Below are 9 stocks where the CEO has bought company stock in the past week. Each of these purchases are of a significant enough size to attract attention in the market and two, in my opinion, are particularly noteworthy. Chesapeake Energy (NYSE:CHK) CEO Aubrey McClendon almost went broke when he owned stock on margin in 2008. He's back this week with a major purchase. In addition, new Sears (NASDAQ:SHLD) CEO Lou D'Ambrosio ponied up $1 million for company shares last week.
Here are the 9 stocks from the past week with CEO buys of at least $100,000:
Chesapeake Midstream Partners (CHKM): This company was formed last year from Chesapeake Energy and Global Infrastructure Partners as a Master Limited Partnership (MLP). CHKM operates pipelines and is 84% owned by the two companies above. If you're interested in learning more, there was a good article written recently entitled Chespeake Midstream: Problems with Potential. CHKM obviously is heavily dependent on Chesepeake Energy. CEO Michael Stice bought $100,000 worth of shares on March 7 and now owns more than 12,000 shares.
Chesapeake Energy (CHK): Joining Stice in his bullishness was CEO Aubrey McClendon. He bought nearly $500,000 of company stock on the open market on March 8. CHK's board has been under pressure for giving huge bonuses and options to McClendon since a margin call in 2008 wiped him out. You may remember that they even purchased his vintage maps. Carl Icahn's recent stock purchases seem to be sobering CHK up a bit. Let's just hope that McClendon didn't use leverage for this purchase.
Western Asset Emerging Markets Income Fund II (NYSE:EDF): EDF is a closed end fund focusing on emerging markets. CEO Peter Wilby bought 5,000 shares on March 8 totaling about $120,000.
The Bancorp (NASDAQ:TBBK): This cleverly named bank held a public offering on March 2 and raised $50 million. CEO Betsy Cohen participated in the offering by purchasing 97,500 shares, totaling about $804,000. The Bancorp serves small and medium size businesses in the Philadelphia and Wilmington, DE area.
Western Gas Partners, LP (NYSE:WES): Western Gas Partners is an MLP formed by Anadarko Petroleum. They priced a public offering at $35.15 on March 1 and CEO Donald Sinclair participated by purchasing 11,380 shares. The proceeds are being used to pay down a line of credit. Their dividend yield is currently 4.4%.
Cenevo (NYSE:CVO): CEO Robert Burton purchased $387,000 worth of shares on March 4. He currently owns almost 5% of the company. Cenevo makes envelopes, forms, and labels, and does commercial printing. The company recently announced a quarterly loss of $0.16 and made two acquisitions last quarter, including buying the envelopes products group from MeadWestvaco.
China TransInfo Technology (NASDAQ:CTFO): After making two recent purchases, CEO Xia Shudong made another purchase on March 3. This time he bought about $104,000 worth of shares. I discussed his purchases last week. CTFO is a Chinese technology company that focuses on transportation planning, toll collection, taxi monitoring and other related applications.
CleanTech Innovations (OTCQB:CTEK): CleanTech is another stock I mentioned last week. CEO Lu Bei bought $240,000 of shares on March 3 after also buying $240,000 of shares on March 1. He owns more than 50% of the outstanding shares.
Sears Holdings (SHLD): Eddie Lampert released the company's annual letter two weeks ago and announced that Lou D'Ambrosio would be taking over as CEO. D'Ambrosio immediately purchased about $1 million worth of stock. Previous CEO Bruce Johnson had served as the interim CEO for three years. Sears' stock ran up above $120 per share in May last year, but recently has traded in the $85 range. It has been incredibly volatile through the years, but apparently D'Ambrosio feels comfortable making this substantial investment now.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Got the charcoal daily and it's great, as always! I have several daily beanies and I love them all. Super soft, perfect fit. Great for the office or out on the mountains!
I have almost every color.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
These beanies do stretch out, but just throw them in the washer and drier and they'll tighten back up. I wear mine constantly during the winter season as they can turn cover your bedhead with a stylin accesory! Great gift , especially if you don't want to break the bank.
Awesome Hat
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
It's a great beanie for men and women, I got one for myself and my brother's girlfriend and both of us wear them alllll the time. They are perfect for chillier days or days when you just don't feel like getting rid of your bedhead.
Kid Tested, Mother Approved!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
I bought this for my son to wear skiing. I needed something that wasn't too thick so he wouldn't get too sweaty with a beanie and a helmet on. This is perfect! Great quality and my son can wear it around town as well. My only complaint is that I purchased the green color, expecting it to be the light green and it is much darker, more like a forest green. Luckily the kid still liked it!
Perfect gift for your loved one!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
- Size Bought: One Size.
Bought my girlfriend that black one as a gift for Christmas and she hasn't taking it off since! She loved it. I have also bought myself the white one and it fits perfectly and love the color!
Perfect mid-weight beanie...

Looking forward to cold weather
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
- Fit: True to size
I had heard good things about Neff hats and I grabbed one on sale. It's very soft and feels quite warm. I am looking forward to getting a lot of use out it.
Daily Beanie it is!
Have bought a lot of hats in my day and none are as comfortable as neff. Lightweight but warm on cold nights, and easy to style whether normal or slouchy.. Have a grey striped and teal one. Love them!!
Favorite beanies!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
- Fit: True to size
These beanies are super comfortable and come in all sorts of colors to match any outfit your closet can throw your way. I have noticed that after a few times wearing them, they do stretch out a bit. All you have to do to combat this, is to throw them in your load of laundry and once out of the dryer, it is good as new
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
This beanie is very comfortable and fits over my big head, which is always a plus! The material is very soft and seemingly durable!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
- Fit: True to size
Love Neff beanies. Great fit with tons of comfort. Trying to get some more of these in different colors.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought this brand new from DF, but when I got it, it smelled like WET DOG!!! WTF not trying to be funny, it had a foul odor. It wasn't worth it for me to ship it back so I threw it into the washer.
The Best
- Familiarity: I gave it as a gift but have feedback to share
These are the best beanies made. Both of my son's won't wear any other except Neff. Dogfunk got my order shipped to my home in time for Christmas I will shop here again. Thanks Dogfunk
not bad but not great
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Great fit, look good, comfortable, warm...everything you could ask for in a beanie...BUT the stretch out fairly quickly and don't go back to their original shape. one of these only lasts me MAYBE 3 weeks of continuous wear. Who knows, maybe I have a big melon, but it still shouldn't wear out that quick.
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Looks dopalicious and it's functional. Love this thing.
Gets The Job Done
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Nice simple beanie. Not too big, not too small. Super perfect for putting under a snow helmet. The material does ball up after a while. All in all, good for the price.
Nice beanie very bright and warm
highly recommend!
Cheap price, classic fit...what's not to love? I'll be honest, I bought it in purple, red and grey because I couldn't decide and I'm in love with all three. I have a bigger head so finding beanies that fit without having to do a bunch of stretching is rare!
Coal beanies are where it's at!
Awesome beanie - seems to fit a variety of different sizes heads. I bought a few of these for some Christmas gifts and everyone seemed to love 'em, including myself. Awesome choices of assorted colors - definitely recommend purchasing.
would a light blue dailey gaiter look...
would a light blue dailey gaiter look alright with a grey beanie, if not what would? :D
Sounds swaggy bro. You should definitely do that combo.

Devices Linking Us to Our Inner World Are Next Tech Frontier
Greetings from Las Vegas, where I've landed in the midst of a perfect storm. I'm not talking about the weather -- it's a crisp, beautiful day here. No, I'm talking about one of those moments in which several trends converge to create something larger, a moment we will look back on as the time everything changed.
I'm in town for the annual Consumer Electronics Show, where 3,000 exhibitors from around the world will showcase some 20,000 new products. This year's CES has the potential to be one of the most transformative ever, and that's because of a significant change in attitude about what role technology can, and should, be playing in our lives. That's the foundation of this perfect storm, the main elements of which are new and disruptive technology, our dysfunctional health-care system and the growing desire people have to take control of their own health and well being.
Previewing this year's event, PCWorld said it expects "the march toward total connectivity to continue," pointing to devices that contribute to the "smart home" and offer the ability to control our surroundings -- from the way we watch TV to the way we raise the thermostat -- with gadgets that are connected to and communicate with each other.
But the perfect storm I'm talking about goes one step further: from the smartphone to the smart home to the smart person. For me, the most exciting emerging technologies aren't devices that allow us to communicate with and control our external world, but those that allow us to connect to our inner world, the ones that connect our mind, body and spirit. That's the real potential of total connectivity.
Why is this important? Because this perfect storm is powered by our growing awareness of the destructive power and cost -- in terms of both dollars and lives -- of stress. Stress wreaks havoc not just on our relationships, our careers and our happiness, but also on our health. On the collective level, the price we're paying is staggering -- stress costs American businesses an estimated $300 billion a year, according the World Health Organization. And over the last 30 years, self-reported stress levels have gone up 25 percent for men and 18 percent for women.
If we continue to define our health care system as only being about what happens after we're already sick -- if we don't address the root causes of much of what's making us sick -- we'll never be able to keep up with skyrocketing costs. The easier, healthier and cheaper way to treat stress is to deal with its causes instead of its effects. The good news is that we know how to effectively do this: practices like mindfulness, meditation, yoga and healthy sleep habits have proved extremely successful in combating stress.
Plus, new high-tech tools are making it possible for individuals to take more and more control of their own health. The first wave of connecting technology hyperconnected us to the entire world -- but, in the process, often disconnected us from ourselves. That's why I'm so excited about the new wave of technology that reconnects us to ourselves. For example, a robust market of wearable devices -- like the Nike Plus FuelBand, Jawbone UP, FitBit and Lark -- has emerged, monitoring everything from activity and food intake to weight and sleep.
This week, HuffPost is entering this connected-self market, rolling out at CES our GPS for the Soul, a new app that's part of our comprehensive site-wide lifestyle coverage centered around the theme "Less Stress, More Living." When I wrote about GPS for the Soul last year -- the "killer app for better living" -- I explained that it had started as a hope that one day someone would create an app that would gauge the state of your mind, body and spirit, then automatically offer the exact steps you would need to take to realign all three aspects of your being.
The GPS for the Soul app is designed to work in conjunction with the GPS for the Soul section on the Huffington Post, HuffPost's new stress-reduction daily email newsletter and GPS for the Soul online services provided by our partners, such as talktala and meQuilibrium. The app measures your heart rate and heart rate variability which, taken together, are a proxy for stress levels. The app then connects you to a personalized guide that offers music, poetry, breathing exercises and pictures of your loved ones that can help you re-center and de-stress. Or you can access the guides of stress-reduction experts, other users or your friends. Our GPS for the Soul sections will be a hub for great content by groups working in this field that will help our users not only increase their awareness of their stress and be able to course-correct, but also go deeper and identify the root causes.
So for me the most exciting takeaway from this year's CES isn't the smart car or the smart home, it's the smart person -- the reconnection of mind, body and spirit. It's the best way for each of us to regain control of our health, and for our country to regain control of our death-spiraling health care system.
So here's hoping the perfect storm on display this week at CES leads to sunnier days everywhere.

All Groovy, No GroovePosted by: | Comments
"This is pretty funny. When people ask me if I am a drummer, I usually like to say "I play drums"; not out of any false modesty, but because I know MANY skilled drummers who have a better claim to that title than I do. But one thing I don't do is look to the drums for some kind of emotional outlet, or to engage in a mass spiritual vibe. The drums are one more tool for me to express my creativity, not a social lubricant. Owning a drum doesn't make one a drummer. Asheville, I'm looking at you."
It was too good not to share, at least in part, one drummer's experience with drum circles:
Many years ago, I accepted a few of these invitations, thinking I would be immersed in a collective of fairly knowledgeable drummers with decent time feel and a reasonable amount of self-control. Instead, I was (at one drum circle, at least) asked to join hands in prayer before the circle (kill me, please) and then was thrown into a maelstrom of flailing hippie craziness. They leapt about, like looney forest sprites, randomly striking hand drums and shaking rain sticks.
They swayed and chanted. They crescendoed independently, and everyone soloed – the entire time.
For an actual drummer to gain a rhythmic foothold in this madness was beyond possibility. For one to engage in the exchange, one must surrender control and succumb to the Bubble, which I guess is the true yogic approach. But I just couldn't. Every time I tried to surrender, my drummer brain would kick in, and I would try in vain to lock down some semblance of a groove. Logic, counting, time – it was all irrelevant, replaced by Neanderthalic bombast. We sacrificed the One in the name of Oneness.
There's more. Enjoy.

No Truth In Pravda EitherPosted by: | Comments
At Crooks and Liars, Heather writes:
I was wondering when Jon Stewart was finally going to get around to responding to Megyn Kelly's comments following the news that he was going to be leaving The Daily Show that he "hasn't been a force for good" and that "in his later years he got a little nasty," and Rich Lowry whining that Stewart was mean to those poor picked on, downtrodden conservatives.
And Fox News, media organ for the right? Well, one could say about Fox News,
As the names of the main Communist newspaper and the main Soviet newspaper, Pravda and Izvestia, meant "the truth" and "the news" respectively, a popular Russian saying was "v Pravde net izvestiy, v Izvestiyakh net pravdy" (In the Truth there is no news, and in [Fox News] there is no truth).
Perhaps Stewart's critiques sound false to them because they've lost the ability to hear themselves. So says Politifact:
Fox News promotes the most false information among TV news outlets, according to a fact-checking watchdog – and the problem is only getting worse.
Politifact regularly examines claims made on air by pundits, hosts, or paid contributors and rates those statements by accuracy.
The latest scorecard showed more than 60 percent of the claims made on Fox News were mostly false or worse – and half of all claims were either demonstrably false or outright lies.
The result of a "chronically angry war for ideological purity," as Stewart said.
Veni, vidi, vaya con DiosPosted by: | Comments
It seems a bright eighth grader in Vermont thought it would be a good idea for the state to adopt a Latin motto. So Republican state Sen. Joe Benning introduced legislation recommending Stella quarta decima fulgeat ("May the fourteenth star shine bright"). The phrase harkens back to when Vermont entered the union as the 14th state.
Wonkette has what happened next:
And then Burlington TV station WCAX put the story on its Facebook page with the headline, "Should Vermont have an official Latin motto?" and all Stupid broke loose when morons thought that Vermont was knuckling under to a bunch of goddamned illegal immigrants.
An email from Benning to the Vermont Political Observer captured the irony:
I anticipated suffering the backroom internal joking from my colleagues in the legislature. What I did not anticipate was the vitriolic verbal assault from those who don't know the difference between the Classics and illegal immigrants from South America.
A couple of samples:
"I thought Vermont was American not Latin? Does any Latin places have American mottos?"
"ABSOLUTLY NOT!!!! sick and tired of that crap, they have their own countries"
"How do you say idiotic senator in spanish? I'd settle for deport illegals in spanish as a back up motto"
"Hell No! This is America, not Latin America. When in Rome do as the Romans do!"
Later commenters jumped in to lampoon the earlier posts, of course. Wonkette and the Vermont Political Observer have more.
Quod erat demonstrandum.

Losing our collective nervePosted by: | Comments
Besides suffering Ronald Reagan in the 1980s, the decade saw (IIRC) parents bringing the kiddies to the mall on Saturday to be photographed and fingerprinted. Maybe bringing dental impressions to help identify their bodies. We called these "child safe" programs. In the 1950s, it was commies hiding in the woodpile. By the 1980s, it was child abducters hiding behind every tree. Heaven forfend that little Johnny or Janie should walk or ride a bike to school or to the playground without a hypervigilant parent for a bodyguard. Well, somebody is finally trying to beak the spell:
On a recent Saturday afternoon, a 10-year old Maryland boy named Rafi and his 6-year old sister, Dvora, walked home by themselves from a playground about a mile away from their suburban house. They made it about halfway home when the police picked them up. You've heard these stories before, about what happens when kids in paranoid, hyperprotective America go to and from playgrounds alone. I bet you can guess the sequence of events preceding and after: Someone saw the kids walking without an adult and called the police. The police tracked down the kids and drove them home. The hitch this time is, when the police got there, they discovered that they were meddling with the wrong family.

Sanford Ltd. files "bill of particulars" motion
New Zealand based Sanford Limited, whose fishing vessel was detained in Pago Pago last year for alleged pollution violation, has asked the federal court in Washington D.C. to order the U.S. government to provide specific details of the charges against the company.
The request, made through a "bill of particulars" motion, seeks to clarify the federal indictment handed down Dec. 6 by a federal grand jury in Washington D.C., charging Sanford with violating the Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships (APPS), conspiracy and obstruction of justice.
Prosecutors allege a criminal conspiracy to violate the APPS on the San Nikunau, through the improper discharge of bilge waste, the failure to record these alleged discharges in the vessel's oil record book and the allegedly fraudulent recording of the use of the vessel's pollution control equipment in the oil record book when said equipment was allegedly not, in fact, used, said Sanford's attorneys.
Sanford says the bill of particulars is required as the indictment fails to identify with sufficient particularity the nature of the charges pending against Sanford, thereby preventing Sanford from preparing for the hearing on depositions of material witnesses, which have been ordered to commence during the week of January 9, 2012, and to prepare for trial.
Furthermore, without a bill of particulars to clarify the vague allegations contained in the Indictment, the government will be able to improperly surprise Sanford by conforming its theory of the case to the evidence it presents at the depositions and at trial.
"The Indictment in alleging a far ranging conspiracy, over a period of nearly five years in a remote part of the world, fails to identify the alleged members of the conspiracy, which alleged members committed or were involved in each of the overt acts charged, and the exact time, date and location when each of these alleged overt acts occurred," the defense argued.
Sanford also said that it needs this bill of particulars when three material witnesses — Silverio Distor, Rhyme Distor and Donato Eulatic — are due to have their depositions taken starting next week.
According to the defense these former crew members of the San Nikunau "are currently detained to the District of Columbia, and have been detained at the request of the U.S. government since August 2011."
Sanford says it is required to participate in these depositions and cross-examine these witnesses. Additionally, the bill of particulars is needed prior to Jan. 20, when pre trial motions are to be filed with the federal court.
In closing Sanford says it needs the identities of all co-conspirators; the acts allegedly committed by these co-conspirators; the substance, time, place, and date of each alleged false statement or statement that obstructed a Coast Guard proceeding (including the participants in those statements); and, a particularization of all alleged false entries, omissions and directions given to crew members.
Sanford is hoping for prosecution to provide a bill of particulars before the end of this week.

Montréal's Symphonic Black Metal combo UNEXPECT were formed in 1996 when they were briefly known as UNEXPECTED. The founding duo of guitarist Artagoth and bassist Zircon would be joined later that year by guitarist Syriak and drummer Ben Gélinas. The arrival of the new recruits signalled the shortening of the band's moniker as well as a move away from their early Thrash Metal roots. Ben Gélinas was fired towards the end of 1997 due to personal differences and replaced by Lunorin.
The beginning of 1998 saw keyboard player Merzenya and violinist Le Bateleur added to the ranks to give more texture to the rapidly growing musical diversity of the band, and was further enhanced by the arrival of female vocalist Elda. With this line-up UNEXPECT entered the studio for the first time in the Summer of 1998 to record their debut album 'Utopia'. The self-financed offering would be released by the band independently the following year.
Guitarist Syriak took a break from UNEXPECT activities in 2000 to hook up with Montréal Melodic Black Metal outfit MAGISTER DIXIT as a keyboard player and duly appeared on the band's debut album 'Andar And The Curse of Azagath'.
In 2001 UNEXPECT encountered a major change in personnel as Elda, Merzenya and founding member Zircon all left the band. At this juncture Lunorin announced a change of name to ExoD and gave up the drum stool to became the band's new keyboard player. Zircon's bass duties were taken by ChaotH, whilst Leïlindel was named as the new vocalist. But it wasn't until 2003 that a permanent drummer was found in Landryx.
The revamped UNEXPECT would record the four song mini-album '_We, Invaders' with producer Yannick St-Amand, which saw a November 2003 release in North America though Canadian label Galy Records. Included would be a new version of 'In Velvet Coffins We Sleep', a song that first appeared on the band's 1999 debut 'Utopia' album.
In May of 2004 UNEXPECT signed a deal with Salt Lake City-based The End Records. July saw the band play the 'Northern Lights 2004' festival in Toronto, and another festival appearance, at the Trois-Rivières Metal Fest in November, concluded live activities for the year.
A new album, 'In A Flesh Aquarium', would be crafted at the Studio Hertzquake in Laval, Québec, with recordings taking place throughout much of 2005. The band would take time out to play a handful of Canadian live shows during the Summer, then in October UNEXPECT appeared at the 'Day Of The Equinox' festival in Toronto alongside label mates GREEN CARNATION, AGALLOCH and NOVEMBERS DOOM. The band partnered with AUGURY for Canadian touring in April 2006.

Although the Olympics are not a specific precursor to NBA success, doing well in such an international competition can give a player a boost that will help him during the coming NBA year.
Then again, some players will just be good no matter what.
Obviously the 2012 Dream Team's elite players are going to be on this list, but there are also plenty of international players that might get a bump from these London games. Making your country proud on such a big stage is a huge confidence booster, and some of these players needed that boost after the turns their NBA careers had taken recently.
These Olympians will have some of the best seasons of their NBA careers next season. For some of them, it is somewhat a result of the Olympics. Others would have had great seasons regardless, and others will have great seasons for different reasons.
Make no mistake about it, you can count on these players to perform in big ways next season.

So, not too long ago we put up a Japanese trailer for the upcoming Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li. Well, IGN has now provided us with a new English language trailer for the film. It should be noted that it is a different trailer than the previous Japanese version, but barring a few subtle editing differences, and the appearance of a previously unseen character, it is nearly identical. The primary revelation of note, is the appearance of the character Detective Maya Sunee played by Moon Bloodgood.

Christian Lacroix Is Ready for a Fight
He'll put on a couture show, and no one's going to stop him. Got it?
Christian Lacroix hasn't been paid in a year and a half. He's owed something like 1.2 million euros. And though his label has gone into bankruptcy (in debt 10 million euros), he's determined to put on a couture show.
"I'm fighting. Don't tell anyone, because I'm not allowed to do this, but we absolutely are going to have a show in mid-July, during Fashion Week — and it won't be a funeral: it'll be a fightback."
That's right, Lacroix is pissed and he's not going to take it anymore! The couturier is finding a way to show without it costing his parent company — Falic Group — a dime, apparently thanks to other people's kindness and suppliers working for free. (Did he take that big check from a couture client after all, then?) But beyond this leaner, meaner Lacroix — we admit, we like him this way — there's so much more we learn about the designer.
He loved the Ab Fab references.
"It was the best introduction I could have had in England," he says, "where you guys all think French designers are brainless frogs."
He fully supports Alexandra Shulman's battle against too-small clothes.
"Very skinny women don't look beautiful in clothes. What I cannot stomach, because it evokes the war to me, is when you can see a woman's kneecap protruding in its entirety, skinny elbows, or a woman's chest bones."
And onto his personal life: He is married.
"I've always been bisexual," he volunteers. "But I could never live with a man — too similar ... And my wife, whom I married in 1974, still fascinates me, still touches me, still makes me want to weep with joy in the mornings."
All of this just makes us hope he pulls off that couture show.

By JESSICA RHODES
For The Recorder
Hagaman resident Elaine Gasner may look like an ordinary woman, but she is actually a queen -- the Queen of TOPS New York for losing the most total weight of members statewide in 2012.
"It was all just through food and exercise," said Gasner, who lost the weight over a period of 29 years. "The main thing was the support, too, because anytime you lose weight they cheered you on."
"Recognition features very highly in our efforts to help our people continue in what we believe is a lifestyle change," explained Barbara Cady, TOPS president.
TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) is a nonprofit organization started in 1948 by a Milwaukee housewife.
Since then it has donated more than $8 million to obesity-related research and helped millions of people that struggle with the problem of obesity with support groups that encourage them to gradually change to a healthier lifestyle.
Weekly meetings help keep members accountable and allow them to share ideas about small, healthy changes they have made, according to Cady.
TOPS' average membership is 160,000 people, with 5,000 from New York state in almost 300 chapters.
Last year, the state members lost a total of 27,500 pounds.
"I think one of the things that really is most important is we focus on small changes through time and maintaining a healthy lifestyle," said Cady. "Most of the research indicates that if you're going to be successful with weight loss and maintenance you have to find something you're willing to do the rest of your life. And the Queen of New York is a perfect example of that because she has been a member 30 years, and gradually through time she kept developing small changes that enabled her to be successful in completing her weight loss journey."
Cady understands the struggle of weight loss the members face, because she went through it herself.
She joined TOPS when she was newly married.
"I wanted to have children. I was so overweight that I had had a series of miscarriages and my doctor had told me that if I wanted to have children I needed to lose down to a healthier weight. TOPS provided the vehicle that actually worked for me. I went on to lose a significant amount of weight and have three children."
Cady remained a member for several years and was then approached to get more involved to help others as she had been helped.
Progressively she became more involved, and has now been a part of TOPS for more than 40 years.
Gasner was also spurred to lose weight by her children. She joined a Tops chapter in 1983 with friends from work, as a social group and to try to lose weight.
But then her doctor gave her some bad news:
"I was 38 and my daughter was born, and I was so overweight at that time that my doctor said I wouldn't see her graduate. I decided right then I had to get serious."
After losing 100 pounds over a period of six years, Gasner's health problems decreased significantly; knee problems the doctor had said would put her in a wheelchair healed with therapy, she reduced her risk for diabetes and her cholesterol went down. She just reached her final goal by losing her last 23 pounds in 2012.
"The first hundred pounds that I lost, it went off ... not too hard. But then the last 23 pounds was the hardest," Gasner said.
She's gone to a few different chapters over the years and has made friends from all over the country. One fellow TOPS member lives in Utah; they met at the TOPS yearly international conference after Gasner lost her first 100 pounds.
According to Gasner, one of the most important lessons she's learned through her weight-loss journey is how to deal with life's challenges without turning to the comfort of food.
"I have all these friends that are here for me," Gasner said. "Every time I got depressed I would always eat, it was like comfort, but now it's the opposite. So that's one thing that I've learned through TOPS, you don't have to rely on food to get you through the tough times."
Instead, Gasner relies on the support group of her family, and friends from TOPS.
"I have a daughter and a son. And they're a really good support group. I feel very lucky and fortunate," she said.

When Conor McCullough '14 launched a hammer throw that landed 242 feet, 10 inches away at Weaver Stadium on Friday, he shattered the Ivy League record by more than eight feet – a record he had set two weeks earlier. In other words, it was business as usual for the men's track and field team, which has erased an astonishing number of rows in various record books in 2012.
The Tigers' magic started in the indoor season, which culminated in a third straight Ivy Heptagonals championship. McCullough set a league record with a weight throw of 76 feet, 1 inch at the Harvard-Yale-Princeton meet Feb. 11, which held up as the nation's longest toss of the indoor season. The same weekend, Donn Cabral '12 and Joe Stilin '12 set conference records in the 5,000 meters and 3,000 meters, respectively.
The list goes on: Peter Callahan '13 became the third Ancient Eight runner ever to break four minutes in the mile – and he was very nearly joined by Stilin and Cabral later in the season. The distance medley relay set yet another league record March 4. Several other meet and program records have been reduced to footnotes in a historic season for the Tigers.
"This is an exciting time of the season, and it's an exciting year in general for us, because we're having so much success," Cabral said. "We're making sure to enjoy the big PRs [personal records], but we want to stay hungry for the big meets at the end of the season as well."
Not only did McCullough's weight throw at the Sam Howell Invitational set a league record, it is currently the farthest mark in the nation by a good seven feet. The sophomore reportedly had another throw that landed two or three meters beyond his record-setting toss, but he fouled ever so slightly on that attempt.
Meanwhile, Cabral also boasts the nation's top time in the 3,000-meter steeplechase after finishing in 8:39.92 on Friday, nearly six seconds faster than any peer has run this year. After finishing second at NCAAs in each of the past two years to a runner who has since graduated, Cabral is set for big things this spring – just like the rest of the Tigers.
"Right now, we have a higher percentage of guys healthy than I can remember in my time here," Cabral said. "And success brings success – every time we have one guy go out and do something great, and then come back in practice and work out with all his teammates the next day, it's a sign that you have that potential, so it's a big confidence-breeding atmosphere. It's a thing of momentum, and right now we have a lot of it."
Quick takes
BASEBALL and SOFTBALL each went 3-1 this weekend, but neither gained all that much ground on their immediate foes. After winning three of its first 19 non-conference games, the softball team is 5-3 in the Ivy League but still two games behind division leader Cornell. And the baseball team went 6-2, but all that does this year is get you in the door of the Gehrig Division – all four teams are above .500, better than the best Rolfe Division team, and the Gehrig teams went 23-9 in inter-divisional play. For both squads, the next three weeks of divisional play promise to be challenging.
In most sports, statistics show that no team consistently wins close games at a high rate. With two more 4-3 victories this weekend, MEN'S TENNIS is doing its best to be an exception. Since the start of last season, the Tigers have played 10 Ivy League matches; nine have been decided by one point, and Princeton has won eight of those, including all three this year. WOMEN'S TENNIS wasn't as lucky, losing at Yale and Brown to fall to 1-2 in the conference.
After a 10-9 loss at No. 17-ranked Syracuse, it's time to look at the NCAA tournament prospects for MEN'S LACROSSE if the Tigers can't win the Ivy League's automatic bid. Let's look at one possbile scenario: If Princeton finishes in second place in the conference and loses in the Ivy Tournament final, that would give the Tigers a 10-5 overall record and no "bad losses," but only one win over a currently ranked team (No. 18 Villanova). At least two Ivy League teams have been invited to the NCAAs in each of the last three years, and the Tigers look like a tourney team, talent-wise. But that seems like a light profile. A win over No. 5 Cornell – for either a regular-season Ivy title or the automatic bid in the conference tournament – would certainly do the trick.
WOMEN'S LACROSSE throttled Yale 12-4, scoring 10 goals in an 18-minute span sandwiching halftime. That may be the last of the blowouts – Princeton's final five games include four ranked opponents (starting with No. 3 Maryland on Wednesday night) and a tough Harvard squad, followed by the Ivy League tournament.

How Ten Other Retailers' Dress Codes Compare to American Apparel
Dov Charney thinks it's a witch hunt. Judging by the evidence, he may be right.
American Apparel CEO Dov Charney's personal phone number was posted online earlier this week — in the event that serious journalists might actually wish to call him for a quote about the chain's strict dress code and controversial hiring practices (like submitting full-body photographs of potential new employees to corporate). In short, American Apparel has been accused mainly via a series of leaks on Gawker of using a "head-to-toe" screening process to weed out "off-brand" people. Once hired, employees must obey the rules, which include a ban on eyeliner, eye shadow, blush, glitter, liquid foundation, shiny lip gloss, overplucked eyebrows, dyed hair, greasy hair, bangs, gauges, Uggs, Vans, Chucks, moccasins, dirty Keds ... the list goes on. Moreover, some employees have accused AA of telling them to lose weight, and posting photos of their dress-code infractions on the company's intranet for purposes of mocking.
We rang Charney up, of course, and had a pleasant enough chat, but he refused to go on the record since he had been awoken in bed at 7 a.m. L.A. time. He did say, however, that his company's dress-code policy was a non-story, that every store has a dress code, and that Gawker only likes to write about American Apparel — as opposed to, say, White House Black Market — because its readers actually shop there. He further emphasized that hiring store clerks is not about beauty but about personal style. Then he suggested we dress up like Kiss and try applying for retail jobs and see how far we get in the hiring process.
Tempting as that was, we arranged instead to call Charney back that night and talk on the record. We called repeatedly — and texted — but never connected. Bloggers over at the Gloss had better luck, and nailed down Charney for a pretty thorough interview. He told them that the e-mail Gawker published allegedly detailing American Apparel's grooming guidelines had been altered, and essentially reiterated what he told us about this being a non-story:
I think there are dress codes at every hotel, I think there are dress codes at McDonald's. I think it's a fake story, okay? I think there's a dress code at Home Depot. I think it's a fake story to say that American Apparel has a dress code that's different from all retailers. I don't think you can even work in the concierge desk at the common mall if you don't follow a dress code.
To find out if American Apparel's dress code is really that egregious, we surveyed more than two dozen New Yorkers currently working in, and/or recently employed by, the local retail sector, from big-honkin' chains to cool indies. (Full disclosure: In some cases, we identified ourselves as reporters and spoke with store managers; in others, where employees were cagier about speaking to the press, we went undercover as earnest job-seekers, curious about the wardrobe/style demands of potential employment.) The findings were enlightening, to say the least.
Abercrombie & Fitch
What could a store that sticks half-naked beefcakes at its entrance possibly say about dress codes? A lot, apparently. While the company doesn't take photos during the interview process, Individual and group shots are snapped every six months; the photos are then sent to corporate "just for records." Employees must wear in-season clothing (they receive a graduated discount), keep makeup to a minimum, and leave the jewelry at home (engagement rings are okay). Piercings are a deal-breaker, except in the ears (and even then, only one piercing per lobe), and hoops are verboten. Some hires are given a full outfit to start, including a top, bottom, and flip-flops (or in the current case of the Fifth Avenue flagship, tanks and jeggings). The point, noted one employee, is to exhibit "as little glamour as possible."
American Eagle Outfitters
AE-branded clothes are preferred but not required. "I wear Banana Republic all the time and get away with it," one employee boasted, but then added that he can't advertise any logos for competing brands. Tattoos and piercings are generally tolerated, and the company does not photograph its employees or job applicants.
Two different employees at this boho-trendy chain, owned by Urban Outfitters Inc., admitted that the store's hiring practices were intense. Interviews were conducted in groups, and questions included "Are you well-traveled?" and "What kind of music do you like?" Some interviewees felt so pressured to prove their creativity, they brought art portfolios and demo CDs to the interview sessions. Once hired, the pressure was on to look "well-groomed," wear minimal makeup, and buy and wear clothing sold by the store. Tattoos, piercings, and dark-wash denim are all cool, but there's a ban on short shorts, logos, and light-colored denim. "The basic rule is that you dress to our aesthetic," one employee said. "You're still allowed to express yourself [though]. We don't want a bunch of Anthropologie girls running around in the same outfits." Photos are never taken during the hiring process, but the store's "personal shoppers" sometimes try on clothes and accessories, and then have their pictures taken. These images are used as "inspiration" for the other employees, but never leave the stores and aren't submitted for corporate review.
Banana Republic
The Gap Inc.–owned chain asks its employees to wear three business-casual pieces at all times, but is pretty flexible when it comes to defining those three-way combos. For example, pants plus a shirt plus a cardigan or blazer counts, as do pants plus a shirt plus a statement necklace or oversize belt. The items needn't necessarily be from Banana Republic (though the chain does offer a significant employee discount), but they should be within the collection's color palette (translation: taupe = good; safety-cone orange = bad). There's also a laundry list of no-nos: no unnatural hair colors, no visible piercings (ears are okay), no offensive tattoos, no neons, no miniskirts, no bare shoulders or backs, no low-cut tops, no shorts, and no belly-baring midriffs. Corporate has yet to respond about its photo policy.
Betsey Johnson
"Our style is pretty outrageous," one manager told us. "What the girls wear on the floor represents Betsey in every way, shape, or form." Employees are required to wear Betsey, denim is banned, and there are zero rules when it comes to hairstyles, tattoos, and piercings. The company does not photograph its employees or job applicants.
J.Crew Bridal
The newly opened bridal shop asks its employees to wear a white Thomas Mason shirt, charcoal slacks, and two-tone gray flats — all of which are provided by the store. Workers are also requested to keep their nail color in the nude or light-pink family. Corporate has yet to respond about its photo policy.
The North Face
Employees are asked to wear head-to-toe North Face, and are given two shirts, one pair of pants, and a pair of shoes. Visible piercings are not permitted. The company does not photograph its employees or job applicants, but someone from corporate visits every two to three months to make sure all workers are obeying the dress code.
Patricia Field
No surprises here. Management takes a very laissez-faire approach. Explained one boss, "We encourage people to be themselves, but they can't be boring if they're on the floor ... I draw the line when they're too naked. It's not cool to come in naked." Still, management sometimes bends the no-nudity rule for special occasions. "One of our employees dressed as a naked unicorn for Halloween — that was cute," he continued. "It's all about taste. If you can do something and have it be fabulous, then go for it. We try to let people grow." The company does not photograph its employees or job applicants.
Saks Fifth Avenue
Looking "appropriate" is key. That means no denim unless you're working the denim floor (and then it has to be a style that's for sale), no bare shoulders, no miniskirts, no shorts, and no flip-flops. The company does not photograph its employees or job applicants.
Seven New York
There's no formal dress code at this ahead-of-the-trend designer boutique, but employees must possess "innate style" and be "reflective of the merchandise." Skimpy outfits are fine ("[One of our employees] doesn't wear pants anymore, à la Lady Gaga," one worker said), but vintage clothing, bell-bottoms, flared pants, blue denim, and "cheap mainstream shoes" are forbidden. The company does not photograph its employees or job applicants.
Point being, practically every retail business has an image to uphold, and subsequently, a dress code it adheres to. It seems that most of American Apparel's dress-code requirements are comparable to the requirements of other chain retailers. Where the company differs is mainly in its photo-submission rule for potential new employees. Given that sexual-harassment suits have been filed against Charney, this doesn't seem like the brightest policy — in terms of public perception, at the least.
But let's be real: If you've applied for a job at American Apparel, you sorta know what you're in for. You've seen the ads, right? Some things are just par for the course. If you're selling khakis to frat boys at Abercrombie & Fitch, you can't expect management to turn a blind eye to your Adam Lambert makeup. Conversely, if you dress like Big Bang Theory's Howard Wolowitz, you're probably not cut out to sell clothes to fashion diehards at Seven.
At some point, job seekers have to face this reality: It isn't about them. American Apparel, just like Anthropologie or American Eagle Outfitters, is a business, not an hourly worker's personal catwalk. These companies exist to make money, and they do that by selling the public on a specific look — in their store windows, on their racks, and, yes, behind their counters. So American Apparel wants an au-naturel-looking staff, and it wants its managers to take pictures of potential AA reps. That's their prerogative, it's well-documented, and they're pretty forthright about it. If you want to dress up like David Lee Roth and not submit to the hiring whims of corporate management, you'd probably be happier with your naked-unicorn friends at Patricia Field anyway. End of story. Or non-story, as it were.

New Year, New YOU! PCH Sweepstakes Can Make It Happen!
I hope everyone had a great New Year! I rang it in with my buddies at the local bowling alley. The next morning, my Facebook feed was filled with resolutions and articles about them. You know how that saying goes…"new year, new you!" Well many people were making that come true! I read about friends who were going to start making healthier habits the norm. Exercising more, stopping smoking, and eating better were repeated throughout the newsfeed. Many people were taking the change of the New Year as a chance to start a new chapter of their lives.
I reflected on years past and as to what 2013 would bring. Back in 2008, I was a stressed out lady. I was working three jobs. Then, a major change occurred. The Prize Patrol came to Northwest Ohio looking to hand over a really Big Check to me from the PCH Sweepstakes. Trust me, it was LIFE changing.
When I won the $1 Million SuperPrize in August of 2008, it opened up so many opportunities. For one, I dropped two of my three jobs. My husband Scott and I knocked out our debt, donated some funds to local charities and built our dream home. We went from a small trailer to a two-story home that Scott designed. I had definitely started a new chapter in my own life.
Now my vision is focused forward. This past year I created a new chapter by studying for my Ohio Health and Life Insurance License. (Did I pass? Read about it all here!)
The PCH Sweepstakes really let me become a brand new ME! And it can do the same for you, too — especially if you win the $5,000 a Week "Forever" Prize! (Can you believe that if you win, you'd receive $5,000 A Week for your life, plus after that, $5,000 a week for the life of someone you choose!) It's a new year, and that could mean a new you, but first you have to enter the PCH Sweepstakes! Do it every chance you get!

New.York I make it Happen
Congratulations Natalie! You are very blessed!
It would be an unbelievable blessing to win because I live a few thousand dollars below the federal poverty level. If I won, the first thing that I would do is pay for my mother's back operation that she cannot afford. My mother has Peripheral neuropathy and lives in pain every day. She had to quit her job that she loved because she could not do it anymore because of the disease. Instead of getting married in a courthouse, my fiancé and I would able to have a beautiful wedding that we will never get to have. I would love to be able to afford to adopt my adorable stepson. And Instead of putting off having children, my fiancé and I would be able to have kids. I would continue to put myself through college and maintain my 4.0 gpa and I would use the money to pay off my fiancés and my student loans.
Awesome Natalie! I am next too with just $100,000.00!
Hi Natalie!
Yup… I remember seeing the video taped from your winning moment. I laughed cuz you 'were floored!'
Love your big new home and it's wonderful that you give back to PCH like you do! Blessings to you!
Sorry I meant on your accomplishment.
Natalie, I am so happy for you. Your new home is very beautiful. Congrats on our accomplishment , and I hope I win on feb 28.
We wanna win $5,000 a week for life!
Hello Natalie, Glad to hear You & Scott had a blast starting out the New Year! Many Happy Days 2 U Both in 2013!
Thank you, Joye, and the same to you. 🙂

Cassiope is a genus of 9-12 small shrubby species in the family Ericaceae. They are native to the Arctic and north temperate montane regions. The genus is named after Cassiopeia of Greek mythology. Common names, shared with several other similar related genera, include heather and heath. They have scale-like leaves lying against the stems, and produce solitary bell-shaped flowers in late spring. Though hardy, flowers can be damaged by late frosts.
They are cultivated in gardens, suitable sites being rock gardens, peat banks or glades in woodland areas.[1] The hybrid cultivar 'Randle Cook' has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[2]

A case of atypical autoerotic death is described. An 18-year-old white man clad in two brassieres was found dead in his bedroom by his brother. Two wet green terry cloths were under the brassiere cups, connected to the house current via two metal washers and a bifid electrical cord. Literature depicting nude women was found near the victim. Autopsy revealed second-degree and third-degree burns of the mammary regions. Death was attributed to accidental self-electrocution. The authors will discuss typical and atypical forms of autoerotic death.

Azucar de Amor
Building on the strength of last year's debut disc, Birds in Flight, Californian Kat Parra continues her role as an exceptional world-music ambassador with 10 more cross-cultural, multilingual tracks. What began, says Parra, as an exploration of life experience, emerged as an album about hope and, by extension, music's role as a universally uniting force.
Wisely aligning herself again with trombonist Wayne Wallace, who produced Azucar de Amor and wrote or co-wrote eight of the 10 arrangements, Parra opens with a lively mambo/salsa reinterpretation of Stanley Turrentine's "Sugar," adding her own Spanish lyrics. Self-penned Spanish lyrics also figure into a salsa-infused "A Night in Tunisia" that shifts midway from gorgeously dusky to boldly vivacious. The international tour continues with three tunes written by Parra and Wallace: the wild, whirling "Quitate la Queta"; the sexily ebullient samba "Feed My Desire"; and the urgently passionate Afro-Peruvian landó "Un Grito."
Finally, and most majestically, Parra furthers her fervor for Ladino Sephardic music, for which she recently received a Zellerbach Foundation grant, with the roiling, mysterious "Por La Tu Puerta" and the mellifluously ethereal "Esta Montanya d'Enfrente."

Cheers, Nir
wow, great news, nir!
i'm most excited about points 3 and 5, despite i haven't tried it yet (i'm at work).
as for point 1, if you wanna check eiskaltdc++, they use dock and menu bar (tray) icon.
usually, it's set on preferences whether to use one or another, in os x apps.
now, if the purpose is just to minimize it, i think the dock icon is enough, unless you want to provide some quick options in the menu bar like in eiskaltdc++.
i'm using this new soulseek client on windows and really like it alot! thanks for the great work so far, it's already a lot more comfortable to use than the old client.
however, with this new nightly build i experienced two little annoyances.
1. actually, i quite liked in the previous builds that soulseek minimized to the task bar as i had the program fixed to it (win 7 here). would it be possible to include an option to toggle between minimizing to task bar/tray bar?
2. when i have soulseek maximized on the screen, than minimize to the tray icon and reopen from the tray icon again, the window may fill the whole desktop but it isn't maximized (got to click on the maximize-button of the window in the top right to do so).
best regards!
Hello Nir,
Just to say thank you for all your hard work for all these years. Much respect to you.

again, say k is a non-integer rational, clearly. and consider the case y = 0.SYMMETRIC:
Suppose xRy.
x = yk-1.
Suppose yRx.
y = xm-1.
Plugging in for x, and solving for y
y = (yk-1)m-1
y = y(km - m) - 1
1 = (km-m) - 1/y
(km-m) = (y + 1)/y, once again, (km-m) is rational, so R is not symmetric.
now this one is a little shaky. how do we know that (x + 1)/z is not an integer? can z = x + 1? and of course, consider the case z = 0 since you divide by itTRANSITIVE:
Suppose xRy.
x = yk-1.
Suppose yRz
y = zn-1
Plugging in for y and solving for x
x = (zn-1)k - 1
x = z(nk - k) - 1
x/z = (nk - k) -1/z
x/z + 1/z = (nk - k)
(x+1)/z = (nk - k), so again, (nk - k) is rational, so R is not transitive
This is the only way that I could come up to disprove the relation. Please correct me if I am wrong on any work and show how I can correct with an explanation. Much thanks.

Mild and cakey, these get 5 stars for also being a healthy lunchbox treat that's quick to make. Had to bake mine longer. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
A very tasty, and low fat, treat!! I found that the amount of allspice was fine IF you doubled the amount of cocoa powder. I just felt that 1 tsp wouldn't quite do it. We were very pleased with the results! Thanks for sharing.
I actually made these brownies last night (from the exact same recipe off of verybestbaking.com) and they are VERY good. However, they have just a little bit too much "spice" in them, so maybe reduce the allspice to 1/4 tsp or so. Good stuff!

Tax Policy to Reduce Carbon Emissions in a Distorted Economy: Illustrations from a South Africa CGE Model
Noting that developing countries may not have the administrative capacity to levy a "pure" carbon tax, we compare the impact of alternative energy taxes with that of a carbon tax in an economy with multiple distortions. We use a disaggregated computable general equilibrium (CGE) model of the South African economy and simulate a range of tax policies that reduce CO2 emissions by 15 percent. Consistent with a "first-best" economy, a carbon tax will have the lowest marginal cost of abatement. But the relationship between a tax on energy commodities and one on pollution-intensive commodities depends critically on other distortions in the system and on structural rigidities in the economy. We demonstrate that if South Africa were able to remove distortions in the labor market, the cost of carbon taxation would be negligible. We conclude that the welfare costs of taxing carbon emissions in developing countries depend more on other distortions than on the country's own carbon emissions.

By Errol Castens/NEMS Daily Journal
OXFORD – Cary Sallis started out as a firefighter with the College Hill fire company in his mid-teens. As of July 1, he became the new chief of Oxford Fire Department, overseeing the work of 60 safety professionals and 15 reservists.
"My father was a volunteer with the Lafayette County Fire Department," he said. "They signed a release that let me work with them."
Sallis, the father of CaraAnne, 13, and Zakery, 7, is married to Kimberly Sallis, who is the director of psychology at North Mississippi Regional Center.
It was after a stint as a diesel mechanic that Cary Sallis heard the call of full-time firefighting.
"Fighting fires is an adrenaline kick," he said. "We don't want to see anyone's house catch fire, but the fact is that houses do catch fire, and we're there to put them out."
Of course, there's a fine line between thrill and terror. Running through a burning building is one thing; running blind is another, such as when the massive Whirlpool appliance factory caught fire in August 2004.
"We had to use thermal cameras to take crews in and out," Sallis said. "We sat back and looked at it afterward: If the camera battery had died, we would have been lost."
Even more gut-wrenching was the inferno – just a day earlier – that killed three Uni- versity of Mississippi ATO fraternity members.
"We can build buildings back," he said. "We can't replace life."
Continually increasing fire safety for people in Oxford and at Ole Miss, Sallis said, means the department is constantly upgrading its equipment, training and other factors.
"Equipment and technology have changed so much," he said. "Our trucks are giant computers. The technology on how we approach hazmat … has moved by leaps and bounds."
City officials recently identified a 3.5-acre site on McElroy Drive next to the post office for a new station to combine crews from the aging No. 1 firehouse on North Lamar and No. 2 at Washington and Jackson avenues.
"The lot location really is ideal for us," Sallis said, noting it would provide room for an eventual training facility.
Longer-term plans include another new station near the Conference Center or off East University Avenue.
"With the high school and other schools being in that area, we need to work toward adding coverage," he said.
Being chief has given Sallis new insight into the adage, "The buck stops here."
Flashing one of his frequent grins, the 45-year-old said, "Now I've got to have the answer, or know where to get it."
