11eyes, in the beginning, showed potential to be a "10" or "9" grade anime. Some shows went on and grew the beard. This one, on the other hand, devolved into something else. However, this wasn't exactly a devolution into the worst of the worst.
Story - 4/10
The anime showed pretty strong potential to be a very good supernatural themed story. The concept was used before. This did not discourage me from watching it though. One can use mediocre concepts and turn it into gold. I first saw this aspect as gold. This view, however, devolved and the story slowly but surely turned into something else: A screwy and awkward one. An interesting story suddenly became VERY awkward and weird. Suddenly, it's like the other characters lost their competence and some even derailed into "dreadful and annoying" (I'm looking at you, Yuka.) And the rest just got... blah. I'll give it a 4 for managing to be really interesting early on.
Art - 7/10
11eyes definitely has great art. Arts from other more complicated series cannot be compared to this one since its main focus was the "moe" aspect. Characters that have cute traits like big eyes and the like are found in it. Some battle scenes did look a bit awkward though. At one time, I was expecting an epic fight between two master swordsmen. It shifts to one scene. And then cue to a scene where one of them says "She's too strong." and don't fight anyway. It's like they ran out of budget to make a big fight scene. That was fail. This gets 7 for being really good at what the art's supposed to be.
Sound - 9/10
The opening "Arrival of Tears" by Ayane and "Sequentia" by Asriel are suberb themes and are actually VERY addicting. The BGM of the show, too, was great. Epic music was around. This gets a 9.
Character - 6/10
The characters are stereotypical, that's for sure. The characters were made to cater to your fetishes. This was ok, I understand. It was the point. And then IT happened. One of the main girls degraded into a sick little girl with her own sick little fantasies. And as I said earlier, suddenly most of the cast became incompetent in combat and the main guy just became central view of the show. What the heck happened? This gets a 6 for me.
Overall - 6/10
11eyes, though deserving lots of the flak from our fellow watchers, is a pretty ok anime. It barely crosses "5" territory, which for me is a low score already. Overall, 11eyes cannot be considered a great or a superb anime. But undeniably the show is decent enough to stand. But if one looks for story and development in an anime, 11eyes is not for you.
This is my first review so please if there is any improvements that I need to do here then please share with me and I will try and improve in the future.

All good things must come to an end. Newton's outstanding playoff run ended on Friday after a devastating 43-29 loss to Etowah.
Before the season, Rams' head coach Terrance Banks talked a big game about his team. It had some wondering if he was just being arrogant or if there was actual truth to his words. The Rams just lost their last game of the season, going 2-1 in the playoffs, but it seems Banks was right about a lot.
This week is a special edition of our athletes of the week page. With Eastside and Alcovy basketball having away games, we decided that Newton's seniors would be the athletes of the week. All of Newton's seniors have made some type of impact on this season, but we can only highlight a few of them. Honorable mentions: Nuka Yobo and Steven Montac.
With five minutes and 31 seconds left Newton awaited a kickoff with the game tied at 29. It was everything the Rams wanted, until it wasn't.
All year long Newton football made its money on offense where Rams' head coach Terrance Banks had nine returning starters from last year's team. As the Black Knights know, the Rams live and die (mostly living) on the arms and legs of Romario Johnson. However, it's been the Rams' defense that has propelled the team to new heights in this year's playoffs.
They say pressure either makes pipes burst or it makes diamonds. Plenty of pressure was on Newton to follow up the win against Valdosta and solidify the Rams as a program to be reckoned with. The only pressure that showed against Central Gwinnett was the pressure from the Rams' defense.
Newton versus Heritage was all it was hyped up to be, at least in terms of the jawing between the two sides in the crowd. To begin the boys matchup, Newton fans brought out their newspapers (Covington News papers of course) when the boys varsity players were announced. It was a smart play, and it worked. Although, the fan contest is over, you can still sends us your fan photos for a chance to get the #FanPhotoOfTheWeek in our weekly Sunday edition.
Before last week, Newton never won a state playoff game. Now, they've won two. The Rams scored 15 unanswered points to beat Central Gwinnett 15-14 and advance to the third round where they will hit the road to face Etowah next Friday.
All the talk has died down now. Newton football was named Fox 5's team of the week on Thursday and has drawn plenty of media attention the past week for its victory over Valdosta. None of that matters tonight when the Rams take on Central Gwinnett at 7:30 at Sharp Stadium.
After their stunning playoff victory over Valdosta, the Rams have garnered plenty of attention. On Thursday morning, Newton held a pep rally, as Fox 5 came to award the football team with their trophy as the team of the week. Rams' head coach Terrance Banks accepted the trophy after the pep rally.
If cheering was the contest that counted then Heritage was easily the victor, but it didn't. Neither did the many entertaining dance-offs between the fans of the two schools, but what did count was the Ws for both the girls' and boys' varsity basketball teams.
On Tuesday, the Newton Lady Rams held a practice at Philips Arena. The players got to practice on the Atlanta Hawks' homecourt and also attended the Hawks/Lakers game that night. The team was able to be on the court at halftime and rebound for the players.
Play 12. That's been the goal all year for the Newton Rams. You see, playing 12 games in high school football means that you've won a first round state playoff game, something Newton hasn't done, ever. The Rams won two region playoff games in 1987, but region playoffs were eliminated in 1994 and Newton has never won a state playoff game. Until now.
Win or go home. That's what the playoffs are all about. That's what the Eastside Eagles and Newton Rams are facing next Friday, as both teams scratched and crawled their way into the Georgia State Playoffs. The first round kicks off November 14th for both teams.
The game of the season between two rivals ended in classic fashion. Newton took the game and the county championship crown in a thrilling 29-26 victory. Rockdale played great, the Bulldogs led for most of the game, but it was Newton's final drive that drove the nail in the coffin. Here's some takeaways from the game.

The way consumer credit scores are calculated has changed. The Fair Isaac Corp. – creator of the FICO score – announced on January 29 that their new scoring model for determining credit scores, dubbed FICO 08, has been instituted and Better Business Bureau offers advice to consumers on how their credit score might change and what they can do to maintain a healthy credit rating.
FICO scores – which range from 300 to 850, with higher scores being better – are based on consumers' credit histories and reveal their risk for defaulting on loans. A good credit score is anything higher than 700. Average FICO scores for U.S. consumers are around 690. More than 90 percent of the 100 largest banks rely on FICO scores in determining both who they will lend to, and at what rate.
"The new formula is more forgiving of minor slip-ups and should more accurately predict a borrower's risk of defaulting on loans. The good news for consumers is that the Fair Isaac Corp. predicts that more people will see their score increase than decrease," said Margaret Perez, BBB El Paso CEO. "FICO 08 is a welcome sight in this tough economy as Fair Isaac also predicts its new system will help lenders reduce default rates on their consumer credit by between 5 percent and 15 percent."
In calculating scores, FICO 08 will continue to take into consideration factors such as a person's financial history including indebtedness, length of credit history, and number of open lines of credit. The difference with FICO 08 is the weight these factors will carry. The Fair Isaac Corp. explains that two people with the same score today could have completely divergent scores under FICO 08.
Little Slip-Ups Hurt Less. Debts less than $100 will not have as large a negative impact on a consumer's score.
Looking at the Big Picture. FICO 08 will take a more comprehensive look at a consumer's credit history. This way, one negative aspect of a person's credit history will not necessarily destroy their credit rating.
Restrictions on Piggybacking. Piggybacking is when a credit card holder with good credit let's another person, perhaps with lousy or no credit, be an authorized user of the card. The good credit of the card holder would then have a positive impact on the other user's credit. In order to reduce fraud associated with piggybacking, FICO 08 restricts piggybacking to only the card holder's family
Less Available Credit and Closing Accounts will Hurt More.
Before FICO 08, if a consumer had a history of using most of his or her available credit, it had a negative impact on their score; now that impact will be even larger. Also, having too few open accounts, a number of inactive accounts or closing accounts will have a more significant negative impact.
Varied Lines of Credit will Help
Having varied lines of credit—such as a mortgage, a car loan, or school loans in addition to credit cards—will have a positive affect on a credit score.
BBB encourages consumers to request a free credit report once every 12 months, and people can do so at: www.annualcreditreport.com. Consumers can get a free report from each of the nationwide consumer credit reporting companies: Equifax, Experian and TransUnion. Obtaining an actual credit score may cost consumers a few dollars, but for those who are concerned about their credit score, the cost is minimal compared to the cost of not getting a loan, paying higher interest rates or not being considered for a new job.
For more information on being a responsible borrower, and for reliable advice on how to increase FICO scores, visit www.bbb.org.

Tokina AT-X 16-28mm F2.8 Pro FX Review
Latest Camera Reviews
Your Comments

Good to see tokina is back with FX lenses. I've always enjoyed those Tokina lenses and was pretty bummed when they quit manufacturing FX lenses.
I hope this means more will follow. The 16-28 is high on my list, even more so after this review.
While I appreciate "real world" test shots, a bookshelf isn't exactly what most people would shoot and it is difficult to judge lens quality by. It has hardly any fine details and the books are not at equal distance to the plane of focus. Why not choose a fixed scene in a park or landscape from a high vantage point with lots of fine detail around in every corner (ideally at equal or far distances)?
????? ?????? ???????? ?????? ?????? ????????? ?????? ??????? ????????????? ?? ? ???? ?????????????.. ??? ????????
I think this would be a really awesome lens if they put something for a filter!
Debating on this one vs Canon EF 16-24 f2.8L. But this one is cheaper by so much but I don't want to be regret after I get this one….
Anyone can have a direct comparsion….
There are much more comprehensive review on this lens. My go tos are DxOmark.com, Ken Rockwell, slrgear.com for unparalleled comparisons. I did just order from BHPhoto for $499. I'm looking forward to using it for expanding landscapes and architectural along with DxO Optics Pro. IMHO the pics posted on this review are worth acknowledging. Of course, beauty is in the eye. Might want to get your's checked for a new prescription and upon receiving them take a trip out of that BBBritsh slum; maybe for a sunset.

Very pleased with Dr. Qadir. I have been seeing him for several years. He always greets me with a friendly "hello" before each exam and asks how things are going for me. He has accurately diagnosed my husband, my daughter, my mother and myself. Great doctor and very caring! Staff is always nice and will work with you with scheduling. Never have to wait. Thank you for all that you do! Great job!

With Sprint (S) showing signs of improvement, analysts think the company could expand its customer base by acquiring a smaller rival such as T-Mobile (DTEGY.PK), MetroPCS (PCS) or Leap Wireless (LEAP) to create a strong no. 3 carrier to challenge AT&T (T) and Verizon Wireless (VZ). The stock's 136% YTD gain bolsters its currency for a deal.

While many people focus on the size, don't forget the challenges with dissimilar networks and spectrum. Sprint is betting on PCS LTE while T-Mobile is going ahead with AWS LTE. Leap really doesn't have a clear LTE strategy otherwise they'd be pulling the trigger. Their only LTE market is is AWS-based. Then there is the demographic synergies or conflicts. Not an easy one to integrate well. Cautionary tale-Nextel.
Well, $5.50 a share is NOT good enough to go out and buy another POS company. Once the stock hits $10 to $15...then that's a good time to do an M&A project.

Sally Struthers brings experience, humor to 'Hello, Dolly!'

Skaggs, Hornsby pair piano with frenetic fiddlin' around
From the carefully placed microphones to the stringed instruments in the hands of Ricky Skaggs and the six members of Kentucky Thunder, the stage of the Northern Lights Theater at Potawatomi Bingo Casino was clearly set Friday for an evening of bluegrass music.
Had that been the bill, it would have been a fine show of prodigious talent playing the music Skaggs has been mastering since his youth. But there in the middle of the stage was an unusual addition to bluegrass tradition: a grand piano and its own experimental master, Bruce Hornsby. »Read Full Article

We seldom go a day without makeup, which means it's important to take extra good care of our skin. The beauty experts from Benefit devised this pore-purging facial polish to clear away all traces of product residue and breathe new life into dull skin. Use it to leave skin feeling refreshed and clarified, never dry. It's formulated for all skin types, making it a no-brainer addition to your cleansing regimen.
It seems nice..
Okay, we are supposed to say if this is hydrating, reduces discoloration, has oil control, is anti-aging, smooths skin, and is brightening. How would I know with a single use sample? Pretty worthless.
This seemed like a nice facial cleanser from my one time use but I would never buy it based on one time use. I would need a real deluxe sample. This didn't qualify.
i usually use st. ives apricot scrub because it's what has exfoliated my skin the best while preventing breakouts(very sensitive skin so i break out and dry out easily). liked this product but it's hard to tell if there is any difference after one use. also wouldn't be able to spend this much money on face wash!!3
This is a nice product & smells great. However, I don't think its much different from other products like it. I use my Clarisonic faithfully every day & that works better than this scrub. I would not purchase this product because I can't use cleansers with the exfoliating beads with my Clarisonic & I like the cleanser I'm currently using better.3
This is DEFINITELY an exfoliator! It is coarser than I usually like facial exfoliating products to be, but it made a dramatic difference in my skin in just once use. It also has a nice, clean (but not soapy) scent to it that I really enjoy. (I just wish I enjoyed rubbing it into my skin!)3
I loved the smell of the product! I typically use a different microderm abrasion kit from another company to exfoliate my skin. I don't have sensitive skin at all and can tolerate a strong exfoliator. This scrubbed OK, and left my skin soft and not dried out at all. Not having sensitive skin, I feel like I could use this product daily without a problem instead of the twice a week recommended. Compared to my usual exfoliator product, however, it doesn't seem to exfoliate quite as deeply. But, if you need a gentle exfoliation, it does work quite well, leaving skin very soft. And smells fantastic!3

Catharsis! The Texas Tech Red Raiders finally expelled the agony that came with a winless conference record. And not only did the Red Raiders eject their gathering misery, they did so in grand, convincing style.
Plain and simple, the team that pummeled Oklahoma by 18 points bore little resemblance to the bumbling, blundering squad that not only lost all its prior Big 12 games, but lost them badly. The Red Raiders we saw Saturday night actually looked like a real college basketball team. They were fundamentally sound, they were balanced and they were well rounded.
Just look at the stats.
Tech turned the ball over only seven times, while forcing the Sooners into 16 turnovers. Tech held its own on the glass against the larger opponent. Tech managed to score 65 points, which is good offensive productivity for this team. Tech outshot the Sooners 43 percent to 33 percent. The Red Raiders hit 10 of 12 free throws and had an assist-to-turnover ratio of almost two to one. They got scoring from inside and outside, and they played better as the game went along.
Really, this was a total team effort and there was little not to like about it. The challenge now is to prove the team really has turned the corner, rather than that it can play over its head one time.
Addition by Subtraction: The biggest obvious difference between Tech's win over Oklahoma and its previous losses was the shortened rotation. For most of the season Billy Gillispie played 10 players significant minutes. Against the Sooners he went with essentially a six-man rotation.
Noticeably absent from the rotation were DeShon Minnis, Jaron Nash and Terran Petteway. It may sound harsh, but this amounted to addition by subtraction. This rotation was efficient because it was not wasteful.
To wit, most of Minnis, Nash and Petteway's minutes have been wasted minutes. For the most part, those players were simply not contributing to, but rather were harming the team's efforts. By giving those minutes to more productive players, Gillispie improved his team dramatically.
Minniscule: DeShon Minnis has played a grand total of five minutes over the course of the last three games. This statistic may be a verdict.
Resiliency: Tech's oh so predictable modus operandi through conference play has been to immediately fall behind by five to seven points, keep the game within reach for most of the first half, and then collapse within the last five minutes of the half and trail by about 15 at halftime. Effectively, the Red Raiders were toast before the second half even began.
Tech began the OU contest in traditional fashion, quickly falling behind by five points and failing to score in the first four minutes. Then the Red Raiders got it going a little bit and played the Sooners even for the next several points. But here, in the danger zone where Tech typically foundered, the Red Raiders instead came to life and knocked Oklahoma around. Not only did Tech erase a deficit, but actually took a five-point lead into halftime. Tech hadn't led a conference game at halftime all season.
Winning the first half allowed the Red Raiders to win the game.
Tyriffic: Tech point guard Ty Nurse connected on only two of 12 shots from the field, and usually, when Nurse doesn't have his shot, he doesn't have his game. Fortunately for the Red Raiders that decidedly was not the case against the Sooners.
Nurse played an absolutely terrific floor game, dishing out seven big assists, getting two steals and committing not a single turnover. He was also icewater when OU applied full court pressure in a desperate attempt to get back in the game.
There was a little big of Jason Martin in Ty Nurse last night. And Javarez Willis, who also had a superb outing, looked a little like Wendell Owens.
Psyching the Sooners: Tech won this game mentally as well as physically. As the Red Raiders inexorably built their lead through the middle of the second half, it was clear the Sooners lost their composure. Several of the OU players spent time woofing at each other, the Red Raiders and the refs. Tech unnerved Oklahoma, and the more the Sooners got flustered the worse they played.

Jeremy: Down vote for flagging cameraman.
SnackAttackO1: An AR generally produces a group size of around 2" with bulk ammo. Maybe more or less depending on your particular rifle. A single round is not indicative of the rifle's true POI. It may look look like you have it right, but you will still. e a little off. Fire a carefully aimed group of 3-5 shots (the more the better) and adjust for the center of that group.

S.T. ENTERTAINMENT: what kind of grip? do you likeit?
Stetson Hays: has got to be one of the uglyest ar ive seen in a long time
Stefan Taylor: You shoot like crap
heavyhank99: I think you were only shooting about 60 yards. It didn't take too long for you to walk to the target and I counted approximately 56 foot steps.
Anthony Pegg: 1:58 "Always put it on safety when you get done". Waves barrel past camera guy
Muzzle Awareness, get it together!!
Christ Follower: Actually your statement is incorrect. The max distance with an AR is not 300 yards. I can tag a man size target very easily at 200, 300, and 500 meters open sites.
BAZ1NGA510: I just got the same scope. But when i look through the sight & turn the turret knobs i dont no movement of the reticle/target? Is that normal or do i have a defected scope?
William Kane: The reticle is designed for a 200 yd zero, with the first hash mark below the center cross hair representing 400 yd and the second representing 600 yd using a 55-grain polymer tipped bullet with a muzzle velocity of approximately 3240fps.
I'm paraphrasing the instruction manual but these are the specifications of this scope. Read the manual and you will understand the benefits/limitations of this scope. YouTube is inundated with those who don't do their homework and those whom are willing to listen to them. Wake up!!
Cass Larsen: The BDC zero for this scope is 200 yards for this scope to work as designed. Just sayin
Matthew Whitaker: At the 500 I can consistently hit a man sized target with an m4. You can definitely go further than 300 which the scope is built for. It's not supposed to be a 100 yard zero.
Manuel Bou (MiragePro): way to flag the hell out of the camera guy, id knock you the hell out.
Todd Myers: The main issue for me is having your shooting area right next to your house and not to far off to the right is the propane tank for the house. Seriously people, can we not have some common sense. The what if's are stacked against you here. What if someone comes around the corner of the house etc...
Orlando Montes: You have the ugliest AR I've ever seen. Who puts a scope on a carry handle? Why do you have that air soft butt stock on your rifle? What's up with the ugly ass flashlight on the bottom? You fail hill billy

A new poll shows that more than half of all Canadians distrust Muslims. As many as 52 percent of Canadians feel that Muslims can be trusted "a little" or "not trusted at all." The poll showed that 48 percent of respondents said Muslims can be trusted "a lot" or "somewhat." And 42 percent said discrimination against Muslims is "mainly their fault." Sociologist Jack Jedwab, executive director of the Association for Canadian Studies, concluded that Canadians hold discriminatory views and then say, "If we feel this way about you, it's your fault" (RNS).

been there, almost did it myself freshman year, but then I realized high school is the beginning of your life, and I wish your friend had came to the same conclusion, but all in all it's not even worth complaining about, and the more you complain, the worse it gets, want to enjoy your day at school more? get involved in class, look forward to the good parts of your day, don't watch the minutes count down thinking how much you hate being here and your next class is even worse, everyone has to do it, everyone ******* hates it, and everyone wishes their high school life was/is easier, so that's why I get a little worked up when people whine about high school ****

Great! Made one serving using 1 peach, 4 oz peach yogurt, 2 tablespoons frozen apple juice concentrate, 3 ice cubes and 1/8 teaspoon almond extract.
This is A GREAT TASTING SMOOTHIE! Easy to make, too, since I had everything on hand, if you count the frozen peaches (fresh ones weren't ripening quickly enough for me)! I did leave out the ice cubes & just added a few more slices of the frozen fruit! A very nice keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Beverage Tag]
This was very good. My kids loved it too. I did use frozen apple juice, as we don't have concentrates here, and it worked just fine. Thank you for posting Kelly! Made for Bevy Tag.
I loved this smoothie. I halved the concentrate and yogurt to make a bit less. Still used a whole peach. I loved the taste that teh almond extract brought to the drink. My three year old even drank this. Thanks Wildflour! Made for Bevy Tag 2009.
The first time I made this smoothie I found it to be on the sweet side, the next time I made it I made the apple juice concentrate into juice and froze them into ice cubes work great. I love the apple flavor. With the frozen apple juice ice cubes it is one of my favorite smoothies. Thanks Kelly for an awesome smoothie recipe!
Very interesting. I used approx. 16oz. plain, non-fat yogurt and a sliced frozen peach I had in the freezer. I left out the ice cubes since my peach was frozen but otherwise followed the recipe. After tasting the finished product I decided to toss in a banana too. Overall, this was pretty good. A bit too sweet for my taste, so I doubt I will make it again. But a nice change of pace from our usual strawberry orange banana smoothie combo!
I have a smoothie of some type for breakfast every morning, so I'm always on the lookout for good'uns. I halved the recipe (since it was just for me) and used a whole nectarine (with skin) instead of the half peach. I used Brown Cow peach yogurt because it has unrefined sweeteners and has a more complex bacterial profile than many brands, Penzey's almond extract because I love all their products, Cascadian Farms apple juice concentrate because I think unfiltered apple juice tastes better in addition to being more healtful, and I added a tablespoon of Himalayan goji berries that I'd soaked overnight (expensive, but I'd wanted to try them). I used frozen skim milk cubes which I keep on hand, and I also add a teaspoon of High-Desert pollen to all of my smoothies as a matter of course. Were I to make this with a fresh peach, I'd leave the skin (I have a Vita-Mix but I'm sure a regular blender could handle peach skin, especially in a recipe like this with no tough ingredients and minimal ice). Thanks for sharing; I'll be making this one again!
We SOOOOO Loved this smoothie!!! Super easy and fabulous flavor!! This will be a regular in our household!!!!
Next time will have to double the recipe! This smoothie is very tasty and love the almond flavor. We used frozen peaches and did not add the ice cubes. Thank you for sharing this recipe Kelly!

I've done my fair share of ripping on the Geithner bank plan but the reality is that banks like Bank of America (NYSE:BAC), JP Morgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) and Wells Fargo (NYSE:WFC) just received a gift and so did the broad market (NYSEARCA:SPY). So much money has been thrown at our mortgage backed security problem that it will never be a problem again. We're talking about a massive amount of money. Balance sheets will be fortified and lending will increase. From what I'm hearing, most investors have missed the glass half full aspect of this whole thing. Here is why this plan is the real deal:
1) This trillion dollar superfund is actually a more viable solution to our problems than merely suspending mark to market would have been. We all understand that we live in an era of increased transparency and getting rid of mark to market would have given us less transparency. No matter what your personal preference was with regards to m2m, it's important to remember that Geithner's solution will get the job done as well. He will be able to artificially prop up the market for those 'fur coats in August'.
2) Geithner's superfund will act as a permanent specialist for mortgage securities. The specialist acts as the market maker to facilitate normal trading conditions during abnormal circumstances. The stock market uses specialists and so should every other kind of market that may experience short term inefficiencies. Specialists actually can make a lot of money. The projections for the government to generate high returns on this deal look promising. I believe this is the reason why Geithner wanted the superfund so badly, he wants to burn those in the private sector who have caused this crisis.
3) This superfund is what Hank Paulson knew we needed all along. Go all the way back to October of 2007 when Paulson tried to bring the big banks together to form a fund but quickly found out there wasn't enough private capital to do it. He needed a trillion but couldn't get it from the private or public sector. He thought TARP 1 might be sufficient for a superfund/specialist fund but the emergency had gotten so out of control that he had to use the money for capital infusions and that was the end of that. TARP 1 ended up being a bandage for the symptoms; Geithner's superfund is the logical next step of the healing process that the Treasury has known about for over a year. For the first time we are now treating the cause. For more background read my two articles here and here.
4) It will allow the market to sustain its next rally. I have known for some time that the next bull market would not begin until a permanent solution for the banks was in place. For a moment we thought that TARP 1 might have been the solution, but as soon as Paulson began emergency capital injections, we knew that it wasn't the long term fix, this one is. Investors who fret over the lack of details are missing the big picture, the most important thing is that the Feds finally have the right amount of money to take care of this thing. It's looking like the market will once again be a safe place to invest right after we digest the dismal 1st quarter data that's coming our way in April. The market will be able to rally because of what Geithner just did.
In conclusion, this plan has been in the making for a long time. Geithner didn't just come up with it last week. The $14 trillion mortgage security market has always needed a superfund to back it up and it finally got one. This plan provides transparency going forward, it will protect the banks from future real estate corrections, and for the first time we can now start thinking about finding a true bottom in this market. The biggest winners going forward will be those stocks who have been pummeled down to nothing because of solvency issues or nationalization fears. My favorites in this sector are E-Trade (NASDAQ:ETFC) and Bank of America. I'd love to see where those stocks are trading by year end.
Disclosure: None.

Is SABA for real? Are they going higher or is this it?
I think that there are rules prohibiting buying back shares during earnings announcement times. I could be wrong but I believe that they have to wait a couple of days. Maybe it was just people believing in their contention that it is just conversion to subscription sales at a faster clip than they had anticipated. Wish that they would just get bought out.
They are presenting later this week at the Needham conference. Nothing earth shattering ever seems to happen at these things. But maybe they could pick up some new coverage.
As I predicted ... suspect it is down to some judicious buying back - whilst it was naff news it wasn't terrible so I think we should find a bottom around 6 which is what it was a month before the Q end.
Amazed that it closed above $6. Pleasantly surprised that is.
Thought that it might get taken to the woodshed with such a big cut in earnings. Hopefully it can hold this level.
You mean virtual 20. The virtual hangover should be easier than the real kind.
Re the beers ... a great idea
Let's have a virual one tonight!
Without any real coverage I don't see who is going to gobble up the shares when it dips. And I agree that there isn't much to justify a higher price anyway. Hopefully the drop won't be too bad and the current disappointing news becomes discounted pretty quickly (after a few beers...like 20).
Will be interested to see the market reaction - didn't hear the con-call
SABA has enough cash to manage the share price on current volumes - suspect we'll see a quick dip to the 5.70 mark before a recovery to 6.... but I don't see much upside from there unless I also haven't understood the figures
Long run they have to do something to justify the growth tag
Looks like they revamped their website overnight. Frankly, I think that the previous design was better.
I just don't see the growth that they are talking about. It seems like the same spin that Bobby has been putting out there forever. Did you listen to the conference call? They sounded ecstatic talking about growth in deal size etc.
Saas or no Saas, a growing enterprise software company should be reporting big sales gains and raising sales estimates. In that scenario if income has to take a hit because of investment in the business...fine. That doesn't seem to be the case with Saba. They are cutting income estimates by 60% on lower revenue.
As for the share price I have no idea. I really thought this had a chance to be a watershed quarter. Very disappointed. Hope somehow that I am just misunderstanding the model...But I don't think that I am.
Kind of agree - the one thing that perked me up was the 14% growth in orders - what's your view.
Going on what little I saw of the after hours (-12%) they'll show quite a dip this a.m. but I suspect the buy back will trip in.... an opp for the day traders!

I HATE my cutterpede. I just find that it doesn't cut straight. I had a cricut one which I didn't like.
I have recently purchased the new Stampin Up cutter. It has a larger base than the other two I own. I like that. It is over 6' so the paper can sit on the board well. I bought this cutter before I joined up to Stampin Up. So far it is holding up well. You never know with them though. Often a cutter will work well for 4 months but with the amount I use my cutters they wear out quickly. Ask me in a few months if I still love it. lol

Hi! My name is Carolyn, I am retired. I have been researching my Family Tree for thirty years. I think it is important to know your ancestors. I have been concentrating on my mother's side of the family. This includes the Broussard's, Carr's, Hargraves' and Hamshire's. I have been taking pictures of graves in southeast Texas cemeteries: Broussard's, Landrum, Fairview, High Island, Port Bolivar, Caplen, LaBelle, Pace and McGaffey in Sabine Pass, Restlawn in Vidor, Evergreen in Orange, Magnolia and Forest Lawn in Beaumont. This is Jefferson, Chambers, Galveston and Orange Counties. I have over 2,452 photos, and some are not related. If I have made any errors please contact me and I will gladly correct it. I have spent many, many hours researching. I am looking for George Washington Hargrave's, Matilda Hampshire Hargraves, and Levi Carr's graves if you can help me I would appreciate it.
I am working on my father's side of the family now. I am looking for Jeff Taylor. My grandfather. Also, Moorman, my grandmother's maiden name and her mother was a Rivers. If you have any information on these names, please email me.
Enjoy my research! Thank you. Carolyn

RE: Noah Tevis in Jirou Cemetery
I'm Sorry but I don't really know. A site I have says it is located at 1350 Pennsylvania Ave. Beaumont, Jefferson County, Texas. I don't know if this is correct or not. The cemetery must be rather small as find a grave has only three people listed as being interred there. I found out about it by doing family research where it lists Noah Tevis being buried there. Noah Tevis was the brother of my GGGGrandfather, Robert Tevis the third. I wish I could be more helpful. Marvin Roach.

As noted in this space earlier this week, Tyler Smith's next stop appears to be Tennessee. The former Giles County High School star grew up a Vol fan and signed with the program in November of 2004. When Bruce Pearl replaced Buzz Peterson as head coach in March of 2005, however, Tyler balked. He spent a year at Hargrave Military Academy in Virginia, then signed with Iowa, where he was third-team All-Big Ten as a freshman.
Now that his father is sick and the man who signed him (Steve Alford) has left Iowa to take the reins at New Mexico, Tyler Smith is looking to return to his home state. Iowa's decision to release him was the first step in that process.
"Tennessee is where I want to go. I've always liked Tennessee," Tyler Smith told The Tennessean. "They're the only school I'm looking at right now, and it's close to home. It makes the most sense for me and my dad. I hope it works out this time."
Smith must sit out the 2007-08 season as a transfer unless the NCAA grants him a hardship ruling due to "extenuating family circumstances." Given Billy Smith's illness, there is a good chance Tyler will get such a waiver.
Pearl cannot comment on unsigned recruits. However, the Vol coach reportedly will seek input from his returning players before accepting Smith as a transfer.
Smith averaged 14.9 points for Iowa last fall, ranking second on the team in that category and also in assists (111). He led the team in rebounds (153) and steals (45) en route to first-team Big Ten All-Freshman recognition.

The Bulls' slim chance of snatching a place in the Super Rugby play-offs vanished in Cape Town on Sunday after a 16-0 loss to the Stormers.
The Bulls needed a win to have any hope of a top-six finish and inclusion in the knock-out phase.
But they had no answer to the more committed and creative Stormers during the first half and turned over 16 points behind at a cold, wet Newlands stadium.
There were no points scored in the second half with Stormers first-five Kurt Coleman coming closest through a penalty kick that rebounded off the post.
This proved the only miss of the match by Coleman, who contributed 11 points from three penalty goals and the conversion of a try from full-back Jaco Taute.
It was the fourth win in a row by the resurgent Stormers, whose play-off dreams ended many weeks ago after a disastrous start to the season.
The Bulls lost all eight away matches this season and the failure to score any points was deeply embarrassing for the most successful South African side in Super Rugby.
Renowned for powerful packs, the Bulls struggled at the scrums with loose-head prop Dean Greyling repeatedly penalised for illegal positioning.
A Bulls team wearing camouflage shirts were on the defensive from the kick-off and fell behind after five minutes when Coleman kicked his first penalty.
The lone try came on 14 minutes thanks to a midfield break by Coleman and flanker Nizaam Carr carried the ball forward before sending Taute over.
Coleman converted to give the Stormers a 10-point advantage midway through the opening half.
The Bulls became frustrated at being repeatedly penalised and veteran lock and skipper Victor Matfield argued with referee Craig Joubert after one decision.
Coleman potted further penalties on 24 and 40 minutes as the Stormers maintained an iron grip on the game with the Bulls rarely threatening to score.
The visitors won far more possession during the second half and spent long periods camped deep in Stormers' territory. But they lacked imagination, relying too often on over-hit kicks or trying to barge through an unyielding defence.

Robust regression in Stata
In regression analysis, the presence of outliers in the dataset can strongly distort the classical least-squares estimator and lead to unreliable results. To deal with this, several robust-to-outliers methods have been proposed in the statistical literature. In Stata, some of these methods are available through the rreg and qreg commands. Unfortunately, these methods resist only some specific types of outliers and turn out to be ineffective under alternative scenarios. In this article, we present more effective robust estimators that we implemented in Stata. We also present a graphical tool that recognizes the type of detected outliers.

Forrester - Focus Your Network Strategy on User Experience, Not Application Delivery
Networking isn't about applications or technology — it's about users. The business pressure to consolidate IT, support empowered users, and provide customised experiences to customers is stressing today's architectures and reshaping networks. The old approach of building networks around applications is too static. Read more.
Maintaining control over cloud access, collaborative applications, and user mobility are three of the major challenges to protecting data and files that enterprise IT departments face. Alongside the task of maintaining appropriate enterprise network resource access, organizations need file protection products that offer appropriate levels of control for the internal users and the variety of external users requiring access to sensitive and/or regulated information. Satisfying these challenges is necessary to protect the intellectual property of the business and its market position, and to manage the reputation and liability risks associated with privacy and compliance.

'My First'
I hope "My First" is the last. From the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview, I'm John Stonestreet with The Point.
MTV recently killed the idea for a reality show that would have followed young adults on their journeys to losing their virginity.
The network's online announcement for the show that would have been called "My First" asked potential applicants to "tell us why you've never 'done it' before and why now's the time to 'lose it.' Please be as detailed as possible. We won't judge — the more you can share, the better!"
The show would have fit nicely with other MTV reality shows like the popular "16 and Pregnant." Almost every show on the network, whose president once said, "we don't shoot for teenagers, we own them," has been reduced to a sick sort of voyeurism into the extorted lives of perpetual adolescents. It's been an astounding decade of no creativity for MTV, and like watching train wrecks we seem unable to turn away from. Not sure if that says more about the quality of MTV's editorial team, or our declining cultural tastes. I'm glad they canceled the show. For The PointRadio.org, I'm John Stonestreet.

Adjustable belt
by James on 2/28/2013
This item is billed as one size fits all, but it is limited to a 44 waste or smaller. There are no punched holes. You can cut the belt to fit or leave it at full size and punch holes where you need them. It looks nice. Since I just got it, I have no idea on durability.

Diet Discrepancies

Your Rating
Do you consider yourself healthy? How about when it comes to your eating habits?
Turns out the majority of U.S. adults (80 percent) consider themselves to be healthy, yet when asked specifically about their eating behaviors, only one in five adults could be classified as "most healthy eaters." Such are the findings in the latest round of research from The NPD Group, a leading market research company. The data, released last month, also reveals that 65 percent of adults are overweight or obese, according to their body mass index (BMI).
Interestingly, despite the overly positive assessment people have of their own health, almost half of all U.S. adults (104 million) recognize the need to change their diet in order to improve the overall healthfulness of their lives. According to NPD's "The Market for Functional Foods" report, adults define healthy eating differently: Fifty-five percent of the 1,921 adults surveyed said that eating healthy is equally adding to and taking out of their diet. Of the remaining adults surveyed, 26 percent said that "adding something to the diet" is healthy eating, and 19 percent said that "taking something out" of the diet is.
Dieting, which is traditionally more about taking something out of the diet, is not the health or weight management solution it once was for U.S. adults, NPD reports. In 2011, 21 percent of adults claimed to be on a diet, down from the 24 percent who claimed to be on a diet in 2004. As for adding something to a diet, U.S. adults and kids turn to an easier solution like taking vitamins, according to "The Market for Functional Foods" report findings. Vitamin supplement usage is on the rise among both kids and adults.

The mid-range GPU's aren't meant for maxing out games. You can max console ports that are easy to run but show me you maxing out a game like Crysis 3 or Arma 3 with a GTX 660 GPU. I get 30-35 FPS maxing out Arma 3 on my rig at 1080p and 40-60 if I turn everything to very high instead of ultra.

I'm not one to bluff. Okay guys, tell me how to prove it and I will. I never played Arama but I have Crysis 3 maxed at 1080p and my framerates are exactly as I mentioned above. I mean, I could make a video (does fraps include the fps on screen while recording?) but I'm not sure how I'd prove its running on the same system as the card. Other games I am currently maxing is GTA IV (old I know), Witcher 2 (may not be all max have to check), Sleeping Dogs, Tomb Raider, Grid 2, Skyrim and a few others.
I honestly don't care who believes me or not but if you give me a way to prove it I'd love to shove it right in the face of some of you elitists.

I'm not sure how I'd prove its running on the same system as the card.
Tab out, record what CPU-Z says about your system, or the Nvidia control panel, and then tab back into the game. Simple as that.
If AMD goes down Intel might safely release i9 for $300 and i7 for $200 and i5 for $100 and i3 for free. - su27Chaos

Stand up for consumer rights! Vote with your dollar! Boycott Xbox One!!!
It's that you're claiming something that frankly isn't possible. A 660 is a 660. At absolute best it could match a 660 Ti, maybe 670. Neither of those cards is capable of maxing every game consistently between 40-60FPS. Either your FPS is wrong or you aren't actually maxing the games.
May thine...strength...help the world be mended
a 660 cant max current game.
You will run in 1080p with no AA with mostly everything maxed (depends of the games, most of the time you have to put some options down a bit) and have fps from 30 to 60 in current games
Anyone who says a 660 is maxing 'current' games at 1080p is a liar
And btw I got a 660 ti on this pc.
DarkZV2Beta 3 years ago#19
660 is a solid card and can perform well in 1920x1080. That it doesn't max, it runs at high settings. 7870 generally performs a bit better if you can get it for the same price.
I'd put 660 as a good $180-190 card, and 7870 as a good $190-200 card.

Ball and Cup on ps mobile has framerate issues. -stargazer64
People just don't know what "max" is. Max means every setting at their MAX including anti aliasing. I have a GTX660, it really can't play many games at 16x AA with ultra shadows/settings etc. without slowing down substantially.
Having said that, usually above 4 or 8x AA is just not worth it, and usually I don't mind turning down shadows one notch. Then I got sick of that and ordered a 2nd one, runs pretty well, but I still can't "max" a demanding game. Getting stuff to run at 16X AA just isn't worth the price you must pay.

A Montgomery County man, who allegedly made straw purchases of handguns in exchange for heroin, was arrested Friday and charged with numerous weapons counts.
Michael Veneziale, of Hatfield, bought 15 guns during a three-year period, investigators said. One of Veneziale's buyers, Jose Torres, was later shot dead by police in Kensington as Torres pointed a gun at officers. After his arrest, the 25-year-old Veneziale admitted he bought a 9mm Glock for Torres in exchange for three bundles of heroin, said Tasha Jamerson, spokeswoman for the Philadelphia District Attorney's office.

If you are one of those people who believes there is no such thing as a coincidence, you'll have to ask if the Washington Post is pushing one of its editors' spousal agendas.Reuters reported a while back that the Federal Trade Commission was considering ending "pay for delay" practices with generic drugs.Basically, when a generic drug manufacturer is ready to come on the scene with a generic, a name brand pharmaceutical company pays the generic to delay entry to the market. Well, the FTC cannot really stop it, but it has been urging Congress to do something about it. One of the FTC Commissioners pushing an end to "pay to delay" is Jon Leibowitz, who acts as chairman.From Reuters:
The 21 deals in the first nine months of the 2010 fiscal year is up sharply from the 19 made in all of 2009, and up from 16 deals in 2008 and 14 in 2006 and 2007, the FTC said.But lawmakers also questioned whether the FTC overstepped its bounds during a specific pay-for-delay probe.At the hearing of a House of Representatives judiciary subcommittee, some lawmakers questioned FTC Chairman Jon Leibowitz about criticisms of the agency's probe of generic drug company Watson Pharmaceuticals (WPI.N).
Yesterday, the Senate Appropriations Committee took up the matter and voted 15 to 15 on a measure ending "pay to delay." On the exact same day as the Senate Appropriations Committee was voting, the Washington Post editorialized about this not widely noticed issue.Sitting on the Washington Post editorial board is Ruth Marcus. Ms. Marcus is also known as Mrs. Jon Leibowitz.The vote sounds like a good idea. It probably will help lower drug prices. That's not the point. Shouldn't the Washington Post disclose that one of its editorial board members is married to one of the FTC Commissioners who has been pushing this issue?Would the Washington Post have paid attention to an Appropriations Committee vote on this matter otherwise?Were it a blog post at a blog, the Washington Post would no doubt take issue with what seems to be an undisclosed conflict. But I guess when you're the MSM you can do things you wouldn't want others to do.

Off to the garage! Google the term "innovation" and you'll get about 500 million hits. There are technical innovations. Economic innovations. Social innovations. Some change the world. Some don't. Some can be the key to a company's success. Some are just buzzwords. According to Fredmund Malik, a leading management theorist, there is too much hype around innovation. And too little professionalism.Learn more

Vibram Updated: Two weeks out
I've been wearing the Vibrams exclusively to Crossfit to lift and run just last week, I was able to run my first unbroken mile ever. Granted, it took me over 11 minutes, but still. I did it.
And what surprised me more than anything was that I didn't hate it. I felt good and strong. I felt like I could have kept going. My feet didn't hurt and I didn't hate and curse every step. My shins and hip flexor didn't hurt the next day. Could running actually be not so awful? I mean, I HATE running. HATE. Or do it?
So I decided to start running a bit on my Crossfit rest days. (Who needs real rest?) The first night I left, I was able to run 1.83 miles, but it was broken up by me FALLING on a main road. Yeah, that was fun. I had to walk of the shock and assess injuries and once it was clear I was fine, I ran the rest of the way back.
Today I decided to drive to a local botanical garden and run the inner loop as many times as I could. I made it four laps in around 31 minutes, stopping only for a sip of water here and there. When I got home, I logged the run into mapmyrun.com and found out that each loop was around .6 miles, making the whole run around 2.4 miles, although somehow, when I clicked 4 loops on mapmyrun, it told me it was 2.51. Not sure who is wrong here.
Anyway, the whole point is this. If you would have told me six months ago that I would not only be in shape enough to run two and a half unbroken miles let alone enjoy it, I would have laughed. But here I am. Crossfit has gotten me into so much better shape than I have ever been in and the Vibrams really make running an entirely different experience.
I just signed up for a 5K Monster Mud Dash.
I don't even know who I am anymore.
