Betty White Spoofs Miley Cyrus' "Wrecking Ball" Video [VIDEO]
Subscribe to Hot 107.9 on
Betty White is promoting her new show "Off Their Rockers," and to get the attention of some viewers, she has resorted to riding on a "Wrecking Ball" much like Miley Cyrus did in her new music video.
White's new show airs on Lifetime and in this promotional ad, much like Miley, Betty White is riding a Wrecking Ball. But that's not all, being the prankster that she is, Betty White even resorts to the infamous foam finger at the end of the ad. We can only hope that Betty White doesn't abuse the foam finger like Miley did at the MTV VMAs. It would not be a pretty sight.

In order to properly restore all BGP sessions on border1, it is necessary to establish them in a particular order to avoid overloading the CPU. In particular, the overhead of establishing a BGP session with Mzima can cause timeouts and flapping of our OSPF sessions with GNI. If our BGP session with GNI is already established, this can cause an unintentional reset which quickly leads to a fatal chain-reaction of BGP session failures. It appears the desired bring-up order will be: * Any2 peers * Mzima #1 * Mzima #2 * Internal sessions * GNI Currently, only our session with GNI is active on border1. To bring all peers online, we will need to intentionally terminate this session and reactivate all peers in the above order.
Comment 1•
9 years ago
Note: Ideally, the OSPF issue will be resolved by experimenting with more liberal timeouts during a future maintenance window.
9 years ago
Comment 2•
9 years ago
Process completed. During the phased activation of BGP peers, CPU utilization remained higher than expected. border1 was switching a significant number (~75%) of packets in software, saturating the CPU. Consultation with Cisco TAC suggested a memory management problem with the TCAM. The quickest solution was a reboot of border1. After the reboot, all BGP peers were restored without issue and CPU utilization remained minimal. A second Level3 gigabit circuit, previously disabled due to faulty media, was also enabled during this window.

Since the iPhone 5 – and iOS 6 – launched, it's fair to say that Apple's new Maps application has proved contentious with users.
As we've noted, users have reported a number of issues with the Maps application, from incorrect locations and wrong place names to cities covered by clouds. While we tested the iPhone 5 to the best of our ability in our review – and the iPhone 5 is still a stunning piece of kit – the issues with Maps only came to light once a large number of users worldwide had updated to iOS Maps.
Apple has already responded to the situation with a statement here – noting that the service will improve as more people use it – but it's fair to say that this is could be a deal-breaker for many who rely on the functionality of Google Maps on a day to day basis.
For this reason (and until Apple's Maps functionality is significantly improved) we have updated our review of the iPhone 5.
Stuff editor Will Findlater says: "There are four bits of functionality that are fundamental to the smartphone experience: communication, apps, entertainment and mapping. If any one of these is broken, it's a devastating blow to the device - and while not broken as such, it's now clear that iOS 6 Maps' data is hugely deficient compared to that of the Google Maps app it replaces.
The iPhone 5 is still a stunning piece of hardware and an exceptional communication device with by far the best app roster of any phone. If you don't care about maps, it's the best smartphone you can buy. But if you do, you're better off with the Samsung Galaxy S III or HTC One X. That's why they're back at the top of our Top 10, with the iPhone 5 newly installed at number 3."
This story will evolve, and we're going to keep a very close eye on it. Future changes to iOS 6, upgrades to Maps or even the forthcoming Google Maps app could redress the balance once more - so make sure you stay tuned.

I've recently purchased a Red Swift - VDI early October 2011 and am pretty satisfied with the vehicle and the value of money (On road cost me Rs. 6,72,000 on road in Hyderabad). I've already completed 6300 Kms and have completed the first 2 free services. Is almost a pleasure to drive and own.
Pros: The Company has really given the New Swift 2011 a whole new makeover. Nice bold body lines on the outside, Bigger Head and tail lamps, Well designed front grill and much sharper edged front bumper. ORVM with indicators controlled electrically gives a superior feel.
Cons: Bigger bumper makes it look slightly odd when compared to the proportion of the other features/fittings on the back. Better Ground Clearance would have been a good differentiating factor from it's predecessor. Rear tail lamp design extend outside the lines of the metal body making it more susceptible to be hit by wandering 2 wheelers around the rear of your car in peak traffic. ABS missing in the mid variant was a real bummer considering that upgrading to their top model almost cost just about 1 Lakh more on road. Build quality of metals not as superior and heavy as the Polo.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Pros: The finer lines, inclusion of chrome finish on the dashboard, doors and steering in the VDI gives it a more plusher look for a Indian Hatchback model. Electrically operated ORVM is a plus point with the additional features of Key reminder, head lights still ON when leaving the car and low fuel warning sounds. Newer design for the AC Vent Grill. Sliding cup holder for the co-passenger, an all new speedo LED display with Kms to empty tank are like additional goodies in the Sweet bag.
Space for the driver and front co-passenger is comfy but that for the rear although slightly enhanced from the previous model is still not a wow factor.
Cons: Smaller parcel tray with an indent making it slightly difficult to fix rear audio system in models which lack an integrated music system. Driver seat height adjuster should have been a standard feature.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Pros: Pickup seemed amazing before the first service. Assume that this will be fine over time of using the vehicle. Fuel economy was at 14.3 kmpl for the first tank fulls of 42 litres. For the next it gave me about 15.5 kmpl which seemed decent with AC in city conditions. Am yet to try by luck with mileage on the highway.
Gearbox seems better than the earlier version. Reverse gear seems to have a problem at times which doesnt shift at the first attempt (could be the way i use the reverse).
Ride Quality & Handling
Pros: No body roll when taking sharper turns at higher speeds. Suspension feels better with the steering response better than the earlier version.
Cons: Braking is an issue at high speeds which might make one insecure about pushing the engine and yet being ready for the odd speed bump or unforseen animal or vehicle needing you to come to a sudden halt. Brake Assist and ABS should have been a must at least for the mid variant which is currently missing in LDI and VDI versions.
Final Words A good value for money but could have done better with certain features - something as basic as good braking.
Areas of improvement
- Better Brake assist
- Better Pickup at lower speeds.
- More features for the price quoted
- Should have had an optional variant with ABS like before.

I'm not too sure if the guys from Maruti Suzuki have actually fixed the braking issue over these last couple of months.
Might be nice to get an update from the gents and ladies who may have bought a new Swift VDI/VXi or lower versions over the last 3 months.
Tasha Shroff on 01 Mar, 2013 at 11:09 AM
Check out the new android app developed by swift. It has a awesome collection of songs. http://bit.ly/ZeB0as
Nipun Bharti on 25 Jul, 2012 at 05:15 PM
+1 to Ramesh,brakes are most important part of a car and I know Maruti have not done well on this in the lower variants of Swift not having ABS.
Ramesh Babu on 25 Jul, 2012 at 05:08 PM
Yes breaks in swift VDi is really awefulll. I have driven it cannot trust it on high speed. Better not to overspeed in VDi. My figo Zxi break is awesome compared to swift.
Umang on 24 Jul, 2012 at 10:31 PM
Loved it.!
Even i am a swift owner.Strange thing with your mileage.Mine has done 4000 kms and is giving 17.9 in city with a/c on.
And even i face the same problem with the reverse gear thing.

It can flavor fish, lamb, pork, poultry, cheese, cream, eggs, vegetables, avocados, apples, popcorn, salads, soups, sauces, and spreads. The plant is used to make green dye. The foliage and flowers dry nicely and add an airy touch to plant arrangements. Dill also can be grown in containers with some success. It is said to have some medicinal qualities.
History:Dill is native to the Mediterranean area and southern Russia. The name dill comes from the Norse dilla meaning "to lull." It was once used to induce sleep. In American history, dill and fennel seed were known as "meetin
Description: Dill has a tap root like a carrot, with one
long, hollow stalk coming from the root. The numerous yellow flowers are flat,

Cultivation: In spring, sow seeds in shallow drills about 10 inches apart in a prepared bed where they will stay. Firm the soil down and water well. Repeat the plantings for a continuous supply of fresh dill leaves. The soft, delicate seedlings do not transplant well and are easily blown over by strong winds. The plants do best in a sunny, sheltered area.
Companion planting: Dill and cabbage plants grow well together. Dill also helps corn, lettuce, onions, and cucumbers. The flowers attract honey bees to the garden.

No American men into third round for first time in over a century.
Wimbledon: United States tennis in a state of distress
What a stark statistic for the nation of Bill Tilden and Don Budge, John McEnroe and Jimmy Connors, Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi: It's been 101 years since no men from the United States reached Wimbledon's third round.
And the last time it happened, way back in 1912, no Americans even entered the oldest grand slam tournament.
By the end of Thursday, all 11 US men in the 2013 field at the All England Club were gone, with top-seeded Novak Djokovic accounting for the last one by beating 156th-ranked qualifier Bobby Reynolds 7-6, 6-3, 6-1. Earlier in the day, former top-five player James Blake lost to Bernard Tomic of Australia 6-3, 6-4, 7-5, while the qualifier Denis Kudla was beaten by Ivan Dodig of Croatia 6-1, 7-6, 7-5.
That trio joined the 18th-seeded John Isner, the 21st-seeded Sam Querrey, Ryan Harrison, Steve Johnson, Alex Kuznetsov, Wayne Odesnik, Rajeev Ram and Michael Russell on the way home.
"It's a tough stat to hear, but I still believe, right now, where US tennis is, not too many guys are in their prime. That's why the numbers are like that. But a lot of guys are, maybe, in the tail end of their careers and a lot of guys are coming up," said Kudla, 20, who is ranked 105th. "Maybe next year, or the year after that, things could change. You have to go through a little bit of a struggle to get some success."
Led by top-seeded and defending champion Serena Williams, the US women still are represented in singles at Wimbledon this year.
Williams extended her winning streak to 33 matches, the longest on tour since 2000, by eliminating Caroline Garcia of France 6-3, 6-2, while 18-year-old Madison Keys knocked off 30th-seeded Mona Barthel of Germany 6-4, 6-2.
Keys next plays the 2012 runner-up Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland, and Williams goes from a 19-year-old opponent, in Garcia, to a 42-year-old opponent in Kimiko Date-Krumm, the oldest woman to reach the third round at Wimbledon since the Open era began in 1968.
"I have so much respect for her. I think she's so inspiring to be playing such high-level tennis at her age," said Williams, who at 31 is the oldest No 1 in WTA rankings history. "And she's a real danger on the grass court, I know that. I definitely will have to be ready."
Already into the third round was No 17 Sloane Stephens, while yet another American, wild-card entry Alison Riske, beat Urszula Radwanska yesterday to join Stephens.
"I can't put my finger on why the women are doing better than the men," Reynolds said.
He wound up facing Djokovic with Centre Court's retractable roof closed because of the first drizzles of the tournament, which prevented five singles matches from starting and forced the suspensions of three others.
Reynolds was happy to be there, on his sport's most famous court, facing one of its best players. "You can't put a price tag on it," he said. "I'll keep so many memories from that match. I loved it. Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

Hey all!
I've just come across the metasploit persistence.rb script and thought it might come in handy. So I tested it out on a test machine by setting the script to run as an auto run script as soon as a session is created.
So I ran the payload on the machine but for some reason it just keeps looping, as in a session is created pretty much every 5 seconds.
This is both anoying and shouldnt happen.
Anybody know what I've been doing wrong?
In case it will help I've been doing this.

Hard Work Pays Off
It was the culmination of many months worth of work when the students of Mr. T Squad took top honors and $6000 in the Philip Morris/College of Business James Scholar Case Competition. Only the investment of effort was not limited to just those eager freshmen James Scholars of the Class of 2012. Included were committed deans and their staff members, Philip Morris representatives, alumni, development officers, and even the president of the University, B. Joe White.
Early in 2007, John Hedeman, the new assistant dean for honors worked with then Dean Avijit Ghosh to redesign the College of Business James Scholar Honors Program to better connect with the educational mission of the College. As a result, the program changed from simply a means to early registration privileges to a program filled with advantages and opportunities.
As the James Scholars matriculated last August, they were ushered into a new Honors Seminar led by Associate Dean Victor Mullins and Assistant Dean Collette Niland. With the help of Lois Meerdink, Assistant Dean of Business Career Services, her staff, and President White, students were indoctrinated in the rigors of professionalism as it relates to honorable behavior, social responsibility, career development, civic engagement, cultural competence and leadership.
It was an unusual arrangement when dean Hedeman negotiated for Philip Morris USA to sponsor the case competition. Like many companies who approach the College looking for ways to engage students as they enter the job market, Philip Morris representatives Kurtis Kochis and Chuck Glisson initially thought to engage seniors. Dean Hedeman seized an opportunity for both Philip Morris and his James Scholars by working to build a competition unlike any other.
The case competition presented students with a problem: how to attract students like themselves to work for Philip Morris USA after graduation. For their efforts, four each of first, second, and third place winners receive a cash prize and bragging rights. Second place winners received $750 each, while each third place winner walked away with $250.
All of the 48 participating students came away with much more than they realized. Despite the intimidating circumstances of presenting publicly to a corporate giant, they added an important rite of passage to their list of experiences. In performing an extensive project, complete with thoughtful analyses and focused presentation, they gained an initial glance into a future of business transactions typically reserved for juniors and seniors.
Bryan Macfarlane, Brock Jenkins, James Lenihan, and Lucas Schumann of Mr. T Squad; Jason Febery, Lisandro Tsai, Akrati Johari, and Gina Mastrangeli of Emporus, Inc.; and Bradley Fink, Joe Deutsch, Stone Zhou, and Varun Karkhanis of The Stoned Zhous, all experienced the thrill of winning after a lot of hard work. It is the kind of experience that lasts a lifetime.
Likewise, the many efforts paid off for Philip Morris representatives who forged meaningful relationships with future leaders and present partners, and who gained insight into attracting top students. The College also improved its working relationship with an important corporate partner and lifted the educational environment for James Scholars to a new level. Great things are happening in the College of Business.

It's been called a bubble, tent and sprung structure. It's only temporary, but now it's officially a winner. University of Cincinnati's Dining Pavilion has won the Innovative Achievement in Auxiliary Services Award, given by the National Association of College Auxiliary Services (NACAS).
Steve Sayers, assistant vice president for Campus Services, accepted the award in New Orleans Nov. 6. It recognizes UC's innovations in creating the Dining Pavilion, a temporary structure during MainStreet construction and renovation of the student union. The award honors innovations that may serve as models for other institutions.
Since the pavilion opened in March 2001, dining sales have increased, despite a 64 percent drop in seating capacity compared to the closed student union. Food service provider Aramark has achieved a 9 percent reduction in labor costs and an 8 percent drop in food costs. And to top it all off, after the MainStreet construction is complete in two and a half years when the Dining Pavilion is no longer needed, the university can resell it for 60 percent of its current value.
The award adds to the winning tradition in the Administrative Services division at UC. This summer, Administrative Services' Department of Facilities Management also won the top institutional honor awarded by the Association of Higher Education Facilities Officers (AHEFO). The Award for Excellence in Facilities Management was presented to James Tucker, associate vice president for Administrative Services, and Don Connley, director of maintenance and operations for Facilities Management.

Monta's first step is giving Golden State fits.
This video from Rasual just made me smile.
I really like the Dirk-Monta duo in Dallas. I wish Monta would have arrived in the Big D a couple years ago. I hope that Dirk can stay healthy all year because this Mavs team is decent. I will forever be a Dirk fan because of his 2011 playoff run, which I think is one of the greatest individual playoff performances in modern years.
Blair needs to stop shooting the Tony Parker floater, somebody should tell him that he sucks at it and damn how many times can he get blocked? everybody blocked his a** today.
Amazing 4th quarter by Curry there is nothing you can do there, good game.

lots of bad teams are paying an awful lot of money while being awful.
Not NBA related but dead funny
The two New York teams show us that dumping all of your draft picks and taking on a bunch of overpriced contracts might not be the most efficient way to build a contender.
sorry if already posted, but the topic of conference disparity seems to be of some interest to league bigwigs these days

On @SiriusXMNBA, NBA deputy commissioner Adam Silver said competition committee will look at whether divisions have outlived usefulness.

You know, the angle of a 48-50 win western conference team getting a lottery pick is something I hadn't thought of. The situation almost feeds into itself at that point, since there will always be equal number of lottery teams in each conference.
I might just vote for Danny for LOLs.
Kyrie Irving is officially the most overrated player in the NBA

Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley, who is actively campaigning for voter approval of a marriage equality law he signed earlier this year, said Monday night that his support for equality under the law is "very much informed" by his Catholic faith and his commitment to protecting the human dignity of every person in Maryland. Needless to say, the church hierarchy has a different take. The Baltimore Sun reports today that Baltimore Archbishop William Lori will co-host an anti-equality event on Wednesday night; his co-host is Derek McCoy, the Harry Jackson-affiliated head of the Maryland Marriage Alliance, which is leading opposition to marriage equality.
Speaking to bloggers on a call organized by Marylanders for Marriage Equality, O'Malley said he was confident that the campaign would be victorious if it is able to raise $2 million to get out the word and respond to ads from anti-equality forces that are expected to increase in volume and intensity between now and the election. Maryland is one of four states with marriage on the ballot this year in one form or another ballot measure and is widely considered to have a good chance at winning, given the state's Democratic leanings and promising polling numbers.
O'Malley said that expansive religious freedom language in the law was important to its passage and in keeping with the traditions of the state of Maryland. The referendum language makes clear that the law protects clergy from having to perform any ceremony that violates their beliefs, guarantees each faith control over its marriage doctrine, and "provides that religious organizations and certain related entities are not required to provide goods, services, or benefits to an individual related to the celebration or promotion of marriage in violation of their religious beliefs." Josh Levin, who directs the pro-equality campaign, said it is working with several hundred clergy, and said a volunteer group of equality-supporting Catholics is doing weekly phone-banks.

Neither Efficient nor Neutral, Ice Madness, The Horror The Horror, Get People Working, Home Drowning, Graphically Speaking
Although we speak about a 'global' equity market, the truth is that all markets are not created equal; each national market operates in cultural and political contexts that have a defining impact, and although structural and cyclical economic forces vie with each other for dominance, they often are irrelevant to big market outcomes.
It is a myth to think of globalisation as purely an economic process; in fact ultimately globalisation is defined more by political and cultural forces.
This analysis is beyond the approach of most economists and strategists because they believe in the efficiency and cultural neutrality of markets.
One of the sad things about this dangerous blindness in contemporary economics is that the founder of economics Adam Smith gave the discipline all it needed to incorporate politics and culture into its analysis of how economies actually worked, as my son would say, 'like, in real life'.
A deeply conservative Adam Smith has become a front piece for the unfettered virtues of the market as a long-deceased spokesperson – and therefore unable to quarrel with how his ideas have been misused – an ancient oracle for simple free market and profit-based slogans like the 'market is always right and can self-regulate'.
Yet, Smith, as noble laureate and Duke University economist Amartya Sen has argued (ed's note: starts at 6.20), has a balanced thesis for supporting society with multiple institutions in which the market was a necessary but not sufficient condition for success.
In Smith's analysis those other non-market institutions play a vital role in creating the conditions for best in class social and economic outcomes.
Among those institutions is the rule of law, public education and health, economic support for the poor, and market regulation to protect the public, and the better run companies.
In Smith's words, paraphrased for a 21st century audience, "the economy has two functions, first to give citizens the chance to become wealthy enough to take care of themselves, and second, to supply the state with sufficient revenue for public services."
Smith argued that the combination of these things was vital to a successful society, as I like to put it, that 'a strong economy and social justice are two sides of the same coin'.
And paraphrasing Sen, 'Smith's vital contribution to economics is that a society in balance will make room for the positive contributions of capitalism through market processes but also was acutely aware of the dangerous limitations of relying only on the market economy'.
Unfettered markets tend towards monopoly and worst, not best, practices requiring the state to get in the way for the good of society and the market.
The story of the unregulated mortgage market in the United States and its terrible legacy is a case in point.
The flip side to this of course is that solely state driven economies are also doomed to fail which is why Adam Smith was an advocate of free trade because of the tremendous benefit of specialization and its impact on productivity, Portugal's wine and England's cloth.
When Smith wrote his two important books The Theory of Moral Sentiments (1759) and The Wealth of Nations (1776) in the mid-18th century commerce was suffocated by the state, taxation was often without representation, and barriers to trade prevented anyone accept those in favour with the ruling political elite to prosper.
In those days the state's role was more to dole out favours than deliver best in class public services, a little like modern day Greece.
Smith's genius was that he saw the totality of the market, the role of economics, politics, and culture.
I suggest we should too.

Twin Virtues: Inequality of Outcomes & Equality of Opportunity©
Twin Virtues
Ultimately, the most successful societies find the balance between the twin virtues of inequality of outcomes and equality of opportunity.
The new politics must marry the twin virtues of unequal outcomes and equality of opportunity.
When too few get too much everybody loses.
Feminism is about women living their lives on their own terms, marshalling the resources of the society to make that possible, and men embracing this as vital to a successful society and their own liberation.
Can it be that striving for equality of opportunity however imperfect the process not only benefits the individual but also creates benefits for the society that are unintended but wonderful?
Economics must be a 'moral enterprise' as much as politics claims to be. Economic outcomes need to be framed in terms of right and wrong not just efficiency if only because these often align in surprising ways that are good for society and the economy.
My vision of Canada is that any Canadian child from a family of limited circumstance can expect to have a chance at lifetime of unlimited opportunities.
Free trade is a wonderful thing. Time and time again economists have proven that free trade creates enormous wealth for each country 'on the whole'. Historians have shown that free trade is usually associated with rising political, social and cultural liberty. The perennial problem is that free trade always creates tremendous disruption for thousands even millions of individuals often concentrated in one geography, and where the state is idle, not investing in best in class instruments of social justice, free trade can be a permanent ticket out of the middle class, down, not up.
Tax policy should be founded on the principle of generating steady tax revenues sufficient to maximise environmentally sustainable economic growth in order to fund fair government.
Public policy should be designed to decrease inequality before the law and increase equality of opportunity.
Capitalism is not the problem; the problem is what we do with capitalism.
Content is always more difficult to argue than conspiracy.
Let the state regulate and the market operate (most things).
Welfare strategies are best designed as a hand up, not as a hand out.
Political debate should not be fact free fighting.
Explanation lasts longer than eloquence.
Always favour empowerment over dependency.
The most enduring public figures are embraced for the causes they fought for and not the concept of themselves they hoped others would remember them by.
Find your voice and don't be the echo of somebody else.
It is possible to operate on two different levels: the practical, cautious and conservative; and the realm of ideas, open, free, and radical.

Illinois VentureTech, one of the nation's most ambitious technology-based economic development programs, is beginning to pay off, according to state officials.
Launched in 2000, the five-year program will plow $2 billion in state resources into education, research and development, health sciences and biotechnology, and information technology programs.
Illinois now is reaping a return on those investments in the form of top rankings in technology-related surveys, growing activity in business incubator facilities designed to nurture start-up science and technology companies, and increasing commercialization of ideas spawned in the state's research universities.
Illinois' chief technology officer Mary Barber Reynolds said VentureTech is changing how companies - particularly science and technology firms - view the state. Among other things, the broad-ranging initiative earmarks $650 million for government IT projects and directs another $800 million toward education and research-and-development initiatives.
"The Illinois business community is very enthusiastic, which wasn't the case a few years ago," she said. "They didn't see investment. When they see investment, they make additional investment."
The initiative pumped resources into government IT programs such as the Illinois Century Network, which connects more than 5,600 government agencies, universities, colleges, schools, libraries and museums. It also helped Illinois launch one of the nation's first statewide implementations of public key infrastructure (PKI) technology, designed to allow citizens, businesses and others to securely deal with government agencies over the Web.
Those projects and others propelled Illinois into a first-place tie in the 2001 Digital State survey conducted by the Center for Digital Government, the knowledge-management and research division of e.Republic. The annual poll ranks all 50 states on their use of technology to improve government services. By contrast, Illinois finished next to last in the 1998 Digital State survey.
Furthermore, Illinois now leads the nation in the number of high-technology jobs, according to a University of Minnesota study. And it's the country's second-best market for information technology jobs, according to Computerworld magazine.
"From my perspective, that's recognition that the state is moving in the right direction," said Reynolds. "It's simply an outside view that the state is making some strategic investments in the right place."
Commercializing Research
VentureTech is having a similar impact at Illinois research universities, said David Chicoine, vice president of economic development for the University of Illinois. For example, technology-licensing revenue - an indicator of how effectively research is being turned into marketable products - is growing at a 20-percent clip throughout the university system.
Over the past two years, the University of Illinois revamped its technology management processes in an effort to put more research into the hands of established and start-up technology companies. Furthermore, the university is working more closely with Northwestern University and the University of Chicago to expose new research to companies and investors interested in commercializing it.
"We don't nearly have the technology-based growth in the Midwest, even though we've got the horsepower with the public and private universities. It's just that other elements have not been brought together like we've seen on the coasts," said Chicoine. "Now, people are thinking differently about that. We now have people looking to us as a source of technologies for commercialization, and they're looking to us aggressively."
The university also is attempting to direct more technology licenses to local companies. "We've taken an 'Illinois first' licensing approach," he said. "We want to make sure all of the Illinois companies are connected with us and we're connected with them, so they have full information about the technologies that are potentially licensable from our campus."
While licensing changes deliver immediate gains, Chicoine expects VentureTech's investments in research facilities to generate long-term benefits. For example, the initiative is funding development of the Rare Isotope Accelerator Science Center at Illinois' Argonne National Laboratory and the Center for Nanofabrication and Molecular Self-Assembly


text: Reiterates Continued Commitment to Increase Shareholder Value Previously Determined Continental Grain's Assessment of a Break-up to be "Inherently Flawed" Based on Rigorous Analysis SMITHFIELD, Va., April 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Smithfield Foods, Inc. (NYSE:SFD) confirmed that it has received the presentation from Continental Grain Company. The company reiterates its commitment to review all alternatives to increase long-term value for all shareholders. Smithfield previously reviewed and responded to Continental Grain's March 7 th memorandum to the company's board of directors, which put forth many of the same points contained in today's presentation. The response can be found in Smithfield's April 1, 2013 investor presentation available here. C. Larry Pope, president and chief executive officer, commented: "Our number one priority is to create long-term value for our shareholders, and we welcome the perspectives of all of our investors. Consistent with this objective, we are continuing to review Continental Grain's presentation and will provide a specific response in due course. "Our board and management are focused on the implementation of our growth strategy that is working. We recently delivered the two best years of operating performance in our company's history, we have restructured and streamlined our Pork segment, drastically de-levered our balance sheet, returned significant cash to shareholders and reduced commodity exposure. As a result of our work, our stock price has nearly doubled since 2009 when Continental Grain resigned from our board. "Further, we believe that Continental Grain's analysis of the benefits of a divestiture of our Hog Production business and select European assets, which they have made before, is inherently flawed, based on an intensive and ongoing review of these and other alternatives by the board, management and our financial and legal advisors. "Smithfield's board, consisting of a balanced mix of directors who know our industry well, has a strong track record of taking aggressive action to enhance value for all shareholders."

Possibly a silly question, but I was pondering the effect on SEO of 'pretty URL' vs query string paths ( that is, actually using keywords in the query string e.g.:
domain.com/section/sub/docname.php vs domain.com/docname.php?sc='section'&sb='sub')
would thy rank reasonably similar and , other than perhaps the order of keyword appearance, is there another reason for the difference?
If your page is dynamic, and built on the fly from parameters fed in from the URL then you should use a query string, because this helps Google to understand your site structure, and to spider and index it accordingly. Rewriting it so that it looks like directory format is a bad idea (especially if you include the parameter names within the URL). As long as the parameter values are given as words rather than arbitrary numbers/strings, this is perfectly SEO friendly.
If your pages are essentially static then it's better to reflect that in the URL structure and to avoid query URLs. Having said that, as long as you use worded parameter values you shouldn't find it has too much of an impact on your SEO.
If you have a dynamic system but with just a single parameter then it's Ok to consider it as a static structure (as we do here).
At the end of the day, what Google wants is a URL structure it can understand, spider and index consistently and reliably. It isn't interested in enforcing arbitrary rules.
Thats good to know. I was thinking from the point of view of WP's 'pretty URL's. I am developing my own proprietary CMS ( dynamic site) NOT based on WP, and was pondering a bast practice. It seemed , to me, that as long as the keywords were there ( as opposed to meaningless #) that it woulnt make too much difference whether they are in the main URL or the query string. But I wanted to confirm

"The Virgin Daughters" Examines The Creepy Purity Movement
"The Virgin Daughters" is a documentary directed by Jane Treays (which aired in the U.K. last year) that follows a group of fathers and daughters as they prepare to attend a Purity Ball in Colorado Springs. I'm not sure if or when it will air in the U.S., but you can watch clips online and feel the creepiness. Apparently, one in six girls in the U.S. makes a pledge to her father to remain a virgin until marriage. In the documentary, Treays interviews a family with five daughters, all of whom have or will make a purity pledge to their dad, who says that strong male figures are at the core of this tradition. Gag. His eldest daughter remained a virgin until marriage, but, get this, she also didn't kiss or hold hands with her fiance until their wedding day. [Channel4.com]

Modern Family is one of the best shows on TV right now. It's hilarious, deals with real family issues, and has an amazing cast. Now, we all know Sofia Vergara and Julie Bowen are great, but we want to hear more praise for the younger cast of this show! The kids make the show so great and we think they need to get more recognition.
Sarah Hyland, Rico Rodriguez, Nolan Gould, Ariel Winter, and Aubrey Anderson-Emmons, make up the young cast of this hit show. It's clear that they are great actors, but how much do we really know about the kids of MF? Not much at all! So, we've dug up some awesome facts about these young stars that are going to shock you! Take a look at the gallery to see the facts we thought you didn't know about them! Check out the info and then tell us, which fact surprised you the most? Let us know in the comments below!
1. Noland Gould is a genius, literally!
He may not be so smart on the show, but Noland is pretty much a genius IRL. Noland has been in Mensa since he was four years old!
2. Aubrey loves Michael Jackson's
Aubrey loves the song so much she knows all of the lyrics and can even do the dance moves! That's one very talented 6-year-old!
3. Sarah was home schooled!
Sarah's mom home schooled her until she was in second grade. After that Sarah went to public school and graduated from the Professional Performing Arts School in New York.
4. Rico has a famous sister!
Rico's sister, Raini Rodriguez, is on the Disney show Austin & Ally! She plays the role of Trish.
5. Ariel got her start in commercials!
Ariel's first paying job was a Cool Whip commercial! She's been working ever since.
6. Nolan Gould has a serious doppelganger!
Jesse Eisenberg is 100% Nolan's doppelganger. How much do they look alike in this picture?
7. Her character used to be played by twins!
For seasons 1 and 2 of Modern Family the role of Lily was played by twin girls. When they needed to be replaced, Aubrey was cast to fill their spot!
8. Sarah was only in LA for 2 weeks before being cast on MF>!
At the age of 18, Sarah moved from New York to Los Angeles. After 2 weeks in LA scored a role in Modern Family.
9. Rico used to be a shy kid!
Before Rico started acting, he was very shy. He didn't even want to go in an audition room without his mom! Aw! After he started taking improv and acting classes he came out of his shell.
10. Ariel's in a band!
In addition to being a great actress, Ariel is also an amazing singer! She has a band called "WIckedSweet" with her best friend.

Oracle Dropping Commercial Support of GlassFish : My View
Oracle have just announced that commercial support for GlassFish 4 will not be available from Oracle. In light of this announcement I thought I would put together some thoughts about how I see this development.
I think the key word in this announcement is "commercial", nowhere does Oracle announce the "death of GlassFish" in contrary Oracle reaffirm;
GlassFish Server Open Source Edition continues to be the strategic foundation for Java EE reference implementation going forward. And for developers, updates will be delivered as needed to continue to deliver a great developer experience for GlassFish Server Open Source Edition
so GlassFish is not about to go away soon. In a similar fashion RedHat do not provide commercial support for WildFly and only provide commercial support for JBoss EAP. Admittedly JBoss EAP and WildFly are much closer together than GlassFish and WebLogic but WildFly and JBoss EAP are absolutely NOT the same thing.
The key going forward to the viability of GlassFish as a production platform is how the GlassFish community develops;
- How often does the community release binary builds?
- How open is the community to bug fixes?
- How much engineering resource does Oracle commit to GlassFish?

As expected, the final instalment of the Matrix trilogy has dominated box office charts around the globe, taking in more than $US200 million ($A280.8 million) in its first four days.
Although the opening figures sound impressive - $8 million in Australia and an estimated $US50.2 million in the US - The Matrix Revolutions hasn't delivered the booty achieved by its predecessor, The Matrix Reloaded, in those two countries. The latter, which was released in May, grabbed more than $11 million in its first four days on Australian screens, and $US91.8 million in three days in the US.
Exactly why the performance of the new Matrix has been somewhat less than revolutionary will no doubt preoccupy studio honchos. But releasing the two sequels within six months is, by any reckoning, a bold initiative that puts saturation thresholds to the test.
Second, the reviews haven't been good. Some have been especially negative: Peter Travers, writing for Rolling Stone, summed up with "The Matrix Revolutions sucks".
Elsewhere on the Australian chart, the Coen brothers comedy Intolerable Cruelty has landed the runner-up slot after two weeks on top, and the new Merchant/Ivory film, Le Divorce, which co-stars Naomi Watts, opened in sixth place.
The only other new entry in the top 10 was Seabiscuit, in ninth place on the strength of advance screenings.

The Melbourne JD (Juris Doctor)
3 years full-time (accelerated and extended options available)
Taught at a graduate level, the Melbourne JD (Juris Doctor) equips graduates to take a leading role in contemporary legal practice, the business world, government or community organisations.
Graduating with a law degree from world-renowned Melbourne Law School means that wherever your career takes you, your degree will be recognised as exceptional – both nationally and internationally. The JD curriculum allows you to build the core skills essential to a wide range of legal and professional careers. It also gives you the opportunity to tailor your studies to areas of particular interest through elective subjects.
As a JD student you will:
- Join other engaged and enthusiastic students in discussion-based classes and enrich each other's education
- Build employment skills by collaborating and interacting with other students in group work and through the practical learning opportunities in the elective program
- Have the opportunity to study overseas, and the chance to learn from a curriculum that tracks and responds to global legal developments
- Be part of a tight-knit community of graduates and learn alongside your supportive classmates
- Have the opportunity to join societies, edit journals, attend public lectures and participate in cultural events, moots and competitions
- Build a network for life through connections with your student peers, Law School alumni, mentors and University staff.
Career outcomes
The Melbourne JD leads to admission to the legal profession in all Australian jurisdictions, and can be used as a basis for seeking admission in many law jurisdictions overseas.
The Melbourne JD qualification is well-regarded by a versatile range of employers. Our most recent survey revealed outstanding employment outcomes for our JD graduates, with an employment rate of 98 per cent for the class of 2014. Our graduates are employed at national and international law firms, management consulting companies, financial institutions, non-governmental organisations (NGOs), aid organisations and government departments, to name just a few.

Careers and employment outcomes
Student perspectives
Experience student life
Participation and involvement outside the classroom can broaden your overall education experience. The University has a unique and wide range of activities, societies and services that give our graduates a broader life education – critical to the modern workplace, and ensuring a student experience that is intellectually stimulating, and socially rewarding.
The Law School has several student groups who represent the interests of its students. They run social activities, career networks, tutorials, mooting competitions and many other activities and programs to assist in your overall student experience.
Student perspectives
Applicants to the Melbourne JD must hold an undergraduate degree in a discipline other than law, or a law degree from a different legal system. We encourage students from a wide range of disciplines and backgrounds to apply.
Melbourne Law School considers each application individually and in its entirety. Selection is based on performance in two areas:
- Academic performance from all previous tertiary studies
- Law School Admission Test (LSAT) score and essay
All applicants must also meet the English language requirements of the University of Melbourne.
The LSAT
As part of the application process for the Melbourne JD, applicants need to register for, and sit, the LSAT administered by the Law School Admission Council (LSAC). It is an independent, international written test, designed to measure aptitude for graduate legal study. It focuses on reading and verbal reasoning skills, and no knowledge of law is required.
Applicants are encouraged to sit the LSAT as early as possible to allow time for resitting the test if required. In the past, the JD Selection Committee has seen applicants substantially improve their LSAT score in the second sitting.
There are strict LSAT registration deadlines and fixed test dates. The LSAT can be taken in any Australian capital city and in many countries around the world.
LSAT scores are valid for five years and the LSAT can be sat three times in two years. Melbourne Law School will use your highest LSAT when assessing your application.
Melbourne Law School also runs information sessions about the LSAT.
What Marks Do I Need to Get Into the JD?
Unfortunately we can't tell you this precisely, because it changes from year to year and because we take into account both your results at university and the LSAT. But here are some useful tips based on previous experience:
- If you have an average mark across your tertiary studies of 70% (or equivalent), you will be competitive in the JD Selection process. You will still, however, need to do sufficiently well on the LSAT.
- If the average mark across your tertiary studies is 80% or above, you will have a very strong chance of being admitted, although your LSAT will still be taken into account.
- If you have an average below 70% and you have a serious case to make under the Graduate Access Melbourne (GAM) scheme it may be worth applying. If you have been affected by health, personal or financial difficulties, or if you are from a rural or indigenous background or a current holder of a humanitarian visa, you should apply through the GAM scheme. If you are not sure how this works or whether it applies to you, please contact the Admissions Team via email@example.com or +61 3 8344 6190.
- If your average is below 70%, you may still get a place if you have a very high LSAT score. Applicants can improve their scores after trying several times, so you might like to try more than once to maximise your results. As a rough rule of thumb, you should be trying for a result at least in the top 25 percentile of the LSAT if your result is under 70%.
In working through Admissions, the selection committee looks at a wide range of factors in addition to just looking at these results; for example, whether the marks that make up your average are on an upward or downward trajectory; whether you have undertaken honours or graduate studies; whether you have some particularly strong or weak marks and, if so, where and when during your study; and the strength and fluency of your LSAT essays.
Guaranteed entry
The University of Melbourne has a guaranteed entry policy for high achieving school leavers, allowing them to secure places in the JD provided that they meet certain requirements. Guaranteed pathways are available for Commonwealth supported places (CSP), domestic fee places and international fee places.
Requirements for the guaranteed entry for the Melbourne JD
- Commonwealth supported place
Eligible for school leavers who:
- Achieve an ATAR (or equivalent) of 99.9 in studies undertaken in Australia from 2007 and commence and complete an undergraduate course at the University of Melbourne.
Applicants eligible for guaranteed entry will not be required to complete the LSAT.
- Domestic fee place
Eligible for school leavers who:
- Achieve an ATAR (or equivalent) of 99.0 in studies undertaken in Australia from 2007 and
- Commence an undergraduate course at the University of Melbourne and complete the undergraduate course with a H2A (75%) weighted average.
Applicants eligible for guaranteed entry will not be required to complete the LSAT, however, if you seek a CSP or Melbourne JD Bursary, you need to submit a general entry application and sit the LSAT. You will retain your guaranteed pathway while being assessed for a CSP or Melbourne JD Bursary.
- International fee place
Eligible for school leavers who:
- Achieve an ATAR (or equivalent) of 99.0 in studies undertaken in Australia from 2007 and
- Commence an undergraduate course at the University of Melbourne and complete the undergraduate course with an H2A (75%) weighted average.
Applicants eligible for guaranteed entry will not be required to complete the LSAT.
We are waiting on further information from the Australian Government on the Higher Education Reform Package announced in the 2017-18 Budget.
The changes proposed in this reform package have not yet been passed into legislation.
These proposed changes will not affect fees for most international students.
However, under the proposed changes, from 1 January 2018 most New Zealand citizens and most Australian permanent residents who are newly enrolling will no longer have access to a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) and will be treated as full-fee paying domestic students and will be eligible for HELP loans.
Students in these groups who are already enrolled and presently hold a CSP will retain this while they are enrolled in their existing course.
Information on Australian fee-paying places
You can check the Australian Department of Education for updates and further information.
Commonwealth Supported Places
Australian citizens, permanent residents of Australia and citizens of New Zealand are automatically considered for a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) when they submit their application for the Melbourne JD.
Melbourne Law School awards a substantial number of Commonwealth Supported Places (CSPs) with a minimum of 20% awarded on access and equity grounds under the Graduate Access Melbourne program. The remaining CSPs are awarded on the basis of published selection criteria.
As a Commonwealth Supported student your tuition costs are subsidised by the Government. Students who commence study in a Commonwealth Supported Place at the University of Melbourne will pay the student contribution amounts by subjects in the disciplines and courses. View details of student contribution amounts.
Australian citizens and students who hold a permanent humanitarian visa who will be resident in Australia for the duration of the unit can apply for HECS-HELP which helps students pay their student contribution for unit(s) of study in which they are enrolled as a CSP student.
Domestic and International Fees
The tuition fees for the Melbourne JD in 2017 are:
$4,832 per 12.5 credit point subject
The indicative cost of the standard three year program for students commencing in 2017 is $120,668. This is an estimate only that is provided to assist you in making your decisions. The University guarantees that fees will not increase by more than 5% for subjects in any year.
You may be eligible for the government-sponsored loan FEE-HELP, which enables you to defer your contribution and pay it back over time through the tax system. Visit Study Assist for more information.
Please note, there is currently a gap between the amount you can access through FEE-HELP and the cost of the Melbourne JD. The FEE-HELP amount that will be available to students commencing in 2017 is $104,337* over a three year degree. This will leave a gap between FEE-HELP and the cost of a standard course of approximately $16,740 that will need to be paid during your JD degree. Please see below for a range of forms of financial assistance that may be able to assist you with this cost.
* This amount is an estimate only based on a 1.5% increase in FEE-HELP per year. The actual level of increase for FEE-HELP in 2018 and subsequent years has not yet been announced.
Scholarships and financial assistance
There are a number of options available to help Melbourne JD students finance their studies, including scholarships, financial aid programs and loan schemes such as FEE-HELP and HECS-HELP.
Melbourne Law School offers a range of bursaries and scholarships that recognise outstanding academic achievement and provide support to deserving students in financial need.
The Melbourne JD Bursary
Melbourne Law School offers at least 100 Melbourne JD Bursaries to domestic fee-paying students. The bursaries will entitle each student to JD fee relief of approximately $16,500. Bursaries will be awarded based on financial need, academic achievement or a combination of both.
More information on scholarships
Opportunity for High Achieving Fee-Paying Students
The Law School also awards the top two highest achieving fee-paying students (based on first year JD results in the eight compulsory subjects) a Commonwealth supported place (equivalent) for the remainder of their degree starting in Semester 1 of their second year. No application is required. All fee-paying first year JD students who completed all seven of the graded first-year compulsory subjects in their first 12 months of the degree are automatically considered.
Applying for February 2018 commencement
Strict application deadlines apply and there is no mid-year intake. Applicants can apply at any time for 2018 until the closing dates:
- Domestic applicants: 1 September 2017
- International applicants: 1 November 2017
Applicants are required to have a valid Law School Admissions Test (LSAT) (within 5 years). Opportunities to sit the LSAT in 2017 include February, June or September.
Applicants who apply earlier in the year can strengthen their application after receiving an outcome should they wish to be reconsidered for a place if unsuccessful, or wish to be more competitive for the November ranking for a Commonwealth supported place (domestic applicants only), or Melbourne Law School commencing student award (if eligible).
Applications will be assessed between March and November 2017. Applicants will be notified of an outcome within four to six weeks.
We will notify you of your outcome via the email address listed on your application. Please add email@example.com to your safe senders list to ensure any correspondence from us arrives in your inbox.
The Melbourne JD commences in early February with a compulsory Orientation program and an intensive summer subject prior to Semester 1.
Application Checklist
- Domestic Applicants
Domestic applicants must be an Australian or New Zealand citizen or Australian permanent resident, or holder of a permanent humanitarian visa.
Successful applicants who have been offered a place in the JD will be notified whether they have been awarded a Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) or Melbourne Law School commencing student award (if eligible). Notification of fee type will be sent via email by 30 November.
- International Applicants
International applications are made directly to the University of Melbourne or through one of our Overseas Representatives. Note that while a fee will apply to sit the LSAT, no additional $100 University application assessment fee is required for Melbourne JD applicants.
Even if you are registered with the Law School Admission Council's LSDAS or Credential Assembly service, you still need to lodge an online application with us. Please include an addendum with your name and LSAC account number at the top and a list of documents you would like us to download as part of your application for the Melbourne JD. You will also need to arrange for LSAC to release these documents to us once we have submitted a request for your report.
Applicants can update their application after receiving an outcome should they wish to be reconsidered for a place if unsuccessful.
