Updated with British Bankers Association comments, trader correspondance. NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Barclays ( BCS) has agreed to pay regulators in the U.S. and Europe almost $500 million to settle a probe of its manipulation of key benchmark rates known as Libor and Euribor that appear to stretch from the banks trading desks to senior management. A manipulation of the rates may have unfairly impacted the borrowing costs of homeowners, governments and corporations around the world, as the bank allegedly tried to profit or curb losses tied to floating interest rates at the height of the financial crisis.
In three separate penalties, Barclays will pay the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.K.'s Financial Service Authority a total of $454 million. In the CFTC's settlement, Barclays traders - with the assistance of senior management -- are accused of attempting to manipulate the bank's true funding costs, which are key to setting short-term interest rates that are used in roughly $350 trillion of financial market contracts. According to the CFTC, Barclays traders and employees responsible for determining the bank's LIBOR and Euribor funding costs attempted to manipulate and falsely reported the benchmark interest rates to bolster profits or minimize losses on derivatives trades. Starting in 2005 Barclays's manipulation "occurred regularly and was pervasive" and involved the bank's traders in New York, London and Tokyo, in addition to "high levels of management within Barclays Bank," said the CFTC in its settlement order. During the financial crisis between August 2007 and early 2009, Barclays is accused of making artificially low Libor submissions to protect the bank from negative market and media perceptions concerning its funding costs, with instructions coming from Barclays' senior management, the CFTC said. In addition, they accuse Barclays' European traders of aiding and abetting traders at other banks in each other's attempts to manipulate Euribor. Already, the process of setting the rates, which is governed by the British Banking Association, has been criticized as being too opaque and giving far too much power to the world's largest banks. Banks are polled on the costs to borrow from each other in different currencies like the dollar, yen, euro and Swiss franc for 15 different periods, from overnight to one year. Some high and low quotes are excluded, with remaining bids averaged and set by the BBA. In the Department of Justice's settlement, it said on Wednesday that, "Barclays has admitted and accepted responsibility for its misconduct." The agency also added that a criminal investigation into the manipulation of Libor and Euribor by other financial institutions and individuals is ongoing and that its settlement with Barclays compels the bank to continue its cooperation on that investigation. Barclays settlement may be the first in a series of regulatory penalties that may be handed out to banking giants like HSBC ( HBC), Citigroup ( C), The Royal Bank of Scotland ( RBS) and JPMorgan ( JPM). "Because mortgages, student loans, financial derivatives, and other financial products rely on LIBOR and EURIBOR as reference rates, the manipulation of submissions used to calculate those rates can have significant negative effects on consumers and financial markets worldwide," said Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer, in a statement. Libor, or the London Interbank Offered Rate is a key reference rate for short-term bank funding, interest rate swaps, corporate bonds and even consumer financial products like adjustable rate mortgages. The DoJ's investigations have ties to a financial crimes task force launched by President Barack Obama in January.

Cross-border discovery disputes arise when documents that reside in one country are subject to production in another country. More often than not, the types of cases involving cross-border disputes are cases in the U.S. in which a party is trying to get documents from a party whose documents reside in Europe. It is often a "Catch-22" situation in which the need to gather relevant information in Europe for production in the U.S. conflicts with data privacy regulations, and sometimes even statutes in Europe that restrict or prohibit such discovery.
Part of the conflict in U.S. and European cross-border discovery disputes is a result of differing notions of what is reasonable and appropriate discovery. U.S. courts tend to have a very broad notion of discovery. The Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and state procedural rules generally provide that documents and data are discoverable if they are reasonably calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible information. European courts, conversely, tend to have a much narrower view of discovery. Countries in continental Europe generally prohibit disclosure of evidence beyond what is obviously needed for trial.
The conflict in U.S. and European cross-border discovery disputes also arises from major differences in how the U.S. and European countries view privacy and data protection.
The European Union considers privacy to be a fundamental right. In 1950, the Council of Europe's Convention on Human Rights adopted a charter of fundamental rights. Article 8 of that charter codifies a right to privacy. This right to privacy was further solidified in 1995 with the European Commission's adoption of the Data Protection Directive. The directive provides broad protections for personal data and places restrictions on the processing and transfer of data. "Processing" is broadly defined to include preservation. Moreover, in the EU, personal data includes an individual's name, a person's title and the office in which he or she works, among other information. The EU notion of personal data is very broad.
With technology advancements and the recognition that personal data can be moved around the globe almost instantaneously, the EU Commission published a draft of the EU Data Protection Directive regulations in January with proposed new reforms that increase EU citizen privacy protection and give individuals increased control over their data. The draft regulations also seek to harmonize data protection laws across the 27 EU member states. Among other proposed changes, the draft regulations would require multinational companies with more than 250 employees in the EU to appoint a data protection officer. The regulations would also subject those companies to potential sanctions of up to 2 percent of annual worldwide revenue for serious breaches, which could include unlawful data transfers to the U.S.
In the U.S., while the Supreme Court has recognized the need to respect foreign data privacy laws, the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure are not preempted by foreign privacy regulations. Therefore, in practice, U.S. courts often default to allowing broad discovery despite the risk to litigants subject to foreign privacy laws. For example, in Strauss v. Credit Lyonnais, the court ordered the defendant to produce documents in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, over the defendant's objections that doing so would subject the defendant to penalties under French privacy law. After the defendant complied, French authorities levied criminal penalties and fined counsel €10,000 for conducting discovery for U.S. litigation in violation of the French blocking statutes. In re Advocat "Christopher X."
Similarly, in Accessdata Corporation v. ALSTE Technologies GmbH, a German company refused to produce documents regarding customer complaints in a breach of contract action on the grounds that disclosure of such information would reveal third parties' identities and violate the German Data Protection Law and the German Constitution. The court ordered the German company to produce the documents, relying on Societe National Industrielle Aerospatiale v. United States District Court for the principle that blocking statutes, such as the German Data Protection Law, do not deprive U.S. courts of the power to order a party to produce evidence even though the party may violate a foreign statute.
Given the increasing frequency of these legal dilemmas, in February, the American Bar Association issued a resolution and recommendation that U.S. courts "consider and respect the data protection and privacy laws of any foreign sovereign, and the interests of any person who is subject to or benefits from such laws, with regard to data that is subject to preservation, disclosure, or discovery." The ABA recognized that "permitting broad discovery in disregard or even defiance of foreign protective legislation can ultimately impede global commerce, harm the interests of U.S. parties in foreign courts and provoke retaliatory measures." Although the resolution is not binding on U.S. courts, if U.S. courts continue to favor broad discovery in violation of EU restrictions, U.S. litigants may face a similar disregard of U.S. laws and regulations to the detriment of U.S. litigants in foreign courts.

FLUSHING, NY - Christ the King had just come off a grueling two state, two game set that ended with a 38 point nationally televised loss to Mater Dei on Monday. The Royals then had to return to New York and play a seasoned Holy Cross Knights for first place in their division. Could they rise to the challenge?
A tough 64-60 win over the Knights fueled by a 32 point performance by Omar Calhoun would answer that question.
"We never played a road trip like that from Missouri to Massachusetts and then back to New York to play another game," said Calhoun. "Definitely a lot of fatigue in us but we had to battle it out and come up with this win."
The UConn bound senior said used the three State, three game bonanza as learning experience for his upcoming college career. "You gotta take care of your body. Make sure you fuel up," said Calhoun who also said he had to learn to account for jet-lag.
It would be a hostile environment in the Knights gymnasium and Holy Cross set the stage early as Mairega Clarke (17 points) nailed a three to get the crowd jumping. To make matters worse, CTK big man Jordan Fuchs would take an awkward tumble in the first quarter after attempting a put-back dunk and would be out for the game.
"[Fuchs] wanted to get back in the game," said Royals head coach Joe Arbitello. "The trainer told me we could bring him back and use him but I'm also the Athletic Director at Christ the King and sometimes being the Athletic Director has to take precedence. Arbitello said believed that Fuchs was going to be the X-factor but after he was told that the forward's neck and back were hurting, he opted to keep Fuchs out for the remainder of the game.
Holy Cross kept the pressure on as buckets by Anthony Libroia (14 points) and Will Davis(20 points) gave them a 16-9 lead to begin the second quarter.
The Knights were running their sets like clockwork and with 2:55 were comfortably ahead 25-19 but a put-back by Marthely Senat (4 points & 8 rebounds) would spark a 9-0 run as Calhoun began to amass points. Scoring in a variety of ways, the talented senior drew a foul with 1:16 to give the Royals their first lead and another foul to extend that lead to 28-25 as the teams went into locker room.
Calhoun, who is considered one of the top players in NYC, can score in a variety of ways including the use of a quick release or by drawing fouls and shooting a high percentage from the line. His offensive prowess has drawn the ire of naysayers who claim he is over rated. "A lot of teams try to stop me in different ways, " said Calhoun. "[I] let my game speak and the record show."
Calhoun scored 14 of his 32 points in the first half but Holy Cross came out fired up at the top of the second half as Libroia, Davis and Marquise Moore(4 points) participated in a 10-0 run that regained the lead for the Knights.
Calhoun went into overdrive as he and teammate Isaiah Lewis (12 points) took advantage of a defensive lapse by the Knights. In addition, when Libroia, Holy Cross's primary playmaker was forced to the bench with his fourth foul, the Royals capitalized and tied the game at 37.
With 1:20 left in the third, 6'9" sophomore Adonis Delarosa (4 points & 6 rebounds) and Calhoun extended the lead to 4 point to begin the final quarter.
Throughout most the fourth quarter, the Knights could do no better than to exchange baskets with the Royals and with a minute left to play were still down by 3 points. Forced to foul, Holy Cross could only hope that CTK was miss from the charity stripe and Calhoun would put the game away from the charity stripe.
"This was a big game. Trying to get that first seed in the Brooklyn/Queens," Calhoun said. "We had to come out here a show a lot of heart and toughness to get this win,"
Arbitello compared the loss to Mater Dei with the win against Holy Cross. "There was no time for let downs against [nationally ranked] Mater Dei," he said. "You had to play hard for 32 minutes there and you had to not make mistakes in order to be close to beating them. Here, we were able to make a couple of mistakes and maybe not be hundred percent. Mater Dei is a great team."
With Tuesday's win, the Royals take first place in their CHSAA division with a 4-0 record (10-5 overall). Calhoun filled up the stat sheet with more than just points, contributing 7 rebounds, three assists, and one block while only committing two turnovers.
"[Calhoun's] record speaks for itself," said Arbitello. "He's the most winning-ist player in Christ the King history. He's gonna be the all-time leading scorer. He has a state championship; the first one in 22 years. He has three back-to-back-to-back Brooklyn/Queens championships in the CHSAA. So anybody that's taking shots at him are either jealous that they're not him or jealous that they're not playing at Christ the King and that's all I'm gonna say."

Erectile Dysfunction (ED)
19 and testicals haven`t dropped
I have a friend who is 19 years old and his testicles haven`t dropped yet. He is scared to go to the doctor. Are there any pills to take or what advice can I give him to help him? What would it help him with if he got his problem fixed (besides sexually).
It is important for your friend to be examined by a urologist. If the testicles are truly undescended, this would be important to be addressed as there is a slightly higher incidence of a tumor developing in an undescended testicle.

Indiana shouldn't fear making midseason deal
Chances are, the Indiana Pacers will play it safe now. Stay with the program. Allow the Thursday trade deadline to come and go without making the slightest bit of noise.
And why not? Throw out Tuesday night's aberration against New Orleans, a dreadful performance that ranks among the Pacers' worst of the season. All season, they've beaten good teams. They've beaten Western Conference teams. And despite Ron Artest's poorly timed little misadventure -- gee, you think that might fuel some new Pacers second-half meltdown stories? -- they're still a more mature team than the one that stood here a year ago.
Still, something compels me to wonder if this isn't the perfect time for the Pacers to contemplate a deal if the right one comes along -- one that involves either a big-time point guard or another oversized body to shore up the front line.
(A shooter would be nice, too, but nobody in this league can shoot anymore. Except Peja Stojakovic.)
"A lot of teams are reluctant to change their chemistry, tinker too much for fear it could disrupt things," Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said Tuesday afternoon. "But every once in a while, maybe every eight to 10 years, you see the kinds of trades that made a decisive difference in teams winning championships."
Why not here? And now? Sometimes, great rewards require great risks.
Nobody is loony enough to scream that the Pacers absolutely, positively need to make a deal this week to have any chance of reaching the NBA Finals. There's no reason to jump from the bridge after an effort that suggested most of the team was still enjoying the All-Star break. Artest, in particular, spent the first half in his own private Laguna Beach.
But it would be nonsensical to rule out the very concept of a change because the braintrust doesn't dare mess with this heavenly chemistry.
Nobody understands that better than Carlisle, who would be surprised, but not completely dismayed, if his team received a late-season facelift.
He was with the Celtics when the Lakers acquired Mychal Thompson midway through the 1986-87 season. Thompson's big body helped the Lakers compete against Boston's towering front line and win the title.
Carlisle was an assistant coach in Portland when the Blazers dealt Clyde Drexler to the Houston Rockets, who went on to win the 1993-94 title over the Knicks.
Carlisle isn't pushing Donnie Walsh and Larry Bird to make any big deals right now. But he's not completely averse to the idea, either.
"I wouldn't be aghast if we made a trade now," Carlisle said. "But knowing how long it takes to get these things done, I would be shocked if anything major happened."
He wouldn't be alone. Walsh doesn't make midseason deals very often, and he never makes them when his team is playing exceedingly well. Does the equation change with Bird in the picture? Hard to say.
Walsh wasn't ruling anything out Tuesday, but he's not inclined to alter his long-held philosophy. "I've always felt the best time to make deals are in the summer," he said.
The Pacers have other constraints. For one, their most tradable guys are base-year compensation players, which means the Pacers couldn't command equal value. And the guy most teams want, Al Harrington, isn't on the market.
But it's not something that should be ruled out simply because the Pacers have emerged as the best team in the Eastern Conference.
They still have needs. Not the kinds of glaring needs that guarantee another early playoff exit. But the kinds of needs that were on grisly display Tuesday night.
They could use a shooter. (Did he just say Brent Barry?)
They could use another big man. The Hornets, one of the league's biggest, most physical teams, pushed the Pacers around their home floor.
And -- yes, here we go again -- they still need a major upgrade at point guard, especially if they want to get out of a conference that features Stephon Marbury, Allen Iverson, Jason Kidd and Baron Davis. Jamaal Tinsley has been one of the season's best stories, but he still hasn't shown up for a Pacers' postseason series.
"If there's something out there that's obviously a good deal, we'll look at it," Walsh said. "But we're going to be real careful about it."
A trade isn't likely now. It's not even semi-likely now. But a trade shouldn't be completely out of the question, either.
Very interesting quote from Carlisle. "I wouldn't be aghast if we made a trade now," Carlisle said. "But knowing how long it takes to get these things done, I would be shocked if anything major happened."
Reading between the lines here.
Point one, Carlisle talks with Bird, so if he, Carlisle, wouldn't be aghast at a trade it would seem Bird isn't completely happy with the team, and would make a mid-season move. However, Carlisle doesn't expect a major trade.
Point two, teams usually hold a player out if they are going to be traded. Everyone played who was available last night, so it seems nothing is imminent.

I just got these and took them on a quick jog. These are really nice. I'm used to Asia Onituska Tigers and these are more and a lot lighter. They seem to grip really well with the Vibram sole. I am concerned with the lugs coming off durring round use.

U.S. corn futures dropped for a third straight session on Tuesday because of sluggish demand and expectations for wetter weather in world No. 3 exporter Argentina.
Soybean prices rebounded from an earlier profit-taking slump on technical buying and some concerns that the still-developing South American crop may shrink further if the weather worsens. Wheat dropped for a fourth consecutive day and hit a 3-1/2 week low on forecasts for rain in the drought-parched U.S. Plains.
Some investors were beginning to take positions ahead of Friday's U.S. Department of Agriculture monthly supply and demand reports, which were expected to show tighter U.S. and global soybean stocks and a larger U.S. corn supply.
"The closer we get to Friday's USDA report I think we'll see some more positioning and profit-taking and settle into a little more of a range," said Dax Wedemeyer, a broker for U.S. Commodities.
Wedemeyer said that the Argentina forecast looks a little wetter in the next six to 15 days, "but confidence is kind of low because rains in these areas have been less than expected in the last two weeks." Argentina is the world's No. 3 soybean and corn exporter after the United States and Brazil. Consumer nations are hoping it can provide ample supplies of both crops to bolster world food stocks.
Wedemeyer said that for soybeans "there's still a lot of unknowns as far as how much of the crop in Argentina has been affected by the recent dry weather."
Chicago Board of Trade March soybeans rose 6-3/4 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $14.95-1/2 per bushel after touching a seven-week high of $14.98 on Monday but failing to breach chart resistance at $15 per bushel.
CBOT March corn fell 5-1/4 cents, or 0.7 percent, to $7.29 per bushel. The contract found underlying support at the 50-day moving average of $7.23-1/4 and overhead resistance at the 100-day moving average of $7.35-1/4.
Spot corn has also struggled to breach the $7.50-per-bushel mark as high prices have pared demand from both exporters and ethanol makers. Several ethanol plants have been shuttered in recent weeks, most recently an Ag Processing Inc plant in Hastings, Nebraska.
The USDA was expected to raise its U.S. corn ending stocks forecast in a Friday report due to lower demand from the ethanol industry and weak corn exports, which are forecast to fall to a 41-year low in the current marketing year.
However, soybean stocks, both in the United States and globally, were expected to show a decline in Friday's report due to reduced South American production and resilient demand for U.S. soybeans.
Some minor relief from the drought in the U.S. Plains hard red winter wheat region was expected by the weekend with rain and snow likely over a broad swath of the crop belt, an agricultural meteorologist said on Tuesday.
Commodity Weather Group meteorologist Joel Widenor said a weekend storm will bring from 0.25 inch to 1.00 inch of moisture from northeast Colorado and northern Kansas into Iowa and Wisconsin.
An unexpected drop in year-on-year Canadian wheat stocks in a Statistics Canada report on Tuesday helped to limit the market's decline.
News that Russia's government backs a plan to suspend a grain import duty had little impact on the market. Operators were waiting to see when the measure would be implemented and what import volumes it could trigger.
Potential suppliers could include Europe, South America and the United States.
CBOT March wheat fell 5-1/2 cents, or 0.7 percent, to $7.57-1/2 a bushel.
Commodity funds bought an estimated net 4,000 soybean contracts on the day and sold a net 6,000 corn and 3,000 wheat contracts, trade sources said.

On Sunday (March 30) she completed a four-hour bag pack in Sainsbury's in Badger Farm to boost funds, and raised £87.30 towards the £1,000 needed, bringing her current total to approximately £600.
The trip, which is run in conjunction with charity Thrive Africa, will see Rachel fly to Accra, before travelling to both Kumasi in the south and Bolgatanga in the north to work on library building, disaster prevention, orphanage development and general welfare.
The second year student has said that although she is nervous, she is looking forward to the challenge ahead.
"Since beginning university I've been attempting to make the most of my opportunities, and whilst I feel academically I am doing as much as I can to enhance my future career, I believe the chance to contribute to the amenities of another country will be a truly rewarding experience," she said.
"I have decided to challenge myself to go to Ghana because I believe it's an experience that few people have in their lifetime, and the projects I will be working on will make a long-term positive impact."
To sponsor Rachel go to thriveafrica.co.uk/fundraising-page/?id=437.

Topic: Latest on my dad
It has been a while since I posted, but I wanted to give an update. Dad completed his first round of chemo. He went once a week every other week, for a total of 4 chemo sessions. Dad always felt better after receiving chemo. He went back to MDA to get an update. They found that his tumors had all decreased except for 2 in his liver. I think they were actually a little bigger. They also found a new tumor on his spine. Good news was that his blood clots were gone too. After dad was given a hearing test from his audiologist he got the ok to continue chemo, which will be this Wednesday. Dad has still continued to lose weight. He has now lost 90 pounds since August. His main problem is not being able to eat. He said everything tastes like paper & he can't eat more than a couple of bites. I'm extremely worried about his lack of nutrition & calorie intake. He has zero energy and mentioned he doesn't even feel human anymore. It's devastating & heartbreaking to see him in this state. Before his diagnosis he was just so active & full of life. Any suggestions on him conquering these eating battles would be wonderful. Thank you all.

Age UK has issued warnings after an elderly Trowbridge couple were conned out of £78,000 in a phone call scam.
The couple, who are in their 80s, lost their life savings when someone claiming to be from their bank rang telling them they should contact the Metropolitan Police as their money was at risk.
After hanging up the phone they tried contacting the Met, but the original caller had remained on the line, and they then believed they were talking to a police officer, who told them to transfer the cash to an account 'to keep it safe'.
After they did so, the couple heard nothing for several days and contacted the Met, who are now investigating the incident with Wiltshire Police.
Brian Deeley, Age UK Wiltshire's chief executive, has urged people to watch out for fraudsters.
Mr Deeley said: "If you are contacted by someone who says they are from your bank never give out your account number or pin number as they should have those details already. End the call as quickly as possible and then find the number for your local branch.
"Never automatically redial. You might feel a little daft ringing and speaking to the same person, but it is better to be safe than sorry. If you get texts or emails asking for account details, delete them."
Action Fraud has taken up the case and is working with the victims' bank to see if they can get their money back.
The couple said: "It was a lot of money that we have worked hard all our lives to get. It was not money that we had to spare, it was our security for our future, it was set aside to help us should one of us need care or even surgery as we get older. It's absolutely wicked what these people have done."
Mr Deeley described the fraud as disgusting and stressed no matter how embarrassed or upset victims of fraud may feel, they should report the matter to the police.
He said: "It is very easy to be taken in. There is support available for victims through the local authorities, ourselves and Trading Standards amongst others."

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - There's really only one way that Maryland can defeat No. 10 Florida State on Saturday and prevent the Seminoles from clinching a berth in the Atlantic Coast Conference title game.
Terrapins coach Randy Edsall says, "If we want to have a chance to win, we've got to play a perfect game and get turnovers against them."
Especially with a linebacker at quarterback and several key players sidelined with injuries.
Problem is, Maryland (4-6, 2-4) hasn't been anything close to flawless during a four-game losing streak in which it has been outscored 118-58. True freshman Shawn Petty is playing quarterback for the Terps, who have lost four QBs to season-ending injuries.
Florida State (9-1, 6-1) is a 31-point favorite, but coach Jimbo Fisher insists his players are taking nothing for granted.

From apple and cherry pies to trendy mini-meat creations, "Pies: Sweet and Savory" provides everything needed to produce tasty creations. There is an overview describing types of pies with a wonderful visual index. The index is broken down by top-crust pies, double-crust pies, cobblers and crumbles, individual pies and tarts, quiches and savory tarts, sweet tarts, layered pies and potato-topped pies. The photographs of the finished items seem to jump out of the page screaming, "eat me, eat me!"
Each recipe starts with an introduction, following with portion size, preparation and cooking time. I wanted to test one recipe from each of the categories. I did find some inconsistencies; for example, chicken and sweet corn pie had too much broth. The crust of the asparagus cream cheese quiche called for lard, which I wanted to avoid, so I used my own whole wheat crust. The recipe did not state that the pie shell needed to be baked before to adding the filling.
Just before St. Patrick's Day, we invited friends for a testing dinner. They prepared the blueberry cream cheese tart; the dough was difficult to work with and the filling was too much for the tart pan. I served the French beef and herb potato pie; the green mashed potato crust was perfect for St. Patrick's Day.
Overall, this is a good, comprehensive book. It may well lead to a pie addiction!
Broccoli, tomato and mozzarella galettes
Serves 4
Prep time: 20 minutes; cook: 35 minutes
For the filling:
6 ounces broccoli, cut in florets
3½ ounces mozzarella, grated
6 sun-dried tomatoes in oil, drained and finely chopped
6 tablespoons crème fraiche plus extra for brushing
Salt and pepper to taste
For the pastry:
13 ounces sheet store-bought puff pastry
Cook the broccoli in a saucepan of boiling water, lightly salted water for 2 minutes, until almost tender. Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Sprinkle a little water over the baking sheet to dampen.
Place the broccoli florets in a large bowl, add the mozzarella, tomatoes and crème fraiche. Season with salt and pepper and stir well to combine.
Cut the pastry into quarters. Pile one quarter of the filling at one end of each oblong, leaving a border. Then brush the pastry edges with water. Fold over the uncovered halves of pastry, press the edges together to seal, and transfer to the dampened baking sheet. Make a few slashes in the tops and brush some crème fraiche over the top for glaze. Bake for 30 minutes, until puffy, crisp and golden.
Note: I rolled the pastry dough out just a little so it would not be thick. I would try this again substituting whole milk for the crème fraiche.
French beef and herb potato pie
Serves 6
For the filling:
4 garlic cloves, peeled
1/3 cup olive oil, plus extra for greasing
1 large onion, diced
2¼ pound ground beef
14-ounce can chopped tomatoes
1 cup beef stock
½ cup dry white wine
For the topping:
2¼ pound potatoes, peeled and cut into 2 to 3 pieces
1 bunch of basil, leaves only
1 bunch parsley, leaves only
1 cup milk plus extra if needed
Finely chop 2 garlic cloves. Heat one-third of the olive oil in a sauté pan or frying pan. Add the onion and cook for to 5 minutes, stirring until soft but not brown. Add the chopped garlic, ground beef, salt and pepper and tomatoes. Reduce the heat and cook gently, stirring occasionally for 10 to 12 minutes, until the meat is brown. Stir in the stock and wine. Simmer over very low heat for 25 to 30 minutes, until most of the liquid has been evaporated. Do not cook the meat too fast or it will be tough. To make the topping: place the potatoes in a saucepan with plenty of cold water and add salt. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, until tender when pierced with a knife. Pulse the basil, parsley leaves and the rest of the garlic with the remaining oil in a food processor to form a puree.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pan and mash. Add the herb puree. Warm the milk in a small saucepan or microwave slightly. Gradually beat the milk into the potatoes over medium heat, and stir for 2 to 3 minutes, until the potatoes just hold a shape.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease the baking dish with oil. Taste the meat for seasoning and, then spoon it, with any of its liquid, into the dish. Spoon an even layer of potatoes over the filling and smooth the top with the back of a spoon. Bake until the top is golden brown and the edges are bubbling. It should take about 35 to 40 minutes. Cut the pie in 6 portions and serve.
Note: I drained some of the grease from the meat before adding the stock and wine. I warmed the milk for the potatoes in the microwave for 20 to 30 seconds. Prep time is about 60 minutes if you prepare both the potatoes and the meat at the same time

Both ESPN and Turner Sports declined to enter negotiations to continue broadcasting NASCAR races before NASCAR signed its new deal with NBC, the SportsBusiness Journal reported.
ESPN and Turner both had an exclusive negotiating window through July 14 to bid on NASCAR's broadcast rights and the next TV contract. But according to SBJ, both ESPN and Turner informed NASCAR before the deadline that it would not bid on the next TV contract.
ESPN currently broadcasts the final 17 Sprint Cup races of the season as well as the full Nationwide Series schedule. Turner's TNT has six summer Sprint Cup races. NASCAR announced last week that the two networks would be replaced by NBC, which signed a 10-year deal to broadcast 20 Sprint Cup and 19 Nationwide races a year, beginning in 2015.
MORE: NBC's deal | Stewart sprint car crash | New Hendrick GM | Why passing is key
According to SBJ, TNT considered expanding its six-race schedule but in the middle of its lowest-rated NASCAR season in 29 years, ultimately decided that adding NASCAR races and continuing to cover the sport was not worth the investment.
NASCAR had hoped that ESPN would sign a new contract that would include at least a 30 percent fee increase over its current $270 million a year deal. But according to SBJ, ESPN has soured on the sport because of declining TV ratings, an aging fan base and a tough advertising market. It, too, informed NASCAR that it would not be negotiating for a new deal.
According to SBJ, ESPN's viewership for NASCAR races declined from an average of more than 6 million viewers per race in 2007 to about 4.3 in 2012.
With ESPN and Turner out, NASCAR then turned its attention to NBC, which was eager to return to the sport to add programming for its new NBC Sports Network. NBC signed a 10-year, $4.4 billion deal, which includes more than half the Sprint Cup schedule, 19 Nationwide races, other live events and other ancillary programming.
"We think this is a major feather in our cap for our total business," NBC Sports Chairman Mark Lazarus said. "The importance to distributors and affiliates is a very strong business factor for us. … NASCAR is a major passion point for fans, and we're there to serve all markets. I had to sell the value of NASCAR to my bosses. The NASCAR footprint made the sale easy. NASCAR's audience is truly all over the country."
According to SBJ, the deal with NBC, which will pay about $440 million annually, represents a 54 percent increase over the $285 million that ESPN and Turner together currently pay. Fox signed a new deal late last year for eight years and $300 million, beginning in 2015. Though NASCAR still has three Cup races and 14 Nationwide races to sell, the new deal is expected to exceed $740 million annually.
TV revenue is split between the tracks, teams and NASCAR.
"We wouldn't have made the change if it weren't a favorable arrangement for the industry financially," NASCAR Chairman Brian France said. "And it is, and everybody will benefit from that, as every league does."

Nationals select RHP Taylor Hill from Triple-A Syracuse
The Washington Nationals today selected the contract of right-handed pitcher Taylor Hill from Syracuse of the Triple-A International League and designated first baseman/third baseman Greg Dobbs for assignment. Additionally, infielder/outfielder Jeff Kobernus was returned from rehab, reinstated from the 60-day Disabled List and optioned to Triple-A Syracuse, while right-hander Christian Garcia was released. Nationals President of Baseball Operations and General Manager Mike Rizzo made the announcements.
Hill, 25, is 9-2 with a 1.92 in 15 games (14 starts) for Syracuse this season, tossing three complete games, one shutout and picking up one save. The 6-foot-3 right-hander has posted a 7.22 strikeout/walk ratio (65 SO/8 BB), the second-highest mark of his career.
A sixth-round selection of the Nationals in the 2011 First-Year Player Draft, Hill is currently leading the International League in innings pitched (93.2 IP), is tied for first in ERA (1.92) and ranks second in WHIP (0.99).
Hill was named the International League Pitcher of the Week on May 26 of this year after he tossed 11 shutout innings, pitching four innings in relief and earning a save against Columbus on May 19, and following it up with seven scoreless innings in a start against Pawtucket on May 24.
Dobbs, 35, was 6-for-28 (.214) with one double and two RBI in 21 games (3 games started) for the Nationals.
Kobernus, 25, went 15-for-55 (.273) in 15 Minor League rehab games, spanning from Single-A Hagerstown to Triple-A Syracuse. He rejoins Syracuse's active roster for the first time since going on the Disabled List with a fractured left hand on April 12.
Garcia, 28, posted a 2.13 ERA in 13 Major League games with the Nationals in 2012. He was 1-1 with a 2.45 ERA in 10 games (14.2 IP) with Triple-A Syracuse this season.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- A two-syllable word cracked the silence over the school playground, shouted by the first student to dash out of the school doors at recess.
Each syllable was drawn out as 10-year-old Addi Holcomb yelled "gaga," the name of a dodgeball-like game played in a low-walled enclosure called a "pit" that was the finish line of her dash at Edison Intermediate Middle School in Grandview Heights.
Lines of as many as 50 students waiting to play the game wrapped around the pit for the next hour. Gaga -- Hebrew for "touch touch" -- has long been a staple at Jewish summer camps but has spread to schools and secular camps nationwide.
"It's really kind of taken over the camp world by storm," said Brad McCain, the associate executive director of the Jerry L. Garver YMCA in Canal Winchester. "It's spilled over to schools and also filtered across the U.S."
Students who played it at a summer camp brought it to Edison, and parents built the wood-walled, octagonal pit last month. It's so popular that the pit is reserved for certain grades on different days.
The object of the game is to swat a ball out of the air and hit another player with it below the waist, eliminating that player. Ten children play at a time at Edison, but the game can accommodate dozens. It's fast, but action stays low to the ground as the ball ricochets off the walls, which fans say makes the game safer than traditional dodgeball.
However, a national group of physical-education experts denounces the game as dangerous. Schools have reported to the National Association for Sport and Physical Education that children have suffered head injuries and been bullied while playing.
"We call it the 'bully pit,'" said Sheila Jones, physical-education supervisor in Loudoun County schools in Virginia, a district of more than 66,000 students. At one school, she said, the game has led to eight head injuries in a year. "It's very physical. Kids get hit, fall backwards; they get hit in the face."
Local school and camp leaders said that doesn't sound like the game they play. At Edison, students are competitive, but even those who quickly were eliminated were eager to get back in the fray.
Players who knock the ball over the low wall are out, which McCain said deters head hits. And teachers at Edison modified the rules so that players rotate in when someone is eliminated so that more can play.
"You don't really have to be good at sports to be good at the game," said Tyler Gardner, 12, a seventh-grade student at Edison.
Companies that sell parts and instructions for pits say they receive hundreds of orders a year, and business has boomed in recent years. But the game isn't new.
"I've had people who said they played since they were kids in the '70s," said Cliff Silverman of Coach Cliff's Gaga Ball Pits in Waukegon, Ill. "I've heard that it started somewhere in the '50s."
Leaders at Camp Wise, a Jewish summer camp near Cleveland, say lore has it that a man visiting Israel saw a handball game, tweaked it and took the result to a camp in Australia before a similar version ended up in U.S. camps.
"I can't remember a time that we didn't play gaga," said Rachel Felber, the assistant director of Camp Wise.
Summer residents at Camp Hoover, a local Jewish camp, flocked to gaga last year, playing with makeshift barriers or none at all. Next summer, leaders plan to meet growing demand for the game with a new pit.
"It's catching on," said Mark Moscardino, camp director. "Every other Jewish summer camp has one. I decided Camp Hoover needs one, too."

This quality skincare line, which has been highly sought after by celebrities and beauty editors in Hollywood for years, addresses many skin care issues and allows individuals to effortlessly complete their skincare schedule using an easy-to-follow routine.
When developing a new product, Ole Henriksen considers how the product interacts with the skin. He then combines the new formulation, which typically includes exotic and effectual ingredients, with the current portfolio of soothing, hydrating, retexturizing and renewing ingredients already used in the Ole Henriksen line of skincare products. Ole Henriksen combines four elements into every one of his products: nature, science, beauty and wellness. These elements allow Ole Henriksen to make a "total lifestyle line" that clearly reflects the man behind the Ole Henriksen brand. Read More about Ole Henriksen.
Ole Henriksen truth serum is used for the signs and symptoms of anti-aging caused by continuous exposure to the harsh sun's UVA rays and UVB radiation that have been clinically proven to link to skin damage from premature aging. Signs of aging and photo-damage from the sun include age spots, fine lines and wrinkles, loss of elasticity of the skin, redness, a look of sallowness, and hyper-pigmentation or discoloration of the skin. The Ole Henriksen truth serum collagen booster is specifically formulated to boost the skin to help smooth out lines, wrinkles, and other premature aging caused by the damaging effects of the skin. It also prevents further damage.
Ole Henriksen truth serum's main ingredients use a high powered Vitamin C complex, collagen, and anti-oxidants to fight the damages caused by environmental factors. It also uses moisture-binding ingredients to moisturize, hydrate, nourish, and protect your skin from the signs of premature aging. Ole Henriksen truth serum collagen booster is a weightless formula that is aromatic that is instantly absorbs and penetrates your skin to the deeper layers of the skin where it starts to correct and prevent anti-aging signs and symptoms that will have long term results. The user should start to use the Ole Henriksen truth serum in a daily and continuous manner for the full and maximum results. It is designed specifically for sensitive skin that is prone to irritation, inflammation, and redness. People of all skin types can use this serum. The serum provides a very calming, soothing effect to the skin.
What the user can expect from using Ole Henriksen truth serum collagen booster is a reduction of fine lines, wrinkles, puffiness, inflammation, and redness caused by premature aging due to the harsh sun. The serum will brighten your skin, even out the tone, and will protect your skin against environmental and free radical damage. Your skin will feel and look younger when used daily. A regular regimen, used daily and consistently will improve the quality, tone, texture, look of your skin to make your skin look brighter, clearer, healthier, and smoother.
If you want to know where to go for any skin care product, look no further! DrSkinSpa is the ultimate in websites because it not only provides you with quality products, but they also stand behind their products with a customer service representative like Rachel who will get the job done and was so understanding with a mix up in an order that turned out to be my fault! But she sent me some samples anyway!

|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Observational Model: Case-Only
Time Perspective: Prospective
|Official Title:
|A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Clinical Performance of the SEQureDx Trisomy 21 Test in the Detection of the Relative Quantity of Chromosome 21 in Circulating Cell-Free DNA Extracted From a Maternal Blood Sample Obtained From Pregnant Women With One or More High Risk Indicators for Fetal Chromosome 21 Aneuploidy

Further study details as provided by Sequenom, Inc.:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Clinical Assay Performance [ Time Frame: Performance of the assay will be based upon a single blood sample collected during the only study visit from a high risk pregnancy prior to the subject undergoing an invasive procedure (amniocentesis or CVS) to confirm fetal karyotype. ]Each subject will provide a single blood sample prior to undergoing an amniocentesis/CVS that will be processed to plasma and stored frozen until the end of the study. Frozen plasma samples will then be analyzed using the SEQureDx Trisomy Test and the sensitivity and specificity of the assay will be determined by comparing the plasma test results to the fetal karyotyping results obtained via aminiocentesis or CVS. A subject's participation ends after the results of the fetal karyotype are obtained and recorded.
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Subject selection bias assessment [ Time Frame: A single blood sample will be collected at a single clinic visit from high risk pregnancies that refuse to undergo an invasive procedure. ]All subjects that enter the study are at high risk for fetal aneuploidy. However, sensitivity and specificity of the assay will be based upon those subjects that have a confirmed fetal karyotype obtained by amniocentesis/CVS. Subject selection bias assessment will be done by comparing SEQureDx Trisomy T21 Test results between women who agree to undergo an invasive procedure to obtain fetal karyotype and women who elect not to undergo an invasive procedure.
Biospecimen Retention: Samples With DNA
Whole blood specimens will be collected and processed to plasma. DNA will be extracted from the plasma.

Keep kids learning
Worried your kid forgets everything they've learnt when not at school? Here's how to keep their brain sharp. more
Your child has been diagnosed with ADHD, and now you have to decide on a treatment plan. What are your options?
The three main ways of treating ADHD in children are:
It's important for you to choose a management plan or plan based on sound professional advice and what suits your child and family. Management plans should consider all aspects of your child's life - your child's needs and responsibilities at home, at school and in other social settings.
This treatment may be recommended if the ADHD symptoms are mild and causing minimal impairment, if the diagnosis of ADHD is uncertain, your child is intolerant to medication, or if you are reluctant to have your child put on medication.The Living with ADHD website says: "Behavioural techniques are very important in the on-going management of ADHD. Due to the disruptive nature of the condition, behavioural techniques can aid the patient and those surrounding them to reduce the impact of ADHD on functioning, socialisation and learning."
Experts remain unclear on how exactly the drugs work but it is believed that ADHD is caused by either a lower level, or an imbalance, of brain chemicals called neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters communicate with one another all day long, and regulate a person's attention, organisation and decision-making.
It is thought that ADHD medications restore the balance, or level, of these neurotransmitters, leading to many behavioural and academic improvements.

The same whole wheat pita I use for this is also great to cut into triangles, crisp in the oven a little, and use instead of chips for any kind of dip or hummus, for another easy and healthy snack or lunch.
Vege-Sal for avocado.)
Spicy Avocado in Pita
(Makes 2 servings, Kalyn created this for lunch one day in 2006, and she's been making it ever since!)
1 very ripe avocado
1/4 tsp. spicy chile powder (or more, I used Penzeys ground Chipotle, but any spicy chile powder would work here)Vege-sal (or use plain salt, but the Vege-sal adds a lot of flavor)
2 100% whole wheat pita pockets (Kangaroo brand Whole Wheat Pockets or Flatout 5 Grain Flax Foldits preferred)
(2 pita pockets would be one piece of pita bread if you can't find the pockets)
Remove peel and seed from avocado and mash thoroughly with a fork. Season avocado with chile powder and Vege-sal or salt, and stir until it is quite creamy looking. Spread 1/2 avocado mixture inside each pita pocket, top with a generous amount of shredded lettuce, and eat.
South Beach Suggestions:
One thing I love about the South Beach Diet is the concept of *good fats* whereby something like avocado becomes a treat you can enjoy. One of these pita pockets with avocado would make a great lunch for me. If you wanted a more substantial lunch, add a lowfat choice like Wake Up Your Mouth Thai Cucumber Salad.

The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago and the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis each issued updates on farmland values in the third quarter.
The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago said Midwest farmland values were up from last year, but little had changed for the quarter.
On a year-over-year basis, farmland values in the Seventh Federal Reserve District gained 14 percent in the third quarter of 2013. However, the return of drought seemed to temper the year-over-year gain in Iowa farmland values. There was a 1 percent increase in "good" agricultural land values in the third quarter relative to the second quarter of 2013, according to the 195 agricultural bankers that provided responses for the October 1 survey. While District farmland values increased on the whole in the third quarter of 2013, this upward trend was not expected to continue: The respondents' expectations leaned toward a decrease in farmland values in the fourth quarter of 2013, as only 4 percent anticipated an increase and 21 percent forecasted a decrease (75 percent foresaw stable farmland values). In the third quarter of 2013, agricultural credit conditions, by and large, saw improvement from a year ago.
But this improvement narrowed from those seen in recent quarters for the District. There was less financial stress, as repayment rates for non-real-estate farm loans were higher and as loan renewals and extensions were lower in the third quarter of 2013 relative to the same quarter last year.
Moreover, funds availability was higher than in the third quarter of 2012. And demand for non-real-estate loans was lower compared with a year ago. These last two factors contributed to the average loan-to-deposit ratio for the District (66.9 percent) being lower than what had been recorded a year earlier. The average interest rate on farm operating loans was unchanged in the third quarter of 2013, while the average interest rate on farm real estate loans edged up.
St. Louis Fed Ag Survey Results
Farmland values and cash rents were down in the third quarter of 2013 (relative to the previous quarter), according to the latest Agricultural Finance Monitor, published by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis. Despite these declines, farm income rose modestly across the District served by the Bank.
The survey for the report was conducted Sept. 11 through Sept. 30, 2013. The results are based on the responses from 47 agricultural banks within the boundaries of the Eighth Federal Reserve District. The District comprises all or parts of the following seven Midwestern and MidSouth states: Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri and Tennessee.
Because these initial data are not adjusted for any seasonal irregularities (should they exist), users are cautioned to interpret the results carefully. In particular, users are cautioned against drawing firm conclusions about longer-run trends in farmland values and agricultural lending conditions. Likewise, because the number of responses from each of the four zones in the District has been relatively small, entailing a higher-than-normal margin of error, we have decided to discontinue publishing zone-by-zone results. The results now refer to the entire Eighth District.

New Look for Fairfax County Web Site
Office of Public Affairs
12000 Government Center Parkway, Suite 551
Fairfax, VA 22035-0065
March 20, 2003
New Look for Fairfax County Web Site
Visitors to the Fairfax County Web site will see a new and improved look to the home page, starting today. The new design features a news section, links to local weather, the commonwealth of Virginia Web site and the federal government Web site. Other improvements to the home page include rearranging the information categories and prominent location of the county's Web privacy policy statement. These improvements are in response to feedback from our constituents about their experience in using the site and opportunities for improvements.
"Citizen feedback is a central part of the county Web site,"
said Fairfax County Chief Information Officer David J. Molchany.
"Beginning with the first major redesign of the site two years ago,
citizens have helped improve the Web site through focus groups and
general e-mail comments." County staff gathered as much detail as
possible on citizens' information-seeking behavior, which was then
incorporated into the new content structure.
The Web site is part of the county's e-government strategy.
"E-government makes it possible to deliver transactions and
information through multiple channels, such as Web sites, interactive
voice response, kiosks and personal digital assistants," said
Molchany. "This allows the delivery of information and service to
happen when and where it is convenient for the customer, who benefits
from this on-demand service. On-demand government tailored to the needs
of those we serve is the power of e-government."
The county Web site, which was first launched at the 1996 Fairfax Fair,
has 15,000 pages of information and averages over 625,000 visits per
month, 7.5 million visits per year. Users can find information about
county programs and services at the click of a mouse and do business with
Fairfax County 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Some of the many online
transactions available include: applying for a county job, scheduling a
building inspection, applying for a library card, paying taxes, reserving
golf tee-times and submitting a consumer complaint form. In addition,
using online databases, site visitors can look up consumer protection
complaints, check FAIRFAX CONNECTOR route schedules, view aerial ortho
photography of the county, search a historical newspaper index, locate
child care, find real estate assessments or search the Human Services
Resource Guide.
