HOUSTON, April 30 (Reuters) - Southern California Edison (SCE) may decide to retire one or both reactors at its San Onofre nuclear station by year end if U.S. nuclear regulators deny its request to restart one of the station's damaged nuclear reactors, said Ted Craver, chief executive of SCE parent Edison International on Tuesday.
Both units at the 2,150-megawatt San Onofre nuclear station, located halfway between Los Angeles and San Diego, have been shut since January 2012 following discovery of a serious problem with accelerated degradation of tubes in the units' new steam generators.
SCE is seeking approval from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to restart Unit 2 at a reduced rate and to run the unit for five months.
Uncertainty over the timing of an NRC decision and over SCE's ability to recover costs associated with the extended outage are weighing on the company, Craver said on a call with analysts.
"Our overarching desire is for the various outside parties to let the nuclear safety technical work proceed at the NRC to ensure a safe and timely restart of Unit 2 without unnecessary delay," Craver said.
However, a growing number of elected officials and anti-nuclear groups are calling for a full public hearing of safety issues at the San Onofre plant before the NRC decides to allow either unit to restart.
"Without a restart of Unit 2, a decision to retire one or both units would likely be made before year-end 2013," Craver said.
He declined to detail the company's plan, saying that "there are many potential decision scenarios involving Unit 2 and Unit 3."
"We look to narrow these uncertainties and the potential operating scenarios for both units before the end of the year," Craver said.
The absence of the San Onofre nuclear output increased California's dependence on natural gas-fired generation. While gas prices in 2012 were 30 percent lower than in 2011 in California, average wholesale electric prices eased just 2 percent, the California grid monitor said in a report issued Monday.
SCE has spent $109 million on San Onofre repair costs and $444 million to buy replacement power to serve its customers.
"It's difficult for us to see continuing to underwrite the costs without clarity on the rate-making treatment; without clarity on what the NRC decision is going to be," Craver said.
Loss of San Onofre's output has strained southern California's power grid and state agencies are planning for a second summer without the plant.
Craver said the utility seeks recovery from Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, which manufactured the replacement steam generators and from a nuclear industry insurance fund.

Virtually all employees must be covered by the Workers' Disability Compensation Act insurance (MI Comp. Laws Sec. 418.101et seq. or MI Stat. Sec. 17.237et seq.). The only exceptions are the following:

"No-fault" system. Workers' compensation is a no-fault system. Unlike traditional legal mechanisms for compensating accident victims--that limit recovery to cases in which the victim's injuries result from some other person's negligence--workers' compensation laws allow employees to collect without regard to fault, simply by showing that the injury arose "out of and in the course of employment." Compensation is guaranteed in such cases. It doesn't matter that the employee (or a co-worker) was partly at fault, nor does it matter that the employee knew the job was risky. "Contributory negligence," "assumption of risk," and other defenses normally used by defendants in accident cases do not apply to on-the-job injuries. In return for this guarantee of compensation, employees give up the right to sue the employer for damages, thus effectively limiting the employer's liability for workplace injuries.

This cozy knotty pine paneled cottage on Beavertail in Narragansett Bay is a classic beach vacation home. The water is approximately 250 feet from the front door, down a set of private stairs with deeded right of way.
There are flat rocks for sunbathing or fishing, good snorkeling and a very nice cove, Hull Cove, with a sandy beach just five minutes walking to the left along the water's edge. The town beach is approximately 10 minutes by car. The town center of Jamestown is a few minutes further, with cafes, shops, bakery, bars, restaurants and a marina. By car, you can cross the bridge to Newport in approximately 15 minutes. Next door property is also available for family reunions.
House features oak and cherry floors and a traditional beach cottage character.
historical information: This neighborhood was originally developed for and by fishing enthusiasts prior to the 1950's. Many of the houses subsequently incorporated the original fishing houses into their more modern renovation. This house was renovated in the 1950's by the then retiring owners. They built a large kitchen, a bath and two bedrooms onto the original fishing structure, and added central heating, making it one of the first year-round houses in the neighborhood.
One can identify the original structure by the flooring: cherry wood was used to floor the original, with pine paneling on the walls. The remainder of the house was floored with oak, but again using pine paneling on the walls. While there has been some thoughtful updating, the feeling of the cottage is very true to its time, and so has a very strong feeling of nostalgia!
If you enjoy excitement and action, but would like a quiet retreat at the end of the day, or prefer being away from the excitement all day long, this is the place for you. This location is exceptional for its proximity to the water and its convenient access to culture and tourist attractions in downtown Jamestown, and Newport, while keeping the hubbub at arm's length. Enjoy gorgeous views and private access to the ocean with a location that pays homage to a simpler time.
This property is next door to the house (HomeAway #111808) my parents purchased in 1969, when I was in 9th grade. We all fell entirely in love with the house, the neighborhood, and of course our easy access to salt water. Years later, as my children came along, we purchased 17 Grey Gull so that we could be close to my mother (and the ocean!) without imposing. Though this seemed a very daring and uncharacteristic move for us, we have never regretted it. As a Rhode Island native living in Utah, it is essential that we return to the ocean every year.
In many ways, this area has changed very little, and our two houses are certainly part of that tradition. Life is very simple here, and more than one guest has remarked that they "become a different person here." I love the practicality and resourcefulness that the original dwellers brought to the building of this home. The kitchen is really very large, and as so often happens, it is the center of everything indoors. It is nice to gaze at Hull Cove from the breakfast table, or go out to the front patio with your coffee. Relaxing in the living room is easy, with a good book and a nice view of ocean, sky, greenery and wildlife
Dear Diane & Chris,
We had a wonderful time on Conanicut Island! We love your charming cottage and really appreciate the impeccable maintenance...very clean and cozy. We swam, sat on the rocks, ate at Trattoria Sympatico, watched the sunset at the park...all awesome! I loved the picture window-every few minutes I looked and it framed a new, stunning scene!
This home was perfect for my husband and I to vacation near the water. We cooked at home and there were plenty of utensils, pots and pans etc. to do the job. There was even a new little grill there upon our arrival. We spent the week biking, running, exploring Newport and visiting friends in Jamestown. If you are looking for a small, well-appointed house, this is it. The Lighthouse and Bird-watching are close by, and the beach is two miles down the hill. If you are looking for luxury and largess, this is not for you. We would stay again. Thanks!
My husband and I took our two year old to this cottage the week of July 4. The house is perfect for families with children; it is well decorated but also well childproofed. Our son immediately dubbed the cottage the "tree house." He had so much fun that it took him three days to notice there wasn't a TV in the house. Diane provided many things we needed to enjoy ourselves: towels, bed linens, pots, and dishes. We spent our mornings walking along Hull Cove. My husband and I sat on the front porch area and read while our son napped. We visited Mackerel Cove Beach a few evenings. We went into town a few times, enjoying the library, playground, and downtown shops. My son loved visiting Beavertail Lighthouse so much, we went three times during the week. We had such a wonderful visit that we decided to make it a yearly family tradition.
We had a lovely stay at Jamestown. Rented bikes for the entire time from NBX in Narrangansett (who delivered them to our door) and covered ALL of Conanicut Island, visiting Beavertail Light multiple times. Lovely and dramatic! Farm stand for fresh veggies and grassfed meats. Just one day went off the island, drove to dinner on Newport, where the parking was not nearly as difficult as we had been warned. Would have been nice to bike around there too. There's a funky bakery cafe open just on the weekend (owners might be able to direct you to it) where we enjoyed great breakfast on our last day. We found out it offers brick oven pizza only on Sunday and we missed it -- will aim to go there next time. FYI, the "ocean view" isn't really what I expected, but the "ocean access" is the real thing -- you can go boulder hopping along the rugged coast, spend many happy times. Really a relaxing, comfortable, well-outfitted place, on a great island.
We loved this little cottage. It was perfectly comfortable and alowed us easy access to Newport. We had a really nice time. It's clean, comfy, and you can use the little kitchen easily for meals.
Conanicut Island is truly a special place and Beaver Tail is the nicest area on the island. Jamestown was also just a great vacation town. The location of the house is great- a very short walk to the ocean. The house needs help. We had to go and buy a temperpedic mattress after the first sleepless night- the mattress was so musty and old- it was painful. The bathroom- well you need to be very tiny- about the size of a 6 year old to fit in it. There is not a comfortable place to sit in the house. The kitchen is a good size but needs some serious TLC. Come to the area just not this house.
I have been renting this house for 10 years because I just love the charm of the cottage, the views, and the proximity not only to the immediate water at Hull Cove, but also to Jamestown Center (5 minutes) Newport and Narragansett (both about 15 minutes). My son has grown up coming here – and the sizable yard and dead-end street is perfect for children.
The cottage is quaint and has any amenities you need to support a vacation that is about unplugging (no TV, internet, cable, etc.) and relaxing (has outdoor bistro table, a charcoal grill).
Enjoy beach combing, snorkeling or fishing, just 250 feet away, plus all the usual tourist/non-tourist cultural, shopping and entertainment opportunities just over the bridge in Newport.
Guests tell us the typical tranquility of our neighborhood is so wonderful to come home to, particularly if they have partaken of the tourist activities and associated crush in Newport, and on a much smaller scale, downtown Jamestown. We understand completely, as we love nothing better than to spend most of our time at the water, in the water, walking the shoreline, and waiting for the stars to come out.
Ferry service to Newport, and on to Providence- a great rainy day outing.
Further afield, enjoy access to Providence , New York or Boston via auto, or train from Kingston Station.
Other Activities: bird watching, beach combing, kayaking, paddle boarding, and biking.

Using Mini Cupcakes For Samples ~??
Decorating By kellertur Updated 10 Feb 2009 , 1:00pm by kellertur
(if this belongs in the cupcake forum, I appologize )
I want to start dropping off cake samples at local businesses again, but this time I thought it might be easier to make mini cupcakes instead of small cakes (which ARE PITA, as I've found).
** Who also does this, and do you make several flavors/frostings and just drop off a few at each business? What is your plan?
Thanks ~
Anyone? (((( echo ))))
why hello hello hello hello (like my echo ) just kidding ya. I know it's late and hard to get responses right now.
Mini-cakes are a PITA!!!!! Mini-cupcakes are very easy. When I made mini cupcakes before I would just put a little swirl of icing on them and that was it. Usually one or 2 flavors are enough to do. That is unless you have a killer flavor that others love and can use as a signature items for K2's cakes and use as a marketing tool.
You rock!!! Thank you...
I want to get them out today.

Gender Equality
[New] Gender Equality in Academic and Research: the GEAR TOOL for setting up Gender Equality Plans is now available!
The European Commission is committed to promoting gender equality in research and innovation (R&I). It is part of the Commission's Strategic engagement for gender equality in all EU policies for the period 2016-2019. In addition, the EU has a well-established regulatory framework on gender equality, including binding Directives, which apply widely across the labour market including the research sector.
Though gender inequalities in R&I persist, the latest "She Figures" publication shows that some progress has been made, although attrition continues to exist at higher levels of a scientific career. The most recent data indicate that women made up 47% of PhD graduates in the EU (EU-28), but made up only 33% of researchers and 21% of top-level researchers (grade A). It is even lower at the level of heads of institutions with a mere 20 %. These figures show that only limited progress has been made since 2011.
Because of the peculiarities of the research sector, specific action is needed to overcome persisting gender gaps. Gender equality is addressed in European Research and Innovation policy in two different ways: through its main funding instrument Horizon 2020, and within the European Research Area in collaboration with Member States and research organisations. It pursues three objectives, namely:
- gender equality in scientific careers,
- gender balance in decision making, and
- integration of the gender dimension into the content of research and innovation.
Gender equality in the European Research Area (ERA)
Gender equality has been one of the priorities of a "Reinforced European Research Area Partnership for Excellence and Growth" (ERA) since 2012. To this end, Member States are invited to remove barriers to the recruitment, retention and career progression of female researchers, address gender balance in decision making and strengthen the gender dimension in research programmes. Member States are encouraged to create the appropriate legal and policy environment to incentivise institutional changes in research organisations and correct the remaining gender biases.
In 2013 and 2014 the Commission published an ERA Progress Report, which highlighted the progress made towards the completion of the ERA. The new report will be published towards the end of 2016.
» Council Conclusions on advancing Gender Equality in the ERA
The Council adopted on 1st December 2015 the "Conclusions on advancing Gender Equality in the European Research Area". It calls for cultural and institutional changes to address gender imbalances in research institutions and in decision making-bodies. Member States are invited to set up guiding targets for full professors and for decision-making bodies, including scientific and administrative boards, recruitment and promotion committees as well as evaluation panels. The Council also highlights the importance of a better integration of the gender dimension in research content.
» The ERA Stakeholder Platform
The Commission set up a Stakeholder Platform to offer a forum for discussion on the development of ERA policy. In this forum stakeholder organisations interact not only with the Commission but also amongst themselves. The forum supports the establishment of partnership activities and enables consensus building.
The stakeholders involved in the Platform are the European Association of Research and Technological Organisations (EARTO), the European University Association (EUA), the League of European Research Universities (LERU), Science Europe, the Conference of European Schools for Advanced Engineering Education and Research (CESAER), and EU-Life.
» The ERA-Net on gender: GENDER-NET
Gender-NET is the first European Research Area Network (ERA-NET) to be dedicated to the promotion of gender equality through structural change in research institutions, as well as to the integration of sex and gender analysis in research. GENDER-NET brings together a balanced partnership of 14 national programme owners from across Europe and North America – i.e. ministries, national research funding agencies and national organisations – that share a commitment to gender equality and expertise in gender and science issues.
» Networking among scientists
Scientists can contribute to change practices themselves. Networking among practitioners and professional associations, platforms of women scientists and other networks play a key role in this context. The EC funds two important initiatives which aim to support networking:
- The COST Action, GenderSTE, which organises awareness-raising events across Europe.
- GenPORT, an online community of practitioners, which is served by an internet portal in which organisations and individuals can participate and exchange knowledge and experience from across the world on gender equality and excellence in science, technology or innovation
» Gender Equality Plans in research organisations
Funding agencies and research organisations, including universities, are at the forefront of implementing institutional changes, in particular through Gender Equality Plans. The European Commission funds Gender Equality Plans through the Science with and for Society work programme.
To help Universities and Research Organisations to set-up, implement and evaluate Gender Equality Plans, Directorate-General for Research and Innovation in cooperation with the European Institute for Gender Equality has developed the GEAR Tool, Gender Equality in Academia and Research. Visit the GEAR Tool.
Gender Equality in Horizon 2020
Gender is a cross-cutting issue in Horizon 2020. It is enshrined in the core documents that established Horizon 2020, and has the following objectives:
- Gender balance in decision making:
The Commission has set a target of 40% of the under-represented sex in expert groups and evaluation panels. The Horizon 2020 Advisory groups have a target of 50% for the under-represented sex.
- Gender balance in research teams at all levels:
Applicants for funding are encouraged to promote gender balance at all levels of their teams. By signing the grant agreement, beneficiaries commit to promote equal opportunities between men and women in the implementation of their action. They also commit to aim, as far as possible, for gender balance at all levels of personnel assigned to the action, including at supervisory and managerial levels. Gender balance in teams can also be taken into account when ranking proposals with the same evaluation scores.
Integrating the gender dimension in the content of R&I
To integrate the gender dimension in research content means taking into account the biological characteristics and the evolving social/cultural features of both women and men.
The gender dimension is integrated into calls for proposals in many of the programmes of Horizon 2020. In the Horizon 2020 work programme 2016-2017, the gender dimension is explicitly mentioned in 108 of the 568 topics distributed in 13 work programme parts.
A full list of these topics is available on the Participant Portal under the "quick finder" link on gender. In addition, applicants may also use the search engine on that page, which lists all the topics available with an explicit reference to gender, women- and/or men-related issues.

The Helsinki Group on Gender in Research and Innovation
The Helsinki Group on Gender in Research and Innovation was established in 1999. It brings together representatives from Member States and Associated Countries to promote equality between women and men in Research and Innovation.
The Helsinki Group on Gender in R&I was established to reflect and advise the Commission on the development of initiatives within the different policies and frameworks related to science, research and innovation (e.g. the Innovation Union, the Europe 2020 Strategy, the European Research Area, the Framework Programmes, etc.).

Facts and figures
The "She Figures" publication is the main source of pan European, comparable statistics on the state of gender equality in research and innovation. It covers a wide range of themes, including the proportions of women and men among top level graduates, aca¬demic staff and research boards, working conditions for women and men researchers, the integration of the gender dimension in the content of peer reviewed scientific articles, and various indica¬tors measuring gender gaps in scientific and innovation outputs. Released every three years since 2003, the report constitutes a key evidence base for policies in this area. It is recommended reading for policy makers, researchers and anyone with a general interest in these issues.
All She Figures volumes, in addition to other relevant documents, are available through the e-Library.

A whole new kind of controlled circulation: rickshaw magazine tied down
Some enterprising publishers in Mumbai, India have created a monthly magazine called Meter Down that is aimed at affluent young professionals who can afford to travel by motorized rickshaws in the crowded streets in the city of 14 million people.
According to a story in The Guardian, the magazine was started by three recent graduates in February 2010 and is now carrried by 7,000 rickshaws in Mumbai and other western India cities such as Pune and Ahmedabad.
Drivers are lured into the scheme with a share of 35-40% of the profit from advertising sales. That works out at around 200-250 rupees (£2.30-£2.87) each, according to Mulchand Dedhia, 26, one of the founding trio. Mumbai auto drivers make 400-500 rupees working a normal shift, according to the Mumbai Autorickshawmen's Union.
To stop passengers taking the magazine with them, it is tied to a shelf in the vehicle.
One of the partners, Mulchand Dedhia, says that each three-wheeled rickshaw makes 90-95 trips in a 24-hour period which would represent a readership of 600,000. In addition to on-page advertising, the company sells ads on the back and the inside of the rickshaws, which are nicknamed tuk-tuks for the noise they make (they are powered by compressed natural gas engines). Rickshaws are cheap by comparison to western taxis -- a three-mile ride costs 68 rupees (about 10 times the equivalent second class train ticket) -- but too expensive for most Indians to use regularly.

LiLo Comes Face-To-Face With SamRo Look-A-Like On Project Runway Premiere
So I don't get in trouble for posting about this, gasp, 11 hours after the episode aired, SPOILERS AHEAD. Got that?
OK. So, last night was the premiere of "Project Runway" on Lifetime, which Jessica liveblogged. Personally, I was slightly underwhelmed. None of the designers stood out to me yet, except one, but not because of her design talents. Ari Fish is a straight-up Samantha Ronson doppelganger, which became somewhat awkward when it was revealed that Lindsay Lohan was the guest judge. Did Ari's resemblance to Lohan's on/off girlfriend help or hurt her? Find out, after the jump…Alas, Ari's physical similarity to the celebrity DJ didn't do much to distract the judges from her wackadoodle dress that she designed for the red carpet challenge, which one Twitterer described as, "a walking M.I.A. album cover." This perhaps illustrates the first noticeable difference between PR on Lifetime and PR on Bravo — previously, an avant-garde but unfocused designer usually would win out over someone playing it boring, safe, and, well, fugly. Do you think Ari deserved to go home? And what did you think of LiLo as guest judge?

Treehouse Masters season 5 episodes list:
Pete Nelson uproots an existing treehouse from the family-owned bed & breakfast Treehouse Point to build a custom-made treehouse as a housewarming gift for his daughter, Emily.
Pete gathers up the posse to build a Wild West-themed treehouse in North Bend, Washington; they build a horseshoe-shaped construct with a bedroom, county jail loft, and genuine copper ceiling set 15-feet high in a solitary Douglas Fir.
Pete finds inspiration in old tales to build a mesmerizing treehouse, with a curved turret that soars two stories high and a deck to take in the amazing sights, over the stems of a twisty silver maple on the shore of Lake Chelan.
Meeting up with South American treehouse impresario Ricardo Brunelli in the heart of Brazil; treehouse travels from the city of Sao Paulo to the farmlands of Parana.
Pete returns to two of his first builds to reconstruct, revamp, and revitalize a pair of treehouses in need of major makeovers. These fixes prove to be more than just a remodel job when Pete and his team give both treehouses a brand new life in the trees.
A summer camp for kids with cancer on Long Island gets a clubhouse with a crow's nest and a peekaboo roof that encourages interaction with nature.
Pete goes to Nebraska to build a tree house for a fun-loving family who enjoy music, writing and the occasional happy hour.
Pete and the crew join a group of young carpenters from Sawhorse Revolution, an organization that introduces carpentry to students with community service projects, to build a treehouse escape.
Inspired by South American treehouse maestro Richard Brunnelli, Pete builds a hexagonal live-in treehouse for a Treehouse Workshop graduate in coastal Oregon.

Jurlique makes the best smelling rose scent, it is natural, light, and pure! I have used Jurlique's Rosewater Mist for years and now this intense one is even better. I tend to use a little less spray of this intense one since it seems to be more concentrated and moisturizing. I use it all day long since I keep it on my desk. This was my first time trying the Rosewater Intense spray and I really enjoy it. I will buy it again.

Gibraltar tries to put scandal aside
New Chairman and CEO Adolfo Henriques is trying to move Gibraltar Private Bank & Trust past the Scott Rothstein scandal in the aftermath of CEO and Chairman Steven Hayworth's departure from the bank he founded.
While Hayworth's exit is officially a resignation, two sources with knowledge of the situation said federal regulators demanded Hayworth's removal.
Far from a typical community bank, Coral Gables-based Gibraltar counts many of South Florida's business elite as clients and investors. When they pooled their money in September 2009 to buy the bank back from Boston Private Financial Holdings, investors included MBF Healthcare Partners Chairman Mike B. Fernandez, former Carnival Corp. President Bob Dickinson, Miami Beach developer Russell Galbut, Cisneros Corp. CEO Eduardo Cisneros, and attorney Stuart Grossman.
Hayworth was a charismatic leader who ran in top social circles and made clients feel confident, said Jim Angleton, president of Miami Lakes-based prepaid debit card firm Aegis FinServ Corp. and the chairman of Neighborhood Lending Partners, which helps banks invest in underserved communities.
"They are good at damage control," Angleton said of Gibraltar. "They are very communicative with their clients."
Gibraltar has been on the defensive for several years, as the Rothstein Ponzi scheme was revealed in October 2009. It was known at the time that Rothstein was a major client at Gibraltar, as well as TD Bank, and he bought $5 million worth of Gibraltar shares. But, Rothstein's testimony during December depositions cast a harsh light on several Gibraltar executives.
Rothstein testified that Hayworth promised that his accounts would not be investigated for suspicious activity if he invested in the bank. If there were more than 400 overdrafts to his Gibraltar account, Rothstein said he wouldn't be surprised. Rothstein testified that Hayworth and former Gibraltar VP John Harris were "in his pocket."
Harris took the Fifth Amendment against self-incrimination in civil depositions. Hayworth has been deposed in Rothstein-related lawsuits, but his testimony is sealed.
"We are a victim of Scott Rothstein's lies and deception," Henriques said.
Partially due to the Rothstein litigation, the bank's performance has fallen below the rosy expectations that high-powered investors had when they purchased the bank. Gibraltar has reached two settlements in civil lawsuits involving Rothstein, although both are awaiting final court approval. The bank agreed to pay the bankruptcy estate of Rothstein's shuttered law firm $10 million, in addition to $10 million from its insurance carrier, and $10 million in the lawsuit brought by the Razorback group of investors in the Ponzi scheme.
Henriques said the bank is awaiting a "notice of non-objection" to the settlements from regulators.
Losses mount
Gibraltar lost $9.5 million in 2010 and $12.6 million in 2011. The $1.63 billion-asset bank lost $141,000 in the first quarter of 2012 as its noncurrent loan ratio grew to 8.88 percent.
It is very rare for a private wealth management bank to struggle financially, even during the recession, Miami-based bank analyst and economist Kenneth H. Thomas said. Yet, Henriques is one of the best bank executives in South Florida and he is well equipped to lead it out of trouble, Thomas said.
"I think they are in very strong hands here. Adolfo is one of the premier bankers in South Florida," Thomas said. "Depositors and regulators should have great comfort that he is there."
Henriques was formerly the CEO of Florida East Coast Railway, the head of the south region for Regions Bank, vice chairman of the Related Group and the South Florida chairman for NationsBank, which later became part of Bank of America.
"I've been here for 15 months and really running the operations of the bank," Henriques said. "I have all of the executive team reporting directly to me."
Deposits shrink after Rothstein case
There is clearly a niche market for a local bank that handles only wealthy clients, Thomas added. He noted that Gibraltar did not have a significant loss of deposits in the first quarter, after the Rothstein testimony surfaced.
Yet, Gibraltar has stiff competition from banks that have greater capital resources. Chicago-based Northern Trust Corp. specializes in private banking and has a large presence in Miami. JPMorgan Chase Bank, BankUnited, City National Bank of Florida, Sabadell United Bank and TotalBank have also put greater emphasis on private banking in South Florida.
Unlike those banks, Gibraltar is operating under a federal cease and desist order, issued in 2010, which focused on the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering laws. The Office of Thrift Supervision, issued the order, but was replaced by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Thomas said the OTS was considered a more permissible regulator, while the OCC has been more aggressive with thrifts.
One danger for Gibraltar is that the OCC would amend its enforcement action to require the bank to meet higher capital levels, as it has done during most enforcement actions in recent years. Gibraltar's total risk-based capital ratio of 13.6 percent on March 31 was above the 10 percent ratio normally required of "well capitalized" banks, but the OCC has told many money-losing banks that this ratio should exceed 14 percent.
"I think the OCC will raise the [capital] bar on them because they want to make sure that, moving forward, we learned a lesson," Angleton said. "Gibraltar would have to deleverage its balance sheet, sell a branch or get out of risky areas."
Henriques would not discuss his recent conversations with regulators, but he said the bank was making great progress in compliance, and it expects the OCC to conduct a regular examination later this year.

The Prasar Bharti board has rejected Nine Broadcasting's plea for a five-year extension for its 7-9 pm prime time band on DD-Metro. Instead, Doordarshan has made a counter offer for an 18-month extension, which has not been accepted so far by the Kerry Packer-HFCL broadcasting company.
Meanwhile, Nine Broadcasting has decided that its existing one-year contract for the three hour prime time band would only begin from the date DD installed the agreed number of transmitters to achieve the optimum reach for the channel.Highly placed Doordarshan sources said Nine Broadcasting had raised a dispute that DD had not honoured a contractual agreement to increase the number of transmitters for the DD-Metro channel. There has been a one-month default in payment by Nine Broadcasting to DD amounting to around Rs 10 crore.
Nine Broadcasting's CEO Ms Ravina Raj Kohli blamed DD for not meeting its commitment to increase the number of transmitters from 65 to 125 as well as ensure 100 per cent cable connectivity for the channel. The company has run up 25 to 30 per cent higher-than-estimated losses because of lack of commitment by DD to improve DD-Metro.
On DD's counter offer for an 18-month extension (which Nine says is verbal and not formal), Nine Broadcasting says it is not interested in a short-term deal and is insisting on a three to five year extension at the very least. It has also proposed a fixed fee-cum-revenue sharing deal as a carrot.
Nine Broadcasting currently has three hours of airtime on DD Metro from 7.00 pm to 10.00 pm. Its annual contract for the two time slots is scheduled to expire on September 21 and October 16, respectively.
Nine Broadcasting is paying a hefty Rs 121 crore for three hours of air time on DD Metro in what industry circles consider a heavily overpriced deal.
Nine's bid for the late night 10 pm to 00.30 am slot was earlier turned down in December-end by Prasar Bharti on the plea that no single private programmer should develop a monopoly over a Doordarshan channel.
Other broadcasting companies like STAR and Sony Entertainment Television have evinced keen interest in bidding for DD Metro's prime time slot.
Meanwhile, Nine Broadcasting claims its better programming quality has resulted in the ``return of major brands like Colgate, Dabur, Tamarind (which is shown only on Star, other than DD), Titan and Home Trade to DD Metro.
The television viewer rating too has increased as seen from the rise from 15.4 per cent (All TV homes) when Nine took over DD-Metro's prime time band to 24.1 in week 30, according to TAM Media Research. The viewership in cable and satellite homes has also seen a slight increase from 1.4 in week one to 3.1 in week 30.

The rest of Apache has it switched on. But it is odd how it works. JXTemplateGenerator will only see TemplateGenerator as the link without the JX. It is going to be tough just using this, as even when we've done the conversion people are going to be inadvertently adding CamelCase to their new Wiki pages. I guess I can give my regexp skills another test to see if I can come up with a CamelCase detector, but I'm a little reluctant. Is it really important? Upayavira, who's trying to avoid a bit more work!

Just a few question ive been trying to get awnsered, but with no luck.
1. where do i repair, i've had the same weapons (weathered hora) since i started and now im lvl 10 :/, they are at 10% condition. I've looked quickly through the item database for "bone chips" and the only places they are found are in other areas which i have no idea how to get to, repairing shouldnt be this hard :/
2. which brings me to my second question, where do i get new weapons / clothing? i have no clue how to synthesize, i somehow managed to make hampen yarn from moko grass but other then then that im clueless. If synthesis is so important why is it so complicated, i meen its my first time playing any FF games online and that part has me completely confused :S.
3. Is there a proper tutorial for FFXIV, i meen i loved the introduction video when you arrived in the world, the story looked great and captivating, but once i entered Gridania, I was completely lost, i had no clue where to go or what to do, and there wasnt anything to guide me really, except the scenario quest(more or less) which was kinda short and didnt show me, that much about the little bits and pieces of the game. For example, i had no idea how to get leves(quests) i ended up randomly clicking on npcs and finding out that they exited.
Anyways thank you for any replies.

Roseanne Barr sued by George Zimmerman's parents
Funnywoman Roseanne Barr is facing a lawsuit from the parents of controversial shooter George Zimmerman over allegations she pushed them into hiding by tweeting the family's address. Robert Zimmerman, Sr. and his wife, Gladys, claim in a lawsuit filed in Florida on Monday (10Mar14) that they feared they would become the targets of "vigilante justice" after Barr shared details of their Lake Mary property in March, 2012.
The tweets came at a time of high tension between the African-American community and Florida police, who had not yet arrested Zimmerman for the fatal shooting of black teenager Trayvon Martin.
The Zimmermans accuse the star of trying to "incite a lynch mob to descend" on their home and are seeking unspecified damages.
George Zimmerman was arrested in relation to Martin's death in April, 2012 but was acquitted of second-degree murder and manslaughter last year (13) after a jury ruled he had acted in self-defence.

Tethys Petroleum Limited is pleased to announce that AKK17, the first shallow gas exploration well of its 2014 programme has been successful. Analysis of data from the well indicates it to be similar to the AKK15 well which tested gas at a stable rate of approximately 7 million cubic feet (195,000 cubic metres or 1,167 barrels oil equivalent) per day, and the AKK17 appears likely to test at a comparable rate.
The AKK17 well, drilled to a depth of 653 metres (2,142 feet) some 2.2 kilometres (1.4 miles) NE of the AKK15 well, encountered a 4 metre (13.1 feet) interval of gas bearing Tasaran sand with an average porosity of 31%. This compares to the AKK15 well which also encountered a 4 metre (13.1 feet) gas-bearing interval of similar quality, and which will be tied in as part of this years programme. The AKK17 well will be flowed as part of a testing programme to be carried out after further wells have been drilled. The drilling rig has now been mobilised to the second shallow gas exploration well location, AKK18, and drilling should commence within the next week.

Sized at 39mm and using the same AP caliber 2120 that made the original the icon that it is, the new Jumbo will feature a few design traits reminiscent of the original. You will, most noticeably, see that the "AP" logo has been moved from the 12 o'clock position back down to 6 o'clock, and the tapisserie is also smaller, just like it was on the original.

Over the years Rahul Dravids batting order has been constantly shuffled according to the convenience of the Indian management. When a regular opener Connor Williams was sent to South Africa as a replacement for Sadagopan Ramesh why is it he was not taken into the side and instead Dravid was sent opening. [an error occurred while processing this directive]In fact, being a regular opener in the One-dayers it would have been better if Ganguly himself opened the innings. Or may be Sachin also could have gone in as an opener as he also happens to be an experienced One-day opener.Why is it that Dravid is always made a scapegoat whether it is One-dayers or Tests? Dravid has always been a dependable bat in both forms of the game. He may not be flamboyant as Sachin or Ganguly. But he has definitely been a wall for the India batting order, which tends to collapse quite regularly. India needs a batsman who would play a role of anchor and Dravid has been playing that role quite well just like Marvan Attapattu of Sri Lanka. Though Dravid tends to make a slow start he picks up his scoring rate at the end of his innings. Why disturb a player's batting order when he is quite successful at that order and upset his rhythm and confidence. Its time for the Indian management to start thinking positively and give a chance to the youngsters and let the senior players play in their regular order. Anyway a batsman takes some time to adjust to a new batting order. Then why not give the same chance to a newcomer and allow him to settle down in the international scene instead of shuffling the batting order. Let the youngsters face the tough situations and learn from them. They should groom the youngsters for the job instead of shuffling the regular batting order. It really is necessary when one expects a team to perform well.

Hungarian PM calls for closure of borders after Christians killed in Berlin at Christmas
The Christmas attack which killed Christians in Berlin last week has prompted Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban to call for the closure of borders to immigrants and to demand action from the European Union.
Orban's statement comes after 12 people were killed and 48 were injured in Berlin in the run-up to Christmas last week. He now wants illegal migrants to be deported from Europe and to stop the influx of new migrants as Christians are being killed at Christmas. For the Hungarian leader, the streets of Europe will never be the same after these deaths and that the free movement of people must come to an end, the Express relays.
"It is unprecedented that in the heart of Europe, Christians were murdered at Christmas. It's clear that, in the case of migration, nothing can remain the way it was before," Orban told Hungarian Veszprem online news site. "Brussels needs to change, migrants who entered Europe illegally must be deported, the borders need to be protected and the inflow of migrants has to be eliminated."
On Oct 2, Hungarians held a referendum which revealed that 98 percent of the people want migration to be curbed. However, the voter turnout was only 44 percent, rendering the referendum not legally binding.
Still, Orban continues to be outspoken regarding the necessity of border defense. He said more and more people in the E.U. are now starting to accept the idea of building refugee camps outside the E.U., Hungary Today reports.
Aside from that, Orban said Hungary will not budge on its position on the migration quota system. According to him, his people do not want German chancellor Angela Merkel's plan of letting a crowd of economic migrants enter Europe. For him, this move would only later lead to Europe imposing the burden of accepting migrants on other states.

When your Saturn LS left the factory, it was destined for a driver who prioritizes trustworthy transportation in their automobile. Auto enthusiasts know that a known brand is built into each Saturn, and understand that only the best replacement LS parts will suffice when your car or truck needs fixing.
Without the properly working ignition timing system developed for the internal combustion engine, we would need an alternative like the turbine engines we find in jets. One long-lasting component in your engine that will not last forever is your ignition coil. Whether you have mechanically timed ignition that uses a distributor or electronic ignition that uses the engine control module, your Saturn LS could have one or many ignition coils. But no matter how many ignition coils you have, they have a finite number of sparks. If just one Saturn LS ignition coil fails, then you will get fewer (if any) detonations and your engine will be robbed of power and efficiency.

Iran! What a cool place!
Hey everyone! My name is Iran. Today, I will be telling you all about myself( by the way, for some parts I am going to talk in first person for some parts of this presentation, but I will try my best to talk in third person, as if I am not Iran....). Lets see...my name is Iran, and the capital of my country is a beautiful city named Tehran. I have a pretty cool flag, that has a lot of meaning to it. Up above this article, you can view a picture of it. Where was I, oh yeah, the flag! So, as you can see, the flag has three equal bands of red, white, and green that are horizontal. The national emblem is in the center of the flag, and represents the word Allah, the god that they believe in. ALLAH AKBAR, which means "God is great" is repeated twenty- two times in white Arabic script, along the bottom of the flag. Green represents the color of Islam, and growth, white symbolizes honesty, and peace, and red stands for bravery, and martyrdom.
The geography of Iran!
My country, Iran, lives on the continent of Asia. Iran has several bordering countries. Iraq, and Turkey in the west, Armenia, Azerbaijan, the Caspian Sea, and Turkmenistan in the north, Afghanistan, and Pakistan in the east; and the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman in the south. Here in Iran, we have many major landforms. Some of them include, the Zagros Mountains, Karun river, Damavand Mountain, and the Elburz Mountains. Here in Iran, we also have major landmarks. Some of our major landmarks include, Azadi Tower, Chehel Sotoun, Imam Reza Shrine, Milad Tower, and Persepolis. There are also, several major bodies of water, in Iran. These major bodies of water include, Caspian Sea, Persian Sea, the Gulf of Oman, and the Arabian Sea. With all of this being said, there are many ways that the geography of Iran can affect the citizens of Iran's lives, through human environment interaction. Human environment interaction is the way the Earth appears, or how we modify, or change it. So, the Iran citizens depend on the environment for water and oxygen. Even though, some parts of Iran are pretty dry, they still somewhat rely on the rain for water. This is an environmental issue that the Iranians have created, especially in the urban areas, is the exhaust from the cars, trucks, and buses that they use. This creates poor air quality for them. Tehran, which is my country's capital city, is one of the most polluted cities in the world, because of all the transportation. As a matter of fact, the air quality is so bad, that some Iranians are getting respiratory related illness. Periodic droughts, floods, dust storms, and sand storms are some of the environmental issues the Iranians have adapted to.
The Iranian Government!
The Iranians have a Theocratic government. This means that their government is connected with their religious beliefs. The religious leader of their government is Ali Khamenei. In the Iranian government system, the Supreme Leader is elected and supervised by the democratically elected Assembly of Experts. In Iran, all of the citizens, whatever ethnic group or tribe to which they belong, enjoy equal rights; language race, or color, do not make a difference in what privileges people have, or receive. All citizens of the country, both genders, man and woman, equally enjoy the protection of the law and enjoy all human, political, economic, social, and cultural rights, and freedoms, in conformity with Islamic criteria. The government must ensure the rights of women in all respects, in conformity with Islamic criteria, and accomplish the following goals: create a favorable environment for the flourish of woman's personality and the restoration of her rights, both the material and intellectual part; the protection of mothers, particularly during pregnancy and child birth, and the protection of children without parents or guardians; establishing competent courts to protect and preserve the family; the provision of special insurance for widows, and aged women and women without support; the awarding of guardianship of children to worthy mothers, in order to protect the interests of the children, in the absence of a legal guardian.
The Economy of Iran!
My country, the country of Iran, is a relatively rich nation, with their vast oil exports being the second largest crude oil exporter, after Saudi Arabia, they don't always export oil though. Iran also exports petroleum, petrochemicals, carpets, food processing, motor, Agriculture (wheat, caviar, fruits, etc), crude steel, and more. Iran's GDP is also one of the highest. I, Iran have a GDP of 1.016 trillion. In Iran, we use Iranian Rial as our currency. Their main import or export of Iran is oil, or petroleum, at 80%. A list of all of Iran's exports are listed here: chemical and petrochemical products, fruits and nuts, and carpets are all of Iran's exports. A list of all of Iran's imports are listed here: industrial supplies, capital goods, foodstuffs and other consumer goods, and technical services, are all of Iran's imports. Iran's life expectancy is for the average citizen to live to be, 73.76 years, as of 2012. 77% total of Iran's population can read and/or write. 84% of males can read and/or write, and 70% of females can read and/or write. The birth rate for Iran is 1.8, or to be exact, 1.92 births per couple. Listed below are the drinking water sources for improved, and unimproved:
Improved Drinking Water Source
97.7% of population: urban
91.7% of population: rural
95.9% of population: total
Unimproved Drinking Water Source
2.3% of population: urban
8.3% of population: rural
4.1% of population: total
Improved Drinking Water Sources can use any of the following sources: piped water into dwelling, yard, or plot; public tap or standpipe; tubewell or borehole; protected dug well; protected spring; or rainwater collection. Unimproved Drinking Water Sources can use any of the following sources: unprotected dug well; unprotected spring; cart with small tank or drum; tanker truck; surface water, which includes rivers, dams, lakes, ponds, streams, canals or irrigation channels; or bottled water.
The Iranian Culture!
In Iran, two examples of common items of clothing that they wear are, a "roo-sari", and "roo-poosh". A "roo-sari" is a traditional Iranian head scarf. A "roo-poosh" is a traditional coat that they wear in Iran. The religious leanings of the country influence the clothing that people wear greatly. Since the main religion of Iran is Islam, their clothing reflects the simplicity and modesty of Islam. In Iran, they mainly speak Persian. Top artists in my beautiful country of Iran are: Mohsen Namjoo, Lana Del Ray, and Radiohead(Top 3) Iranian music traditionally tells a message, and the music generally reflects the artist's innermost feelings, sort of like how pop artists in the U.S. express their feelings about love into their songs. Iranian music is deeply intertwined with the Iranian age-old history and culture, it expresses the loves, joys, sorrows, efforts and struggles, and the many victories and defeats the people of Iran have experienced over time. Some top songs in Iran are: Khalegh, An Ke Delam Ra, Safar, Azize Rafte, and Arbaabe Vafaa, are the top 5 songs in Iran. Listed below are all of the Iranian holidays.
In Iran, the main religion is Islam. Islam's favorite creed is "There is no God but Allah," which the faithful Muslim recite daily. The religion Islam is a monotheistic religion, which means that they only believe in one god, or in the oneness of God. Another belief that the Muslims have, is that angels are the messengers of Allah. That Islamic concept differs little from the biblical view. They also believe, that Quran is God's last word to the world. This says, that both the Old and New Testaments are likewise divinely inspired, but have been altered by Christians and Jews. If they conflict in any place, they believe that the Bible is wrong, and that the Quran is right, and has the final authority. Chelo- Kebab is a popular Iranian dish. It contains all of the following ingredients:
1 pound of ground lamb
1 teaspoon of cumin
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
1 large chopped onion
In Iran, for fun, people go to the movies, listen to music(it doesn't matter what kind of music they listen to), play sports, go karting and paintball are also very popular in Iran. Some popular games in Iran are: Chogan(this is pretty much like polo), Takhteh Nard, and Shatranj are some games that are popular, and are played often in Iran.
The Climate of Iran
Iran has a hot, dry climate that is characterized by hot, dry summers, and cold, very short winters. This climate occurs because of Iran's location between the subtropical aridity of the Arabian Desert areas and the subtropical humidity of the eastern Mediterranean area. The coldest month is January, with a high of 10 degrees Celsius, and a low of 5 degrees Celsius. How cold! The hottest month of the year is August, with a low of 20 degrees Celsius, and a high of at least 30 degrees Celsius. In most areas of Iran, there is high humidity on the southern coastal areas of the Persian Gulf, with summers that are warm to hot with virtually continuous sunshine. There is a danger of heat exhaustion, since temperatures can reach easily 40°C or more, especially along the Persian Gulf and Oman Sea. June through August are often rainless, while about 70 percent of rainfall falls between November and March. Rainfall is varied from season to season, and from year to year. The average yearly rainfall for my country was last measured at 228 mm, in 2011. In Iran, over the course of a year, the temperature varies typically from 33 degrees Fahrenheit, to 98 degrees Fahrenheit, and rarely ever gets over 103 degrees Fahrenheit, or rarely gets under 26 degrees Fahrenheit. The climate affects the country of Iran because, since Iran is like a desert, and has a hot, dry, humid climate, Iran undergoes droughts, and has a shortage, or low supply of water, causing them to have to get it from other countries. The climate also affects them, because they have irregular and uncoordinated water exploitment. They also don't have much availability of resources, because, since they live in a desert- like environment, not many resources can grow, or be exploited/found, except for oil. This limits their trading ability to other countries, since pretty much all they can trade is oil.
History of Iran
One event that contributed to Iran's current condition, is when the Arab invasion ended the Sassanid dynasty, and started Islamic rule. This event has contributed to Iran's current state because; now the main/official religion of Iran is Islam. Another event that has contributed to Iran's current condition, is when the constitution was introduced, which limited the absolutist powers of rulers. This event has contributed to Iran's current state because; now, the citizens have more power than they used to, and now the rulers no longer have all the power.

Rethink how you eat your veggies
We're always being told to eat our greens, pack our diet full of fruit and vegetables and get much-needed nutrients into our bodies. But while many of us think that pinging a steam fresh bag of veg in the microwave or popping a few florets of broccoli in a pan to go with our dinner will do the job, it turns out that a lot of our storing, preparation and cooking methods of vegetables are actually diminishing their nutritional value. In her new book Eating on the Wild Side: The Missing Link to Optimum Health, journalist Jo Robinson has shared some top tips on how to make sure you are getting the most out of the veggies you eat.
Cook tomatoes for longer
The longer you cook tomatoes for, the more nutritious they become because the heat changes the lycopene within them into a form our bodies can process a lot easier. This means that canned tomatoes have more nutritional benefits than the fresh variety thanks to the cooking and canning process.
Boiling vegetables
Most of us will have heard before that boiling vegetables like spinach is wrong because water soluble vitamins like vitamin C seep out during the process. However Jo reveals that antioxidant levels also lower when boiled. Instead, try steaming, sautéing or roasting your veg to keep it nutritious.
Don't cook chopped garlic straightaway
If you put chopped or minced garlic in a hot pan as soon as you've prepared it, you stand little chance of absorbing any allicin, the beneficial compound that makes garlic such a fundamental part of a healthy diet. This is because it hasn't had chance to activate, so leave it for ten minutes after preparing before putting it on the heat as this will give the enzyme a chance to do its thing.
Cutting carrots before cooking
We're all guilty of this mistake at some point: cutting carrots before cooking them. While it seems like the logical thing to do, cooking them whole, then chopping them into your desired shape helps keep more nutrients in the little orange numbers. Jo adds that cooked carrots are better for you than in their raw form, as it helps break down the cell walls, which means the nutrients are easier to get to.

The 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata has a nimble feel and quick reflexes like a true sportscar should, and power has hit new heights, according to reviews researched by TheCarConnection.com and the firsthand experience of editors.
Almost all reviews about the performance of the MX-5 Miata are glowing--Mazda has created a vehicle that "changes direction like a go-kart, communicates clearly to the driver and accelerates with an inspiring inline-4 growl," raves Edmunds. The New York Times says, "On paper it seems unremarkable, but a mere spec sheet won't divulge the essence of this car. Its 166-horsepower engine doesn't make face-melting power, but it seems to have no flywheel whatsoever, and a blip of the throttle results in an instant, melodic zing that begs you to match revs on your next downshift."
Both the 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata roadster and hardtop convertible are powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder with 166 hp (manual-equipped versions make 170 hp). Car and Driver observes of the hardtop convertible, "at 2560 pounds, it was 135 pounds heavier than our last MX-5 softtop and did the 60-mph dash 0.3 second slower (7.0 seconds)."
The 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata comes with either a five- or six-speed manual, depending on trim levels. A six-speed automatic is an option. "The six-speed manual has especially short throws," Cars.com points out, while the six-speed automatic "includes steering-wheel-mounted shift paddles for manual operation." The manual shifter is a delight, reports the New York Times. "The shifter feels as though a team of engineers spent months working on its action, and a flick of the wrist rewards you with the rare feeling of metal engaging metal, a precision machine at work," they wax.
Fuel economy in the 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata ranges from 22/27 mpg to 20/27 mpg.
Impressive acceleration is matched with deft use of power via the 2008 Mazda MX-5 Miata's rear-drive chassis. Kelley Blue Book says the weight balance "allows the car to perform remarkably nimble maneuvers that would be more difficult if the car had more of its weight biased to either end." Cars.com also notes that "the roadster has a 50/50 weight distribution (front/rear) and precise rack-and-pinion steering for legendary handling and predictability. The Miata is one of the most fun-to-drive cars around, despite its relatively modest engine power."
Mazda Miatas have long been known to accelerate and handle well, but the 17-inch tires are an option than can sully its usually smooth ride. ConsumerGuide says the "ride is choppy and borderline harsh with the less-compliant combination of the Suspension Package and 17-inch tires."
