The earnings statement from the largest theater chain begins with a statement from CEO Amy Miles about last week's shooting in Aurora. "We believe that movie theatres have always been and will continue to be places where friends, families and communities can safely gather together for a few hours of fun and entertainment," she says. "We were devastated and heartbroken by the senseless acts that took place in one of those theatres last week, but remain committed to providing a safe and secure environment for our guests." There was virtually no commentary about the Q2 results themselves, which were mixed. Regal reported net income of $37.2M, up 6.9% vs the same period last year, on revenues of $723.3M, -4%. The revenue figure missed analysts' expectation for $732.9M. But adjusted earnings at 25 cents a share beat the 20 cent forecasts. Attendance at 54,297 was down 8.5% from last year — but at 6,552 screens, down about 100. The average ticket price was $9.11, up from $8.75. Concessions revenues also were up to $3.55 per patron from $3.37.
Regal Entertainment Revenues And Admissions Decline In Q2
5 Comments
Regal's financial results of course came before the Colorado massacre.
But that horrible crime is the worst thing that could have happened to an industry where, short of a blockbuster, attendance has been declining for some time now.
With higher admission prices, noisy and misbehaved crowds, and in many cases films that aren't that good, people have been increasingly avoiding going to the movies.
"… and in many cases films that aren't that good, people have been increasingly avoiding going to the movies."
Not to mention theatres that show the same film on four (often MORE) screens, completely ignoring smaller films that appeal to adults.
In my area, Regal is the ONLY chain represented, with 22 screens, but I have to drive 20 miles to the Arclight to see "The Artist" and "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel"
Rather than do that, screw theatres and wait for them to be on cable.
I'm of the opinion that Regal is the best of them – by far the best of them. But dumping the product through the roof into the square footage of a Best Buy or a Lowe's feels exactly what it is – the cynical first step of the marketing and distribution food chain. The movie-going EXPERIENCE has become kind of depressing. What's so special about dumping "Hugo" or "War Horse" into such circumstances – an "exclusive" engagement for a coupla weeks – those are movies that would have had better awareness at the box office in the long run playing in a classy theater with a genuinely exclusive engagement first. The Clearview chain is interesting. The auditoriums are nothing special but they're smaller and at least they make an effort with some special programming and a conversant relationship with the community in which they're set as for instance with "Magic Mike" in Chelsea. They're no big deal but friendly and comfortable; easy to duck into and meet friends…they make an effort at knowledgeable interaction. So I sincerely hope that the Roberts family takes the Ziegfeld off the market. The last truly unique movie-going experience in New York…conceivably could go forever.
Not only that but the experience of the movie, in my opinion, does indeed impact word-of-mouth and the bottom line in the long run. If the experience is unpleasant…you may just decide that the movie you're watching is a piece of crap. Go viral long from there in terms of units and consumer products.
Years ago, movie were movies–not events. In the early 1970's films were often released territorially across the nation–each major metropolitan market hit for two weeks and then the prints moved on to the next area (or "held over" if audience demand warranted). I liked that era. I miss that era.
But thanks to an incessant pushing from Tom "Billy Jack" Laughlin, movies started opening nationwide on 1000 screens. Columbia's ultra-successful 1975 1000-screen nationwide opening of BREAKOUT with Charlie Bronson clinched that approach. Then Tim Burton's BATMAN (1989) opened on 2000 screens. And INDEPENDENCE DAY (1996) on 4000. Between 2000 to 4000 screens is where it's stayed. It made sense, too, and profits were maximized.
Now, thanks to the need to quickly exploit homevid & ancillaries as well as the need to defeat worldwide digital piracy, movies are no longer nationwide events but global events–quarter billion dollar comic-books (truly appealing to a global lowest of lowest cross-cultural common demoninators) opening in all markets around the planet on or as close to the same weekend as possible.
With tongue firmly planet in cheek, this one-minute video sums-up what all the tentpoles today have become…

Local roundup: Ford City boys deliver season high in victory
At last, a Ford City boys basketball game played at the relentless tempo that satisfies Sabers coach Greg Hutcherson.
Ford City finished with a season-high point total during its 88-76 home win over Summit Academy Tuesday night. The Sabers (6-14, 2-7), whose previous high was 73, led, 27-9, after the first quarter of the Section 1-AA game.
Jesse Sequeira scored a team-high 19 points for Ford City, and David Lattanzio and Andrew Labutka followed with 18 and 17, respectively. The trio combined for 11 3-pointers, with Labutka sinking five.

Dun Mountain Trail To Be Closed For Five Weeks
Nelson City
Mountain Trail To Be Closed For Five
Media release: 31 January 2013
The Dun Mountain Trail will be closed to mountain bikers and walkers from Monday 11 February to Monday 18 March while construction of a new underground water pipeline from the Maitai Dam moves closer to the city.
During the five-week trail closure, work on the Maitai Pipeline Duplication project will be taking place along a section of the trail on Maitai Valley Road, up from the motor camp.
Manager Capital Projects Phil Hamblin says due to the narrow width of the road in this busy residential area, there isn't any way to keep recreational access open while the new pipeline is being installed.
Mountain bikers and walkers are discouraged from using any part of the trail while the work takes place, including the current detour section on private property near the motor camp. Closure signage will be installed at all entry points to the Dun Mountain Trail.
The trail will be open for the Coppermine Epic mountain bike race on Saturday 16 February.
Maitai Valley Road, from the motor camp to the Maitai Dam, is currently closed to motorists until July 2013.
At a cost of $12 million, the new duplicate pipeline will eventually replace the existing 50-year old above ground pipeline.
Alternative biking options to the Dun Mountain Trail include Codgers Mountain Bike Park at the top of the Brook Valley and Involution Trail in Marsden Valley, or closer to the city, try Sir Stanley Whitehead Park, Branford Park and the Grampians.

After an uneventful passage through customs, I now embark at Bengaluru airport. When the automatic door opened to the India soil, I took a quick scan of the people holding signs all lined up to greet us. Something was different. I lifted my eyes above the horizon and saw the immediate noticeable change at sight. It is indeed a brand new airport. That's right, this airport opened last May and Hindustan is now officially operational. This is located 50 kilometers outside Bangalore (the opposite direction from Mysore, yes, further!) Bangalore beat Delhi in offering a new airport? Delhi has been boasting a state of the art airport slated for 2010. Oh, I remember vividly the unpleasant discomfort and nuances traveling around Delhi (that is another boring chapter so I will skip that). I paced myself slowly passing each placard, reading, looking for my name (even my last name and not first name as that is how I was addressed here before). There was my guru, Dr. Murthy and one of his sishyas holding a sign for me that read My name Wel-come while Dr. M was holding a bouquet of fresh flowers.
Vinay loads my two 50 pounder luggage in the car. I scout the scenery while Dr. M acknowledges my arrival and reassures me of unconditional comfort in his home in the next few days while I decide which shala I will choose to study so he can strategically place my accommodation accordingly. By the way, one of these 50 pounder luggage is full of school supplies for the kids here. I can't wait to see the faces of happy kids. Sad to say, it will never be enough. A big thank you to all my students who tossed me a dollar here and there to help get something for the kids. My luggage allowance limited me to buy some more but rest assured, it will help me buy those sacks of rice come Christmas for them.
It is almost midnight. The streets are still very active, loud and full of life. As I observe around, déjà vu sinks in. I see many familiar scenes, the haggard physiques, the rushed intentions, the incessant honking, etc. The putrid smell, men standing against the concrete fences tending to their personal business, as if hosing down the walls will grow flowers or produce more dahl, the incongruent flow of traffic with all signs ignored (or perhaps they are all color blind and red or green just means it is a permission to drive whichever way you please). There is that motorcycle scene again, three or four people; the driver, wife on her saree riding side saddled with a child on her lap and another human being sitting in front of the driver. I know that wearing a helmet was already a law before I left last time but I did not see any of these people wearing one. There was rubbish strewn all over the land, the dilapidated buildings and holy cows in every corner. I thought I have forgotten the most annoying peculiar gesture of bopping heads. When you talk to people here, they stare at you and bop their heads. Really. It looks like one of those Oakland Acers mascot holding a baseball bat, at the back of a car and its head bopping, floating into unconditional agreement. When I first encountered this, I thought the guy had a motion problem, some kind of repetitive movement due to a damaged nerve. I repeated my question over and over and his head kept bopping deeper and wider. Exasperated, I exclaimed, "Come on, say something!" Filipinos raised their eyebrows when they mean yes assuming that you can hear their brows move. (Marci, have I discouraged you yet? Are you still joining me later?) No, I am not dreaming. Yes, I am in India!
We arrive at Dr. M's home. My temporary flat is in the living room in a corner. The bed was the size enough to hold my fatigued and limp body. There was a light blanket for me to use, not to keep me warm but to discourage the mosquitoes from beaming me up to Punjab. By my head was a shut door. It's a good thing I placed my head on that direction. I learned the following morning that it is their altar. Ganesh, Shiva, Lakshmi and Saraswathi were all there. It is disrespectful to point the feet towards the altar. That I made sure will not happen.
The next morning, I was alone as everyone went to their business. It was bath time. Oh yeah, there is hot water. I still have to mix the cold and hot water in the bucket and scoop it over my head. Lucky for me the water is clear. In some parts of India, the bathing water is actually brown. You have to close your eyes, purse your lips and buy two liters of bottled water for your final rinse.
Finally, my very first long awaited yoga sadhana. And there were two. Dr. M instructed Acharya Nijaguna to pick me up in his motorcycle so I can attend. He arrived 10 minutes before the scheduled class time. I asked how far is the shala and he said 10 kilometers. Given my knowledge of India's traffic, my calculating mind quickly started rolling down minutes into distance and I knew very well, it would take a miracle to get there on time. I got in the back of the motorcycle and quietly obliged to hold on to something with one hand while I clutched on my yoga mat with the other. By this time, my rear pack is now suffering from a "camel saddle syndrome" from riding motorcycle with Mo. I know this ride will be different than Singapore though. Still I obliged. Either that or fight with the rickshaw drivers and I know they will not get me to class on time. Even if they did, I will have to add extra minutes for the time it will take for us to argue over the fare anyway. Nijaguna revved the engine and off we went. For every turn, my knuckles got whiter and tighter. I asked myself, "What would it take for us to get there on time?" Nijaguna blazed the traffic unfazed joining all drivers in unison honking his horn. It was no doubt the perfect moment to call on Ganesh, the God who is referred to as the Remover of Obstacles. Come to think of it, every driver should pray to Ganesh every time. Then all the traffic challenges will be solved. I found myself reciting the Ganesh mantra quietly. "Om Gum Gana Patayei Namaha" over and over again. Even if it means going against the flow, Nijaguna was a maharaja of all might at the moment. Then I saw many people walking towards us. It can't be. We are driving on the sidewalk! This time, I closed my eyes, clutched on the iron plate tighter as my digits can manage as they started to numb. My recitation got faster and faster but this time I was reciting my acts of contrition and I was calling upon my own God, Jesus. Are you in India? Oh GAWD, Jesus, please save me. Do something, beam us up, something, now. I closed my eyes, pursed my lips and KUMBHAKA! For how long, I don't recall. I slowly squinted my eyes and hesitantly peeked to see if there are cops or sirens surrounding us. None. We entered a gated compound and the scenery began to change. We are now in the shala. We made it! Nijaguna turned off the engine. How dare he asked me with a proud grin, "Did you enjoy the ride?" Not a word came out of my mouth but with my heart thumping, inside I uttered, "How could you?" He did not apologize. Of course not! Was I to expect that? In his mind, I probably should thank him for his splendid maneuver and for getting us to class, on time and alive. He smiled and said, "I will be slower next time." It's not like I have not been on a bike in India.
No one was stressed but me. Now I really need yoga. I slowly slipped my shoes off. Everyone was busy chatting when we walked in. It got quiet and the eyes were on me. I was noticed. I looked different. I did not wear a suit and I did not speak Kannada. Nijaguna introduced me and I politely bowed and said "Aap kaise hain? Mera nam hae Samson." Light laughter in unison. I am not sure if I pronounced my fragmented Hindi properly or if they were expecting me to speak Kannada instead. At the end of the class, three women approached me and acknowledged me. "You did very well, have you been practicing for long?" I responded, "dve deja." Another chuckle; Sanskrit but no Kannada.
I got to practice twice in one day amongst women in two different venues, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. There were about 20 women in each class, all yoga'ing in their suits (without the shawl). For every urdha hastana, I can hear their bangle bracelets clink and clang. For every bhudrasana, I can see their tops cover their faces. For every parshva drishti, I could see their bindhis imbedded in their ajna chakras. The distraction was temporary as I reminded myself to gaze inwards and closed my eyes. This sadhana is for me. Acharya Vinay says "Vanish your stress. Forget the body. Melt away the aches and pain." That I did. The practice was quite different than my regular routine as we inserted svasana and schlokas in between groups of asanas. This is typical though for all ananda yoga.
After then we headed to Lalbagh Botanical Garden where Dr. M practiced with his champion sishyas. This is where I see Dr. M regarded by his country as a World Champion. Yes, he just won another World Champion title last July with his picture of Ekapada Mayurasana, (the wounded peacock balancing his entire horizontal body with one hand). Here he was on urdhva dhanurasana walking back and forth with his hastas and padas up and down the rocky stairwell, then got up, picking up his entire body into uttanasana. He looked like a runaway Alaskan king crab on a slippery glacier. As if that was not impressive enough, he then went into mukta hasta vrkrasana up and down the hill once again. Okay, the difference here is that urdhva dhanurasana was balancing on all fours while mukta hasta vrkrasana is balancing with dve hasta (two hands) while his feet were resting on his shoulders, in the dark! (It was about 6 pm.) He looked like a mad scorpion chasing its prey. I am not making this up. I could not take pictures as it was dark but I am certain we will have more sessions to arrive. He did this as a warm up; to inspire or demonstrate? Either way, he got my undivided attention.

In addition to the core curriculum designed to provide a sound foundation in general pediatrics, our program is invested in the Individualized Curriculum. Each resident's individualized curriculum is determined by his or her learning needs and career plans and is developed with the guidance of a faculty mentor. The individualized curriculum focuses on providing experiences that will help each resident to be better prepared for the next step in his or her career after residency.
Don't worry! This does not mean that you have to be decided on your post-residency plans before you get here. Maybe the next step for you is trying to decide between general pediatrics or fellowship, between several fellowship options, or between community practice and inpatient pediatrics. There is no right place to start the planning of your individualized curriculum, what is important is the path that you begin to develop with the help of your mentor and our faculty to specifically suit your needs and support your career aspirations.
In order to allow flexibility we do not offer rigid "tracks" at this time. However, we do have dedicated faculty members in many areas that are helping to guide curriculum development in a way that will be most beneficial to individual residents with specific career goals.
Below is a list of examples of recent graduates' individualized curriculums. This list is meant to serve as examples of what some creative residents felt would augment their residency training at CMC. It is not all inclusive and your individualized curriculum is not limited to these options. Our program leadership is very open to new and creative ways to improve resident exposure, experiences, and education.

Army Puts a Woman in Charge
Posted on Sep 21, 2009
Women make up just 13 percent of the Army, but one of them now oversees the training of every single drill sergeant. That means she also oversees, by extension, the training of every single soldier.
Command Sgt. Maj. Teresa L. King will be the first woman to run an Army drill instructor school, and there's only one since the Army consolidated all of its schools into one facility.
King is a trailblazer, but she's no bra burner. She idolizes Patton, thought about dropping out of the military to spread the Gospel and thinks most women are not capable of frontline combat—although she tells The New York Times that women should be allowed to fight if they prove that they are. —PS

Bobby Spriggs Jr,
If you make it back to this comment list—
Thanks for giving us all a little insight into the article. All of us could use some of that—
And THANK YOU for your contribution to this country, always remember that you guys have tons of support and love of so many across the nation.

I worked with Command Sgt.Maj. Teresa L. King. She is above any soldier I ever knew. Nobody even comes close to her. She is without question, the finest soldier in the entire U.S. Army. She is professional and an excellent trainer. I just wish that there were more like her. She brings honor and respect to the military, as well as to America. It was an honor to serve under such a great person. I wish her good health and well being as when she retires, she cannot be replaced.

By all means, educate me then.

Wow, P.T., like I said before I really hoped you would have something smarter to say….it is a little fun to play with you like a kid would play with food on his plate that he doesn't want to eat though—-honestly dude, I'm glad we exchanged ideas on some level, it really put things into perspective for me. So thank you.
By Little Nikki, September 23, 2009 at 10:58 am Link to this comment
I think it is so funny when people don't debate intelligently. You must be a small person P.T.
Or you are most likely a member of the armed services with a healthy hatred for women—- my fiancee served in Iraq and was a tanker in the front lines….he has never had that kind of mentality. That is the kind of attitude that gets people killed. I hope you think of something smarter to say next time honey.

I am not in the military—- but does anyone think that it is a mental challenge just as much as a physical one to be a soldier/drill seargent?? She may be damn good at motivating trainess and getting them to be productive—- also, I highly doubt that making a woman the head of the entire drill seargent program was a decision based solely on physical prowess. The military is just as political as politics. Before anyone decides to rail on her for not running less than 7 minute per mile they should consider that she could still probably drag every one of you out of harm's way in battle and THEN kick your asses.
By VicD, September 22, 2009 at 6:36 am Link to this comment
Stating that soldiers in training should not be able to out perform their instructors implies that the Drill Sergeants should be the fastest runners in the platoon - that would lead to 18 year old young men being in charge since many drill sergeants do not beat all trainees' raw PT scores - although they may (and most likely do) score a higher aggregate score.
By Laugher, September 21, 2009 at 4:33 pm Link to this comment
The head of all the drill Sargents can only do 34 pushups? That's fairly sad
Soldiers in training should not be able to out perform their drill instructor

Wherever Benedictine monasteries were located, there were cultural centers of music and arts. As one walks around the Monastery property, he or she is met with much original artwork. Oblates and friends of the Monastery have contributed their talents and time to make it an especially beautiful place of art. Our Lady of Guadalupe Church shows the devotion through art that a number of artists have contributed from the windows, wood carvings, bronze sculptures, fabric and tiles.
The dining room and conference rooms are also resplendent with works in oils, watercolor, porcelain, wood and many other media. The 70 foot cross was a donation by oblates from Sierra Vista.
The San Pedro Valley Center for the Arts is housed at the Monastery, with on-going workshops in various media throughout the year. The Gallery Trinitas displays the work of local artists, as well as other works. Many items are for sale.
Concerts are provided throughout the year featuring internationally acclaimed musicians. They come to the monastery under the auspices of the Arizona Commission of the Arts and Cochise College.
The museum that is attached to the gallery displays a wealth of antique items. The museum consists of five rooms, each depicting different eras and subjects. One room is devoted to nativity scenes that have been collected from around the world. In addition to the Lladro and Hummel sets is one from Madagascar, showing the native people. At present there are approximately 168 sets, from the very small to a large hand-carved wooden set.
Another room shows the history of Arizona, Mexico, Latin America and its native people. There is pottery, hand-woven baskets, plus artifacts of the ranchers.
Liturgical history of the Catholic Church is displayed in another room with an antique alter, an organ, vestments, chalices and a wide variety of items.
One can take a trip back into the turn of the century in the next room. Donations of china, crystal, hand-crocheted items, furniture and so much more can transport one to a more refined time. There is even a perpetual Christmas tree.
There is also a display of musical instruments, sheet music and military uniforms. One can truly spend hours looking at all the displays. The curator is usually on duty to explain where the items came from and some of the history connected to them.

All Health of Aquatic Communities Products
Smart-Phone Technology Helps Protect Salmon Habitat in Washington State –USGS, in cooperation with Seattle Public Utilities, embedded high-tech sensors typically found in devices such as smart phones into a new type of equipment to monitor riverbed movements that can help protect spawning habitat for endangered salmon. The new method is published in the Journal of Hydrology. Scientists took the high-tech sensors, also referred to as "accelerometers," coupled with data-logging circuits, and placed them in tubes that were then buried in the Cedar River's grovel in 26 salmon-spawning locations. (Read more about USGS activities in Washington).
Nutrient Enriched Groundwater Contributes to Excessive Algal Growth in Fish Creek, Wyoming –USGS, in cooperation with the Teton Conservation District, analyzed groundwater flow and streamflow, and collected water, aquatic insect, and algal samples from 2007 to 2011 to characterize the stream and to compare data to neighboring rivers and streams. The study found greater growth of algae and other aquatic plants in Fish Creek than in nearby rivers and streams. This excess algae is related to the influx of nutrients—orthophosphate and nitrate—to the stream from groundwater. Sources of nutrients to the groundwater include septic tanks, sewage treatment plants, animal confinement areas, and lawn fertilizer. Because groundwater discharge into Fish Creek is such a large percentage of flow in the stream, such nutrient inputs are ultimately affecting rapid growth of algae and large aquatic plants in the summer and fall in Fish Creek, which, in turn, results in declining species of aquatic insects such as the caddsifly and mayfly. (Press Release)
Water Quality Affects Aquatic Health in Urban Streams in Kansas City and Independence, Missouri –USGS, in cooperation with the City of Independence, Missouri Water Pollution Control Department, used macroinvertebrate populations as an indicator of stream health in downstream areas of the Blue River and Little Blue River basins, which are both affected by urban development. Differences were noted in aquatic-life status because of effects of stormwater, wastewater discharges, and upstream reservoirs. (Technical announcement; Report)
Online Screening Tool for New Water Withdrawals in Michigan –The State of Michigan ratified the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River Basin Water Resources Compact on July 9, 2008, and under the Compact, agreed to develop implementation legislation to prevent adverse resource impacts of water withdrawals on the ecosystems and watersheds within the Basin. Through cooperative science projects, USGS, in cooperation with the State of Michigan and Michigan State University, provides science to support to the state in the development of an innovative water-withdrawal assessment process and on-line screening tool for new or increased water withdrawals (On-line screening tool). This process combines ungaged-flow estimation, a statewide ecological flow classification of streams, estimation of streamflow depletion by wells, and ecological-response curves describing the potential impact of water withdrawals on characteristic fish populations within a legislative and management framework.
Environmental Flow Studies in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia –USGS, in cooperation with the Central Shenandoah Valley Planning District Commission, the Northern Shenandoah Valley Regional Commission, and Virginia Commonwealth University, examined the instream flow needs of aquatic organisms of the South Fork and North Fork Rivers. Consistent model output and a range of scenarios are presented to Valley planners and water-resource managers regarding current and future water resources in the basin, the availability of water for fish habitat, recreation, and the potential effects of withdrawals and conservation measures on fish populations. For example, a key finding from the recent South Fork study suggests that for normal or wet years, increased water withdrawals are not likely to correspond with extensive habitat loss for game fish or nongame fish. During drought years, however, a 20- to 50-percent increase in water withdrawals may result in below normal habitat availability for game fish throughout the river and nongame fish in the upper and middle sections of the river. These simulations of rare historic drought conditions, such as those observed in the Valley in 2002 serve as a baseline for development of ecological flow thresholds for drought planning. (Studies available at: http://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2012/5081 and http://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2006/5025/.)
Low Flow Management in northeast Kaua'I, Hawai'i –USGS, in cooperation with the State of Hawaiʻi Department of Hawaiian Home Lands, assessed the availability and distribution of natural low flow in Anahola Stream in northeast Kaua'i, Hawai'i, which supports agricultural, domestic, and cultural uses within its drainage basin. Biological surveys were conducted as part of the study to determine the distribution of native and nonnative aquatic stream fauna. The report summarizes scenarios that describe (1) surface-water availability under regulated conditions of Anahola Stream if the upper and lower intakes are restored in the future; and (2) amount of flow available for agricultural use at the upper intake under a variety of potential instream-flow standards that may be established by the State of Hawaiʻi for the protection of instream uses. (Full report)
Macroinvertebrate Index of Biotic Integrity in Pennsylvania streams –USGS has worked with the Chester County Water Resources Agency in Chester County, Pennsylvania for more than 40 years to assess water quality using benthic-macroinvertebrates and water chemistry as indicators. A benthic macroinvertebrate Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI) was developed based on the historical data collected under base-flow conditions (every Fall) during the long-term program. A USGS report summarizes conditions over the last decade (1998-2009). . Major factors that were found to affect macroinvertebrate scores are nutrient concentrations, habitat conditions, and percent of wooded and urban land use. Chester County encompasses 760 square miles in southeastern Pennsylvania and has a rapidly expanding population. Land-use change has occurred in response to this continual growth, as open space, agricultural lands, and wooded lands have been converted to residential and commercial lands. This study is integrated with other activities used to measure and describe water resources in the County, providing the County with information it needs for sound water-resources management.
Development of Invertebrate Indexes of Stream Quality for the Islands of Maui and Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi –USGS, in cooperation with the State of Hawaiʻi Department of Health, developed an invertebrate community index (ICI) for the Islands of Maui and O'ahu that could be used as an indicator of stream quality. The macroinvertebrate community data were used to identify metrics that could best differentiate among sites according to disturbance gradients such as embeddedness, percent fines (silt and sand areal coverage), or percent agricultural land in the contributing basin area. Environmental assessments were conducted using land-use/land-cover data and reach-level physical habitat data. This ICI is the beginning of a statewide ICI that is intended to help identify broad problem areas so that the Hawaii State Department of Health (HIDOH) can prioritize their efforts on a statewide scale. Once these problem areas are identified, the island-wide ICIs can be used to more accurately assess the quality of individual stream reaches so that the HIDOH can prioritize their efforts on the most impaired streams. (Full report)
Peak-Flow and Stream Ecology Management of the Cedar River, Washington –USGS, in cooperation with Seattle Public Utilities, assessed the linkages between high-flow events, geomorphic response, and effects on stream ecology in the gravel-bedded Cedar River in Washington. High flows can deleteriously affect salmon embryos incubating in the streambed gravels. Recorded accelerometer disturbances, combined with a two-dimensional hydrodynamic model, allowed the prediction of streambed disturbance at the burial depth of Chinook and sockeye salmon egg pockets for different peak discharges. Insight gained from these analyses led to the development of suggested monitoring metrics for an ongoing geomorphic monitoring program on the Cedar River. (Full report)
Sediment in Puget Sound Rivers, Washington –USGS studies show that roughly enough sediment to fill a football field to the height of six Space Needles is delivered into the Puget Sound each year through a complex delivery network of rivers. Paradoxically, river sediment is both a benefit and a threat to ecosystems and people. Adequate amounts of sediment are needed for beaches, deltas, and other coastal habitats that aquatic species need, including those on which people depend. But excessive amounts of sediment can stress aquatic species by transporting contaminants or burying vegetation. Sedimentation within rivers can also increase flood risk. (USGS Fact Sheet; Technical announcement)
Estimates of Low Summer Flows Help Fish, Habitat in Western Washington –USGS, in cooperation with the Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission and its member tribes performed low-flow surveys in small western Washington streams that are not currently part of a regional streamflow-monitoring network. Findings show that low summer streamflows during the driest years--particularly in streams without flow gages--can be estimated using relatively inexpensive methods and allow understanding of low flows even where and when we do not have the resources to measure them directly. Scientists are using this information to better understand low summer flows in specific streams, as well as to improve low-flow models for the region. Low flows in streams are essential for maintaining connectivity for fish migration and nutrient transport. (Report; Press release)
Effects of water use and land use on fish communities in Boston, Massachusetts –USGS, in cooperation with the Massachusetts Executive Office of Environmental Affairs Department of Conservation and Recreation, developed a watershed model and fish-habitat analysis of the Sudbury-Assabet Basin, a semi-urbanized metro-Boston basin, which shows effects of water use and land use on fish communities and simulates effects of 2030 water use and land use on streamflow.
Aquatic insect communities in Autauga Creek Watershed, Autauga, Alabama –A cooperative study with the Alabama Clean Water Partnership evaluated aquatic insect (or "macroinvertebrate") families within the orders of Ephemeroptera, Plecoptera, and Trichoptera at sites sampled in 2009 in the Autauga Creek Watershed and compared them to those found a decade earlier during a 1999 survey (at which time the creek was placed on the Alabama Department of Environmental Management 303(d) list). (USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2011-1027).
Nutrients and relations to biological communities in western Wyoming –USGS, in cooperation with the Teton Conservation District, characterized nutrients, habitat, and biological communities in Fish Creek, a tributary to the Snake River, in Teton County in western Wyoming. The study helps to address public concern about nuisance growth of aquatic plants in Fish Creek, which has been increasing in recent years. (Full report)
Recreational flow releases in New York –The USGS, in cooperation with the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and Cornell University, characterized the potential effects of recreational-flow releases from Lake Abanakee on natural resources in the Indian and Hudson Rivers. The USGS report shows that the releases generally had a limited effect on fish and macroinvertebrate communities in the Indian River and had no effect on communities in the Hudson River.

From planning and configuration through identity mapping, IBM can implement a sign-on protocol that works across Microsoft® Windows® platform-based server environments to eliminate most sign-on prompts, helping to reduce administrative demands and management costs.
- Enables users to sign on to multiple servers with a single user ID and password
- Decreases user ID and password management costs
- Reduces administrative and support demands, freeing IT staff to focus on core tasks
- Enhances user productivity
- Helps decrease security risks
Service detail
Sign-on protocol may seem like a minor issue. But in the course of a single day, employees in a typical business environment must access multiple servers to perform their daily tasks. They sign on to their desktops. Mail servers. Web servers. Directory servers. Legacy servers. And each system may require a different user ID and password.
Suddenly, sign on doesn't seem so simple. IT administrators have to manage passwords and user IDs for every user, for each system. The help desk must support users when their passwords are forgotten or, in the worst case, stolen. Valuable IT funds must be devoted to this administration and support. User productivity may be diminished. Business-critical data is likely to be vulnerable from a number of entry points.
IBM Implementation Services for System i - single sign-on enables enterprises to eliminate most sign-on prompts, helping them lighten their administrative and support burden, reduce costs, boost productivity and decrease security risks. Service capabilities include:
- Planning, configuring and integrating the IBM i5/OS® operating system into a single Microsoft Windows domain
- Setting up the Microsoft Windows system to issue Kerberos distributed network authentication protocol tickets for i5/OS services
- Configuring IBM Network Authentication Service on IBM System i™ software
- Implementing enterprise identity mapping (EIM)
- Configuring workstations to participate in the single sign-on domain
- Educating users on the new sign-on solution.

WOW! Not again… I've abandoned this blog again! Hehehe…
The first month of 2012 is over really soon! Chinese New Year celebration is also ending soon.
December was busy, busy with exam and also preparing for my trip to Korea. I had spent the last day of 2011 in Seoul and the first 22 days in Busan. Only got back this Tuesday and it's already 2nd day of CNY. My 1st day of CNY was spent in Singapore. What an amount of travelling hahaha… Actually not much, just that I have long transit time that's all.
So many nice views in Korea. Will try to share some photos of my trip to Korea soon.

Associated Press
TUMWATER — The former Olympia Brewery has been vacant for a decade, but a deed restriction has been lifted that could allow a smaller brewer to start making beer again in Tumwater.
The former owner lifted a restriction that prevented alcohol from being produced — so a competitor couldn't move in, said commercial real estate broker Troy Dana who has been trying to sell the property.
Dana is reoffering the property to smaller breweries that have expressed interest in the past, The Olympian reported (http://bit.ly/15qzQpD ).
"It's going to change the perception of the complex dramatically," Dana said. "It's a whole new product and a whole new opportunity."
The deed restriction was a deal killer for other breweries, said redevelopment project manager Michael Matthias, who was hired by the city of Tumwater and Thurston Economic Development Council to advance the development process.
"Now we don't need to have that discussion," he said. "I'm delighted that it's off and free."
Plans to bottle water at the brewery after it closed in 2003 went down the drain and much of the property went into foreclosure.

LINK: Did Jay-Z Get Passed Over for the American Gangster Movie
Atlanta-based blogger Sandra Rose is reporting that the real reason Jay-Z is so passionate about the new Denzel Washington movie is that he was actually passed over for the lead role, and his request to record the official soundtrack was denied:
A confidential source has revealed the real reason behind Jay Z's "concept" album "American Gangster". The source who is close to Jay Z's camp, said Jay Z was "hurt" and "disappointed" that he didn't get the plum role of the Harlem numbers runner-turned-heroin dealer. The insider also said Jay Z felt slighted when the film's producers nixed his offer to record the soundtrack for the movie.
"He was assed out," said the insider. "They f*cked with his ego big time. Jay is not a man who can take no for an answer." The source also said Jay Z called in favors and tried to pull rank by going to Denzel Washington, who was eventually given the role. "The truth has never been told: Jay Z wanted the role years ago when Universal Studios first purchased the rights to "The Return of Superfly," said the insider, referring to the New York magazine article by Mark Jacobson.
She contiunues:
In September, Jay Z announced his new "concept" album "American Gangster" which he claimed was "inspired by" the movie. "Bullshit," said the source, – "At this point he doesn't want that movie to do well. Why you think all those clear studio copies of the movie are flooding the streets? This the first time a movie ever got bootlegged way before the movie was in the theaters. Only somebody with a studio copy could have done that."

Dear Economist,
I am a woman in my early 30s. I am also a virgin. Should I be?
Gloria, New York
Dear Gloria,
Let me lay out the relevant economic theory and evidence. Theory first: economists have often theorised that women should have evolved preferences to be more careful than men about whom they have sex with. The basic reasoning is that it takes a woman nine months to produce a baby, while it takes a man about 90 seconds. However, birth control is much better than it was in the environment in which these preferences evolved. Perhaps, then, your preferences are more cautious than they should be.
What about the evidence? The economist Alan Collins, in a paper titled Surrender Value of Capital Assets: The Economics of Strategic Virginity Loss, assesses whether men and women lose their virginity in different circumstances. The key conclusion is that almost 60 per cent of women say they lost their virginity because they were in love; just over 35 per cent of men offered this reason. Collins believes this supports the socio-biological view that women are making an investment when they lose their virginity, and so need to choose their partners with care. Men are simply engaging in consumption – that is, having fun.
Collins also discovers that people who found out about sex by talking with friends (rather than, for instance, from books) were more likely to lose their virginity for non-romantic reasons. Perhaps they wanted something to talk about. I suggest that you get some friends over for a girly chat about the facts of life. All investments should begin with research.

My oh my, how the six month mark has crept up upon us! Seeing as September 20th is only a stones throw away, be prepared for sneak peeks in to our wedding plans and getting in on all the excitement from the comfort of your bed/sofa/*insert current location here*. As it seems a rather appropraite place to start, I present to you our save the dates! We always knew we wanted to make everything ourself and these cards were no exception. If you're wondering how to make your own save the dates, or are looking for some save the date inspiration then you've come to the right place.
Asking a dear friend to take a trip with us to a nearby woods for a picnic with my polaroid camera in tow, our image was captured (plus my finger prints added, whoops) and the rest came to me as I sat at my iMac. Being a dab hand with photoshop and design in general (even if I do say so myself), I managed to whip these up in a jiffy, with Rich keeping the teapot filled and giving his opinion where needed.
I had them printed by Moo.com as postcards, because you can be sure of the fabulous quality and the service is second to none. I never questioned which company would print them as I've used Moo for my business cards time and time again. I would recommend them to any of you looking for save the date postcards or new blog business cards! As a little treat to you guys, if you click this link you can get 10% off on anything you order – don't say I never treat you!
Inside our save the date envelopes, we included some heart shaped sequins (because who doesn't like being showered with glittery goodness) and for the special people in our life, hand-stamped luggage tags asking them to be bridesmaids or groomsmen (read: my hands were covered in ink for days afterwards). We sealed them with some striped washi tape (decorative stationary lovers unite) and popped them in the post and through doors. We didn't have to wait patiently for long before squeals of excitement met us!
It had been our plan from the start to keep our wedding date a firm secret until our save the dates went out, to surprise all of our loved ones with something in the post rather than them hearing it in coversation. If you're looking for creative ways to ask your bridesmaids and groomsmen to be involved, we would wholeheartedly recommend this – ours got a double whammy of excitement with the wedding date and asking to be involved all at once! Now, I'd better start designing our actual invitations! 😉 x
