text: "We predict the use of voice biometrics for authentication and transaction verification purposes will accelerate within the banking industry, and other verticals. Voice biometrics will equally become increasingly appealing to insurance companies, government agencies, telcos and retailers, in fact any business where the phone is used as a means to contact their customers," added Carroll.ValidSoft has invested considerable research resources into voice biometrics, as one of the layers within its multi-factor security platform, on the premise that mobile phones will become the device of choice for banking and payments. As part of its research and development (R&D) program, ValidSoft has made strategic partnerships with leading universities in this field. ValidSoft's voice biometric research and commercial credentials have also been endorsed by specialist technology analyst TechNavio in its report, Global Voice Recognition Market 2012 to 2016. Research in 2012 has consistently pointed to how the security industry could use voice biometrics to secure data and banking transactions. It advocates that voice biometrics, used correctly, can fill this gap by accurately identifying that the end user is genuinely who they claim to be. As the mobile payments world develops further, communication by voice is a natural way to enroll, authenticate and validate. If a person is connected, whether by data channel or voice channel, then voice can be solicited – entirely natural in the mobile world. Voice biometrics is also a dynamic biometric, unlike a fingerprint or an iris scan, therefore it has the inherent capability to be configured to be rendered useless in the event that it is stolen. News of ValidSoft's achievement in the NIST Speaker Recognition Evaluation comes shortly after Opus Research, a top independent analyst firm in the voice biometrics industry, recognized the company as an industry leader in its Voice Biometrics Vendor Survey and "IntelliView" 2012.

SO AWFUL: Son of Fugees Rapper Lives in a 'Shoebox'
According to Page Six, the young son of former Fugees rapper and "Ghetto Superstar" Pras is living in a tiny fifth-floor walkup studio apartment, while Pras enjoys taking a private jet to the World Cup, dropping $50,000 a month for luxury apartments on both coasts, according to in-court testimony from the child's mother Thursday.

The Grammy winner, whose real name is Pras Michel, is the father of 4-year-old Landon. "This isn't about [Pras]," ex-girlfriend Angela Severiano said, outside the courtroom. "It's about my son who lives in a shoebox."

"My cats love these. They are quick and simple to make. For anyone unfamiliar with the yarn that is suggested for the pattern, it is a fingering weight, 4 ply yarn that is 100 percent cotton. I used worsted weight and a 3.5mm hook for mine, so I wouldnt have to worry about the cats pulling the stuffing out through any holes."

"What does (K1. Inc 1 st in next st.) mean? I think st means stitch, but I don't understand how to do what it says. Thank you "
"This is absolutely stunning! I love it. I love vintage China and this is one way to display it. For my own personal taste I would use less pieces in the back, or even paint the background to make it pop more, and use the broken pieces on,y around the border as a type of frame. But that's just me. Alternatively, using less cups and just feature a ew with the broken pieces may set them off better. But all in all this is a great idea and display! Love it!"

Keep luck on your side this year with this fun Single Sided Good Luck Earring. This cute tassel DIY earring can be worn by itself or you can make a pair and wear one in each ear. Be sure to add a cute little good luck charm to the earring to make sure this year is your best year yet! Great for beginners, this DIY earring tutorial is a quick and easy project that makes a great gift for teens and adults alike.
- 1 tassel, made of colorful yarn (or threads) – you can make the tassel yourself (find free tutorials online) or buy a ready-made one
- 1 lucky coin charm (worn traditionally on tribal and folklore outfits and jewelry)
- Small piece of green ribbon
- 3-5 green beads (depending on their size)
- Flat rounded and smooth beach pebble, color: black or dark colored (not colorful), top drilled
- 1 hook (for earrings)
- Some thread (pick a color that matches your yarn) and a needle
- Piece of waxed jewelry making string, 7 inches long, any color that matches your tassel
- Acrylic paints, colors: green, gold
- Jewelry making pliers
- Pencil
- Rigger brush, size: 01
- 1 jump ring
Start by folding the waxed string in half. After folding it, tie a knot that leaves a loop and attach the colorful tassel to the loop. The two free ends of the waxed jewelry string should be hanging loose.
Attach the earring hook, by passing its curled end through the loop you've made with the waxed string. Secure it with the help of your jewelry making pliers.
Now, take the green ribbon piece and tie it around the yarn (the tassel is suspended from) and the waxed jewelry string. To hold the string and yarn together, and secure them in place, make a double knot. Trim the ribbon, if necessary.
When you're finished with the knot and the trimming, use your needle and thread to attach the lucky coin charm on the tassel.
To continue, use your pencil to draw the outline of a four leaf clover on your beach pebble, on both sides.
Take your acrylic paints and brush and paint the clover green with a golden lining. Put it aside for a while, and wait for the paint to dry. Repeat the process on the other side of the pebble.
While waiting for the paint to dry, string the beads on the waxed string, making a knot after every strung bead.
When all your beads are strung, and the paint has dried (on both sides), use your jewelry pliers and the jump ring to attach the painted pebble to the lower end of the beaded waxed string.
- Your Single Sided Lucky Earring is ready to wear.

Bergans Bodo Down Jacket Women's
Norwegian winters are truly testing cold winds blowing off the ocean, wet snow, and frigid temperatures in the interior and since the Bergans Bodo Women's Down Jacket was designed to withstand Scandinavian weather, it will certainly keep you warm strolling the icy avenues of North America. Bergans constructed the Bodo from a wind and water repellent blend of nylon and polyester, so sudden squalls and wintery breezes won't steal your warmth, and filled it with lofty 700 fill down that traps heat close to your body despite its remarkably light weight. All the loft in the world won't warm your exposed head, though, but the Bodo's down filled hood will it can also be removed, as can the faux fur ruff, when the day warms up and a more streamlined look is in order. The high collar provides extra warmth for your neck and chin, soft inner cuffs with thumbholes prevent drafts from sneaking up your sleeves, and the asymmetrical zipper won't irritate your chin or let the Bodo be mistaken for a run of the mill coat.

You can count on one hand the number of good romantic comedies in any given year. Not that people aren't making them -- they just don't do them very well. Which is why Admission is such a treat.
Read Whole Story
As allegories go, Juan Diego Solanas' Upside Down is about as deep as that famous Frank Gorshin Star Trek episode -- we're talking classic Star Trek, mind you.
The Incredible Burt Wonderstone is a movie for 8-year-olds who haven't seen a lot of movies and provide fresh eyes for its tired gags. Anyone older will see every punchline coming long before it arrives.
It's populated with characters who seem to have no interior life -- only a devotion to the pursuit of sensation via the eternal party. And, in his own oblique way, Korine offers commentary about just how empty that world is.
Emperor doesn't reimagine history so much as use it as the jumping-off point for a fictional historical romance set against the backdrop of impending war, when everything seems more vital and in-the-moment. Except for this sometimes plodding film.
James Franco, the Energizer bunny of actors, plays Oscar Diggs, a small-time magician in a second-rate traveling circus first seen doing his show to a small crowd in the black-and-white Kansas of the early 20th Century.
Though Ray Winstone has been a TV star in Great Britain since the mid-1970s, a lot of Americans got their first sighting of the beefy British actor with Gary Oldman's 1997's Nil By Mouth or 2000's Sexy Beast.
A roiling visual extrusion rendered from computer-generated imagery, Jack the Giant Slayer makes you long for the days of Ray Harryhausen.
Chan-wook Park's Stoker is audaciously, in-your-face creepy and exhilarating in a way few films have been since David Lynch's Blue Velvet. Because it's not just the creepiness -- but the way Park gets you involved in his world so that you can't look away.
A Place At the Table, with talking heads ranging from Jeff Bridges to Tom Colicchio, all of them articulate and impassioned, is a film that should make you furious.
There are a number of people whose work I admire involved with Inescapable. So allow me to say some nice things about them before I talk about what is so wrong with this movie.
Alex Karpovsky actually has two films out the same day: Red Flag and Rubberneck. They also happen to be surprising and compelling, in very separate ways.
According to box-office pundits, A Good Day to Die Hard will be the big box-office winner this holiday weekend. If the predictions hold true, this film confirms the conventional wisdom: People want what's familiar, no matter how hackneyed and repetitive.
Shortland's film has an occasionally detached, whispery quality, as the camera focuses on the nature around Lore and her group. These Malick-like moments take us out of the story, for better or worse, depending on your point of view.
Jonathan Levine's Warm Bodies won the weekend box-office race for a couple of reasons. It's a romantic comedy that works, for one thing. For another, it's a smart reworking of Romeo and Juliet.
I lost count of the number of noggins that were perforated by hot lead in Bullet to the Head, but it was more than a dozen. Henchman apparently is a particularly dangerous job description, at least in this movie.
It would be too easy to dismiss Girls Against Boys as a simplistic horror-thriller, but there is much more going on here.
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.
Sheldon Candis' LUV is a rough coming-of-age tale that establishes Common as a rapper who could easily put his music career behind him and concentrate on acting.
Allen Hughes' Broken City has the bones and perhaps even the DNA of a better, darker and more interesting film. It isn't awful, just kind of pale and predictable.
It's taken me a while to get around to it, but I wanted to offer a nod of approval for Walter Salles' On the Road, which came out in limited release at the end of 2012.
I kept wanting to dismiss The Baytown Outlaws and it kept yanking me back into it. Again, I emphasize that it has no interest in being a great film, just an entertaining one with a grindhouse ethos.
You get the feeling that Ruben Fleischer would have been happy to make an homage to the gangster movies of the 1940s (filtered through both a 1970s and a 21st-century perspective) when he was making Gangster Squad.
Quartet is harmless, a mild blend of comedy and sentiment, heavy on the sentiment and, unfortunately, far too light on the comedy.
I wanted to like Promised Land and certainly agree with its politics. So why did it feel like a preaching-to-the-converted letdown?

Maged Zaher on Translating Seven Poets of the Arab Spring in The Tahrir of Poems
Seattle's The Stranger writes about their own Maged Zaher, who has edited an anthology of Egyptian poets called The Tahrir of Poems. The book features seven poets, all of whom participated in the Arab Spring. Great piece. An excerpt, from writer Paul Constant:
…Finally, five years after that first clumsy act of translation over the internet, Zaher has published The Tahrir of Poems, a slender collection of short works. (Tahrir also marks a significant milestone for another Seattle literary treasure: It's the first bound volume from local chapbook publisher Alice Blue Books. Zaher is pleased with the editorial collaboration with Alice Blue publisher Amber Nelson, and he's glad the authors and publishers of the book are "the same generation," with everyone ranging from 25 to 35 years of age.)
Now that he's undertaken a five-year intensive course in translation, what has Zaher learned? Firstly, he says it's important to address each poem completely in one sitting. "There is a moment when you become one with the poem," he explains. It's a "poetic moment when you get the poem deeply," and when that moment happens, you have to translate every single word. "You don't leave anything undone," he warns, or the moment—and maybe the entire translation—will be ruined. Once the first pass at translation is complete, he would let the poem sit for a time before reinvestigating and revising. Finally, he'd collaborate with the poets and incorporate their notes. Zaher has grown to enjoy the process; he has several translation projects in the works right now.
The only connections that bind all seven writers in Tahrir are their age and country of origin; they don't even share a single language. . . .
Read on at The Stranger. And you can purchase the anthology at the aforementioned Alice Blue Books.

NEW YORK (AP) Another Super Bowl, another rock 'n' roll superstar at halftime.
THE HUDDLE BLOG: How did the deal come together?
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will perform at this year's Super Bowl halftime show in Tampa, the NFL and NBC announced Sunday night.
Continuing a run of major talent that has lately included the Rolling Stones, U2, Paul McCartney, Prince and Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the biggest television event in the nation will showcase one of its most beloved rock 'n' roll artists. The Super Bowl will be played Feb. 1 at Raymond James Stadium.
Last year's halftime show was watched by more than 148 million viewers in the U.S., the NFL said in its release. It wasn't always that way: For years, the game's halftime show was made up of local and college marching bands and drill teams.
Chubby Checker in 1988 was the first popular musician to perform at halftime, and Michael Jackson upped the ante in 1993. His sister Janet provided the show's most infamous moment with 2004's "wardrobe malfunction" — and the show has stuck with straight ahead rock acts ever since.

One Way Street
A personal essay for something that I believe in with personal anecdotes that changed me as a person.
I've always accepted the fact that I would never live up to my parents' true expectations with them always comparing me to my much older and much more successful sisters. They would always one-up me in certain areas my parents deemed fit, but I always outdid them in my own areas. To them, I was "not good enough" and this always reflected who I was. I would constantly ask people, "Who or what am I to you?" and they'd almost always reply with, "You're Jenny Chen" and this confused me more.
I discovered I was never myself around people because I always thought, "Just pretend to be Victor Di Salvo, then they'll like you." It always worked because I never knew anyone as eccentric and spontaneous as Victor, but this image started to fade as I began to discover myself.
At first, it was difficult to figure out who I really was because of people telling me who to be. It was when I chose to take a step towards change, to do something different. So, I decided to join colorguard and that resulted in me meeting a person named Christine David who began to shape who I was.
I saw how she freely moved with her friends when performing their show "One Way Street" and saw just how jubilant she was with being herself. Never did I see her persona falter or change as mine constantly did, and she seemed so extremely happy. However, I also saw through her Facebook posts of how her struggles only made her a stronger person and they made her who she was. I would scroll through post after post of optimism until I hit the end of when her posts came to a halt on January 24, 2012.
That was when she passed away. All the masks and personas I've held onto completely crumbled. Despite how little we knew of our existence, I saw parts of myself in her as that crazy-inspiring person, a great performer and most importantly, someone who could freely be themselves.
I knew that I no longer wore the mask of Victor Di Salvo. From then, I believe that as one person leaves this world, they connect roads and streets for others to discover. Christine's passing made me realize that I wanted to continue her optimism and begin being myself. The streets I walk are paved with adversities that no longer drag me down, but made me see who "Jenny Chen" really was.
In colorguard, I am that fierce, confident and passionate performer. In leadership, I am that awkward and silent newbie. To my family, I am the spoiled youngest, quiet and different. However, to my friends, I am, quoted by them, "a girl with her mind and heart in the right place."
I believe in being who you want to be and to not let others put you down, and I believe in pushing past the limit and to wander beyond that "One Way Street" of masks and mimes.

We waddled to the bus and enjoyed the return ride through the pastoral countryside which was magnificent with the long shadows cast by the setting sun.

Well we thought we should do one last blog to finish things up and let everyone know we are safe and sound and back on PEI! After a great week in Santa Cruz we headed back to Canada and our first stop was in my hometown to visit family. It was great to see my parents and my brother and his wife. We chatted a lot on Skype while away but it is always better in person!

So I went over and asked the people working on their barn if we could buy a couple potatoes. They were nice enough to just give them to us free of charge. I got to pick a few that were fresh off the fields and gave them a big thank you. Our next stop was at the PEI Aquafarms were we got 2 lbs of the freshest ...

Exponential convergence of hp quadrature for integral operators with Gevrey kernels

Galerkin discretizations of integral equations in require the evaluation of integrals where S(1),S(2) are d-simplices and g has a singularity at x = y. We assume that g is Gevrey smooth for x y and satisfies bounds for the derivatives which allow algebraic singularities at x = y. This holds for kernel functions commonly occurring in integral equations. We construct a family of quadrature rules using N function evaluations of g which achieves exponential convergence |I – | ≤ C exp(–rNγ) with constants r, γ > 0.

Key words: Numerical integration / hypersingular integrals / integral equations / Gevrey regularity / exponential convergence

Immigration attorneys (sometimes called "green card lawyers") represent people who want to come to the United States, whether it be for schooling, work, or just a visit. Immigration lawyers can also help undocumented immigrants found living in the U.S. without permission. Immigration laws govern who can enter the U.S., how long they can stay, what they can do while they are here, and how they can become American citizens. If you are not a U.S. citizen and want to apply for a green card or other visa, or if you are already in the U.S. and have been threatened with deportation, an immigration lawyer can help you.

Please welcome our new writer, Mendie to your laptops. She will be contributing some TV shows weekly. I have been following her blog, The Spectator for some time now and we think she will make a nice addition to Lost In Reviews.
As I sat on my couch watching the latest episode of Scrubs 2.0 I couldn't help but to think that after 8 years JD should be a little less absorbed in what Dr. Cox thinks about him. I felt as though I was back watching the first couple of years of the show, except this time it made no sense that he was still so desperate for his "mentor's" approval. It was a sad and pathetic throwback to days gone past. It would have been more interesting if JD would have taken Drew under his wing because he himself knew how hard it was going to be to keep on Dr. Cox's good side. Here is a guy that had been through all of this before and yet I was left with the feeling that JD hasn't grown at all. I sure hope he doesn't pass his insecurities onto Sam or the one he and Elliott have on the way. It would be a damn shame if he never manages to grow up.
On the other hand Perry, going full out, put so much pressure on Drew that he caused the guy to have a minor break down in the middle of a code. It may just be me but I am pretty sure that this is not the time you want your doctor breaking down, even if you are "circling the drain." I find it strange that despite all the bullying Perry dished out over the years I never once felt as though he didn't care about his students. That was until now. Oh sure we had the "A-ha" moment in the last 5 minutes, but the one thing I always loved about Scrubs is even though it is a 30 minute comedy it never felt that way. I wish I didn't have to say this but the magic seems to be dwindling. Hopefully they will be able to get it back and soon.
The good news is that the med students seem to be coming along nicely. Lucy is settling into her role as the new voice of Scrubs and frankly she is down right creepy with her horse obsession. Did you see her room? If I were Cole I would have run screaming in terror. But seeing as I am not a guy I probably wouldn't understand why he stayed with that freakshow. Yeah, thank goodness for small favors. I gotta agree with Denise the sound of her voice does start to get annoying after a while. Memo to the writers: JD fantazing is strangly comforting. Lucy doing it is just weird. Stop it. Lucy is not JD so stop trying to make her that way and let her be her own character. It is going to be sad enough when Zach Braff leaves for good, we don't need his fraternal twin walking around the place.
I wonder if I was the only one who noticed Dr. Beardface made a cameo in tonight's episode? Oh sorry, mind wandered there for a minute. I truly do not understand why Dr. Cox feels that Drew should be his protege when his female doppleganger is walking around the hospital committing vending machine rage. Honestly though I can not blame her for that one at all because there have been a couple of times I would like to take a baseball bat to the vending machines at my job. Stupid money stealing demon machines. Now I don't know why Mahoney suddenly had a change of heart about seeing that kid through his mother dying. It darn sure wasn't the pep talk Lucy gave her, if you could even call it a pep talk which I don't. For some reason we weren't priviledged enough to see her A-ha moment. Darn writers. The one character I am totally digging right now and I get nothing but a couple of snarky remarks. I guess it was better than nothing.
Ok I admit it, Cole is growing on me and I hope we get to see him do more than just spout Hipster Gibberish. By the way I am loving that term. It's much better than Cole-speak, which is what I was toying around with. For a moment during the code I thought we were going to see that he was more than just a trust fund baby. Now I am not saying that I want Cole to go through some miraculous change of self and turn into the perfect gentleman, but I would like to see that he is there for more than just smarmy comic relief. Hell, we even got to see The Todd act like a doctor some of the time. So it shouldn't be too much of a stretch to infuse him with some doctoring skills as well.
Just a quick thought: Has dodgeball always been that ruthless?

Emerging applications of OR/MS: emergency response planning and production planning in semiconductor and printing industry
Ekici, Ali
MetadataShow full item record
In this thesis, we study three emerging applications of OR/MS, namely, (i) disease spread modeling, intervention strategies, and food supply chain management during an influenza pandemic, (ii) the practical applications of production planning and scheduling in the commercial lithographic printing industry, and (iii) packing/placement problems in chip design in the semiconductor industry. In the first part of the thesis, we study an emergency response planning problem motivated by discussions with the American Red Cross, which has taken on a responsibility to feed people in case of an influenza pandemic. During an emergency such as an influenza pandemic or a bioterror attack, regular distribution channels of critical products and services including food and water may be disrupted, or some of the infected individuals may not be able to go to grocery stores. We analyze the geographical spread of the disease and develop solution approaches for designing the food distribution supply chain network in case of an influenza pandemic. In addition, we investigate the effect of voluntary quarantine on the disease spread and food distribution supply chain network. Finally, we analyze the effect of influenza pandemic on the workforce level. In the second part, we study a real life scheduling/packing problem motivated by the practices in the commercial lithographic printing industry which make up the largest segment of the printing industry. We analyze the problem structure and develop efficient algorithms to form cost effective production schedules. In addition, we propose a new integer programming formulation, strengthen it by adding cuts and propose several preprocessing steps to solve the problem optimally. In the last part of the thesis, motivated by the chip design problem in the semiconductor industry, we study a rectangle packing/placement problem. We discuss the hardness of the problem, explore the structural properties, and discuss a special case which is polynomially solvable. Then, we develop an integer programming formulation and propose efficient algorithms to find a ``good' placement.

The New Year brings with it a chance for a fresh start. Many use this time of year as an excuse to create some New Year's resolutions that they vow to stick to for twelve months – more often than not faltering by January 31st.
If this past year has taught IT departments anything, it's that improving data security needs to be their number one resolution. We've seen business such as TalkTalk and Vodafone learn the hard way the harm a data breach can cause.
While a broken resolution may be forgivable on a personal level, the same cannot be said for businesses – and the need to stick by resolutions is of paramount importance. With tougher data regulations due to come into force, businesses have to prioritise data security in their New Year's resolutions.
Be more responsive: Most organisations now accept the inevitability of suffering a data breach, as highlighted by recent research from Quocirca.
This means greater emphasis has to be placed on detecting and responding to breaches as soon as they've occurred. It can take organisations up to 200 days to detect a data breach, which is simply unacceptable.
> See also: The 2016 cyber security roadmap
Upcoming regulatory changes such as the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR) take into account the time taken to respond to a breach, making it imperative that organisations budget for, and incorporate strategies to improve response time.
Comply with the EU GDPR: The European Union has recently confirmed that organisations can be fined up to four per cent of global turnover once the EU GDPR comes into force.
Given the stricter compliance and notification requirements of this upcoming regulation, it means security must be a priority for the board in 2016 if the business is to avoid hefty fines.
What's more, for larger businesses this fine has the potential to be even larger than the £500,000 maximum penalty the UK's Information Commissioner's Office can impose under the Data Protection Act.
Deploy more intelligent data analytics: Security infrastructure has been evolving away from the concept of a single solution. Organisations are now expanding their security beyond encryption or anti-virus software, using multiple types of protection at once.
Each of these deployed solutions generates critical data that can help organisations better understand the threats they face. In 2016 and beyond, the use of security incident and event management (SIEM) integration will help organisations analyse large groups of data sets in a more holistic context.
Leveraging advanced analytics in this way could prove to be critical in understanding an attack's origins and behaviour patterns.
Remember that all data is sensitive: In 2016 we expect to see a continued rise in data breaches that go beyond the direct targeting of credit card or financial information. For example, in 2015 sensitive information relating to US government employees was stolen from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
Another example was the breach of the Ashley Madison dating website, which had huge social ramifications. With this in mind, businesses need to make sure that they treat all data sensitively to avoid such a colossal fall out.
Be aware of the generational divide: Last year Absolute conducted research among employees who use an employer-owned device for work. The results of the survey provided insight into employee attitudes toward IT security and their use of corporate-owned mobile devices.
According to the survey, Millennials prove to be a greater risk to data security compared to other user age categories. The research demonstrates clear differences in generational behaviour and associated data security risks.
Businesses need to ensure they have adequate training schemes and policies so that employees of all generations understand the importance of data security.
> See also: Five steps for making – and keeping – 2016 IT resolutions
Don't halt innovation: Data breaches are moving up the boardroom agenda. But every time a data loss story hits the headlines, there is a danger of knee-jerk corporate reaction. Draconian security policies, such as stopping employees accessing work data through mobile devices, can cripple an organisation's productivity.
However, if a business wants to encourage innovation and maintain its competitive edge, it needs to take a mature approach to data. Curtailing data-centric projects out of fear of a data breach is not a long term solution.
2016 looks set to be another challenging year for business and IT leaders. With the increasingly unforgiving nature of customers, and more stringent regulation coming into force, new processes must be put into place and stuck to.
Unlike the lack of commitment that most New Year's resolutions are met with, businesses cannot afford to be so lax in 2016.

Global retail giant Walmart has stopped lobbying with US lawmakers on India-specific issues, after continuously seeking their support for about five years, to facilitate its entry into the Indian market.
The disclosure incidentally comes at a time when the government is preparing a report based on findings of a probe into Walmart's US lobbying activities for its India foray.
Meanwhile, the Enforcement Directorate (ED), which is probing alleged violations of foreign exchange laws by Walmart in its investment in Bharti Ventures' arm Cedar Support Services, has asked the RBI for fresh clarifications regarding the recently-notified FDI rules.
The ED has approached the RBI to seek "clarity" on foreign direct investment rules before and during 2010 in the multi-brand retail sector, before it takes a final decision to impose or defer penal action against the retail giant and its Indian partner, a revenue department source said.
According to latest lobbying disclosure reports filed by Walmart and its registered lobbyists with the US Senate and the House of Representatives, the company spent close to $2 million (around Rs 12 crore) on various lobbying activities during the second quarter ended June 30. However, no India-specific matter figures among close to three dozen issues discussed by Walmart and its lobbyists with the lawmakers in the US during this period.

Lion Gate Piers
Why this project?
The piers are most significant in evoking Wren's original great scheme for a north approach to Hampton Court Palace, although built at a time (1699 – 1713) when the scheme itself had been abandoned.
The Lion Gate is the most important monumental, independent and external creation both devised and built in the 18th Century.
What is the problem?
Surveys have identified sections of spalled stone, most noticeable on one of the pilasters on the south elevation of the west pier where a section of stone has fallen off, behind which a corroded tie is visible.
Other spalling has occurred on the pilasters and in various other locations particularly around the entablature at high level. This spalling is consistent with corrosion of the iron cramps behind.
A number of horizontal and vertical joints in the stone work have also opened up allowing water ingress which in turn leads to moisture retention within the structure hastening the deterioration of iron cramps and the mortar bonding between the ashlar stone and the brick core
What have we been doing recently?
The project team have been developing the conservation strategy and schedule of works in liaison with English Heritage.
When is the work happening?
The conservation strategy is presently being developed between the project team and English Heritage with project commencement programmed for September 2008.
Who is involved?
Project Manager: Rob Umney, Historic Royal Palaces
Architect: Gilmore Hankey Kirke Ltd.

Murder, Medicine and Motherhood
€ 62,99
pdf eBook
Sofort lieferbar (Download)
Februar 2012
BeschreibungSince the early 1990s, unexplained infant death has been reformulated as a criminal justice problem within many western societies. This shift has produced wrongful convictions in more than one jurisdiction. This book uses a detailed case study of the murder trial and appeals of Kathleen Folbigg to examine the pragmatics of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. It explores how legal process, medical knowledge and expectations of motherhood work together when a mother is charged with killing infants who have died in mysterious circumstances. The author argues that Folbigg, who remains in prison, was wrongly convicted. The book also employs Folbigg's trial and appeals to consider what lessons courts have learned from prior wrongful convictions, such as those of Sally Clark and Angela Cannings. The author's research demonstrates that the Folbigg court was misled about the state of medical knowledge regarding infant death, and that the case proceeded on the incorrect assumption that behavioural and scientific evidence provided independent proofs of guilt. Individual chapters critically assess the relationships between medical research and expert testimony; the operation of unexamined cultural assumptions about good mothering; and the manner in which contested cases are reported by the press as overwhelming.

Strathcona Canadian Pacific Railway Station
Strathcona Canadian Pacific Railway Station was built by the Calgary and Edmonton Railway in what was then the City of Strathcona, Alberta. The station was started in 1907, completed in 1908, and expanded in 1910, and is located at what is now 8101 Gateway Boulevard, just south of Whyte Avenue.
The building was initially the northern terminus of the Calgary and Edmonton Railway serving Strathcona and Edmonton, although Canadian Pacific later expanded that line north across the North Saskatchewan River via the High Level Bridge into Edmonton proper. The building was designated a Canadian Heritage Railway Station in 1991,[1] when it was still owned by CP and therefore subject to federal regulation. After being sold by CP it was designated a Municipal Historic Resource in 2003,[2] and a Provincial Historic Resource in 2004.[3]
From 1998 to 2010 the building was home to the Iron Horse Night Club, one of Edmonton's largest nightclubs, with two levels, eights bars, four rooms, a dance floor, and a stage; it hosted over 1000 people on an average night.[4][5]
Previous station in Strathcona[edit]
The 1908 station was the second in Strathcona. The original 1891 station was demolished after this bigger station opened; however, a replica is now in the Calgary & Edmonton Railway Station Museum located at present day 10447 86 Avenue, four blocks north of the 1908 station.[6][7]
