Apple Broadens Attack In Copyright Lawsuit
By ANDREW POLLACK,
Published: May 24, 1991
SAN FRANCISCO, May 23— In a surprise move, Apple Computer Inc. has opened a new line of attack in its copyright infringement lawsuit against Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard by asking the court to rescind a 1985 licensing agreement between Apple and Microsoft.
If Apple's request is granted it will leave the Microsoft Corporation and the Hewlett-Packard Company far more vulnerable to infringement claims, since the licensing agreement has been the central part of their defense.
The motion came to light at a hearing today to determine how the three-year-old case will proceed. Judge Vaughn R. Walker of the United States District Court in San Francisco said he would consider Apple's motion to amend its case to include the new request next month. The judge did not set a date for a trial, and it now appears likely that there will not be one as early as January, as Apple had requested.
In its March 1988 lawsuit, Apple said Microsoft's Windows 2.03 and Hewlett-Packard's New Wave programs infringed copyrights on the screen display of Apple's Macintosh. Both Windows and New Wave are programs aimed at making computers easier to use. Microsoft Licensing Agreement
Microsoft had a 1985 licensing agreement with Apple allowing it to use Macintosh copyrighted works in Windows. Because of that agreement, Apple's infringement charges have been whittled to a small number of features of Windows and New Wave not covered by the agreement.
Apple said the agreement should be rescinded because Microsoft defrauded Apple when it was signed. Apple's filing said Microsoft had promised at the time of the agreement that future versions of Windows would not look more like the Macintosh. But each subsequent version has become more similar to the Macintosh screen display.
Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard attorneys branded Apple's move as "desperate" and "preposterous," and as one by a company afraid it would lose the case. "We're on the five-yard line, the goal is in sight and Apple now shows up and says, 'How about lacrosse instead of football?' " said David T. McDonald, an attorney representing Microsoft.
Today's hearing resulted in no rulings on the case itself. But in remarks from the bench, Judge Walker seemed to suggest that he would rule against counterclaims by Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard charging Apple with filing a malicious lawsuit aimed at deterring competition.
Judge Walker said the counterclaims "are not serious," and that the case is not an antitrust case, adding, "This is a copyright case, so let's litigate it as a copyright case."
Judge Walker said that on June 14 he would consider Apple's motion to amend its case to include the request for rescinding the licensing agreement and to include Windows 3.0, the newest version of Microsoft's program, in the lawsuit. He said that on that day he would also reconsider a motion by Hewlett-Packard that he had previously ruled against, contending that Apple defrauded the United States Copyright Office to obtain its copyrights on the Macintosh.
The judge said he would consider the antitrust and malicious lawsuit counterclaims against Apple in July. He also suggested that he would set a date to hear motions by Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft that the features of the Macintosh that Apple says are being infringed are not protectable under copyright law. Hewlett-Packard and Microsoft lawyers say if they prevail on that defense, the case would end without a trial.

- GeForce GTX 560 Ti - 448 Cores (Fermi)
- PCI Express 2.0 x16
Some manufacturers place restrictions on how details of their products may be communicated.
love it! 12/20/2012
This review is from: EVGA 012-P3-2078-KR GeForce GTX 560 Ti - 448 Cores (Fermi) Classified Ultra 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
I swapped out my dual GTX 9800s with this single card... LOVE IT... I can tell a difference. Mechwarrior Online plays much more smoothly, my Windows Exp score is higher (which, who cares normally, but it actually SEEMS better)... just love the card...
not really a con, just a warning - if you have an old power supply, you will probably need adapters... these take two 6-pin connections, my older PS had an 8-pin and a 6-pin, not two 6s
Other Thoughts:
awesome card... well worth the money

CHAPTER THREE: Crossing the Rabbit's Path (9)
"My deeds speak for themselves," Bornen replied reproachfully, arms akimbo. "I've never needed a guild before, and I don't need one now!"
"Truly your deeds are merited justly, but they are centuries old." Noticing the elderly dwarf's reaction, he added politely, "I mean no offence – I'm just saying that things are done a little differently these days. You can't be an adventurer mucking about in dirty dungeons and secret repositories, plundering at your every whim undocumented. You just can't." Denthis silently tallied the number of corpses lying about, then continued scribbling.
"You can't?" The discouraged dwarf frowned. "Why not?"
"Well, it's illegal for one thing."
"It is?" Grom sounded more disheartened.
Denthis raised an eyebrow curiously as he lowered his quill, "By the gods boy, have you been living on the side of a mountain your whole life or something?"
"Well . . ." Grom averted his glance with an expression of embarrassment, "I guess you could say that. Yes."
"Oh," he said, "my humblest apologies. If that's so, then I suggest registering with a guild-" He looked down at Bornen's foot and concluded, "At your earliest convenience, of course."
"Why? What's it matter what we do with our own business?" Bornen asked defensively.
"And what does a guild have to do with adventuring?" Grom wondered.
Tiny grains of sand were quickly filtering from one chamber of a distant hourglass to the other in the depths of Denthis' mind. He closed the tome and shoved it into the pack hurriedly. "Look," he stated with a hint of impatience as he slunk the pack over his shoulders, "I wasn't joking when I said that I'm on a tight schedule. If you have more questions then seek out a guild, otherwise until this boy is registered he isn't really an adventurer. He needs his credentials, or it won't matter deeds he accomplishes. It wouldn't be . . . official." He shrugged indifferently. "Sorry Grom."
"It's settled then," Bornen seemed to have murmured to himself until adding resolutely, "if you need to be . . . what? This 'registered' nonsense, in order to qualify as an adventurer, then Denthis will take you to a guild!"
They both nearly reeled over from bewilderment as they asked confusedly, "What?"
"Oh no, no . . . I regret to decline such an honor, Bornen, but you see I'm really-"
"I'm not leaving you Papa – not in your condition."
"That's right! You've got your health to mind and-
"This is important, Grom. You need to be an adventurer," Bornen insisted with urgency, "because . . . Well, I-I can't explain it all myself. But this is your true calling; your destiny." Then he shifted his stare, which soured into sternness, and remarked to Denthis, "And you . . . you must take him to a guild that will prepare him for his future . . . for our future- No! for the future of the Realm!"

The Constable Tower
This tower was originally built as part of Henry III's curtain wall around the fortress and was constructed in c1239-41. During the end of the Elizabeth reign, it was used to house prisoners. It is possible that it was called the Constable Tower because, at some point, the Constable's lodgings were located in one of the buildings which used to adjoin it.
As part of the Fortress experience, the Constable Tower now contains a model that reconstructs the Tower of London in the middle of the Peasants' Revolt, 1381. From the scene of the break-in to the execution of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Simon Sudbury, the Constable Tower tells the story of the only time the royal fortress was ever breached.

Choose Your Plastic Surgeon Carefully

Your body is nothing to take chances with, so avoid the risk. Selecting a board-certified plastic surgeon from this list is your assurance that your doctor has the highest quality training and advanced surgical skills.
ABPS Certification and ASAPS Membership Matters
The ABPS is recognized by the American Board of Medical Specialties to certify doctors in the specialty of plastic surgery.

Members of ASAPS must be in at least their third year of active practice following ABPS certification.

Nvidia wants to counter the HD 4850 with the Geforce 9800 GTX+
Today AMD surprisingly cleared benchmark results of the HD 4850 for publishing. Nvidia answered at once: there will be a Geforce 9800 GTX with increased clock speeds.
The new Geforce 9800 GTX+ will have an effect onto the pricing structure: die "old" GTX 9800 drops to 199 US-Dollar, the 9800 GTX+ will be sold for 229 US-Dollar. Additionally the clock speeds will be increased: 738 Megahertz core clock and 1,836 Megahertz shader clock.
Also new is the support for Nvidia's Physx (with a new, yet to be released driver) and CUDA support for Folding@Home on the GPU. The 3-way SLI support is still available of course.
Nvidia nevertheless did not give an official release date.

Knife Fight is about on a level with the kind of comedy that shows up on Lifetime and the Hallmark Channel, with casts full of aging former TV stars. Movies like this give political satire a bad name.
Quibbling over Oscar nominations is as futile as quibbling over who left the cap off the toothpaste. No matter what you say or how emphatically you protest, you know it's going to happen again.

2009 was clearly a transitional and scary year for independents and biggies alike, with an uncertain theatrical future leading to developments in film availability online, on demand and via your computer.
Because there's no place for number bigotry in a free society and because I couldn't figure out which movie to drop -- to paraphrase Nigel from Spinal Tap -- this list goes to 11.
In the Loop spews forth countless barrages of vulgar, sarcastic, cold, and eminently witty dialogue that only the British can raise to the level of high art.
Armando Iannucci's new film, In the Loop positively vibrated with Sundance buzz last January. It reaches New York theaters Friday.
Power, as the film hilariously shows, is equal parts perception and bullshit -- and how you wield the latter to shape the former.

I shot the film on HD. I like to be able to improvise but also get a real, cinema verite film. I wanted it to feel raw like you're eavesdropping.

Auto enthusiasts know that a reliable name is built into each Jaguar, and understand that only the best repair XF parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing. The vehicle in your driveway is head and shoulders above the rest when it comes to all the cars, trucks, and SUVs currently being driven today. Jaguar automobile owners have become used to a certain level of a reputation for performance when driving their XF around town. Make no mistake, you didn't buy your XF unless you wanted to buy long-lasting quality and a trusted brand both rolled up into one car, truck, or SUV.
Keeping the interiors of our cars and trucks cool and comfortable has been possible since HVAC was pioneered around 70 years ago. The air conditioning uses a refrigerant called R134a to fuel a thermal reaction that emits cold air, and the A/C condenser on your Jaguar XF acts like a radiator (it also looks like one) by cooling the refrigerant after it leaves the compressor, and then sends it to the drier and expansion valve. You will usually find your Jaguar XF A/C condenser mounted at the front of your vehicle near the radiator, because that is the best place for it to absorb the air stream as your car or truck moves down the road. If your A/C condenser has sprung a leak, then you will likely notice your air conditioning blowing lukewarm air as a result of the lack of refrigerant.
Get your XF back on the road with the highest quality repair parts from the experts at Car Parts Discount. Buy all the car parts you will ever need from carpartsdiscount.com and realize incredible savings on all your upcoming repairs. Given all the hassles associated with installing a part to fix your car or truck, let www.carpartsdiscount.com be the first place you go to make purchasing it easy. If your car or truck was built in 2014, 2013, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009, then you will find the correct Jaguar XF A/C Condenser parts right here.

Washington, Feb 26 (ANI): Based on 20 years of research, this is how Otzi the Iceman might have looked: brown eyed, furrow faced bearded, and tired.
Realized by two Dutch experts, Alfons and Adrie Kennis, the model was produced with the latest in forensic mapping technology that uses three-dimensional images of the mummy's skull as well as infrared and tomographic images.
The new reconstruction shows a prematurely old man, with deep-set eyes, sunken cheeks, a furrowed face and ungroomed beard and hair, reports Discovery News.
Although he looks tired, Otzi has vivid brown eyes. Indeed, recent research on the 5,300-year-old mummy has shown that the Stone Age man did not have blue eyes as previously thought.
Believed to have died around the age of 45, Otzi was about 1.60 meters tall and weighed 50 kilograms.
The model will go on display beginning March 1 to Jan. 15, 2012, at the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano, Italy. ANI)

The .exe extension on a filename indicates an executable file. Executable files may, in some cases, harm your computer. Therefore, please read below to decide for yourself whether the SynTPHelper.exe on your computer is a Trojan that you should remove, or whether it is a file belonging to the Windows operating system or to a trusted application.
The process known as Synaptics Pointing Device Helper belongs to software Synaptics Pointing Device Driver by Synaptics (www.synaptics.com).
Description: SynTPHelper.exe is not essential for the Windows OS and causes relatively few problems. SynTPHelper.exe is located in a subfolder of "C:\Program Files".
Known file sizes on Windows 10/8/7/XP are 103,720 bytes (16% of all occurrences), 121,640 bytes and 37 more variants.
The program has no visible window. The SynTPHelper.exe file is a Verisign signed file. The file is a Microsoft signed file. It is digitally signed. The SynTPHelper.exe file is not a Windows system file. SynTPHelper.exe is able to monitor applications. Therefore the technical security rating is 1% dangerous, however you should also read the user reviews.
Recommended: Identify SynTPHelper.exe related errors
If SynTPHelper.exe is located in a subfolder of the user's profile folder, the security rating is 45% dangerous. The file size is 74,752 bytes. The program has no visible window. The file is not a Windows system file.
Important: Some malware camouflages itself as SynTPHelper.exe, particularly when located in the C:\Windows or C:\Windows\System32 folder, for example W64.Xpiro.F or WS.Reputation.1 (detected by Symantec), and Mal/Generic-S (detected by Sophos). Therefore, you should check the SynTPHelper.exe process on your PC to see if it is a threat. We recommend Security Task Manager for verifying your computer's security.

Always remember to perform periodic backups, or at least to set restore points.
Should you experience an actual problem, try to recall the last thing you did, or the last thing you installed before the problem appeared for the first time. Use the 6resmon command to identify the processes that are causing your problem. Even for serious problems, rather than reinstalling Windows, you are better off repairing of your installation or, for Windows 8 and later versions, executing the 7DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth command. This allows you to repair the operating system without losing data.
To help you analyze the SynTPHelper.exe process on your computer, the following programs have proven to be helpful: ASecurity Task Manager displays all running Windows tasks, including embedded hidden processes, such as keyboard and browser monitoring or Autostart entries. A unique security risk rating indicates the likelihood of the process being potential spyware, malware or a Trojan.

text: I won an auction on eBay on the 9th, paid for it within minutes as well as a $10 for priority 2-3 day shipping. Here I am 7 days later and no hat. I contacted the seller and found out that he did not even ship the hat until 4 days after the auction ended. Seems to me that kind of negates the 2-3 day shipping I paid for. I spent close to 30 years in various customer service roles and can find no justification in this type of behavior. I know nothing can be done, just wondering if it is just my luck or have others encountered this same type situation. Please excuse me if this type post is not allowed. I felt the need to vent.

As football matches are called off and Parliament is recalled (a pointless exercise, simply to prove that not all politicians are on their sunloungers) we are in danger of losing our heads and over- reacting. A plethora of Facebook sites have been set up this week, including Stop the Notting HIll Carnival Now and Stop the Notting Hill Carnival for Safety Sake. The social networking sites are in danger of becoming anti-social sites.
There were similar calls to cancel the Carnival after the July bombings in 2005 but it went ahead. Just as we shouldn't give in to terrorists, so we shouldn't capitulate to a bunch of opportunistic hoodlums who barely number a few hundred. If we can't even organise a Carnival, what sort of message will this send to the world about the Olympics?
Yes, it will be a drain on police resources - but it is a drain every year and it's up to the police and the organisers to liaise and make sure it passes off without major incident.
In fact given that more than a million people attend, it is astonishing how little disorder there is at Carnival. Gradual improvements have been made such as earlier start and finishing times. Scale it back further, if we must, but don't let the killjoys win the day. For many people it is the highlight of the year; hundreds of steel drummers have spent months rehearsing. It would be a shame if all their hard work went to waste.
We should not forget that huge swathes of London stayed riot-free. And as the residents of Clapham and Croydon demonstrated, far more people are willing to clean up the streets than trash them. Our streets should be reclaimed by those who love them. And there is no better example of this community spirit than the Notting Hill Carnival. Let the steel drums ring out. But please, please when it's all over, can it be relocated next year?
* Mat Collishaw, a former Young British Artist, complains that the world of street art is overrun by the middle classes and is full of the privileged few who are affecting a political conciousness. I can only assume he means Banksy. I wonder if he approves of the graffiti painters who daubed "Welcome to Hackney" on the walls and hoardings after the riots. Not all of them came from privileged backgrounds - but does that make their street art any more artistic?
Getting to the bottom of actors' interaction
Jeremy Irons says a pat on a woman's bottom shouldn't end up in court. "It's communication. Can't we be friendly?" he asks.
Well, it depends on the size of the bottom, I suppose. Some people may not want to be reminded they have a large behind. And even those with small posteriors may not welcome this unsolicited advance.
Sexual harassment? No, but it is certainly bad manners. There's friendliness and then there's over-friendliness. And why can't he communicate with his mouth like the rest of us?
But perhaps I am being too harsh. Actors are by their very nature touchy-feely and there is clearly no harm in letting them touch each other's bottoms. How marvellous it would be, darling, if the fleeting luvvie kiss (mwah, mwah) could be replaced with the luvvie bottom pat.
The distractions of a night at the outdoor opera
This week I achieved a long-held ambition and attended the Holland Park Opera. The production of Verdi's Rigoletto was most enjoyable and a perfect respite from all the grim news of economic meltdown and riots. Not a hoodlum in sight nor a screeching peacock, which I gather used to be a perennial problem.
Instead, opera-goers have a new alien to contend with - the pesky parakeets. Luckily they were drowned out by some fine singing. But soon a worse distraction was to befall me.
Shortly before the Duke's cynical canzone, "La donna e mobile" (woman is fickle), my wife turned to me and said she recognised the conductor was an old boyfriend from university. News to me. Wife imitating art?

Random Facts About Me
I hate it when power points are switched on and nothing is plugged in.
When I hang out the washing the pegs on each item have to be the same colour.
I can make my thumb touch my wrist.
Chickens scare the crap out of me, with their weird beady eyes and awkward walk.
The word gash is one of the worst sounding words in my opinion.
I like to say words repeatedly to see if they sound weird the more you say it.
I swear more than most males I know, actually I've even shocked some with what I come out with.
I once drew a stick person for one of my kids and they thought it was a tree.
Music and Lollies are all I need to be 'drunk'.
A certain friend of mine and I can have a day long texting conversation involving nothing but song lyrics and it still makes sense.
Sometimes I wish life were a musical just so I could do a random dance number in public without people looking at me strangely.
Not So Random Facts
3 kids & was a teen mum, twice I guess.
Some Sayings I Live By
A life without passion is simply an existance.
While you were busy judging others, your skeletons fell out of your closet.
Everybody is perfect, flaws and all. Perfection is all about being the best YOU you can be, nobody else can be you as perfectly as you can - therefore making you all perfect.
If you have to search too hard to find the good in someone, then maybe you're not the one who is supposed to find it.
Life's Big Questions
Why is it called a savings account when it's mostly used for spending?
Why is it called 'earning a living?' Isn't living a right we are all born with?
What if our dreams are actually realities and what we see as reality is really our dreams?
Why do so many people insist on having freshly baked bread to make toast?
How come glue doesn't stick to the inside of the bottle?
Thats about all for now.

Thermaltake Blue Orb
Thermaltake Blue Orb
By: TweakTown Staff | CPU Air Coolers in Cases, Cooling & PSU | Posted: Jul 11, 2001 4:00 am
Comment () | Email to a Friend | Font Size: AA
TweakTown Rating: 8.0%Manufacturer: Thermaltake
Introduction Thermaltake made it's claim to fame when they released a high performance cooler called the Golden Orb, a new cooler for slot and socket coolers which performed quite well compared to Global Win and Alpha. Not to long ago, we here at TweakTown got a email from Kenny at Thermaltake asking would we like to test their latest Orb cooler and we replied saying we would be more than happy to. I was quite surprised when I got it, it was blue, small and sexy, Thermaltake have popped out a baby orb for chipsets!
The blue orb is a chipset sized cooler, from the pictures we can see its almost identical to the CPU orbs made by Thermaltake only smaller. The blue orb is almost 1cm bigger in diameter than the traditional chipset coolers. The Blue orb connects using pushdown pins that align with the old pin holes that are on most motherboards that hold down the traditional green heatsink or the holes on most video cards like Geforce, TNT2U and many other heatsinks. The orb gets its power from a standard 3 pin fan header, unfortunately this cooler only has a very short cable and unless you have a fan header real close to the AGP slot if you want to use it for AGP cards you will be out of luck and will have to buy and extension cable. The fan itself is a high performance ball bearing fan maxing out at around 4500RPM its pretty quiet compared to other chipset coolers. As we can see from the pictures we can see just how big this chipset cooler is. Due to its size if you use it on your video card you will loose the use of the PCI slot under the AGP card, this is not normally a problem to most people as PCI 1 shares the same IRQ as the AGP slot and not many people want devices sharing the same IRQ as their video cards. Specifications P/N: TGF020 Application Chipset cooler Dimensions: 55dia X 20mm tall Clip Type Push Pin clip included for easy installation Fan Size: 43dia x 15 mm 3-wire fan with tachometer Rated Voltage (V): 12 volt Noise Level(dBA): 26 db Rated Speed(RPM): 4600 RPM Heat Sink Material: Aluminum 6030 Thermal Resistance: Theta ca=0.47degC/w Special Feature Radial Fin design to increase heat dissipation Highest performance for a active heat sink Testing For the tests we used a Nvidia Geforce2 MX (MSI Starforce 816), Nvidia Riva TNT2 Ultra (ASUS V3800) and the MSI K7T Pro motherboard's KT133 Chipset for comparisons. We used a digital thermal probe to record the temperatures...
- Nvidia Riva TNT2 Ultra Stock Heatsink Idle: 27 Stock Heatsink Stressed: 35 Blue Orb Idle: 22 Blue Orb Stressed: 30.5 We can see that the blue orb does make quite a difference on the TNT2 Ultra, most TNT2 Ultra's heatsink are a bit too small. - Nvidia Geforce2 MX Stock Heatsink Idle: 25 Stock Heatsink Stressed: 37 Blue Orb Idle: 20 Blue Orb Stressed: 28.9 We can see again the Blue Orb performing better than the heatsink on the MSI Starforce 816 video card; this is to be expected, as the stock heatsink is a passive cooler and not active cooling. - MSI K7T Pro KT133 Chipset Stock Heatsink Idle: 24 Stock Heatsink Stressed: 29 Blue Orb Idle: 22 Blue Orb Stressed: 27 Again the Blue Orb outperforms the green heatsink on the MSI K7T Pro but not by much, this is due to the KT133 chipset producing a lot less heat than most chipsets. Conclusion Thermaltake have once again made another winner, design is good, size is just about right and performance is above average, with only a few niggles which can be sorted out in later revisions this cooler get a 8 out of 10.

3 TSX "Loser" Stocks to Bet on

Finding stocks to bet on that are temporarily beaten down but ready for a comeback are often the hardest to recognize. Who's to know whether a stock that's off 10% on the year isn't in the first leg of a long, drawn-out journey to the bottom, rather than simply experiencing a typical correction when a stock has gotten a little ahead of itself?
The simple answer is, you don't.
In early June, I picked three stocks that I thought were due to recover, despite appearing to be down and possibly out. Of the three, Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc. (TSX:ATD.B) was the stock with the best track record, so its chances of recovering from an almost 6% decline through the first five months of the year seemed the most realistic. After all, you can't keep a good stock down.
Here's how they've done through November 14:
Three TSX stocks that are down but not out: June 8 to November 14
|Alimentation Couche-Tard
|Linamar Corporation (TSX:LNR)
|Empire Company Limited (TSX:EMP.A)
Source: Google Finance
Of the three I picked to recover, Couche-Tard was the stock to rise to the occasion. Linamar, like many of the other auto parts makers, can't seem to find any traction, and Empire Company continues to hopelessly try to find its bearings in Canada's highly competitive grocery business. It will come back, but not until later next year or into 2018.
So, now I'll repeat the process picking three more "loser" stocks (none of the three above and with a market cap above $1 billion) that are down more than 5% year-to-date through November 14. To make it interesting, my three picks will have to reverse their losses by the end of the year in order to qualify as a successful turnaround. I'll report back in early January.
Gildan Activewear Inc. (TSX:GIL)(NYSE:GIL)
Its stock jumped more than 5% on the news it was buying the rights to the American Apparel name for $66 million. The deal gives Gildan the use of the name along with some of American Apparel's inventory, but it will not be taking over any of its retail stores.
While Gildan might not be having a great year in the markets, I recently highlighted three reasons to own Gildan stock. I stand by those reasons, and, with any luck, its stock will gain another $4 between now and the New Year.
North West Company Inc. (TSX:NWC)
The food retailer specializes in serving rural communities in the northernmost parts of Canada as well as the Caribbean and the South Pacific. Down 12.0% year-to-date through November 14, it's heading for its first year of negative returns since 2008.
Its performance has been steady, if not spectacular, over the past decade with just one down year (2008) when it was off by 12.8%. However, compared to the TSX, it's been a star performer, beating the index by 539 basis points on an annual basis over a 10-year period.
With a 5.1% dividend yield, I'm happy to get paid to wait for its stock to recover. It rarely goes on sale, so now is the time to buy.
Cascades Inc. (TSX:CAS)
With the exception of its European boxboard business, Cascades's packaging products division is having a reasonably good year, as is its tissue paper business, with overall company revenue up 4.5% to $3.02 billion in the nine months ended September 30, while its operating income in the same period is up 10.4%. Yet its stock is down 8.5% through November 14.
Although TD Securities cut Cascades's 12-month price target November 11 by one dollar to $15.50 as a result of its third-quarter earnings report, it still rates its stock a buy, as do five other analysts. If it were to hit that target within six weeks, it would definitely qualify as a turnaround, but that's probably asking for too much given it achieved a total return of 83% in 2015.

tv episodes The 12 Most Frequent SNL Hosts f p @
At the moment, there are a dozen members of the so-called "Saturday Night Live Five Timers' Club," meaning they've hosted the show at least five times (some way more than that). Are they the funniest hosts ever? Some are, some aren't (in my opinion). Some people with the most SNL host appearances are ones who I would happily never see on that stage again. I've included plenty of videos, as well, so you can check out the Five Timers past monologues.
Enjoy this list of the most frequent Saturday Night Live hosts, and be sure to vote for your favorites! If you're craving more SNL goodness, check out these lists of the best 'Saturday Night Live' monologues of all time, the top 'SNL' original cast sketches and the best 'SNL' live sketches of the 1990s!
Alec Baldwin is a funny guy. He's a likable guy. And he's a really good 'Saturday Night Live' host. So good, in fact, that he has passed Steve Martin and is the current record holder for most times hosting the show: 17, to be exact.
Here, Baldwin hosts for the 15th time, during the season finale of 'Saturday Night Live's' 35th season (May 15, 2010). And he explains that he and Steve Martin aren't rivals. Really. He also delivers a hilarious 'SNL' commencement address.
Alexander Rae "Alec" Baldwin III is an American actor, producer, and comedian. As a member of the Baldwin family, he is the oldest of the four Baldwin brothers, all well-known actors. Baldwin first gained recognition appearing on seasons 6 and 7 of the CBS television drama Knots Landing, in the role ...more

Steve Martin has hosted 'Saturday Night Live' a record 15 times (tied with Alec Baldwin, at least until Baldwin bests him when he hosts in September of 2011). Martin entered the "Five Timer" club when he hosted 'SNL' on April 22, 1978. Since then, he's hosted several additional times, and he delivered a brilliant opening monologue in December of 1991. Just awesome. And no, Martin was never an 'SNL' cast member.
Stephen Glenn "Steve" Martin is an American comedian, actor, musician, writer, and producer. Martin came to public notice as a writer for the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, and later became a frequent guest on The Tonight Show.

John Goodman has hosted 'SNL' more than a dozen times over the decades, joining the "Five Timers" club in May of 1994. He marked his 8th time as a 'Saturday Night Live' host in May of 1997, during the show's 22nd season. In his monologue, Goodman showed off his 70-pound weight loss and then tried to come to grips with the specifics of the show. Which he knows well. Because he's hosted eight times, "Leon!"
John Stephen Goodman is an American actor who is known for his comedic and dramatic roles. Early in his career, he was best known for playing Dan Conner on the television series Roseanne, for which he won a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in 1993. He is also a regular collaborator with the Coen ...more

In 2016 Tom Hanks broke his tie with Chevy Chase, hosting 'SNL' for the ninth time. He's definitely one of 'Saturday Night Live's' favorite hosts. His monologues were always great - but his appearances in skits? Off the charts funny!
In December of 1990, Tom Hanks gained membership into the exclusive "Five Timers" 'SNL' club - a fact he hammers home in his monologue, showing his membership card and then giving viewers a peek into the exclusive club.
And yes, that IS Conan O'Brien as "Sean!"

The awesomeness that is Christopher Walken has graced the 'SNL' stage as a host seven times. Basically, if he wants to host, he's got a gig. Lorne Michaels likes him that much, and so do I. His monologues are always interesting, and his skits? Well, from 'The Continental' to the (now infamous) 'Behind the Music' Blue Oyster Cult sketch (more cowbell!), they are simly hysterically funny. In 2008, Walken appeared in the skit "Meet the Family" - an instant Walken classic.
Christopher Walken is an American actor.

Chevy Chase is one of only two original 'SNL' cast members to host the show more than five times (we'll get to the other one in a minute). Chase, who was an original cast member when 'Saturday Night Live' first aired, left in 1976 - gone, but never forgotten. He returned to host 'SNL' eight times, most recently in 1997. In this clip, he's hosting 'SNL' in 1985 (season 11) - and having some memory lapses, apparently.
Cornelius Crane "Chevy" Chase is an American comedian, actor, and writer. Born into a prominent New York family, Chase worked a plethora of odd jobs before he moved into comedy and began acting with National Lampoon.

Drew Barrymore has hosted 'Saturday Night Live' six times, and not only is she a member of the 'SNL' Five Timers club, she also holds the record as the youngest person to ever host the show. On November 20, 1982, a then 7-year-old Drew took the 'SNL' stage to deliver her first monologue. Barrymore is one of only two women to host the show five times (Candice Bergen is the other).

Taylor Wessing has launched a new division offering automated data mining, due diligence and contract management services to its clients, as an alternative to outsourcing.
The City firm has teamed up with client Swiss Post Solutions (SPS) to develop the technology for its New Street Solutions (NSS) arm.
The technology has been in development over the last year, with the firm offering it to clients for the first time earlier this month. The initiative is being led by Taylor Wessing's financial institutions and markets head Tim Stocks, working alongside NSS chief executive Philip Learmont.
Although the technology is initially being offered to Taylor Wessing clients as part of the firm's suite of services, it is envisaged that NSS could become a stand-alone entity to be used by other law firms.
Learmont commented: "The hope is that this will change the way that this type of work is done. If it does change the market then where NSS might go is open to speculation."
The system offers the ongoing ability for clients to digitise its paper documentation, as well as to use the due diligence software on individual transactions.
Taylor Wessing has hired staff to man the operation and does not envisage any redundancies among lawyers previously engaged in the type of work covered by the technology.
Stocks added: "We see this as allowing our solicitors to focus on higher value work."

It's nearly wedding season, and if you have a friend or family member who's tying the knot, it's easy to get lost in wedding registries and home stores looking for the perfect gift.
If you're clueless about what to buy, and you don't want to be limited to the wedding registry, MainStreet thinks you should at least rule out a few things first, to avoid flubbing your well-wishes to the newlyweds.
Chances are you know one half of the couple better than the other. When picking out a wedding gift, however, you'll want to choose something both husband and wife can enjoy together. After all, if you don't, you could unintentionally contribute to some early marital strife.
Some of these may be good gift ideas on their own for one person on a birthday or holiday, but these items aren't likely to be a hit among many newlyweds.
Game Systems
Unless both halves of this marrying couple like to play video games, getting a Nintendo Wii, Microsoft (Stock Quote: MSFT) Xbox or other video game system as a wedding gift could cause an early rift in your friends' marital life, even if you genuinely intend it as a gift that can bring the couple closer together.
What's more, if one of them is already an avid gamer and isn't already overweight, hours on end of playing video games could lead to more than a few extra pounds, which may not be be too popular with his or her better half.

1985 Ford Mustang
1966 Ford Bronco
1965 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa coupe
1983 Porsche 944
The rear-air induction hood was dropped in favor of a ducted-air cleaner to the lower grille area to reduce induction noise.
Most of the focus on the collector car world comes from televised auctions where six-figure cars are the norm, so it's easy to conclude that the average person is priced out of the collector car world. But the fact of the matter is there are still plenty of interesting collectible cars out there for under 10 grand. Granted, they tend to be from the 1970s and 1980s rather than the 1950s or 1960s, but they're all fun to drive and relatively easy to live with. Here are five of our favorites:
1985-93 Ford Mustang: The third generation or "Fox" platform Mustang brought affordable V-8 muscle back to the masses. Although it was introduced in 1979, better breathing cylinder heads and a re-designed four-barrel carburetor in 1985 pushed horsepower above 200 for the first time since the early 1970s. The relatively light and simple design of the car made the best use of the newfound ponies. While the oldest are just under 30 years old, the collector world is starting to wake up. Still, nice 5.0-liter V-8 examples of all three body styles (coupe, hatchback and convertible) are still available in LX and GT trim for 10 grand or less.
1966-77 Ford Bronco:- The Bronco pushes the 10 grand budget the most and you'll have to look hard to find an unrusted or unmodified original Bronco in this price range, but they do occasionally lurk on Craigslist. Competition for the likes of the International Harvester Scout, early Broncos look right in the way that early Land Rovers do and collectors have taken a big shine to them lately. Buy now.
1965-69 Chevrolet Corvair Corsa coupe: The poor Corvair. Shunned by Chevy fans and import fans alike, it really is a poor-man's Porsche, with styling on the second generation cars as nice as anything to come out of Germany, Italy or the U.S. at that time. Corvairs pioneered the use of turbocharging, and later cars could be made to handle quite well with some relatively inexpensive modifications, in spite of what Ralph Nader said. Incidentally, the 50th anniversary of the book "Unsafe at Any Speed" is coming up the year after next. Good reason to buy a Corvair, we think. Jay Leno loves his red Corsa Coupe.
1983-91 Porsche 944 coupe: The vintage Porsche market is on fire right now, with some cars appreciating 300 percent or more over the last five years. All have one thing in common — they're air cooled and the engine is in the back. Water-cooled front-engine Porsches have yet to see the love from collectors, and we think that the 944 is one of the best of the bunch. A derivative of the nicely balanced but underpowered 924, the fender bulges and smoother and more powerful balance shaft-equipped twin-cam four was just was Dr. Porsche ordered to make the 944 a credible performance car. Maintenance doesn't come cheaply (break a timing belt and you'll wish you hadn't been born), but the 944 is a bargain-priced precision instrument for dissecting curvy back roads.
1976 Chevrolet Corvette: Malaise-era Corvettes get a bum rap from most Corvette fans but in reality, they're quite nice and anything but pathetically slow. The move from gross to net horsepower makes it seem as though power was down more than it really was, and mid-1970s Corvettes came in some great colors with nice options like competition-inspired gymkhana suspension and aluminum wheels. Looks weren't really compromised by bumper standards with Chevy's solution of hiding the bumpers under body-colored urethane panels among the best of any manufacturer.
During the holiday season, everyone is looking for a bargain. Here are five of our favorite vintage performance cars, all priced at less than a modestly-equippe … More

When it comes to writing about myself however, describing my life and my very own experiences that make me who I am and that describe the very essence of me: I don't know.

chapters 17-25
Julia and her mom get in a car accident, and Julia recognizes the strength her m0ther has obtained from the slowing, even though at the same time, she is becoming weak too. Her father's affair with Sylvia is continuing, and the guilt he carries with him becomes obvious when Julia gives him a little back talk and his persona remains serene. Julia herself is experiencing a few problems in her own love life when Seth Moreno returns home and she is still no closer to him than she was before he left
A major theme in this story is "Not all people are translucent." This is the case for most characters in The Age Of Miracles, for example; Julia's parents. Both are very hard to "read" in the sense that it seems that Julia thinks she knows her parents until the slowing happens, and she starts to catch a glimpse of the darker sides they have been hiding.
The author gives very "traditional" roles referring to the genders. The woman is usually seen as weak, as in this case with Julia's mother. She is sick and emotionally unstable. Julia's father also fits the traditional gender role of "the man of the house". Usually, it is the father that works late that, after a catastrophe, starts to find refuge in the arms of another person. The stereotypes in this book are very real. You can also see stereotypes in Gabby. She is an example of a troubled teen, including her lawyer mother that she hates.

Five things Gators need to do in the Florida opener...
Put the pedal to the metal… We all want to see offense. The number one thing that needs to happen is to open it up, throw the ball, run the ball, whatever it takes, and get the ball up and down the field and in the end zone. This is expected this year to a much greater extent than what we have seen and especially against a team like Idaho, they of the 36 point underdog variety. Just try and score and don't stop trying until the buzzer sounds at the end of the game.
Driskel off the mat and into the fast lane… It is a new offense so to expect things to be close to perfect to start the season is a little unrealistic. Still, this offense is supposed to be perfect for Driskel's skill set. Let's see him use every weapon in his arsenal and have the look of a guy in charge and sure of himself behind center.
Secondary with big plays… The youth in the secondary can be a scary thing. We may see a lot of playing time from as many as four freshmen in the secondary. Nothing can get these guys over the hump and into the zone like making a big play or two. They have the right people teaching them in head coach Will Muschamp and secondary coach Travaris Robinson. Big things are sure to come, but they can be ramped up quite a bit with a few big plays on Saturday.
Offensive Line moving people around… They seem to be as healthy as we have had here in well over a year. They will face the best unit at Idaho, but that shouldn't compare to most of the SEC defensive lines they will see this year. The offensive line, more than anything has to act as a unit and be able to move the Vandals as much as they want to. They need to open big holes for the backs and supply adequate protection for the added long balls we want to see this season. They also need to get some young guys in to help start their development.
Pass Rush… I am pretty confident in a lot of above, but of this I am most confident after watching the boys practice this fall. I know people will point to the offensive line getting beat, but you can just see the body changes on the defensive linemen and their body language on the field, especially the guys outside and the pass rushers. I expect a big year from a pass rushing stand point although I believe Idaho will quick pass the Gators all night to make it more difficult. Still, I want to see the PRESSURE I am expecting.
