This guideline includes recommendations on:
- immunisation programmes
- information systems for recording immunisation status
- training for staff involved in immunisation services
- contribution of nurseries, schools and further education colleges
- targeting groups at risk of not being fully immunised
- hepatitis B immunisation for infants
Who is it for?
- Healthcare professionals
- Commissioners and providers
- People who work in children's services and local authorities
- People who work in schools, colleges and workplaces
- People who work in the private, voluntary and community sectors
- Parents, carers and young people
Is this guideline up to date?
No update required. Published guidance still current.
Next review: 2017
Guideline development process
How we develop NICE guidelines
This guideline was previously called reducing difference in the uptake of immunisations.
Website and hyperlink changes - August 2010
The website www.immunisations.nhs.uk which is referred to in many documents on these pages has been closed. Resources for professionals are now available from new Department of Health pages and resources for parents, carers and patients are available on the NHS Choices website.
It has not been possible to update all hyperlinks in all NICE documents to reflect these changes.
Your responsibility
The recommendations in this guideline represent the view of NICE, arrived at after careful consideration of the evidence available. When exercising their judgement, professionals are expected to take this guideline fully into account, alongside the individual needs, preferences and values of their patients or service users. The application of the recommendations in this guideline is not mandatory and the guideline does not override the responsibility of healthcare professionals to make decisions appropriate to the circumstances of the individual patient, in consultation with the patient and/or their carer or guardian.
Local commissioners and/or providers have a responsibility to enable the guideline to be applied when individual health professionals and their patients or service users wish to use it. They should do so in the context of local and national priorities for funding and developing services, and in light of their duties to have due regard to the need to eliminate unlawful discrimination, to advance equality of opportunity and to reduce health inequalities. Nothing in this guideline should be interpreted in a way that would be inconsistent with compliance with those duties.
Commissioners and providers have a responsibility to promote an environmentally sustainable health and care system and should assess and reduce the environmental impact of implementing NICE recommendations wherever possible.

Falconia is a fortified city ruled by Griffith, and capital of his new empire, born out of Emperor Ganishka's Apostle body of shiva and of where Wyndham used to stand.
While looking at it for the first time, Foss hinted that Falconia may be the "resurrection" of the ancient Wyndham, Emperor Gaiseric's ancient capital and motherland of all nations, now suited to Griffith's wish of becoming king.
All that there is to know thus far is that it is reminiscent of Greek and Roman architecture with some hoplite and griffin-like statues at the main gate. The city also houses a domed arena in which Apostles fight against other creatures as a means of control. The Pope described it as "the capital of the new world" and the beginning of Griffith's rule.

We've been dating for a month now and have only been on 2 dates. As far as I know, he really likes me. I really like him too but I know that you're going to say "it will happen at the right time" but how can I speed that process up?
Most Helpful Guy
Could this be because he's never kissed a girl? If so, he might be afraid he'll make a fool of himself since he doesn't know how. If he has kissed a girl, maybe he was told he was a bad kisser and is afraid to try again.
You may have to initiate this one, Madsi. When you guys are alone, you can start with some gentle touches to his shoulder or forearm to make him feel more comfortable. Then move in more slowly for some light kisses. Do me the favor and don't go for French kissing off the bat (unless he does) since that's usually for people who already feel comfortable with regular kissing.00|00|0

Since blacks and latinos are portrayed as thugs, Asians as non-sexual, Muslims as terrorists, and indians as... creepy nerds. Many girls (asian, Indian, Latina) are into White guys. 80 year old White men date hot 18 year old Filipinas in the Phillipines and brazil. Many White guys are with Asian women. I never see an indian or black or Asian get all this luck.
Most Helpful Girl
So I dated with a Mexican and some Asians, and now with a White guy, and literally he is the most committed relationship that I ever had before. I wouldn't want to generalize all races since every race has its good people and it's bad. As in my own experiences, I don't feel like Latinos are like thugs but, as an Asian, I don't feel like I can blend into their culture well, with whole lot different society idea, even as small as eating habit (as I don't eat veggies at all). For Asians that I have been dated with, they gave me a feeling that they are less affectionate and too family oriented, like always their mothers first, listen to her no matter what, it's a good thing, but sometimes if it's getting too much, I would feel like I'm neglected. But I have ever met some fantastic Asian guys as well... Being with a White boyfriend now, I will say he understands women better (probably because he grew up with 4 sisters too), and one biggest different than any other races I dated before is, he always always put my feeling as his first priority. And he never stop showing affection, even in front of his parents, we still hug and cuddle on the couch; when in public we hold hands and kiss. While at least Asian guys wouldn't do that. And again, I can't speak for all races, and I believe different people have their own preferences too. :)10|10|1
Most Helpful Guy
Hypothetically, yes.
See, women want to hear how precious, beautiful and special they are. They want to be hit on, flirted with, complemented and even cat-called sometimes. But only black and brown guys do that. All the time.
Women are emotional. Flirting with them enough, worshiping them, will make them like you and date you, even if you're ugly, broke and dumb as a rock.
White men on the other hand, albeit on average the most physical attractive, are the least assertive, the least confident and the least flirty. Women don't like that one bit. Most White men are all stare and no talk.
Now, imagine White guys with the assertiveness, confidence and flirtiness of black guys.
So, yes, hypothetically White men have it the easiest. But they make it hard for themselves by being the least outgoing and least extroverted guys around.
But me, personally, I always go out of my way and complement good-looking girls.00|00|0

Conform or resist? Immigrant females and consumer empowerment
- Authors
- Publication Date
- Source
- Legacy
This research explores how purchasing choices are renegotiated by immigrant women as they transition in their cultural roles from a wife within a patriarchal consanguine family to a nuclear family based on equality. In particular, by focusing on the immigrant wife we will illustrate how various acts of consumption offer these women not only a means to resist their husband's patriarchy but also assert their power within family purchases.

…with a little "BUT".
We got pretty much everything done except for permissions. So we can't open for the public just yet. We will however launch the "Open" Beta in a "Closed" fashion for staff and donators only and then open the gates for everyone as soon as we got the permissions done (which will take about a day of work).
You will find the server under the following ip on Minecraft version 1.7.2 – 1.7.5: us1.vaast.org
Short and crisp the changelogs from closed beta and the newest changes:
04/19/2014 (Open Beta Launch)
- Fixed mobs spawning in fully lit areas of a base (please note that zombies spawning in light while clearing builds from mobs is intended, however they shouldn't spawn very close to a player).
- Decreased number of Atomic Creepers.
- Decreased number of Invisible Spiders.
- Decreased number of Baby Zombies.
- Mobs spawn in slower cycles now, means the mob limit per player is reached slower now.
- Rewritten how damage & health buffs on mobs work. Instead of a plain addition to the mob, it's now handled through mob gear(where possible) As example: Where before some zombies had a damage multiplier they now have a sword instead.
- Made mob difficulty more progressive. This should help with respawning and dying over and over again until one is lucky enough to gear up quickly. However this also means that difficulty rises above the already known in certain situations.
- Baby zombies do less damage.
- New special mob: Draugr. A skeleton with a knockback axe.
- New special mob: Fallen Hero. A fully diamond geared zombie with the head of a staffmember (Very rare).
- Special mob Bloater removed as he isn't working as intended.
- Mobs don't spawn in packs anymore.
- Mobs that spawned during daytime now hit harder and die slower to compensate the "easy-mode" of daytime clearing compared to nighttime a little bit.
– Fixed mobs beeing able to spawn on slab and & stair blocks where they shouldn't.
- Decreased the chance to get infected by zombie hits.
- Decreased the chance to get infected from eating raw meat.
- Decreased the chance to get infected from eating zombie flesh.
- After some minecraft update the hunger saturation of a player upon respawn is very low. As a countermeasure every player respawns with one piece of meat now.
- Introduced massive farming nerfs. Crops & animals in general give less food now and grow slower. Farm effectiveness is affected by the location you farm in.
- Antibiotics & Appetite Suppressant are not craftable anymore. Milk is still farmable though.
- All special items(legendary,rare,narcotics,uncommon) work as described in the item info now.
- Increased the amount of coal in loot chests.
- Increased the amount of torches in loot chests.
- Increased the amount of iron ingots in loot chests.
- Slightly decreased the chance for a legendary(orange) item in loot chests.
- Slightly decreased the chance for a rare(purple) item in loot chests.
- Slightly decreased the chance for a uncommon(blue) item in loot chests.
- Slightly increased the chance for a narcotics(green) item in loot chests.
- Slightly increased the chance for a lore(teal) item in loot chests.
- Other minor adjustments such as possible stacksizes for certain items in loot chests.
World & Generator:
- Fixed world border.
- Countless adjustments to building placement were made. Generator does a really good job on picking which build to place where now.
- Building decay slightly changed. Now has chances to spawn grass patches with trees or flowers.
- Even more builds were added.
- Fixed ranged chat & cellphones
- Fixed Bed setting errors
- Tuned a lot of antiCheat checks (players mostly notice it through rubberbanding or not beeing able to hit something or other weird glitches.)
- Disabled proximity block hider from Orebfuscator as it is unreliable for the time beeing and causes to many glitches.
- Players, zombies, spiders, endermen, creeper & all animals spill blood now when hit by a sword, axe or pickaxe.
- Fixed a bug where players couldn't break blocks while combat tagged.
- Fixed all issues with deathmessages.
- Deathmessages caused by PvP now include the name of the weapon that was used in the kill.
- Plugin for checking the ping was taken out since minecraft isn't able to ever show the correct ping to a server.
- Plugin that breaks all leaves of a tree when all log blocks are gone was taken out since it has false dropchances for leaves and is outdated.
- Firespread enabled for the time beeing. We want to see if disabling it is really neccessary.
Febuary 2014 (closed beta launch):
- Map size will be 4000×4000 blocks.
- Generator now does cityplaning instead of randomly placing buildings everywhere. (industrial, residential, highrise, etc. zones are a thing now.)
- 200+ new schematics from our badass architect team. Massive variety, skyscrapers down to city parks and everything in-between. Huge amount of unique interiors to explore. (And we don't plan to stop building yet.)
- Nether and End worlds are disabled for closed beta because they aren't done yet.
- Improved sewers below the streets.
- Basic subway system below highways.
- About 80% of wooden doors in buildings are initially open now. A lot less door banging.
- Massively improved building decay.
- Due to the nature and state of the new Generator, there will be NO oceans on the whole world.
- Increased mob difficulty beyond the vanilla "hard" setting.
- A completely new & complex hostile mob spawning system to ensure better performance. We don't rely on spawners anymore.
- Added a lot of mob variations. (such as slow zombies that explode and poison everything in a certain radius upon death)
- Reworked the infection feature. Now less annoying but still deadly in certain situations. Also harder to cure.
- Food is harder to get. Overall aim is to make food the most valueable goods in the game.
- Agriculture nerfed. Farming needs good conditions to yield a good amount of food.
- You can now run out of seeds. Even with good conditions.
- XP Grinders nerfed. A lot less mob spawners and not as clustered.
- Mobs give less XP.
- Opening loot chests reward you with XP.
- Oredestribution nerfed. A lot less ores now.
- Difficulty/reward scaling. The harder the build/area the better are your chances for good loot.
- Completely reworked loot chests. There is a complex system behind the loot tables now.
- Nearly everything can be found in loot chests now. Even "god gear".
- Added special items in four categories: Uncommon, Rare, Legendary, Narcotics. All with uniqe stats/functions.
- Certain types of buildings have better chances for certain kinds of loot. (IE: A factory building has better chances to provide redstone related items, hospitals have better chances for narcotics etc.)
- Weapons, Tools and Armor can spawn in any condition.
- Withers can't be made by players anymore.
- Withers will be part of events or special locations.
- Fire Spread disabled. Still possible to burn items or single blocks, but fire won't spread over to other blocks.
- TNT & Gunpowder will be a lot harder to obtain.
Players are automatically shown as sneaking after a certain distance or when they are behind something, so now you'll never see a nametag through stuff anymore. No more going around finding underground bases but no more sneaking in your own base, too.
Realistic Chat and Cellphones
Chat is limited by range, you can whisper by adding parantheses, yell by adding these !!!! (try different amounts) or just talk normally. If you are lucky you might even find a phone. Using a phone is easy, just say the name of the person you want to talk to (while holding the phone) and if they have a phone it will ring. You can even have conference calls with up to 10 people (only the caller can add additional people). Also the issue with interrupting calls is fixed.
Another item you will encounter are radios. Radios can pick up on radio broadcasts sent out by radio towers. If they're strong enough you can even hone in on them.
Radio Towers
You're probably wondering how to build a radio tower so you can spam the aether. Well, just put a redstone torch on the side an obsidian block, slap a sign with a message on another side and pile iron bars on top of it until you reach your desired signal strength (there is a minimum of 5 ironbars above the obsidian block). Turning off the torch turns off the signal(as example with a lever).
Since the server dynamics get more and more complex we decided that we need some kind of way to introduce new players to the server. We decided that a lobby, how most servers do it, doesn't fit ours. So we came up with something we think will work great and not overload new players with informations. Most features will be explained as you play on. lets say you are new to the server and find a cellphone in a building. The lore of the item itself will contain informations about what exactly it is and how to use it (EXAMPLE). Of course we will still maintain the /help function for further information.

Replies (3)
Hi, In general you need atleast 2 year work experience to study MBA in most of the Universitiesin Dubai For students who do have work experience, they can consider doing MS in Management programs like International Business, Finance, Logistics, etc. You can look at the University of Wollongong and Heriot Watt university campuses in Dubai for the MBA and MS programs. You need to write IELTS or TOEFL to apply for admission. MAT is not required for admission.
In Malaysia, you can look Universities like University of Nottingham, SEGi University, Taylors University, Help University where you can apply for MBA.
Part Time working in general is not available in Malaysia but in Dubai, you have opportunities to find internships during education.

"Treatment and follow up"
About: Maidstone District General Hospital Maidstone District General Hospital Maidstone ME16 9QQ
Posted by Anonymous
My wife was admitted in 2012 with debilitating headaches. The A&E staff were excellent ans she was admitted with suspected meningitis. Since then the care has been shocking. Her notes were missing for nearly a year making any follow up with the neurologist almost impossible and now two years down the line my wife still has the headaches. I don't see the point of any of it.
Response from Maidstone District General Hospital 3 years ago
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback on the service your wife has received from the neurology department. We were sorry to learn of your disappointment with the care she has received and would be keen for you to contact our Patient Advice and Liaison Service (PALS) to see if we can help resolve the issues you have described. Please feel free to contact us on 01622 224960 or email firstname.lastname@example.com where a member of the team will be happy to help. Kind regards, The PALS Team.

Fidel Castro
(Leader of Cuba)
Megan Murphy
1) Profile of Fidel Castro
Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz was born August 13, 1926, in a small village in Cuba. Castro was president of Cuba from 1976-2008 after he overthrew Fulgencio Batista. He then made Cuba into a one-party socialist state under communists rule. He was in close contact with Russia and that is what made the US nervous about him, they even tried to assassinate Castro. Castro was a ruthless leader, killing more than 20,000 people. Castro has 9 children with 2 wives, but he is no longer married.
2) Audio/Visual/Artistic Element
- This piece explained the life of Fidel Castro. Son of sugar cane, earned respect early on in life, excelled academically and athletically. He then went to college and joined many intelectual groups. When he graduated he participated 2 foreign uprisings, Columbia and Dominican Republic. Castro ended the reign of Fulgencio Batista in 1959. Now Castro is the leader of Cuba and a hero to everyone he "saved". He was a symbol of hope for the lower class citizens, but a threat to the US. Fidel helped orchestrate the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, they were now in "striking distance" of the US. The US now wanted nothing to do with Cuba and they cut their ties in 1963. After he started a movement to nationalize health care. Fidel Castro was still a dictator. When the Soviet Union collapsed, Cuba had no other foreign ties which meant Cuba was in an economic collapse. Cubans panicked and then fled to the US. In the early 2000 Castro fell ill and handed power over to his brother, he never did take regain power.
3) Creative Piece
Create an original piece of writing that reflects on the legacy of your leader. Some suggestions include:
- It is April 14, 1992, Havana, Cuba it has been a very difficult couple months. My family and I are hungry and nervous. The Soviet Union has just collapsed and we have no way to get our supplies. Fidel Castro, our leader, is not helping. He is just worried about himself. We have been waiting for two and half weeks for more food. We are getting fed up with him. He seemed like a hero when he rescued us from Fulgencio Batista, but now he is looking like a coward. We have been trying to plan our escape to the US. Our neighbors left about a week ago, but we haven't heard from them since. We are getting a boat this Tuesday to leave this horrible place. I am very anxious and nervous we will be caught by Castro. I will be writing soon, wish me good luck!
4) Essential Question
Why is Fidel Castro, in the eyes of the United States, such a threat?

Gallop Racer 2004
September 1, 2004 - There are some games out there that will warmly welcome outsiders to a new niche and there are those that firmly stick with the idea of preaching to the converted. With Gallop Racer 2004, Tecmo is going with the latter idea. While all of the gameplay from the previous entries in the series is intact, with a few additions as well, there's little to entice new gamers to try out this horse racing simulation. As it stands, this title is an update for the loyal fans of the series and will give them plenty of enjoyment as everyone else scratches their heads.
Gallop Racer 2004: Get Your Horse On
June 18, 2004 - Gallop Racer 2003 offered a lot: some 3000 horses, plenty of racing, whipping, breeding, whip-breeding... Oh my. Gallop Racer 2004 features all this, some more (4000 horses), and some different.
E3 2004: Gallop Racer 2004 - First Look
May 12, 2004 - Tecmo is bringing the hard-hitting, short-man employing action of horse racing back to the PS2 with Gallop Racer 2004. The graphics are going to be better, some new tricks are going to be in place, and the breeding is going to get a lot more, uh, interactive. It's getting time to jump back in the saddle and go for the big bucks one more time.
E3 2004: Temco's E3 Lineup Rolls Out
May 11, 2004 - Temco rolled out its E3 lineup today with a suite of killer games on both Xbox and PS2.
Gaming Life in Japan
February 18, 2004 - The latest set of sales charts from Japan paint an interesting, albeit expected, picture: old seems to be in, and new seems to be out. For the weekend sales period, Sony's new Eye Toy peripheral managed sales of just 22,720 units. Meanwhile, the highest selling title in Nintendo's Famicom Mini lineup, Super Mario Brothers, managed to push 60,286 units, despite an unusual release on a Saturday. This sales data, provided via Enterbain, includes not just sales numbers, but information on how much stock was depleted for all games. Nintendo apparently managed to sell 87.7% of its stock of Super Mario Brothers, thus explaining why finding the game can be a bit tough. SCE, on the other hand, managed to sell 32.4% of its stock of Eye Toy. Apparently, all those people IGN spotted trying the camera at the ubiquitous kiosks weren't intrigued enough to actually buy it. Look higher on the list and you'll find Sengoku Musou, a spinoff, at the top followed by Pocket Monsters Fire Red & Leaf Green, a remake, at second and Dragon Ball Z 2, a sequel to an anime-based game, at third. While this information does seem to paint a somewhat bleak picture for originality in the Japanese game retail market, don't take it to mean all gloom and doom for the Eye Toy in particular Products like this tend to gain popularity on word of mouth, eventually making casual gamers take the plunge. We have a feeling that the Eye Toy will continue to appear on the sales charts for the Japanese market in the coming months. Will it end up as successful as it was in Europe? We'll have to wait and see. Read on for the reast of this week's report from Japan, including new love-game information, the latest sales charts, release dates and advertisements, surveys and fun facts from Famitsu and a new babe: Misaki Ito.

As a result of the progress we have made toward our operational goals, we expect to be profitable next quarter on an Adjusted EBITDA basis excluding litigation spend.
"During the third quarter, overall subscriptions increased 44% year-over-year as our deals with pay-TV operators brought TiVo to more and more homes and our MSO service revenue grew 84% in the third quarter as compared to the year-ago quarter, significantly more than the second quarter year-over-year growth rate of 22%. We continued to sign on new operator partners as Mediacom, Midcontinent, and Cable ONE turned to TiVo for their advanced television offerings, securing our leadership position amongst mid-sized operators and setting the stage for continued growth in our MSO business. Finally, the value of our intellectual property was once again highlighted by another favorable patent settlement, this time with Verizon, bringing the total consideration from the enforcement of our intellectual property to more than $1 billion from three litigations, and we believe further bolstering our position with respect to our ongoing intellectual property enforcement actions."
For the third quarter, service and technology revenues increased 18% to $61.0 million. This compared to guidance of $57 million to $59 million and $51.8 million for the same quarter last year. TiVo reported net income of $59.0 million, compared to guidance of a net loss of $(27) million to $(29) million, and a net loss of $(24.5) million in the same quarter last year. Adjusted EBITDA was $71.9 million, compared to Adjusted EBITDA guidance of a loss of $(14) million to $(16) million, and to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $(13.9) million in the same quarter last year. Included in this quarter's results were $2.4 million of ongoing licensing revenue and $78.4 million of litigation proceeds relating to past damages from the Verizon settlement.
Rogers continued, "This quarter we signed three new operator partnerships. The first is with Mediacom Communications, the eighth-largest cable operator in the U.S., which has chosen TiVo to deliver its next-generation, whole-home television experience to subscribers across its footprint. Additionally, Midcontinent Communications, a provider to approximately 300,000 customers, selected TiVo for its advanced television services. Finally, we announced a deal with Cable ONE, the 10th largest cable operator in the U.S. For Cable ONE, given its past experiences, it was critical for them to select a partner with a proven track record of execution. With these deals in place, we currently have relationships with 10 of the top 25 operators in the U.S.
"These deals increase the potential for TiVo to reach more homes and to drive further meaningful financial upside as we expect our existing R&D investment will be heavily leveraged, making it possible to implement a TiVo offering quickly with minimal incremental development cost. Additionally, these deployments are expected to utilize a six-tuner gateway set-top box that we are currently developing with Pace, which is expected to further reduce costs for operators.
"In terms of our existing deployments, we are continuing to see impressive subscription growth. In fact, several of our partners beyond Virgin Media have achieved a double-digit percentage TiVo penetration of their subscriber base as our product has become a key differentiator for their offering, which in addition to helping bolster customer acquisition is reducing churn rates and improving revenue per subscriber.
"In the U.K., Virgin Media continues to improve its pay television net additions, which are accelerating while its primary competitor is experiencing decelerating net additions. TiVo is now being enjoyed by more than one million Virgin Media subscribers, representing 30% of their base. Further, we recently announced Virgin Media is extending the TiVo experience beyond the set-top box by delivering video through an IP network from the cloud to a variety of devices. Virgin Media has recently introduced an app for iOS devices and a web portal that will give subscribers access to live program viewing, thousands of hours of on-demand content on tablets, smartphones, and computers, plus the ability to remotely manage their TiVo service.
"In Spain, despite a challenging economic environment, ONO had its best quarter of TiVo subscription growth to date, almost doubling its TiVo subscription base for the third straight quarter.
"In Scandinavia, we remain on track to launch our first IPTV implementation with Com Hem next year, which will allow Com Hem to offer TiVo both in its traditional form and directly from the cloud to connected devices without the need for a set-top box. We believe this cloud implementation will further increase the appeal of TiVo to pay-TV operators across the globe and will allow these operators to offer a superior television experience without the need to incur significant capex from set-top box purchases.
"In the U.S., our efforts with small and mid-sized cable operators continued to yield strong results as we delivered our strongest aggregate net subscription additions to date. With the announced launch of our non-DVR IP set-top box, TiVo Mini, that will create a whole home thin-client experience for our operators and TiVo Stream, which allows customers to stream as well as download content from their DVRs to their iPads and iPhones, as well as other planned products next year, we believe that we are well positioned to drive similar results across all of our domestic partnerships.
"On the TiVo-Owned front, we posted our best net subscription performance in almost four years and our lowest absolute churn rate in approximately six years. This quarter we also saw an increased percentage of sales of non-subsidized, higher end devices with larger hard drives and more tuners, which have significantly lower associated subscription acquisition costs. Looking ahead, we are planning on reallocating the subsidy dollars gained from this hardware mix shift to marketing programs which we believe will allow us to gain subscription additions while not significantly increasing acquisition costs from the levels we've seen over the last year.
"In addition, our Comcast TiVo offering continues to be well received and has been expanded from two to twelve markets. We've also expanded our retail distribution to Wal-Mart, the largest domestic retailer, which provides opportunity to drive incremental sales. With lower churn, better messaging, a mix shift to higher-end products, more distribution, as well as continued product innovation; we believe the prospects to drive stronger financial results for this business are as good as they've been in some time.
"Our efforts to take the TiVo experience beyond the living room took a significant step forward this quarter with the launch of our TiVo Stream offering. Early sales results in retail have been well above our forecasts and our MSO partners are excited to distribute the product, which has received significant accolades from media reviewers as well as our end-user customers.
"We also continue to build our data analytics business, with a focus on growing new revenue-enhancing opportunities and bolstering our ability to provide unique insights to an industry increasingly seeking alternative ways to measure audience behavior. We are quickly integrating the capabilities of TRA, now rebranded TiVo Research and Analytics (TRA), with our existing measurement services and are providing brands, advertisers, and networks with invaluable insights into not only what shows are being most watched, but also insights and analytics that link television viewing and purchase activity.
"This quarter our intellectual property was once again validated as we settled our patent litigation with Verizon for at least $250 million, bringing the total consideration from our intellectual property enforcement actions to more than $1 billion. We remain confident that the successes we've had defending our innovation, positions TiVo favorably in our ongoing enforcement actions, and believe the settlement with Verizon only further strengthens our hand."
Rogers concluded, "We believe this was a quarter marked by encouraging progress across the board for our business. Many of our operator deals are in full swing and are bringing the TiVo experience to hundreds of thousands of new homes. We signed important new distribution deals and secured a valuable litigation settlement with Verizon. We also continue to build a strategic position in the audience research and advertising arena. We believe that these trends will drive continued improvement of our financial results and support our plan to be profitable on an Adjusted EBITDA basis, excluding litigation expenses, in the fourth quarter."
Management Provides Financial Guidance
For the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2013, TiVo anticipates service and technology revenues in the range of $63 million to $65 million. TiVo anticipates net loss to be in the range of $(15) million to $(17) million and an Adjusted EBITDA loss to be in the range of $(2) million to $(4) million, including litigation expense.
Additionally, TiVo expects to be profitable on an Adjusted EBITDA basis excluding litigation spend in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013 and for current operational trends to drive continued Adjusted EBITDA and net income improvement going forward.
This financial guidance is based on information available to management as of November 28, 2012. TiVo expressly disclaims any duty to update this guidance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Results. TiVo's "EBITDA" means income before interest income and expense, provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization. TiVo's "Adjusted EBITDA" is EBITDA less expense for stock-based compensation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles, which we refer to as GAAP. We have presented EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA solely as supplemental disclosure because we believe they allow for a more complete analysis of our results of operations and we believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors because EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are commonly used to analyze companies on the basis of operating performance. In addition, because of the variety of equity awards used by companies, the varying methodologies for determining stock-based compensation expense, and the subjective assumptions involved in those determinations, we believe excluding stock-based compensation enhances the ability of management and investors to evaluate our operating performance over multiple periods. Management does not use EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of liquidity because, among other things, they do not exclude the impact of deferred revenues associated with the amortization of product lifetime subscriptions. We do not use stock-based compensation expense in our internal measures. A limitation associated with these non-GAAP measures is that they do not include any stock-based compensation expense related to hiring, retaining, and incentivizing the Company's workforce. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to represent, and should not be considered more meaningful than, or as an alternative to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP.
TIVO INC. OTHER DATA Subscriptions Three Months Ended October 31, -------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ (Subscriptions in thousands) 2012 2011 -------------------------------------------- -------------- -------------- TiVo-Owned Subscription Gross Additions: 30 30 Subscription Net Additions/(Losses): TiVo-Owned (15) (30) MSOs 240 147 -------------- -------------- Total Subscription Net Additions/(Losses) 225 117 Cumulative Subscriptions: TiVo-Owned 1,042 1,135 MSOs 1,898 910 -------------- -------------- Total Cumulative Subscriptions 2,940 2,045 % of TiVo-Owned Cumulative Subscriptions paying recurring fees 54% 56%
Included in the 1,042,000 TiVo-Owned subscriptions are approximately 208,000 lifetime subscriptions that have reached the end of the period TiVo uses to recognize lifetime subscription revenue. These lifetime subscriptions no longer generate subscription revenue.
Subscriptions. Management reviews this metric, and believes it may be useful to investors, in order to evaluate our relative position in the marketplace and to forecast future potential service revenues. Above is a table that details the change in our subscription base during the last three months ended October 31, 2012 and October 31, 2011. The TiVo-Owned lines refer to subscriptions sold directly or indirectly by TiVo to consumers who have TiVo-enabled DVRs and for which TiVo incurs acquisition costs. The MSO lines refer to subscriptions sold to consumers by MSOs such as DIRECTV, Virgin Media, Cableuropa S.A.U. ("ONO"), RCN, Grande, and Suddenlink, among others, and for which TiVo expects to incur little or no acquisition costs. Additionally, we provide a breakdown of the percent of TiVo-Owned subscriptions for which consumers pay recurring fees as opposed to a one-time prepaid product lifetime fee.
We define a "subscription" as a contract referencing a TiVo-enabled DVR for which (i) a consumer has committed to pay for the TiVo service and (ii) service is not canceled. We count product lifetime subscriptions in our subscription base until both of the following conditions are met: (i) the period we use to recognize product lifetime subscription revenues ends; and (ii) the related DVR has not made contact to the TiVo service within the prior six month period. Product lifetime subscriptions past this period which have not called into the TiVo service for six months are not counted in this total. Prior to November 1, 2011 we amortized all product lifetime subscriptions over a 60 month period. Effective November 1, 2011, we have extended the period we use to recognize product lifetime subscription revenues from 60 months to 66 months for product lifetime subscriptions where we have not recognized all of the related deferred revenue as of the reassessment date. We are not aware of any uniform standards for defining subscriptions and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies. Additionally, the subscription fees that our MSOs pay us are typically based upon a specific contractual definition of a subscriber or subscription which may not be consistent with how we define a subscription for our reporting purposes nor be representative of how such subscription fees are calculated and paid to us by our MSOs. Our MSOs subscription data is based in part on reporting from our third-party MSO partners.
TIVO INC. OTHER DATA - KEY BUSINESS METRICS Three Months Ended October 31, ------------------------------------------- TiVo-Owned Churn Rate 2012 2011 -------------------- -------------------- (In thousands, except churn rate per month) Average TiVo-Owned subscriptions 1,050 1,149 TiVo-Owned subscription cancellations (45) (60) -------------------- -------------------- TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month (1.4)% (1.7)% -------------------- --------------------
TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per Month. Management reviews this metric, and believes it may be useful to investors, in order to evaluate our ability to retain existing TiVo-Owned subscriptions (including both monthly and product lifetime subscriptions) by providing services that are competitive in the market. Management believes factors such as service enhancements, service commitments, higher customer satisfaction, and improved customer support may improve this metric. Conversely, management believes factors such as increased competition, lack of competitive service features such as high definition television recording capabilities in our older model DVRs or access to certain digital television channels or MSO Video On Demand services, as well as increased price sensitivity and installation and CableCARD technology limitations, may cause our TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month to increase.
We define the TiVo-Owned Churn Rate per month as the total TiVo-Owned subscription cancellations in the period divided by the Average TiVo-Owned subscriptions for the period (including both monthly and product lifetime subscriptions), which then is divided by the number of months in the period. We calculate Average TiVo-Owned subscriptions for the period by adding the average TiVo-Owned subscriptions for each month and dividing by the number of months in the period. We calculate the average TiVo-Owned subscriptions for each month by adding the beginning and ending subscriptions for the month and dividing by two. We are not aware of any uniform standards for calculating churn and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies.
Three Months Ended Twelve Months Ended October 31, October 31, -------------------- -------------------- 2012 2011 2012 2011 --------- --------- --------- --------- Subscription Acquisition Costs (In thousands, except SAC) Sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs $ 1,560 $ 2,398 $ 6,509 $ 8,286 Hardware revenues (21,072) (12,970) (61,890) (45,901) Less: MSOs'-related hardware revenues 13,051 8,998 40,656 24,273 Cost of hardware revenues 23,434 16,817 76,704 63,773 Less: MSOs'-related cost of hardware revenues (11,841) (6,351) (36,811) (17,463) --------- --------- --------- --------- Total Acquisition Costs 5,132 8,892 25,168 32,968 ========= ========= ========= ========= TiVo-Owned Subscription Gross Additions 30 30 114 142 Subscription Acquisition Costs (SAC) $ 171 $ 296 $ 221 $ 232 ========= ========= ========= =========
Subscription Acquisition Cost or SAC. Management reviews this metric, and believes it may be useful to investors, in order to evaluate trends in the efficiency of our marketing programs and subscription acquisition strategies. We define SAC as our total TiVo-Owned acquisition costs for a given period divided by TiVo-Owned subscription gross additions for the same period. We define total acquisition costs as sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs less net TiVo-Owned related hardware revenues (defined as TiVo-Owned related gross hardware revenues less rebates, revenue share and market development funds paid to retailers) plus TiVo-Owned related cost of hardware revenues. The sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs line item includes advertising expenses and promotion-related expenses directly related to subscription acquisition activities, but does not include expenses related to advertising sales. We do not include third-parties' subscription gross additions, such as MSOs' gross additions with TiVo subscriptions, in our calculation of SAC because we typically incur limited or no acquisition costs for these new subscriptions, and so we also do not include MSOs' sales and marketing, subscription acquisition costs, hardware revenues, or cost of hardware revenues in our calculation of TiVo-Owned SAC. We are not aware of any uniform standards for calculating total acquisition costs or SAC and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies.

Average Revenue Per Subscription or ARPU. Management reviews this metric, and believes it may be useful to investors, in order to evaluate the potential of our subscription base to generate revenues from a variety of sources, including service fees, advertising, and audience research measurement. You should not use ARPU as a substitute for measures of financial performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes it is useful to consider this metric excluding the costs associated with rebates, revenue share, and other payments to channel because of the discretionary and varying nature of these expenses and because management believes these expenses, which are included in hardware revenues, net, are more appropriately monitored as part of SAC. We are not aware of any uniform standards for calculating ARPU and caution that our presentation may not be consistent with that of other companies. Further, the inclusion of advertising and audience research measurement revenues in our service revenues has the effect of increasing ARPU above the amounts that are directly attributable to TiVo service subscription fees. With the acquisition of TRA in July 2012, future growth in our audience research measurement revenues will have the effect of further increasing this impact. Furthermore, ARPU for our MSOs may not be directly comparable to the service fees we may receive from these partners on a per subscription basis as the fees that our MSOs pay us may be based upon a specific contractual definition of a subscriber or subscription which may not be consistent with how we define a subscription for our reporting purposes or be representative of how such subscription fees are calculated and paid to us by our MSOs. For example, an agreement that includes contractual minimums may result in a higher than expected MSOs ARPU if such fixed minimum fee is spread over a small number of subscriptions. Additionally, ARPU for our MSO subscriptions may not be reflective of revenues received by TiVo as in certain cases the cost of development for such MSO customer may be deferred on our condensed consolidated balance sheet until later when related revenues from service fees are received and are first recognized as Technology revenues by us until the previously deferred costs of development are fully expensed. This recognition of service fees as Technology revenues will have the effect of lowering ARPU for certain of our MSO subscriptions until such costs of development are fully expensed.
We calculate ARPU per month for TiVo-Owned subscriptions by subtracting MSOs'-related service revenues (which includes MSOs' subscription service revenues and MSOs'-related advertising and audience research measurement revenues) from our total reported net service revenues and dividing the result by the number of months in the period. We then divide the resulting average service revenue by Average TiVo-Owned subscriptions for the period, calculated as described above for churn rate. The above table shows this calculation.
We calculate ARPU per month for MSOs' subscriptions by first subtracting TiVo-Owned-related service revenues (which includes TiVo-Owned subscription service revenues and TiVo-Owned related advertising and audience research measurement revenues) from our total reported service revenues. Then we divide average revenues per month for MSOs'-related service revenues by the average MSOs' subscriptions for the period. The above table shows this calculation.

Much of the debate in world football these days is about the 2022 World Cup, which will be hosted by Qatar. The corruption allegations and FIFA's subsequent refusal to reveal any details of its investigations are why an event eight years away is already in the news. Once that mess gets sorted out, the critics would likely bicker over something else that the Middle Eastern country may or may not have.
What the critics do need to focus on, however, is the long list of problems that the very next World Cup tournament is likely to give rise to. The 2018 tournament is slated to take place in Russia – a piece of land that harbors more than its share of abnormalities, both cultural and otherwise.
Here is a tentative list of issues that Russian authorities and FIFA need to address before 32 of the best international teams gather up for the planet's biggest sporting event.
While the rest of Europe has shown significant improvement as far as racism is concerned, Russia lags far behind. Instances of racism against black players are observed in the country's topflight football division far too often. A survey found out that over half of Africans in Moscow had been physically attacked in the past. Moreover, monkey taunts have become so common that people don't even report it.
Manchester City star Yaya Toure was abused just last when his team visited Moscow to play CSKA. Then, FC Rostov head coach Igor Gamula shocked everyone last year by saying that he won't sign any more dark-skinned players because they might give his team Ebola.
A World Cup attracts people from all cultures, races and ethnicities. Now imagine if someone pulls off a similar stunt during a match and the victim decides not to continue. It has happened before and it could happen again. Of course pro-Russians would say that similar things were said about the Sochi Olympics and nothing of that sort happened. Well, the magnitude difference between a Winter Olympics and a FIFA World Cup is massive.
Just as racism is a prevalent menace in Russian sports, homophobia is too. The members of LGBT community in socially conservative Russia face legal and social challenges in every walk of life. A 2013 poll indicated that a large majority of Russians oppose legal recognition of same-sex marriage and support laws discriminating against LGBT people. Would it be wise for homosexual fans to visit Russia knowing that a large majority of Russians despise their kind?
Even in summer, the Russian climate could be a bit too frosty for South American countries. Each year there are some games in the Russian topflight division where the entire surface of the pitch is covered in snow. Such weather conditions could disrupt the game – unless of course the organizers plan on installing heating system below the pitches.
Possibility Of War
At several points in the past seven months it has seemed as if an all-out war might break out between Russia and neighboring Ukraine. Granted that the tournament was awarded to Russia years before their tiff with Ukraine took the shape of an armed conflict, but the situation today is that the region is unsafe for millions of international fans to visit.


text: By Jayme Fraser | June 5, 2013 | Updated: June 5, 2013 7:08am Houstonians and firefighters from across Texas and the nation will come together at Reliant Stadium this morning to honor four Houston firefighters who died in Friday's five-alarm blaze at a southwest Houston restaurant and motel. The public memorial service for Houston Fire Department firefighters Robert Bebee, Matthew Renaud, Anne Sullivan and Robert Garner is scheduled to start at 10 a.m., preceded by a procession of firetrucks, equipment and fellow Houston firefighters around Reliant Park. The four were killed in a roof collapse at a restaurant attached to the Southwest Inn in the 5800 block of the Southwest Freeway. Thirteen other firefighters were injured battling the blaze, one critically.
