Today I'm excited to tell you about a company that makes some awesome toys for kids! I first met the folks from Tech 4 Kids at the Sweet Suite event while I was in NYC for BlogHer '12. They had some of their favorite items on display and I was lucky enough to get my hands on a few of them myself for review!
Magna Color
For the child on your holiday shopping list who loves artsy products, you must check out the Magna Color design station. Magna Color turns magnetic dots into incredible 3D artwork! Fill up the special Magna Color Magic Dot pens with the brightly-colored dots, then use the included stencils or your own imagination to make designs on the screen. Magnetic dots come out of the pens to create your masterpiece and then sweep them back into the sorting system and refill the pens to make another piece of art!
Included are:
- Special designed magnetic drawing studio with screen sweeper
- 4 UnderWater World Stencils
- 4 Unique colored Magic Dot Pens
- 160 pcs of 3D Magic Dots in 4 different colors
- 1 Pair 3D Ultra Vision glasses
My boys love playing with the Magna Color! They worked together on several of the stencil sheets and then "Oooh"d and "Ahhhh"d over the 3D designs. I was surprised at how mess-free the Magna Color is! The dots stay contained where they need to be and sort easily back into the pens.
You can buy additional refill design packs with beloved characters such as Hello Kitty, Spongebob Squarepants, and Dora! More dots, stencils, and pens can also be purchased. See more at MagnaColorFun.com!
Squishy things have almost universal appeal to kids, particularly boys, and these cool little toys are no exception! Mash'Ems can be twisted, squished, and even launched! They come in awesome collectible styles (Power Rangers, Angry Birds, Marvel characters, Smurfs, WWE, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Moshi Monsters) that your kids will love!
My kids received two packages of Mash'Ems — Power Rangers and Moshi Monsters. My 4 year old and 2 year old agree that they are super cool. One thing we love about them is that they can play with them loudly and crazily OR quietly. Yes, there's a time for being rowdy boys (and they've got that covered!) but also a time to sit quietly. Both of the boys love to hold and squish their Mash'Ems while we read chapter books before afternoon Quiet Time.
You can meet all of the Mash'Ems at MashEms.com and view their commercials to see Mash'Ems in action!
Splat Strike
I also got to see Splat Strike at Sweet Suite, an action shooting game featuring Spiderman or Angry Birds!
Where To Buy
Magna Color, Mash'Ems, and Splat Strike can be purchased at:
- MasterMind Toys
- Toys R Us Canada and Toys R Us
- Showcase Canada
- other online retailers like Amazon.com

I keep running into projects and ideas that I wish I'd thought of. Last week it was the pixilated gaming cutting boards, and this week it's a giant Nintendo Controller Coffee Table. Sure, we just picked up a new coffee table (furniture seems to rule my life this month). But do you think my wife would mind if I made one of these? Perhaps I could mod it to just be a table top…yeah, that'll go over real well.
Over at his blog – called Ultra Awesome – Kyle Downes talks about building the giant NES controller. The best part of the whole thing is that the controller works. You can play games with it. How efficiently is another question. But you have to give Kyle credit for a genius idea, and then making it work. It's just too bad my NES has been dead and buried for many years now. An Xbox 360 controller coffee table just isn't practical. Everything would fall off.
A simple piece of glass sits atop the controller to protect the surface and buttons, and to make it usable as a coffee table. And it even opens up for storage space. You can read about the final product, as well as previous blog postings on the table's construction over at Kyle's blog.

This will add a pole sleeve to a standard 4x6' flag so that it can be displayed properly on an Indoor Flag Set.
If you would like to have an Indoor Flag Set that displays a flag other than a U.S. Flag, this is the option that you would choose after adding the flag you would like used to your shopping cart.
Just select the flag that you would like to purchase and choose this option also. Then we will convert the flag from the standard canvas header and grommets to a Pole Sleeve.
If you are buying more than one flag and only want the conversion done to one specific flag, just make a note in the "Comments" section of your order during the checkout process.

Yep, it's rubber-hose time, folks: a rapid-fire Q&A for those shifty-looking usual suspects ...
What crime novel would you like to have written?
The Galton Case by Ross Macdonald. A compelling trip through family secrets, present and past, the mystery of your own identity.
Who do you read for guilty pleasures?
John Mortimer's Rumpole books. A writer who found his groove.
Most satisfying writing moment?
Doing a line of pure iambic pentameter to round off An Irish Solution.
The best Irish crime novel is …?
Of those I've read, possibly The Book of Evidence by John Banville.
What Irish crime novel would make a great movie?
The Statement by Brian Moore. Nothing Irish about it, thanks be to God.
Worst / best thing about being a writer?
Worst: the impossibility of finding enough time, if you work in an endless job like mine (university teaching). Best: Setting out to say something, failing to say it, then finding you've said something better. But it doesn't always work out that way.
Why does John Banville use a pseudonym for writing crime?
Fleeing his creditors? Certainly not. Because he never noticed that "John Banville" writes crime stories? Hardly. Influenced by A.A. Fair (now known to be Erle Stanley Gardner)? Perish the thought. Market segmentation? Unthinkable. The example of Salvatore Lombino (a.k.a. Ed McBain & Evan Hunter)? Don't be vulgar. Perhaps inspired by François-Marie Arouet? Yes, I think that sounds much better. But who am I to carp? I'm somewhat pseudonymous myself.
The three best words to describe your own writing are …?
Prolix. Awful prolix.

TELESEMINAR: Attorney Ethics and Social Media – A National Perspective
May 30, 2014
12:00 – 1:00 p.m.
1.00 MCLE hours, including 1.00 Professional Responsibility MCLE credit hours (PMCLE credit subject to approval)
Social media of every kind – law firm web sites and e-newsletters, blogging, LinkedIn and Facebook – have opened vast new opportunities for attorneys. You can communicate with current and prospective clients, colleagues and staff, and the public. You can also obtain vast troves of information on virtually everything and everyone – factual information about cases or transactions and background information on prospective clients, jurors, opposing counsel and others. Because social media has become pervasive overnight and is so easy to use, it's easy to overlook the real and substantial ethical issues that arise when using its various platforms. This program will outline the most important attorney ethics issues when using social media to communicate, obtain information, and develop new client work.
- Attorney ethics and social media – web sites, blogging, e-newsletters, LinkedIn, Facebook and more
- "Friending" or linking with clients, experts, judges and colleagues
- Ethical issues when blogging, providing clients with legal updates via e-newsletters, and LinkedIn updates
- Avvo and other sites providing attorney rankings and reviews
- Using LinkedIn and other platforms to promote expertise and develop business
- Ethics issues when establishing and maintaining law firm web sites – attorney biographies and substantive legal information

Peter Dale, chef at Athens restaurant The National, has clear ideas on seasoning: "I can't say enough how important fresh herbs are to my cooking."
The restaurant's popularity and his growing critical recognition (Atlanta's Creative Loafing named one of his vegetable creations among its 10 Most Memorable Dishes of 2008; he was the only chef so honored outside metro Atlanta) show his use of herbs to be both skilled and inventive.
Dale, with professional experience in Spain and as sous chef at Athens' Five and Ten, uses green herbs to animate his foods. He says, for example, tossing fresh basil with roasted root vegetables "gives life" to this otherwise "dull wintry dish."
At nearby Farm 255, the restaurant courtyard is surrounded by half-barrels and huge flowerpots growing herbs. The establishment's brochure portrays a field of oregano.
Focusing on local and organic produce, the restaurant employs fresh herbs extensively in sautéing, finishing dishes, garnishing and even in drinks and desserts.
Olivia Sergeant, restaurant manager plus organic farmer at Full Moon Farm, adores herbs. With farming and culinary experience in Northern Italy, she says "using fresh herbs is like turning 180 degrees from dry herbs."
Fresh herbs can excite home cooking, too. And just picked, herbs are remarkably better than after languishing at the supermarket. Home-grown herbs also are cheaper and at hand when needed.
But Sergeant cautions cooks switching from dried to fresh herbs to go gently on quantities at first because the fresh are so much more aromatic.
How, then, do city dwellers without gardens grow enough herbs to enliven their cooking? The answer is simpler than you might think. A good supply for summer can be produced in a large pot in a sunny spot on the patio or backyard. Or with a little more space - and sun - a small raised bed can yield plenty.
Herbs in containers?
Atlanta resident Marina Costarides, a first-generation Greek-American who visits Greece frequently, says basil grows in clay pots "everywhere" there, even on city balconies. Her mother, who immigrated to Georgia from the Southern Peloponnese (near Kalamata, of olive fame), still maintains basil in pots in her backyard. But Greeks traditionally do not eat basil, preferring oregano, parsley, rosemary, dill and mint.
Costarides' mother was astounded when her daughter began cooking with basil, declaring, "That's what the ITALIANS do!"
The herb is considered sacred, a reminder of the basil-covered grove in Jerusalem where, according to tradition, the revered St. Helena of Constantinople located the Cross of Jesus.
Similarly, basil flourishes in pots at Orthodox churches in Romania, as Michael Negoescu, a Romanian-born pilot from Atlanta, confirmed.
Also, like their Greek co-religionists, Romanians traditionally do not cook with the herb.
Culinary preference and religious veneration notwithstanding, basil clearly succeeds in pots.
Herbs that will grow in containers and that are useful in contemporary cooking include basil, parsley and rosemary. (However, parsley, with strong tap roots, needs a deep pot, as Olivia Sergeant points out.) Several other herbs also do well, including oregano, sage, mint and thyme, though they may have fewer American culinary uses. Cilantro and dill, while wonderful when fresh, mature and go to seed quickly.
Anna Hauser, a University of Georgia-trained Atlanta horticulturist, says with the heavy local clay soils, pots or raised beds are preferable for growing herbs because the plants need good drainage. Container growing has additional advantages, especially when space and sun are limited.
With a spot on the patio, balcony or corner of the yard receiving at least six hours of daily sun, a large pot can yield enough herbs for home cooking all summer. Outdoor watering restrictions are not a problem. Nonsoapy, nongreasy kitchen rinse water, otherwise discarded, will suffice.
A pot can be moved indoors in the fall to extend the supply of herbs.
Hauser and Kevin Yates, an organic farmer in Athens now landscaping with edible plants, provided the following guidance on raising herbs in containers:
For four different herbs, use a 16-inch clay or plastic pot or half whiskey barrel. The container must have a drainage hole.
Growing medium
Do NOT use garden soil, which is too dense. A good mixture is half compost or potting soil, one-quarter ground pine bark or peat moss, and one-quarter perlite or vermiculite (heat-puffed natural minerals). Or, for simplicity, a commercial "container mixture" can be used. Many media are available at garden supply stores.
Plant sources
Purchase small pots of started plants (often several plants together per pot) at the garden supply source.
Plant when the danger of frost is past and the weather is warming (basil is quite cold-sensitive), early to mid-April in Athens.
Test soil 1 1/2 inches deep with your finger. Water if fairly dry, and before plants wilt. Morning watering is best. In midsummer, daily watering may be needed, especially with permeable clay pots.
Apply fertilizer sparingly to soil, once after planting and once in mid-summer. Yates recommends top dressing lightly with composted manure or using "Plant-Tone" or other organic fertilizer, all available at some garden stores. Commercial potting mixtures may contain slow-release fertilizer, which would serve for the first fertilization.
Use no pesticides. Pick off caterpillars (of the black swallowtail butterfly) if they visit the parsley. Pinch tips off young basil plants to encourage branching. Pinch off flowering buds throughout the summer to keep plants vigorous and leaves from becoming bitter.
For maximum fragrance and flavor, pick individual leaves or pieces of stem just before use.
A pot flourishing with herbs this summer will delight the eye as well as the palate. A great idea is to plant two pots. The second will make a splendid gift for a friend who cooks - and should score you some fine dinner invitations!
• Tim Dondero is an international medical researcher as well as cooking teacher, chef and caterer. He divides his time between Atlanta and Athens, and has family in both communities. Contact him at email@example.com or visit his blog, t-jintan.blogspot.com.

I work with leaders in companies, government, communities, and non-profits who are hungry to generate collective action on their most pressing issues. They recognize that to create the value and impact that they want to create, they need a diverse coalition of partners who are ready to challenge the status quo together. They recognize that to gain traction on organizational and/or societal change they need other leaders who are willing to share ownership and responsibility for action. And, they are looking for a skilled guide that can help them collaborate with others on problems that are characterized by complexity.
I customize each facilitation engagement to meet the needs of the client. At the core, in every single one of my engagements, there are three principles that I put to use regularly:
An individual, no matter how expert or how experienced, can never match the genius of collective intelligence. I work with my clients to design structured spaces for dialogue that allow participants to engage with new ways of acting, relating, and being. What results is not just the harvest of all voices and perspectives, but fresh thinking that leads to wiser action.
People are more likely to invest their time money, and resources in efforts where they feel both deeply engaged and aligned. I draw on creative and generative facilitation methods that invite participants' whole selves - their head, heart, and hands - into creating solutions that they want to be part of. High levels of interaction enables breakthrough results.
Change is a process, not a destination. By helping my clients get clear on the results that they want to create, we design facilitation engagements that match the scale of their challenges. A single day event can spark new insights and relationships, while longer-term processes can enable new initiatives and, ultimately, large-scale systemic transformation.
Proven ways to learn and collaborate.
I bring 15 years of experience in rigorous facilitation methodologies that helps groups work better together. I listen closely to bring the right tools in at the right time to move the change process forward. I've studied with leading researchers in systems change at MIT and adult learning at Harvard. I've spent years testing which tools deliver the most powerful results.
When clients hire me, it's not because they are looking for traditional ways of working that are based on rational planning. They hire me for my ability to design and facilitate engagements that challenge their group to stay in the creative tension of chaos and order -- with just enough chaos to make the creation of newness possible and just enough order to bring the ideas into wise action. They expect to be challenged to raise their attention, awareness, and consciousness about the issues that they are wrestling with.
My facilitation approach is different from other consultants, but it delivers. Clients say they appreciate what I do because it creates the opportunity for innovation to take place and where sustainable change can be discovered.

Gloucester, Uk (PressExposure) August 31, 2009 -- Whether it's simple document storage, archive shelving or filing space a client is looking for; BiGDUG's new economy range of quality products will suit even the tightest of budgets.
Featuring BiGDUG 'boltless' technology, BiGDUG's economy shelving system is easy to construct - it simply taps together. It is strong, slim-line and comes in a smart soft grey painted finish. Each shelf can support 200kg of uniformly distributed load and the unique post design gives a smart silhouette by concealing all shelf positioning holes. Economy shelving units are also TUV GS tested and certified.
Units can be fixed together to create large storage bays or wider shelving options.
Custom designed file storage is also available at modest prices. Using the same multi scale economy shelving mentioned above, simple boxes constructed from corrugated cardboard act as file supports. These prevent files and folders from falling and sliding when the shelf isn't full.
With fantastic storage potential and with prices starting from just £29 excl. VAT, clients can't lose.
"Storage is an issue for many businesses but it needn't be expensive to sort out the issue out..." says Doug Nourse, Managing Director of BiGDUG. "The new range of economy storage solutions available at BiGDUG are cost effective and don't compromising on style or quality - take a look!"

J.P. Morgan Stays Top in 2011 All-America Research Team
Money managers are scouring the globe for investment opportunities while they wait for the U.S. to hit bottom — meanwhile, J.P. Morgan has once again been rated the firm with the best analysts in the U.S.
|2011 All-America Research Team
The world economic crisis has accelerated the globalization of finance at least in the eyes of many investors. Asset managers that once focused primarily or even exclusively on the U.S. have been compelled to look beyond its borders not only to keep abreast of developments overseas that could affect American markets the Arab Spring and Europes sovereign-debt debacles, among others but also to avail themselves of better opportunities that exist in other countries.
Our clients, particularly the larger ones, are global, explains Noelle Grainger, J.P. Morgans head of U.S. equity research. They might not be investing truly globally, but they have to think about issues globally, and its important to make sure that were driving our strategic initiatives in that direction as well.
This broader focus applies to corporations as well as countries. Stuart Linde, head of global equities research at Barclays Capital, offers one example. Consumer staples is a big global business, he says. If youre covering General Mills, if youre covering Kraft, you need to know whats going on at Nestlé. If youre covering P&G, you need to know whats going on at Unilever, he explains, comparing U.S.-based consumer goods companies with their European peers.
Theres another reason, notes Stephen Haggerty, head of Americas equity research at BofA Merrill Lynch Global Research. The U.S. is becoming a more mature market, he observes. Our economic growth rate is not going to be off the charts for the foreseeable future, given what has to happen to restructure the U.S. economy. Its harder to find alpha if you are just looking at the U.S.
To deliver the kind of research that clients find most helpful, analysts covering U.S. stocks are working more closely these days with their counterparts in Hong Kong, London and around the world. The researchers who outperform all others when it comes to providing the perspective that money managers require can most often be found at J.P. Morgan, which leads the All-America Research Team for a second consecutive year but by a very narrow margin. J.P. Morgan captures 40 total team positions, six fewer than last year and only one more than the two firms that tie for second place: BarCap, which repeats at No. 2 despite a loss of four positions, and BofA Merrill, which rises one notch even though its total drops by three.
That margin widens dramatically, however, when team positions are weighted: J.P. Morgan is the clear favorite, thanks to having 17 analysts who win the top spots in their respective sectors thats more than double the No. 1 spots captured by BarCap and four times the number claimed by BofA Merrill (see Weighting the Results, page 92). Survey results reflect the opinions of more than 3,500 buy-side analysts and portfolio managers at over 1,000 firms that manage some $10.7 trillion in U.S. equities.
Ensuring that analysts provide the worldwide perspective that investors demand prompted a research department restructuring at J.P. Morgan, with Grainger rising from deputy to replace Thomas Schmidt as head of U.S. equity research last October, when the latter was tapped to oversee global equity research. The firm is emphasizing collaboration among members of its regional teams via written reports, conference calls and the dialogue that happens day to day behind the scenes between the analysts, Grainger says. Thats a relatively new structure for us and an important evolution.
BarCap is employing a similar strategy. For a worldwide approach to succeed, Linde says, a couple of things have to happen including support for the initiative at the top. If the senior people participate and understand its important, it will become pervasive in the organization, he says. Aligning nonequity forces is also key. Haggerty concurs. BofA Merrill brings its economists, equity strategists, currency strategists, credit strategists, mortgage-backed strategists together for conference calls for big events, he says. For instance, a Sunday evening call in early August on the Standard & Poors downgrade of the U.S.s credit rating drew 1,600 clients and 2,200 more listened after the call was made available for replay.
Citi, which jumps from eighth place to tie for sixth (with Morgan Stanley), picking up three positions, for a total of 26, is also leveraging its entire platform to assist investors. The focus is on global insight, being able to tell clients in the U.S. how what is happening in Asia, Europe, Latin America is going to impact the outlook for the stocks they care about, explains Jonathan Rosenzweig, director of Americas research. Thats different than trying to make a global call, such as which stock in a sector do you buy in the various regions.
Related to investor demand for a global perspective is the soaring interest in macroeconomic research. Ever since the financial crisis began, weve seen macro dominating stock selection, observes Yin Luo of Deutsche Bank Securities, who debuts in first place in Quantitative Research. Before the meltdown an overwhelming majority of money managers upwards of 90 percent, he says were more interested in stock picking than anything else. But since 2008 we have seen the trend changing, and now half our clients say the most interesting, the most relevant topic is macroeconomic analysis, Luo says.
Aware that fund managers are on the lookout for new ideas, Luo is constantly on the hunt for new information sources and over the past year has tested a wide range of databases, including options data, bond data and high frequency trading data. One thing weve been working on and getting a lot of interest from our clients about is borrowing ideas from other asset classes, he explains. We can no longer be just equity investors.
Thats because the stock market is still searching for direction. Nonetheless, portfolio managers still value top-notch insights about companies and sectors, such as those provided by J.P. Morgans C. Stephen Tusa Jr., who captures top honors for the first time in Electrical Equipment & Multi-Industry. Even though shares of many of his companies are well above their 2009 lows, he says, the market is waiting for the next stage of earnings growth and looking for signs that business confidence has returned. Im a believer that, while this isnt a normal cycle, were not going back into recession, Tusa says. This time is different, he adds, because growth is slower than in previous downturns. Among companies in his sector, average organic growth for a five-year period is usually in the 5 to 7 percent range; Tusa forecasts growth for the next three years in the low single digits.
Tusas view is echoed by his colleague Steven Alexopoulos, No. 1 for the first time in Banks/Midcap. On average, midcap bank stocks are down 24 percent this year, Alexopoulos says, but clients are still waiting for the bottom. Investors are looking at bank stocks and saying: Now wait a minute. If you dont have room left on the deposit side to further reduce rates, your margins are going to get really squeezed squeezed to the point where youre no longer earning the cost of capital, he notes. The situation probably wont improve anytime soon. We may not see rates up for another two to three years, he adds. You need the economy to show some strength and consumers and businesses to see increased confidence for rates to go up. All thats going to happen simultaneously and its probably a 2014 event.
Alexopoulos is downright giddy compared with BofA Merrills Tal Liani. Im negative way more negative than others, declares Liani, who finishes in the winners circle for the first time in Data Networking & Wireline Equipment. (Hes also ranked second in Telecom Equipment/Wireless.) The growth rate has slowed down materially in the past three quarters, and investors are still not reflecting it. People know it conceptually, but they havent translated it yet to lower expectations and lower earnings-per-share forecasts.
Investors need an EPS reset, agrees Credit Suisses John Pitzer, in his first appearance at No. 1 in Semiconductors. Companies in his sector are seeing EPS estimates fall further than those in other tech sectors and in the broader economy, with estimates down 8 percent in the second quarter alone, Pitzer says. People are trying to figure out, Is it enough? Is there one more earnings cut to come, or are there going to be several? He believes semiconductor companies in general are back on the path to achieving the 9 to 11 percent growth they enjoyed before the tech bubble burst in 2000 but it will take a while to get there. Weve just gone through an eight- to ten-year period in semis where it was too easy to add capacity, he says. Were now going to go through a three- to five-year period where supply growth is going to structurally slow, and that should give pricing power back to semis. In the near term the big issue is the macro headwinds and how those headwinds are going to impact the sector in the next couple of quarters, he says. Semis are the most cyclical sector in tech, and tech is one of the most cyclical sectors in the market.
Paul Sankey of Deutsche Bank, who tops the roster for the first time in Integrated Oil, can relate to that. His companies are now the cheapest subsector of the cheapest sector of the market, he says. Even so, were still not very positive on the group it has low growth and arguably falling returns at the margin, he explains. The demand side is weak, partly because oil prices are so high and partly because the economy is so feeble. Its a tough environment for people to get excited about integrated oil.
The grass is much greener on Stephen Marescas side of the energy fence. The Morgan Stanley analyst, at No. 1 for the first time in Master Limited Partnerships, says that, even though the product market is weak, demand is strong to develop the infrastructure needed to transport oil and gas from the producers to the consumers and thats where MLPs come in. They have the operating expertise as well as the access to capital. Infrastructure investment is a big driver of cash flow growth for MLPs, a big driver of distribution-per-share growth for MLPs. And we think that growth will continue at least for the next two to four years and likely beyond, Maresca says.
The MLP business model is an advantage when economic growth is tepid and the stock market is volatile. The revenue stream is essentially guaranteed because theyve got a commitment from five or ten oil and gas producers who say, We will commit volumes to you for the next five years, the next ten years, he explains.
Oil prices may be on the high side, but natural-gas prices are low, and demand is growing just about everywhere around the world and the U.S. definitely has a competitive advantage, says Citis Faisel Khan, who tops the roster for the first time in Natural Gas. In fact, there is so much supply in North America that Khan holds a bullish outlook on the competitiveness of U.S. industrial companies, which are energy-intensive companies that use a lot of natural gas. In a global economic slowdown, everybody is hurt, Khan says, but the U.S. maintains a competitive advantage when it comes to energy costs, so that should help, to some degree.
Thats true, says J.P. Morgans Jeffrey Zekauskas, who leads in Chemicals for the first time. The performance of the U.S. economy short of a second long and deep recession is now less important than it historically has been to the chemicals industry, he believes. The global price of chemicals is set by the price of oil, but U.S. chemicals companies use natural gas to make their products and inexpensive prices for natural gas lead to higher profitability, he says. Demand from Brazil, China, India and other emerging markets now accounts for 25 percent of overall business annually for U.S. chemicals companies, compared with 5 percent a decade ago. Thus, Zekauskas says, the profitability of the chemicals industry today should prove higher, more durable and less cyclical than its historical pattern and investors should take advantage while they can. He predicts a quarter or two of contracting domestic demand because the slowing economy is causing customers to reduce inventories, leading to a short period of quarterly earnings pressure. But that wont last long and should present opportunities to purchase chemicals stocks at attractive prices before an acceleration of earnings growth in 2012, he adds.
If only the same could be said of the alternative-energy space. Stephen Chin of UBS, voted the sectors best analyst for the first time, notes that his companies are highly dependent on government subsidies and bank financing. Unfortunately, alternative-energy product prices are still not low enough to be independent of these subsidies, and a lot of banks dont want to take on more debt to lend into these projects, he says.
J.P. Morgans Tycho Peterson, in his first appearance atop the roster in Life Science & Diagnostic Tools, says companies in his sector are facing the same problems. Government grants for academic research can account for anywhere from 25 to 80 percent of funding for these companies. What happens to the core [National Institutes of Health] budget as a function of the supercommittee coming up with $1.2 trillion in budget cuts? he asks, referring to the special bipartisan committee tasked with identifying ways to reduce federal spending. In this environment its hard to see people rushing to own the group, he notes.
One analyst keeping a close eye on the budgets that determine government funding is Andrew Laperriere, new leader of ISI Groups top-ranked team in Washington Research. The supercommittees work is one of the most pressing issues at hand, Laperriere says, with the potential to affect several sectors, such as health care and defense. The 2012 U.S. presidential election one of the most important elections in the last few decades for investors, he believes gains added import because of the state of the economy. The postelection president and Congress must deal with the nations long-term budget problems. If they dont tackle that issue right out of the gate, theres a likelihood of further downgrades and the likelihood of a loss of confidence, he cautions. Laperriere also thinks its very likely that theres going to be another deficit-reduction package thats going to be front and center in 2013 and that will have major sector implications.
Citis Gregory Badishkanian, who claims the pole position for the first time in Leisure, knows only too well the impact the broader economy can have at the sector level; discretionary spending is usually the first cut that cash-strapped consumers make. Its hard to predict a recovery in leisure since we believe its largely predicated on improvements in the macroeconomic environment, he says. Such improvements have been much discussed but remain to be seen.

VIENNA, Austria – Shooting is under way of a film titled "Mein Kampf" that portrays Adolf Hitler as a penniless, unsophisticated young man with failing artistic ambitions who shares a room in Vienna with two Jews, producers said Thursday.
The movie is based on an anti-Hitler farce written by the late Hungarian-born Jewish playwright George Tabori, who encouraged his audience to laugh at villains he portrayed on stage.
The Austrian, German and Swiss co-producers of the movie called it a parable of good and evil, in a release distributed at a news conference in Vienna on Thursday.
"The idea is both simple and subversive: The Jew Schlomo Herzl wants to save the young bumpkin from demise in the big city and by so doing helps give birth to a monster," the release said.
Filming of the production, which has a $4.2 million budget, started in the Austrian capital on Tuesday and is set to be completed in June, said co-producer Martin Lehwald of Germany-based Schiwago Film.
Shooting will shift to the German town of Zittau once the Vienna scenes are completed next week. The film is expected to hit German theaters next year.
In the movie, "Mein Kampf" refers not to Hitler's notorious book in which, among other things, he expressed his hatred of Jews.
Rather, it is the title the character Herzl, played by Goetz George, decides to give a book he wants to write after much back and forth with another central character, the failed cook Lobkowitz, played by Bernd Birkhahn.
Hitler is personified by Tom Schilling.
Lehwald noted it was tough getting the idea off the ground. The project took five years to get going and went through a difficult phase at first because, among other things, it was tough finding people to support it, Lehwald said.
"No one wanted to be first," he said when asked to elaborate.
In addition to Schiwago Film, the movie is being co-produced by Swiss-based Hugofilm Productions GmbH Zuerich, and Austrian-based DOR Filmproduktionsgesellschaft m.b.H. Wien, in cooperation with others such as Austrian broadcaster ORF and French-German television channel Arte.
Lehwald said he hoped the film would become an international success, like another Austrian tale at this year's Oscar Awards.
In February, "The Counterfeiters," the tale of a master forger forced to work for Nazis in a concentration camp, won the foreign-language Oscar.
Directed by Austria's Stefan Ruzowitzky and based on printer Adolph Burger's memoir "The Devil's Workshop," "The Counterfeiters" uses documentary-style handheld camera and quick zooms for a unique look at a little-known World War II story.
Tabori, a legend in Germany's postwar theater world whose avant-garde works confronted anti-Semitism, died in July at the age of 93.
Born into a Jewish family in Budapest on May 24, 1914, Tabori fled in 1936 to London, where he started working for the British Broadcasting Corp., and became a British citizen. His father, and other members of his family, were killed at Auschwitz.
Among his best-known works are "Mein Kampf" and the "Goldberg Variations," another dark farce that pokes fun at the Nazis.
"Mein Kampf" director Urs Odermatt, a Swiss national, appeared enthusiastic about the movie endeavor.
"It's a lot of fun," he said of his first few days on the set.

Study will help integrate shared services in county
Carbon County is completing a study that will help bring shared services to public safety answering points (PSAP) in the state. The PSAP in Carbon is the 911 Communications Center.
During the county commissioners' meeting on Thursday, the board voted to approve a proposal by Essential Management of Pottsville, for a PSAP regional shared services assessment for Northeastern Counties Regional ESInet (NECORE). The total cost of the assessment is $25,000, and will be paid through Act 56 funds and not the county.
Commissioner Wayne Nothstein, chairman, explained the PSAP assessment is a study being done by all counties to see what equipment each county has; and what can be utilized through sharing services to reduce costs for PSAPs in the region.
He noted that the reason for the assessment is a lot of the counties are applying for the same type of equipment so a plan to share services was implemented, making a stronger network, while saving money on upgrades to equipment that are necessary.
In other matters, the board acted on the following items:
• Award the contract for the Old Mauch Chunk Train Station masonry restoration project to low bidder Spotts Brothers Inc. of Schuylkill Haven at a cost of $17,760.
• Appoint Mark Ebbert of Lehighton, fire chief of Mahoning Fire Company and representative of Rapid Response Inc., to the Local Emergency Planning Committee Group VI (firefighting personnel); with Matthew Belasco, Rapid Response Inc., as secondary.
• Approve the HIPPA Privacy and Security policies, effective Jan. 1, 2013, as required by the county's participation in the health insurance consortium of the Pennsylvania County Health Insurance Purchasing Cooperative.
• Appoint Dawn M. Bowman, the county human resources director, as the HIPPA Privacy and Security officer.
• Approve the certification to the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation of the policy and procedure for the consultant selection process associated with the naming of a construction inspection company for the replacement of Carbon County Bridge 16, located along Koch Road in Towamensing Township. The county will utilize the procedure recommended by PennDOT.
• Approve three separate agreements for professional services as conflict counsel in criminal and juvenile matters pending before the Carbon County Court of Common Pleas.
The agreements shall be with attorneys Robert S. Frycklund and Adam Weaver, both of Summit Hill; and the Law Office of Strubinger and Gazo, Palmerton; and will be effective Sept. 1 through Aug. 31, 2014, with two successive annual renewals.
The amount of each agreement will be $25,000, plus reimbursement for photocopies, postage and required mileage outside of the county, with a total number of 40 cases/offenders/assignments during the term of the agreement.
• Approve the Cooperative Purchasing Agreement allowing Carbon County to join the Cooperative Purchasing Network Program, a national governmental purchasing cooperative, and enabling the county to receive a 5 percent discount on Lowe's purchases. Membership into the cooperative is free and will remain in effect unless terminated by either party.
The county also approved the following personnel actions:
• Approve the employment separation of Richard N. Swartley, Jim Thorpe, as a corrections officer at the prison, effective Aug. 21.
• Approve the resignations of Jennifer L. Diefenderfer, Lehighton, and Paul P. Kuropatsky, Delano, as part-time corrections officers at the prison. Diefenderfer's resignation is effective Aug. 3; while Kuropatsky's is Aug. 22.
• Approve the change of status of Patricia A. Rossman, Summit Hill, from assistant purchasing manager trainee, Purchasing; to clerical specialist, Clerk of Courts, effective Aug. 21.
• Approve the change of status of Linda A. Ballet, Lansford, from assistant director, Human Resources; to assistant purchasing manager trainee, Purchasing, effective Aug. 26.

Tried to order flowers for a friends funeral but the website was useless and wouldn't let me complete the order.
Since then I've been bombarded with emails begging me to complete and offering discounts. Despite the fact I've told them I got flowers from elsewhere ( with no problems).
I asked them to stop the emails but they're still sending them.
Don't even try to use this company as you will regret it.
I know I have.
I used Petals florists in Plymouth and they were easy to order, delivered on time. Lovely flowers and they aren't bothering me with stupid emails.
You have been warned.

Hold on to your seat! Star Wars: The Last Jedi finally has a teaser trailer and it is epic.
Under the training of Luke Skywalker, during Rey's Jedi training Skywalker says, "Breathe. Just, breathe. Now reach out. What do you see," while Rey navigates the Force. "Light. Darkness. A balance," she responds. "It's so much bigger." Skywalker responds.
Of course there's footage of space battles where you can catch glimpses of characters Finn and Kylo Ren as well as a crush Darth Vader mask. The trailer ends with one chilling line, "I only know one truth: It's time for the Jedi to end."
The movie is set to hit theaters December 15.

FOREIGN Minister Bob Carr has called on the Coalition to put politics aside and support the Malaysia people swap deal for the good of the nation.
Speaking in Indonesia ahead of a two-day Bali Process meeting on people smuggling Senator Carr said Tony Abbott should do more to work towards a solution on the asylum-seeker issue.
"What I want the opposition in Canberra to do is put Australia's interests before politics," Senator Carr said.
"Enabling that Malaysia deal to proceed is something very specific that would be humane and honour Australia's borders."
The government abandoned its Malaysia Solution after the High Court ruled it unlawful in 2011. It was never brought to parliament for a vote, however the Coalition have said they would oppose it.
Under the deal Australia was to send 800 asylum-seekers to Malaysia in return for accepting 4000 already processed refugees.
Senator Carr is attending the meeting in Bali along with Immigration Minister Brendan O'Connor and the head of the government's people smuggling inquiry Angus Houston. He is co-chairing the forum with Indonesia's Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa.
Other countries, such as Afghanistan will also take part in the talks.
Australia is understood to be planning to ask Indonesia to do more to crack down on corrupt police who take bribes to enable the people smuggling trade.
Indonesia is expected to ask Australia to take more refugees through official channels to lighten their burden.
The issue of human trafficking and slavery will also be addressed at the meeting, including devising laws that would criminalise the practice.

- Arvin Ceria posted a picture of a dog named Saicy who showed sheer devotion for her dying aster
- The photo was posted on Facebook, and was already shared multiple times
- Saicy was likened to Hachiko, who also had the same story of devotion for his owner
Everybody is familiar with the movie Hachiko, a real life story of an Akita dog who was adopted by a Japanese professor.
Since then, the dog would accompany his master to the train station where his master sets off to work.
And every time the professor arrives at the same train station from work, his loyal pet is already there patiently waiting for him. And they walk together as they head home.
In Davao, the same story was told, when a dog, named Saicy, was seen outside the emergency room, barking, wanting to go inside while his master, Elenito Badayon, was fighting for his life.
The photo was taken by Facebook user Arvin Ceria who was on duty at Metro Davao Medical and Research Center where Badayon was rushed by his neighbor due to cardiac arrest.
Ceria posted the photo on Facebook which immediately won the hearts of many netizens in the form og likes and shares.
"Sad to say the patient died. The dog's owner may have been dead, but the love of the dog remains," Ceria said on the same post.
After pronouncing Badayon dead, Saicy and the neighbor who rushed him to the hospital were allowed to go inside the ER.
There, Saicy kept on touching his owner and howled a lot.
Sun Star Davao reported that ever since the first day of Badayon's wake on June 18, Saicy stayed on top of his coffin all day.
READ ALSO: [WATCH] Transgender teen: 'We are not a threat'
When the grieving family of the deceased was interviewed, they stated that the dog hasn't had eaten since the day of his master's death.
They said that Saicy was starting to look pale and weak for refusing to eat anything.
Indeed, Saicy's story is pretty much the local version of the Japanese tale. Saicy remained loyal in the face of her master's demise.
Hachiko now has a monument standing in his memorial for the boundless loyalty he had for his master.
It was in the same spot where he kept waiting for the arrival of his owner.
The place became a local tourist attraction, and every year on April 8, dog lovers come to Shibuya station to honor the devotion of Hachiko.
As for Saicy, who knows, after the years, she might also have her own statue standing right at the Crown Jewel of Mindanao.

I'm sure I'm not alone when it comes to imagining what it would be like leading a life in space. Dwelling within the infinite black of the universe with nothing but thick sheets of metal and glass protecting you from becoming a human popsicle. How it must feel having your organs float around inside of you when immersed in zero gravity.
It must be an immensely humbling experience looking down on our beautiful blue marble and wondering why everyone is so angry when home is so resplendent?
I think it's the freedom and weightlessness that is the most inviting thing about space. Definitely not the transit, I can imagine that being as arduous as hell. But that is one of the reasons I'm so pumped for Zero Gravity Games' impending indie space survival epic Hellion. The juxtaposition of freedom and chaos when space and egos collide.
Set amidst the backdrop of humanity's very first interstellar colonization mission in the 23rd century, a crew of astronauts wake from cryosleep nearly a century after setting off, but not in the man-made paradise they expected. Instead they awake in a graveyard of sorts, surrounded by derelict space stations, unfinished habitats and dead spacecraft.
Check out Hellion's announcement trailer:
We Aim To Misbehave
Your aim is to survive the depths of space by any means necessary. You do this by exploring your surroundings; figuring your way into space stations and crafts, getting your hands on weapons and supplies, crafting, salvaging, you name it, it's all there. Within the frameworks of survival of course.
You can mine asteroids and comets, restore derelict spacecraft for your own use, and even pilot the craft around whilst searching for new old stations, and the like, to liberate them of their goods.
What's even more exciting is the game's seamless transitions between being inside a craft and leaving for a casual jaunt through space. You even have to depressurize the docking bay yourself! Lest you get flung out into space and have to endure the game's permadeath system.
Space Pirates Rejoice
With the game comes an immersive multiplayer system which allows you and your buddies to huddle together and man a small vessel, or even a huge multi-crew ship. You can aggressively board other players' crafts and take them as your own, or betray your own captain and violently take the reigns of your current craft. Man, seriously, this game sounds so, so dope and wonderfully ambitious. There is so much to see and do within the confines of its blistering code.
Here's a look at the game's pre-alpha build in action:
It's still very early days for this project, but already it's shaping up to be something utterly fantastic in my opinion of course. I cannot wait to visit Hellion.
What about you?

"i have been a patient at the hospital ..."
About: The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (Stanmore) The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (Stanmore) Stanmore HA7 4LP
Posted via NHS Choices (as ),
What I liked
i have been a patient at the hospital for many years and whilst i would not complain about my treatment the after care has not been what i would expect from such a high profile hospital
What could be improved
the waiting times at appointments and that you are always having to explain your situation with a different doctor and that the doctors are not aware of the problems making appointments!!!
Anything else?
i was asked to come for an mri scan in july as there was a cancellation i made arrangements to have time off work and duly arrived at 9 a.m the doctor at my previous appointment had told me to make an appointment within two weeks of the scan i realise now that that they ca have no idea how appointments work. I have had an appointment made for myself for the 5th January 2010 i find this totally appalling i am living in constant pain but when i phoned i was informed that this was a busy hospital may i therefore advise that you tell your medical staff this and not to make throwaway comments as this does not help when you are in pain and all you want is your results. I realise that this rant will probably not make any difference but having spent the last weekend in total agony without any relief i felt it was maybe time that i should speak out after all how long can you keep taking pain killers which in the end do no good.l
Response from The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital (Stanmore) 8 years ago
We are sorry that your experience of our hospital has not been as positive as we would like. We endeavour to improve our patients' experience in all areas and, whilst we are seeing more patients than ever before, we appreciate the impact that waiting times can have on patients and the need to manage expectations appropriately.

The story
is simple, and executed better for it. You're basically presented Clark Kent as a boy/man going through changes and having an internal conflict about his identity. This character arc has a two step resolution. The first is him coming to terms with his role as a potential protector of humanity, a conflict fueled by various events in his life, which brings us the first amazing and climactic point of the movie with the birth of Superman. The second is the reality of the existence of Superman on humanity and him coming to peace with what that means for him and how he is perceived. This obviously brings us the major climax of the movie, supported by an ass whooping.
The action is great in the movie. There is fair bit of it.
It feels like The Matrix
. By that, I mean it's quite over the top. This is good because it's Superman. There are a lot of little touches that are shown by Henry Cavill which give more gravitas to the vulnerability of Superman. Moments where he's shaken or staggered. They're just cool moments. The action is both slow and fast which gives an effect of something superhuman occurring. In terms of action, there are about four major setpieces. Then there are a lot of little action moments in between. It really does feel like the first time Superman has been done justice in live action.
There is one moment near the end where you will go, this is fucking Superman.
It's basically the climactic moment. I'll have to re-watch Avengers, but I think I enjoyed the action in this movie more than any other superhero movie because it just had a lot of weight behind it.
You want Superman to succeed.
Henry Cavill is Superman to me now. I like his take on the character. I don't really care necessarily how Superman/Clark Kent is in the comics. But Henry has a really good performance and brings a new Superman for the modern era. One who is powerful, strong, and inhumane in ability, yet also relatable and earns our sympathy. Also, he looks so much more awesome with the beard. It would be amazing having a Superman with a beard. Let him be clean shaven as Clark Kent, but then when he goes all manly and turns into Superman, he grows a beard instantly too. You get used to seeing Cavill without the beard, but it's so weird. Like he was born to have that beard.
Also, damn Zod is badass. Too badass. He comes out with some next level quotes. I don't even--
The weakest aspect of this movie is the Lois Lane/Clark Kent/Superman relationship.
I don't think Amy Adams turned in a bad performance, but in a movie which is quite tight and focused, this aspect was the weakest link. It kind of sticks out. The character on her own is fine, and her little crew are a very pleasant addition, but I think they could've stopped going Hollywood and left a little of the relationship development to a second movie.
Supporting cast is strong. Kevin Costner is really cool.
The My-Cocaine of this movie. He's not in it very long, but maybe I like those father figure characters. Also, Morpheus being all Morpheus and being pretty cool again.
The music is very nice. At times slow and emotional, and at others sweeping and epic.
The new theme is good.
Different, but good. It fits the Man of Steel.
I think I chose to compare this to Batman Begins for a few reasons. It feels similar, it's also character focused, and it does a fantastic job of making you anticipate the next movie. There is a nice blend of serious character focus, and lighthearted humour in the movie.
The villains for the sequel are somewhat hinted
, and this is a really strong first outing. I'm definitely curious to see what happens with the sequel. They could make an amazing movie like The Dark Knight, or like Iron Man 2, turn out a pile of crap after a solid first movie. Who knows, but as it stands, there will be hyperbole when people see this move. I'm sure of it. That's because it's good, and one of the best superhero movies.
More importantly, it's brought Superman from being that little pussy who is always in the shadow of the Goddamn Batman, to more of an equal standing.

Discussion in 'TV & Media' started by NeroShrimp, Jul 14, 2014.
^Good post.
About Bond themes: One of my favorites is Sheryl Crow's theme to Tomorrow Never Dies - except for the opening line, which still creeps me WAY the hell out:
"Darling I'm killed...I'm in a puddle on the floor..."
What the FUCK?
Maybe they should have gone with Woody Allen.
If we're counting Bond parodies, it's worth noting that Moore first played Bond in 1964:
Have you not seen many Bond movies? His love interests get murdered all the time. Not defending that as an artistic choice, but in the 007 franchise context, your alarm is... strange.
I like that a lot more than what they settled on.
And the man who portrays this quite well is Craig.
For a good reason why Bond's like you said he is, read the short story Quantum of Solace, and then this synopsis/analysis of why Bond's like he is.
I know everyone loves Connery, and he originated and was very good in the role, but if you read Fleming's original novels, Daniel Craig is the closest to Fleming's conception of Bond, with Dalton a close second.
Of course there's a lot of death in the films, it's just kind of weird to hear it in a SONG lyric.
Reportedly the song is from the POV of Paris Carver. Even some of her dialogue is similar to Crow's lyric:
"It's murder on relationships"/"It's Murder on our love affair."
I actually prefer the more traditional song heard in the credits-K.D Lang's Surrender-which was also used as the basis for the movie's recurring action 'theme.'
Not really, death is hinted at in a few Bond songs.
"A View to a Kill"
Meeting you, with a view to a kill
"License to Kill"
Got a license to kill
It's the kiss of death fromMister Goldfinger.
"The Man With the Golden Gun"
One golden shot means another poor victim
^ I would guess that even in the Bond themes that do mention death, most are not in the first person POV of someone who has been killed. That might fit The Walking Dead better than 007.
I'm very much in that Moore-bashing camp, but that's an excellent way to put his run, and it's made me rethink my stance just a bit. He won't be #1 anytime soon on my personal list, but there's a bit of newfound appreciation for his run.
If my post has caused one person to give Moore the benefit of the doubt, I'm gratified.
Reportedly there was a lot of doubt regarding the life of the movie series after Connery left...conventional wisdom back in the day seemed to be that it would go the way of Connery and the 60s. The generally poor reception of Lazenby and OHMSS only supported that view. Moore's run not only kept the franchise going, but very successfully; it proved beyond a doubt that the series could be a success under different lead actors; it allowed for a new generation of Bond fans to come aboard during his run, including myself; and when he was ready to pass the torch, those of us who'd been wanting a different approach to the character got Dalton, Brosnan, and Craig. In the long run, Moore's stewardship did a lot of good for the franchise.
And FWIW, though Dalton is my traditional personal favorite Bond, and OHMSS is my personal favorite movie...taking a more objective view, I consider the "best" Bond film, as a whole package, to be The Spy Who Loved Me. YMMV.
That song also has some of the most blatantly sexual lyrics of any Bond song:
Love is required
Whenever he's hired
He comes just before the kill
Oh myyyy...
I'm glad some of you guys voted for Timothy Dalton. He's an underrated Bond. He's my second favorite actor to play the part.
Sean Connery
[/end thread]
I totally understand that. I was just stating my own personal favorite and he is also the best in my eyes as well. That's why I made the polls. I just wanted to share that. I agree that I should have been more specific on the polls. However, I would say just ignore what I said and just focus on who the best James Bond is. Thank you for clarifying though.
Lazenby, hands down. With Craig as a close second.
Separate names with a comma.

Anand J. Thakur. pp. 432. LWW, 2013. EAN : 9788184738711
Locking plates are popular implants in fracture management offering mechanical and biological advantages, especially for the osteoporotic fractures that are increasingly common.
This book is divided into 2 sections: the first covers basic science and principles of bone healing and plate osteosynthesis; the second covers region-specific applications of locking plates.
The basic concepts discussed are suitable both for residents preparing for fellowship examinations and for practicing orthopaedic surgeons using the devices regularly or considering the financial implications of switching from conventional to locking plates.
Practical topics, including indications for locking plates, plate length and screw density, are discussed in depth. The chapters are comprehensive and include important discussions on complications and implant removal.
The second section comprehensively covers all regions from clavicle to calcaneum. There is a useful chapter on paediatric applications of locking plates. The chapters are written in a practical format, from indications to surgical techniques, which are discussed step by step, accompanied by illustrations and boxes that contain quick references. There is an extensive literature review with a detailed reference list after each chapter. However, while the author has quoted a number of operative techniques described in the literature, he does not mention their ease of application or usefulness, requiring the readers to be cautious in applying the steps. For example, in the section on proximal humerus fractures, the plate-joystick technique, using two Kirschner wires for reduction of a varus humeral head, is quoted, but it is not mentioned that this technique is often difficult to control, especially in osteoporotic bone.
Certain chapters in this book deserve particular mention. The chapter on minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis is elegant, with detailed descriptions of methods of direct and indirect reduction of fractures with different tools, but the simpler method of percutaneous application of bone clips is not mentioned, though in most instances it can produce perfect reduction. The chapter dealing with distal radius fracture is excellent in depicting steps of volar locking plate fixation; however it has no mention of the dorsal horizon view X-ray, which allows intraoperative detection of dorsal penetration of locking screws. This complication can cause extensor tendon rupture, and is difficult to detect even with careful fluoroscopic screening.
The strength of this book is in the comprehensive discussion on all aspects of locking plates from concepts to applications in all body regions. I particularly enjoyed the abundant illustrations, which appear on almost every page. My only slight disappointment is that all the images are monochrome - more colour images will enrich the book.
In summary, Dr Thakur has produced a comprehensive text on all aspects of locking plates. It provides good materials for all surgeons who are taking care of patients with fractures.

SAN DIEGO - Senator Ben Hueso (D-San Diego) introduced Senate Joint Resolution 22, which urges Congress to appropriate $248 million in funding, as proposed by the President's Fiscal Year 2017 Budget, to complete Phase II of the Calexico West Land Port of Entry Reconfiguration and Expansion project.
"We need to continue to push for infrastructure improvements in our ports of entry,†stated Senator Hueso.  "Reducing barriers to cross-border travel and trade is to everyone's benefit.  By expanding Calexico's Port of Entry, we as Californians have a greater opportunity to improve our economic prosperity and success.  These enhancements will not only broaden our options but will also transform the way we travel by making it more convenient, fast and accessible.â€
Phase II will ensure completion of the project, which will improve domestic supply chains, strengthen our national security, reduce the Port's carbon footprint, and facilitate economic growth, not only for the Imperial County and California, but for the entire nation.  The project will include additional site-work, an expanded pedestrian processing facility, administrative offices, and six additional northbound Privately Owned Vehicle (POV) inspection lanes.
"The inclusion of $248 million in funding for Phase II of the Calexico West Land Port of Entry reconfiguration and expansion project in the Financial Services and General Government Appropriations bill will bring the needed resources to our border region in order to enhance the quality of life to our residents. It is our very own California-Mexico border communities that are most impacted by the wait times and poor air quality standards,†said Assembly member Eduardo Garcia, Co-Author of SJR 22.  "It is our goal to create greater opportunities to address a series of issues that are affecting not only the economic vitality opportunities in the region but more importantly the public health and well-being of the people that live here.â€
The General Accountability Office and the Department of Homeland Security estimate that $6 billion in border infrastructure is needed to fulfill their mission of preventing unlawful entry and smuggling while facilitating legitimate trade and tourism.
California exports to Mexico amounted to $26.8 billion in 2015, a 5.5 percent increase from 2014.  Computers and electronic products remained California's largest exports, accounting for 25.1 percent of all California exports to Mexico. Exports of transportation equipment and machinery from California to Mexico grew to total almost $5 billion; with chemicals and electrical equipment continuing to be strong export sectors as well.
Senate Joint Resolution 22 is supported by the City of El Centro, City of Holtville, Calexico Chamber of Commerce, El Centro Chamber of Commerce, Imperial Valley Joint Chambers of Commerce, Imperial Mexicali Binational Alliance and the Imperial County Transportation Commission.
Phase I of the Expansion project is currently underway and is expected to be completed in 2018.

A MORE radical approach is needed towards organic farming, delegates at a major farming conference was told.
Farmers, policymakers and academics were among the 200 delegates who travelled to Cardiff last week for the Soil Association's first Welsh National Conference.
The delegates heard from a range of speakers about the need to develop a charter for farming which is both economically and environmentally sustainable.
Speakers included Carwyn Jones, Minister for Agriculture and Rural Development, Patrick Holden, Director of the Soil Association, and leading representatives from environmental, farming and cultural organisations, including RSPB Wales, the Institute of Welsh Affairs, the Countryside Council for Wales and the Welsh Development Agency.
Calling for a shake-up in the perception of farming, and in particular organic farming, Patrick Holden, Soil Association Director, said, 'The Welsh public have a crucial role in helping support a vibrant rural economy. Wales is well placed to become a beacon for change, reconnecting consumer support for farming and building a relationship of trust in the food chain.'
He said farmers had lost the confidence of the consuming public, and they had to win it back.
'We need a new chapter in agriculture, the farming community has to regain its status in the community,' he said.
The public he said have to be told a 'better story' about farming, while in organic farming Wales has the potential to lead the way with a radical approach, perhaps resulting in entire regions switching to organic production.
Assembly Rural Affairs Minister Carwyn Jones said new priorities were at the forefront of many farmers' minds as they struggled with the massive change brought about by the devastation of the foot-and-mouth crisis.
Foot-and-mouth, he said, had been as disruptive to the organic sector as to traditional agriculture, and had prevented significant progress in developing organic farming in Wales.
The growing number of calls to the Organic Conversion Information Service Helpline showed, he said, that many farmers were now interested in the organic option, and the rural recovery plan for Wales included various initiatives to help the organic sector.
'The Farming Connect service, to be launched on Monday, includes the establishment of a register of specialist organic advisers, and detailed conversion planning advice will be available as part of farm business development plans.
'Foot and mouth has dealt a severe blow to the rural community in Wales, but opportunities are out there. I hope farmers will seize the opportunity so that in years to come we will have a thriving rural community.'

In a nutshell, Student Leadership & Success Studies is an academic department dedicated to helping UVU students have a successful university experience. We offer courses and programming opportunities for students to develop effective study, leadership, and personal skills in a positive, engaging and challenging, environment.
SLSS courses not only help you maximize your potential as a student, but also in nearly every aspect of your life. Students enrolled in SLSS courses report improved study habits, grades, and overall personal effectiveness. Comments like this one from a former student are typical:
"I think every student at this university needs to take this class. It was very helpful for my student life, as well as my personal life as a friend and family member."
SLSS houses the UVU Mentor Program which is a group of peer mentors that exists to help students make a successful transition into college. They partner with faculty in SLSS courses. For more extensive information about the program, including how to become a UVU Mentor, click the UVU Mentor Program link on our site.
FYE stands for First Year Experience. At UVU, we have a goal of helping all of our students have a common experience so they feel connected to each other and the institution. That goal is accomplished in many ways including a common book to read, student success courses, and participation in campus activities, etc. SLSS offers several course options to assist in this FYE goal, in particular, SLSS 1000 University Student Success. This course is recommended for incoming freshmen and all students who could benefit from improved habits of study and learning and motivation strategies. For a list of our courses, see the Courses link on our site.
For general questions about FYE, visit the First Year Experience website.
We are located in the atrium area of the Losee Center Building (LC) 407. Please don't hesitate to Contact Us.
"I took my SLSS Class as a freshmen and I'm so glad I did. It's the best decision I've made in my college career. When I first came to UVU it felt like I didn't know anyone. Because of my two SLSS classes, I run into friends every time I walk down the hall. When my life gets crazy, I think back to the SLSS stress management class and the skills I learned to help me handle it all."
"When I first came to UVU, I wasn't very confident in my academic skills and doubtful that I could succeed. In my first class, Jeff was assigned as my mentor. He believed in me and gave me the confidence I needed to do well in my classes. The next semester I had another great mentor. He gave me advice about school and my personal life that really made an impact. Because of their encouragement, I am a UVU Mentor myself and so much more then I used to be. Thanks to the program, it has been one of the best years of my life and I'm in a very positive place."

Is there a way to check all answers given after test completion?
Hi Felipe, you should be able to go back the the questions section on the online exam to see what you gave as your answer.
Where exactly is that on the Law of the Game page (http://laws.worldrugby.org/?)?
Please go to the "questions" section where you will have answered the questions.
I do apologize but I cannot find the section you mentioned.
Hi Felipe, apologies, when you go to a certain section in the website, for example, law 4, then you will see "go to law exam" on the left handside like below.
