We thank De Pascale et al for their interest in our article in CHEST (December 2010).1 Our study (and those by other authors) showed that after IV administration of colistin methanesulfonate (CMS), the plasma concentration of colistin is apparently suboptimal. The adverb "apparently" is necessary because the values of the pharmacodynamic indices that best predict the efficacy of (free) colistin have been determined in in vitro and animal studies,2,3 but are not yet known for humans. The results of in vitro pharmacodynamic studies of antibiotics, although very useful for correlating drug concentrations and pharmacologic effects, might not be directly translatable to the clinical setting. In the case of colistin, the picture is even more complex. In fact, colistin (like polymyxin B) binds to the lipopolysaccharides (LPS) released by killed bacteria also at concentrations below the minimum inhibitory concentration and which, therefore, have no effect on bacterial counts.4 This colistin-LPS binding could inhibit the toxic effects of the bacterial products, or contrariwise, could reduce the amount of available colistin and its bactericidal activity. The balance between the beneficial and harmful effects of LPS binding has not yet been defined.
De Pascale et al also emphasize another worrisome risk of suboptimal antibiotic concentrations: the risk of favoring the emergence of resistance to colistin. Resistance to colistin is not very common. This might be due, in part, to the fact that colistin-resistant bacteria present downregulation of several proteins (outer membrane proteins, chaperones, protein biosynthesis factors, metabolic enzymes), which reduce their biologic fitness and induce phenotype instability.5 Nevertheless, resistance to colistin is being increasingly described,6-8 likely because of the increasing use of CMS, and heteroresistance to colistin among clinical strains of multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii has also been reported recently.9 Combination therapy (eg, CMS plus another antibiotic, or CMS administered via two different routes) might reduce the risk of the emergence of resistance to colistin.
In the next 8 to 10 years we might only be able to combat pan-resistant gram-negative bacterial infections with the use of colistin, this "old" and neglected, but complex and interesting, antibiotic. The definition of the optimum dosing regimen, including total daily dose, dosing intervals, and combination therapy, will, therefore, be of paramount importance to maximize bacterial killing and minimize emergence of resistance.

RE: James Stanley Gandee
That's a new one on me... I heard about her fighting of a pack of hungry wolves, killing several of them, but never a story about her killing a person, let alone one of her grandsons. My paternal grandmother seemed to know all the family lore, and loved to talk about it till she bored you to death, but she never made mention of a story like that. If you ever find any confirmation or further details about that story, I'd be grateful if you'd pass it along to me. I'll do the same for you.

Hi Cuz... I was just going by the records that James Stanley Gandee had written down in my grandfather's bible (He was James' grandson, Otmer Gandee Sr... Of course he was 93 at the time he wrote the name Leah, which means it might have been my grandma's error in transcribing his writing when she wrote the names down for me many years later. Either way, thanks for the information, it was nice hearing from you.

"Have you seen Alek today?" I ask Cass as the day is wrapping up.
"I didn't see him all day so I called, his phone's closed. I left a message but he didn't answer." She says back to me as we leave the lecture room for lunch.
"You two are pretty close, right?"
She stops and look at me strait in the eyes. "Are you asking if I'm dating him?"
"Are you? I mean I saw you two leaving in the same car a few days ago."
She sigh noisily and rolls her eyes. "We aren't. He's just a friend."
"Did you go on a date with him?"
"No!" She exclaim loudly before adding "Well... Kind of... sort of. It was between friend. Nothing romantic."
"Oh, I see. So nothing happened?"
She reddens slightly when I ask that. "Why are you so interested in knowing?" She then defend herself.
Shit... I can't tell her I'm suspecting Alek to be a murderous blood-drinker that has people assassinated... What exactly can I say? I toss a few lies around in my head for several seconds of atrociously grating silence.
Before I can find what to say, she stops dead in the middle of the corridor and look at me with a piercing stare. "Ok, look; Yes, I am single but I'm here at College to learn, not find people to get into my pants alright? Can we just be friends and not play the dating game?"
That hadn't actually crossed my mind, I mean, she's kind of cute in that nerd girl kind of way, but sex hasn't been on my priority list since I was a teen, well, 25ish.
"Alright. That's cool with me." I say semi-awkwardly.
"Thanks" She says kissing my cheek. "That's as much as you're getting."
Although there's not much to it, the brief contact and proximity is enough to wake the beast in my mind, making it cry for me to fulfill it's basic desires.
"Hey Cass, I'm not feeling too well so I'll take the last class of." I say as we get inside the cafeteria.
"Eh... Alright... Take care of yourself."
When she can no longer sees me, I run away, sprinting to get out of the crowded building and into the cold night. Vampires are lucky, they lose most of their impulse and needs; Food, sex, drinks and other needs go away and are replaced with a need for blood. Dhampirs keep all those and also crave the warm liquid that pumps in the veins of others...
In a state of mental panic and severe confusion, I stumble into a grocery shop, making my way to the butcher shop. After picking a few pieces, I disappear faster than a man can run, displaying powers in a public place is the perfect way to get burned at the stakes but I can barely think strait...
After a minute, I limply crumble down in an alley and rips the raw steaks from their packaging. Like an animal, I rips them with me teeth and devour them raw. For once, the food goes down smoothly. My mind is disgusted by the act but my body feels blissful.
After several minutes, I'm left on the ground, bloodied and panting severely, my mind slowly calming and the haze clouding my judgement clears...
Disgusted by my own behavior, I walk home at a snail's pace, using the alley so I'm not seen like this...

White Asylum
My view of how it would be like to be held hostage in a crazy house. Feel free to post yours!
I looked around, my black eyes all shifty and dialated with a hint of redness, showing my anxiety and frustration. Where was I? Everywhere was... bright, and felt so soft. The color was on the tip of my tongue as I stood up and walked on the cushiony floor. It felt like pillows have been embedded onto the floor, just for me. Feeling lightheaded, I walked forward a bit dizzy and perplexed as I fell back down again, hitting what seemed to be a padded wall with same softness as the floor's. "White..." the word sounded natural as I whispered it under my breath. I didn't like this place. Yes, it was comfortable, but it gave an eerie feeling that made my head scream bloody murder.
The idea popped into my head of red stains covering the egg shell white softness, the colors contrasted perfectly, and the room wouldn't be so dull anymore... But, where could I find red. Sitting down, I looked to see my hands. They both were a fleshy pale pink. Pink was good, but I wanted red. What was below all the pink flesh though? It must the beautiful maroon I wanted badly. A large smile spread across my face, I can finally get what I want! Quickly, I pound my arm with my opposite fist rough, hoping to break the skin. Was it painful? No, not really. Was it fun? Yes. I stopped, realizing it wouldn't come out, but my arm was a disgusting purple and blue.
A high pitched ring broke into my ears, did I do something wrong? I didn't know better, I just wanted red! I cover my ears, but it wouldn't go away. Then, something opened and these strange people burst into the room and held me down. The ring still hurt my ears and it just grew louder as I managed to hear someone say in a deep voice, "Stop screaming!" Who was screaming? Me?
They still held me down, my long black hair sprawled around everywhere, fear evident in my eyes as I saw a long pointed needle. I didn't feel any pain, but it made me go into a world of black.
When I woke up, I was greeted with the same white nightmare. Where was this place again? I couldn't remember anything and I felt cold. I couldn't move my arms, barely the upper part of my body because of this funny jacket the mean people put on me. I looked down... White. It was the same color as everything. Was this going to be my new home? I don't want it to be. The color hurts my eyes, so I close them and leaned against the soft walls. Was this my imagination? My eyes flutter open again, only to be greeted by brightness. No, this is reality.

text: Code: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0182996/ Runtime: 82 Mins Language: English Country: USA Color: Color Description: Four young campers, Craig, Peter, Ingrid and Joanie, back-pack through the mountains for a relaxing weekend in the wilderness. They are out camping in broad daylight, while someone else is killing tourists in the woods. Craig warns the others not to go into the woods alone. The hillsides are crawling with fat women huffing up hillsides, nerdy bird-watchers, and young couples. Most of whom meet gruesome ends at the hands of a deranged and growling back-woodsman with a sharp spike - who announces his presence by shaking the nearest branch and whooping. The 'happy' campers don't see a man and his wife being chucked off a cliff whilst they splash about in the river below. They enter a forest which becomes denser and darker as they progress. Peter (Nick Mc Clelland) and Ingrid (Mary Galeartz) fear that they are lost. Something large suddenly comes lunging forward with a gleaming machete. Craig (James P. Hayden) slips dead to the ground as the machete cuts him up. Peter and the others flee screaming into the forest. The rest of the day and terrifying night is spent running and hiding from the maniac murderer (Tom Drury) who is constantly in pursuit. Meanwhile the local sheriff and his deputy decide they should start to investigate some of those disappearances.

In a young star cluster perched near Orion's belt, a team at the Astrophysics Institute of the Canary Islands has spotted nearly a score of what appear to be balls of gas several times as massive as the planet Jupiter. Unlike planets, the objects--described on page 103 of this issue--are celestial free agents, drifting through the cluster rather than orbiting stars. Astronomers disagree about how they got there and what to call them.

Lionel Messi and Kobe Bryant Locked in Battle of First-Class Egos in Turkish Airlines Commercial (Video)
Originally posted on NESN.com | Last updated 12/13/12
Lionel Messi and Kobe Bryant have a lot in common. Both spent their teenage years in foreign lands. Both superstar athletes have rivals who compel them to reach higher heights. Both hate to lose at, well, anything. This was evident when Bryant and Messi engaged in a game of "can you top this?" The contest didn't take place on a field or court, but in the first-class cabin of an airplane — Turkish Airlines to be exact. The two appeared in a recent ad, in which they vie for the adulation of a young sports fan. The kid walks into the cabin and gasps after seeing Messi. He hands the soccer star a pen (for an autograph), but Bryant refused to be out-gunned for the kid's attention and admiration. A battle of wills ensues, as each legend tries to one-up the other using ball tricks, card tricks and making balloon animals. In the end there could only be one winner, but we won't tell you who it is. Watch Messi and Bryant duke it out in the video below. Have a question for Marcus Kwesi O'Mard? Send it to him via Twitter at @NESNsoccer, NESN Soccer's Facebook page or send it here. He will pick a few questions to answer every week for his mailbag. Thumbnail photo via Twitter/LeoMessi_10FCB

Galatasaray reject £5m bid from Chelsea for Alex Telles
GALATASARAY have rejected a £5m bid from Chelsea for Brazilian left-back Alex Telles.
Manager Hamza Hamzaoglu says the Turkish side want at least double that figure for the defender.
He said: "We have not received a bid which matches our valuation for Alex Telles.
"Therefore we have not allowed him to leave. If a bid comes in close to our valuation we will consider selling."
Telles, 22, joined the Turks from Gremio in January 2014 and has three years left on his current deal.

Any Willamette University student who feels unsafe around another university student who may have violated the Standards of Conduct may request a restricted contact order. To request a restricted contact order, contact Housing and Community Life (503-370-6212) or Campus Safety (503-370-6911). Campus Safety is available 24-hours a day; RAs are able to contact Professional Staff On-Call 24-hours a day if help is needed outside of business hours.
In cases involving students, Campus Life or Campus Safety will write and deliver the restricted contact notice. If a university employee is involved, Human Resources will be involved in the process. Once put in place, all restrictions apply equitably to both parties and are in effect until formally removed. While providing for reasonable access to campus resources and activities, restricted contact orders are intended to reduce the likelihood that the involved parties will have contact with each other.
There may be situations in which one or both of the parties are temporarily relocated into different residential facilities. These actions do not indicate a decision about a violation of the Standards of Conduct; rather, they are ways of limiting the interaction of the involved parties until the matter is formally resolved. Violating a restricted contact order is in itself a violation of the Standards of Conduct and will not be tolerated. Failure to abide by the restricted contact order is a serious violation and will be grounds for immediate action through a Rights and Responsibilities process.

In the spirit of Alvin Tofflers' Future Shock, a social critique of our obsession with choice, and how it contributes to anxiety, dissatisfaction and regret.
Whether were buying a pair of jeans, ordering a cup of coffee, selecting a long-distance carrier, applying to college, choosing a doctor, or setting up a 401(k), everyday decisions - both big and small - have become increasingly complex due to the overwhelming abundance of choice with which we are presented.
We assume that more choice means better options and greater satisfaction. But beware of excessive choice: choice overload can make you question the decisions you make before you even make them, it can set you up for unrealistically high expectations, and it can make you blame yourself for any and all failures. In the long run, this can lead to decision-making paralysis, anxiety, and perpetual stress. And, in a culture that tells us that there is no excuse for falling short of perfection when your options are limitless, too much choice can lead to clinical depression.
In The Paradox of Choice, Barry Schwartz explains at what point choice - the hallmark of individual freedom and self-determination that we so cherish - becomes detrimental to our psychological and emotional well-being. In accessible, engaging, and anecdotal prose, Schwartz shows how the dramatic explosion in choice--from the mundane to the profound challenges of balancing career, family, and individual needs--has paradoxically become a problem instead of a solution. Schwartz also shows how our obsession with choice encourages us to seek that which makes us feel worse.

you will get much form this book!
Repetitive? No! Good idea need long talk! always.
"Great book"
I've read a lot of books on this particular topic, and this is one of the best. I highly recommend it.
IT Guy
"I chose to stop listening"
Interesting concept taken too far. Extremely repetitive. Unlike others, I found nothing wrong with the narration. The problem is the material. The preface and first chapters were good. After that, I had to keep skipping ahead hoping to find the next concept. Eventually, I just gave up and deleted the book. Yet another new set of choices in today's world: Audio books.
"Scientific proof that " More is Less""
I have recommended it to all my family and close friends because I think they would relate to the concepts and find some helpful ideas about how to manage and live in overchoice world.
...the realization that we are making our children anxious and frazzled with overchoice
I think much more about putting myself in a situation where there are too many choices. Also I am trying to construct my environment so that there will be fewer "wrong" choices .
Great read for perfectionists :)
I read and listen to learn, enjoy and discover.
"Very informative on how choices effect us"
Very informative book on how we make choices and how these effect us. Information is based on research which are well summarised. The author gives recommendations on how best to deal with ever more increasing choices leaning toward a style of finding what satisfies our needs.
The book may be best read as paper book easy for reference. However it is well done.
"A good point made excessively."
This would have been an interesting and insightful magazine article, minus most of the the too numerous to count examples.
Readers are Leaders.
"Decisions Defined"
I really enjoyed the examples and case studies. The last chapter of the book is pure Gold.
Easy voice to listen to.
Your Choices Don't Matter....Why More is Less
Hyperbole is the Best Thing EVER!!!!
"Not my Best Choice"
1:15 to start on the myriad of ways contemporary affluent Americans are "forced" to choose.
Dodgy scientifically when he leaves the arena of "opinion". 93% of Americans are religious? Nope. 16% of Americans self describe as atheist/agnostic. Why fudge numbers like that?
Would have been an excellent op-Ed piece. And you can tell from the amount of filler just to make this into an acceptable book length
"Redundant. "
This should have been an essay, not a book. Each point gets illustrated by a dozen different examples delivered in a lilting monotony. There are some good points made, which gets the second star.
"Would read again"
Really a very interesting addition to the collection of business psychology books that are out there. It analyzes choice and the number of choices and how they affect people and their moods and attitudes and happiness with those choices.

Genre: Drama, Comedy
Alex Ozerov
Bea Santos
Sebastian Schipper
Florian Cossen
Duration: 101 min
Quality: HD []
Release: Aug 13, 2015
IMDb: 7.4
One of a kind drama with minimum cliché parts. The movie is kept absolutely simple in conversations, shots and cast. It's often really quiet but without 'chuddy' parts (never protracting).
Not really the kind of movie for a sociable evening but a very humorous drama winning over with likable, charming personalities. One of the few movies full of character with parts that may soak you up entirely.
In categories:
Narrative: 8/10, the serious topic of 'losing the will to live on' is shown in an entertaining but absolutely appropriate way. The movie brims over with sensitive insights on Mike's mind and the mindset people in his situation may have in general. Also it awakens major lust for life and may be a great watch for anyone having feelings like him. It has a wacky sense of humour and most of the 'simple kept' conversations want you to think about the sub line, but not in a very intellectual way. When Mike and Miranda meet, part of the story gets easily predictable. But the way the two main characters get to know each other, communicate and interact is affecting, lovingly intimate and absolutely unlike 'Hollywood' standard pictures. This in contrast to the (enjoyable) interactions between Mike and his mother builds the core of this movie.
Characters: 9/10, the acting is absolutely believable and especially the two main actors do a great job. If I may steal the word from another review, endearing is the perfect word to describe Mike's character. An absolutely innocent mind, who does everything quirky and honest heartedly. And this is the movie's 'foundation' - his unique personality, which is easily likable and purely human.
Cinematography: 7/10, filmed in a smooth way, guiding throughout the plot suiting music and story. The emotions are transported really convincingly, some shots are quite elaborate and unusual but without ever being over the top. A lot of scenes are filmed static but through great perspectives and perspective changes it comes off dynamically and properly done.
Music: 9/10, The music always fits and underlines situations perfectly as well as taking over the part of communication and narration. A blend of atmospheric sounds and well picked songs.

While urging the Scots to reject independence and vote "no", Cameron said, " people of Scotland that they would face a "painful divorce" from the rest of United Kingdom if they voted for independence in the referendum on Thursday, as per a report published in The Guardian.
In an extremely emotional stark message, Cameron said that the he would not remain the UK PM forever, but the Scotland's break with the rest of the UK would be permanent.
"As you reach your final decision, please don't let anyone tell you that you can't be a proud Scot and a proud Brit ... So please, from all of us: vote to stick together. Vote to stay. Vote to save our United Kingdom", he told Scottish people.
He also warned if Scotland gets freedom, then the UK would deprive them of its Pounds currency.
In October 2012, British Prime Minister David Cameron and Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond signed the Edinburgh Agreement, allowing Scotland to hold an independence referendum on the question of "Should Scotland be an independent country?" The vote is scheduled for Thursday.

2. CASS ELLIOTMamas and the Papas-CHOKED ON A HAM SANDWICH?Elliot died in her sleep on July 29, 1974 while in London for a two-week engagement at the Palladium. A persistent rumor holds that the famously obese singer died from choking on a ham sandwich. But her cause of death was actually a heart attack brought on by fatty myocardial degeneration due to obesity which the ham probably didnt help much.
3. BRIAN JONESThe Rolling Stones-DEATH BY MISADVENTURE:Jones was discovered dead in his swimming pool on July 3, 1969. Coroners ruled his death an accident, noting his alcohol and substance abuse played a role and calling it death by misadventure. Theories and rumors have swirled for decades that the former Stone was murdered, though despite a new investigation in 2008, nothing has ever been proven.
4. DENNIS WILSONThe Beach Boys-DRUNK DIVING:The drummer and singer drowned on Dec. 28, 1983 while diving from his yacht after drinking all day. Wilson was reportedly trying to recover some items he had thrown overboard three years earlier. He was 39 years old.
5. JUDGE DREADEnglish ska and reggae musician-ONSTAGE HEART ATTACK:The Judge died doing what he loved: performing. He collapsed onstage at the end of a show in Canterbury, England, on March 13, 1998, at the age of 55. Lets hear it for the band, he said before kneeling down. He was suffering a heart attack, but the crowd initially thought it was a joke. An off-duty doctor realized what was going on and tried to resuscitate him, but to no avail. According to one account, the ambulance that subsequently arrived wouldnt start, and when the Judges fans began pushing it to the hospital, police accused them of trying to steal it.

MICHAEL HUTCHENCEINXS-AUTO-EROTIC ASPHYXIATION?time of his death on Nov. 22, 1997, in a Sydney, Australia hotel room.A coroner ruled that Hutchence committed suicide while under the influence of drugs and alcohol, dispelling the widespread rumor that his death was accidental and caused by auto erotic asphyxiation. But two years later, Tigers mother, Paula Yates, suggested during a 60 Minutes interview that auto eroticism did cause his death, and many family members and fans to this day consider it accidental.
7. MIKE EDWARDSElectric Light Orchestra-KILLED BY A HAY BALE:Pramada died on Sept. 3, 2010 on the road near his home in Devon when a bale of hay weighing 1300 pounds rolled down a hillside and collided with his van.

THE IN-HOUSE job market is picking up, according to a new business salary survey.
Legal recruitment firm Michael Page Legal says it has noticed signs of a distinct improvement in the job market for in-house lawyers who can generally expect to earn more than they would in private practice.
The average starting salary for a newly qualified in-house lawyer stands at u25,000 and moves to u50,000 for lawyers with 10 years' experience, according to the firm's annual survey of in-house lawyers' wage packets.
The top salary recorded in the survey is u192,000 for the head of legal in the pharmaceuticals chemicals sector. The national average for the legal department head stands at u73,200.
According to the survey, the most common size for an in-house team is two lawyers plus support staff. Just under three quarters of the companies surveyed employed less than five in-house lawyers.
Former in-house lawyer Susanne Vahl approached 500 companies to compile the survey.
The survey contains no data on the level of recruitment activity in the industry, but Vahl says companies were questioned about their hiring policies.
She is confident young lawyers with two to four years' post qualification experience are benefiting from a "distinct improvement" in the legal recruitment market.
"For the last few years there have been head count freezes at many companies. The heads of department I've been speaking to say they have been rushed off their feet and the first thing they're doing as the freeze is lifted is recruiting juniors to take on some of the burden."
Michael Page Legal's optimistic assessment of the in-house job market is supported by a survey published earlier this year by the City law firm Manches.
Forty-two per cent of the companies approached in the Manches survey said they had legal departments, 10 per cent more than last year. Eleven per cent of the companies with in-house departments anticipated increasing their legal staff in the next 12 months.

Non Qualified Rate: A Figment of Your Processor Imagination
Are you looking at your credit card processing statement every month while banging your head against the wall trying to figure out how to lower your non qualified credit card processing fees?
If so, you'll be really happy to learn that non qualified rates are nothing more than a figment of your processor's imagination often used to increase profits through the practice of excessive surcharing. Non qualified rates can be easily avoided, and this article will show you how to rid yourself of non qualified fees forever.
- The frustration of non qualified charges.
- Interchange rates are the only reality.
- Processors use the complexity of pricing to increase profits.
- Your processor is the puppet master of your rates.
- Interchange pass through: The light at the end of the non qualified tunnel.
The frustration of non qualified charges.
Frustration with non qualified charges goes something like this for most business people...
It all starts when you read your credit card processing statement and cringe at all the non qualified fees. Then you pick up the phone and call your processor's customer service center to inquire about the charges. The person that answers the phone tells you that non qualified fees are a fact of life, and you are accepting business and reward cards that Visa and MasterCard consider non qualified.
At this point you start to get frustrated, so you push a little harder for a solution. Alas, it never comes. So, by now you're getting even more frustrated, the representative is the representative is becoming less helpful, and they agree to lower your rates to appease you.
Here's where you pause and ponder... it all seemed too easy. How can the processor lower my rates so quickly? Having accomplished what seems like a victory, you hang up the phone with a hollow feeling in the pit of your stomach. You won the battle, but know that the war is far from over. You fully expect to see those non qualified fees next month, but at least the rate will be lower this go-around, right?
(Repeat process next month)
If this sounds remotely like your situation, this article will save you time, money and a big headache.
Interchange rates are the only reality.
There's a little something called interchange that dictates what processing banks pay issuing banks when you process a credit card. Since interchange is the same for all processors, the details of how it works are incidental, so you don't have to worry about the terminology or intricacies of how things work.
Just understand that interchange is the equivalent of a wholesale price list for credit card processing.
A link to the actual interchange rate lists for Visa and MasterCard is provided at the end of this article, but let's not look at that quite yet.
Processors use the complexity of pricing to increase profits.
There are a lot of different interchange rates, about 400 or so, and they're assessed individually on a per transaction basis. This means that every single transactions is assigned an interchange rate based on the type of card the customer uses, how the transaction is processed (swiped, keyed, etc.) and a host of other variables.
Some of this may sound familiar because processors will often use a version of this truth to sell the story about non qualified rates. For example, you may have been told that "all of your transactions will be qualified except for reward and business cards," which is simply not the case.
A Non Qualified Rate Example
A perfect example of this twisting of the truth comes courtesy of Wells Fargo. If you check out that link, you'll notice that in the very first paragraph Wells Fargo says,
"A non qualified fee ... is ... generated when a transaction ... does not meet Visa®, MasterCard®, and Discover® Network requirements."
Visa, MasterCard and Discover don't have any requirements that determine whether a transaction is non qualified. They have guidelines that determine into which interchange category a transaction qualifies, but there is no such thing as a non qualified rate.
Wells Fargo goes on to say,
"... Visa, MasterCard and Discover Network assign the appropriate interchange level. Each account is set up [Read: Wells Fargo sets up each account] with an interchange level according to its processing method and business type. Any transaction that does not qualify at that level [Read: Any transaction that does not qualify at the level Wells Fargo determines] may result in a non qualified fee being charged."
So, which is it? Do Visa, MasterCard and Discover determine which transactions are non qualified, or do they simply "assign the appropriate interchange level?"
The answer is B. Visa, MasterCard and Discover assign the appropriate interchange level, and Wells Fargo determines what it feels is non qualified.
Since interchange is confusing, processors created a pricing model that simplifies costs by grouping interchange fees into fewer categories called qualified, mid-qualified and non qualified. The qualified rate is the lowest and the non qualified rate is the highest.
Processors got one thing right. The simplicity of tiered pricing often makes it easy to understand, but it also makes it easier for processors to separate you from your money. As we will explain in a moment, tiered pricing is opaque, misleading and expensive.
Your processor is the puppet master of your rates.
The reason why tiered is so evil is because it gives your processor the ability to manipulate costs behind the scenes by allowing them to control which pricing tier gets used the most.
For example, your processor doesn't have to raise your rates to increase its profits (and your costs). All it need to do is route more interchange fees to your mid and non qualified tiers. Sure, you will still have a nice low qualified rate, but it will rarely be used.
Remember how your processor was able to lower your rates so easily? Your processor knew that lowering your rates a few percentage points wouldn't hurt its profits because it can simply route a larger portion of your transactions to the mid and non qualified tiers. Sure, your rates went down, but your overall cost will remain the same, or may even increase.
Interchange pass through: The light at the end of the non qualified tunnel.
This article began by telling you that non qualified fees are nothing more than a figment of your processor's imagination. Well, it's true. Tiered pricing isn't the only game in town.
All you need to do to completely rid yourself of non qualified rates is to get interchange pass through pricing.
That's it! Dump tiered pricing for pass through and you will eliminate your processor's ability to play games with your rates.
Unlike tiered pricing, pass through functions by allowing you to pay the actual interchange fees. Instead of charging several different rates, your processor makes money by charging a single fixed markup. The result is lower cost and a more transparent processing statement. Imagine, you will actually be able to see where your money is going each month.
So, where can you get pass through pricing? If you want to do things the easy way, sign up for free at CardFellow and get competitive quotes from multiple processors instantly. We'll even help you decide which option is best, and we'll make sure you rates stay low indefinitely.
Alternatively, you can pull up your favorite search engine and start calling processors one by one asking if they offer pass through pricing.
The links to the Visa and MasterCard interchange fees are here.
I was recently approach by a merchant processing company that quoted me a 1% qualified credit, 2.99% non qualified, and 7 cents on all transactions. The rates will stay the same for the entire life of business. Is this considered tier pricing, and is it a good deal? Thanks
I have been with Leaders Merchant Services for 2 months and I'm already getting gouged. My fault — I should have seen your Web site first. can I get them to change to pass-through pricing, or not? What should I do?
CardFellow has this 100% correct. If you (the merchant) are not on a cost-pass-through program with your current processor, then you are on a confusing three-tier program, and have to deal with qualified vs. non-qualified transactions, and hidden surcharges over the real interchange rates. As a result, you have no idea how much revenue your processor is making off your business over the actual cost of processing, and therefore you are probably grossly overpaying for processing.
To save money on your processing, you have to stop thinking in terms of "rates". For example, let's say you currently have a "great" qualified rate of 1.48% + 10 cents. Well, the reality is it isn't great — since it is already marked-up by about 50% over the actual cost! How is that possible? Well, that "great" rate probably only applies to debit card transactions! And debit card transactions typically have an interchange rate of about 1% + 10 cents (which will be even lower once the recent government regulations become effective). So, that rate offered by your current processor is already marked-up far above the real, lower interchange rate! That stinks!
And what stinks even more, is that most of your transactions are going to be non-qualified! And that means your processor's mark-ups over the real interchange rates will go even higher! Expect to pay even greater mark-ups if you accept a credit card, even more if it is a business/rewards credit card, and even more if it is keyed-in (as opposed to swiped). Those mark-ups are on top of the actual, real interchange rates, which are going to be higher for a credit card, or a keyed-in card. So, for example, a business rewards credit card might have a real interchange rate of 2.1% + 10 cents. But since it is non-qualified, your current processor may add an additional 2% non-qualified surcharge on top of that, so you would be paying 4.10% for that transaction. Some non-qualified surcharges are even higher!! Their surcharges are adding insult to injury!
The good news is that if you've read this much on CardFellow, you'll soon be able to avoid all this three-tier, qualified vs. non-qualified, hidden surcharge nonsense by getting your business on a cost-pass-through pricing platform (like those offered through CardFellow). Good luck!

|Elvstroem is a thoroughbred racehorse out of Circles of Gold by Danehill. He was born around 2000 in Australia, and was bred by Mr. F. B. J Tagg, F. Meduri & G. Moffitt.
|Major wins
Victoria Derby (2003)
Caulfield Cup (2004)
Underwood Stakes (2004)
C F Orr Stakes (2005)
St George Stakes (2005)[2]
Dubai Duty Free Stakes (2005)
|Horse (Equus ferus caballus)
|Last updated on January 19, 2008
Elvstroem (foaled 14 November 2000 in Australia) was an outstanding bay Thoroughbred racehorse, by world champion sire Danehill from the former champion three-year-old filly, Circles of Gold.
Circles of Gold, is a 1991 chestnut mare by the Australasian Champion Sire and Broodmare sire Marscay. She was bred at Widden Stud, where her sire used to stand. Circles of Gold was purchased by McDonalds Licensees - Frank Tagg, Frank Meduri and Gary Moffitt at the sales and raced in their famous gold/white and red colours.
Circles of Gold faced the starter on 43 occasions, winning 6 and placing in a further a 13 races. Her most notable victory was the 1995 AJC Oaks, she also placed in the Group 1 Caulfield Cup of 1996 to the now deceased filly Arctic Scent, a race her son would capture in 2004. She was a winner of over $900,000 in stakes.
Her other progeny include Gold Rush, Lady Circles, Hveger, and Haradasun, winner of the 2007 Group 1 George Ryder Stakes and the Group 1 Doncaster Handicap.
At the sales
Elvstroem sold for AUD$300,000.00 at the Inglis Sales of 2002 to leading South Coast trainer Bede Murray (most notable horses include Universal Prince and Victory Rein), however the sale fell through and he was returned to his breeders, McDonald's Licensees Frank Tagg, Frank Meduri and Gary Moffitt. Little did they realise that their Danehill colt would become one of Australia's best racehorses post 2000.
Race record
Elvstroem was trained by Tony Vasil at Caulfield. He raced 32 times, winning 10 races and placing on 9 other occasions. His most notable victory came way in the 2004 Caulfield Cup where he beat the champion racemare Makybe Diva by a nose. Although he didn't win, his 4th in the Melbourne Cup on a track rated heavy is considered one of his best, due to him not being considered a chance of running. His other major wins came way in the Group 1 VRC Derby of 2003, Group 1 MRC Underwood Stakes, Group 1 MRC C F Orr Stakes and Group 1 Dubai Duty Free Stakes at Nad Al Sheba Racecourse in Dubai.
He won $5,722,274 in stakes, and won from distances of 1300 metres (6½ furlongs) up to 2,500 metres (12½ furlongs). Interestingly, in races in which both he and Makybe Diva participated, he finished ahead of her the majority of the time.
At stud
In 2005, Elvstroem retired to stud at Victoria's famed Blue Gum Stud Farm. The stud had been looking for a replacement after losing Encosta De Lago to Coolmore Stud the previous season. Blue Gum Stud has stood the stallions, Rubiton (now deceased), Noalcoholic, Rancho Ruler and the consistent sire Umatilla.
In 2005 Elvstroem covered 166 mares, at AUD$38,500.00 per mare. His bookings included stakes producing mare Add Tinsel (dam of Caulfield Cup placegetter/stakes winner Celestial Show & Fashion Victim), stakes winner British Lion, Group 2 winner Climb The Vine, stakes producing mare Dangerous Seam (dam of Real Jester & Seidnazar), stakes producing mare Gabbing Glora (dam of Caulfield Cup Australasian record holder Diatribe), stakes producing mare Lottey (dam of Gold Lottey), Group 3 winner Sunny Lane, Group 2 winner Tickle My, etc.
He is the sire of Carrara, winner of the 2009 BTC Doomben Slipper.

I'm here to meet guys from 27 to 45 years old for dating, friendship, romance, marriage and serious relationship.
I like the beach,travel and learn different cultures,try new things,watching movies,live music,love reading books..
I've realized that life is indeed full of contradictions,sometimes its crazy to be sane,you need to fall to fly.People suffer because you care,you have to unlearn to know the lesson,you have to give up because you are strong.You have to be wrong to make things right,nonetheless,life complexities are also life source of beauty.we should cry to laugh again,fall apart to be whole again,.
If we fall in love because someone makes us laugh,what happens when we no longer find them funny?
if we fall in love because someone is beautiful,what happens when that beauty fades?
I f we fall in love because someone can provide for us,what happen when they lose their wealth?
Love is beyond laughter,beauty and wealth,those are just physical or temporal,so if you intend to love someone be sure to accept the challenge called'' change''......
I prefer someone honest,and knows what he wants,especially in a relationship..someone matured and faithful..not a gayish man,lol...someone i can trust and who will let me be me and won't change me for something else..someone with good values and true to himself,and most importantly a man who knows how to treat woman with respect!

ASHBURN, Va. -- He opened training camp as the starter and held that spot for the first two games of the regular season. That's when the Washington Redskins coaches decided they needed more from the position. And that meant rookie safety Bacarri Rambo went from full-time player to inactive for the past three games.
Rambo said he doesn't understand why he's not playing.
"No I don't," Rambo said. "I have no idea."
It's actually not that difficult: Rambo missed open-field tackles and the Redskins also wanted to go to another strategy, using veteran Reed Doughty as the strong safety and Brandon Meriweather as the free safety. Or they'd use Meriweather and three corners (sometimes with a fourth as the second safety). And because Rambo did not perform to expectations on special teams, the Redskins looked elsewhere there, too. Redskins coach Mike Shanahan made it clear at the time that he wanted to see how Rambo fared on special teams; coaches love when young players perform well on these units, giving them a sense that perhaps they're ready for more.
This week, Rambo might get more but that's still debatable. With Meriweather out and Doughty likely questionable with his concussion, the Redskins need help at safety. There's a good chance that E.J. Biggers will play a big role here, especially against a pass-happy team such as Denver. It's hard to imagine the Redskins would want Rambo in a single-high safety look against a veteran quarterback such as Peyton Manning.
"I'm just trying to get on special teams now," Rambo said. "That's the way I feel I can help the team. I'm just trying to do what it takes to get on special teams and the defense will come along."
He said, despite not playing, he's made strides.
"I'm learning the defensive scheme a lot better so making things a lot slower, learning how to fill in run gaps and just play coverages to defend certain routes," he said.
The Redskins selected Rambo in the sixth round out of Georgia, where he started in the last 36 games in which he played. He also appeared in 11 games as a redshirt freshman. He had issues with marijuana in college, but he did not fall this far because of that: plenty of players get picked in the early rounds with the same problems. So it was going to be a difficult adjustment -- Rambo opened as a starter as much for what the Redskins lacked than for what he showed.
That doesn't mean it's been easy not playing.
"It's been very difficult, just adversity," Rambo said. "I'm just waiting for my opportunity like Meriweather told me, 'Just be patient and be humble.' It's been very disappointing, mostly disappointed in myself most of all because I didn't perform well enough to keep my starting position so I'm just working hard and doing whatever it takes to get back on the field.
"I've never been that guy to … lose my position. It's something new I have to adjust to."
When asked if he knew what he had to work on to get back on the field, Rambo said, "I haven't really spoke about it." But he also said, when asked if it was tough that he didn't know exactly what was up, "I just go talk to the coaches and find out and I just try to get better during practice."
There is no guarantee he'll play Sunday, but defensive coordinator Jim Haslett said he's seen improvements.
"He's done a lot better, he understands it a little bit more," Haslett said. "We'll play it out this week and go with our gut feeling with who gives us the best chance."

" The security sucks! Anyone can enter the building. A girl Who was staying there told me that few days before I arrive, someone broke in and stole her money and other things in the room and the hostel did nothing about it. The bathrooms are old, dirty, and the Flush doesn't work, there's only one shower with hot water and the heater in the rooms doesn't work too. But the staff was nice, the albanian guy in the night shift helped me a lot! "- Anônimo

As DailyTech reported earlier this week, companies like Samsung are just now
bringing hybrid drives to the market which incorporate traditional spinning
discs with 128MB or 256MB of NAND flash memory. However, hybrid hard drive are
just a stop-gate measure and many manufacturers (and consumers alike) are
looking forward to completely solid-state drives (SSDs) like those from Adtron, SanDisk and Ritek.
SSDs are completely silent, offer greatly increased power
efficiency over traditional hard disk drives (HDDs), low response times and in
the case of Adtron's latest SSD offerings, quite respectable read/write speeds.
According to Shaw Wu, an analyst for American Technology
Research, Apple
is looking to introduce subnotebooks next year that will use SSDs. Wu, who
had an inside line on Apple's iPhone announcement notes that "The time is
right for the flash makers to make a move. Apple, from what we understand, is
pretty much ready. The ball is in the flash vendors' court."
Apple has quite a bit of experience when it comes to
flash-based storage. Its iPod
Nano and iPod Shuffle both use NAND memory in capacities up to 8GB. Apple's
recently announced
iPhone also uses NAND memory in capacities of 4GB and 8GB.
Apple subnotebooks, however, would likely require at least
64GB of storage to remain competitive both in terms of storage space and price
with HDD-based
subnotebooks. Currently 32GB SSDs command roughly a $600 price premium.
Given the steady decline in pricing for NAND memory, the premium could be $600
for a 64GB by the time the Apple subnotebooks hit the market.
