Doug Kass on Apple - More Bad Things Ahead
Posted by: Dheeraj Grover (IP Logged)
Date: January 23, 2013 09:20AM
Well-known investor and hedge fund manager Doug Kass of Seabreeze partners was on CNBC to discuss his views on Apple and why he is so bearish on Apple (AAPL). He thinks Apple is in for more bad times; this is just the beginning.
-- Don't believe results of the current quarter; they will not tell anything about the future of Apple.
-- Competition has intensified. Apple's iPhone is not the only good smartphone on the market and the iPad is not the only good table on the market.
-- He expects the first decline in year-over-year profit growth since 2003. He thinks it will miss the street estimates but will be above its own estimates.
-- He said the average selling price of Apple devices will continue to decline; the iPhone impact will be muted going forward.
-- What we need to watch for is gross margin. The company has guided a four percentage-point decline in gross margin. Analysts expect it to be around 38%, but there is no consensus on the margin going forward.

UP: Protesting officer evicted, taken to hospital
Rinku Singh Rahi was on a fast-unto-death in Lucknow against "corruption" in the social welfare department.
Lucknow: A Provincial Civil Services officer, who was on a fast-unto-death in Lucknow against "corruption" in the social welfare department, was allegedly forcibly evicted from the protest site by the police who tried to admit him to the psychiatric department of a hospital.
"In a late night operation, police and administration removed Rinku Singh Rahi staging fast unto death at dharna sthal and he was taken to hospital," Rahi's associate Praveen alleged. "Police took Rahi from one hospital to another and even attempted to admit him to the psychiatric department, but later released him when pressure mounted," Praveen alleged. Doctors at the psychiatric department had refused to admit him, sources said.
However, Additional Superintendent of Police (East) Vijay Bhushan said Rahi was hospitalised on the advice of the doctors. "As the doctors recommended that he should put on drip, we hospitalised him. There is no question of releasing the officer as he was not arrested...it is upto the doctors to discharge him or not," he said. He has since been discharged from a hospital.
Earlier in the day, the administration officials had made an effort to convince Rahi to call off his agitation, but he remained adamant. Rahi had been assured by the administration that his grievances would be looked into, official sources said. Praveen alleged that police even lathicharged Rahi's family members and supporters, when they protested against forced eviction.
An officer of PCS allied services, Rahi, currently posted as coordinator at Bhimrao Ambedkar Coaching Centre, Aligarh, had started fast unto death yesterday to protest against alleged scam in social welfare department during his posting as social welfare officer in Muzaffarnagar in 2008. "Rahi has left for Aligarh, where he is currently posted, but will continue with his fast-unto-death," Praveen said.
Rahi alleged that during his posting in Muzaffarnagar he exposed a scam to the tune of 30-40 crore rupees in the social welfare office. Rahi alleged that as a result of exposing the scam, he was attacked in which he lost his eye and jaw was broken. "I presented facts of the scam before the senior officials of the department, but none of them cooperated. Even information sought under the Right to Information Act have not been provided," he alleged.

News recently came out that Bay.ru was named as an 'exporter of the year' by the US Government's Department of Commerce (press release).
We congratulate Bay.ru and believe this development underscores the huge potential for e-commerce in Russia. Their whole business model is predicated on exploiting the frictions in cross-border retail between the US and Russia, some of which include:
- Major differences in prices, driven by customs and VAT exemptions for individual imports
- US companies which ignore the international market
- Russian consumers who prefer to transact in the Russian language, using Russian payment methods
- Scarcity of selection available from Russian retailers
While there is a movement underway from Russian e-tailers to pressure the Russian government into enacting policies to address the customs and VAT price distortions, the other factors are not destined to change any time soon.
Still, it is misleading to name BayRu as a major exporter when they are basically functioning as a logistics and fulfillment agent on behalf of Russian consumers. We might as well name FedEx, UPS and DHL as super exporters as well.

KEY LARGO -- Approaching Key Largo from the mainland, motorists on the 18-Mile Stretch have to pass by Gilbert's Resort.
That makes Gilbert's bar and restaurant one of busiest establishments in the Upper Keys, say the two elder bartenders manning Tiki One.
Over the years, Jim Mazelin and Rebecca Lewanski say they have never seen the crowds as big as this season.
And if it's beer they're coming for, it's more likely from the bottle than the tap.
"There's a lot of bottle babies here," Mazelin said.
Together, the two have more than 26 years behind the bar, and neither has plans to leave.
"There's no place I'd rather be working," Mazelin said as he and his cohort looked out over Jewfish Creek. "I've got no reason to want to leave."
The two say they love to serve vacationers from the north, especially when they get to hand a tropical drink like a Rumrunner to someone just escaping the snow.
Lewanski said she sends some people back home with a recipe or two so they can be tropical whenever they wish.
Working in the industry so long, the two have seen a lot of changes. Sometimes it is hard to keep up with new liquors and fads.
"Every year, there's more and more different products," Lewanski said.
She said the popularity of flavored vodkas has altered how people order their drinks. It is also increasingly rare for people to order old standards like a Manhattan, a whiskey drink topped with a cherry.
The craft beer craze also has made its way to the Florida Keys. Mazelin said new regional beers are coming through all the time.
"We have those interested in their local ales," he said.
Lewanski began working at Gilbert's 16 years ago when the property featured just one outdoor bar. Now the company has nearly completed construction of Tiki Four. Next to the tiki huts is a special parking lot for bikers, which has made their location popular among Poker Run charity events.
Aside from introducing visitors to the Keys, they say the seasonal customer is also what makes their job unique from other locations. Over time, the two have committed to memory the preferences of their winter patrons.
Generally, between the two, there is no drink they can't mix. But customers from other parts of the country can sometimes be challenging if their favorite drink has a different name in the south.
"Once we can find out what's in it, we're like that's called 'this or that,'" Mazelin said.
For her part, Lewanski's favorite drink is the Long Island Iced Tea.
"I just love mixing the alcohols together," she said, while mimicking the preparation with her hands.
Mazelin says over his 37-year bartending career he has no favorites; he just wants to make the customer happy.
"I've been bartending longer than some of these bartenders here have been alive," he said.

El Paso City Council holds special meeting to discuss regulation of electronic cigarettes
EL PASO, Texas - El Paso City Council held a special meeting Monday morning to discuss the regulation of electronic cigarettes also known as e-cigarettes.
E-cigarettes are battery operated cigarettes that turn chemicals and nicotine into an aerosol that is inhaled by the user.
City council members are considering passing smoking ordinances that will regulate where users can light up e-cigarettes and and where businesses can operate.
Currently in El Paso, there are no restrictions for users and smokers are typically seen smoking inside public places.
City health department officials said regulating the use of e-cigarettes would bring the El Paso up to par with other cities across the county that have already passed ordinances.
E-cigarettes could be treated exactly the same as tobacco.
In 2002, El Paso passed an ordinance that prohibited smoking in public places including the workplace, restaurants and bars.attery operated cigarettes that turn chemicals and nicotine into an aerosol that is inhaled by the user.

"Michael Peterson, from Antrim Catering, is the best. Wow, people thought they were eating in New York at one of the best restaurants there. Michael suggested going with a "family style" for our wedding dinner. It was wonderful. Michael Peterson is our local well-known chef. He prepared the feast. Michael is a native of the area. He attended the world's premier culinary college, The Culinary Institute of America, and trained in Paris at Le Grenadine. He and his wife Rebecca are owners of Siren Hall in Elk Rapids and Lulu's in Bellaire also. You won't go wrong going with Michael Peterson."

Zoo's new app designed to save wild orangutans
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo says saving the lives of wild orangutans is as easy as downloading a smartphone application.
The free app is a shopping guide that helps users find products whose manufacturers are certified by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil. The zoo says that the biggest threat to wild orangutans and other wildlife in Borneo and Sumatra is deforestation due to agriculture - primarily the production of palm oil.
"Palm oil is used to make items we consume every day like food and personal care products," Dina Bredahl, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo Animal Care Manager and champion of the Zoo's palm oil awareness conservation program, said. "Purchasing products that are manufactured by RSPO member companies is the easiest thing we can do to help endangered wild orangutans."
In 2011, Cheyenne Mountain Zoo was the first zoo in the world to join the RSPO. The RSPO is a non-profit association of international stakeholders from across the palm oil industry, including producers, processors, retailers and conservation groups. The goal of the RSPO is to develop and implement global standards for sustainable palm oil. To achieve certification, members must meet stringent environmental and social criteria and protect native wildlife, like orangutans, elephants, tigers and rhinos.
"When palm oil is produced sustainably, it minimizes the impact on wildlife, indigenous people and the planet," Bredahl said. "It's our responsibility to be smart consumers and realize the repercussions of our everyday choices."

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services posted the proposed rule on the Medicaid face-to-face encounter requirements. The proposal aligns the Medicaid time frames with the Medicare time frames (90 days prior to start of care, 30 days after start of care) while providing some flexibility to states to determine other aspects such as the content and form of documentation.
For Medicaid recipients, the certifying physician's documentation would state the attending physician has had the encounter with the physician. CMS believes "this enhanced communication will result in an improved transition of care from the hospital or post-acute setting to the home health setting."
That rule also clarifies that unlike the Medicare face-to-face requirement, states may not apply homebound criteria to Medicaid patients or confine the definition of home health services to services provided in the home.
HCAF will submit comments to CMS on behalf of the Florida home health care industry. Please submit your agency's comments to HCAF by emailing Kyle Simon, Government Affairs & Member Advocacy Director, at email@example.com. Comments are due by the close of business on Friday, August 5.
To be assured consideration, comments must be received at one of the addresses provided below, no later than 5 p.m. on September 6, 2011. In commenting, please refer to file code CMS-2348-P. Because of staff and resource limitations, CMS cannot accept comments by facsimile (FAX) transmission.
You may submit comments in one of four ways (please choose only one of the ways listed):
Inspection of Public Comments: All comments received before the close of the comment period are available for viewing by the public, including any personally identifiable or confidential business information that is
included in a comment. We post all comments received before the close of the comment period on the following website as soon as possible after they have been received: http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the search instructions on that Web site to view public comments.
Comments received timely will also be available for public inspection as they are received, generally beginning approximately 3 weeks after publication of a document, at the headquarters of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, 7500 Security Boulevard, Baltimore, Maryland 21244, Monday through Friday of each week from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. EST.

t a r o c h i p s
happy belated chinese new year (although it`s still going on for a few more days) to you guys! chinese new year is always one of my favorite times of year because it`s always the happiest memories i have as a child. unlike everyone`s pictures of red pockets (which i think is so tacky btw, it`s not what the new year is about!! although i do understand the envelopes have gotten prettier each year), my fondest memory of chinese new year is that every single year my mom heats up a big batch of oil and fries shrimp chips, taro chips, taro eggrolls, regular eggrolls, pretty much everything haha.
of course, i always eat everything and don`t bother to learn to make it. so this year, i told my mom i would do it all. let me tell you, these taro chips are a huge labor of love. i don`t believe in mandolins (they`re so scary) so i did as my mom always does and handcut them. it`s a huge betch to cut them soooo thin (if you don`t cut them thin enough, they won`t fry or crunch nicely..so it`s the most important part!!). after countless batches every single day, i think i`ve finally got it down. thanks mom for 26 years of labor that i didn`t appreciate til now.
they must all be this thin!! i like making them various shapes and sizes.
heat the oil on high heat. the trick to knowing when the oil is ready is sticking a pair of WOOD chopsticks to the bottom of the pot. little bubbles will float up the chopsticks. if the bubbles are too big, the oil is too hot. little bubbles means it`s ready! carefully add some taro into the pot. do a quick stir with your chopsticks to separate the taro. taro is starchy so don`t stir too much otherwise they will stick!
after a little bit, you`ll be able to see and feel the chips forming and getting harder. stir/flip them every once in a while so they will fry evenly to get a nice even golden color.
once they`re golden, take the chips out and lay them on a thick paper towel to soak some of the oil.
while the chips are still warm, season with salt to taste and toss the chips around to coat evenly!

Daniel Tammet FRSA was born in a working-class suburb of London, England, on 31 January 1979, the eldest of nine children. His mother had worked as a secretarial assistant; his father was employed at a sheet metal factory. Both became full-time parents.
Despite early childhood epileptic seizures and atypical behaviour, Tammet received a standard education at local schools. His learning was enriched by an early passion for reading. He won the town's 'Eager Reader' prize at the age of eleven. At secondary school he was twice named Student of the Year. He matriculated in 1995 and completed his Advanced level studies (in French, German, and History) two years later.
In 1998 Tammet took up a volunteer English teaching post in Kaunas, Lithuania, returning to London the following year. In 2002 he launched the online language learning company Optimnem. It was named a member of the UK's 'National Grid for Learning' in 2006.
In 2004, Tammet was finally able to put a name to his difference when he was diagnosed with high-functioning autistic savant syndrome by Professor Simon Baron-Cohen at Cambridge University's Autism Research Centre.
The same year, on March 14, Tammet came to public attention when he recited the mathematical constant Pi (3.141...) from memory to 22,514 decimal places in 5 hours, 9 minutes, without error. The recitation, at the Museum of the History of Science in Oxford, set a European record.
Tammet began writing in 2005. His first book, Born On A Blue Day, subtitled 'A Memoir of Asperger's and an Extraordinary Mind', was first published in the UK in 2006 and became a Sunday Times bestseller. The US edition, published in 2007, spent 8 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. In 2008, the American Library Association named it a 'Best Book for Young Adults'. It was also a Booklist Editors' Choice. It has sold over 500,000 copies worldwide, and been translated into more than 20 languages.
In 2009, Tammet published Embracing the Wide Sky, a personal survey of current neuroscience. The French edition (co-translated by Tammet himself) became one of the country's best-selling non-fiction books of the year. It also appeared on bestseller lists in the UK, Canada, and Germany, and has been translated into numerous languages.
Thinking in Numbers, Tammet's first collection of essays, is published in August 2012.
In 2008 Tammet emigrated to France. He lives in Paris.
He was elected fellow of the Royal Society of Arts (FRSA) in 2012.

In a word?
First off 2012 R2 is not a free upgrade – unless you have software assurance. On the server side it's a new version, not a free upgrade. Secondly there is no inplace upgrade option available. It will be a manual migration to an r2 version.
So not free.
No inplace upgrade.
You are not alone. But you should still be able to purchase this with no problem. Email me at susan-at-msmvps.com and I'll put you in touch with folks from Microsoft to push this through. As there's no reason Provantage shouldn't be able to do this through Friday.
CDW.com and Softwareone.com can both do this VL purchase.
Description of the Office 2010 update: August 27, 2013: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2825640/en-us
This update fixes some issues that occur when you install Service Pack 2 (SP2) for Office 2010.
Okay and those are? What?
May I say that Microsoft is increasingly not documenting updates and this is not acceptable.
The TechNet sku I personally used to purchase the three year TechNet subscription was JT9-00045
I purchased this from SoftwareOne.com (ask for John Carity 1-262-953-5266)
In AU you can go through Dickerdata.com.au
In just a few days, the window will close on the ability to purchase TechNet subscriptions. From then on a retail purchase it will be good for a year. As a partner your TechNet subscription will expire and not be renewed.
But if you purchase TechNet over a three year volume license spread payments contract you can lock in TechNet subscriptions for the next three years.
The trick is to buy one item of TechNet plus direct subscriptions and four of the cheapest thing in the product listing, either 4 Forefront cals, or 4 of
66J-05385 Microsoft® Win Pro DVD Playback Sngl OPEN 1 License No Level WinVistaBsnss $6.60 (reseller buy (ex) and $9.09 RRP (ex)
With that you can get a 3 year version of TechNet under a VL contract.
But you only have a very few days until 8/31 to do this.
It's not looking good that Microsoft will budge on the TechNet subscriptions. I think this is a stupid move on their part. But they aren't listening much to me these days.
Install Exchange 2010 sp3 update rollup 2 and if you don't have the extracted sp3 folder contents left behind you will find that the update fails with a 8024002D error.
Reextract the contents of sp3 out again
And try the update again.
(also see http://www.stevieg.org/2013/08/update-rollup-2-for-exchange-2010-sp3-prompts-for-install-files/)
Installed just fine.
I install Exchange updates all by themselves after all other updates are installed. Ensure you shut off the SBS manager.
But a note to Microsoft:
If you want to encourage us to install the new stuff, you might want to make the new stuff patch as well as the old stuff.
Starting 9/1 you can now do so. Also keep in mind that you don't have to sell 5 of the same thing. You can sell one of the thing you want and four more of the cheapest thing on the price list.
Add 4 cals of Forefront – with a sku code of 37D-00101 . Or sell a Windows 2012 Essentials server. Remember too that R2 of Essentials is expected to RTM at the same time as Server 2012 R2 is and will be available in October along with all the rest of the releases.
So still tracking some issues with KB2859537 the kernel update but I'm not convinced that massive amount of people are hitting BSOD's. I see people hitting the other issues of freeze up which appears to be a rootkit or … well… a hacked or cracked OEM systems – pirated systems.
Bottom line I'm not convinced this is a bad update, rather there are impacted systems.
The trigger are some files that are not Microsoft based, but hacked kernel files.
Not that I'm saying you should run out and patch Exchange. But if you do on SBS 2011 and if you've cleaned up the SP3 folder
Be prepared that it will complain about not finding the media for SP3.
"When attempting to install this update I receive "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." When I browse for the resource it is looking for exchangeserver.msi
If you removed sp3 folder (cleaned up after yourself) it's looking for that folder location.
"I extracted the Exchange2010-SP3-x64.exe to a temporary directory then could find the exchangeserver.msi and point the dialog at it. update then completed successfully. Post reboot , all seems Ok."

Eddie Redmayne shows you how to prep for 2016
Every week the world's best-dressed men get photographed looking superb while going about their daily lives, but what can us mere mortals learn about when it comes to style from their well-executed wardrobe choices? Here we bring you the greatest get-ups of the past seven days, and break down the style rules you can take away from each.
Ditch the white shirt
When in doubt, Will Poulter (and Prada) proves that grey is the most versatile suit colour that a man can own. And while a white shirt might be the first you'd reach for ordinarily, now's the season to try something different - and light grey's the colour to go for.
Prep for 2016
How do you make an Ivy League outfit even more American? Add splashes of red, white and blue like Eddie Redmayne.
Copy the current red carpet king
Over the past seven days, we'd say John Boyega has had the most stylish week of his life, turning out superb outfit after even more superb outfit on the Star Wars: The Force Awakens promo trail. We would go into why they're all so damn good, but we'll just let Boyega show you himself. Shout out especially to those sleek suede Christian Kimber sneaks he wore on The Graham Norton Show and the brown felt hat he wore at the Apple talk (a shout out to his co-star in Indiana Jones, perhaps?).
Rip it up, start again
If you've already got your smart indigo selvedge sorted, try out some ripped jeans. As you can see, they'll look great with those suede Chelsea boots you've invested in this winter...

Recently, I started reading Knuth's Art of Computer Science. To spice up the exercises, I am writing them out in Ruby. Thinking about the basic math of programming and how to implement it in a high level language like Ruby has been fun.
The evolution of programming languages has gone far since the book was written. We can use Ruby syntax to do multiple steps in an algorithm!
Also, this is an exercise in writing clean code. Some of the algorithms in the book are a bit hard to read in there pure math form. So, when I write them out in Ruby, I try to use as much expressiveness as possible without adding any clutter.
This is no easy task, and often times I have to walk away from an algorithm for awhile and come back to it, because I will have my head deep in the math and less in the code. Or vice versa.
I was showing one of my solutions to a colleague of mine, Doug Bradbury, who saw a better way in Ruby to solve the same problem I was with less lines of code and a higher readability.
So, I decided to share one of the problems, and in a few days, I will post my version of the solution. We can see different solutions in different languages and different styles. Go ahead and try it out.
Here is Euclid's algorithm for the greatest common divisor, as written in the book:
1 E0 [Ensure m >= n.] If m < n, exchange m < n.
2 E1 [Find remainder.] Divide m by n and let r be the remainder. (We will have 0 <= r < n.)
3 E2 [Is it zero?] If r = 0, the algorithm terminates;n is the answer.
4 E3 [Reduce.] Set m <- n><- r>
And here is a solution written in Ruby:
1 def are_whole_numbers?(*numbers)
2 numbers.each {|number| return false if number.to_i.to_f != number}
3 return true
4 end
6 def euclid(m, n)
7 raise "Must be whole numbers." unless are_whole_numbers?(m, n)
8 return euclid(n, m) if m < n
10 remainder = m % n
12 return n if remainder == 0
13 return euclid(n, remainder)
14 end
16 #Here are some examples
17 puts euclid(35.0, 40.0) #should be 17.0
18 puts euclid(119.0, 544.0) #should be 17.0
19 puts euclid(555.0, 666.0) #should be 111.0

9 Ways To Get Rid Of A Loser Date - For Her
I saw these on eHow and thought immediately of Amy and Reenie. They're amusing, but I bet you can do better... and probably have. Anyone?
I know one way. At a party in college I met this girl who had beautiful green eyes.
"Wow," I said, "great green eyes."
She smiled. Then -- for reasons unknown to me still -- I started singing the old 70s song, "Green Eyed Lady," to her. And I sang it with the same groovy 70s vocal affectations and inflections as the original.
"Green eyed lady, ocean lady
Child of nature, friend of man"
Her got a look on her face like she wanted to hit me. Then she turned and walked away without a word.
Maybe she didn't know the song.
Ok, here's the list:
1. Be strategic - different losers require different techniques. Some take more time than others to get the hint.
2. Bore him. Offer only the most mundane things about yourself. Look at your knees and mumble. Sigh a lot.
3. Stare blankly when he tells a joke, or fake laugh so loudly and hysterically that everyone around you stares.
4. Ignore him. Bring a magazine to read, the more unlikely, the better: "Highlights for Children," "Soldier of Fortune," "Rod & Custom." Hold your place on the page while you answer questions in monosyllables.
5. Call him by several different wrong names.
6. Show off some less desirable personal habits - grind your teeth, crack your knuckles, chew gum, sniffle and swallow loudly, take food from his plate, swap straws with him every fifth sip. Tap your nails on the table. Snicker for no reason.
7. Worry him. Say wistfully, "My finger is so terribly cold without a ring." Excuse yourself to call your psychiatrist or your mama.
8. Scare him. When he puts his hand on your arm or thigh, inhale sharply and start choking. Wave your hand around meaninglessly while he tries to figure out what's wrong. Do this every time he touches you.
9. Embarrass him. Ask the waiter if the restaurant has any live food. Dig through your purse; pull out random items and set them on the table. The more personal the better.

Weather now not nice, but normal in Oregon
It always seems to get worked out by the end of the season
Looking outside my office window this blustery Monday morning I saw a 30-foot-long fir branch come crashing down right where our landlord normally keeps his debris pile for such purposes.
Springtime in Oregon it is. It seems a bit like 'Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day,' but with a little rain thrown in.
I'd just gotten off the phone with St. Helens Golf Coach Dave Lawrence and learned that 'yes' they would be playing the opening Northwest Oregon Conference golf match at Wildwood in a couple of hours.
'Really,' I wondered.
Then it occurred to me, it's just a normal wet spring where the coaches do what they can to get in games, meets or matches. Before the weather abates, usually in April, all of the local ball fields will be tinged red by Turface, the most commonly used drying agent. Track meets will be held and when kids aren't running with water dripping off their noses, they'll be huddled under stadium roofs or erect canopies for warmth. Tennis matches will be cancelled or often played on freshly-squeeged courts, and mud-spattered rain gear will be the fashion-du-jour at many a golf match.
Hey it's Northwest Oregon and we should be pretty used to it by now. This happens most springs, with dry weather being a notable exception.
Hope springs eternal for ball coaches. Last week, most of the fields were playable. The Scappoose girls' softball field drains well, and coach Dean Smith had it looking season-ready last week. Once the current wet spell is over, the field can probably be made playable again with a few hours more work. The Scappoose boys' baseball team was practicing on the jayvee field and the current wet storm will set back getting the varsity field ready anytime really soon. Coach Robert Medley will be out there trying, though.
In St. Helens, both the baseball and softball teams had their fields nearly ready to go on Friday after rolling them Thursday afternoon. New St. Helens baseball coach Randy Voght even held a Lemon-Black scrimmage on Friday. This week will be a bit of a setback for both those fields.
Track manages to run in almost any condition. St. Helens is slated to participate in the Polar Bear Invitational at Westview on Wednesday, while Scappoose will host the Anderson Relays on Thursday. Those events are for certain.
Not certain is the postponed Scappoose baseball game with La Salle. It hadn't been rescheduled as of press time. This time of year is trying for an athletic director and baseball coach in Scappoose's case. Medley's retort to the situation was 'I'm not a weatherman, Brewington.' It's probably just as well he isn't, the forecast for the rest of the week is not good.
Tuesday's games for baseball and softball hadn't been cancelled just yet, but they seemed unlikely. As did those slated for Wednesday.
At some point if the rain lightens a bit, schools may try to go to some all-weather-turf fields. We're not there just yet, but coaches start to get antsy when they've had two or three games cancelled and still haven't played. They all want to see where their teams are at, and who does best in what position, and how the hitting is, etc.
St. Helens boy's and girl's golf teams were to host their own invitationals Monday and Tuesday at a very windy Wildwood.
It happens every year. Games eventually get played. Sometimes they have to be moved. The weather usually turns a little better. It's the toughest situation athletic director face during the year.

Suggestion for Fit Day Improvement

Hi Bastzine,
Like you, I make almost everything from scratch and it can indeed be difficult to hunt down all the ingredients in their raw forms. One thing I've noticed over the years of using FitDay as well as the USDA's National Nutrient Database (which functions similarly to FitDay) is that you sometimes have to search for a raw food in its plural form if the singular doesn't work at first, or vice-versa.
So, when I search APPLES in FitDay all kinds of processed food appears, but a search for APPLE comes up with the raw food at the top of the list. Similarly, the USDA's database comes up with all kinds of crazy food-like substances when I search for STRAWBERRY, but a search for STRAWBERRIES produces the real deal.
If all else fails, I highly recommend using the "Browse" function until you are super familiar with how this site works. However, there are a few examples when combining "Browse" with "Search" is your best option on FitDay. Try browsing through FRUIT & JUICE-->BERRIES, for example. You'll find there is no selection for STRAWBERRIES, RAW, but a search for STRAWBERRIES will work. In other words, have patience and give yourself some time to figure out the site's quirks.
I also recommend checking nutrient values against the USDA database if you are unsure whether or not you've selected a food in its raw form. It is also fascinating to see the nutrient values for foods in super "high-def", if you're into that sort of thing anyway. Here's the link to the database
(hopefully not a problem to post this since it is USDA research, not a competing site -- I think FitDay uses the same data for many foods).
Hopefully that helps! Happy logging!

Historical Views of the Rockaways
From The Rockaway Museum
by Emil Lucev, Curator
Dedicated To The Memory Of Leon S. Locke
During the late 1950s and early 1960s, Rockaway's Playland Amusement Park promoted the Rockaways, as well as its "Biggest Little Amusement Park in the World."
Other amusement proprietors, from restaurant owners to those who ran parking lots, gave very little to promotion programs, or nothing at all, but at the same time they did profit from what others did and contributed.
Playland's management arranged bus and water transportation to the Rockaways, as well as express rapid transit trips to the Beach 98 Street elevated station of the IND Line.
But on the Jamaica Bay front, between Beach 97 and Beach 98 Streets, there was a Playland dock, a bus parking area and a lot of room to park cars.
Today we see the Playland Transportation Depot; the old printed photograph is not of the best quality, but what is there can be seen clearly, if you will, and the name of the vessel is "State of Pennsylvania."
In the center of the picture is the gas station and convenience store on Beach 101 Street and Beach Channel Drive. The building to the left is one of the old Seaside Hotels.
In our time, the Bay Towers hi-rise is on the left (the site of the old Marsell Bungalow Colony) and on the right is Beach Channel High School.
When Robert Moses rebuilt the Crossbay Veterans Memorial Bridge in the late 1960s (opened 1970) this depot was destroyed, for a bridge that didn't have to be opened for bay traffic on Beach Channel.

As for it's pedigree, ie - being a German ZX3, I just happen to have the original window sticker which states quite clearly the county of Entry is Switzerland, and the registration from that first sale is Germany.
Hope this clears up some of the confusion!!
Well, I don't mean to bust you down so hard, but give it up man. It's a really cool car, but it's not euro. In fact I know this because the car has cup holders. I just returned from my honey moon in Switzerland/ Germany, and I stumbled upon the strangest but very serious law. You can not drink (anything) while driving. Also eating and talking on a cell while driving will get you into serious trouble. For this reason auto makers rarely put cup holders with in drivers reach in autos there. Don't beleive me? Check it out for your self.
I spent almost my whole honey moon scouting out and taking pics up close of other euro focis. Now, my new wife is really pissed off at me and won't give me the camera so I can show you guys pics. Can't say that I blame her, but my point is that WE (FF) are obsessed with every detail of these cars. We always smell out the dog crap that we stepped in before we smear it around in our precious cars.
And yeah, I guess you could say that you swapped the console out.
Honey, why are you driving so fast? "I just want to get home so I can ____ your brains out!"

Contrary to a proposal passed in the House to bring all illegal hotels in the city under the building bylaws dating back to 1976, the municipal corporation is going to seal 15 of these establishments in 72 hours.
Issued on Saturday evening, the sealing notice also covers two Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee (SGPC) serais in the Golden Temple Galliara; this when the MC has even requested the Punjab government to seek legal opinion in this regard.
On Saturday evening, the MC teams were distributing copies of the notice to the owners of these hotels that had come up in violation of the building bylaws. The municipal town planner notice has asked the owners to stop the use of these buildings within the given time limit.
The development has stunned the owners, and now they threaten to go on strike from Monday. "The notice is issued on the directions of the Punjab government special investigation team (SIT)," said mayor Bakshi Ram Arora.
At Mata Kaulan Sangat Niwas and Sri Guru Gobind Singh Serai, both run by the SGPC, there is no mandatory space for parking vehicles. Amritsar deputy commissioner Ravi Bhagat, who is a member of the SIT, said 125 hotels around the Golden Temple do not fulfil the bylaws. "Of these 125, 15, including the two SGPC serais are in the walled city area," he added.
In 2010, Punjab Human Rights Organisation (PHRO) had filed a public-interest petition about the illegal hotels within the Golden Temple periphery. "On the one hand, the government talks of fortifying the tourist infrastructure in the city, and on the other hand, it plans to raze the symbols of the past," said Parminder Singh, a hotelier in the walled city area.

After talking with a pregnant colleague the other day about the ups and downs of parenting two children AND juggling our chaotic lives (she's a month away from her due date and feeling nervous about #2), I got to thinking a little about how one of the trying and also rewarding things about having more than one child is that you end up never really parenting the same way twice--and you shouldn't. I do know some parents out there who seem to parent the exact same way for each child (brother slept through the night at three months; therefore, by god, sibling shall, too), but most of the parents we know have adapted and refined their repertoire of parenting techniques to fit the developing needs of each child. In doing this, you soon realize that you are capable of so many different ways of responding to your children's needs. They are varied and can be frustrating, but in the process you learn so much more about yourself and what you're capable of--as a parent and as a human being.
I started out intending to try the same things on my daughter that we'd used with L.--the sling, for example. I always called L. my sling baby. From the tender age of six days, he was tucked into his sling and walked around the house, and he was in heaven. The sides of the cloth enclosed him almost completely, and as I walked with him I could feel the delicious weight of his small body swinging in front me. He would make little chirping sounds in his sleep. He could sleep for hours in the sling, happily oblivious of the world around him. Fast-forward from that moment to 3-1/2 years later: I didn't try the sling on T. until she was almost two weeks old. Trying to get her to sleep one morning,, I decided to try putting her into L.'s old sling. Surely this would work! I imagined the chores I would get done, moving around the house with T. fast asleep against me. But as soon as I tried to slide her in, she stiffened her body and flailed out her arms in desperation. Each time I tried to lower her inside she stiffened; then she cried. My people-person daughter, who from such an early age sought out the faces of those around her, wanted nothing to do with the solitary space the sling represented. I had to come up with different ways to try to calm her into sleep.
My son's propensity to be highly over-cautious and anxious has protected him (and us) from having to worry too much about typical fears, and lulled us into complacency with T. We never childproofed much of anything when L. was a toddler. One sharp sound of warning or gentle instruction about the dangers of an outlet or of a passing car would move him to tears and he would be forever wary from that day on. T., however, is always pushing the limits. I find myself worrying more about her as she gets older; wishing too that she wouldn't be so friendly with everybody. We spend time trying to teach her ways to be adventurous and cautious at the same time; we constantly watch her gleefully running from us in public places, and inwardly we worry about what she'll be like when she hits her teens.
I can hang back a little with T., parent her a little differently. I do activities with her I could never do with L. at that same age (take her to story times and delight in her clapping and interacting with the children around her), yet I do things with L. that I will probably never do with T. (our quiet, contemplative nature walks; the careful crafts; the endless amounts of history and science we read together, his still-wet-from-the-bath head resting against my shoulder). And I parent the two kids together differently, too, then I do when I have one child to myself. I will forever keep my memories of tiny L. in his sling, and the ones I have of T.'s wide gummy baby smile at a lady in the grocery checkout line. They are such different children--that's just the wonderful magic of it all.

Possible Gift to SUNY Linked to Tuition Legislation
A possible gift to the State University of New York at Stony Brook is yet another factor in the ongoing debate over giving SUNY and the City University of New York new flexibility on tuition rates and more control over the use of funds raised with tuition, The New York Times reported. Gov. David Paterson, with strong backing from the university systems, is pushing the legislation, which is facing legislative skepticism. Now word is circulating that James Simons, a former mathematics professor at Stony Brook and already a major donor, may give as much as $150 million, but only if the tuition bill passes, the Times reported. Simons agrees with the governor that more control over tuition policy is essential for the state's universities to improve. Some legislators are not happy about the linkage between the gift and the bill. Deborah J. Glick, an assemblywoman who opposes the legislation, told the Times: "I don't think it's out of bounds for someone to say, 'I want to make a really strong commitment.' But we're not supposed to be considering legislation on the basis of what could be viewed as some quid pro quo."

Probably as good as any.
Ammunition from the major makers is all highly engineered and carefully assembled. They have different types of bullets, based on slightly different theories of how bullets should work and technologies, but I have serious reservations that any one brand or type is better or worse to any serious degree. Now, some types of ammunition and some individual guns may not cooperate - which is not a reflection on the gun or the ammo. So one should test fire various types to make sure it functions in the gun in question.
After making sure it functions, I generally decide on cost. Or sometimes the cool factor.

Arsène Wenger believes Laurent Koscielny is good value for his place in France's provisional Euro 2012 squad.
The defender won his first cap for Laurent Blanc's side against the United States back in November and has been named in Les Bleus' list of 12 players who ply their trade outside France.
Although Koscielny is not guaranteed a place in Blanc's final squad for Poland and Ukraine, Wenger insists a chance is just reward for the 26-year-old's excellent campaign.
"He is right to say he has progressed," said the Frenchman. "He has done well and got stronger with us and deserves a place in the provisional squad.
"I think he is ready for the Euros. The problem for Laurent is that he doesn't have a lot of options in that position, but he has gained in authority and is ready to play."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

The first Republican candidate for governor has dropped out. State Representative Paul Kohls of Victoria announced in an e-mail to supporters that he's decided to suspend his campaign for governor.
"Although I have continued to gain political and financial supporters since our party's October 3rd convention, it has become clear to me that the activists are lining up in much greater numbers behind some of the other candidates in the race, and there continues to be speculation about others who may enter the race. I certainly continue to believe that I'm the strongest Republican to take on the DFL candidate in 2010, but I also believe that this decision belongs to our party's delegates, not to me.
In light of this and after much prayer and deliberation, I am making the very difficult decision to suspend my campaign for Governor."
In a statement to the press, Kohls didn't say if he was backing another candidate. He also didn't specify in the statement if he'd run for the Minnesota House again.
Kohls just told me he isn't backing another candidate at this time. He also said he isn't sure if he'll run for reelection in the Minnesota House.
There are currently eight other Republican candidates running for the open seat. Governor Pawlenty said in June that he will not seek a third term.

Pet Net
One night about two and a half years ago, Max Sutter was a drunk, depressed University of Texas student thinking of a way to get his ex-girlfriend Ofelia back.
Her mixed-breed pooch, Baby, was getting up there in years. Sitting in his house, the inebriated Max, ever the entrepreneur, was thinking of a way to replace Baby postmortem with the same mix of dog. His brainstorm: create a nationwide pet database from the 6,500 American animal shelters. That way, he'd be bound to find a duplicate Baby -- one that might bring his girlfriend back.
Okay, so he was intoxicated. Still, the idea stuck, and about a year later he reserved the Web address www.petadoptions.com for $70. Since then, he says, he has invested considerably more money in the project.
A limited site is scheduled to finally become reality this week. Adorned with a bright blue paw and the mantra "Bringing People and Pets Together," it is designed to enable Web page visitors to search for a pet or shelter. There are links to shelters and pet-related services, such as volunteer opportunities, pet lawyers, animal rescue groups, breeders and even pet agents.
Sutter, 25, says he and a staff of about five will work out of a Galleria-area office, contacting shelters to offer the database for free. Shelters log on and enter details about animals up for adoption. It will be financed by business ads with varied rates. A firm basically buys a contract for about $5,500 a month; the price increases if the site gets a certain number of hits. Sutter hopes to break even within nine months of the launch.
If it sounds like a great deal on all fronts -- shelters, pet lovers and business profits -- there are ample questions about Sutter's ability to make it work.
No one has achieved a commercial Internet pet billboard on such a grand scale: Sutter wants all U.S. shelters to eventually interact with one another at the click of a mouse.
Then there are the competitors. Other commercial sites, one of them backed by the industry giant Petsmart Inc., are up or are on the way to linking various shelters and available animals. In all likelihood, Sutter will be just joining the pack.
And many shelters survive on modest budgets without powerful Internet-friendly computers, or, like the Houston Humane Society, they simply don't have computers with modems.
The Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals of Houston declined Sutter's offer. Martin Acuna, SPCA computer systems director, says the group ran into problems when it tried a similar venture earlier. The Internet adoption site didn't give the SPCA total control of its content, and the venture was advertiser-driven, an ethos issue for the nonprofit SPCA. Its shelter, which handles about 40,000 animals a year, plans to post pets on its Web site, www.houstonspca.org, within a year.
Sutter was formerly a volunteer at the Citizens for Animal Protection. That group has some pets listed on its Web site (www.hal-pc.org/~cap4pets) and will not appear on Sutter's page.
The national scope could provide a wide variety of animals, but logistics could complicate actual adoptions. For example, a Houstonian could browse the site and want a pet that turns out to be sheltered in New York. Transportation costs and related fees could run more than $250. On top of that, many shelters will not release animals for adoption unless they can meet potential owners and verify they are suited to caring for the animal.
Sutter remains optimistic. He says ten shelters have signed on and about 50 more will soon follow. He would like to have 1,000 on-line within a year.
Fort Worth's Metro Port Humane Society is one Sutter enlistee. Director Janice Flynn says the organization already uses two similar out-of-state services. "We can't have too many outlets for our animals."
Sutter believes more animals can be processed by shelter workers and more people can have access to information about Mittens, or Rover, or Mr. Ed -- the site will include horses. He says he wants his technology skills to help save animals from being euthanized. "I just don't like them being put to sleep. It sucks."
Although the Web site seeks donations, he says he has adequate financial backing, courtesy of The Sutter Family Foundation. The local nonprofit is geared toward pet assistance and is supported by his family. His father was a successful real estate broker, and his mother is a commercial printer. Sutter worked in oil and gas industry data management during and after college.
"All I really care about is finding loving homes for animals. We think of pets as little people with fur," he says. "Even if my company didn't make any money out of this, it's a great world experience."
At least Sutter and Ofelia are back together. And the inspiration for the Web site, Ofelia's dog Baby, is still very much alive.

BBC Review
The American vocalist marks her French success with a wholly Gallic LP.
Kathryn Shackleton 2010
Fortified by an arts award from the French government and her success across the English Channel with 2007 collection Breakfast on the Morning Tram, American vocalist Stacey Kent goes the whole hog and sings her follow-up album completely in French.
Raconte-Moi… is an intensely personal collection of chansons françaises dedicated to Kent's grandfather. He fled from Russia to the US and enjoyed a spell in Paris en route, passing on to her his love of the French language.
La Vénus du Mélo is the foot-tapper here and at times Kent glides between notes with a Melody Gardot-like edge. Her trademark intimate and breathy vocals, perfect diction and spot-on timing suffuse the album and Les Eaux de Mars is another stand-out track. The Jobim bossa nova has French lyrics by Georges Moustaki and builds gently, layering soprano sax on piano on guitar.
Kent's voice is as distinctive as Ella's, and its ingénue quality suits these understated pieces. Of particular recommendation are Jardin d'Hiver, by young singer Keren Ann, and Mi Amor, a quietly emotional tango.
With voice the focus on every track, the delicacy and sophistication of the rhythm section could go unnoticed. John Parricelli lends some beautiful guitar lines on Les Eaux de Mars and the title-track. Graham Harvey's piano, Jeremy Brown's bass and Matt Skelton's drums are a finely controlled backdrop to the main act, but these top jazz musicians are sadly underused. Barring Harvey's short stretch-out on Sait-on Jamais? there isn't really any improvisation.
No doubt it was a personal challenge to sing a whole album in French, and the result is as relaxing as a massage. Kent is a great craftswoman, but if she moved further out of her comfort zone she could be a great artist too. A sabbatical with Polar Bear might do the trick.

Trees wrapped in blue reflect fountain
The assignment for the final art project in his Introduction to Studio Art class called for an "ambitious" project that "demonstrates your increased conceptual and technical sophistication about art," said Michael Katz, adjunct art professor. He specified to his students that "the subject, form, content, medium, size, approach and mode of expression are entirely your choice."
Sophomore Ana Porth (pictured), biology major and art minor from Nashville, Tenn., was inspired to provide "something fun to look at" for fellow Stetson students especially as everyone prepares for finals. In her "ode to the fountain," Porth chose to wrap many of the palm trees surrounding Holler Fountain with blue fabric, picking up the color the fountain was painted at the beginning of the 2013-14 school year.
"Ana enjoys making ambitious, complex, large artworks," said Katz. "She likes the experiences the process provides. She has discovered that the work you enjoy doing usually produces the best results. Ana's site-specific wrapped trees installation is an example of that. It demonstrates her successful understanding of the topics of the Intro to Studio Art course, while making a work of art the community can enjoy."
In the Nov. 7, 2013 story, Holler Fountain holds more than water featured in Stetson Today, the history of the bright blue of the fountain was explained. "The aqua blue color is not 'new' but rather the original color of the cast iron fountain," explained Al Allen, associate vice president of facilities management. The original color was discovered when the fountain was renovated in 2001, and it was that original, very bright blue hue that greeted students when they arrived on campus in fall 2013.

text: http://suratiundhiyu.wordpress.com/ Yann Arthus-Bertrand (born March 13, 1946 in Paris) is a French photographer, journalist, reporter and environmentalist. He founded the Altitude Agency in 1991, which was the world's first press agency and images bank specialising in aerial photography (500,000 pictures taken in more than 100 countries by more than 100 photographers). In 1994 Arthus-Bertrand started a thorough study on the state of the Earth sponsored by UNESCO. As part of the study, he made a picture inventory of the world's most beautiful landscapes, taken from helicopters and hot-air balloons. The book from this project, Earth from Above ('la Terre vue du ciel') sold over 3 million copies and was translated into 24 languages.

iDatank, read I-the-tank for the record, can be considered somehow an adventure game, though it's more about a 3D environment puzzle with slight RPG touches (namely, upgrades). In advance, a lot of levels and, here's the best of it, a high replayability thanks to its multiple walkthroughs. However, keep aside standard conventionalisms, because it's an indie game in heart and guts. A lovely 3D indie game, for sure, but far from what we are used to call "casual gaming": controls will feel odd even clumsy, plot's about aliens and robots, and you may be left with a strange aftertaste when you end a level: have you overcome the evil genius who designed the game, has it all been mere luck ot was it what you would have expected for?
On the other hand, iDatank isn't a rosebed for gamers. There are few if any options regarding gameplay and game's performance should be improved further, as it likes to badly lag when you've been playing for a while. In a nutshell, all cards are on the table: this is an all-in game you may like it or not, but won't leave you cold even when it's set in outer space.
This is the complete version, absolutely recommendable once you end the lite one.

BC teachers will be voting on whether or not they support the BC Teachers' Federation with a full walk out beginning as early as June 16th.
Parents and students are concerned a potential increase in job action could mean missing provincial exams, not getting report cards, and even missing post-secondary application deadlines.
The government's response to this: asking the labour relations board to make certain teacher services essential in the event of a full walk out.
BCTF president Jim Iker says the government's partial lockout should also be to blame for interrupting exam schedules.
The Labour Relations Board is expected to start reviewing the government's essential services application.
The vote on teacher support for a full walkout is Monday and Tuesday.
