State-rescued Royal Bank of Scotland says it would cut about 3500 more jobs over the next three years as the group shrinks its investment banking activities as part of a major overhaul.
The lender, which is 82 per cent state-owned, also outlined plans to re-organise its wholesale banking operations into two divisions - Markets and International Banking - and downsize or cease other selected activities.
The company will exit businesses including cash equities, corporate broking, equity capital markets, and mergers and acquisitions.
It will also implement "significant" reductions in its balance sheet, funding requirements and costs.
"RBS has today announced changes to its wholesale banking operations to ensure they continue to deliver against the group's strategy," a statement said on Thursday.
"At this stage we envisage a further net employment reduction over three years of circa 3,500, split between our UK and non-UK locations, in addition to the approximately 2,000 reduction in staff in (investment division) Global Banking & Markets in the second half of 2011."
The latest round of job cuts comes amid media reports that Global Banking and Markets boss John Hourican was due to pick up STG4 million ($A5.98 million) in long-term incentive shares that he was awarded in 2009.
RBS has now slashed around 34,000 jobs since October 2008 when it was rescued by the British taxpayer at the height of the global financial crisis.
The group, under the leadership of then-chief executive Fred Goodwin, was hit at the same time by the disastrous takeover of Dutch giant ABN Amro at the top of the market in 2007.
The latest round of job cuts sparked fresh anger from Unite, Britain's biggest trade union.
"For RBS to cut 3,500 jobs globally is staggering," said Unite official David Fleming.
"Enough is enough. It is a disgrace that, while on a daily basis stories are emerging about the massive bonuses at the top of the bank, increasing numbers of jobs are being cut from amongst the hard-working staff."
The structural overhaul is aimed at moving the bank towards the ring-fencing requirements that were announced by the Independent Commission on Banking and adopted by the government last year.
The ICB recommended that banks should separate their retail and investment divisions to help prevent a repeat of the global financial crisis that triggered massive state bailouts.
"It is clear that, particularly in the wholesale banking arena, significant new pressures have emerged," group chief executive Stephen Hester said in Thursday's statement.
"The changes we are announcing today seek to ensure that RBS is at the front of the pack in pursuing a strategy that reflects the environment we expect to operate in.
"Our goal from these changes is to be more focused for customers, more conservatively funded, more efficient and with better, more stable returns for shareholders overall."
More details will be provided in annual results that are due on February 23. The new plans will begin immediately but may take up to three years to implement.
Britain's financial watchdog said in a key report last month that RBS had almost collapsed due to poor management, particularly over the ill-fated ABN Amro takeover, and also weak regulation.
The Financial Services Authority, seeking to address what went wrong in the run-up to the lender's massive STG45.5 billion ($A68.03 billion) state bailout, said RBS had conducted "inadequate" due diligence into ABN Amro.
The FSA also called for tougher rules to make bankers more accountable for their actions.

Don't Be a Seed Saving Rebel
you'll be able to save Roundup Ready seed when its patent expires in 2015?
true that in the first growing season following patent expiration in 2016, you
will be able to save and plant generic Roundup Ready soybean seed. However,
remember that chances are good this seed will contain other characteristics and
traits still protected by patents. This nixes any seed saving plans you may

production for Pioneer Hi-Bred. Munoz briefed members of the agricultural media
at this week's 2012 Pioneer Media Event in Johnston Iowa.
U.S. regulatory environment allows you (seed companies) to protect germplasm,"
he says. "On top of that, it protects improvements in the expression of native
traits. It could be diseases, it could be insects."
example, varieties that have been improved to carry characteristics like
soybean cyst nematode resistance would be covered by patent protection. Even if
the Roundup Ready patent expires, other patents protected by U.S. laws still
apply, says Munoz.
plans to hire third-party auditors to check fields and make sure farmers are complying
with patent protection, says Munoz. This will follow an extensive educational
effort explaining why patent protection still applies on applicable Pioneer
soybean varieties.
we got closer to post patent (Roundup Ready), we will educate the American
farmer what is in their rights and not within their rights," he says. "There
will be some rebels who test the limits, and we will deal with them on a

educate and explain it so they comply with what the law says."

Super League: Nathan Brown wants Paul Wellens to stay with St Helens
St Helens' Nathan Brown has confirmed he wants veteran Paul Wellens to play on for at least another season.
Last Updated: 22/06/13 1:32pm
The 33-year-old, who made his 450th appearance for the club in Friday's demolition job of the Salford City Reds, is out of contact at the end of the season.
Wellens has played the vast majority of his lengthy career at full-back, although former Huddersfield boss Brown has moved him to scrum-half.
The Australian has been pleased with Wellens' adaptability and does not want to lose his leadership skills ahead of the 2014 Super League campaign.
"He plays on great commitment and effort for the team and good awareness. He is adapting to his new role in the team well," he said in the St Helens Star.
"Ideally I'd like Wello to play on for another year. He provides a lot for us with his leadership.
"We will be losing numbers of experienced players. The people we bring in won't be older players so we'd definitely like him to stay around."

Man arrested at Kenmore West for trespassing
A 36-year-old man was arrested Tuesday afternoon at Kenmore West High School and later made disjointed references to Sandy Hook, the Connecticut elementary school where 26 children and teachers were killed in 2012, Ton of Tonawanda police reported.
After officers arrested Derie O. Mohamed of the City of Tonawanda on criminal trespass charges, he said he had visited Somalia a few years ago, made the reference to "Sandy Hook," and said he "wasn't a terrorist."
Because of those statements, Town of Tonawanda police contacted the FBI and federal agents interviewed him. A law enforcement said Mohamed was not believed to be a threat.
Mohamed had not registered as a visitor to the school but was seen inside by several students, who reported him. He was not armed when police stopped him and made no threats toward students or faculty before or after he was arrested. He is being held in the Erie County Holding Center and is scheduled for a court appearance Feb. 13.

Waiver Wire: Matchups key for short week
With the All Star game condensing the Week 9 slate, our Ed Gauna advises you to play the matchups in his latest look at the waiver wire.
Fantasy Week 9 (Feb. 20-26) will be a short one with the All Star game weekend on tap and most teams will only play two or three games during the scoring period. This will be either good or bad for some owners as an up or down performance could make or break their week, leaving little room for error. Looking at matchups this week could go a long way for winning the scoring period, and also riding the hot hand should pay dividends.
This week we are looking at Gordon Hayward.
Hayward has opened some eyes with his recent play and ended Week 7 (Feb. 6-12) with a career-high 23 points against a tough Memphis squad. That ended a 10-game stretch in which he averaged 12.1 points, 3.3 rebounds and 3.2 assists. While he has struggled to shoot the ball from beyond the arc, the 21-year-old has increased his shooting percentage from inside the line and continues to do a decent job of filling up the stat sheet on a nightly basis. He will face the Spurs at home and Minnesota on the road during Week 9 and should be able to keep his scoring up for a Utah backcourt that has struggled to get points for much of the year. Hayward is gaining value in larger formats so owners might want to scoop him up off waivers. He should only get better as the season goes on.
Add 'Em
Jordan Farmar, Nets
Owned: 29 percent
Analysis: Farmar is having a career campaign in his second season with the Nets and is averaging double-digit points for the first time. He ended Week 7 with a 12-6-7 performance against the Spurs and has been shooting the ball very well of late. He entered Week 8 having averaged 15.6 points with 4.2 assists in his previous five games, all while shooting 50 percent from the field and 46 percent from downtown. Farmar is providing the Nets with some much-needed scoring off the bench and it looks as though that should continue as long as he is seeing his minutes. While he does not contribute much in other categories, consider adding the 25-year-old in deeper Fantasy formats for Week 8.
Arron Afflalo, Nuggets
Owned: 55 percent
Analysis: After missing some time due to sprains to both his ankle and toe, Afflalo has come back with a vengeance and is starting to look like a viable Fantasy option once again. He scored a season-high 26 points on Feb. 9 and followed that up with back-to-back 20-point performances. Affalo struggled to find his shot earlier in the season but appears to be more comfortable with his injuries behind him, and has stepped up his shooting from downtown as well. After a breakout campaign a year ago, the 26-year-old looks primed to get back to that level so owners should definitely consider Afflalo a worthwhile add with the Timberwolves, Clippers and Spurs on the schedule for Week 9.
Avoid 'Em
Jordan Crawford, Wizards
Owned: 30 percent
Analysis: Crawford shined after going from the Hawks to the Wizards a year ago but he has not been as impressive this season. While he began Week 8 with a 21-point performance against Portland, it was his first time scoring in the 20s since Dec. 30, and also came in a game in which Washington scored 124 points. Nick Young, his main competition for playing time, dropped 35 in the same contest so don't expect the 23-year-old to steal minutes from him anytime soon. Based on his inconsistencies thus far, leave Crawford for deeper Fantasy formats heading into Week 9.
Evan Turner, 76ers
Owned: 64 percent
Analysis: Turner has made some impressive strides from his rookie campaign but his recent play has had some owners second-guessing his value in Fantasy. He started Week 8 with a four-point performance against the lowly Bobcats, which was his fifth straight game scoring in single digits. He shot 41 percent over that span -- including a mere 20 percent from 3-point land -- and contributed minimally in other categories. The former No. 2 overall pick is counted on for some scoring off the bench for the 76ers but his inconsistencies have hindered his value. Turner is not yet a lost cause but now is not the time to add him.
Add 'Em
Ersan Ilyasova, Bucks
Owned: 68 percent
Analysis: Ilyasova became a hot add off waivers after his 17-and-16 performance against the Magic to end Week 7, and has stepped up his rebounding this season. He has posted four double-digit rebounding performances so far in February, with two double-doubles over that span. With Andrew Bogut out for the foreseeable future, the 24-year-old should continue to give the Bucks decent boards, and Ilyasova supplies enough scoring to make him valuable in larger Fantasy formats. With games against Orlando and Chicago on tap for Week 8, consider Ilyasova a worthwhile addition.
Corey Maggette, Bobcats
Owned: 62 percent
Analysis: Maggette has returned strong from his hamstring injury and is gaining steam in Fantasy. After missing 19 games, he increased his scoring in each of his first three contests back and capped it off with a 22-point performance to open Week 8. With the way Charlotte has struggled to score thus far, Maggette will have every opportunity to step up and now that he is healthy once again, it bodes well for his Fantasy value going forward. The 32-year-old plays just once during Week 9 -- against the Pacers on Feb. 22 -- but owners might want to grab him off waivers as post-All-Star break might be too late in some leagues.
Avoid 'Em
Reggie Williams, Bobcats
Owned: 36 percent
Analysis: Williams may have fooled owners with his back-to-back 21-point games in early February as he has not been nearly as impressive since then. A lot of that has to do with his shooting struggles, and the fact that Maggette has returned for the Bobcats. The 25-year-old showed in his days with the Warriors that he can put up some decent scoring on a consistent basis but he is not surrounded with nearly as much talent in Charlotte. Williams is shooting well below his career 46 percent from the field so leave him on waivers until he proves worthy of adding.
Josh Howard, Jazz
Owned: 13 percent
Analysis: Howard has seen his role diminish with the emergence of Hayward and his scoring has fallen off the map. He scored a combined 14 points during a five-game stretch that ended on Feb. 13, and shot a miserable 22 percent over that span. After putting up some decent point totals earlier in the season, the 31-year-old is on pace to have his worst campaign since his rookie year. Even owners in deeper Fantasy formats should ignore Howard at this point.
Add 'Em
Kendrick Perkins, Thunder
Owned: 29 percent
Analysis: Perkins ended Week 7 with his first double-double of the season and has become more active on offense of late. While he is not counted on for much scoring in Oklahoma City, he is putting back offensive rebounds and is even starting to get open for easy lay ups when Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant get double-teamed. Owners already know that his rebounding and defensive stats are valuable in Fantasy but consider scooping him up -- especially in Head-to-head formats -- with games against the Hornets, Celtics and Lakers on tap for Week 9.
Nikola Vucevic, 76ers
Owned: 11 percent
Analysis: Vucevic has been starting in Philadelphia with Spencer Hawes out and has earned some more playing time with his recent play. He scored 10 points to end Week 7 and opened up the following scoring period with an 8-and-10 performance against the Bobcats, playing 20-plus minutes in both of those contests. The 76ers are hoping Hawes can return sooner rather than later but they could choose to keep him out until after the All-Star break. That would be good news for Vucevic's Fantasy value so keep an eye on the situation going forward. Given how thin the center position is, consider Vucevic a viable add in deeper formats heading into Week 9.
Avoid 'Em
Jared Jeffries, Knicks
Owned: 4 percent
Analysis: Jeffries saw some decent run while Amar'e Stoudemire was out after the death of his brother, but his run in Fantasy appears to be over. After averaging 30.8 minutes per contest in his previous five games, he saw just 19 minutes during the first outing of Week 8, which was the game in which Stoudemire returned. He scored two points in the contest and will likely have a limited role as long as Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler are healthy. Owners that picked him up as a stopgap should feel free to drop Jeffries in all Fantasy formats.
Chuck Hayes, Kings
Owned: 27 percent
Analysis: After a breakout campaign a year ago, Hayes has been very disappointing and is currently mired in a bench role for the Kings. He has yet to score in double figures through 17 games this season, and has not posted double-digit rebounds since New Years' Day. Injuries have slowed him down a bunch but he has showed few signs of getting better as the season has progressed. With the way DeMarcus Cousins has been dominating the glass of late, it doesn't look as though he will be able to steal minutes anytime soon so leave Hayes on waivers for the time being.

A beautiful American girl, Daisy Miller, is pursued by the sophisticated Winterbourne, who moves in fairly conservative circles. Their courtship is frowned upon by the other Americans they meet in Switzerland and Italy because Daisy is too vivacious and flirtatious and neither belongs to, nor follows the rules of, their society. The novella is a comment on American and European attitudes towards each other and on social and cultural prejudice.

I agree with Em, the repressed pastry chef. When you need bread, you usually need it now. And once you get used to eating homemade bread, it's tough to go back to the store bought variety (unless you live in Paris, of course!). Which is why I was intrigued, interested and very keen to try the 60 minute dinner rolls that Em made a few days back.
I made 6 rolls instead of the original 24. And I made them in my brioche cups rather than muffin tins. Apart from that, the original recipe is perfect. In short, you give your flour too much yeast and it literally falls all over itself to rise.
Start by mixing 2 tbsp milk, a tsp of sugar, 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tbsp butter. Melt in the microwave for 30 seconds. Also heat 3/8 cup of water to lukewarm - this is what happens when you 1/4th the recipes, but I just took water a little less than 1/2 cup. Add 1 1/2 tsp yeast to water, then add the milk mixture (it should be now lukewarm). Gradually add flour until it stops sticking then knead it for a couple of minutes. Or head over to Em's to see how to do this effortlessly in a stand mixer.
Make a dough ball, put it in a greased bowl and let rise for 15 minutes. Divide it into 6 equal pieces and put each ball in a brioche/muffin cup. Now pick each piece in turn and using scissors, cut in half, then in quarters, and return all four pieces to the cup. Switch on the oven to very low (say 50C) and put the rolls in to rise.
After 15 minutes, increase the oven temperature to 220C and bake the rolls until they are golden. In my oven, this took another 15 minutes. So effectively, it was less than an hour. Ready by the time my pao bhaji got off the stove. And perfect as an accompaniment to the tangy, fiery bhaji.

The 60 Minute Rolls are not a myth

Richard Tuite, the man being re-tried for the 1998 murder of a 12-year-old Escondido girl, had his bail set at $1 million by a judge in court on Friday.
In 2004, Tuite was convicted of voluntary manslaughter in the case of Stephanie Crowe. Since then, the 43-year-old has been serving a 17-year sentence in a northern California prison.
On Jan. 21 1998, Crowe's body was discovered in her bedroom.
Investigators focused on her brother, Michael Crowe, and his friends Aaron Houser and Joshua Treadway as potential suspects.
The three boys were interrogated until Michael and Treadway confessed. A judge later threw out those confessions and the charges against the three teens were dropped.
Tuite – a mentally ill transient seen in Crowe's neighborhood around the time of the murder -- was eventually convicted in the case.
Last month, prosecutors revealed that Tuite would be re-tried due to the seriousness of the crime and public safety.
In court on Friday, attorneys said Tuite is a menace to society.
However, Tuite's attorney insisted he is not dangerous, and argued that there's been a lot of speculation in his case. His attorney also said there was never enough forensic evidence tying Tuite to Crowe's murder.
Ultimately, the judge set his bail at $1 million.
A status hearing for Tuite is slated for Dec. 12. His trial is set to begin on May 13, 2013.

For every phase of theatrical production, Sound and Music for the Theatre traces the entire process of sound design from initial concept through closing night. The book discusses the early evolution of a sound design that supports the play, from researching sources for music and effects to negotiating a contract. It shows how to organize the construction of the sound design elements, how the designer functions in a rehearsal, and how to set up and train an operator to run sound equipment for a theatrical production. This instructive information is interspersed with "war stories describing real-life problems with solutions that sound designers and composers can apply in their own work.
The new third edition still retains its focus on aesthetics, techniques, and process. However, it goes beyond to offer a brand new forum on sound reinforcement, unique information on computer-assisted playback systems, and a comprehensive perspective on using technology to build and execute shows.
An excellent book! A great breakdown of the art of sound design and how it fits in today's theatre.
--William Liotta, Tulane University
I have used the first edition of this book for years and I am very happy with the new edition.
--Michael Oncle, University of Memphis
Every phase of the production process is covered in detail, along with a host of anecdotal examples from the personal experiences of the authors. In all, it's ideal reading for those involved in the creative aspect of theatre sound rather than the practical operation.

Dunfermline supporters group Pars United expect swift resolution on offer
Dunfermline supporters group Pars United expect a swift resolution on its offer for the troubled club.
Last Updated: 19/06/13 7:19pm
The fans body is one of two parties who submitted bids for both the club and stadium before Tuesday's deadline and they welcomed "constructive dialogue" with BDO, the company in charge of the club, and KPMG, which is in control of East End Park.
Pars United confirmed Wednesday's meeting of creditors resulted in a vote to continue towards the initial target of hearing a Company Voluntary Arrangement on 12 July and maintain the Club's history.
A statement read: "We would ask all supporters of Dunfermline Athletic to be patient just a little longer as detailed negotiations now commence on the finer details of the bids for both club and ground. We hope to emerge as preferred bidder for both shortly.
"BDO and KPMG have a duty to examine all bids carefully and evaluate them fully. Fortunately both firms have very considerable expertise and we expect rapid progress on both fronts."
Bob Garmory from Pars United added: "It is helpful that we have been working closely with Bryan Jackson and Bob Barclay of BDO, as well as Blair Nimmo and Gary Fraser of KPMG since their appointment.
"We put in £100,000 at short notice in early April to stop the club being liquidated and we now intend to see it all the way through to leaving administration as soon as possible.
"Pars United, as a fans' movement, enjoys widespread support, and we thank everyone who has worked in any way to make this vision come true.
"We have both experience and knowledge in our negotiating team and we are backed by one of Scotland's leading legal firms, DWF Biggart Baillie.
"Our aim is simple. It is to restore the club we love, and put it onto a sound footing for the future."

By making your photographs available across all of your devices, Photo Stream makes it easier than ever to share your holiday snaps with your friends and family. However, the experience is ruined somewhat when your stream gets cluttered up with screenshots you've taken on your iOS devices.
Screenshot Dam is a new tweak for jailbroken devices that aims to solve this problem by preventing screenshots from entering your Photo Stream altogether.
Screenshot Dam is available for free in Cydia and it's incredibly easy to use. There's no setup — all you have to do is download and install it. It adds no icons to your home screen and makes no other changes to your device.
What it does do is filter out the screenshots you take on your iOS device and prevents them from entering your Photo Stream. They will still appear in the camera roll as usual, they just won't clutter up your cloud space.

ORLANDO, Fla. - Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush visited Central Florida on Tuesday to show his support for Mitt Romney at an event at the Orlando Executive Airport.
Bush's speech on Tuesday focused on helping small business and job creation. The town hall-style meeting had a panel of small business owner giving testimonials about their struggles and economic concerns.
Bush told the audience the biggest problem America faces is the current regulatory market that cuts off free enterprise. Bush also spoke about the most recent jobs report and what he thinks about the economic recovery.
"Many of these jobs are part-time jobs. It's clear that the recovery is not a V-shaped recovery it's an "I-shaped recovery" and low growth will not create, deal with the problems a whole lot of people face," Bush said.
Bush said he is endorsing Romney because he believes the country needs a leader with practical business experience. He would not answer whether he will go for a cabinet position if Romney is elected.
Bush will be attending the Kissimmee Hispanic Victory Meet and Greet on Tuesday at 1 p.m.

Let me explain: A couple of weeks back the NHS and a lot else crashed because some pointless, swivel-eyed cretin though it would be funny to disrupt the world.

When Jaguars Go Driverless
Put away your string-backed driving gloves old boy, you're not going to need them. Jaguar Land Rover plans to create a fleet of more than 100 research vehicles over the next four years, to develop and test a wide range of Connected and Autonomous Vehicle (CAV) technologies. The first of these research cars will be driven on a new 41 mile test route on motorways and urban roads around Coventry and Solihull later this year. Continue reading
Driverless Cars – Will We Really Have A Choice?
Now see here. We don't care for change. We're British. Look how long it took us to get over manual gearboxes. Even a very famous journalist once grumbled about 'stupid flappy paddles'. Real men change gears with a stick. Only thanks to unrelenting determination by car makers did we finally accept that, y'know, those DCT's aren't too bad. High praise indeed from the British.

Driverless Cars – "You Won't Get Me Into One Of Those Things"
A postprandial sojourn on the sofa is part of any man's life. The other day, after just such a nap, I awoke to find I had a bit of a sore throat. Well, you can imagine the rest. By the end of the day I had a full-blown man-cold and, as a result, I have fallen behind on the work. Therefore I can't now report the latest news on driverless cars so much as just comment upon it.

Please answer this question asap
Suppose you are a thirty-year-old worker choosing between an IRA, a ROTH IRA and aregular brokerage account. Your marginal federal tax rate is 15% now and 15% inretirement. Your investment of $1000 of reduction of current consumption will earnbefore tax return of 7% for 35 years (note, this means that you invest approximately$1176=$1000/(1-.15) for a regular IRA, getting back $176 as reduced taxes, in the firstexample, while you invest $1000 for the other two types of accounts). The tax oninvestment returns on a regular brokerage account is 10% (meaning you earn a 6.3%after tax annual yield).
a)Compare after-tax returns on all three forms of investment. Rank the investmentoptions.
b) Suppose your tax rates are 30% now and 15% in retirement: what is the bestoption now? Please be sure to keep the initial decrease in consumption (after-taxincome) constant.
c) What if the rates are 15% now and 30% in retirement?
d) Suppose the marginal tax rate now is 15%. What would future marginal tax ratehave to be for a regular brokerage account to be a better option than a regularIRA?
2. Assume that there are only two goods in the economy: video games and water. The totalamount of these goods are given, there is no production. The world is inhabited by twopeople: Ann and Bob. Assume that Ann and Bob have regular preferences (notnecessarily same for Ann and Bob) over video games and water; and that they havesome endowments of these two goods. Now a well-intentioned politician says thatbecause water is scarce and it is a necessity, both Ann and Bob should get half of theoverall water resources (and get to consume their respective endowents of videogames). Is this likely to be an efficient policy? Use the Edgeworth-box to justify youranswer.
3. Pete and Paul live in an exchange economy (so we can use the Edgeworth-box). Theeconomy has endowment of 10 cheese slices and 10 crackers. Pete has distinguishedtaste, he likes to eat cheese with cracker, to the extent that he considers them perfectcomplements, his utility is U=min{ch, cr}, where ch=cheese consumption andcr=crackers consumption. Paul cares only about satisfying calorie requirements; heconsiders cheese and crackers perfect substitutes. His utility function is U=ch+cr.
a) Is Pete consuming 3 crackers and 5 cheeses slices a Pareto-optimal allocation? Ifnot, how could you rearrange the consumption of Pete and Paul to arrive at betterallocation?
b) Using Edgeworth-box, draw a Pareto-optimal allocation.
c) Using the logic of your answer for part a, draw the contract curve.

It's a question I keep coming back to over the last few weeks. Skullcandy sent over a review unit of their wireless PLYR2 stereo headset and after hooking up the transmitter (simple, all necessary cables are included), charging the headset (simple, relatively quick), and sitting down to a play session of Sleeping Dogs and watching an episode of "Murder, She Wrote," I can't help but conclude that there's no turning back from the simplicity wireless offers.
There easy to set "EQ Equalizer Modes"
on the left cup for games, movies, and
music. The knob is the volume
control. The mini-USB jack is used for
Because of my setup at home, I find that I'm using the PLYR2's all the time because they allow me to listen to podcasts, the radio, whatever's on TV, etc. without cable interference. This is supremely handy when washing the dishes or folding laundry or rocking the baby trying to get him back to sleep or dancing naked to loud music without disturbing the neighbors. There's no danger of "cable snag."
I'm also happy with the range of the transmitter. Within a radius of 30' seems ideal. After leaving the area the audio starts to pop and fade in and out. This means I could wander the house doing chores without being disconnected. With an estimated battery life of 15 hours before a re-charge, that's a lot of chores.
Pivot! Pivot! Pivot! The boom mic really pivots! And
the ear cups are extremely comfortable and breath pretty well.
No issues with "sweat ear."
Based on convenience and the sound you get, the Skullcandy PLYR2's gets high marks. Though I'm sure there are audiophiles out there that would consider it blasphemy to think of stereo sound as "good enough," the audio is good enough for me and for $99.99CAN it's worth considering if you're in the market for a solid wireless headset.

Regional Identities in England
by dannymillum
For those interested in local history, a new book by Alan Fox seeks to test the hypothesis that there was, in England, a patchwork of historical regions (largely coinciding with major drainage basins) which in turn allied closely with pre-1974 counties – in other words, that these counties had their own regional identities stretching back to Anglo-Saxon times.
This theory, most strongly espoused in the past by Charles Phythian-Adams, is challenged by John Beckett in his review of Fox's A Lost Frontier Revealed: Regional Separation in the East Midlands which is now available on the new-look Reviews in History site here.

Today in the Bloggernacle: A 3-year-old recites Articles of Faith and Elder Christofferson visits Argentina
Krisis86 Draper, UTNov. 27, 2011 9:00 p.m.
I don't know, I think children often have faith that we adults can't even touch. In the interest of full disclosure, this is my son. His name is Toby. He has always had a spirituality about him - most kids are obsessed with cars or dinosaurs or princesses, Toby's obsession is temples. Like crazy obsessed with temples, and has been since he was about 18 months old. As a parent who was not active LDS when he was born, his "faith" and example to my husband and I has left us with stronger testimonies of our own.
Toby does have an insane memory (sometimes it's freaky) and yes, you could call this a parlor trick. But as I wrote in the blog post, I'd rather have him learn scriptures than pointless nursery rhymes. We do talk a lot about the meaning behind the words as well, but obviously, he's 3, so I have no idea how much understanding is going on there.
J-TX Allen, TXNov. 21, 2011 9:10 a.m.
The kid is obviously brilliant, but to declare that he has faith because he can do this parlor trick is a little premature. That's why the age of accountability is 8, not 3, I guess. Good foundation, though.

Ryan Smith put up big numbers in his sophomore and junior seasons but he hasn't picked up major offers yet - maybe because he's a 5-foot-7 wide receiver.
Height could be playing a factor for the Las Vegas (Nev.) Bishop Gorman standout who has combined for 1,976 yards and 32 touchdowns the last two seasons.
"I want to go to an offense I feel comfortable with, like a spread offense that throws the ball a lot, so that's the kind of offense I'm looking for," Smith said last weekend at the New Level Athletics Elite 7on7 in Las Vegas.
Article Continues Below
"A lot of coaches, and even my coaches, say I have to be the toughest one on the field because of my height. That's what I have to do so I'm hitting the weight room hard to beat everybody on the field."
New Mexico has offered Smith, a three-star prospect by Rivals.com, and he said some Pac-12 and Big Ten schools are showing interest but things aren't too busy at this point in his recruitment.
Smith, who averaged more than 28 yards per catch in his junior season and has proven to be a game-breaker, said he wants to get out to camps this off-season to prove he can be effective on the Division I level.
Over the next few months, Smith could catch the attention of many college coaches because he is such a playmaker.
"I'm still young but I'm starting to develop a little bit so hopefully this year will be a lot better," Smith said.

TheBlaze's Mike Opelka contributed to this report.
Michelle Malkin rallied the crowd during her speech at Glenn Beck's Man in the Moon Independence Speaker Series this evening. From lambasting Democrats' attempts to offer "amnesty," to discussing her own family's immigration story, the commentator mixed quips with passionate commentary. But the big surprise was when Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-Texas) stood up during the question-and-answer portion of the program and praised Malkin.
After she joked that she wakes up every morning surprised that she's able to make a living by voicing her opinions, Gohmert surprised the crowd. He jumped up and took the mic to tell the crowd that she's been so successful because of the quality of the information she spouts.
"You are inspirational, you know that," Gohmer said after having received a standing ovation himself. "The reason you can make a living opening your mouth is because of what comes out."
Malkin, naturally, appreciated his remarks.
"Could we just clone you? I would drop my aversion to cloning," she joked, calling the congressman "one of the good guys."
Watch the intriguing moment, below:
As for her speech — a passionate appeal to the audience about the nation's current state and challenges — the conservative commentator didn't disappoint.
"I could not think of a better way to celebrate Independence Day than with all of you," she opened earlier in the evening, instantly winning over the crowd.
From there, she wasted little time before diving into a discussion about immigration reform, noting that we should be speaking about assimilation than amnesty (she highlighted the dangers of embracing this latter).
"I'm here to talk a little bit about the 'a word' — not just America, but assimilation," Malkin said. "But [among] so many of the identity politics mongers on the left and among the progressive movement you hear the 'a word' — amnesty."
She called the act of embracing this sentiment a "recipe for destruction," going on to call for restoration. Malkin noted that, while many people are celebrating freedom today, that there are some U.S. citizens who hate America, people who do not see the value of assimilation.
"Celebrate America, celebrate unity. One people. One common thread," she said, calling for increased connectedness.
Extending well beyond a mere feeling, Malkin spoke explicitly about actions that everyone should be taking. In addition to speaking the same language, she called for people to stand up and be proud of the same history.
From honesty to restraint, the commentator spoke candidly about the need for citizens to demonstrate the virtues that the Founding Fathers touted.
Taking a brief break from the heavy content, she quipped, "Piers Morgan is going, 'What are those?,'" in reference to these values.
From there, she worked her way back into the immigration issue, decrying amnesty-supporters who are seeking to "undermine the rule of law and American sovereignty."
"People who come into this country should play by the rules," she added.
Malkin shared her own parents' story of coming, legally, to the U.S. from the Philippines in the 1970s. She remembers being confronted with racism in New Jersey. And that wasn't her only challenge. Malkin also recalled being very shy as a child and even, surprising, failing a seventh-grade speech class due to nerves.
"I've never lived my life with any kind of hyphen," she said, decrying the use of labels that add an additional descriptive to the label "American." "I am an unhyphenated American and proud to be so."
Contrary to those who would say otherwise, Malkin claims she's not "against immigrants."
"We're for people who will share our common principles of limited constitutional government, who understand the need for self regulation," she said. "DIY has always been my motto. Do it yourself — and that is how we restore first principles. Self-reliance, self-restraint, self-assertion and yes, the pursuit of self-interest."
The crowd left her with wild applause.

Parliament hearing on energy tariff review starts in Armenia
YEREVAN, June 17. /ARKA/. The parliament hearing on electricity price review started in Armenia on Tuesday.
Earlier, the head of Armenia's public services regulatory commission (PSRC) Robert Nazaryan said electricity price will probably rise by 3.85 drams or 10% as from August 1.
The hearing held by the standing commission on economic issues is attended by the head of the PSRC Robert Nazaryan, representatives of the ministry of energy and natural resources, NGOs.
The PSRC studied during several months the applications about tariff increases from all companies in the field – from power plants about release price, for distributing companies, 'High Voltage Electric Networks' and 'Electric Networks of Armenia' about the pricing margin.
According to the preliminary estimates by the PSRC, the energy field needs an additional of 20 billion drams (without VAT) to ensure reliable and safe electricity supplies. To make up for the financial gap an increase of the tariff within 3.8-4.3 drams per kilowatt-hour (including VAT) is anticipated for all consumer groups.
The PSRC has also found that substantial changes are expected in factors influencing the pricing in energy system in 2014-2015. The PSRC will make a decision on the matter in the near future.
The Commission has already raised consumer prices for electric power just one year ago from 30 drams to 38 drams per one KWh (including VAT) for daytime consumption and from 25 drams to 28 drams for nighttime consumption. The then decision took force on July 7, 2013. ($1 – AMD 411.86). --0--

The Johnson County Commissioners discussed funds they set aside for the YMCA with Director Mike Quast at their meeting this week, questioning what exactly they had set the money aside for.
The commissioners thought they had set the $100,000 aside for maintenance and a "slush fund" in case money was needed for an emergency situation on the building or its components.
Quast came before the council last month, requesting that money to use in the YMCA's proposed expansion project they are currently working on. That request was initially approved by the commissioners but questions involving the intended use of those funds prompted this week's meeting.
The discussions at this week's meeting included what the purpose of the fund was, how the YMCA could and could not use the money, and the legalities involved in each scenario.
The commissioners decided to table any decision in the matter until County Clerk Vicki Edelman could research back meeting minutes to find specifically what the commissioners had set the funds aside for.
The commissioners will discuss the matter further at their next meeting April 15th.

Her published children's and young adult novels include the award-winning Miranda and Starlight series of eight (soon to be nine) books, Danny's Dragon, a Story of Wartime Loss, winner of the Eric Hoffer Award, and a trilogy about twins, separated at a young age and searching for each other. Kyleah's Tree, a finalist for both the High Plains Book Award and USA Book News, Best Book Award, is the the girl twin's story. It's companion novel, Kendall's Storm, silver medal winner of the Moonbeam Award, is the boy twin's story. Kendall and Kyleah, is the third book of the series completes their story. Her book, Call Me Captain has been renamed, The Body in the Freezer, and is a story about a 13-year-old rich kid who is both smart, and smart-mouthed searching for his place in the world—and finding when forced to "volunteer" in a homeless shelter.
Hill calls the writing she does "true fiction," because, she says, "My goal is to tell the truth about the human experience, its dilemmas, natural responses, and emotions through fictional characters; characters children relate to; characters who will help them better understand themselves, giving them comfort and encouragement in their own lives."
Ms. Hill spends much of her free time enjoying the outdoors, her horses, and most of all her family, which includes eight grandchildren and one great-granddaughter. She writes and publishes from her home office in rural Montana near the Madison River.
Review by:
Wilson James
on May 18, 2010 :
It was a good thing I started reading this book on a Sunday morning, because once I started I could not stop. This narrative absolutely kept me riveted right to the end. "Kendall's Storm" was truly a great read, even as it kept me on the edge of my seat and took me places I didn't always want to go.
This book may be fiction, but it has a sincerity and ring of truth throughout. Through the characters' eyes and personal experiences, one learns (again) just how badly we, as a society, treat our youngest and weakest members. Through the empathetic storytelling of Janet Muirhead Hill, we also experience a coming of age with the certainty that love, affection and attention can make a profound and positive difference in a child's life.
This was a wonderful, thought-provoking, and intense book, and I sincerely recommend it.

Medical Definition of UROD
UROD: Uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase, an enzyme required for the synthesis of heme, a part of the hemoglobin molecule. UROD catalyses the decarboxylation of uroporphyrinogen III to coproporphyrinogen III by the conversion of four acetic acid groups to four methyl groups.
The gene encoding UROD is in chromosome region 1p34. Mutations in this gene resulting in reduced activity of the enzyme cause the most common form of porphyria -- porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) -- and the recessively inherited form of hepatoerythropoietic porphyria (HEP).

Planetary position that indicates Marriage troubles for the Rishaba Lagna (Taurus Rising) natives:
1. The Mars getting placed in the Cancer, Libra, Sagittarius and Capricorn.
2. The presence of Shani, Guru and Moon in the Gemini and the Scorpio.
3. The association of Guru and/or Venus with the Mars in any zodiac signs. But the placement in Cancer, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius and Capricorn would be devastating.
4. The Parivartana Yoga (interchange of houses) between /Shani/Guru/Venus with the Mars.
5. The Mars getting placed in the Cancer in the Navamsa chart. Also Mars getting placed in the 3rd, 6th, 8th and 12th house from the Navamsa Lagna.
6. The Mars traversing in the 22nd Nakshatra or 88th path from the natives Jenma Nakshatra.
7. The Mars getting placed with Kethu within + (or) - 03.20.00 degrees. The Mars and Kethu getting placed in the same Nakshatra or the same path.
8. The Mars getting combusted by the Sun.
9. The Mars getting placed with Rahu within + (or) - 03.20.00 degrees. The Mars and Rahu getting placed in the same Nakshatra or the same path.
10. The Mars getting eclipsed in the natal chart.
11. The Mars getting weaker in the Ashtavargha charts.
12. The Mars traversing in the Rohini, Hastham, Thiruvonam, Punarpusam, Visaka, Purattathi, Pusam, Uthirattathi and Anusham Nakshatras.
The Rishaba Lagna natives who has the above planetary position in their horoscope should be very careful about their Marriage Life and also about choosing a correct life partner.

Apollo disaster needs action and reflection
The disaster at the Apollo theatre has focused attention once more on the West End's ageing theatre stock.
In more normal situations, venue owners have been happy to emphasise the need for money to be invested in improvements – preferably with a contribution from the public purse.
Understandably they will not on this occasion welcome the fact that theatre safety has now become a matter of intense public scrutiny.
Rightly so, but first some caveats:
Until a proper investigation is complete we should avoid simplistic assumptions that old theatre = public danger. Westminster City Council was right of course to respond immediately with a check on procedures but, as SOLT pointed out, all major Theatreland venues have up to date safety inspections and certificates.
By the usual standards these theatres do pass muster every bit as much as a new-build office would. That appears to include the Apollo itself. And at the present moment it cannot be ruled out that what happened may have borne no relation to the age of the building (112 years, should anyone be wondering).
Whatever the causes, the disaster does underline another aspect of safety. Namely the need to take seriously the need for good practices and emergency procedures. Anecdotal evidence does at least suggest that staff and management's response was fast and effective.
It is undeniable that an Edwardian theatre will present greater challenges for an evacuation than, say, the Barbican. Such challenges are likely to impinge more upon management's time and priorities if local authorities insist on new procedures to ensure safety.
Doubtless Nimax and its rivals will rise to the challenges. It tends to be forgotten that theatre ownership is one of those things like the purchase of football teams and newspapers; there are easier ways to make money and such activities involve a sense of vocation as well as commercial nous. Whatever else one may say about West End owners, they are passionate about their houses.
And it should not be forgotten that we British are enthusiastic about our theatrical heritage. Sometimes it is a hard act balancing the need to preserve a Matcham jewel (though he didn't design the Apollo) with the need for audiences to enjoy and professionals to present a performance. So regardless of the cause of this one significant incident – which we must leave to expert judgement – we might remind ourselves that preservation does warrant investment.
That's something we can all take a part in, in the shape of contributing to restoration funds encouraged by managements willing to be transparent. In the meantime our sympathy at The Stage to all those injured and good speed to the Apollo investigations and reconstruction.

- CMS releases FY 2014 IPPS final rule
CMS releases FY 2014 IPPS final rule
AHA News Now
Aug 2, 2013
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services today released the fiscal year 2014 hospital inpatient prospective payment system final rule. Under the rule, inpatient PPS rates will increase by 0.7% in FY 2014 compared to FY 2013, after accounting for inflation and other adjustments required by law. Specifically, the rule includes an initial market basket update of 2.5% for those hospitals that submit data on quality measures; hospitals not submitting data will receive a 0.5% update. The rule makes a productivity cut of 0.5 percentage points and a 0.3 percentage point cut mandated by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. In addition, CMS will make a 0.8 percentage point cut that would, in part, fulfill the requirement of the American Taxpayer Relief Act that it recoup what the agency claims is the effect of documentation and coding changes from FYs 2010, 2011 and 2012 that CMS says do not reflect real changes in case-mix. The agency also will make a 0.2 percentage point cut to offset the effect of its inpatient admission and medical review criteria for hospital inpatient services. CMS finalized its proposal to generally consider hospital inpatient admissions spanning two midnights as reasonable and necessary for payment under Part A. "While hospitals have wanted clarification of inpatient admission criteria, this final rule is unlikely to reduce the number of appeals of Part A claim denials, which CMS said was one of the primary goals of its rulemaking," said (LINK) AHA Senior Vice President Linda E. Fishman. The rule also implements the ACA-mandated Medicare Disproportionate Share Hospital reductions, which will reduce overall Medicare DSH spending by about $550 million in FY 2014, as opposed to the proposed $1 billion cut. As proposed, CMS will use inpatient days of Medicaid beneficiaries plus inpatient days of Medicare supplemental security income beneficiaries as a proxy for measuring the amount of uncompensated care each hospital provides. AHA members will receive a Special Bulletin with further details Monday.
