Bernanke blames tight credit for hindering U.S. economic recovery
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke blamed excessively tight credit conditions imposed by banks and mortgage lenders for hindering the U.S. economic recovery.
Here are the key excerpts from his speech at the Economic Club of New York on Nov. 20, 2012:
"Lenders have maintained tight terms and conditions on mortgage loans, even for potential borrowers with relatively good credit. Lenders cite a number of factors affecting their decisions to extend credit, including ongoing uncertainties about the course of the economy, the housing market, and the regulatory environment. Unfortunately, while some tightening of the terms of mortgage credit was certainly an appropriate response to the earlier excesses, the pendulum appears to have swung too far, restraining the pace of recovery in the housing sector."
"Banks' capital positions and overall asset quality have improved substantially over the past several years, and, over time, these balance sheet improvements will position banks to extend considerably more credit to bank-dependent borrowers. Indeed, some types of bank credit, such as commercial and industrial loans, have expanded notably in recent quarters. Nonetheless, banks have been conservative in extending loans to many consumers and some businesses, likely even beyond the restrictions on the supply of mortgage lending that I noted earlier. This caution in lending by banks reflects, among other factors, their continued desire to guard against the risks of further economic weakness."

Rebels and Rabble-Rousers (3 of 8) by Jeff Schreve
This content is part of a series.Rebels and Rabble-Rousers (3 of 8)
Series: Setting the House in Order
Pastor Jeff Schreve
Titus 1:5-16
If you have your Bible, please turn to Titus chapter 1. We're going through the Book of Titus on Wednesday nights, and we're calling this series, "Setting the House in Order." And so, tonight, we want to look at the last few verses of Titus chapter One.
Now, it was several years ago I went to Guatemala on a mission trip and worked with the group there in Guatemala that we have worked with for so many years. And there's a medical mission there and also a school, and so I was working in the hospital there. And one of the doctors that had gone with us invited me to scrub as we were going to do surgery together. And so that was a first for me. And the very first thing I noticed when you get ready to do surgery, even in a third-world country like Guatemala, you spend a lot of time preparing. There was a big basin there, and there was some special soap, and we had to scrub and scrub all the way up to our elbows before we put on the surgical gloves. And I don't know if that woman is still living that I performed the surgery on. Hopefully, she is. Doctor Brown, he had me reach inside her and kind of feel her heart. I had my hand all up inside of this woman because he said, "Feel the heart, but grab anything." I was like, "I'm not wanting to grab anything" (laughter). I'm just trying not to faint!
But, you know, I think it was around the Civil War time that we as a society figured out that there's something called a disease that gets in if you don't scrub up, if you don't clean yourself. You can't allow bacteria to come in when you're doing surgery, when you're opening somebody up, because if that happens the surgery is going to be worse. You know, the cure is worse than the sickness that the person had. But they're going to die for sure because then that stuff gets inside them. So you have to clean up. You can't have any germs in the operating room. Now, in Ch ...

By Charles Odum, AP Sports Writer
ATLANTA New Orleans cornerback Mike McKenzie suffered a fractured right kneecap on Sunday, forcing him to contemplate another long rehabilitation less than one year after having reconstructive surgery on the same knee.
McKenzie was carted off the field Sunday after suffering the injury while defending a third-down pass to Michael Jenkins.
"I hope I get credit for that (tackle)," McKenzie said, forcing a smile while leaning on crutches after the game.
McKenzie said he would return to Dr. James Andrews in Birmingham after the swelling goes down in his knee. Andrews performed the surgery to repair the torn right anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus after McKenzie was hurt in the Saints' 15th game against Philadelphia.
McKenzie, a 10-year veteran, said he was told this rehab could take three to six months.
"It's real disappointing," said Saints coach Sean Payton. "His (last) rehab process was very long and tedious. I'm disappointed for him and I'm sure the rest of his teammates feel the same way. ... Certainly, it's a blow to our defense. We've just got to get him healthy and get him fixed."
When asked if the second serious injury to his knee in less than a year could end his career, McKenzie said "I haven't gotten that far. ... I seriously doubt that."
The 32-year-old McKenzie said he suffered the injury when his knee hit the turf.
"It would be a little easier to take if I got rolled up on," he said. "This is the second time it just got caused by the turf.
"That turf was pretty tough today. ... As soon as my knee hit directly on that turf, I felt it break."
McKenzie missed the season opener while still recovering from in the Saints' 15th game against Philadelphia last season. He played in seven games, including six starts, and entered Sunday's game with 23 tackles and one interception. He has 27 career interceptions.
Payton reported other injuries: tight end Jeremy Shockey aggravated an ankle sprain, offensive tackle Jon Stinchcomb left the game with a calf injury, and fullback Mike Karney suffered a sprained MCL ligament in his right knee.

"Have you given us all of your information so that we can call you and send you seemingly non-applicable mail thinly related to your upcoming nuptials and for the door prize?" says the kind woman at the bridal-show desk.
At least that's what I hear. I was told there would be beer here. And that we could get chicken wings afterwards.
I'm newly engaged. There were a number of other steps that came before, but this one - the bridal show - is the one I'm at now. This is the step that is built least for me. I'm not sure why I came, honestly. She said I didn't have to go. I have no idea if she means it or if this is one of those things where I'm told I don't have to go if I don't want to, but its very clear to everyone but me that to skip out would be a bad idea. Also, I was told there was a groom's lounge. And that there would be beer there.
I'm at the Charlotte Wedding Connection bridal show at Charlotte Motor Speedway's Speedway Club. Wood paneling and black cloth partitions are occasionally interrupted by lace and business signs that would make even the most cold-hearted Kinko's employee smile. The nice desk ladies points out that I can wait in the groom's lounge, where there is a beer tasting. While unstated, the statement "You don't belong here, this is our place. Also, are you aware there is mustard on your jeans?" is implied.
First stop? Cakes. Well, the first first stop was mimosas at the door. But the second first step was cakes. This is actually a pretty nice part. Normally eating a teaspoon of cake from a tiny wrapper and having to look directly into the eyes of the salesperson would be uncomfortable, but this is good cake, so it takes the edge off. It also helps if you say "that's delicious!" which apparently everyone says. It's also the thing to say if you want them to keep giving you cake. I don't care if it's Pavlovian. I like cake.
I enjoy the gentleman in a white tux, a salesperson for the dove release company. I am struck by a few questions: 1) Is it a one-way transaction or do the doves come back after a set amount of time? 2) Do I get charged extra for birds that don't return on time/at all 3) Do you do only weddings or do you also do sideline work with the lucrative Charlotte peace treaty signing-ceremony industry? Also, why is there only one dove release company here? I want to be able to compare prices and perhaps play you off each other to get a discount. Mo' discount means mo' doves.
I am told my performance at the photo booth stand seemed "wooden," which wouldn't have happened if somebody would tell me where they're hiding the beer. The next area was all wedding dresses, hair, makeup services and other things that my mind has blocked. My fiancée saw the look on my face and said the blessed words, "You can go get drunk out of your mind now"... or "We're done with the group decisions, you should go to the groom's lounge now." Again, a bit fuzzy.
I head into the groom's lounge and find the beer sampling. I sample beer. Apparently, since there is no Groom's Show, the bar was the place to sell to men. The gentleman selling attire to grooms (you can spot him because he's male and not clutching a beer) asks if I would be interested in their casual wedding jeans, labeled The Protégé. Aside from those jeans being $129 and the mustard-stained ones I'm wearing, I see no significant reason to upgrade. Maybe a future version of 'The Protégé' will have mustard-stain fighting technology. Or Bluetooth.
I, beer in hand and not surrounded by a tyranny of lace, enjoy my sampling of beers as I watch what I'm guessing are the NASCAR time trials going on outside. I don't know. It was race cars doing stuff. At random intervals, my impending wife to-be comes to check on me to make sure that I hadn't run out of beer.
She finds me in increasingly good spirits, and I find her utterly adorable. Also, someone had sculpted her hair. I don't know what the hair-do is called, but it says "Hey, I'm a bride." She had that, and it will make her positively the fanciest girl eating chicken wings.
Eventually, she has her fill of cake samples, wedding DJ sample discs and entries into various contests, and it is time to eat.
Getting to stay in a bar watching cars go very fast and still getting credit for a day out helping her...I like my fiancée. Here's hoping the marriage will be equally fun. It should be. I was told there would be beer there.

Spent part of the day reading about founding of country and Gettysburg 150th anniversary.
We just bbq'd, had inlaws, folks, and kids.. Now it's time to relax and play games.
Hope you guys enjoyed your day.
Looks like I'll be getting another day off.. We've had more rain in the past couple weeks, it's ridiculous.

back to dry here. Have some mulching jobs lined up for next couple of weeks but things are starting to dry back out after a relatively wet June. Still in drought, though, and Texas sun doesn't take long to zap all the moisture out of everything.
Same here, I bid a new job last Sat, and haven't touched it yet. Rain, please go away.
Yesterday was the first day it hasn't rained almost all afternoon in probably a week or more.. I've been trying to get dirt out and a pool deck poured for well over 2 weeks but it just won't dry up enough..
I hope it dries up soon! I can only do so many projects at home.

Case Study
UberSimple creates AppPack- a mobile application that allows conference/trade show attendees to quickly create, share, and grow various types of contact and information and collateral before, during, and long after an event.
- Business videos
- White Papers
- Product Demos
- Special Offers
- Mobile Apps
- Infographics
Originally, after evaluating numerous providers, UberSimple chose to work with Amazon's EC2 for their development, staging, and production environments, in addition to hosting their public website and private customer portal.
"We were 'encouraged' to sign-up with the leading provider," says Brad Durbin, UberSimple's Founder and CEO. "However, once we got started we found that it was exceedingly difficult to work with and manage the EC2 dashboard/management console – so much so that we had to hire a specialist to assist us with EC2 deployment and maintenance."
"The complexity of EC2 is actually a deterrent to business because it causes a distraction from the actual goals of the business, adds Durbin. " In addition, they don't offer 'real' support services which left us spending significant time combing through FAQs, knowledge base, and usergroups in search of assistance."
While not specifically looking for a replacement provider, UberSimple heard about ProfitBricks at an industry event. The ProfitBricks Data Center Designer was the initial attraction.
"The DCD provides us with a live graphic overview of our entire Virtual Data Center. The technology is incredibly robust, yet so simple that we've actually used it during sales presentations with prospective customers to demonstrate how easy it is to scale our environment," says Durbin.
Acting as a "virtual white board," the Data Center Designer (DCD) is a "drag-and-drop" graphical user interface to help customers configure and manage their own virtual data center. Once satisfied with the structure, the data center can be activated with just a simple mouse-click, avoiding the complicated forms and tables required with 1st generation cloud computing providers.
Flexible, Simpler, Easier to Use
While very powerful and sophisticated, ProfitBricks is surprisingly simple and easy to use. "The ProfitBricks platform, including the DCD, is much more clean and natural data center environment, rather than an assorted bundle of various servers and services that other providers make you string together," says Antonio B, UberSimple's CTO. "Our Profitbricks Virtual Data Center is structured exactly as we would have set-up if we had done it ourselves. On top of that, it is so intuitive; we don't need any extra support services."
The ProfitBricks environment allows customers to completely customize their entire deployment, from a simple infrastructure backbone to a complex layout with substantial resources. Individual data center components, such as firewalls, sub-networks, and load balancers can easily be added with a simple mouse click. You select what you need and the DCD automatically provisions it.
Greatly Increased Speed and Performance
ProfitBricks operates an 80Gbit/s backend meshed InfiniBand network – 8x faster than typically deployed 1 or 10 Gbit/s Ethernet that is commonly used by other hosting companies – and CPU cores that equate to two to four compute units elsewhere.
Since moving to ProfitBricks, UberSimple has seen huge gains in speed and performance vs. AWS. One of the big reasons behind this was that ProfitBricks offers dedicated resources (CPU Cores, RAM) for truly virtual datacenters. Unlike other providers, ProfitBricks CPU cores are dedicated for your exclusive use and not shared among multiple customers.
Dramatically Lower Costs and Resource Man-Hour Savings
The pricing models among most cloud computing IaaS providers are astonishingly confusing and complex. Charges are often calculated according to criteria that are simply unknown to customers, such as I/O requests to a storage system. The consequence of this creative pricing is often that the costs are difficult to impossible to estimate with the end-result being an unpleasant surprise when the credit card invoice arrives. In addition, other providers have hefty extra fees for high-availability storage, personal support and system admin level troubleshooting
The ProfitBricks pricing model is the most simple and efficient among all cloud computing IaaS providers. In a nutshell, just like with an electric utility bill, customers pay only for the memory, storage, CPU/ processor, and bandwidth resources that are actually consumed. ProfitBricks calculates usage fees on a per-minute basis without any minimum-hourly usage requirements. No monthly subscription plans. No advance deposit or pre-payment. No peak/off-peak resource bidding.
UberSimple required 2.5 (full-time equivalent) systems administrators to manage the complexity inherent with EC2. Concurrent with the move to ProfitBricks, UberSimple now requires .5 FTE to complete the same tasks – an 800% savings. "We are a mobile application development company it does not make financial sense for us to have a team of system level experts, just to handle the deployment and management of our application in the cloud", said Durbin.
You'll learn:
- The Current State of Cloud Computing IaaS Pricing and Packaging
- Overview of Configurations
- Understanding Price-Performance In the Cloud, including ramifications to CPU, RAM, Storage, and Bandwidth.
- Evaluate IaaS providers - See how you can save 43% to 80%, while getting twice the performance
ProfitBricks APIs, Libraries and SDKs
With ProfitBricks, developers can choose between both a SOAP API and a REST API. Using these APIs, cloud computing developers and operations professionals can automate their multi-cloud IaaS processes by utilizing such popular current libraries as jclouds, Libcloud, Fog, and Python SDKs - which are all supported libraries at ProfitBricks.
These APIs assist you in leveraging the rich features and options offered by ProfitBricks. Even the ProfitBricks Data Center Designer, our integrated graphic user interface was built with the API.

Please note: A REST API is now available!

Access ProfitBricks Support for Popular Cloud Libraries
ProfitBricks offers support for three multi-cloud libraries at this time: jclouds, Libcloud, Fog - these popular open-source libraries enable developers and operations pros to automate their cloud infrastructure across multiple clouds or migrate applications and workloads from one cloud to another.
Access ProfitBricks Support for Popular Languages with these SDKs
ProfitBricks offers a PythonSDK that abstracts and provides complete coverage for all current API functions; the library is very specific to ProfitBricks and exposes advanced functionality you may not find in a cloud-agnostic library.

Vcu Basketball Coach
March 28, 2011 by staff
Vcu Basketball Coach, (AP) - Georgia Tech chose Dayton coach Brian Gregory to rebuild its basketball program in trouble, who went through difficult times after reaching the final of the national championship in 2004.
Dayton senior associate athletic director Dave Harper said Monday that Gregory was leaving for the position of Georgia Tech. He told his players at a meeting 07:30.
"He informed the school and met with the team," Harper told The Associated Press.
Georgia Tech officials would not comment, pending official approval of the contract of Gregory. The school is preparing to hold conference late afternoon news to announce a replacement for Paul Hewitt, who was fired shortly after his fourth losing season in six years.
The Dayton Daily News initially said Gregory left the Flyers. Athletic department of the school sent a tweet saying, "We wish her good BG and family."
The 44-year-old Gregory was coach at Dayton for eight seasons, posting a record of -94. He guided the Flyers to a pair of NCAA appearances, reaching the second round in with a reversal of West Virginia. Dayton also won the NIT in, beating North Carolina in the championship game.
Dayton had only one losing season under Gregory and won at least games five times. But the team out of a disappointing season, going -9 in the Atlantic and 22-14 overall. The Flyers have not reached the NCAA tournament for the second straight year, losing to Richmond in the final A-10 tournament.
They settled for a bid to the NIT and were defeated by the College of Charleston -84 in the opening round. The team lost star senior Chris Wright, and recently announced freshmen guard Juwan Staten and Brandon Spearman have been transferred.
At Georgia Tech, Gregory takes over a program that has come to winning a national title in 2004, but fell on hard times in recent years under Hewitt.
Wasps were 13-18 this season and 11 to the Atlantic Coast Conference at -11. Hewitt was fired two days after the season ended with another losing ugly, 59-43 at Virginia Tech in the opening round of the ACC tournament.
Make-work more difficult for the reconstruction of Gregory: Georgia Tech will not be a true home arena in his first season. The school is building a new campus arena on the site of Alexander Memorial Coliseum. Until it opens in 2012, the Yellow Jackets will split home games between the center and suburban Gwinnett Arena Philips Arena.
Georgia Tech athletic director Dan Radakovich said last week he hoped to have a new coach hired before the Final Four.
There was speculation the Yellow Jackets continue one of the coaches who made a splash at this year's tournament of the NCAA, such as Richmond or Chris Mooney commitment Shaka Smart.
But Mooney signed a contract extension of 10 years with the Spiders on Sunday night after leading them to the round of 16. Smart team is still alive in the NCAA tournament, reaching the Final Four for the first time.
So the work goes to Gregory, who takes over a program that has many inherent advantages: a rich tradition, members of ACC and a great city to be attractive to recruits.
One of his priorities will be to revitalize the fan base.
Over the losing seasons piled up, attendance plunged home dramatically. Wasps failed to sell any games this season at the arena of 9100 seats, averaging just 6,095 per game.
The empty seats evil Hewitt hopes to stay at work, even if the school owes him one and 7.2 million redemption in the next five years as part of a lucrative contract he signed after the Final Four season.
"Certainly, the atmosphere around the arena, lack of support from fans is certainly something that played into the decision," Radakovich said ignition Hewitt.
Associated Press Writer Dan Sewell in Cincinnati contributed to this report.

Alibaba Earnings Could Dictate The Next Move - Markets This Morning
- Fear Trumped Greed In The Stock Market Last Week.
- The Dollar's rise is offsetting earnings gains from oil's fall.
- Alibaba earnings on Wednesday could dictate the direction of U.S. markets.
Fear Trumped Greed In The Stock Market
After Friday's market action, there is little doubt that fear is trumping greed in U.S. markets right now, especially with billionaire Donald Trump leading the Republican field for President.
Over the last week, the Dow Jones Industrial average has lost 300 points, opening on Friday below 17,400 for the first time since February. The NASDAQ opened at 5,043, which is its lowest opening in almost a month, and declined about 100 points in just two days.
This could be much ado about nothing, or it could be the start of a new, bearish pattern for U.S. markets. With oil down 44% and the U.S. dollar up 18% over the last year, earnings are under pressure.
It's taking the shine off a market that, for tech investors at least, has been stellar so far this year, with popular stocks like Facebook (NASDAQ:FB) up nearly 21%, Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) up 25%, and Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) up an amazing 68%.
AMZN stock by amigobulls.com
The Almighty Dollar Will Hurt Corporate Earnings
The biggest problem is the almighty dollar, which is approaching its highs of early this year, before that, not in over a decade. When the dollar rises in value, earnings measured in other currencies are worth less and exports cost overseas buyers more. For instance, the dollar was trading at 46 to each Indian rupee five years ago. It now trades at almost 64. Great if you're going to visit friends in Mumbai, but if they're bringing Indian profits from iPhone sales to your Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) balance sheet, over one-third of them disappeared.
American exports are becoming uneconomic in many parts of the world, and imports are becoming cheaper, which fuels America's trade deficit, despite the fall in the price of oil. Things are only going to get worse if, as expected, the Federal Reserve decides to hike interest rates next month.
Is the U.S. Economy Too Strong? Stock Markets Seem To Think So
The Fed may hike rates despite the strong dollar because the U.S. economy is very strong. Adding in last month's 215,000 new jobs and the economy has finally recovered from the Great Recession, the greatest jobs calamity since the Depression of the 1930s. Salaries have not yet reached pre-recession levels, and over 10% of workers who want part-time work still can't find it, so many Americans still think the economy is doing poorly, even though things are great compared with other economies.
What Will The Stock Market Do This Week?
The result of all this is that media stocks and technology stocks, which led the market higher all year, rolled over big-time last week. Walt Disney (NYSE:DIS) was a disaster, losing about 10% of its value after concerns were raised about future earnings from its ESPN cable channels. Other stocks also fell, and the big question for today is whether we're due for a bounce back up.
My own crystal ball says yes, we are. Technology and services remain very, very strong, and with earnings from food companies like Sysco (NYSE:SYS), restaurants like Red Robin (NASDAQ:RRGB) and department stores like Nordstrom (NYSE:JWN) coming in, we may be due for some good news.
Just watch out for Alibaba (NYSE:BABA), due to report earnings on Wednesday before stocks open. If they fall well below the 41 cents/share earnings expected, it may be a signal that China is in even-bigger trouble than previously believed and we could be in for another selling wave.
No one's crystal ball is perfect, after all.

Pfizer's Celebrex Under Review
Risks linked to arthritis drug prompt caution; FDA will examine dataDec 18, 2004 | www.theday.com
Pfizer Inc.'s announcement Friday morning that Celebrex, its widely prescribed arthritis medication, showed increased risk of heart attacks and strokes in patients taking higher than normal doses prompted some doctors to decide not to write new prescriptions for the drug as they await more information about its safety.
"I have stopped prescribing Celebrex as of today, until the safety profile is clarified,� said Dr. Vijay Sikand, who practices family medicine and gerontology and is medical director of the Visiting Nurse Association of Southeastern Connecticut.
The cardiovascular risks cited by Pfizer were similar to those that caused the withdrawal two months ago of Vioxx, a similar drug made by Pfizer competitor Merck & Co. After Vioxx was pulled off the market, many patients were switched to Celebrex and Bextra, a stronger Pfizer painkiller, boosting sales significantly. Pfizer, noting that the higher risks emerged in only one of two long-term studies and that numerous previous studies have verified the safety of Celebrex, said it would continue to offer Celebrex and conduct further studies. Celebrex, Bextra and Vioxx are all COX-2 inhibitors, a relatively new drug family.
"We have two conflicting results from these studies,� said Mary Ann Caprino, a Pfizer spokeswoman. "Both studies were with cancer patients taking four to eight times the recommended daily dose for arthritis patients. It does not mirror how arthritis patients typically use this medicine.�
In response to the Pfizer announcement, the federal Food and Drug Administration said Friday afternoon that it would review all data from the studies and from the dozens of other ongoing trials involving Celebrex. Once that work is complete, it will determine whether it will take regulatory action.
In the meantime, the FDA advised doctors to consider switching patients to other medications. If Celebrex is still considered the best choice for an individual patient, the FDA said, doctors should prescribe the lowest dose possible.
Dr. Sandeep Varma is among local doctors heeding the FDA's advice.
"We are being a lot more careful,� said Varma, medical director of the Rheumatology Department at The William W. Backus Hospital in Norwich. "For patients who are really apprehensive, it makes sense for them to stop taking it.�
After the Vioxx withdrawal, the FDA announced that in February it would re-examine the safety of all COX-2s. In the last two weeks, it also told Pfizer to add new warnings to Bextra labels noting the risks of giving the drug to those who had recently had heart bypass surgery.
Dr. Varma said that for now, he won't write any new Celebrex prescriptions. Patients currently taking the drug, he said, should see their doctors to consider all alternatives. They might also consider a lower dose of Celebrex, or taking it every other day instead of every day, he said.
Dr. Sikand said he also is directing his current Celebrex patients to use a different anti-inflammatory, such as ibuprofen or naproxen, at least temporarily. He estimated that he has written hundreds of prescriptions for Celebrex for pain relief for short- and long-term conditions. It is Pfizer's fifth-largest selling drug and has been the most popular of the COX-2 inhibitors, which interfere with production of the body's inflammation-causing enzyme, cyclooxygenase2.
"Celebrex is not a life-saving drug, and we have many alternatives,� said Dr. Sikand. "When such information becomes available, it behooves you to act on it.�
Other doctors, however, remain confident in the safety of Celebrex at standard doses of 100 to 200 milligrams daily and continue to believe that its benefits to patients, mainly relief of pain and inflammation without gastrointestinal bleeding, outweigh the risks.
"There's a lot of drugs that if you give too much, you're going to have problems,� said Dr. William White, professor and cardiologist at the University of Connecticut Health Center in Farmington, adding that he has never prescribed more than 200 milligrams per day.
All three doctors also noted that every medication, even those that have been in use for decades, pose some risks.
White said Pfizer acted responsibly by releasing the information about the studies within hours after seeing the data. Merck has come under sharp criticism for withholding potentially damaging study results about Vioxx long before it withdrew the drug.
The studies at the heart of Friday's announcement involved testing the use of Celebrex to prevent cancerous colon polyps in those who have previously had polyps removed. It is one of dozens of studies being conducted at hospitals and medical centers across the country to determine if Celebrex is an effective treatment for conditions for which it is not currently approved, such as various types of cancer and Alzheimer's disease.
The colon polyps study, conducted by the National Cancer Institute, found that patients taking 800 milligrams of Celebrex daily were 3.4 times more likely to have a heart attack, stroke or other serious cardiovascular event than those taking a placebo, according to the FDA. Patients taking half that amount had a 2.5 percent greater risk, the FDA said. Patients had been taking Celebrex for an average of almost three years.
The FDA noted that a similar comparison study, involving patients taking 400 milligrams of Celebrex daily, showed no increased risk.
The two studies involved 3,600 patients.

It's been a known fact that The Robertson family, famous from the TV show Duck Dynasty, are Donald Trump supporters.
Willie Robertson has made appearances at rallies and even spoke at the Republican National Convention in support of Trump.
His father, Phil, is on the Trump Train by default. He originally endorsed Ted Cruz for president, but once Cruz suspended his campaign, Phil felt he needed to be "loyal to the party" and shift his support to Trump.
Willie's daughter, Sadie, recently revealed her endorsement of Trump, and now another family member has revealed who he is voting for, but it might surprise you.
Uncle Si stopped by Fox News last week to promote his brand new book, Si-Renity: How I Stay Calm and Keep the Faith and things got political.
"I'm going to vote for God as president," he said. "Let me tell you why I'm doin' that, okay? Number one, it's impossible for Him to lie. Number two, He is going to do what's right, okay, because He loves this United States of America, and number three, that's the truth, okay, because He was with us from the founding of this nation."
As for the rest of America? He gives them a little advice when choosing a candidate.
"Vet your candidate against the standard. That's the standard, okay. Love this United States of America, do what's right, okay, and stick with the truth," he said.

We have tried pinging Blogger website using our server and the website returned the above results. If blogger.com is down for us too there is nothing you can do except waiting. Probably the server is overloaded, down or unreachable because of a network problem, outage or a website maintenance is in progress...
If the site is UP but you cant access the page, try one of the below solutions:

Fix DNS Problems
A Domain Name System (DNS) allows a site IP address (192.168.x.x) to be identified with words (*.com) in order to be remembered more easily, like a phonebook for websites. This service is usually provided by your ISP.
Clear your local DNS cache to make sure that you grab the most recent cache that your ISP has. For Windows - (Start > Command Prompt > type "ipconfig /flushdns" and hit enter). For details choose your operating system :
If you can access a website at office or from a 3G network yet it's not working on your computer, it is a good idea to use an alternative DNS service other than your ISPs. OpenDNS or Google Public DNS are both excellent and free public DNS services.
Check our help page for step-by-step instructions on how to change your DNS.

Ремень хороший. Натуральная кожа.
These are very good quality watch bands at a very low price. An excellent buy! Just measure the diameter of your existing watch strap carefully to determine which strap to replace it with, so you won't be surprised if it doesn't fit perfectly.
Was looking for some time the right replacement band. This one was the right fit.

text: Wireless technology keeps oil and gas flowing27 Sep 2013 03:41 PM Robust, resilient, intrinsically safe wireless communications are critical to oil and gas operations. George Malim examines what they need and how they specify systemsOil and gas companies operate in diverse locations and have to contend with harsh climates, geopolitical instability and poor infrastructure. Wireless communications are therefore of heightened importance and customers in the industry demand great resilience and security.'What sets the oil and gas industry apart from other sectors is the importance of staying connected throughout all stages of a project lifecycle,' says Gerbrand Schalkwijk, the vice president of enterprise energy at satellite provider Inmarsat. 'Maintaining reliable communications is critical for speeding up the exploration process, reducing downtime, and keeping crew and assets safe and secure. From regulatory compliance requirements to keeping product flowing to bandwidth intensive crew welfare solutions, having a robust communications solution from a reliable provider is a fundamental part of operations in the oil and gas industry,' observes Schalkwijk.Safe and reliableOthers see safety, in addition to reliability, as the prime demand. 'The key issue in the oil and gas market is safety critical communications,' says Grant Notman, head of sales and marketing at Wood & Douglas. 'Many companies are specifying intrinsically safe products to ensure that there is no risk of danger from fire or explosion. The other key aspect is high levels of reliability in a durable package. The oil and gas industry operates everywhere from under water to underground and also in some of the most politically unstable parts of the world. The industry's two key priorities are safety and durability,' says Notman.Brian Anderson, the vice president of marketing at Sierra Wireless, sees resilient solutions as absolutely critical, along with safety. 'The key differentiator in the oil and gas industry is the environment as it can pose significant challenges to the resilience and reliability of a product,' he says. 'Just imagine a gas pipeline in Northern Canada where the climate is baking hot in summer and frozen solid in winter. Such a hazardous environment requires an intrinsically safe product that needs to be reliable, especially when deployed over a large geographic area.'In addition, Schalkwijk points out that oil and gas exploration and production are becoming increasingly automated, creating a greater reliance on data communications to power the digital oilfield. 'Without a highly robust data network, efficiencies in automation within the oilfield are hard to sustain,' he adds.For Stephen Patrick, a director at Wireless Excellence, there are a range of applications for wireless in oil and gas which need to be considered carefully. 'Projects we've been involved in for oil and gas companies involve several parts of their networks, specifically,' he says. 'Wireless links from land out to offshore oil rigs typically carry data, voice and video services to the rigs. The links are designed to be resilient to cope with a wide range of environmental conditions, including storms, dust, sand, salt water, waves, and generally harsh climates, and challenging transmission environments for radio and microwave links.'Wireless linksPatrick adds that companies also use wireless links in cities where infrastructure is poor to communicate between sites. Finally, the needs of energy exploration companies are highly specific. 'We have provided wireless links for energy exploration companies, to use to connect seismic sensors across obstacles such as rivers, roads and other places where cables cannot be run,' he says. 'The precision of the survey depends on the resolution of the sensor network and accuracy of the data, so these wireless links are critical in completing the survey results – from which, energy companies can decide where the most efficient places to drill to access the underground reserves.'Security and precision seem to be the key demands and the industry seems less price sensitive if it can be assured that the solutions achieve these. 'This is true of this market as much as any other,' says Notman. 'But it also depends on circumstances. We provide wireless services to – amongst others, the provider of gasometers in the UK, offshore oil exploration and oilfields in Africa. The more critical the communications required by the industry, the less price sensitive the solution.'Exploration data, for example, is extremely sensitive. 'Most corporate customers demand high security when considering any aspects of their IT networks – including wireless,' says Patrick. 'Reliability of communication is essential for all modern networks and customers expect not only reliable wireless equipment, but properly designed networks, as well as localised support and maintenance provision. The total budget for a wireless network usually includes all aspects including the installation and maintenance.'For Anderson, higher stakes means a heightened security requirement. 'Most industrial applications require both security and precision, the difference between sectors lies in the different levels of risk associated with the consequences from a product failing to deliver on these requirements,' he says. 'With high stakes in the oil and gas business, product performance and specification becomes the biggest driver in the buyer's mind.'That has an impact on how oil and gas organisations procure services. 'For some applications, such as seismic survey – portability is an absolute must – the survey equipment is laid out and sites prepared, the seismic charges detonated, and then everything rolled back up and packed away for deployment for the next survey,' says Patrick. 'Time costs money in any industry, and energy surveys are no exception, including when the conditions are harsh, such as frozen tundra or deserts, where unwanted additional time in the field can be painful for people and equipment alike.'For drilling sites, wireless equipment can be moved around as the application and sites demand, increasing flexibility and enhancing the ability to adapt to changing conditions,' adds Patrick. 'Wireless of course is a highly portable technology, and links can be taken around the world and redeployed at ease.'In-house and outsourcedThird parties are usually engaged to manage sites and it is those that specify communications. 'It varies by company but the larger companies prefer managed services,' says Schalkwijk. 'They hire communications companies as a contactor to manage their communications – or at least a large part of their communications. 'If wireless refers to all forms of wireless/radio, then the larger companies contract these services out using RFPs, which they manage via service level agreements. Some companies have a mixed approach where they have considerable in-house expertise to purchase, provision, and maintain portions of their own communications infrastructure.' Notman also sees that: 'Most of our business comes as OEM into a specialist company that then sells into the industry,' he says. 'The oil and gas industry tends to secure the services of a supplier who will then look for specialist companies to fulfil specific parts of the roll out.'Wireless magazineLeave a CommentPlease write code to prove you're humanMore on...

A Healthy Dose of IT

Healthcare Technology Outlook 2020 Technology uptake [Source: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8J6-W38YuU4]
Medicine has advanced to the point where the world's average age expectancy is steadily on the rise. For all that quantity, however, there remains the issue of quality. Lots of people are living long lives - far longer than, say, a century ago - yet instead of receiving cures to conditions, they're requiring a staggering amount of sustained and constant treatment while doing so.
That's where the right Information Technology comes in. The healthcare industry won't be able to continue making the same kind of gains it's made in the last 50 years. Without the right IT, the healthcare industry also won't be able to narrow the gap between simply extending lifespans and improving the quality of those lives.
It wasn't too long ago that the prospect of wearing a wristwatch-sized computing platform that could monitor and rely your vital signs to a doctor was a thing of science fiction. Today we have the advantage of deciding between such computers - even based on color and style! The next version of those platforms will inevitably be microscopic chips placed under the surface of the skin. No fashion decisions required.
What these development mean to the quality of healthcare is that medical providers will be more in touch with individual patients and also able to aggregate massive amounts of medical data. Even search engine companies are noticing that when people in certain areas of the world are entering keywords like "flu symptoms," there's a good chance that the virus is spreading in that area. One such search engines was able to determine the likely areas of flu outbreaks more rapidly than the U.S. Centers for Disease Control, which still depend more on traditional data-gathering techniques.
Can Information Technology that was developed for the aerospace & defense industry be applied to the healthcare sector? You bet it can. The healthcare industry is even learning from consumer friendly retail sites whose algorithms help shoppers find discounted hotel rooms and airline tickets. If you're in a big city and it's flu season, it sometimes can be difficult to get an appointment to see a doctor immediately. What new healthcare Web sites are doing is to apply the same retail notion to medicine: If someone cancels an appointment with a doctor at the last minute, you will be notified via text and can get in to the office for treatment a lot more quickly.
Of course, with the right IT platforms, who says the future is filled with trips to a doctor's office? Much of the analysis, diagnosis, and treatment will increasingly be done online. Think about the ramifications remote treatment can be for people who live in extremely remote and/or rural communities. Healthcare IT encompasses a lot more than most people think. It's about leveraging informatics, Big Data, and software solutions to design products and services that can be used by just about every relevant party: health insurers, hospitals, healthcare product providers, health management providers, pharmacy benefit managers, retail pharmacies, pharmaceutical & biotech firms, and even medical device manufacturers.
Information Technology is changing the world of medicine: The healthcare analytics solution from Infosys, for example, allows payers to accelerate their innovation agenda, differentiate their products and services, enhance customer experience, and achieve greater operational efficiency. It's a solution that we created because of both increased competition and the need to reduce administrative costs - all while enhancing customers' experience.
The whole value chain has changed: sales and marketing, operations, care management, provider management, member management, and finance & compliance. Using data-driven insights to formulate strategies is now a major focus for health plans. And it will be for patients as well.
