History Ignored, Again - General Re CIO John Gilbert
Posted by: Tannor (IP Logged)
Date: December 3, 2013 09:13PM
John Gilbert CIO of General Re New England Asset Management in the recent December issue of Reflections blasted the Fed for their role in the biggest mess of the financial system that he has seen. He calls Twitter todays lottery winner and vaguely states emerging markets vulnerabilities when the Fed begins to taper. He compares Cisco (of 1999) and Twitter (of today) and the outcomes of irrational exuberance over a long period of time. There are great accompanying charts and the full PDF can be found below. I included a few excerpts that I found interesting.
"Lest one think it does not affect the U.S. and other developed market countries, recall the Asian crisis chronology. Thailand devalued its currency in the summer of 1997 and few outside of Thailand cared. But contracting Asian demand reduced demand for oil, and Russia (whose exports are 80% oil) defaulted in August of 1998. Risk spreads widened, and five weeks later, Long Term Capital Management was insolvent."
"It would seem fair if Twitter were to share. The company's initial public offering was a staggering success, of course. Priced at $26, the stock closed its first day of trading at $45 per share. The company was thus endowed with a market capitalization of $25 billion. The company has no earnings, but who cares. Adding back non-cash charges to produce earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, then adding back the financial value of non-cash employee compensation, the company can be regarded as profitable. Such a number for 2013 may approximate $50 million or so. The company is valued at 500 times such results, which exclude expenses that do have economic value. Correctly accounted, the company makes not a dime. But who cares when circumspection is the investment equivalent of tuberculosis."
"This is a major component of the downside to the Fed's program. They have created a systemic risk in the world financial system for which they take little or no responsibility, because that which happens outside the U.S. is not their assignment. But as custodians of the reserve currency, it ends up that way."

Ripoff Report
Lease Financial GroupNationwide USA
Lease Financial Group or Global Leasing Company business fraud, fake leasing contract, merchant contract cheating Los Angeles, Chicago, New York City Nationwide
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
Lease Financail Group (LFG) advertised low-cost merchant service to customers. But a very expensive credit card leasing contrasct was hiden into the merchant service contract. In my case, the card reader values about $500. But LFG charges monthly $125 leasing fee by the contract. Actual charge is about $140 - $160 very month after unknown "service fees" are added. Since the charge is bundled together with merchant contract. I can not cancell it if the merchant contract is valid. Eventually, I cancelld the service by closing my business account. LFG sued me from NY city. I am currently just replied its sommons. I descibe LFG's businss fraud as following so that others do not get into the trap designed by LFG.
A sales represent (about 30-year-old man) stopped by Hydration Café in City of San Jose, California, on or about November, 2011 to market credit card merchant service. The sales person requested a statement of my previous merchant service in his first visit.
The sales person came back after about a week and told me that my merchant statements had been carefully reviewed by him. He could provide a new merchant service so that I could save at least a hundred dollar credit card transaction service fee each month. Therefore, I decided to sign a new merchant service with him.
The sales person brought merchant service agreement documents. Before signing the documents in his third visit. I asked the sales person if I can cancel the contract. The sale person answered me that "Certainly, you can cancel it at any time with $250 penalty charge". Thereafter, the sale person explained the merchant service to me and I signed the documents. No "equipment lease agreement" was mentioned by the sale person. With my best knowledge, I did not sign any "equipment lease agreement" at that night.
Then, the new merchant service was setup and we received first merchant statement after a month. The total merchant service fee was more expensive than my expectation. Therefore, I carefully reviewed the first statement and found an unknown $145 USD charge.
My wife immediately called merchant service company and she was informed that this charge was equipment lease fee by an equipment lease company. The merchant service gave my wife a Chicago phone number. Thereafter, my wife called the equipment lease company in Chicago to cancel this charge.
But the equipment leasing company informed us that I had signed a "NON-CANCELLABLE" equipment lease agreement. As a result, we could not cancel the lease agreement.
Thereafter, the equipment lease company sent me the lease contract that was "signed by me". It was the first time for me to see the so-called "Equipment Lease Agreement". The sale person did talked about this contract to me. I never reviewed this contract before. But it showed that the contract was signed by me. I was surprised, and realized I unfortunately became a victim of the business fraud.
I immediately denied the lease agreement to the equipment lease company in Chicago. But the equipment lease company in Chicago reject my denial. I request the address and contact information of the sales man who came to my cafe and signed the merchant service with me. But Chicago side rejected to provide any information about the sales man.
I search internet, the equipment (VeriFone OMNI 5100) had price of about $600 USD at that time. It is only $104 USD today in Amazon (amazon.com/Verifone-Vx510le-Credit-Card-Machine/dp/B00C2K8WAQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1403029257&sr=8-1&keywords=VeriFone+OMNI+5100). But the equipment lease company charges $126 basic fee plus other fees so that we paid about $140 - $160 USD each month. How does a machine with value of $104 - $600 obtain monthly lease fee of $140 - $160 USD?. It is obviously a business fraud. My wife and I rejected to pay the bill.
Eventually, a customer service person of the equipment lease company proposed to add 25-cent fee into each transaction that is charged to my customers. As a business owner, I could get extra 25 cents from each transaction and could use this money to pay equipment lease fee.
My wife and I had no choice but accepted this proposal. We have to use credit card processing service every day for our business. If the merchant service is on, equipment leasing were automatically charged from my business account without my permission. Without the equipment, merchant service did not work either. We have to pay penalty to cancel merchant service. It was hard for us to argue at that time.
After we agree to this proposal, a technical support guided my wife to reconfigure the equipment (VeriFone OMNI 5100) to add 25 cents into each transaction.
After we use the service for several months, a few customers began to complain the hidden 25-cent charges in their transactions. A couple of customers warned us that it was illegal to add hidden transaction fee, and we might be sued by the improper business behavior.
Some of my customers become unhappy with the 25-cent charge and I am at the risk of lawsuit. I decided to stop the leasing service.
I have no any knowledge to sign this equipment lease agreement. I deny the agreement until someone proves that the agreement was signed by me in front of him.
The sales person was the only witness who can witness if I signed the contract. I asked the equipment lease company in Chicago and in New York City to provide me the address of the sales person (about 30-year-old man). They denied to provide any information about the sales person.

Jared is your normal guy, behind the wheel of his car when the gas gauge reads empty. So he tries to wake up Miller (who, remember, is your Lazy smartphone) and asks the search engine where the nearest gas station is. First, your lazy phone needs to figure out where you are, and secondly, it incorrectly confuses gas for glass. That kind of mistake can happen with any verbal search, right?
When the phone ends up between two seat cushions, Jared weaves on the road trying to grab his phone, but ends up in a lake. Just then, a Motorola Moto X user (with his handset neatly put up on the car dock) drives by, using Touchless Control to have his phone look up a towing outfit. What we like about the ad is that it shows you one of the phone's new features in a humorous way, while also pointing out why this new feature is so important to you.

Screenwriter Kelly Marcel came late into the process of writing her famously blacklisted script for Saving Mr. Banks (12/13). Original writer Sue Smith had crafted it more as a biopic of Mary Poppins author P.L. Travers but Marcel focused instead on the three-week period in 1961 that Travers came to Disney studios and clashed with Walt Disney (played by Tom Hanks) himself as she collaborated on the nascent screenplay for the proposed film, a 20-year dream of Walt's but also a complete pain-in-the-neck in dealing with the take-no-prisoners Travers played by Emma Thompson. Effortlessly weaving in flashbacks to Travers' childhood and trying to warm her up were just part of the challenge as Marcel explained on the Disney panel at Deadline's THE CONTENDERS event.

It's disappointing Disney Studios did not see fit to showcase Disneyland as it was in the 60's for their new movie "Saving Mr. Banks". Obviously, not a lot of money being spent on the film (except for actor salaries!) Hope it's good none the less.
See "The Boys" if you want the real story on this lady. Great doc on the the Sherman Bros.
I had loved the Mary Poppins book so much as a child that I have never allowed myself to see the Disney-ized, musical film version. I saw SAVING MR. BANKS last weekend and loved it- it's smart, funny and touching – all the things the Mary Poppins books are. Ms. Marcel wrote a wonderful script and John L. Hancock did a wonderful job directing it…the actors (particularly Emma Thompson)are terrific!
Great script marcel has that way of creating an important moment with words can't wait to see what she has down with fifty shade of gray its an exciting time for for the movie bissniss

Record of Telephone Conversation, October 26, 2012 am - Flucelvax
Submission Type: BLA Submission ID: 125408/0 Office: OVRR
Influenza Virus Vaccine
Novartis Vaccines and Diagnostics, Inc.
Telecon Date/Time: 26-Oct-2012 10:00 AM Initiated by FDA? Yes
Telephone Number:
Communication Categorie(s):
1. Advice
Author: TIMOTHY NELLE
Telecon Summary: Correcting problems in Module 2 and 3.
FDA Participants:
Non-FDA Participants:
Trans-BLA Group: No
Related STNs: None
Related PMCs: None
Telecon Body:
The purpose of this teleconference was to discuss the issues with recent updates to Modules 2 and 3 of the BLA eCTD file and Novartis's plans for corrective actions.
CBER's General issues with M3 Update:
- General Issue #1: There are multiple files that share the same file name (e.g., "Quality Information Amendment") under Module 1.11.
CBER initially requested that the Module 1.11 sharing the same file name be renamed to differentiate the documents. NVD explained that this would require resubmitting the documentation. CBER agreed to leave the names "as-is" as this was not a critical issue. Plus, the resubmission of files would require CBER to re-review all the affected files again.
- General Issue #2: The 'status' of files that have been replaced with new versions are still appearing as "current". For an example, please see item 3 below.
NVD agreed and will delete the documents marked as "current" that are no longer valid
- General Issue #3: Files that were originally submitted under Module 1.11 but later moved/copied into other modules, are still indicated as "current" under 1.11. These files should have their 'status' changed to "withdrawn". For example, the "Cleaning Validation Report (doc No: 289146-01) is provided as "289146 – Cleaning Validation Report (b)(4) under Module 3.2.A.1 and "0022 CVR_------------(b)(4)---------------------…" under Module 1.11.
NVD agreed to delete the M1 documents that were relocated to M3. Therefore only 1 version of the document will be indicated as "current"
Some specific problems identified to date:
- Correct specifications for Drug Substance, Drug Product and final container were provided in Module 3 (10/19/12), Amendment 40 (DS: 3.2.S.4.1 page 3, DP: 3.2.P.5.1 page 3, Final container: 3.2.P.5.1 page 4) but out of date specifications were provided in in Module 2 (10/22/12), Amendment 41 (DS: 2.3.S page 43 of 54, DP: 2.3.P page 20 of 33, Final container: 2.3.P page 20 of 33). Please update Module 2 Drug Substance, Drug Product and final container specifications with the same specifications as those provided for Module 3 and submit.
NVD agreed to update the appropriate M2 documents and will resubmit to replace the versions submitted in Sequence 0042
- Document # 294074 (Strategy Paper Determination of Acceptance Limit for Cleaning Validation Based on Process Capabilities) of Amendment 40, Module 3.2.A.1 contains limits based on-(b)(4) standard deviations but information in Amendment 32 proposed using limits -(b)(4) above sample results. Thus, the information in these 2 submissions is contradictory. Please submit correct version.
NVD agreed to delete previous versions that are no longer valid so that the most current documents will be considered "current".
- Both updated (current) and outdated cleaning validation protocols (i.e. 294077, 294078, 294110, 294723) were provided in Amendment 40. Please change the status settings to indicate which versions are 'current' and which have been 'replaced'
Please see discussion under "General Issue #2".
- Endotoxin test ----(b)(4)---- is one of the release tests for --(b)(4)--- in the LRP, but it is not included in the updated --(b)(4)--- release specifications. Please insure that Endotoxin test and specification are listed in the appropriate sections of Modules 2 and 3.
NVD will update appropriate sections of M2 and M3 to reflect Endotoxin testing for the ---(b)(4)---- release
- Mycoplasma in the control cells was added to the LRP protocol; however, the Mycoplasma test in the control cells is not listed in the BLA release specifications (Tables 2.3.S.2.4-4 and 3.2.S.4.1-1). Please correct and submit.
NVD agreed to update M2 appropriately. NVD clarified that Mycoplasma is an in-process control test so it does not belong is 3.2.S.4.1-1, rather it was updated in Sequence 0040 and appended to Section 3.2.S.2.
- Regarding the LRP:
- In the LRP on page 26 of 41 (3.2.R.1-2, amendment 41, 10/22/12), please correct the "Mykoplasma" spelling.
- The LRP submitted in amendment 41 is acceptable; however, we would like you to add the BPL results for the --------(b)(4)-----. Since this will only be for the lots already submitted the results could be added as an attachment to the lot specific lot release protocols.
NVD agreed to update the LRP template to correct the misspelling and include BPL results for the --(b)(4)----. NVD proposes to attach protocol 294885 (submitted in Sequence 0028) to the LRPs. This protocol includes all the test results for the ----(b)(4)----------- utilized for 2012/2013 trivalent bulks submitted to CBER. Brenda Baldwin to determine how to confirm acceptability of attaching protocol 294885 to the Lot Release Protocols and how to submit the data to the LRP's already submitted to the Product Release Branch.

MAC Cham Pale: The Lip GeléesThursday, December 30, 2010
I'm in love with most of MAC's newest collection, Cham Pale. Why? Because the colors are perfect for pale girls like me. Little pops of color that aren't too much color, but keep us from looking washed out.
The Lip Gelées have been seen before, though not in these exact versions. In my experience, MAC's lip gelées tend to be a little bit shinier than the lip glasses, have more shimmer or glitter, and they tend to not last as long on the lip. In addition, I do find them to be quite a bit stickier than the lip glasses. For me, they work best layered over other lippies, such as over lipstick to add a little extra pop. In that manner I use less of the sticky gelée but get a great look.
Bubble Lounge is described as "sparkly pink peach" and Straight to the Head as "sparkly bronze brown." You can see that both are insanely full of shimmer, which made photographing them a bit of a challenge (even without using flash)! There is a bit of color to the base, and the glitter is tinted as well. Both work really well over lipstick, though be careful because if you use too much of the gelée it will look like you've dipped your lips into a ton of glitter.

Great post Christine! :) I'm not pale-skin-toned, but I think these two MAC Cham Pale Lipgelees are super! Do you think it'll go with an olive skin tone? Also, I suggest Labello Pearly Shine and MAC Lipglass in Prrr for pale skin tones, as both of them would look lovely on pale skin! Labello Pearly Shine is a baby pink lip balm (which also works as a gloss!) and MAC Prrr Lipglass is a peach lip gloss. I have used both but personally felt these were meant for pale skin tones.ReplyDelete
I really like MAC's Cham Pale collection, hoping to do a first thoughts post on it soon! :) Was very curious about the line but your review quenched most of my thirst, thanks! :)
Been your follower for quite some time now on both blogger and twitter (@TPPbyrizzie)! :)
I love the sparkle in these, like a dazzleglass with a more pigmented base. They are definitely stickier as they fade and I find that I have sparkles on my lips long after the base color disappears but it doesn't bother me.ReplyDelete
What a coincidence that just yesterday I visited the MAC counter and bought the best lip color system I've ever used. I bought MAC's lip pencil, Pro Longwear Lipcream lipstick, and Creamsheen Glass lip gloss. I picked colors to suit my skin and fashion needs. When I layer these three products on my lips they are moist and look great. Lip products always under perform for me, but not these MAC products. I'm thrilled!ReplyDelete
It seems like it can be so hard to find a lip product that can survive a morning of talking all the time at clinic or the crazy dry environment of the hospital!ReplyDelete
I love those products too Cynthia. I also really like to use different lip stains (MAC has a good one, so does Cover Girl) and then just refresh a lip gloss over top of it. Usually this is a MAC Lip Glass for me, though sometimes it will be just a balm with shimmer like Burt's Bees. I can wander my ICU with my coffee chatting with nurses, residents and families and just swipe at will!
I love comments! Please ask away, provide info on how you liked something, etc. Note that spam, comments with random links (which I count as spam), anything not in english (again, spam) and comments that are completely unrelated to anything will all be deleted.

Her ear has been another story. I didn't realize how extensive the work was going to be. They went in from behind her ear to fix it. They found that the hole was much bigger than they expected and had to patch about 70% of her eardrum so they're hoping it will take. We won't know if it was successful until her next hearing test in a few weeks. She has been in a lot of pain with her ear... the first night they had a huge bandage on it and that was really uncomfortable for her. It was a long night. Once they removed that, it was SO much better but she's still in pain with it and lets me know about every 15 minutes that her ear hurts. :( She's on around the clock pain meds still at this point but it's not really doing any good that I can tell. Hopefully time will help heal.
Here are a few pictures from the hospital...
In Pre-op waiting to go back...
Post-op in a room, trying to eat. She HATED that thing on her ear.
Friday morning - bandage off!! SO much better!
She still has small steri-strips behind her ear. One more battle scar. *sigh*
Thanks for all the prayers!! The other kids were great and had fun with friends while I was gone. So thankful they were able to step in and hang out with them. Now onto full recovery.... I'll post again when we get test results!!

Claire McCaskill – or rather, her husband -- has bought another plane. But this time, she's taking steps that she hopes will prevent another political uproar. Any flights that she takes on it will be totally on her own dime. And St. Louis County's property taxes will be paid – and on time, she says. Still, the news has the potential of becoming another political controversy. The Missouri Republican Party already is paying close attention.

The Lohans Pretend to Be a Family
While Lindsay's out and about doing her thing, her mom, younger sister and brother are hamming it up for reality TV. The three of them smiled big as they picked out pumpkins to celebrate upcoming Halloween festivities, all the while being filmed for their family's reality show. From Hello! magazine:
"It's about empowering women to be successful single mothers," says the Lohan matriarch about the so-far untitled show which began lensing this week. "About being in the limelight without compromising motherhood."
Wow, that sounds like the exact opposite of what Dina Lohan actually stands for. Poor kids. You know they have to be happy that their mom is at least pretending to have some kind of mothering skills when the cameras are around. Meanwhile, here's Linds. Still waiting for the Great Pumpkin.

"reign in blood"
Since: May 09
#1 Jan 9, 2013
DEAR AMY: I have been married for 20 years. During much of that time, my husband has accused me of sleeping with some of the men I've worked with. Though I am friends with my co-workers, I have never been unfaithful.
I have come to discover my husband has been having sexually explicit conversations with a girl he knew from high school. I have found his profile on dating sites listing him as "single and looking for a commitment."
I am unsure if he has been having affairs all this time and has been blaming me to lessen his own guilt. How should I approach this, or should I just cut my losses and not look back? I have tried to pretend there isn't an elephant in the room, as we still have one child at home, but I have a hard time looking at him.-- Wondering, not Wandering
DEAR WONDERING: If you chose to cut your losses, what would that process be like? Would you leave a note for your husband and child on the kitchen table, and "Thelma and Louise" it in your Mustang convertible? After 20 years, you have to deal with your marriage, even if you ultimately choose to leave it.
I think it's probable, if not likely, that your husband has created a smoke screen of cheating accusations in order to obscure his own behavior. You could start a conversation by taking that elephant in your living room out for a little stroll. Reply to one of his online dating profiles.
"You're seeking commitment? Awesome! So am I!" you can say. Then you can take your conversation to the office of a professional marriage counselor.
DEAR AMY: Our daughter (who is a freshman in high school) has told us that she is physically attracted to girls as well as boys. She thinks she may be bisexual, as she currently has a "crush" on a girl. She has joined the Gay-Straight Alliance at school and enjoys hanging out with new friends who are gay. She also has been active in theater and choir for several years and knows gay people from those activities.
I am OK with her having those friendships, but I am not comfortable with her pursuing same-sex physical relationships at her age.
If she decides to live this lifestyle as an adult, we will certainly continue to love and support her. How do we approach the next four years of high school relationships?-- Puzzled Parents
DEAR PUZZLED: Sexual awareness, acceptance and ongoing sexual education should be an important part of every thoughtful parent's playbook.
I'm confused (and your daughter will be too) about your definition of unacceptable sexual behavior. If same-sex sexual relationships during high school make you uncomfortable, would your daughter having a sexual relationship with a boy be OK with you? If not, you should definitely let her know. Speak the truth -- often -- and with honesty and affection. And listen more than you talk.
There are very good reasons not to become sexually intimate before you are mature enough to handle it. The emotional intensity, for one thing, can be overwhelming. The risk of pregnancy and STDs is very real. You sound like very thoughtful people, and it is great that your daughter is so open with you about what she is thinking and feeling. Reach out to PFLAG ( pflag.org ) for more information about how to parent your daughter well. And realize that her sexuality is not a "lifestyle" but very much part of her core identity. Her sexual identification may change through time, but this is less a choice than a very human process.
DEAR AMY: "Tired" was a 12-year-old girl who complained that her parents made her do too much housework on the weekends -- and were never satisfied. Years ago when I lived next door to your mother, she and I agreed that the best reason to have kids was to have someone to help with the chores.-- Former Neighbor
DEAR NEIGHBOR: My mother was a character who taught us to break up the chores with a good book. I miss her.

1- I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long Like a worn-out recording of a favorite song So while she lay there sleepin', I read the paper in bed And in the personal columns there was this letter I read
'If you like Pina Coladas and getting caught in the rain If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain If you like making love at midnight in the dunes on the cape Then I'm the love that you've looked for write to me and escape'
2- She's 14, she doesn't yet know what she wants. Tell her to quit the Gay-straight alliance. They're filling her head with confusing thoughts and causing her to question what she's all about. This is why I'm opposed to such organizations, especially for young children.

LW1: I actually like Amy's idea(even thought she took forevr to get to it). Create your own fake profile on the dating site and respond to him. Get a little dirt for divorce court.
LW2: "I am OK with her having those friendships, but I am not comfortable with her pursuing same-sex physical relationships at her age."
So does that mean you're ok with hetero PHYSICAL relationships at her age?
Sidenote: who here knew any out of the closet gays in HS? There were no openly gay kids in my HS. I can't say that I ever knew any openly gay people until my 2nd post college job.

"Then you can take your conversation to the office of a professional marriage counselor." No, Amy. Once the guy is advertising on a dating site, it's over, you ninny.
L2: AAARRRRGGGHHHH. "decides to live this lifestyle"????
You need to go to pflag.org and learn a few things about gay people. Do NOT talk about this with your kid until you do.

There were a few lesbian couples I knew of in my high school (I graduated 1995). My husband, who graduated 1992, had several people in his class who were out during junior and particularly senior year.
I went to high school in Illinois, and my husband went to high school in Indiana. If you look at it percentage-wise, ironically he knew more people who were out ... my class had ~500 students, and I knew of 4. His class had ~120 students, and I think there were 6 who were out in high school.
#9 Jan 9, 2013
And another thought in addition ... in 1995, my high school had a rule that (1) you had to bring a date to prom, and (2) someone of the same sex did not count as a date.
My husband's high school did not any rule like that. In fact, he "took" his best male friend to prom (because they'd both just broken up with their girlfriends).
It's kind of funny that his high school in Indiana in 1992 was more progressive than my high school in Illinois in 1995.

By who? Other impressionable youths? She joined a gay straight alliance at school. Who exactly are you afraid of swaying her? The gay boogey man?
#12 Jan 9, 2013
Who you are attracted to on that level is a deep and strong instinct. And having had a lot of interaction with younger kids in recent years due to my son, one that may be expressed/noticed very early in life. My 6-year-old has two male friends who, if they don't end up being gay men, I'm going to be somewhat surprised about that. And both of them are kids with very traditional families.
But given that I have had to give my son multiple lectures on when it's appropriate to tease, chase, and kiss the girls, I'm pretty sure he's going to end up a straight male. Oh, I hope he decides that girls have cooties soon ...
#13 Jan 9, 2013
Not me, that's for sure, but I was in high school 63-67. Didn't meet anyone I suspected of being gay until college and din't meet anyone who was out until 1971. When was Stonewall?

LW1: I can guarantee there is a lot you dont know about him. Hes almost certainly been cheating for a long time. Open your eyes and decide what you want to do knowing this.
Not only that, but it must also suck to be in a relationship with someone who is so accusatory, when you havent done anything. I would cut bait. This one is defective.
LW2: I think having relationships in those years are good practice for later in life. They are like relationships light.
I can understand not being crazy about it, because it surely is likely to bring all sorts of unwanted attention both to you as her parents and to her, but I think you should support your daughter. Sexual orientation is not something one can control. Who you fall in love with or not in love with is not something you can control.
I dont understand why folks who are gay or bisexual should have to wait until they are adults to start having relationships. It doesnt seem fair or healthy to me. Hopefully in 20 or 30 years this will be run of the mill.

Maybe you were swayed, but there was no way I was interested in dating boys or experimenting with boys, at any age.
I don't think sexual orientation is something that can be swayed. You are either open to it or you are not.
#17 Jan 9, 2013
The only type of people I could see that "swaying" in any manner are those who have attractions to people of both sexes. So, someone ends up identifying as gay rather than bisexual. Not really seeing a problem.
United States
#18 Jan 9, 2013
I'm bisexual, and I probably would have realized it a lot sooner if my parents were supportive of that sort of thing and there had been a GSA in my high school.
As it was, I crushed on and dated a few guys and secretly read books like Annie on My Mind.
If that girl's not actually bisexual, she'll figure it out, but there's no harm in her being around open-minded people. Women tend to be more situational and open-minded (which doesn't actually change our orientation, just makes us more open to discovering it and less likely to call ourselves lesbians if we're still attracted to men).

"No child should have to pay for her father's sins." Tell that to Paul Maguire (Nicolas Cage), a businessman with some apparently serious skeletons whose teenage daughter is swiped by masked thugs one night. He goes after said bad guys with malice aforethought in Rage, an action thriller with much gunplay and, well, rage. Rachel Nichols, Max Ryan, Michael McGrady, Peter Stormare and Danny Glover co-star in the Hannibal Pictures/Patriot Pictures film from director Paco Cabezas. James Agnew & Sean Keller wrote the script. It's available on demand June 10 and in theaters July 11 via RLJ/Image Entertainment. Here's the trailer:
Hot Trailer: Nicolas Cage In 'Rage'
11 Comments
Boring, ultimately pointless movie.
How deep is Hell? THIS deep. If this is a Hannibal Classic, I wonder what their regular films are like? Snuff Films? This is why the movie business is in danger from producers who only want to make a buck and need to be in another business. For the good of all of us. And them. PLEASE STOP.
From the guys who watched TAKEN and were like… "What if we made this movie, but way worse, and with NICK CAGE in it!? " comes… RAGE.
Wow what a piece of garbage. Spanish director who apparently doesn't speak English. Local hires over acting. Nicolas Cage laconic and trying not to act, acting circles around the Alabama locals. Holy hell does Nic need new agents.
Man, I haven't seen a Nic Cage movie in a while! Remember Raising Arizona? Leaving Las Vegas? Good stuff.
Looks cool.
Soooo… Taken?
The movie wasn't made for you two, but I do know there's another Traveling pants of the Sisterhood in the works – so there you go…
After he made JOE, I was worried there for a second that Nic Cage wouldn't do anything except make compelling cinema that featured interesting characters and an intriguing storyline.
Why does this exist?
The idea of father going after kidnapped daughter is almost as unoriginal as people comparing every kidnapping film to Taken. The film was surprisingly good, but dark and brutal. One of Nic Cages better films as of late, but not a feel good film, and people like to feel good.

Re: 2013 Opening Game
Since it was Pitt in 2010, Cincy in 2011 and Bill Belicheck prefers to have enough time to study film on the Ravens offense to see what changes/improvements Caldwell will make, that only leaves the Packers as the option.
The angle the NFL will run of course is 2 Super Bowl winning QBs/teams going head to head.

Re: 2013 Opening Game"A lot" is a two word expression denoting a great deal or greatly, as in "I like sunshine a lot." "Alot" is a lovable imaginary grammar monster. You can love a lot; you can love an alot; you can love alots a lot; but they are not the same thing.

Re: 2013 Opening Game
Should be Packers or Pats. Steelers maybe.
Doubful it's Texans because I'm still not sure if their national profile is high enough for that kind of showcase.
I'm still kind of nervous about getting screwed out of the prime time home opener again though. I can totally see the NFL using the O's homestand as an "excuse" for sending them to Pittsburgh or Dnever or even Chicago.
And if that happens..... nothing to do but SMH.

Re: 2013 Opening Game
I have seen several suggest that the currently scheduled 7:05 Orioles game be moved to 12:35....but I don't think it is that easy, since Camden Yards shares the same parking lots with M&T...as well as other services, such as food service staff, security, etc.
A MLB game can easily go 4 hours...so unless the Ravens are prepared to tell parking pass owners, tailgaters, etc., that they cannot get to their spots until 5:00 or later, I don't think it is as easy as "just move the Orioles to a day game".
More likely, I think they would need to make Friday a day/night double-header...but that involves getting approval from the teams involved..and that can be tricky, too.
It's a nice problem to have, but it should be interesting to see how it all plays out...

Re: 2013 Opening Game
The most obvious matchup would be the Pats. Rematch of the AFC championship game that will still be fresh.....in the minds of the Pats at least. Nothing like starting the NFL season with a rivalry game because that's what the Pats have become in recent years. The league will probably save both of our games against Pitt for two additonal prime time slots.
Re: 2013 Opening Game
We got 3 home prime time games in the first month of the this season.
I think next year, if I had to take a guess at our prime time schedule it would look something like this:
Week 1 - Thurs Night - Patriots
Week 16 - Sunday Night - Steelers
in between:
Green Bay at home
@Cincy (thursday nighter)
@Denver (MNF)

I hope it's the Patriots so Joe Flacco can go straight back to burning them. Flacco is going to have 4+ touchdown passes and 300+ yards in the season opener. Mark my words. And if you think this is hot air? Go check my bold prediction thread.

Ibrahimovic's double also moved him one place behind Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo in this year's Champions League top scorers chart with 10 goals. The flamboyant striker is also top scorer in French Ligue 1 with 26 goals under his belt, nine clear of teammate Edinson Cavani. As well as succeeding in Europe, PSG also boast a sublime run of form in the league. Unbeaten in their last 10 matches, conceding just six goals in the process, PSG are eight points clear of second place AS Monaco with 10 games to go.
Meanwhile the same can't be said for Bayer Leverkusen. Former Liverpool centre half, Sami Hyypia, now in charge at the BayArena, is now 90 minutes away from a humiliating exit from the Champions League, which he famously won with the Merseysiders in 2005 against AC Milan in Istanbul.
Leverkusen's league form is less to be desired, winless in their last four and having won just three of their last 10 games. They currently sit third in the German Bundesliga, four points behind second place Borussia Dortmund and 24 points behind leaders Bayern Munich. On the back of this, Leverkusen will just be playing for pride in France, and security on a top four finish in their respective league will be their main objective.
KICK-OFF: 7:45pm
Bayer Leverkusen 0 PSG 4 (Matudi, Ibrahimovic 2, Cabaye)
In six of PSG's last seven Champions League games, there have been over 2 goals.
PSG are unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 Champions League games.
30 year old striker, Stefan Klebling is Leverkusen's leading scorer with 10 goals this season.
Midfielder Simon Rolfes is Leverkusen's leading scoere in the Champions League this year with three goals.
Draw- 4/1
Bayer Leverkusen- 8/1
PSG's Zlatan Ibrahimovic's wonder strike against Bayer Leverkusen at the BayArena in the first leg is one of the goals of this year competition that has caught everyone's eye. The Swede's second of the night was picture perfect after his left footed volley hit the top right hand corner of the net to make it 3-0 before half time.

Ah, Love/Hate Relationships
(A customer calls our restaurant over a supposed sandwich issue…)
Customer: "Yeah, I think someone spit or drooled in my sandwich."
Me: "Oh? I'm sorry to hear that sir. Did you see the employee spit in your sandwich?"
Customer: "It was the guy with the green hair. Well, I think. My fiancee saw him do it."
Me: "I'm sorry to hear that, sir. Bring the sandwich in and we'll replace it or issue you a refund."

Firefighters, medics rescue injured driver after 150-foot fall
A passing hiker saw the crash and called the fire department
MILL VALLEY, Calif. — Calif. firefighters and paramedics rescued a driver who fell 150 feet off a cliff over the weekend.
The unidentified driver did not sustain any life-threatening injuries, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
Fire crews had to use chainsaws to cut through heavy brush to get to the driver. Responders then put in the driver in a rescue basket and brought him back to the road using a rope and pulley system.
Paramedics took the motorist to the hospital where he is expected to recover.
A hiker had seen the crash occur and called for help. Firefighters say they don't know what caused the crash but said the roadway was wet during the time of the incident.

As part of its commitment to use recyclable materials in manufacturing auto parts, Ford of Europe Research Center in Aachen, Germany, investigating a new plastic-wood composite, innovative, so-called liquid wood. The new material is assessed in a three-year project, which began in May 2009. The project was founded in technologically innovative program, developed in the German region of North Rhine - Westphalia.
Wood processing liquid is derived from rubber production procedure. The compound of wood and plastic to prevent absorption of water and, therefore, increases the durability of the material. The fact that this process can be used untreated wood or wood scraps, make application in one environment beneficial.
Another advantage: the new processing technology improves fixation of wood fibers and insulates unpleasant odors. Therefore, the material can be used inside cars.
Another area where wood could be used a liquid is the engine compartment, the support components such as battery. Previous analysis showed that the liquid is recycled wood extremely efficient because the material can be reprocessed up to five times. Therefore, the balance of emissions of carbon dioxide is almost null. So far, liquid wood was used to terraces high quality of housing and building panels which do not require casting.
Using recyclable resources has a major role in Ford's strategy for the environment. The objective is to continuously increase the proportion of raw materials in developing new models. At present, about 290 components are derivatives of recyclable resources, such as cotton, wood, flax, hemp, jute fiber and natural rubber.
Among the project partners include the University of Paderborn, materials and equipment manufacturers and organizations belonging to the packaging industry. German State North Rhine-Westphalia funds involve about 400,000 euros to develop the process of research, a significant proportion of the total budget involved, over 1 million.

In a bid to unlock the Apple (AAPL) iPhone belonging to one of the San Bernardino, Calif., shooters, the FBI has turned to Israeli digital forensics firm Cellebrite, according to a number of media reports Wednesday.
Reuters said that the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper in Tel Aviv was the first to report that Cellebrite was working with U.S. law enforcement to unlock the device. Cellebrite provides mobile forensic software.
Executives at Cellebrite and Apple have declined to comment on the reports. So have FBI officials.
Apple is engaged in a legal battle with the U.S. Justice Department over a judge's order that it write new software to disable pass-code protection on the iPhone that the shooter used. The ensuing legal fight has become a lightning rod for a broader debate on data privacy vs. security.
Led by CEO Tim Cook, Apple had refused to create code to unlock the phone, saying that doing so would create a "back door" to bypass its security protections and thus threaten the personal data of millions of iPhone users. Apple says that the government is overstepping its bounds by ordering Apple to unlock the phone.
But the case between Apple and the FBI could come to an abrupt end if Cellebrite can unlock it.
Apple and the FBI were set to face off in court on Tuesday, but on Monday a federal judge agreed to the government's request to postpone the hearing after U.S. prosecutors said that a "third party" had presented a possible method for opening an encrypted iPhone without Apple's help.
Cellebrite signed a sole-service contract with the FBI in 2013 to provide data-extraction service, according to Buzzfeed.
Cellebrite says on its website that it can obtain data from Apple phones that use the iPhone's most recent operating system. A case study on the Cellebrite site shows that the company has worked with U.S. law enforcement to unlock phones, including an LG phone for the Tacoma, Wash., police department.
A subsidiary of Japan's Sun Corp., Cellebrite has its revenue split between two business segments: technology for mobile retailers and a forensics system that law enforcement, military and intelligence use to retrieve data hidden inside mobile devices, Reuters said.

I figured I'd keep this diary for Sally, so I can get all of my thoughts strait in regards to her issues, and how I plan to fix them.
To begin, I'll recap slightly what I have discovered since first bringing her home five days ago-
Her coat condition is poor. She appears to have several hot spots on her rear, and a small bald patch on her back that looks like it might have come from a puncture wound. She also has bald patches on her elbows and feet.
Her current diet is Purina Veterinary Diets EN GastroENteric. This is, of course, a poor quality food, that is no doubt adding to her poor coat and hot spots. I am in the process of transitioning her to Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream. She would probably benefit from an oatmeal bath as well, but I have not yet determined how willing she would be to have that done.
She has many behavioral issues. Having lived on the streets, she has no basic house manners. She is house and crate trained, however, thanks to the kind vet staff where she was staying.
She is not aware of boundaries. While I am eating, she will jump up on the table, or get in my face to take whatever it is that I have. She does not appear to have any resource guarding issues with me, and I can take her food, bones, etc away from her without any problems.
She knows no basic commands. I have been attempting to teach her "sit" for the last few days, but she does not seem to be picking up on it. When I raise the food above her head, she dances around on her hind legs to get it. When I try gently placing her butt on the floor, she squirms and simply moves away.
I have had some success in teaching her "down". I have been able to lure the behavior out of her, but have yet to determine if she has connected the action to the command.
I feel that her recall is perhaps her best attribute. While I do not believe she yet knows here name, she seems to understand when I am talking to her. While playing at the park on a longline with Mulder (who was off lead), she often ran back to me when I called to her. I think Mulder will be big help in teaching this to her, as his recall is, for the most part, quite good.
It should be noted that she is an extremely sensitive dog. Loud noises and sudden movements frighten her, though she seems to have good recovery from this. She will flinch, or recoil, but does not run away. A simple "no" will stop many unwanted behaviors.
She is a destructive chewer. Even with exercise she seems to have a need to chew. I purchased for her an all natural rawhide, which she destroyed in record time. I will need to find a more durable chew to last her.
She is also a digger. She digs in the carpet, on the couch, and in the blankets in her crate. This does not seem to be as big of an issue as the chewing, and appears to decrease with exercise.
She is a mouther. To get attention she will sometimes grab at my pant legs and tug. Twice now she has taken my arm in her mouth, not aggressively, but bites down with enough force that it hurts afterward. When she is board, she will attempt to chew on my feet.
She has, twice now, attacked seemingly unprovoked. The first with the cat Lynyrd, the second with Mulder through the bars of her crate. The cause of this is not yet known. She seems to be good with cats outside of said incident, and enjoys playing with Mulder.

As you have recognized, Open Science Radio was attending this year's Barcamp Open Science as well as the Open Science Conference. This episode is a wrap-up together with Guido Scherp, one of the organizers (you'll know him by now). Guido is providing his impressions from the two events, we share ours and discuss a few things in general, as well as a few of the talks in more detail (this year we caught a few quotes).

OSR080 DeepGreen – Open Access Transformation for German Science (Poster Session) #osc2017 [EN]
DFG-funded research usually is provided with a (nationwide) negotiated license called Allianz-Lizenz which contains special Open-Access regulations that allows the OA publication of research results after a certain embargo period. However, experience shows that the authors (or their instiutional representatives) hardly ever make use of these Open Access rights, often due the related required efforts. The DeepGreen project aims to make the transformation to Open Access repositories easy to use on a technical level and automatic (if possible). At this poster session Julia Goltz from the Cooperative Network of Berlin and Brandenburg Libraries (KOBV) provides some insight to the project.
OSR079 Opening reproducible research (Poster Session) #osc2017 [EN]
As reproducibility becomes more and more important, one of the main challenges is to support it by making it easier and more accessible. Starting in the domain of geosciences, the DFG-funded project Opening Reproducible Research aims to improve the access to research results that are published over the Internet, and seeks to simplify their reuse in the form of a research compendium. At this poster session Markus Konkol from the Institute of Geoinformatics at WWU Münster provides some insight to the project.
OSR078 Continuous quality control for research data (Poster Session) #osc2017 [EN]
One of the important issues in an institutional setting nowadays is, to guarantee reproducibility and quality control during the research process and across the entire data lifecycle. The DFG-funded project CONQUAIRE – Continuous Quality Control for Research Data to Ensure Reproducibility focuses exactly on these tasks. At this poster session Vidya Ayer from the Semantic Computing Group at Bielefeld University provides a short introduction to the project and its main aspects.
OSR077 Open Peer Review (Poster Session) #osc2017 [EN]
Tony Ross-Hellauer is the OpenAIRE2020 Scientific Manager at Göttingen State and University Library (University of Göttingen). In its mission to further Open Science, OpenAIRE has investigated those models of peer review that are counted as "Open Peer Review" (OPR). A first step was to collect, categorize, analyze and evaluate the manifold definitions of the concept of Open Peer Review. At this poster session Tony reported about this phase and its outcomes.
OSR076 Open Science Education #oscibar [EN]
Bianca Kramer and Jeroen Bosman are probably well-known in the Open Science scene, especially from their work on the Innovations in Scholarly Communications project. During the barcamp they presented their 1-week summer school course on Open Science and Open Scholarship and were involved in the Open Science MOOC idea initiated by Jon Tennant.

From The Folks at American Racing Headers
We want to extend a huge thanks to the Camaro 5 crew for giving us the opportunity, once again, to contribute as sponsors of the Drag Race portion of the event.
As drag racers and manufacturer's of parts you can go drag racing with, this is a great way to give back to a community of car enthusiasts that have done quite a bit to help our young company grow. It was a great time for sure where even Mother Nature played a role by giving us some sunshine on Saturday.
Congrats to all the winners and runner up finishers. We're sure your trophies give you a reason to be proud considering how hard you worked to earn them. We hope to see you in Texas where you'll be known as the racers looking to repeat.
We must give a shout out to Jeff and the staff at Lucas Oil Raceway for working so hard to give us a track surface good enough to run a personal best of 8.56 with the ARH/Fark's Supercars Camaro. This also made us the fastest Gen 5 at the event. We truly enjoy racing at Indy and can't wait to return in October for the NMCA finals.
Lastly we hope you enjoyed meeting and speaking with us as much as we did with you. Yes we're in business and we want to sell headers but at the end of the day we share the same passion and appreciation for the hobby. Seeing and hearing about your Gen 5's or any hot rods in your stable is really something we don't take for granted, in fact it's a thrill.
All the best you, if you're traveling get home safely. If we can assist you in any way please feel free to ask.
Many Thanks,
Nick Filippides
