|Re: st: question on outreg: rows out of order
|Mon, 25 Apr 2005 17:43:19 +0200
Hi Raymond, I also discovered weird things happening when using outreg. It is no longer supported/enhanced, and this probably causes the majority of problems. The new -estimates- command (available in vers. 8) does pretty much the same job, outreg did. And there is an ado called -estout- that is supposed to be even better. Best, Chris At 17:23 25.04.2005, you wrote: >Hi - I apologize if this has been answered before >but I am seeing some strange behavior in the way >outreg orders rows. > >I have read the section of the outreg help file that >deals with row order and I don't think that >explains what's happening, although perhaps it >does in some subtle way I'm missing. > >Anyway, here's what's happening: > >I am running a series of regressions with the same >LHS variable (call it y) and looping through a few >different RHS variables (call them x1,...,x9), along >with a bunch of other RHS variables which stay constant >from model to model (call them z). >So each regression is of the form >regress y xi z >where i=1 in the first regression, i=2 in the second, etc. >I'm using outreg with a varlist of xi _only_ to report the >coefficients, std errs, etc. on just x1, x2,..., x9 from >the different specifications in a single table. > >Everything works fine except that the >rows of the table are out of order. that is, the table >reports specification 1 in row 1, spec 2 in row 2, then >jumps to spec 9, spec 8,..., spec 3. > >(This is kind of hard to explain in words but it should >be pretty clear what I mean from taking a look at one >of the tables: >http://web.mit.edu/guiteras/Public/outreg/OLS_total_trial_outreg.xls >Here's a snippet of the code I used to generate the table >http://web.mit.edu/guiteras/Public/outreg/trial_outreg.txt ) > >Everything's labeled correctly and so on, but it just looks >strange and confusing and would be a pain to correct by hand >(i.e. by rearranging the rows in excel). > >I have read carefully the section of the outreg help file that >discusses row order but I don't think that explains what is >going on, because the varlist in my outreg command is >just a single variable. > >If anyone has some advice on this please share. >If my explanation of the problem needs clarification please >tell me and I will try to do a better job. > >Thanks, >Raymond > >* >* For searches and help try: >* http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/res/findit.html >* http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq >* http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/ * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/res/findit.html * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/

Redding, Stephen and Schott, Peter K. (2003) Distance, skill deepening and development: will peripheral countries ever get rich? 572. Centre for Economic Performance, London School of Economics and Political Science, London, UK.
Download (423Kb) | Preview
This paper models the relationship between countries' distance from global economic activity, endogenous investments in education, and economic development. Firms in remote locations pay greater trade costs on both exports and intermediate imports, reducing the amount of value added left to remunerate domestic factors of production. If skill- intensive sectors have higher trade costs, more pervasive input-output linkages, or stronger increasing returns to scale, we show theoretically that remoteness depresses the skill premium and therefore incentives for human capital accumulation. Empirically, we exploit structural relationships from the model to demonstrate that countries with lower market access have lower levels of educational attainment. We also show that the world's most peripheral countries are becoming increasingly economically remote over time.

What to Eat After Liposuction
posted on
While liposuction will take away the extra fat, how you take care of your body after the procedure will determine how long you will keep that slim silhouette. Many people fear gaining weight after surgery, especially since they cannot work out during the recovery stages.
The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) states that liposuction patients are three times as likely to gain weight after surgery if they do not stick with a healthy diet, and four times as likely to gain weight if they do not maintain a regular exercise routine (Source: Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dec. 2004).
Your liposuction surgery doctor may suggest a high-protein diet during the recovery phase to help you stay strong. A well-balanced meal plan for the weeks and months after surgery can help maintain results, but knowing which foods you can - and cannot eat - during this critical time may be the key to long-term weight management:
What Can I Eat During Recovery From Liposuction Surgery?
Since the liposuction procedure will be taxing on your body, you'll need to make wise food choices so that muscles and skin can heal during the recovery period. The body needs protein to generate new cells, and eating high protein foods can help you maintain your strength and recover quickly. Since you may not be able to workout for a few weeks, staying within your ideal calorie range is especially important. Some valuable foods during recovery include:
- Protein shakes
- Yogurt
- Smoothies
- Apple sauce
- Rice
- Oatmeal
- Steamed and softened vegetables
What Can I Eat To Maintain My Weight After Liposuction?
After the healing process is over, continuing with a healthy diet and exercise routine will help prevent weight gain and reduce the need for any more surgery. According to Rod Rohrich, MD, author of the study published in the ASPS journal most people can return to a normal diet, but will still need to monitor their calorie intake so they do not gain weight. He states, "If patients want positive long-term results from liposuction, they have to be willing to eat a proper diet and exercise. Ultimately, it's a lifestyle choice."
A well-balanced meal plan that promotes a healthy heart and provides the muscles with enough nutrients will vary by individual. Still, it's important to be cautious of extreme diets that limit your food options. Elisa Zied, M.S., R.D. and a spokesperson for the American Dietetic Association indicates that, "To eliminate specific foods and food groups, especially those people enjoy, is a recipe for disaster and can lead to feelings of deprivation, not to mention nutritional imbalances".
Eating smaller portions throughout the day and avoiding overly processed foods can help you maintain your weight with ease. A diet comprised of the following foods may help maintain results after liposuction:
- Lean protein such as salmon, white meat chicken, turkey and other freshwater fish
- Whole grains such as brown rice and oatmeal
- Leafy green vegetables
- Fresh and dried fruit
- Healthy fats such as olive oil and flaxseed
- Soy-based foods
- Food supplements
Recognizing that poor eating habits developed prior to surgery can trigger a weight gain cycle may help you stick with a healthy eating plan. Nutritional counseling can help you take control of unhealthy food behaviors so that you won't have to worry about gaining the weight back after liposuction.
Bottom Line
When you've taken the steps to recontour your body with liposuction, a well-planned maintenance program will help you keep your new figure. Your plastic surgeon will help you create a comprehensive meal plan for each stage after treatment, but making a commitment to a healthy lifestyle will be critical to your success with the liposuction procedure.

Jersey City Food Truck Offers Super Sandwiches
From NJ.com: – JERSEY CITY, NJ –
It's not easy being a food truck operator in Jersey City. Having the state's best gourmet or specialty food truck scene apparently is something some city officials are not proud of, because they're sure making it tough for the truck owners to operate.
Two years ago, the trucks were parked at Hudson and York streets, near Exchange Place. They were bounced from the spot on several occasions when nearby restaurants complained. Now, they're parked several blocks north on Hudson, but their days are apparently numbered because meters are being installed and meter-feeding will not be allowed.
Too bad. There's first-rate food coming out of those trucks, which include two favorites, the Taco Truck and Krave.
One of the newer and more unlikely additions is Home by the Range. Several years ago, Will Imre was a research analyst for a financial data service. But a 10-day apprenticeship at fabled Santillo's Brick Oven Pizza in Elizabeth and several courses at the Institute of Culinary Education in New York convinced him cooking could be both passion and career.

I'll try to keep this short and relatively unspammy...
The NVIDIA GTC has been expanded this year to include special tracks for both mobile and game development
A sample of cutting edge development sessions includes:
• OpenGL 4 and Beyond for Game Developers
• Porting Source to Linux: Valve's Lessons Learned
• Bringing PC and Console Games to Mobile
• Post Mortem: GPU Accelerated Effects in Borderlands 2
Check out the entire line-up of game development sessions by clicking here.
We understand that the GTC is just before GDC, but keep in mind that the GTC is a great opportunity to meet the same engineers as at GDC without competing against thousands of others for their attention. In addition, we've tried to keep most of the GTC tracks uniquely different from the GDC tracks, so you won't get a sense of deja vu at GDC
We would love to see you there, so register today to attend! As an added bonus, use code GM10ND for an additional 10% off the published price.

The Royal family and attendants all appeared in a change, Celes arrived at CarletouiHcraf* on Sfttatday ftight from On Sattrrday morning one of the King's Mef-fengers arrived at the Duke of Leeds's Office, Whitehall, with letters from Earl Gower, his Majefty's Ambaffador at Paris. On the arrival of tlis Meflenger a Council was fumraoned, which met at one o'clock at the Duke of Leeds's Office, and was attended by Mr. Pitt, the two Secretaries of State, Duke of Richmond, and Earl of Chatham. At half paft three o'clock the Council broke on, when the refult was forwarded to the King. "I^rercfay the three battalions of-Guards ordered for foreign fervice were relieved from further attendance on the King's duty ; fo that they j have now their time unoccupied to prepare for their departure. If we may judge from circumftances, the Guards are going to Gibraltar, and not to the Weft-Indies. No order has been given to the artillery to furnifh them with battalion guns, which would Certainly have been the cafe, if they had been going on any other than garrifon fervice. The detachment of light dragoons from the five regiments are certainly going to India; for the officers of the 19th, now in England on leave of abfence, are ordered to join them, and no oS-cers from their refpeftive regiments are to accompany them. The war with Tippoo Saib renders this draught �eccffary. The -exatt amount we have not yet heard, but we believe it is no more than 60. Saturday the levies from the foot guards de-fsgned for foreign fervice were drawn out on the parade in St. James's park. The men are going to have their hair cut clofe previous to marching for embarkation : Hence t.ieir delUnation for a warm climate is no longer equivocal. An exprefs was received on Saturday from the Mediterranean. An official account is come over by this conveyance of the French men of war fitting out at Toulon. Two expeditions of the. very iaft importance are now in embryo, with a force of fuch magnitude as this country hardly ever tore witnefs to. By thefe, in cafe of a war, the Spaniards may lofe their dominion in South America, and France will be wholly ejefted from their prefent Oriental pofTeflions. The funds of France are a moll extraordinary proof how tranfvtory is popular fame. When M. Neckar departed from France, the loan of 1784. was at a di/count of 10 i-half per cent. It now bears a pr.mium of 2 i-half per cent, and yet his departure was announced as the certain sera of their bankruptcy. The houfjs of the,Clergy in Paris have fold, rapidly, and bave, upon an average, brought one third more than the valuation. The Cluney M'Pherfon,,Duncan M'Pherfon, from London fqr Seville, ran on flibre near Kingf-down, leak;/, where ihe took fire, and was totally deftroyed.

How to Build a Business Warren Buffett Would Buy: The R.C. Willey Story
by Jeff Benedict
Product Description
Any entrepreneur will love and appreciate this fascinating story sharing the life lessons that Bill Child learned as he built R. C. Willey, a highly successful furniture business eventually bought out by the legendary Warren Buffett. Lessons on leadership, frugality, honesty, integrity, innovation, and customer service will inspire and motivate readers. How do you take a good company and make it one that billionaire Warren Buffett would buy? The blueprints are in the footprints of a remarkable man: Bill Child.
Here are just a few of Bill's philosophies:
- Character and work ethic carry more weight than resumes.
- Change is an essential ingredient for success in the retail industry. Companies that don't adapt don't last.
- Delegation is vital to growing a small business. True delegation only exists when the leader trusts his people enough to allow them to perform their responsibilities without constant interference.
By Scott, Submitted on 2015-02-25
This is a jewel of a book for anyone interested in business, entrepreneurship, or dreaming of success in life. I ended up reading the book in four lunch-breaks and could hardly put the book down. The story follows the 60-year history of the R.C. Willey company from a door to door, one-man show all the way up to a corporation that is currently valued at over a billion dollars. Throughout the book I saw the wisdom of combining unwavering ethics and principles with the best business practices and the amazing results it produces. The most encouraging part is that you can do it all without any of your employees having to work on Sunday!
There were so many ups and downs in this unfolding story that it made it almost impossible to set down. Bill Child faced so many obstacles, challenges, and discouraging circumstances in managing R.C. Willey and showed such courage and tenacity that he deserves the success that he has achieved. It gives me hope that I can overcome the impossible set-backs that I will surely be faced with in life.
Despite knowing that Buffet was going to enter the scene at some point, the story was only halfway over in 1995 with some of the most exciting years and chapters to follow. Bill and Sheldon Child took the company from rags to riches during their 50 years at the helm of the company and I look up to both of these men immensely. I had the privilege of meeting and interviewing Bill Child a few years ago and he is as down to earth and kind as the way he is described in this book.
You will also enjoy the privilege of getting to know Warren Buffet, one of the wealthiest and most giving men alive, through the eyes of close friends. Author Jeff Benedict tells a great story and Bill Child lives a good life - what better combination can you ask for? I will read this book again and again and hope that you will too.
By B, Submitted on 2015-02-25
As someone who dreams of working in an ultra competitive business world, this book brought hope that my personal character makes the business.
I loved hearing the background stories about Bill Child's experiences and the hard work he endeavored to do.
Great story and message for any business men or women... including those who just graduated!
By Toni, Submitted on 2015-02-25
Great examples of a healthy work ethic sometimes, hard to find these days. I was amazed at the power of sticking by one's beliefs about Sunday worship observance and not opening the store on that day. What blessings followed! A great positive example and a real-life story about what it means to work and stick to your beliefs.

Belding softball continues success in 2013
BELDING — Belding's softball team did it again in 2013.
The Redskins went to the Division 2 quarterfinals for the fifth season in a row this year, and coach Mikayla Linebaugh loved it.
Linebaugh called the season "amazing."
"I was so excited for the kids," she said. "I thought we had a lot of improvement coming together defensively. We lost a lot with Kyleigh (Linebaugh), Morgan (Hill) and Mindy (Reminga). I wasn't sure who would step up in the circle."
Belding ended up 19-9, but early on it didn't seem like they would do that well, struggling through their non-conference schedule.
"The season was such a crazy start with the weather and all the cancelations," Mikayla Linebaugh said. "I think it was kind of a weird start for everybody. But I thought the team came together when we found out the lineup and that's where we had our success. I'm very upfront with their role and once they know that and accept it everybody starts to connect on our team and it shows."
Linebaugh mentioned two players who stepped up this season in Greta Wilker and Caitlyn Alkire.
"I think Greta Wilker was huge in our lineup," Linebaugh said. "She's young as a freshman but she had great catching skills and our defense was stronger with her at third. Her bat came on, I ended up moving her up to second in the lineup because I wanted her to get at-bats. She was dualing, doing track and softball. I thought as a freshman she carried herself very well.
"The other is Caitlin to fill the pitching spot was huge. She did well. She wasn't a huge strikeout pitcher and she pitched strikes and got a lot of ground-ball outs. Her bat was improved also She really shined this year after not being one of the frontrunners in the past and she stepped up to be a leader this year."
However, Linebaugh loses Alkire to graduation, so just like the beginning of the season Linebaugh is having to search for a starting pitcher.
"We've got a lot of leadership coming back," she said. "We've got Hannah (Linebaugh) and Rachel (Hunt) coming back as four year starters. A year from now we're going to lose a good chunk of the team, but there's talent coming up. We're excited to see who steps in the circle and with the defense and see how far we can go again."

The Band LyricsUnfaithful servant
I hear you leavin' soon in the mornin'
What did you do to the lady
That she's gonna have to send you away?
Unfaithful servant
You don't have to say you're sorry
If you done it just for the spite
Or did you do it just for the glory?
Like a stranger you turned your back
Left your keys and gone to pack
Bear in mind who's to blame an' all the shame
She really cared, the time she spared and the home you shared
Unfaithful servant
I can hear the whistle blowin'
Yes, that train is comin' and soon you'll be goin'
Let us not bow our heads for we won't be complainin'
Life has been good to us all even when that sky is rainin'
To take it like a grain of salt is all I can do, it's no one's fault
Makes no difference if we fade away
It's just as it was, it's much too cold for me to stay
Goodbye to that country home
So long to a lady I have known
Farewell to my other side
I'd best just take it in stride
Unfaithful servant
You'll learn to find your place
I can see it in your smile
And yes, I can see it in your face
The memories will linger on
The good old days they're all gone
Oh, lonesome servant can't you see
We're still one and the same, just you and me

For those new to the film, THE TOMB follows Ray Breslin (Stallone) who is the world's foremost authority on structural security. He's analyzed every high security prison and has gained a vast array of survival skills. But all Ray's ingenuity and knowledge are about to be put to work in the most challenging test he's ever faced: escaping from the master prison of his own design. Schwarzenegger, in the role of Church, plays a complex inmate with multiple shades of grey. He's the guy who fights to keep the prisoners from losing their humanity in their darkest hour as they struggle together to stay alive.
The Tomb will be directed by Mikael Hafstrom (1408, The Rite) and will be shot in Louisiana this spring for presumably a release sometime in 2013.
So what do you guys think of the addition of Caviezal?

A new, energy efficient desalination plant with an expected production capacity of 30,000 cubic meters per day will be built in the city of Al Khafji to serve 100,000 people. KACST plans to power the plant with the ultra-high concentrator photovoltaic (UHCPV) technology that is being jointly developed by IBM and KACST; this technology is capable of operating a CPV system at a concentration greater than 1,500 suns. Inside the plant, the desalination process will hinge on another IBM-KACST jointly developed technology, a nanomembrane that filters out salts as well as potentially harmful toxins in water while using less energy than other forms of water purification.
According to KACST scientists, the two most commonly used methods for seawater desalination are thermal technology and reverse osmosis, both at a cost ranging from 2.5 to 5.5 Saudi Riyals per cubic meter. By combining solar power with the new nanomembrane, the goal of this project is to significantly reduce the cost of desalinating seawater at these plants.
"Currently, Saudi Arabia is the largest producer of desalinated water in the world, and we continue to invest in new ways of making access to fresh water more affordable," said Dr. Turki Al Saud, vice president for research institutes, KACST. "Water has the first priority in the Science, Technology and Innovation Plan of the Kingdom, overseen by KACST."
Because over 97 percent of the world's water is in the oceans, turning salt water into fresh water cost effectively and energy efficiently offers tremendous potential for addressing the growing worldwide demand for clean water. One of the most efficient means of desalination is reverse osmosis. But there are obstacles to unlocking this reserve -- principally bio-fouling, degradation by chlorine and low flux challenges. The KACST / IBM joint research focuses on improving polymeric membranes through nanoscale modification of polymer properties to make desalination much more efficient and much less costly.
"Our collaborative research with KACST has led to innovative technologies in the areas of solar power and of water desalination," said Sharon Nunes, vice president, IBM Big Green Innovations. "Using these new technologies, we will create energy-efficient systems we believe can be implemented across Saudi Arabia and around the world."
In February 2008, IBM and KACST signed a multi-year collaborative research agreement, under which scientists from IBM and KACST work side by side at IBM Research labs in New York and California as well as at the KACST / IBM Nanotechnology Centre of Excellence in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. IBM's multi-faceted research with KACST also includes exploring new ways to recycle polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics, commonly used for food and beverage containers.

An audience of more than 26 million people watched the spectacular musical celebration for the Olympic closing ceremony.
Acts such as Take That and the Spice Girls were among the stars who performed at the Olympic Stadium.
Overnight figures showed that at its peak the BBC's audience reached 26.2 million at 9.35pm.
The figure was only slightly down on Danny Boyle's opening ceremony just over a fortnight earlier, which drew 26.9 million at its height.
The event - ending with a breathtaking fireworks display and the flame in the cauldron being extinguished - pulled in 26 million on BBC1, with a further 200,000 watching on a dedicated Olympic channel at the programme's peak.
The average audience for the entire ceremony on BBC1 was bigger than the opening event. Last night it was watched by 22.9 million, compared with the opening event, which had an average of 22.4 million.
BBC1 controller Danny Cohen said: "It has been an absolute privilege to broadcast the London 2012 Olympics on BBC1.
"It's been a phenomenal Games and Team GB's amazing achievements have helped draw huge audiences to BBC1 and put the channel right at the heart of the action.
"We've had fantastic feedback about the quality of the BBC's coverage and all the teams involved deserve huge thanks and praise."
Last night's figures come on the back of huge figures for the blockbuster sporting events during the fortnight of London 2012.
Usain Bolt's 100m final a week ago was the biggest of the games with 20 million tuning in, while 17.1 million watched Mo Farah take the 10,000m gold.
Tom Daley's bronze-winning performance during the 10m platform final on Saturday night pulled in 15.9 million.
The closing ceremony also featured Ed Sheeran covering Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here, with a high wire artist above the stadium recreating the cover image for the band's 1975 album.
Annie Lennox, George Michael, Madness and One Direction were also among the performers.
The BBC said later that including figures for viewers on the HD channel brought the peak audience to 26.3 million.
During the ceremony overnight ratings show BBC1 had four-fifths of all TV viewers.
And the event, which began at 9pm and ended three hours and 20 minutes later, set a new record for UK TV audiences for a closing ceremony. The previous high was Barcelona in 1992 which had an average of 11 million.
The Beijing Olympics in 2008 drew just 5.5 million, despite being screened on a Sunday afternoon.

Source Naturals uses extremely high quality potassium and magnesium aspartate. K-Mag Aspartate is an excellent source of energizing nutrition for athletic activity or fast-paced daily living. Potassium is essential for nerve function, muscle strength, and glycogen formation, among other biochemical processes.
Magnesium plays a key role in over 300 enzymatic reactions, including those involved in the Krebs cycle (the body's main energy production processes), the relaxation of muscle tissue, neurotransmitter activity and hormone regulation. L-Aspartic acid also plays a vital role in energy production and is a major excitatory neurotransmitter.
Suggested Use
1 to 3 tablets daily with a meal.

Removed with L-ornithine what I suspected to be ammonia in the brain
Posted by Prevaileth on May 01, 2015 | Verified Purchase
This product seems to work effectively along with L-Ornithine at removing ammonia build up in the brain. I felt immediate relief - I could actually feel the liquid build up in my brain and it was going no where. It only seemed that L-ornithine taken on itself was pushing it somewhere, but taken with aspartate it felt like all that liquid build up was relieved (overnight as I take it before bed). And it helped me sleep easier to boot. There is no UREA cycle in the brain, so you must supplement to remove or else live with it for the rest of your life. I suffered mental fatigue and cognitive impairment for years, after a bout of drinking "ionised" water. I also had a bad liver at the time. Ionised water is known to exacerbate liver issues (the booklet said don't drink if you have liver problems), and as a result I believe I suffered with ammonia build up.
Great product

This is a great product for the price. This formula is over looked by more expensive products. The tablets are a little rough, but it's not as bad as country life's magnesium tabs I've had in the past. Similar to the OG formula XCell R8 which is not being produced anymore.
Seems to Work

I use this product to regulate heart beat and it seems to work. I was recommended to take Magnesium Aspartate by the cardiologist and this seems to be the closest I can get and it does the trick.

The fullstop on Andrew Hore's test rugby career may shift again.
Suggestions that Saturday's test against the Wallabies would be his All Black swansong have abated as the selectors' search for a replacement hooker continues.
Hore is 35 and does not have a Super 15 contract next season, and with a young family and farming duties beckoning, his international rugby shelf-life is shrinking.
He does not want to leave his Central Otago connections and accepts he is unlikely to have a place in 2015 World Cup plans.
The All Black panel has sifted through a range of younger contenders.
They had Dane Coles as an understudy to Hore and Keven Mealamu, and brought other young hookers Liam Coltman, Rhys Marshall and Nathan Harris, into All Black camps to assess their potential.
The selectors were impressed but not quite convinced any were ready for an upgrade.
Discussions this week will cover several topics - whether Hore has an appetite for another trip to Europe, whether it is wise to take Mealamu as the sole senior man for the set-piece battles, and the readiness of the young brigade for test combat.
There is an argument they all need to be told to condition themselves for a selection shootout in next season's Super 15 series, a result which will be made easier if Hore agrees to another European trip.
Plans are to take 36 players for the four-test expedition to Japan, France, England and Scotland.
Matt Todd has fallen off the contenders' list because of his torn chest muscle injury and others are facing fitness tests before they can be named in the squad.
Crusaders' locks Luke Romano (groin) and Dominic Bird (chest) remain on the cusp. If they are chosen, Steven Luatua can cover lock or Jeremy Thrush may be needed as cover.
Hurricanes' wing Cory Jane has proved his fitness in comeback ITM Cup work for Wellington, and is back with the squad in place of the sabbatical-bound Conrad Smith.
Halfback TJ Perenara is still marginal after the stress fracture in his left leg.
Ryan Crotty and Tom Taylor showed in their cameo Rugby Championship stints they were ready, and wider training group players Frank Halai, Francis Saili, Luke Whitelock and Joe Moody must also be close.
The selectors dropped Victor Vito mid-season and asked him to sharpen his physical impact in the ITM Cup.
They will now decide whether he has succeeded, while scrum coach Mike Cron will be busy evaluating an expanding group of props.
Owen Franks, Charlie Faumuina, Ben Afeaki, Ben Franks and Jeff Toomaga-Allen work mostly on the right hand side of the scrum while Tony Woodcock, Wyatt Crockett and Moody cover loosehead.
Possible tour squad
Israel Dagg, Charles Piutau, Tom Taylor, Cory Jane, Frank Halai, Julian Savea, Ben Smith, Ma'a Nonu, Francis Saili, Ryan Crotty, Daniel Carter, Aaron Cruden, Beauden Barrett, Aaron Smith, Tawera Kerr-Barlow, Piri Weepu, Kieran Read, Victor Vito, Luke Whitelock, Richie McCaw, Sam Cane, Liam Messam, Steven Luatua, Sam Whitelock, Brodie Retallick, Luke Romano, Dominic Bird, Owen Franks, Charlie Faumuina, Ben Afeaki, Keven Mealamu, Andrew Hore, Dane Coles, Tony Woodcock, Wyatt Crockett, Ben Franks.

Vietnamese, US Presidents hold historic talks
At the talks, the two leaders shared the view that Viet Nam-US bilateral ties were developing extremely positively and that their relationship was about to enter into a new arena.
The two sides also agreed to maintain a regular dialogue on economic and commercial ties and promote cooperation in science, technology, education and the settlement of residual concerns that still remain from the Viet Nam War.
The two Presidents were also unanimous in their desire to support the Vietnamese community in the US and use the community to serve as a bridge between the two countries.
President Bush recalled his warm impression of Viet Nam while visiting for the 2006 APEC meeting and thanked the Vietnamese government and people for welcoming him and his wife so warmly and said he was ecstatic about Viet Nam's dynamic economic development and believed that Viet Nam would play an increasingly important role in Asia in general.
The leader of the world's largest economy did say however, that he hoped the Vietnamese Government would become more active in offering incentives for US businesses wishing to invest and operate in Asia's second fastest growing economy.
The US President also praised Viet Nam's efforts on education and thanked the Vietnamese Government and people for their cooperation in the search for American servicemen missing in action from the Viet Nam War.
President Bush concluded by outlaying a US plan to increase assistance to Viet Nam in HIV/ AIDS control and aiding programmes that focus on reducing the impact of Agent Orange/dioxins that were sprayed heavily throughout the country during the war.
At the meeting, President Triet relayed Viet Nam's achievements in both domestic and foreign affairs and said that the country would continue with its foreign policy of supporting independence, diversification and multilateralisation. Viet Nam places a great deal of importance on its relationship with the US for the benefit of both countries and the security and development in Asia as a whole, the visiting President said.
The Vietnamese leader went on to pledge to undertake all endeavours possible to aid the US in locating and repatriating the remains of American soldiers left behind after the war while asking the leader of the world's largest economy to continue with its aid programmes in the Southeast Asian nation.(VNA)

My one percent - a prostate cancer story
From Trevor Machin
I am 52 years old and at this moment I am on my second day at home after a six day stay in hospital. I had a radical prostatectomy a week ago. It was my one percent simply because I felt 100% fit and one percent had to go.
I had prostate cancer.
I am currently fitted with my Portaloo strapped to my leg (catheter). I still have a zip below my naval consisting of 18 teeth. Otherwise I am damn well ok.
My journey to get rid of my one percent started in July 2006. I was lucky in that the company I work for gives us an annual medical. Part of which includes normal blood tests and when you are 50 an option for a prostate blood test to check your PSA.
This was the first time I decided to get mine done.... The result came back at 8.5 and I didn't really panic through ignorance. I didn't know what scale 8.5 was a measure against. I did however agree to re-test later in the year. Come October 2006 I by chance met a friend who had had similar trouble, but had found out after problems with his waterworks. His test had been 14.5 and as he was somewhat older than me had opted for hormone therapy. This rang an alarm bell and prompted me to have a retest sooner than I had planned.
I have never had any symptoms whatsoever. 3rd November 2006 I had my retest which came back with a result of PSA 9.5. Go and see your doctor I was told. I was my usual busy self and dragged my feet until my work doctor told me that sooner rather than later was better.
7th December 2006 I saw my GP who examined me and informed me my prostate felt enlarged and he arranged for me to see a prostate cancer specialist. 20th December 2007 was my first consultation, another finger up my rear end and the same diagnosis as before. An appointment was arranged for after Christmas for a biopsy and ultrasound examination.
More action up my rear end. Ultrasound indicated three shadows. I could see them with some contortion. It took some doing. I was interested. The first biopsy was a bit of a shock and by the eighth I was most certainly sweating. Not a very pleasant experience but bearable.
My results were back by the 10th January 2007. A breeze, I thought. This is only something that happens to other people. I really thought I would go in and come out with a bloody prescription. Not to be. Three out of the eight biopsies were malignant. I had prostate Cancer.
An appointment was arranged for an MRI scan to see whether the cancer was contained within my prostate. MRI was straightforward and I went back for the results which were good, in that the cancer was contained to the left hand side of the prostate. Good news. It felt that way too.
So what were my options? Well, over the last few weeks I had been supplied with copious amounts of information on the best way to go and what the consequences were. I opted for surgery. I felt that even though I was only 52 and very sexually active that I would be happier when my one percent was gone.
This was agreed with my consultant as my best choice due also to the fact that I am fit and healthy, but mainly due to a Gleason score of 8. It was aggressive. This baby was moving fast!!
On the 24th February 2007 I was admitted to hospital for my op. A general and epidural anaesthetic.
Over the last two months I have been on a rollercoaster bigger than any Blackpool could offer. I have had loads of tears, fears and dark times. I have oddly enough laughed also. You have to get though your fear of the unknown. Misconceptions, misunderstandings.
Eventually I really think the word 'cancer' didn't really mean that much to me, I just knew that I had this thing that needed to be gone, my one percent. I sought advice from all over the place.....the internet, friends, people listed on information from the hospital that had had the op done. This was very useful.
Anyway here I am 7 days post op and I am doing absolutely fine. My mind has always tried to be positive. I had a very good consultant surgeon. He was very frank and answered all my questions honestly.
I was three hours in surgery. I was awake all the time from the recovery room. I remember the wonderful nurses waking me every hour for 24 hours monitoring my condition. I had the epidural in for 48 hours. It made my right let a bit like dead meat but overall was a godsend in pain relief. As soon as it was out I was on my feet and gently bobbing around. I was walking a distance of 150 yards within 3 days for my daily paper.
I had a saline drip in for 48 hours also and a good supply of sponge lollies to wet my lips. I had the two body drains removed the day I was discharged.
The journey home was a bit of an ordeal. Everything was pulling south within my groin which was uncomfortable. Emotionally, I was a wreck. I was pleased to be going home. Pleased to get home. Very pleased to see the dog who almost ate me.I had to fight her off.
And so here I am just seven days after. Still very positive. I have made the right informed decision for me. I feel great!! I am able to do very light bits and bobs....tea toast and stuff. My body is telling me when to stop. I will get control of my bladder when my Portaloo is removed.
Impotence is still a concern and only time will tell. I did get nerve saving surgery on the right hand side. So at least I have one set of jump leads in place. We will have to wait and see. I think the thing that blew me away the most during the whole of this experience was peoples' relentless kindness. It comes from the most unexpected places and catches you when you least expect it. I have been reduced to a blubbering wreck many times.
Most of all I have to commend the nurses who looked after me in hospital. Their kindness and professionalism is second to none.
I am happy to be 99 percent and look forward to a long and happy future whatever happens. If I hadn't had that blood test at work things could have been so very different........
Good luck to all who go through the same as me.
Believe me you will be ok.
Well here I am now just over three weeks post radical prostectomy. How am I doing now..........
All in all I am doing quite well. Still progressing well on a daily basis. Last week just 19 days post op I went to get the portaloo removed (catheter). A pretty straightforward process. 4 hours in hospital to see if everything is still working after removal.
Except!! I understand my experience was not the norm! I had the x ray to see that my surgery had healed successfully which it had thankfully. Then came the removal of the portaloo.........
Out of all the last few weeks/months' experiences this little job was to say the least, the most unpleasant of the lot. A delicate area at the best of times, I found the removal/tugging out of the pipe work probably the most painful I have ever had to endure. OUCH! You will get the drift. I am told it was one of the more difficult removals. Little comfort for my nether regions. Tears to your eyes and all that!
Anyway the pain soon becomes but a memory and after downing four coffees and a litre and a half of water, processing it into a papier mashier bottle to be measured I was happily discharged to return in two and a half months time for my first PSA test post op.
My time since my discharge from hospital has taken up a daily routine consisting of the following types of activities.
I am easily able to job about in the house doing various things.
I have taken to walking out each morning to collect the papers. Anything from twenty to fourty minute walks without to much difficulty.
Although I found out almost immediately that breakfast is essential before any walking. It seems my sugar level drops quite a lot in the morning. The effects are that I go light headed (no change there) and very unsteady on my feet.
My water works are generally quite good. I am finding the so called stress incontinence frequent with the getting up and down from seats/chairs. Also when I bend down without thinking.
I am having complete dry nights and have since the portaloo was removed.
As for my other main concern if you refer back a few paragraphs..... Well all I can say is that the literature states about six months although some stories will say much less before things "work". Well I agree with the stories. Not 100% but much better than expected at this time (A big smile) It works!!
Things can only get better. I reiterate.......the whole experience is not a dire as expected.
Get as much information as you can about the procedure that you are getting. I will hopefully keep this updated......

This is a global car for Ford, meaning most of the vehicle is the same in North American- and European-spec, even though the names and powertrains do vary. We quite enjoyed our time with the Fusion's 1.6-liter EcoBoost engine, for example, while Europeans will get to judge the Mondeo as fitted with a 1.0-liter EcoBoost, as well as several diesel options. The Mondeo will, of course, also come in wagon and five-door versions, which is enough to cause certain American car guys no small amount of lust.
- All-new Mondeo makes world debut; striking silhouette informed by new global design language. Driver-focused interior delivers superior craftsmanship, advanced ergonomics and quality materials that rival premium competitors
- Available equipped with award-winning 1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine, all-new Mondeo is expected to deliver best-in-class fuel economy. Five-door, wagon and four-door variants offered, the latter available as first-in-class petrol Hybrid Electric Vehicle
- All-new Mondeo is first model built on Ford's new global CD-segment platform to deliver more driver-focussed, dynamic performance. All-wheel drive diesel powertrain and retractable panoramic roof offered for the first time; as well as segment-first adaptive full LED headlamps
- Segment-first Ford SYNC with MyFord Touch equips all-new Mondeo with an eight-inch colour touchscreen, more voice-control, more connectivity features and a WiFi hotspot for up to five devices
AMSTERDAM, Sept. 6, 2012 – Ford today debuted the stylish all-new global Mondeo at its "Go Further" brand event, to reveal a sleek design and new levels of premium-level interior craftsmanship.
Built on Ford's global CD-segment platform, the refined new version of the Ford flagship will be available as a five-door and wagon – uniquely developed for Europe – as well as a four-door that will also be offered as segment-first petrol Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV).
It will be the first car in its segment equipped with a 1.0-litre powertrain, the 2012 "International Engine of the Year" 1.0-litre EcoBoost petrol engine, to deliver expected best-in-class fuel economy.
"This is the most premium Mondeo we've ever built and the most premium vehicle Ford's loyal European customers have ever been offered," said Stephen Odell, chairman and CEO, Ford of Europe. "It raises the bar in its segment in terms of style, technology and quality."
Ford's new global design language informs the all-new Mondeo's refined, elegant, sporty and highly expressive exterior. The low roofline enhances the sports coupe profile while retaining a spacious and practical interior, and incorporates a retractable panoramic glass roof for the wagon bodystyle.
The lean side-profile is sculpted to convey "visual lightness", while the sophisticated and technical front end design features Ford's new, more prominent trapezoidal grille, a power-dome bonnet and segment-first adaptive, full LED headlamps.
Mondeo is the first Ford to feature headlamps with LED high-beam, low-beam and signal lighting. Quicker to illuminate, more durable and more energy-efficient than traditional filament bulb headlamps, the all-new Mondeo's LED headlamps turn with the steering and adapt beam projection to vehicle speed – providing a greater depth of illumination at high speeds and a wider field of vision at slower speeds.
The interior delivers unprecedented levels of ergonomics and comfort, with superior craftsmanship throughout the driver-focused cockpit. Soft-touch materials, premium finishes and equipment contribute to the most premium Mondeo experience ever.
The all-new four-door Mondeo HEV is Ford's first hybrid passenger car for Europe, and combines a specially-developed 2.0-litre petrol engine with a 35kW lithium-ion battery to provide high fuel economy and low CO2 emissions. For the first time on Mondeo, a diesel all-wheel drive variant will be offered, delivering superior traction, performance and handling.
Mondeo will also offer segment-first SYNC with MyFord Touch a voice-activated in-car connectivity system that delivers an eight-inch colour touchscreen and the ability to act as a WiFi hotspot for up to five devices.
SYNC with MyFord Touch will enable drivers to keep their hands on the wheel and eyes on the road while controlling phone and media player functions from connected devices, as well as the vehicle's climate control, radio and CD-player, and navigation system, using voice commands.
All new Mondeo also delivers the European debut of Ford's rear inflatable seatbelts. These are designed to reduce head, neck and chest injuries for rear-seat passengers. In the event of an accident the belt rapidly expands to disperse crash forces across a body area five times greater than that achieved by a conventional seatbelt.

Happy Halloween, ya'll! Maddux was so excited about Halloween that he woke me up at 3 am today! I finally caved and just turned on the TV around 4. It was a rough morning for me, but he thought it was so much fun. I'm starting to think this is less about teething and more about being "spoiled" from all the teething. Sneaky little guy.
In honor of the holiday, I thought it would be a good idea to make fun of myself on the internet. These days, I giggle to myself when I see girls dressed up in their costumes. But the truth is, I was one of them. I never totally skanked it out, but I got dangerously close. Also, I was a walking cliche. And, okay, maybe I totally skanked it out.
In 2007, I was a doctor, complete with fake glasses and a black dress. Hmm. Also, my friend was Tila Tequila. He wore one of my bras, and it was amazing. Do you want a shot at love? Yes, that's also Dog the Bounty Hunter. Hello, dated pop culture references.
In 2008, I threw on some animal print and fuzzy ears and called myself a cat. I still have this dress, by the way. Why? I don't know. Also, yes, that is David Beckham in the background. This wasn't my room. Mine had a Disney princess poster next to one of a shirtless Zac Efron. It was awesome.
In 2009, I dressed as a sailor. Along with about a million other girls, I'm sure. My costumes always left a lot to be desired when it came to creativity. I still have this costume, too. I am a hoarder. Ryne was a Chippendale, but he wore a shirt and jacket the whole night. Which defeats the purpose of the costume. We sucked at Halloween.
In 2010, I wore a black shirt and cat ears. Less questionable, yes, but also even more boring than ever before. I can't find a picture, but you get the idea. In 2011, I didn't even dress up at all. I was pregnant, nauseous, and was probably dipping a grilled cheese into thousand island dressing while laying on the couch. It was fun times.
In 2012, I skipped a costume again. All the focus was on this little man. Sammy Watkins might go down as Maddux's best costume ever. It also sparked the DIY fire for me. Sure, all I did was stick yarn in a hat. Still counts as a craft, okay?
This year, I stepped it up even more. I made Maddux's costume and my own. I'm pretty much Martha Stewart at this point. Only less of a felon and stuff.
I can't wait to take him Trick-or-Treating for the first time. Mostly to see his reactions, but partially just to eat all of his candy. I'm saving him from himself there, really. Right? Anyway, I better go. This afternoon I have to run two miles and get my pirate on, me matey. Gonna be a busy one!

Stephen Pearson has signed a shortterm offer after a highly effective bank loan spell and that offer was quickly followed through the arrival of Richard Foster from Aberdeen to fill the gap at rightback. The signing of Chris Wooden yesterday, in spite of this, might be the one the fans would be most excited about and with decent valid reason. The massive New Zealand intercontinental is simply the kind of powerhouse City have been crying out for. He'd been scoring desired goals for Birmingham City for the duration of a recent bank loan spell above there and that i absolutely are convinced this signing is one thing of the coup.

Of concern for Tub would be a leg injury to wing Olly Woodburn, who had to be served off the pitch.
