st: Goal seeker in Stata?
Wed, 31 Mar 2010 09:57:15 +0200
Hello everybody,
I?m looking for something similar to the goal seeker feature in Excel. I
calculated the average income tax rate for given values of taxable income:
Average_income_tax_rate = Income_tax (taxable_income)/taxable_income
But I need the taxable income for given values of average income tax rate.
Unfortunately the relation between taxable income and income tax is not
straight forward and I had to use some if statements. Therefore I can not
simply rearrange the equation so that I have taxable income on the left
A solution would be Stata just tries different values of taxable income
(using equation above) until it finds the value of taxable income, which
leads to the given average income tax rate.
Does such a command exist in Stata? Until now I didn?t find anything. Other
solutions for my problem are also very welcome.

The kidney disease crescentic glomerulonephritis rapidly progresses to acute kidney failure and death within months if it is not treated. Even with treatment, many patients progress to end-stage kidney disease and require dialysis and sometimes a kidney transplant.
New research in mice, performed by Alan Salama and colleagues, at Hammersmith Hospital, United Kingdom, has identified a potential new drug target for the treatment of crescentic glomerulonephritis.
In the study, mice lacking the mannose receptor protein were found to be protected from crescentic glomerulonephritis. This protection was associated with decreased kidney damage mediated by cells known as macrophages and mesangial cells. Further, macrophages lacking the mannose receptor actually became antiinflammatory in the kidney after they interacted with mesangial cells.
The authors therefore suggest that targeting the mannose receptor might provide a new approach to treating crescentic glomerulonephritis. Importantly, this approach would not have the wide-ranging immunosuppressive effects that many current therapies have.
The research appears in the Journal of Clinical Investigation.

We're used to finding hidden easter eggs in software, but the HP Mini 1000 netbook deviates from the norm: It secretly contains a 3G modem.
Chances are when you remove the HP Mini 1000's battery, you'll see a SIM card slot, according to Liliputing's Brad Linder. That means if you own a cell phone using a wireless data plan, you can take out its SIM and stick it into the netbook's slot to surf the web. That's way easier than tethering.
Interestingly, just finding the modem isn't enough to get it to work. You'll also have to install some software to activate it, available for download via a link at Pocketable Forums.

Indian yellow-nosed albatross
|Indian yellow-nosed albatross
|Off the south-east coast of Tasmania
|Scientific classification
|T. carteri
|Binomial name
|Thalassarche carteri
(Rothschild, 1903)
Thalassarche chlororhynchos carteri
The Indian yellow-nosed albatross (Thalassarche carteri) is a member of the albatross family, and is the smallest of the mollymawks. In 2004, BirdLife International[2] split this species from the Atlantic yellow-nosed albatross; however Clements[3] has not split it yet, and the SACC has not either, but recognises the need for a proposal.[4]
Mollymawks are a type of albatross that belong to the family Diomedeidae of the order Procellariiformes, along with shearwaters, fulmars, storm petrels, and diving petrels. They share certain identifying features. They have nasal passages called naricorns attached to the upper bill. The bills of Procellariiformes are unique in that they are split into between 7 and 9 horny plates. They make a stomach oil made of wax esters and triglycerides that is stored in the proventriculus. This is used against predators and as an energy rich food source for chicks and for the adults during their long flights.[5] They have a salt gland above the nasal passage. It helps desalinate their bodies, due to the high amount of ocean water that they imbibe.[6] The type-specimen is a black-beaked juvenile, which has caused confusion over its status until recently.[7]
The Indian yellow-nosed albatross weighs 2.55 kg (5.6 lb), is 76 cm (30 in)[8] long and is 2 m (6.6 ft) across the wings.[9] The adult has a pale grey or white head and nape, with a dark grey mantle, upperwing, and tail. Its rump and underparts are white, and its underwing is white with a black tip with a narrow black margin at the leading edge. Its bill is black with a yellow upper ridge and a red tip. The juvenile has a white head and all black bill.[8] It is difficult to distinguish from the closely related grey-headed albatross and Atlantic yellow-nosed albatross, the latter with which it was long considered conspecific and is still considered by some a subspecies of. It can be distinguished from the Atlantic yellow-nosed by its head, the grey plumage of which is lighter on the Indian yellow-nosed.
Like all albatrosses, the Indian yellow-nosed albatross is a colonial breeder. It breeds annually,[8] and the adults begin breeding at the age of eight years. A mud nest is built in bare rocky areas or in tussock grass or ferns,[8][10] and a single egg is laid. the nesting season begins in August, with laying occurring around September/October. Incubation lasts around 70 days. After hatching the chick takes around 115 days to fledge.
It feeds on fish, crustaceans and cephalopods.[8][11]
Range and habitat[edit]
|Amsterdam Island
|27,000 pair
|Prince Edward Islands
|7,500 pair
|Crozet Island
|7,030 pair
|Kerguelen Island
|50 pair
|Île Saint-Paul
|3 pair
It breeds on Prince Edward Islands, the Crozet Islands, Kerguelen Island, Amsterdam Island (on the Falaises d'Entrecasteaux) and St Paul Islands in the Indian Ocean. When feeding during incubation, birds will forage up to 1,500 km (930 mi) from the colony.[12] At sea it ranges from South Africa to the Pacific Ocean just beyond New Zealand, ranging from 30° S to 50° S.[8][13]
It is considered to be an endangered species by the IUCN,[1] due to dramatic declines in the last seventy years, caused by interactions with longline fisheries and the outbreak of introduced diseases, such as avian cholera and Erysipelothrix rhusiopathiae.[14] It has an occurrence range of 35,300,000 km2 (13,600,000 sq mi) and a breeding range of 1,400 km2 (540 sq mi). A 2004 population estimate established that around a total of 65,000 adult birds are alive. This is based on earlier counts as follows: 27,000 breeding pairs breed on Amsterdam Island,[15] and 7,500 pair on Prince Edward Island,[14] 7,030 on Crozet Island,[16] 50 on Kerguelen Island,[17] and 3 pair on St. Paul Island for a total of 41,580 pair or 83,000 mature individuals. Take into account decreasing trends for the stated number.
Monitoring of the birds and studying of its foraging is an ongoing project on Amsterdam Island, and Prince Edward Islands is a nature preserve. A vaccination has been developed but remains untested.[14] Finally, in 2006, the Indian Ocean Tuna Commission adopted a measure to require longline boats to use a bird streamer south of 30°S, and South Africa requires its boats to use a variety of mitigation processes.[8]

Did somebody put Hugh Hefner in charge of the Games when I wasn't looking? At a press conference last week featuring the British women's beach volleyball team, the first question to the athletes was: Will you promise to wear your bikinis even if it rains?
That question was followed, according to Reuters, by several more along the same lines, as if the reporters had had a collective stroke and the only word their brains could form was "bikini." The male athletes sat there while no one asked them a question, because we already knew they weren't going to wear bikinis. They were free to think about boring stuff like training routines and nutrition – not whether they'd be expelled from the competition if a stray hair escaped the vigilance of waxers. (I imagine the waxing team like a Formula One pit crew, sticky strips at the ready, with a bonus going to the first who screams, "Follicle popping, right cheek!")
This year at the Olympics, the women's beach volleyball teams have been given the option of wearing shorts and long-sleeved tops instead of bikinis, as a concession both to religious beliefs and a London summer that's been more tsunami than Bondi. The prospect of clothing has disappointed some onlookers, who perhaps assumed they'd be getting a free mojito and a pole dance along with their tickets. The American team was quick to assure its fans that, for them, it was bikini or the highway.
In many ways, it feels like we've time-travelled to the Summer Games of 1960, with Rock Hudson and Doris Day as our bickering guides through the wormhole. It's not just the fact that the Japanese and Australian men's basketball teams got to fly business class while their female counterparts were back among the sardines, with their knees around their ears and some delicious enigma meat for consolation. Oh, no. It's the way that the female athletes' appearance continues to be such a bizarre and unpleasant distraction.
Over the past few days, Australia has been all in a tizzy over star swimmer Leisel Jones, a gold medalist in Beijing, whose fitness has been debated across the country. "Unflattering" was the euphemism of choice to describe photos of Ms. Jones that appeared in the national media, although one newspaper cut through the coyness with the headline "Nation gets in flabby flap." Australia's Minister for Sport called the criticism of Ms. Jones's weight "appalling," and one of the swimmer's teammates tweeted, "U can't judge fitness from looks anyway and how about we don't criticize at all."
Fat chance. A couple of months ago, the coach of Britain's top heptathlete, Jessica Ennis, revealed that she'd been called "fat" by high-ranking officials in her sport. We are not, of course, talking about somebody who drives a forklift up to the Arby's buffet. You could play hopscotch on Ms. Ennis's abdomen.
The last time I checked, the London 2012 motto was "Inspire a generation," not "Inspire a generation to stick a finger down its throat and start saving for a boob job." Girls are not going to be drawn into the world of elite sports if they think they're being set up as targets. British triathlete Hollie Avil, who competed in the Beijing Olympics, quit high-level sports in May after she suffered a recurrence of an eating disorder brought on by a coach telling her she was too fat. "My health and happiness was at risk," she said. "Life is just too short."
Ah yes, too short – that's another reason to criticize a female athlete. Also too stumpy, too butch, too muscular, too big-nosed or too small-nosed or just somehow not hot enough, according to the Adonises of the couch. Rebecca Adlington, who's on Britain's swim team, told The Daily Telegraph she's going to avoid reading Twitter comments during the Games because so many of them are insults about her appearance.
The flip side is that while some athletes suffer the idiocy of strangers, others reap the rewards because they look good in a unitard or a beach volleyball bikini. Champion British cyclist Victoria Pendleton is an extraordinary person – fierce in her drive, completely open about her neuroses – but, if you watch TV, you'd think she was famous for her hair. Her conditioner commercial plays endlessly during British prime time. "I want to win as an athlete and shine as a woman," she says, as her glossy, dark locks tumble out of her bike helmet.
Every time I see that commercial I think, Why isn't Roger Federer advertising conditioner? Is it because he's too busy selling Rolexes and Mercedes and other trappings of haute virility? I, for one, would like to know how he keeps his hair looking so good. I'll bet he spends as much time on it as Victoria Pendleton. Maybe even more.Report Typo/Error

Local Playwright Debuts First Off-Broadway Play
It is not every day that a Rockaway resident gets to open a play in an Off- Broadway theater, but local playwright Barbara Hammond did just that last week, when her play, "Eva the Chaste" opened on July 6, the first of three plays in her "Eva Trilogy."
Hammond's plays and films, which were viewed and critiqued in Berlin, London, Australia, Paris, and New York City, have won numerous awards.
In 2007, Hammond was awarded the Director's Special Recognition Award at the San Francisco International Short Film Festival. Two years later, Hammond was awarded the Special Jury Award and was nominated for Best Production, Best Director, and Best Actress in the 2009 1st Irish Theatre Festival.
"Eve the Chaste" is being performed in the Clurman Theatre, 410 West 42 Street in Manhattan. After the performances on July 12, July 17 and July 19, there will be a panel discussion with the actor and playwright that will allow for audience participation.
The play, directed by John Keating and performed by Aedin Moloney, the actress and artistic director, is about a young woman who leaves her home in Dublin at age seventeen. Twenty years later, she decides to return home, when she is informed that her mother is ill.
Although the play revolves around the protagonist's motive for returning home, it's the thematic emigrant experience, according to Hammond, that "[the play] really is about … as well as many other things!"
"Eva the Chaste" is presented by the non-profit, New York-based company, Fallen Angel Theatre. This company's goal is to go beyond cultural barriers to create a new and diverse audience as well as universal themes in their writings. Tickets for "Eva the Chaste" and other plays can be found at www.telecharge.com.

Caballero-Roman collide August 24
By Francisco Salazar
Unbeaten Randy Caballero will fight Manuel Roman in a scheduled 10 round bantamweight bout on Friday, August 24th, manager Frank Espinoza confirmed to Fightnews.com on Wednesday morning. An intriguing bout between once-beaten lightweights could also land on that date as Michael Perez will take on Fidel Maldonado in a scheduled 10 round bout. The card, which would be promoted by Golden Boy Promotions, will likely headline a "ShoBox: the New Generation" card.
Although no venue has been officially named, the card could land at the Fantasy Springs Resort Casino in Indio, according to Gordon Hall, who is the Vice President of Production at Showtime. Hall, who is also the Executive Producer of "ShoBox: The New Generation," spoke to Fightnews.com on Friday evening.
Caballero (15-0, 8 KOs), from nearby Coachellla, stopped overmatched Jamal Parram in the fifth round of his last fight on June 23rd. Prior to that bout on March 16th, he won a 10 round unanimous decision over Jose Luis Araiza. However, the veteran Araiza exposed some of Caballero's defensive flaws in that bout.
Roman (15-1-3, 6 KOs), from Paramount, CA, also scored a knockout in his last fight on June 15th. He knocked out Cristian Aguilar in the third round in Mexicali, Baja California, Mexico.
He has mostly fought as a flyweight or super flyweight in his career. However, he has fought above that weight in his last three fights, where he has fought in Mexico. He is unbeaten in those bouts since he lost an eight round split decision to Anthony Villareal in April of 2009.
Perez (16-1, 10 KOs), from Newark, NJ, stopped Eric Cruz in the second round of his last bout on June 30th. Prior to that bout, he was forced to retire after the sixth round of his last fight against Omar Figueroa.
Maldonado (13-1, 11 KOs), from Albuquerque, NM, was stopped in the second round of his last fight on April 28th by Fernando Carcamo.

Copenhagen has long been leading the world in citizen-pleasing infrastructure, and the city has yet again outdone itself. In June, it welcomed the Cykelslangen, or Cycle Snake, an elevated cyclist roadway over the harbor to ease congestion.
This road is the latest addition to one of the most bicycle-friendly city infrastructures in the world. In Copenhagen, more than 50 percent of residents ride their bicycles to work. Portland, Oregon, with the most bicycle commuters in the United States, clocks in at 6.1 percent. Credit those numbers to a culture that encourages cycling, but also to an infrastructure that does the same, with traffic lights timed for bicycle speeds, cobblestone paths with smoothed shoulders, and parking systems that position unoccupied cars as a buffer between cycle lanes and moving traffic. So many people cycle that it's become a quaint issue to find parking for the two-wheelers.
Cykelslangen (pronounced soo-cool-klag-en) adds just 721 feet of length to the city's 220 miles of bicycle paths, but it relieves congestion by taking riders over instead of through a waterfront shopping area. "Underneath, there's a harbor front, so there are slow moving-pedestrians," says Mikael Colville-Anderson, CEO of Copanhagenize, a Danish design company. "It wasn't a smooth commute for the cyclists. The people on bikes want to get home and the pedestrians want to saunter." Pedestrian-cyclist conflict was never an issue, but cyclists couldn't pedal at a constant speed, and they had to deal with stairways. The new roadway, which runs one story above the ground, lets them move without interruption. At just over 13 feet wide, there's plenty of room to pass even a double-wide cargo bike.
The Cykelslangen winds around the harbor front, in juxtaposition to the grid-like architecture of the area. This element of the design is, for all its beauty, purposeful. Bicycle roads have a maximum allowable gradient to prevent riders from picking up too much speed, and to allow riders on cargo bikes to ascend easily. Making it curved adds length so the elevation changes can be gradual. The project cost 32 million Danish krone ($5.74 million). It was designed by architecture firm DISSING+WEITLING and built by Ramboll Group, an engineering company.
On top of its practicality, Cykelslangen makes riding a bike more fun and enjoyable. "You can see the Danish facade crack and people smiling," Colville-Anderson says. "Even the driest city planners are saying, 'this is so cool.'" Riders who take Cykelslangen in the mid-afternoon during the summer get to see the daylight filter between two nearby buildings. When viewed from the harbor front below, pedestrians can watch riders flicker as they move along behind the guardrails. "It tickles all your senses," Colville-Anderson says.
Now the city just has to tackle a new problem: Youths who think it's fun to dive off the Cykelslangen into the harbor below.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

Soooo...I take it tough love really works. Can I borrow your cannon?
wow, this has been real special, thanks everyone ,for posting the great pics. there is plenty of room for more if ya'll would like. i guess what i'm trying to say is, thanks.

Thanks for the laugh.
Great idea...so, thank you.
And yeah, every few years that trick guy comes up with a good idea himself.
Yes you could. I get enough from people I know. Please don't take it personal, I was just messin'. I apologize if I offended you.
Very welcome.............
This is a great thread. For some reason, whenever I thought of BP - I always figured for some reason he looked like Steve McQueen (from his avatar). Boy, I couldn't be further off....
i thought the same, brainpaint got it going on.
What's more - all these tougher looking guys (that's a compliment, BTW), kinda makes me feel like a pretty boy. :
I knew I would regret posting my pic.
i like golf too, by the way.....................
who's your fave?
before his back went out, fred couples was my favorite.
john daly is the people's champ.
tiger woods is a freak of nature
phil mickleson can make shots that you only see on playstation
vijay singh..........................wow, that is one good golfer there man.
I was hoping to be a Paddy Harrington fan. But he hasn't stepped up the way I wanted him to. Used to be Payne Stewart - loved his style, RIP.
As for current golfers who are actually playing well, I would have to say Singh. I thought he was playing better than Tiger many, many months before he was rated #1....
I'm only a casual fan - I just took golf up a couple of years ago and am only gradually playing more and more.
Allright...You asked for it mister.
You have officially been....PIMPED!
I guess this explains your avatar....but if you are going to try and feed the masses may I suggest a larger fish lol.
That shirt rocks Duane.
You look cool Joseephuss, plus it looks as if you are in a race for charity which is really great.
You know at one time I said you kind of looked like the girl from friends....but as others have said in that pic you do look like terri garr...and that is a compliment

In part one of kitchen renovation LeAnne Bunnell, principal of elle design, set out to address the functional requirements of this kitchen. This time let's get to the pretty part.
Our challenge was staying true to the homes' style while incorporating the homeowners' love of modern design.
We set out to create a style mix using traditional elements with an up to date approach. By combining traditional detailing with modern finishes and a muted colour palate, the kitchen is now a new classic.
Rather than the usual white or cream for the perimeter cabinets, we opted for a soft grey found in the bold granite countertop chosen for the dark stained maple island. Pulling a medium tone from the same stone we elected to switch to the consistent finish of a Caesarstone solid surface for the perimeter counters. This balances the texture and sparkle of the stunning marble mosaic back splash.
Speaking of sparkle… Polished nickel pendants from Hudson Valley hang over the island, a gorgeous modern chrome Kohler bridge faucet anchors the island and polished nickel pulls and knobs round out the bling. A standout stainless steel apron front sink, from Elkay references days gone by in a current finish.
Task lighting is layered through well-placed recessed lights and hidden under cabinet halogens. In addition to the gorgeous pendants over the island, we added eye-candy with a new nook light and shiny sconces with silk shades on the fireplace wall in the adjacent family room.
Style notes:
~Don't eliminate finishes or details just because they are outside your style. Adding a few unexpected elements makes your space more dynamic.
~Choose one strong element to showcase; then select finishes to support and complement
~Mixing finishes in a small space can be tricky. It's a fine line between interesting and over doing it. Keep a consistent thread through your selections.
I know that the homeowner's parties and dinners have always been dynamic and truly special, but now the surroundings match the sparkle and shine of the family that hosts these exciting evenings.
elle design, author of this feature, is a Interior Design firm in Calgary, Alberta. LeAnne would love to talk to you about designing a space expressly for you. You can also find a full list of all our global mentors [ who are top professional interior designers ] on our Mentors Page.

As a favor, Mr. Williams met with us at an inopportune time for him. He knew that we had some pressing issues to be discussed and he was very sensitive to that. He patiently listened to our concerns and our unique situation before responding. The impression that my wife and I got was that he genuinely cared and had compassion toward our situation. He then guided us to a few different avenues that we could take and the pros/cons of each. We knew that he was confident and competent to take on which ever scenario we chose.
The details of our dilemma are far too personal to go into, but without hesitation I would recommend Mr. Williams as an attorney. I might interject here and say that I am extremely cautious to recommend people as I do not want to misguide anyone. No hesitations here though. My wife and I know him as an attorney and have used him a few times. We also know him and his family outside "the office." He is a man of character. He is true to the law and he is true to what is right. A fine choice he is.
Posted by Keith & April
Keith Williams handled our private adoption earlier this year. He dropped everything he was doing and met us at the hospital on a Sunday afternoon on very short notice. Since this was our first adoption, we were very nerveous about the process. It was comforting to have an advocate of Mr. William's strength and caliber. He explained the process completely. He was very realistic about what to expect and relevent points of the law.
I highly recommend this quiet, intelligent man of integrity without reservation.
Posted by anonymous
He was prompt in cashing my check but that was it. It has been over 2 months since he cashed it and I have not heard from him once. I have called and after several attempts with no return call, I demanded from his secretary Donna to know what is going on. Apparently he got a non deliverable from the constable a month ago and failed to tell me. I have filed a complaint with the bar...

During an interview with France Football magazine, Cristiano Ronaldo said that "if I could, I would vote for myself for the Golden Ball," when asked about his candidates for the award given jointly by FIFA and France Football. The rules don't allow players to vote for themselves, but Ronaldo's personality comes to light when giving his opinion about the award, his rivalry with Lionel Messi, and his opinion on modesty. "I am the way I am, and I like it," said the Real Madrid star. Ronaldo acknowledged he is a little tired of being compared with Messi and blames the media for it. "They compare us constantly. The newspapers and TV channels think that they sell more that way. To be honest, it tires me a bit." Lionel Messi also accepted he was a little tired of being compared with Ronaldo. When asked about his personality on and off the field, the 27-year old is clear. "Too much humility is not good," he said. "In our country, in Portugal, when there is much talk of humility that really means there is vanity." "I play with passion for the ball, for the love of the jerseys I wear. If I did it for money, I would surely be in a different club," declared Ronaldo when ask about his interest in money. Ronaldo finally addressed the rumors of him being linked with PSG and said he does not think about that at the moment. "For their egos, all players are happy that teams such as PSG, Chelsea or Manchester dream of having them [in the squad]. But right now that's something [that] is not going through my head," concluded the Portuguese international. For more sports news, visit Terra.com.

The sun is shining. The temperature is rising. What a perfect day for a family outing to the beach. You begin to daydream about walking along the water's edge, maybe catching a ray or two while your kids are building the perfect castle. Suddenly, you are brought back to reality by a loud clap of thunder. As you look out your window, visions of a day at the beach are washed away by a summer rainstorm.
A storytelling tape won't put sand in your child's shoes and consequently all over your house (one of its advantages), but it can brighten your child's day with stories about animals who live in or near the water. So if the weather is keeping your family from the beach, here are several recordings that will bring at least a little part of it to you.
NEMO'S BIRTHDAY, by Ben Nussbaum, music by Arthur Steuer with Christina Ford, narrated by Marty Moran, Studio Mouse, 2004, $14.99 for board book with CD, 8 minutes; ages 1-3.
Toddlers will be drawn to the colorful, bug-eyed underwater creatures that are on their way to Nemo's birthday party. This counting book and CD set is part of Studio Mouse's Early Learning series that reinforces the basic building blocks of learning by having children sing and read along with Disney characters.
Youngsters will be engaged immediately by the adorable, upbeat song at the beginning of the recording. Even the youngest children are bound to clap and move to this catchy tune. Moran's energetic narration will continue to keep listeners' attention as they count the birthday guests who are arriving. This delightful, interactive audio book is bound to be a favorite with the younger set.
You can buy "Nemo's Birthday" at Borders or by calling (800) 228-7839.
LITTLE PINK FISH, by Elizabeth Falconer, Koto World, 2005, $13 for CD, 1 hour; ages 4-8.
Unlike Elizabeth Falconer's previous recordings, which consisted only of Japanese folktales accompanied by koto music, this one includes an original story, "Little Pink Fish," and an Okinawan tale, "Atabichi, the Hoppo-sitional Frog," with sanshin accompaniment. The sanshin is a traditional Okinawan instrument that symbolizes the unique tropical island mix of Okinawan music and culture.
These tales of determination, sharing, friendship and cooperation are presented as multifaceted performance pieces. Each story has musical accompaniment, voice and instrumental sound effects, a song, humorous touches and unique character voices. This results in fun stories that provide the audience with interactive opportunities, such as singing along or replicating a sound effect.
Youngsters will also enjoy Falconer's playful side. They are sure to chuckle when Little Pink Fish is told he can go to the "tidebrary" to find information on airplanes. They will also enjoy the topsy-turvy style (as in, "I do can whatever I want") that Falconer uses to tell "Atabichi, the Hoppositional Frog." She chose this style for this Okinawan tale because she believes it reflects the unusual mixture of cultures and languages on these islands, as well as the contrary nature of a frog—who does the opposite of what he is asked. It won't be long before your child tries to replicate this silly style of communicating.
"Little Pink Fish" can be purchased online at www.kotoworld.com or by calling (877) 430-1972.
PELICAN'S CATCH, by Janet Halfmann, illustrated by Bob Dacey and Debra Bandelin, narrated by Doug Thomas, Soundprints, 2004, $8.95 for paperback book with audiocassette, $19.95 for hardcover book with audiocassette, 10 minutes; ages 4-8.
This audio book is part of the Smithsonian Oceanic Collection that explores the creatures that live in our oceans and on the shores. The goal of this series is to foster an appreciation and understanding of wildlife and habitats in young children so they will grow to respect nature and the environment.
Youngsters will be fascinated as they follow a young brown pelican in its first few months of life. They will be intrigued that at an early age, pelicans are taught to be self-sufficient by learning how to fly and fish for themselves.
Listeners will be transported to the seashore with realistic sound effects, especially water sounds. Bob Dacey's and Debra Bandelin's realistic drawings will help readers visualize the scene.
Doug Thomas' clear, radio announcer-like voice makes the story enjoyable to listen to. It will also help beginning readers follow along with the printed story. This process is further aided by page turning signals on the first side of the audiocassette.
"Pelican's Catch" can be purchased at major bookstores or by calling (800) 228-7839.

August 2014 Challenge!
Welcome to the August Challenge:
'Childhood Favourite!'
What is the meal you associate with happy childhood memories?
Or What was the meal or food you loved most as a child?
Cook it up and share the photo and recipe with us and hopefully you will tell us a bit of the story too!
(Yes! If it is some processed junk food see if you can make a home cooked version! Challenge!)
I have no idea how I will judge these because how could one be better than another? But I will pluck someone out to set next months challenge! I hope there are lots of nostalgic wonders to choose from.

Good challenge, a trip down memory lane is good at any time, I will start the ball rolling with these - my mum called then "maids of honour" not true to the orginal recipe, line a bun tin with pastry add a dollop of jam and top with sponge mix then ice if liked. Made these yesterday and thought they looked good enough for a photo as they cooled on the tray.

Date of Stay: April, 2011
We planed to stay 2 weeks to visit relatives close by. When we finally found a site that was suitable, the owner was with us and kept asking about how many heaters we had. When it came time to hook up our 30A connection, he plugged it in. Later, I noticed our volt meter fluctuating and investigated. Found the female connector at the site was shot. Ended our stay! The sites we looked at were narrow and when you exited, you almost fell down a hill. Will never even consider recommending this Park!
Date of Stay: July, 2007
We have been staying at this park for over 10 years and plan to continue each October. Nice, clean park that is well maintained. The park is about 100' from the Klamath River and fishing for Steelhead & Salmon is fantastic (in season). There are fishing guides that stay in the park and are available for drift fishing on the Klamath River. During fishing season, reservations are recommended!

Your Doctor's Sleep Problem
MARISA WEISS: "Get enough sleep" is a common piece of advice that most doctors don't or can't follow themselves.
Office hours start early and end late—and are extended through on-call responsibilities through the night and on weekends. And now, with email and extended phone message systems, along required 24-hour response times, doctors are always "on".
Academic responsibilities and the need to keep on top of medical advances require a lot of late night work and reading. Plus often, the only time you have with your family, is at night.
As a result of all these factors, sleep is frequently shortened, disrupted and hard to protect.
Marisa C. Weiss (@drmarisaweiss) is the founder and president of Breastcancer.org. She is also director of breast radiation oncology and breast health outreach at the Lankenau Medical Center in Wynnewood, Pa.

The reign of King David is over.
David Ferrer, world No3 and four-time Heineken Open champion, was deposed by Yen-Hsun Lu, of Taipei, 6-4, 7-6 (4) last night in the tournament's biggest upset for some time.
That result seemed almost unthinkable before their semifinal.
After all, Lu had never even played in an ATP Tour semifinal before, let alone a final, in 13 years as a professional. His best result before this week in Auckland had been 10 quarter-final appearances.
Compare that to Ferrer, the King of Stanley St, who was appearing in his 73rd ATP semifinal and who had won his last eight semifinals. Ferrer had not lost a match in Auckland since 2010, the year American John Isner, Lu's opponent in today's final, won the Heineken Open.
Lu could barely believe it when Ferrer's forehand on match point drifted long. But he deserved to win and there's no reason why he can't beat the big-serving Isner, who overcame Spaniard Roberto Bautista Agut 3-6, 7-6 (2), 6-4 in his semifinal.
Lu has been consistently good all week and the fast surface at Stanley St seems to suit his game. The world No62 moves well, makes few errors and hits a hard, flat ball and he put Ferrer under pressure.
"It was better than good," Lu said. "I played perfect. It was a really amazing day.
"I will always remember this match and the way I played. I played the best tennis I have played over the last few years."
Ferrer, who was aiming to eclipse Roy Emmerson's record for the most wins at the Auckland event, couldn't say the same.
"It is maybe one of the worst defeats of my career," Ferrer said. "Today I made a lot of mistakes, like a junior."
Isner also made a high number of errors but somehow found a way to navigate his way past Bautista Agut.
He looked in deep trouble when trailing 3-5 in the second set. Up to that point, his serve lacked the pace usually seen at this tournament and his movement around the court was poor.
He occasionally favoured his sore ankle and his body language also made him look lethargic but Isner said that wasn't uncommon.
"I always look more tired than I really am," he explained. "I'm not playing possum, either.
Crucially, he broke when Bautista Agut was serving for the match to level at 5-5 and then easily won the tiebreaker 7-2. Suddenly the momentum had shifted and Isner's serve was also cranking into gear. He rifled down his quickest serve of the contest, a 231km/h bullet that equalled his fastest of the tournament, to set up match point and closed out the match in one hour and 50 minutes. final. He will now play the 17th final of his career but just the third outside America. An ice pack was applied to his troublesome ankle but Isner said it shouldn't be too much of a factor in the final. "It responds very well when I ice it and that's what I'm going to do the rest of the day," he said.
"But it comes to a point in the matches, the hour-and-a-half mark, when it starts to get a bit painful.
"I'm not really worrying about it. I'm just very happy I'm in the final and I have a feeling that it's going to feel just fine when I wake up in the morning. I'm just one match from winning this tournament. It would be amazing for me."
Not as amazing as it would be for Lu.

10th Annual Ballard Park Pumpkin Tour
October 9, 2012 by Marshall Slocum Inn
In the spirit of Fall and Halloween, the Friends of Ballard Park will be hosting the 10th Annual Ballard Park Pumpkin Tour. Pumpkins decorated by various members of the community including school groups, community groups, artists and others, will be displayed along the trails of Ballard Park on October 13th from 4:30 to 9pm. Parking will be available at Rogers High School, which is located across from the park. Ballard Park is Newport's only Nature Preserve, and this event brings in thousands of people every year. It is free and open to the public. It will be held rain or shine and guests are advised to bring flashlights to help guide themselves along the trails.
The week before the Tour, pumpkin carving parties are held across Aquidneck Island in preparation for the showcase. Pumpkins range from simple jack-o-lanterns, to elaborate carvings. After the Tour, before cleanup on Sunday the 14th, the public is invited to come and take the pumkpins home to display for themselves. This is a great event that brings the community together, and keeps the public interested in maintaining this 13 acre preserve.
Beer Coffee Cake
October 3, 2012 by Marshall Slocum Inn
So this weekend is the International Oktoberfest here in Newport. I thought it would be fitting to have a recipe involving beer for you all to make and enjoy whether or not you're able to celebrate downtown. This is a Bed & Breakfast, though, so I was hoping for a recipe your could enjoy for breakfast, but most recipes involving beer are for stews or chicken and what not. There's always beer bread, but thats kind of predictable. Thankfully, I found something involving beer for the most important meal of the day, so for all you beer lovers who want to bring some beer into your breakfast, here's a recipe for Beer Coffee Cake.
- 2 cups all-purpose biscuit mix
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ginger
- 2/3 cup beer
- 1 egg, slightly beaten
- Topping:
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1/4 cup chopped peacans
- For coffee cake: in a bowl, combine biscuit mix, sugar and ginger
- In a separate bowl, combine beer and egg
- Combine wet ingredients with dry ingredients, stirring lighly, just until moistened
- Pour mixture into a greased 9-inch round cake pan
- For topping: combine flour, sugar, cinnamon and pecans
- Cut in butter until the mixture is crumbly
- Sprinkle over coffee cake batter
- Bake at 400 degrees for 20-25 minutes
- Serve warm or cold

Need help with dresser repair
We have a dresser that was my husband's when he was a baby. However, over the years, the wood absorbed odors (mostly from being in storage) and nothing I did would clean it up.
So, we tried our best to exactly replace the dresser's backing and drawers while keeping the drawer facing. However, now the drawers don't sit correctly and fall out really easily. Not exactly what we want in the room of our crawling baby!
Any recommendations on fixing the dresser? By the way, it doesn't have drawer runners, but it never did and the drawers worked fin before.
You have too much of a vertical gap between the drawer sides and drawer opening. I would place blocks on the underside of the drawer opening from the case front to back. Allow about 1/4" to 1/2" clearance. You can stop these spacers short of the face frame by about 1" and they will never be seen.

The Exceptions
As we noted in Part II, you are not required to treat a transaction as a constructive sale if all of the following are true:
If you re-read Examples 1 and 2 in Part II of this series, you'll see the statement "you made no other transactions in the stock for the rest of the year and the first 30 days of the following year." You should now see the importance of this statement. If the proper moves are made, you can overcome the constructive sale rules. So let's see how the constructive sale rules work in real life.
Example #1: On May 1st last year, you bought 100 shares of ABC Corporation stock for $1,000. On September 3rd last year, you sold short 100 shares of ABC stock for $1,600. You held both of these positions until January 10th of this year. On that date, you close your offsetting short position for $1,800 and you keep your "long" position open until at least March 11th (at least 60 days). And, during that time, you don't enter into any other offsetting positions that would reduce your risk of loss on your original position. Since you have met all of the exceptions to the constructive sale rules, you have no constructive sale for last year. When you close your short position on January 10th, you'll recognize a short-term capital loss of $200 for this tax year. Your cost basis for your long position will remain $1,000, but your holding period will move to January 10th of this year.
Example #2: On May 1st last year, you bought 100 shares of ABC Corporation stock for $1,000. On September 3rd last year, you sell short 100 shares of ABC stock for $1,600. You held both of these positions until January 10th of this year. On that date, you close your offsetting short position for $1,800. But, because of the fluctuations in the stock, you sell your long position on March 1st (well before your required holding date of March 11th) for $1,500. You have now violated the exceptions to the constructive sale rules, and you must recognize the constructive sale of the original position last year (when the constructive sale actually took place), and not in the current year, when you actually sold the stock.
One very important thing that you should remember: Once you meet the constructive sale rules exceptions, you are then allowed (should you desire) to enter into another offsetting position. But, you'll have to be sure that you meet the exceptions for the new offsetting position.
Let's go back to Example #1. Since you met the exception for last year, anytime after March 11th of this year, you can again "short against the box" on your long position. But, to avoid constructive sale recognition for this year, all of the requirements must be met. And, you must make sure that you wait until after the 60-day "waiting period" has passed before entering into another offsetting position. Exception number three requires the waiting period.
Confusing? You bet. It can get very, very complicated. And, we have really only scratched the surface here, but this is certainly something that you need to understand should you decide that you want to "hedge" some of your stock positions.
In Part IV, we'll look at some of the other rules regarding constructive sales, and we'll also talk about how using options may or may not trigger the constructive sale rules. But if you can't wait for next week's installment, you can always read more about constructive sales in IRS Publication 550 at the IRS website.

Press Release: Queen AIDS Benefit in support of The Mercury Phoenix Trust - Thursday 5th September at One Mayfair
Roger Daltrey, Melanie C, Al Murray and more to celebrate Freddie...
Queen AIDS Benefit in support of The Mercury Phoenix Trust - Thursday 5th September at One Mayfair
"Freddie was a unique talent... A one off!" Roger Daltery
"He is the greatest performer of all time" Melanie C
As one of the definitive rock icons of our age, the late great Freddie Mercury's sound, charisma and influence is still felt in the entertainment world to this day, over twenty years after his sad death from AIDS related causes.
September 5th 2013 would have been Freddie's 67th birthday, and to mark the occasion, performers including Roger Daltrey, Melanie C, Alfie Boe and Al Murray will be taking to the stage at One Mayfair for an evening of comedy and rock 'n' roll to support the Queen AIDS Benefit, to raise money for The Mercury Phoenix Trust – fighting AIDS worldwide. House band for the evening will once again be fronted by Queen's regular musical director and keyboard player Spike Edney and his All Star band.
As well as the stellar line up of performances there will be an on the night auction with lots including a signed Katy Perry photo (with Katy dressed as Freddie!), a Taylor Swift signature red guitar and a box for 10 at the Royal Albert Hall. The main prize is a once in a lifetime 3 night stay in New York with VIP guest passes to the Tribeca film festival with a meet and greet with the legendary Robert De Niro, flights courtesy of Virgin Atlantic.
After the death of Freddie Mercury in 1991 the remaining members of Queen and their manager, Jim Beach, organised The Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert for AIDS awareness, the proceeds of which were used to launch The Mercury Phoenix Trust. Since 1992 the trust has raised millions of pounds and continued to spread awareness to help in the worldwide fight against AIDS. Click here for more info on the Trust.
One of the Trust's initiatives, 'Freddie For A Day', held annually September 5, is a fun, flamboyant extravaganza. The day is a celebration of Freddie and his life and asks simply that fundraisers dress up in some way as the great man himself. From a simple moustache to a full head to toe Freddie ensemble, a Freddie fancy dress party to a Freddie flash mob, anything goes… as long as each person dressing up asks family and friends to sponsor them to do so to help raise funds for the cause.
Freddie For A Day has been supported by the likes of Katy Perry, Matt Lucas, Jeff Beck, Ben Elton, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, Chris Evans, Red Bull Formula 1 team, and last year Rovio, the creators of 'Angry Birds', immortalised Freddie as a character within the world famous game. Rovio will once again this year be supporting Freddie For a Day and the Mercury Phoenix Trust, more news on that to follow.
To mark Freddie's birthday, the Mercury Phoenix Trust have also teamed up with Hard Rock Cafe's across the world to help raise awareness and funds offering prizes for the best dressed Freddie's as well as entertainment throughout the day.
