Who Will Win World Cup? Another Bank Bets on Brazil
Deutsche Bank is the latest investment bank applying its computer models to World Cup predictions, rather than foreign exchange strategy or economics. And it, like Goldman Sachs, it has its bets on Brazil.
In a report this week, Deutsche put the probability of the host team winning at 12%, though that's much lower than bookmakers' predictions, which give the team a 24.5% chance of winning. Germany, Spain and France have the next best chances, according to Deutsche.

Maoists may have links with LeT: Raman Singh
Two days after Maoists blew up a bus killing 31 people, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh Wednesday described Leftwing extremism as the worst form of terrorism and said the rebels may have links with the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba terror outfit.
New Delhi: Two days after Maoists blew up a bus killing 31 people, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Raman Singh Wednesday described Leftwing extremism as the worst form of terrorism and said the rebels may have links with the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba terror outfit.
"It is the worst form of terrorism. Killing civilians, attacking public transport, attacking school buses, punishing people and beating them. What is this? Isn`t it terrorism? They are spreading terror," Singh said here of the rebels who are entrenched in parts of central and eastern India.
He said although he didn`t have confirmation there were indications that "Naxals (Maoists) may have some connection with Lashkar militants".
"The way they are using explosives and weapons with 100 percent technical surety shows there are experts behind who are giving them training," he said.
Singh spoke just two days Maoist guerrillas carried out the worst massacre after slaughtering 76 security personnel on April 6 in a forested stretch of Dantewada district.
The April 6 attack was the worst loss for security forces at the hands of Maoists since the insurgency erupted in 1967.
Giving details of Maoist violence in the last 10 years in the state, Singh said they had killed 1,000 civilians and over 650 policemen, and blown up 132 electric towers, 106 school buildings and three hospitals.
But Singh came out against air strikes on Maoists fearing it would cause collateral damage. But he said aerial support to paramilitary troopers and police fighting Maoists was welcome from the logistic point of view.
The chief minister said that Maoists had mined large swathes of near impregnable forests in the state. In case of a blast, "it takes hours to take the injured to hospital by road".
"Army helicopters can be used here. And also for supplying emergency rations. But I don`t recommend use of air power as Chhattisgarh has a huge thick forest cover inhabited by tribals, If any such attack is launched, they will suffer greatly. Bombing is not possible in these areas. This is not a war," he said.
Singh said that Monday`s attack on a bus in a forested stretch of Chhattisgarh that killed 31 civilians and special police officers was aimed at targeting civilians "because they support the government".
The chief minister, who reached New Delhi Wednesday morning and was to meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Home Minister P. Chidambaram, said the Maoist problem cannot be tackled overnight.
"We need to be prepared for a long-drawn war. But we are moving in the right direction," he said.

Silverstone coy on reported Jaguar Land Rover bid
LONDON (Reuters) - Silverstone said on Thursday it had received no formal offer from Indian-owned luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover amid media reports of a planned bid for the British Grand Prix circuit.
The British Racing Drivers' Club (BRDC) that owns the central English track and surrounding land said in a statement that it received a number of confidential approaches and considered them on their merits.
"Should an attractive offer be received from any party, the BRDC Board would seek a mandate from Club members before progressing it," it added.
A Silverstone Circuit spokeswoman added that "there has been no formal offer received from JLR". There was no immediate comment from the carmaker.
The Financial Times and other media reported that JLR, owned by Tata Motors, had prepared a bid after asking property consultant Cushman&Wakefield in July to value the site.
It said that, under the terms being considered, Silverstone would become JLR's home with a 'heritage center' to show off the company's cars, offices, a hotel and visitor center.
The market value of the circuit, industrial units and land for potential development was put at 22.7 million pounds ($33.87 million).
Jaguar, at the time owned by Ford, had their own Formula One team between 2000 and 2004 before selling to Red Bull. They also have a long tradition in sportscar racing at Le Mans.
Silverstone, the site of a former World War Two airfield, hosted the first Formula One championship grand prix in 1950 and has a long-term contract for the British round. Continued...

Ocean ParadiseMature
Yes, I'm a mermaid. Yes, I have a tail and long flowing hair. And yes, to mortals I'm very beautiful.
And as for that myth that we lure sailors to their death, it's false. Completely false. Where did that story even come from? I mean, yes sailors fall in love with us, and I'll admit, we fall in love with them sometimes, but we don't lure them. What good would that do for us?
Sharp teeth? Sure, but in the sense that you mortals have sharp teeth. As in, only sharp enough to chew the little meat we eat, mostly seafood.
Well, obviously we live underwater. When we go on land, we do not grow legs, but we don't die either. We just can't move very well. We kinda just sit there. That's why we're not on land very often.
And our underwater kingdom. Man, you mortals are blind. You pass by it all the time. I'm always amazed when ou don't see it. The castle is a wonder. Made of the purest, deepest blue sapphire, the tallest tower stands over 100 feet tall. Even the poorest of our subjects has a house made of a precious stone or gem, and at least 5 children.
We are immortal, to an extent. There are many ways to kill us, you puny mortals just haven't figured them out yet. So until then, we'll be with you forever.

Interview Horror Stories: 7 Things That Will Leave the Wrong Impression
Posted by Staff Writer on May 6, 2013
We've heard it before—it only takes 30 seconds to make a first impression. An interview is no exception. Since an interview is when we want to make the best impression, there is little room for error in how we present ourselves.
Minnesota School of Business-Blaine hosted an employer panel for students in the Career Development class, so that students could hear from employers what it is that will make them stand out in the job search.
Six employers sat on the panel, representing a variety of industries. They included: Lynne Hendrick from Clinical Research Institute; Karen Giles Kingsbury from Creative Design and More; Melissa O'Neill from Guaranty Bank; Julie Dagen from Verizon Wireless; Lindsey McInnis from Premier Disability; and Andrew Pearce from Aerotek.
The students had the opportunity to ask a variety of questions about resumes, cover letters and interviewing.
The final question asked gave the panelists an opportunity to share some experiences of candidates who, let's just say, didn't get the job.
Below are the panelists' seven interview horror stories:
- Chomping gum – Although it's great to have fresh breath during your interview, it's not the time to chomp on your bubble gum. In fact, it's best not to have gum in your mouth at all during an interview.
- Ripped jeans/Tennis shoes – No matter what type of job you're interviewing for, it's a good idea to dress professionally. Ripped jeans and tennis shoes never fall into the professional category. If you need some professional clothes at an affordable cost, try TJ Maxx, Marshalls, or thrift shops. All carry professional clothes at a cost that isn't going to break the bank.
- Personal hygiene (or lack thereof) – "I had someone come in for an interview with a suit, but I was curious to the last time that suit was washed," said Karen Giles Kingsbury, owner of Creative Design and More, one of the panelists. Make sure your clothes are clean and pressed, you've showered, your teeth are brushed, and your hair is combed and well kept. Hygiene can be one of the first things to ruin that first impression.
- Bringing kids to the interview – While employers understand you have a life outside of work, the time to show it off is not the interview. Melissa O'Neill of Guaranty Bank had an interviewee who brought her kids along and left them to wait in the waiting room. Not ideal!
- Arrogance/Talking money – "Am I going to make $100,000 in the first year?" Probably not the best question to ask at an interview. The first interview is your chance to speak to the employer about what you can do for the company, not what the company can do for you. Be confident, yet not arrogant.
- Crying during the interview – Andrew Pearce, recruiter from Aerotek, said he had someone start crying during an interview. This makes an all-around uncomfortable situation, and you don't want to make your interviewer uncomfortable.
- Children screaming during phone interview – Be sure to go somewhere quiet for your phone interview where you're not going to be distracted, and the interviewer is not going to be wondering what mayhem is happening at your home.
"You will hear many different opinions on various aspects of the job search," notes Nicole Etter, Career Development instructor. "It's good to hear different viewpoints on resumes and interviewing because you will be exposed to many different types of employers with different preferences during your job search."
For additional information on job search techniques, visit Melissa or Nicole in the Career Services department. They can help you with anything from creating a resume, to fine-tuning the details on any of your career documents. They can help prepare you for an interview through mock interviews, professional dress, and interview tips. If you are currently seeking a position, they can send you job leads related to your field.
Wherever you are in your job search, MSB is here to assist you. And remember, it's never too early to get a jump start on your career, whether through an internship, part-time job, or just meeting with Career Services staff to start preparing for your next steps after graduation.

Discussion in 'Colorado Football Message Board' started by Sexton Hardcastle, May 3, 2008.
Thanks for the injury report on Brian Calhoun. I watched the video on the right and actually fell asleep twice during the opening NFL promo (so many hats!) but woke up in time to wonder if Kevin Smith has lice. What's going on with his noggin? Then I heard Jordon's interview and was struck, once again, how well he represents our university. Go Buffs!
BTW, Wheatley's tearing it up in the Pats camp. Devree signs with the Patsies as well. Looks like we have a pipeline going.
Can I get a T-shirt of your avatar, and if so, where?
quoting myself again.
I found it.
It'd be nice to get a cu logo on that though. Anyone, anyone?
send ruffbuff a pm and ask him if he can do it...the guy has talent...
Nice interview. He does represent and is going to be a hero for Detroit. They are gonna love his attitude and work ethic on the field.
Here's an interview with Dizon sometime before the Draft. It's going to be weird not seeing #44 all over the field next year.

Time to make Moves?? (Post trade proposals & rumors here)

I think we have a lot of young prospects but it's impossible to think that all of them will make the NHL. There will be some Kyle Beach or Justin Mapletoft types that simply won't be good enough. But I'm afraid that none will be impact players, enough to make the team better.
Nino Niederreiter might not be a 30 goal guy. What if he takes a Taylor Pyatt path? Will Ryan Strome be like Kyle Wellwood?
Brock Nelson could be Ryan Malone or JVR or Couturier or Joe Colborne.
Isles fans (especially) run the danger of assuming these young players will reach their max upside and contribute at a level where we WANT them to. But sometimes, young small defensemen (like Hickey) don't become Rafalski, they remain more like Nick Leddy or Brett Lebda or Bruno Gervais.
Ty Wishart and Griffin Reinhart and Chris Pronger and Erik Johnson share a lot of similarities and at one time, showed promise.
We don't know what we have, we only know what we MIGHT have.
Tavares is the ONLY Isles prospect since Lafontaine that came in and delivered as expected, and not even right away, it took 3 years.
If we want Yandle, the price might be something like Nino, deHaan and a #1 pick. Dreger believes the price for Kessel is about the same.
Would the Isles deal Strome, Okposo and a #1 pick for Kessel? Cuz that might get it done. But I'd imagine Isles fans would freak out at that price becaues Strome could be the #2 Centre we need and the #1 pick might be the next Jeff Skinner.
The Isles CANNOT trade and get better unless they are taking on salary. Salary/Cap Space is the ONE ASSET the Isles have that has market value, and only to a few teams that are trying to win, hence, spending close to the cap. But that's not something Wang/Snow have shown any interest in leveraging, as evidenced by the Thomas move.
So we stick to the draft, internal development, prayer and voodoo combined. And hope we don't break Tavares, Hamonic, MacDonald along the way.

I see the Isles and Edm as good trade partners. Just wondering. While we're at it, Paajarvi too.
I've seen almost all the Oilers games this year. Whitney's fallen into a #3-4 dman. Justin Schultz has outplayed him by a wide margin, getting more minutes, more PP time. Whitney's terrible defensively (I think he's paired with Smid) but hardly what a $4MM dman should be. He's like Streit, good offensively, not great defensively, shows flashes. Striet's a better player IMO. Whitney's a UFA at the end of the year. I believe he'll be dealt if the Oilers are out of the playoffs, but I have a feeling they'll make it (or be close to it)
On Paajarvi, his upside is what David Ullstrom is now. He's a terrible player, 8-9 minutes per night, skates hard, kinda lost on the ice. Even Matt Martin is a better player if you remove his physical play, toughness and fighting. Paajarvi seems lost offensively.
If he were drafted in the 4th-5th round, it wouldn't be such a failure, but given he was top ten, people expect more (see Josh Bailey, who it TEN TIMES the player Paajarvi is).
Expectations based on draft position or salary - that's what ruins things at times.
btw, we should have signed Redden. He looks really good in STL!

Should You Diversify Your Stock Footage Portfolio? March 7, 2016
I believe the stock footage industry as we all have come to know and love it is changing. As I approach one decade of shooting and submitting stock footage, I've seen quite a bit of change already. But now, agencies appear to be unifying prices, re-branding their image, juggling CEOs, and even offering subscription plans to customers. While this appears to be great for the consumer, it is not necessarily beneficial to the stock footage contributor.

The objective of this study was to quantify the reduction of friction forces by obstetric gels aimed to facilitate human childbirth. Lubricants, two obstetric gels with different viscosities and distilled water, were applied to a porcine model under mechanical conditions comparable to human childbirth. In tests with higher movement speeds of the skin relative to the birth canal, both obstetric gels significantly reduced dynamic friction forces by 30–40% in comparison to distilled water. At the lowest movement speed, only the more viscous gel reduced dynamic friction force significantly. In tests modifying the dwell time before a movement was initiated, static friction forces of trials with highly viscous gel were generally lower than those with distilled water. The performed biomechanical tests support the recommendation of using obstetric gels during human childbirth. Using the presented test apparatus may reduce the amount of clinical testing required to optimize gel formulation.

Enrolling in natural science courses at Shimer could help prepare you for a medical career
Natural sciences classes are rooted in the description, prediction, and understanding of natural phenomena. Studies of natural sciences dig deep so that students are able to understand the many branches of natural sciences which include chemistry, astronomy, earth sciences, physics, and biology. Many of these branches can help form a strong foundation for the future study of medicine.
If you're looking at an eventual career in medicine, but are drawn to smaller liberal arts colleges like Shimer, your enrollment in natural sciences courses could be beneficial. Shimer Alumni such as Dr. Sydney Spiesel (clinical faculty member at the Yale University School of Medicine) and Dr. Sarah Hackett Stevenson (first female member of the American Medical Association) have gone on to have fantastic medical careers after completing an undergraduate degree at Shimer.
Read on to discover how the skills developed through a great books education could prove beneficial to a career in the medical field.
Natural Sciences Courses Explore Foundational Texts in Chemistry, Evolution, and More
Natural sciences studies at Shimer College include exploratory courses in everything from optics to animal behavior and beyond—providing an excellent foundation for future studies in medicine and the sciences. By studying primary texts, students develop a firm understanding of the basics of chemistry through readings such as Aristotle's Physics and Antoine Lavoisier's Elements of Chemistry. Natural science studies also include biology, where students delve into topics such as evolution, genetics, and animal behavior through such landmark texts as Gregor Mendel's "Experiments in Plant Hybridization" and Charles Darwin's Origin of Species.
Whether you are interested in potentially becoming a physician, psychiatrist, or nurse, knowing the early foundations of biology, chemistry, and other fields in the natural sciences will give you a solid foundation on which to further your education at medical school and beyond.
Shimer College offers natural history classes that cover evolution and genetics
Natural Sciences Courses at a Liberal Arts College Teach Critical Thinking
The life of a medical professional consists of making thorough and decisive decisions based off symptoms and evidence. These skills are not learned overnight, but are developed over the course of a complete education.

Stevens family readies for next big challenge
When the Boston Celtics introduced new head coach Brad Stevens at news conference July 5 at the NBA basketball team's training facility in Waltham, Massachusetts, the president of basketball operations Danny Ainge thanked Steven's wife, Tracy, and recognized her influence.
"The biggest supporter we had in this was Tracy. Thanks to Tracy for giving him the extra nudge to give this a try," Ainge said. "She is also his agent and attorney, so she wasn't that easy to deal with."
She helped Brad pen a six-year, $22 million deal.
"I am the only coach in the country who pays 100 percent to his agent, that's how that goes and how it's always gone," Brad said.
Stevens twice led the Butler Bulldogs to the NCAA title game. He replaces Doc Rivers, who was traded to the Los Angeles Clippers. At the family's summer lake spot, Lake Wawasee in Syracuse, Tracy talked with WTHR exclusively about the deal, her role and her fears.
"Everything about Boston scares me, but you know, it's just one of those things you just have to jump in feet first and say 'I am going to try'," Tracy said.
She says representing Brad is easy.
"I am really only involved from a very specific legal review part of the contract and I worked with the general counsel over at the Celtics to work out those specifics, but it's an easy process," she said. "Boston called Brad, so lots of time an agent is the one who is reaching out looking for someone for those jobs, the phone call came directly to Brad.
"It also involves one less person, which is not a bad thing in this day and age. I think a lot of people were surprised by this news, but by it just being Brad and I we were able to keep it pretty quiet. We kept quiet with the idea that if he decides not to go, you don't want his players or especially recruits knowing that he was even thinking about it."
Tracy says it took ten days to two weeks to make a final decision.
"His initial reaction after thinking about it for a couple of days was, 'No, I am not going to do it,' and I did push back at little bit and said, 'I really think, just spend another day thinking about it, give it just a little bit more thought,' and he did and ultimately that's when he gave them the go ahead to come in and meet," she said.
The face-to-face meeting was in the morning July 3.
"We weren't 100 percent sure, we wanted to make sure the owners were on board," Tracy said.
She wore a Butler shirt to the meeting around the dining room table at her mother-in-law's Zionsville home. It was the last day of four weeks of the basketball camp the couple runs at Hinkle Fieldhouse.
"We had 160 seventh and eighth graders at Butler that day for the last day and construction at Hinkle cut the water," Tracy said.
She had to leave the talks early to make sure the toilets were running. She says the good humor about the dilemma made it a comfortable conversation. Shortly after 5:30 that night, it was official. Butler Athletic Director Barry Collier sent a press release announcing that Stevens was leaving.
"Brad is not one to cry, but he cried three times that day. He cried when he told Barry. He cried as he wrote his statement for the press release and he cried when he told his team. It was an incredibly emotional, difficult day. I think of five times in my whole life when I've seen him cry and three of them were on that day. It was a hard decision," Tracy said.
It's not the first time Tracy and Brad took a risk and changed direction. In 2000, he left his job at Eli Lilly and Company, just a year after he graduated, to volunteer under then-Butler head coach Thad Matta.
"He's a good saver and so he had saved a good amount of money that year at Lilly. He said, 'I am going to try because I can, because I'm 23, we were not married yet we don't have kids, let's try.'" And I said, 'Okay, let's do it' because I knew...it was something he had to try, if he didn't, he'd regret it for his whole life and that was very clear," Tracy said.
Brad didn't go long without a paycheck. Soon, he was offered a low-paying administrative position as coordinator of basketball operations. The next year, Matta left and new head coach Todd Lickliter promoted Stevens to a full-time assistant coach. Seven years later, Stevens was named Butler head coach. When he resigned July 3, he had been with Butler for 13 years.
"I think maybe Butler was a dream job and this (Celtics head coach) is like the double bonus dream job. I don't know how else to describe it, its just more than he ever expected," Tracy said.
Brad and Tracy have been together since their sophomore year at DePauw University. They are now 36 and will celebrate their ten-year wedding anniversary this summer with their two children Brady and Kinsley, ages 7 and 4.
Tracy left her job practicing contract and labor law with Bingham McHale LLP after Kinsley's birth. Tracy says her job now is to run the household so Brad can focus on coaching.
"He's brilliant. He's incredibly brilliant. He's a fantastic basketball coach, but he is not a good housekeeper and he is not a handyman," Tracy said.
When Brad is working, Tracy is watching and she has learned to read his sideline show.
"I know when he is animated, it's because it's what he thinks the players need. When he takes the jacket off, I'm like 'Oh, jacket came off, this is not a good sign'," she said.
After a loss, Tracy says Brad is "miserable, miserable." In fact, she says his competitive nature is what too many people underestimate.
"Brad is miserable if I beat him in 'Words with Friends' I mean, after a loss, he's miserable," Tracy said.
Tracy says the intense 82-game NBA season will mean Brad will have to recover more quickly.
Suggested Links
"The losses hurt more than he enjoys the wins and so that will be interesting to see how that goes in the NBA," Tracy said.
She plans to attend home games, but of the 41 away games, only the matchups in Cleveland and Indianapolis are on her wish list. She is looking forward to a longer offseason in the summer. It is when they plan to regroup at what she calls "Brad's Happy Place" - Lake Wawasee.
"This is where we will come. When he gets up in the morning and has his coffee on the pier, he just looks 100 percent at peace. Everyone said, 'Are you going to sell this place?' and we are not. We are going to keep our house up at the lake and it's going to be our connection to Indiana," Tracy said. "It's hard because it is a 'goodbye, we will see you in a couple months.' But somehow going to the NBA makes it a little bit easier, because it's so different, because we can still be Butler fans. He loves Butler so much that he couldn't leave it for another school."

16:00 19th December 2015
By David Threlfall-Sykes
A hugely disappointing first half display effectively settled this game at Griffin Park as Brentford notched three goals without reply.
A goal within 31 second half seconds from Joe Lolley gave the 1,004 travelling fans feint hope of a dramatic comeback, but a questionable penalty converted by Alan Judge put paid to that.
The Terriers were the better side in the second half, but it meant nothing after an opening 45 devoid of the qualities that David Wagner's Town side has become known for in the early stages of the Head Coach's tenure.
Against a side known for its ability on the ball, the Terriers needed to get their foot on the ball and exert some control on the game as David Wagner's side has during his tenure. However, it was the Bees who started the game with better quality on the ball and faster to close down without it.
That was aided by a first goal for the home side with the first genuine attack of the game inside five minutes. A ball into Town's right channel evaded the stretching Hudson and fell for striker Lasse Vibe, who turned back and squared the ball across the face of the penalty area. Brentford smartly worked the ball into the area for Sergi Canos and the attacker neatly side-stepped the final challenge before slotting the ball inside the far post from 15 yards out, despite the fact Jed Steer got a hand to his low effort.
Brentford continued to make all the running after the opener and Steer had to make a smart low save to his left after the lively Vibe latched onto a pass forward from Dean and turned goalwards, but the Bees soon doubled the advantage in any case. A simple chip over the back four found the Danish striker break Town's lazy offside calls and he raced completely clear before smashing a shot between the goalkeeper and the near post in the 21st minute.
With the passing out from the back laboured, Town's only route forward was on the break. On a few occasions Martin Cranie – playing in midfield in the absence of Dean Whitehead, Emyr Huws, Philip Billing and now Jonathan Hogg through injury – found Ishmael Miller with quick passes to feet, but former Oldham centre back James Tarkowski got the better of the big striker.
The third goal came just after the half hour after Hudson was booked for handball by the right touchline. Alan Judge – the league's leading assist maker – stepped up and whipped a free kick into the area that evaded everyone at the near post and went straight past Steer's left into the net. The delivery was decent, but should have been cut out at the near post by one of several players.
Town only started passing the ball as Wagner's plan dictates late in the half, with Jamie Paterson having to drop deeper and deeper to get on the ball, but the Terriers still failed to test home goalkeeper David Button at all in the opening 45 minutes as passes went astray in the attacking third.
Wagner rang the changes during the interval, with Nahki Wells replacing Miller and Kyle Dempsey on for Holmes. The latter change saw Dempsey slot in as the number 10, with Paterson dropping back to partner Cranie.
It paid dividends within 31 seconds, when Town got a goal. Lolley drove at the defence in typical fashion and slipped a clever pass to Wells. He skipped one challenge in the area before sending the ball back across goal, where Lolley stepped onto the ball and smashed it into the roof of the net for his sixth Town goal.
Town camped in the Bees half for the next 10 minutes, forcing corners and errors from the home side, but the pressure was relieved in the 54th when referee Philip Gibbs awarded the hosts a penalty. Brentford broke from a Town corner and Judge ran at Chilwell, who was adjudged to barge over the attacker in the box. Up stepped Judge to smash past Steer for his second of the game.
The unlikely figure of Joel Lynch had a great chance to pull another back in the 58th minute after he was picked out by Cranie in the area following a free kick, but he pulled his firm volley just wide from around 15 yards out.
Town continued to do well after the goal, with Wells clipping a post after a superb run that saw him turn past Tarkowski, but Brentford also had chances on the break; right back Collin guilty of a bad miss with the entire goal to aim at 15 yards out. In truth, it came too late after the first half display.
Wells' second half performance was a real highlight; on two separate occasions he showed excellent feet to skip past challenges into the area, only to roll shots agonisingly wide with his left foot.
The final meaningful action of the game was a positive one too, as Kyle Dempsey - who played well after being introduced at the interval - got his first Town goal, volleying home from close range after Paterson's stinging shot was palmed out by the 'keeper
Town's team (4-2-3-1):
Jed Steer; Ben Chilwell, Joel Lynch, Mark Hudson (c), Tommy Smith; Duane Holmes (Kyle Dempsey, 46), Martin Cranie; Mustapha Carayol (Sean Scannell, 61), Jamie Paterson, Joe Lolley; Ishmael Miller (Nahki Wells, 46)
Unused subs:

Causing problems
"Oh come on, you've got to show me a little respect after dragging me off my planet!" Jimalu shouts. The older folks of my people turn their attention to our small group. Jimalu continues to make a scene. "Why don't you just leave us alone?! We don't deserve being treated like creatures! Doing this won't help you solve anything! All you will prove is that we have powers, which you already know! So you punks better let us go!"
"Jimalu, I think that's enough," Aspen says delicately.
"There's plenty more I can say. If they don't like me, then they can kiss my black a-"
"Stop it right there, Jimalu!" Aspen says it in a way that's meant to scare Jimalu, but has no effect.
"Why are you always telling everyone what to do, Aspen?" Cort asks.
"Why do you always have to question me?"
"Guys, why do you always have to fight?" Merrick asks quietly.
"Hold up, hold up. Aspen, tell me why I shouldn't put these people under the spotlight?" Jimalu addresses her.
"They have complete control over us. You don't know what they're capable of. So we need to figure this out through a calm conversation."
"The hell with calm! We need to kick some major butt!" Cort shouts. Now everyone's attention is on the scene my friends have caused. All the men and women studying us have no change in their expressions. They watch with eager eyes.
"Who put you in charge, boy?!" I turn and see that Austin was the commander of that question. Austin is, well, um, you could say he's a donkey. He has bullied me for years and has more recently developed a liking of bullying all of my friends as well. He believes he's "all that," because he has strength as his power. He is tall and muscular, the biggest kid out of all of the others gifted with strength. He has brown curly hair, but you can't tell his hair is curly unless he grows it out longer.
"Whoa, I never said I was in charge, bud," Cort says. To everyone else they might believe Cort is afraid of Austin, but he is far from it. Cort knows every little secret of Austin's and he knows he can destroy Austin if he wanted to.
"Good, because we need a real man in charge."
"And maybe that man should be an adult, son," Austin's dad says while he steps forward so the crowd that has formed around us can see him. "Okay, we all know we can't really do anything because of these people watching us day and night. So all we can do is do what they want. Maybe if they can't seem to get the results they want then we'll get out more quickly but for now, do as they say and eventually we should be free."

Happy memories
As I saw her come closer, I felt a calming sensation flood my confused senses. For the first time since I could remember, I felt a calming drug of relaxation flow through my mind and the two who had come to my rescue were as angels to me. As they began to argue I felt myself float peacefully to another time.
There I was, my sixteenth birthday. It must have been the happiest point of my life. An endless crush had recently blossomed into something tangible and the boy, no, man, that I had waited for was here to take me on a surpirse adventure. I was not used to attention and had no idea what to expect- the naivete in which I was wrapped made certain that I knew nothing of the world, of men, of love, or even of the possibilities that lay beyond my familiar little town. He was not from here and I had made a habit of following him after school in the past 3 months since he came. Two weeks after this started, he stopped one day, turned around, and came to my side. Taking my arm, he began asking questions about our town, about school, about me. Every day we spoke of the places he had been to with his family, the interesting and important people he had met, and the beauty and science he saw in everything around us.
There was no one at home to care about me, no one to miss me, and this person became my entire life in the two and a half months we spent together. And today was my birthday. I had saved everything I made working as a night maid in the local motel and bought a yellow summer dress. Making every detail perfect, I was ready an hour early and sat in the nearby park to enjoy and elongate the day that I knew would be the best in my life.
And he came! There he was, so nearby that I already sensed the way he smelled. Watching him walk from across the quiet street, I admired the short and confident stature, wondering if today might result in a first kiss. His smile was oddly.... resigned. Yes, he seemed.... distracted, maybe even distressed!
Did he know then? Did he know that within an hour's time he would leave me and never be seen again? Did he know in those few moments of my innocent excitement that I would lose the one beautiful thing I looked to before the whole world fell down on our heads? And that as we took a stroll, hand in hand, he would be taken from me; his warmth wrenched away to leave me screaming and running after that mysterious black car? Surely there was nothing like that in his smile.

Washington, D.C. - On September 20, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) will host, for the fourth straight year, its national Countering Terrorism Symposium. The symposium is open to defense, intelligence, security, and law enforcement professionals including military officers and state or local officials and will review, explore, and discuss the very latest security challenges and solutions involving homeland security.
"OPM has been intensely focused on issues related to terrorism, such as the security of the federal work force, and we are pleased to again offer this broadly focused symposium and further assist policy makers in the development of anti-terrorism measures," stated OPM Director Kay Coles James. "It is crucial to the security of the homeland that anti-terrorism and homeland security policy makers have as much support as possible as they continue crafting new ways to mitigate the risk of another terrorist attack."
The speakers at this year's symposium, to be held in San Diego, California, with the assistance of the First Marine Expeditionary Force, will include Director James and representatives from the Rand Corporation, Central Intelligence Agency, Transportation Security Administration, Department of State, and branches of the United States Army, Navy, and Marines. Topics to be discussed include understanding the threat of terrorism, protecting public health, and nuclear, chemical, and biological security.
The symposium will bring together practitioners and policy makers responsible for the safety and security of the United States. Guest presenters and expert facilitators will work with seminar attendees to generate innovative approaches to security, analyze options, and discuss policy initiatives for homeland security.
Last year, 155 representatives from 61 agencies were in attendance. This year, to date, 150 agency representatives from 54 agencies are scheduled to attend, and OPM still is accepting enrollments. For more information, agencies can go to www.leadership.opm.gov.
"Preventing terrorism in the homeland is the primary objective of the experts who will gather in San Diego, and it is OPM's objective to provide as much assistance as possible," stated James. "The federal government has a significant role to play in ensuring the safety of our nation's citizens, and OPM is proud to be one of the federal agencies helping accomplish this."
The Countering Terrorism Symposium is the latest in OPM's efforts to assist in the safety and security of the nation and its federal work force. OPM also has hosted seven governmentwide emergency preparedness training sessions and has trained 605 emergency professionals from 142 federal agencies and sub-agencies.
Our mission is to Recruit, Retain and Honor a World-Class Workforce to Serve the American People. OPM supports U.S. agencies with personnel services and policy leadership including staffing tools, guidance on labor-management relations and programs to improve work force performance.

"Like it a lot!!!"
I love it!!
His voice!!
I really like Mr. Steve Martin's work!!! I am waiting for his next book!!!!
"can you talk without applying signs of "e"?"
I haven't read The Pleasrure of my Company in print, but I can't imagine a better way to "read" this book.
I felt like I was in Steve Martin's head, listening to him writing this tale.
You can't help but like and relate to the main character on some level. I often found strangers on the street giving me odd looks while I was listening to this book -- as I laughed out loud or at the very least, had a stupid grin on my face.
"If Steve Martin was Crazy(ier)"
Martin captures the thoughts and motivation of one with so many fractures that rings with truth, though proliferated with lies. Like An Object of Beauty, the book is the narrative of journey. A journey that leads no where, but where characters have time to grow, as does your affection towards them.
Steve Marin: You either love him or hate him, and I cherish him as a genius.
"Sorry, Steve, not a pleasure"
I'm fond of Steve Martin -- his dry, absurd sense of humor connects most of the time for me. But this one just didn't work. I'm not sure why. Sorry, Steve. I wanted to like it, but just couldn't find it this time.
"Epected better from Steve Martin"
I have not finished listening to the entire book, but so far, I am at a loss at what this book is about.
"ok but not great"
this could have been really funny but i think Martin needed to rewrite the story from a different point of view. the first person perspective doesn't quite work like he thinks it does. and I felt like he had just finished reading The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime ( an incredible book I highly recommend, along with Born on a Blue Day), or had watched Rainman; and something about this seemed a little exploitative and at times in poor taste
Great Story...Love that it was read by Steve Martin. Can't wait for the movie.
"A Wonderful tale of idiosyncrasies"
I bought this book because I enjoyed Steve's Born Standing Up so much. This book is obviously different because it's a work of fiction vs. a biographical tale but his style of writing is the same and it's just as good.
I was literally laughing out loud at times and I can't wait to "read" another one of Steve Martin's tales. Highly recommended!
"The Pleasure of My Company"
Hilarious!!! I liked "Shopgirl", but I loved "The Pleasure of My Company". Steve Martin is a genious.

Honda manufactured the Valkyrie motorcycle from 1997 to 2003. That means even the newer models are beginning to show their age and will require maintenance. One common piece of body work that needs to be done is to strip and repaint the fuel tank. Or maybe you accidentally left gas in the tank while the bike was in storage over the winter and the gas has lacquered. In either case, you will need to first remove the fuel tank in order to address the issue.
Things You'll Need
- Philips screwdriver
- Flat screwdriver
- Socket set
- Slip-joint pliers
Empty the gasoline tank. You can drive your Valkyrie until it goes into reserve, or you can siphon it out with a hose.
Use your key to unlock the seat, then remove it from the bike.
Turn the fuel valve off.
Slide a Philips screwdriver into the center hold of the fuel valve and loosen the screw inside until you can pivot the fuel valve out of the way.
Pivot the fuel valve out of the way.
Unscrew the bolt on the bottom front of the fuel tank. You will need an 8-mm socket with an extension.
Remove the bolt on the bottom rear of the fuel tank. This will require a 12-mm socket. If it sticks, use a flat screwdriver to pry up the rubber block beneath the bolt.
Lift the back of the fuel tank. The fuel valve can catch on the clutch line when you lift it, so be careful to move it out of the way when you lift the tank.
Pull off the fuel vent hose at the back of the tank. The fuel tank should still be raised at this point. It may be necessary to force the clamp on the hose down with a pair of slip-joint pliers.
Lower the tank back into place.
Go to the right side of your Valkyrie and remove the two hoses behind the ignition switch. The smaller one will pull off without removing the clamps. The larger of the two you will need to remove the clamp with slip-joint pliers before the hose will slide off.
Lift the tank off of your bike, again being careful not to catch the fuel valve on the clutch line.

Chapter 1Mature
I shut the door as quietly as I could, but when I turned around my mother was standing in front of me, arms crossed.
"What time do you call this, Abigail Rose?" She asked me, raising her eyebrows. I smiled sheepishly.
"Sorry, Ma. I fell asleep." I told her. She looked unimpressed, as well as an older version of me. We shared many of the same features, as well as the same hair colour, but my eyes were emerald green like my father's.
"Oh, Lucy! Leave her be, she's only a little late!" I heard my father call from the kitchen. Ma motioned for me to go ahead of her, and so I went to the kitchen, where my father was sitting at the dining table, legs stretched out in front of him. He grinned at me and his eyes sparkled. "How are my two best girls?"
"Neither of us are girls, Charles." Ma said, with an amused tone to her voice. I sat beside him.
"I had a lovely day, Pa. I stayed in the violet field all day. I read a little, but ended up falling asleep, so I was late. I'm sorry."
"Don't worry about it, love." He told me as Ma laid our supper on the table. Pa talked about how the animals were, and after dinner I collected water from the pump outside as Pa read the newspaper and Ma darned his socks. I washed the dishes with some of it, and took the rest up to my room to wash. It was an average evening in my family.
We were very lucky that we had such a large house; we had the master bedroom for my parents and my bedroom, as well as a guest bedroom. My best friend, Maggie, had to sleep in the same room as her sister and her sister's husband! But she often stayed with us.
I read by candlelight, even though I knew that it was bad for my eyes, as the house was old and didn't have any electricity yet, much to my mother's annoyance. When I grew too tired to see properly, I went to bed. That was my life.

Tax Resolution Expert Barry G. Fowler, EA Explains Some 2013 Tax Changes
Tax resolution expert Barry Fowler recently discussed several changes that may be coming your way starting in 2013
"We have had very few tax laws passed during the past year. Many tax provisions you may have used in 2011, expired in 2012 and won't be available for you this time. Some of the provisions we are all used to - tuition deduction, education deduction and sales tax deduction, just to name a few - are now gone," remarked Mr. Fowler.
Here are some things to consider while planning your taxes going forward:
· Many tax laws are expiring in 2012 and will not be available in 2013 under the current law: Child tax Credit will go down from $1,000 per qualifying child to only $500. Gift and estate taxes are going up for you and the extra Earned income tax credit for a 3rd child is completely gone
· If Congress allows the Bush tax cuts to expire, ordinary income tax rates will increase for most individual taxpayers beginning in 2013.
o While the actual tax brackets are not set for 2013, the rate of inflation that impacts the income levels for each tax rate is anticipated to go up 2.5%. Please recall that if Congress does not act, the 10% income tax bracket becomes 15% and the top income tax bracket moves from 35% to 39.6%.
· If you qualify for either the American Opportunity or Lifetime Learning education credits, check to see how much you will have paid in qualified tuition and related expenses in 2012. If it is not the maximum allowed for computing the credits, you can prepay 2013 tuition as long as it is for an academic period beginning in the first three months of 2013. That will allow you to increase the credit for 2012.
Because of his expertise and contributions to his profession, Barry Fowler will be featured as one of America's PremierExperts®

Welcome to Allbuffs! I hope you decide to stick around. :thumbsup:
Welcome. I believe I'm familiar with your work over on Scout.
welcome.... How's everthing in OKC these days??
Glad to see a newb. Now fetch me an eggs benedict and a bloody mary.
its alright here in OKC. And uh, I don't fetch.
Ummm...this is kinda awkward, like that scene in Dazed and Confused when the incoming freshman stood up to Parker Posey. "Good for you...I hate that ****!"
"Lick me! All of you!"
Beer me n00b!
welcome. now. sammich! chop chop!
Also: the neg rep function was invented for kNU fans. feel free to use it whenever you feel like it. May the rep I have given you smite many a kNU fan :smile2:
hahaha, all so demanding. Well, I am new to this site but, not to the scene. We all can have a beer and what not. But, like I said I don't fetch.
Love the pic of Dizon Snowbuff.
Welcome. (I'm fairly new here myself.)
I've been known to lurk on scout === didn't you have some good news to share with the rest of the class this week? Really good newzs? :wink2:
Admittedly, asking a n00b to fetch is a bit much.
So go ahead, shake on over and beer me!:lol:
I most certainly did. We are all doing well and home now. Thanks man. :thumbsup:
FIFY :smile2:
AJ, why don't you run over and grab me a beer on the n00b's behalf?? :thumbsup:
Point taken. If cuTaekwondo is a threat due to his martial arts skilz, one can only imagine as to what FCharbanks is good at.
Welcome! :cheers:
Welcome to the site!
Welcome to Allbuffs, you found a good one here. :thumbsup:
Welcome! But, please, NEVER START A THREAD WITH "HEY GUYS" AGAIN! :lol:
Hey Guys, Gals, confused, undefined and those who are undergoing self-tranformation journeys?
Are you a female? If so my apologies for having offended you. I just thought "hey GUYS" was universal. My bad
DBT is the resident 'angry old guy'. Just nod your head and don't make eye contact. :lol:
No it just brings back rough memories from when he accidentally walked into a T-room.
Welcome :thumbsup:
pssst. Dude... Never show weakness around here. It's blood to sharks.
lol, no fear here bro. There was a hint of sarcasm in that. I am sure that I will say a few things on here that someone doesn't like. :lalala:
Welcome. Good to know there's a couple of good guys down here in the land of circling winds.

Course Overview
Project Management Institute (PMI) has reviewed and approved GLOMACS as a Global Provider of project management training. This is a PMI Approved/Registered programme and hence attendance to this programme will enable those credentialed with PMI to receive applicable PDUs upon updating their status with PMI.
This course is unique in the market as it helps the participants to get ready for the PMP Exam; not to mention the business application portion that ensure the pragmatic implementation of the project management methodology. It will correlate the exam questions with a practical workshop to cover the daily business activities.
This course is intended for candidates undertaking the Project Management Institute (PMI)® Project Management Professional (PMP)® examination. The designation title PMP® is an internationally accepted recognition of project management knowledge and professionalism of the successful candidate. In ever increasing numbers, organizations are turning to project management to help them gain competitive advantage.
It will emphasize awareness of project risk management to minimize project cost/schedule overruns & improve project execution.
Project management is all about the management of risks; the ability to seize opportunities, minimize threats and to optimize results. However, risk management is too often treated as a reactive process, or worse, not done at all.
Highlights of the course are:
- The course is developed and facilitated by a professional subject expert with extensive industrial experience and academic background.
- Course emphasis is on providing practical skills in rationalizing proper managerial actions, as in the case of typical PMP® examination multiple-choice questions.
- Get to interact with other delegates and build a learning network for industrial experience and for the PMP® examination
- Understanding the behavioural and ethical aspects of professional project managers to exercise proper judgement in the decision-making process.
- Examine both the threats and opportunities facing your projects from both a top-down and bottom-up perspective using a proven six-step risk management process.
- Evaluate and respond to risk at the project as well as the task levels.
- Anticipate possible causes of cost and schedule overruns, together with poor quality of work. By identifying the warning signs to these as early as possible in the project timely corrective action can be taken to minimize or mitigate the impact.
Discussions of case studies and exercises emphasizing the learning across the five process groups and the professional responsibility domain.
The seminar is split into two modules:
MODULE I - The Project Management Professional (PMP)® Examination Preparatory Course
MODULE II - Project Risk Management & Compliance
Each module is structured and can be taken as a stand-alone course; however, delegates will maximise their benefits by taking Module 1 and 2 back-to-back as a two-week seminar.
The course helps in
- Building confidence to immediately take the PMP® examination upon the conclusion of the course.
- Providing tips to delegates to answer difficult multiple-choice questions.
- Creating a study technique and setting up a network of learners or group study.
- Practising answering questions like in the real examination during the classes and outside classes.
- Rationalizing answers to examination questions.
- Get an overview of the Risk Management Process
- Learn to identify risks that affect project quality, time & schedule, cost and scope
- Apply useful techniques to identify, analyze, mitigate and monitor risks in the project life cycle
- Learn how to create an effective risk monitoring plan and risk management strategies.
- Use a practical, six-step process to manage project risk
- Develop a risk budget based on expected monetary value (EMV)
Training Methodology
The Facilitator through presentations will give the participants help and guidance during the pre-examination process and the sessions are challenging and practical through the use of simulated test questions and answers where learning comes with a test of 15 key and very challenging questions upon the completion of each module.
The training methodology will incorporate as well both theory and skill training components, utilizing both traditional lectures, as well as hands-on exercises, group discussions and case studies.
Organizational Impact
Both private and public organizations will greatly benefit from systematic approach to managing project, which will improve the likelihood of on-time and on-budget project completion by focusing on:
