90/bbl. Supply disruption at an oil pipeline, transporting Canadian crude oil to the United States, is providing considerable measure of support to the energy complex. In the latest, TransCanada Corp has stated that the restart of its 590,000 barrel per day Keystone oil pipeline would be delayed until today, a day later than expected.
Last week's data dump from China also weighed heavily on crude oil, with China's growth falling to 7.4% tumbling all year. The report came in at expectations, but markets were hoping for a better than expected report. This morning Japan reported a continued widening of their trade balance Japan's exports fell a bigger‐than‐expected 10.3% in September from a year earlier, with exports to China slumping 14.1% in the year to September.
Tension between Syria and Turkey remain high, but have leveled off over the past few days, while the Israel-Iranian rhetoric quiet and rumors are that the Iranian's are willing to make concessions over their nuclear development in light of the global embargo, which is hurting the Iranian economy. Oil is expected to remain in the low 90's or possibility dips into the 89 range unless tensions or news elevate it.
Natural Gas continues to mystify the markets. Natural gas rallied to a 10-month high last week on NYMEX, on speculation that above-normal demand from electricity generators will help reduce a supply surplus. There are no storms or weather phenomenon in the picture or increased heating or cooling demands at present. NG is being supported by positive eco data from the US as traders are beginning to see the recovery moving out of stall mode.

On February 9, FDA issued long-awaited guidelines designed, according to FDA drug division director Janet Woodcock, M.D., "to help industry develop biosimilar versions of currently approved biological products." Paul Calvo, Ph.D., a director at Sterne, Kessler, Goldstein & Fox, told GEN, "There were no major surprises" in the guidelines.
"It is clear that FDA wants to move forward with biosimilar approvals and they will be looking to a totality of the evidence as the standard for a determination of biosimilarity."
He also commented that FDA wants a constant dialog with biosimilar sponsors and all the structural and functional data up front. "Their goal for the up-front data is to be involved in design of the clinical trials in order to maximize the data provided."
FDA's new documents describe a step-wise approval pathway, starting with extensive analytical, physicochemical, and biological characterization data that will have to demonstrate a high degree of similarity to the reference product. FDA will evaluate that data and then provide advice to the sponsor on the extent and scope of animal and human testing needed to show biosimilarity.
The agency will consider multiple factors in making study determinations, including product complexity, formulation, stability, structure-function relationships, manufacturing process, and clinical experience with the reference product.
While the pathway to the agency's decision making will be abbreviated, "it will depend on existing data," Rachel Sherman, M.D., director of the Office of Medical Policy in FDA's Center for Drug Evaluation and Research, said during a conference call.
"We do not want companies repeating studies that do not need to be done." As to whether most biosimilar applicants will be expected to carry out clinical trials, decisions will be made on a product by product basis.
Another topic of note is that the FDA has said that there could be extrapolation of clinical data to other diseases to give companies developing biosimilars approval for use in multiple indications for a given product. "But for therapeutics like Rituxan with two disparate indications, one for lymphoma and another for rheumatoid arthiritis, two sets of clinical trials will likely be required," Dr. Calvo explained.
Importantly for the industry, the guidance documents indicate that the agency hasn't settled some important biosimilars policy questions, including requirements for demonstrating interchangeability of a biosimilar with a reference product and terms for establishing the exclusivity period for pioneer biologics.
The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, signed into law by President Barack Obama on March 23, 2010, mandated the creation of an abbreviated approval pathway for biosimilars and proposed a 12-year data exclusivity period. The president's budget proposal for fiscal 2013 released February 13, however, suggests that exclusivity should be lowered to seven years.
With regard to interchangeability, FDA states that it "is continuing to consider the type of information sufficient to enable FDA to determine that a biological product is interchangeable with the reference product." Dr. Calvo explained that "interchangeability is important because it provides for a period of market exclusivity as well for automatic substitution of the interchangeable for the approved biologic without intervention from the prescribing physician."
"However," Dr. Calvo added, "given how new the whole process for biosimilar approval is, it would have been surprising if the FDA would have said there would not be any issues in determining interchangeability." But, he noted, the agency has said that right now it doesn't have the scientific ability to approve biosimilars as interchangeable.
An Amgen spokesperson commented that "FDA's acknowledgement that determining interchangeability is scientifically difficult at this time is important. Patient safety does not stop at approval, and Amgen believes that post-approval activities including ongoing monitoring are essential to patient safety."
Dr. Sherman believes that the hurdles for interchangeability would be high. Biologic drugs carry the added risk of prompting an immune response, she noted, and the FDA would "almost certainly" require clinical trials in which a patient is switched from the branded drug to the biosimilar and back to rule out the risk of triggering the immune system.
Dr. Calvo pointed out that "the ability to have a high level of FDA input will likely increase the chance that biosimilars will soon enter the U.S. market." However, he added, the price erosion that occurs with small molecules "will not happen for biosimilars to even close to the extent that it occurs with small molecules, mainly because there will not be a mechanism for automatic substitution and because clinical studies will be required at least to some degree."
For more complex products such as antibody conjugates or highly purified protein mixtures, "it is highly likely that more sophisticated manufacturing and analytical methods and possibly clinical trials will be required, therefore increasing costs for biosimilar entrants," Jefferies analyst Biren Amin said in a note to clients.
The Congressional Budget Office still estimates that biosimilars would save the government $25 billion in healthcare spending during the coming decade. While generic chemical compounds like Norvasc and Metoprolol usually sell for less than 20% the cost of the brand product, biosimilars are expected to sell for 60% to 80% of the cost of branded biologics. The difficulty of producing and gaining approval for biosimilars will provide manufacturers increased pricing power and larger margins compared to traditional generic medications.
Biosimilars represent a tremendous opportunity for pharma and biotech companies that can successfully manufacture and market them. The global market for biosimilars will range between $11 billion and $25 billion by 2020, accounting for 4 to 10 percent of the total market for biotech drugs, according to IMS Health.
Despite the potential hurdles to both interchangeability and exclusivity, patent expiries in the next two years put around $11 billion in biologic drug sales into play. That kind of potential along with the establishment of a designated approval pathway clears away some lingering doubts about the viability of generic competition.
As for the industry, potential biosimilar manufacturers continue to make deals. While there are no currently marketed biosimilars in the U.S., so-called innovator companies have joined the ranks of generic firms in developing biosimilars.
Amgen told GEN that as a provider of biologic medicines, it understands the challenges of developing and manufacturing innovative and biosimilar medicines and appreciates the agency's efforts on the guidelines, and encourages adoption of a thorough review and approval process.
While it remains to be seen whether approved biosimilars provide the savings in healthcare costs that the Congressional Budget Office optimistically predicted, both the FDA and the industry are moving toward making them a reality in the U.S.
As per the three dozen or so requests for meetings, FDA staffers are holding pre-IND meetings with sponsors and encouraging all prospective biosimilar makers to seek early advice. Nine INDs for biosimilar have been filed so far.

Welcome to Dental Implants!
Lose a tooth? Suffering from loose dentures?
Dental implants offer many people the ability to once again have functional, attractive dentition. For denture wearers, dental implants can work as fastening devices. The old time rock and roll dentures can be history.
Dr. Hettinger offers affordable dental implants in the Orlando and Central Florida region without sacrificing excellent quality.
What is a dental implant?
Let's start with a few basics.
Every tooth in your mouth has two primary parts, one visible and one hidden (but very important).
The visible part is the crown, the white enamel-covered block which you commonly call your tooth.
But an equally important part of a tooth is its "root", the portion of the tooth under the surface of your gums, which supports and connects the tooth into the bone within your jaw.
A dental implant replaces the root with an artificial device, usually made of titanium. Dental implants became possible with the discovery in the 1950's that a titanium screw, inserted into bone became fused to that bone. This fusion-induced stability (ankylosis) allows a tooth's crown (the visible part) to later be placed on the dental implant, looking and functioning almost identically to a natural tooth. (If you'd like a more technical definition of dental implant, check out Wikipedia's definition.)
How much do dental implants cost?
We created this handy chart below to help you. Dr. Hettinger offers one of the most competitive, affordable implant services not just in Florida but in the U.S. Compared to nationally established rates, we can save you over $1294 per tooth (more than 60%) while restoring your beautful smile.
Are you aware of all three parts you must purchase?
The three parts of a dental implant are the metal implant itself, the abutment and the placed crown.No patient wants an implant alone. An implant is a gray, metal, dental device ("screw") which is placed into the bone beneath the gums. What you want is an attractive, functional prosthetic tooth to replace the one you have lost. To get the tooth (crown) you must also have an implant and a connecting device called an abutment. When you are researching your options, be sure that you have planned for all three components, plus surgical analgesia and preliminary diagnostic services such as exams, x-rays, models, consultations, etc. Only then can you make a valid comparison.
Why are dental implants recommended replacements for missing teeth?
A dental implant with an abutment and crown placed on it can look and feel just like your own natural tooth. With good patient maintenance, implants can last a lifetime.
Long-term studies continue to show improving success rates for implants, with an overall 95% success rate. This enjoyable infographic summarizes in a glance some of the facts and benefits of dental implants.
Who is a candidate for dental implants?
- Dental implants are an ideal option for people in good general oral health who have lost a tooth or teeth due to an injury or some other reason. Your gums should be in good health. Certainly smoking jeopardizes your chances of success. You might want to check out our 5 minute survey, " What is Your Dental Implant IQ?"
What is included in My Orlando Dentist's $1995 dental implant service fee?
We pride ourselves in offering one of the best prices for dental implants in Central Florida and nationwide. When comparing dental implant prices across different dental offices, always remember to ask about all dental implant related fees. Our $1995 fee covers the following:
- Limited oral exam D0140
- Panoramic x-ray D0330
- Planning and consultation D9310
- Radiographic implant index D6190
- Local anesthesia D9215
- Nitrous oxide D9230
- Implant and surgical placement D6010
- Healing abutment D6199
- Writing of Prescriptions (pre and post-op) D9999
- Crown, porcelain/ceramic which is abutment supported D6058
- Crown abutment(different from healing abutment) D6060
Additional fees apply for any required CAT scan, surgical guide or customizations.

Social Media is wonderful. I can get information on anything from riots to recipes to jokes to downright awful news. The latter was the Twittersphere on Monday evening.
With the reports from Tim May coming out of Columbus, all of Buckeye Nation turned their collective sights to the Woody Hayes Athletic Center for a morsel, a snippet of information or confirmation that Senior starting QB and Heisman Trophy contender Braxton Miller had reinjured his shoulder and could be lost for the season.
With no official word on his status as of this writing, I personally trend towards a cautious approach. Miller was poised to bring unrivaled greatness back to the confines of the Horseshoe and was projected to not only be one of the frontrunners for the Heisman but was expected to lead his team into the inaugural College Football Playoff. Those chances are diminished now, but bear with me as I drop a bold prediction on you.
Ohio State, no matter if Braxton Miller ever takes another snap, will win the Big Ten Championship and will participate in the playoff.
"But Chris," you'll say, "who will lead us to the promised land if not the anointed one?"
That's easy. Urban Meyer.
Harken back to the end of the 2013 campaign. Ohio State had just lost two in a row after a perfect regular season, in somewhat embarrassing fashion. Not many fans expected Miller to return for his Senior year. The Buckeyes seemed to be preparing to move on from the Braxton Miller era and embracing the Cardale Jones/J.T. Barrett regime.
It was then that the word "trust" was bandied about. Trust in Urban. Trust in the staff. Trust in the program. Trust in E+O=R.
So I ask of you, my fellow fans in fury, to trust. Just as all of you trusted at the end of last season, I ask you to do the same now. This exact situation is what we were all preparing for right up until Braxton announced that he was returning for his Senior season. The day when Urban would have to give the ball to another signal caller was always going to come.
Miller will have an MRI on his shoulder that should further clarify the picture and his status for the season. I only ask that you step back from the ledge until the official word comes down. We've seen this script before. Granted, Kenny Guiton is not suiting up on Saturdays any longer, and Barrett is an unproven commodity, but you still must trust.
If Braxton is out for the season, that likely ends his Ohio State career. We won't know until the MRI results come back and Miller and Urban have had a chance to talk to some medical professionals. However, I still posit that this team, this particular team, can still be special even without number 5 under center.
All we have to do is trust.

Efficient Payments and Price Distribution

Strasbourg University, LARGE; EM Strasbourg Business School; Telecom ParisTech
September 4, 2009
The studies dealing with the efficiency of monetary denomination systems are usually based on a restrictive assumption: prices paid cash are assumed to be evenly distributed in the economy. Using an empirical (observed) distribution of prices in the French economy, this paper measures the losses in efficiency when using a uniform distribution of prices. We show that i. the average number of tokens used in transactions when observed prices are concerned is around two times less than that obtained when prices are evenly distributed; ii. considering a uniform distribution of prices leads to overestimate the average frequency of use of larger denominations and to underestimate the average frequency of use of lower denominations, at least the one euro denomination; iii. the probability of existence of a price, the number of occurences of a price, the proportion of lower prices and, finally, the proportion of round prices are central to explain the observed payment efficiency. At the end, the simulations provide useful clues to better understanding how and why the price distribution affects payment efficiency.

Parliament Backs Sharif, Imran Flays US at Protest
By IANS
Published: 21st August 2014 11:53 PM
Last Updated: 21st August 2014 11:55 PM
ISLAMABAD: Parliament rallied behind Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif Thursday as an unrelenting opposition leader Imran Khan warned the US not to interfere in Pakistan's domestic politics.
Many thousands of opposition activists continued their protest in the heart of Islamabad for the seventh straight day demanding the resignation of Sharif, saying the 2013 election he won was rigged.
Cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan's outburst against the US came after the US, eager to prevent an army coup, came out in support of Sharif saying Pakistan had an "elected government in place".
Addressing the thousands of cheering supporters, Imran Khan, leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI), denounced the US.
Khan accused the US of interfering in Pakistan's internal affairs and asked it to withdraw its statement on the political crisis that has politically split the Islamic nation.
He called the Sharif government a "servant of the US" that "polishes the shoes of the Americans".
Saying he was familiar with the American and British systems, Imran Khan said the US would never accept a rigged election, on which ground he wants Sharif to go.
"If an election took place in the US and a Congressman said a majority of the votes could not be verified, wouldn't that constitute a full blown inquiry in America?" Dawn quoted Imran Khan as asking.
Earlier Thursday, Pakistan's parliament unanimously passed a resolution rejecting demands by Imran Khan and Tahir ul Qadri of the Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) for Sharif's resignation and parliament's dissolution.
Sharif has refused to quit but agreed to discuss other demands of the two parties including a call for investigation into alleged rigging in last year's parliamentary election.
On Wednesday, a court issued notices to Imran Khan and Qadri restraining them from trespassing into prohibited zones in the country's capital.
The protesters reached Islamabad Aug 15 and have refused to move out, triggering speculation that a restive Pakistani military might step in to end the impasse.
The Pakistan Supreme Court Thursday ordered the PTI to file a concise statement by Friday on a petition filed against the party over its ongoing protests.
A five-judge larger bench headed by Chief Justice Nasirul Mulk passed the order.
Advocate Asma Jahangir said the court supported the right to freedom of expression and always encouraged this right but an impression was being created as if the right was absolute.
According to the constitution, freedom of expression and right of assembly were subject to some reasonable restriction, she said.
PTI argued it believed in peaceful methods and was against any extra-constitutional steps.
Another judge, Justice Anwar Saeed Khan Khosa, remarked that it was ironic that while people were claiming to abide by the constitution, the Constitution Avenue in Islamabad was blocked by protesters.
He said the PTI should at least move away from the Constitution Avenue.

Vets group endorses Gabbard
Democrat Tulsi Gabbard has received an endorsement in her bid for the 2nd Congressional District seat from the Veterans & Military Families for Progress Group, according to an announcement.
The group is dedicated to ensuring that the rights and needs of veterans, active-duty service members (including National Guard troops and reservists) and their families are understood by the American public, endorsed by elected officials and protected by legislation, regulation and public policy initiatives.
Gabbard, a captain in the Hawaii National Guard, chose to leave elected office to serve in the Middle East with her 29th Brigade Unit, the group noted.
"Tulsi Gabbard has been and will continue to be a strong supporter of our nation's veterans and active armed forces," the announcement said.
Gabbard faces Republican Kawika Crowley in the Nov. 6 general election for the House seat that serves Neighbor Islands and rural Oahu.
