[Question] ||| "What are the side effects of the H1N1 vaccination?"
[Answer] ||| "The H1N1 influenza vaccine is expected to have a similar safety profile as the seasonal flu vaccines, which have proven to have a very good safety track record.
Hundreds of millions of seasonal flu doses have been given worldwide over the years with only rare serious side effect. The most common side effects following flu vaccination are mild and may include soreness, redness, and/or swelling where the shot was given, headache, muscle aches, low-grade fever and nausea. These symptoms usually begin soon after the shot and last for 1-to-2 days. Life threatening reactions to these vaccines are rare, but those who have severe (life-threatening) allergy to chicken eggs or any other substance in the vaccine should not be vaccinated.
The viruses in the flu shot are killed (inactivated), so you cannot get the flu from a flu shot.
The viruses in the nasal-spray vaccine are weakened and do not cause the severe symptoms associated with flu illness. Some of the 2009 H1N1 formulations will contain the preservative thimerosal (those in multi-dose vials), but despite a number of sensationalistic reports regarding this ingredient it has proven to be safe over many years of use. If you still have concerns over this ingredient, some H1N1 vaccines in single dose units will be available that are preservative free. There have been rare reports in those receiving vaccinations of Guillain-Barre syndrome, which is a rare disease in which the body damages its own nerve cells. In the final analysis I strongly believe the benefits outweigh the risks and vaccination is the best way to prevent influenza and its complications."

UPDATE: Chris Klein Busted for DUI
American Pie star/that guy who made that coked out Mamma Mia! video Chris Klein was arrested for DUI this morning after swerving all over the 101 like Lindsay Lohan trying to murder an assistant. (Jury pool tainting, HIYO!) TMZ reports:
Law enforcement sources tell us a CHP officer stopped Klein on the 101 freeway in Los Angeles at 3:13AM.
31-year-old Klein was arrested after failing a field sobriety test, we're told.
According to the police report, Klein was "observed weaving from the #3 lane into the #2 and #4 lane westbound US 101 at Woodman Ave."
You really have to feel bad for Chris Klein. He used to bang Katie Holmes when she was hot only to find out she's willing to go years without sexual intercourse because a midget told her aliens give him Jesus powers, and now this. Some might say, he brought it upon himself by drinking and driving, but those people clearly don't understand how delicious and convincing booze is. Right now it's telling me I don't need pants in this Starbucks and that everyone wants to hear my deepest thoughts screamed in their face. "THIS PLACE SHOULD SERVE PANCAKES!"
UPDATE: Police are telling TMZ Chris Klein blew three times the legal limit and had a dog in a car which is just plain stupid. There's your designated driver right there.

Speak of the Yahoo layoff devil. Just an hour ago I posted a blog about Yahoo's pending earnings results, which will be announced after Tuesday's market close, in which I made this comment: (Also see: Note to Yahoo: Layoffs aren't a turnaround strategy) Part of the problem for Yahoo, of course, is that it no longer has a strong identity, other than as a company from which you can expect a big round of layoffs every year or so. Now it appears Yahoo has accelerated to a monthly layoff schedule. The company announced Tuesday it will terminate the employment of 1 percent of its workforce, or 100 to 150 people. This is after a massive round of layoffs in mid-December (happy holidays!), when Yahoo gave pink slips to 650 to 700 employees. When the company announced the layoffs in December, it at least pretended to be sorry, as well as appreciative of the efforts of the laid-off workers, saying, "Yahoo is grateful for the important contributions made by the employees affected by this reduction." Now it doesn't even bother with that. Here's today's statement: The personnel changes we are making are part of our ongoing strategy to best position Yahoo! for revenue growth and margin expansion and to support our strategy to deliver differentiated products and experiences to the marketplace. We'll continue to hire on a global basis to support our key priorities. Today's action impacts approximately 1% of the global employee base. Weasel-words alert: They're not "personnel changes," Yahoo. They're layoffs. So do the layoffs portend good or bad news regarding fourth-quarter results? We'll know in a couple of hours, but at this point I'm sure not expecting an upside surprise. And if the company does turn in some good numbers, the now-jobless workers no doubt will be thrilled.

Week of Jan. 19-25
January 19
1918—The founder of Ebony and Jet magazines, John H. Johnson, is born on this day in rural Arkansas City, Ark. Shortly after the death of his father, Johnson's mother moved the family to Chicago where Johnson attended high school during the day and read self-help books at night, laying the intellectual and motivational foundation for the eventual building of his publishing empire. Interestingly, among Johnson's classmates at Chicago's DuSable High School were Nate King Cole, Redd Foxx and future businessman, William Abernathy.
January 21
1773—Poet Phyllis Wheatley, born in 1753, was freed on this day in 1773. Kidnapped in Africa and sold as a slave when she was only 7 years old, Wheatley would become Black America's first poet. She grew up in a prosperous Boston family, which allowed her to learn to read. She not only mastered English but also excelled in Greek and Latin. Her first book of poetry received rave reviews in the United States and Europe.
1941—Singer and political activist Richie Havens is born.
1942—"Big Band" leader Count Basie and his Orchestra recorded their famous "One O'Clock Jump" for Okeh Records in New York City.
1963—Former professional basketball great Hakeem Olajuwon is born in the West African nation of Nigeria.
1971—Twelve members of the Congressional Black Caucus boycotted President Richard Nixon's State of the Union Address to protest his refusal to meet with them or address issues of concern to African-Americans.
January 22:
1822—"From slavery to wealth" is the phrase which best describes the story of Barney L. Ford, who was born into slavery on this day in 1822 in Stafford Court, Va., the product of a Black woman and a plantation owner. He was raised on a plantation in South Carolina but with the aid of the "Underground Railroad," he escaped and headed west through Chicago (where he met his wife) to the gold fields of California where he was denied the right to stake a claim because he was Black. After being cheated by a shady lawyer, he headed to the Denver, Colo., area and in time built a barbershop, a restaurant and then a fine hotel. He also built a hotel in the Central American nation of Nicaragua. Despite obstacles and setbacks such as racists bombing his hotel, Ford kept bouncing back and over time became one of the wealthiest and most influential men in Denver. After 1860, he used his influence to fight for Black rights in Colorado.
1931—Sam Cooke is born in Clarksdale, Miss. He is considered by many "The Father of Soul Music." The son of a minister, Cooke began his career with a gospel group known as the Singing Children. He then became a member of the famous Soul Stirrers. When he switched to secular music, he combined Gospel and the Blues to produce Soul. Among his best known hits were "You Send Me," "Everybody Loves the Cha Cha Cha," and "Twisting the Night Away." He was shot and killed as a result of a misunderstanding involving a woman at a Los Angeles motel in 1964.
1948—Two time heavyweight boxing champion George Foreman is born on this day in Marshall, Texas.
2006—Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers scores 81 points in a 122 to 104 victory over the Toronto Raptors. The score was the second highest by a single player in the history of the National Basketball Association.
January 23
1821—Minister Lott Cary leaves the United States with a group of freed slaves to establish a colony on the West African coast. In doing so, the group lays the foundation for the establishment of the nation of Liberia. Cary became acting governor of the settlement in August 1828 but died accidentally in November 1828. Nevertheless the colony survived even though it had to fight off attacks from native Africans and slave traders. Liberia became an independent republic in 1847. In 2006, it elected its first female president.
1891—Pioneering Black surgeon, Dr. Daniel Hale Williams, helps found Provident Hospital in Chicago, Ill. The hospital becomes one of the main teaching and training facilities for Black doctors and nurses who had frequently been denied entrance to White-owned medical facilities. It was also at Provident in 1893 that Williams achieved international fame by becoming the first American surgeon to perform open heart surgery.
1964—The 24th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution is ratified. It abolished the poll tax which had been used in many Southern states to prevent Blacks from voting. Interestingly, the Republican controlled legislature in Georgia in 2006 passed a voter identification law which many Blacks complained was no more than a poll tax in disguise.
1976—Paul Robeson, perhaps the greatest combination of actor, singer, athlete and political activist ever produced by Black America, died on this day in Philadelphia, Pa. During his life, Robeson not only achieved a brilliant career on stage and in early movies, but he was also an ardent fighter for Black rights and socialist causes. As a result he was the target of a massive government campaign of disruption and character assassination.
1977—The highly acclaimed television mini-series "Roots" begins airing on ABC. The series was based on a novel by Alex Haley, who also wrote the "Autobiography of Malcolm X."
January 24
1874—Arthur Schomburg is born Arturo Alfonso Schomburg in Puerto Rico. After moving to New York City in April 1891, he, overtime, becomes known as the "Sherlock Holmes" of Black history because of his relentless digging for Black historical truths and accomplishments. Reportedly, his drive to discover Black history was sparked by a 5th grade teacher who told him, "Black people have no history, no heroes, no great moments." He eventually collected over 10,000 volumes on Black history in America, the Caribbean and Latin America. His collection became part of the New York Public Library system.
1885—Martin R. Delaney (1812-1885) dies on this day in Xenia, Ohio. Delaney was perhaps the leading Black nationalist of the 1800s. After fighting in the Civil War to end slavery and becoming the first Black field officer in the U.S. Army, Delaney became disillusioned with America. He began to advocate Black separatism and/or a return to Africa. He was a journalist and a physician who wrote several books including one detailing how ancient Egypt and Ethiopia were the first great civilizations long before ancient Greece. Although relatively unknown today, Delaney was also brilliant. Abraham Lincoln once told his secretary of war Edwin Stanton about Delaney saying, "Do not fail to meet this most extraordinary and intelligent Black man."
1993—The first Black U.S. Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall dies on this day in 1993. Unlike current justice Clarence Thomas, Marshall was a true progressive and fighter for Black rights having spent years with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, waging ongoing battles with the legal establishment to protect and expand rights and opportunities for African-Americans.
January 25
1851—The first Black Women's Rights Convention is held in Akron, Ohio. The keynote speaker was anti-slavery activist Sojourner Truth.
1966—Constance Baker Motley becomes the first African-American woman appointed to a federal judgeship. She takes the bench in the Southern District of New York. Motley was a major civil rights hero helping win several important cases during the 1950s and '60s. Among the cases was the landmark Brown v. Board of Education case, which desegregated the nation's schools. She worked for the NAACP Legal Defense and Education Fund and helped Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in several of his legal battles. Born in 1921 in New Haven, Conn., Motley died in 2006.
1980—Black Entertainment Television, the first Black owned company listed on the New York Stock Exchange, begins broadcasting from its headquarters in Washington, D.C. While still Black programmed, BET is now owned by media conglomerate Viacom.

Today's News Synopsis:
Bank of America expects a 25% downturn in the mortgage origination market, and has laid off 1,500 mortgage workers. Standard & Poor predicts the new risk-retention rule will further depress the housing market.
In The News:
Daily Bulletin – "Casting a shadow: Housing market's hidden inventory looms" (4-15-11)
"The shadow inventory is leading to the sentiment that any stability in today's market is a false one, said Bruce Norris, president of The Norris Group, a Riverside-based real estate investment firm. Some delinquent homes will avoid foreclosure through loan modifications or short sales, but many will also go up for sale."
Bloomberg – "Fed Policy Makers Differ Over Policy as Inflation Accelerates" (4-15-11)
"Fed Governor Elizabeth Duke said in Washington yesterday that rising commodity costs aren't resulting from U.S. monetary policy and don't warrant higher interest rates, while Fed Governor Daniel Tarullo said he sees no sign of inflation spreading more broadly. Richmond Fed President Jeffrey Lacker and Philadelphia's Charles Plosser indicated they're more concerned about prices, with Lacker saying the central bank must tighten credit before inflation gains speed."
Housing Wire – "New Democrat Coalition unveils housing finance reform priorities" (4-15-11)
"The New Democrat Coalition wants to wind down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and increase private-sector involvement in the residential mortgage market, according to a new document the group released Friday. The proposal includes preserving access to affordable loans, including the 30-year, fixed-rate loan, and strengthening taxpayer protections."
Housing Wire – "Bank of America lays off 1,500 mortgage workers" (4-15-11)
"Bank of America (BAC: 12.82 -2.36%) laid off 1,500 associates nationwide as the bank anticipates a 25% downturn in the mortgage origination market."
Housing Wire – "Risk retention will produce higher quality mortgages, depress housing: S&P" (4-15-11)
"The new risk-retention rule will produce higher quality originations, as intended, but will also constrict lending and further depress the housing market, according to Standard & Poor's."
Jacksonville – "Bank gives man foreclosed Jacksonville house for free" (4-15-11)
"Perry Laspina was in the middle of foreclosure with the possibility of losing the house he owned in Jacksonville. Then the mail came one day in late January telling him that the house was his. Despite the $72,000 mortgage that he barely paid anything on, despite the foreclosure … the house was his."
Realty Times – "Sell Your Home Now With These Tips" (4-15-11)
"That means that any and all pictures of your home should create web appeal — an instant attraction — drawing the buyer into your home for an in-person look. If your photos or videos are not properly composed with pleasant lighting and free of clutter and distractions, they won't appeal to buyers browsing the web."

text: LA CEOsDate: March 07, 2013Location:Santa MonicaLA CEOs presents: Growing Revenue Through Telesales Telephone sales are a powerful way to grow revenue. Well-equipped and well prepared inside sales people reach and convert prospects rapidly and economically. Telesales operations can be started quickly, perfected in pilot mode with minimal investment, and then scaled quickly either in-house or outsourced. Many firms have found this to be an optimal path to growth and prosperity. Like other powerful business tools, telesales can propel a firm upward. Achieving this potential is not easy however and failure is the norm. Sometimes failure results from overestimating the value proposition but other times failure merely reflects avoidable sales execution errors. How does one get started? What traits make a person right for telesales? What equipment is needed? What to do when early results are disappointing? Jeff Feuer, President & co-founder of Customer Solutions Group and it's InsideSalesLab will provide his insights and solutions. This event is restricted to CEOs only.

Warning: the video above shows a person on fire and has some explicit language.
Gilbert Estrada, 51, burned to death at a Halloween party in L.A., but police don't know how or why.
Estrada was attending the popular West Hollywood Halloween Carnaval last week when suddenly he was on fire, according to the Los Angeles Times. A YouTube video captured the incident and Estrada writhing around in the midst of a group of dancers.
Horrifically, some of the dancers appear to be cheering as Estrada burns, apparently unaware of what was really going on. Other people at the party put out the flames and Estrada was taken to a nearby hospital, where he died Friday morning.

Would love some one who can help with a bit of gardening, horse feeding and riding or house work, only a couple hours a day and can ride as much you like for the rest and have your own time. We always have plenty of horses in work, also go to competitions and polo / polo x games and lots of things to get involved in.
The house is big, 5 bedrooms, two bathrooms. So usually have your own bedroom and bathroom and my partner and I live in the house as well.
This is a great oportunity for some one who would like either some accomodation for some time in exchange for just a little help or the for accomodation and being able to ride all day, not asking for you to be helping all day and will give you free accomodation.

Best Of :: People & Places
For many years, the history of the Silent Movie Theatre on Fairfax was relatively non-tumultuous. Opened in 1942 by John Hampton who hoped to use his personal collection of silent comedies to bring some joy to those struggling through the World War II years it continued to operate well into the 90s as the only remaining full-time silent cinema in the world. In 1997, tragedy brought its long run to a halt when then-owner Lawrence Austin was shot and killed at the location during an apparent robbery attempt.(Even sadder, his business partner was later implicated in the murder.) In the ensuing years, the theater was closed, sold and reopened, then only periodically screened silents while frequently being rented out for private events. Since 2006, however, the fabulous organization Cinefamily dedicated to exhibiting exceptional, distinctive, weird and wonderful titles has repurposed the Silent Movie Theatre as one of L.A.s most unusual and appealing cinema treasures, with seating that includes premium-priced, plush seats; restored Art Deco fixtures and a nifty patio in the rear; and a superbly eclectic schedule of cult film favorites, filmmaker Q&As, television revival festivals and, yes, sometimes a good old-fashioned night of silent classics. 611 N. Fairfax Ave., Mid-City. (323) 655-2510, cinefamily.org. Nicole Campos
L.A. is a city with a skeleton of concrete. For graffiti artists, this corpse can be a canvas. In some urban corners, often left untouched (and unbuffed) by the powers that be, graffiti murals spring up like trees planted by invisible arborists. But these areas, like old-growth forests, are becoming rare. The mouth of the Belmont Tunnel where the citys first subway ran was once the premier guerrilla gallery for urban artists. Today, lofts stand in its place, but one classic, old-school graffiti spot remains: the bridge at the confluence of the Arroyo Seco and the Los Angeles River. Murals, scrawled in the imaginative typography of the street, span the gray walls, sometimes extending down into the green waters of the basin. And on the undersides of the bridges, markings of the original graffiti artists, early-20th-century hobos, are written in coal swiped from the engine rooms of freight trains. Past meets present, forever etched on the urban walls. Under the Arroyo Seco Parkway, in the L.A. River. Drew Tewksbury
Billionaires covet eponymous museums like starlets pursue bigger breasts, then stock them with established names like rappers flashing their bling. Yet time often transcends such vanities, and a good museum becomes a presenter of breakthrough or unsung work. So beckons the Hammer Museum. Start with architecture that interacts with the street, making its shows Wilshire Boulevardvisible. Add programming that thinks bigger say, discourses on global politics or surfboard design or a talk with artist-provocateur Paul McCarthy none of which gets it too far from its primary mission. As well as internationally acclaimed artists, the Hammer consistently reveals new L.A. talent and respects established ones. Mark Bradford showed here five years before he appeared in the Whitney Biennial. Elliot Hundleys first museum show was here. Meanwhile, retrospectives for the illustrious Richard Hawkins and Llyn Foulkes are in the works, as is an L.A. biennial. And all of it is an easy walk to three bus lines. Thats cosmopolitan. 10899 Wilshire Blvd., Wstwd. (310) 443-7000, hammer.ucla.edu. Tibby Rothman
Suiho En, or the Garden of Water and Fragrance, is a stunning, traditional Japanese garden at the center of the San Fernando Valleys vast watershed that reminds us of the beauty of water and nature, in poetic contrast to the adjacent reclamation plant that removes tons of sludge from our water system daily. Visitors are urged to walk, sit, emulate Lord Buddha ... in silent contemplation of the human condition (and to also view the wastewater filtering process up close). The cost of pursuing spiritual enlightenment at the garden is $3; call in advance for docent-led tours. 6100 Woodley Ave., Van Nuys. (818) 756-8166, thejapanesegarden.com. Suzy Beal
Abandoned places have their own energy or seem to, at least, if you watch any basic-cable pseudoscience-channel filler programs about hauntings or the paranormal. The abandoned Linda Vista Community Hospital in Boyle Heights is used these days as a shooting location for everything from episodes of ER to music videos to assorted horror movies dripping with that dull post-Saw decay for effect. You can wander through for a fee. Founded in 1904 as the Santa Fe Railroad Hospital, it served railway employees who got sick of working on the railroad all the livelong day. Closed in 1991, its been the focus of intrepid urban explorers who are either too principled or too cheap to pay the admission fee charged by the on-site guard. So why would ghosts choose to haunt places with very little life left in them? Psychoacoustic feedback loops, unexplained penance and just plain spectral loneliness have all been offered as guesses at ghostly motivation, but the faithful and the skeptical can agree that the building currently crumbling away slowly in East Los Angeles resembles a ghost because its just sad. 610 S. St. Louis St., Boyle Heights. (323) 526-4222. David Cotner
It doesnt take much more than decent eyesight to see a celebrity in L.A. But a ghost? That might take some doing. Fortunately, Richard Carradine and G.H.O.U.L.A. are here to help. Ghost Hunters of Urban Los Angeles hosts Spirits With Spirits gatherings, on the 13th of each month, in a haunted locale. Their slogan: Lets put the Boo! back into booze. G.H.O.U.L.A. gatherings bring together kindred spirits to swap ghost stories and hunt for specters in a congenial atmosphere. In August, on Friday the 13th, the group visited Santa Anita Race Tracks Derby Restaurant, said to be haunted by Seabiscuits jockey, George Woolf. In September they moved on to Echo Parks 1642, in a Deco building that opened in 1914 and has been a neighborhood bar since at least the 1940s; its ghost reportedly is a happy, tippling type of spirit, prone to bumping bartenders and patrons alike.

Heh, thanks
Thank you for helping me find a song that I actually like. I've considered sending this song to a special person of mine. He might like it.
Again, thanks
Rated 5 / 5 stars
This is awesome.
Are you ever going to release an album? I'd buy on the premiere day!
Lyrics whoo!:
It's getting harder to believe
I'm making anybody else
See the writings on the walls
But my notebook's on the shelf
And the pencil marks on paper
Slowly fade away with time
While the memories get blurry
Cause their lost inside your mind
I'm wishing for a dream or two
Before the end of every day
So all the broken pieces mend
And I can put them all away
The little bits and scraps and parts of
The life behind my back
That I keep forgetting more of
But it needs to be like that
Hold me close, I'm falling faster
Tell me this could last forever
Hold me close, I'm falling faster
(Falling faster...)
Hold me close, I'm falling faster
Tell me this could last forever
Hold me close, I'm falling faster...
And now I'm dreaming of the nights
That we both remember well
And I'm sure, I'm oh-so sure
That the way you made me feel
Could be the greatest love I've ever felt
From anybody else
But everybody thinks I'm cool
That I am here just for myself
Because, how could he really love her?
He's in it just for kicks
And that's why we've lasted so long
Even though we are like this
So take the moments that we share
And don't you dare ever forget
That I will always be right here
Without a single sole regret
Rated 5 / 5 stars

Manchester firm JMW has posted its year-end results for 2012/13, revealing a 13 per cent increase in revenue thanks to a significant boost in online instructions.
According to the firm's senior partner Joy Kingsley, 549 cases billing £710,000 came from the web last year, with £632,000 added to work in progress. This marks a 97 per cent increase from the 279 cases billing £281,521 in 2011/12 and an even further hike from the 100 cases billing £100,000 the year before.
The increase contributed to a revenue rise of 13 per cent last year, from £13.2m in 2011/12 to £15m in 2012-13. The firm did not disclose a profit figure, but said that it had grown 25 per cent over the same period.
"I think that online instructions could be a key strategy for firms across the country who have full-service offerings and are able to invest in this," Kingsley told The Lawyer. "Not everybody uses a website for the same thing, with many commercial firms using their website as more of a brochure, but online is very attractive to SME clients provided you have the right structure."
At JMW that structure includes a 12-person call centre. "You have all sorts of people competing in the market so if you don't call back the instruction could go to someone else," highlighted Kingsley.
In terms of practice area the firm's family group experienced the biggest boom with an increase in fee income by 125 per cent. Part of this boost could be credited to the hire of former Pannone duo Catherine Jones and Beth Wilkins to the department in 2011.
Kingsley resigned from Pannone, where she was managing partner and then senior partner, in the summer of 2010 (25 May 2010). She joined JMW in September 2010.
The firm is understood to be on the verge of a small takeover although no details were confirmed at the time of writing.

The Computing Services Department will be performing a transition to a new server for the Banner Web Services (School Services, Web for Employee, One Stop, TouchNet) next Thursday, March 14th from 8 AM until roughly 1 PM. During the upgrade, these services will be unavailable, however, on-campus Banner INB (forms) services will remain up and usable.
Also, on Tuesday evening (3/12) beginning at 9 PM and lasting until roughly 1 AM, we will be migrating the campus Windows Print Server and the Lab Stats system to new back-end storage. During this time, printing from campus computers, both employee and lab, will be down. Since nearly all students will be out for Spring Break, the impact of this maintenance should be very minimal.
***Computing Services Customer Survey is launched***
Computing Services recently implemented a Customer Service Survey that is tied to our work order system. When a ticket has been resolved, you will receive an email containing a link that will take you to the Computing Services Customer Service Survey.
The survey consists of 7 brief questions and an opportunity to provide us with additional comments or suggestions to assist us in providing the best possible service to you as our customers.

Courtney Stodden Turns 20: Relive the Teen Bride's Most Outrageous Moments
Courtney Stodden is no longer a teen bride. Well, a teen, at least.
The buxom blonde, who infamously married Lost actor Doug Hutchison and got a boob job all before having her first legal drink, is turning the big 2-0 this Friday. Presumably leaving her teenage ways behind, Stodden will no doubt now embark on a journey into mature womanhood with poise and grace.
Or she can continue doing things like posing half-naked on someone's grave or wearing a bikini made of lettuce. Her choice.
Regardless of what path the girl chooses, we can never truly forget her most outrageous moments. Relive her rambunctious teenage years in the gallery above!

Singapore has notified the World Trade Organization (WTO) that it will implement all the operational provisions of the WTO's Agreement on Trade Facilitation (ATF) immediately when the ATF comes into force, according to a statement from the Ministry of Trade and Industry.
The ATF is an agreement among WTO members that aims to reduce red tape in cross-border trade by simplifying customs and border procedures. The ATF was concluded at the WTO's 9th Ministerial Conference in Bali in December 2013 after more than nine years of negotiations. When the ATF is implemented, businesses can expect to see trade costs decrease by 10 to 15 percent, according to OECD estimates, and a boost to the world economy of more than USD1 trillion, according to the Peterson Institute for International Economics.
The economic benefits of trade facilitation are real and wide-ranging. Singapore's Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) said transparent and efficient customs procedures help support business supply chains, attract foreign investment, and boost domestic development. Implementing the ATF will also facilitate greater economic integration and growth – goals that are especially pertinent to the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN) and Asia Pacific region.
Besides Singapore, a number of other WTO members, including Colombia, Costa Rica, Hong Kong (China), Mexico, and South Korea, have also notified the WTO of their respective commitments to the ATF. For businesses and economies to meaningfully reap the benefits of the ATF, it is important that all WTO members notify their commitments and ratify the agreement as quickly as possible, the MTI said.

Y'know. Every once in a while a light bulb goes on over my head. Not has often as when I was younger, but still a get a "click" and I get it.
We, including me, thought Romney had a chance to win. Why? Because we thought people in America had some sense of responsibility, restraint, understanding and willingness to do the right thing in the face of the opposition just handing out free crap for votes.
Had I thought for a second, I would have remember moments like the video we see, where people are pushing and shoving and harming each other- not for food or water- but for a phone.
And they think it okay human behavior and even proper. Nothing embarrassing about it to them.
And we thought we had a chance to get those people to vote for someone with self-restraint.
Idiots… not them, us.
If these dummies only knew they could go to the Federal Communication Bureau and get a free ObamaFone none of this would have happened.
As it was in the day of Noah, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of Man.
I get what you are saying Archer.
These people vote. We are so scr**ed.
More people fought over phones than showed up for the Black Friday union walkout.
This is where we have arrived! Staying up in a line all night to rush in and fight over a cheap ass Chinese phone! God help us!
Spot on Archer, spot on.

It's funny because the left actually believes they can dictate equal outcomes:
-Affirmative Action
-Amnesty for Illegals
-Equal Pay for Women (the biggest lie…women are paid more than men)
What actually happens with all of these actions is a decrease in national productivity, thus lower economic growth, thus less wealth to spread. Eventually, the machine grinds to a halt and survival-of-the-fittest kicks in. Guess whom is most fit? The one's the libs were trying to hamper all along…they will naturally rise to the top again.
You can't keep bubbles from rising through sewage.
Not every Walmart was like this. The one in my hometown saw people being pretty polite, not a lot of shoving and no people taking things away from others. I was at the video game pallets and those in front were handing games back to people behind because we had a plan to make sure everyone got what they wanted and we didn't act like savages to do it.

With the re-election of Obama that just shows me that the only thing almost half of the USA is only concerned for themselves and what they can get or take from others. If this was supposed to be getting the name of a person,family or animal to help right now do you think we would see ANY FIGHTING TO GET IN THERE AND GET "THEIRS" FIRST????? LOL This is what most of the country will be looking like in 2013/2014 as the healthcare and taxes go into place. Looking like Greece huh?
#3 Archer fully agree with you and other who ditto'd you. . .
This speaks volumes as to the kind of country we have become. .

So that all we become are secular materialistic egotists seeking our own needs first.
The one thing I disagree with you and others on is that Romney had the message. . I actually think he was too watered down. . need to be fore forceful about Constitutional Principle and American values. . . and the alternative we as a country and as individuals for choosing wrongly. . .
Well now we will have four years to see . . .

This is nothing new. Apparently some have forgotten just how it was when a department store would have their white sales. Women would be pushed up against the doors waiting for the store to open. My grandmother told me it was like watching a herd of cattle in a stampede.
The only difference today is it is caught on tape.
Archer 52 Said:
"We, including me, thought Romney had a chance to win. Why? Because we thought people in America had some sense of responsibility, restraint, understanding and willingness to do the right thing in the face of the opposition just handing out free crap for votes."
Except that most of the people in this video voted for Romney. So there goes that theory…
Slaves to "stuff"…. I'm no angel in this regard and sometimes find myself too stuck on a "thing" over what's important, but I'd never stoop to such idiocy to buy something. ONCE I waited in line at a Toys R Us to get a Wii for Christmas. It was orderly. I got up, got in line, got my ticket, bought my Wii and left, went back to bed, and on Christmas morning we played a Wii together. And if I didn't get it? I'd have gotten in my car and left and bought something else for Christmas morning. No big whoop.
#26. I doubt it.
Remember 52% is just over the halfway mark. In any battle, if you want to take an objective in an assault you need to be three to one or better advantage in soldiers.
We have 48%, they have 52%. We'll not retake the ramparts. That is over. All we can do is hold on in a siege manner and prevent them from getting out into the countryside- so to speak- and wait until they starve themselves out.
Unfortunately, as some of you have noted, when that time comes, their answer to the failure will be to come and get your things. Never will it cross their minds that maybe working, saving and taking responsibility for their own lives would be an option.
That means three events. The failure of the system or the tightening of the budget- which will result in the same effect. The violent reaction to those changes. The government's and your reaction to the violence.
It is going to get "sporty" sooner or later in certain areas of our nation.
Must be one helluva phone. Won't be long and these scenes will be replayed re. food, basic clothing, etc…. My hometown Wal-Mart was quiet at 9:30 this a.m. NO lines anywhere in store.
Imagine food shortages.

Cole accused of ego problem
Cole battles with Stan Lazaridis during United's 1-0 win
Manchester United's Andy Cole has been accused of having "a bit of an ego" by the Australian whose knee ligaments he badly tore during a friendly match on Sunday.
The 20-year-old complained that while compatriot Mark Bosnich and Teddy Sheringham had offered their sympathy, Cole had said nothing.
"If it had been me I would have gone to see him and apologized."
Cole does not see why he should apologise for the tackle, which left Colosimo's knee in need of major rebuilding work.
"I have not spoken to Colosimo and why should I because I went for the ball?" he asked in the Manchester Evening News.
"I don't feel I have done any wrong and I haven't a malicious bone in my body.
"I'm disappointed for him that this should happen."
"When our players replayed the moment on the big screen afterwards let's just say they wanted to knock Cole's block off."
And the young left-back complained that referee Simon Micallef allowed too many rough challenges in what was basically an unimportant match.
"Players on both sides were getting out of hand, there were a lot of senseless tackles going in and nobody was getting booked," he remembered.
Colosimo has been linked to Germany's Bayern Munich and Greek club Panathanaikos.
His Australian club Carlton have discussed who to sue for the loss of possible transfer riches.
The club is believed to have four options:
Rivkin and SA will be consulted first, but the Melbourne-based club are determined that someone should pay for the loss of the Ł500,000-rated player.
"The lad is going through a rough time at the minute," Carlton manager Lou Sticca told the BBC's Manchester radio station GMR.
"There were quite a few interested clubs and I would say that in the next couple of weeks Simon Colosimo would have signed for a European club.
"He will miss the opportunity to make a very lucrative career for himself, while we as a club have lost our major asset.
"At this stage we are not blaming anyone in particular, but we are the ones who have been aggrieved and the most aggrieved person in all of this is Simon Colosimo."

Jodie Marsh
Skanky celebrities are so creative when it comes to creating their outfits. In this video of Jodie Marsh at an FHM event, she has apparently put together a nice little top and bottom using just three belts. If you had told me yesterday that an outfit could be created from just three belts, I would have called you a witch and had you burned at the stake. But now I see just how right you would have been. Who knew that a belt normally used to hold up a skirt could be used as the skirt itself? Genius, I tell you.

damn, you woke up on the wrong side of the bed.

 yes, i am expecting to have to write an autopilot program from scratch.

 by neutrally buoyant, i mean slightly heavier than air.

 it's an airplane, so it has to move forward to fight gravity, and when it
 is told to stay in one place it should end up flying directly into the
 wind. If the wind is faster than what is needed for zero climb/fall it
 can aim its prop down to reduce lift, and if the wind is too slow it can
 automatically circle the spot.

 yes it will have a battery, and use electricity. It will also carry an
 android phone. I don't think this is too much weight for a balloon.

 other people have talked about a tethered balloon. I am not stopping
 them, however I want something a lot better. I understand that I will
 need to write software.

 I am not trying to please the cops.

 If anyone wants to help design the envelope shape, please contact me off
 list. I'm looking to copy this design:

Do you really get the support you need right now?
Many people describe the relocation as a very lonely and isolating experience, with no real support. You are not alone!
While working with many groups and individuals I realized that there is something common to all of us, no matter what life transition we are experiencing right now; we all have to be PRESENT in our life to create a fulfilled future.
- Are you ready to stop living in your past, or future perfect?
- Are you ready to start being fully present with your life?
- Are you ready to stop living by your circumstances and start taking action toward your future vision?
As a mother who went through relocation and found the strengths to recreate her life, I can assure you I will help you Move Forward. Contact me and let's design together the system that will support your steps to be present and recreate the life you want to live at a choice.

Previous to m0n0wall, I was using a FreeBSD server with IPNat/IPFilter
for my firewall. I installed the Linux UPnP internet gateway
http://sourceforge.net/projects/linux-igd using the version in the
FreeBSD ports. It worked great but personally I no longer use UPnP
because it essentially allows apps to poke holes in your firewall on
demand; you should be able to accomplish what you need with the proper
stateful packet filter rules. I know that many commercial home routers
implement UPnP so if you really need it, it is a breeze to install it
because it is available in the FreeBSD ports. You just need to
understand the security risks...

Mohawk to invest $85 million in Rome, Dalton plants
Mohawk Industries will reinvest $31 million at a former yarn spinning plant at 420 Lavender Drive, retaining more than 230 jobs and possibly paving the way for future growth of its workforce in Rome.
The Rome-Floyd Development Authority approved a bond resolution for the deal during a meeting Wednesday.
Mohawk will also convert another yarn spinning facility in Dalton, creating 420 jobs in Whitfield County. The investment in Whitfield County is expected to total $54 million.
Mohawk Deputy General Counsel Joe Foye said the upgrading of Lavender Drive plant will include conversion to BCF twisting and heat-setting technology.
"BCF is a type of yarn, what we use to make manufactured carpet with," Foye said. "It's made from recycled bottles. We are the largest user of recycled bottles in the world."
The bottles are recycled at a Mohawk facility in Summerville. The yarn is then spun in a number of locations, including Rome.
"The market likes the idea of having recycled (material). It's great for the economy, its great for the environment and we can use this in a very economical fashion," Foye said.
Georgia has been very supportive of Mohawk and offered a variety of job credits to help invest in its workforce, he added.
"There will be some retraining that will go on," he said. "Some of the same employees who are today doing our spinning plant operations will now be doing this BCF heat-setting process, so there are some different skill sets that are applied there."
Mohawk will use the Georgia Quick Start program to train its current and new employees, and the hiring process is planned to begin mid-2014.
The company also will get a tax abatement in Floyd County, where it plans to spend the $31 million over the next three years.
Development Authority Attorney Andy Davis said Mohawk would get a payment in lieu of taxes deal spread over approximately seven years.
The three-phase PILOT agreement treats each year's investment as a separate action worth a 5-year tax abatement. In each case, the company will get a 100-percent abatement the first year, 75 percent in the second year, 50 percent in Years 3 and 4, and 25 percent for the fifth year.
The Rome and Dalton investments, coupled with the recent expansion in Summerville, retains or creates 1,000 jobs in Northwest Georgia, according to Joe Yarbrough, Mohawks' senior vice president of advanced manufacturing engineering.
"We are grateful to our local, regional and state partners for their support of these expansions and for sharing our commitment to build a brighter future for Northwest Georgia," Yarbrough said in a statement issued by Gov. Nathan Deal's office.

Many thanks for the reply - i was a little concerned that we might be left stranded if we didn't buy in advance and the boat was full !
Will certainly let you know how we get on - i am taking my laptop on holiday so will post upon my return when i return to the bar for a well earned beer
My daughter and I had a great walk down to the beach (and back up again !!) from Masca - we actually drove to Masca via Santiago Del Tiede. We decided against the boat trip as earlier in the holiday we went on a Dolphin trip and she got a little sick so was not keen on going on the waves again..
The walk was lovely and not quite as hard as i imagined it was going to be - although the legs were beginning to go by the end !
We also walked up the hill with the crosses in Santiago Del Tiede - such a lovely spot up by the large cross at the top. There was a cave like hole that was fenced and locked but you could just about peer into it - can anyone advise is this cave has any significance please ?
Many thanks
I'm glad you both enjoyed the trip. Well done for doing Masca Gorge in the uphill direction! I've yet to do it uphill myself, but will do it that way next time I'm in Tenerife.
Regarding the "cave like hole" on the hill with crosses, do you mean the green door in the little chapel at the top of the crosses as shown in the following photo?
My guess is that the chapel was built because of the "miracle" of the water that seeps out from between two layers of rock in this otherwise-dry landscape, and that behind the green door there is some plumbing that collects some of the water and pipes it down to the village to be used. But that's just my assumption. It must be an important place to the locals, because someone climbs up the hill to light the candles, presumably every day.

Spring has arrived and plants are beginning to break dormancy, but the home lawn may not be lush and green yet. Many homeowners have a centipede lawn. Centipede grass does not become green as quickly as some other warm-season turfgrasses. Temperature and day length are the two factors that influence when centipede grass comes out of dormancy and the rate at which the grass returns to its green color. There are other factors that can affect the health of the centipede lawn such as maintenance, insects, disease, and fertilization.

When my baseball-playing youngest son was 11 years-old his father was out of town when it came time to outfit the kids for spring sports. The job of purchasing pants, sliding shorts, glove, cleats and bat fell on my shoulders. My feminine ignorance showed like a zit between my eyes. His father never would have insisted on buying black baseball pants.

I used to take them pieces when they were wee bairns—ye mind, tammie?
Mither, exclaimed Johnny to his parent, thats tammie at the door.
Twice, just after the grouse hunters left and again four days later, Ted sent tammie to Al.
Thus encouraged, Johnny opened the door, and in trotted tammie hearty and hale.
Wherever tammie had dropped it, the pack wouldn't be hard to see.
For guid sake, tammie, haud your tongue; dinna deave the ladies.
Ted prepared a hearty breakfast of bacon and eggs and fed tammie.
Ted ruffled his head with a gentle hand as tammie fell in beside him.
Then tammie whined for admittance and Ted got up to let him in.

CLSA has maintained its "underperform" on
The broker says CBA's $1.85 billion quarterly profit was a good result but the trading update was scant on details.
"Despite 1Q13 trading update likely triggering upward consensus upgrades, CBA's prospective P/E [price-earnings] is stretched relative to history on both a consensus expectations and perfect foresight basis, which is hard to justify. Notwithstanding increasing our target peer relative CBA premium from 6 per cent to 10 per cent we reiterate our 'underperform' rating."
CLSA says there are five main factors to consider: 1) CBA has above peer leverage with about $2 billion of double-geared debt capital; 2) superior strategic positioning in the current environment, which favours deposit/fund management gathering and technology-based cost-cutting; 3) tighter than peer share register due to a retail skew; 4) superior IT leverage driving efficiency growth; and 5) the value-accretive Bankwest acquisition to generate excess earnings growth for CBA.
CLSA is forecasting earnings per share of $4.67 in 2013 and $4.95 in 2014. CBA delivered EPS of $4.50 in 2012.

Drillers Back at ONEOK Field Thursday for 7-Game Homestand
Tulsa to host Arkansas and Springfield
By Tulsa Drillers | July 23, 2013 1:21 PM ET
The Tulsa Drillers will conclude the month of July with a 7-game homestand at ONEOK Field that will begin on Thursday, July 25. The stand will open with a four-game series against the Arkansas Travelers (Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim) July 25-28, and will finish with a three-game set versus the Springfield Cardinals (St. Louis Cardinals) that will run July 29-31.
All seven games in the stand will begin at 7:05PM in downtown Tulsa.
The promotions schedule will include Margaritaville Night/Thirsty Thursday on July 25, Friday Night Fireworks on July 26, Grand Slam Saturday/OKC Thunder Night on July 27 and $2 Tuesday on July 30. The stand will conclude with Bark in the Park Night on Wednesday, July 31.
The Drillers will look to reverse a July trend. They are only 2-8 in home games during the month. Overall, Tulsa is .500 at ONEOK Field this season, winning 25 and losing 25.
Arkansas has won five of the eight meetings between the two teams in Tulsa this year, while the Drillers have split the eight home games with Springfield.
Individual tickets to all seven games are now available online at TulsaDrillers.com, in person at the ONEOK Field Ticket Office (201 N. Elgin Avenue) or over the phone by calling (918) 744-5901.
ALL THE SAME: Through the season's first 99 games, the Drillers team batting average was identical for both home and road games. They were hitting .236 in 50 home games and .236 in 49 road games.
TOUGH DECISIONS: Starting pitcher Christian Bergman has recorded a 2.52 ERA in 10 starts at ONEOK Field this season and has held opponents to a .241 batting average. A lack of run support has left Bergman with deceiving 1-3 record at home.
NINA AT HOME AT HOME: Second baseman Angelys Nina hits 100 points higher at ONEOK Field than on the road. He has a .337 average at ONEOK Field and a .231 mark on the road. In addition, six of his seven home runs have come in games played in Tulsa.
DEFENSE, DEFENSE: Three Drillers infielders lead their respective positions in fielding according to Texas League statistics. Nina leads all second basemen with a .980 fielding percentage. Jayson Langfels leads the third basemen with a .969 mark and Cristhian Adames leads all shortstops with a .970 percentage. Also, the Drillers lead all TL teams with a .981 fielding percentage.

Najib and Rosmah, self praise is no praise
YOURSAY 'Just admit it - Rosmah has no business and she is not entitled to use the government executive jet, period.'
Najib defends Rosmah, lists her unsung deeds
LKT: PM Najib Razak is trying to defend the indefensible act of his wife, Rosmah Mansor, being allowed to use a taxpayer-funded state asset for her personal trip .
He must be thinking that we are a bunch of simpletons and will swallow wholesale what he says. If Najib wishes to reward his wife for meddling in the affairs between states, he will need to pay for it himself.
Personally, I will say that she should not have been directly involved in appealing on behalf of Malaysia to Egypt and Saudi Arabia because she has no official executive position in government. Thanks but no thanks, I would say.
To those Umno dimwit apple polishers, it is completely irrelevant if Najib 'sayang' (love) Rosmah or otherwise.
We all realise it is very convenient and classy to be flying around in private jet but the truth of the matter is she just don't qualify to fly solo in an aircraft funded by taxpayers (which by the way are mostly non-Umno members).
Ferdtan: Najib should be singing the MCA's karaoke campaign video, ' Love is in the air '. The song was so 'popular' that it went all the way to Australia appearing in their TV show with their hosts laughing throughout the programme.
Yes, we know you love your wife so much that you broke ethical rules (possibly criminal if it were to be probed further without fear or favour) to allow her to fly in the government jet to attend her private function.
Could it be that Rosmah whispered that there would be no love if she were not in the air in the luxurious private plane?
RM40Million: On behalf of those whom Rosmah has helped, I wish to thank Rosmah and congratulate her for the contribution. Thank you, Rosmah. Ministers who are suppose to do the job, please resign.
James1067: What were all the previous wives of the PM's doing? Were they not contributing time and effort in their own ways in serving the country? Yet they did their part in a quiet and humble manner never taking advantage of their positions.
Today, they are highly respected by the public. There has not been a single accusation pointed in their direction.
Onyourtoes: Strange enough, when I first read the caption of this news report, my immediate reaction was: don't tell me he is going to talk about Permata. See, I can almost read your mind already.
Yes, that Permata (schools for early education) which costs us millions has now placed Malaysia 52 out of 65 countries in the latest Pisa (Programme for International Student Assessment) ranking, way behind even Vietnam.
With regard to her other roles as mentioned, I think you should shut down the whole Wisma Putra and sack the foreign minister.
I think it is even wrong for her to interfere when one of our citizens was arrested for spying in a foreign country. Don't you think due process must be allowed to run its course?
Look PM, the more you defend your wife, the more ridiculous the whole situation is going to be. Just admit it - she has no business and she is not entitled to use the government executive jet, period.
Vgeorgemy: Prior to Najib's administration, we had so many such instances where our fellow citizens faced hardship overseas due to the internal political issues. We solved all of these through and by excellent Foreign Ministry and Wisma Putra officials.
Najib now admits that under his regime all of these finest institutions are destroyed to the extend his wife needs to rescue the public services. What a shame, and Najib has none of it to admit that.
Cala: Soong Mei Ling, wife of General Chiang Kai-shek of the Kuomintang government, was also not an elected officer. She went to America, spoke to both Congress and Senate, and in the end, secured funds to finance against Japanese invasion and later against the communists.
Since she was accountable to no one, her family siphoned at least half of American aid for themselves. Of course as expected, Kuomintang lost China to the communists despite having a huge army size of 10 to 1.
If Rosmah is not put under control, we may see another Soong in the making.
Ombak Biru: Najib, please keep your wife at home. If you want her to do volunteer work, we say thank you, but not at the taxpayers' expense.
If according to you, she is so good at backdoor diplomacy, please sack the foreign minister and appoint her instead. Stop wasting our tax money having two persons doing the same job.
Perhaps close the Foreign Ministry - just Rosmah and a battery of phones would do.
Odin: In order to appreciate Najib's rationale in support of his wife using of the private jet for her recent private visit - the one known to us, that is - we need to remember that those Umno people are of a different wavelength from ours.
Witness, for instance, they regarding of Muslim Malaysian fanatical terrorists as more or less heroes in their using of government aircraft to fetch the remains of those criminals not too long ago. Essentially, what are improper to us is normal to them.
Louis: Najib, self-praise is no praise. Everyone has in one way or another done good deeds for the country. Some might have done even more noble tasks for the nation than Rosmah, and yet did not announce them to the whole world.
There are doctors or teachers who volunteer their services in god-forsaken places and no one knows about them.
If by your logic, they should be entitled to travel on private jets for holidays. Anyway, the roles played by your wife, as mentioned by you, are no big deal.
Given her position, any woman can do them. Despite these roles, there is no reason at all for her to use the taxpayers' money for her private jet visit to Qatar.
Clearwater: You know what happens once the fat lady starts to sing. Better for you, Najib, to let her (mis)deeds remain unsung.
