The photo above is the drawing on Seth's birthday card for his dad. The smiley face with the party hat and the…what? Sticking out of its mouth?
Yes, today is Todd's birthday. He is presently sleeping in. If you don't count the fact that he got up at 6 to take the puppy out. But he went right back to sleep, promise.
Both kids got busy just now making cards. Both seem to think he's the best dad ever.
Here he is being cute when we lived in Virgina.
Here he is below being cute playing chat pack with the kids.
Here he is being cute scraping my van.
Here he is being cute at a restaurant.
We were planning to do something fun outside, perhaps the zoo, or a hike, but the rain is coming down. We have an ice cream cake ordered for later. Oh…and we might go to a Japanese restaurant and watch the show today. He doesn't really care what he does, as long as it's with us.
So, Seth…explanation?
It's a noise maker.
"Those things you blow and they come unrolled?" Seth explained.
Not a cigarette. Not any kind of cigarette.
Thank you for clearing that up boy.
Thank you Todd, for working so hard for us and loving us so much, (and for never smoking). We love you right back.
Happy Birthday, my love.

Obzilla reaps another victim. Peter Droge and his cohorts thought they invented a DNA recombination technique. But a combination of a prior art patent and an article by two of the three applicants made the technique obvious, the patent board ruled, to which a CAFC panel agreed (CAFC 2011-1600). There was no argument over the evidence prima facie, only about what was reasonable. The inventors argued that similar work in prokaryotic cells "would not lead a skilled artisan to expect" the same result in eukaryotic cells. This argument was solidly backed by the prior art prokaryote workers teaching away: the relevant protein co-factors are present in prokaryotic cells, but not eukaryotic cells. But the CAFC is beyond reason in applying hindsight, and in backing the PTO if "a reasonable mind might accept as adequate to support a conclusion." In other words, facts just don't matter that much. To the CAFC and the USPTO nowadays, science is merely a matter of opinion. "'Obviousness does not require absolute predictability of success... all that is required is a reasonable expectation of success. In re Kubin, 561 F.3d 1351, 1360 (Fed. Cir. 2009) (citing In re O'Farrell, 853 F.2d 894, 903-04 (Fed. Cir. 1988))." Case-by-case subjectivity is now called rule of law.

"The most important part of the pho is the broth," Corlou said, "and because it takes so long to cook, it's difficult to make at home. You need strong bones and meat—oxtail and marrow-filled shinbones—and before being cooked they should be blanched and rinsed so the soup will be very clear. And you must not skim off all of the fat. Some is needed for flavor."
The cooking should be done at an almost imperceptible simmer, or what cooks sometimes describe as a "smile." (One instruction advises that the soup simmer overnight for at least 12 hours, with the cook staying awake to add water lest the broth reduce too much.) Only then does one pay attention to the width (about a quarter-inch) of the flat, silky rice noodles, and to the combination of greens, the freshness of the beef and, finally, to the golden-brown knots of fried bread, all added just moments before the pho is served. Despite his stringent rules, Corlou is not against the variations of pho that come with distance from Hanoi; in Saigon, far to the south, it's closer to the pho usually found in the United States, sweetened with rock sugar and full of mung bean sprouts and herbs, both rarely seen in the north.
A tasting dinner that night at La Verticale included Philharmonic president Zarin Mehta and his wife, Carmen; Gilbert and his mother; pianist Emanuel Ax; and Eric Latzky, the orchestra's director of communications. We were served about a dozen French-Vietnamese creations, including two haute phos, a rather mild one based on salmon with an astringent hint of coriander and another enriched with superb local foie gras, black mushrooms and crunchy cabbage.
The next day, Corlou guided a group of us through the teeming, winding aisles of the Hang Be market, close to willow-rimmed Hoan Kiem Lake, a habitat of Sunday strollers and early-morning practitioners of tai chi. He pointed out various fruits—among them seed-filled dragon fruit and russet, spiky-skinned rambutans—and introduced us to banana flowers, the pale mauve blossoms and creamy-white slivers of trunk shaved from newly sprouted banana trees. Dark gray, spotted snake-like fish swam in tanks, hard-shelled crabs writhed in their boxes, slices of pork sausages sizzled on grills and live rabbits and chickens plotted escapes from their cages. As lunchtime neared, market workers stretched out on cloths they draped over crates and mounds of produce and snoozed, their conical straw hats shielding their faces from light and flies. Hanging over all was the almost stifling fragrance of ripe tropical fruit, cut flowers and pungent spices, sharpened by the nose-twitching scents of nuoc mam sauce and medicinally sour-sweet lemon grass.
I sought pho recommendations from United States Ambassador Michael W. Michalak and his wife, Yoshiko. During a reception for the orchestra at the U.S. Embassy, a villa in the 20th-century palatial style, they introduced us to Do Thanh Huong, a local pho buff who owns two fashion gift shops named Tan My. With her recommendations added to Corlou's, we expected easy success in our forays, and, when it came to pho ga, we had no problems.
But looking for pho bo at midday proved a mistake. Hungrier by the minute, we searched out such recommended pho redoubts as Pho Bo Ly Beo, Pho Bat Dan, Pho Oanh and Hang Var, only to find each shuttered tight. Thus we learned the hard way that the beefy broth is traditionally a breakfast or late-night dish, with shops opening between 6 and 8 a.m. and again around 9 or 10 at night.
The next day, Gilbert and I were disappointed by a pallid, salty and inept pho bo at a much-recommended branch of a slick, trendy Saigon chain, Pho24; we dubbed it McPho. For the rest of our days in Hanoi, we rose early to find excellent pho in the stalls that had been closed to us at lunch. We also discovered Spices Garden, a very good Vietnamese restaurant in the restored Sofitel Metropole Hanoi, the historic hotel once patronized by Graham Greene, W. Somerset Maugham and Charlie Chaplin. There a verdant, abundant pho bo is part of the lunchtime buffet (no surprise, since Didier Corlou was the chef at the hotel for 16 years, until 2007). On the second and final night of the Philharmonic's engagement, the audience included a large number of children whose parents had brought them to hear the Brahms Concerto in D major for Violin and Orchestra, with featured violinist Frank Peter Zimmermann. Tetsuji Honna, the Japanese music director of the Vietnam National Symphony Orchestra, explained to me that the violin is the most popular instrument for children in Asia to learn.
After the concert, Honna and one of his violinists, Dao Hai Thanh, invited me to try some late-night pho in the old quarter of Hanoi around Tong Duy Tan Street. Here young Vietnamese gather at long tables at a variety of stalls where meats and vegetables are cooked over table grills or dipped into hot pots of seething broth.
Our destination was Chuyen Bo, a pho stall with stools so low that Honna had to pile three atop one another for me to sit on. The choice of ingredients was staggering: not only eight kinds of greens, tofu, soft or crisp noodles, but also various cuts of beef—oxtail, brisket, shoulder, kidneys, stomach, tripe, lungs, brains—plus cooked blood that resembled blocks of chocolate pudding, a pale pink meat described to me as "cow's breast" (finally decoded as "udder") and a rather dry, sinewy-looking meat that one of the workers, pointing to his groin, said was "from a man." I was relieved to learn that the ingredient in question was a bull's penis. I opted instead for a delicious if conventional pho of oxtail and brisket. But later I worried that I had missed an opportunity. Perhaps udder and penis pho might have made a more stirring, not to mention memorable, finale to my quest. Maybe next time. Pho better or pho worse.

According to Entertainment Weekly, the director of the film, Carlo Carlei has confirmed that the scene causing such a stir has been revised. Carlei states, "This script was written with a 20 year old actress in mind. As soon as Hailee was cast, all nudity and love making have been excised from the script."

No-Loan Colleges Can Reduce Out-of-Pocket Costs
by Jeff Levy, IECA (California)
While advising families on college affordability, it is important to keep in mind that there is no "one-size-fits-all" solution. One family may benefit most from a list of schools that meet 100% of need, while another might require schools where their child could receive substantial merit aid. Helping families devise effective strategies to minimize out-of-pocket costs requires that we first look closely at their needs, values, priorities, student academic profile, and family finances. Otherwise, our suggestions will surely miss the mark.
One approach to reducing the cost of college is to find institutions that have eliminated loans altogether in their financial aid packaging. Currently, there are fifteen such schools and many more that have eliminated loans for low to medium income applicants, according to this Naperville North High School document. Many of these schools, though not all, are among the most selective in the country, so this approach is particularly useful for high achieving students with demonstrated need.
How can a no-loan school reduce the family's upfront costs? Typically, loan offers are counter-intuitively included in financial aid packages. Federal Direct Loans for dependent undergraduates are capped at $5,500 for the first year, $6,500 for the second, and $7,500 for the third and fourth years, with an aggregate limit of $31,000. So a student who qualifies for, say, $20,000 in need-based aid her first year at a $60K college may receive a package consisting of grants, work study, and the $5,500 federal loan maximum. In this scenario, the family's upfront contribution would be the total cost of college less the financial aid award, or $40,000. If they can't meet that expense from savings and current income, they would have to borrow through the Parent PLUS loan program or an even less attractive private loan. Repayment of these loans begins shortly after disbursement, making this an immediate additional expense for a family already spending every dollar earned.
At a no-loan school, a student can still borrow through the federal student loan program. At the current interest rate of 3.86%, these loans are less expensive than Parent PLUS loans, have much lower fees, and a ten-year repayment schedule that doesn't begin until after graduation. The parent contribution of $40,000 could thus be reduced by $5,500 the first year and up to the allowable maximum each of the subsequent years. This student would accumulate debt that they wouldn't have otherwise taken on at this no-loan school, but the parents will be in a much stronger position to help pay down that debt after graduation when they are no longer faced with hefty college bills. This strategy could also work for families with no demonstrated need since unsubsidized student loans simply require submission of the FAFSA and are not need-based.
Student debt is a contentious issue, and opinions differ widely on how much a student should borrow. But familiarizing ourselves with the advice of two of the country's leading experts may be instructive. Mark Kantrowitz, founder of the Finaid and Fastweb websites, says, "A good rule of thumb is that your total education debt for your entire college education should be less than your expected starting salary after you graduate." Sandy Baum, Senior Fellow at the George Washington School of Education and Human Development, suggests more conservatively that student loan payments be no higher than ten percent of expected gross monthly income after graduation. If a student expects to earn $38,000 after graduation, ten percent of that income would service a loan of $31,000. Eight percent of that income would service a loan of $25,000.
Borrowing may not be right for every family. But just as we borrow to make home ownership possible, reasonable borrowing for this second most expensive lifetime purchase can be a smart strategy. For a high achieving student able to enroll at a no-loan school, a smart approach to borrowing can give a financially strapped family a necessary cushion as they struggle to meet their substantial college costs.
One Response to No-Loan Colleges Can Reduce Out-of-Pocket Costs
Jeff…Very useful info, especially as so many families are unaware of these "no-loan" opportunities. While I do believe that kids should own some of the cost related to their educations by taking out "manageable" student loans, it's also essential that they understand the financial consequences of doing so and, accordingly–as Mark Kantrowitz and others recommend–borrow conservatively.

May 30, 2008
Excerpted from West Virginia Employment Law Letter and written by attorneys at the law firms of Steptoe & Johnson PLLC
The general rule under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) is that employees aren't entitled to compensation for travel time that isn't "a principal activity or integral or indispensable to those principle activities."
But what does that mean for your workplace? Whether employee travel time is compensable under the FLSA involves a case-by-case analysis, but here are a few rules of thumb that may help you evaluate whether your employee should be paid for his "time on the road."
Learn more about travel time pay and other wage and hour issues in the Wage and Hour Compliance Manual
Travel to work or work site
Home-to-work travel is generally not compensable. But travel from a central work location to an outlying work site often is. Generally, if any work is engaged in before traveling to a different location, then the travel time is compensable. For instance, employees who arrive at a central location to load equipment and receive assignments before departing for outside work must be paid for their travel time to the outlying location. Conversely, travel time isn't compensable if the employees arrive at a central work location to be transported to the work site, but no work whatsoever was performed before their departure.
One exception to the general rule that ordinary home-to-work travel isn't compensable is the emergency callback situation. If an employee is called back to work for an emergency, travel time from his home to the work site is compensable and he must be paid for that time.
Travel to another location
If an employee is occasionally required to travel to another work location, that time may be compensable. For instance, you learn that you will be short-handed at another facility and you require an employee to travel two hours away to fill in at another work site. Because this isn't ordinary home-to-work travel and was required by you, the employee must be paid for the additional time spent traveling that day.
HR Guide to Employment Law: A practical compliance reference manual covering 14 topics, including overtime and FLSA requirements
Overnight travel
If an employee is required to travel away from home, all time spent traveling during regular working hours (regardless of the day of the week) is compensable. For example, an employee is required to travel to a distant city and will be gone overnight. She leaves on Tuesday morning, travels half the day, begins work at 1:00 p.m., and works until 5:00 p.m. On Wednesday, she works from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and then boards a plane to return home. That employee is entitled to pay for all working hours and all travel time during those working hours. The travel time after 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday, however, isn't compensable under the FLSA.
Is it compensable?
When determining whether travel time is compensable, you need to think critically about whether the employee's travel time is principal to your goals or integral or indispensable to those goals. To assist with that determination, here are a few general rules.
Travel time may be compensable if:

Typefaces used in editorial design typically call attention to themselves, but they should not appear so individual that they overpower the message of the text. The selections that you make will become the voice of your publication: this is your opportunity to be unique.
When it comes to editorial design and publishing, design work is usually done on a tight deadline. Your publication's designers probably work in a larger layout team. Everyone on board needs to be able to make do with the typefaces they have at hand, so be sure to make selections that will provide them versatility, right off the bat. Larger families with many weights and widths are a good start. If you don't want to pick a superfamily, consider serif and sans serif typefaces that can combine well together on the same page.
In this area of graphic design, designers have the freedom to pick type that is a little more elegant than in many other applications. Remember what makes a typeface appear classic – this could be a great time to look through selections with 'low' x-heights, especially if your page layout has room for text with long ascenders and descenders. There are many different kinds of serifs, too. Take the opportunity to pick one whose form matches your message, be it elegant, sharp or soft.

Hans Reichel 1949–2011
Photo: Marc Eckardt
The Wuppertal musician, instrument builder, graphic designer and type designer Hans Reichel suddenly and unexpectedly passed away in his studio last Tuesday. Designers and typographers know him as the creator of the popular Barmeno and the world-renowned FF Dax family. Other type designs by Reichel are FF Daxline, FF Sari, FF Schmalhans, and FF Routes.
Hans Reichel appeared on the type scene with his first design Barmeno, an idiosyncratic sans serif released in 1983 by Berthold. He would revisit this concept of a rounded spurless design in 1999 with FF Sari. Expanding on his original ideas he devised a more versatile and complete interpretation, with a wider range of weights and a comprehensive character set.
Although Barmeno and FF Sari enjoyed seizable success, Hans Reichel's real breakthrough as a type designer came with the typographic powerhouse FF Dax. Slightly more angular and systematic than its predecessor, this immensely popular type family has become arguably one of the most used advertising faces worldwide since its release fifteen years ago. The FF Dax family was gradually augmented with compact, condensed and wide versions, and italics for all variants.
Also FF Dax was subsequently revisited. Seeing Akira Kobayashi's lecture about Adrian Frutiger's Avenir Next at TYPO Berlin 2004 inspired Hans Reichel to start working on FF Daxline. The improved proportions and decreased stress make it better suited for text use. Personally Reichel thought FF Daxline to be the better typeface – it is clearer, airier and more versatile. Reichel toyed with the idea of creating a condensed version, but wasn't sure if he'd still be able to swing it at his "retirement age". Sadly, now we will never know.
Through the music he created, through the instruments he built, and through the typefaces he designed Hans Reichel shone as a fiercely original voice. With the disappearance of this multitalented maverick artist the type and music world is left a little poorer, a little less wondrous.permalink

The science behind diagnosis and wellness
The laboratory analysis of blood and body fluid is the basis for 85 percent of medical diagnosis and treatment decisions. So if you're into science and inclined toward medicine, but like to work independently and away from patients, this important career may be for you. Graduates are extremely well prepared to take the national certification exam and enter well-paying careers. ACC offers an Associate of Applied Science degree in Medical Laboratory Technology. An Institutional Certificate in Molecular Diagnostics is available for students who already have a college degree in an area of laboratory science. Both programs incorporate classroom instruction, laboratory practice using today's most advanced equipment, and clinical rotations in local laboratories and hospitals.
PLEASE NOTE: If you have not already completed the ACC admissions process, please visit the Future Students page. At the financial aid page you can check your eligibility and submit an application.
This program has specific program requirements and prerequisite courses. Acceptance to ACC does not guarantee admission to this program.
What skills can I gain?
Students will develop the expertise to prepare and identify specimens, culture microorganisms to determine their identity and susceptibility to antibiotics, conduct blood cell counts on patient samples, analyze body fluids to determine chemical and biological components, prepare various solutions and reagents, and assume administrative functions relative to reporting and recording test results. In addition, students will learn to type, cross-match, and prepare blood for transfusions, as well as blood and body-fluid safety precautions, laboratory equipment troubleshooting, quality control methods for testing, and technique for the collection of blood samples from patients.
The Institutional Certificate in Molecular Diagnostics is only available for students who already have a college degree in clinical laboratory science or other related science interested in acquiring additional knowledge and skill in this new area of laboratory science.

Jan 19, 2013 Letters Comments Off on An open letter to the Clerk of the National Assembly
Dear Sir,
Re: 1st Meeting of the Committee of Privileges – 21st January, 2012
Your letter dated 16th January, 2013, refers.
As you may be aware, the Honourable Speaker of the National Assembly had indicated in a letter to the Honourable Prime Minister and Leader of Government business in the House, and publicly, that the matters which are to be considered at the captioned meeting would not be dealt with by the Privileges Committee until the proceedings pending in the High Court were heard and determined.
Those legal proceedings have not yet been heard and determined. Indeed, at page 33 of the Chief Justice's ruling, the following passage appears, "the Court allows the Motion to be proceeded with in relation to paragraphs 1 (b) and 3 (b) of the Notice of Motion." Additionally, the Honourable Speaker has indicated at a Press Conference that he intends to appeal the Court's ruling. I also, intend to cross-appeal. In short, from every conceivable perspective, the legal proceedings are far from conclusion and indeed are pending. No reason has been furnished by the Honourable Speaker for abnegating from his previously held aforesaid position.
Further, I have observed that the matters slated to be considered at the captioned meeting, expressly touch and concern the Honourable Clement J. Rohee, MP, Minister of Home Affairs. As you are aware, Minister Rohee is a Member of the said Committee of Privileges. In consequence thereof, I am of the considered view that the process which is scheduled to be embarked upon and indeed its eventual outcome, will be infected with the fatal virus of bias and accordingly, will be violative of the rules of natural justice, will be unlawful, null, void and of no effect.
As a result, I have advised the Honourable Member to resign from the said Committee. A copy of his resignation letter will be forwarded to you. In relation thereto, I respectfully suggest that a meeting of the Committee of Selection be summoned to consider a replacement for Minister Rohee for the Committee of Privileges in respect of the matters at hand.
Significantly, despite numerous public utterances on the issue from both the Speaker and the Parliamentary Opposition, I am yet to hear any clear and definitive statement which would tend to suggest that they are prepared to comply with the clear and unambiguous pronouncements of the Honourable Chief Justice in relation to Minister Rohee's right to speak in the National Assembly.
I set out hereunder, for clarity, a few of those pronouncements.
The Chief Justice ruled that the Constitution confers an undoubted right upon every elected member of the National Assembly to speak on any matter in the National Assembly. In his own words, the Learned Chief Justice at page 27 "it is the view of this court that Mr. Rohee's right to speak in the National Assembly derives from his office as a member of the National Assembly and not from his office as an executive Minister. Thus, his right as an elected member of the National Assembly must be concomitant with his constitutional duty to speak for and to represent his electors in the National Assembly who, in turn, have a concomitant right to be so represented"
As regards the No Confidence Motion passed by the Opposition in the Parliament, the Learned Chief Justice ruled at page 23 to 24 of the Judgement that "the issue in this matter is not at all whether the National Assembly has confidence in Mr. Rohee as Minister of Home Affairs but rather is whether the Speaker has acted (and may further act) unconstitutionally or illegally in prohibiting him from speaking or making presentations in the National Assembly for reason of that expression of no confidence. Assuming for the purpose of analysis that Mr. Rohee was not an executive Minister but was the holder of a seat in the National Assembly (like all Opposition members of the National Assembly), would his office of Minster render him more vulnerable to a prohibition against speaking than those members of the National Assembly who had no such Ministerial office? It is indeed difficult to see how such a question can be answered in the affirmative. It is indeed difficult to see how, in the face of the doctrine of separation of powers, the Speaker can prohibit a member (particularly an elected member) from speaking or making a presentation in that Assembly on account of the absence of confidence of the majority of the members of the Assembly in that person qua an executive Minister when he sits in the Assembly not qua Minister of the Government but qua member of the National Assembly."
And at page 32, the Chief Justice stated "it behoves the Speaker and indeed the National Assembly as a whole to respect not only the finding of the court for reason of its finality but also the constitutional right of Mr. Rohee to represent his electors and their constitutional right to be represented by him in the National Assembly."
The aforesaid constitute clear pronouncements on matters of law by a Court of Law which, as the Chief Justice opined in his written judgement, "only the Court can speak with finality on a legal question or issue." The Court has done so. There seems to be a marked reluctance to respect the Court's pronouncements.
I am therefore impelled to the view that a decision now for the Privileges Committee to consider the issues slated for consideration is one which is designed to circumvent, ignore and disregard the pronouncements of the Honourable Chief Justice and one that is contaminated with ulterior motives.
In the circumstance and for the reasons adumbrated above, I request that the captioned meeting be either aborted permanently or adjourned indefinitely.
I solicit your most magnanimous consideration.
Yours faithfully

My cycling in Singapore experiences - barking dogs
I am not a dog lover, and am quite against keeping pets. I just find the article too bias against dogs, and will very likely lead to the deaths of these innocent dogs. The road mentioned is a dead end road which most will not ride into. I rode that route accidentally one Sunday evening last Oct, and was also barked at by the dogs, who came crowded around me, but that's all. Nothing much to worry about.
I am also not an expert in dealing with stray dogs, but from my experiences with dogs while cycling, including those huge ones in industrial areas, and such "stray" or I prefer natural dogs in the wild, I would like to share what I understand.
Basically, I think dogs will bark at intruders, especially those that they detected only at close distance, and their intention is to make a stand telling the intruders that the place is their territory. Thus, this is what I do, and would advise others:
a) Don't ride silently in dogs areas. Have some music on speakers so that dogs will not be shocked by you, are more prepared to expect something approaching them, and have more time to access what is approaching.
b) When barked at, don't assume they are going to attack. Just continue at same or slower speed.
c) If approached, I think their intention is just to sniff your smell.
d) Soon, you will be further away from them and they will go back to their life.
The above is my amateur understandings and methods which have worked for me couple of times.. Please do check with dogs or wild life experts on dealing with them.
I hope the peaceful life of these dogs and the residents there will not be terminated by the above news article.
But too late.. heard that the AVA people had already been to Bukit Brown :(

To allow for secure growth into new markets, organizations cannot cut corners when it comes to anti-corruption due diligence.
Our 11th Fraud Survey found about 20% of companies conduct no fraud-related pre-acquisition due diligence procedures and 42% of companies conduct no fraud-related post-acquisition due diligence.
A weak global economy forces companies to pursue growth through a variety of business transactions in developed and emerging markets. Lucrative opportunities can put blinders on senior executives leading to a relaxation of policies regarding third-party due diligence. But could a company's desire to expand lead to overlooking drivers of fraud, bribery and corruption?
To allow for secure growth into new markets, organizations cannot cut corners when it comes to anti-corruption due diligence. The full attention of senior executives must be devoted to a proper corruption risk assessment, a comprehensive review of the target company's anti-corruption policies, developing action plans for any and all red flags that are identified, and strategy for combining best practices from each company into a strong anti-corruption compliance program.
Bribery and corruption pose significant challenges for companies entering into new markets through business transactions, including mergers, acquisitions or joint ventures. Companies must identify and understand the exposure that an acquisition may bring, and only through robust anti-corruption due diligence procedures can this be done effectively.
As regulatory authorities continue to aggressively enforce anti-corruption laws, Global institutions must ask two key questions in order to safeguard their business operations from the potential crippling repercussions, in the form of legal costs and loss of business, under The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 (FCPA):
Substantial proportion of management targeting aggressive growth
1 in 5 aim to grow aggressively in next 12 months, and 1 in 3 will look out for opportunities, but 1 in 3 are waiting for prospects to improve.
Q: Which of the following best characterizes your company's strategy over the next year?
Base: All respondents (1,409)
For EY's 11th Fraud Survey, executives around the world were asked about their strategy in upcoming years in regard to growth opportunities. Twenty-three percent of respondents indicated that they will be growing aggressively, and 30% indicated that they would pursue growth opportunistically.
Entering lucrative emerging markets can be complicated and leave a global organization susceptible to bribery, corruption or fraud. A common growth strategy is to pursue joint ventures or mergers and acquisitions with companies that have a strong presence in the desired market.
But not enough attention is paid to the potential risks associated with these strategies. Companies must perform stringent third-party due diligence in order to uncover any "red flags" that could lead to substantial legal costs and a failed growth strategy.
Frequency of conducting due diligence into fraud risks
Q: How frequently has your company conducted due diligence into fraud and/or corruption-related risks before acquiring a new business in the last two years?
Q: How frequently has your company conducted fraud and/or corruption-related post-acquisition due diligence in the last two years?
Base: All making acquisitions (888)The 'Don't know' percentages have been omitted in order to allow better comparison between the responses given.
Also, EY's 11th Fraud Survey found about 20 percent of companies conduct no fraud-related pre-acquisition due diligence procedures, and 42 percent of companies conduct no fraud-related post-acquisition due diligence.
Moreover, the survey revealed that nearly 30 percent of companies that acquired new business in the last two years "never or infrequently" considered bribery or corruption risks in the context of a potential acquisition.
Now more than ever, regulators expect companies to perform thorough pre- and post-acquisition anti-corruption due diligence, and this data signifies that there is considerable room for improvement.

With a $600 budget and looking for used, the market is wide open to you. I do like Glock but know there are many equals or better out there. With a $600 budget you fairly have a wide range of new also.

so I've been carrying concealed for ~8 months now, and after a couple months of weekly range visits with me, my friend Ed wants to purchase a carry pistol. He's very familiar with my Walther P22 and SW99 (.40), and is an excellent shot with both of them. He's looking for advice on a carry gun of his own.
I have no problem concealing my full size SW99 in an OWB holster; I'm a big guy (6'1", 220lbs). But Ed is about 5'10" and 120lbs (his nickname is stick boy ), so it may be a good idea for him to find a smaller gun. I've recommended 9mm for caliber, as it's a decent defense round that's pretty cheap to buy in bulk for practice. Though .40 isn't out of the question, it is pricier for the ammo (ask how I know ).
I was originally thinking Glock 19. But I'm open to other suggestions. He definitely wants an auto (no wheelguns sadly), and is biased toward polymer frame. He likes the idea of a Glock of some type, but he also likes my SW99. He's looking to keep the price at ~$600 or less, so we're going to take a look at the used guns at out local gunshop within the next week or two to see what we can find. Elsewise I'm afraid we might be pushing his budget for a quality polymer pistol brand new.
What are your thoughts?

With a $600 budget and looking for used, the market is wide open to you. I do like Glock but know there are many equals or better out there. With a $600 budget you fairly have a wide range of new also.
I think he'll be surprised what he can conceal. I was a bit skeptical at first, and thought i would need a 3" gun, but i recently bought a 4" 1911 and can make it disappear no problem. This is using a Milt Sparks VM-II. I think its more the holster you use than the gun.
I'm 5'8", 140lbs by the way.
Also, does anyone have experience with the new Smith & Wesson M&P series? The M&P 9mm might be just the ticket he's looking for...

Have you looked into the Springfield XD line of pistols? Various calibers and sizes and polymer frames . I have an XD 9 service and the XD45 service size 4" and have no problems with concealment . These pistol are gaining popularity VERY fast , and even converting some Glock fanatics .
Anyone make a IWB holster for my AR ??
Actually I haven't, though I should (I'm a Springfield Armory fan, my next firearms purchase will be an M1A). Thanks for the reminder. :)

Your friend wants a polymer gun and likes your Walther, but you think something smaller in 9mm might be appropriate. Why not the compact version of the Walther P99, called the P99c? It holds 10+1 rounds of 9mm and would conceal easier on his small frame. Here is one for sale for $557 on Gunbroker:
Walther P99c on Gunbroker
Get your friend on this forum at let him find his own gun. You can make all the suggestions in the world, but he needs to make an educated decision.
Your friend needs to try different guns to make an informed decision. Being on the thin side he will need to look for thin pistols. The SIG P239 has a relatively thin profile since it is a single stack weapon. It is available in 9 mm, .357SIG, and .40. There is a slight difference between the 9mm and the other two in the thickness of the weapon at the top of the slide. The overall thickness of the pistol does not vary. My 9mm and .357SIG P239s use the same holster.
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe. Albert Einstein
It's all about clothing. A shirt one size too big can almost conceal a bazooka if you carry IWB.
...He suggested that "every American citizen" should own a rifle and train with it on firing ranges "at every courthouse." -Chesty Puller
I love my M&P in 9mm (check above website for photo). I got it for a few bucks cheaper than the Glock and I like the way it feels better than a Glock. You can get a compact now too, which are on the Smith and Wesson website. The compact is comparable to a G26/27 in size.
I go over why I like it toward the middle/bottom of first page. It really is a great gun and can't say anything bad about it. If you have any specific questions, I would be glad to answer them. S&W has a lifetime warranty, too, which is huge.
Life, liberty, and the pursuit of the ultimate CC gun!
The larger PD's here in Ohio are switching to the M&P. I am not terribly impressed with them, but they seem like a ok gun. Most of the officers who have them really like them.
If I were you, I'd shy away until the pistol has proven itself in the field.
As other's have suggested, Springfield XD's are fine firearms. When I was looking for a medium framed 9mm I ended up choosing my Taurus PT-111. I really like it and have had no problems with it, after 250 rounds. It conceals well too. Also it is nice on the pocket book ~$300.
I have a SA XD 9MM as well as S&W M&P .40. Both are excellent guns (although I'm still learning how to shoot the .40). That being said, a gun is a very personal thing. Your friend needs to handle some guns. Go to a good gun shop and pick up some guns. See how they feel in his hands. Find one that is comfortable and feels natural. It should point naturally. The next step (if possible) is to shoot one. Hopefully you can find a range that rents weapons. As to picking the brand, there are many good options. Glock, SA XD, Smith & Wesson (non sigma series), HK, and Sig Sauer, all produce a variety of styles and calibers. I hope this helps.
"To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic." Ted Nugent
My Kimber Ultra Carry II conceals better than any pistol I've tried and it's light. Frame size is not always the most important issue to a carry weapon, I had a Sig P229 which I sold for the Kimber. They were fairly close in size but loaded with 12 .40SW rounds made that Sig feel like a brick. The Kimber carries 7 .45 rounds, but only weighs 25 ounces empty. I found that the Kimber has less perceived recoil and I am more accurate with it than I was with the Sig. The frame geometry on a 1911 fits me better.
As stated above....tell your bud to get to a forum or two and ask questions...then get to a shop and start handling some guns. The proof is in the wearing.......

Ventura Improv Company Marks its Anniversary with Show and Fundraiser
The Ventura Improv Company will provide a humorous walk down memory lane to celebrate its birth. A grand 25th birthday party and fundraiser is scheduled for June 28 at the Rubicon Theatre.
It was way back in 1989 when a handful of folks ventured to Santa Paula to take an improv theater workshop run by Barbara Scott, now of the famed BATS Improv in San Francisco. Gary Best, a seasoned actor at the time, tried improv because "it looked really scary."
Despite his fears, the seeds were sown — and, out of that fateful workshop, the Ventura Improv Company (VIC) was born.
Growing from a small but dedicated group of people (including still-active co-founders Best and Tom Mueller), the company first held classes and shows where and when they could around Ventura. Over the years (and through several name changes), the Ventura Improv Company finally settled in at their eponymous building on 34 North Palm Street, offering regular shows and workshops to improv lovers of all ages.
Mueller can't believe its been a quarter century. "Most theater groups our age have been out of business for 22 years," he says. "Although I am sure good luck had something to do with it, so did the dedication of our VIC members and of the good people of Ventura County who have attended our shows."
Ventura's Rubicon Theatre will provide the stage for June 28's bash, which will include drinks, snacks, and an improv show featuring many returning friends and alumni of the VIC, including members of LA TheatreSports, San Francisco's BATS Improv, and more. Many laughs and memories will be guaranteed.
"It will be great to have old and new VIC friends together to celebrate," says Mueller. "We all deserve a big pat on the back."
VIC's 25th Birthday Party and Fundraiser is happening on Saturday June 28th. Reception at 7, show at 8. Tickets are $25 and can be purchased by going towww.venturaimprov.com/25 or calling (805) 643-5701 x2.

RAILAY, Thailand – Our first encounter with Railay left us at a loss. The peninsula was full of so much beauty, but so much of it was wasted. See it all in today's photo gallery.

A 20-year-old man has been arrested after a rifle was allegedly pointed at a female police officer in Katikati early yesterday.
The constable had been responding to a report of suspicious activity and was leaving the home of a witness about 2.30am when she spotted a man, police said.
When she stopped to speak to him he dropped the bags he was carrying and allegedly swung a rifle towards her, police said.
The officer called for backup and the armed offenders squad was called out.
"A bag containing a rifle and ammunition was located and a short time later a man who emerged from a nearby address was arrested without incident," police said.
Western Bay of Plenty area commander Inspector Cliff Paxton said such cases needed to be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
"The officer in this situation acted entirely appropriately and the result was a swift and successful resolution," Mr Paxton said.
"Staff safety is a constant concern to me. My staff are dedicated and committed to keeping their communities safe and to do so they place themselves in potentially dangerous situations every day."
Neighbours told the Bay of Plenty Times yesterday they were alarmed by the incident.
A young couple, who bought their house on Fairview St six years ago, said they had put it on the market three months ago. The woman said her husband worked night shifts and it "freaked her out" being at home alone with their 18-month-old baby.
"We don't like being here," she said. Her husband added: "There's always something happening on the street ... there are always fights on the street."
Another resident, whose house backed on to a park, said people ran through her property to the park.
"You feel you've got to have everything locked down pretty hard."
She had owned the property for four years and was renovating it with a view to selling. "I want to move," she said.
Alana Shaw, a retail executive at Liquor King, said police acted quickly for such a little town.
"Everyone knows the cops quite well and are hoping she will be fine," Miss Shaw said.
Paper Plus Post Shop owner Dennis Jensen said Katikati remained a good community.
"I wouldn't say it's changed that much. I certainly don't feel unsafe," he said.
Hayden Flay, 20, of Waipa, appeared in Tauranga District Court yesterday.
Flay entered no plea to charges of burglary, unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition, using a firearm against a law enforcement officer and unlawful taking of a vehicle.
Flay was remanded in custody to appear in court on Tuesday.

Addressing the Dwight Howard Speculation
Free agency officially begins tomorrow. With it will come ten more days of Dwight Howard rumors. In fact, the speculation has begun to make it all the way down to South Florida.
Some Heat fans may be focused on a hypothetical trade of Chris Bosh. It won't happen. Not even if, say, Howard were available.
The Lakers are literary begging Howard to re-sign. They've resorted to billboards and hashtag campaigns to convince their superstar to re-sign. It reportedly hasn't worked. Howard is planning a free agency tour that includes the Rockets at midnight; the Hawks and Warriors on Monday; and the Mavericks and Lakers on Tuesday. The Rockets are thought to be his preferred destination.
The Lakers might not be so keen on losing him for nothing. Howard might not be so keen on moving to a team that doesn't have a great shot to win an NBA title.
If he wants to win, there's no better landing spot for Howard than the Miami Heat. If the Lakers want a return, there is no better package than one that features Chris Bosh.
But here's the thing: it won't happen.
It's not about assessing whether Dwight would want Miami. It's not about whether the Heat would want Dwight (or if they'd be willing to part with Bosh to get him). It's not because LeBron James would need to sign off for it to happen. Rather, it's because it can't happen.
It's not possible. As in, technically impossible – a violation of NBA rules. Read more…

Let's cook up a plan to get your kids in the kitchen. Why? The kitchen is a one-stop shop for learning. Cooking allows your children to put their school skills to use: reading, arithmetic, science and creativity. The best part is that cooking is not limited to one age group. And, the product is something good to eat hopefully!
Young children can practice manipulation of utensils such as stirring and measuring. Older children can practice reading and following directions. Teens can experiment with complex multiple step recipes which require time management, knife skills, and safe food handling.
Giving children the responsibility of food preparation increases the likelihood they will eat the food. Being the chef means you know what is in the food and you have pride in your accomplishments. This combination makes children more inclined to try new foods. Use this tactic when integrating fruits and vegetables into your child's diet.
The cooking process, prepping, eating and cleaning, can also bring the family together. And at the same time, help your family learn about the food you enjoy. What is the food's origin? How is the food cultivated? What nutrients are found in the food you eat?
As a parent, you will appreciate the financial and health benefits to preparing your own meals. Shopping for ingredients and taking time to make your own food is more affordable than purchasing ready-to-eat food from your local grocery or restaurant. Also, when you're the chef, you control the type and source of ingredients. This means you can modify the fat, sugar or sodium content.
Cooking together can start as a rainy day activity or weekend treat. As your children become more familiar with the cooking process, you can begin to include them as your sous-chefs on a regular basis. Pretty soon, you will be taking directions from your little chefs and enjoying the benefits of their culinary skills!
Let your child pick a new fruit or vegetable and prepare a dish using the new food as the star ingredient.
