An MBA in Accountancy is well suited for people with an interest for numbers, and an ambition to reach the top echelons of a company. 1-year programs like MS, MAccy and MPA are a cheaper option that leads straight to careers in accountancy, but they tend to limit future growth to just one field. On the other hand, MBA programs can broader the career options to more than just Accounting.

David Welch, former CFO turned Sarbox whistle-blower, now has the "flag and seal of the United States" on his side in his battle with Cardinal Bankshares, his attorney says.
Marie Leone, CFO.com | US
July 7, 2006
The bank so far has said the claim is bogus and as I have follwed this case, virtually no evidence besides the CFO's claim has been submitted to date. The DOL has always been terribly biased toward employees, never wanting to be confused by the facts. The bank should have their day in court. If they lose, they lose.
Posted by Gary Cademartori | July 07, 2006 04:56 pm
The employee should be re-instated if his whistle blowing was the cause of detecting underlying accounting malfeseance by the bank in question. It's time for corporate employers to treat employees with greater respect, especially when they note practices that are inconsistent with the intent and spirit of the law--in this case the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Identity Development, logo Re-Design
User Interface Design
Web Site Design
Update VANSAs previous identity into a more contemporary and creative space. VANSA is a non-profit organisation who provide the platform for various artists from assorted disciplines to interact as well as helping these artists find work in a variety of sectors. VANSA consists of VANSA National, VANSA Gauteng and VANSA Western Cape.
The new identity was to be showcased at the Joburg Art Fair 2010.
VANSA is the hub for artists, helping to foster innovation and create things of enduring value through art. Through our exploration we discovered many of the values and attributes of VANSA are inherent to that of a creator archetype.
In creating a unique icon inherent to the values of the brand, we focused on using positive and negative spaces to create a solid structure. The icon represents a sub-culture of artists, who are united through the VANSA network and is depicted in a style synonymous with the contemporary arts.
VANSA operates in three main sectors, VANSA National, VANSA Gauteng and VANSA Western Cape. The logo mark allows for all three sectors to maintain a unified identity.
Thank You!

Sutro Baths
Coordinates: 37°46′48″N 122°30′49″W / 37.78000°N 122.51361°W
The Sutro Baths was a large, privately owned public saltwater swimming pool complex in the Lands End area of the Outer Richmond District in western San Francisco, California.[1][2]
Built in 1896, it is located near the Cliff House, Seal Rocks, and Sutro Heights Park,[1] the facility burned down in June 1966 and is now in ruins. The site is within the Golden Gate National Recreation Area and the Sutro Historic District.[3]
On March 14, 1896, the Sutro Baths were opened to the public as the world's largest indoor swimming pool establishment, the baths were built on the western side of San Francisco by wealthy entrepreneur and former mayor of San Francisco (1894–1896) Adolph Sutro.[2][4]
The structure was situated in a small beach inlet below the Cliff House, also owned by Adolph Sutro at the time. Both the Cliff House and the former baths site are now a part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, operated by the United States National Park Service. The baths struggled for years, mostly due to the very high operating and maintenance costs. Shortly after closing, a fire in 1966 destroyed the building while it was in the process of being demolished. All that remains of the site are concrete walls, blocked off stairs and passageways, and a tunnel with a deep crevice in the middle, the cause of the fire was determined to be arson. Shortly afterwards, the developers left San Francisco and claimed insurance money.[5][6]
Media is stored by the Library of Congress as part of the American Memory collection and available for viewing online:
- Sutro Baths, no. 1 and Sutro Baths, no. 2, filmed in 1897 by Thomas A. Edison, Inc.[7][8]
- Panoramic view from a steam engine on the Ferries and Cliff House Railroad line route along the cliffs of Lands End, starting at the Sutro Baths depot, filmed in 1902 by Thomas A. Edison, Inc.[9]
- Panoramic view from the beach below Cliff House at Sutro Baths, filmed in 1903 by American Mutoscope and Biograph Company.[10]
Infrastructure and facilities[edit]
The following statistics are from a 1912 article written by J. E. Van Hoosear of Pacific Gas and Electric.[11] Materials used in the structure included 100,000 sq ft (9,300 m2) of glass, 600 tons of iron, 3,500,000 board feet (8,300 m3) of lumber, and 10,000 cu yd (7,600 m3) of concrete.
The baths were once serviced by a rail line, the Ferries and Cliff House Railroad, which ran along the cliffs of Lands End overlooking the Golden Gate, the route ran from the baths to a terminal at California Street and Central Avenue (now Presidio Avenue).
During high tides, water would flow directly into the pools from the nearby ocean, recycling the two million US gallons (7,600 m³) of water in about an hour, during low tides, a powerful turbine water pump, built inside a cave at sea level, could be switched on from a control room and could fill the tanks at a rate of 6,000 US gallons a minute (380 L/s), recycling all the water in five hours.
Facilities included:
- Six saltwater pools and one freshwater pool. The baths were 499.5 feet (152.2 m) long and 254.1 feet (77.4 m) wide for a capacity of 1,805,000 US gallons (6,830 m3). They were equipped with 7 slides, 30 swinging rings, and 1 springboard.
- A museum displaying an extensive collection of stuffed and mounted animals, historic artifacts, and artwork, much of which Sutro acquired from the Woodward's Gardens estate sale in 1894.[12]
- A 2700-seat amphitheater, and club rooms with capacity for 1100.
- 517 private dressing rooms.
- An ice skating rink.

March 29, 2013
LAS VEGAS - The University of Nevada men's tennis team went down to the wire in a closely contested dual match with No. 62 Cal Poly but came up just short, falling by a score of 4-3.
The Wolf Pack (8-7, 0-1 MW) has now dropped its past two matches after the loss to the Mustangs (8-6). Injuries have been plaguing the Wolf Pack over the past couple of weeks, including in the loss yesterday to UNLV, and they played a factor again today. Co-captains Victor Ouvrard, who normally plays from position one, and Quentin Mege were unavailable to play. Even though the team came up just short, head coach Erik Burton was proud with the way the team competed.
"It was a heartbreaker," he said. "The guys fought very hard despite injuries and sickness, and I couldn't be more proud today as each player at every position was ready to compete and leave his heart on the court. This could only bring positive things for the future."
Nevada snatched four victories on the day, three in singles and one in doubles. The singles wins came from positions four through six, but the most crucial point was from position two, which turned out to be the deciding match point. Fernando Sunago battled with Marco Comuzzo through three sets before being topped 6-7, 7-6, 7-6.
Andrew Poustie won his second match in as many days in singles action after he powered past Naveen Beasley in straight sets 6-4, 6-4. Ryan Andrada was victorious from position five, getting past Matt Thomson 7-5, 7-6. The final singles victory came from Philip Hinojosa, his first of the dual match season, as he pulled out the three set thriller against Gannon Daynes 6-3, 5-7, 6-4.
The lone doubles victory of the day came from the pair of Robert Allan and Moez Echargui in position one, as they squeezed past Beasley and Andre Dome 8-6.
The Wolf Pack is in action again on Sunday when it continues Mountain West Conference Play with Fresno State at 11 a.m.

Assassinate High Overseer Campbell
- Samuel drops you off in the Distillery District right next to a drainage pipe, along the beach. He mentions the walls of light. Walls that basically vaporize anyone who cross them.
- Move toward the bridge you see above, as soon as you're in control. You'll see two city guards dumping bodies from the bridge. Below is a lone guard watching the activities. Keep note of the tower on the right hand side of the bridge.
- Up ahead, take out the guard directly in front of you, hide his body, then cross under the bridge. Head toward the tower mentioned. Move around the backside of it, then climb the chain. Hop over to the ledge and you'll see a dead man's camp site. Grab your first BONE CHARM (1 out of 5) here.
- Now head back down, but don't head toward the white marker to the wall of light just yet. We'll do some optional side quests to net more runes. Use the wall of light marker to pretend it's facing North. Head East to reach Granny Rags.
(Optional) Granny Rags
- Head east and soon, you'll see a woman on a balcony throwing out garbage onto the street. Use the wooden ramp to reach the balcony she was on. Enter her house, then head downstairs. Don't talk to her yet. Open the door right next to her. It will lead out to a shrine, where you can find a RUNE (1 out of 7).
- Now head back inside to talk to Granny Rags. She'll ask you to take care of the "Gentleman Callers" outside her door and give you her key to the front door.
- Head upstairs to the balcony, so the front door stays locked. Take care of the "Gentleman Callers" how you see fit, then head back inside to talk to Granny Rags. She tells you to head upstairs to grab another RUNE (2 out of 7).
- After picking up the rune, Granny shows up behind you and asks you to do something else. She wants you to go to Clavering Blvd. and enter Doctor Galvani's lab and use the rat viscera to contaminate the Bottle Street Gang's elixir still. To get to his lab, go to Clavering Blvd, past the first wall of light.
- I'd suggest heading to the second floor of the estate, then entering through the balcony. When you're ready, head inside. Enter the door to the right of the table in front of you, then head left down the hallway.
- Follow the hallway, then look through the keyhole attached to the first door on the left. You'll see a guard talking to a maid. When they are finished talking, follow the guard and head upstairs. You can sleep dart the maid just in case.
- Remove the guard upstairs however you see fit, then enter Galvani's lab. Explore the lab to grab items that will be converted to gold. Head for the huge bookshelf where you can see distinct marks on the floor. Use the red book on the second shelf from the bottom. It's more highlighted than the rest of the books. The shelf will open.
- Grab the "Rat Viscera", then leave the way you came or you can explore the rest of the building. Once you're done, head toward the Bottle Street Gang's Distillery.
- Upon entering, use the metal beams on the right hand side, propped against the barrels to get some height on the environment. Follow the beams, to the roof. The roof has a basket on top of it with some goodies. From the roof, drop down to the pipes to reach the door housing the distillery.
- Once inside, be careful of the waist high tripwire just ahead. Hop onto the railing to the right, to bypass the tripwire, then climb the chain above. Blink your way to the pipes below. Follow the pipes to reach the "Elixir Still".
- Inside the "Elixir Still", there's a lone guard. Take him out. Also in this room is a BONE CHARM (2 out of 5), high above, on one of the rafters.
- To reach the elixir still, head down the stairs, then crouch under the narrow path, under the barrel, next to the metal door. Activate the "Elixir Still", then add the "Rat Viscera" to it. Grab some items from off the table.
- Head back out the way you came. Follow the wall on the left as you sneak along the pipes, then drop down to the office below. On the wall, next to the window of the office, is a key. Grab it, then open the metal door to exit.
- Once outside, back track, using the pipes, the roof, and metal beams, to exit the distillery.
- Head back to Granny Rags for your reward, another RUNE (3 out of 7). You should be able to purchase more powers now. I'd suggest grabbing "Agility". It lets you jump much higher by holding down "Space Bar".
(Optional) Griff
- To reach Griff, head toward Granny Rags' balcony. Equip the heart and you'll see a bone charm nearby. Follow the marker to the bone charm.
- You'll hear a commotion below. Two thugs are trying to reach Griff, but he's behind a doorway, that's barred by wooden planks. Take care of both of the thugs hounding him. When they're gone, swing your sword at the planks to break the planks.
- Talk to Griff and he'll sell you items. When you're done checking out his items, head upstairs to grab the BONE CHARM (3 out of 5).
Back to High Overseer Campbell
- Head toward the second wall of light, using the rooftops and pipes to your advantage. When you reach it, you'll be on Clavering Blvd. Look for an alleyway to the left of the wall of light. It will lead down and around. You might need to go around and pass by Galvani's balcony to reach it unseen.
- When you make it down the alleyway, head left, then up the stairs on the right. You'll come upon a fight. Loot the bodies as you keep following the path up. When you emerge onto the street, enter the small metal outpost on the left, to grab a RUNE (4 out of 7).
- When the coast is clear, head for the door that leads to "Holger Square". Up ahead you'll see Martin being held prisoner underneath a monument. Take care of the guard talking to him, then pull the lever to the left of Martin, to free him.
- Up ahead, you'll see a metal fence. Head left, then hop onto the spiked canopy. You'll overlook two guards chatting, initiating a sidequest to grab the "Branding Instructions". Look up, to the left, and you'll see a ledge high above that wraps around the building. If you grabbed "Agility" for the higher jump, you can reach the ledge using a combination of jump and blink. It might also be possible with a normal jump.
- Using the ledge, sneak around the building. Use blink again, to reach the building across from you, where the red banner is hung. Follow the ledge, then enter the building through the windows on the right. Once inside, look up and use the lights above to get a height advantage.
- Keep blinking from light to light, to reach the room with the branding instructions. Take out the guard that patrols the area. There will also be another one that enters the room through the front door, so be careful.
- Once you've grabbed the instructions, exit the way you came from, through the window above the door. From here follow the white marker to enter the meeting between Campbell and Curnow.
- When you're inside the room, there's a RUNE (5 out of 7) above the fireplace. Grab it quickly, then head for the table. Switch the poison to Campbell's glass, then hide under the table. Hiding under the table gives you a great opportunity to pickpocket Campbell's blackmail journal.
- Campbell will soon die because of the poison. The guard will think that Curnow did it. Curnow is actually strong enough to escape himself, but just in case he doesn't, save the game before the confrontation. You'll eventually get the notification that Curnow has escaped.
- With Campbell assassinated, leave the area, through the front doors. Make a left, then run a short way down the hallway. Quickly make a right, down the winding staircase. There's a light you can blink on top of in the middle of the winding staircase so you can gauge the situation.
- Take out the guards, or wait for the coast to be clear. Don't go to Samuel just yet. Enter the metal door closest the bottom of the staircase to access Campbells secret room. To access the room, locate the green eye on the bust.
- Inside the room, grab the RUNE( 6 out of 7), and then the "Painting of the High Overseer". Now exit the area, then head to the door marked "Samuel the Boatman".
- It's all rooftops here. Eliminate the first guard as you blink to the first rooftop. Use the heart to locate one rune and two bone charms.
- The last RUNE (7 out of 7) is located inside one of the buildings. Break through the glass above to gain entrance to the room. The BONE CHARM closest to the RUNE has a trip wire, so be careful. There are also rats down below. Use the chains to climb down, then blink on top of the boxes and the table. Loosen the vice to grab the BONE CHARM (4 out of 5)
- Finally, the last BONE CHARM (5 out of 5), closest to Samuel, can be accessed from behind the building. The side that's facing toward the shore. You'll need to swing your sword and break the planks nailed on the window to reach it.
- With all RUNES and BONE CHARMS found, head to Samuel the Boatman by climbing the chain down. Talk to Samuel to head back to the pub.

Two men chase and catch man allegedly attempting to abduct boy
Two men have saved a toddler from abduction in a dramatic chase after the boy was snatched from his mother's side in the middle of a suburban shopping centre.
This column originally appeared on The Courier-Mail by Bill Johnston, Rose Brennan and Kate McKenna.
The men gave chase after the boy's mother let out a piercing scream in the heart of busy Lutwyche City shopping centre, in Brisbane's inner-north.
The pair chased the alleged offender for about 30m before holding him in a citizens' arrest, pinning him to the ground until police arrived. Police believe the stunning daylight incident was random.
The little boy was dropped to the ground after the alleged offender realised he was cornered in an alley, witnesses claimed.

The witnesses said the man showed no emotion and said nothing until police arrived.
A 29-year-old man was last night charged with one count of child abduction.
Witnesses told The Courier-Mail the little boy, 3, had been sitting with his mother and sibling at a cafe in the centre when the man allegedly snatched the child.
"The mother was in shock and just yelling 'help, help, help can you get my child'," store owner Maree Deflavis said. "They were sitting at the table and the child was just snatched out of the mother's hands."
Simon Brooks, 45, was at the same cafe as the family and also gave chase.
"I thought it was a bag snatch and then looked closer to me and saw people in distress so I grabbed my wallet and ran after him," he said.
The area at Lutwyche Shopping centre where the child was allegedly snatched.
Mr Brooks said the men bolted out the centre's fire exit and when he caught up to them they had cornered the man and were holding him down, waiting for police. Witnesses said the man dropped the child before he ran through the exit.
"(A witness) said to me that she saw him throw the child to the floor just basically outside the front of the Aldi shops He didn't just put the child down he just threw the child down and in her words, she heard a crack I just feel a bit sick about that side of things," Mr Brooks said.
Mr Brooks said the tearful mother was comforted by bystanders until police arrived.

"It's a very good sign that people didn't just stand around idly by and that when it happened they acted quickly. We need to take our hats off to that these people, the sense of community that spurred these people into action I think that's something to be proud of," Mr Brooks said.
The boy and the mother were checked by ambulance officers at the scene.
He told how the alleged offender stayed quiet until police arrived.
"He was actually very quiet He didn't say a word until much after when the police were there … and there were a few of us standing around and he just said something obscene and that was it."
The man is expected to appear in the Brisbane Magistrates Court today. The Child Protection Investigation Unit is investigating.

Women Score Higher In IQ Tests, Win Battle of The Sexes Once And For All
The victory bell has been rung and the battle of the sexes can come to a close once and for all. (Just kidding!) A new study has found women are now surpassing men on IQ test scores.
In the past, women have straggled behind men on IQ tests. However, a study conducted by New Zealand-based researcher James Flynn, an IQ testing expert, found women are scoring on average five points higher.
The study collected data from 500 men and 500 women, mostly under the age of 18, from Argentina, South Africa, Estonia, Australia and New Zealand. All had taken the standard IQ test called the Raven's Matrices or the Raven test.
Of course, one study does not definitively confirm that all women are smarter than all men (which would be a misandrist argument). Also, the IQ tests studied were mostly from teenagers, whose brains are still developing. And of course there is the notion of what "smarter" even means. But the results of this study do show us that the increasing number of opportunities available to women are helping them not only close the IQ test gap between the sexes but seize more educational opportunities available to us.

Panasonic has outed the Lumix DMC-GF5, the world's fastest autofocus Micro Four Thirds camera, capable of locking in on its subject in 0.09 seconds.
And a zippier eyeball isn't the only improvement Panny's added to the GF5's spec sheet. Although, like the Panasonic Lumix GF3, it has a 12MP sensor, Panasonic reckons this new sensor – paired with the Venus processing engine – gives you quality equivalent to a 16MP camera.
Read the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3 review
Panny's also added AVCHD and MP4 support for movies, plus a stereo mic. Other improvements include a pronounced leather handgrip, new filters and effects, plus an overhauled user interface.
It'll be available come May or June in a choice of black or white, and will set you back in the region of £450 with a standard (14-42mm) kit lens.

"Anecdotally I can tell you that the take-up rate is fairly small," said Smyth.
The take-up probably causes more trouble than any other part of the mechanism and it should be carefully watched.
The principle of the take-up mechanism is shown in Figure 44.
Here the give-up, the negation of the lower passions, synchronizes with a take-up, the assertion of a beatitude.
This controls the movements of a lever called the take-up, pivoted to the machine (Fig. 4).
He inserted the loose end in the take-up reel and motioned to Scotty.
The reels upon which the film is wound are mounted above and below—the upper is the feed reel and the lower is the take-up reel.
Singer improved upon this by furnishing his machine with a spring take-up lever, partially controlled by the needle bar.
In the Motiograph take-up, Figure 45, the necessary friction and slip are all in the belting.
He got the projector from its case, plugged it in, using his father's desk as a table, and put on the take-up reel.

How do you say you don't want a new inquiry without actually saying it? ASIC chairman Greg Medcraft showed how on Friday.
Asked if he supported the Senate economics committee's majority recommendation that its inquiry into ASIC and the CBA banking group's financial advice scandal be followed by another inquiry or even a royal commission, Medcraft said it was a matter for the government.
He then went on to say, however, that the Senate inquiry had received 450 submissions, that other inquiries, including the Ripoll Inquiry into financial products and services in 2009, had covered similar ground, and that David Murray's inquiry into the Australian financial system was in the pipeline. There had been ''a lot of opportunities to look at these matters'', Medcraft said, before adding again that it was the government's call.
There is, however, a clear case for continued investigation of the CBA scandal. It is needed because we still can't be sure how extensive the misbehaviour inside the CBA was or how effectively it is being addressed.
A compensation process is being implemented by the bank and monitored by ASIC, but the committee's majority report talks of multiple problems with the system and notes that ASIC and CBA belatedly acknowledged that compensation had been applied inconsistently.
Damningly, it concludes that CBA deliberately played down the seriousness and extent of the problems inside its financial planning business in an attempt to avoid ASIC scrutiny, contain adverse publicity, and minimise compensation payments.
It says it is concerned that there are many more affected clients who are not being fairly compensated; that its confidence in ASIC's ability to effectively monitor the compensation process has been severely undermined; and that CBA's credibility is so compromised, responsibility for running the process should be taken away from the bank.
There is a dissenting opinion, from Liberal senator David Bushby. He says CBA has already owned up to governance failures, has reformed its advisory business, and has paid $51 million in compensation
Further taxpayer-funded inquiries would not deliver ''any greater level of understanding or financial restitution'', Bushby says, adding that they may in fact prolong the emotional strain on victims.
The uncertainty that the committee majority highlights trumps Bushby's assertions, however.
Is $51 million enough? Almost certainly not. Expect CBA to announce a larger compensation pool soon.
Has CBA reformed its advice business? It has made changes, but it's impossible to know if they are enough because CBA has not comprehensively explained them.
There have been no high-level executive departures as a result of the scandal, either. That might also be a space to watch as the CBA board reads a report that accuses the bank of deliberately playing down the seriousness of the scandal, and as the bank comes under pressure from the government to lance its wound and get financial services off the front page.
Would a new inquiry and an independent compensation process finally define the dimensions of the debacle or go nowhere, as Bushby asserts? Unclear. Only additional investigation eliminating the conflict of interest inherent in CBA running its own compensation process can provide the answer. Do we really want to turn down the opportunity?
Of course the real question is does the Abbott government want to turn down the opportunity: and as it beds down changes to Labor's Future of Financial Advice reforms that were watered down in the face of widespread criticism, the signs are that it wants a quiet life.
Bushby's dissenting opinion occupied only six pages in the Senate committee's 519-page report, but Finance Minister Mathias Cormann said on Friday it made a ''very persuasive argument that yet another inquiry might not be the best way forward''. Prime Minister Tony Abbott pointed to the fact that David Murray's big financial system inquiry was under way.
The Murray inquiry is going to look at some of the committee's recommendations. The report asks it, for example, to consider recommending stronger obligations on financial product issuers to limit the risk that unsophisticated investors will buy products from them that are unsafe.
Product issuers could be subject to ''more positive obligations'' to deliver suitable products, the committee says. Stronger statements about the suitability of a product for a particular investor could also be required, and the range of products available to unsophisticated investors could be restricted.
Those are changes the big financial product creators, including the banks, would probably oppose. ASIC, on the other hand, has arrived at a view that disclosure regimes on their own do not protect investors. It would probably support them.
Senate committee recommendations for changes in the the way ASIC operates can also be considered by the Murray inquiry.
Its broad brief to examine the structure of the Australian financial system and come up with changes that future-proof it does not extend to running a forensic examination of CBA's financial planning business and client losses that it created, however. A new inquiry into the CBA's debacle and an independent compensation process is required to do that.

Willits man who dragged granddad behind truck pleads guilty
Published 4:50 pm, Tuesday, April 15, 2014
Willits, Mendocino County --
A Northern California man accused of killing his 84-year-old grandfather by dragging him behind a pickup truck for nearly 6 miles has pleaded guilty to first-degree murder.
The Ukiah Daily Journal reports that 24-year-old Kenneth Wilkinson entered his plea in Mendocino County Superior Court on Monday, just as jury selection was set to begin. In return for his plea, prosecutors dropped a special circumstance of torture.
Authorities were called to a Willits area home in March after family members reported Richard Mel Wilkinson missing. Deputies ultimately discovered a trail of blood and body parts leading to his body, which was found in a ravine.
Latest news videos
Public Defender Linda Thompson has said the younger Wilkinson was impaired by drugs and suffered from mental health problems.
Wilkinson is scheduled to be sentenced May 9.

IPhone 4S Restores Investors' Faith in Apple's 2011 Quarterly Earnings
Tiffany Kaiser

Investors expect a successful holiday season for Apple as well, but 2012 is unclear for now
Apple's shareholders have been sweating it out over the last couple of months as they saw the company's famed leader, former CEO Steve Jobs, step down and allow Tim Cook to take the reins. But despite this eventful period of time,
the iPhone 4S
blew past all previous iPhone sales records and restored faith in investors' eyes.
In addition to the replacement of Jobs, investors also worried about the growth of Google's Android mobile operating system, a bleak economic outlook, decreased consumer spending, and a relaunch of Microsoft and Nokia into the mobile war. Some investors even worry that Apple's share have "gone too far, too fast."
But Apple has a lot of advantages in its favor as well. For instance, iPhone 4S pre-orders hit
one million in the first 24 hours
of availability, and reached
4 million within the first weekend
. This is more than double what the iPhone 4 achieved.
But many contribute this blowout sales record to some uncommon factors. For instance, this is the first iPhone launch that included Sprint as a carrier, racking up some extra sales due to new availability.
While this next event occurred after the initial iPhone 4S pre-order weekend, some investors say that
the BlackBerry outage
, which spread across Africa, the Middle East, Asia, Europe, the United States and Canada, helped Apple pick up a few extra sales after the release of the iPhone 4S on October 14.
Investors predict knockout results from Apple's July-September period, and also believe that the upcoming holiday season will be positive for Apple as well thanks to the iPhone 4S and the iPad 2.
For the September quarter, Wall Street expects 20 million to 22 million iPhone sales, a little above 4 million Mac sales, and 10 million iPad sales.
Current fiscal fourth-quarter revenue predictions are at $29.6 billion and earnings per share at $7.38.
While 2011 is looking good for Apple according to investors, it's unclear what 2012 will hold for the tech giant. But some say a third version of the iPad is expected, and may help catapult Apple into one of the top ranks once again.

In a 2001 issue of Christian Scholar's Review Dr. Michael Horton asks the question, "Is Evangelicalism Reformed or Wesleyan?" This question may seem strange to some, especially those who would not think to identify Evangelicalism solely with either tradition. This is exactly the point. In pitting these two positions against each other, as well as considering other theories about the theological roots of Evangelicalism, Dr. Horton shows that there is no single theological tradition that can claim to be the "rightful heir" of modern Evangelicalism. The implication of this is that modern Evangelicalism can have no definable "core", no set of beliefs that easily labels some "in" and others "out." In light of this, Dr. Horton offers two potential paradigms through which we can view the current state (and the future) of Evangelicalism.

Also, many thanks to Manuel for the miniBSD tutorial, it's been a huge help.

X Factor Australia Winners Single
What You've Done To Me is the not-so-debut single by Samantha Jade, the winner of X Factor Australia. The single managed to claim the #1 spot on iTunes the night of her win (funnily enough taking it from her X Factor mentor, Guy Sebastian) and has remained #1 since. Samantha's self titled debut album containing What You've Done To Me, and recordings of the songs she performed on the show will be released December 7.
Album tracklist -
01. What You've Done To Me
02. Heartless
04. Wide Awake
04. Freefallin'
05. Everytime
06. Run To You
07. Scream
09. Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)
10. Where Have You Been

When you work for the media, you get a lot of press releases. And I mean a LOT. Most of what lands in my inbox are press releases. Some of them are useful; some of them are less useful; and some of them… well, some of them just make me go, "…I'm sorry, what?"
Case in point: Yesterday I received a "client intro" from a PR firm I've never heard of introducing me to an online dating service they represent. This in and of itself isn't that bizarre; having met my SO of more than four years on an online dating site, I'm all for dating on the interwebs. No, the weird stuff didn't kick in until I discovered what this particular online dating site specialized in. Out of respect for the poor PR agent whose job it is to represent this site, it shall remain nameless; however, I can summarize it as follows: It's geared towards matching absurdly rich, attractive people with other absurdly rich, attractive people.
Here's the message in full:
"Good afternoon, I'm writing to let you know that we now represent [SITE NAME] and want to make sure we're in front of each other on related topics.
"My client offers the most expensive online dating service in the industry and is full of verified millionaires from around the world. We have lots of sources that have had success in finding love on [SITE NAME] and we can certainly make those connections."
"If you are interested in getting more information, or would like to speak with the CEO, we are hear [sic] to make that happen."
Read Decoding Dating Profiles: The Top 10 Guys You Want to Avoid
…There is so much weird here that I don't even know which part qualifies as the absolute weirdest. Is it the use of "hear," rather than "here"? Is it the failure to mention the name of this almighty CEO we might speak with, should we so desire? Is it the sentence, "We have lots of sources that have had success in finding love on [SITE NAME] and we can certainly make those connections"? (I don't even know what this means, by the way. I assume that it's meant to tell me how successful the service is and that it's great at making matches, but let's face it: That right there is not a real sentence).
After much consideration, I arrived at the conclusion that it might be this doozy of a selling point: "My client offers the most expensive online dating service in the industry."
Now, I am not part of the one percent, so it's possible that I just don't understand the draw here; as far as I know, though, "expensive" does not necessarily mean "better." True, sometimes it does—for example, I feel one would not want to scrimp on something like, say, safety equipment for a mountain climbing expedition—but many, MANY times, it does not. At all. I suppose it might useful for sorting out the plebeians from the upper crust for extremely wealthy people who can't bring themselves to associate with anyone who makes less than six, seven, or eight figures a year, but… well, that just makes you sound like a jerk. Not really something to be proud of.
Oh, and to top it all off, this thing got mailed to me not once, but twice. To be fair, I often get duplicates; usually, though, a duplicate means that something got sent both to our "editorial @ bettyconfidential" email address, which gets forwarded to the entire editorial staff, as well as to my own individual email address. This time, though, it got sent to my own email address twice in the space of two minutes. That's just overkill.
I'm totally not knocking the entire one percent, by the way; I'm sure there are plenty of nice people up there who don't care what their partners make. But here's a little lesson in PR: Don't pitch a client to a media outlet without checking to make sure their demographics line up first.
Carry on, Bettys!

Main Tera Hero featuring Varun Dhawan, Ileana D'Cruz, and Nargis Fakhri is a rom-com, directed by David Dhawan. The much-awaited flick released today after a lot of promotion.
Main Tera Hero is a no-brainer that annoys everyone even with a normal IQ. Yes, you need to keep your brain at home before watching this comedy, that doesn't mean there is a license to show anything in the pretense of a movie. As a movie, Main Tera Hero doesn't work at all. Varun Dhawan has been overtly promoted and hyped up who is just a film old has not proven his acting prowess unlike his Student Of The Year.
David Dhawan has tried too hard to make his son next Ranbir Kapoor. The screenplay of the film is so bad. Varun Dhawan no doubt has a lot of female fan following which is more for his looks rather than for his acting prowess.
Ileana and Nargis have done their part as glamour dolls. Overall this film doesn't appeal much to the audience. Here are some critics review from leading publications. Click the pictures to know more...
Indian Express: 1 1/2 Stars
Main Tera Hero movie, Varun tries everything in his repertoire to be this hero: he fights, dances, and tries to be funny, topping it all up with a man-boob-mobile-nipple moment.
NDTV : 2 1/2 Stars
Varun Dhawan pumps every ounce of strength into serving the film's avowed purpose. D'Cruz and Fakhri provide ideal foils to the male lead although the latter's character is sketchy and her Hindi diction way too dodgy.
India Today: 2 Stars
I wouldn't recommend that you spend money on multiplex tickets for Main Tera Hero, even if you like mindless comedies this could be a decent DVD watch.
Times Of India: 3 1/2 Stars
Main Tera Hero is a glittering vehicle for star son Varun Dhawan to drive, which he does with practiced panache. However, even more than Junior, MTH has his dad David Dhawan stamped all over it.

As soon as this edifying chapter was ended, Mr. Effingham commenced the solemn rites for the dead.
"In doing which, I fear, you will concede all the merits," said Mr. Effingham.
But he used a match instead, while Mrs. Effingham watched him apprehensively.
He then turned to the ladies and Mr. Effingham, and repeated his salutations.
A celebrated diamond, in the possession of the emperor of Russia, is denominated the Effingham or Russian diamond.
It happened that the owner of the ship, Mr. Effingham, was on board.
"We ought then to send for her," resumed Mr. Effingham, again reaching towards the bell.
The Washington and the Effingham were burned by the British in 1778.
The door swung to, and I could hear Effingham's carpet slippers padding softly away.
As Wyeth saw Effingham, he observed that it lay very differently from Attalia.

I have taken clomid on days 5-9. Last night I had sex and I started bleeding but nothing on tampon through the night and nothing this morning. I have had a problem before about having AF for a long time like 21 days. My DR had told me that clomid should help stop the bleeding. I am confused now because I am supposed to have sex on days 12-14 which would be my days to ovulate and this bleeding is making me lose hope. I am so confused and frustrated. I am also taking 50mg of progesterone daily.

When University of Montana chemistry professor Don Kiely founded Missoula's Rivertop Renewables in 2008, he ambitiously hired on a handful of environmentally minded scientists, along with some heavy hitters from the business world.
"I knew right out of the gate that we had to shoot to build a really big company," Kiely says.
Two years later, Kiely, now retired from UM, is getting closer to fulfilling that vision. In fact, the Missoula City Council this week unanimously provided a critical endorsement of the company's bid to secure a $202,500 grant from the state-sponsored Big Sky Economic Development Trust Fund, which is designed to aid job growth.
"I think Rivertop Renewables is the most exciting project going on in Montana right now," says Jessica Allred-Meyers of the Missoula Area Economic Development Council, which has been working with the company to secure the grant. "It's pretty exciting."
It's exciting because Kiely is doing groundbreaking work in what he's dubbed "progressive chemistry." Before retiring from UM in 2008, the chemist developed a method to inexpensively take plant sugars and convert them into massive quantities of the biodegradable chemical glucarate. The biodegradable chemical is capable of replacing environmentally harmful minerals and petroleum-based compounds used to manufacture commercial and industrial products like road deicer and laundry detergent, thereby potentially reducing contamination in ground water and local streams.
"The basic premise, from my point of view, is that we have technology that can be useful and environmentally advantageous," Kiely says.
Rivertop currently employs 11 people, including COO Mike Kadas, Missoula's former mayor. Anticipating new revenue streams—the company will find out by the end of the year if it's received the Big Sky grant—Kadas says the company plans on hiring 27 new employees during the coming months.
"We expect to double, actually triple our size within the next two years," Kadas says.

iShares S&P National AMT-Free Municipal Bond Fund
MUB invests in investment-grade U.S. municipal bonds. The ETF has net assets of $3.6 billion, a yield of 2.8% and an annual expense ratio of just 0.25% — or $25 for every $10,000 invested.
Pros: Munis, which are issued by local governments to raise money, tend to be less risky than corporate bonds; U.S. municipal debt also tends to be safer than emerging-market issues. Municipal bonds' tax-free status can be a benefit as well. MUB has a three-year average return of 5.6%.
Cons: Munis might be safer, but they are not default-proof, as the recent news out of Detroit proves. MUB's performance this month is its worst since September 2008.
Verdict: MUB's pain might be investors' gain; the selloff has dumped shares of the fund into the bargain basement. And savvy investors appear to have found the muni market's bottom — MUB was up over 2% by midday Wednesday.

Nobody on the Pitt football team expected to get a breather during the bye week.
Good thing, too.
Coach Paul Chryst treated practice like the middle of training camp, even though the next game — Friday at Syracuse — was more than a week in the future.
"Coach had us going hard every day," wide receiver Cam Saddler said. "That was something different."
Saddler, a fifth-year senior, said that was the first time he could remember the team wearing pads during practice when there wasn't a game to play that week.
"With our last coach (Todd Graham), we weren't in pads a lot, really," he said. "Coach (Dave) Wannstedt used to put us in some pads, though, but I don't think during bye weeks."
Chryst set up scrimmage situations, with the first-team offense tangling with the first-team defense. At the end, he matched the younger players against one another, with the veterans on the sideline, shouting encouragement.
"It was competitive," Saddler said.
Said Chryst: "(We were) doing some 'good against good' and trying to maintain playing and adjusting (to game situations), so that we don't have a big adjustment to the speed of the game."
Maybe Pitt needed a change in its off-week regimen. The Panthers have lost five of their past seven games after a week's rest. Chryst didn't want his team resting on its two-game winning streak. After all, the Panthers (2-2) have played only half of their games against FBS schools, so each success must be seen in that light.
"It wasn't all perfect the last two games," he said, "so I hope we're getting better and not just trying to ride that wave."
Pitt plays six games in the next six weeks, with four on the road. It will be a grueling test to determine whether Pitt can challenge for the Big East championship in its last season in the conference.
"I feel like everyone has gone to work in the last week and a half," Saddler said. "We want to win. We are on a roll. We are feeling good about ourselves."
Quarterback Tino Sunseri said he spent time with the video machine, looking at "the good, the bad and the ugly" of his season.
He has increased his yardage total every week, but the competition will get tougher. Among the upcoming opponents are three unbeaten teams — No. 19 Louisville, No. 9 Notre Dame and No. 22 Rutgers.
Even Syracuse (1-3) will present a challenge for the Panthers. The Orange lead the Big East and are 27th in the nation in total offense, averaging 487.5 yards per game.
Saddler said, if necessary, the Panthers can match Syracuse blow for blow. After all, Pitt is less than a yard behind the Orange in offensive productivity (486.8).
"I don't think it's going to come to it, but if it comes to a shootout, our guns will be loaded," Saddler said. "We'll be ready to go."

Cleaning, Canadians & Jackee Harry
I love my cleaning lady. Her name is Maria and I don't know what I would do without her. She makes me happy and I look forward to her coming to my home more than any holiday. I am a very neat, organized, and clean person, but she is magic. She comes in and turns my home into a palace. She is brilliant at her job and if I ever lose my job, I will eat Top Ramon everyday if it means I can keep her employed. I really love and respect her.
Maria came to my home today and I just walked in and floated on air from room to room admiring her work. The thing is, I spent 2 hours yesterday cleaning my home so she wouldn't think I was a slob. I did all my laundry, although she tells me she will do it, I went through my home and straightened up, put things away, and changed the beds. Why is it that I am cleaning up for my cleaning lady? Does anyone else do that?
Not only do I clean up in anticipation of her coming, but I don't like to be home when she is here. I don't want to be in her way, and I don't want her to judge me. She never would of course, but I wonder what she is thinking as she cleans my home. I plan my schedule around her schedule. It is ridiculous really, but that is how I roll. I needed to get out of the house today so I made plans to meet an old friend for coffee.
I have known my friend "Lisa" for about 15 years. Our kids went to preschool together. When my son went on to Day School, her daughter went to a different school and we lost touch. There was never a falling out, we simply drifted apart because when your kids are young you are friends with the parents of your kids friends. I would see her occasionally but as our kids grew up we completely lost touch with other.
Lisa recently found my blog and sent me a message on Facebook to say hello and offer me support about my recent breakup. It was really very kind and I was immediately reminded of what a lovely girl she is. She also happens to be Canadian. I am proudly Canadian and there is just something about my people that is special. Canadians have a certain thing that I can't quite explain, but if you are Canadian, you get it.
I have a Canadian flag tattooed near my bum so that no matter where I am sitting, I am always in Canada. My son has duel citizenship and although I have lived in America for over 20 years, Canada is home. My family is there, my lifelong friends are there, and my heart is there. I had not seen Lisa in over ten years but spending time with her was like being home. It was as if we had been together yesterday. I love this girl.
We talked about our kids, work, life, and Canada. She is a pistol. Our cup of coffee turned into 3 hours of therapy. It was all very cathartic. She made me laugh, made me think, and actually called me out on a bit of my crap. Being with her made me happy. We have a history together in terms of our kids and being Canadian, but it is also a new friendship as life is so much different now than it was ten years ago. We are now women.
We used to be young mothers raising our kids, but with our kids older, and life being complicated and consuming, we have experiences now that shift how we talk, what we talk about, and ultimately made us friends by choice, not the obligation that comes when your kids are friends. To Lisa, I freaking love you and you made my day. Not just because you got me out of the house for Maria, but because you are fabulous. You truly are.
I left Lisa and went to the mall. I have decided in light of my now being single, I was going to treat myself to some new bras and underwear. A great bra can change how you walk and talk, so in the interest of getting my sexy back, I thought rocking some sexiness under my current uniform of pajama bottoms and the Englishman's t-shirt might help. I went to Victoria's Secret to shop with an hour to kill before Maria was finished.
I stopped by Starbucks of course and as I was in line waiting for my latte, I checked my Twitter. I have a bit of a Twitter addiction and really look forward to hearing from those who follow me. Today however, was special. Today I got a tweet from a woman that I have loved for a very long time. I remember watching her on TV and wanting to be her friend. She was funny, sassy, quick witted, and super cool. She is Jackee Harry.
My Keeping it Real blog is all about reality television and my new favorite reality show is Married to Medicine. One of the stars of that show is a woman named Quad and when she speaks, her tone and attitude remind me of the divine Ms. Harry. I tweeted that Quad reminded me of Jackee and today Jackee tweeted back asking who Quad was. Really? I think I actually started clapping while in line at Starbucks. Jackee Harry!
I wrote her back of course and told her who Quad was, then let her know I thought she was divine. She tweeted the obligatory "xoxo" back, which I translated in my head to be, "Hi Ilana. You're fabulous. Let's meet for lunch and be best friends." I just looked at her tweet again and without even realizing what I was doing, I clapped again. I really just think she is so great and I smile when I think about her. Jackee Harry rocks.
It has been a great day. I am currently rocking a gorgeous pink floral bra that makes me feel like a lingerie model, reconnected with my fabulous Canadian friend Lisa, and am one step closer to being best friends with Jackee Harry. I am doing good today and will be better tomorrow. I am a lovely girl and good things come my way all the time. The key is to pay attention, say a prayer, breathe deeply, and keep the faith.

Control Systems
System automation takes multiple routine activities that previously would require multiple user actions to accomplish and condenses them down to simple or even singular actions. A single activity selection on a control system can automate numerous functions making the users setup simply one of choosing the desired activity. These choices can typically be accessed through a wide variety of mediums and platforms, including button pads, touchscreens, smartphones, Pad devices or web browsers. DCI knows what to automate in a system - and what should not be automated - based on years of experience in understanding the nuances of making systems easy to operate by regular people.

- yes get an emulator. or an AR, and enter in a 7 page long code, and then you can do that, you even get to pick the level, the type, but not the gender, but I don't recommend it because it fries the game. Slay Talk "Shadows wonder why we scream."23:51,6/11/2012 4,527
- Any other method that does not harm the game (as with emulators, I need this team on DS, so emulators are out)? --Thenewguy34(Other) 23:59, June 11, 2012 (UTC)

The 38-year-old has not fought since retaining his title with a sixth-round win over Vitali Klitschko in June and Steward claims that could have been his final appearance.
"Lennox won't fight before the new year and almost certainly not after that," Steward told the Daily Express newspaper.
"Lennox won't fight again - I am as sure of that as I can be.
"I am not saying he definitely won't go back, but there is very little chance he will return again.
"Lennox has done all he has to do in the ring. He has won the world title and is the undisputed heavyweight champion in everyone's eyes.
Lewis has reduced his number of fights markedly over recent years with his last fight before Klitschko an eighth-round win over Mike Tyson in June 2002.
Responding to Steward's comments, Lewis's ex-manager Frank Maloney said he hoped his former fighter had decided to call it a day.
"What Lennox Lewis has achieved is unbelievable for British boxing," Maloney told BBC GMR.
"But he's got nothing else to prove. All he can do is damage his legacy. The mind might still be willing but, at 38, the body's getting weaker.
"There's no-one out there for him and he should retire and enjoy life".
