A 20-year-old woman has been charged after she was allegedly caught driving more than 50 kilometres per hour over the speed limit in Sydney's south-west last night.
Police say they detected the P-plater driving at 111kph in a 60 zone on Canterbury Road in Roselands shortly before 7:30pm (AEST).
The woman from Turrella had her licence suspended on the spot and was given a ticket for exceeding the speed limit by more than 45kph.

How Much Does a Submarine Cost?
A submarine used to be a military tool, but recently, it has turned into a luxury by the ultra rich.
"submarine" (CC BY 2.0) by RodneyRamsey
How much does it cost?
- On average, a submarine could be as little as $30,000 for a simple pedal-powered submarine to as much as $30 million for a nuclear-powered sub.
- According to a Gizmag.com article, an underwater vehicle (UV) from Marine Innovation Technologies (MIT), which features a pedal-powered submarine for two, costs $30,000 to $70,000. In contrast, existing small submarines can range anywhere from $100,000 to $200,000.
- The Seattle 1000 model from U.S. Submarines costs $19.7 million. A 10% initial payment is required, followed by four 20% payments. The final 10% is to be paid on delivery. The construction time for a luxury submarine is set at 24 months.
- A Spiegel Online articles state that private submarines can cost $1.7 million to $80 million, depending on the model. The Deepflight Super Falcon from Hawkes Ocean Technologies costs $1.7 million while the Ocean Pearl from SEAmagine is obtainable at $2.5 million. Triton Submarine's Triton 3300/3 costs about $3 million. The Phoenix 1000 from U.S. Submarines costs $80 million.
- According to USSCOD.org, nuclear-powered submarines cost more than $30,000,000.
What is going to be included?
- Submarines are built to submerge into the water and back up again as needed through their ability to control their buoyancy. For years, submarines were used for military purposes. After several years, the marine science industry used them to explore the ocean. Subsequently, they were used as recreational vehicles.
- Submarines come in different forms and have different features. There are recreational submersibles that are highly maneuverable, have the ability to barrel-roll or leap out of the water. Others can go deep into the ocean, but will need to keep moving to remain submerged. There are also two-person models that can dive up to 1,000 feet. The pricier ones come with a living and dining area.
- Many personal submarines are designed to be launched from a yacht while some are small enough to be carried and launched from a boat trailer.
- Mini-submarines can be from do-it-yourself kit subs that cost around $20,000 to luxury subs that can accommodate up to 20 people and cost about $80 million. Some submarines require 2 months of construction work while the bigger ones can take up to 2 years and longer.
What are the extra costs?
- Training is often needed to operate the most complex type of personal submarine. Undergoing special training may entail paying fees, which depend on the school enrolled in.
Factors that influence the price:
- Type. Submarines come in different forms and sizes. Basic, entry-level personal recreational submarines can cost around $20,000. Dolphin-inspired personal submarines called the Seabreachers, with a cruising speed of 40 mph and underwater speed of 20 mph, start at around $50,000 and have an extensive list of options. Meanwhile, the Virginia-class nuclear submarine-type, according to the U.S. Defense Department, is estimated to be around $2 billion to $2.5 billion while the Seawolf-class nuclear submarine costs $1.85 million each. High-end luxury submarines, such as the U.S. Submarines' Phoenix 1000, costs $80 million.
- Size. Submarines today can come in the form of personal submersibles, mid-range personal submarines, luxury subs, marine science tool or nuclear ships. Personal recreational submarines can cost $20,000 to $250,000. Mid-range personal subs cost between $1.7 million and $2 million. Luxury personal subs are obtainable for about $30,000 to the most expensive 213-foot, 5,300 square foot Phoenix 1000, which costs about $80 million.
- Functionality. The more functional a submarine is, the higher the cost. Less expensive subs tend to stay within 25 feet from the surface while the extremely expensive types are more comfortable, are more high-tech, and have a greater range that allows the unit to go as far as 3,000 feet down.
Tips to know:
- Not many in the scientific research community find deep submersibles as practical vessels because of the high operating costs and the need for a large support ship for operation purposes.
- Personal submarines from some manufacturers can be customized. Buyers have the option to choose a color or design from a range of available designs. The interiors of the submarine can also be personalized without compromising safety.
- With some submarine makers, the crew operating the vessel is required to have licenses before they can operate the vessel. Before an operator is given a license, the operators are required to undergo a training program that includes both theory and practical illustrations of the submersible.
- The submarine maker must be accessible at all times and are able to provide 24/7 support. If necessary, they must also be able to travel on short notice. Additionally, they must have on stock a broad array of spare parts that can be readily shipped when needed.
How can I save money?
- Submarines are normally expensive, whether they are bought as personal underwater vehicles or as nuclear warships. Even the personal submarine has become a status symbol for the extremely rich and an ultra-expensive toy for individuals with expensive toys. The least expensive personal submarine costs less than $20,000, but will have limited features and capabilities. For people who are interested in experiencing a submarine ride, they may want to consider another option. The Seattle 100 luxury submarine takes in passengers for a 24-hour trip for $2,500 per person.
- Pre-owned submarines may be an option to purchasing brand new submarines. However, it must be noted that there is a need to recognize the practicality and productivity of such a purchase, especially as many pre-owned submarines have obsolete equipment and older technology.

GOOD winter rains and the recent warm weather have sparked a swarm of home invasions. By bees.
Swarming in spring - where hives become congested with honey and eggs, and colonies split and go in search of new places to call home - is a natural phenomenon.
But this year bee experts say the buzz is much bigger, and home owners across the suburbs have been calling for help.
A Mornington beekeeper, John Winkle, is removing 20 to 30 hives a day from homes on the peninsula and bayside suburbs. ''You'd say it's up 30 per cent on last year,'' he said.
He said the easing of water restrictions and the year-long rain had meant gardens and street trees were flowering more heavily. This had led to a spike in honey production, and colonies splitting off into swarms in search of new homes.
It means that Mr Winkle has to divert energy from his honey business to send workers out to retrieve swarms.
Earlier this month, Mr Winkle was called to the home of Tania Evans, in St Kilda, where her three children were holed up in the back bathroom. Ms Evans was dressed in overalls with a scarf wrapped around her head, and the fireplaces were all smoking furiously on a hot day to try to drive the bees out.
''The windows were black with bees,'' she said. ''It was like a scene from Hitchcock's The Birds. But worse.''
Susan and Erwin Zuber, of the Beekeepers Club Inc, of Kinglake, were called out this week to remove a swarm from a mailbox.
Mr Zuber said the club had a swarm controller that assigned removal jobs to various members.
''There just seems to be a lot more swarming going on,'' he said.
Mrs Zuber said one man pulled his barbecue from the shed and found a swarm under the lid.
''Swarms are easy enough to remove,'' she said. ''If they're hanging off an eave, you can knock them off, and they will fall.
''Once the queen goes into a box, the workers follow.''
But once a swarm settles in and starts making wax cells and bringing in nectar, it has become a feral colony.
''And then they have something to defend, and it gets trickier,'' she said.

text: Microsoft blew it when it came to introducing Windows 8 last year. Aside from over pricing the new devices they introduced two different versions of the OS and confused the buying public. Windows RT was Microsoft's new operating system made to run on ARM Holdings ( ARMH)-based processors. Many buyers thought they were getting the same exact software with the same features as Windows 8 but at a lower price. That is not the case. Windows RT won't run anything other than special applets which can be downloaded from Microsoft's Windows RT online store - similar to the way users get apps for their Android and iOS devices. RT tablets do come with a free version of Microsoft Office but many of the legendary applications can't be installed on an RT tablet. Once the word got out Windows RT computers sat waiting on retailers' shelves. Because of that Asus has just joined Samsung, Lenovo and HTC in ending Win RT tablet production. Hewlet Packard ( HPQ) refused to make RT devices in the first place. That leaves Dell ( DELL) and Microsoft as the only two WinRT manufacturers left. Microsoft has started to make the right moves even though it was probably for the wrong reason. Microsoft decided to lower the price of its Surface tablet computers - both Windows 8 and Windows RT models to get rid of the old stock and make room for new devices coming later this year. The Surface RT is now priced at $349. In the past two weeks I've had the chance to use one of Microsoft's Surface RT tablet/notebook devices. I played with it for a few minutes before upgrading the software to the Windows 8.1 Preview. The tablet changed from questionable to enjoyable. The hardware is terrific and the software now comes a lot closer to matching that quality level. Looked at as a tablet - not as a PC - the $349 Surface RT with Windows 8.1 is quite competitive. Especially now that Microsoft throws in the less-expensive, flat-key keyboard/cover (usable although the optional "Type Cover" with real moving keys is better).

This celebration of the grand culinary tradition at the Ritz Paris features inspirational stories of three great men and is completed with sixty recipes.
At the age of thirteen, the young sommelier Cesar Ritz was summarily dismissed by his employer who told him he lacked the flair and talent to succeed in the hospitality business. Of course, Ritz went on to become one of history's greatest hoteliers, creating the Ritz in Paris and its world-renowned restaurant L'Espadon with the help of renowned chef Auguste Escoffier. Both Escoffier and Ritz loved simplicity, but perfection reigned in their finest of dining rooms.
Today, having climbed the ranks at L'Espadon, Michel Roth is now at the helm of this Michelin two-starred restaurant. His menus pay tribute to the heritage of Escoffier, using his classical standard as the backdrop for outstanding contemporary cuisine. The spectacular, award-winning egg-shaped macaroni and truffles dish inspired by Escoffier appears among the sixty featured recipes.
Superb photographs accompany each recipe, inviting the reader behind the scenes of this legendary culinary monument.

It's Time To Cry: Abused Pitbull "Mama Jade" Gets A Second Chance At Life
No one knows how the battered, bleeding pitbull escaped her chains and ended up in the yard of a North Nashville home, but one thing's for sure: she chose the right house. The person who lived there just happened to be an animal hospital employee, and was able to give the dog, who is now known as Mama Jade, the immediate care she desperately needed. She was also able to interpret the heartbreakingly obvious signs that Mama had been used as a bait and breeding dog in a vicious dog fighting operation. After learning the extent of her injuries, Mama Jade's rescuer posted an open letter on Craigslist addressed to the monster in her community who had hurt this sweet dog so badly. Here's an excerpt (warning: it's very graphic):
Last Friday night, your dog wandered up onto our porch. Signs of the abuse she had somehow escaped, riddled her body. The fresh bite marks on her muzzle, the scars that covered her body, the exposed pink and purple flesh around her neck, where she was obviously tied up with ropes that cut their way into her skin, over and over again. The obvious signs that she had been bred, relentlessly, time after time. The pressure wounds on her elbows that bled whenever they touched anything, from being tied and forced to lay on cement ground and metal cage mesh.
None of those things are even the worst part. Upon examining her teeth to gauge her approximate age, I burst into tears. I found that you had pulled the majority of them out and the ones you left, had been filed down. And you did this without anesthesia, this I am sure of. You did this so she couldn't fight back. You did this so she couldn't injure any dogs you had trained to fight, when you threw her in there with them. With each bite of her they took and each yelp she cried, they'd look at you for reassurance. Because all they wanted to do was please you. Loyalty is in their blood. Violence is not.
The story gets worse before it gets better (but it does get better!) …
The staff at the animal hospital instantly fell in love with Mama, who eagerly soaked up all their love and affection, so everyone was devastated when Mama's exams revealed that in addition to her gruesome injuries, she had cancer. Mama's rescuer would have to have her put down. "Tomorrow, Mama will finally feel peace," she wrote in the Craigslist letter. "And when she closes her eyes and takes her last breath, I'll be there. I'll hold her big ol' head and I'll tell her how much I love her."
But then a couple of crazy things happened. First, Mama's rescuer decided to put off the euthanization for one day. And secondly, the Craiglist posting went viral, resulting in thousands of people around the world emailing her to offer donations to get Mama treatment for her cancer. A Mama Jade Facebook page has been set up, and an official Mama Jade Cancer Treatment Fund should be ready within the next couple days. While Mama's prognosis isn't certain, her outlook is infinitely brighter than it was just a week ago, and her days are now filled with love and affection instead of fear and pain. Thanks to the outpouring of support, "this girl is getting yet another chance to live a beautiful life," as Mama's rescuer put it, and that's what we call a happy ending.

A few years back, Specter underwent extreme rounds of chemotherapy that left him gaunt and hairless.
A: The relative danger of drunk walking never fails to surprise; nor, sadly, does the relative inefficacy of chemotherapy.
We are still relying on surgery, chemotherapy and other anticancer drugs, and radiation, just as we did 40 years ago.
With chemotherapy, her doctors give her at least an 80 percent chance of survival.
This week, Mosca told The Daily Beast that he was just completing his last dose of chemotherapy for lung cancer.
I spoke to Goody last fall, two weeks into the chemotherapy that would ultimately prove to be ineffective.
But you say, you know people who have had chemotherapy and are alive 10 or more years later.
He was recovering from a particularly difficult round of chemotherapy.
He would compare the strategy to chemotherapy; life saving if administered properly and in the right dose, deadly if not.

A Love Affair That Lasted Almost 65 Years
7/17/2014 by BY MIMI BROWN
Frank DeVillier
This is a love story. A story of a man who is an inventor, business owner, father, grandfather, and a man who was deeply in love with his wife for almost 65 years.
Frank and Pat DeVillier both attended Teague High School where Pat graduated in 1948. ?She lived down the road from me but the dirt road would get muddy and big trucks would leave ruts in the road too big for me to cross on my motorcycle. The train tracks also ran the distance to her house so I devised a way to adapt my motorcycle to run on the railroad track. I sure had to know when the trains were going to run and pay attention so a stray one didn?t get me,? said Mr. DeVillier. ?I had to get to see her somehow.?
Robert Frank DeVillier and Patsy Ann Freeman were married in 1950 when the Church of Christ was on 6th and Cedar. ?Pat was Baptist and my family attended the Church of Christ. I had to do a little converting to get her to be married in my church,? he said laughing. Their first two years were blissful and then the United States sent troops into Korea and Uncle Sam came to their door. Frank was inducted into the United States Army in 1952 and he had to leave Pat. He first went to Fort Bragg in North Carolina and then to Germany. His job was in Artillery and operating and maintaining the 280 mm Atomic Cannon. ?They trained me on every inch of that thing,? said DeVillier. The gun took bullets that were four feet high and when shot, made a big mushroom cloud.
He was honorably discharged from the military in 1954 and went home to Pat.
The couple had two children: Cindy and Randy, who were the light of their lives.
They lived in Houston where she worked for Southwestern Bell Telephone Company and Frank worked for Anco Insulators-Basic Industries. With kids to raise and lots of friends Frank and Pat had fun with kids activities and neighborhood get togethers.
Frank worked insulating pipelines in the plant, out of Local 22 Union, where he has now received his 60-year pin. ?I worked with asbestos nearly all the time when I was insulating pipes,? said Frank. ?I?m just fine......no problems.?
He said, ?When insulating a pipe, it must be wrapped in the insulation material, then a metal sleeve is put over the insulation and a metal band is then put around the pipe to hold everything together.? Frank retired as Superintendent of the company in 1982.
It was the little metal bands that interested Frank. His entire life he adapted things and invented things to make them work better or more the way he wanted them to work, and he is really good at it. Whether it was metal work or woodwork he is a master. ?You see, in the field, where every pipe that comes out of the ground must be insulated, the men have to take the time to cut and apply the clip on every metal band they use. I just thought if the bands were cut into the sizes before they went into the field, it would be so much easier. In his shop at their home in Houston, Frank invented, built from scratch, and patented two machines that would do, not only the cutting, but also put the clip on. He started making bands and selling them to the big companies. The business took off and they ran out of room. They own family land in the Simsboro area and decided to come back home and build a place to live and make their bands. He named the company ?Clip-A-Band.?
With Pat by his side stacking and boxing the bands they opened their company in their new facility. They worked making bands for 32 years, stopping in 2008. ?Pat was the best worker I ever had,? said Frank.
Robert Frank DeVillier was born in Teague, in the hospital that used to be on 4th Avenue, to Bill and Anna Rose DeVillier. Frank and Pat?s children are Cindy DeVillier Bolen and husband Tim of Cypress and Randy and wife Eleanor of Simsboro. Cindy has two sons, Robbie Whorton, Ryan Whorton and wife Laura of Cypress. Randy has three sons: Evan DeVillier and wife Crystal of Streetman, Ethan DeVillier and wife Ashley of Fairfield, and Emory DeVillier and wife Melissa of Huntsville, and seven great grandchildren.
Frank and Pat lived their lives with love for their family and each other. They lived their Christian life and were good friends to all who know them. Frank lost Pat on April 25, 2014 and misses her terribly. He knows how fortunate they were to have so many wonderful years together and always smiles when he speaks of her. Frank said, ?I tell her picture good night and good morning everyday and that I still love her.?

Erick at RedState.org offered a little "Macaca" rebuttal to The Washington Post. What about George Allen's Democratic opponent Jim Webb writing dust-cover blurbs sticking up for the white man in a book that came out...just in January?
When George Allen mocked the little tool with the bad haircut a few weeks ago, the Webb campaign whipped itself into high dudgeons about the racism of George Allen. Perhaps the Webb campaign should not have been so vocal. Mr. Webb, you see, has his own history of quotes, like this one:
Politicians and judges over the past forty years have created the mythology that white America is a monolith whose history is based on social and economic privilege, while anyone who is not white is by definition disadvantaged. No one knows this better than William Perry Pendley and a few have done more to put an end to this outrage.
That's James Webb's quote on the back of William Perry Pendley's book Warriors of the West: Fighting Bureaucrats, Radical Groups, and Liberal Judges on America's Frontier.
It sounds like Webb really is one of those "progressive candidates" the left should be excited about supporting.
Will the Washington Post ever notice? Pendley has also been kind to Webb in an article last year titled REAGAN'S NAVY SECY: "WHITE AMERICA…AN ETHNIC FAIRY TALE." It looks forward to the day racial quotas crumble in the courts:
If it gets there, it will be met by new scholarship that undermines the factual basis for governmental distinctions between European Americans and select groups of non-European Americans. James Webb, the most highly-decorated Marine officer of the Vietnam War and Reagan's Secretary of the Navy, argues, in his first non-fiction work, Born Fighting, How the Scots-Irish Shaped America (New York: Broadway Books, 2004), that preferences are based on two erroneous assumptions: "[A]nyone who was not a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant had grounds for complaint about his or her people's collective 'struggle.' And anyone who was a WASP was by default a privileged, less-than-deserving whipping post."
Thus, because the history of the Scots-Irish, for example, was "both unknown and irrelevant" to Congress when it adopted racial quotas, the Scots-Irish, lost twice. "First, since the dominant forces in American society were by assumption the WASP hierarchy, to be white, Protestant, and of British heritage immediately lumped one in with the New England Brahmin elites…." ("In this perverted logic," notes Webb, it is as if all WASPS "had landed together on the same ship at Plymouth Rock and the smart ones had gone to Boston while the dumbest had somehow made their way to West Virginia.") "Second, [t]o be of Southern descent brought with it an immediate presumption of invidious discrimination and cruelty dating back to the slave system and the unequal, segregated society that followed it." This disregard for "the vast distinctions among white Americans" helped create "a statistical straw man of 'white America'" used to justify racial quotas, which "was nothing more than an imaginary façade. Indeed, white America is so variegated that it is an ethnic fairy tale."
Had Congress sought to give lie to the fairy tale, it could have done so. For example, writes Webb, in 1974, the University of Chicago's National Opinion Research Center (NORC) found that, "even prior to the major affirmative action programs, there was a greater variation within 'white America' than there was between white America and black America. [I]n terms of education and income, the whites at the bottom were in approximately the same situation as blacks." NORC's General Social Survey for 1980-2000 shows that, over the last thirty years, racial preferences have "exacerbated" the situation. Concludes Webb, "these members of our society can hardly be called advantaged in a way that justifies legal discrimination against them as interchangeable members of a supposedly monolithic white majority."
Pendley concluded: "If the Supreme Court wants a basis for ending racial preferences, in addition to its 1995 Adarand ruling, it could use James Webb's scholarship." I'd love to see someone read that at the next Washington Post diversity-training session.

Washington DC (SPX) Oct 28, 2013
Researchers modeling how changes in air flow patterns affect wind turbines' output power have found that the wind can supply energy from an unexpected direction: below.
According to the researchers, who report their results in the journal Physics of Fluids, many wind turbine array studies overlook the fact that important airflow changes occur inside the array.
"We discovered that a typical measure of the significance of flow changes was rather deficient," says Jensen Newman, co-author of the paper and a graduate student at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute's Department of Mathematical Sciences.
Inspired by a desire to describe the flow experienced by realistic wind turbine arrays in greater detail, the team created a model of how flow affects wind turbines' output power.
The researchers introduced a mathematical way to measure changes in the flow that gives a more accurate representation of the magnitude of these changes than other current measures. "It shows that in addition to energy being made available to the turbines from above, energy is also transferred from below," Newman explains.
The tools and methodologies developed by the team for calculating changes in the flow can now be applied to other studies -- for any type of flow with a repetitive pattern. Since they were also able to show that energy comes from below the rotors, it may be possible to exploit this by developing wind farms that draw more heavily on this previously unidentified source of energy.
Going forward the researchers plan to further expand the scope of their model. "We'll apply this analysis to the case of two-bladed vs. three-bladed turbines to identify the critical differences in flow patterns and how these affect turbine power production," says Newman.
"Similar analysis will be performed using much larger turbines to examine how the physics discovered here scale with turbine size so that the extrapolation of the results to full-scale wind farms can be better understood."
The paper, "Streamwise development of the wind turbine boundary layer over a model wind turbine array" by Andrew J. Newman, Jose Lebron, Charles Meneveau, and Luciano Castillo, appears in the journal Physics of Fluids.

"Most are at work because they need the money, more than a third of them are working 40 hours a week or more and most [77 per cent] are feeling quite exhausted."
The survey showed that just over half the working mums felt they had compromised their careers to have children and less than a third felt secure in their career as a result.
Only 35 per cent of the women surveyed felt they could afford the child they were about to have, 60 per cent were planning to go back to work after the birth and a further 20 per cent had still not made up their minds. But if money was no object, two-thirds would never return to work.
The top five problems encountered by working mothers were:
1) Feeling exhausted.
2) Guilt about being away from home.
3) Juggling responsibilities.
4) The expense of childcare.
5) Needing to take time off work.
Help was at hand, however, with 85 per cent of fathers taking time off for the first few weeks of the baby's arrival. Unfortunately, over half of them, 57 per cent, had to take annual leave because their employers did not grant paternity leave.
On average, women are working until they are 33 weeks pregnant but half work for two weeks beyond that. Women who work the longest into pregnancy live in NSW and the ACT with 4 per cent working right up to week 40.

Posted by Adam Solomon on July 28th, 2009. Connect with us on Google+.
The Pound rallied for the first time in three days against the Dollar yesterday, increasing 0.4% in London to a high of $1.65, as widespread U.S currency weakness allowed a challenge above significant resistance levels. Sterling also secured support from the overall improvement in global risk appetite, as UK stocks climbed and extended the longest stretch of gains since 2004.
The benchmark FTSE 100 Index swung between gains and losses through the course of the day but the increase in mining companies and gains in purchases of new homes in the U.S contributed to a 0.2% rally on the day. A record number of U.S companies from Goldman Sachs Group Inc to Caterpillar Inc beat analysts' projections for earnings estimates in the second quarter, increasing an air of confidence in financial markets and weakening the Dollar.
The FTSE 100 has now rebounded 31% since the low on March 3rd, amid speculation that the worst global recession since the Second World War has reached the bottom. U.S new home sales increased 11% in June, the biggest monthly gain in eight years, while the number of unsold properties saturating the market dropped to the lowest level in over a decade.
The Pound also rose 0.4% against the Euro and touched upon a high of 1.16 by the close of the European session last night. The difference between 10-year gilt yields widened to 260 basis points, from 240 basis points at the start of July. The steepening of the yield curve indicates investors increased bets that growth and inflation will begin to accelerate.
Inflation expectations rose for a third straight day as crude oil prices rose to the highest level in more than three weeks. The UK inflation rate will rise at the steepest pace among the Group of Seven nations next year and some economists believe that the Bank of England will be at the forefront of a global push to raise interest rates.
Willem Buiter, a professor at the London School of Economics and a former Central Bank policy maker, said that "the Bank of England could be the first out of the stable. If it goes too early, it might abort a fragile recovery and create a painful appreciation in the Pound. If too late, it may perceived as weak on inflation."
Higher interest rates will bolster the Pound, which has slumped close to 17% against the Dollar over the past year, and keep a lid on inflation as the economy rebounds from the worst slump in fifty years. Gains in Sterling would, however, come at the expense of exporters, which have reported higher sales on the lower value of the Pound.
The monetary policy committee, led by the governor Mervyn King, will prepare new forecasts this week for the August 6th interest rate decision. After the nine-member panel cut the benchmark interest rate to a record low of 0.5% in March, the UK should see 'some evidence of positive growth in the second half of the year.'
There are still very serious concerns over the economic outlook and the UK's debt position, especially after last week's GDP data, and rating agency Fitch warned that the recovery signs in the economy were probably not sustainable. The near-term downside risks to Sterling persist and reports yesterday indicated that the Bank of England may extend its asset-insurance program until November.
According to Carl B. Weinberg, chief economist at High Frequency in Valhalla, "the only tool the BoE has to influence the economy is quantitative easing, and we see no argument for ending that now. The gilt market is unsure of this, so we expect the bank's announcement to spark a rally in gilts and a flattering of the yield curve."
In the event that policy makers would extend or increase the quantitative easing program, the Pound would decline significantly against the major currencies and all eyes will be on the next BoE rate announcement in early August. HSBC Holdings Plc raised its pound-dollar forecast last week for the end of 2010 to $1.75, from $1.60, citing the likelihood that the Bank of England will interrupt its bond buying program next month and raise interest rates before the Federal Reserve.
The Bank of England reported that credit conditions had improved during the second quarter, but doubts over bank lending persisted and there is a very important risk that confidence in the economy will deteriorate further over the next week weeks. However, with the Dollar still on the defensive and risk appetite holding firm, the UK currency has continued to trade above $1.65 this morning.
The Euro maintained a firm tone in Asian trading yesterday and continued to challenge resistance levels through the course of the day. The Dollar fell towards its lowest level in seven weeks versus the single currency, as the global rally in stocks added to recent evidence that investors are shifting their focus towards high-yielding assets.
The Euro benefited from a stronger-than-expected increase in German consumer confidence to the highest level for over a year, while the increase in U.S new home sales further diminished the allure of Dollar denominated assets as a refuge. The U.S currency managed to find support at the lower levels and was able to recover back towards the $1.4230 region last night.
Investors will continue to monitor official comments on the Dollar closely this week, with the U.S Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner due to hold further meetings with Chinese officials. There will also be a series of press conferences today, which could potentially trigger further market volatility. The Dollar was unable to strengthen back through the $1.42 level this morning and remain susceptible to the underlying confidence in stocks.

Business Law
Ask a Business Lawyer. Get Business Law Questions Answered ASAP.
Hello and welcome to JustAnswer.com. I will attempt to answer your question. I am very sorry to see you are dealing with this issue. The issue of how to remove of directors from the Board should appears in your bylaws. California law states any of the directors of a nonprofit can be removed without cause by its members. If the nonprofit has 50 members of less, a vote of the majority of the entire membership is required for removal. If there are more than 50 members, a vote of the majority of the members present and voting at a duly noticed meeting with a quorum is sufficient for removal. For unusual cases of nonprofits with special voting rights, such as cumulative membership voting and class membership voting, the rights to remove directors by voting must adhere to the special rights specified in the nonprofit's bylaws(but you have indicated this is not the case here). If the nonprofit has no members, a director may be removed by a majority of the current directors. I hope this answers your question and ask that you kindly rate me positively after reading this or the service will not pay me for my work. For your assistance, I have forwarded this link with some general guidance as well. http://oag.ca.gov/sites/all/files/pdfs/charities/publications/guide_for_charities.pdf
Your answer does not cover problems we have raising a MAJORITY, plus, it does not address whether or not the elected officers of the organization are or were automatically considered as members of the board of directors even though our by-laws indicated the number 6 as board members ... not including the actual officers. Must the by-laws specifically indicate that the officers be counted in the non-officer board member number. If so, can we amend the by-laws at the same time and can we call an emergency meeting and/or declare an emergency situation of any number present so that we can establish a functioning board.
SORRY .... still not completely answering our situation. Under CA law, are the original principles forming the corporation considered DIRECTORS at that point???? And, if so causing an election to select organization officers, pres, secy and treasurer, etc STILL regards XXXXX XXXXX DIRECTORS??? If your answer is yes, then should those 5 individuals have been counted in the By-Laws as DIRECTORS??? Because we did not count them in that number when we created the actual By-Laws .... the number really should have been corrected when writing the By-Laws:
The corporation shall have not less than three (3) and not more than seven (7) directors, with the exact number to be fixed within these limits by approval of the Board of Directors or members, if any, in the manner provided in these bylaws.
As you can see the actual number should have been any odd number from 3 to 7 (or 11).
Finally, 3 individuals formed the entity; however, IRS notified us to increase the DIRECTORS to at least 7 which we did by approving 4 people as DIRECTORS which added to the original officer/directors totaled 7.
If this action is correct and accurate, then we always have a quorum with the new 5 officer/directors..... IS THIS CORRECT?????
YES!!!! That is the only question ... because, if you answer YES, then we will always have a QUORUM required to conduct official organization business. The correction to the actual By-Laws document will be easy to make AND .... removing the dysfunctional directors will be easy also.
I appreciate your "determination" to help us. HAPPY TO DO BUSINESS WITH YOU.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by Nunez21, Oct 15, 2013.
I we finish 8-8 or worse we go get a blue chip QB, and finish building the offense around him.
Finally we took a Center and it worked out pretty well...how about a Rushman... can we ask for a DT?
Don't you have to at least win your division before you can get that title?
Nope. The cap is going to have teeth to it for the Cowboys over the next few years. Watch and see.
I agree, we need a running back who can stay healthy...
Yeah that sucks.
Hope we can compete the sentence... " next years champs are here a year early"
The biggest mistake we do as Cowboy fans is overrate the talent on this team. BIGGEST mistake.
Well when you're constantly getting top 10 picks I would think you would at some point end up being a contender. Its been long overdue for the Chiefs. People have had them as a team on the up for the past 3 years now. This wasn't some overnight accomplishment for them.
It's Jerry's biggest mistake and the mistake of the scouts he hires to rate these players. Jerry is the one who signs off on drafting and signing these players. He's the one who admitted after the Packers crushed the Cowboys in 2010 that led to Wade's firing that he possibly overrated the players. It's also the FANS (homers) on this board that overrate the players.
When a team goes from 2-14 and the #1 overall pick to 6-0 the very next season that is an overnight accomplishment especially when they brought in a new HC and a new starting QB. When you make major changes like that you would expect at least a season or two for things to start gelling. Garrett has been the HC for almost 4 years you would think after all that time the Cowboys would be past the 500 funk by now. Be honest if you knew in Nov of 2010 when Garrett took over as the interim HC the Cowboys would have back to back 8-8 seasons in 2011 and 2012 and start off the 2013 season at 3-3 that's what you expected with the corp group he inherited and all the talent he's added since? How many years should it take for a coach to add enough pieces to have a winning season? Garrett won 5 of 8 games in 2010 with a team that wasn't near as talented as what he has now and he accomplished that with an aging backup QB. Call me impatient but I expected the team to be a lot further along that this after 4 freaking years.
The Cowboys roster has gone through a complete overhaul since 2010 and here they are 4 years later still stuck at 500. We've been watching teams the past season or two that weren't any better than the Cowboys in 2010 compete for SB's. I'm frankly shocked that Garrett gets the support he does from some with as little progress as the team has shown under him the past 4 years. I honestly don't see much difference in the team the Cowboys have now and what they had the past 2 seasons under Garrett. I mentioned earlier the Cowboys were 3-3 after their first 6 games in 2011. They were 3-3 after their first 6 games last season and here they are 3-3 again after their first 6 games this season. It's like watching a rerun every year with this team while Garrett continues to say it's a process. Every presser from him sounds like a repeat from last year and the year before. I guess he thought not wearing a ball cap during games this season would change things.
We're going all out with Romo.
I'll never understand this negative view on Red. He is getting the job done. He and staff are doing a fantastic job of two consecutive years of working through incredible injury circumstance.Guys, Garrett is here to stay and you might as well get use to it. Or you can continue to piss and moan, up to you.
or better yet, next year's REPEAT champs!
But first we need to win one before we repeat and go back to back lol
And now, I have been told that we can not find a way to sign a player like Byrd or any other high to moderately priced player to fill important holes on the team, because we can't afford the cap associated.
The Romo signing is, to say the least, prohibitive in this area. We are 40 Million, over the cap right now with projected payroll I would not count on us making any big moves in FA without giving up some talent.
As to Ware, if you believe that Jerry can leverage Ware to take a pay cut, without some sort of compensation, I think you have quit another thing coming. Ware will have a market in the NFL. He's already given us a break on his salary. The Cowboys need him way more then he needs us IMO. That's not going to happen with Ware IMO but I guess we'll see.
You base this on?
I'm tired of hearing 'next year'. I'll worry about 'next year' when THIS year is complete. I don't care about next year right now.
For me not even thinking about next year all I'm concerned with is this year. We have played a total of 6 games with 10 more in front of us. Right now the goal is the same as it was when the season started and that is to make it to post season and having a chance to do something once we get there.
If you watched the Chiefs last year you knew what their problem was. Terrible offensive play and terrible QB play. Its why they could just insert a bus driver like Alex Smith and come out the gate 6-0. People have been picking the Chiefs to be in the post season for a wild card spot for the past 2 or 3 years.
If you can sit here and look at this team and say we are underachieving than that's fair. I don't agree with it but its your opinion. But IMO, Garrett is getting more out of this team than he should be getting. I don't look at this team and ask myself "Are we being severely outcoached"? The answer is no. We're simply just as good as 90% of the teams in this league of parity.
That's how I feel. I don't care what our record is as long as we win the division and have some success in the post season. I'll wait and judge this team and their coaching at the end of the season. But to do it after 6 games is silly.
Your mixing up the current season 2013 with next season 2014. The Cowboys have indeed nearly maxed out the cap for 2013. The Franchise Tag for Spencer cannot be manipulated. It is 10.6M all applied to this season. Also, the "Mara penalty" that took 5M away from 2012 and 2013 will not be an issue in 2014.
Projected NFL payrolls always look huge at this time of year. Like I said, it was projected to be 40M over at this time last year and that did not include the 10.6M for Spencer or a new contract for Romo. Projected payrolls don't account for the restructuring of contracts that occurs every year.
Some people think that restructuring has to eventually catch up to a team because their pushing money into the future; however, with the ability to restructure, a team can continually push money into the future. Pushing money into the future is a Zero interest loan that gets renewed every year.
If an individual could get a zero interest loan, here is an example of what he could do with it:
Initially, you get a 2M loan for 2 years with zero interest to buy a house.
Year 1: You make 1M of payments on the loan.
Beginning of year 2: You get a new 2M loan and payoff the original loan. You have 1M remaining in your bank account.
Year 2: You use the 1M in your bank account to make payments on the new loan.
Beginning of year 3: You get a new 2M loan and pay off the original loan. You have 1M remaining in you bank account.
Year 3: You use the 1M in your bank account to make payments on the new loan.
Summary: You get a 2M house but only pay 1M. You always "owe" the other 1M but you never actually pay it back.
In real life, you can't do this because you can't get a Zero interest loan; however, in terms of the NFL salary cap, pushing money into the future is a Zero interest loan.
The NFL salary cap is obviously not as simple as the above example; however, the concept is similar. Some study estimates are that an NFL team can continuously operate with an "effective" salary cap of about 150% of the actual salary cap by continuing to push money into the future.
The final issue is that the salary cap increases most years. It is expected to make a significant jump at some point.

PAWTUCKET, R.I. (AP) — The famous Easy-Bake Oven that's been cooking up tiny treats for nearly 50 years has gotten a modern-day makeover, without its signature light bulb.
The federal government's move to phase out the incandescent bulb in the name of energy efficiency led to a redesign of the classic toy by Hasbro, which has long used the 100-watt bulb as the oven's heating source.
Some thought the Easy-Bake might be headed the way of the bulb. But instead, the toy got a top-to-bottom redesign, at the heart of which is a new heating element more like that of a traditional oven.
The oven, which retails for $49.99, is purple and curvy and has snazzy graphics. A company vice president says the goal was to make the Easy-Bake resemble a "real appliance," not just a plastic toy.

The First Time Mortgage-Backed Securities Failedby
During World War I, as cities pulled every young man who wasn't a doughboy into their factories, the U.S. became an urban nation.
After the war, there was a sharp and short depression in 1920 from which the cities quickly recovered, but rural America did not. That year, the census recordeed more people living in cities than in the country. Returning soldiers looked for work in the cities rather than return home. And all those people needed somewhere to live.
Thus was born the great housing boom of the 1920s. The wartime demand for city housing and businesses drove rents and prices as high as skyscrapers.
How would all the mortgages for these apartments and houses be funded? Lenders simply followed the people. For decades, urban investors had bought stakes in farm mortgage bonds. With the agricultural economy in such straits and the urban economy booming, groups such as the Farm Mortgage Bankers Association of America (which later dropped the "Farm" from its name) reoriented their sights on the cities, looking for ways to lend to these new urban dwellers, bringing their experience in turning mortgages into bonds.
Urban mortgage lenders in the 1920s stopped relying strictly on savers' deposits to fund home mortgages. They developed a bond to fund them, just like bonds had been used to finance farm mortgages. This "participation certificate" (or PC) wasn't marginal. At its peak, real-estate bonds funded one-quarter of all urban mortgage debt, equal in volume to the bond debt of industrial corporations.
The PC worked like a bond. An investor bought it from a mortgage company (called a bond house) or a small bank and received a monthly interest payment. At the end of a set time, usually a few years, the principal of the bond could be redeemed.
But unlike normal bonds, which were backed by the government or a corporation, these were guaranteed by mortgage payments -- usually balloon mortgages of homes or rental properties. The PC lacked the slicing and dicing used to securitize debt in more recent times, but the basic idea was the same: The mortgage holder received a monthly payment and then paid the PC investors.
Time magazine reassured readers in 1926 that "real estate bonds are by no means jeopardous investments. In fact, they should be the best of all securities, for they are backed by tangible buildings and real estate."
Such reasoning reassured investors then, as now, about the inevitability of rising house prices.
Banks loved the new invention because it allowed them to skirt regulations. Although the Federal Reserve regulated the proportion of savings that could be lent as mortgages (half of savings deposits) there were no restrictions on mortgages funded by bonds. These bonds, however, had a maximum length of five years, forcing the mortgage debt to be refunded, at minimum, every five years. But since the balloon mortgage, so popular in the 1920s, was refinanced every three to five years, there shouldn't have been a problem as long as more investors could be found.
Investors loved the bonds because they were issued in small denominations. Most PC buyers, unlike the sophisticated buyers of corporate bonds, had never purchased a bond before. Usually a salary man or a union man, the investor lived modestly and a $100 bond fit neatly in the annual budget. Every month, the investor received a complimentary magazine from his bond house that mixed in investment advice on the virtues of their bonds over the competition. Small men felt like big shots.
Yet though they looked like regular corporate bonds, PCs were not the same. Unlike corporate bonds, there was no secondary market. Most commercial banks refused to accept real-estate bonds as collateral; PCs were born toxic. But this mattered little to small investors because they intended to hold the debt to maturity.
Whether enough money was available at the bank to refinance the balloon mortgages of all those urban homeowners depended on whether the PC investors decided to reinvest their money. In good times, when it seemed like mortgage borrowers could make their payments, the PCs seemed like a reliable investment.
By 1925, however, things began to look more dubious. Those who wondered at the surge in property values were, according to the New York Times, condemned by developers as "unpatriotic." Developers paid their architects and contractors in mortgages, rather than cash, promising them a piece of the action down the line, putting none of their own money at risk. The system worked out fine for a few years, as rising rents propped up profits and the buildings themselves. New construction hit $690 million in North America in 1926.
After 1929, as home prices fell and the unemployment rate rose, such investments became more precarious. Without another round of investors, the underlying balloon mortgages couldn't be refinanced. Houses could be foreclosed on, but then who would buy them? As those PCs came due, skittish investors stopped reinvesting and the amount of money available for mortgages dried up. Whereas through the 1920s homeowners could easily refinance their balloon mortgages, banks now demanded they pay off the loan or face foreclosure.
Investor anxiety fed on itself and very quickly the U.S. mortgage-bond market was dead.
The housing crisis of the Great Depression wasn't caused by job loss as much as by the structure of the underlying financial instruments that anticipated rising asset values and easy refinancing, neither of which held after the Crash of 1929.
The Home Owners' Loan Corporation, inaugurated in 1933, slowed the collapse of the mortgage markets, but couldn't save the PC. After 1931, no more real-estate bonds of this type were issued. By 1935, about 80 percent of the $10 billion in real-estate bonds outstanding were in default. The restrictions against real-estate bonds in the federal securities legislation of 1933 and 1934 mattered less, in a contemporary economist's view, than the "distaste already acquired by investors for real estate bonds."
And until 1970, when Fannie Mae issued its first mortgage-backed security, that distaste remained a powerful force. Let's hope we can better remember this time around.

This memo explores the assumptions in Mark P. Mills' report titled The Internet Begins with Coal that relate to current electricity use "associated with the Internet". We find that Mills has significantly overestimated electricity use, in some cases by more than an order of magnitude. We adjust his estimates to reflect measured data and more accurate assumptions, which reduces Mills' overall estimate of total Internet-related electricity use by about a factor of eight.PB - Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory CY - Berkeley, CA SN - LBNL-44698 U2 - LBNL-44698 ER -

SIM cards are the brains of our mobile phones, but just like you and I, they can sometimes get a little… dirty, and need a bit of a wipe down.
You may have encountered a SIM Card Registration Error on your mobile phone at some point. This usually means that the phone is having trouble reading information from your SIM card. Often this can happen simply from dirt from your pocket slowly working its way into your phone.
The solution is surprisingly low tech! Usually all that's required is to turn off your phone, remove the SIM card from your device and wipe it down with a dry cloth. If you're not sure what your SIM card looks like, look behind your phone battery for a small rectangular piece of plastic with a gold chip.
If that doesn't fix the problem, there's another low-tech solution which can help. Remove the SIM card again and try blowing some air into the area where your SIM card sits. If there's some dust or debris in there, it can often help to clear it out.
If you're still having no luck, it's probably worth trying your SIM card in a friend's mobile phone. This will help to work out if the problem lies with your mobile phone or your SIM card. If the SIM still doesn't work in a mate's phone, we can replace it for you. The quickest way to replace your SIM card is to visit a Telstra store – we'll swap it on the spot.
Otherwise, if the problem seems to lie with your mobile phone, then you'll need to arrange repairs. If you purchased your phone from Telstra, please call us on 125 111 or visit a Telstra store and we'll be happy to help.
If you're travelling overseas, we haven't forgotten about you! We'll do our best to help out if you call +61 439 152 111.

Dollar rises two weeks in a row
Page Tools
The Australian dollar recorded its second straight weekly rise as equity and commodity price gains signalled that worldwide economic growth is picking up, increasing demand for the country's exports.
The currency rallied to its highest level in three weeks after US and Japanese reports indicating that growth in the two largest economies is accelerating bolstered stocks and commodities. Exports make up a fifth of Australia's economy, and 60 per cent of overseas shipments are of raw materials.
"The currency has traded very much on global growth perceptions as well as commodity price perceptions," said Alex Schuman, manager of foreign-exchange strategy at Commonwealth Bank. "The unwinding of risk aversion will continue and the Australian dollar will rise."
The dollar touched a three-week high of US72.01c around midday on Friday, before closing at US71.76c. It closed at US70.20c on the previous Friday.
The US economy grew at a 4.4 per cent annual pace from January through March, compared with a previous government estimate of 4.2 per cent.
The faster-than-forecast growth boosted the price of metals, including copper and gold, said Greg Gibbs, a senior currency strategist at RBC Capital Markets.
Gold, of which Australia is the world's third-biggest producer, rose to a one-month high on New York futures markets and copper surged to a five-week peak.

Branded Executive Resume Writer
What Job Seekers can learn from The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur
In July 2011 I attended the B.I.G. Summer Summit, where Mike Michalowicz, author, entrepreneur & marketing expert, was the engaging keynote speaker. He graciously gave the attendees a copy of his book, The Toilet Paper Entrepreneur: the-tell-it-like-it-is guide to cleaning up in business, even if you are at the end of your roll, under the premise that we all pay it forward investing the cost of the book with someone or an entity that needs it. I was already intrigued.
While I already donated my $20 to a worthy cause, I am eager to continue the good karma put forth by Mike by telling you how this book can help the job seeker. (Hey Mike—I am feeling the birth of the Toilet Paper Job Seeker Book initiative—as least I think that is what I am feeling).
