TFCOTW is the first proper album from bass lunatic Collins in nearly a decade.
And the Bootzilla clearly still commands clout, judging by the cameos. There's Ice Cube, Snoop and Chuck D. There's Rev Al Sharpton, Samuel L Jackson and Jimi Hendrix, though the latter obviously knew nothing about it. There are collaborations with Bobby Womack, Sheila E and George Clinton. All driven by the heavy funk bass of Collins. Which is never a bad thing.

Wildlife Conservation South Africa is now closed for 2016.
Roll your sleeves up and get actively involved in conserving one of the worlds most endangered species!
Tracking/monitoring of rhinos
Game capture and relocations (seasonal)
Reserve management and bush clearing
Maintenance such as fence monitoring and road repair
Poaching prevention techniques
Buffalo monitoring and habitation
Spot the reserves elephant population ( at certain times of year - you might get involved in Elephant habitation research)
The project is dedicated to conserving rhinos through active tracking and monitoring on a daily basis. The project needs enthusiastic and dedicated volunteers to help with this very important project to save these animals.
The work will be exciting and rewarding and will offer the opportunity to have a once in a lifetime experience! Be prepared to dive in and get involved as the project is quite physical and you must be ready to roll up your sleeves to help. You will be spending long periods of time out in the wild and so a love for nature and the outdoors is a must.
It is proven that rhinos which are tracked and monitored regularly are far less likely to be poached than rhinos that are not monitored. Rhino horns and elephant tusks have been associated with Chinese herbal medicines and have been the main reasons for the majority of all the local black and white rhino deaths putting them back on the endangered species list.

Rep. Maxine Waters doesn't expect to pose for a photo with President Donald Trump anytime soon.
In fact, the California congresswoman plans to boycott any meeting, event, ceremony or public event with the president, at the White House or even in her home district of Los Angeles.
"I don't see myself meeting with him, sitting down with him, believing anything he would say or even respecting anything he would say," Waters said sternly to The Associated Press. "It would not be honest on my part to go to any ceremonies with him or to pretend I am having a decent conversation with him."

Speaking on an opinion poll conducted by Anna's team, Arvind Kejriwal stated that the response to the Jan Lokpal Bill was overwhelming with as many as 85 per cent of the people favouring to bring the Prime Minister under the ambit of the Lokpal Bill.
Kejriwal commented, "The interim poll shows that majority are with our version of the Lokpal Bill. The people's view is that the Jan Lokpal Bill version should be accepted. What is to be seen is what (Union Telecom and HRD Minister) Kapil Sibal sees. There should be a public debate. There was an overwhelming respose of the people in Kapil Sibal's constituency."
Further stating the details of the poll by the team, he said that polls were conducted in Sibal's Lok Sabha constituency of Chandini Chowk and Amravati Lok Sabha constituency in Maharashtra. The findings said that almost 98 per cent of the people favoured the Jan Lokpal Bill.
Arvind Kejriwal asked in the press conference, "There has been a huge support for Jan Lokpal Bill. The question is that does the Government's Lokpal Bill gets the desired support of the people? If the Government is not listening to the people's view, is it democracy?"
Anna Hazare declared in the press conference that he would go ahead with his plan to fast from Aug 16 at Jantar Mantar and said that he would court arrest if he was not allowed to do so. He added, "The intention of the government is not right."

When writing a rule in JavaScript, you can always assume that there is an object named
logicContext, which has the following properties and behaviors. Key concepts are described below; see this (
LogicContextI) for detailed API documentation.
Logic Context makes visible key aspects of Logic Execution, it's a good idea to review that.
The verb tells you what the current logic iteration is trying to do: insert, update or delete. This is distinct from the initial verb (see below) because the current logic iteration may have been kicked off by a rule.
For instance, an inserted row (such as an Order) might be updated later in the transaction by Item logic. For the Order, the verb will be INSERT initially, then UPDATE as the Items are processed. But initialVerb will remain INSERT.
if (logicContext.verb == 'UPDATE')
log.debug('We are updating');
Indicates the verb initially executed on this row. Consider inserting an Order and several Items. The item logic will update the Order, but the Order can determine that it was initially inserted in this transaction. For example, you might want to bypass auditing logic when an Order is inserted.
if (logicContext.initialVerb == 'INSERT')
log.debug('This started as an Insert transaction');
if (logicContext.logicNestLevel > 0) // Do something only at the top level of nesting
Use Case Name
A rule can set this property to make debugging easier. The given name will appear in the logs, which can be helpful in understanding the flow of a transaction.
logicContext.setUseCaseName('Insert log record');
User properties
These should be used with great care, because they can introduce some subtle and non-obvious dependencies between rules. Nevertheless, they can be useful in some scenarios.
User properties are only set for the duration of the transaction: as soon as the transaction ends, all user properties disappear. The next transaction, even for the same API key, will not see these values.
logicContext.setUserProperty('myFlag', true);
if (logicContext.getUserProperty('myFlag)
log.debug('myFlag is true');
The value of a user property can be anything.
log.debug('Customer balance is: ' + currentObject.balance);
This will output the given message to the transaction's log, using the User Logic logger. There are two other variations of this method:
logFiner and
logFinest, which use a lower level of logging.
Interacting with data
An Object Model is created for each Base Table when you connect Espresso to your database. This model is automatically updated (e.g., if you change the schema) when you reload your schema.
We use the term "object" to refer to the Java Script objects created as part of the Object Model. So, in Logic Demo, you will have Objects for
purchaseorder, and so forth.
If you are using Multiple Databases, be sure to prefix your table name with the database name (e.g., main:Customer).
This will return single bean if found, null if not found, or throw an exception if not unique.

What's wrong with "my vagina"? Wait! Keep reading! This isn't a rant or revelation about periods, cystitis or any of the other abundance of delights of womanhood (I'm saving those for another time). I mean on a lexical level: why do we make such a hoo-hah about naming our, er, hoo-hahs?
Research commissioned by women's cancer charity the Eve Appeal found that 65 per cent of the 1000 women surveyed felt uncomfortable using the words "vagina" and "vulva". Almost two in five of those aged 16 to 25 — most of whom grew up in the era of internet porn — were so squeamish that they resorted to using euphemistic code names such as "lady parts" and "women's bits" when discussing their gynaecological health.
On interrogation, friends of mine who shunned the term vagina claimed it was too "clinical" and too associated with "things going wrong". In other words: vaginas land you in hospital — knickers off, legs in stirrups, next to a doctor brandishing a speculum.
So I think it's time to reclaim the word vagina. In the same way that rent-a-gob Katie Hopkins doesn't want her daughter India playing with children with supposedly downmarket names — you know, the misspelt ones, or those named after, er, places (Hopkins didn't really think that one through, did she?) — I'd prefer my vagina didn't inadvertently hang out with other vaginas that have been poorly re-christened.
It's not that I have a problem with synonyms. As a journalist, 43 per cent of my job is coming up with alternative words for things. And there are some good nicknames for vaginas out there. One that will perhaps never be bettered was dreamt up by the Times columnist Caitlin Moran. In her memoir-cum-polemic, How to Be a Woman, she suggests "the Saarlac Pit", because "however much it wants Han Solo inside it, it never quite gets him".
A Twitter user told me she called hers "The Duchess of Cambridge" or — in more informal situations — "Pippa". I think she was joking but really hope she wasn't. A friend who wishes to remain anonymous to preserve good familial relations tells me her sister used to call hers "faloola". After a particularly nasty urinary tract infection, she rebranded it "Fallujah".
Then there's "fanjita" which sounds like a celebratory Latin American dance. The palindromic "foof" is fine. Or there's always the word that James Naughtie will never forget rhymes with Jeremy Hunt — although that's probably best not used in front of children or on the Today programme when introducing a Cabinet minister.
Not all names are created equal, though. "Pussy" seems to me like a corny, porny Americanism and is tarred by its association with wimpiness — though I think Fifty Shades of Grey would have been dramatically improved if there had been less talk about Christian Grey-flavoured popsicles and more about Ana's "personal pussy riot in her pants".
Every time I hear the term "honeypot" I throw up a little in my mouth. "Hole" is horrid too — implying a vagina is something that needs filling in. Worst of all, though, is the vulgar "gash" — a gaping wound, the kind that causes soldiers in war films to grab their trench-buddy's shoulder, look him in the eye and tell him "Go on without me". And don't get me started on "clunge" or "penis fly-trap".
The problem isn't really the idea of having a synonym, though — it's when that synonym is used as a euphemism due to anatomical embarrassment. How can so many of us still be so scared of a biological term? That timidity extends to a lack of knowledge about our own bodies. For the Eve Appeal's research also showed that only half of women aged 26 to 35 could accurately label the vagina. It reminds me of a GCSE biology class in which a friend marked "ovaries" next to a man's testes.
Today is the first day of Gynaecological Cancer Awareness Month — it needs a whole month because so many women are still uncomfortable discussing these issues. Nearly a third of women aged 16 to 35 admitted that embarrassment stops them going to the doctor with gynaecological concerns. As Helena Morrissey, the chairman of the Eve Appeal, noted: "It is important to promote straight talking about the signs and symptoms of gynaecological cancers to women of all ages, and this survey has highlighted just how far we still have to go to make this happen."
A good start would be an ability to say "vagina". However, there are a few signs that the word is starting to gain acceptance. Shailene Woodley, the Divergent actress and Hollywood's resident hippie, recently revealed that she likes to sunbathe naked to give her "vagina a little vitamin D". And in the final episode of The Honourable Woman, M15 grandee Dame Julia Walsh declared: "Perhaps it all came down to the fact that in a room full of pussies, I am the only one with a vagina."
So isn't it time we called a vagina a vagina?Reuse content

Easyjet misleadingly implied that Ryanair customers would end up in the wrong city by listing airports that were often some distance from their destination, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) ruled.
A train poster for easyJet read: "Who loves flying you to the place you actually booked?". A box underneath headed "Ryanair" listed: "Barcelona Girona, Paris Beauvais, Milan Bergamo, Venice Treviso. More text in a heart under the heading "easyJet" read: "Barcelona Barcelona, Paris Paris, Milan Milan, Venice Venice."
Ryanair complained that the ad was "denigratory" by implying it delivered customers to the wrong destination.
It pointed out that Beauvais, Bergamo and Treviso had been officially designated as airports for their corresponding cities by the International Air Transport Association (IATA). Ryanair advertised Girona as "Girona (Barcelona)" to make clear that it was a destination in its own right and not a designated airport.
Defending the ad, easyJet said it did not dispute IATA designations but believed that customers are more interested in the proximity of airports to their destination cities.
Easyjet said it was "trying to make the point that easyJet flies to primary airports and Ryanair, in many cases, to secondary airports which are often significantly further away from the city which they serve".
Upholding the complaint, the ASA said it was concerned that customers could be led to believe they would be unwittingly flown to a more remote airport or even a different destination.
The authority said: "We considered the challenging tone of the headline "Who loves flying you to the place you actually booked?" combined with the implication that Ryanair misled customers and flew them to airports different to the ones to which they had booked was denigratory."
It ruled the ad must not appear again in its current form.
Easyjet's UK general manager Paul Simmons said: "It is a well-known fact that easyJet flies to major airports whereas Ryanair serves out-of-town airfields which can be a two-hour bus ride away from your destination.
"While we are disappointed by the ruling, which is based on a technicality, we respect the ASA's decision and will not repeat the advert in the same form."

Jago: The Rise of the True Kai
Book by: Anon Amous
Status: In Progress
Genre: Action and Adventure
Chapter1 (v.1) - Cashel (~35), Tiberius (~35) - Unknown Planet
Part 1: 1,000 Human Years Ago
Prologue: Flash-forward
1. Cashel (~35), Tiberius (~35)
"Cashel… where's Nema?" Tiberius asked, quickly calculating his motives while staring at the caked silver blood that could only come from a type of species known as a Mechanite.
Cashel's body tensed at the sound of her name. His discomfort caused Tiberius dismay as he glanced around behind Cashel for any sign of their Mechanite companion.
"Where is she?" he asked with a stern whisper, his voice carried by a breeze atop the high rock plateau.
Their eyes met.
Cashel's eyes… his eyes said it all. He had seen these hostile eyes before, hundreds of years ago, when they first met. He thought and hoped he would never see them again.
Cashel knew there was no point in hiding the truth from him.
"I killed her" was his simple response, with eyes that never faltered.
Tiberius shook his head, "No… you couldn't have…"
Cashel's hand went to his hip and held up a steady sword, "Where are the stones?" he demanded.
Tiberius stood, staring at his friend, the friend that only a moment ago he would have easily given his life for him if needed. How did it come to this?
His chest tightened. The gray blood shimmered on Cashel's body… Nema's blood. A light breeze crossed their paths as the last of the sun's rays disappeared into the ground, dulling the silver blood into a coating of gray paste.
"You… killed her?" he whispered, letting his words soak into his tortured heart.
Tiberius swiftly withdrew his sword and gripped it tightly by his side. None of this made sense, but he was determined to uncover the truth and reveal Cashel's true intentions.
"All of this for the stone of power?" he scowled. "I'll make you regret betraying us…" He took off the pouch that was slung around his body and held it out in front of him. "Here are the three stones that mean more to you than your own friends."
Cashel reached into a pocket in his vest and took out a glowing violet stone.
It was the closest the four stones have been to each other since their separation, many decades ago. Once put back together, a powerful object would be formed, granting a single person the means to rule the galaxy and infuse with newly formed stone, Vo, as one.
Re-shaping the war-torn galaxy was their goal, their plan. For decades they fought together for this ideal, and now the galaxy's defining moment would be decided by this final battle.
"Tiberius..." Cashel urged, "Give me the stones…"
Tiberius' eyes narrowed on him as he set the three stones safely aside. "You'll have to kill me for them."
Cashel readied himself against his only friend left in the galaxy. "Then I will…"

Really good start! :D I wonder who Nema is. Cashel is quite ferocious in this unlike the first book but I remember you saying that it's going to be more dark and action. Yay! :D I like that sort of stuff. I'll be flicking back to see the next chapters :D
Awesome first chapter!
It's very similar to Science Fiction. I don't read that genre anymore. But still the story is well crafted. This is Anand Bose from Kerala.
A sweeping beginning! You plunge right into action, and set the stage for a story that promises to be epic yet character-driven at once. Impressive start!

Westland Recycles More Than Two Million Pounds in Two Months
Published: August 31, 2009
Residents Rally Behind New Curbside Recycling Program, Which Saves the City Money and Financially Rewards Participants
WESTLAND, MICH. (MONDAY, AUG. 31, 2009) — With a new curbside recycling program, Westland residents have sent 1,184 fewer tons of waste to the landfill in just two months, and Mayor William Wild couldn't be more proud of his city's residents. "That amount comes to 2.4 million pounds of waste diverted," Wild said. "When communities come together for the greater good, they can accomplish amazing things. The City of Westland has witnessed that firsthand."
The city debuted Recyclebank® on June 28, after more than 25,000 single-family households received new recycling carts. A rewards program, Recyclebank encourages people to recycle by awarding households for every pound of material recycled. Households receive 2.5 Recyclebank Points per pound, which can be redeemed for gift cards, unique offers, and savings at local and national retailers, restaurants, grocers, and more.
Before the program's debut, Westland averaged about 90 tons (180,000 pounds) a month at drop off recycling locations. The new cart and the rewards-for-recycling program have dramatically changed that figure.
"2.4 million pounds recycled is an astonishing amount," Wild said. "To put that figure into perspective, your average family sedan weighs 3,000 pounds, which means residents have recycled the equivalent of 790 cars. Financially, the city is saving money too—every ton recycled saves Westland money in landfill tipping fees."
Local businesses have benefited as well. "We see that a majority of Recyclebank members use more than half of their earned Points with local rewards partners," Recyclebank co-founder and CEO Ron Gonen said. "This provides economic development and involving the local business community in the city's recycling effort."
Recyclebank members have redeemed Points for unique savings at Rite-Aid, Olga's Kitchen, Dick's Sporting Goods, Ruby Tuesday, and Buffalo Wild Wings Grill and Bar. Other Westland businesses in the program include The Westland Shopping Center, Heartland Marketplace, Nankin Hardware, Marvaso's Italian Grille, and Palace Supermarket. National partners include Coca-Cola, Kraft Foods, Target.com, and CVS/pharmacy. There is also an option to donate Recyclebank Points to charities and to local school environmental programs.
Another key to the success of the program is single-stream recycling. "With single-stream recycling, families can put all of their recyclables into one recycling container without having to sort paper, plastic, tin, and glass separately," Westland Department of Public Service Director Kevin Buford said. "The more households that recycle, the more they are rewarded for their efforts. Single-stream recycling with Recyclebank has helped Westland to become a better steward of the environment while stimulating the local economy and putting a little money back in the pockets of our residents."
"It is our responsibility to be caretakers of the Earth," Wild added. "Our new recycling program with Recyclebank takes us one step closer to ensuring that our city, our state, our planet, will be healthy for future generations."
Westland residents must activate their Recyclebank account to redeem Rewards. Visit www.Recyclebank.com or call 1-888-727-2978 for more information. Pick up for Westland residents occurs bi-weekly. For more information on what can be recycled, contact the Westland Department of Public Service at 734-728-1770 or visit www.CityofWestland.com.
Recyclebank services more than one million people across 20 states. By cumulative recycling efforts, those households have recycled more than 200,000 tons of material, saving more than 130 million gallons of oil and close to 2 million trees.
Recyclebank is a rewards program that motivates people to recycle. Using the Recyclebank proprietary three-step process Recycle, Record, Reward™, we quickly and easily measure the amount of material each home recycles and then convert that activity into Recyclebank Points that can be used at hundreds of local and national rewards partners. Recyclebank is simple to implement, market-driven, and proven to work; saving municipalities' money and rewarding citizens for their environmental stewardship. Kleiner, Perkins, Caulfield and Byers, RRE Ventures, The Westly Group and Sigma Partners are institutional shareholders. Ron Gonen, the co-founder and CEO, is the largest individual shareholder. Recyclebank is headquartered in New York City. Recyclebank was recently honored as a 2009 World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer and has been named as a 2009 Champion of the Earth by the United Nations.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day was celebrated nationwide yesterday, when my good friend, Bishop Harry R. Jackson Jr., wrote an outstanding article on the legacy of the civil rights leader and preacher. Click here to read and comment on Bishop Jackson's column.
Bishop Jackson is the guest editor of the January-February issue of Ministry Today, now available.
With the theme of social transformation, the issue coincides with the political season, which many are saying is the most important presidential election of our lifetime.
Because the primary season leading up to the presidential election is upon us, I wanted an issue on political activism. But Bishop Jackson exceeded expectations. He invited other outstanding authors such as Chuck Colson, David Barton and Tony Perkins to write, and the end result is something much more powerful—an issue on social transformation, which involves being involved politically. Read it and be transformed, so you can in turn transform society.
You can read my "A Call to the Church For Social Transformation" introductory article about Bishop Jackson in the magazine's latest issue by clicking here.

1. Been there, done that, and it did not end well China edition. Once again, China forgets there is a macroeconomic trilemma. From the Wall Street Journal:
China's central bank is effectively anchoring the yuan to the dollar, a policy twist that has helped stabilize the currency in a year of political transition and market jitters about China's economic management....
The newfound tranquility may not last: The focus seen in recent weeks on stability against the dollar, whether it goes up or down, means pressure on the yuan to weaken could get dangerously bottled up, potentially bring bouts of sharp devaluation.
Pegging an exchange rate, tinkering with domestic monetary policy, and allowing some capital flows can be a dangerous game to play. Chinese officials should stare long and hard at the picture below and recall how by ignoring it they created a crisis back 2015.
2. St. Louis Fed President James Bullard notices the U.S. economy is falling off of its trend price level path in a recent speech.
3. George Selgin says the FOMC plans to shrink its balance sheet is seriously confused:
In short, the Fed's normalization plan calls for it to prop-up banks' demand for cash, as a prelude to reducing the supply of cash! That means tightening and more tightening. The rub, of course, is that conditions may never justify so much tightening. What's more, no plan for Fed normalization can work that would prevent the Fed from meeting its overarching inflation and employment targets.
4. Peter Ireland on what we can learn from the FOMC debates as seen in the latest minutes. Among other things, Peter notes the following:
Digging into the details of the FOMC's debate reminds us, as well, of important lessons from economy history. Participants who warn that low unemployment today raises the risk of higher inflation in the future are organizing their thoughts around the idea of the Phillips curve, which describes an inverse relation between those two variables. One lesson from history, however, is that while data do often support the existence of a statistical Phillips curve, its fit is not nearly strong enough to serve as a fully reliable guide for monetary policymaking. The limitations of the Phillips curve approach became clear, for example, during the 1970s, when chronically high unemployment was accompanied by rising, not falling, inflation. Today, we may be seeing something similar: unemployment is below 4.5 percent, yet inflation continues to run below the Fed's long-run target.
In fact, as other participants in the debate point out, inflation has been below target for the past eight years. If one accepts Milton Friedman's famous dictum, summarizing historical experience that "inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon," it is difficult to escape the conclusion that, despite an extended period of very low interest rates, Federal Reserve policy over this period has been insufficiently, not overly, accommodative. This echoes another lesson from the past. Milton Friedman, Anna Schwartz, Allan Meltzer, and Karl Brunner all concluded, likewise, that very low interest rates during the 1930s accompanied, and indeed were the product of, monetary policy that was consistently too restrictive.

Perhaps it's a case of, if you let one get away with it they'll all try it. Don Henley is suing clothing maker Duluth Trading Co. over an ad for their Henley t-shirt. Now a Henley t-shirt is a men's collarless pullover so Don doesn't own the rights to that name. But he may still have a case because in their ad they used a clever play on words…
"Don a Henley and Take It Easy"
First of all Don doesn't sing that Eagles song Glenn Frey does and it was written by Jackson Browne. But besides that, Don Henley doesn't like them using his name without getting permission. The lawsuit claims the ad is a misrepresentation of his name and may cause confusion among customers who might think the musician is involved with the company.
A spokesperson says "This kind of thing happens with some degree of frequency and the members of the Eagles always defend their rights, often at great expense". "Both Mr. Henley and the Eagles have worked hard, for over 40 years, to build their names and goodwill in the world community". "They pride themselves on the fact that they have never allowed their names, likenesses or music — individually or as a group — to be used to sell products. Their names are their trademarks and, therefore, they take offense when an individual or a business tries to piggyback and capitalize on their art, their hard work and their goodwill in the public arena."
The lawsuit seeks to stop the company from using his name and is seeking "damages and other appropriate relief."
What do you think? Should he let it go or does he have every right to prevent others from making money off his fame without permission?

I never got anywhere near Nato HQ. As soon as we stepped off the tram about half a mile away, we were hemmed in by a large force of police. A young woman was dragged out from among us, handcuffed, and pushed into a police van. I asked an inspector what was going on. He said he had ordered us to disperse "10 minutes ago". I said I hadn't heard him. He said, "That's because you're old and hard of hearing." I realised this was some sort of mass arrest. I was then manacled, with my arms behind my back, and heaved into the van. At the police station, women were separated from men and put into a "hold", a barred cage inside a room, far too small for 30 people. It was extremely hot, without ventilation, and the 30 men next door were in a similar condition.
After 12 hours we were released. We were told that we had been subjected to what is called in Belgium "Administrative Arrest", as authorised that morning by a decree of the Mayor of Brussels. Also, it seems that Nato had declared itself a "war zone" within the city of Brussels and had thereby sealed off its HQ against any attempt to exercise any democratic right to "criticise and question".

Morning Gold Market Report
Compiled 05/02/12 6:00 AM (CT) Statistics: London Gold Fix $1,652.50 -$8.75 LME Copper Stocks 238,950 tons -2,600 tons GOLD MARKET FUNDAMENTALS: (6:00 AM CST) A sharp jump in European unemployment to record high levels has gold and the metals complex under early pressure. While the markets were seemingly cheered by manufacturing data from the US and China earlier in the week, there continues to be a general fear of slowing dogging most physical commodity markets. At times this week, gold was clearly getting a lift from soft US data and the hope of additional Fed action, but that potential theme has been downplayed by Fed dialogue this week and that in turn could leave gold prices vulnerable to upcoming data. Therefore private jobs data, (which will be released early today) could set the tone of the gold trade for the session. The bull camp in gold will probably attempt to shape weaker data into a positive again today, but with the private jobs estimate this morning, potentially set to come in above the average estimate for Friday's monthly numbers, that could actually be seen as a positive economic development this morning. In other words, the gold trade this morning might be forced to temporarily deviate from hopes of near term US Fed assistance, but the gold trade might also be able to pick back up on that theme into and through the US Factory orders result due out later in the session. In other words, the second set of US scheduled data could rekindle slowing fears again, as expectations for Factory orders call for a decline from the prior period. Comex Gold Stocks yesterday afternoon were placed at 10.999 million ounces for a single day gain of 103,462 ounces. OUTSIDE MARKET DEVELOPMENTS: (6:00 AM CST) Asian equity markets were higher overnight possibly as a catch up to the gains forged in US stocks on Tuesday. European markets were mostly higher and that was surprising considering that Euro zone jobless figures reached a fresh record high. US stock markets were showing a mixed early trade today, but it could take something positive from US data or from corporate earnings reports to countervail what feels like a minor early profit taking bias. There will be three Fed speeches throughout the trading session today and those speeches could provide surprise market reactions.

King & Spalding will launch its second office in California when it opens the doors on its San Francisco outpost on 25 March.
The move is part of the all-out assault to expand nationally and internationally that has seen the firm open six offices in the past two years.
Head of King & Spalding's IP practice group Courtland Reichman, who is relocating to California from Atlanta to become West Coast managing partner, says the firm is aggressively developing its national profile. It is "not credible", Reichman says, for King & Spalding not to have a presence on the West Coast.
"We're a national law firm, close to the top 25 in the US in terms of revenue, and we need to be in California," he says.
The firm's ramping up on the US West Coast coincides with the fifth anniversary of the launch of the London office. King & Spalding's London office grew from 18 to 22 lawyers in the past financial year. Sixteen of its London lawyers are UK-qualified, while three are full equity partners.
The City office was launched prior to a strategic review spearheaded by King & Spalding chairman Robert Hays in 2006.
Reichman says Hays's nine-month review "re-energised" the firm and put national and international expansion at the top of the agenda.
"Robert identified a handful of practices for the firm to focus on and brand itself around," says Reichman. "To achieve the kind of targets and growth we want meant we had to grow via lateral hires. There's a huge pool of talent in California we've not been tapping into and our competitors are. For us not to be on the West Coast is not credible." Last month King & Spalding launched its first office in the region with the hire of a two-partner, seven-associate team from the Menlo Park office of Perkins Coie.
The two new Silicon Valley partners are Paul Andre and Lisa Kobialka, who both specialise in IP and high-tech litigation.
King & Spalding's expansion into California follows new offices opened since December 2006 in Frankfurt, Charlotte, Riyadh and Dubai.
"Asia is the next frontier," says Reichman. "Are we credible as a truly international law firm if we're not there? We recognise the need to be there and are currently evaluating options in Asia. It's self-evident – you need to be there."

Engine Creative has continued their long-term collaboration with Top Gear by playing bingo with The Stig.
Yep, you heard me correctly, to coincide with the launch of Series 19 of Top Gear on the BBC's Entertainment, HD, Knowledge and America channels back in February, Top Gear launched a free second screen app ingeniously titled 'Top Gear Bingo!'
The App, available on the iPad, encourages Top Gear viewers watching the TV show across the world to study the programme closely and mark off their bingo card as soon as they see or hear items on their second screen App. Correctly spotted items enable users to score points and share their scores via Facebook.
Our part in the campaign was to film and produce the supporting television commercial that was screened across Europe, Asia and the US to promote the Top Gear Bingo! App. Once The Stig started playing the App we couldn't get him out of his comfy chair so we airlifted him out of his living room and dropped him in the studio to record his dexterous game play for posterity. You can see the results here…
As we identified in our previous posts, viewers' browsing habits are changing with more and more consumers watching television with a trusty second screen device (i.e. mobile, tablet, laptop) to hand and the Top Gear brand continues to evolve and find new ways of engaging with their growing number of global fans (the UK version is watched in 214 territories by 350 million people and is currently dubbed into eight languages: Farsi, French, Spanish, Italian, German, Polish, Hungarian and Russian!)
Hey, if the Top Gear Bingo! App is good enough for The Stig, then it's good enough for us!

Location: Animal Parasitic Diseases Laboratory2012 Annual Report
1a. Objectives (from AD-416):
1) Determine what genetic and genomic features distinguish Trichinella spiralis from Trichinella murrelli. 2) Utilize genomics to determine if microsatellite loci can be used to trace zoonotic outbreaks of Trichinella spiralis. 3) Determine the genetic features that account for the epidemic spread of certain strains of Toxoplasma gondii.
1b. Approach (from AD-416):
Investigations will be conducted to clarify how infections in wildlife influence the safety of pastured pork. Accordingly, first identify heritable differences between two related species of Trichinella, only one of which (T. spiralis) severely compromises pork safety by evading swine immunity. The other, Trichinella murrelli, predominates in North American wildlife but fails to thrive in swine. By comparing the genomes of these two parasites, the intent is to establish a basis for exploring what makes pigs so especially vulnerable to T. spiralis. Secondly, develop the means to trace chains of transmission of Trichinella spp. Using markers which have already established the long-term dispersal history of T. spiralis (to the Americas in the pigs and rats brought by European colonists), researchers will attempt to discriminate instances of persistent on-farm transmission from sporadic introductions of T. spiralis to swine herds. Finally, the genetics of T. gondii reproduction will be characterized. Both sexual and asexual reproduction can occur in T. gondii, and available data provide conflicting evidence as to the relative importance of each reproductive mode. These incongruous data leave in doubt whether this parasite evolves as an assemblage of distinct lineages, or whether it more closely resembles a coherent, interbreeding species. Additional data are needed to better resolve how T. gondii propagates and evolves. These results will help determine whether particular strains pose elevated food safety risk will help anticipate this parasite's evolutionary response to preventative interventions.
3. Progress Report:
Progress was made on all three of this project's objectives, which support NP108 Food Safety Component 1: Food-borne Contaminants. To commence assembly of the Trichinella murrelli genome, short sequence reads were successfully organized by scaffold assembly to homologous regions of the Trichinella spiralis genome as a proof of principle and to guide ongoing assembly and annotation efforts. To improve the ability to trace outbreaks of Trichinella spiralis, additional variable genetic markers (containing microsatellite repeats) were validated and shown to discriminate among field isolates. Analyzing these markers also demonstrated that in nature, animals can become infected more than once, but that they seldom ever do. This finding is relevant for considering the possible efficacy of vaccines intended to safeguard veterinary and public health. Finally, new insights were gained on the global diversity of Toxoplasma gondii, including a comprehensive description of parasite diversity using all extant systems for genetic characterization. This achievement provides researchers, the world over, a common set of reference strains, overcoming a history of distinct genotyping systems in different laboratories. The result should hasten communication and progress in the field of toxoplasmosis epidemiology. In addition, progress was made in understanding the identities, distributions, and risks associated with several other food-borne parasitic agents including those in the genera Sarcocystis and Besnoitia.
4. Accomplishments
1. Genetics of Trichinella infections. Strong immune responses may strictly limit the opportunities for unrelated parasites, such as foodborne species of Trichinella, to mate. ARS researchers in Beltsville, Maryland examined the diversity of Trichinella larvae in naturally infected animals. Almost without exception, they found that animals had been successfully infected by only a single pair of parasites, as judged by the fact that larvae (their progeny) were full siblings. Therefore, immunity may typically preclude establishment of subsequent infections, a finding that further substantiates vaccination as a plausible strategy for future public health interventions.
2. Gene flow among dissimilar types of Trichinella. The spread of biological traits relevant to public health may be constrained by geographical, physical, and/or physiological barriers to reproduction among diverse forms of Trichinella. ARS biologists working in Beltsville, Maryland genotyped isolates of these food-borne parasites at loci (located in the nucleus) inherited from each parent, as well as at a locus (in the mitochondrion) inherited solely from the maternal line. Where each of two parasite lineages was known to infect wildlife, intermediate forms of the parasite (containing ancestry from both lines) were documented. In particular, one maternal lineage was found where two had been expected, substantiating the notion that introgression has resulted in the displacement, locally, of one by the other. These findings are among the first to explore the capacity of genes to flow from one lineage of Trichinella to another. Understanding whether traits can be shared among lineages is important, because a prevalent method to ensure the safety of meat (freezing) would be undermined if it certain traits (i.e. freeze resistance) were capable of being shared.
3. An unexpectedly widespread chromosomal variant in Toxoplasma gondii. Toxoplasma gondii, is an important and prevalent parasite that can be contracted either by eating contaminated meat or by ingesting contaminated produce or water. In spite of the fact that the parasite can undergo sexual recombination, producing myriad variants in certain locales, other strains are temporally stable and geographically widespread. The basis for persistence and dissemination of such strains was studied by ARS researchers in Beltsville, Maryland in collaboration with an international team of academic scientists. They found that a particular variant of one of the parasite's chromosomes occurs in myriad, otherwise unrelated strain. This finding focuses attention on the genes encoded by this chromosome, as it may offer functional explanation for the basis of this parasite's dispersal capacity, and new means to intervene in its transmission to food animals and to people.

How to buy the best drill for you
For relentless power and maximum torque, there's still nothing to beat an AC-powered electric drill.
But if you're working beyond the length of an extension cable and don't want your work impeded by a fiddly power lead then there's only one way to go: cordless.
Today's cordless drills pack more punch than ever, due in no small part to the advent of the lithium ion battery. Li-ion batteries are not only lighter than nickel cadmium (Ni-Cd) packs – a great weight saving on the wrist and forearm – they also hold their charge when not in use and don't mind being topped up from half empty.
A key consideration is voltage… Put simply, the higher the battery's voltage, the more power and torque you'll have to drill through tough materials like steel and especially concrete and brick. As an added bonus, all cordless drills serve two purposes: drilling and screwdriving. Combi Drills differ slightly in that they also include a hammer action for hard-going masonry work.
Most of the drill drivers in this roundup will tackle basic DIY tasks but it goes without saying that you get what you pay for. The more expensive models are invariably better built and add heaps more power to your elbow.
If you're looking for the best cordless drill to get your DIY on with this year, then look no further. From Black and Decker to JCB, these awesome drills will turn you into the next Handy Andy.
Hitachi DS18DSDL
There's not much this potent Hitachi can't handle thanks to its ability to spin up to 1,800rpm and deliver an impressive 92Nm of torque. There's a two-speed gearbox that's suitable for most applications but ultimately this is a powerful drill for making man-sized holes.
It comes with two batteries, meaning it's easy to swap them out during long and arduous DIY tasks, while the unit is ergonomically designed and weighs less than some of the other beasts mentioned here, which is great for long-term usage.
One of the neatest features is the white LED spotlight that sits at the front of the drill and illuminates the work surface for a reduction in DIY slip-ups. This is a serious drill.
£333 |Amazon
DeWalt DCK211D2T 10.8V Compact Drill Driver and Impact Driver
A crazily good deal at the price, this twin pack includes theDCF815 Impact Driver, which develops a whopping 107Nm of torque, with 15 settings.
There's no hammer action, and the LED light is a but feeble, but the drilling performance is still highly impressive, and thesimple, keyless chuck is cool too.
Also included is aDCK211D2T 10.8v drill/driver with 15 torque settings, for all your kitchen cabinet, screw-fixing needs.
Both of these tools are very good s standalone products, but in a pack with two batteries, for this price, they're very hard to beat indeed.
£159 | Amazon
Milwaukee M18 Compact Brushless Drill Driver
If you're in the market for a really heavy duty 18v drill driver (a drill and screwdriver in one) that'll last for years and perform any task you throw at it, then reach deeper into your wallet and nab yourself one of these American killer drillers. The Milwaukee brand may be relatively unknown in DIY-land but it's one of the first ports of call for the hard-hat brigade.
The newest model in the US-made M18 series is equipped with the latest in brushless motor tech which provides 50% more efficiency and twice the lifespan of your common or garden motor. It's also one of the smallest drill drivers on the market (it weighs in at around 2kgs) and that means greater ease of use in confined spaces.
The new M18 runs off a long-lasting 5Ah battery and is capable of producing a whopping 60Nm (Newton Meters) of unrelenting torque. To give you some idea of just how powerful that is, there's a video demonstration of the previous M18 model winching in an 11-ton digger without so much as a hiccup.
The M18 also features REDLINK overload protection (lest you hit a diamond seam), an on-board fuel gauge, an LED light to illuminate the working area and individual battery cell monitoring. The M18's full-fat package includes two Li-ion batteries, an 80-minute charger and an all-metal case to put the whole caboodle in.
At about half its launch RRP online, this is now something of a steal…
Bosch PSR 18 LI-2 Ergonomic
This bundle of dual-grip friskiness is 20% smaller and 10% lighter (1.1kg) than the average cordless man drill. It's also ergonomically designed to give you optimum power transfer and less of an aching hand.
Certainly, the dual grip is a godsend for those tricky jobs that require a bit of body weight and an extra hand on the drill. Where in the past you'd be triggering the drill with one hand and pushing from behind with the other, with this one you simply grip the arched front handle, lean in and drill right through to the neighbours sitting room. Furthermore, if the drill's integrated sensor detects sudden jamming – for example you may hit a steel joist, an old Roman axe, or whatever else is tucked behind the wallpaper – it shuts the motor down preventing kick back of the drill and possibly further chaos.
The PSR 18 is no lightweight when it comes to tricky tasks. It loves a good screwing – it has no less than 20 torque settings – and will penetrate any willing material, be it masonry, brick, metal, wood or, if your name's Reno, skull.
It's also the first DIY drill to incorporate the latest in brushless e-motors that are not only smaller and lighter than current units, but are also more powerful and wear-free.
The Bosch's accompanying 18-volt Lithium-Ion battery dishes out a very ample 2.5Ah and can be charged to 80% in just 40 minutes. You oly get one for your money, but asingle charge lasts long enough to see you through, ooh, at least 10 IKEA cupboard assemblies, several shelving units and possibly the building of a full-scale Spitfire replica.Oh, and because the battery is part of Bosch's 18volt 'Power4All' system it can be used on 15 other Bosch-based DIY and garden tools.
Worx WX372.2 20v Max
This compact and lightweight hammer drill is not only one of the most powerful cordless devices offered by Worx, it alsolooks rather ace, with chunky rubber grips and a cool contrasting orange and black colour scheme. Not that we're easily swayed by aesthetics or anything.
A beefy 20v lithium-ion battery pack ensures the motor can develop 50Nm of torque, which is more than enough to take on most drilling tasks. The 13mm keyless chuck and - ho ho - shaft lock make it easy to swap drill bits on the fly and the latest battery tech promises no self-discharge, for optimum performance.
There's a standard 3-year warranty on all Worx tools but surprisingly they still manage to come in at the lower end of the budget spectrum. This package includes a spare battery and "over 150 accessories" in a case.
£150 |Amazon
Bosch PSB 1800 LI-2
The latest in Bosch's expert range is compact and handy, yet powerful enough to take on most jobs.
It delivers 38Nm of torque and can drill up to 30mm in wood and 100mm in steel and masonry, while the numerous torque settings make it a great companion to annoying flatpack jobs that require tons of screwing.
It's also lightweight and the latest 18-volt battery system means plenty of running time and a rapid 1-hour recharge - you get two batteries.
A keyless chuck with Bosch Auto-Lock system means drill bits can be changed by hand and there's no more worrying abut losing that darned key.
£93 | Amazon
Guild 1.5AH Li-on Hammer Drill
Another one for penny pinchers and occasional drillers is the new range of Guild power tools at Argos. This may not feature the same outlandish torque outputs as some of the other drills mentioned but this sub-£60 number packs a credible 42Nm, with 23 torque settings. The top speed is 1,400rpm,with fan cooling to motor to prevent the drill from overheating,and there's a fast charging 1.5Ah lithium battery pack.
The drilling capacity for wood is 35mm, while it can handle 13mm when working on steel and masonry, but the lack of power means it's probably worth looking elsewhere for the toughest jobs. However, it's a great value addition to any toolbox, with a two-year guarantee.
£60 |Argos
Wickes 18v Li-Ion Cordless Combi Drill
The latest value range of tools from Wickes doesn't quite match up to the outright power of the offerings from big name brands, such as Bosch and Milwaukee, but they are great for those carrying out light- to medium-duty fastening applications.
A 240-volt motor develops around 35Nm of torque, which isn't enough for going through robust masonry like a knife through butter, but it'll have a go, and quite enough for plaster walls and wood. It's also great for making quick work of screwing things to other things.
A 2-year warranty and the fact there's a spare battery make it a decent deal for just half a ton.
£50 | Wickes
Ryobi LLCDI18022 ONE+
This keenly-priced, two-gear, variable-speed hammer drill-cum-screwdriver comes bundled with a spare battery and a handy tool bag. The Ryobi's 18 volt battery charges in a very reasonable 45 minutes and provides enough juice and torque for even the toughest of DIY tasks – its hammer action is especially handy for making lots of holes in a brick wall. Top tool.
£99 |Amazon
Black & Decker Trappano ASL188KB
Every manshed in the country has at least one B&D product lurking among the cobwebs, and this would be a worthy addition.
This hammer drill/driver feels light in the hand and runs at 18 volts, which is more than enough rotational oomph for most DIY jobs, including tricky masonry tasks. It has two gears for variable high and low speed drilling, an LED light to illuminate the work surface and a clever feature called Autoselect that choses the best torque and gear settings for the job in hand.
Comes with a case and two lightweight lithium ion batteries. Everything you need, in other words, to turn the living room wall into Swiss cheese.
£135 | Amazon
Metabo Combo Set 2.1.1 18V Cordless Kit
Metabo is a powertool brand that few householders may have heard of, but word among those in the know – professional builders, carpenters and the like – is that Metabo products are well built and reliable.
At 1.8kg, this chunky little household helper is one of the lighter drills on the market, though it doesn't offer hammer action for masonry work. However, it does feature a four-pole motor that makes wood and steel drilling quick and effortless. Not only does it come with an extra battery, they also throw in a cordless screwdriver as well, although obviously the drill can do that on its own, too.
£360 | Amazon
If you're looking for heavy duty gear that'll last ages and perform practically any drilling or screw-driving task you throw at it, then reach deeper into your pocket and nab one of these Teutonic killer drillers.
The AEG is tough as boot and comes equipped with a spare battery and a powerful but compact 18v motor capable of delivering a whopping 70Nm (Newton Meters) of torque, with 24 torque settings.
There's also an LED light and a chunky pro-style side grip to make you feel more manly. The AEG has one of the easiest chuck adjustment systems on the market and it looks pretty cool to boot, like the powertool equivalent of a Colt 45.
£276 | Amazon

Part FourMature
Netheniel's eyes fluttered open. The first thing his dreary gaze caught was the rustic shine of ancient bars, only inches from his face. His side ached from the hard floor and his arm lay under his weight, asleep. He breathed in and caught the acrid smell of moss and dirt. With a sigh, Netheniel turned with deliberation onto his back and gazed up towards the ceiling, where many areas were thick with cobwebs.
"Ah, you're awake."
Netheniel stiffened at the calm voice and whipped his head towards it. The man sat in a fold-up chair just outside of the bars, leaning against his palm. A passive look crossed his face as he watched Netheniel hurry to sit up against the rigid wall.
He tried to remember the man's name, thinking back to the ambush. Matt. That was the man's name. Netheniel's gaze darkened as the man—Matt—sat back into the chair.
How was I out? The question rang in his mind, causing him to stiffen. Netheniel didn't remember much—he didn't even remember falling asleep.
"Hello, Netheniel."
Netheniel pursed his lips.
The man raised his eyebrows. He waited for Netheniel to speak for a moment, and then grimaced at him for not replying. "I said, hello."
"How had I fallen asleep?"
Matt stiffened, his eyes narrowing at Netheniel. "You hadn't. We knocked you out."
Netheniel stared at him with wide, disbelieving eyes. How? No matter what Netheniel had done before, he wasn't able to knock himself out.
Matt seemed to hesitate for a moment. "We aren't going to hurt you until you give us a reason to."
"Really." There was no question in Netheniel's tone—just a dark, challenging feel as he leaned his head against the concrete.
The man's eyes dimmed for a moment. With a deep breath, he stood up and gripped a bar in his hand. His knuckles were tight against the hold as he leaned his face to the cold metal. "Mr. Bater. As long as you cooperate, we will not test anything type of torture on you."
Netheniel raised his eyebrows and crossed his arms. "Okay."
The man let out a sigh of relief as his posture relaxed.
Their eyes met. For the longest of moments, Netheniel's passive gaze and Matt's narrowed stare held another.
"I have some questions," Matt continued after the tense moment.
"Of course."
The man's lips tightened, but he didn't acknowledge Netheniel's dark tone. He popped his knuckles and sat back into the chair, getting comfortable for the talk.
"How long have you been in this town?"
"Ever since I was born."
Matt raised his eyebrows. "Wow. Can you explain what happened to you?"
Netheniel's nostrils flailed. The question threw him off. "Aren't you curious about the murders?"
"I am, but I know that if I don't become acquainted with you, I will still know what I know now—nothing."
He pursed his lips at Matt and shrugged. "I don't know anything."
"But your father did. He must have told you," Matt said as he rubbed at his chin. A dark look passed his eyes for a moment, and he leaned forward to mutter. "You know, we can always get him here and find out. I'm sure he'd love to see you here."
Netheniel's glare ignited with anger. He clenched his teeth and slowly shook his head, both to deny his anger and Matt. "That isn't necessary. He has been keeping track of the murders, but hasn't bothered the police about information. He has picked up on some strange factors to the cases, but none of them match me. At all."
"Then what does match you?" Matt watched every move he made.
It was unnerving, Netheniel realized. "I don't know," he muttered with a sigh of despair. Netheniel ran a hand over his face, thinking deeply. What was he?
"You don't know what you are, Mr. Bater?"
Netheniel pursed his lips and watched as Matt raked a hand through his hair. The look of astonishment would have been comical if it weren't for the feel of the conversation.
"I see." Matt stood up and picked at the fabric of his pants. Netheniel watched as Matt glanced over at him, his eyes containing a certain gleam.
Netheniel grimaced and looked away.
"I will be back in a while," Matt said after a few drawn out moments. His narrowed stare stayed on Netheniel as he cautiously made his way to the door. It seemed to Netheniel that he was afraid to turn his back.
The man disappeared around the corner of the small cellar. After a second, Netheniel heard a soft clicking sound and he knew that he had been locked in.
His gaze drifted around the small room. He watched as water dripped from the corner of the ceiling, pooling on the floor below. Scurrying sounds echoed through the small room—possibly rats.
Netheniel wrapped his arms around his knees and leaned his head against them, sighing.
