I'm joined by Lilly yelled who is from Fox News lets you know the co-founder and managing partner excel alliance it's great to see Lilley thank you for having me -- Fox News Latino so much traffic web site that has all things that Latino and Latina -- would want to check out.
Including the story you're gonna talk to us today that has so many interesting elements to it and that is the Secret Service and what happened in -- That what are your thoughts today on it.
Well we have heard enough about the gory details of what happened.
Aide who said -- -- Who you know who moved where and who was involved but what's interesting with the with the story that we have on Fox News let -- you know is.
Now what does this mean for the overall Colombian population in the US as well us.
-- the is that large and I think that's the twist on the story.
That I am so glad we're facing here -- talking how how they're reacting it's it's been very interesting -- -- of course is unfortunate with something like this happens in one of our countries of origin.
Because it goes back into perpetuating.
Stereotypes and cut and missing out in the good news of the country in this case Columbia.
What really took it to a whole new level was Spirit Airlines that what they did in promoting.
Cheap flights to -- Under a promotional called bug get you don't more bang for your buck.
Came right after this scandal right after this scandal and the banner out on the Internet actually had.
Images of women in bikinis and had a guy with -- -- says.
I hope we go roller people can actually see that in the let me make one got -- -- -- -- Latino if there's a lot more crying out so it's just it is just a poor way and that tasteless way.
Of driving customers.
To a destination that is historic that is known for being.
World -- -- -- it's that is very far from being.
Spring break destination in -- -- or like Vegas which actually makes sense for it to promote itself like that.
So they are getting a lot of our beloved constitution.
It is now it is -- areas of -- exactly it is says it is in many other countries of the world and certain.
Counties in places in our country.
As well but a war or escort services but that's besides the point I think the big learning here.
For all of you who are hoping to reach Latinos companies.
Politicians organizations.
Is to be very careful -- could be collateral damage that impacts the whole.
You know population.
At large and I think that.
Israeli and -- is because it's the fastest growing population.
All we talk about is how important it is in the upcoming presidential race to -- Hispanics.
People think automatically when they hear Marco Rubio -- it's just people who come from Cuba.
But it's not we have many it's a very diverse population within itself and an important one like you say.
To business owners have you seen anything like this happen before where business.
Brings up something about a country that's been disparaging to countries of origin you know this is the first time that is done so boldly like this and obviously.
That no -- because there was.
You know protests by students there's an organization called -- Colombia here.
Of thirteen different chapters chapters over a thousand students in the US that I -- protesting this online.
Hispanic advertising organizations on Hispanic cat dot com who goes you know reaches out to 25000.
Different professionals also spoke.
Greatly of this.
And you can see it because they turn it down in 24 hours so clearly.
They have to really action.
It's really longer anyway to be found out -- that you have been on the website it is on the web placing you can see the picture that was up immediately after the scandal.
-- I was -- and and became news.
But it didn't last more than 24 hours of clearly they know it is we made a big mistake spirit hasn't said anything about it.
But it's no longer anywhere to be found.
But that that PRs are pretty out and about so at a think it is too late.
And it will impact their loyalty not just with Colombians which is about.
A million customers in the US but -- greater fifteen million Latinos that rally under that label.
A feeling proud.
You know going places making.
You know a better impact in American community and society and here we are.
One more time of course -- -- -- have you heard from them directly since he wrote the piece not at all he might not at all.
I hope so you know even that minister of commerce tourism and you know which -- foreign relations in Colombia I asked for a public apology and they haven't heard anything.
So it's been pretty it's a big deal.
It's a really really glad you have wrote about it I area -- I would Linux everybody can greeted at Fox News Latino and there's a lot more content there.
That's important if you wanna stay in the know on these issues check it out of -- -- a little spirit logo there as part of the story.
It's a pleasure to meet you.
Really leaning back and bring more -- -- -- -- Where you from originally I am originally from Colombia as a on this one really hits home for me it's your heritage you know your country and and you're standing up for -- very admirable -- in anything in this field more so than just an emotional connection it makes business sense to approach this market the right -- -- -- -- all all business folks should consider that in making their decisions including.
Spirit Airlines.

Generally, Apple does not. The most common way is to size things such that half of an item in a list is show. For example, in the iPhone settings app, you can see a partial item shown at the bottom. They don't have scrollbars as an indicator without first touching, and they never have more toolbar buttons than can be shown at once. Content scrolls, not the chrome.

Yeah, in general I think you should make sure you dont have more buttons in your toolbar then you can see. We enabled scrolling on those toolbars just to make the example work on both the phone and the iPad.
15 Jun 2010 10:56 AM #4
How does one enable the scrolling for the toolbar if it has more buttons than are visible?
I would personally like to see the "more" icon as an option, or some other indicator that there are more buttons if you swipe/scroll.
15 Jun 2010 11:14 AM #5
oh i think i figured it out:
var tabPanel = new Ext.TabPanel({
tabBar: {
scroll: 'horizontal'
however, I still feel that users will not know to scroll if there are more items, it needs some visual indicator that there are more...

Mosul, in Northern Iraq, is the country's second largest city and the north's major center for trade, industry and communications. Situated in the northwestern part of the country, on the west bank of Tigris, and close to the ruined Assyrian city of Nineveh, Mosul is called Al-Fayha' (the paradise), Al-Khadhra' (the green), and sometimes described as the Pearl of the North. In this article, the history of the city is narrated and the contribution of its scholars to Muslim Heritage in various domains is described through notable examples.
In this article, published originally in Saudi Aramco World in 1969, focus is laid on the history of Cairo, the capital city of Egypt, founded in 969 by General Gawhar, in the name of the Fatimid Caliph. Written on the occasion of the millemium of Cairo, The author describes the splendours of the city, especially under the Fatimids and the Mamluks, and quotes the testimonies of travellers who visited it in pre-modern times.
The Citadel of Aleppo is one of the oldest monuments in the world. It is the most famous historic architectural site in Syria and is built on top of a huge, partially artificial mound rising 50m above the city and surrounded by a trench. This article describes its internal and external structure and full features including its history.
Merv, was a major oasis-city in Central Asia, on the historical Silk Road, located near today's Mary in Turkmenistan. Several cities have existed on this strategic site, which was significant for the interchange of trade, culture and politics. In the early Islamic period, Merv was the capital of the province of Khurasan, and in the 12th century it was the largest city in the world. The following article surveys some aspects of learning, science and history of Merv as an Islamic city between the 10th and the 13th century. A special focus is laid on the scholars and scientists of Merv, the greatest of whom was Abd Al-Rahman Al-Khazini. Besides being a gifted astronomer, he is the author of Kitab mizan al-hikma, an encyclopedia of mechanics structured about the theory and the practice of various kinds of balances, especially the universal balance, an extremely precise scientific instrument for measuring the weights of bodies and their specific gravities.

Tigers center fielder Austin Jackson takes one of his two walks in Game 4 Wednesday. Jackson was 2-for-2 with two RBIs after being dropped to No. 8 in the batting order. (Elizabeth Conley / Detroit News)
Detroit � Same lineup. Well, not really. But pretty darn close.
There was one minor change for the Tigers for Game 5 of the American League Championship Series on Thursday night at Comerica Park. Manager Jim Leyland �decided to move Omar Infante up a spot and Alex Avila down a spot. Makes sense, with the Tigers facing Red Sox left-hander Jon Lester.
Leyland, meanwhile, maintained his stance that the lineup change for Game 4 wasn�t behind the Tigers� bats suddenly coming alive in a 7-3 victory.
�It wasn�t a drastic lineup, in my opinion,� Leyland said. �The one mission was to try to get Austin maybe away from it a little bit and let him relax a little bit.�
And it worked. Jackson was 2-for-2 � two opposite-field singles � with two walks, two runs and a stolen base. The bases-loaded walk in the second inning helped spark a five-run rally.
�He had a terrific game,� Leyland said. �From that standpoint, the mission was accomplished.�
�It still had nothing to do with (Torii) Hunter driving in two runs with a big hit,� the manager added about Hunter�s two-run double in the second inning.
Jackson, the Tigers leadoff hitter all season and in the postseason until Game 4, again will bat eighth for Game 5.
�You could see in that first at-bat he was more relaxed,� Leyland said. �You could he hadn�t been feeling real comfortable, but all of a sudden in an RBI situation, he was more relaxed, didn�t panic and was just looking for a good pitch to hit.
�And when he didn�t get it, he took it. I was thrilled with that.�

On top of over the top spending on Social Security Medicare and Medicaid.
The Wall Street Journal Steve Moore Smith of Washington doesn't deal well this mess there were all in a lot of trouble.
See you know we we keep -- over and over again it was a big topic during a debate and yet.
You know as its fiscal -- Anxiety -- I don't hear anyone talking about entitlements.
Does not amazing actually.
-- -- wanna go back to what Jesus said -- about.
-- -- something like 45 million I don't know the exact number someone somewhere right around 45 million Americans on food stamps.
But you know we think about that's one out of seven Americans and that means.
That the one out of seven Americans is gonna have their Turkey dinner paid for by taxpayers and that that -- an abomination.
-- the system that what is wrong with our country that people can't even afford to put food on the table I think it's it's a real testament that.
How lousy this economy -- and by the way how much we've created an entitlement mentality that everybody just feels like they're entitled to out to these food stamps now.
When you look at these costs of these programs as you know it within about ten years all of our tax revenues at the federal -- From the income tax are gonna go just -- -- Entitlement programs -- no money left over to pay for.
For all of the other programs of the government and I invited very suspicious and uninteresting as you do Charles that here we have -- talk about this fiscal but for the last couple weeks -- and nobody's talking about reforming these things.
And here's the thing the election is already be got some ideas don't worry about their own granny granny -- Let it out there you know -- got a couple years to do damage control but ultimately.
If everyone's got their had to send down a Washington didn't do we just somehow hit this report by the ways they've.
We haven't talked about the interest on all the debt that we go between at any of the -- programs.
-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- How great -- point by the way you know when I talk about the exploding costs of entitlements there is something growing faster than entitlement costs.
That's interest on the -- which actually in ten years will be the most expensive single program in the federal budget but.
You know it's hard to reform these programs when that when the Democrats and the and the unions -- unions are wrong that's actually the Democrat party the first thing they sat in their press conference after the that would present Obama is we're not gonna tolerate any any any reductions.
And any of these programs so it makes it very difficult.
To to do anything about reforming -- when you have one party that doesn't want to do it.
You know defenses -- centerpiece of the fiscal clip on the spending side.
At some point it would be up to the Republican to somehow convince the American public.
That you know legendary have to and we have to perform these things in order to save these things so.
You know to a large degree we have to be concerned that listen that they're not articulating this -- to the point work.
People are saying no I'm not -- I'm not ready to -- even -- that did the irony of course is that.
You know any sort of -- that any reasonable person would suggest would hit anyone.
Older than forty years.
All right now.
But what was depressing there -- a lot of things that were depressing about the election but I think one of the smaller press that most depressing thing as.
I don't but I don't really think Charles that the American people really care that much about the Dobson I mean it certainly didn't voters if they get and then when it comes to these entitlement programs that you're talking about.
You know no matter what your party is -- whether you agree with Paul Ryan are not having Paul Ryan did put some pretty bold initiatives try to bring these costs down.
And people just rejected it so I I think we took a step back in this last election in terms of fixing these programs.
Well now having having said that you know a lot of people say why paid in the Social Security -- -- -- that.
But you know.
Certainly after obamacare I don't see how Medicaid can hold up I mean I think that they're gonna collapse a lot sooner than any -- in -- any economist has forecast.
And you know what Charles there's a good reason why that program I agree with you that may be the first entitlement program we actually do -- and here's the reason why.
Not because it's bankrupting Washington can watch as the backdrop for fifteen years.
The reason we're probably pick citizens bankrupting the states on -- -- the -- pay about 40% of the costs and every governor I talked to finally you've got a lot of governors basically can't afford this anymore it is it is now becoming that pat.
-- out of our budget just eating up everything else our entire state budget so.
I agree with -- that -- the program we explorer's and you know -- to your point states cannot print money Steve -- Wall Street Journal that the balance the budget have a -- -- -- novel idea like everybody else out there are things like -- have a great things gives out future happy Thanksgiving all right we'll have to deal.

By Sharmine Narwani
What a difference a week can make in the Middle East.
On October 19, when a car bomb tore through the upscale Christian neighborhood of Achrafiyeh in Beirut killing a major security official, Lebanon shuddered in fear that the era of political assassinations was back.
Politicians and commentators didn't miss a beat. The murder of Internal Security Forces (ISF) Information Branch head Wissam al-Hassan was compared to the killing of his former boss, ex-PM Rafiq Hariri in 2005. And the Hariri-allied pro-West, anti-Syria, pro-Saudi "March 14" political coalition lined up to deliver a visceral blow to their opponents, just as they had in 2005 when they ejected Syrian troops from Lebanon.
Hassan's body was not yet cold before his political allies started pointing their fingers at Syria and whipping up fury in the anti-Syrian Sunni enclaves of Lebanon. Young men spilled onto the streets with weapons brandished; some with RPGs and even combat uniforms. Clashes ensued, people died, but still their March 14 leaders did not call for calm.
In a replay of 2005 when hundreds of thousands of Lebanese rose up in the State Department-dubbed "Cedar Revolution" to oust the Syrians, March 14 groups on Sunday called for the masses to rally against Syria and its Lebanese government allies.
Except that not a single Syrian was ever charged by the international UN-backed tribunal that investigated Hariri's death. And last week there was no evidence that Syria was implicated in Hassan's assassination either. (more…)

Preview: Brewers at Cardinals
If the St. Louis Cardinals hold on to win the National League Central, their dominance over the Milwaukee Brewers will be a big reason. The Cardinals have won 12 of 15 meetings this season, and they'll try to add to that total and complete a three-game sweep of the visiting Brewers on Thursday. St. Louis, which has won five straight overall, owns a one-game division lead over Pittsburgh.
The Cardinals already have clinched their fifth straight series win at home, where they are 6-2 against Milwaukee. The Brewers are trying to stay out of the division cellar, as they're one-half game ahead of the Chicago Cubs. Milwaukee has lost the first two games of the series despite having its starters taking no-hitters into the sixth inning, and it hopes for more of the same from rookie Tyler Thornburg, who has gone six innings and allowed two or fewer runs in each of his four starts this season.
TV: 8:15 p.m. ET, FSN Wisconsin (Milwaukee), FSN Midwest (St. Louis)
PITCHING MATCHUP: Brewers RH Tyler Thornburg (1-1, 2.08 ERA) vs. Cardinals RH Joe Kelly (8-3, 2.74)
Thornburg has pitched out of the bullpen for most of his time in the majors, but his return to the rotation on Sept. 2 against Pittsburgh went well. The 24-year-old allowed two runs on six hits over six innings but was a tough-luck loser in a 5-2 defeat. Thornburg hasn't faced the Cardinals this year, but he did in 2012, allowing two runs on five hits over 4 2/3 frames in a no-decision.
Kelly has been the savior of the Cardinals' staff, going 8-0 with a 2.10 ERA in 11 starts since joining the rotation in July. He hasn't lost since June 5 and has allowed fewer than two runs in eight of his last 10 outings. The 25-year-old is 1-2 with a 4.79 ERA in six career games (three starts) against Milwaukee and has yielded four runs in three frames over three relief appearances versus the Brewers this year.
1. St. Louis C Yadier Molina and brother Bengie, the Cardinals' assistant hitting coach, missed Wednesday's game because of what manager Mike Matheny described as a "family personal matter." It was unclear when the Molinas would rejoin the club.
2. Brewers RF Norichika Aoki, who had two of Milwaukee's six hits Wednesday, is 5-for-9 with two doubles versus Kelly.
3. Milwaukee LF Khris Davis has missed five straight games with a sore left wrist but was able to hit in the cage Wednesday and might be able to play Thursday.
PREDICTION: Cardinals 4, Brewers 2

CHI Air Classic Tourmaline Ceramic 1" Flat Iron - Onyx Black
GoldfishHairBlackNormal HairDry HairChemically Treated HairJust Got ItII just got it in the mail, but it heats up really fast and goes well with the temperature adjustments, changing quickly between degrees. The only problem I have with it is that I feel like it burns my hair.. but I've just gone through a few months of bleaching and dying my hair so that just might be me. But overall it's alright. Not as great as I expected, but not terrible.posted Sep 9, 2013Link to this post
MbNCSeems To Be The BestI bought a CHI iron for my daughter 12-14 years ago and it just now quit working. She wanted another CHI to replace it. She says that over the years she and her girlfriends have compared their different model irons and her CHI always straightens and smooths the best. It lasted way longer than I expected. I was happy to buy her another one.posted Jun 27, 2013Link to this post

Jessica A.Miami , FLHairBlackNormal HairFirst Time Buyer Of Chi , Very DisappointedBefore I bought the CHI Iron in PINK I had to research and see the review for it . I was excited in buying my CHI because the feedback were to my expectations. After I bought it in March I didn't use it often probably like 3 times because I always have a flat iron as my back up even tho its old and used it works better than the CHI. Now in the end of May I decided to use my CHI Iron and it didn't turn on! I was very disappointed to find out that CHI has a defect on the cord. HANDS DOWN TO CHI . My expectation for you guys were very disappointed.posted Jun 5, 2013Link to this post
CrystalGreat Product But Poor Quality!I have bought two Chi flat irons and have had the same problems with both. The first one I bought the on and off switch fried and melted so I was unable to use the chi. I had this Chi for about two years. The second one I got it started getting a short in the power cord around the base of the chi. Since it was out of warranty I used the power cord from my broken one and put it on the newer one. This lasted fine for about two years and now the power switch just fried and melted. Both of these are common issues for Chi's according to online search results. Chi's work great but from my experience they don't last very long and with being so pricy that is an important factor. I'm spending a little more money and going with a GHD plus at least GHD's have a 2 year warranty unlike CHI's.posted May 15, 2013Link to this post
Dr. MomGeorgiaHairBlondeNormal HairColor Treated HairExpensive, But Worth It!This is my second Chi flatiron -- left the first one behind in a hotel, sigh. The new one has an adjustment for the heat setting, which is very nice.
It heats up quickly, is easy to handle, and does a wonderful job. I love the way you can straighten your hair or curl it. Be sure to watch the online videos for directions.
Infinitely better than the many drugstore cheap ones I've bought over the years.posted Mar 21, 2013Link to this post -

It pulls and doesn't starighten my hair as the Sedu brand did.posted Mar 5, 2013Link to this post
EmmaThis Iron Is Bad...don't Waste Your Money On It!!This flat iron ruined my hair after a week!! It takes about 45 minutes to straighten, and it tugs on your hair!! It's not worth the money- I suggest you buy the Solia ceramic flat iron instead. It's wayyyy better than this stupid iron!!posted Jan 17, 2013Link to this post
Yolanda A.United StatesHairDark BrownNormal HairI Would Not Buy It Again!Same thing as Phiona. I bought it, always took good care of it, and little after a year of having it, all of a sudden it stopped working.

(EDA) Supervisor: Dr. Morteza SAhebzamani Overview (History, motivation, outstanding features) History: AUT EDA Group was established in 2000 at the Department of Computer Engineering and Information Technology, Amirkabir University of Technology. Motivation: The mission of this group is education and research on Electronic design automation (EDA) physical design algorithms and methods, analysis and design of new physical design algorithms and newly goes to develop automatic layout tools. Outstanding features: A physical design tool, called ATLAS (Automatic Tool for Layout Synthesis) has been developed in this lab. ATLAS is a full physical synthesis tool for automatic standard cell layout generation. It supports partitioning, floor-planning, placement, clock routing, power routing, global routing and detailed routing and final GDSII generation of a digital design. ATLAS core is a micro-kernel with two efficient user interfaces (i.e..scriptive and graphical) and a plug-in mechanism to easily attach to any external tool to it (Fig 1). Fig 1. ATLAS system structure ATLAS Plug-in Environment (APLE) provides a felxible mechanism to connect any other tool to ATLAS kernel. APLE connects any new tool via a scripting interpreter (TCL). Using TCL, the tools which are attached to ATLAS and their configuration can be changed at run time. Therefore, the designer can change design flow and algorithm types easily at run time. ATLAS uses a centralized and in-memory database called atlasDB for all levels of physical design information. atlasDB is an object-oriented database that provides full type coverage and systematic API mechanism to data retrieving and data manipulation on atlasDB. ATLAS has two user interfaces: a shell user interface and a graphical user interface. In the shell user interface, the designer can execute all operations using shell commands that is very effective in electronic design automation (EDA). In graphical user interface, operations can be accessed via graphical menus and user-friendly views on placement, routing and layout can be created. ATLAS algorithms support all required functionalities to automatic creation of the layout. It contains floor-planning, partitioning, cell placer, PAD placer, clock, power, global and detailed router and analyzers in various levels of design hierarchy. ATLAS input and output formats are fully de-facto standards. It supports DEF and EDIF for design, LEF for library, GCF and SDF for constraints and delays and GDSII for layout. Features Highly modular By using APLE, any new engine can be easily plugged into ATLAS micro-kernel. ATLAS Plug-in Builderutility was developed to automatically attach any new tool to ATLAS. Centralized in-memory DB atlasDB is a universal, flexible, centeralized and in-memory database for physical design information, including atlasDesign for design information, atlasLib, atlasTech for library and technology items, atlasDelay for delay information and atlasCon for constraints. Standard input/output format All input and output formats are widely used and industrial de-facto formats. These standards are LEF/DEF for design and library, GCF for constraints, SDF for delay and GDSII for layout. High quality design engines All physical design algorithms are novel approaches that are innovated and validated by academic researches. Linux-based platform ATLAS was designed and implemented based on Linux OS, because of the more increasing interest to Linux EDA. User friendly user interfaces ATLAS has two user interfaces, shell user interface is suitable for batch processing and graphical user interface for interactive design activities. High performance Qt-based GUI Qt library is an industrial library to implement the GUI in EDA tools. This library is portable to Linux, Solaris and Windows. Research focus/goals: The main focus of research in this lab is electronic design automation. Related research areas include biological design automation (BDA), hardware security issues and chip authentication, reconfigurable systems, physical design automation. Equipments Research projects: People (Education, Specialty); Photo Gallery : People: http://ceit.aut.ac.ir/EDA/members.htm experimental/equipment setup: Posters from conferences: .

Some of the most traveled names -- business gathering at the Milken conference in Los Angeles today and Beverly Hills no less -- -- David how is it -- got a first.
Perhaps this is interview with the head of the country's biggest futures exchange can't wait.
Well the first thing he said by the way is we're -- come -- was is that I have to say hello to you from Terry -- -- Terry you go ahead hello.
And I don't.
Great to see we're so happy you got -- first on Fox Business with David can't wait to -- we have to say David.
Are right thank you Terry good deceived by the way not only you chairman of CME group -- now -- president president has if you didn't have enough didn't have enough to add a little bit to the plate then what next street -- do is -- is now just a little bit more reporting.
From different.
Parts organization whether it's -- -- whether some public relations whether it's it legal so they're more coming to not to me directly now.
That must take a lot of your time it does David it takes probably good sixty to 70% of my time -- -- when -- look at CME group.
We're highly regulated and -- told my board constantly -- to do know we're maybe it's record company we're a technology company were clearing organization and we also have a regulatory part of our.
Organization that.
If we can't make sure this is okay of those other businesses will suffer so it's.
Very much -- folks -- now there's a lot of high talk in Washington that that perhaps you shouldn't be self regulators what's the latest on that well I would say that they don't we have the biggest interest and self regulation anybody else in the world publicly held company would.
We don't have a credible marketplace and we don't have incredible business and we have the expertise and self regulation -- nobody else has an expertise so.
There's a lot of arguments why it works for us we had an isolated incidents.
Granted it was a very large one.
But the same time I think you look at the we've seen these models been -- over last hundred years has been fairly flawless RI MF global.
In the news.
A lot of people of we have bond traders say that they have money stolen from them are they right.
Well you know I'm not a judge and jury David but -- testified four times now on MF global and it's been a very disturbing event not only in.
The -- Folgers CME but you know for our clients and yes -- monies are -- an attempt demise are missing you may want to consider them stolen.
So hopefully these people look at the money back CME's you know put up 550 million dollars to encourage trustee to go up to a certain level he went to 72 cents in the dollar.
Now there's another and or distribution of -- is -- updated two cents of the dollar so.
Hopefully more more this money will come back and we convicted these people all this money was stolen -- you surprised there's not a criminal indictment.
If money is still and I will be very surprised that a criminal indictment yes.
And any.
Is is there an investigation ongoing because we haven't heard much about you know again we have been not asked to have our own investigation we make sure that we did a forensic analysis of what we did internally units come back very very plain self again we'll leave it up to the authorities to make those terminations up.
We were talking about some of them.
People were worshipped by this crisis for some of them were the ones who can least afford it the farmers and every audit that spend their life savings that -- their bets in order prevents disaster in the future.
Is there anything you'd be done for them well one of the things that we came up with David right away it was the family Farmers Insurance -- so going forward now we are going to.
Have a hundred million dollar fund for farmers and ranchers to guarantee -- or.
Trades at CME group so to put that in the perspective villages a hundred million dollars doesn't talk a lot of money.
But if in fact that plan was -- to take a lot of money to make a lot of might need to put that money was in place today every farmer and rancher was -- CME group would have got a 100% of their money return.
That's providing the seventy cents a dollar came back so it is a very significant -- by us in the group.
Looking to the future how do you avoid problems like this well I think there's a couple different ways right now we're talking about haven't CEOs and CFOs sign off on any type of distribution of segregated funds I mean I I'm a big bully really got to stiffen the penalties and in -- 145000.
Find the CFTC for a second violation seems a little perverse wonders one point six or one point two or 700 million dollars -- So there I think that the finds it to be made -- doing this and sent people from doing bad things and -- in addition to -- -- Sometimes that's not.
Not much for people I mean it may sound like a lot of money to us right but it's only 1% of their holdings right should be even more than just fights EI -- censure from trading -- -- -- every a lot of different things about do and I'm hoping that the congress and the regulars come up with some new plants to make sure this never happens again.
Let's talk commodities over a second -- a lot of folks out there wanna know what you think.
The future -- you've -- these huge jumps in.
In most commodities some people say it's because of that what's gonna happen in the future.
Well it's -- commodities is always hard because you look at.
There are always weather dependent you know especially when you look at agricultural products this year we are projected to have the third worst to winner in the midwest -- history.
We probably had a lot -- -- -- the -- in the midwest and history so in return you don't have as much smoke volume that was much water underground.
What does that mean coming -- to the growing season so that could also have an effect on prices going forward.
Again it's all.
Yet to be seen.
But you know these are very personal products so we need to were feeding the world today -- and people's appetites of change dramatically and their appetite for our food products has changed met and the economy in general.
-- -- -- in general I mean the markets have been actually trading fairly well I mean I'm not an economist -- set on a panel of an economist today and he lost a few -- that look I had in mind that.
-- look at a very real.
Approach towards economy I think that world is looking for yield dividend paying stocks things of that nature.
It doesn't appear -- -- of any interest rate movement any time soon so people need to earn money on the money.
-- -- -- that -- to do that -- -- market so I think you're looking at low volatility.
High dividend paying stocks.
And that's what people are -- to right now Terry Duffy wonderful to see in my David thank you very hard for having me hello again I'm sorry Liz wasn't here well list -- New York sun comes -- I don't know -- stuff.

TeamViewer Remote Session Control Now on Linux
The free remote access solution comes to the open source community.
After a huge customer request, TeamViewer 5.0 can now allow remote access to, and remote control of, Linux systems over the net. That is, provided TeamViewer is running on the remote host as a standalone program –– special client or server versions aren't available.
Remote support requires the unique ID and password of the client (which can also be stored, but is normally newly created at startup). Through a worldwide accessible central registration server over the Internet, which is 256-bit encrypted over a UDP connection between the hosts, remote session control is possible without port forwarding even over routers and through firewalls. Only when a proxy or firewall with content filters prevents it does the transfer run over the TeamViewer servers. Especially noticeable is the speed; session control runs effectively even over modem connections. The German software maker enhanced compression significantly so that less data needs to be transferred.
The modified WINE-based version performed perfectly in a short test and provided a multitude of integrated functions that are relevant for remote session management, such as restarts and easy data transfers between systems. Even multiple logins on common hosts is possible, such as to demonstrate something to multiple users. The VoIP chat and video chat functions are useful in this case, although transfers are available only on the receiver end under Linux because V4L webcams are not yet supported. Laudable is that TeamView is based on the free Speex audio and Theora video codecs. A couple of limitations for the Linux version are that the collaborative whiteboard function is missing and VPN support isn't available. An X server is required; virtual consoles aren't supported.
Because the software smiths prepared the program for Windows and Mac OS X downloads, Linux users can access these systems as well, or can be managed by them. An option allows viewing the remote host tasks by screencast. After registering on the product page, Web browser access is possible and even an iPhone app is available.
TeamViewer provides deb and rpm packages for Linux in version 5.0.8206 for download, with an additional 64-bit deb package and a simple tar.gz version that doesn't require installation. The program is free for individuals and under cost-based licensing for commercial customers.
Very useful indeed

MONDAY, February 14, 1881--2 p. m.The Lieutenant Governor commanded attention while the Divine blessing was invoked by Rev. J P. Williams.
The special order coming up--Mr. Wood's bill [S. 132] to appropriate $6,000 to remove a sand-bar in the Calumet River--the question being on a Committee report recommending that it lie on the table--
Mr. WOOD advocated the passage of the bill as an act of justice to people who are sustaining injury every year because of an act of an agent of the State. He spoke as follows:
MR. PRESIDENT-Several years ago the State dug a ditch from Cady Marsh Lake to the Calumet River. The ditch was dug through a high sand ridge directly to the river, so that the fiowage from this marsh washed the sand from the ridge into the river channel and filled it, a distance of three quarters of a mile. In dry seasons, with no freshets, the small farmers along this stream raise good crops, but when freshets come all their crops and labor are lost. The State dug this ditch and ought to appropriate this sum of money to remove the sand-bar caused by the negligence or unskillful conduct of its agents who performed the work. The people badly damaged some years and more or less others, have no redress but to appeal to the justice of the General Assembly. If individuals had caused this damage to the small land owners by digging this ditch, they could sue and receive some compensation for the injury done, but the State can not be sued. No proceedings were had to condemn the lands or appraisements had of damages to the lot-owners whose lands are rendered partially worthless for growing crops in wet seasons, by reason of this sand-bar. I have an affidavit of two of our best and oldest citizens upon this subject, which I now read (affidavit read). Now Senators, this is a small sum of money and I state upon this floor that no equal sum of money appropriated for any purpose by this General Assembly will be more beneficial in its results and more just in its purpose.
The report was rejected and the bill ordered engrossed.
Another special order coming up--being Mr. Comstock's bill [S. 79] concerning the purchase of toll roads and their maintenance--
Mr. RISTINE moved to amend by substituting new matter for Section 4, providing for paying off the bonds in the same way as bonds issued for the construction of free gravel roads, and that lands assessed for the construction of free roads shall be exempt from taxation. The bill would work a hardship, because it would require parties assessed for free gravel roads to pay an equal amount for the new roads.
Mr. COMSTOCK doubted the propriety of the amendment in its present form. He defended the provision in the bill which includes for taxation those lands which have paid amounts for the building of gravel roads--the additional tax would not be construed as any great hardship. And the policy of issuing bonds when there is money on hand would not be commended by business men. He should regret to see the amendment adopted.
Mr. SHAFFER heartily favored the adoption of the substitute for Section 4 of the bill. He doubted whether many Counties in the State would be affected by the bill. The unfairness of taxing the entire taxable property of the County for the purchase of new roads should be apparent to all.
Mr. RISTINE replied to the objections urged by the author of the bill.
Mr. COMSTOCK moved to amend the amendment by debarring Counties in debt from purchasing roads.
This amendment was agreed to, and the amendment as amended was adopted.
Mr. SMITH moved to strike out all that refers to submitting to a vote of the people. He favored the passage of some law favoring purchasing of roads by County Commissioners. This bill requires a submission to a vote of the people, and Townships through which the road does not pass will vote against the proposition. The Legislature should assume some responsibility in this matter.
Mr. GARRIGUS was in accord with the Senator who has just taken his seat. A system of free roads is best for the people of the State. If the page: 179[View Page 179] proposition for purchase is to be submited to a vote of the County he did not believe one County in the State would vote for it. The effect of a law such as this bill proposes would be nugatory. Let us not make it more difficult to purchase a toll road than to build a free gravel road. The ampendment aims in the right direction.
Mr. GRAHAM favored the bill as it now stands, for the reason he did not believe power should lodge with County Commissioners to purchase roads and levy tax to raise a revenue to do so. When we tax the people we should go as near to the people as possible. We could see how unfair this bill might prove to be. The Board could purchase a road against of the will of the people. He favored free rcads, and spoke for a district having a large extent of toll roads it. It would be dangerous to allow County Commissioners to discriminate as between the way that roads should be purchased. If there is really any necessity for purchasing a toll road, it could be done under the provisions of the bill as it is. Let the people be consulted, and let them determine whether they desire a road purchased or not.
Mr. SPANN regarded this as a bill of considerable importance. He was decidedly opposed to the amendment. It is giving more power to the County Commissioners of the County, while the County Commissoners have too much power already, and by this amendment it would put it in their power to purchase every gravel road in their respective Counties upon a petition of fifty men, and it would put the whole purchasing power in the hands of six men, who might be corrupted. As has been said, the people should be consulted upon such questions. The men who raise the tax to raise money to pay the bond should be consulted. In the County where he lived there is not a free gravel road; they are all to-day in the hands of a few men composing soulless corporations. Every on of these roads have been built at the expense of the people--nearly every one by taxation of the people, and by this bill the tax-payer can be made to pay for them over again. In the of all that is good and true, have not the County Commissioners of Indiana now power enought in their hands? How easy would it be to get fifty persons along the line of the road to petition for its purchase and to find three men ao appraise it at a high price and get it purchased by the County Board. There is no safeguard against a fraudulent transaction under the pending amendment. It is proposed in this bill to tax all the land and all the property in the Count to purchase any road the County Commissioners may choose, etc.
Mr. BRISCOE believed in free speech, free vote, free trade and sailors' rights, but was opposed to this amendment. There is a cat in the meal tub. He did not like the idea in this amendment providing that all power shall be taken from the people and vested in County Commissioners and three others, with the Judge of the Circuit Court. There you are getting a ring within a ring. Those six men shall determine, without any expression from the people, as to whether a road shall be purchased or not. He opposed clothing two, three or six men with absolute power to make a contract with the County Commissioners and fix the price the County shall pay for a toll road. How easy for skinners and thieves to get together, good at addition, division and silence, and divide the spoil with corporations who desire to get rid of their roads. He opposed the bill in toto, unless the people of the County are allowed by a free and honest vote to say whether the County shall purchase or not. He was astonished at such a proposition coming from the Senator from Delaware (Mr. Smith), who represents a County where you can not ride hardly forty rods without being caught under one of these dead-falls--a long pole swinging over the road --controlled by men with more power than the Queen of Great Britain, and yet irresponsible to the law.
Mr. COMSTOCK regarded the provisions submitting this question to the County Commissioners as being a harmless one.
The amendment was rejected.
Mr. BELL moved a substitute for Section 4 by changing the proviso relating lands over-assesed. He said after the matter was submitted to the vote of the people it is not mandatory, but left discretionary with the Board whether the price be paid or not. It would be difficult, if not impossible, to comply with Section 4 as it now stands. At any rate it would result in diffculty and confusion.
Mr. RISTINE opposed the injustice of assessing lands more than once for the purchase of roads. It would certainly be equitable.
Mr. GARRIGUS considered the amendment as unfair, in that it exempts the lands of those who helped build the road. If they are benefited with all the others, their lands should be assessed.
Mr. MARVIN thought this question a little complicated. If land is taxed to build a toll road and then taxed again to buy that road in order to make it a free road, of course that is double taxation. He did not see how this system could be carried out in justice to all the people of the County where many such roads have been built. In one of the Counties he represents some gravel roads have been built by taxation and some toll roads have been built as stock roads, and now they are building free gavel roads by taxation of the land within two miles on either side. Now, if a law be passed taxing all the people equally to pay bonds issued for the purchase of free roads, and some of the people will be taxed unjustly and wrongfully. Free gravel roads are the roads for this country, and they who procure the passage of a bill making all the roads free, will be doing an act that will benefit the whole State. This bill will not accomplish such a work.
The substitute was rejected.
Mr. SHAFFER moved a substitute for Section 5, so if this bill should become a law and the County Commissioners should convert any toll road into free roads they would stand on the same footing as other free roads.
Mr. COMSTOCK had no objection to any amendment which would improve the bill, but he doubted whether this amendment would be an improvement.
Mr. GRUBBS thought the amendment obviates a difficulty by placing these roads where they ought to be and where the existing law places them. To place them under Road Supervisors would destroy harmony in their management.
On motion by Mr. MENZIES, the emergency clause was stricken out.
The bill was ordered engrossed.
The bill [H. R. 27,] to provide for submission of legal questions by the General Assembly for decision to the Supreme Court was read the second time, and indefinitely postponed.
The bill [H. R. 23] to enable certain foreign corporations to hold and convey real estate in this State was passed to the third reading.

Fix Movies Dashboard widget in OS X
If you use Apple's Movies widget for the Dashboard you may have found that recently it stopped providing results and instead gives a "no movie data available" warning when you enter your location information.
Yesterday I covered some details of the Movie widget problem, and found that it is rooted in Apple's use of the server "wu.apple.com" to provide the movie data, which apparently is not working properly and gives a "Service Unavailable" error when accessed.

The ingredients for the rickey are simple: lime, sugar, soda, and ice. But as I've learned during my hunt for information about the drink (it's a variation on the rickey cocktail that became popular during prohibition) and experimenting with various ingredients on hand, I've realized that tiny variations like adding fruits, changing sweeteners, and working with different shapes of ice can elevate, intensify, and even entirely transform the drink.
Ingredients:1 medium-sized lime, cut into quarters, 1oz. fresh lime juice, 2-1/2 tablespoons white sugar, 8oz. club soda (optional--6oz. club soda, 2oz. gin), ice.
Preparation: Place lime wedges,lime juice and sugar into a pint glass. Muddle, mixing the sugar and limes. Add ice, and club soda. Mix and enjoy a tart, citrusy refesher!

It is a scene that has not been witnessed at Harvard in the past 41 years: This week, U.S. Army cadets in uniform performed their 6:30 a.m. exercise routine on campus, the sun rising behind Harvard Stadium and reflecting on the faces of the students.
The Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps, better known as ROTC, has returned to the Ivy League school after being dropped from campus in 1971 as a result of student protests against the Vietnam War. Later, the justification for the continued ban of ROTC programs at Harvard changed: The "don't ask, don't tell" policy, which prevented gay men and lesbians from serving openly in the military, was cited as the reason ROTC students, who could still study at Harvard, had to travel to MIT for their required Army courses. Now this policy has been abolished. (Harvard opened an office for the Navy ROTC in September 2011.)
At the 2012 ROTC commissioning ceremony at Harvard, school President Drew Gilpin Faust congratulated the new ROTC graduates and emphasized the importance of this new military-civilian partnership to U.S. society.
"As Harvard seeks to shape that society and educate its citizens, it must necessarily be connected to its military. We must ensure that Harvard students understand military service as a choice to consider and honor, even if -- and perhaps especially if -- they pursue other paths," said Faust.
Kathryn Roth-Douquet, former Clinton administration Defense Department official and author of "AWOL: The Unexcused Absence of America's Upper Classes from the Military and How it Hurts Our Country," has long criticized the ban of ROTC programs from Harvard and other Ivy League schools, including Yale, Columbia and Brown.
Roth-Douquet said, "Ivy League schools pride themselves to recruit and train the opinion-shapers and decision-makers in our society and these people need to understand the military. Everything else is dangerous for our democracy in which civilians control the military and need to do that intelligently."
In her many years of speaking to students on Ivy League campuses, she has heard stories of ROTC cadets feeling the need to go undercover on campus because of hostile reactions from faculty and students. "I heard about one incident in which ROTC students at Harvard were called 'baby killers' when they walked across campus. Recently, though, I see more support for the military in the schools. That is why this change of policy is so significant, because it improves military-civilian relationships," she said.
This positive view is shared by Lt. Col. Adam T. Edwards, a professor of military science at MIT and the commanding officer for the ROTC battalion. "Just the fact that we are back on the campus and were welcomed with open arms. Our students can openly wear their uniforms in and around campus, thereby heightening awareness for the armed services. And there is the symbolic portion to it, the re-partnering. The whole idea that Harvard talked about service and one aspect is service to the nation, through our military services."
Historically, Harvard had been at the forefront of establishing a Reserve Officers' Training Corps on campus. In 1916 some of the first ROTC cadets were studying at Harvard. In fact, Roth-Douquet said, Harvard actively demanded and argued for ROTC students. "Harvard was hoping to establish contemporary civilian morals, norms and culture within the military because they recognized America was on the brink of becoming a world power, and they wanted to make sure the military carried U.S. civil values abroad."
This belief changed drastically during the Vietnam War when American civilian and military culture drifted widely apart. That is when some Ivy League schools, including Harvard, expelled ROTC programs from their campuses. In the later years, however, Kathryn Roth-Douquet said she believes the Ivy League schools upheld the ban because it was convenient and avoided conflict rather than because of "don't ask, don't tell."
"The law was created by Congress," she said. "It is not in the military's power to change it. But it was easy and comfortable for the schools to blame and punish the military. I think that was unethical."
Nevertheless, the retraction of "don't ask, don't tell" by Congress in 2010 marked the turning point in the policy change regarding ROTC programs at most Ivy League schools. Now only Brown University continues to ban military exercises and classes on campus.
Today, Harvard is home to 30 ROTC students. Their morning exercise in front of Harvard Stadium will probably become a regular scene on campus.

Plan B
The company began in 1991 as the skateboard industry made a move into a more progressive era. The upstart mastermind was led by Mike Ternasky who featured team riders like Danny way, Matt Hensley, Mike Carroll, Sean Scheffey, and Rick Howard. In 1994, Plan B leader Ternasky was in an unexpectedly car accident that claimed his life. Plan B was left in the hands of close friends, Danny Way and Colin McKay. They made a valiant effort in trying to manage both their own professional skateboarding careers, keep the Plan B operation up and running, plus dealing with the loss of a their best friend.
In 2005, Plan B in association with Syndrome Distribution, re-launched with an added set of professionally elite skaterboarders. The new team consisted of Paul Rodriguez, Colin McKay, Ryan Gallant and PJ Ladd. The company has prevailed through the hard time and has produced a brand that is familiar throughout the global skateboard community. The company features top of the line skateboards that are made in North America.
The 2011 Plan B Skateboard Team is now Paul Rodriguez, Ryan Sheckler, Pat Duffy, PJ Ladd, Colin McKay, Danny Way, Torey Pudwill
