Marcus Allen is looking for a few good men. To be honest, he is looking for a lot of good men, black men like himself, to be mentors and role models, to make a difference in the lives of boys without them.
"We need more men of color. Our community needs to see us get involved," said Allen, the first black man to lead Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southeastern Pennsylvania in its century of service. The organization, which mentors almost 3,000 children in Philadelphia, Montgomery, Delaware, and Chester Counties, has a waiting list of more than 1,100 hopeful "Littles," the overwhelming majority black and biracial boys, yet black men represent only 15 percent of volunteers.

GOLD FORECAST IS $2700 FOR 2013 AND MORE BEYOND 0 comments
On this special report I spoke at length with Steve Roy with the Equity Management Academy, where the focus is MANAGING WEALTH, through education. Here is his forecast for where Gold may be heading in 2013. Roy's analysis uses Fibonacci, Gann, Wave analysis (not necessarily Elliott), Moving Averages, as well as Proprietary techniques.
Click here to see charts and VIDEO
Gold hit its all-time high in September of 2011 at $1923.70, as seen using the monthly continuation chart, and has since, been consolidating. So let's see if we can get some idea of where we are now, and my opinion of where we are going this year and beyond.
First let's see where we have been. I am using the low in 1976 at $100.00 to the high in 1980 at $873.00 as my WAVE 1 of 5. Using the Fibonacci expansion tool, you can see that we are currently around the 2.00 level at $1646.00, which is the minimum for a WAVE 3 completion. We will see, however, that it appears to me that we are not finished this wave yet.
I believe that we have completed the 3rd wave of 5 in WAVE 3, and are in the beginning stages of wave 5 of the larger WAVE 3. The next level up is the 2.618 expansion level at $2123.70, and the 3.236 level is at $2601.40, so keep those prices in mind. I have also added the 41 month cycle, which is from the low to the high of WAVE 1. This cycle comes in again in March of 2014.
The market corrected this wave 1 until it bottomed at $253.20 in July of 1999. That's about 19 years. So, using that time period as a guide, the next impulse wave should complete around 2018. So we will start our WAVE 3 analysis from the 1999 low. We are looking at the Fibonacci retracement of wave 1. Note that the price corrected down to the .382 retracement level. That was the wave 2 correction. I have also added the 104 month cycle, which covers the low to the high of wave 1.
This cycle ends in November of 2016. I have added the Fibonacci expansion to Wave 1 of WAVE 3. Note that so far, wave 3 which began in October of 2008, has also hit the Fibonacci 2.00 expansion of wave 1 at $1814.60, again, the MINIMUM objective to complete a wave 3. The 2.618 expansion comes in at $2297.10, and the 3.236 expansion is at $2779.50. Keep those prices in mind.
I know that at this point there is probably a lot of discussion of how I am determining the waves, so I'll take a few minutes to show you. Here, I have added our moving averages to the weekly chart of WAVE 3 starting in 1999.
This gives you a better view of the action. In my wave analysis, a corrective wave is not confirmed until the PRICE, as well as ALL THREE of the moving averages turn down, and confirmation of next wave beginning when the price and moving averages are moving higher again. So, wave 1 ended in March of 2008 and wave 3 began in October of 2008. We also see similar action up here, but here's an interesting point to note!!!
We have not even hit the .382 Fib retracement yet. If you drop down to a daily chart, you will see that we have met my criterion that the correction is over and the next leg up has begun. The fact that we did not get down to the .382 retracement indicates to me that the next leg up could be explosive!!
In this chart, we are looking at the Gann fan from the beginning of wave 3 of WAVE 3 to the current high of that wave at $1923.70. The 1x1 line intersects with the 1.618 expansion during the week of June 21st of 2013.
OK, we're now in the home stretch. I have now added a Gann fan from the low in 1999 to the end of wave 1 of WAVE3 in 2008. We have since broken above the 1x1 line and should head up to the 2x1 line for the next target. That line is above the 1.618 Fib expansion line of wave 3 of WAVE 3 at $2691.70 all year long.
In this chart, I have both Gann fans together. You can see that they intersect above the 1.618 expansion line during the week of August 16. So based on this analysis, my forecast for Gold prices in 2013 is that we will see AT LEAST $2692.00, on its way up to much higher prices in 2014 and beyond.Back To Patrick MontesDeOca's Instablog HomePage »

Dream your most desired vacation. Then come to magical Maui, one of the world's most elite vacation destinations. How better to experience our island than by renting from an owner who has combined her own personal getaway with the conveniences of home and the leisurely delights of a vacation in the sun. Renting from the owner allows you to enjoy private home amenities while avoiding the congestion of resorts and hotels.
My home is located on lovely Ma'alaea Bay, wintertime sanctuary to many humpback whales and their calves. A favorite pastime of residents is reclining on a lounger watching the antics of our oceanic friends.
Just to the west of us is Ma'alaea Marina, home to many yachts and touring boats and the Ma'alaea Village shops. Off to the east is the long sandy span of Sugar Beach, perfect for early morning beach walking. Several good eateries are located within walking distance including one of Maui's top award winning seafood restaurants, The Waterfront.
The Waterfront is one of Maui's top award-winning seafood restaurants. The renowned Maui Ocean Center aquarium is only steps away. All in all, this central location is within easy reach of the sights and attractions of Maui.
My condo at the Ma'alaea Kai is an oceanfront walkout. Newly renovated, it embraces the ambiance of the islands with the luxury and comfort of a perfect vacation getaway. Both pool and grilling area are only steps from the lanai against the backdrop of the ocean views and the sounds of the waves and the breezes in the palm trees.
I would love to share my getaway with you. It gives me great pleasure to have others experience the exquisite gem that is Maui. Its setting, its rain forests, mountains, beaches, upcountry adventures, and the underwater world to explore, make Maui truly magical.
You dream it, Maui has it!!
Whether your ideal of relaxation is active or passive, you find it on Maui.
Take your pick of:
World Class Golf Courses,
Pristine Beaches,
World Renowned Chefs,
Scuba Diving, Snorkeling,
Whale Watching,
Deep Sea Fishing,
Surfing, Kite Surfing, Wind Surfing,
Bicycling Down a Mountain,
Hiking, Beach Walking, Swimming,
Sunset Cruises,
Tropical Rain Forests,
Volcanic Landscapes,
Bamboo Forest Trails,
Designer Shops & Local Boutiques,
Old Lahaina Town,
Quaint Paia village,
Local Cuisine in Local Favorite Cafes,
Ultra-fine Dining.
Explore, Enjoy!
Aloha, I started my career as a flight attendant for Northwest Airlines in 1972 and
after 37 years I am retired. Maui was my favorite destination and it still is. I was fortunate to have had the ability to fly there numerous times a year to escape the Minneasota winters. Sharing my home away from home on wonderful Maui is a joy to me.
I hope I hear from you soon.
Barbara Olson purchased this condo in 2001
It is a hidden paradise
My condo is fabulous and the view is the best on the island. You will not find a more central location for your journeys around the island.
This property is absolutely gorgeous. We loved staying in Ma'alea. It's very central, yet quiet and off the beaten track. The unit itself is gorgeous, clean, and well equipped. The patio opens up to the softest green grass leading to the bbq's overlooking the sea. There is no beach in front of the condo, but we really didn't miss it. We were still able to take in the beauty of the ocean, along with the sea turtles that are everywhere you look right off your back porch. I highly recommend this beautiful property and unit 112. You will not be disappointed. It's magical.
We came to Maui to celebrate our 20th anniversary. The weather was somewhat uncooperative, but even on rainy nights, it was such a wonderful place to stay! It's quiet and the bed is so comfortable that you fall asleep instantly. The property has everything you could want and more. Walk right out to the pool which is a perfect temperature, walk out to the ocean and watch the huge sea turtles come in for their evening meal, enjoy coffee or drinks on the lanai (even in the rain), and enjoy the wonderful condo. It's exceptionally clean, with Hawaiian décor. The location is perfect, you can go anywhere easily. Thank you SO much Barbara, for sharing your beautiful property with us! We'd love to come back soon.
Just like every other review, what an amazing place. She had everything you could think of. Amazing view every morning.
Our stay at the condo made this trip to Maui our favorite yet. The location allowed for the perfect mix of peace & quiet as well as quick access to all of the fun activities & restaurants that Maui is known for. The condo was very clean & fully stocked with all the comforts of home as well as everything you could need while on Maui. In fact, I recommend that you really look around before renting snorkel equipment, beach needs, or the grocery store. The pictures show exactly what you get ... with the water just steps away. We couldn't have asked for anything more.
This condo is absolutely perfect in every single way! It's as if the owner prepared the condo for herself to stay in, and then left it for us to enjoy! Everything we needed for a fabulous day at the beach was made handy at the condo (we loved the beach chairs with the hidden cooler compartments on the back), the view is absolutely stunning (you can't beat that Maui sunrise), and she had all the staples available to make our own meals. The A/C works perfectly and cools the condo quickly, and the location of the condo is nice and quiet. This condo is well stocked, and has everything needed for a comfortable, relaxing stay. When we return to Maui, there is absolutely no where else we would stay. The resorts can't compare to this condo!
We spent five days in this beautiful condo and we were very impressed. It had all the amenities needed for a relaxing stay. We loved waking up to the view of the ocean and Molokini Crater while sitting on the lanai and listening to the geckos talk to us as well. The A/C worked very well to quickly cool off the rooms for an comfortable stay. We highly recommend this condo to stay and will definitely be returning.
Other Activities: The Ocean center aquarium and the Ma'alaea Marina where you can charter fishing boats, take a whale watch, dinner cruise, sunset cruise or go snorkeling over to Molokini is walking distance from the condo. There are also shops and restaurants there.

Read an Excerpt
Every mind on earth capable of understanding the problem was focused on the spaceship and the ultimatum delivered by its occupants. Talk or Die! blared the newspaper headlines.
The suicide rate was up and still climbing. Religious cults were having a field day. A book by a science fiction author: "What the Deadly Inter-Galactic Spaceship Means to You!" had smashed all previous best-seller records. And this had been going on for a frantic seven months.
The ship had flapped out of a gun-metal sky over Oregon, its shape that of a hideously magnified paramecium with edges that rippled like a mythological flying carpet. Its five greenskinned, froglike occupants had delivered the ultimatum, one copy printed on velvety paper to each major government, each copy couched faultlessly in the appropriate native tongue:
"You are requested to assemble your most gifted experts in human communication. We are about to submit a problem. We will open five identical rooms of our vessel to you. One of us will be available in each room.
"Your problem: To communicate with us.
"If you succeed, your rewards will be great.
"If you fail, that will result in destruction for all sentient life on your planet.
"We announce this threat with the deepest regret. You are urged to examine Eniwetok atoll for a small display of our power. Your artificial satellites have been removed from the skies.
"You must break away this limited communication!"
Eniwetok had been cleared off flat as a table at one thousand feet depth ... with no trace of explosion! All Russian and United States artificial satellites hadbeen combed from the skies.
All day long a damp wind poured up the Columbia Gorge from the ocean. It swept across the Eastern Oregon alkali flats with a false prediction of rain. Spiny desert scrub bent before the gusts, sheltering blur-footed coveys of quail and flop-eared jackrabbits. Heaps of tumbleweed tangled in the fence lines, and the air was filled with dry particles of grit that crept under everything and into everything and onto everything with the omnipresence of filterable virus.
On the fiats south of the Hermiston Ordnance Depot the weird bulk of the spaceship caught pockets and eddies of sand. The thing looked like a monstrous oval of dun canvas draped across upright sticks. A cluster of quonsets and the Army's new desert prefabs dotted a rough half-circle around the north rim. They looked like dwarfed outbuildings for the most gigantic circus tent Earth had ever seen. Army Engineers said the ship was six thousand two hundred and eighteen feet long, one thousand and fifty-four feet wide.
Some five miles east of the site the dust storm hazed across the monotonous structures of the cantonment that housed some thirty thousand people from every major nation: Linguists, anthropologists, psychologists, doctors of every shape and description, watchers and watchers for the watchers, spies, espionage and counter-espionage agents.
For seven months the threat of Eniwetok, the threat of the unknown as well, had held them in check.
Toward evening of this day the wind slackened. The drifted sand began sifting off the ship and back into new shapes, trickling down for all the world like the figurative "sands of time" that here were most certainly running out.
Mrs. Francine Millar, clinical psychologist with the Indo-European Germanic-Root team, hurried across the bare patch of trampled sand outside the spaceship's entrance. She bent her head against what was left of the windstorm. Under her left arm she carried her briefcase tucked up like a football. Her other hand carried a rolled-up copy of that afternoon's Oregon Journal. The lead story said that Air Force jets had shot down a small private plane trying to sneak into the restricted area.
Three unidentified men killed. The plane had been stolen. Thoughts of a plane crash made her too aware of the circumstances in her own recent widowhood. Dr. Robert Millar had died in the crash of a trans-Atlantic passenger plane ten days before the arrival of the spaceship. She let the newspaper fall out of her hands. It fluttered away on the wind.
Francine turned her head away from a sudden biting of the sandblast wind. She was a wiry slim figure of about five feet six inches, still trim and athletic at forty-one. Her auburn hair, mussed by the wind, still carried the look of youth. Heavy lids shielded her blue eyes. The lids drooped slightly, giving her a perpetual sleepy look even when she was wide awake and alert--a circumstance she found helpful in her profession.
She came into the lee of the conference quonset, and straightened. A layer of sand covered the doorstep. She opened the door, stepped across the sand only to find more of it on the floor inside, grinding underfoot. It was on tables, on chairs, mounded in corners--on every surface.
Hikonojo Ohashi, Francine's opposite number with the Japanese-Korean and Sino-Tibetan team, already sat at his place on the other side of the table. The Japanese psychologist was grasping, pen fashion, a thin pointed brush, making notes in ideographic shorthand.
Francine closed the door.
Ohashi spoke without looking up: "We're early."
He was a trim, neat little man: flat features, smooth cheeks, and even curve of chin, remote dark eyes behind the inevitable thick lenses of the Oriental scholar.
Francine tossed her briefcase onto the table, and pulled out a chair opposite Ohashi. She wiped away the grit with a handkerchief before sitting down. The ever present dirt, the monotonous landscape, her own frustration--all combined to hold her on the edge of anger. She recognized the feeling and its source, stifled a wry smile.
"No, Hiko," she said. "I think we're late. It's later than we think."
"Much later when you put it that way," said Ohashi. His Princeton accent came out low, modulated like a musical instrument under the control of a master.
"Now we're going to be banal," she said. Immediately, she regretted the sharpness of her tone, forced a smile to her lips.
"They gave us no deadline," said Ohashi. "That is one thing anyway." He twirled his brush across an inkstone.
"Something's in the air," she said. "I can feel it."
"Very much sand in the air," he said.
"You know what I mean," she said.
"The wind has us all on edge," he said. "It feels like rain. A change in the weather." He made another note, put down the brush, and began setting out papers for the conference. All at once, his head came up. He smiled at Francine. The smile made him look immature, and she suddenly saw back through the years to a serious little boy named Hiko Ohashi.
"It's been seven months," she said. "It stands to reason that they're not going to wait forever."
"The usual gestation period is two months longer," he said.
She frowned, ignoring the quip. "But we're no closer today than we were at the beginning!"
Ohashi leaned forward. His eyes appeared to swell behind the thick lenses. "Do you often wonder at their insistence that we communicate with them? I mean, rather than the other way around?"
"Of course I do. So does everybody else."
He sat back. "What do you think of the Islamic team's approach?"
"You know what I think, Hiko. It's a waste of time to compare all the Galactics' speech sounds to passages from the Koran." She shrugged. "But for all we know actually they could be closer to a solution than anyone else in...
The door behind her banged open. Immediately, the room rumbled with the great basso voice of Theodore Zakheim, psychologist with the Ural-Altaic team.
"Hah-haaaaaaa!" he roared. "We're all here now!"
Light footsteps behind Zakheim told Francine that he was accompanied by Emile Goré of the Indo-European Latin-Root team.
Zakheim flopped onto a chair beside Francine. It creaked dangerously to his bulk.
Like a great uncouth bear! she thought.
"Do you always have to be so noisy?" she asked.
Goré slammed the door behind them.
"Naturally!" boomed Zakheim. "I am noisy! It's my nature, my little puchkin!"
Goré moved behind Francine, passing to the head of the table, but she kept her attention on Zakheim. He was a thick-bodied man, thick without fat, like the heaviness of a wrestler. His wide face and slanting pale blue eyes carried hints of Mongol ancestry. Rusty hair formed an uncombed brush atop his head.
Zakheim brought up his briefcase, flopped it onto the table, rested his hands on the dark leather. They were flat slab hands with thick fingers, pale wisps of hair growing down almost to the nails.
She tore her attention away from Zakheim's hands, looked down the table to where Goré sat. The Frenchman was a tall, gawk-necked man, entirely bald. Jet eyes behind steel-rimmed bifocals gave him a look of down-nose asperity like a comic bird. He wore one of his usual funereal black suits, every button secured. Knob wrists protruded from the sleeves. His long-fingered hands with their thick joints moved in constant restlessness.
"If I may differ with you, Zak," said Goré, "we are not all here. This is our same old group, and we were going to try to interest others in what we do here."
Ohashi spoke to Francine: "Have you had any luck inviting others to our conferences?"
"You can see that I'm alone," she said. "I chalked up five flat refusals today."
'Who?" asked Zakheim.
"The American Indian-Eskimo, the Hyperboreans, the Dravidians, the Malayo-Polynesians and the Caucasians."
"Hagglers!" barked Zakheim. "I, of course, can cover us with the Hamito-Semitic tongues, but..." He shook his head.
Goré turned to Ohashi. "The others?"
Ohashi said: "I must report the polite indifference of the Munda and Mon-Kmer, the Sudanese-Guinean and the Bantu."
"Those are big holes in our information exchange," said Goré. "What are they discovering?"
"No more than we are!" snapped Zakheim. "Depend on it!"
"What of the languages not even represented among the teams here on the international site?" asked Francine. "I mean the Hottentot-Bushmen, the Ainu, the Basque and the Australian-Papuan?"
Zakheim covered her left hand with his right hand. "You always have me, my little dove."
"We're building another Tower of Babel!" she snapped. She jerked her hand away.
"Spurned again," mourned Zakheim.
Ohashi said: "Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech." He smiled. "Genesis eleven-seven."
Francine scowled. "And we're missing about twenty percent of Earth's twenty-eight hundred languages!"
"We have all the significant ones," said Zakheim.
"How do you know what's significant?" she demanded.
"Please!" Goré raised a hand. "We're here to exchange information, not to squabble!"
"I'm sorry," said Francine. "It's just that I feel so hopeless today."
"Well, what have we learned today?" asked Goré.
"Nothing new with us," said Zakheim.
Goré cleared his throat. "That goes double for me." He looked at Ohashi.
The Japanese shrugged. "We achieved no reaction from the Galactic, Kobai."
"Anthropomorphic nonsense," muttered Zakheim.
"You mean naming him Kobai?" asked Ohashi. "Not at all, Zak. That's the most frequent sound he makes, and the name helps with identification. We don't have to keep referring to him as 'The Galactic' or 'that creature in the spaceship'."
Goré turned to Francine. "It was like talking to a green statue," she said.
"What of the lecture period?" asked Goré.
"Who knows?" she asked. "It stands there like a bowlegged professor in that black leotard. Those sounds spew out of it as though they'd never stop. It wriggles at us. It waves. It sways. Its face contorts, if you can call it a face. We recorded and filmed it all, naturally, but it sounded like the usual mish-mash!"
"There's something in the gestures," said Ohashi. "If we only had more competent pasimolgists."
"How many times have you seen the same total gesture repeated with the same sound?" demanded Zakheim.
"You've carefully studied our films," said Ohashi. "Not enough times to give us a solid base for comparison. But I do not despair--
"It was a rhetorical question," said Zakheim.
"We really need more multi-linguists," said Goré. "Now is when we most miss the loss of such great linguists as Mrs. Millar's husband."

1Hz Clock Generator using PIC12F675
Based on the idea from http://www.josepino.com/pic_projects/?timebase I have created a 1Hz Clock Generator. I use PIC12F675 as it's available locally. Its price is just about US$1.
The concept is using 32.768kHz crystal as a clock for the PIC. Therefor, the internal instruction clock is 32768/4 = 8192 Hz. By using the 16 bit Timer1 to count the instruction clock cycles, the interrupt will occur every 8 second. This period can be reduced by setting initial value of the Timer1 (TMR1H:TMR1L).

5 Soups to Soothe a Cold
Recipe: Hot & Sour Mushroom, Cabbage, and Rice Soup - I like this tangy, spicy soup best when made with turkey broth, but you can also use vegetable broth for a vegan soup. There's so much flavor, regardless of what kind of broth you use: mushrooms, lime, soy sauce, rice, and cabbage make this a tasty and nutritious powerhouse. • 2 Miso Soup (Rice and Poached Egg Optional) - Miso soup is one of those soups I can make even when feeling my worst. A little canned broth, and a tablespoon of miso paste. If someone else is cooking, I might ask them to stir in some rice or even a poached egg for protein. • 3 Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup - If a friend is bringing dinner, ask for this — it's rich and beefy, with all those slurpy noodles — the ultimate comfort food. • 4 Tangy Mulligatawny with Turkey - Another turkey soup, this one an old mashup of British and Indian influences, with some spice to clear out your sinuses. • 5 How To Make Easy Chicken Noodle Soup - And then, the classic. Mama's penicillin. This is the best reason to stockpile homemade chicken broth after you roast a chicken. Those are my top five picks. What are yours? What kind of soup do you crave when you're not feeling your best? Related: From Chicken Noodle to Egg Drop: 10 Soothing Broth-Based Soups (Images: See linked recipes for full image credits)

The Horror! The Horror! 1922 Fright Fest Rears Its Lovable Head Again
Bruce Chadwick
The Cat and the Canary Unicorn Theater 6 East Street Stockbridge, MassachusettsThe Cat and the Canary is one of the most successful plays and horror movies of all time. It has been staged endlessly in its nearly 100 year history and Hollywood has turned it into a movie six different times. It is even the basis for the legendary Haunted Mansion at Disney World, in Orlando, Florida.You can understand why at the Unicorn Theater, in the Berkshires, where it is up and running, and scaring, once again. The fright fest starts as you park outside the rustic old red barn theater. A half dozen "ghosts," dressed in 1920s costumes, greet theatergoers in a dread-filled, zombie-ish way, heads bobbing and eyes opening and closing slowly. Inside, the theater has been turned into Glencliff Manor, that resembles every black and white manor house you ever saw in chilling movies.

I've had it with watching this downward dither passively, and so it's time for me to get active and take advantage of it. For real.
IF this stock gets down to $1.01/share, then I am buying 10,000 more shares of it. No fear here.
Go ahead and slowly bring it down to that level, and when you see that 10,000 shares "all or none" order that is in at BID $1.01/share... You guessed it. That's me.
Sentiment: Strong Buy
I think it will get to 1.01 in 5-10 days. They just let it grind down, now we are again testing 1.10. It's only a matter of time because the volume is so low that 1.10 breaks.
Fine with me. Bring it on. $$$$$$$$$$
I usually agree with you askwhy, but everytime the stock gets to 1.10 the last few weeks they load up on the bid size. Till that changes it looks like that is the line of support. We shall see.
"...when you see that 10,000 shares "all or none" order that is in at BID $1.01/share..."
It's been my experience that an all or none bid, or ask, is rarely if ever shown on the screen even when it's high bid or low ask. That's coming off my own personal bids and asks at the all or none level, whenever i make a aon higher bid or lower than is being shown on screen. From what i understand it doesn't have to be, only the high bid and low ask at the single round lot level have to be shown. Level 2 when i used to use it, i don't remember the type order being shown, only the quantity and mm involved. Been years since i used level 2 though, found it simpler to look at bid and ask quantities at the current low bid/high ask level. Of course, i could be wrong on all that. Whatever. Good luck whichever way it goes for you.
OTC mkts are most manipulated one. You will see bid for 100 shares and if you sell 100 K also, it will take it.
If you think the stock is a multi-bagger it is 1.01 and 1.11 do not matter. The potential is too big to miss.
Takeda will not absolve any responsibility for the fatalities, since there are too many variables from Old age to multiple drug prescription for each patients.
AMGN's EPOGEN and ARSNEP's are not the safest ones, they are the biggest killers, that is why constantly FDA issued adversary recommendations.
FMS earnings should be watched carefully. FMS can't make money with the cost of EPO and Arsneps, it is not only the cost of the Drug but the labor intensive thrice weekly dosages, 12-15 times a month against Once per month,
Even though AMGN reduced the prices for these folks, it was temperory to keep Omontys away from the market place. AMGN can't continue for ever, it is selling below cost to keep the competitors away.
O is a win win, what spooked Takeda is FMS's reluctance to extend the pilot program further. FMS probably learnt a lesson and they will be more than accepting the drug and agree to rollout nationwide.
It is going to be very interesting to watch! Definitely in my opinion the DRUG is coming back, with a Bang!

It just blows my mind how little we know about our bodies and how to keep them healthy. Most people I talk to aren't happy with the state of their bodies. They either feel like they're too fat, or too skinny, or some other complex. And it's not just feelings -- many people, especially on the Western diet, are too fat. And in fact, are clinically obese but don't know it. That described me for a decade. I was literally on the verge of metabolic syndrome and didn't even know it. That's incredible: I was putting my self at double the risk of coronary disease, diabetes and a slew of other diseases and I didn't even realize it. I see that same benign neglect of the body in most people around me. There's a general dissatisfaction of their bodies, but very little action taken to improve it, and I think it's because most people are a combination of confused as to what the best path forward is, and reluctant to make big changes without being sure they're making the right ones.
So while I don't necessarily have answers, I can offer a plan to help you begin your journey to figure it out, and the good news is, it's a very simple plan and so easy to follow that I guarantee this will work for you like it has for me. (Or "Your money back!" so to speak) You just have to decide you want to try. Here it is, step by step.
Step 1 in DROdio's "Achieve Your Body Goals" Plan: Adjust Your Attitude (Seriously.)
The very first thing you have to do is decide to take control of your body's fate, and not to let yourself feel like a victim. You are not a passenger along for the ride. You are driving. You have to believe that you impact the outcome with your actions, because you can, and you will. I have. For over a decade I felt like a helpless passenger. As my metabolism slowed down, I'd continue to put on the pounds and couldn't figure out how to stop it. I started hating the scale; hating that I was becoming someone other than who I knew I really was. It wasn't until I took this first step that I was able to take control. You have to really want to do this.
When I turned 39 last year, I knew I was in trouble, and although I hadn't recognized quite how bad my health had gotten, I knew enough to realize I had to do something about it. On my 39th birthday I vowed that by 40, I would be back in the kind of shape I had been in a decade earlier, when I'd turned 30.
Today is my 40th birthday, and I've not only hit that goal, but surpassed it. I might be in the best shape I've ever been in. I'm in much better shape that I was when I turned 30. Possibly even better shape than I was when I turned 20, back in 1995. In this blog post I'm going to share how I did what I never thought I'd be able to do: Take control of my body and health for the first time in my life, which would require me to overcome my genetic predispositions and a tortured relationship with food.
The formula is equal parts motivation + relationship w/ food + relationship w/ exercise. So let's break it down in that way:
I'm about to take you down a deep rabbit hole, on a path that will challenge what you believe about nutrition and health. This is a journey of experimentation, and I encourage you to keep a very open mind, and in fact, I hope you decide to experiment with these themes yourself. I'm not a nutritionist or doctor, but I am very passionate about finding ways to optimize my body and health (especially as I age), which is why I've been doing intermittent fasting for the past five months -- and that experience has been life changing. I've gone from XL to medium sized shirts, from a 38 to 32 waist, and most importantly, from 34.7% body fat to 24.5% (and my goal is to get under 20%). Intermittent Fasting has put me in control of my body for the first time in my life.
And just when I felt that I was really starting to figure it all out, this rabbit hole opened up. And it's called ketosis.
In addition to intermittent fasting, I'm experimenting with ketosis through the end of 2015, which is triggered by eating a ketogenic diet comprised of 75% fat, 20% protein and 5% carbs. Yes, that's right -- in order to lose fat and become healthier, I'm going to eat mostly fat. The mind blowing counter-intuitiveness of that statement is why I'm writing this blog.
But before we can talk about this ketogenic approach to nutrition and health, we have to understand how the body uses two energy sources -- glucose and ketones -- and why, with your diet, you are probably only ever tapping into glucose (and how that may be making you unhealthier, especially as you age).
I wrote this post in August 2014 comparing Betterment to Wealthfront, so it's been about 15 months, and I thought it'd be a good time to check in on relative performance, as a buddy of mine recently wrote:
"I saw your post on betterment. I'm thinking of moving everything over to a roboinvestor. What's your thinking on betterment vs wealthfront, and whether you'd just dump everything on there?"
As I wrote in my original post, I put $5k into both Betterment and Wealthfrontto test them against each other. To date, both have under-performed the S&P 500 by a considerable margin. S&P is up 10% since August 2014. Betterment is down by 2% and Wealthfront is down by 5.4%. So, should I just have invested in the S&P 500? And as per my other previous blog, Show Me The Money: Six Strategies to Put Your Cash to Work, how should I re-allocate based on this new data? And what would I recommend to my buddy? Let's dig into the data a bit to come to a conclusion:
When I wrote my orginal post Show Me The Money: Six Strategies to Put Your Cash to Work, one of the strategies I included was leveraging General Electric's high-yield money market account for the cash you want to keep readily available (i.e., cash you might need to access in the next 3 to 12 months). But GE has shut that program down as an overall strategy shift away from its GE Capital business, and so I was left searching for an alternative. In this post I'll detail what corporate money market accounts are, how they work, how they differ from other types of savings or income generating accounts, and which the best alternative is. I'll also tell you what I ultimately ended up deciding to do, which was different than I expected.
Why you should care about this at all:
One of the mistakes I made in my 20s was not being curious enough about financial instruments, and how I could leverage them to reach my personal goals faster. I was so focused on building startups that I didn't pay enough attention to how to optimize my investments. I set out to change that in my 30s, and I've been blogging about it in the hopes that anyone else who isn't yet leveraging these tools can learn about and use them.
As with anything in life, from optimizing your health to optimizing your finances, you have to start with a goal. My family's financial goal is currently optimized for asset growth, with a secondary focus of passive income generation. Since we're still (relatively) young, we're willing to take aggressive stances on both. Here's how this breaks down for us:
It's been 13 weeks since I wrote the in-depth post on my fasting experiment (read that first if you haven't already), which I originally only expected to try for 8 weeks. But the results have been so life changing that I've decided to continue doing it through at least the end of the year, and possibly indefinitely. Here's what I've learned and experienced over the past couple of months, along with the pro-tips I recommend for others interested in trying it themselves, and answers to the questions I get most often.
The main thing I've learned in the past couple of months is that fasting is deeply misunderstood by people, including the reasons for doing it, the science and nutrition behind it, the actual experience of fasting, how it makes you feel, and how best to be supportive of someone in your life who's giving it a try. Fasting just isn't mainstream enough to make sense to people, and they often immediately respond with "I could never do that" (which is how I used to also feel before really diving into it).
From my fasting experience I've also become convinced that the obesity epidemic in America can be solved by integrating fasting elements into our culture. I don't know if fasting will ever reach that level of cultural prominance, but I do now know with certainty that there's a solution out there that works, and although fasting is a very individual thing, I'm convinced that it could be codified into an approach that could work for anyone. This also means that if you are unhappy with your current level of health, fasting is something you can do to fix it. It may not be the only thing you can do, but from experience I can tell you that it is absolutely an approach that will work. If you're serious about trying to become healthy, fasting will work.
Elon Musk did a fireside chat (why is the fire always missing from these fireside chats?) with Steve Jurvitson of DFJ at Stanford this morning to celebrate an event called FutureFest. In the movie Back to the Future, Marty McFly went 30 years into the future to October 2015. Now that we're 30 years into that future, how does it compare to how people thought it would look? Steve also grilled Elon on what he thought the world would look like 30 years from now (except he made it 20 years to account for the increasing speed of change).
Since there was a long queue of Stanford students waiting outside to hear Elon who weren't able to get in due to space restrictions, I captured the talk on my phone. The audio's pretty poor, but if you wear headphones you can make their conversation out reasonably well.
Here's the video. And below that are some of the things Elon covered, which include:
Just a quick post to share a decision making pro-tip that I shared with a few people this week.
Anytime I need to consider a number of criteria to make a decision on something, I try to suss out what my needs are vs. my wants. (This is a framework my wife and I have been using in our personal & professional decision making for years.)
It sounds so obvious, right? But specifically writing it out brings clarity to a decision, especially when multiple people are involved.
Jazz Tigan, an insanely talented artist, is the lead designer of the 2015 Burning Man Temple of Promise.
Burning Man is a festival in the desert that's often misunderstood by those who have never been. It's not just a party, rather, it's a place to experience yourself as you truly want to be. A place without judgement. A place with incredible art and creativity. It's a place to refresh your soul and to re-evaluate your life's priorities.
The Temple sits at the center of it all. If the Man at Burning Man is the body of the event, the Temple is its soul. So when it turned out that the guy who dreamt up this year's Temple design was someone I went to school with, I had to go check out the build site, which is located in Alamedia, CA (just across the bridge from San Francisco) until mid August, when they'll ship everything out to Black Rock Desert to finish the Temple on-site.
Jazz has a special, secret project that he's looking to fund in addition to the main Temple build. He needs $5k to successfully finish this secret project. Think of it as the icing on the cake. If you're interested in donating any amount to make it happen, message Jazz on Facebook and let him know. Sue and I just donated to support it. Also, if you'd like to volunteer to help build the Temple between now & mid August, just let Jazz know. They're on-site in Alameda every day for the next 2 weeks.
I'm turning 40 this December, and that's caused me to deeply re-evaluate my health. In high school I had wrestled at the 152 lb weight level and was a gymnast. In my 20s, I ran two 50 mile ultra-marathons and a half dozen marathons. I had a 33 inch waist and weighed 185 lbs. I could eat whatever I wanted and stay in good shape. But after a decade of doing startups, I found myself in my late 30s in much worse shape. My metabolism hit a wall when I turned 30, and although I didn't eat terribly, I also found it hard to figure out exactly how to get back to where I was in my 20s. My waist was 38 inches and I weighed 245 lbs; 93 lbs over my wrestling weight. My triglycerides were 33% above where they should've been. I'd imagine this happens to many of us as we get older, and I felt helpless as I watched all of this unfold, almost like it was happening according to some script that I wasn't in control of. Most of all, I was really disappointed in myself for not staying on top of my health, but I couldn't find the right balance of eating and exercising to change the path I was on. It felt like I was on a slow motion slippery slope as I got older and more out of shape.
When my daughter was born in 2013, I made myself a promise: I would be in as good of shape when I turned 40 as I was when I turned 30. I didn't want to have a hard time keeping up with her as she grew up. I started doing CrossFit twice a week that year. I signed up and completed a few triathlons. But my weight still wouldn't budge from 245 lbs, and my triglycerides, although lower, were still 15% above the max recommended range. CrossFit was making me much stronger, but that was only part of the puzzle. I had to figure out the rest, and I hadn't quite cracked it.
In December of last year, I realized I was running short on time: I'd really have to hump it to get back in shape within the next year, before my 40th birthday in December 2015. By this time I had upped my CrossFit schedule to 3x per week and I started rowing for 15 minutes before CrossFit started in the mornings. But that still wasn't enough: By April I knew I was going to have to take some much more drastic measures to reach my goal.
This blog is a story of those drastic measures, and how they're going. It's a deep-dive into the rabbit hole that we call 'health' as I see it. It's a journey that I invite you to take with me as we all get older, together. I am only starting to unlock some of the things that affect my body and I would love your thoughts and opinions as well in the comments below.
Let me also caveat this entire blog by saying that some of what I write about below is contrary to the things we've been told to believe, and I fully recognize that. I'm not a medical expert and I'm not telling you to throw away what you believe to be true. But just walk into all of this with an open mind, as I'm trying to do, and more importantly, be willing to try some of these things yourself if you also want to experiment a bit to try to find a better path than you've found so far.

Southern Serves The South 2 by markkarvonWatch
©2009-2016 markkarvon
This is actually the original version of the Ps-4. The other version I posted here: [link]
This one was done for a client under commission. Now that it's been released I think it's ok for me to post it. I like this version better with the trestle.

belicima locomotiva !!!
Love the trestle. Excellent.
looks great
Gorgeous engine! Solid shot!
It is a gorgeous engine for sure. It's not a shot but a painting. Solid 3/4 frontal view for a commercial client.
Beautiful... That's all I can say. A beautiful sight...
Beautifully incredible!
The old locomotives are most beutiful. A great painting.
Love the colouring. It almost looks like a photo, it's so amazing. <3
Thanks; I am happy you like it. The Southern was known for that striking green color.
I had to look at my telephone to see if the engine number was the same it's 1396. Your work is amazing, it looks as though the engine is going to bust right out of the screen
Love how you did the smoke and how it contrasts with the sharpness of the rest of picture.
Agreed, the trestle is better.
Well done Mark.... I've been spending so much time watching UK steam postings lately I forgot the US had engines that weren't all black.
Love that steam power!
Awesome work, Mark.
I think it Looks Better with the Trestle... till is a Beautiful Locomotive though...
The level of detail is truely amazing.
curiously i'm no fan of engines, but my grandfather does...
There is always something magical about big steam engines.
The bridge does really add to it.
Can't say which one's better. You know my uncle loves the ol' Iron Horses so I shown him yours. He just stayed astonished and couldn't stop watching them
I like your trains. Anyway to have a Union Pacific Big Boy or something up??
Either way, she sure is a beauty! I feel like I'm looking at a photograph instead of a picture!
And are those N&W cars behind her?

Acer Aspire S7-191
Average of 2 scores (from 8 reviews)
Reviews for the Acer Aspire S7-191
Source: Mobile Tech Review
The Acer Aspire S7 11.6" is easy on the eyes both in terms of visual appeal and the sharp IPS full HD display. It looks and feels like a luxury notebook, with a hint of James Bond since it's so small and sleek. We love the EL backlighting on the keyboard, though we never quite adjusted to the jarring feel of the keys' short travel.
Single Review, online available, Medium, Date: 04/23/2013
Rating: Total score: 80%
Source: Techtree.com
The Acer Aspire S7-191 is one of the first Windows 8 UltraBooks with a touchscreen, and Full HD at that. The screen is stunning in terms of appearance as well as usability. Acer gets full marks for the sculpted aluminium casing. The performance is top-notch, as you'd expect from a Core i7-powered laptop. The touchscreen takes full advantage of Windows 8's UI. The snappy performance also derives from the two SSDs configured in striped RAID. Multimedia performance is great, with the 1080p IPS screen and loud, distortion-free speakers. Battery life is a negative point; you will probably always have to carry the additional battery along.

If Acer's previous flagship Aspire S5 Ultrabook was a bit of a disappointment, the S7 more than makes up for it. Sporting glorious Full HD, touch-enabled IPS screens, super-slim profiles, original and striking designs, and even optional battery slices, these Ultrabooks appear to be truly worthy of their flagship status. We can't wait to get them in for a full review.

Intel HD Graphics 4000: Processor graphics card in the high end Ivy Bridge models. Offers a different clock speed in the different CPU models (ULV to desktop quad core) and therefore a different performance.
Non demanding games should be playable with these graphics cards.
» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Graphics Cards and the corresponding Benchmark List.
Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.
3517U: Fast Ivy-Bridge-based ULV-CPU in Q2 2012. Offers a core clock of 1.9 - 3.0 GHz and an HD 4000 GPU (350 - 1150 MHz). The TDP is rated at 17 W.» Further information can be found in our Comparison of Mobile Processsors.

CVC Capital Partners has quietly dropped plans to hire an independent chairman for its scandal-hit motor racing company Formula One.
The private equity firm sounded out the former Marks & Spencer boss Sir Stuart Rose for the job in January in what was widely interpreted as an attempt to shore up the reputation of F1, which is at the centre of a corruption investigation in Germany.
The Times has learnt that the CVC founder Donald McKenzie decided to drop the plan several weeks ago. The veteran F1 chief executive Bernie Ecclestone was strongly opposed to the plan, saying publicly that

À propos
Chooda is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization with a vision of personal transformation and global social change.
The mission is to create transformative experiences for its participants while providing much needed resources abroad. We create international adventure experiences where participants challenge themselves while having the opportunity to engage with communities for whom they have raised money and awareness.
Inspired in equal parts by the Peace Corps, California AIDS/LifeCycle, and Burning Man, Bike Zambia is a seven-day, 400-mile charitable bicycle ride to raise awareness of poverty and HIV/AIDS in Africa. The ride has raised $270K and provided grants to make a difference for local communities across Zambia. The mission of the event is to ride bicycles to empower, sustain, and enrich communities.
About the Ride to Raise Awareness of Poverty and AIDS in Africa
Bike Zambia is a week-long, 409-mile bike ride that takes place in June. It's a ride fit for all levels of cycling abilities (Everyone is expected to train and prepare sufficiently to ensure the safety of themselves and other participants of the ride). The ride is roughly 60 miles per day along the diverse route on-road and off-road from Lusaka to Livingstone, where we finish at Victoria Falls. We'd like the group to grow as we go, as locals take part in our traveling community.
The planning of the ride is currently underway, so some of the final details have yet to be determined. Here is what we know so far:
- The ride takes place in late June. Dates are available on our website. We will conduct a mandatory orientation session in Lusaka before starting the ride.
- Temperatures in late June range from 45-77 degrees Fahrenheit, and rain is not an issue.
- We are expecting 15-30 riders to join us in this effort.
- The money we raise will be donated to local grassroots organizations working with HIV/AIDS, poverty, vulnerable children, and bicycle empowerment.
- We are eagerly seeking road volunteers as well as riders. For efficiency and democracy, we expect that all riders will be required to serve as road volunteers for a day on the ride.
- We are currently soliciting financial and equipment sponsors to help us in our endeavor.
- All riders will be required to submit a non-refundable registration fee which will help us fund the ride.

I've ALWAYS been a HUGE Osi supporter.
You will never find me saying I wanted him gone, ever.

I am highly critical of other fans. I speak my mind

A new standard by the EMerge Alliance creates an integrated platform for power distribution architecture in data centers.
The EMerge Alliance – an open industry association leading the rapid adoption of safe direct-current (DC) power distribution standards for commercial buildings – recently announced the completion of the EMerge Alliance Data/Telecom Center Standard.
The EMerge Alliance Data/Telecom Standard creates an integrated, open platform for power, infrastructure, peripheral devices, and control applications to facilitate the hybrid use of AC and DC power within data centers and telecommunications central offices.
This change in power distribution architecture involves making a single conversion of the incoming line of AC voltage to 380VDC and distributing it directly to rack-mounted ICT equipment, simplifying the otherwise unnecessarily complex power management provisions generally used in today's AC-powered data centers.
Using DC power distribution in data centers significantly improves reliability and reduces equipment and operating costs, according to Dennis Symanski, senior project manager at the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) and chair of the Alliance's technical standard committee for data and telecommunications centers.
"The benefits are clear. By requiring fewer components and conversions than their AC counterparts, DC power systems in data centers suffer fewer heat related failures and require less space, energy, and maintenance to operate," said Symanski. "DC power collection and distribution systems also simplify the use of locally generated power, providing an effective integration of on-site energy generation and storage with direct delivery of controlled power."
