I'm trying to decide if I should buy a Honda Accord or a Ford Fusion. My friends tell me Honda has a better name, but I prefer the Ford styling. Can you help?
The Honda Accord and Ford Fusion represent the classic battle among car makers in the U.S.: domestic or import? Honda, along with other Japanese automobile manufacturers, has ample manufacturing facilities in the United States. Yet, its vehicles are considered imports when compared to the domestic big three of Ford, GM, and Chrysler.
Which is better? That's a question that can only be answered by each individual car buyer. However, let's continue our comparison of these two highly-rated, moderately-priced sedans.
EX-L vs SEL
Both the Accord and Fusion are family-size 4-door models. For the purpose of our comparison, we're looking at the Honda Accord EX-L and the Ford Fusion I4 SEL. These 4-cylinder vehicles get excellent gas mileage—34 and 33 mpg/hwy respectively—and have similar safety features. The exception is the fact that the Fusion does not offer active head restraints, while the Accord offers these as standard equipment.
Both vehicles have the same manufacturer warranty programs: 3-year/36,000 mile limited warranty (commonly called the bumper-to-bumper warranty), and 5-year/60,000 mile powertrain warranty on the engine and transmission.
However, the Fusion takes the advantage over the Accord when it comes to price.
Best Buy?
We have to make sure we're comparing apples-to-apples when it comes to price. Both the Accord EX-L and the Fusion SEL come standard with leather seats, heated front seats, 17-inch alloy wheels, satellite radio, MP3 and auxiliary jacks for the audio system, and many other comfort and luxury features. However, the Fusion lists the power moonroof as optional, while it's standard on the Accord. And tinted glass is optional with the Accord, but comes standard on the Fusion.
The base Manufacturer's Suggest Retail Price (MSRP) for the Accord EX-L is $27,355. The Fusion I4 SEL is $24,805. When we equalize the comparison by using similar-equipped models, the Ford Fusion is still less expensive--in fact, a whopping $1,680 less than the Accord: $26,425 compared to the Accord's MSRP of $28,105. The Ford Fusion has a significant price advantage.
Take a Test Drive
Is the Honda Accord worth an extra $1,680 compared to the Ford Fusion? You probably won't know until you take each one for a test drive. How is the visibility? Do the dogs fit in the back seat? How about the kids? Is there enough trunk space? Do you like the available colors? And how does it drive on different road conditions?
When I was Internet Manager for a major car dealer, I went on hundreds, and probably thousands of test drives with my customers. I discovered that no matter how good a car looks on paper, you won't actually know if it's the car for you until you take it for a spin. It's important to test drive each vehicle that lands on your short-list. Chances are once you have hands-on experience with each one, it will become apparent which vehicle is your best buy. Good luck.

Cranston, RI (PressExposure) October 28, 2011 -- Electro Standards Laboratories, Cranston, RI, announces the Model 7810 8-to-1 HD-15 Switch with 10/100 Base-T LAN Access. The Model 7810 enables sharing a single port HD-15 interface device connected to the COMMON port among eight other devices connected to the Channel 1-8 ports. Local access is via front-panel pushbuttons. Remote access can be accomplished by a 10/100 Base-T connection.
Utilizing the user-friendly remote graphical user interface (GUI) is simple. To connect the switch from a computer having access to the LAN to which the Model 7810 LAN port is connected, simply launch a standard Web browser and type in the appropriate IP address. Java JRE 6.0 or higher installed on the PC is required to run this GUI. If the JRE is installed, the Java Applet will be automatically uploaded from the switch upon connection. If not, the user must install the Java Runtime Engine.
The default password should be changed to a secure password as soon as the user first connects to the unit. Once logged in, the user can complete the following functions: change the switch position; lockout control of the switchs front panel; change the login password; and re-configure the switchs IP address. This is all accomplished with simple point and click operation.
Pins 1 through 12 of the HD15 interface are switched. The Model 7810 is transparent to data speed and format. The switch setup and configuration access is limited by password protection. Front panel LEDs display switch position and power status. All switched signals are passed via copper contact relays that maintain their position and continuity in the event of power loss.
The switch is housed in an attractive anodized black box packaging that provides EMI/RFI shielding. Custom length HD15 cables are available from Electro Standards for switch installation. This switch is offered in a rack-mount configuration that measures 19 W x 3.5 H x 10 D (48.3 x 8.9 x 25.4 cm). The unit weighs 4.5 lbs. (2.0 Kg). This switch is offered at a discount to U.S. government agencies via GSA Schedule GS-35F-0286V. The switch is also available for export. Electro Standards staff of knowledgeable sales engineers is available to assist with product and application questions: 401-943-1164, email@example.com.

Unsustainable Budget Trends
February 9, 2004
The most important chapter in President Bush's 2005 budget is entitled "Stewardship." Buried in an appendix volume where reporters are unlikely to notice, it paints a chilling picture of long-term budgetary trends, says Bruce Bartlett.
- It shows federal spending rising from about 20 percent of the gross domestic product this year to 53 percent in 2080; much of this comes from interest on the debt, which rises by 20 percent of GDP.
- Spending for Social Security is only projected to rise from 4 percent of GDP to 6.8 percent in 2080, but Medicare is projected to rise from 2 percent to more than 12 percent over the same period.
The addition of an expensive new unfunded benefit to Medicare for prescription drugs means that future spending will be much, much greater than projected. When people are given something that is heavily subsidized, they use a lot more of it. Consequently, we can expect drug spending by the elderly to rise very rapidly, especially since drug prices are also likely to rise as demand outstrips supply, says Bartlett.
The budget itself admits that these trends are "unsustainable." Since Congress will never reduce benefits to retirees, the only way to make the trends sustainable is by raising taxes significantly, notes Bartlett.

GARETH JENKINS last night dismissed speculation linking him with the vacant director of rugby post at Leicester.
Reports in the Midlands suggested the twice-Heineken Cup winners have targeted the Llanelli Scarlets supremo.
But Jenkins told The Western Mail, "There are a lot of rumours but as far as I am concerned there is no truth in this. I am contracted to the Scarlets."
Leicester chief executive Peter Wheeler admitted that those they are interested in are under contract and getting the right man was taking longer than expected.
"The difficulty is that people are in contractual situations. But we will have a new director of rugby by the end of this season."

The first clip for directing duo Longman Leung and Sunny Luk's upcoming actin/thriller "Cold War" is interesting in that it only contains interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. Although it's kind of cool to hear what the cast and crew have to say about the project, I'm more interested in seeing footage of stars Aaron Kwok and Tony Leung Ka Fai being total badasses. I don't think that's too much to ask, right? The bald head makes Leung look severely dangerous, and I'm pretty curious to see his character in action.
As always, a handy synopsis to light your way:
In Asia's safest city, the police have long been untouchable. Approaching midnight in Hong Kong, police headquarters receives an anonymous call: a fully-loaded police van carrying the forces, most advance equipment and five highly trained officers has disappeared off the grid. The hijackers possess direct knowledge of police procedures. They're already steps ahead. The police must meet a list of demands to ensure the hostage's release, including the delivery of a huge ransom. Any delay will cost lives. The clock is ticking.
In addition to Kwok and Leung, "Cold War" also features Eddie Peng, Aarif Rahman, Charlie Yeung, Gordon Lam, Byron Mann, and Grace Huang. The film is currently scheduled to open this summer in China. The rest of the world will just have to play the waiting game.

Ayurvedic Remedies For Hypertension
If a person has continuous BP readings of 140 over 90 then he/she is having high blood pressure. This problem is very common and with changing time, it is happening at very early age also. Blood pressure increases when heart muscles pump out blood in arteries with more pressure than normal. This causes damage to blood vessels resulting in hardening of arteries. Hypertension increases risk of cardiac arrest and strokes which are life threatening conditions.
Ayurvedic Remedies For Hypertension
Being overweight, smoking, too much consumption of salt in diet, excessive alcoholism, old age, thyroid disorders, kidney diseases, genetic and hereditary factors are generally responsible for raising blood pressure. With increasing impurities in food materials, routine diet fails to keep heart muscles healthy and it takes relatively long time to lower down blood pressure. Herbal supplements can help a person to control high BP in a natural manner.
Stresx Capsules
Such supplements do not raise other disorders and are useful for people of all ages. One can use Stresx capsules which are the most effective ayurvedic remedies for hypertension. These supplements contain powerful ingredients which increase absorption of nutrients by body. Proper nourishment improves health of heart muscles which then pump out blood with normal pressure.
Stresx Capsules
Stresx capsules prevent narrowing and hardening of arteries to allow smooth flow of blood. This reduces blood pressure effectively and gives relief from hypertension. Herbal ingredients of these capsules calm down central nervous system to reduce the effects of stress, tension and depression. These capsules help kidney and liver to purify blood which is regulated in whole body to provide vital nutrients and oxygen.
Ingredients In StresxCapsules
Regular use of Stresx capsules keeps heart healthy for prolong time and reduces risk of strokes and cardiac arrest. These supplements also reduce the effects of other problems like thyroid disorder, etc., which affect blood pressure. Stresx capsules contain Aam, Arjun, Shilajit, Jadwar, Shankhpushpi, Kahu, MotiBhasma, Chotachand, Ashwagandha, Elaychichoti, Safedmusli, Shilajit, Champa, Kesar, Jyotishmati, and Taj.
Ingredients In Stresx Capsules
All these herbs have been used in Ayurveda from years to treat problems related with cardiovascular system and blood pressure. These herbs promote cardiac health and healthy functions of heart muscles. These herbs provide essential nutrients and minerals which help to overcome various deficiencies in body that affect healthy functions of heart.
Ingredients In Stresx Capsules
Blend of these herbs clears blockage from blood vessels to reduce pressure in blood flow. Antioxidants present in these herbs prevent cellular damage from toxins and free radicals. Cardiovascular health improves due to presence of anti-inflammatory and anti-stressor properties. These powerful herbs control cholesterol and strengthen heart muscles.
Stresx Capsules
Regular use of Stresx capsules helps to control behavioral changes and emotional issues also like anxiety, anger, nervousness, etc., related with high BP. These capsules do not make one dependent on them. Irrespective of the age, Stresx capsules give amazing benefits and improve overall health along with heart health.
Stresx Capsules
It is recommended to use Stresx capsules for 3 to 4 months consistently to avail full benefits and lower high blood pressure naturally. It is suggested to also reduce salt consumption to keep blood pressure under control.

Do you think we are #Likeable? Help us win "Digital Company of the Year" by voting here: on.mash.to/tStoVu
— Likeable Media(@LikeableMedia) December 10, 2011
See? Much more interactive than any screenshot could ever hope to be. There is big potential here for the blogosphere and even the "traditional" web to make itself more social by embedding Tweets and taking the conversation over to Twitter.
Unified Design
One thing is for sure about New Twitter: it's pretty! And now, it looks the same everywhere you go. With 43% of Twitter users accessing the network via mobile devices, it's no wonder that they've turned their focus back to developing their mobile apps. Both the iPhone and Android flavors of the app sport the same new and improved look and feel. Even the recently-acquired TweetDeck got a facelift to match the interface. One of my favorite features of the new Android app is the ability to @reply someone from the top of their profile. I can just tap and start typing my message to someone without looking for a "Reply" button. Also, the #Discover button lets you browse the hottest trending topics and not only read tweets associated with them, but find out why they're trending. Why is this good for a brand? A more aesthetically pleasing interface means people will be using it for longer periods of time, and that's more time they'll be engaging with your brand. The ability to more easily engage from your profile page lowers the barrier to entry and encourages interaction. And finally, improved hashtag surfing makes it easier for users to join conversations all over Twitter.
Ultimately, the New Twitter is much simpler and straightforward. It's a pleasure to use, and I think we'll be seeing a big increase in the user base as the new look rolls out over the coming weeks. Anyone can tweet. But now, more and more people will actually want to tweet when they see how easy it is.
Have you tried the New Twitter? Do you love it? Hate it? Let me know in the comments below!

text: Hi, So I'm creating a site analysis, which includes a map of the city. I want to highlight the area of the city that are relevant to my topic i.e restaurant, pubs cafe etc. Instead of having 4,5 or 6 different colours on one page, I want to use 'layers' for each of the types of shop for instance. What I will end up with is 6 pages or more with 'random' colour fills that represent the type of building, overlaying the city map (black and white) I have some Acetate but the ink does not dry. Is there anywhere in the UK that I can buy A3 acetate? I understand that I can photocopy onto acetate, however that is not an option... Thank You

I traded binary options on Anyoption. I made 2 trades. On both of these trades the chart that shows in or out of the money ( put and calls), disappears in the last 2 seconds of the hour long trade and flys straight up or down in the opposite direction of the buy, either a put or call. And I lost money both times. It is definitely rigged. I have put in a request of a refund of the remaining $36.25 to be put back on my card. Initial deposit required is $100.00.

Sakura Sensations Ebook
Cherry Blossom Magic In Japan
by Michelle Herring

Print Book
About the Ebook
Explore the pages of this pictorial essay to experience the rich symbolism, cultural significance and ethereal beauty of the Japanese cherry blossom. The ornamental cherry trees, known as Sakura in Japan, not only announce the closing days of winter and the arrival of spring, but are also revered as an omen of good fortune in a society deeply rooted in tradition. For thousands of years to celebrate the arrival of the Sakura, the Japanese people have organized "hanami parties" gathering under the flowering trees to honor their beauty and ponder the transient nature of life. The cherry blossoms bloom in extreme beauty followed by a quick death due to their abbreviated blooming season, thought to be much like the samurai warriors who were considered to have relatively short life spans.

Guess I'll just wait for the PS4 version
Not much of an article, more of a "hey guys come check out this "funny" video i found!"
It might as well be a facebook post, high quality post Kotaku! Keep up the good work./s
Wish Sega could have made a sequel to Super Soldier
Oh hon hon hon *French laugh*
This man here is insane I tells ya
I thought everyone was forced to buy a Kinect 2? How can you sell it if everyone you would sell it to already has one?
One in my living room.... One in my bedroom... One in the bathroom... And one in my fridge, for over clocking.
You can't steal something that is listed for free. End of story.
To go back and ban someone for getting a free deal is just bad customer service.
I liked the thought of it but the way to access everything in AC: Liberation was not very clear.
I really liked the way AC2 / Bloodlines did things.
Either way it's a nice perk for owners of both.
It's a great game, I just wish they explained the RPG elements a little better. I played for 45 mins before I figured out how to customize my character.
Hey, that movie was great
If it's anything like the PSN/disc versions, the saves are different
Thanks for paying $60/year for the last 10 years, here's some old crap no one else wants
Can I get in with remote play yet?
it's one of, if not THE funnest games of all time once you learn how to play it properly.
I think this style of play is fading.
They should have some more innovative play in the game, sort of like how Shadow Complex had the FPS shooting gallery on occasion or zooming close ups. Just something to freshen up the genre
There's going to be a GOTY edition eventually for sure.
You bought in at the best price possible. Even if you bought the season pass right now, you would probably have to wait a looong time before the GOTY came out and dropped price to get it to the same price point you've already bought in at.
What I'm saying is, don't sell now, because you will do a lot of work to get back to the same place you are now.
I had so many memorable moments with REO online, it was great.
I remember that hotel scenario that made you split up, when the licker comes out of nowhere at the end. I had found the grenade launcher by accident earlier and saved the day for my team. So cool.
Same here! It would be awesome if true
Just look at the crap they did with Uncharted 3, your season pass only got you so much.

I've mentioned that I'm hoping to retire in the coming year before it and I get to be a whole lot older and a big concern, not just for me, is how much gold I've got saved up for my golden years (and the answer is, too often, 'not enough.'
So imagine my delight the other morning to have an email from James Comey, the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation; I'm sure you've heard of him. He was in the news a lot just before the Hillary Rodham Clinton 2016 Presidential campaign bus got t-boned on the way to the coronation by a yuuuge Cheeto-colored bad haircut (with small hands). Yeah, that James Comey.
Calm down. I'm not going launch more poor sport histrionics at our miracle of democracy. As soon as Mr. Trump produces the long form of his birth certificate, I'll be silent.
Actually, I'll be quiet as I count my money because as I said, I had great news from Mr. Comey who is now working some kind of a side-gig in a boiler room operation in Lagos it seems. But in case this isn't really a scam, I've blackened out parts of the email and phone numbers because I don't want to share my happiness with anyone. Ever.
Speaking of which, here's Jim's tidings of great joy:
"From: James B Comey mailto:"Dx."@exxate.xxn.xx.jp 8:51 AM
"This message is coming to you from FBI office here, We write to inform you that your (Inheritance winning awarded funds of $ 2.4 million) has been totally converted into an ATM Master Card and it's to be deliver to your address via courier service, Be inform that the courier delivery company will deliver the card with all the manuals and instructions both with the PIN code to access the Card upon receipt.

New recruit Michael Paterson is set to start for Blues against Leinster this Saturday, 6.30pm kick off.
The big Kiwi back row forward made his debut for the Blues against Exeter in a pre season friendly, but the match against the former Heineken Cup champions will be his competitive debut having sat out last Saturday's win over Edinburgh.
The Blues will look to build on the victory when they travel to the Irish capital but know it will be a big ask with their only previous victory in Dublin in the Magners League was 22-18 against Leinster at Donnybrook in March 2004.
There are three other changes in the pack to the starting XV that defeated Edinburgh with Tom Davies, Deiniol Jones and Sam Warburton all starting having been on the bench last weekend.
The only change in the backs sees Dafydd Hewitt coming in for Tom Shanklin at centre.

Here's a line graph of my Happiness against Time for the year 2009:
As you can see November had not been all that great for me. In fact it's probably the worst month of the year: 2 deaths and then I got sick twice resulting in two cancelled trips. :(
Oh well, best to remember that life is a series of ups and downs. Cherish the good times and when you're down, it's good to know that you've had your fun and can look forward to a possible upswing in the near future.
Speaking of remembering the good bits, Gwen Bell (my blog find of the year!) has a fantastic idea for the month of December (I know this is a little late). It's called The Best of 2009 Blog Challenge . It's a look back on the parts you like best in the year 2009, so go ahead and check it out. I was really tempted to join in the fun but that wouldn't be too wise: holiday season projects + many days off work last month = large Christmas Backlog Cake.

A riveting personal exploration of the health-care crisis facing inner-city communities, written by an emergency-room physician who grew up in the very neighborhood he is now serving.
Sampson Davis is best known as one of three friends from inner-city Newark who made a pact in high school to become doctors. Their book The Pact and the work they have done with the Three Doctors Foundation have inspired countless young men and women to strive for goals they otherwise would not have dreamed they could attain.
In this book, Dr. Davis looks at the health-care crisis in the inner city from a rare perspective: that of a doctor who works on the front line of emergency medical care in the community where he grew up and as a member of that community who has faced the same challenges as the people he treats every day. He also offers invaluable practical advice for those living in such communities, where conditions like asthma, heart disease, strokes, obesity, and AIDS are disproportionately endemic.
Dr. Davis has struggled with many of the issues troubling his patients. His sister, a drug addict, died of AIDS; his brother is now paralyzed and confined to a wheelchair as a result of a bar fight; and he himself did time in juvenile detention - a wake-up call that changed his life. He recounts recognizing a young man with critical gunshot wounds as someone who was arrested with him when he was a teenager during a robbery gone bad; describes a patient with sickle cell anemia, whose case is more complicated than he understands; and explains the difficulty he has convincing his landlord and friend, an older woman, to go to the hospital for much-needed treatment.
With empathy and hard-earned wisdom, Living and Dying in Brick City presents an urgent picture of medical care in our cities and an important resource guide for anyone at risk, anyone close to those at risk, and anyone who cares about the fate of our cities.
"This book is living proof that behind the boarded up windows of one of America's most neglected cities, beyond the sorrow and pain, there is much more than we've come to expect. There is hope. There is change. There is redemption for Brick City. The book will open your eyes to a part of the world that most of us only see from behind the wheel of a tightly locked car. Sampson Davis is not afraid to lift heavy objects in this world. I'm glad he shared his journey with us, so that we know it is possible." (James McBride, New York Times best-selling author of The Color of Water)
"An emergency-room doctor relates his experiences to the wider emergency of inadequate health care for inner-city residents in places like Newark, N.J., where he grew up and practiced medicine.... A page-turning wake-up call." (Kirkus Reviews)

A little too much information. But interesting.
- S L Covington
True,very realistic and a very exciting read. You
Thought provoking and in many instances sad.
The realism, the human touch as well as the inclusion of the nurses.
It was difficult to single out one character since Mr.Hite was so excellent. I guess it would have to be Mr.Tait and his daughter. After receiving the results of his x ray his concern was more for his daughter than himself.
Narration by Mr. Hite was so realistic.
Most definitely.
Since I am an RN the inclusion of the nurses in this book is almost unheard of by most MD writers. Also coming from a very similar background it was very easy for me to relate to many of the characters and situations.
Dr.Davis is a rare breed on so many levels. I have read his other collaborations and given so many copies to the young men in my church. May he continue to work and share the much needed knowledge in the ER. He probably sees as many patients as the PCP since patients tend to go where they feel comfortable. Even many of those with medical coverage.

Iran men's team rolls into West Asia Baseball Cup semi-finals
The Iran men's national baseball team has earned an easy spot in the semi-finals of the 13th edition of the West Asia Baseball Cup, after the Indian squad could not participate in the regional event because they had not been issued Pakistani visas.
The Iranian sportsmen were scheduled to face their Indian counterparts at the multi-purpose Jinnah Stadium in the Pakistani capital city of Islamabad for a Group A fixture on Saturday.
They automatically clinched the victory as the opposite team did not show up to the contest, and lost as the forfeiting team.
The Iran men's national baseball team is slated to take on Sri Lanka on Sunday in a match that will determine the Group B topper.
While Iraq, Nepal and the host nation Pakistan are pitted against each other in Group A, the Islamic Republic of Iran and Sri Lanka form Group B.
The top two teams in each group (five teams in total) will qualify for the knockout stage.
The 13th edition of West Asia Baseball Cup opened in Islamabad, Pakistan, on February 25 and will conclude on March 1, 2017.
The names on the roster of the Iranian men's team include Majid Pashoei, Davoud Jabbari, Kayvan Runna, Mohammad Reza Shabani, Yassin Sharifi, Mohammad Safdari, Amir Arefinia, Hessam Arefzadeh, Asghar Veghari, Rajabali Barzegar, Mostafa Kamali, Mohammad Goudarzi, Mohammad Sadeq Gohari, Mojtaba Kordan, Sepehr Mosharrafjavadi, Mehdi Ma'soumi, Iman Mo'azzeni, Seyyed Jalal Farahibozorg and Mojtaba Vaezzadeh.
The Iranian outfit is under the tutelage of Spanish head coach Rafael Lemes.

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — The Portland City Council was scheduled to vote Thursday on moving the Right 2 Dream Too homeless camp from Chinatown to a piece of land on the east side, near OMSI. But, the hearing was canceled because of "unavoidable life events among Council — illness, etc.," according to Mayor Charlie Hales' spokesperson. The hearing has been rescheduled to February 18.
Meanwhile, the Portland Business Alliance continues to fight the move and raise concerns about the number of homeless encampments popping up throughout the city.
"We need to be providing people with safe, indoor places to go."
Sandra McDonough is the President and CEO of the PBA. She is concerned about the number of needles and human bio-hazards members of the Clean and Safe crew are finding on downtown streets.
"We're talking about dangerous health conditions," McDonough tells KOIN 6 News.
Even though Hales is seeking millions of dollars to address the homeless problem, the emergency seems to be at a breaking point. Businesses have closed because of the issue, police seized five rifles from a homeless camp in Northwest and in Seattle, three homeless teenagers are accused of a deadly shooting at a camp over drugs. That is sending shock waves throughout the Rose City.
"We need to be finding places that are inside, safe, warm and dry for people to be staying in," says McDonough.

Dialog starts at a pivot point. It begins when we stand together at an intersection where we both know we disagree about something each of us considers important. People seldom choose to enter that space together. That choice alone has power.
Then dialog demands that each of us listen generously. Rachel Remen, MD, describes the healing effect of that action.
Does healing mean we always find common ground on the issues that divide us? In my experience, not necessarily.
But there's a common ground more fundamental than beliefs and principles. If the dialog process has been genuine, there's a chance it can still be transformative, because dialog can destroy demonization.
If we have listened to each other and shared values that matter to us, then we may recognize the Spirit alive in each of us, despite very different manifestations.
We may remain "poles apart," but perhaps no longer polarized. Remember how magnets spring apart and cannot be pressed together? Dialog can help us get past an automatic mutual rejection and a gut sense that our deepest essence defines us as opposing forces.
Sure, each of us may continue to believe the other is misinformed, misguided, mistaken. But probably we won't consider the other person actually bad. We may even like each other.
Whether it remains viable or valuable to continue the exploration for common ground - that's a separate question for discernment.
But dialog will give us new insight, even in disagreement. And of course our deepest listening must be to God's presence in and among us, without barriers that try to predetermine where God dwells.

By Chris Vellacott
LONDON, Jan 23 (Reuters) - British insurer Aviva is being forced to hunt for a new chief financial officer in the middle of a company wide overhaul after announcing that Pat Regan is to join Australian rival QBE in June.
Regan, who joined Aviva in February 2010, leaves at an awkward time for the group, which is into the second year of the root-and-branch revamp being steered by Chief Executive Mark Wilson.
However, Wilson emphasised that Regan's departure is amicable and that he is "supportive" of his colleague's decision to take a job elsewhere.
"Pat has been a tremendous support in assisting me with Aviva's financial transformation. I am supportive of his decision and he leaves with my best wishes and those of Aviva's board," Wilson said in a statement.
Aviva said it has started the search for a new finance director, the latest in a string of top-level changes since Wilson's 2013 arrival in the wake of an investor revolt that prompted the departure of his predecessor.
"Regan is the latest in a growing list of exits from Aviva which, to us, is likely to impact operating performance in the coming years," Shore Capital Stockbrokers said in a note on Thursday.
But Wilson, who previously ran Hong Kong-listed AIA Group , has already made many senior-level appointments at Aviva and has won the approval of investors for boosting the share price by close to a third.
His appointments include Euan Munro, recruited from Standard Life to run the fund management arm, and new heads of strategy and human resources. He has also appointed new leaders for the regional divisions in Asia, Europe and the UK general insurance arm.
Aviva continues to reshuffle its business priorities, ditching non-core assets and boosting areas that Wilson feels merit further investment, most recently a joint venture to sell life insurance in Indonesia.

1. Tiger Woods' shot at his first major title since 2008. His knee is healthy and so is his putting stroke. Most observers, including many players, believe his three-win season so far in 2013 makes him the favorite.
2. Rory McIlroy's "comeback." His 2013 was a nightmare until he nearly won in Texas Sunday.
3. Tianlang Guan. 14-year-old from China, winner of Asia-Pacific Amateur, is the golfer everyone is talking about this week.
4. Phil Mickelson's annual Augusta charge. In his past 14 Masters, he has three wins and 12 top 10 finishes.
5. Will a long putter rule? Masters chairman Billy Payne didn't take a stand on the proposed ban on "anchoring" a long putter on the body. It's still legal, and Keegan Bradley and others are skilled in that style.

Visualizing 1.9 Million acres of land is something akin to trying to conceptualize infinity. There is a point when something is so large that we really can't conceive of it in our minds. The size registers, but it registers something not conceivable until you're standing in the middle of nowhere looking out.
The Grand Staircase Escalante is home to countless slot canyons, well over 1,000 miles of roads, contains vast mineral deposits, and fits into 1.9 million square acres. It's the kind of place that defies immediate description, and is best seen in person. It's also the kind of place that takes a lot of time to document and share with adventurous visitors. And with that in mind, a series of articles better serves covering this place. Welcome to Part I, Cottonwood Canyon Road.
Tips for a successful trip
This National Monument is home to some amazing places to hike, canyoneer, photograph, and much more. The memories you can make here if you choose to visit will be ones that last a lifetime. With that said, we do have some cautionary advice that we feel should be put up front.
The Grand Staircase involves areas that are extremely remote and not hospitable to many types of RV's. Fortunately there are camping opportunities along the edge of the monument on both the north and south sides. Many of the dirt roads into the monument are "washboard" at minimum, and washed out sometimes in the worst case. Quite honestly, you wouldn't catch me towing my Airstream onto Cottonwood Canyon Road, it would rattle my rivets right out!
With that said, this monument still has a lot to offer. If you're pulling a trailer with a 4×4 you're set. Class A RV'ers? Hey, I've seen you guys running around with Jeeps in tow….now is the time to really make use of that 4 wheel wonder! Park and camp at one of the spots we recommend and use your RV as base camp.
When venturing into the Grand Staircase be sure to have plenty of water along with you no matter what time of year it is. Your exploration vehicle should have a medical kit along with it, and if you're hiking off to a slot canyon or to explore some of the amazing hikes your pack should have a basic first aid kit as well.
Finally, given the size of this monument and its remote areas, DO NOT expect your cell phone to work in most areas (there are exceptions of course). Personally we carry a satellite messenger with us in the Grand Staircase and a HAM radio as well. There are several Amateur Radio repeaters that reach into the area, adding a measure of safety when you visit. If you get stranded you may not see anyone who can help all day, so it pays to plan ahead.
Cottonwood Canyon Road
Running from Route 89 to Route 12 the Cockscomb is a 50-mile long fault, and Cottonwood Canyon Road runs along it. The road is not suited for most RVs, however 4 wheel drive truck campers and "adventure trailers" will have little issue following the road. If you're traveling with one of these you'll have some "choice spots" to camp, and you will garner this author's envy.
At the southern terminus of the road (on Route 89) travelers will find themselves extremely close to the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument and Page, AZ. At the northern terminus of Cottonwood Canyon road you'll find yourself at Kodachrome Basin State Park. So opportunities for camping can be found, and day tripping in with a tow vehicle (preferably a 4wd high clearance vehicle) is not only possible, but highly recommended.
For easy access to the road we'd recommend staying at Kodachrome Basin for trailers, 5th wheels, and larger rigs. That will put you in a wonderful area full of recreational opportunities when you're not exploring along Cottonwood Canyon Road. Additionally, you're not that far from Bryce National Park. You can also base out of the Lake Powell area as well and run the road from South to North.
From North to South on Cottonwood Canyon Road
Starting from Kodachrome Basin and heading south into the Grand Staircase is a great way to go. The starting point is already an amazing area, and you could spend days exploring all the park has to offer.
Heading south from Kodachrome Basin along Cottonwood Canyon Rd the view spots start coming at you almost immediately. Take your time, pull off often, and make sure not to miss a single view. Also, when you reach the height of land look back to where you came from, as the view toward Kodachrome Basin is awe inspiring.
Grosvenor Arch
In under 10 miles of travel one of the first major points to stop and look around is Grosvenor Arch. The Arch itself is actually a double arch, and it's only a short walk from the parking area (which has primitive restroom facilities). The view from the parking area is fantastic, but to enjoy this area to it's full potential you should take a short walk up to the arch and around it.
Leaving the arch and heading south once again the scenery continues to astound. And in under 4 miles you'll come over a crest and down into an area fondly referred to by photographers as "Candyland." There's a pull off at the height of land before you drop down into the area, and if you don't mind a walk down it's a good spot to get your vehicle out of the way for photos and to ensure you're not in the way of any other travelers. The first image in this article is from Candyland, and our vehicle is safely out of the main road.
Depending on the time of day certain features will be lit up while others will be in the shadows. Fortunately if you follow the road back to your campsite in Kodachrome you'll get to see this area under different lighting conditions, changing the entire way you see the landscape.
Near some well defined parking areas in the little "valley" of Candyland adventurers will also find a great canyon hike. The Cottonwood Narrows entrance is easy to find, on the west side of the road, and getting into the narrows is very quick. You can take a short hike into the Narrows, or you can actually hike south to another car parking area (about a mile south by car a signed parking area is easy to find). The Narrows aren't the most spectacular canyons in the Grand Staircase, but a walk into them is a fun break from driving along the road straight through!
*Note: If you hike into the Narrows be sure to have plenty of water and a small first aid kit along with you. Additionally, if you're using a satellite messenger in the canyon you're likely to not be able to send or receive messages due to the canyon walls blocking your southern visibility.
Great camping along cottonwood canyon road
If you are working North to South, prior to entering Candyland you'll find a great pull off and flat area above Candyland that is a perfect dispersed camping site. Right before you drop from the height of land look to your right (west) for the pull off and campsite. Truck campers, Jeeps with Adventure Trailers, and tent camping are all possible at this site.
Continuing south from the Narrows parking lot (about 1 mile south of Candyland), drive almost 5 miles to another great dispersed camping area. There is actually room for several campers in the area, and this author has seen several 4×4 truck campers in for overnights. For RV'ers, this isn't the place for you. As noted earlier, we suggest Kodachrome Basin as a great launching point.
Hackberry Canyon
Approximately 15 miles south of the cutoff for Grosvenor Arch travelers will find a parking area for Hackberry Canyon. This is a favorite hiking location for this author, and visitors can spend a day, or can even overnight and enjoy the canyon for a few days. Fortunately if you're not interested in a super long hike, getting into Hackberry Canyon is relatively quick. In fact, in under 10 minutes of hiking you can be well into the canyon with massive walls rising up on both sides of you.
Leaving the parking area you'll cross into a small river (dry sometimes but plan on getting your feet wet) and turn right and follow the riverbed (you can't miss the canyon walls either). In a few minutes you'll find yourself walking right into the canyon, walls rising up on both sides quickly. As you enter the canyon you'll see hints of "Yellow Rock", an amazing formation above Hackberry Canyon to your South. Continuing into the canyon the walls change color and texture, and the inner canyon is much cooler than being out in the open (if it's a hot day this is a great place to cool off).
The main canyon can be explored in a few hours. But if you're feeling adventurous you can continue on several miles and find "Watson Cabin." If you're camping in the area you can easily make a day trip out of this hike, or if you're feeling really adventurous you could actually follow the river bend back to Round Valley Draw which exits north of Grosvenor Arch. For detailed trip information on this hike (which you may want to make an overnight out of) we suggest Michael Kelsey's book "Canyon Hiking Guide to the Colorado Plateau."
Yellow Rock
Sitting above Hackberry Canyon, Yellow Rock is one of those rarely seen places that most visitors will still bypass. From the parking area for Hackberry Canyon, hike south along the riverbed for less than a half mile. To your right you will see a V formation in the rock walls, and if you're lucky you'll see a well worn path that climbs Northwest. This is a very short hike up that places you above Hackberry Canyon. However, this is a steep trail that is wide enough for 1 person, with a daunting drop off as you make your way up to Yellow Rock.
Several attempts to see Yellow Rock by this author have been cut short as hiking partners developed vertigo as we made our way up the path from the river bed. The climb is not for the faint of heart, and if you have any issues with heights it isn't recommended. We want you to have fun on your trip, and to return safely home at the end of the day. If you decide to undertake this adventure we'd recommend Michael Kelsey's book once again. Non-Technical Canyon Hiking Guide to the Colorado Plateau, 6th Edition
On to route 89
From Hackberry south there's plenty to see. The landscape changes quickly and you get out onto more "open" road as you make your way to Route 89. While there aren't officially signed areas along Cottonwood Canyon Road from Hackberry, pull offs are still found here and there. And looking back where you've been will show you some of the crazy terrain you've just driven through!
Prior to reaching Route 89 there are dispersed campsites that can easily be found. Near Route 89 itself we've found Travel Trailers parked just off Cottonwood Canyon Road for an overnight. We wouldn't recommend any of these spots, as the road is pretty rough coming in and you could do damage to your rig. But we have seen folks time and again camping in the area.
Reaching Route 89 you have a few options. Turning left (east) you can make your way back to Page, AZ. Turning right (west) you can travel a few miles to the Paria River Ranger station. There you can learn about the Vermillion Cliffs National Monument, Buckskin Gulch, Wire Pass, the Paria Canyon, Coyote Buttes, and more.
The Route
The map below shows you the length of the journey along Cottonwood Canyon Road. Grosvenor Arch, Candyland, and Hackberry Canyon are noted, but keep in mind the entire route is amazing and it's up to you how much exploring you want to do!
Camping for RV'ers
Cottonwood Canyon Road is worth the visit. And for almost all RV'ers, your rig won't be able to access the road. For 4WD vehicles with truck campers or Adventure Trailers, you have many options along the road. Dispersed sites are present along the road, and you can indeed overnight (be sure to check in with a ranger station before setting out for any advisories they might have).
For the rest of us, there are camping options on both sides of the road. Our "choice" pick would be Kodachrome Basin State park. Not only because it has direct access to Cottonwood Canyon Road, but also because it is an amazing place on its own!
We've included a few other locations to camp. Lone Rock Beach in Utah is a great location. It's also dry camping and only $10 per night. Wahweap located a short distance from Lone Rock is another amazing location to camp and have hookups for your rig. The price is a little higher in comparison to Lone Rock.
Desperate for some boondocking sites?
Ah yes, Cottonwood Canyon Road doesn't offer great boondocking opportunities for your standard RV. Fortunately you're in luck, if you're willing to add a little drive time. Head over to Escalante, Utah and make your way to Hole in the Rock Road. Right at the junction of Route 12 and Hole in the Rock road is a great BLM dispersed camping area. And if you're willing to drive a little further along Hole in the Rock Road you will find several dispersed sites as well. The easiest is of course right at the junction with Route 12, and we'd recommend that for the moment. Another upcoming article will look at this section of the Grand Staircase in depth, including additional camping sites, so stay tuned!

SONY set to JUNK status
View Single Post
SONY set to JUNK status
So finally it has happened
Sony and Panasonic given junk ratings
By Ben McLannahan in Tokyo
Fitch has cut the credit ratings of Sony and Panasonic to junk, saying that the recovery of both companies rests on aggressive and far-reaching restructuring.
On Thursday the credit rating agency docked
Sony three notches to BB-, from BBB-
, and Panasonic two notches to BB, from BBB-. Fitch justified the cuts – which made it the first major agency to strip either company of investment-grade ratings – by citing a long list of challenges, including loss of technology leadership in key products and the strong yen.
"This wasn't an easy decision," said Matt Jamieson, Seoul-based head of corporate research. "But their reputations have been hit so much that it'll take a long while to crawl back."
The downgrades come as both giants of the Japanese consumer electronics sector, with almost 500,000 employees between them, are suffering from falling competitiveness in televisions and other cornerstone products. Last month Panasonic warned it was on course for its second $10bn net loss in two years for the year to March 2013, while Sony posted its seventh consecutive quarterly net loss in the three months to September.
Fitch noted that both companies had solid buffers of cash, and also had profitable, cash-generating units such as Panasonic's domestic appliance business and Sony's image-sensing division. If executives can take an axe to the problem areas such as TVs for Sony and personal computers for Panasonic, then the rapid downgrades need not necessarily lead to more, said Mr Jamieson.
"I don't think the banks will push either of these companies to the wall," said Damian Thong, an equity analyst at Macquarie Securities in Tokyo. "But they do need to convince people that tough restructuring moves will be done in good time, while minimising unnecessary damage to healthy businesses."
Sony and Panasonic have been two of the worst seven performers on the Nikkei 225 stock average since the beginning of last year, down 72 per cent and 65 per cent respectively, as investors have weighed the heavy costs of job losses and factory closures.
Over a longer horizon, a revival is possible, said Steve Durose, Fitch's head of Asia Pacific technology, media and telecoms ratings, especially if the yen continues its recent weakening trend. But he said that the duo's chances of rediscovering technological leadership to develop "must-have products" were hampered by their inability to invest as much as competitors.
While Sony and Panasonic will average about $2.5bn and $4bn, respectively, in capital spending over the next couple of years, Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics (including LG Display), for example, will spend $22bn and $5.5bn respectively.
"Without a radical change to the structure of their businesses it is difficult to see profitability improving enough for them to regain investment-grade ratings," said Mr Durose.
According to Fitch's spectrum, BB ratings indicate that companies are vulnerable to defaulting on debt over time, but have sufficient flexibility for now to keep servicing that debt.
Sony, Panasonic Credit Rating Cut to Speculative Grade
Sony Corp. (6758) and Panasonic Corp. (6752), the Japanese electronics makers reeling from record losses, had their credit ratings cut to junk for the first time by Fitch Ratings amid slumping demand for their televisions.
Sony's rating was cut by three levels to BB-, three steps below investment grade, and Panasonic by two levels to BB, with the outlook on both companies being negative, Fitch said in separate statements today. Both companies had their short-term ratings reduced to B from F3.
Enlarge image
Sony Corp. and Panasonic Corp., the Japanese electronics makers reeling from losses, had their long-term credit ratings downgraded to junk by Fitch Ratings.
The companies will struggle amid a strong yen and weakened economic conditions at home and overseas, Fitch said. After dominating the consumer-electronics industry since the 1980s, Sony, Panasonic and Sharp Corp. (6753) have resorted to cutting jobs, closing plants and selling assets after failing to come up with hit products to challenge Samsung Electronics Co. and Apple Inc. (AAPL)
"The future of both companies will depend on their ability to curb loss-making segments and rediscover the kind of technological leadership, which historically enabled them to develop must-have products," Steve Durose, Fitch's head of technology ratings for the Asia-Pacific region, said in a statement. "Sony is the higher risk of the two, hence its lower rating."
Yuki Shima, a spokeswoman at Tokyo-based Sony, and Chieko Gyobu, a spokeswoman at Osaka-based Panasonic, said their companies don't comment on ratings changes.
Shares Collapse
Shares of Sony, Panasonic and Sharp sank to their lowest levels in more than 30 years in Tokyo this year as investors remain unconvinced the companies can rebound from mounting losses without hit products. The three companies combined are valued at $24 billion, compared with $528 billion for Apple and $192 billion for Suwon, South Korea-based Samsung.
Sony, founded in 1946 and the inventor of the Walkman player that revolutionized the music industry in the 1980s, was worth more than $120 billion in 2000. Its shares gained 1.8 percent to 834 yen in Tokyo trading today before the downgrade. The stock has lost 40 percent this year.
Panasonic, founded in 1918, rose 0.7 percent to close at 407 yen, trimming its loss this year to 38 percent.
"The downgrades may put pressure on shares," said Mitsuo Shimizu, a Tokyo-based analyst at Iwai Cosmo Holdings Inc. (8707) "No measures to revive these companies have been found yet."
Extra Yield
The extra yield investors demand to own Panasonic debt over similar-maturity sovereign bonds has fallen from 354 basis points on Nov. 7 to 197 basis points as of 5:14 p.m. in Tokyo, according to the Japan Securities Dealers Association. Investors demanded a premium of 63 basis points on Oct. 31, the data show.
The extra yield investors demand to own Sony's 45 billion yen ($544 million) of 0.664 percent bonds due March 2017 rather than government debt fell six basis points to 116 today, according to JSDA prices. The notes were priced in March at a spread of 36 basis points, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
Borrowing costs in the corporate-bond market have climbed for the three Japanese electronics makers as record losses and widening deficit forecasts sapped investor confidence.
Sony posted a net loss of 15.5 billion yen for the quarter ended Sept. 30, compared with the 15.6 billion-yen average profit of three analyst estimates compiled by Bloomberg before the Nov. 1 announcement. The company, which has reported losses in each of the past four years, retained its forecast for full- year net income of 20 billion yen.
Meaningful Recovery
Sony was downgraded to the lowest investment grade on Nov. 9 by Moody's Investors Service, which cited falling demand for the company's TVs and cameras. Moody's cut Panasonic to the same level on Nov. 20.
Sony Chief Executive Officer Kazuo Hirai is cutting 10,000 jobs and selling assets as he focuses on mobile devices, games and digital imaging to revive the company. Sony sold a chemical- products making unit, stakes in two display-making ventures and invested in Olympus Corp. (7733) after racking up 692 billion yen in losses selling TVs in the past eight years.
"Meaningful recovery will be slow, given the company's loss of technology leadership in key products, high competition, weak economic conditions in developed markets and the strong yen," Fitch said in today's ratings statement.
Continuing weakness at Sony's home entertainment, mobile and communications businesses will offset its "relatively stable" music and movie operations and improvements at its components businesses, Fitch said today.
Market Share
Sony had 7 percent of the global TV market in the quarter ended Sept. 30, down from 8.4 percent the previous quarter, according to DisplaySearch. Panasonic dropped to 6.2 percent from 6.8 percent in the same period. Samsung remained No. 1 with 25.2 percent, according to the researcher's website.
Net debt for Sony's non-financial services businesses increased by 400 billion yen from March to September, partly because of higher financial needs, Moody's has said. Gross debt for Sony's non-financial services businesses increased to about 1.25 trillion yen in September from 1.15 trillion yen in March. Cash and deposits decreased to about 420 billion yen from about 720 billion yen.
Panasonic, the maker of Viera televisions and Lumix cameras, forecast a 765 billion-yen net loss for the year ending March 31. That would be the second-biggest loss in company history after the 772 billion-yen net loss the previous year.
Today's downgrade "reflects Panasonic's weakened competitiveness in its core businesses, particularly in TVs and panels, as well as weak cash generation from operations," Fitch said. "Panasonic will continue to suffer from frail economic conditions in both Japan and overseas and resultant weak demand for its products, as well as continuing price competition from overseas companies."
Sharp, the Osaka-based maker of Aquos TVs, was downgraded to junk by Fitch earlier this month.

Kolkata, June 23 (IANS) Stirring up a controversy, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee's nephew and Trinamool Congress MP Abhishek Banerjee has threatened to "gouge out eyes and chop off hands" which are raised against the people of the state.
The opposition parties on Tuesday condemned the remarks, with the state BJP filing police complaints demanding arrest of the Lok Sabha member who made the aggressive remarks while addressing a party rally in Basirhat in North 24-Parganas on Monday.
"So long as Mamata Banerjee is there, whoever dares to glare at the people of Bengal, we can gouge their eyes out and throw them on the road. If hands are raised, we can chop off the hands," said Abhishek.
He also asserted that unlike most other political parties, the Trinamool has not fallen at the feet of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Widely perceived as Mamata's heir apparent, Abhishek has courted controversy earlier also for making snide remarks.
BJP national secretary Siddharth Nath Singh had served legal notices on him for making disparaging remarks about late prime minister Lal Bahadur Shastri — Singh's grandfather.
"If Lal Bahadur Shastri had known how his grandson would turn out to be, he would have remained unmarried," Abhishek had said at a party rally.
The Lok Sabha member from Diamond Harbour in South 24 Parganas district, faced brickbats on the social media after he wondered if the massive agitation by Jadavpur University students demanding the resignation of the vice chancellor was actually to secure the liberty to have drugs inside the campus.
Earlier in January, the 27-year-old who also heads the party's youth wing, was slapped by a person who was then almost lynched by Trinamool activists.
Demanding his immediate arrest, state Bharatiya Janata Party president Rahul Sinha said the party has not only filed police complaints but will also approach the Calcutta High Court seeking legal action.
"Abhishek should be immediately arrested for the remarks. We have filed a first information report (FIR) before both the Kolkata and Basirhat police seeking immediate legal action against him," said Sinha.
"His words are spurring violence and we feel they are directed at the BJP. We will file a petition before the high court for immediate legal action against Abhishek," added Sinha.
"When human civilisation has moved long long way from the principle of an eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth, I don't understand making such a remark in this age. This is straight forward criminal intimidation," Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M) general secretary Sitaram Yechury said.
"The remarks made by Abhishek are condemnable… Indian politics doesn't permit anyone to say such things. This in no way is going to help Mamata Banerjee and her party … rather it will do damage," said Congress leader Meem Afzal.
"Abhishek's comments reflect the DNA of the Trinamool. The Trinamool's DNA is that of a dictator inspired by the invader Mahmud of Ghazni," BJP national secretary Siddharth Nath Singh said.
Flooded with comments and criticism against the Trinamool MP, #AbhishekBanerjee trended on micro-blogging site Twitter.
Several other Trinamool leaders too have been in the spotlight for making hate speeches.
Actor-turned-Trinamool MP Tapas Paul had created a nationwide outrage after he was caught on successive tapes exhorting his party men to kill Marxist workers and threatened to "let loose my boys to rape their women".
Infamous for making inflammatory speeches, Trinamool's Birbhum district president Anubrata Mandal had exhorted his partymen during the 2013 rural polls to set ablaze independent candidates' houses and hurl bombs at the police if they tried to prevent them.
Party legislator from Labhpur in Birbhum district Manirul Islam had publicly threatened to behead a Congress leader from the district and went on to claim how he had "squashed" three people under his feet for committing atrocities against women.

Earlier this week, Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi was hospitalized after a man named Massimo Tartaglia hurled a statuette of the Milan Cathedral into his face, breaking his nose and two of his teeth. Tartaglia was promptly hauled off by the police, but less than 48 hours later, a Facebook fan page for Tartaglia had already amassed over 100,000 users.
Facebook has swiftly shut down the offending page. "Promoting violence, or posting threatening content, is not permitted on Facebook," the social-networking site said. "We will take quick action to respond to reports, and remove any content reported to us that makes direct threats against an individual."
This is a very smart move on Facebook's part. Italian law is notoriously unfriendly to the Internet. Consider the recent case in which four Google executives are being charged in Italy, facing up to a year in jail time just because they work for a company that hosted a video of an autistic child being taunted in Turin. Italian law holds corporate executives liable for their corporation's actions, and the argument in the Google case is that Google should have policed its content more effectively (to be fair, Google did remove the video as soon as it was notified).
Facebook is looking to avoid similar troubles. Assaulting the most powerful politician in the country is a big crime, and Facebook doesn't want to risk looking like it is endorsing it.

Hubbard will run for Albany mayor
Thu, 28 Apr 2011 16:06:35 GMT —
The newest candidate to fill Willie Adams' shoes as Mayor of Albany is looking to make some history in the 'Good Life City.' City Commissioner Dorothy Hubbard would become the first woman ever to serve as Mayor of Albany. At today's announcement, Hubbard said she wants to show the people what she can do as Mayor â" not just tell them. "I want to be the Mayor of Albany," said Hubbard.
Hubbard has served as Albany city commissioner from Ward 2 for six years. As the backdrop for her announcement, she chose a dilapidated home undergoing demolition â" a main campaign theme. "I have fought for a cleaner, safer, and more productive Albany," said Hubbard. "You may not have seen me but you have seen my work."
Hubbard's only official competition so far is local businessman Kirk Smith. His campaign manager welcomed Hubbard to the race but says doesn't believe her candidacy will interfere with Scott's momentum. "We have a lot of support in the community," said Christopher King. "We have been campaigning for a long time now."
Hubbard, meanwhile, plans to conduct 'Huddle with Hubbard' sessions to gather input from the community. "I will go from home to home, business to business, from neighborhood to neighborhood to hear from our citizens," she said.
Hubbard wasn't specific about how much it will cost to mount a successful campaign but she knows it will be expensive. That's why she's turning as much as possible to social media to get out the word and to raise funds. "We believe that we can do the Facebook and we have enough people out there supporting us who will ask for donations. We're going to do it from the ground roots kind of campaign where we ask you to ask for $25.00 and ask you to ask your friends for $25.00," said Hubbard.

I'm really sick - change in diet to blame? :(
Published by Ashleigh in the blog Ashleigh's blog. Views: 84
I've been sick for about 2-3 days.
I've been exhausted and have had a constant headache.
For a couple weeks (As long as i've been dieting) I haven't been able to *go* to the toilet properly (if you get me). In fact, I hadn't been at all til the other day.
I thought that was just a natural reaction to a drastic change in diet.
<If you don't want too much info, don't read on>
I've had chronic diarrhea for the last two days, but it's more like just water. I've lost my appetite and I feel completely dehydrated. I was up and down during the night passing nothing but water - whatever I drank/ate came straight out again.
It's like my organs aren't working properly. I'm scared.
My back and tummy aches and feels bloated - yesterday night, everytime I had to rush to the loo, I came back freezing cold and shiverring, and yet I felt really hot to touch. Then it switched - I felt boiling hot. I checked my temperature and it was 37.8 - I think that's normal?
Last night I slept through solidly and have only had to *go* once this morning.
However, I still feel sick and tired and headachey, and I haven't been able to go to Uni because I just don't feel up to it - also, i'd rather me indoors so that if I have another bout of sickness i'm not somewhere difficult.
Can drastic changes in diets do this?? Is there something i've done horribly wrong?
Sorry for all the gross info, but hey, be lucky it isn't you.
