Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2008 Fontalloro is the yin to the Rancia's yang. It is also characteristically beautiful, open and expressive at this stage. Layers of sweet red fruit, flowers and spices blossom effortlessly from the 2008 Fontalloro. The intensely saline finish that is present in the Rancia is found in..
Cellar/Tasting Notes One of the great wines of this vintage, the 2010 Eneo is dazzling. Subtle hints of earthiness, new leather, smoke, bacon fat, tobacco and savory herbs meld into a core of expressive dark red/black fruit. Nuanced and delicate, yet immensely powerful, the 2010 Eneo has it all. The 2010 keeps getting..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Frescobaldi's Castelgiocondo is a protagonist in the Brunello school that prioritizes bold, modern expressions of the Sangiovese Grosso grape. This vintage shows pulpy fruit, soft spice and chocolate backed by dark concentration. The mouthfeel is generous and full with a thick, velvety texture."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Pretty textbook Brunello with smooth bright berry nuances packed in a traditional, tight body. Good acidity and firmness with well structured, silky tannin."
Cellar/Tasting Notes A fruity and firm red, with berry and dried strawberry character, medium body and firm tannins. Well-structured Rosso di Montalcino. Drink now.
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino Castello Romitorio emerges from the glass with crushed flowers, sweet red berries, licorice, spices and tobacco. The fruit gains freshness and energy as the wine sits in the glass. Sweet floral notes add lift and brightness on the articulate finish. This is a..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2006 Brunello di Montalcino is an elegant wine laced with dark cherries, plums, licorice, new leather, mint and French oak. All of the elements come together beautifully in this silky, mid-weight Brunello. The vibrant, eternal finish makes it hard to resist a second taste..."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino is a pretty, fragrant wine. Initially rather reticent, this medium-bodied Brunello needs some aeration for its perfumed red cherry fruit to open up in the glass. The wine offers good intensity and depth, but needs at least a few years in bottle for the tannins to..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "What a dreamy nose of crushed berries and dried flowers. Perfumes too. Then changes to Indian spices and dark fruits. Full bodied, with super well integrated tannins and a classy, long finish. So well integrated. Just a joy to taste. Better in 2013."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "An amazing and impressive feat of winemaking, this riserva is so tightly wound with gorgeous aromatic intensity, it peels back, layer after layer, and evolves smoothly the more you leave it in the glass. Not drinking it immediately is difficult because of the delicious quality of fruit on display..

When most well-intentioned aid workers hear of a problem they think they can fix, they go to work. This, Ernesto Sirolli suggests, is naïve. In this funny and impassioned talk, he proposes that the first step is to listen to the people you're trying to help, and tap into their own entrepreneurial spirit. His advice on what works will help any entrepreneur.
Ernesto Sirolli got his start doing aid work in Africa in the 70's -- and quickly realised how ineffective it was. Full bio »

Apple seeks to bulk up on security with fingerprint patent
Apple's iOS-based devices and maybe even Macs could eventually come with support for a fingerprint sensor directly on the display.
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) on Thursday published a patent application that Apple filed with its offices on January 17. The patent describes a technology in which a sensor is used to trace a person's finger and fingerprint and determine, based on that, if they have proper credentials. Apple's patent application doesn't go as far as including the security features that might come with it on the software side, but it's clear … Read more

Despite the hefty sticker price associated with all Ivy League institutions, estimated yearly costs are actually quite affordable. In fact, Ivy Leaguers graduate with less debt than their peers who attended less prestigious schools. How? Turns out healthy endowment funds play a huge role in aiding low-income, middle-income and even upper-income students with tuition costs. Score!
According to statistics from U.S. News & World Report, many of the best colleges in the county are relative steals for the lucky few who earn admission. For example, Princeton University students graduate with about $5,096 of debt for all four years – the lowest sum for alumni leaving a national university with debt. Amy Laitinen, a former White House education adviser now at the New America Foundation, said, "Folks look at the sticker price and assume that's what everyone is paying. The truth is that the more elite schools have more resources."
But with acceptance rates hovering at less than 10 percent, gaining access to those Ivy League dollars is fiercely competitive. Do you think it's fair for students who don't meet the Ivies' steep admissions standards to be saddled with crippling debt or should the few that do be rewarded with an affordable, brand name education? Let us know what you think in the comments section.

If you're a high school senior and you don't think a traditional four-year university is for you, attending a community college does have its perks. Whether you're interested in completing your general courses or testing the waters with a major that you're not absolutely set on, community colleges offer students the luxury of figuring out their educational path for a fraction of the cost...or at least they used to: California Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill that would allow a handful of community colleges to charge inflated prices for in-demand courses. Let's say it all together now: Booooooo!
The higher costs – $200 per unit instead of $46 – would only affect the shorter summer and winter sessions. Supporters insist that the pilot program would prevent more students from being shut out of courses they need to graduate but critics said that lower-income students would be denied the opportunity to obtain course credits essential to their educational success. "The state would be shifting the burden for funding access from the state general fund to the backs of students," said Vincent Stewart, the community college system's vice chancellor for governmental relations, after the California Legislature approved the measure. "Creating a pay-to-play fee structure, where students who have greater wealth and means can get on a fast track, is patently unfair."
Even with the rate per unit almost quintupled, the overall cost of studying at a community college is still considerably less when compared to traditional options but is it fair to charge more? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section.

If you're a high school senior, you'll be faced with a major decision in the coming months: choosing the right school. And while there are myriad factors to consider when making your decision, campus housing can be a crucial piece of the puzzle. For the most part, students are required to live in campus housing during their freshman year while upperclassmen tend to live off-campus in apartments. The reason: Most larger universities just don't offer enough on-campus housing to accommodate their entire undergraduate populations. Yet, that's not always the case because some prominent institutions with large endowments offer housing for all undergraduates.
According to an analysis of student housing data provided by the U.S. News & World Report, students at many of the country's top ranked schools opt to remain on campus until they graduate. Of the top 10 national universities with the highest percentage of students living on campus, five are Ivy League institutions. Check out the complete list below (schools are ranked by the percentage of their undergraduate student body living on campus).

With college on the horizon for high school seniors, those with lofty political aspirations should understand that it's never too early to start making the right connections. And what better place to start than by attending the right college that already boasts a total of six presidents and four vice presidents. Which university is that, you ask? None other than Harvard University. Considering their reputation as one of the most prestigious institutions in the country, producing the most commanders-in-chief may not be the shock of the century but you might be surprised by the fact that Allegheny College in Pennsylvania and Eureka College in Illinois produced as many presidents as Georgetown University and the United States Naval Academy. Curious as to what other colleges might better your chances at becoming the next POTUS, check out the list below:

In general, college is viewed as the sacred time in your young adult life where you make connections that will last a lifetime, take part in heavily heated debates on issues you're passionate about and play games where you're rewarded with a $25 gift card to the Olive Garden for "catching" illegal immigrants. Wait...something about the latter statement seems WAY too terrible and offensive to be true, right?!
The Houston Chronicle reported that students from a conservative student group at the University of Texas planned to stage a "Catch an Illegal Immigrant" game on Wednesday with the hopes of sparking a campus-wide conversation about illegal immigration. The game involves participants "capturing" volunteers masquerading as undocumented immigrants. The group took to their Facebook page to defend their event and Lorenzo Garcia, the chairman of the university's Young Conservatives of Texas (YCT) chapter, reiterated that the purpose of the game is start a debate and not to promote prejudice. We should note that YCT is no stranger to controversy: In September, they held an "affirmative-action bake sale" where there sold treats to students at prices that varied depending on their race and gender. Yikes!
University leaders have been quite vocal about condemning the planned immigration game. UT Austin President William C. Powers, Jr. said the proposed event was "completely out of line" with the university's values. "Our nation continues to grapple with difficult questions surrounding immigration. I ask YCT to be part of that discussion but to find more productive and respectful ways to do so that do not demean their fellow students," he added.
As this blog post was being written, the event was cancelled but what do you think about this "game" proposed by YCT? Do you find it offensive and disrespectful? Let us know in the comments section.

Four decades after Title IX was enacted, many colleges and universities across the country still struggle with the gender-equity requirements. If you're not familiar with Title IX, allow me to give you a brief synopsis: The law states: "no person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance." While Title IX has had obvious positive effects on women's education, we most often associate this law's success within athletics but compliance with Title IX isn't always a clear task. Take for instance what's happening at Colorado State University: The school plans to add scholarships through a new women's soccer team but are doing so at the expense of the women's water polo team. If you're scratching your head in confusion, join the club.
According to reports, the complaint against the university filed in July 2012 alleged that CSU discriminated against female athletes by falling to provide opportunities equal to those afforded to their male counterparts. The university agreed to a turnaround plan that will bring it into compliance by September 2016 but many individuals have pointed out the odd juxtaposition of a women's sport being eliminated to comply with gender-balance guidelines. "It definitely shows that they didn't take our sport as seriously as maybe men's basketball or football, because they definitely wouldn't have eliminated them," said Alexzandrea Daley, a 19-year-old junior and water polo team member at CSU. Officials at the university have sympathized with their outrage but reaffirm that the university could not afford to keep both sports. (For more on this story, click here.)
Sure, repeated failures to comply with Title IX can jeopardize a university's federal financial support but do you agree with Colorado State's solution? Do you think it fair to the female athletes? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section.

As students begin the fall semester, news of the H1N1 swine flu virus spreading across college campuses is everywhere. But whether the flu has hit your college or not, getting sick at school is a real concern and can quickly derail your semester.
Living far away from home, many college students aren't well-equipped to take care of themselves and stay on top of their coursework while ill, especially if they contract something more serious than a cold. While the flu's getting all the attention now, other common illnesses can put students out of commission for days, or even weeks, causing them to miss class, miss work, and get behind on projects that are crucial to their success in school. Missed work due to illness can even jeopardize your financial aid. Part of taking care of yourself when you're sick at school is taking care to minimize the impact of illness on your semester.
Beyond attending to your immediate needs (seeing a doctor, getting rest, etc.), the most important thing to do if you get sick is to contact your professors, preferably before you miss a class or an assignment. If you're really ill and need to miss more than one class or an important assignment, quiz, or test, the earlier you establish communication, the better it will go. If you have a diagnosis, you can share it, but don't go into the minute details of what your body is doing and don't assume that because you're sick with something verifiable, your professors will instantly cater to your every whim. A doctor's excuse doesn't always go as far as demonstrated willingness to take responsibility for your missed work and to work with your professor to get caught up. Most instructors will be willing to provide you with information and course materials from missed classes, and depending on circumstances and how you approach the situation, they may allow you to make up work, as well.
If you're going to miss a lot of school or you have professors unwilling to budge, contacting your academic advisor is a good step, as well. A note from an advisor carries more weight than a call from a student, and if you lack the time or energy to address each professor personally and immediately, talking to your advisor can save you some time. They can also give you advice and information on what to do about missing class, and help you keep from falling behind.
Finally, once you're healthy, back in class and taking care of your missed work, there may still be other matters to attend to. Even if you have tried your hardest, you may wind up with too much work to catch up in a class. If talking to your professor and your advisor about incompletes and other options doesn't bear fruit, you may need to drop classes or you may see your GPA suffer. If you have scholarship awards or other financial aid, lower grades or less than full-time enrollment can have an impact on your eligiblity for these awards. Be aware of the GPA and enrollment requirements for your scholarships and grants (even some student loans) and if you are in danger of not meeting them, talk to the scholarship provider or your financial aid counselor to find out your options. Your financial aid office is also a good place to stop if illness has generated medical bills or lost income for you--they may be able to adjust your aid package to help you deal with these expenses.

Community colleges are becoming increasingly popular options for young people looking to save money on their college degrees. However, despite their initial college plans, community college students are statistically less likely to earn a degree within six years than students who enroll immediately in a four-year college or university.
A report released this week by Demos, a non-partisan public policy research and advocacy institution, looks at the role of financial obligations in college completion rates for community college students under the age of 24. The report points to two things students can do to beat the odds and achieve their college goals: enroll full-time and work no more than part-time.
One of the key findings highlighted in the report is that most community college students have thousands of dollars in unmet financial need, even after accounting for grants and student loans. The lowest income quartile of students had $7,147 in financial need on average after grant aid, and $6,544 in need after accounting for all financial aid. Virtually all students in this quartile had unmet need and 92 percent of these students still had unmet need after all scholarships, grants, and loans. The overwhelming majority of students in the bottom 50% of family income had unmet financial need, averaging nearly $5,000 even after all financial aid.
Based on the substantial amount of unmet financial need these students had, it's not surprising that most community college students worked through school. The report shows 84 percent of young community college students worked while attending college in 2007-2008, and 61 percent of these students worked more than 20 hours a week, despite research showing that students who work fewer than 15 hours a week are the most successful academically. Community college students are more likely than students at state colleges to work their way through school and to work more hours while attending school. Of students who worked, 63 percent said they would not be able to pay for college without work, and 72 percent said they worked to help pay their college costs.
Community college students are also increasingly likely to enroll part-time, despite full-time enrollment being a key predictor of college success. Over half of community college students enrolled part-time in 2007-2008, compared to 19 percent of state college students, and most of these students worked more than part-time, primarily at low-wage jobs that are unrelated to their major or field of study. Just over half of students who initially enrolled part-time left college after 3 years without earning a degree or certificate, compared to only 14 percent of students who initially enrolled full-time.
This report adds to the growing body of research suggesting that borrowing heavily or relying entirely on income from work are not the best way to pay for college. In order to succeed in community college or any higher education institution, students should strongly consider attending full-time and only working part-time. To do this, saving for college or finding additional financial aid may be required. Applying for and winning scholarships can become a major component of college success--not only can scholarships help students meet their full financial need, but students who earn scholarships are also more likely to earn a college degree.

Whether you're applying for college, considering a transfer, or nearing graduation, chances are moving somewhere new has crossed your mind. Any number of factors can come into play in such a big personal decision: closeness to family, availability of jobs in your field, the cost of living, the quality of education, and more. But regardless of their other criteria, few people want to feel like one of the only people under 40 living in their town. This week, The Wall Street Journal came out with a list of ten cities that have the potential to be post-recession "youth magnets." If you're undecided as to where to head for college or after graduation, their list may be worth a perusal.
While the Wall Street Journal is not exactly known as the authority on hip, this list is the product of a panel of six experts on geography, demographics and economics assembled for this purpose. Panelists each provided their top 10, giving reasons for their choices, then the cities with the highest total rank were chosen for the list.
First place, somewhat surprisingly, went to Washington, D.C. (in a tie with Seattle), which doesn't have much of an established reputation as a hot destination for young people. The recent explosion in federal hiring and President Obama's cool are drawing young job seekers, and the museums and live music, as well as the large number of universities in the area also help attract young people beyond just political science majors. The down sides of D.C., though, are its high cost of living and the potential for government to drastically scale back hiring next year.
Seattle, on the other hand, has a diverse economy and a relatively low unemployment rate (currently 7.7%). Its music and media scenes and employment prospects in these areas are strong and well-known, and other high-tech job opportunities for computer science or medical students abound. Like many of the other cities in the list, Seattle also has a strong university presence, providing more incentive for college students and graduate students to place it at the top of their lists as well. The best part: the only negative listed in the article is the weather.
The rest of the top 10, in order, were New York City; Portland, OR; Austin, TX; San Jose, CA; Denver, CO; Raleigh, NC; Dallas, TX; Boston; and Chicago. Several of the cities in the list struggle with high unemployment or high costs of living. Most feature excellent colleges and universities and may already be focal points for your college search. A number also have an excellent variety of things for young people to do; for example, Portland and Austin are well-known cultural outposts and Chicago also has a lot to offer in terms of entertainment and night life, though sports fans may be disappointed that Chicago didn't land the 2016 Olympics.
What do you think? Are any of these places you'd consider heading for college or after?

Who do you believe to be the best fighting type?
Who do you believe to be the best fighting type?
Keldeo Water and fighting. Unique~
I don't know who is the best, but I like Scrafty, Infernape, Mienshao, Heracross and Breloom.
I believe Mienshao is my favorite of these five, so...
The best is probably one of the Sword of Justice... Terrakion perhaps?
Considering that there is another Water/Fighting since Generation I, it is not that unique:
i like lucario fighting/steel/wolf/humanform creature is pretty beast
White 2 team~ all lvl 100~ 8 badges~ E4 complete~ white treehollow complete~ join avenue rank 10~ 81 medals
My all time favorite is Lucario, which is funny because I used to kind of dislike him, lol.
But I also love Poliwrath, Breloom, Blaziken and Infernape. They are all a close second.
Yellow Team
Current Pokémon Y Team Members
Greninja, Venusaur, Blaziken, Raichu, Tyrantrum, Mr. Mime
Pokémon X Planned Team Members
Chesnaught, Charizard, Vespiquen, Jynx, Jolteon, Lucario
Fist Arceus.
Heck yeah.

Why do programmers confuse Halloween with Christmas?
Spoiler:- Answer:
Yeah, I'll probably just keep this until next year.
Because I have no shame. VM me to give me your code.
As a battler, I'd say Toxicroak. It's more dangerous than people realise.
Breloom is good too because of its Spore.
Machop doesn't count because it's more of a looker than a fighter, and it's the wrong type to go by looks.
I love my cute little Machop!
Come on, you know Machop is cute! I mean, who couldn't love those endearing eyes? That adorable face? That loving embrace?
Just don't call it cuddly or else it will hurt you.

I am now the rightful claimer of Machop in the Official Claim A Pokemon Thread v5!
Baziken or Lucario hands down
I have to say Scrafty is my fave Fighter. Also like Blaziken, Toxicroak, Lucario, Breloom, Heracross, Mienshao(design), Hariyama
My Favorite PokemonZangoose --- Moonlight_Tails --- November 22nd, 2013
Terrakion, the God-Slaying Sword of Justice.
The Mere Pokémon Trainers in the Dark
Because the light of Truth is forever beyond their reach, they are doomed to wander the darkness for all eternity.
When they come upon just a glimmer in the dark, they flock around it as if it was the light of Truth,
Like moths flocking around a flame as if it was the light of the Moon.
Thus the glimmers in the dark are glorified though they are as distant from the Truth as Earth is from Heaven.
The glorification of such false lights further seperates their believers from the Truth.
And so the throne of the Great Pokémon Master ascends relative to the rest of the world.
Infernape, Terrakion, and Lucario <3

The old saw that you can't live with them and you can't live without them may apply more aptly to New Jersey Governor Chris Christie than to husbands and wives. The "them" in Christie's case is the Tea Party. Christie so far has made all the right moves in his march toward the GOP presidential nomination.
The GOP-controlled House Ways and Means is the first of the three GOP congressional committees "investigating" Obamacare to try and pulverize it -- again. GOP committee members pounded hard on the stock GOP hit points; it's a mess because...
Dr. Ben Carson's shoot from the lip, crackpot quips, digs, and insults at women, blacks, Democrats, and especially President Barack Obama are fast becoming the stuff of legend. This time he almost outdid his past inane cracks with the zinger that the Affordable Care Act is the worst thing since slavery.
If William F. Buckley Jr.'s definition of a conservative was someone who "stands athwart history yelling, 'Stop'," maybe Dr. Ben Carson's idea of conservatism is standing athwart the present saying "slavery" as many times as he can.
This summer, minimum wage workers in California abandoned their posts at fast food restaurants and retail stores for spots on the picket line. They joined workers in cities across the country to demand an increase in the minimum wage.

Britain is influential in European policy for telecoms and online content. It is not as loud as France, but in a quieter way, lets its views be known. British policy is often the point from which the EU takes its lead in this field. Within the European Commission, the British influence on telecoms policy is evident in the ongoing initiatives to establish and maintain a deregulated market.
The dominant policy which I discuss is the Digital Economy Act which was forced through in the dying hours of the last Parliament under the old discredited Labour regime.
More than one third of the content of the Digital Economy Act deals with copyright enforcement, and includes provisionsl to address peer-to-peer filesharing by means of 3-strikes measures. Within it are proposed measures to to either suspend or terminate the user's access or to slow their bandwidth to make it impossible to do file-sharing or any other advanced applications. These measures involve the use of network technology against the users, they will have implications for the neutrality of the network, and the neutral 'mere conduit' status of the network provider. They potentially will entail the implementation of deep packet inspection – the same equipment as used in China. The broadband provider will be liable to do this, at risk of a quarter of a million pound penalty.
However, since the coalition government has been in power, other issues have arising, and in particular, the government is holding talks with industry about various forms of Internet blocking. I will reports on these events too.

Normally I use mostly wood binding but for Mandolins the ivoroid plastic stuff is kind of expected. I buy the binding bulk, some pre-laminated, but some is not quite what I want so I need to put it together. This can be done by hand in a vise with wood jaws but it is messy. The jig from StewMac is only about twenty bucks so it was worth a try an it works slicker than goose ...ahem... on linoleum. The only thing I did that was different was make it so it could be just bolted down to my bench top. I drilled and tapped another hole near the back end to take a 1/4-20 bolt and that attaches through a hole in the bench I use for many jigs I have. This allows you to lay out the long strips of binding on the bench and they feed through without twisting or hanging on the jig. They suggest this doodad with pieces of pipe to clamp in the vise but that seems like a lot of bother to me. Anyway, if you do any laminating of plastic binding this is a good cheap tool.
I first thought...I can make one, but after much frustration I bought one. Now I wonder why it took so long. Takes me from novice to near perfect Thanks great tool...again Tzen

As Mississippi lawmakers and Gov. Phil Bryant deliberate over what form merit pay for teachers might take, it's certain that standardized test scores will be a significant part of the proposal.
They should be. The tests are the only objective measure of how much students are learning — and thus how effective a teacher is.
Still, there is a downside that needs to be closely monitored.

That's right, I said french fries! Low-fat, healthy french fries! I haven't had a "real" french fry since February 2006. I have sworn off all deep-fried foods, as a personal preference. So when I came up with this recipe I almost cried; they are that good!

Here's an alternative to traditional candied yams. Not as sweet and with a hint of smoky bacon and caramelized onion. So good!

Donyms again
05-07-2013, 02:15 PM #3755I just got a call from a guy that just said I need to pay a hospital bill in full before the end of the week or they are going to take me to court.
(quick back story) This is from dodging a deer and hitting a telephone pole. They took me to a hospital I did not want to go to. then called life flight to take me to another one I did not want to go to. Ended up I needed brain surgery, they needed $250,000 up front. I left and went to the hospital I wanted to go to. The first two and the flight cost about $70,000. I was out of work for 1.5yrs.
So first I asked him If he took cash,. He did not like that.
He said well sir you have been working a year now.
I said, I dont make that in 3 years.
he said, now that is your problem sir.
I said,"and yours"
He said, well if i dont hear from you by friday. I will go on with what we have to do. You don't have anyone to borrow the money from.
I and hung up.
Does anyone have $70,000 I could borrow????
I thought this was funny.
Surreal where are you buddy?
05-07-2013, 02:21 PM #3756That is crazy @Curky. I would let them take me to court. It is not like you are not going to pay it. But, to expect $70,000 after a year is crazy. A judge may decide to dock your wages, but if you have been paying it on a monthly basis the judge may tell them to screw off. Same thing happened to my nephew. They took him to court he showed them that he was paying monthly. The judge told the collection agency to be happy that he was trying to pay them. His bill was only around $5000. @Curky next

05-07-2013, 02:29 PM #3757@Pikey It has been so long with nothing paid at this point, To start now I don't know. If they take me to court in 4 months, it would be a waist of $40. So I will wait it out and if I have to I will Fill chapter 7. that is just medical. That will only cost $2500. Then I will be clean. I have never been late on anything besides this medical stuff. The place I wanted to go to, covered me 100% for the surgery. That cost over 1.4 million. This othe places have not wanted to work with me at all so screw them. They wont get a penny. maybe Piney next
05-07-2013, 05:42 PM #3758@Curky - Sorry to hear about the bill collectors and the cause of it; that's seriously lame. Also, I'm not sweating the defriending on FB -- someone who would defriend me over something as small as a disagreement in philosophy (i.e. someone who can't agree to disagree) probably wasn't ever really my friend to begin with, you know?
Who the hell is piney?

Below are key drivers of eBay's value that present opportunities for upside or downside to the current Trefis price estimate for eBay:
For additional details, select a driver above or select a division from the interactive Trefis split for eBay at the top of the page.
eBay is known for operating the online marketplace eBay.com. The company's marketplace is where third-party buyers and sellers can transact in a variety of products including clothing, electronics, media, collectibles, automobiles and many other types of merchandise.
In addition to eBay.com, the company operates other online commerce platforms such as Half.com, Rent.com, Shopping.com, and classifieds websites. eBay also makes money through its global payments platform called PayPal. PayPal enables enables secure, easy, quick, and cost-effective transfer of payments online.
In March 2011, eBay agreed to acquire GSI Commerce for $2.4 billion. This deal was closed in 2011 and helped eBay to enable more merchants of all sizes to conduct e-commerce and to compete more effectively with online retailers such as Amazon. This deal is one of the biggest for eBay since its 2005 acquisition of Skype for $2.5 billion. GSI commerce will make eBay's marketplace more attractive for large retailers who prefer selling at fixed prices. eBay and GSI aim to move towards a common platform after 2011 to serve retailers of all sizes across eBay, Paypal and GSI.
We estimate that PayPal is the most valuable segment for the following reasons:
PayPal's revenues have grown at about 25% over the past two year and we expect it to continue growing at similar rate in the near term. Our expectation is supported by PayPal's efforts to look beyond eBay for revenues. The company has been rapidly expanding its presence offline through mobile apps meant to facilitate cash less transaction at physical retail outlets. It also tied up with Discover Financial Services in 2012 to expand its offline presence.
PayPal currently has only limited global presence. In most countries, it is still associated as a payment means on eBay. Efforts similar to the ones underway in the U.S. can see PayPal beat our projections and continue at its current revenue growth for several years down the line.
eBay's marketplaces business is growing at a healthy pace due to the growth in global e-commerce volume and the company's continued site improvements. We expect eBay to enable more than $200 billion in commerce volume in 2013, up from $175 billion in 2012. Going forward, the company can complement its efforts and maintain the momentum by better leveraging social networking platforms and expanding in emerging markets. According to Forrester Research, the online retail sales in the U.S. will grow at a compounded annual growth rate of 10% over the next few years, and account for 10% of total U.S. retail sales in 2017.
Conversion rate is a key focus area for eBay, as it seeks to increase the success of sellers in converting listed items to sold items. eBay has implemented a number of features to increase the conversion rate on marketplaces and has launched a revamped website. The new website interface makes it easier to browse through the selection and integration with the mobile platform means that the user can continue shopping through their mobile devices. The efforts have borne fruit as the active user base has grew by 12% in 2012. We expect the growth to continue in the short term.
PayPal users will continue to grow as eBay continues to integrate Paypal into its adjacent marketplaces platforms such as Shopping.com and Rent.com. The increased penetration of PayPal on third party merchant platforms will also help as eBay increases its focus on SMEs.
We expect the rapidly growing mobile payments market to contribute significantly to PayPal's growth in terms of total payment volume and other usage metrics. The company is promoting mobile transactions as an alternative to payment by cards through its mobile app. The service works through the PayPal app that customers can use to check-in to the store. PayPal has partnered with point of sale technology companies such as MICROS, Island Pacific, Kounta and Vend and will soon add more retailers and hospitality partners into the mix. eBay expects PayPal to do $20 billion of mobile commerce and payments volume in 2013.
Google Checkout, Square and credit card merchants will limit eBay's ability to increase revenues by increasing its commission on PayPal transactions ("take rate").
How do we get the historical numbers for this chart?
Trefis has a team of in-house Analysts who gather historical data from company filings and other verifiable sources. When historicals are available, we explain how we got them at the bottom of the Trefis analysis section below.
Who came up with the Trefis forecast for future years?
The Trefis team of in-house Analysts considers a variety of factors when projecting any forecast. The rationale for our projections is explained in the Trefis analysis section below.

Clean and Mean Propane
As lawn maintenance contractors look to reduced both operating costs and their carbon footprint, propane lawn mowers, now offered by many leading manufacturers, are becoming more popular.
The more widespread availability of propane-powered lawn mowers is one reason they are becoming more commonplace in a landscape contractor's mowing fleet. The two biggest reasons, though, are the environmental benefits and potential cost savings, especially for large lawn mowing operations.
"Three years ago, only two manufacturers produced propane-fueled commercial lawn mowers," says Brian Feehan, vice president of the Propane Education & Research Council (PERC). "Today there are more than 29 propane-fueled commercial lawn mower models available from industry-leading brands (see sidebar). The sheer availability of a more diversified product offering has built interest, which was evidenced by attendees inquiring about propane-fueled mowers at the GIE+EXPO last October."
Reduced Operating Costs
Feehan says interest has grown primarily because landscape companies are realizing that propane-fueled mowers can reduce their operating costs. Sean Dwyer, Husqvarna's global product manager for zero-turn mowers and specialty turf products, tends to agree, explaining that Husqvarna's initial reason for introducing a propane-fueled zero-turn mower was driven by the desire to offer an environmentally friendly option.
"But we quickly saw that there were definite benefits to large fleet operators," Dwyer relates. Those benefits include lower overall cost to operate, reduced maintenance due to stale fuel (gas), and potentially longer engine life.
Feehan says that, when calculating total operating costs, landscape contractors are finding cost-savings in several additional ways:
- Virtually eliminating fuel spillage
- Virtually eliminating fuel leakage
- Virtually eliminating fuel theft
Ivan Giraldo, president of Clean Scapes in Austin, TX, says that one of the main reasons his company switched over to propane mowers a couple of years go has to do with engine performance.
"Propane has allowed us to cut maintenance costs (oil changes) while allowing the engines to operate much cleaner," adds Robert Ortiz, fleet manager at Clean Scapes. "With less carbon deposits in the engine, we have fewer problems with a mower's service life. Propane is approximately 110 octane or higher, which improves performance for the long run." More than half of Clean Scapes' mowers, which include both zero-turn riders and walk-behinds, are propane-fueled.
The price of propane alone may be enough to sway some contractors' opinions. "Choosing propane isn't just about emissions," says Allen Baird, Cub Cadet Commercial product manager. "It's also about savings, as liquid propane generally costs one-third less than gas or diesel fuel."
With analysts predicting $100-a-barrel oil again this year, helping push gas prices to well over $3 a gallon, one must wonder if lawn maintenance contractors who are already struggling to prevent further profit margin erosion will clamor to propane-fueled mowing options. Time will tell.
In the meantime, Scag Power Equipment is one commercial mower manufacturer that's covering its bases. Its Dual-Fuel Turf Tiger, which can run on either gasoline or propane, gives operators the flexibility to burn whichever fuel is cheaper at the moment. Operators can quickly switch between gas and propane with the simple flip of a switch, even while the engine is running.
Environmental Benefits
According to Chris Frame, Scag's director of marketing and technical services, the Dual-Fuel Turf Tiger has gained popularity in areas of the country that have ozone action days, which limit the use of gas-powered lawn mowers when weather conditions run the risk of causing health problems. If the contractor is facing an ozone action day, he can flip the switch and burn propane. When the ozone action day expires, he can switch back to gasoline if he chooses.
"Propane-fueled mowers reduce greenhouse gas emissions by almost 50% compared to gasoline," Feehan says. "There is also an 80% reduction in carbon monoxide when compared to gasoline."

Headlines in Reproductive Medicine November 27, 2013
Some morning-after pills may not be a reliable way to prevent pregnancy in heavier women. The European manufacturer of an emergency contraceptive pill, Norlevo, will caution women in new labeling that the product is "not effective" for women over 176 pounds and doesn't work as well in women who weigh 165 pounds or more.
Low levels of the hormone estrogen are not to blame for mood swings and poor memory after menopause, a new study suggests.
The Supreme Court agreed Tuesday to consider a new challenge to President Obama's Affordable Care Act and decide whether employers with religious objections may refuse to provide their workers with mandated insurance coverage for contraceptives.
Headlines in Reproductive Medicine November 25, 2013
In the last six decades we've invented mobile phones, the internet and microwaves. And yet the contraceptive pill for women is still seen as the default option for sexually active couples. Vicky Spratt talks to a medical doctor-turned professor working on the development of the male pill, and asks whether this will ever become a reality.
Press Releases October 16, 2013
Although there is some public perception that intrauterine devices (IUDs) have a detrimental effect on women's future fertility, women have relatively high pregnancy rates and normal pregnancy outcomes after their removal.
Press Releases October 14, 2013
Researchers from the University of Pennsylvania, presenting their findings at the International Federation of Fertility Societies/American Society for Reproductive Medicine meeting in Boston revealed that there is a significant association between depressive symptoms and high testosterone levels in women as they go through the menopausal transition. The finding however, was only found in Caucasian women, not in African American women.
Press Releases September 24, 2013
Toxic chemicals in the environment harm our ability to reproduce, negatively affect pregnancies, and are associated with numerous other long-term health problems, according to The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (The College) and the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM). In a joint Committee Opinion, The College and ASRM urge ob-gyns to advocate for government policy changes to identify and reduce exposure to toxic environmental agents.

ASRM Bulletins September 12, 2013
The AMA has created a toolkit to help physicians navigate the sweeping new revisions to the federal privacy and security rules for health information that go into effect on Sept. 23, 2013. The Department of Health and Human Services issued a final rule in January that revises and extends required safeguards for protected health information established under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996.
As Members of Congress return to work after their month long August recess, ASRM has joined the Working Group on Pharmaceutical Safety in its call to Congress to close loopholes in the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA) which have allowed for the unsafe manufacturing of drugs by compounding pharmacies. The practices have resulted in serious disease outbreaks and over 60 deaths.
Members are allowed to have direct input in shaping policies and protocols in their area of expertise through ASRM affiliated societies, professional groups, and special interest groups.

Lester Holt interviewed him on a range this morning, 2-19. Very positive interview, and he did some demo bench rest on a metallic silhouette. He had 161 confirmed in Iraq. I thought it was a very positive interview, Jenna Wolfe, in the same segment, was throwing a car around doing the Tokyo Drift and asked Lester Holt if HE was scared being on range around Kyle's rifle! I think what Jenna was doing was a helluva lot more dangerous.
Does anybody know what range this interview was filmed on? It looked very nice, and they said he has returned to his native Texas.

So, found my save file patched today, all stars wiped after about 970 songs played. If I replay all my songs to get all my star displays back, will those stay and be permanent? If so, everyone's data should be patched from the beginning, if possible, to avoid all this.
PS3 User
1,323 songs total and counting
nope, they'll be reset every time around that amount of songs.
my love is like a candle, if you forget me, i will burn your damn house down.
Yeah, it's kind of a bummer, but it's definitely way better than not being able to play the game. The only real drawback for me is that in order to make sure I know if I've played a song or not, I have to check to see if I have a result on the leaderboard, which obviously takes a little longer than just sorting by star result. But once I have played everything I have (which I'm finally getting somewhat close to doing), it'll be easier to keep up with. Fortunately I have gold stars on all but a tiny handful of songs, and most of those I'll be able to get now that I'm comfortable with Jackpot and Flame, so it's really not of much informative use to see my stars anymore. Although it is pretty satisfying seeing rows of gold stars lined up.

Food: Eleven More Incredibly Yum Salads
Written by Pip Lincolne
Be Healthy
4 Comments
How's your Winter trucking along? Mine is chilly but nice, full of comfort food and lots of indoor time. I'm looking forward to busting out when the weather is a bit nicer. I can't wait for warmer days, to lose that chill that's hanging in the air. I'm also looking forward to those warm afternoons, icy drinks, sandals and bare legs. And salads. I am really looking forward to those too. How about you?
Don't get me wrong, I really love comfort food. Soups and stews and slow cooked delights. But I need my comfort interspersed with lots of healthy crunch. I like to mix it up and keep things balanced. Maybe you do too.
There's nothing like a big bowl of crunchy salad to make you feel good. And if you partner it with a chilled glass of wine and maybe even a spoonful of chilli and a few friends, then I think you're totally sorted.
Let's do salad! Let's get crunchy!
