I am trying to set up my Dell 1525 laptops with Hardy. I tried Intrepid but could never get Skype or Google Earth to work. I loaded 8.04.2 desktop and everything seems OK. When I plug an external 1.5 terabyte drive in USB toaster, it is not seen.
What I have tried so far:
I tried both ext2 and NTFS formated disks in the toaster. Neither work.
I have a 250 gig ext2 USB disk. It works.
I have a 300 gig NTFS USB disk. It works
One 1525 is configured as a dual boot with Hardy and XP. All disks are recognized by XP.
One 1525 is setup from the disk downloaded from dell and updated. It exhibits the same characteristics as the dual boot from the Ubuntu 8.04.2 Desktop setup disk.
One 1525 still has Intrepid installed. It recognizes and auto-mounts all disks.
I have an eSATA card for the laptops. The toaster, using eSATA instead of USB, works with both ext2 and NTFS formated disks on Intrepid. But not on either Hardy installation.
If I use gparted on Hardy to look at the NTFS formated 1.5T disk, it shows /dev/sdb (1.36 TiB) as NTFS and a /!\ with information of "Unable to read the contents of this filesystem". If I look at the ext2 formated 1.5T, it shows the file system, Label, Size, Used, and Unused correctly. When I try to mount it (Places -> Computer -> USB Drive) it says can't mount file.
I am at a loss as to where to go from here. Thanks in advance for help.

I doubled my holdings at $2. lets hope it holds.
Bold move cheeks !!!I think some bad news or something that looks like bad news may be in the picture down the road. But I still say NTN has everything going for it now that it had six or seven months ago. I have a feeling the timetable for deployment may be being delayed through no fault of NTN but cable companies may be waiting until next year. That or the Dish subscriptions are low. It's all I can think of. Niether will stop NTN/Buzztime from obtaining a major gaming presence.
I have lost some decent cash on this stock and i refuse to lose more. I will keep doubling down until zero if i have to... but i am not talking a huge amount of shares. If there is bad news, I am thinking that it may be priced in. Sell on the rumor buy on the news?
Good luck.I think you could have done so at the $1.60 level soon.John

Paradoxically, with the recognized increase in hepatocellular carcinoma, liver biopsy is used less frequently for diagnosis unless there are "atypical" imaging characteristics.[1, 2] Thus, unless pathologists practice in a center with high liver surgery volume, experience with this tumor may diminish. However, whether for tissue acquisition for management decisions of the atypical lesions, the incidental lesion encountered in a "blind" percutaneous biopsy, or for final diagnostic reporting of resected or transplanted hepatectomies, familiarity with the histopathologic lesions of hepatocellular carcinoma remains important for practicing pathologists. As noted in recent reviews, clinical management choices and decisions, and prognosis of primary liver carcinoma are fields of rapid growth. Arguments are now being made that for optimum clinical outcomes, management also necessitates the most reliable classification of tumors, including histopathologic evaluation.[3-5] This review discusses current criteria, useful immunohistochemistry stains, and differential diagnostic considerations for hepatocellular carcinoma.

Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a malignant tumor of hepatocytes, may exhibit any or all of the cytologic and/or architectural characteristics of hepatocellular differentiation, along with features of malignancy. Identification of intercellular bile and/or canaliculi are diagnostic of the cellular origin of the tumor. Figures 1-6 show hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)–stained images of "routine" HCC.
Architectural Considerations
The trabecular and pseudoacinar patterns of HCC are the most easily recognized. The former recapitulates hepatic cords, but the width is ≥3 nuclei; in some cases, "floating trabeculae" may be appreciated in which there are apparent cross-sections of cords that are not attached or are floating freely. If considered three-dimensionally, this could represent a cross-section from a complex growth of tumor with multiple projections. In nontumorous liver, this appearance is seen only in large vein outflow obstruction with sinusoidal dilatation, but the cords are ≤2 nuclei wide. Pseudoacinar formations may resemble "cholestatic rosettes" when small; pseudoacini may also be dilated and large, infrequent to numerous, empty or filled with eosinophilic material. More challenging to recognize as HCC is the compact (solid) pattern in which nearly confluent sheets of tumor are present. A characteristic feature of so-called progressed HCC is the presence of unpaired arteries within the tumor nodule. Finally, intravascular or intraductal tumor and stromal invasion are uncommon but diagnostic of malignancy. Stromal invasion is best recognized on large tissue sections of encapsulated HCC in a background of cirrhosis; keratin 76 and keratin 197 show progressive loss of the perinodular ductular reaction from cirrhotic nodules to dysplastic nodules to HCC. In some cases, apparent overrun of residual portal tracts may also be appreciated in stromal invasion in HCC.
Cytologic Considerations
Malignant hepatocytes manifest almost all the features of benign hepatocytes; the exception is accumulation of iron granules. HCC in the setting of iron overload is iron-free. The cytoplasm may be deeply eosinophilic, basophilic, or clear. Cytoplasmic aggregates may include steatosis, fibrinogen (so-called pale bodies), glycogen (clear cells) or glycoprotein inclusions (+/− periodic acid Schiff with diastase-positive), and Mallory-Denk bodies; intranuclear inclusions include glycogen, cytoplasmic pseudo-inclusions, or large nucleoli. Nuclear contours are often irregular, and the nuclear/cytoplasmic ratio is increased. Giant, multinucleated cells may occur in HCC. An important concept in HCC is that once tumors are no longer well-differentiated, pleomorphism of cytologic phenotype may occur throughout the tumor.
Useful Stains
Table 1 lists commonly used stains for routine HCC. It is worth noting that no single stain is entirely sensitive or specific,[8] and the premier stain for diagnosis remains hematoxylin and eosin. Reticulin and immunohistochemistry stains can be used, with care, to confirm (or rarely, exclude) the diagnosis, as discussed below. Immunohistochemistry also plays a large role in the evaluation of phenotypic differentiation of liver carcinoma, as discussed below. Figures 7-10 show stains used commonly for HCC.
|Primary Usefulness in HCC
|Other Useful Findings
|Highlights loss of normal cord architecture; referred to as "loss of reticulin"
|Best used in comparison with nontumorous liver; easily misinterpreted and does not necessarily distinguish adenoma and HCC
|K8 and K18
|Keratins of hepatocytes; likely not positive in most adenocarcinomas
|May label cells in up to 50% of cases of HCC
|Very strong and diffuse labeling is highly suggestive of biphenotypic differentiation
|Has been found in scattered cells in up to 20% of cases of HCC
|Not useful in the K7/K20 algorithm for evaluating carcinomas
|Labels the endothelial cells of the sinusoids of HCC but not nontumorous liver
|Is a marker of "capillarization," loss of endothelial cell fenestration
|Caution: may be positive focally and/or diffusely in hepatocellular adenoma
|Labels canaliculi between benign and malignant hepatocytes; will not be as numerous as nontumorous liver
|Cholangiocarcinoma is positive in cytoplasm
|Nontumorous liver is strong positive control
|Canalicular marker; specific but not as sensitive as pCEA
|For clear cell carcinoma, CD10 can be useful to evaluate for cytoplasmic reactivity expected in renal cell carcinoma
|Nontumorous liver is strong positive control
|Labels mitochondrial enzyme (granular) in mature hepatocytes; thus, may be negative in HCC
|Very limited application in evaluation; may be positive in other cell types
|Useful when positive, not useful when negative; reported to be negative in hepatocellular adenoma
|Caution: can be "patchy"; has been reported in chronic hepatitis C and in DNs
|Useful when positive, not useful when negative; may be positive in adenoma
|Zone 3 hepatocytes are normally strongly positive for GS
|Characteristic "map-like" pattern in FNH
|Useful in combination with GPC-3 and GSa
|Caution: may be positive in DNs
|Positive in hepatocytes and/or sinusoids
|Caution: may also be positive in similar patterns in DNs and hepatocellular adenoma
Histologic Subtypes of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
It is increasingly recognized that morphologic subtypes of liver carcinoma exist beyond the obvious broad distinctions of hepatocellular and cholangiocarcinoma. Commonly accepted subtypes are fibrolamellar HCC (FLC), scirrhous HCC, sarcomatoid HCC, and the so-called inflammatory HCC or lympho-epithelial-like carcinoma (LEL).[9] The first, FLC, is characterized by large polygonal tumor cells with prominent nuclei and dark nucleoli along with bands of lamellar fibrosis coursing through it. Tumor cells may contain pale body inclusions. FLC and LEL both are found predominantly in noncirrhotic livers. Scirrhous HCC, on the other hand, may be noted in livers with foci of otherwise typical HCC; the scirrhous component may be subcapsular. Neither the cytology of the tumor cells nor the character of the fibrous component are to be confused with FLC; in addition, it has been noted that treated HCC may become scirrhous in some areas.[9] These tumors are considered separately from the sclerosing HCC that is associated with hypercalcemia.[9] Sarcomatoid HCC is diagnosed as such when the majority of tumor cells are spindled; this phenotype may also be a result of treatment. With enough sections, identifiable typical HCC is commonly found.[8, 9] LEL may or may not be related to Epstein-Barr viral infection as other lympho-epithelial carcinomas are.[9] Varying quantities of mononuclear cells are present within these tumors. Many of the tumors have cholangiolar differentiation. Immunogenic stimuli are not understood.
New Topics in Pathology of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Thanks to the careful work of our Japanese colleagues, there is now recognition of two types of HCC that are both <2 cm but have separate long-term outcomes.[10] The first, distinctly nodular, advanced,[10] or progressed HCC,[5] is the classical form of encapsulated HCC with unpaired arteries, usually moderately differentiated but with tumoral cytologic heterogeneity, and the long-term prognosis similar to its larger counterparts. CD34 is positive in sinusoids of the tumor. There is a small but documented risk of intrahepatic tumor metastases, and invasion into portal veins. The second form of small HCC is known as early HCC.[10, 11] The lesion is vaguely nodular, does not have a capsule, and even though unpaired arteries are present, portal tracts are as well. These tumors receive both arterial and portal blood supply, and CD34 is not uniformly present. Compared with surrounding parenchyma, portal tract numbers are fewer. Microscopically, the tumors are well-differentiated with thin trabeculae, with or without pseudoacini, and blend imperceptibly into adjacent nontumorous parenchyma. Steatosis is common in early HCC; the N/C ratio is increased, lending an overall crowded appearance to the involved area. This lesion may be a challenge to distinguish from dysplastic nodules, and there may be East-West discordance in individual cases.[10, 11] The definitive demonstration of carcinoma is stromal invasion into the intratumoral portal tracts, but sufficient tumor sampling may not be present in a biopsy sample. Early HCC, as defined, carries a prognosis of slower tumor progression.[9] A schematic of the progression of dysplastic nodules to early and progressed HCC was published and discussed recently.[12] Figure 11 is a reprint of the schematic.
With increased application of immunohistochemical panels and molecular studies, several investigators have shown the existence of liver carcinomas that "share" genetic and phenotypic expression of both hepatocellular and biliary differentiation, regardless of histologic findings. The tumors may be quite homogenous within themselves, or may be heterogenous with areas of clear-cut classical HCC or, less likely, intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. Many of the tumors seemingly have nearly blended histologic features in differing fields, while others show an abrupt transition between the two. In many cases, tumor nests, cords, and gland-like structures are present within sclerotic stroma. Terminology continues to be worked out by investigators in this field. The 2010 World Health Organization Classification of Tumors of the Digestive System[9] refers to the entire group as combined hepatocellular-cholangiocarcinoma with subgroups of classical type, and subtypes with stem cell features. Within the latter, there are three further subdivisions: typical, intermediate cell, and cholangiocellular types. Roncalli et al.[5] have proposed three types: (1) HCC with stem/progenitor cell immunophenotype; (2) mixed hepatobiliary carcinoma, classical type; and (3) mixed hepatobiliary carcinoma with stem/progenitor cell phenotype and immunophenotype. These tumors are under intensive investigation, as it is apparent they are neither uncommon nor restricted to cirrhotic (or noncirrhotic) livers.
Differential Diagnostic Considerations of HCC
The differential diagnostic considerations of nodules in the liver largely depend on the status of the background nontumorous liver. The possibilities for cirrhotic liver differ from those of noncirrhotic liver, as shown in Fig. 12. The potentially most challenging lesions for pathologists to distinguish from HCC in cirrhotic livers are high-grade dysplastic nodules (DN),[10, 12] and in noncirrhotic livers, hepatocellular adenomas.[13] Proposals for the first type have been made, including detailed analysis of various routine histologic features such as cord thickness, vascular and capsular invasion and nuclear features,[14] or utilization of immunomarkers with heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), glutamine synthetase (GS), and glypican-3 (GPC-3) in various combinations.[15] One group has suggested the use of annexin-2.[16] Di Tommaso et al.[17] showed that in all DNs in cirrhotic livers studied, positivity for all three (HSP70, GS, and GPC-3) was never seen, but the combination correctly identified 43.7% of HCCs; 72.7% of DN were negative for all three markers. The value of two or three positive markers in liver biopsies has also been published.[11, 17] Annexin-2 was most useful in its diffuse sinusoidal pattern (82% of HCCs versus 0 DNs) compared with the hepatocellular or zonal sinusoidal patterns.[16] References are provided for an in-depth review of adenoma and HCC.[13]

Recent reviews
Excellent 4.0 /5 from 214 reviews
We were disappointed. There was absolutely not enough parking for all the guests. The front desk was completely stressed because the rooms were not ready for anyone. After waiting, our two rooms were not even on the same floor. Our tv did not work when we arrived but was fixed after complaining. That was positive. Then we tried to leave for dinner but the machine outside for the parking ticket was broken. We needed to wait AGAIN in line at the reception to pay for the ticket to leave. There were still many guests trying to check in to rooms that were not ready (at 6pm). When I tried to ask a Manager if we could just pay for parking I was told to wait in that line. Very unorganized and unpleasant. Breakfast Looks amazing but tasted average to bad. The room/floor was dirty in the breakfast room. Checking out was difficult as well, of course. The Person at the front desk had such a hard time to check out 2 rooms AND to help us pay the parking ticket upon departure. No thank you. Never again. Waste of time. There are plenty of other nice Hotels in the area. This Hotel is NOT up to Marriot Standards.

While it is critical for patients to closely monitor AF and blood pressure to manage the risk of stroke, until now, no single platform has integrated the two risk factors. AliveCor and Omron are enabling patients to take control of their heart health with clinically validated technology and to work with their physicians to determine an appropriate care plan that will help lower the risk of stroke.
"Giving patients the ability to monitor two vital heart health statistics for stroke in one place has the opportunity to be life-changing," said Dr. David Albert, Founder and Chief Medical Officer at AliveCor. "With this combined data, patients can change their most important modifiable risk factor, blood pressure, and seek the right care that could improve heart health and prevent a stroke. Today we are one step closer to achieving our mission of making the ECG a vital statistic for not just cardiologists, but patients, physicians and caregivers."
Fyusion, a leading developer of new computer vision and machine learning technologies, today announced the world's first platform that allows mobile phones to create augmented reality content.
Fyusion's platform allows mobile users to record their surroundings, and convert these into interactive 3D holographic images. Rather than requiring expensive or additional hardware, people can capture a light field-based image using a regular smartphone, which can then be viewed using an augmented reality headset within seconds.

iPhone users are constantly badgered by the infamous "Storage Almost Full" messages on their phones. The constant hunger for storage on cellular devices is especially prevalent on iPhones. Unlike their Android counterparts, the iPhone characteristically has no features to upgrade its internal memory. Up until recently the only solution to iPhone storage limitations seemed to be an expensive upgrade.
Michel Hassan, Gigastone, President expounded, "No matter how much storage you have on your iPhone or iPad, it is never enough. Who has the time to backup and restore data using iTunes and a computer? Granted we all have allot of junk on our phones. The question is how to free-up that data and in turn have that data on-hand and easily accessible. The new Gigastone IF-6600 is, to date, the most eloquent answer to this perpetual problem."

Anonymous review posted on
I needed an attorney that specialized in both criminal law and DUI/DWI cases as a result of an error on ASAP's part and an obstruction of justice charge. Not only did Eric get the motion against ASAP approved so that I could reinstate my license, he also fought the prosecutor in trial on my obstruction charge and got my case dismissed. He's not afraid to fight for justice for his clients, which is what you'd want in a defense attorney. Lastly, Eric is very well versed in law, he's organized and he kept me up-to-date throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend him!
Posted by Renee
Mr. Demetriades is a rare find. He is an excellent lawyer, quick, smart, passionate and on top of all that, an amazing human being.
He handled our case perfectly, always responding on time, working after hours and being an excellent supporter.
I say he is a rare find, because for him, justice is more important than anything else. His passion for his work goes beyond a 9-5 job and fees.
I am so grateful we had him on our side. He has a strong network of colleagues that respect him and I'm sure, many clients like us that admire him and are grateful for his work.
If you want your peace of mind restored, Eric is the right man for the job.

Eric's reputation precedes him. He is very sharp, knows the law in and out, and just as importantly, knows the who and where in the locale where he practices. He is very honest about the possible results, but will work with you to get the best possible outcome for your situation.
I received a reckless driving ticket, and needless to say was very concerned about the ramifications. I looked up Eric here, and noticed all the 5 star reviews. I'm glad I went with him, and would not hesitate to hire him again if need be. He communicated clearly, and responded fast. When I showed up for the court date, he had already handled everything.
Truly an exceptional expreince
When I was six years old, I told my parents that I wanted to be a lawyer. They probably thought "how cute" and being encouraging as parents are, they just smiled and nodded. Although at that age I could not appreciate what it truly meant to be a lawyer, I never wavered. My goal and purpose always seemed crystal clear. I wanted to and would be a lawyer.
I remember negotiating with my parents everything from chores to dessert. Eating vegetables that I believed to be disgusting (brussels sprouts for instance), could be negotiated depending on what sort of dessert compensation I received. When I was in elementary school, I would negotiate with my friends just who in our group would be the "leader" for the day. I wasn't trying to make myself the leader; I wanted to ensure everyone had their turn, because it was fair and right. I liked being able to make sure that the each kid had their turn and were not taken advantage of by the other kids.
Arguing became a passion of mine, and negotiating became a fixture in my life. In high school, I qualified for and competed in the Forensic Nationals in both my junior and senior year. In college, I was the Chief Justice of the Interfraternity Council. As Chief Justice, I was responsible for overseeing the hearings and ultimately deciding the fate of fraternities on campus. This position strengthened my dedication to justice. While at the University of Richmond School of Law, I was active on nearly every competition board, and spent my entire third year at law school as an intern with the Commonwealth Attorney's Office. At the Commonwealth Attorney's Office, I gained valuable experience and knowledge on how the criminal justice system works. Most importantly, I learned how important it was for a defendant to have the right attorney. This reinforced my belief that everyone going through the criminal justice system deserves to have the best representation.
These experiences have helped to develop my style as an attorney. I maintain the same desire to protect the rights of others and to make sure that they are not taken advantage of by the system. I am committed to each and everyone of my clients. If you choose to have me as your lawyer, I will stand next to you as your advocate and give you everything I have, because I love what I do and am fortunate to be doing exactly what I have wanted to do since I was six. My mission is to help those who need me and to do my best to ensure justice. At Biberaj & Snow every client matters, from a traffic ticket to a serious felony, and you will absolutely get the same passion and commitment regardless of your situation.

SN voices: Owens ousted from indoor team
May 30, 2012
Terrell Owens was released by the Allen Wranglers for refusing to play in two upcoming games and for not showing up to a scheduled appearance at a local children's hospital. Was this Owens' last shot a playing professional football?
- Lefty81364: "What were you expecting to get Wranglers? A model citizen? This is just Terrell Owens being Terrell Owens. No surprise here"
- kbengineer07: "What a sad way to finally end his career. Just shows that attitude will prevail over talent any day."
- ZC_Edwards: "It sucks to see a talent like Terrell be so consumed by his ego. The guy could play"
- steel7231: "It is hilarious that TO got played by the Wranglers owner. This is by far the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to him."
- aviboy97: "Being a no-show to a children's hospital is pretty low, TO. I respect the Wrangler organization for sticking to moral principles."
- Samsemilia1: "Niners should sign him. Crabtree is a scrub. He and Moss deserve a championship before calling it quits"

Around this time last year, the Iowa DOT reported that the I-29 project was a year behind schedule for completion.
"A few years ago, we had some issues with our staging and we weren't able to meet our original schedule," says Dakin Schultz, Transportation Planner with the Iowa DOT.
The continued work on I-29 is a well-known multi-year heavy construction project and it's affected all areas of Siouxland. As most people have noticed, freeway exits often lead you through a minor detour around the areas that are being worked on.
"A major construction project like this, especially something this complicated with the staging is going to take a lot of years. We're still targeting as far as the main I-29 work, the main line work, being completed probably at the end of 2019, with some carryover work into 2020," says Schultz.
The project is divided into three segments and by the end of the projects' completion, the total cost will estimate around $400 million.
"We continue to ask the patience of the motorists as they can see in segments one and three of the completion, once it's completed, there's definitely a benefit to the area," says Schultz.
Despite all the speed zones, traffic cones and other road fixtures, Schultz says the benefits will be well worth it.
"The benefits to the public will be a facility that's going to last them for decades but it will also be a safe modern facility that'll serve this traffic well," says Schultz.
By the end of the year, it's expected that Floyd Boulevard will be back open again and the construction zones around Hamilton will have traffic shift.

The inequitable distribution of income is present at the global level where the nominal gross domestic product (GDP) of the top 10 economies adds up to over 66% of the world's economy, and the top 15 economies add up to over 75%. The remaining 172 countries constitute only 25% of the world's economy.
Here's the list of the top 10 economies based on the criteria of GDP, current prices (U.S. dollars) which is simply known as nominal GDP. The rankings differ if the same list is prepared using the GDP based on purchasing-power-parity (PPP). As a general rule, developed countries have a smaller gap between their nominal GDP (i.e., current prices) and GDP based on PPP. The difference is greater in developing countries, which tend to have a higher GDP when valued on purchasing-power-parity basis. This list is based on IMF data, which is updated twice annually.
1. United States
The U.S. economy is the largest in the world in terms of nominal GDP (measured at current prices in U.S. dollars). The $17.95 trillion U.S. economy is approximately 24.5% of the gross world product. The United States is an economic superpower that is highly advanced in terms of technology and infrastructure and has abundant natural resources. However, the U.S. economy loses its spot as the number one economy by a slight margin to China when measured in terms of GDP based on PPP. In these terms, China's GDP is $19.4 trillion and the U.S. GDP is $17.95 trillion. However, the U.S. is way ahead of China in terms of GDP per capita (PPP) - approximately $55,805 in the U.S. versus $14,107 in China.
2. China
China has transformed itself from a centrally planned closed economy in the 1970's to a manufacturing and exporting hub over the years. The Chinese economy is propelled by an equal contribution from manufacturing and services (45% each, approximately) with a 10% contribution by the agricultural sector. The Chinese economy overtook the U.S. economy in terms of GDP based on PPP. However, the difference between the economies in terms of nominal GDP remains large. China is currently a $10.98 trillion economy and has been growing at around 7% in the recent years, although that growth is starting to slow down.
3. Japan
Japan's economy ranks third in terms of nominal GDP, while it slips to fourth spot when comparing the GDP by purchasing-power-parity. The economy has been facing hard times since 2008, when it was first showed recessionary symptoms. Though the government's stimulus packages have helped the economy recover a bit, the massive earthquake in 2011 gave the fragile economy another jolt. Economic growth has hovered between 0.5–2% in recent times, but is forecasted to stay below 1% during the next six years. The nominal GDP of Japan is $4.12 trillion, its GDP (PPP) is $4.83 trillion, and its GDP (PPP) per capita is $38,054.
4. Germany
Germany is Europe's largest and strongest economy. On the world scale, it ranks as the fourth largest economy in terms of nominal GDP. Germany's economy is known for its exports of machinery, vehicles, household equipment, and chemicals. Germany has a skilled labor force, but the economy faces demographic challenges like most European nations. The size of its nominal GDP is $3.36 trillion, while its GDP in terms of purchasing-power-parity is $3.84 trillion. Germany's GDP (PPP) per capita is $46,893, and the economy has moved at a moderate pace of 1-2% in recent years and is forecasted to stay that way.
5. United Kingdom
The United Kingdom, with a $2.85 trillion GDP, is the world's fifth largest. The economy of the UK is primarily driven by services, as the sector contributes more than 75% of the GDP. With agriculture contributing a minimal 1%, manufacturing is the second most important contributor to GDP. Although agriculture is not a major contributor to GDP, 60% of its food needs is produced domestically, even though less than 2% of its labor force is employed in the sector. After the referendum in June 2016 when voters decided to leave the European Union, economic prospects for the UK are highly uncertain, and the UK and France may swap places. The country will operate under EU regulations and trade agreements for two years after the formal announcement of an exit to the European Council, in which time officials will work on a new trade agreement. Economists have estimated that a Brexit could result in a loss of anywhere from 2.2-9.5% of GDP, depending on the trade agreements replacing the current single market structure.
6. France
France, the most visited country in the world, is the sixth largest economy with a nominal GDP of $2.42 trillion. Its GDP in terms of PPP is around $2.65 trillion. France has a low poverty rate and high standard of living, which is reflected in its GDP (PPP) per capita of $41,180. The country is among the top exporters and importers in the world. France has experienced a slowdown over the past few years and the government is under immense pressure to rekindle the economy, as well as combat high unemployment which reached 10.35% in 2015. According to IMF forecasts the country's GDP growth rate is expected to rise over the next six years, and unemployment is expected to go down.
7. India
India ranks third in GDP in terms of purchasing-power-parity ($7.97 trillion), while its nominal GDP ($2.09 trillion) puts it in a seventh place. The country's high population drags its GDP (PPP) per capita down to $6,162. India's GDP is still dependent on agriculture (17%), compared to western countries. However, the services sector has picked up in recent years and now accounts for 57% of the GDP, while industry contributes 26%. The economy's strength lies in a limited dependence on exports, high saving rates, favorable demographics, and a rising middle class. India recently overtook China as the fastest growing large economy.
8. Italy
Italy's $1.16 trillion economy is the world's eighth largest in terms of nominal GDP. Italy is among the prominent economies of the eurozone, but it has been impacted by the debt crisis in the region. The economy suffers from a huge public debt estimated to be about 135.8% of GDP, and its banking system is close to a collapse and in need of a bail-out/bail-in. The economy is also facing high unemployment, but saw a positive economic growth in 2015 for the first time since 2011. The government is working on various measures to boost the economy that has contracted in recent years. The GDP measured in purchasing-power-parity for the economy is estimated at $2.17 trillion, while its per capita GDP (PPP) is $35,708.
9. Brazil
Brazil with its $1.77 trillion economy, it is the ninth largest economy by nominal GDP. The Brazilian economy has developed services, manufacturing, and agricultural sectors with each sector contributing around 68%, 26%, and 6% respectively. Brazil is one of the BRIC countries, and was projected to continue to be one of the fastest growing economies in the world. However, the recession in 2015 caused Brazil to go from seventh to ninth place in the world economies ranking, with a negative growth rate of 3.8%. The IMF does not expect positive growth until 2018, and the unemployment rate is expected to grow over 3% – to 10.4% – over the same time period. The Brazilian GDP measured in purchasing-power-parity is $3.19 trillion, while its GDP per capita (PPP) is $15,614.
10. Canada
Canada pushed Russia off the list with a nominal GDP of $1.55 trillion. Canada has a highly service oriented economy, and has had solid growth in manufacturing as well as in the oil and petroleum sector since the Second World War. However, the country is very exposed to commodity prices, and the drop in oil prices kept the economy from growing more than 1.2% in 2015 (down from 2.5% the previous year). The GDP measured in purchasing-power parity is $1.6 trillion, and the GDP per capita (PPP) is $45,553.
The Bottom Line
Some other economies that are a part of the "trillion-dollar" club and have the potential to make it to the top 10 going ahead are South Korea ($1.38 trillion), Russia ($1.32 trillion), Australia ($1.22 trillion), Spain ($1.2 trillion), and Mexico ($1.14 trillion). The bottom four countries have been rearranged and Canada pushed out Russia which went from ninth to twelfth place (read more about Russia's economy here.)

Cloud Expo Silicon Valley $500 Savings here!
Cloud providers are increasingly looking at application marketplaces as the best way of enabling customers to onboard software to their cloud. However, providers often lack the deep pockets or extensive manpower required to populate the marketplace; they must engage and empower an ISV ecosystem to populate it on their behalf. As such, providers must offer ISVs an easy way to publish and maintain their software in the store, as well as make money from it.
In his session at the 11th International Cloud Expo, James Weir, CTO and co-founder of UShareSoft, will outline why an application marketplace can drive cloud services revenue for providers, their ISV and channel partners; and how providers can quickly implement a marketplace with today's turnkey solutions.

Value-add and upside, as well as stability, are what real estate investors seek and Featherstone Plaza delivers. One value-add is the ability to increase rent to market rate as the economy improves, as currently both retail and industrial rents are below-market. Another plus is that the center is large enough, with over 47,000 sf and almost twenty tenants, to withstand the loss of an occasional tenant, which in the past has been quickly re-tenanted. The fact that it is 100% leased in this economy, as it has been for many years, is a testament to the long-term stability of this investment. The average tenancy is over 9 years, not including 7-11, which has been a tenant since 1964.
Woodbridge is home to one of the country' s highest concentrations of retail properties, including Potomac Mills. Featherstone Plaza is within a short distance of a new Wegmans-anchored mixed-use project at Potomac Town Center, the largest supermarket in the country. Woodbridge is located in Prince William County, VA, approximately 20 miles southwest of Washington, DC. The current estimated population of Prince William County is 386,047 persons (as of December 15, 2007). The County population has grown by 105,234 persons (37.5%) since 2000. The average annual growth rate since 2000 has been 5.3%. VDOT reports the AADT for this section of Route 1 is 38,000.

ANAHEIM -- Dan Straily did his job, so to speak.
He limited the high-priced, high-powered Angels offense to a mere two runs. But it was not enough. Not in a 2-0 loss or the A's.
"It was a matter of needing to put up to more 'zeroes' than I did," Straily said. "It's my job to keep us in the game."
That he did. Straily nicked Mike Trout's jersey in the first inning, and he came around to score on a Josh Hamilton sacrifice fly out to left fielder Chris Young. Then, in the seventh, he hung a change-up to Alberto Callaspo that he hit for a solo home run.
Ballgame…with the A's meager bats.
"Yeah, he pitched well," A's manager Bob Melvin said of Straily. "Really, the only pitch he probably takes back is the change-up to Callaspo. He's on a nice little run for us. He's giving us a chance to win every time he goes out there."
Melvin said the only way Yoenis Cespedes (left wrist) was getting in the game was as a pinch-runner, potentially for pinch-hitter Seth Smith in in the ninth inning. So will Cespedes be available Sunday?
"My guess is probably not," Melvin said. "But we'll see how he is when he gets here."
Since May 10, the A's are just 10-14 against the American League West, 28-9 against everyone else…by dropping the first two games of the series against the Angels, the A's record in series this season fell to 18-11-3…it was the third time the A's had a season-low three hits.

Phil Novis of the resource management group at Abbey National called on IT staff to consider acquiring storage skills. "People don't see storage as a fashionable area, but it is central to the lives of all our companies," he said.
Robert Haynes, systems engineer at Energis, said his company had overcome the storage skills gap by training its existing staff. But he acknowledged the difficulties of keeping pace with rapidly changing storage technologies. "Storage keeps changing dramatically: from direct [attached] storage we now have storage area networks and virtualisation," Haynes said.
In a keynote speech storage guru Fred Moore, president of US consultancy Horison Information Strategies, highlighted the problems caused by the lack of skilled storage workers. "This challenge exacerbates the problem of managing what [storage] you have," he said.

I just plan to use my brain for more creative, positive ventures in the future after I pay back my debt to society.

I can't stop shitting. Thanks, Ana Forrest.
I spent the day with Ana yesterday at a Yoga Journal conference day-long intensive that promised to open my heart. Ana said shit was stuck inside us, and doing cobra on the towel we could move it out, and I feel like that's all I've been doing for the past year.
It makes sense that we would have to get rid of our shit before our hearts could open. Ana promised everyone that after a series of cobras and bows while laying our bellies on top of rolled-up towels that none of us would suffer from high-altitude constipation that often affects visitors to this Rocky Mountain camp. And it works. Holy crap.
I've been eliminating the shit from my life for so long, it seems. Being at this conference makes me realize, again, that I still have a lot in there (physically, mentally, spiritually). Depending on the day, I tell people that I'm on sabbatical and figuring out what's next or that I'm an unemployable print journalist without a future.
Truth is, I'm training to become a yoga teacher and letting go of all the stress-induced bad habits that my former life as an editor-in-chief encouraged. I'm doing things that I would never in a million years have done when I considered myself a Green Diva. Like cleaning the new yoga studio in my neighborhood in exchange for membership and blogging in exchange for access to this conference. When I can get over who and what I once was (the shit), I'm enjoying all this immensely.
I paid my own money to spend yesterday with Ana, before the elephant invite came. It was worth it. Ana swore and played with beautiful poses and kept me amused and connected for an entire day. My system is reeling, and nothing's ever gotten inside my gut like your towel roll tricks. Now I'm just waiting for my head to empty and my heart to fill.
It's just a lot faster process in my body than it is in the long stagnant bowels of my mind.
