Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
How can I protect myself if the person who is giving up the dog is doing so without the permission of a co/owner unbeknownst to me? I have no reason to suspect that this is the situation, but I don't want to take possession of potentially stolen property. What if it's a third party's dog that he is passing off as his own?
My intention is to have the dog fixed. If a someone comes forward as a rightful owner after I've had the dog neutered, can I be held liable for damages, such as loss of income from the dog not being able to sire a litter? Is good faith, a verbal agreement and a handshake good enough?
Since you're asking, you must have some nagging suspicion that a handshake deal might not be good enough. If so, you may memorialize your agreement with something in writing. People in your position sometimes will ask a seller to represent in writing and/or prove to you that he has title to the dog and authority to convey it. They may ask that the seller agree to indemnify them against any future claims from alleged owners or co-owners. You could have a discussion with a qualified NJ attorney to prepare an appropriate document.Ask a similar question

This issue is a follow on to the recently closed issue #619290: Make Conditional Fields compatible with Content Profile module. That issue's fix put in code to get the conditional fields node form function to fire off in the case of the user_register form. The problem that I ran into (and it was a real head scratcher) was where you had two content profiles used on the registration form. The site's organization registers users from different use cases. One being a participant and one for volunteers. We set up a general profile that holds contact info and other general stuff while the participant and volunteer profiles hold the things specific to their context. We are using the autoassignrole module in conjunction with content_profile to control which profiles show up on a registration form based on the path from which they enter the form. (So /participant/register gets profile + participant and /volunteer/register gets profile + volunteer.)
The trouble comes in with the conditional_fields_node_after_build function.
function conditional_fields_node_after_build($form, &$form_state) {
// Avoid running twice when the form is rebuilt with AHAH
if (!empty($form_state['clicked_button']['#ahah'])) {
return $form;
$type_name = $form['type']['#value'];
// Do nothing if there are no conditional fields
if (!$data = conditional_fields_load_data($type_name)) {
return $form;
The $form['type']['#value'] data coming into the function holds only one content profile's type name. What had thrown me for a loop was that with the participant profile the conditional fields were working perfectly, but the volunteer were not getting picked up. Turns out that $form['type']['#value'] holds the first content profile type alphabetically. so participant was before profile, but volunteer was after. It got to the "if (!$data = " test and exited.
I put in a local hack to make it work for me, but we should find better general solution. My hack:
if ($type_name == 'profile') $type_name = 'volunteer';
My hack is definitely not a good fix for anyone else as is, but I thought I would raise the issue in case others have a similar situation.

I think it may be easier to never use more than one content type associated to a content profile. You could just use conditional fields in that single user profile to distinguish between your use cases (participant or volunteer).

Crazy Mom Covered in 'One Direction' Tattoos [PHOTO]
There's no arguing that Jayne Bailey, 47, is a little older than the typical One Direction fan, but that doesn't stop the superman Mom for VERY PUBLICLY displaying her love for the band.
Bailey has 20 TATTOOS dedicated to the boys of 1D! Many of her body art dedications are exact replicas of Harry Styles' tattoos. She also had all of their signatures etched into her fore arm.
She definitely wins the award for oldest and biggest fan!
Would you be embarrassed if this is your Mom?

The NSW government was notified eight months ago of an incident where a fisherman was swept off rocks and died after the Ambulance Service of NSW did not notify local lifesavers, Labor MP Michael Daley says.
The revelation comes after another fisherman was swept off the rocks at Little Bay, Maroubra, on Sunday. He struggled in the water for 15 minutes and then died. The NSW Ambulance Service failed to notify nearby lifesavers.
It was "negligence of the highest order" that the Health Minister, Jillian Skinner, had not acted to change the laws eight months ago, said Mr Daley, who is the local member for Maroubra.
Mrs Skinner has ordered an immediate overhaul of the way the Ambulance Service deals with potential rescues.
She has also asked State Emergency Management Committee chair Phil Koperberg to oversee the implementation of new emergency response protocols for inshore water rescues.
Mr Koperberg will report back to the government by the end of the month on the "appropriateness, effectiveness and implementation of the new response protocols", she said.
"People want to know that if a life is at risk, help is there as fast as possible and this is what this new protocol is designed to do," Mrs Skinner said.
In the Little Bay incident, the man and two friends had been fishing together when a large wave washed them into the water.
Mr Daley said the 39-year-old Warrawee man struggled in the water for 15 minutes before losing consciousness, and eventually he was washed back onto the rocks.
Mr Daley said a golfer saw him in the ocean and phoned triple-O but it was only after 35 minutes that the helicopter arrived, he said, despite lifesavers being on duty at Maroubra South and Maroubra beaches only one kilometre away.
Randwick City lifesavers also could have been at the scene in five minutes and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter was available.
On Wednesday, Mrs Skinner said she had instructed the Ambulance Service that from now on, any time a person was in the water they would immediately be designated a rescue, and NSW police notified. Police would then decide which agency should respond.
Mrs Skinner told Fairfax Media she had directed the acting chief executive of the ambulance service to raise the new protocol with the chair of the State Rescue Board.
A spokeswoman for the Ambulance Service said a report of a person in the water on its own was not identified by the service as requiring rescue co-ordination. Both she and Mrs Skinner said they could not comment on the recent case as a report was being prepared for the coroner.
But Mr Daley said another man had died in similar circumstances in January, and in March he had asked Mrs Skinner in Parliament why the surf lifesaving number was not called in that case.
She responded that it was the responsibility of the police, not the Ambulance Service, to call surf lifesaving "for incidents involving a person in the water".
At the time she said NSW police had notified the Ambulance Service that they were in attendance at this incident shortly after the triple-O call was received.
Emergency Services Minister Michael Gallacher said he had written to the Coroner to request an inquiry into the circumstances surrounding the current tragedy.
"The people of NSW have invested tens of millions of dollars in giving our emergency services the capability to deal with rescues when the call for help goes out," he said. "This is about ensuring there are no weak links in our emergency services chain."

Five people were killed Saturday night when an SUV being pursued by U.S. Border Patrol agents crashed east of Tucson, officials said.
The rollover wreck happened around 11 p.m. on Interstate 10 and Arizona 83, the Department of Public Safety said.
The vehicle had 20 people on board and was being pursued by the Border Patrol, said Chief Willie Treatch, of Rural/Metro Fire Department. DPS officials also characterized it as a pursuit.
Five people were declared dead at the scene and 15 were taken to Tucson hospitals with minor to serious injuries, DPS said. The deceased included one man from Mexico and four men from Guatemala, said Oscar de la Torre, the Mexican consul in Douglas.
"We are working with the Mexican consulate in Tucson and U.S. authorities to learn more about the incident," he said.
Officials from the Border Patrol did not respond to queries.

According to ESPN's Marc Stein, the Nets, Boston Celtics, and Cleveland Cavaliers are close to an agreement on a trade that would send PG Jarrett Jack and forward and 2013 first round pick Sergey Kerasev from the Cavs to Brooklyn.
The Celtics would receive Marcus Thornton from the Nets, along with Tyler Zeller and a 2016 first round pick from Cleveland. The Cavs, who have been trying to clear as much cap space as possible in order to make a run at bringing LeBron James back to Ohio, will likely receive a future second round pick in the deal. Dealing Jack, who is due to earn $6.3 million in each of the next two seasons (with a team option for the same amount in 2016-17) plus Zeller, Kerasev and a pick frees up approximately $20 million for the Cavs.
Reports surfaced Monday that the Nets had agreed on a trade for Jack and that the Cavs were searching for a third team to take on Thornton and his $8.5 million salary for 2014-15 (which is the final year of a four-year contract he signed with the Kings back in 2011).
More to come later today on the new members of the Nets.Tags: Basketball, Brooklyn, Brooklyn Nets, NBA

The widely quoted 85% high school graduation rate is misleading, argues Christopher B. Swanson of the Urban Institute's Education Policy Center, who believes the true rate is closer to 68% for public schools and 50% for minorities. (Education Week, 7-28-04) The 85% estimate by the Census Bureau counts GEDs and overlooks persons who live in prisons and other institutions. Accounting properly for dropouts is difficult.
Non-citizen parents seek voting rights in school elections. Any parent in Chicago may vote in local school elections as long as they have a child in one of the schools. A bill introduced in July in Washington, D.C. would allow permanent residents to vote for members of the school board, city council and mayor. San Francisco's board of supervisors voted in July to put an amendment on the November ballot to allow any parent with a child in public schools to vote in school board elections. That measure could require an amendment to the California state constitution. Immigrant communities are split over whether to extend voting rights to non-citizens. (Wall Street Journal, 9-14-04)

Gainesville, Fla. » Just when it seemed Utah's gymnastics team had tamed the balance beam, it shook the Utes off like an ornery bronco that was just waiting for them to let down their guard. It stomped their hopes of an NCAA Championship in the dust for good measure.
The Utes knew they had to be perfect Friday to have any shot of winning their first crown since 1995. Instead they slipped from that goal, suffering two falls and a major break on the balance beam.
The mistakes left the Utes (19-10) in sixth place with a 196.225 while UCLA won the title with a 197.725.
The finish was the Utes' lowest since they were sixth in 2004. Since then the Utes have finished third twice and second three times.
"We were just on fire on bars, I couldn't have been more pleased," Utah coach Greg Marsden said. "Then we went to beam and rushed things. They were just rushing things and trying too hard, which is what we've been known to do on that event."
Chances are the Utes wouldn't have won anyway because they were in third after the first rotation despite a very respectable 49.3 on the uneven bars with every gymnast scoring 9.8 or higher.
The effort simply wasn't good enough to match the fireworks UCLA was setting off on the vault, and Oklahoma's effort on the floor.
The Bruins started with a 49.475 on the vault and the Sooners, making their first appearance in the Super Six, started with a 49.425 on the floor. Alabama, Stanford and host Florida all had small breaks that put them behind the three leaders.
The Utes' solid opening left them with a strong chance of finishing among the top three, which would have been a satisfying accomplishment given the inconsistent season the Utes have experienced, but the balance beam wiped out that hope.
"That is gymnastics," senior Annie DiLuzio said. "Yesterday there were falls and tonight there were falls. It was really hard but it was good to have a bye right after beam for us to get back up. Nobody thought we'd be at nationals anyway and we wanted to just enjoy the moment and the team."
If there was any positive to take from the Utes' effort Friday, it is that they didn't let the poor performance on the balance beam ruin their other events. The Utes posted a 49.225 on the floor and finished with a 49.275 on the vault.
"I couldn't be more proud of the team and the way they came back and finished the meet," Marsden said. "It was a difficult situation, we were disappointed, but I'm glad we had the bye to gather ourselves and come back out and finish it off like Utes."
While the Utes were struggling to a bittersweet ending, the Bruins continued their tear through the competition to claim their first title since 2004. The Bruins have failed to qualify for the Super Six the last two years.
Prior to Friday's competition, UCLA coach Valorie Kondos Field talked about the Bruins' efforts to be among the elite again as a "hard road," but they made their path to the title look easy and smooth Friday.
The Bruins never trailed, never suffered any breaks and never showed any of the nerves that their competitors did.
Kondos Field said her team's goal from the start of the season was to not have any regrets, and they maintained that focus through the year and through the final night.
"This championship means a lot more to me than the other five did because the other five came in one quick succession, it was basically one team," Kondos Field said. "To go down and literally build back up was very rewarding as a coach."
Florida, the host team, seemed to crumple under the pressure of competing at home and suffered several mistakes and was never in the race for the title after the first rotation.
"All season long they weren't bothered by pressure at all, and this weekend they had a different look on their faces," Florida coach Rhonda Faehn said. "They were uptight and that pressure got to them."
Not-so-super sixth
In short » The Utes have a chance at a podium spot, but mistakes on the balance beam drop them out of the running.
Key moment » Daria Bijak and Jamie Deetscreek suffer back-to-back falls on the beam to force the Utes to count a low score.
Key stat » Utah goes from having the highest balance beam score in the afternoon preliminaries (49.25) to the lowest team score Friday.
|Team total
|High scorer
|Uneven bars
|Daria Bijak, 9.9

|Kyndal Robarts, 9.9

Duquesne puts finishing touches on little league fields on Polish Hill
Duquesne's public works department is putting finishing touches on Little League fields on Polish Hill.
Council members Eugene Capristo and June Wilson reported on the project's status during Wednesday's meeting. Capristo said 18 tons of loam were spread on the field, and Wilson spoke about the field getting more use.
The Hawks Baseball Organization plans to use the field for practice and fall tournaments. The group agreed to maintain the field throughout the year, Wilson reported.
"The city is very excited about this partnership," she said. "It could lead to further expansion."
The city's building inspector Donald McCrimmon said extensive work was needed to ready the field for the incoming league.
"It was left in complete disrepair by the previous organization," McCrimmon said.
In other business, council approved the addition of 15 properties in the third and fourth districts of Duquesne's First Ward to a condemnation/demolition list. Solicitor Patricia McGrail said official notification will be sent to the property owners, who will have 30 days to appeal.
"We're cleaning up a neighborhood," city manager Frank Piccolino said. "That's a neighborhood with a lot of vacant homes."
From the 2014 community development budget, council approved a $35,000 finalized demolition plan for structures at 220 Auriles, 908 Orchard, 709 Catherine, 18 N. Fifth, 707 Catherine and 110 Doney streets.
Also in the budget is a $90,800 street reconstruction allotment for work on West Grant Avenue, Hamilton Avenue and Monterrey Street.

Hey Perth! I'm bringing the circus – my One Design exhibition – to meet the family in my birthplace. It's gonna be huge! (Actually, it's going to be as big as it was in Sydney and Melbourne, but believe me, that's quite big enough )
We're having the opening celebration at Contemporary Metal, Unit 4, 77-79 Howe St, Osborne Park from 6:30pm on Friday the 7th of November. Please come down!
One Design, you say? Don't know what I'm talking about? (How could you have missed it – it's all I've been talking about for MONTHS!) Check out the video I made to support the show for an explanation.
I've packed it up and brought it over with me after finishing last weekend's Pop-Up edition of the show at Northcity4 in Melbourne and I'm now looking forward to setting it up in a bigger space with some plinths made for me by my Perth installation assistant Justine. It's going to be a different experience and I'm really excited about tailoring it to the new space, and then teaching the accompanying workshop for the first time too.
It's going to be a big weekend of jewellery and it all starts with a party on Friday night. I hope to see you…

Prior to the May 2005 Click It or Ticket (CIOT) mobilization, the six States in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's Great Lakes Region (GLR) implemented a Rural Demonstration Program (RDP) to increase seat belt usage in rural areas. Paid advertising, designed to alert rural residents that seat belt laws were being enforced, was a key component of the rural targeted effort. During this phase, three States (Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio), intensified their enforcement but, the remaining three States (Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin), only implemented the paid media. All six States then implemented a second wave of paid media, along with intensified enforcement during CIOT. All six States conducted telephone, motorist, and observational surveys to monitor statewide and rural changes in awareness and seat belt usage.
Four States targeted reasonably large rural segments of their populations, while two States targeted much smaller segments. Media expenditures averaged $212,000 per State during the RDP phase and $516,000 per State during CIOT, but per capita expenditures in targeted areas were highest during the RDP. About two-thirds of the media funds were spent on television, with much less spent on radio, newspapers, and outdoor advertising. Gross rating points far exceeded the objective of 300 to 400 GRPs per target market. While only half the States intensified enforcement during the RDP, all States did so during CIOT. Overall, about 130,000 citations for seat belt violations were issued over the two phases of the program, an average of 25 citations per 10,000 residents.
In rural targeted areas, awareness of seat belt messages increased most during the RDP, while awareness of enforcement-related messages and activities increased most during CIOT. During the RDP, awareness in rural targeted areas increased relative to statewide levels. By the end of the mobilization, however, rural and statewide awareness levels were similar on nearly every index.
Belt Use
During the RDP, States that had intensified enforcement experienced significant increases in usage in their rural targeted areas. During CIOT, when all States intensified enforcement, five of the six States experienced significant increases in rural targeted areas. While all States experienced significant increases in usage by the end of the mobilization, only the three States that intensified enforcement during the RDP showed increases in rural targeted areas that were greater than statewide increases.
The following figure shows a median 7-point increase in usage in rural targeted areas, compared with a median 5-point statewide increase. There were substantial differences between States that intensified enforcement during the RDP and States that did not. Specifically, there was a 9-point median increase in the targeted areas of the three RDP-enforcement States, compared with a 3-point increase in the non-enforcement States. Thus, the rural estimates of change in the three enforcement States were considerably greater than the statewide estimates, indicating that two waves of enforcement (i.e., RDP
Overall Change in Seat Belt Usage
*Enforcement during RDP media period
The following table contains median usage rates and changes for multiple subgroups included in the observational surveys. The far right column indicates how many States contributed data relating to each subgroup. Overall, this table shows that there were substantial differences in the usage rates of males versus females, younger versus older occupants, and occupants in pickups versus other vehicles. With regard to change, the largest changes occurred during CIOT.
Results of Observational Surveys in Rural Targeted Areas
In summary, the addition of enforcement to paid media during the RDP appears to have added to the impact of the overall mobilization in those areas. Generally, usage did not increase unless enforcement was present and two waves of enforcement appeared to be more effective than one wave.

Yes, Gelman's criticism is right on the money, and John Nugent's Tufte-analysis evisceration of the first graph, near the top of the comments, is a thing of beauty. In my dreams I write like that.

Compare the best resume writing services for construction
Thank you for taking the time to view our free sample resume. We hope it has been helpful for you.
To get a job in the highly competitive field of plumbing, you will need every possible advantage. Unprecedented amounts of resumes, thousands of them, are being sent to each job vacancy posted online. Obtaining great interviews, and therefore great jobs, can still be easy if your documents outshine the other resumes.
Copying the content or style from plumber resume samples displayed on various web sites may be easy for your own resume development, but it isn't smart. Copying and pasting from an existing sample resume is not an easy fix for resume development, nor is it a smart strategy. Think about it, if you can easily find this sample resume in a search engine, then it's a popular resume example. If you don't already know, search engines list resume examples that get the most traffic on the top for popular search requests. So, if you duplicate the text and formatting of the popular resume example, so will hundreds of others. These samples are also very well known to employers, who have already seen these words, templates, formats, and resume examples.
You'll find that resume examples are a great way to judge the skill sets of prospective resume writers. You can easily tell if the resume writing service knows their way around the plumbing industry by viewing their sample resumes. Do the resume writers demonstrate proficiency in keyword use for plumber resumes? Did the resume writer develop a convincing document with a clear objective? Do they depend on bland templates or do they use striking and customized formats? Did they display strong plumbing cover letter examples? If not, did they demonstrate quality cover letter writing for other industries?
If you are a skilled plumber, and you are planning to write your own resume to compete in a dynamic job market, then work with resume examples with extreme care. If you truly have to copy popular concepts and content, then try to work from as many resume examples as possible. Then rewrite the text as needed to make it truly unique. It's a horrible feeling to get caught using the same content from a well-known resume sample that all industry hiring managers know word-for-word. And do what you can to jazz up the format in a way that makes your resume a stand-out. Otherwise, scrutinize plumbing resume examples to determine the quality of resume writing services. If you do find a writer service that claims to have advanced expertise in drafting plumbing resumes, then you need to do your due diligence.
Scrutinize the web site to see if the service offers articles / tips for plumbers. Do they demonstrate a clear knowledge of plumbing keywords? What other products do they sell to plumbing professionals? How good are they at developing cover letters?
Do they use standard cover letter templates? Are their "expert" resume writers even certified? Were the writers who developed the resume examples credentialed through a respected organization? Do the writers specifically focus on the needs of master plumbers? Is the writer anywhere near as objective and critical of their own writing as plumbing employers? Do the writers ban the use of templates and provide examples that are competitive in the current plumbing job market? If the resume service offers great resources on their web site, as well as extraordinary plumbing resume examples, then you should call them.
Notable Keywords: plumber cover letter examples, CV examples, curricula vitae examples, curriculum vitaes, plumber CVs.

Australia's largest banks are taking advantage of an easing in Europe's sovereign debt crisis that helped drive yield premiums on the nation's financial bonds to the lowest in more than three months.
Westpac sold $2 billion of five-year notes on March 6, paying 20 basis points less than a similar-maturity offering by National Australia Bank last month, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Australian banks have boosted unsecured debt sales to $US20.5 billion this year, up 23 per cent from the same period of 2011, the data show.
Borrowing costs are falling as European leaders make progress toward solving the region's fiscal crisis and after higher-than-expected relative yields on covered bonds roiled the market for unsecured financial debt. The extra yield investors demand to own Australian dollar bank bonds instead of government securities declined 41 basis points this year to 267 basis points on March 5, the lowest since November, Bank of America Merrill Lynch indexes show.
Spreads on bank debt globally narrowed 98 basis points to 270 in the same period.
"The banks have taken advantage of a window that opened over the past few days," said Gus Medeiros, a senior credit analyst at Deutsche Bank. "The market is open for issuers with solid credit profiles and while pricing of funding is certainly higher than for most of 2011, prices have come down compared to levels earlier this year."
The narrowing yields come as the ANZ bank prepares to reveal its interest rates tomorrow. The bank has set its lending rates each month this year independently of the Reserve Bank, including last month's decision to raise rates by 6 basis points even as the central bank stayed put.
Record yield premium
Commonwealth Bank paid what was then a record yield premium in its debut domestic offering of covered bonds on Jan. 17 as Europe's sovereign crisis caused funding costs to surge.
The nation's biggest lender sold $3.5 billion of the securities at 175 basis points more than swap rates. That was the highest spread paid to investors by one of Australia's top four banks on benchmark domestic senior bonds in data compiled by Bloomberg since 1991.
National Australia Bank sold $1.5 billion of five-year unsecured securities on Feb. 8, paying a 185 basis-point spread, Bloomberg data show. Relative yields on the Melbourne-based bank's 6 percent bonds narrowed to 154.5 basis points yesterday, according to ANZ prices.
Westpac priced its February 2017 senior unsecured bonds to yield 165 basis points more than swap rates, according to an e-mailed statement.
European leaders signed a deficit-control treaty on March 2 to increase fiscal discipline and investors are waiting to see how many of Greece's private creditors agree to write down their sovereign-debt holdings.
Funding needs
Australian banks need to raise $227 billion from debt markets over the next three years, down from $390 billion in the past three, according to Royal Bank of Scotland research published this week.
The wholesale funding burden is easing as demand for loans such as mortgages grew 5.3 percent in January from a year earlier, the smallest annual gain since the central bank began recording the data in 1977. The nation's household savings ratio was 9 percent in the three months through December, a report showed yesterday.
The Reserve Bank held its benchmark interest rate at 4.25 percent for a second month this week, while noting it has scope to lower borrowing costs as Europe remains a potential source of shocks "for some time yet."
The nation's economy expanded at half the pace economists forecast last quarter as a housing slump deterred consumer spending, sending bond yields falling and the local currency to a six-week low.
Growth slows
Fourth-quarter gross domestic product advanced 0.4 percent from the previous three months, a Bureau of Statistics report released in Sydney yesterday showed. The result compared with the median of 25 estimates in a Bloomberg News survey for a 0.8 percent gain. Australian employers unexpectedly cut workers in February for the third time in four months, pushing the jobless rate to 5.2 percent from 5.1 percent, a report showed today.
The Aussie dollar, the world's fifth-most traded currency, fell after yesterday's GDP report to as low as $1.0509, the weakest level since Jan. 25, and was at $1.0563 at 11:43 a.m. in Sydney. The benchmark 10-year government bond yield fell five basis points to 3.96 percent yesterday and was at 3.93 percent today.
Commonwealth Bank, National Australia, ANZ Bank and Westpac, which together control more than 80 percent of the nation's home-loans market, have cited Europe's debt turmoil for driving up funding costs since the middle of 2011.
The banking environment has become "significantly more challenging following the first phase of the global financial crisis," ANZ Bank Chief Executive Officer Mike Smith said Feb. 17. "Bank funding costs are continuing to rise as the deepening economic and financial crisis in Europe causes dislocation and volatility in global markets."
Slimmer margin
National Australia Bank's CEO Cameron Clyne reported earnings that were buffeted by lower lending margins on Feb. 7. The bank's net interest margin, a measure of the profitability of its lending business, narrowed in the three months ended Dec. 31 to 2.19 percent from 2.28 percent in the half-year to Sept. 30.
While the RBA left benchmark lending rates unchanged at the start of February, Commonwealth Bank increased the interest on a variable rate home loan by 10 basis points to 7.41 percent, followed by National Australia, which added 9 basis points to 7.31 percent.
Westpac boosted the cost by 10 basis points to 7.46 percent and ANZ Bank added 6 basis points to 7.36 percent. Treasurer Wayne Swan condemned the actions, urging customers to switch lenders. ANZ Bank is due to review its borrowing costs tomorrow.
Funding pressures
Bond sales this month suggest funding pressures have eased. Senior unsecured debt is now being issued about 40 basis points cheaper than at the start of the year, Deutsche's Medeiros said.
Commonwealth Bank sold $2 billion of three-year senior unsecured notes at a 155 basis-point spread to Treasuries on March 5, Bloomberg data show.
Funding costs have been "more than usually challenging" since the start of October for Australia's biggest banks, said James Ellis, an analyst at Credit Suisse Group AG. "So to the extent that conditions have improved you can understand that banks want to take advantage of that."

Gordon Apologizes to Fans, Teammates
(Cleveland) - The NFL is suspending the Browns Josh Gordon for one season.
Gordon can apply for reinstatement following the 2014/2015 season.
On May 9, 2014, reports surfaced that Gordon could be suspended for the entire 2014 season because of a 2nd failed drug test.
On July 5, 2014, Gordon was arrested for driving while impaired in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Despite being very talented, Josh Gordon has a somewhat troubled football history.
Gordon accepted an athletic scholarship to play football for Baylor University. However in October 2010, during his sophomore year, he and teammate Willie Jefferson were found asleep at a local Taco Bell.
Police found marijuana in Jefferson's car. Jefferson, who was driving, was kicked off the team due to it being his second violation, but Gordon was only suspended.
In July 2011, Gordon was suspended indefinitely by head coach Art Briles, for later failing a drug test and testing positive for marijuana.
In August 2011, Gordon transferred to Utah, where he sat out the 2011 season declaring too late for the 2011 Supplemental Draft. He was taken in the second round of the 2012 Supplementary Draft by the Cleveland Browns.
On July 16, 2012, Gordon signed a 4 year, $5.3 million deal with the Browns.
Gordon finished among the top rookie receivers in the 2012 draft class, with 50 catches, for 805 yards, and 5 touchdowns.
Gordon scored his first career touchdown against the New York Giants, where he finished the game with 2 catches for 82 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Gordon achieved his first 100 yard game against the Oakland Raiders in week 13, where he finished with 6 catches for 116 yards and 1 touchdown. He had a career high of 8 catches against the Kansas City Chiefs in week 14.
On June 7, 2013, the NFL announced that Gordon would be suspended for the first two games of the 2013 season due to violating the NFL's substance-abuse policy.
During week 12, Gordon had 237 receiving yards and in week 13, 261 yards. It marked the second time in NFL history a wide receiver had consecutive 200-yard receiving games, and first time in the regular season.
On December 27, 2013, Josh Gordon was voted to his first Pro Bowl Selection.
Gordon finished the 2013 season as the NFL's leader in receiving yards, with 1,646 yards and was named First-Team All-Pro alongside Calvin Johnson of the Detroit Lions.
His one season suspension upheld by the NFL, Browns' WR Josh Gordon has issued a statement apologizing to his teammates and Browns' fans.
"I'd like to apologize to my teammates, coaches, the Cleveland Browns organization and our fans. I am very disappointed that the NFL and its hearing officer didn't exercise better discretion and judgment in my case. I would like to sincerely thank the people who have been incredibly supportive of me during this challenging time, including my family, my agent, my union, my legal team, and the Cleveland Browns staff."
-- Josh Gordon

Israeli Terror Victims Arrive Home from Bulgaria (INN) ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS) By Chana Ya´ar 07/19/12)
Source: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/158034#.UAjd3WFo2uk
INN} ISRAEL NATIONAL NEWS Articles-Index-Top
The wounded victims of Wednesday´s suicide terrorist attack at a Bulgarian airport have arrived home in Israel, with 32 of the wounded victims touching down in an IAF Hercules military transport aircraft at Ben-Gurion International Airport. Among them was Israeli Nurit Harush, photographed by Reuters as she was pushed in a stretcher by medics after her arrival.
Three others who were critically injured have remained in a hospital in Sofia, but will later be flown to Israel.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu´s office issued a statement thanking Prof. Gabriel Barbash, Director-General of the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center, who is in Bulgaria and who was involved in organizing treatment and transport of the terror victims.
Netanyahu and Barbash were in contact Thursday morning to discuss logistics and other issues regarding the victims.
Israeli paramedics interviewed on Army Radio said that some victims waited for hours in the airport and refused all treatment not because it was not offered, but rather because they refused to allow anyone other than another Israeli to touch them.
One of the ZAKA workers said personnel were working under very difficult conditions. The targeted tour bus was described as completely incinerated, a second one parked nearby as "mostly burnt." The atmosphere in which the recovery teams are working is, he said, "capricious.
The authorities are not allowing us free access to the bodies that we are trying to identify, he said. We get a few minutes at a time, and then we are sent out. Then we can go in, and a few minutes later we are suddenly sent out again.
By law, we cannot take the bodies out of the country until definite identification is made, which makes matters more complicated.
Six people were killed in the attack, including five Israelis and one Bulgarian national. Israeli citizen Yitzhak Shriki was photographed by Reuters while searching for his wife and talking with medics outside a hospital in Burgas, a city about 400 km (248 miles) east of Sofia.
The suicide bomber who committed the attack entered the country on a U.S. passport that was allegedly falsified, authorities said. Israel has accused Iranian-backed Hizbullah terrorists of carrying out the attack, and has vowed to retaliate. (IsraelNationalNews © 2011 07/19/12)

At over 50,000 Square Feet, the Aquatics Center will feature three pools including the pool used at the 2008 U.S. Olympic Trials in Omaha, NE where some of our country's best swimmers set many national records. This 50-meter eight-lane competition pool with moveable bulkheads will be the cornerstone of the center. Aquatics Center patrons will also have access to a therapy pool and a 25-yard warm water pool available for lessons and other water sports. A vast 7,000 square foot mezzanine grandstand will seat up to 700 spectators.
Construction of the Aquatics center is expected to take ten months. The facility will boast a community room, an indoor fitness facility, ample parking, locker rooms and plenty of storage space. Membership fees for use of the fitness and pool facilities will be announced at a later date.
The Aquatics Center will also provide an economic boost to the region. With the ability to host significant swim competitions-- high school local and state swim meets; local, state and regional club swim meets sanctioned by Virginia and USA Swimming--the Greater Richmond Aquatics Partnership anticipates the facility will bring over $2 million to the area annually through sports tourism.
In addition to the Aquactics Center at Ukrop Park, Chesterfield County plans to develop 10 acres providing (2) synthetic turf, lighted sports fields, 125 parking spaces and walking trail at the adjacent Stratton Park site. The fields will regularly be used for youth-league sports, but will also be available to the Kickers for tournaments, practices and games. Likewise, Ukrop Park would open to the county for big events. The construction of the fields is scheduled to be completed by late fall 2011.

The IASB and the FASB discussed impairment accounting for purchased financial assets, including whether an impairment allowance should be established upon acquisition and the subsequent interest income recognition for purchased financial assets.
At the 22 March meeting, the boards discussed whether or not originated instruments and purchased instruments subject to impairment accounting should have consistent accounting models for interest income recognition and impairment. The boards did not reach a decision on this question and asked the staff to prepare examples for further discussion.
The boards continued their discussion on these issues using examples provided by the staff. The boards tentatively decided that for purchased financial assets that do not have an explicit expectation of losses (that is, loans recognised in the 'good book' upon acquisition) when analysed at the individual asset level, even when acquired as part of a portfolio, an entity should account for impairment in the same way as for originated loans. Interest income for these assets would be recognised on the basis of contractual cash flows. This decision effectively aligns impairment accounting and interest income recognition for originated loans and 'good' purchased financial assets (those that do not have an explicit expectation of losses at the individual asset level at acquisition). The boards will determine the appropriate impairment accounting model for these loans in redeliberating the Supplementary Document, which is currently open for comment.
The boards also discussed impairment accounting, including interest income recognition, for financial assets purchased where an explicit expectation of loss exists at the individual financial asset level (that is, where the loan goes into a 'bad book' at acquisition). The boards tentatively decided that interest income recognised should be based on expected collectible cash flows estimated at the date of acquisition (that is, to accrete purchase price to expected cash flows). As a result of limiting the recognition of interest income for these credit-deteriorated assets, a separate impairment expense would not be recognised at the date of acquisition.
The boards noted that their decisions at this meeting were subject to future discussions on pending issues. These issues include (1) determining how to differentiate purchased portfolios of financial assets into 'good books' and 'bad books' and what the underlying accounting should be and (2) whether 'nonaccrual' guidance is necessary, and, if so, how to apply it.
The IASB and FASB continued their discussions on insurance contracts by considering unlocking the margin and an oral report on the Insurance Working Group Meeting held on 24 March 2011.
Unlocking the margin
The boards discussed:
The boards were not asked to make any decisions on this topic.
Insurance Working Group Meeting
The board received an oral update on the 24 March 2011 Insurance Working Group meeting.
No decisions were made.
Next steps
The boards will continue their discussion on this project in April.
The Board tentatively decided that the proposed changes to discontinued operations do not meet the criteria for inclusion in the Annual Improvements Process. The Board expressed reservations about how urgent the need is to make those changes. It noted that the FASB has still to discuss this matter as well as discussing other changes to its discontinued operations requirements. The Board tentatively decided that it would not publish any exposure draft to amend IFRS 5 before the third quarter.

(Metasequoia glyptostroboides)
One spring several years ago, a WSU student worker who assisted the grounds crew suggested planting a tree for a class project. After discussing the various options, the Dawn Redwood (Metasequoia glyptostroboides) was selected. Early on a Saturday morning representatives from the student's class helped plant the Dawn Redwood; the tree with a fascinating history.
This particular species was previously known through fossil records, which date back 30-50 million years. Considered to be a relative of the Sequoia, the Dawn Redwood is a deciduous conifer.
Most conifer trees are commonly thought of as evergreens. However, the Dawn Redwood exhibits deciduous tree behavior because its needle-like leaves turn color in autumn and are dropped.
As recently as the mid-1940s, this tree was thought to be extinct until living Dawn Redwood trees were found in the province of Hupeh, China. In 1944, the Dawn Redwood was re-introduced to the U.S. by the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University.
The Dawn Redwood is a rapid growing tree and can grow to be 60 feet tall. Its leaves are needle-like, opposite, and arranged in flat sprays. They are 1/2 to 1 1/2 inches long, soft and light green turning a bronzy brown in the fall. The tree features fissured and shredded bark.
WSU's sole Dawn Redwood can be found just west of the main (north) entrance to Memorial Hall.

Mónica Gabriela Moreno Figueroa (PLAS Visiting Scholar) on "Displaced Looks: on being beautiful, ordinary, ugly or insignificant..."
Full title: "Displaced Looks: on being beautiful, ordinary, ugly or insignificant: The lived experience of beauty and racism in Mexico"
Location: 216 Burr Hall
Date/Time: 03/28/12 at 12:00 pm - 03/28/12 at 1:00 pm
Beauty, appearance, and racialised perceptions of skin color, as systems of difference and as empirical experience, are the main focuses of this talk. Moreno Figueroa argues that these notions inform and reproduce each other within specific social and historical configurations of Mexicanness and mestizaje. Moreno Figueroa is an Assistant Professor of Sociology at Newcastle University, United Kingdom where she teaches undergraduate courses on 'race' and racism and the sociology of emotions. She contributes to Newcastle's MA in Latin American Interdisciplinary Studies and since 2008 to the postgraduate Gender Summer Course at Colegio de México. Moreno Figueroa's research and publications have developed around three main topics: whiteness, mestizaje, and the lived experience of 'race' and racism; the interconnections between beauty, emotions, visibility and racism; and visual methodologies, interdisciplinarity and applied research collaborations. She will teach one undergraduate seminar during Spring 2011–12, LAS 323/GSS 322 Body, Beauty, and Race in Latin America.

Marijuana Legalization and Regulation
There is more public support for marijuana law reform than ever before with new polls showing more than half the country is in favor of legalizing marijuana. The Drug Policy Alliance (DPA) believes marijuana should be removed from the criminal justice system and regulated like alcohol and tobacco.
Current Marijuana Laws in the U.S.
See where medical marijuana is legal.
2016 Initiative Results
Election Day was a watershed moment for the movement to end marijuana prohibition — no other reform was approved by so many citizens on so many ballots this year. Legalization initiatives prevailed in four out of five states, and medical marijuana initiatives prevailed in all four states.
But the prospect of Donald Trump as our next president is profoundly troubling. While Trump has repeatedly pledged to respect state marijuana laws, his rhetoric on broader criminal justice issues has been largely unfriendly.
Read more about the impact of the 2016 election on our blog.
Why Should We Legalize?
Reduce harm
The criminalization of marijuana use disproportionately harms young people and people of color, sponsors massive levels of violence and corruption, and fails to curb youth access.
Create jobs
Legalizing and regulating marijuana will bring one of the nation's largest cash crops under the rule of law. This will create jobs and economic opportunities in the formal economy instead of the illicit market.
Save money
Scarce law enforcement resources will be better used to ensure public safety while reducing corrections and court costs. State and local governments would acquire significant new sources of tax revenue from regulating marijuana sales.
Promote consumer safety
Marijuana product testing is becoming a standard requirement for legalized marijuana markets. This means consumers are better informed about the marijuana they use.

DPA product safety recommendations
- Consumers should consider requesting information on any pesticides, fungicides, fertilizers, or any other residual solvents that could remain on flowers after the cultivation process.
- Consumers should be sure to inquire about the potency and dosage of an edible product, especially if they are a novice consumer or if the package is not clearly labeled.
- Testing for mold, fungus, bacteria, and other microbial organisms should be required to ensure safety and quality. The effects of consuming some of these chemicals, especially in the immunocompromised, could be significant.
- Flowers and other cannabis products sold to consumers should include cannabinoid profiles on labels, including the content of THC, CBD and other major cannabinoids, and the number and concentration of doses. This is especially important for edible products, which can contain widely varying doses of cannabis.

How can I eat healthier at fast food restaurants?
Rate This FAQ
Every day, 25 percent of American adults and 30 percent of children eat one meal from a fast food establishment, according to a recent article from the Journal of American Dietetics Association. For those over the age of 18 months, french fries are the most common vegetable eaten. Not surprisingly, our country, as a whole, is getting fatter. The obesity rate in the United States has more than doubled in the last 20 years.
For those wanting to eat fast food, there is good news. Healthy side dish options are the newest trend. Consider this information.
McDonalds now offers side salads, fruit and yogurt parfaits and milk. Children may choose apples with low-fat dip, milk or a juice box in their Happy Meals. Wendy's offers a fresh fruit platter with dip, baked potato, mandarin oranges or chili as side order options. Burger King offers applesauce, 100 percent apple juice or water.
Entree salads are gaining popularity. Mandarin chicken, spring mix, fire-grilled and Cobb salads are examples. These can be healthy alternatives as long as they are not slathered with high-fat dressing and toppings. A "slathered" salad can actually provide the same amount of calories or fat grams as a typical burger.
When comparing menu items, it is important to consider nutritional factors such as fiber and vitamin/mineral content. Salads greatly outweigh burgers and fries when compared this way. Fruit and yogurt parfaits may have the same number of calories as a cookie, but the yogurt and fruit also contribute calcium, vitamin C and vitamin A, whereas the cookie consists of empty calories. Some of the new side options may not be the healthiest, but they are healthier than the alternatives.
Other fast food options are available. Deli sandwich shops, Asian rice bowl eateries and Mexican or southwest grills offer a selection of healthier alternatives. Keep in mind, however, that every restaurant has both healthy and less-healthy choices. For example, Subway advertises its menu items that contain less than 6 grams of fat. However, they also have other items that can pack in around 30 grams of fat, even without condiments.
Additional tricks can help make any fast food meal better for you. Special ordering is one way. Ask to add lettuce and tomato to your burger. Hold the mayo or ask for low-fat sauces and dressings. Ask for sauces and condiments on the side so you can control the amount. Order water or diet soda with your meal instead of regular soda to cut around 200 calories. Opt for grilled items rather than fried. Order smaller sizes and eat slower. You might be surprised that you can fill up with less food if you pay close attention to how you really feel.
Keep in mind that this is not the first time fast food companies have included healthier items on their menus. Customers vote with their stomachs, and healthy products can fade quickly. McDonald's McLean sandwich, adult happy meals, no-fat bran muffins and carrot/celery sticks are examples of healthy failures. Most companies are aware that healthier items won't be big money makers. They know that people eating at fast food establishments are not always the most health conscious and will usually have a hard time resisting the temptation of tasty, greasy foods. The restaurant's consolation is that by offering healthy choices, the obesity critics might leave them alone, and they can also control the "veto factor." This social phenomenon occurs when groups of people eat out together. If one person doesn't agree with the restaurant choice because they don't want a burger or are on a diet, the whole group must go elsewhere. But if there are healthy options for that one person, the restaurant can do what it really wants — sell the other four or five people burgers and fries.
Fast food restaurants are profitable because the empty calorie foods they sell are inexpensive. A 16-ounce soda costs a fast food establishment less than16 cents to produce, yet they can sell it for $1.09. On the other hand, an 8-ounce milk jug costs them considerably more, but is sold for approximately the same price. Potatoes are also an inexpensive menu item.
By choosing the new, healthier fast food options, we are showing companies that nutrition is important to us and that we appreciate their efforts to provide healthier choices.

I had more material from my interview with Dawn Eden about her new book My Peace I Give You: Healing Sexual Wounds with the Help of the Saints, so I have been sharing it here; and now a second installment:
"How can Christ's Passion strengthen me? What does it mean to have him live in me, and for me to live in him?" Doesn't this sound a little bit like a fantasyland?
I suppose it might sound like a fantasyland to someone who doesn't believe that Jesus Christ was fully God and fully man. But, as a Catholic, I believe that Jesus' humanity is the instrument through which his divinity divinizes us. No, we don't become God — we will always be creatures — but we are, through our baptism, united with Jesus' humanity in a manner that enables his divinity to act upon us and transform us. In the words of the Catechism of the Catholic Church, "our participation in the Eucharist already gives us a foretaste of Christ's transfiguration of our bodies."
So Christ's Passion does strengthen me, because the Christ who suffered comes to me in the Eucharist and the other sacraments of the Church, giving me the grace and forgiveness he won for me on the Cross. He does live in me and I live for him through my baptism, which unites me to him, awakens and enlivens his image in me, and makes me a new creation.
Do I always feel united to God? Do I always feel like a new creation? I wish! But thank God my faith is not dependent upon feeling. Even Jesus didn't "feel" like God on the Cross, because Jesus, in his humanity, suffered, and God in his divinity cannot suffer. But Jesus knew he was God, and he willed, as a divine person, to suffer in his human nature, in union with all human persons. So I know, whether I feel God's presence or not, that he is with me in everything I do and everything I suffer. In the words of St. Bernard of Clairvaux, quoted by Pope Benedict in his encyclical Spe salvi, "God cannot suffer, but he can suffer with."

Massachusetts lawmakers are wasting no time in reacting to a court ruling that upskirt photos are legal.
A measure banning secret pictures of women's and children's "sexual or intimate parts" sailed through the House and Senate Thursday. Penalties for those convicted call for 2 1/2 years in jail or a $5,000 fine. If the victim was a minor, the penalties would double.
it comes a day after the state's Supreme Court ruled that photos shot up women's skirts did not violate the law. The court said the current "Peeping Tom" law protected someone's privacy only in dressing rooms and bathrooms while naked or partially closed, but not in public.
Governor Deval Patrick is expected to sign the bill. (Metro Networks Inc.)

Benjamin Gilmore sentenced for arson linked to Occupy: See the film that claims he's innocent
Yesterday, Benjamin Gilmore, a former Occupy Fort Collins protester who makes his living as a beekeeper, was sentenced to eight years behind bars for a 2011 fire in Old Town that caused $10 million in damage.
At the sentencing hearing, Gilmore repeatedly denied wrongdoing, and he's got many supporters behind him -- including filmmaker Lawrence Johnston, whose documentary, Burning the Beekeeper: The Benjamin David Gilmore Story, lays out the case for innocence. See the film in its entirety and get more details below.
A shot of the 2011 fire from "Burning the Beekeeper."
As reported by the Fort Collins Coloradoan, the four-story Penny Flats building in Old Town -- mere steps away from the Occupy Fort Collins encampment at the time -- went up in flames on October 24, 2011.
Afterward, a Rolex with Gilmore's name inscribed on the back was found in the wreckage of the fire, reportedly in two pieces on separate floors. The watch became an important piece of evidence against Gilmore, who ran a local business called Copoco's Honey. He says the watch had been stolen.

In the end, Gilmore was charged in the crime, but he has consistently maintained that he didn't set the blaze. Instead, he and his supporters point to Gerardo "Clutter" Salazar, a man who'd allegedly said he'd thrown a Molotov cocktail into the building, thus starting the conflagration.
The contradictory claims led to a mistrial in the first attempt to convict Gilmore, in September 2012. But prosecutors went back to court, and because Salazar had died in the interim, the defense team's efforts were severely handicapped.
Gilmore as seen in "Burning the Beekeeper."
In October, a new jury convicted Gilmore, and yesterday, he was sentenced to eight years for the crime. Moreover, his request to remain free while appealing was denied. As reported by 7News, he was crying when he was led away in handcuffs after giving his wife and nine-month-old son one last hug.
In the meantime, courthouse protesters affiliated with the Justice for Ben Facebook page made it clear they stand behind Gilmore. They liken his case to that of Tim Masters, who was convicted of murder but later cleared due to DNA evidence. Masters served nearly a decade in prison; in 2010, he was awarded $4.1 million in compensation from the Larimer County judicial district and $5.9 million from the City of Fort Collins.
Look below to see Burning the Beekeeper, a collaboration between director Johnston and narrator Stacy Lynne, described as a "passionate truth-seeker." That's followed by a 7News video in which Gilmore defends his innocence. By the way, his reference to prosecutors twisting his words in the latter refers to a tape played in court in which Gilmore can be heard saying, "The intention was never to hurt anybody."

PASADENA - Five people sustained minor injuries after a 3-car collision Tuesday night.
The crash took place in the 800 block of Los Robles Avenue at 7:53 p.m.
Pasadena police Lt. Pete Hettema said a Honda was heading north on Los Robles Avenue when for some reason it crossed into the southbound lanes and hit a Toyota head on.
A Mazda then rear-ended the Toyota, he said.
Hettema said a 20-year-old Pasadena man driving the Honda ended up with an abrasion to the back of his head. A woman riding in the car complained of pain to her left foot and a 10-year-old boy in the backseat complained of stomach pain.
A 50-year-old Los Angeles woman behind the wheels of the Toyota complained of pain to her neck and torso, Hettema said. Her passenger, a 47-year-old Pasadena man, complained of neck pain.
The four who complained of pain were taken to hospitals, he said . He added that the Honda's driver didn't go to a hospital

Philadelphia Eagles CB Nnamdi Asomugha was on the wrong end of a scary collision with S Nate Allen in practice Monday.
But it doesn't seem like Asomugha will be out for long.
"Nnamdi has whiplash-type symptoms and a split lip," Eagles Head Coach Andy Reid reported Tuesday.
"He didn't have a concussion. He's been tested. Everything's okay there. He wasn't knocked out. That's not what happened when he was hit. He was completely conscious the whole time. But he did get a pretty good laceration to his lip and his back of his neck is a little bit sore."
Reid indicated his star corner shouldn't need too much time to convalesce and return to the field.
"He's sore today so he won't practice today, but we'll see," said Reid. "Day-by-day, we'll just take it and see how he does."
Nate Davis is a reporter, blogger and editor who's been at USA TODAY since 2000. He has covered the NFL since 2005. No, he did not play quarterback for Ball State.
