Retailers have always known the value of where. After all, the first question any retailer must answer correctly is where to open a storefront. Get it right and customers stroll in and spend money; get it wrong and they pass on by. Using location-based data, retailers are slowly edging their way to a deeper understanding of the value of where.
According to Deloitte, 80% of all information being collected today includes geographic data. ABI Research predicts by 2017, consumer-focused, location-based information will be a $9 billion market, with $5 billion of that just for indoor data, gathered while shoppers are already inside a store.
Smartphones, of course, generate and consume the location data that interests retailers most. Companies such as Macy's and Harrods create mobile apps for shopping online, but more importantly to entice customers with in-store offers, helping to nudge shoppers across the boundary from considering something to buying it. For example, if a customer scans an item to get more details about it on his or her smartphone, the app connects to a backend analytics application that can offer discounts or pair the item with another compatible product for an even better deal.
Advocates for location-based data retailing even see it as a potential boon for stores that have been suffering from the boom in online shopping. Bookstores, for example, could use an app to offer limited-time, in-store only purchases for customers who walk in.
For me, though, one of the more exciting possibilities for retailers will be exploring the value of location-based data hidden in directions from mapping services. Researchers at Google have been looking into "hyper-local" queries from people needing to get from place A to place B. They work under the reasonable assumption that place B is "interesting," at the very least to people who start in place A.
As you can imagine, Google and other online mapping services have enormous troves of data from users asking for directions to many interesting place Bs. By learning what makes the Bs of the world attractive to consumers (Is it a restaurant? A hotel? A sports stadium? Maybe even a bookstore?), retailers can match their compatible or contrasting storefronts to those locations.
In addition to understanding why B is an interesting place, retailers might want to analyze all the As that consumers start from. That is, perhaps there are enough people in the neighborhood around place A to warrant locating a place B closer to that place A. Savvy retail business analysts can have a field day with location-based data like this.
There are privacy issues entwined with location-based data. But retailers' opt-in apps and anonymous mapping data from Google and other services mitigate those problems to a great extent. Ultimately, though, consumers will benefit with better service and product availability when retailers not only know more precisely what people will purchase and how much they will spend for it, but where they will buy it as well.

Stocks push higher as resources rally
By Leah Schnurr
TORONTO (Reuters) - The Toronto Stock Exchange's main index finished strongly higher on Thursday, as robust resource issues benefited from higher commodity prices and led a broad afternoon rally.
The materials sector was helped by a rally in gold prices and a surge in units of Fording Canadian Coal Trust FDG_u.TO after it said it was weighing its options, including the sale of the company.
The coal producer jumped C$4.65, or 13.5 percent, to C$39.10, making it the biggest net advancer by weight. Teck Cominco TCKb.TO, which has a nearly 20 percent stake in Fording, rose C$1.61, or 4.4 percent, to C$38.11. The sector as a whole was up 2.4 percent.
The energy sector was up 1.7 percent while the price of oil climbed $2.74 to $90.23 a barrel on supply concerns and weakness in the U.S. dollar.
Canadian Natural Resources (CNQ.TO: Quote) rose C$1.60, or 2.4 percent, to C$68.09 and Husky Energy (HSE.TO: Quote) gained 81 Canadian cents, or 2 percent, to C$42.10, the day after it said it would form a joint venture with British oil major BP Plc (BP.L: Quote).
Stocks also got some support as U.S. President George W. Bush outlined a plan to freeze interest-rate increases on adjustable-rate subprime mortgages for five years.
"I think the market is looking at that in positive a way, although I do think we're bailing out the people who made some bad decisions," said Adrian Mastracci, portfolio manager and president at KCM Wealth Management Inc. in Vancouver.
"In the short term, in the next six months, it's still going to be a rocky road." Continued...

Headliner question
so when i was trying to wire my V1 i noticed that the headliner is not finished off like in normal cars the part that meets the windshield is not curved or bonded etc it just hangs there with loose threads at the end. You can not see it unless you are looking right at it. Is there a third party or any vendor that makes something so that it can be put on the edges?

Re: Headliner question
I noticed that when I had my windshield tinted, thought the shop screwed up. Glad to know this is how it comes from the factory. Might want to talk to local upholstery shop, I'm sure they have a solution for you.

UPDATE 1-Brazil prosecutors charge 12 in SBM Offshore graft scheme
(Adds police confirmation, prosecutors charges, changes dateline)
RIO DE JANEIRO Dec 17 (Reuters) - Brazilian prosecutors on Thursday charged 12 people with a bribery scheme involving Dutch firm SBM Offshore NV, the world's top leaser of oil production ships, and state oil firm Petroleo Brasileiro SA .
Police said they had four arrest orders as part of the scheme, dubbed "Operation Black Blood," though two of them involved suspects already in jail in the southern city of Curitiba, the epicenter of a broader investigation into price fixing and bribery on Petrobras contracts with engineering firms.
Former Petrobras executives Pedro Barusco, Jorge Zelada and Renato Duque were charged with corruption along with former SBM sales agents Julio Faerman and Luis Eduardo Campos Barbosa da Silva, according to a statement from federal prosecutors.
Anthony Mace and Didier Keller, both former SBM chief executive officers, were charged with racketeering and corruption as was Robert Zubiate, former senior vice president.
Earlier on Thursday, police carried out raids and arrests in "Operation Black Blood" in Rio de Janeiro, Angra dos Reis and Curitiba, police said.
The alleged bribery in the SBM probe in Brazil predates the better-known "Operation Car Wash," which is focused on graft involving engineering firms and Petrobras between 2003 and 2014.
Between 1998 and 2012, there were "undue payments" in Switzerland of at least $46 million relating to contracts for floating oil production, storage and offloading ships, prosecutors said.
They said Duque, who is currently in jail on corruption charges in Curitiba, asked SBM sales agents for $300 million for the ruling Workers' Party to fund its 2010 election campaign. Continuación...

McKiernan may become the General Shinseki of Afghanistan
- By Kori SchakeKori Schake is a fellow at the Hoover Institution.
By Kori Schake
The Obama Administration has just relieved the commander of the war in Afghanistan, General McKiernan. He had been in command for 11 months, during which time he agitated for more troops and greater unity of effort within the administration and among the allies. They have nominated to replace him the director of Admiral Mullen's Joint Staff, Lieutenant General McChrystal, plus the Secretary Gates' senior military assistant, Lieutenant General Rodriguez.
At Monday's press conference, Gates and Mullen were at a loss to explain the cause for McKiernan's relief. They would (both) say only platitudes about "with the new strategy, with the new team across the board, I felt it was very important for new leadership." When pointedly asked what McKiernan had failed to accomplish or what needed to be done differently than McKiernan envisioned, Gates and Mullen provided no substantive explanation. In interviews last week, Jim Jones, the National Security Advisor, listed among his accomplishments having pressed the Department of Defense to reduce their force requirements for Afghanistan.
An administration has the right to shop for military leadership that they find congenial — someone whose approach they feel comfortable with, who has the ability to provide military advice effectively given the personalities and policies of the administration. To Gates and Mullen's credit, they have chosen a serious-minded and accomplished replacement in McChrystal.
But whatever McKiernan's shortcomings, the quality of military leadership pales by comparison to the other shortfalls in the administration's strategy: a common approach with the Karzai government to the use of military force; inadequate vision and resourcing for the essential non-military tools (diplomats and judicial advisors and agricultural experts and economists); and an unrealistic timeline on which Afghan political leaders, soldiers, and police can provide for themselves. A new military commander cannot solve these problems, and the Afghanistan war cannot be won without solving them.
The danger for the administration in having relieved McKiernan will come if their Afghanistan strategy does not produce the desired results on the expedited timeline the administration has committed itself to. McKiernan is on record as having asked for at least 10,000 more troops than the administration provided, and given his military judgment that the political objectives military force has been enlisted to help achieve would take a decade. If Afghanistan does not turn, the Obama administration will have just created this war's Eric Shinseki.

PURCHASE LINE: Evergreen club names Boyer Youth of the Year
PURCHASE LINE — As a start to 2014, Evergreen Boys and Girls Club is proud to honor their Youth of the Year. A few months prior, senior April Boyer was nominated Youth of the Year at the regional level. After her competition in Indiana, the judges determined that she would continue to the state level in February in the Pittsburgh area. Details have not yet been finalized.
Over the past few weeks, Boyer completed the rest of her EBGC portfolio. This consisted of filling out a packet, gathering letters of recommendation and refining the speech on what the club means to her.
[PHOTO: Dan Small, district director of the Evergreen Boys and Girls Club of Indiana, congratulated senior April Boyer on advancing in the Youth of the Year program. (Christy Tiger/Purchase Line High School)]
[Read the full roundup of area high school news from the Gazette's network of student news reporters on Fridays in The Indiana Gazette and in the Student News section on The Indiana Gazette Online.]
She also had to get a copy of her transcript and complete an essay explaining the importance of a college education. Typed and cursive handwritten versions of these responses were required for submission.
Shanda Buterbaugh, an English tutor at EBGC, had to submit a narrative about Boyer's life story. Within this, she had to explain how April applies leadership at club, school, in the community and at home. A line from the narrative says, "April can always be counted on to help with activities inside the club. She is reliable and responsible in directing meetings, informal gatherings and supervising younger members."
Last month, EBGC held a holiday dinner at Purchase Line. At the Dec. 12 event, EBGC members served a turkey dinner made by Purchase Line's cafeteria staff to more than 300 people and held drawings for door prizes. Some of the club's members stayed after school to help plan and organize the event.
Christopher McClead, a senior, said, "Setting up for the holiday dinner was fun because I got to hang out with friends. The work didn't really seem like work."
"The holiday (meal) is a good idea because you get to see different people from the community. It gives you a chance to connect with old friends," said district director Dan Small.
Throughout the event, chances were drawn for MP3 players, board games and tote bags.
The dinner was free, but a bucket was left out for donations. Overall, they collected roughly $210.
Students in the Purchase Line National Honor Society went to the Indiana Mall to ring bells for The Salvation Army Red Kettle Campaign on Dec. 19.
The students participate in this yearly as their way to give back to the community. The overall experience was nice and the students had a great day.

Elling is the secretary of NHS and Phillips is vice president. (Submitted photo/Purchase Line High School)]
Senior Amy Elling, NHS secretary, said, "I enjoyed meeting different people, and liked knowing that people still give back to those in need."
"I liked helping the community," added senior Adam Farmery, the NHS public relations officer.
"I thought it was interesting to see how many people actually donate. Sometimes more people donated than I expected. It was a good experience," said NHS vice president Nicole Phillips.
Senior Brooke Temchulla danced and rang her bell while senior Anna Harkleroad sang Christmas carols when they took their turn ringing bells.
"When Anna started singing, people would stop and listen and then they stopped giving us quarters and started giving us $5 bills," Temchulla said.
The NHS members rang the bells from 1 to 3 p.m. outside various locations. For a break from the cold weather, the shifts were split into 30-minute intervals. During the time students didn't have to ring the bells, they were able to finish up some early Christmas gift shopping.
"The Salvation Army is a community service oriented faith-based organization. As such, it helps many people in our community economically, socially and spiritually," said Larry Peterson, science teacher and National Honor Society adviser.
"Proceeds from the kettle collection are used to buy necessary clothing, food and other vital life-sustaining items for our neighbors in need. Consequently, it is a valid and very rewarding community service project for our own PLHS students to volunteer to assist others in need. It helps remind us all that not everybody is as fortunate as we are," Peterson said.

Using it in 2017! :D And still i like it , of course, i dont use smartphones too often ,but i can call, listen to music,browse 9gag, FB .. That's enough for me.. And its alive after many falls
I have purchased a new battery about half a year's ago. I can't charge the phone again. I love the size of the phone. The Wi-Fi does not work either. The worst phone in my life!
I have this phone. Wifi is not working anymore. Tried 2 MiniCM custom ROMs (9 and 10) and still not working. Is it only because of the ROMs or is it dead?
CurlyBlonde, 13 Jul 2015My first smartphone! Loved this phone and used it for years , very tiny and stylish , the ph... moreReally?? Give me the link :D I can't find any lollipop on xda
lance, 21 Oct 2015How do I download watsapp guysSony stopped official upgrades at Android 2.1 on this phone, WhatsApp probably needs a later edition. One way to get it is to install a CUSTOM ROM which supports this and other apps. But first you must acquire ROOT ACCESS to your phone :)
All this takes a lot of time and a lot of DUCKDUCKGOing!
I forgot to mention that incredibly small battery... This phone was a complete disaster...
This phone has led my to decline sony and sony ericsson from my future buying brand list. After a couple of months it lags in the call log while scrolling down and it does even after a recovery. I am facing similar problems in a sony xperia u. I believe that sony is making a defective firmware and provides with problematic updates in order for consumers to buy sony's newer products
My first smartphone!
Loved this phone and used it for years , very tiny and stylish , the physical qwerty is pure heaven , nice camera on it as well for non professional pictures , still using it in 2015 as secondary phone.
PS: you can upgrade it to lolipop via XDA developers ;-)
Great little phone. If you come across one don't discard it. Poorly outdated alas but if all you want is a phone to phone with and some easy software like GPS map and/or Whatsapp, this is your phone. Keyboard makes texting nice easy, simple and fast.
I had mine for 5 years and not until now is it showing signs of wear and tear. Both on the outside as on the inside....
mines 100% fine, very tank phone but very slow wifi even tho it says 54megabits persecond.......
worst mobile.. Dont buy this. stuck always & getting restarted. Even if we give to service center, it is having same prob.. Never prefer this
my phone now problem. touch screen not working, pls tel me clear the plm
The Speaker Is Loud And Camera For Me Is Good... It Only Needs More Apps...

Apple's Newest Ad Was Filmed Entirely With iPhones [Video]
The tech giant released an 87-second video that depicts how their products are used around the world.
Instead of purchasing a Super Bowl ad spot, Apple released a 87-second film online to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Mac.
The film shows how people use iPhones, iPads, and the Mac in their daily lives to do amazing things.
The film was shot using about a hundred iPhones by 15 crews stationed in fifteen locations around the world and it was shot in one day, January 24th, the same day that Apple introduced the Mac. It all resulted to over 70 hours of footage that was then edited on Apple computers. The process took 36 hours to complete.
The video was edited by Angus Wall and a team of 21 editors. The film was directed by Jake Scott, son of Ridley Scott, who directed Apple's Super Bowl ad in 1984.

Irv Robinson is the BEST
+1 on going to Irv for your BMW, I can't recommend him enough...he's not a car salesman, he's a human who wants to make all his clients happy!
I got my 335i coupe thru the ED in Sept, and re-delivery at the PC last week: getting a BMW from Irv Robinson it's like peanut butter and jelly sandwhich: can't imagine one without the other!
Cheers, Ted
I agree with all the positive posts above. Irv is Awesome. I've done 2 ED's with Irv, a 2007 328xi and a 2008 328xi and he was honest and helpful through the entire process and gave me a good deal. He made the trip of a lifetime possible and stress free. I've recommended friends, family and coworkers to him and he has earned my future business.

RETIRED: 10/19/06 ED: 2007 e92 328xi Space Grey, Cream Beige, Burl Walnut, Premium, Sport, Step, Nav, Comfort Access, Heated Seats
I have nothing but good things to say about my ED purchase from Irv. Irv and his assistants have made the whole experience quite enjoyable- very simple and stress free. Irv also provided some excellent advice for our first ED trip and always was prompt answering questions by phone or e-mail. Hopefully I will be picking my car up at Motorwerks just before Thanksgiving-- the wait is brutal!!
Same here. Very pleased with Irv & ED so far. I'm at the last stretch of my adventure...the car was unloaded of the ship yesterday.
Another for Irv. I called him initially to get info on the ED program. He spent over a half hour on the phone with me going over the details and joys of European travel. No pressure but loads of enthusiasm.
As it turns out ED didnt work out but I did buy from Motorwerks. Great organization.
My car arrived on Friday. He met us on Sunday, so I could get my car (live 330 miles from Barrington). And the car was warming up when we got there.
The whole buying a car experience through ED from Irv was stress free and very pleasant. Defenitely will recommend him to others.
Can anyone recommend other excellent CA's on east coast ( I am in New York)

As my existing lease came to a close, my accountant informed me about his European Delivery. As I began researching, MotorWerks was the first website to really catch my attention. The countless descriptions of what a wonderful experience this was seemed too good to be true.
Fast forward to the present day: All of the things that were described on the European Delivery website were absolutely true. Purchasing the car from Irv and MotorWerks was such a breeze that we were able to focus on planning and enjoying the traveling and activities associated with ED. The only difficulty was enduring the wait until our departure and awaiting our car to be delivered to the States.
Our trip starts in Miami, where my wife and I depart for Munich. We landed in the afternoon, after an uneventful flight, took a cab to the Hotel Uhland, a great location at a reasonable price, even recommended by European travel author Rick Steves. That evening we walked to the Marienplatz and had dinner at the Hoffbrau Haus. We called it an early evening, as we were to pick up our car the following day.
The next day, after breakfast, we took the train to the Olympic Park station and enjoyed the five minute stroll to the BMW Welt.
Wow! What an incredible building! It was like entering this ultra-modern future world of sculpted metal, glass and stone. People wandered the spaces, gazing and interacting with BMWs of all sizes and colors. A glass elevator tales us up to the Delivery Lounge, where we were not only greeted, but expected. We signed our documents, took part in some refreshments and wandered around, until we met up with Bernard, our delivery specialist.
He took us to a sleek presentation room and familiarized us with the BMW design process and philosophies, specifically about our car the 335i Cabriolet. We were impressed by the simulator where we could better familiarize ourselves with the iDrive. I felt like James Bond being briefed by Q, about a state-of-the-art, super car with amazingly cool accessories.
Just as we began excitedly wondering, "When can we actually see and touch our car?", Bernard had us proceed to the mezzanine, which showcased about eight cars, each one on a rotating platform, while the patrons of Welt gazed out beyond, wishing that they could be the one sitting in their own BMW, very much "On Stage" while pictures are taken and hands are shaken.
We started the engine, put the car in gear and drove down the ramp through the Welt, signaling the control room to disengage the immense shiny metal doors at the end. The doors opened, allowing us to depart the Motherland of Bimmer World. Just imagine going to a very modern art museum, and leaving with one of its most celebrated works of art. That is how one feels when driving a new BMW out of the Welt.
The iDrive features and Navigation System came though and got us back to the Hotel Uhland without any trouble. Exhausted, we walked to the nearest Beer Garden and relaxed.
The next day we nervously drove out of Munich to our destination:
The Dolo-mites, specifically Rosa Alpina, a resort in the small Italian village of San Cassiano. The drive was a lot of fun and the car performed flawlessly, whether on the Autobahn or winding though the mountains. After a few days of great wine and spectacular food, we headed over to Mittenwald, where we stayed at the Hotel Post.
Anxious to get the car on its way to the United States, we decided to deliver the car back in Munich, and incredibly easy process that included signing the documentation and conducting a final inspection, all in about twenty minutes. We were then off to the airport to catch a flight to Paris for a week meeting with friends before we returned to Miami.
Six weeks later, we flew to Spartanburg, South Carolina to reunite with our baby Bimmer. BMW treated us to a night at the Greenville Marriott that included a wonderful breakfast and dinner. The next morning we were chauffeured in a new X5 to the BMW Performance Center, where we met Donnie Isley, a Formula 1 race car driver. After a brief class on the 50/50 Weight Ratio, ABS brakes, speed and other stuff, we were each issued our own car: the instructor in an X3, my wife in an X6 and the rest of us in 335is.
The first experience: from a stand-still position we floored it, getting up to 55 mph and upon reaching the predetermined speed slammed on the brakes and tried to maneuver around objects on the road. The car never skidded sideways across the wet pavement, always in control.
The second part of the driving course involved driving as fast as you could through a slalom course, with the instructor always in radio contact, yelling "Brake, Brake!", "Gas it!", or "You're turning too late!" Twice around the course, my adrenaline engaged, we got to switch cars. These cars are simply amazing, and so much fun to drive.
Next we moved on to the skid pad, a polished donut of wet concrete, to experience how the "traction control" works. Some people may need Dramamine for this: One starts with the "traction control" in the off position, you accelerate to about 20 mph, let off of the accelerator, then you floor it. Your car spins out of control, doing multiple 360s. Eventually you engage the Traction Control, repeat the same exercise and, like magic; the car stays in line, completely in control.
After lunch with the instructor and a review of our new car, Donnie gave us a "hot lap" in an M5. To get an idea of what this is like, check out the YouTube video filmed by others:
Everyone should experience this driving adventure. From the BMW Welt, the museum, driving on wonderful roads in Europe, and truly understanding what driving a BMW is all about***********: the pure joy of driving a car that makes you feel as if you're in complete control.

Here are the pics ...
These are my pics from my ED trip (I forgot to attach them before)
Irv was right ... What a trip!!!
nice pics! What time of year were you there? I'm guessing it wasn't December with all the green on the hills...
2013 335i (ED)
previously owned:
2004 330Ci
2008 335i (ED)
I wanted to add to the positive comments about Irv, as I benefited from others feedback to choose him for my CA. I did it all through Irv: ED and PCD and now I have my 335i home at last. Between Irv and Bimmerfest, I was able to order the car of my dreams, for a great price and for an even better experience (ED and PCD are both quite different, but both are incredible, not to be missed adventures). Irv made the process not only pleasant but seamless. This is no small feat considering all of the details involved for a BMW order, ED and a PCD and considering Irv is in Chicago and I live in Florida. I was naturally suspicious of all the praise that Irv had on this site, but I'm a believer now. He kept in contact with e-mail, phone and FedEx. Everything was done for me including FedExing the Florida plates to me from Chicago! He really earned my business and I will continue to use him in the future.
I worked with Irv, and he went beyond any other CA that I have used. It was a long distance sale, and he made it effortless.
I am completely new to ED, and Irv was the first person I contacted. He responded to emails faster than I could type them, spent over 30 minutes on the phone explaining everything to me, and even when I told him I wouldn't be able to do business with him because of the distance, was willing to answer my questions. The man is a legend when it comes to ED, and not enough good things can be said about him. Keep it up Irv! We need more people like you in the business!
This is such a long thread, but if you read it all you will see I posted about one year ago. I am through with the entire process and am even more of a raving fan than before. Re-delivery in Chicago (Barrington) worked for me, even though I live in Texas. Irv was fantastic, along with his supporting staff. I am hopeful to do this again, and certainly, through Irv Robinson. Even many months after re-delivery, Irv is contacting me to make sure everything is still going well with my car. If you are going the ED route, you cannot go wrong with Irv.
2008 335i Coupe, premium, sport, cold weather, comfort access, nav, HD & satellite radio, ipod & USB adapter, sparkling graphite, black, gray poplar
FYI - I spend a long weekend in Chicago when picking up the car (a little thank you present to my wife). We got a great deal with the fabulous Drake Hotel in Downtown Chicago on Hotwire. For $99/night - we didn't want to go home!

Look at all of the people watching you get your cool car.
I purchased my first BMW and decided to also do ED last year. I went to my local dealer (who was only 2 minutes from me) and was told that for the price I was asking for, I would show up in Munich to no car. I found Irv and stayed in contact with him and Angela constantly. There were no hassles or issues about the price I was asking for. The local dealer here also said that I couldn't do PCD for a 3-series - he was wrong. Irv/Angela said 'No Problem' - esp since I live in Virginia. I was very happy that I decided to go with Irv and his team. All I had to do was plan my trip and think about the moment I would get my car. They also have kept in touch with me after delivery, which is a nice bonus for me. They could've easily wrote me off as another sale and moved on to the next person.
European Delivery
So....another very happy customer from Irv!
I just got back from my trip with my wife and this was an experience of a lifetime. From arriving in Munich, touring the facilities, and receiving your car for the first time was incredible! We saw multiple cities in 5 countries and did it at our own pace. The car drove like a dream and we hit speeds that would've put us in the clink in a heartbeat here back home. It's such a tease because now I have to wait 5 or 6 more weeks for the car to get back to me, but believe me it's worth it.
As far as Irv goes...he couldn't have been any better to work with. From the beginning until now he's responded to every call and email. I had so many questions and he never avoided me, even now with the car being God knows where, he's been there for me. His knowledge of the whole process is impeccable and I'm definetly going to be a repeat customer in the future. I have a friend who was interested in ED but waited until I got back to see how things went, I've allready given him Irv's info. Whoever is interested in an ED, look no further, this is your guy!
Sorry for no picture, I would've had one if my wife didn't drop the camera in a canal in Amsterdam....but the car and the experience made up for it!
I have to chime in here and add my 2 cents. Irv is absolutely top notch. I am the type of person who is a very loyal customer and reward those in any sales position with repeat business and recommendations when I'm treated well. Our entire experience with our May 2008 ED through our July Performance Center Delivery was spectacular.
But the best part is how accessible Irv is, and his continued support even after the check has cleared the bank. I was initially impressed that he not only promptly returns calls and emails, but also how personable he is. He talks to you in straight, honest, and easy to understand terms, walking the inexperienced ED customer through every step of the way.
I unfortunately ended up having a problem with my car in the form of a paint defect that was resolved by BMW with a replacement car. Irv was always right there to answer my questions and give me support, even though I am a thousand miles away. It is that kind of customer service that makes all the difference in the world. I'm sure there will be more ED's in my future, and Irv will be my CA as long as he endeavors to be in the business.
Thanks again, Irv...
Here is my intial delivery at Welt and our re-delivery in South Carolina:

Tony Bridge is a digital artist, professional photographer, photo educator, published author and one of New Zealand's leading landscape photographers. He is a graduate of Canterbury University, New Zealand, and a fellow of the New Zealand Photographic Society. He has variously been a teacher, curriculum developer for the New Zealand government and software tester. He divides his time between writing, publishing, exhibiting, commissions and workshops in New Zealand, South Africa and the North American continent.
Tony's work draws heavily upon his Maori and European heritage and his on-going studies into a broad range of spiritual and mystical traditions. He also draws heavily upon a degree in foreign languages and literature.
It seems to me, he writes, that the digital process is limited only by our imagination, our knowledge of self, and our willingness to give it free rein. For me, capture is only the beginning. It is in postproduction that I can truly recognise my vision in a form which others can share. The Tools now available enable me to move between the documentary tradition of photography and the expressive potential of mark-making with a camera and computer. I am able to make work that lives in a space between photography and painting and, in doing so, mile-mark my own journey.
The X-Pro1 is a camera I have been waiting for a very long time, one which enables me to make photographs in the purest traditions of the medium, but which makes the most of modern digital technology and which delivers professional-level quality to match a full-frame DSLR.
The X-Pro1 delivers in spades.
I have wanted a camera which offers me a variety of viewfinder options, with a bright-line system when I am working in the street to a fully customisable EVF and also a live view. Thus I can adapt my seeing to the work I want to make. In photography the viewfinder is everything and this camera has everything.
And it is perfect for all types of photography.

CRYSTALIZED MOVEMENTS : Mind Disaster
I avoided listening to Crystalized Movements for as long as possible on the assumption, quite rightly I think, that any band with a name as abysmal as that must be fucking terrible, right? As usual, Peel put things to rights. I remembering my ears instantly pricking up when he played "Rearranged" from 1988's This Wideness Comes one evening - it wasn't so much the song that grabbed my attention (though it's pleasant enough) as the hissing, spitting feedback fest it culminated in. The following afternoon I ambled into Selectadisc & found a copy of the CD (one of the first I ever owned!) for a couple of quid in the "sale" rack.
Mind Disaster is an entirely different cup of meat, however. Based in Connecticut, Crystalized Movements were originally a high school project of Wayne Rogers & classmate Ed Boyden. Sharing a love for late 60s psychedelia & 70s No Wave, the duo taped countless hours of experimental, improvised lysergic jams, eventually deciding to release a "proper" LP in 1983. Though they got as far as recording some of Rogers' songs in duo format, they graduated & drifted apart before actually releasing anything. Left to his own devices, Rogers spent the summer overloading the recordings with endless fuzzed-out guitar dubs &, liking the results, released them on his own Twisted Village label in a hamfisted, childish sleeve (130 copies only!) - marked parallels with Sandbox-era GBV/Robert Pollard here I think? Rejected by the poser-heavy Paisley Revivalist scene, Mind Disaster quickly slipped out of print & into obscurity. Or not. Rightfully pissed off by this hipster rebuke, Rogers enlisted a full band, honed his songwriting skills, practiced 'til his fingers bled & stormed back a couple of years later with Dog Tree Satellite Seers. Though probably their least sonically extreme LP, it adeptly demonstrated that Crystalized Movements were more than just another amateurish bunch of smalltown drug abusers with 3rd hand valve amps & a Cry Baby wah. Consolidating this new found acceptence with This Wideness Comes (my personal fav) & their swansong, Revelations From Pandemonium (both of which are melodic but rarely mellow), Rogers has barely paused for breath since. Pursuing a prolific solo career as well as founding Vermonster, B.O.R.B., Magic Hour (the latter with Galaxie 500's Damon & Naomi) & Major Stars, he's now recognised as an American equivalent to Brit neo-psychedelic renaissance man, Nick Salomon (The Bevis Frond).
I'm not sure where this link originated (thanks Anon.) but it sounds lovely - it's mastered (I think) from a cassette dub of an original vinyl copy of the LP with a v.fine drenching of tape hiss. Primitive = perfect.
Close Your Eyes
WALKING SEEDS : Upwind Of Disaster, Downwind Of Atonement
It's all about the stragglers. One of the last of that weird legion of forgotten 80s/90s English bands to evade redscovery, Walkingseeds' records possibly make more sense now than they did "then" - the usual case of we mere mortals requiring a decade or so's hindsight to play catch-up...
Formed from the rubble of The Mel-O-Tones, Liverpool's legendary purveyors of psychedelic bomb site grunge (& initially naming themselves The Corinthians), Walkingseeds were, from the off, enthusiastically championed by John Peel (of course) & Mark E. Smith - in fact, I first saw them live supporting The Fall on the Bend Sinister tour in 1986 (who knew MES was a Nabakov afficiando, eh?). Maintaining a longstanding relationship with Probe Records, Walking Seeds' Knew Too Much debut was a (relatively) sophisticated updating of the original Mel-O-Tones' sound, though "sophistication" possibly wasn't at the top of their agenda when they crawled into the studio to record it? A thuggy backyard amalgamation of early Iggy & The Glitter Band, it's one of those records that repeatedly fooled me into leaping up to inspect the stylus, only to find out it was supposed to sound like that! The subsequent Marque Chapmanne 12" (via their own, shortlived Moral Burro label) violently upped the fuzz/aggro levels & & ushered in the raucous Skullfuck LP, a twisted & unsettling musical pedal-bin of nasty Nuggets, Butthole Surfers & Blue Cheer influences with a cheeky Grateful Dead-derived title (inspired by Mouse & Kelly's iconic "skull & roses" sleeve). Superior records all, though their Peel sessions from the period are even better (search 'em out).
Upwind Of Disaster, Downwind Of Atonement appeared in 1989 (the band having hooked up with the much-missed Glass label in the interim). Recorded at New York's Noise studio with wayward genius Mark Kramer (Shockabilly, Bongwater, B.A.L.L., et al), Walkingseeds had obviously spent their recess concentrating on writing songs rather than merely jamming around a few borrowed, obscure riffs & the results still sound phenomenal - far more melodic than their earlier releases (though the disruption factor is still immediately evident) & often genuinely psychedelic (rather than just sounding like they'd necked a stack of drugs before recording). Songs like "Slow Dance Of Golden Lights" & "Wreck Of The White Star" share the same wistful 60's shambolism as homeboys The La's (with whom they briefly shared a guitarist or two) but none of the frustrating purist retrospection. Elsewhere, "Sexorcist", "Mad River" & "Ocean Drain" (a petulant flicked-V in the general direction of Liverpool's nostalgia-entrenched local music scene gobshites - "The Greatest Album Ever Made", my arse!) remain 3 of their finest songs. A contemporaneous Clawfist Singles Club 7" - remember them? - features The Bevis Frond covering "Sexorcist" on one side while Walkingseeds give his "Reflections In A Tall Mirror" a seering once-over on t'other - cop a listen, it's a belter. The Bevis Frond would return to produce their Sensory Deprivation Chamber Quartet "dwarf"-LP a few months later &, again, it's an absolute must-have (I'll retrieve it from The Shed one of these days, just you wait & see...). I'd not heard Upwind Of Disaster... for several years (again, my copy's stowed away in The Shed) until Anon. sent me a link for it c/o this blog a few days ago. It's a hitherto unknown (to me) CD edition with a couple of extra songs, including a snotty thrash through Blue Oyster Cult's "Transmaniacon MC" (previously visited on one of their ace Peel sets). I've hardly stopped playing it.
Walkingseeds made a few more LPs after this one, then quietly fizzled out, briefly reappearing as The Del-Bloods (one 7" on Seminal Twang) & then obscurity. The last I heard, monster guitarist Bob Parker was parodying stadium A.O.R. in Batloaf ("Meat Out Of Hell", etc). If anybody knows what crazed vocalist/affable lunatic Frank Martin's now up to please get in touch...
HARRY PUSSY : Fuck You
My last Harry Pussy post proved pretty popular so, me being Mr. Man-Of-The-People an'all that (hmmm), here's another one...
Released in 1997, several years on from their In An Emergency You Can Shit On A Peurto Rican Whore debut, this LP's officially untitled but has assumed the Fuck You (aka Tour) mantle. It's pretty scarce I think - a friend found the link on Soulseek & passed it onto me, since when I've only been able to excavate the scantest of info (even the mandatory sleeve scan has eluded me, what a sorry state of affairs). Noise-wise it's typically spectacular - the feral opener "Drop The Bomb" is a nigh-on perfect mission statement (all 16 seconds of it), though their D.Bailey-on-Salvia skronk (yes, skronk) has extended out into virtually avant garde territories by the album's close. Bits of Fuck You were compiled on Load's highly recommended You'll Never Play This Town Again compilation (a mere 42 tracks!), which you can purchase here, my dears.
You'll no doubt be aware that, since Harry P's demise, drummer/screamer extraordinaire Adris Hoyos has married The Shadow Ring's Graham Lambkin & apparently (hopefully temporarily?) given up music. Her insane Monostadt 6 CD is still well worth seeking out however (ahem!), as is her initial collaboration with Lambkin, Transmission (both debuted with eponymous releases on Betley Welcomes Careful Drivers around the same time as Fuck You). Guitarist Bill Orcutt recently re-emerged with A New Way To Pay Old Debts, a highly regarded vinyl LP of lo-fi acoustic soloing on Palilalia (500 copies, all gone). The Wire love it & bizarrely seem intent on setting him up as a 21st century Fahey - fingers crossed for a "challenging" appearance on Later... With Jools Holland semi-sharpish! Take cover, etc...
Yeah, you.
NO TREND : Inner Ear Session (Teen Love 7" + more)
I heard this last week for the first time in a long while - & it still sounded absolutely amazing. Pissed off Washington psyche punk miscreants from the mid-80s, No Trend were often compared to San Francisco's Flipper &, while I can see the parallels, I think the only thing those 2 bands genuinely had in common was a rather evident shared love for Metal Box. Oh, & repetition - snarling, dirgelike repetition. And, erm, venomous, utterly disgusted cynicism (we musn't forget the cynicism!). However, whereas Flipper were very obviously in thrall to "classic"-era Public Image Limited, No Trend also sucked on the withered teat of austere Brit-gore anarchos Discharge & Flux Of Pink Indians at their most harrowing (i.e. the screeching cacophony of The Fucking Cunts Treat Us Like Pricks LP, etc).
Teen Love was No Trend's debut 7", recorded at DC's Inner Ear (reknown as the Discord studio & then based in Don Zientara's basement, it's still in operation today) & released on their own eponymous label in 1983 (they re-released it a year later on 12", heavily remastered with a couple of extra tracks). The link I'm posting here represents that entire, initial Zientara-produced Inner Ear session & was fleetingly issued by Teenbeat in 1995 as part of their The Early Months retrospective (currently £75 on Amazon!). Most of their subsequent releases are online if you can be bothered to look: 1984's Too Many Humans is a must-hear - it's even more outraged & troublesome than their debut in places - while the following year's A Dozen Dead Roses explores as-then uncharted, caustic in-roads into a nascent, poisonous pseudo-goth sound (it includes all their Heart Of Darkness EP, recorded with & originally released by Lydia Lunch on her own Widowspeak outlet btw).
Inner Ear
An unconventional combination of high brow science fact, fiction & speculation with a prohibitive price tag, Omni was a very glossy, full colour monthly magazine published by Bob Guccione's Penthouse organisation (!) from the late 1970s onwards. Though it was way out of my financial league (I was blowing all of my meagre pocket money on 2000AD, Smash Hits & Refresher bars in those days), I was fortunate in that a rich & slightly eccentric American great uncle of mine was a subscriber & was generous enough to periodically mail me hefty packages of his unwanted back issues (at great expense too I suspect, it was a real doorstep of a mag!). Though most of the purely scientific content left me feeling slightly giddy (& probably still would tbh), it's ingenius short S.F. stories, paranormal supposition & ravishing illustrations turned my head in multiple new directions. Omni was unashamedly pretentious, but positively so.
Regrettably, now that S.F. cover art has largely retreated into conservative 1950s classicism, dominated by frivolous re-interpretations of it's archaic zapgun/rocketship pulp archetypes, the fantastical inner landscaping of Omni's visually opulent cover art seems almost kitsch by comparison. Often resembling a Max Ernst version of Tron, it's imagery was drawn from the same somnambulistic strand of pop surrealism that, for me at least, Dali's enduring The Persistence Of Memory & Ballard's Vermillion Sands never fail to invoke. I'm still secretly rather fond it, though I wouldn't rush to hang much of it on my wall you understand...

THE HUMAN LEAGUE : Peel Session 1978
Originally recorded 8th August 1978 (at BBC Maida Vale, of course), this must've been mastered from a vinyl bootleg of some sort (the In Darkness bootleg possibly?) as there are a couple of very audible skips (tres irritating, I know...) but sound quality overall is terrific. "No Time" (aka "Again The Eye Again" from Fast Product's The Human League Cassette) is actually a formative version of Reproduction's "The Word Before Last". Plug yourselves in, etc
No Time
P.S. I've actually no idea who posted this & the previous Nico session unfortunately, but many thanks anyway...
PRIMAL SCREAM : All Fall Down 7" + Peel Sessions 1985-86

I saw them live several times around the time of these inaugeral BBC recordings (supporting The Jesus & Mary Chain generally) but considered them too studiously fey & slavishly retro to be of any lasting importance. Like most folk, "Loaded" fleetingly turned my head in their direction a few years later, but it wasn't until 1997's opaque & enigmatic Vanishing Point LP that I really fell for 'em. They were an absolutely outstanding live proposition 'round that time - I caught them at Nottingham's Rock City & still consider it one of the finest gigs I've been too ever. No support act as such, just Andrew Weatherall hammering out dark-as-fuck techno dubs in a pitch black hall to a howling, loved-up 'n' boistrous mob. Then, fronted by a short haired Bobby (quite a surprise at that point!), P.S. growled at half-speed through all of their most paranoiac material, kicking off with a sullen "Out Of The Void" & rendering even the usually euphoric "Higher Than The Sun" as an unsettling bad trip mantra (& did I imagine The Third Bardot's "5 Years Ahead Of My Time" cruising by at one point?). A closing "Loaded / Movin' On Up" medley was the only obvious shaft of light & even that seemed seemed clouded with dust & narcotically unhinged. I'm sure that they performed their entire set in front of a 30 foot high screen showing a loop of divebombing Stukas but, erm, that could've been the drugs frankly (seriously, if anybody can confirm that I did actually see that please drop me a line to confirm!).
Though fully aware of P.S.'s earlier, leather kek-ed Creation/Elevation period, I was honestly never convinced that they were anything more than a McGuinn-besotted flash in the pan. On reflection, their still unissued "All Fall Down" debut wasn't a complete write-off afterall &, despite my reservations, I played their 2 Peel sessions to death at the time (I still have the cassette squirreled away somewhere). Immaculately coiffured & voluble conversationalists they might've been, but those early P.S. records consistently failed to inspire (botched production I guess, even Mayo Thompson couldn't get it right?) & by the time they'd junked Younger Than Yesterday for the first New York Dolls album, serious drugs & vulgar rock'n'roll raunch they seemed like nowt more than a clueless indie anachronism, aimlessly bumbling around from one stone dead genre to another with a perpetual "headcold". I was elsewhere listening to Sonic Youth & Big Black by that point & having the time of my life, frankly. P.S. really nailed it on these BBC-commissioned sessions though - the crystalline Maida Vale sound is gorgeous & P.S.'s performances are spot-on (compare the spirited Peel version of "Crystal Crescent" to it's lacklustre Creation counterpart for instance) . Maybe if they'd released these versions instead of the downcast Sonic Flower Groove they wouldn't have dejectedly shuffled off into that sub-Stones ditch & self-medicated themselves into virtual oblivion? But then they wouldn't have recorded Screamadelica, of course. Or, thereby, Vanishing Point. The Lord giveth & The Lord taketh away, etc...

Edwards ready to shine
Carlos Edwards believes he is back to full fitness and ready to push for a starting role at Sunderland.
By Chris Burton
Last Updated: 27/11/08 6:50pm
Carlos Edwards believes he is back to full fitness and ready to push for a starting role at Sunderland.
The winger has fallen down the Black Cats' pecking order of late, and was even farmed out on loan to Championship side Wolves in October.
However, having been recalled from that spell at Molineux, Edwards returned to action for Sunderland as a substitute in their 1-0 defeat to West Ham last weekend.
Relieved to be back on Wearside, and seemingly back in Roy Keane's thoughts, the Trinidad & Tobago international is now determined to prove his worth at the Stadium of Light over the course of the current campaign.
"I am my biggest critic and I know that I never started at the beginning of the season," said Edwards.
"Looking back at all the injuries, my sharpness was not there, my head was not right. Many things can play a part and it's up to the individual to be positive.
"The manager brought in new players, I fell back. It was a kick in the teeth and I was sent out on loan at Wolves.
"I'm now feeling that the Carlos Edwards of old is back."
The 30-year-old has warned Sunderland supporters not to expect too much from him too soon, but has faith in his ability to play a major role in the club's Premier League endeavours this season.
He added: "It's easy to sit in the stands and to expect miracles.
"I'm not going to say I will be back to my best straight away. It takes time to get back from injury, it took longer than I and the manager expected.
"But I'm back now and I'm just wanting the opportunity. It will take time, but it's good to be back in this environment now.
"It's getting my confidence. I felt like a new signing when I got back, which was strange because this has been my home. It was a relief."

Tacloban, Philippines: The mayor of this typhoon-ravaged city urged residents on Wednesday to flee to other cities and find shelter there with relatives if they could, saying that the local authorities were struggling to provide enough food and water and faced difficulties in maintaining law and order.
The appeal from Mayor Alfred S. Romualdez came as the first attempt in Tacloban to conduct a mass burial ended in failure. A police convoy of trucks carrying more than 200 rotting corpses turned back after the officers heard gunshots as they approached the city limits.
Covered with black plastic tarpaulin, the bodies were returned to a gathering place at the foot of the hill topped by City Hall, where they released a powerful odor.
Mr Romualdez said the city desperately needed trucks and drivers to distribute relief shipments of food that are piling up at the airport, as well as more trucks, heavy equipment and personnel to pull decaying corpses out of the unending mounds of debris and collapsed houses that stretch across this city.
"I have to decide at every meeting which is more important, relief goods or picking up cadavers," he said.
Mr Romualdez denied persistent rumours of gunfights among the increasingly hungry and thirsty population, saying that business owners and others were firing only warning shots.
"That's why sometimes you hear gunshots, but it is to ward off looting," he said.
He did not offer any municipal assistance to those seeking to leave the city, noting that the city had virtually no working vehicles. The local fleet of light buses and group taxis in Tacloban, a city of 220,000 before Typhoon Haiyan hit, was destroyed by the storm surge. The United States and the Philippines have been offering some seats on planes leaving after dropping off relief supplies.
Jerry Sambo Yaokasin, the second-ranking official in the municipal government, said in an interview that Philippine soldiers and police officers may be stretched too thin to provide security in Tacloban even as they try to reach other coastal communities to assess damage. He suggested that foreign forces may be needed, including to provide security for gas stations to reopen.
The true death toll from the typhoon is a mystery. The Philippine government put the official toll at 2,275. Few deaths have been confirmed in Tacloban because local officials say they are counting only bodies that they have collected or formally recorded.

Featuring: Fiona Steels
Photos: 40
"I have a small back but extra huge boobs. Even when I try to hide them, they're so big that they stand out no matter what I wear." That?s what Fiona Steels told us a few years ago about her massive gazongas. ?I get them through mail order--the only way I can get them--because I have a smaller back but two bigger boobies. I buy what I can because there isn?t much out there for someone with the size breasts I have. I suppose I could start to get my bras custom-made. I have Fantasie bras mainly, and Warners, Silhouette and Rigby & Peller. The Rigby & Peller bra is a 32GG and it doesn?t fit me anymore so I wear it round the house.? It?s been almost two years since Fiona, from Northampton, England, has posed for us. Way too long to not have her around but Fiona had taken a break from modeling. Now she?s resuming. For the first time on XL Girls, Fiona bookmarks a fuck-stick in her slickened pussy for this nut-busting photo session.

UPDATE 1-VW could agree U.S. large-car diesel emissions settlement by October - Audi exec
* Settlement for 3.0-litre engine cars in Oct-Nov - exec
* Negotiations with U.S. authorities 'going well'
* Emissions scandal has already cost VW billions (Adds executive comment, details)
By Farah Master
HONG KONG, Aug 31 (Reuters) - Volkswagen AG could reach a "final" settlement with U.S. authorities as early as October over its large-engine diesel cars found to have cheated emissions tests in a global scandal, the sales chief of its premium Audi brand said.
Dietmar Voggenreiter, head of sales and marketing worldwide for Audi, told Reuters in an interview in Hong Kong on Wednesday that negotiations related to 3.0-litre engine VW and Audi cars were progressing well.
"(We're) in really good discussions with U.S. authorities," said Voggenreiter. "Hopefully in October, latest the beginning of November, we will have the final agreement with the U.S."
The worldwide scandal, dubbed "Dieselgate", has hurt VW's reputation and business, and already cost the German carmaker billions of dollars - not including any U.S. settlement on the large-engine diesel vehicles.
The diesel emissions scandal, affecting roughly 11 million vehicles worldwide, continues to drag on VW and Audi profits, with Audi set to miss profitability targets this year and the core VW brand recording a 12 percent year-on-year drop in profit in the second quarter. Continued...

California Regulators Weigh Whether The State Needs More Power Plants
Angela Johnson Meszaros, Staff Attorney, California Regional Office, Los Angeles: "As our city struggles with the worst smog we've seen in years, we appreciate that LADWP is taking some much-needed time to reassess its plans to build fossil fuel power plants. We look forward to the day that LADWP announces that we are going to power our city with 100% clean energy."

The mainland is bracing for power cuts this summer, although they are likely to be less severe than last year, when 24 provinces and municipalities were affected, a senior official says.
The shortfall during the peak season, beginning next month, is projected at 25 gigawatts, slightly less than last year's figure.
Shi Yubo, of the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, said an increase in generating capacity of about 65gW planned for this year would not provide relief over the summer because most of it was not scheduled to come on stream until the second half of the year.
The expansion would push the country's total generating capacity to 505gW, against 2,422 terawatt-hours of total electricity consumption - up 12 per cent on last year.
Apart from the northeastern provinces, all other power grid areas face shortfalls. In the east, it has been estimated at 12gW, and in the south at 8gW.
Mr Shi said the weather could make a significant difference to power consumption and supply.
With urban areas becoming more affluent, the use of air conditioners accounts for up 30 per cent of electricity consumption in Beijing, and as much as 40 per cent in Shanghai and Guangzhou.
The amount of water available for hydroelectric generation also depends heavily on the weather.
In Beijing, which relies on supplies from local power plants and electricity purchased from Shanxi , the northeast and Inner Mongolia , a deficit of 0.7gW has been projected for this summer.
Mr Shi said that if the weather turned out to be neither too hot nor too humid, the capital would probably be spared widespread blackouts.
The commission has used price rises in a bid to curb the expansion of industries that consume high levels of power, while keeping a lid on rates for farmers, and small- and medium-sized fertiliser plants.
Mr Shi said that the mainland's power grid system, operating without any reserve capacity and with no downtime for maintenance, was vulnerable to technical breakdowns.
Typhoons, heavy rain and criminal activities could also disrupt power supplies, and the authorities were stepping up control and prevention measures.

Q about root
I have a simple question that I cannot find on your site: Do you need to
be root install and use the binary packages? (I recognize that you do
for pkgadd).
For example, at my university, they don't offer Subversion, however I'd
like to use it. Root is not an option for my case. My user account size
is too small to compile svn from source, so I can only download the
binary to install to ~/local/bin.
(You may want to add the "Do you need root" to the FAQ.)

Not every estate needs to go through a formal probate. Estates under $100,000.00 can be handled by use of an affidavit. Additionally, any assets that are jointly titled or have beneficiary designations pass according to those terms. Your sister's probate estate consists of everything else; so it is possible that you won't even have to go through a probate administration.
Lastly, the Probate code provides statutory authority for priority re. who will be the administrator of your sister's estate.
I am not sure what your reference to Title 1 or Title 5 means.

He will most likely be awarded some visitation. A likely scenario would be a plan that starts out with a little visitation and gradually increases over time to give him a greater time share with your daughter. Without knowing more detail about your particular situation, it is hard to predict. Courts in this situation are going to look at what is best for your daughter.
It is very possible that he will get joint legal custody (the ability to join in all the decisions that affect how your daughter will be raised), however judges are human, and their preferences vary widely from courtroom to courtroom. The fact that he has been absent from your daughter's life works against him.
Good luck. Please contact an attorney and arrange for a consultation to get a more in-depth answer to your concerns.

Chennai, Feb 16: Australia skipper Michael Clarke and opener David Warner, recovering from injuries are not playing the second practice match at Chennai.
Having skipped the warm-up matches, Clarke and Warner would be going into the Test series without match practice. When asked about the reason for missing the warm-up match, Australian skipper said the duo would work off the field to stay fit for the first Test against India starting Feb 22 in Chennai.
"The reason for skipping this game is that David Warner and I were injured prior to coming here and it's in the best interests of the team and us as individuals that we continue to do our work off the field. We're going to use these three days to make sure we are prepared for the first day of the Test match," said Clarke on Friday.
Talking to reporters on the eve of the second warm-up match, Clarke said that "I do have a team for the match: Cowan, Watson, Hughes, Khawaja, Henriques, Wade, Siddle, Starc, Lyon, Doherty and Agar," suggesting that he would not be playing the warm-up match.

All Shall Be Well; And All Shall Be Well; And All Manner of Things Shall Be Well - A Novel
- United States
- Fiction
- English
More informationMeet Burt Hecker: a mead-drinking, tunic-wearing medieval re-enactor from upstate New York. He prefers oat gruel to French fries because potatoes were unavailable in Europe before 1200 AD; and, at war with the modern world, he enjoys hosting large-scale re-enactments at the Victorian bed and breakfast he calls home.
But Burt has some serious problems. After an incident involving the New York State police and an illegally borrowed car, Burt is forced to join a local music therapy workshop to manage his anger. He gallantly accompanies the group to Germany for a festival celebrating the music of the visionary saint Hildegard von Bingen--but he has no plan to return home. His real destination is Prague: he must find his estranged son Tristan, who, he believes, has lost his way in the Bohemian city.
As we move between past and present, the tragic details of Burt's life are gradually revealed: the recent death of his beloved wife; the circumstances that separate him from his children; his complicated relationship with his mother-in-law. And we begin to understand, with heart-wrenching clarity, Burt's eccentric and poignant devotion to a time other than one's own.
Wildly inventive and mesmerizing, Tod Wodicka's debut is a modern-day Arthurian quest that introduces one of the most winning oddball characters to come along in years.

Where Do AQP4 Antibodies Fit in the Pathogenesis of NMO?
Department of Neurology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, D4, 2-2 Yamadaoka, Suita, Osaka 565-0871, Japan

Recent advances in the field of neuromyelitis optica (NMO) research provided convincing evidence that anti-AQP4 antibody (AQP4-Ab) not only serves as a highly specific disease marker, but also plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of the disease. Although it is now widely recognized that AQP4-Ab induces astrocytic necrosis in a complement-dependent manner, additional triggers are also suspected as a prerequisite for the development of the disease. Unraveling these unresolved aspects of the disease will provide substantial insight into still controversial issues in the pathogenesis of NMO.

Health advisory issued for several Hillsborough beaches
HILLSBOROUGH, Fla. (970 WFLA) – Hillsborough County health officials said a health advisory has been issued for the following beaches: Ben T. Davis, Cypress Point, Davis Island, and Picnic Island based on the criteria for enterococci bacteria recommended by the EPA.
Officials said this should be considered a potential risk to the bathing public. Samples taken Monday were above threshold for enterococci bacteria, officials said, and the beach will be re-sampled, Monday, April 21, 2014.
When re-sampling indicates that the water is within the satisfactory range, the advisory will be lifted.
