Do you have pictures or drawings or anything? Oh, and please continue, can't wait to read more! I wonder if Sam will ever catch the elusive mysterious Megatron, hhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmm? \/0w0\/ WOOF!

U didn't keep going?! :(
| gemava chapter 1 . 1/14/2013
i really enjoyed this start, it has some serious potential, honestly there isnt too much to read in this category and i love this start.
i think if you want to 'evolve' bumblebee and starscream you could add their 'jobs' to their titles, you know new speices of pokemon and all so bumblebee could evolve into Bumblebee: scout. or Bumblebee: Spy. or perhaps you could esentially make them larger as they evolve with certain battle only abilities. sort of like deoxys and how it can be an attack mode, defense mode, speed mode etc so forth.
i like the thought of sam's starscream being very smart and vain and even brave in battle so long as what its fighting doesnt have red eyes/optics or is large and silver... then it shrieks and flees lmao.
also i would like to see sam catch sunstreaker and sideswipe as a sort of you can't catch one without the other bullying you and following sort of thing.
i can almsot see him catching sideswipe coz he was friendly only to have sunstreaker stalk him and pick fights with him until he gets caught too or until sideswipe gets released... though i can also see a lot of vain rivalry between startscream and sunstreaker, can anyone say Jetjudo practice?
| Foxes Are Us chapter 1 . 2/1/2012
hi this is sunnysides and I really liked this story could you do another chapter because its really good and by the way nice way of making starscream afraid of megatron
| Random Reader chapter 1 . 1/26/2012
-cackle- This is great. Having Optimus and Megatron be semi-legendaries is priceless, and the fact that (the) Megatron only appears when (a) Starscream is around (and then proceeds to beat him to the ground) is amazing, as well as that Pokedex.
So, what's 'Bee gonna evolve into? Goldbug? XD
| SnowFire chapter 1 . 12/26/2011
So far really good. Are you going to continue. I would follow if you continued. If you do continue, is Sam going to capture all of the autobots and some of the deceptions?
Plealse continue.
| Molto Alesato chapter 1 . 10/28/2011
I think I just D'awwwwwed all over the keyboard. Why did you never add another chapter to this, it's ridiculously cute and leaves you aching for more. God, yes, more. Please don't abandon this! Update!
| Lunar Mist chapter 1 . 6/26/2011
This is a very interesting concept. Heh. Megatron and Optimus are legendaries XD I lobe how the pokedex insults him! I would definitely read any upcoming chapters.
| Mobile Holmes chapter 1 . 5/19/2011
That WAS A HOOT!

| SeekerMoonblade chapter 1 . 1/10/2011
Omg! I love your story! Please update soon! I have now planned my perfect team: Sunstreaker & Sideswipe, Ratchet & Hook, and Barricade & Blackout. You are truly inspiring!
| VolturiGirl chapter 1 . 10/12/2010
OMG, the cuteness! You have no idea how much I now want one of your poke-formers. A Ratchet, preferably. :) (Oh, god. Chansey with a wrench. The mental images xD)
The Megatron as a legendary thing is a good idea. Does that mean Prime is one too? But hopefully we actually SEE and TALK TO Prime.
Annnd is the pokedex a really twisted version of Teletraan? Because whatever it is, it's genius :D
Please, please, please update soon!

A year ago, if you'd asked David Moore to generalize about homeless people, he'd have said most were probably addicted to drugs or alcohol, lacking in ambition and unworthy of the general public's trust.
Then he became homeless himself.
"I'll be honest with you, I wasn't prepared for that to happen," said Moore, a 46-year-old Arnold native who lost his job and his apartment last fall, only to end up living in his car.
He might have lost his hope as well, he said, had he not heard about Winter Relief, a program sponsored by the Arundel House of Hope in Glen Burnie that offers a select group of more than 90 homeless people a warm place to sleep every night...

India Forex Advisors / Market Commentary / 01_June_2010
The EURUSD is currently trading at 1.2271 and in a clear downtrend after the correction to 1.2670 levels. Maintain selling for exports at upmoves (Only EURO/USD leg , we can wait for covering USD/INR leg) . We target 1.20 and below. We had advised exporters to cover at 1.30 levels for medium term (refer week back update). Importers hold for covers. Bearish-target 1.2000 & below . (EURUSD - 1.2271).
GBPUSD is currently trading at 1.4492 levels . We touched 1.4612 on Friday but it opened with a gap and touched a low of 1.4410. The bias is clearly bearish below 1.4530 levels. We got some exporters covered few days back at 1.5050 levels (refer previous updates) .We are still bearish on the pair. Importers hold for covers.( Cover USD/INR leg) . Target 1.41 & below in medium term. (GBPUSD - 1.4492).Bearish.
USDJPY is currently trading 91.13 levels. We have seen a 89-90 levels due to increased risk aversion. Stay short on the USD/JPY pair . The trend for the pair has turned slight bearish below 95.00 levels. May-June Importers cover yen at 92 levels and exporters cover close to 88-89 level. Ideally 88.10 support should hold. (USDJPY 91.13) Neutral.
AUDUSD is currently trading at 0.8391 levels. Exporters got booked few days back at 0.9050 levels. Target of .8000 and below expected in medium term. Exporters cover at every rise in the pair. Bearish Still. (AUDUSD - 0.8391).
Gold is currently trading at $1217 levels and its bias is clearly on the upside. It had reached our target of 1st Target of 1200 dollars and 2nd target of 1240 levels. Buying on dips remains the strategy. We have bought gold at 1175-80 levels as suggested (refer 2 weeks update) and holding long till 1240 dollars atleast. (Gold- $1217) Bullish.
Dollar index's rise from 74.19 has accelerated after staying firm above upper channel resistance. The powerful impulsive move is in line with our view that rise from 74.19 is resuming the long term up trend from 70.70. We'd expect a test on 88-89 high sooner or later. Strong support comes near 85 levels . Dollar index is clearly bullish above 80 levels. Still room higher. (Dollar Index- 86.70) Overall Bullish

Groom's Wedding Attire – It's His Day Too!
It seems as though all attention goes into the Bride finding the perfect dress, the perfect train, the perfect veil, but what about the Groom? Shouldn't he have a little attention lavished on his appearance too? After all, as the commercial for The Men's Wearhouse says, "All eyes will be on her (the bride), but she'll be looking at you (the groom)! There are accessories and styles for the groom's wedding attire that he'll select to make his appearance special.
The groom should consider these questions before selecting his wedding clothes:
- Will he get a rental or a fitted tuxedo/suit made just for him?
- What will be the colors for him and his groomsmen?
- Will he get themed or designed cufflinks (e.g. sports, personalized, or based on color)?
- What style of tie will he wear (ascot, bow tie, etc)?
- Will he wear suspenders?
- What style of collar will he choose (wing, banded or lay down collar)?
- What type of lapel looks right (notch, peak or shawl)?
- Does it matter how many buttons are on the jacket? (e.g. 1, 2, 3, or 6)
There are so many details and questions the Groom will have to figure. Usually the Bride tends to decide what style of dress is best for the Groom, but does he get to decide what she will wear? Just like there are different dress styles for different brides, so are there different style suits or tuxedos for the Groom.
Tip: There's more to shopping for your wedding attire then going to a tuxedo rental store and picking the right size suit off the rack.
Get a feel for and try on different styles of tuxedos/suits. And, since the tuxedo isn't right for every type of wedding, here is a list of etiquette rules for finding the right attire for your style wedding.
- Semi – Formal Daytime: a dark suit is recommended, but in the summer you can select lighter fabric and colors – linen is suggested.
- Semi – Formal Evening: a suit or black tuxedo with either cummerbund or vest, bow tie and white wing-tipped shirt would work best.
- Formal Daytime: a black or gray jacket (e.g. tails, strollers, cut-away) is recommended with striped pants and striped ascot, cravat, or tie, and a vest.
- Formal Evening (Black Tie: a black tuxedo, white shirt, black bow tie, cummerbund or vest.
- Ultra – Formal Daytime: wear a black or gray cutaway jacket, with gray striped pants, gloves, cufflinks, vest, and ascot or cravat
- Ultra – Formal Evening (White Tie): a black tailcoat, black pants, black vest, white wing-collared shirt, and white bow tie.
There are a variety of styles for jackets, ties, vests, cufflinks, pants, shirts and collars, so make sure to select a store that will take time to explain the difference and find the right look for you. Not all shops have experienced and knowledgeable personnel so be sure to brush up on your attire etiquette so you select the right suit for your wedding.
Tip: In addition to the time of the wedding, the groom's attire should complement the formality of bride's dress. (You don't want to overdress or under dress)
Grooms this is your day too, so take the time to look and feel your best! Who is making the decision about the groom's attire for your wedding?

So much emphasis is put on the bride's dress, I think most men overlook the value of their look at the wedding. For instance, a rental tux will fit you great in the shoulders, usually, but will look boxy in the chest and waist area. Do you want to ruin your wedding pictures with an ill fitting suit? Guys, it is about her, but make sure you take care of you and make the pictures memorable. You can always buy a suit and add a vest and bow tie to give that formal look. That way you have a suit you can use so many more times!!
For my wedding to Tiffany Nieves I chose to go in another direct. I knew she was wearing two different dresses, she is a wedding planner after all, so I decided to start a new trend. The groom change! I started the ceremony in my tailored tux
and changed into a less formal suit midway through reception.
By doing so it allowed me to be more comfortable and to also and variety to our wedding photos!

I love the idea of both the bride and the groom changing into a second dress and suit.
Brides… when doing dress alterations, the dress should be made to complement you. Grooms, ensure that the tailor gets your right measurements for a well fitted tuxedo or suit. In looking at the pictures above, both John and his wife complement each other, which adds that special touch to the wedding.

The RCVS VN Council has recommended that the Royal College should cease being an awarding body next year, which means it would no longer offer the vocational Level 3 Diploma in Veterinary Nursing.
The RCVS Veterinary Nurses Council has recommended that the Royal College should cease being an awarding body next year, which means it would no longer offer the vocational Level 3 Diploma in Veterinary Nursing.
The recommendation was made at its meeting yesterday (October 11), but is pending ratification by RCVS Council at its meeting on November 3.
The Royal College aims to ensure the diploma remains available by transferring the intellectual property associated with the qualification (question banks and systems, etc.) to another larger awarding body.
This decision is said to reflect recent changes in the regulatory conditions of approval for awarding bodies, and relates mainly to potential conflicts of interest between the college's primary role as professional regulator and its role as an awarding body.
Colonel Neil Smith, chairman of the RCVS awarding body board, said: "The RCVS has been offering vocational qualifications since 1998 and the decision to cease being an awarding body has not been taken lightly.
"We have taken this decision in order to focus on our core responsibilities of professional regulation and standard setting. However, we remain committed to maintaining the diploma, which has been carefully developed by the RCVS and the profession. This move ensures that it will stay in safe hands."
As the professional regulator, the college will continue to issue RCVS certificates and badges to those who have successfully completed a registerable qualification – such as an approved vocational qualification run by another awarding body, or an RCVS-recognised veterinary nursing degree.
- Students still in the process of completing the old NVQ qualifications, the accreditation of which is due to run out in 2013, will continue to be serviced by the RCVS.
- The Advanced Diploma in Veterinary Nursing will be unaffected by the change as the qualification is awarded by the college under its Royal Charter powers.

The Resuscitation Department at Frimley Park Hospital runs its BLS course 3 times a week with class sizes ranging between 12-15 students in each class. Like many Resuscitation Departments around the country, the Little Anne was the staple manikin used for all BLS training. Looking to update her teaching equipment, Karen tested the new Resusci Anne QCPR manikin with SkillGuide.
The SkillGuide is a small electrronic device that when attached to the manikin, records and displays real-time feedback on the core parameters of CPR performance (depth, rate, incomplete release and ventilation volume).
"As Resuscitation Officers, we all strive to ensure that students attain Guideline compliant CPR but judging the quality of CPR performed can be a challenge and imprecise. With the SkillGuide providing real-time feedback, the instructor and student can see straightaway the level of CPR being performed and what aspects need to improve", observed Mrs. Britton.
Ensuring the standard is reached
Commenting on the differences between teaching using both manikin types, she continued, "The 30 minutes hands-on session in the BLS course has become much more meaningful. Students can be self-directed in their CPR practice with the feedback on the SkillGuide guiding their improvements until they reach the required standard. And with the SkillGuide's summative feedback and scoring function, we can now be certain they have reached that standard."
When asked if the students liked the new style of training, she said, "The student feedback has been really positive. They seem much more engaged in the training and more motivated and competitive with themselves to improve their scores. The sessions are noticeably more fun and interactive."
The future of BLS training
Looking ahead to the future of BLS training at Frimley Park Hospital, she said, "I can certainly see a measured improvement in CPR performance compared to previous BLS training. Using feedback is definitely the way we will move forward to improve CPR competence in our organisation."

The relative importance of respiratory viral infections vs inhalant allergy in asthma pathogenesis is the subject of ongoing debate. Emerging data from long-term prospective birth cohorts are bringing increasing clarity to this issue, in particular through the demonstration that while both of these factors can contribute independently to asthma initiation and progression, their effects are strongest when they act in synergy to drive cycles of episodic airways inflammation. An important question is whether susceptibility to infection and allergic sensitization in children with asthma arises from common or shared defect(s). We argue here that susceptibility to recurrent respiratory viral infections, failure to generate protective immunologic tolerance to aeroallergens, and ultimately the synergistic interactions between inflammatory pathways triggered by concomitant responses to these agents all result primarily from functional deficiencies within the cells responsible for local surveillance for antigens impinging on airway surfaces: the respiratory mucosal dendritic cell (DC) network. The effects of these defects in DCs from children wtih asthma are accentuated by parallel attenuation of innate immune functions in adjacent airway epithelial cells that reduce their resistance to the upper respiratory viral infections, which are the harbingers of subsequent inflammatory events at asthma lesion site(s) in the lower airways. An important common factor underpinning the innate immune functions of these unrelated cell types is use of an overlapping series of pattern recognition receptors (exemplified by the Toll-like receptor family), and variations in the highly polymorphic genes encoding these receptors and related molecules in downstream signaling pathways appear likely contributors to these shared defects. Findings implicating recurrent respiratory infections in adult-onset asthma, much of which is nonatopic, suggest a similar role for deficient immune surveillance in this phenotype of the disease.

The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) has caused a recent storm in its commentary on "Panamanian Law Firm Is Gatekeeper To Vast Flow of Murky Offshore Secrets".
Behind the media hype are some very nervous people. Nervous of being dragged into the net of tax evaders. They may be existing clients of GGI member firms or potentially new clients of GGI member firms.
Many clients are internationally mobile and have complicated financial affairs. For whatever historical reasons, they may have sought to protect their family wealth by the legitimate use of offshore structures. They may have been advised by Mossack Fonseca & Co. in order to be fully tax compliant in multiple tax jurisdictions. They are not tax evaders but they still need help in conducting a dialogue with tax authorities.
We must also recognize that there will be some that are not tax compliant and have deliberately evaded tax. They still need help in conducting a dialogue with tax authorities.
The Panama Papers following on from the Swiss Banks and the ability of tax authorities being successful in attacking the so-called tax havens around the world. This is not going to go away and may trigger further similar revelations in the future.
GGI through the International Tax Practice Group is well placed to offer practical advice through the GGI alliance as I believe we have the necessary skills and experience to help those caught up within the 11 million files of data.
ITPG is happy to bring together the GGI experts and those who are looking for experts, so please contact me or issue an entry in the blackboard yourself if you:

Just Too LateMature
"Wait... why you tell them, we're engaged, when we aren't. " John uttered.
Nikki grinned, "they both needed to hear it."
John blew her off.
A few days later on July 1st.
John finished his morning routine as Nikki kissed him goodbye. She left and he opened up the newspaper to see the reviews of his two new gyms. He opened facebook and read some posts and interviews about his gyms.
He clicked over to Denise's page as Latch by Sam Smith played throughout his home. He looked throughout her page. Dan called his house phone.
"Hey John. Are you busy?"
"No, what's going on?"
"Can you call mom? I think something has happened. Eve and I flew down to North Carolina to visit her family and I haven't been able to get in contact with the family.
"I talked to mom this morning. Dad got sick in the heat, so he is in the hospital. I'm thinking about driving up there."
"Oh good. Is Nikki going?"
"No, I have her being watch by a private investigator. And plus she wouldn't want to go anyway. I hope I am wrong about her."
"I hope you cut her. So when we getting you back with Denise."
"She's is getting married. I fucked up. I chose my family over her."
"No, you didn't."
"You fucked up on your own. Nikki was throwing it on you and you took it. Yes she is the image of what you want. But Denise is what you need. Stop the sob story and get her back before it's too late."
"I don't even know where to start."
"Drop Nikki."
"I have to find out if she is stealing first."
"John, get your head in the game."
"Okay bro."

Thank you for a wonderful stay at La Jolie! It was very comfortable for my family, especially having a baby the environment was very clean which was really important to me. I would definetly recommend anyone to experience the spectacular ocean view, waking up to the relaxing sounds of the ocean waves. The kids enjoyed the salt water pool that was very safe. Such a great place well designed that captures all aspects of Tobago's natural beauty. Looking forward for another stay soon!
To put it simply: La Jolie surpassed our expectations. Everything was perfect and we had no issues at all. My family found comfort and convenience both in terms of the amenities and the location. We will certainly recommend and return.
My family and I had a great weekend at the Villa. It's equipped with everything you need and the view is amazing. Best part of the stay was the pool and hot tub - we only left the house once the entire weekend! Thanks for letting us use your lovely rental.
My family and I stayed at La Jolie for a weekend and I must say we are all very sad we didn't book the villa for a longer stay. La Jolie has everything that is listed in the description and is a beautiful villa, it makes you feel right at home. The kitchen was FULLY equipped with everything imaginable making it so easy to have home cooked meals which was extremely convenient. The housekeeper was more than hospitable and helped us very much. We were so sad to leave. Waking up every morning to the sea views was paradise. We had so much fun in the pool in the day time and relaxing in the Jacuzzi in the night. But what made everything 100x better was the absolute privacy you have at this villa. Everything is very private yet all your necessities such as groceries, market, fast food is literally a 10 min walk away. Thank you so much for having us it was our first time in Tobago but one of our best vacations yet. We would definitely love to visit La Jolie again soon.
Our family stayed at La Jolie in June. This place has great energy. Elegant yet comfortable, it reminded me of my family's home in Trinidad. The layout is well thought out. The main living area is spacious and opens out onto a large patio, an infinity pool and jacuzzi. My best memory is sitting by the pool with a drink and watching the sunset and birds especially the hummingbirds taking their last sip of nectar before night fell. There are three large bedrooms with en-suite baths and on the ground floor there is a handicapped accessible bedroom with bathroom close by. Ms. Ulin takes very good care of this place and its guests. Lots of white linens and towels are provided. The living area is enclosed by decorative wrought iron / glass french doors which, while providing security, do not impede the spectacular view of sea and sky. There is excellent cross ventilation when the doors and windows are open even in June. If you are a birdwatcher this place is for you. I observed finches, warblers, hummingbirds just hanging out at the pool. A bananaquit makes its home in an overhang and flies in and out of its nest at leisure. We found this villa affordable. We cooked all our meals (and we had very active hungry children with us) in the well equipped kitchen. I am an amateur cook/baker and I greatly enjoyed using the six burner gas stove and the serious oven. The kitchen is very well equipped . An outdoor grill is provided. The fish market in Mt Irving is close by so we enjoyed great fresh fish dinners that would have cost a fortune if we were eating out. I am artist, my husband a writer. We found much to inspire us here. The house is big enough to accommodate those who wanted a quiet spot to just be. But then that's my advice. This is a great place to just let go and be. Would I recommend it? Yes 100%.
La Jolie has been my chosen holiday home for the past couple years and I recommend it to anyone for its spectacular view and relaxing atmosphere. From the moment we arrive, the kids are in the inviting pool. The rooms are clean, spacious and comfortable and the kitchen is fully equipped and maintained so the cooking as part of the lime makes it enjoyable. The housekeeper, Ms. Ulin welcomes us with her friendly smile and a hug and is always helpful. The villa is situated in the ideal location where you have easy access to nice restaurants, the mini mart, linx machine, veggie stall, fish market and beaches. Did I mention the refreshing air and awesome view you wake up to enjoy with a cup of coffee and the sound of the surf. Or, the incredible sunset!

He has been one of the most gifted offensive NHL players of his generation, yet he is often overlooked as one of the best players of the game. His name is Alex Ovechkin.
Two nights ago, Ovechkin scored his 50th goal of the season for the Washington Capitals…the sixth time that he has accomplished this feat and only the sixth person in NHL HISTORY to do so. Ovechkin joins Gretzky, Lafleur, Lemieux, Bossy and Dionne in this category, and only Mike Bossy and Wayne Gretzky with nine 50 goal seasons have done it better.
Yet when you ask who the best player in the league is, we instantly hear the names of Sidney Crosby, or Carey Price, or Steven Stamkos. They are all great players, Ovechkin needs to be in that conversation as well.
He is on the verge of being the highest scoring Russian ever to play in the NHL, and if he were Alex Overton from Saskatoon, he'd be front page news.
No player…NO PLAYER since Ovechkin entered the league has more goals. In fact there is no player within 100 goals of Ovi since he joined the league. The last time we saw that kind of dominance in goal scoring, his name was Hull, or Gretzky, or Lemieux or Richard.
Now I'm not saying that Ovechkin is the Rodeney Dangerfield of the NHL…he does get his respect. But in a league full of fans that so cherish goal scoring in a dead puck era, why is there not more celebration of Ovechkin's achievements?
The reason why is that we are now conditioned to defence being the best part of the game, so therefore we value players who are able to keep goals out more than score goals. It makes me wonder where the Canucks would be without Radim Vrbata this year…
Consider this my platform to nominate Alex Ovechkin for MVP…in a year that has been all about the goalie, he is in a goal scoring class all to himself.


text: BEIJING, March 4, 2013 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hollysys Automation Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ: HOLI ) ("Hollysys" or the "Company"), a leading provider of automation and control technologies and applications in China, announced today that its proprietary vital computer 2000 ("HVC2000") which is mainly used for on-board high-speed rail and subway signaling system development, has been certified in compliance with the most stringent Safety Integrity Level 4 (SIL4) requirements of EN50126/50128/50129/50159 standards. HVC2000 is one of Hollysys' core products. It is served as Hollysys' on-board rail signaling system design and development supporting platform, and used for developing several critical products, including subway automatic train protection system ("ATP") and automatic train operation system ("ATO") which are installed on the subway trains, as well as the ATP and ATO applied for high-speed rail trains. HVC2000 adopts "double 2oo2 as 1oo2" system architecture; it has the characteristics of high reliability, scalability and safety. Besides, it is equipped with multiple rounds of safety protection and fault diagnosis methods, and it follows both "composite fail-safety" and "inherent fail-safety" design principals within European Safety Standards. Recall, the subway signaling system is mainly comprised by on-board control of ATP and ATO, ground-based control of ATS (Automatic Train Supervision), CBI (Computer Based Interlocking) and auxiliary systems. Subway ATS and CBI have been certified according to the same European safety standards already. The certification of HVC2000 will accelerate the process in getting the certification of subway ATP and ATO, thus the completion of the whole subway signaling system. Dr. Changli Wang, CEO and Chairman of Hollysys, commented: "We are very pleased that we got the certification of HVC 2000 according to the most stringent European safety standards, which is marking another milestone towards the completion of our proprietary subway signaling system development and certification. We believe that proprietary technology and strong R&D capability is one of our core pillar foundations driving our market leadership across all of our attractive industry verticals. In view of China's aggressive subway construction plan and overseas subway signaling system reconstruction opportunities, we believe that our world class and newly developed subway signaling system will bring us special competitive advantages in propelling our subway business in both Chinese and international market leveraging our solid track record and brand-name recognition, and create value for our shareholders." About Safety Integrity Level (SIL) Safety Integrity Level is a relative level of risk-reduction provided by a safety function. Within the European Functional Safety standards four SILs are defined, with SIL 4 being the most dependable and SIL 1 being the least. The International Electrotechnical Commission's (IEC) standard IEC 61508 defines SIL using requirements grouped into two broad categories: hardware safety integrity and systematic safety integrity. A device or system must meet the requirements for both categories to achieve a given SIL. To achieve a given SIL, the device must meet targets for the maximum probability of dangerous failure and a minimum Safe Failure Fraction. The standards such as EN50126/8/9 use SIL as a measure of reliability and/or risk reduction for railway safety products.

Induced Shift in Ecosystem Productivity? Extensive Scale Effects of Abundant Large Herbivores

Abundant large herbivores can strongly alter vegetation composition, shifting the ecosystem into a lasting state of changed productivity. Previous studies of the effects of abundant reindeer on alpine and arctic vegetation have yielded equivocal results, probably due to differing environmental contexts. To overcome context dependency we devised a large-scale survey in the region of Finnmark, northern Norway, possessing some of the most densely stocked reindeer herds in the world. The effects of reindeer abundance on summer pasture vegetation were assessed by employing a quasi-experimental design, including site fertility as a potential modifier of the reindeer–vegetation interaction. The study design comprised ten pairs of neighboring management districts (encompassing 18,003 km2), where over the two last decades a high-density district on average had reindeer densities more than twice as high and calf weights consistently lower than the low-density district. The abundance of different plant functional groups, ranging from those having facilitating to retarding effects on ecosystem productivity, were quantified by the point intercept method on plots selected according to a hierarchical, stratified random sampling design. Species with strong retarding effects on ecosystem productivity (for example, ericoids) were by far the most abundant. However, we found no consistent effects of reindeer density on their abundance. The most consistent differences between high- and low-density districts were found in plant functional groups with facilitating to neutral effects on ecosystem productivity. In particular, the abundance of N-facilitators, large dicotyledons and grasses were substantially reduced in the high-density districts. However, this reduction was restricted to fertile sites. Thus, reindeer when present at high densities have homogenized the biomass of palatable plants across environmental productivity gradients according to predictions from exploitation ecosystem models. Such reduction of plants with facilitating to neutral effects on ecosystem productivity indicates a reduced state of ecosystem productivity in high-density districts.

ATZENBRUGG, Austria -- Joost Luiten of the Netherlands won the Lyoness Open by two shots for his second European Tour title.
After holding a three-stroke lead overnight, Luiten shot a 71 in the final round Sunday to finish at 17-under-par 271 on the Diamond Country Club course.
"It's a great feeling, it's been a great week," said Luiten, whose previous win came at the Iskandar Johor Open in Malaysia in November 2011, two months after finishing third in Atzenbrugg.
The victory was Luiten's third European Tour top-10 finish of the season and 20th overall. The win will move him up from 137th to just inside the top 100 of the world rankings.
Thomas Bjorn of Denmark (68) finished second at 15 under, while
Luiten bogeyed the first hole but led throughout the day. His closest challengers after the third round, Spaniards
"It was a long day. It started off with a bogey but I hit the ball nice," Luiten said. "I made some mistakes on the greens, I didn't make a lot of putts. Luckily I made a birdie on the 16th, and it's always nice to finish with par and par."
At the event two years ago, Luiten also led for most of the final round, but bogeyed the last hole and finished third, trailing winner
This time, the Dutchman had a solid finish to his round to keep Bjorn, who followed up Saturday's 64 with a 68, at a distance.
Before Luiten teed off on the 14th hole, play was suspended for an hour because of thunderclouds.
"At that time I wanted to play on, but I think it was good to have a break," Luiten said. "I wasn't playing really well before the break, so I got some food and tried to focus again."
Defending champion Bernd Wiesberger shot a 69 to tie for 14th at 8 under, missing out on a chance to qualify for the U.S. Open. Wiesberger made a bogey on the 18th hole. As it turned out, he would have needed a birdie to pass Kyle Stanley in the world ranking and have a chance to get into the top 60. Sunday was the last day for the top 60 to be exempt for the U.S. Open, which starts Thursday at Merion Golf Club outside Philadelphia.
"The bogey on the 18th was very disappointing," said Wiesberger, who needed a top-10 finish to stand a reasonable chance of qualifying. "I've just made too many mistakes the whole week."

The euro falls affected by the Bundesbank outlook
The U.S dollar rose today in the middle of the European session with renewed fears in financial markets especially after Feds Charles Evans said yesterday that the feds won't loosen the monetary policy anytime soon. He also said that the economic developments in the U.S economy from the labor market or even the future expectations for inflation rates do not support the bank in loosening the monetary policy further.
The USDIX is currently trading around 75.30 recording the intraday high of 75.35 and the low of 74.95.
The euro fell against the dollar to 1.4244 after the Bundesbank -Germany's central bank- said that the German economy is to slow into the end of the year especially after the explosive start of the year, saying growth is likely to ease somewhat in the foreseeable future.
The pair opened today at 1.4307 recording the intraday high of 1.4345 and the low of 1.4230. Technically, the failure to passing through the resistance level at 1.4320 pressures the downside move as far as a clear breach is seen for 1.4245 support to move towards 1.4105.
The pound fell against the dollar despite the lack of economic data from the royal economy which is facing a lot of difficulties from high inflation rates, huge budget deficit, and sluggish growth.
The pair is currently trading around 1.6226 recording the intra day high of 1.6265 and the low of 1.6215; the pair is trading between the support of 1.6160 and the resistance of 1.6285.
U.S dollar rose against the Japanese yen after the BoJ kept its monetary policy unchanged with rates steady at 0.0%-0.1% to support the Japanese economy which shrank during the first quarter following the March earthquake. The pair is currently trading around 81.66 recording the intraday high of 81.75 and the low of 81.45, the pair is expected to continue to the upside if it breaches through 81.75 moving towards targets at 83.50 but breaching 80.75 levels will negate the expected upside move.

like you I simply don't understand the lack of response on the part of
the AHS. I will wait untill after the "Board meeting" , however, to
pass judgment on what the current intensions of the AHS are. I have
written several letters, that I hope will in part ,at least, be entered
into the discussions at that meeting. I have tried to look up the exact
date for that meeting, and can not find it published. Does any one know
the date? As has been pointed out, the overwhelming need is for a
system of communications, to be established, that is avaliable and
"comfortable" to all AHS members, and a Bi-Laws change ( which will
require a 2/3 rds vote at the next convention ) that will allow a ballot
vote by all members, on important issues. There is no reason for a "fair
minded" objection to these changes. If they are not discussed, It is
going to look like there are motives at work, that are personal and that
the board is really disintrested in knowing the thinking of the entire

Stevenage manager Graham Westley insists his side will not underestimate Preston despite Saturday's opponents winning just one of their last 10 League One matches.
The Lancashire club have endured a difficult few months and currently sit in mid-table after relegation from the Championship last season. Despite an encouraging away win at Hartlepool at the end of last month, they suffered another setback on Tuesday night when they were knocked out of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy area semi-finals on penalties at home to Chesterfield.
However, Westley insists his players must focus solely on extending their good run of form, telling the Comet: "They're a side that's been going through a difficult period - they've lost a lot of football matches and that doesn't breed confidence - but there's a lot of experience in their camp."
He added: "They've got some very good players, they've got an experienced manager, it's a big club with a new chairman that has just come in and that will probably be worrying one or two.
"It's definitely a club in transition on one hand, and facing a difficult period on the other, but what will be important is how we play.
"If we're on our game we can go there and win, and that will be our intention. It's a great opportunity to put in a hell of a performance."

The Cytology and Core Needle Biopsy Subcommittee, organized under the Rules Committee of the Japanese Breast Cancer Society, has prepared a new form for breast cytology reports. This reporting form consists of "diagnostic categories" and "recommendations." The "diagnostic category" is either "specimen inadequacy" or "specimen adequacy." The judgment on "specimen adequacy" is subdivided into four categories: "normal or benign," "indeterminate," "suspicious for malignancy," and "malignant." The "recommendation" indicates descriptions of cytological features and estimated histological type of tumor (these descriptions should be as detailed as possible). On the basis of an analysis of cytological data from 3,439 cases performed before preparing this form, the subcommittee has attached the following recommended goals to this form: (1) the percentage of "specimen inadequacy" should be 10% or less of all samples, (2) the percentage of "indeterminate" samples should be 10% or less of all "specimen adequacy" cases, and (3) 90% or more of "suspicious for malignancy" cases should be diagnosed as "malignant" in a subsequent histological examination. We hope that modification of this form, if it requires revision in the future, will be evidence-based, as was the process for compiling this set of rules.

The firm takes on the case of a Chicago alderman, Matthew Wade, who is charged with taking a $50,000 bribe. Wade is a good friend of Will Gardner who asks Diane to take the lead. The case takes on a whole new dimension when the Justice Department charges him with accepting money from a terrorist organization, which could lead to a thirty year sentence. The defense lawyers have 125 hours of wiretap conversations to listen to and Alicia is drafted into the team. She finds evidence that the charges are exaggerated but also that Eli Gold's telephone was under surveillance and Will Garner's personal conversations with Wade were captured. Eli is having his own problems when a video and fake Facebook page mocking Glen Childs' son appears. Eli also receives an interesting offer from Wendy Scott-Carr. Meanwhile, the feud between Kalinda and Blake reaches dangerous proportions.

By Emily Bazar, USA TODAY
It wasn't the U.S. economy that convinced Tao Guo to leave the USA. It was the Chinese economy.
BRAIN DRAIN: Talented workers opt to leave U.S.
After 24 years in the United States, the 46-year-old naturalized citizen moved to Shanghai in December to take a high-level position at WuXi AppTec, which does research for pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.
He's among a growing number of highly skilled immigrants who are leaving the USA to take jobs in their native countries, particularly India and China. The International Monetary Fund projects that China's gross domestic product will grow by 7.5% this year and India's by 5.4%. In the USA, the GDP is projected to contract by 2.6%.
"They see much more promise in the economic future of those countries," says Charles Hsu of Bay City Capital in San Francisco. "There's also a chance for them to move ahead much more rapidly in their careers."
At WuXi, 80% to 90% of senior managers returned to China from other countries, mostly the USA, says Rich Soll, vice president of medicinal chemistry.
"I have much bigger responsibility than I used to have," says Guo, the company's executive director of chemistry. Previously, he was director of chemistry for a pharmaceutical firm in New Jersey.
His wife and teenage children remain in the USA. He visits but plans to keep working in China. "It's more challenging," he says. "It's more rewarding."
Other skilled immigrants don't want to leave but say immigration-related delays give them no choice.
Nil Dutta, 37, came to the USA in 1999 on a student visa and after getting two master's degrees at the University of Michigan, he took a job at a European software company with offices here. He now has an H-1B visa for skilled workers.
Dutta, who lives in Hampton Roads, Va., applied for legal permanent residency, also called green-card status, in 2004 and most likely still faces years of waiting. The government is just now processing applications made in his category on or before April 15, 2001.
A maximum of 140,000 green cards are awarded on employment-based visas each year, and that quota is divided into categories for classes of workers and a set percentage for each country.
Applicants from India and China face especially long waits because more of them apply, says Bill Hing, law professor at the University of California-Davis. "Since there are more applicants than visas available each year, there's a carry-over to the next year," he says.
Dutta says the wait is wearing on him. Visa rules limit his family's travel, he says, and his ability to get a promotion.
He's considering returning to India, where he has two job offers. He says he's likely to make the move in the spring.
"I had a lot of enthusiasm and was very eager to work for this country. It's all fizzled out. It seems I'm not wanted," Dutta says. "In 10 to 15 years, I could be much better off in terms of position as well as money in India."

Auto enthusiasts know that a reliable name is built into each Audi, and understand that only top quality replacement S8 parts will suffice when repairs are needed. Obviously, you didn't buy your S8 unless you understood you would be getting long-lasting quality and a trusted brand both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV. Your Audi dealership isn't the only place to locate trusted repair parts to fix your S8. Audi vehicle enthusiasts have become used to a certain level of a reputation for performance when driving their S8 around town.
As a Audi S8 owner, you know the importance of quality engine intake parts. Your modern fuel-injection system uses its Audi S8 air mass sensor to measure the volume and density of the air traveling through the intake. Your ECU takes those measurements and calculates an optimum amount of fuel to be injected into the combustion chamber. That means that the highest power output and best fuel economy are being achieved by your car or truck.
Given all the hassles associated with installing a part to fix your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the number one store you go to make purchasing it easy. Don't let a broken Mass Air Flow MAF Sensor spell the end of your car, truck, or SUV, and don't risk lowering its resale value by installing anything but the highest quality repair parts. At Car Parts Discount, we have live customer service members on the phone with enough expertise to help you select the correct Audi S8 part for your project or repair. Just choose your year from the list below to find the right Audi S8 Mass Air Flow MAF Sensor for your 2009, 2008, 2007, 2003, 2002, 2001 model.

Beijing Teachers Experimental School
I had an amazing visit today to a local middle high school. It's a school of about 1800 7-11 graders and is one of the best in the city. I was able to watch both a high school statistics course and a middle school geometry course. I found both classes fascinating. In each one, the teachers focused the classes around probing questions to introduce new material and require students to think. The goal was a depth of understanding with very little focus on calculation ...

The mortality rate has been halved in four years at the Hampstead hospital and is 16 per cent compared to 24 per cent nationally.
Dr Sheldon Stone says patients are transferred quickly from A&E to the specialist unit, where they receive expert care from a team of different doctors.
He added: "This means that they can get the specialist care they need.
"There is little doubt that an adequately resourced stroke unit saves lives."
Patients are initially treated in the acute unit at the Royal Free.
Some can go straight home from there but others who need more rehabilitation are transferred to Queen Mary's House, part of the trust.

I've Come to Love Limeade
The old man, up in the tenth floor never leaves his apartment. I see delivery trucks come by with groceries and pizza. His windows are never open, I see that when I play in the street after school. Jimmy dared me to go knock on the door one night. The door was plain white, unpainted like the rest of the families living in the building. So I knocked on the door. Just once. I'd heard things about the man on the tenth floor. Horrible things. But those things can't be true. He isn't a warlock or werewolf. No, he is just a man. Isn't he?
I knocked on the door, twice this time, and louder so he could hear me. Still nothing rustled. I knocked a third and final time, and on the third knock, the door opened. I stood there with my hand up about to knock, when he appeared in the doorway. And then I quickly put it down.
The man was at least 5 inches shorter than I was. He stared at me with dull grey eyes. "What is it you want?" he asked me. I was speechless. I stammered, and said, "Uhh...err... well, sir... jimmy dared me to.... to come...." The man raised an eyebrow and then started to laugh. He laughed low and wheezy. Then, demanded, "Come in here, I am trying to hang a photograph. I can't reach high enough, and my hands are getting to old to use a hammer."
He led me in, then motioned for me to come in. I wandered in. I carefully trod on the thick brown-shag carpet. The entrance led into a dining room and kitchen, which were dimly lit and filled with dark wood. The walls were filled with pictures. Pictures were everywhere. Pictures of a family. Many younger kids, surrounded by many couples. Kids' school portraits and family portraits. On the dining room table was a large glass pitcher filled to the top with bright green drink and filled with ice. The man led me to the back of the dining room and handed me a hammer and a single nail. There was a step ladder leading to a small patch of blank wall unclustered with photographs. I climbed the ladder and he passed me a photograph. A newborn baby in its mother's arms. It had a red frame and wire attached to the back for hanging. "Right there, next to the picture of the boy," the man motioned with his finger. Carefully, I placed the nail into the wall and then hung the picture from it. I lightly tapped the picture until it was straightened on the wall.
"Limeade?" The man stood behind him with two glasses, pouring the green drink into one of them. I wasn't sure what to say. I'd heard things, but it would be rude to refuse. I took a glass, and sipped. It was different than other things I'd tasted. Kind of acidic and sour. But the man told me all about his family. He was actually really nice. Not a werewolf or a warlock. I came back the next day, when he needed help with his television set. And I drank more limeade. I've visited him several times a week for many weeks. I really didn't like limeade in my first sip. But now, I've come to love limeade.
Next color.... cream.

KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama) – Two men and a woman yesterday changed their plea to not guilty at the High Court on the charge of spreading the teachings of a deviant religious sect known as Millah Ibrahim@Abraham last year.
Mohamad Harizal Kamarudin, 37, and his wife, Nur Ridah Osman, 27, along with Kamarudin Annuar, 48, changed the plea when the case was mentioned before Syar'ie Judge Ibrahim Deris.
On Dec 10 last year, the court accepted the trio's guilty plea and set yesterday's date for sentencing.
When asked by the judge why they wanted to change the plea, their lawyer, Zaini Zainol said: "All my clients were not properly advised by their previous lawyer, causing them to be confused with the consequences of their plea."
"As such, we would like to file an application to withdraw the guilty plea made by the accused even though the court has convicted them of the offence," he added.
The court then set Jan 29 as the new date for sentencing.
According to charge sheets, Kamarudin, who is a workshop operator, was charged with spreading the deviant teachings at a business premises, B-2-3, Level 2, Block B, Jalan 2/142A, Megan Phoenix, Jalan Cheras between 9pm and 9.25pm on Oct 20, 2013.
The offence under Section 5 of the Syariah Criminal Offences (Federal Territories) Act 1997 carries a fine of up to RM3,000 or jail term of up to two years, or both.
Harizal and Nur Ridah, on the other hand, were charged with abetting the spreading of the deviant teachings at the same time and place.

Every person I know that has seen Only Lovers Left Alive has nothing but praise for it, of which I wholeheartedly agree. At the center of the tale are two vampires who, married, live in different parts of the world. After such a long physical separation, Adam and Eve (fantastic, right?) are reunited and are immediately inseparable as if no time has passed. This bliss doesn't last, however, when Eve's sister arrives and stirs up trouble in paradise.
As a special treat, we have two reviews for you, one from Michael aka Petrocs, and the other from Jeremy aka Spirit of the Thing.
Set against the romantic desolation of Detroit and Tangier, an underground musician, deeply depressed by the direction of human activities, reunites with his resilient and enigmatic lover.
Their love story has already endured several centuries at least, but their debauched idyll is soon disrupted by her wild and uncontrollable younger sister. Can these wise but fragile outsiders continue to survive as the modern world collapses around them?
