Additional analyst comment has been added to this story. SAN FRANCISCO ( TheStreet) - Facebook ( FB) announced its Graph Search technology at a closely-watched press event this week, and while Wall Street didn't react favorably to the announcement, I believe investors are missing the forest for the trees. CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook executives Tom Stocky and Lars Rasmussen, both formerly of Google ( GOOG), announced the new product designed to help users find more about their friends, what they like, and where they've been, in order to make their own lives easier. While Zuckerberg stressed this product is in beta right now (it's only rolling out to hundreds or thousands immediately and is not available on mobile yet), it's clear that Graph Search has great potential. As users continue to tag photos, 'like' pages, and import data to their Facebook pages, Graph Search will get smarter and its recommendations better. Zuckerberg stressed that Graph Search is not the traditional web search done by Google, Facebook partner Microsoft ( MSFT) and others, but much more. "Graph search is really powerful," he said, during his presentation. "This is really neat stuff. It's one of the coolest things we've done in a while." JP Morgan analyst Doug Anmuth believes that this will hit Google, as more results eventually show up in Graph Search, and not on Google. "Google's stated mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful," he wrote, in a research note. "However, as Facebook's mapping of the social graph rapidly expands, more and more of that information will reside on Facebook and be included in Graph Search, not Google's search results." Anmuth notes that Graph Search is not a replacement for Web search, but may be more useful, and, given the limited scope of the project now, may eventually become extremely useful. "Graph Search may not have the near-term revenue impact of some other initiatives that the Street was looking for in Tuesday's announcement, but we think it makes Facebook's data far more useful by giving it greater shelf life and surface-ability, which should deepen engagement on the site," he wrote. The analyst rates Facebook "overweight" with a $35 price target. Right now, Graph Search mainly focuses on photos, places, people and useful things as its four major pillars, but there's more to come, according to Zuckerberg. Graph Search works by indexing users' connections. If you or your friends don't want something to be searchable, however, privacy settings on your account can keep those embarrassing photos hidden. Most of the information, at least initially, seems as if it will come from a user's friends, but there's also a way to search across people who aren't your friends to provide the most useful answer. Advertisers will eventually eat this up, helping generate a new revenue stream for Facebook. "This could be a business over time," Zuckerberg said, but noted that the social network first needs to turn Graph Search into exactly what people want.

Honda will voluntarily recall 310,773 Pilot vehicles from the 2009 through 2011 model years in the U.S. to inspect and potentially replace the driver's and/or front passenger's seat belt.
Honda initiated this voluntary recall due to a manufacturing error on a small number of front seat belts, where the stitching connecting the lap section of the belt to the outboard anchor webbing may be incomplete or missing. In a crash, affected seat belts may become disconnected from the anchor webbing, increasing the risk of injury. No injuries or deaths have been reported related to this condition.
Honda is announcing this recall to encourage all owners of affected vehicles to take their vehicles to an authorized dealer as soon as they receive notification of this recall from Honda. The only way to concretely determine whether the seat belts in an affected vehicle were properly completed is through a specific inspection process conducted by an authorized dealer; the inspection (and any necessary seat belt replacement) will be conducted for free. Written notification to customers will begin in early October 2011.
When Honda identifies concerns of this nature, nothing is more important to the company than fulfilling its obligation and responsibility to alert customers. To this end, in addition to contacting customers by mail, after early October, owners of these vehicles will be able to determine if their vehicles require repair by going on-line to www.recalls.honda.com or by calling (800) 999-1009, and selecting option 4.

Scam fam sent off to prison
A seething Queens judge walloped three members of a crooked Richmond Hill family yesterday, sending them upstate to serve a combined 418 years for a brazen immigration and real-estate scam. The mom, dad and daughter — dubbed "The Ramsundar Gang" by Queens Supreme Court Justice Kenneth Holder — paid a shocking price for defrauding 19 families of $1.8 million over six years. Holder said his harsh sentences are nothing compared to the street justice the Ramsundar family would have faced back in their native Trinidad. Read More: New York Post
Body of man found in garbage pile fire outside Furniture Zone store
A man's charred body was discovered in a burning pile of garbage in Brooklyn Thursday morning, police said. Firefighters who were called to a blaze on Hendrickson Street in Marine Park shortly before 4 a.m. made the grisly discovery. The body, believed to be that of a white male, was lying on top of several boxes and had been burned beyond recognition, sources said. The fire erupted at the side of a Furniture Zone store in an area frequented by vagrants, according to a taxi stand manager who works in the area. Read More: Daily News
Queens Residents Brace For 7 Train Disruptions
It's going to be a long winter for the several thousand western Queens residents who rely on the 7 train to get around town on the weekends come January 23. That's when an 11-week service shutdown begins, which means no trains on Saturdays and Sundays until the spring. "This is not a neighborhood that has five different places where you can use instead. We're very isolated there," said Queens resident Moitri Savard. The MTA says the work is essential to make critical infrastructure improvements and upgrade tracks and switches. It also needs to clean the tracks of muck it says have accumulated over the years. Read More: NY1
Elevators in building where Manhattan ad exec died had numerous problems
Elevator problems were an epidemic at the building where a Manhattan ad executive died in a horrific accident last month, newly revealed Buildings Department records show. City inspectors wrote 11 violations against 13 elevators at 285 Madison Avenue in the immediate aftermath of the December 14 tragedy that killed Suzanne Hart, 41, the public records show. Investigators are still trying to determine the exact cause of the malfunction that killed the Brooklyn resident. The elevator that killed Hart so far has only been cited for a paperwork problem — it was among several elevators in the building that lacked a "certificate of compliance" with Buildings rules, the records show.

Pedestrian hit on FDR
A taxi passenger was struck by a minivan on the FDR last night after he impatiently hopped out of the cab in heavy traffic and darted across the roadway, police sources said. The unidentified victim was headed northbound near East 105th Street at around 11:30 p.m. when his cab hit congestion, the sources said. He left the vehicle and was struck in a southbound lane by a Toyota minivan. The victim was rushed to Metropolitan Hospital in unknown condition. Read More: New York Post
New arrests at Zuccotti
A gang of Occupy Wall Street protesters skulked back to the park yesterday, racking up three arrests.

All three were charged with trespassing, and two were also hit with resisting arrest. Read More: New York Post
St. John's loses to Marquette
For all the freshman mistakes and youthful inconsistency, St. John's has played hard this season, rarely had its effort called into question. But last night it wasn't so much questioned as flat-out criticized, the Red Storm folding in the second half of an 83-64 beating at the hands of No. 24 Marquette. The bowed heads and slumped shoulders and palpable frustration told the tale. The Red Storm (8-8, 2-3 Big East) have lost all six of their games against ranked teams, and with a chance at a breakthrough, what it got was a breakdown. It let Marquette shoot 67.7 percent to turn a second-half lead into a blowout loss. Read More: New York Post

Bono: Alicia Keys Is "Scary"
Bono fights fearlessly for humanitarian causes around the world, but there's one thing that really petrifies him: Alicia Keys!
At the premiere of the Showtime documentary "Keep a Child Alive" with Alicia Keys on Tuesday in New York, the Associated Press reports that the U2 frontman interrupted Keys' speech and said: "She's scary, isn't she? She's scary!"
Bono, 51, added that the mom of 13-month-old son, Egypt, and wife to Swizz Beatz has "lioness energy."
"I was terrified the moment I met her. I was shaking in my boots," the Irish musician and philanthropist said. "I was very moved by her singing of course, but what was interesting was the hard questions afterwards, and I think it's those hard questions that she asks that lead her."
PHOTOS: Egypt and other famous babes with unique names
Keys, 30, started her charity, Keep a Child Alive, in 2003. It assists those affected by HIV/AIDS in Africa and India. She hopes her documentary reaches out to all those who want to help, including those unable to travel to Africa.
PIC: Alicia throws her hubby a surprise b-day bash!
"Keep a Child Alive" with Alicia Keys airs on the cable television Showtime channel on Dec. 1, which is World AIDS Day.

- How to Read a Study Record
- Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are a group of developmental disorders that affect communication, social interaction, and behavior. Relatively little is known about the relationship between genetics and behavior among these individuals and their close relatives. Researchers are interested in using interviews and rating scales to better understand these issues, as well as collecting brain scan data and genetic samples for testing and comparison.
- By comparing test results and genetic samples from healthy volunteers, people with ASD, and parents (or caregivers or legal guardians) of the first two groups, researchers hope to better understand the neuroscience of ASD.
- To learn more about the brain in healthy people and in people with autism spectrum disorders.
- To study genes that might be involved in autism spectrum disorders by collecting DNA samples from participants.
The following groups of participants will be eligible for the study:
- Individuals between 5 and 89 years of age who have autism spectrum disorders.
- Healthy volunteers between 5 and 89 years of age.
- Cognitively impaired children between 5 and 17 years of age.
- Parents/caregivers/legal guardians of individuals in the above three groups.
- Participants will visit the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center for research tests, which will be administered over multiple visits. Researchers will determine the specific tests to be administered based on the medical history of the study participant.
- Researchers will study the brain through interviews, tests of thinking and memory (neuropsychological tests), brain imaging with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and magnetoencephalography (MEG).
- The study will also collect blood or saliva to obtain a DNA sample.

|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Time Perspective: Other
|Official Title:
|Cognitive Neuroscience of Autism Spectrum Disorders
- Group differences in brain structure, brain function, and cognitive functions, as well as their genetic associations.
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|November 18, 2009
Objective: The primary objective of the proposed studies is to utilize neuroimaging (functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging [fMRI], structural MRI [sMRI], Magnetoencephalography [MEG]) and neuropsychological tools (eye-tracking, cognitive experiments, clinical neuropsychological measures, questionnaires, etc.) to identify cognitive idiosyncrasies (e.g., social-cognitive deficits, visual perceptual assets, and savant skills) characteristic of individuals on the autism spectrum and their neural underpinnings across childhood and adulthood.
Study Population: Children, adolescents, and adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs), controls (i.e., typically developing children, adolescents, and adults and those with mild to moderate mental retardation), as well as caregivers/legal guardians/parents of these individuals.
Design: Descriptive/Characterization/Observational studies using primarily neuropsychological and neuroimaging methodologies.
Outcome Measures: Behavioral (reaction time, accuracy, eye movements, etc.) and neuroimaging (brain morphometry, BOLD, electrophysiology, etc.).
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|5 Years to 89 Years (Child, Adult, Senior)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Subjects will include:
- males and females.
- 5-89 years of age.
- A minimum IQ of 70 if age 18 or older.
- A minimum IQ of 50 if ages 5-17.
Subjects in the ASD group will:
- meet DSM-IV criteria for one of the pervasive developmental disorders (i.e., autistic disorder, Asperger disorder, or pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified).
- meet or pass the autism cut-off score for social symptoms on the ADI and/or the ASD cut-off score from social+communication symptoms on the ADOS.
All subjects, except for savants, also will be excluded if they have:
- a history of neurological insult/injury.
- substantial prenatal drug exposure known to affect later brain and behavior (e.g., cocaine, alcohol).
- severely premature birth or birth trauma.
- severe medical disorder (e.g., neurofibromatosis, hydrocephalus, cerebral palsy, uncontrollable seizure disorder).
a known genetic disorder (e.g., Fragile X or Down syndrome) that would be expected to significantly impact findings from cognitive testing and/or neuroimaging.
Furthermore, subjects will be excluded from MRI/MEG studies, if they have:
- any exclusion from MRI scanning including: the presence of metal in their body, having a pacemaker, and/or females who are pregnant.
Healthy volunteers, except for parents of individuals with autism spectrum disorders, parents of healthy volunteers, and parents of children with cognitive impairments, will also be excluded if they have:
1. a current or past history of axis I psychiatric conditions or any current usage of psychiatric medication.
Savants have less restrictive exclusionary criteria. Those with tumors or other neuroimaging-relevant contraindications will be excluded from fMRI/MEG procedures.

For many people, the concept of participating in a clinical trial is intimidating, frightening and unappealing.
But local physician-scientists will remind naysayers that anyone who takes a medication or has a medical treatment is able to do so because of clinical research. And that research was made possible because average people volunteered to participate in it.
There are three common public misperceptions about clinical trials that cause people to shy away:
One of the biggest myths out there is that clinical trials are only for people with no other choices. There are clinical trials for every stage of disease as well as prevention and early detection, and they all have value.
Clinical trials are the last step in a carefully regulated, detailed scientific process that starts in a laboratory in cells or tissue and is then tested in humans—oftentimes years later and always after strenuous review.
Medical studies are supervised by a local physician and look at every stage of disease, from first diagnosis to advanced disease. All are designed to find, diagnose, treat or prevent cancer.
Clinical trials exist to answer questions and allow us to learn better ways to treat specific diseases. It is the only way medicine can move forward. Every new drug must be studied to avoid unforeseen negative outcomes and avoid treatments that aren't beneficial. Even though not everyone who participates in a clinical trial will receive the investigational therapy, everyone does get the same standard of care they would if they didn't participate.
There are four basic types of clinical trials:
Before a patient is enrolled in a clinical trial, the individual is carefully screened against a set of criteria designed to create a group of people that are as similar as possible.
Qualification depends on a variety of factors including stage of disease, existing health conditions and other factors. The criteria for each trial are very specific to avoid including anyone in a trial that doesn't fit.
The patient then goes through what is known as "informed consent" where the goals of the trial, why it is needed and how it will work are explained in easily understandable terms.
Patients should take the time to discuss all the details of a clinical trial with their doctor and family before agreeing to participate. It is important to keep asking questions until the patient is 100 percent comfortable with their decision to participate.
Those questions might include information about costs, time commitments, potential benefits as well as side effects. This may vary, based on where the new therapy or tool is in development and testing process (phases).
Stringent patient protections implemented to ensure safety and ethical conduct are monitored by an Institutional Review Board (IRB), a governing committee made up of physicians, scientists and members of the community responsible for scientific review and approval of all clinical research studies. Other medical monitoring groups are in place to ensure medical oversight and ethical conduct throughout the clinical research process.
It is important to note that if a new drug or therapy doesn't show enough benefit to the target population in the early stages of human testing, it does not move forward.
The IRB is essentially a medical watchdog put in place to protect patients. They ensure that the medical risks are reasonable compared to the possible benefits of a clinical study.

Geography (from Greek γεωγραφία, geographia, lit. "earth description") is a field of science dedicated to the study of the lands, the features, the inhabitants, and the phenomena of Earth. A literal translation would be "to describe or picture or write about the earth". The first person to use the word "geography" was Eratosthenes (276–194 BC). Four historical traditions in geographical research are spatial analysis of the natural and the human phenomena (geography as the study of distribution), area studies (places and regions), study of the human-land relationship, and research in the Earth sciences.

Entertainment is a form of activity that holds the attention and interest of an audience, or gives pleasure and delight. It can be an idea or a task, but is more likely to be one of the activities or events that have developed over thousands of years specifically for the purpose of keeping an audience's attention. Although people's attention is held by different things, because individuals have different preferences in entertainment, most forms are recognisable and familiar. Storytelling, music, drama, dance, and different kinds of performance exist in all cultures, were supported in royal courts, developed into sophisticated forms and over time became available to all citizens.

Sport (UK) or sports (US) are all forms of usually competitive physical activity which, through casual or organised participation, aim to use, maintain or improve physical ability and skills while providing entertainment to participants, and in some cases, spectators. Usually the contest or game is between two sides, each attempting to exceed the other. Some sports allow a tie game; others provide tie-breaking methods, to ensure one winner and one loser. A number of such two-sided contests may be arranged in a tournament producing a champion. Many sports leagues make an annual champion by arranging games in a regular sports season, followed in some cases by playoffs.

Health is the level of functional or metabolic efficiency of a living organism. In humans it is the ability of individuals or communities to adapt and self-manage when facing physical, mental or social challenges. The World Health Organization (WHO) defined health in its broader sense in its 1948 constitution as "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity." This definition has been subject to controversy, in particular as lacking operational value and because of the problem created by use of the word "complete" Other definitions have been proposed, among which a recent definition that correlates health and personal satisfaction.

Dentistry is the branch of medicine that is involved in the study, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of diseases, disorders and conditions of the oral cavity, commonly in the dentition but also the oral mucosa, and of adjacent and related structures and tissues, particularly in the maxillofacial (jaw and facial) area.[2] Although primarily associated with teeth among the general public, the field of dentistry or dental medicine is thus not limited to odontology (from Ancient Greek ὀδούς (odoús, "tooth")) – the study of the structure, development, and abnormalities of the teeth. Because of their substantial overlap in concept, dentistry is often also understood to subsume the now largely defunct medical specialty of stomatology (the study of the mouth and its disorders and diseases) for which reason the two terms are used interchangeably in certain regions.
Dentistry is widely considered important for overall health. Dental treatment is carried out by the dental team, which often consists of a dentist and dental auxiliaries (dental assistants, dental hygienists, dental technicians, and dental therapists). Most dentists work in private practices (primary care), although some work in hospitals (secondary care) and institutions (prisons, armed forces bases, etc.).

In finance, a loan is a debt provided by one entity (organization or individual) to another entity at an interest rate, and evidenced by a note which specifies, among other things, the principal amount, interest rate, and date of repayment. A loan entails the reallocation of the subject asset(s) for a period of time, between the lender and the borrower. In a loan, the borrower initially receives or borrows an amount of money, called the principal, from the lender, and is obligated to pay back or repay an equal amount of money to the lender at a later time. The loan is generally provided at a cost, referred to as interest on the debt, which provides an incentive for the lender to engage in the loan. In a legal loan, each of these obligations and restrictions is enforced by contract, which can also place the borrower under additional restrictions known as loan covenants. Although this article focuses on monetary loans, in practice any material object might be lent.

In economics, a commodity is a marketable item produced to satisfy wants or needs. Economic commodities comprise goods and services. The term commodity is specifically used for an economic good or service when the demand for it has no qualitative differentiation across a market.[3] In other words, a commodity good or service has full or partial but substantial fungibility; that is, the market treats its instances as equivalent or nearly so with no regard to who produced them. As the saying goes, "From the taste of wheat, it is not possible to tell who produced it, a Russian serf, a French peasant or an English capitalist."

In finance, a bond is an instrument of indebtedness of the bond issuer to the holders. It is a debt security, under which the issuer owes the holders a debt and, depending on the terms of the bond, is obliged to pay them interest (the coupon) and/or to repay the principal at a later date, termed the maturity date. Interest is usually payable at fixed intervals (semiannual, annual, sometimes monthly). Very often the bond is negotiable, i.e. the ownership of the instrument can be transferred in the secondary market. This means that once the transfer agents at the bank medallion stamp the bond, it is highly liquid on the second market.

A watch is a small timepiece intended to be carried or worn by a person. It is designed to keep working despite the motions caused by the person's activities. A wristwatch is designed to be worn on a wrist, attached by a watch strap or other type of bracelet. A pocket watch is designed for a person to carry in a pocket. Watches evolved in the 17th century from spring-powered clocks, which appeared as early as the 14th century. The first watches were strictly mechanical, driven by clockwork. As technology progressed, mechanical devices, used to control the speed of the watch, were largely superseded by vibrating quartz crystals that produce accurately timed electronic pulses.[2] Some watches use radio clock technology to regularly correct the time. The first digital electronic watch was developed in 1970.

The USDA reports were neutral to supportive, with corn futures bouncing from early lows. The USDA Crop Production and WASDE reports implied the U.S. corn situation is somewhat tighter than previously thought, with the forecast carryout falling moderately below expectations. That sparked a post-report rebound. December corn futures rose 3.05 cents to $4.235/bushel late Friday morning, while May added 3.25 cents to $4.4325.
The soy complex surged in response to the USDA data. Traders in the soybean and product markets seemed to have mixed views about the likely results of today's reports, with beans and meal rising and oil falling beforehand. The actual numbers sparked bean and meal gains, due in part to carryout totals well below predictions from respected firms. Global carryout also fell below expectations. Oil futures continuing suffering from Thursday's FDA announcement concerning trans fat regulation. January soybean futures jumped 17.75 cents to $12.965/bushel around midsession Friday, while December soyoil fell 0.37 cents to 40.37 cents/pound, and December soymeal leapt $11.8 to $415.6/ton.
The WASDE numbers looked bearish for the wheat markets. Not only did today's wheat production data post a surprising rise from previous figures, the WASDE report appeared bearish. It forecast 2013/14 ending stocks well above pre-report averages. December CBOT wheat futures edged sown 0.75 cent to $6.5225/bushel just before lunchtime Friday, while December KCBT wheat futures fell 7.5 cent to $7.05, and December MWE futures advanced 5.25 to $7.0425.
Cattle futures proved surprisingly firm Friday morning. Weakness at both the cash and wholesale levels weighed upon cattle futures Thursday night, but rebounded modestly this morning. That seemingly reflected general optimism about the cattle/beef outlook, particularly from a seasonal standpoint. Futures also seem to be attracting buying from technicians looking at moving average support on the charts. December cattle futures rallied 0.62 cents to 132.30 cents/pound in late Friday morning action, while April futures moved up 0.27 to 134.47. January feeder cattle crept up 0.07 cents to 165.20 cents/pound, while March feeders climbed 0.12 cents to 164.95.
Hog futures are getting supportive news from related markets. In contrast to the cattle/beef complex, cash hog and pork prices have proven surprisingly strong this week. The fact that many in the industry have been anticipating persistent seasonal weakness probably exaggerated the impact of those gains this morning. December hog futures advanced 0.50 cents at 88.05 cents/pound as the lunch hour approached Friday, while April gained 0.52 to 93.70.

ON the day that marked the 70th anniversary since the D-Day landings, it was only fitting that part of its history was commemorated in Winchester.
Two memorial plaques and a rail signal were officially unveiled on the Hockley Viaduct on Friday (June 6), which runs adjacent to the M3 motorway through Winchester water meadows and the River Itchen.
It opened in October 1891, and linked Didcot, Newbury, Winchester and Southampton, playing a pivotal role in the transportation of soldiers and equipment during the First and Second World Wars.
The memorials are the final piece of the puzzle in the restoration of the site, which had been earmarked to be destroyed in the 1980s by the Army under Winchester City Council's orders, but was saved after public outcry.
Friends of Hockley Viaduct, which was set up in 2007, campaigned for its restoration.
Julia Sandison, organiser, said: "I am absolutely thrilled and the Hampshire public use it all the time – the amount of people that came through during the ceremony just shows how important this has become to people.
"It's historically, archeologically and architecturally important, and it is very beautiful."
Around 30 people attended the unveiling ceremony, including Group Captain Paul O'Neill of Worthy Down barracks, Australia's Lieutenant Commander Anthony Nagle, Canada's Lieutenant Colonel Tony Kaduck, India's Brigadier Saudeepau Handa, Steve Brine MP, and explorer, author and broadcaster, John Pilkington.
However, Chris Webb, who battled to preserve the viaduct for decades was unable to attend due to illness.
After a speech from Cllr Robert Hutchison, The Last Post sounded and there was even an impromptu fly-past.
The first memorial is dedicated to the troops who crossed the viaduct to and from the vast military camp at Avington to return home to the UK, Australia, Bermuda, Canada and India amongst others.
The Railway men who oversaw the passage in the run up to D-Day are recognised on the second plaque.

Hi Everyone,
I did a little searching around this site and could not find an answer. I have read in Vasubhandu's kosha and found one Theravada blurb on Google books that the realm of the fourth jhana/dhyana is not subject to destruction at the end of the world system. Then it would not be comprised of elements or caused by kammic/karmic winds. Is this correct? Having a hard time with, how then, someone born in this realm would be impermanent. I would be very appreciative is someone knowledgeable in Abhidhamma could explain this bit about Cosmology to me. Thank you,

According to the Sheriff's Department, a small group of people were standing in the driveway in the 20700 block of Alburtis Avenue when they were approached by a man about 11:20 p.m. Monday.
Words were exchanged, which lead to an argument and gunshots, deputies said.
A 36-year-old victim who was shot in the upper torso was taken to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police had yet to release his identity Wednesday.
The other victims - one woman and four men - suffered minor, non-life threatening gunshot wounds, deputies said.
According to witnesses, the suspect, described only as a Hispanic man, fled on foot.
Residents of the neighborhood just east of the 605 Freeway and south of Del Amo Boulevard declined to comment Wednesday on the shooting. An investigation is ongoing, deputies said.
Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's Homicide Bureau at 323-890-5500. Anonymous information can be given by calling "Crime Stoppers" at 800-222-TIPS (8477), or by texting the letters TIPLA plus your tip to CRIMES (274637), or by using the website http://lacrimestoppers.org.

The latter was the night of the great British (or, more precisely, southern English) hurricane, which the BBC weather forecaster Michael Fish failed to predict. Ever since, the Met Office has issued a bewildering array of "alerts" whenever a stiff breeze or, as in recent days, a flurry of snow is in prospect. Forecasters dare not be caught out again. Likewise, since the unpredicted attack of 9/11, no western politician dares to hang back when anybody utters the words "Islamic militants". So it is with the French bombing of Mali, supported by British transport planes. Laurent Fabius, France's foreign minister, says it will be over in "a matter of weeks" and, in London, ministers say British involvement will last just one week – but we've heard that sort of talk before. Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) is vicious and fanatical (though scarcely more so than the Malian military it opposes) but it has chosen to advance its cause through smuggling and kidnapping in the Sahel, rather than bombing in Paris or London. Western intervention invariably has destabilising consequences. America's war in Vietnam spread to the neighbouring Cambodia and led to the rise of the murderous Pol Pot. The invasion of Afghanistan turned parts of Pakistan into Taliban strongholds, leading to US drone attacks and Islamist bombings of cities. Now, in Mali, we see the consequences of active British, American and French support for rebels against Muammar Gaddafi in neighbouring Libya. The Tuaregs of northern Mali were prominent in Gaddafi's army. After his overthrow, they returned home, bristling with weapons, to resume their long separatist struggle. AQIM has capitalised on the growing instability. That is an oversimplified account, perhaps. Yet the narrative used to explain the French and British interventions – undertaken without a pretence at democratic consultation – is just as oversimplified and more likely to have lethal results. Going south At the Guardian, a terrible reckoning is at hand. To stem company losses, the management wants 100 editorial staff to leave. The great liberal organ may need, for the first time, to make compulsory redundancies. Hacks are told that, even if they accept a 5 per cent pay cut and relinquish their treasured sabbaticals (four weeks off every four years for "intellectual refreshment"), some will still be axed. As I write, a strike ballot is imminent. Meanwhile, the Guardian, which already has a substantial presence in the US, has announced a digital edition in Australia, with several staff, headed by the deputy editor Katharine Viner, seconded to Sydney. Is the company planning a more dramatic version of Rupert Murdoch's flight to Wapping? Will it abandon London printing and relocate its cyberspace operations to former colonial outposts? That's a joke, of course. But just in case it happens, you read it here first. A lot of hot air Talking of Murdoch, the old man has started to tweet climate-change scepticism, referring to "useless renewable energy". Is he reverting to type? Murdoch, influenced by his son James, went green in 2006. His UK papers followed in unison. The Sun, announcing that evidence for global warming "is now irresistible", devoted a week to urging readers to think green. The planet deserved "the benefit of the doubt", the Times ruled. However, after the phone-hacking scandal, James Murdoch's star is falling and he has been evacuated to New York. In the Murdoch papers, I fear, normal climate-change denial service will shortly be resumed. Loss leaders The government's proposal for a single, flatrate weekly pension of £144 has led to much discussion of winners and losers. All analyses I have seen miss one simple point: the poor will be the biggest losers from this or any other contributory pension scheme. That is because the life expectancy of poor people is significantly lower than that of the more affluent. They are less likely, therefore, to get out what they've put in. Homeward bound The other day, central London was drenched with rain and sleet and, as I travelled back to Loughton, Essex, where I live quietly and unfashionably, it continued to pour. As I crossed the Greater London border, it all turned to snow and, while it did not lie deep and crisp and even, the pretty scene was a striking contrast to the swirling puddles of London's streets. Loughton struggles to repel the capital's advance though, in a rare reversal, we reclaimed our constabulary fromthe Metropolitan Police some years ago. The government's hostility to the green belt won't help. So it is good to know the weather gods are on our side and recognise county boundaries.

forget this, just saw it mentioned in another thread
NICE, much better than before!
I guess a lot of teams are adapting this style
wonder if they can fit any more advertisements in there
It's much less cluttered in appearance, but something doesn't quite seem right to me. Oh well, it's not bad at all, and I'll become used to it.
Take me out to the black, tell 'em I ain't coming back. Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me.
I like it. It's a much more elegant design.
Life's a piece of ******

You'll see it's all a show
Keep 'em laughing as you go

So when replacing the rotary ring tool, it seemed like a good idea to listen to the opinions of others for a change. One car that I'd dismissed as too obvious and too boring quickly became the number one choice.
BMW's E36 3 Series was more than just a sales-rep status symbol during the '90s, it was a saloon-car racing superpower. And a quick ask around some of my Nurburgring friends revealed more local parts and knowledge for this car than any other option.
My particular car was sourced in the UK by a fellow British Nürburgring resident. Boasting a decently solid four-door shell, but a completely knackered motor, this car might not sound like an ideal purchase. But Richard sourced a nice nearly-new engine, fitted it and brought it across to his house at the 'ring for only a tiny bit more than the €1,000 euros I had left from the RX-8 sale.
I love the four-door shape, and a common bit of Nurburgring gossip will tell you that the shell of the four-door saloon car is the best choice for a race-car due to its superior stiffness and a lighter stripped weight than the coupe. Maybe that's true, maybe it's not. I don't really care.
None of this stopped me taking the standard car out for a lap on the Schnelleschwaben event. In standard trim, with knackered, leaking dampers and questionable brakes the 328i recorded a 9min3sec BTG laptime. Not bad, but a country mile away from the nimble RX-8.
8min20sec BTG. New (OK, secondhand) H&R Cup struts and springs could never be called sophisticated, but they're a massive improvement over stock. Some borrowed wheels and an almost-dead set of Toyo R888s managed to find their way on the car, as well as some pattern discs, EBC Bluestuff pads and Goodrich brake lines. All the fluids were changed for Motul including their 300V racing oil and RBF660 brake fluid.
Since then I've put the car through it's German MOT, which it passed easily enough. Right now, I'm on a high with the 328i. It's quick, it's cost me comfortably less than €2,000 to get to this point and I'm not worried about the engine going pop. And even if it does, it's a few hundred euros of parts, not a few thousand. The RX-8 is dead to me. Long live the 328i.

The investigators are doing this study to look at sleep problems, daytime sleepiness, and thinking and behavior patterns in children with arthritis and in children without arthritis. Arthritis is a problem with joints. Some children have arthritis and some children do not have arthritis.
Sleep disordered breathing is a sleeping problem in which some children snore and have pauses in their breathing during sleep. It is associated with not enough or fragmented sleep, poor school performance, problems paying attention, and behavior problems.
The investigators do not know how many children with arthritis have sleep problems, and how it is linked to daytime sleepiness and children's learning, and behavior patterns compared to children without arthritis. The investigators need to study both children with arthritis and children without arthritis to learn more about these connections and to understand if they are the same or different in children with arthritis and in children without arthritis.

|Official Title:
|Sleep Patterns in Children With and Without Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis
- Prevalence of Sleep Disordered Breathing [ Time Frame: 3.5 years ]
- Measures of Daytime Sleepiness [ Time Frame: 3.5 years ]After the overnight sleep study, children will undergo multiple sleep latency tests which are four 20-minute nap opportunities that assess daytime sleepiness.
Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA
|Estimated Enrollment:
|Study Start Date:
|September 2011
|Estimated Study Completion Date:
|February 2015
|Estimated Primary Completion Date:
|January 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Behavioral: comparison of types of sleep disordered breathing
Overview of Study:
- Children and their parent will be scheduled to come to the University of Washington School of Nursing Sleep Laboratory for overnight polysomnography, and to complete multi-sleep latency tests and a battery of neurobehavioral performance tests the next day at a convenient time and day.
- Children will be asked to complete a sleep, symptoms (pain, fatigue), behavior, and day to day activity surveys, and the parent who accompanies the child to the laboratory, will be asked to complete surveys assessing demographics, child's usual sleep, behavior, school performance, health status, and family functioning.
- Children will also be asked to spit in a container and urinate in a container upon awakening in the morning after their sleep study.
Primary Aims of the Study:
- Compare indices of sleep disturbances, risk factors, and type of sleep disordered breathing(primary snoring, upper airway resistance syndrome, obstructive sleep apnea) in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) to age, sex matched control children.
- Compare scores on neurobehavioral tests and daytime sleepiness; and to describe associations between indices of sleep disturbances on neurobehavioral performance and daytime sleepiness in JIA to age, sex matched control children.
Secondary Objectives:
1. Describe and compare parent report of child's sleep habits, fatigue, behavior, school performance, day-to-day activity, and family functioning in children with JIA to age, sex matched control children.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|6 Years to 11 Years (Child)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
|Sampling Method:
|Non-Probability Sample
- Children with arthritis will be recruited from the Division of Pediatric Rheumatology at Seattle Children's Hospital.

I was able to pick up a pair of these red wine decanters at our local auction. The decanters are stunning, the pictures just can't do it justice no matter how I've tried. Not sure who the maker is on these decanters. There is a sticker that says "Made in Poland" but that is all it says. I'm pretty sure they are fairly new, but not positive. I know I had never seen any decanters like them and fell in love. I'm hoping to get some comments. If anyone knows what this is, I would love to hear from you!!

Koto Unleashes The Green Goliath...
The Hulk has been a staple superhero of the Marvel Comics universe for years, battling foes across the universe in epic storylines. Mild-mannered scientist Dr. Bruce Banner was experimenting with highly volatile gamma radiation when an explosion bathed him with that green energy, transforming him into the enormous aggressive powerhouse known as the Hulk. As the massive creature Banner has been a menace to humanity as well as one of its greatest heroes, and in that respect has served with distinction among Marvels premiere champions. Celebrating his look in those comics comes an incredible brand new Fine Art Statue, Hulk Classic Avengers.
Sculpted by artist Erick Sosa, Hulk stands 12 inches tall on his special terrain display base in the same 1/6 scale as his fellow Avengers. Whether hes standing by himself in your display or alongside the Fine Art Statues of his teammates - Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, and Hawkeye - the mean green machine is sure to impress.
Available October 2013.
