text: Politics Political news Ohio's Golden Week Of Early Voting Is Back - At Least For Now By Howard Wilkinson • May 29, 2016 Ohio's amazing "Golden Week" – the week before the deadline for voter registration where Ohioans can register to vote and cast their ballots at the same time. Amazing, because it seems to keep materializing and de-materializing. Abracadabra! Hocus pocus! Now you see it; now you don't. The Latest In Presidential Primary News From The Political Junkie By Mark Heyne • May 26, 2016 Pete Rightmire/WVXU Listen Listening... / 50:21 Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton won Washington State's primaries Tuesday. It looks all but certain the two will face-off in November. But Bernie Sanders has vowed to stay in the race until the convention. Howard Wilkinson's Monday Chat: A Veep From Ohio? By Howard Wilkinson • May 23, 2016 Ohio hasn't had a vice presidential candidate since Republican John Bricker in 1944, but this year, three Ohio politicians, two Republicans and one Democrat, are under consideration. WVXU politics reporter Howard Wilkinson talked Monday morning with news director Maryanne Zeleznik about the chances of John Kasich, Rob Portman or Sherrod Brown being named to the number two spot on the major party tickets. Carran And Meyer Will Face Off For Covington Mayor; Eight To Run For City Commission By Howard Wilkinson • May 18, 2016 A veteran state legislator and the incumbent moved on in Tuesday's Covington mayoral primary to face each other in November. Joe Meyer, a former state representative and senator who worked in former Gov. Steve Beshear's cabinet, came in first with 47 percent of the vote in a field of four candidates for mayor, according to the Kenton County Clerk's office. Sherry Carran, who was first elected to the city commission in 2007 and became the city's first female mayor in 2013, finished second with 40 percent of the vote. Reviewing Kentucky Primary Results By Mark Heyne • May 18, 2016 Listen Listening... / 29:51 The Kentucky Republican Party held its presidential caucus this March, but the state held its primary yesterday. Hillary Clinton won the Democratic presidential race with a very narrow win over Bernie Sanders. And members of both parties voted for the candidates they want to compete in the down-ticket races this November. Newport's Primary Ballot Will Include A Race That Won't Be Counted By Howard Wilkinson • May 16, 2016 Newport voters will go to the polls Tuesday and find a race that really isn't a race. And if they cast a ballot in that race, it won't be counted. It's the city commission race; and Campbell County Clerk Jim Luersen said there is a good reason for not counting the votes. Incumbent commissioner John Hayden decided in January that he would not run for re-election, but did not file paperwork with the clerk's office in time to have his name removed from the ballot, Luersen said. Will Ohio's Senate Candidates Want To Spend Much Time With Their Presidential Candidates? By Howard Wilkinson • May 15, 2016 It's entirely possible – even likely – that many people, including the subset of humanity known as "political pundits," can take polling done six months before a presidential election way too seriously. Not to denigrate the pollsters. The Quinnipiac University Polling Institute, the academic polling operation that released two "key state" polls on the presidential election and Senate elections in Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania last week is well-respected and professional. With Two Incumbents Not Running, Covington Commission Race Draws A Crowd By Howard Wilkinson • May 13, 2016 One thing is certain - Covington residents will elect at least two new city commissioners this year. Incumbents Steve Frank and Chuck Eilerman are not running for re-election. That has drawn a crowd of 10 Covington commission candidates who will be on the ballot in Tuesday's Kentucky primary. Of Four Candidates For Covington Mayor, Only Two Will Survive Tuesday's Primary By Howard Wilkinson • May 12, 2016 Four candidates - including the incumbent - are vying in Tuesday's primary election to become the mayor of Covington, a city, which, with about 41,000 residents, is by far the largest of Northern Kentucky's cities. The top two finishers in Tuesday's primary will face off in the November election for a two-year term as mayor. The mayor with four elected city commissioners set the city's agenda and direction. Howard Wilkinson's Monday Chat: What Will A Clinton-Trump Race In Ohio Look Like? By Howard Wilkinson • May 9, 2016 WVXU politics reporter Howard Wilkinson talked with News Director Maryanne Zeleznik Monday morning about how a race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton might play out in the critical swing state of Ohio this fall. The Impact Of Trump's Win On Portman And Kasich By Howard Wilkinson • May 8, 2016 Donald Trump is going to be the Republican nominee for president. Anyone with an elementary grasp of mathematics has known that for some time now. The once-gargantuan field of GOP presidential candidates dwindled in recent weeks to three – Trump, Ted Cruz and John Kasich. And, after Trump's thumping of Cruz Tuesday in Indiana, it was finally down to one, with first Cruz and then Kasich falling on their swords and crying "uncle." Howard Wilkinson: Why Kasich Failed In His Presidential Bid By Howard Wilkinson • May 5, 2016 WVXU politics reporter Howard Wilkinson talked with news director Maryanne Zeleznik this morning on Ohio Gov. John Kasich's withdrawal from the GOP presidential contest. Why did Kasich fold up his tent and come home? Because there was no point in going on. Ken Rudin, The Political Junkie, Joins Us To Help Make Sense Of The Presidential Campaign By Mark Heyne • May 5, 2016 Provided Listen Listening... / 48:56 Soon after Tuesday's Indiana primaries, both Ted Cruz and John Kasich suspended their campaigns, leaving Donald Trump the apparent GOP nominee. And even though Bernie Sanders pulled out a narrow win over Hillary Clinton, it is all but certain she will be the Democratic nominee. So at this point it looks as if the candidates who will run in the general election are two people who, according to recent polls, most Americans just do not like all that much. And members of both parties are left asking, "Now what?" Hamilton County Elections Board Heads To Norwood In January By Howard Wilkinson • May 3, 2016 Hamilton County Board of Elections The Hamilton County Board of Elections unanimously voted Tuesday morning on a lease agreement for a new home in Norwood, on the site of the former General Motors plant. In January, the board of elections, now located at 824 Broadway Downtown, will move all of its operations into Norwood's Central Parke office complex on Smith Road. Howard Wilkinson's Monday Chat: Will Hoosiers Help Trump Nail Down Nomination? By Howard Wilkinson • May 2, 2016 Listen Listening... / 5:48 WVXU politics reporter Howard Wilkinson talked Monday morning with Jay Hanselman about Tuesday's presidential primary in Indiana. Will Hoosier Republicans help Donald Trump secure the GOP presidential nomination; or will they knock him off track by going for Ted Cruz of Texas?

Nikon D70 / 50 for IR ??
Oct 21, 2006
I am thinking of upgrading my Fuji S5500 to a dslr, and my decision between Canon EOS400D or Nikon D50 (maybe D70) is hinging on Infrared capability.
Has anyone compared these two cameras? I'm sure there will be some out there who shoot IR with the D50 and D70 - are they any good? I'm not interested in modding my brand new baby by removing the IR pass filter either... I like warranties!
Any advice is hugely appreciated! I also don't mind if exposures are slightly longer, as I shoot all my IR from a tripod anyway.

[Cyril C.] Ollivierre [a fellow West Indian student at Howard University and president of the campus Garvey Club] and Padmore met as dishwashers at Camp Kinderland, a resort for leftwing working-class Jewish New Yorkers which had opened in 1923 in Hopewell Junction. When washing up for a large party, the two fell behind. As the stacks of dirty dishes mounted in the steaming kitchen and the waiters' voices became more and more abusive, Nurse [i.e., Padmore] grew indignant.

But a new urban agrihood debuted by The Michigan Urban Farming Initiative (MUFI) might change your mind. The three-acre development boasts a two-acre garden, a fruit orchard with 200 trees, and a sensory garden for kids. If you need a refresher on the definition of agrihood, MUFI describes it as an alternative neighborhood growth model. An agrihood centers around urban agriculture, and MUFI offers fresh, local produce to around 2,000 households for free."

"… [T]oward the end of his life [Malcolm X] argued that blacks should put aside religious and philosophical differences and recognize they had a common oppressor. Antiblack racism, he argued, negatively affects all blacks, regardless of faith or party affiliation, and thus blacks should unify to resist racial oppression on nonsectarian and non-ideological grounds. Although he continued to believe in the necessity of autonomous black institutions, he did come to relax his opposition to alliance with progressive whites.

These are all invaluable dimensions or possible conceptions central to the concept of integrity, but they are frequently silent about their existing or possible relations to and relevance for the wider social and political world. At least that's one lesson to be drawn from the substantively revised entry on "integrity" in the online Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (SEP): [….] "[Susan Babbitt's account of integrity] ... enables us to raise questions about the relationship between social structures and personal integrity.

And among the figurative uses of the word, "milk" is "[s]omething pleasant and (supposedly) nourishing," the parenthetical qualification no doubt appreciated by dairy lobbyists. Finally, our dictionary defines milk variously as a "culinary, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, or other preparation of herbs, drugs, etc., resembling milk" [emphasis added]. Within the category of phrases, our dictionary cites "almond milk" and "rice milk," and among several terms with "milk" in them we discover "milk stout" ('a kind of sweet stout made with lactose') and "milk-tree" ('any of several trees having a milky juice').

Well Fordham University Law Professor has developed an approach in which states attorney's general could move to dissolve the Trump Corporation in all its U.S. tributaries. In accord with that Free Speech for People has sent a 24 page letter to New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman to open an investigation to determine whether to revoke the New York charter of the Trump Organization, Inc. The basis for this is the history of its illegal activity including concerns about Emoluments Clause violations.

On the campaign trail, Donald Trump contended that he knew the unfairness of the system, a system that helped him, and he would move to fix it. He would drain the swamp. Millions believed him. The evidence that Trump's intentions were quite different is manifest, but from my perspective the most conspicuous example is his treatment of the so-called fiduciary rule. That rule provides that those who give retirement investment advice steer clients toward investments that are in their best interest. The current rule permits many advisers (brokers and insurance agents who work on commission) to steer clients toward investments that are suitable for them, but not necessarily in their best interests. In other words, the current rule permits conflicts of interest and resulting higher...

Natural Law as "Moral Aspiration." It is not about the well-worn legal positivist v. natural law debate but rather discusses how best to characterize natural law theory with regard to its intrinsic relation to justice and morality. The paper is in response to a contrary characterization of the natural law tradition made by Professor Thom Brooks so as to contrast that tradition with Hegel's "internalist" theory of natural law. I argue that the natural law tradition is not properly described as "externalist" but is in fact "internalist," even if not in the sense Brooks ascribes to Hegel.

Importantly, only one Committee vote is needed not a full vote of Congress. Also, although language seems to preclude sharing the returns with the public, this can happen. Quoting Reuters: 'The three committees do not need permission from Congress as a whole to review tax records behind closed doors, according to tax experts and congressional aides.

One type of argument goes to to the specific constitutional and statutory merits of the order. The government's brief thus suggests that the executive order doesn't engage in religious discrimination, doesn't violate due process, and so on. The other type of argument, though, goes to the more general claim that at least "those aliens [who] are outside the United States and have never been admitted to this country" can assert no constitutional rights in the first place.

Our lives proceed more efficiently because by relying on posted speed limits we spend less time calculating how fast to drive, in the same way that the observant Jew is relieved by the rules of kashrut from having to train herself as a biologist just to know which foods to eat and which to avoid.

WORMERVEER, THE NETHERLANDS — Midway through this year IOI—Loders Croklaan Europe will begin to supply fully segregated palm oil certified by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (R.S.P.O.). Judging by recent company statements from Nestle S.A., Vevey, Switzerland, and Unilever P.L.C., London, a market exists for such product in Europe.
Loders Croklaan Europe's segregation will ensure that sustainably produced palm oil will be kept physically separate from non-sustainable palm oil at every stage of the supply chain. European manufacturers who use the segregated palm oil will be able to make the claim, "This product contains only R.S.P.O.-certified palm oil," according to Loders Croklaan Europe, which has an office in Wormerveer and is part of the IOI Group. Chris Linderman, business unit manager of Bulk Oils Europe for IOI—Loders Croklaan, made the announcement April 7 in Paris during a seminar on sustainable palm oil.
A new refinery in Rotterdam Maasvlakte, The Netherlands, is scheduled to open in June. It will have the storage capacity, infrastructure and technology necessary to keep sustainable palm oil wholly segregated from other oils.
The Loders Croklaan Europe announcement comes after Nestle S.A. said it plans to use only certified sustainable palm oil by 2015. In a March 18 statement, Nestle S.A. said, "Like many other companies, we buy palm oil from different suppliers. At this point in time these suppliers of palm oil say they can't currently guarantee that one particular company is excluded, due to the mingling of palm oil in a very complex supply chain.
"We will continue to pressure our suppliers to eliminate any sources of palm oil that are related to rainforest destruction and to provide valid guarantees of traceability as quickly as possible. We will not portray palm oil as free of such oils unless such guarantees are clear and reliable."
On April 7, Unilever said it had secured enough R.S.P.O.-endorsed GreenPalm certificates of sustainable palm oil to cover the requirements of its European business as well as the requirements for its business in Australia and New Zealand. The achievement is part of Unilever's commitment to buy all of its palm oil from certified sustainable sources by 2015.
"Until suitable segregated supply chains become available, GreenPalm certificates are the best option to encourage growers to comply with the requirements of the R.S.P.O. and certify their plantations are sustainable," said Gavin Neath, senior vice-president of global communications and sustainability for Unilever. "Our consumers can now confidently choose Unilever brands in the knowledge that we are actively supporting the development of a sustainable palm oil industry."
Unilever in 2009 purchased 180,000 GreenPalm certificates at a premium to the market price for ordinary palm oil.
"We hope that our actions will transform the palm oil industry and help put a stop to deforestation in Southeast Asia," Mr. Neath said.
Unilever, Nestle and IOI all belong to the R.SP.O., which was created in 2004 to promote the growth and use of sustainable palm oil products through global standards and engagement of stakeholders. The not-for-profit association unites stakeholders from palm oil producers, palm oil processors or traders, consumer goods manufacturers, retailers, banks and investors, environmental or nature conservation non-government organizations and social or developmental non-government organizations.

Agricultural and Environmental Education
Growing an appreciation and understanding of the world around us
In keeping with the Deed of Trust and Milton Hershey's deep appreciation of the environment and agriculture, our Agricultural and Environmental Education program supports student success by engaging children and adults in experiential, land-based learning.
The goals of the AEE program are to:
- Enhance student achievement in all academic areas through first-hand experiences that provide an authentic context for learning.
- Foster improved agricultural and environmental literacy.
- Facilitate development of life and career skills.
There also are cooperative learning experiences and internships available for high school students who would like to explore a future in an AEE career field.
Animal Internships – The animal center internships offer students the opportunity to care for livestock, including sheep, goats, beef cattle, rabbits, and other small animals, all on campus. Students help to feed the animals, clean their enclosures, and prepare them for show. A separate opportunity is available for students to work with equine animals
Horticulture Internships – Interns learn about the art and science of growing plants. Interns either work at our Project Market harvesting and selling produce to the public or in the area of Floriculture where interns learn about sustainable agriculture, floral design and the art of horticulture. Students involved in the Floriculture Program learn how to properly pick flowers, identify plants, and design floral creations. In addition to these lessons, they also learn how to manage a business, with a focus on finances, marketing, and customer relations.
Spartan Ice Cream Center Internships – Interns participate in the production, marketing and selling of Spartan Ice Cream to the public. The Ice Cream store is right on campus and is a summertime favorite in the community! Students learn how to interact with customers, work as a team, and handle finances.
Environmental Internships – Interns learn about our natural resources through habitat restoration, tree plantings and wildlife studies. A day in the life of an intern from the Environmental Center might involve installing barn owl boxes to create a nesting area for the birds, maintaining fish pens at the center's trout nursery, or removing invasive exotic plants from the environment. The program teaches an appreciation of nature, respect for the environment, and a love of the outdoors, along with marketable job skills.
Community Outreach Internships – Interns learn the importance of giving back to the local community through trail maintenance at a State Park, harvesting for food banks, and assisting with animal programs.
Where We're Located
The Environmental Center at Milton Hershey School resides at the renovated Willowwood dairy barn. The Environmental Center is surrounded by native warm-season meadows, wetlands and woodplots which provides students and staff a wonderful setting for outdoor exploration.

CRESCENT CITY - The Sheriff's Substation at the Crescent City Harbor is partially without a roof due high winds associated with the recent storms.
The Del Norte County Sheriff's Marine Sub-Station had part of it's roof peeled back, and a portion completely ripped off this weekend. Repair is delayed due to the current lack of available roofers.
The storm also broke loose the Fish Buyers Office Shack from it's attachment, blowing it across the dock and almost into the bay.
The city also saw six trees blown down in the greenbelt area along Highway 101.

Japanese Colonialism in Taiwan: Land Tenure,Development and Dependency, 1895-1945By: Chih-ming Ka (author)Paperback
More than 4 weeks availability
DescriptionExploring the dynamics of development and dependency, this book traces the experience of Taiwan under Japanese colonial rule. Chih-ming Ka shows how, unlike in other sugar-producing colonies, Taiwan was able to sustain its indigenous family farms and small-scale rice millers, who not only survived but thrived in competition with Japanese sugar capital. Focusing on Taiwan's success, the author reassesses theories of capitalist transformation of colonial agriculture and reconceptualizes the relationship between colonial and indigenous socioeconomic and political forces. Considering the influence of sugar on the evolution of family farms and the contradictory relationship between sugar and rice production, he explores the interplay of class forces to explain the unique experience of colonial Taiwan.

We are Owners and Operators of a couple of businesses in Northern British Columbia. We have 4 children (3 boys and a girl). We are looking forward to the day that we will stay in Maricopa all the time.
The Owner purchased this house in 2011
We absolutely love Arizona! The weather and the wonderful people! We are looking so forward to our own vacation time down there to get away from the Northern BC winters and for the boys in the family to play at some great golf courses! The girls love to just relax around the pool and shop. Maricopa is a perfect size community where you don't feel that you are jammed up in a sprawling metropolis. We love it there and look forward to retirement!
The house was perfect and the Owner was a pleasure to work with. 5 stars all the way!
We spent 9 wonderful days in Maricopa with our 3 daughters! We are planning on returning in 2 years from now to this home (if it is available) because we had such a comfortable stay! The owner was easy to reach (by text or email) to answer any questions we had but the notes that were provided prior to our trip were very easy to understand and well communicated.
The yard was simply amazing!! We had fresh lemons (in April) off the tree for our drinks when we were relaxing by the beautiful pool. The putting green was so much fun for the family - what a delight!
Our neighborhood and neighbors were so quiet and the community was so clean & beautiful! When we went for walks in the morning or evening, Everyone said "hello"! We felt safe and comfortable in the home and in the community! We can't wait to go back in 2 years!! Thanks so much to the owners for sharing their home with us!
We enjoyed this lovely home. It was a quiet and relaxing vacation. The location has every thing you need and easy to get around. The owner was always available to answer any questions we had. We would consider returning.
This rancher in a very nice, quiet area that was perfect for us especially as the unheated pool was at a perfect temperature for our use staying in March. The golf putting green was a bit challenging for my handicap though. Ample food shopping nearby (Fry's, Walmart etc) and a good restaurant that you can walk to at the local golf course. The only advice I can think of to offer to the owners (who are great to deal with) is to perhaps have a couple of bikes as the area is great for riding around and enhance the internet speed a bit.
Great home with ALL the amenities of home. Beautiful neighborhood. Great golf course 3 minutes away. Be back next year!
We stayed at VRBO 339289 for 6 weeks. The property surpasses its presentation. It is beautifully decorated, very clean and has all the necessary amenities. It sounds strange, but we found the little post-it notes helpful in understanding systems such as the alarm etc.
The solar heated pool was a real bonus and we used it often. The putting green was put to the test, although the results didn't always manifest on the golf course!
The owner was especially generous with his golf equipment and the on-site computer, printer and phone were very helpful for reservations and confirmations. When we had a query, he replied immediately. There is also an excellent information-filled binder on-site and we added all the golf course score cards (minus our scores) that we could find.
We would recommend this property highly, if you are a golfer there are a number of excellent courses in the area, although only two in close proximity. If you enjoy baseball there are numerous games in Phoenix. The immediate area is excellent for cycling and walking. Interesting shopping, hiking, and restaurants are located a little further afield in Chandler and Scottsdale, but there are the requisite supermarkets, pharmacies and a few restaurants within a 5 minute drive. If you run out of reading material check out the local library, a bargain on used books!
Loved it,thanks so much to the owners!

Mr. and Mrs. John Client
1000 Devine Street
Irmo, SC 29063-9238
Dear John and Jane:
The purpose of this letter is to assist you with gathering information for the preparation of your 2006 income tax returns.
The purpose of this letter is to assist you with gathering information for the preparation of your 2006 income tax returns. According to our records, you will receive 1099s from Charles Schwab and Company, Inc with a projected mailing date of January 31st. If you do not have this information in hand shortly after this mailing date, please contact us. We will assist you in locating any missing forms.
You may receive a 1099-R related to the rollover of the 401(k) account. We are enclosing documentation to provide to your CPA reflecting the deposit of this rollover amount in your IRA Rollover account.
Jane surrendered a life insurance policy with New York Life in 2006. The taxable gain on this policy should be on the 1099 from New York Life. If not, we can assist you in documenting this information.
You each made a $4,000 non-deductible contribution to an IRA for the 2006 tax year. Please be aware that Form 8606 needs to be filed for these nondeductible contributions.
John made a $4,000 contribution to a Roth IRA for the 2006 tax year.
Jane made a $4,000 contribution to a Roth IRA for the 2006 tax year. As you are aware there are income limitations on the ability to fund a Roth IRA. If your adjusted gross income is too high, you will begin to lose the ability to fund this Roth IRA. If this occurs, let us know so we may take corrective action and reclassify this contribution.
You made a gift of 150 shares of Pfizer for which we do not have the cost basis to Central Carolina Community Foundation. The value of the gift for income tax purposes will be on the statement provided by the charitable organization. Please provide this information to Kris when completing his tax organizer.
Please be aware that the amounts you pay for your long-term care insurance are deductible as a medical expense on your Schedule A within certain constraints. The premiums paid for the year should be provided to your CPA.
Because you are the beneficiary of a Generation Skipping/Credit Shelter/�. Trust, we have enclosed a distributions report for tax-year and a Portfolio Statement as of the end of the tax-year. If we have omitted any items that may be needed for preparation of this return, please have your CPA call me and we will be happy to provide the needed data.
We have enclosed a printout of your taxable sales for the year that provides cost basis and acquisition information.
You will note there are a number of investments with an acquisition date of January 1, 1985. We do have the cost basis for these purchases but not exact acquisition dates for all blocks. Thus, January 1, 1985, is just a placeholder and is accurate for income tax reporting purposes.
During the 2006 tax year you made annual exclusion gifts to family members. We have provided this information to David Sojourner so that he may determine whether to file a gift tax return.
During the year, you contributed $5,000 to the South Carolina 529 Plan. This contribution will reduce your taxable income on the South Carolina return and therefore your South Carolina tax liability. You should have a statement from the Future Scholar program reflecting your contributions for 2006 which you will need to include in your tax preparation package for your CPA.
We are enclosing a report documenting the margin interest paid on your taxable accounts in 2006.
The money market managers will not be able to provide this information until late February. Once we have received the information, we will post it on the Abacus Planning Group website, www.abacusplanninggroup.com. If you will navigate to Strategic Partners and select Certified Public Accountants, you will be able to retrieve this information for all Charles Schwab and Company and Vanguard Group money markets and bond funds.
We hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if we can provide you or any additional information in preparing your income taxes. When your income taxes are completed, please make sure we receive a copy for our files.
Sincerely yours,
Cheryl R. Holland

Sequenom Reports First Quarter 2010 Financial Results
(Logo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20040415/SQNMLOGO)
First Quarter Results
Gross margin in the first quarter of 2010 was 50.5% compared with 60.6% for the first quarter of 2009, reflecting increased costs associated with the start-up of the diagnostics business and changes in the mix of products sold in the genetic analysis business. The overall gross margin included a 61% margin generated by the genetic analysis segment which was offset by the negative margin generated from the company's molecular diagnostics segment.
Research and development (R&D) expenses were $11.2 million for the first quarter of 2010, compared with $8.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily related to clinical sample acquisition costs associated with the company's Trisomy 21 (T21) program and a licensing payment for certain intellectual property rights for age-related macular degeneration (AMD) related genetic variants.
Selling, general and administration expenses of $11.1 million for the first quarter of 2010 decreased from $14.3 million for the first quarter of 2009. The decrease was primarily due to decreased legal fees associated with litigation and lower share based compensation expense.
Total costs and expenses for the first quarter of 2010 were $27.5 million, compared with $26.5 million for the comparable quarter in 2009. For the three months ended March 31, 2010 and 2009, the company recorded $2.4 million and $3.0 million, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense.
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Available for Sale Securities
As of March 31, 2010 Sequenom had total cash and short- and long-term marketable securities of $29.2 million and $8.6 million in accounts receivable.
"The Sequenom team is optimistic about the future opportunities that lie ahead for our genetic analysis and molecular diagnostics businesses." stated Harry F. Hixson, Jr., Ph.D., chairman and chief executive officer. "We are pleased to announce timelines for the development and clinical testing of our T21 test, which we expect will be of interest to physicians, patients and investors. Successfully meeting our T21 test development milestones, advancing our AMD test development program, and seeking partnering opportunities for some of our unfunded projects will be a major focus for Sequenom during 2010."
Paul V. Maier, interim chief financial officer, stated, "Overall first quarter financial results met our expectations. Our achievement of more than $10 million of revenue in a quarter that historically has lower revenues is a good indicator that we can deliver growth in 2010. As a result, we believe that orders for the MassARRAY system and related consumables will provide a concrete foundation for the company as we continue to develop our molecular diagnostics capabilities."
Recent and Upcoming Business Highlights
T21 (Down syndrome) Update - The company remains committed to the development, validation and launch of a noninvasive T21 test. Following extensive scientific experimentation, the company has decided to proceed with a purely DNA based method for the detection of the T21 aneuploidy using massively parallel sequencing. Taken together the R&D and clinical sample collection costs required for a key T21 test validation study represent the single largest investment the company will make in 2010.
The company has established a number of program milestones to measure progress in the development of its noninvasive T21 test. Each milestone will be dependent upon the successful completion of preceding milestones:
Expanding Diagnostic Opportunities - In order to meet anticipated demand for the LDTs the company is developing, Sequenom plans to open a second CLIA-certified laboratory in its San Diego facility. It is anticipated that this lab will be operational early in the fourth quarter of 2010.
In February 2010 the company entered into a license agreement with Optherion, under which Sequenom was granted an exclusive, worldwide, royalty-bearing license to know-how and a consolidated portfolio of issued and pending patent rights relating to age-related macular degeneration diagnostics. This portfolio had been assembled by Optherion from a number of prominent academic institutions. The licensed patent portfolio includes 17 issued or allowed United States and foreign patents, and 68 pending United States and foreign patent applications. The license agreement covers extensive intellectual property rights for significant AMD related genetic variants. The company expects to launch an AMD LDT during the first half of 2011.
Commercial Launch - On April 19, 2010, the company announced the availability of its next generation MassARRAY platform, the MassARRAY Analyzer 4. This new high performance nucleic acid analysis platform has been designed to meet customer demand for a bench top instrument with greater flexibility across multiple applications, improved reliability and faster performance. With the capability for quantitative gene expression analysis, epigenetic nucleic acid methylation analysis as well as high-throughput genotyping and SNP fine mapping applications, the MassARRAY Analyzer 4 is designed to empower the basic and translational research community to advance findings from basic genetic and biomarker studies toward clinical utility in diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of diseases. The MassARRAY Analyzer 4 system will be initially offered for research-use-only and, subject to FDA clearance, will be released to CLIA certified laboratories for the generation and implementation of LDTs. For more information on the MassARRAY Analyzer 4 see http://www.massarrayanalyzer.com.
The company launched the SensiGene(TM) RHD Genotyping and the Fetal Sex Determination tests in February 2010. Both of these new tests detect and analyze circulating cell-free fetal (ccff) DNA. The SensiGene RHD Genotyping test examines multiple regions of the gene that is known to be the most common genetic basis of RhD negative phenotypes. In addition to quality control metrics to ensure accuracy both tests also utilize a fetal identifier control assay to verify the presence of fetal DNA, in particular for RhD negative, female fetuses.
Litigation Update - On May 3, 2010, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of California entered an order approving the final approval of a stipulation of settlement reached in the class action securities lawsuits related to alleged violations of federal securities laws consolidated under the caption In re Sequenom Inc. Securities Litigation. Even though the settlement has received final approval from the court, the court's approval may be subject to appeal and will not become effective until the time for appeals has lapsed without any appeal. If the settlement becomes effective, Sequenom will issue approximately 6.8 million shares of its common stock in connection with the settlement.
On May 6, 2010, Sequenom and the individual defendants entered into a stipulation of settlement that will resolve all of the pending derivative actions. The stipulation of settlement remains subject to approval by the U.S. District Court and the Superior Court of California. Subject to final approval of the stipulation of settlement, in exchange for a release of all claims by the plaintiffs and a dismissal of the derivative actions, Sequenom has agreed (i) to adopt or continue certain corporate governance measures and (ii) to pay the plaintiffs' attorneys a total of $2.5 million. A significant portion of the attorney's fees is to be paid by its insurance carriers. Sequenom has the right to elect to issue up to 200,000 shares of its common stock to pay its portion of the attorneys' fees.
In October 2009, plaintiff Xenomics, Inc. (now known as TrovaGene) filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York naming Sequenom as the defendant alleging that Sequenom had breached the license agreement entered into by the parties on October 29, 2008, which provides Sequenom with exclusively licensed patent rights for the use of fetal nucleic acids obtained from maternal urine, and that the plaintiff has suffered damages as a result. In December 2009, Sequenom removed the case to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On May 4, 2010, the district court granted the Sequenom's motion to dismiss the action because the license agreement specifically provides that if TrovaGene seeks to resolve a dispute arising under the agreement, it must do so by commencing an arbitration in San Diego. TrovaGene has not notified Sequenom whether it would appeal the dismissal or commence arbitration proceedings in San Diego.
Note to Investors
As previously announced, Sequenom will hold a conference call to discuss the first quarter financial results today, May 6, 2010, beginning at 1:30 p.m. Pacific Time.

After I changed the spark plugs in my 1992 Honda Accord I started the car, it started right up but there was a bunch of white smoke coming from under car, why?
I already changed the distributer cap and
rotor because I was having trouble starting
the car and keeping it started.When the
smoke came I stopped the engine. Could
this be because of the oil spills on engine
while changing plugs or is this something
else? It has never smoked before.
4 Answers
I saw it coming from behind and when I got out and looked I could see smoke coming from exhaust, but my girlfriend said she saw it coming from underneath. When I got back in car ther was lots of smoke inside.
Check for oil leaks that may be getting on your exhaust manifold.
There was a lot of smoke, could this be caused from when I was drippingoil from changing plugs? There is an oil leak but it sat for a week and I started it and never smoked before
The smoke that you're describing wouldn't be due to a few drops from changing the plugs. It sounds like you have developed a substantial oil leak from the valve cover or engine out of site. Check it thoroughly and see if you can see where it's wet.
