The Hidden
Sorry I was not here otherwise, I would have had a few good suggestions.
a suggestion has been made, I will just direct you to a list with some good films. I have seen most http://www.superliminal.com/melinda/tgmovies.htm
Best ones are
Beautiful Boxer (2003), Soldier's Girl (2003), Hedwig and the Angry Inch (2001) <-it's a really worth while rock opera, Different for Girls (1996)
not on that list but a fun movie "Girls Will Be Girls" (2003)
The catch, all the rolls of all the female characters in the film are played by queens. Even the picture of a little girl is the directors son in a dress and wig. It plays like a soap opera but it is hilarious because they play it 'straight'.Originally Posted by Wikipedia
Also I said Hard or soft Sci-Fi, not Space opera. I do love Firefly and Serenity but they are a classic example of a Space opera.
Ok so for my next suggestion Time Travel.

For me, some old school Sci Fi or Horror. Cult preferably.
I think Intouchables would go under a criminal movie wouldn't it? If you havent seen it, go see it!
I like action packed movies. For example, Skyfall, Looper, Mission Impossible etc
A lot of people are afraid of heights. Not me, I'm afraid of widths.
A african american, a muslim, and a alien walk into a bar, what does everyone say? Hello Mr. President
Snatch would be great if for some god forsaken reason you haven't seen it yet, if you have: then I will suggest the lesser known RocknRolla. Can't go wrong with Guy Ritchie.
I would like a crime movie, preferably with dark humor involved as well. British films like In Bruges or RocknRolla are my favorites.
I don't suffer from insanity, I enjoy every moment of it.
Sane people are boring. Or else I've been around insane people so long that I can't tell the difference anymore. Either way, chase away those silly notions of linear thought: they have never done anyone good.
VanCleef wants you! Join the Defias Brotherhood and hang out on a yacht all day!
The Blues Brothers / Austin Powers / Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back
So many too chose.
What i am looking is some movie based on a
Stop animation.
Wildstar aurin esper.
/cast Shock Wave
/cast Spectral Horror

Chief Deputy Klint Anderson says the death of Ieve Dominguez took authorities by surprise. Anderson says Dominguez was behind bars on misdemeanors and hadn't shown signs of depression as late as last week.
Officials say Dominguez appeared fine when an officer checked on him about 11:30 p.m. Saturday. They say he was found hanging from a bed sheet in his single-person cell about an hour later.
The apparent suicide comes less than a month after 43-year-old Jeffery Dean White was found dead in his cell Nov. 14. He'd been charged with murder in the death of his girlfriend, Marnie Stark.

Customizing SMF > Graphics and Templates
Any Themes with Permitted copyright Removal License?
I have looked a a few smf theme sites and they all say that copyright removal is not permitted on the paid themes.
Does anyone have any themes were you can purchase a license to remove the copyright from the footer?
Maybe this isn't standard with SMF themes, but with other themes (say WP for example) there are some sites which allow the removal for a fee, I used one where I paid $15 to allow me to do this.
So if anyone knows of any themes where this is allowed would be greatful.
You should contact Theme author to of the theme which you like regarding same.
You could look for themes under a fully open license. For instance all of my themes are under the MIT/X11 license. Which basically states you can do what you want.
There are some other themes under the BSD3 and GPL aswell.
Arantor Beeblebrox the First:
I'm curious, why remove the copyright?
You'll have to leave SMF's copyright in there as well if you want to continue receiving support.
Well the reason is I am a web designer, so some people will of expected me to have designed it, and if there is no name in the footer (i understand I can't take credit) they will likely assume I have, but I'm not a theme designer, sure I could if I had the time to give it a shot but at present I don't.

When the heat is on, which oil should you use?
Which type of oil should I use for cooking with high heat?
from Jennifer K. Nelson, R.D., L.D.
The healthiest oils are those that are high in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, such as vegetable oil and olive oil. These types of fats can help lower your risk of heart disease when used instead of saturated and trans fats.
When it comes to cooking, however, not all oils are created equal. Some oils can handle the heat, and some can't.
An oil's smoke point is the temperature at which it will start to smoke and break down. When cooking oil starts to smoke, it can lose some of its nutritional value and can give food an unpleasant taste.
Oils with high smoke points, such as corn, soybean, peanut and sesame, are good for high-heat frying and stir-frying. Olive, canola and grapeseed oils have moderately high smoke points, making them good for sauteing over medium-high heat.
Oils with low smoke points, such as flaxseed and walnut, are best saved for use in salad dressings and dips.

Easy Active Directory integration with Likewise Open
Staying Active
Likewise Open provides smooth integration with Active Directory environments. We show you how to install and configure the admin-friendly authentication system.
The Likewise Open authentication system [1] integrates Linux clients with the Active Directory environment. Of course, you can also configure Active Directory through Samba and its supporting cast of characters [2], but the Likewise solution offers several benefits for easier configuration and administration.
The free, GPL'd version of Likewise supports authentication against Active Directories, the authorization of kerberized services, and even single sign-on. This might sound a lot like Samba, which does the same things; in fact, the project manager of Likewise, Gerald Carter, is a long-term member of the Samba core developer team. Likewise Open builds on the work by Samba, although it adds many of its own features.
Ready-to-Run Packages
Likewise packages are available for Red Hat, Novell, and Canonical distributions, a couple of commercial Unix systems, and Mac OS X.
The Likewise website features version 5.0, although the distribution-specific packages include version 4, which I will use for this article. Ubuntu users will find the likewise-open and likewise-open-gui packages in the Universe repository. The Likewise packages include a number of dependencies – mainly related to Kerberos. Likewise Open relies on the MIT version of Kerberos as a back end [3]. During installation on Ubuntu, the package prompts the admin to specify the Kerberos and administrative servers (Figures 1 and 2).
Besides a working Active Directory (AD) server and a domain structure managed by Windows, Likewise has two main requirements: a working name server to resolve DNS names and a synchronized system clock. If the client and server clocks are more than five minutes out of sync, the Kerberos server will refuse to issue tickets, which is a security measure to prevent replay attacks.
New Configuration Approach
Adding a raw Linux system to an AD domain requires a fair amount of configuration work [2]. The Likewise Agent handles most of this work, adding itself to the Name Service Switch (NSS) and Pluggable Authentication Modules (PAM) on the local client.
Server-side, the agent passes on authentication requests to the Kerberos 5 server and the LDAP-based AD. To allow this to happen, the package installs a couple of libraries and configuration files. For example, /lib/libnss_lwidentity.so integrates Likewise with NSS, and /--etc/pam.d/-pam_lwidentity.so- does the same thing for PAM. The /etc/security/pam_lwidentity.conf configuration file sets up the module, and the interface to the remote domain controller is implemented by the Likewise Winbind server, likewise-winbindd. The server has its own configuration file, /etc/samba/lwiauthd.conf, which is similar to the smb.conf file from the Samba package.
Likewise Open integrates these components to support a transparent domain login for the users. The login process passes the username and password to PAM. The pam_lwidentity.so module communicates with the Likewise authentication service, which generates a secret key from the username and password. The Likewise daemon uses the secret key to request an initial Ticket Granting Ticket (TGT) from the Kerberos Authentication Server, which runs as part of the Key Distribution Center (KDC) on the AD Server.
On presenting the TGT, the Likewise authentication service receives service tickets for other network services, such as SSH. Users can thus log on to kerberized servers without entering their passwords a second time.
Set up the Likewise installation package on each Linux machine that will become a member of the AD domain (and will be managed by Likewise). If you use the installation packages from the website, Likewise Open will be installed by using a Bitrock Installer – an executable whose file name ends with installer. To run the program, you must become root and follow the instructions on the screen.
The installer displays information about the OSS licenses for the installed components before Likewise sets up its files. After this, the Installer points the administrator to domainjoin-cli, which is located in the /-usr/centeris/bin/ directory (thus contravening the FHS [4] conventions; the distribution packages and later versions of Likewise correct this error). The agent stores logging information in /var/log/lw-identity/ or – if you use the version from the Ubuntu repository – in /var/log/likewise-open.
Come On In
An AD domain requires both the user and the client systems to become members. The act of setting up a machine account in Microsoft's directory service is referred to in AD-speak as "Joining the domain."
A command-line tool, domainjoin-cli, lets the root user join the AD domain, creating a machine account in the directory in the process. The domainjoin-cli tool accepts the join option and the domain as arguments. The domain argument must be specified as a fully qualified DNS name.
On top of this, the command expects the name of a user authorized to create computer accounts in the AD environment. Listing 1 shows a computer called ubuntu joining the example.org domain. The Administrator account has the required privileges for this step.
Listing 1
Joining a Domain
01 # domainjoin-cli join example.org Administrator 02 Joining to AD Domain: example.org 03 With Computer DNS Name: ubuntu.example.org 04 05 firstname.lastname@example.com's password: 06 Enter firstname.lastname@example.com's password: 07 SUCCESS
The second option for joining a domain is the Likewise Open GUI (Figure 3), however, the GUI is not included with the likewise-open core package. To add the GUI, just install likewise-open-gui and launch it with root privileges by entering domainjoin-gui.

TALLAHASSEE -- Gov. Rick Scott on Wednesday proposed $2,500 across-the-board pay raises for all full-time public school teachers, a bold move that would help the pocketbooks of 168,000 educators but also shrink a small projected budget surplus and potentially pit one public employee group against others.
Scott trumpeted the pay raise plan in a visit to a middle school near Orlando, where he emphasized that the $480 million in raises is in addition to an as-yet unspecified boost in public school funding next year.
Teachers were quick to note that it was Scott who championed a 3 percent cut in teacher pay last year in the form of a pension contribution.
Scott will flesh out his budget recommendations next week.
"I can think of no better investment for our state than investing in those teachers who work on the front line of Florida's future every day by teaching our children," Scott said in prepared remarks.
Scott, who as a candidate in 2010 emphasized parental choice and expanded charter schools, has become a public education evangelist in recent months.
"I've traveled the state and I've talked to teachers," said Scott, who often speaks of his daughter's work as a teacher of special needs students. "They're working tirelessly to make sure our students have achievement. I'm very appreciative of what our teachers do."
Florida teachers on average earn about $46,000 a year, 46th among states, $10,000 less than the national average and less than their peers in Georgia, a state that has effectively recruited teachers to cross the state line for more pay.
Florida's team of economists estimates that the state will carry over $2.1 billion in unspent money into next year, but some of that money will have to pay for unmet needs such as the federal Affordable Care Act and a possible decline in property values, which help pay for day-to-day public school operations.
Medicaid case loads continue to swell, state universities will seek $300 million just to make up for a cut in the current budget, public school enrollment is on the rise, and school districts have asked for $100 million for increased security.
Mindful of those and other demands for state dollars, lawmakers reacted cautiously to Scott's pay raise plan with some noting that state workers have not had a raise in six years.
"I think teachers are some government workers who deserve to have better compensation," said Senate President Don Gaetz, R-Niceville. "But I know corrections officers. I know highway patrolmen . .. and six years is a long time to wait."
Gaetz said other Scott priorities could get less money "to fund this most recent priority."
"There's very little new money," Gaetz said.
Scott may face resistance from Republicans who fervently believe that pay raises should be directly tied to performance, not dished out automatically.
"We applaud the governor's efforts to increase money in education funding," said House Speaker Will Weatherford, R-Wesley Chapel. "The method of the increase is just as important. . . . Part of it should be [based on] performance."
The first bill Scott signed as governor, SB 736, eliminated teacher tenure and added a merit pay plan tied to student achievement on standardized tests. Scott says he remains a merit pay supporter, but two years later, the state has put no money in the program and teachers are fighting it in court.

Seth Klarman's Baupost Group recently released their latest shareholder's letter. It's a long one at 31 pages, but it's full of introspective analysis on why Klarman thinks he and Baupost Group have been successful. The reasons include maintaining a long-term perspective, maintaining a sufficient margin of safety, and analyzing investor psychology. Nothing groundbreaking, but it's always useful to peer in the mind of a great investor.
To my surprise, Klarman spends a significant portion of the letter discussing the work of Nobel Prize winning psychologist Daniel Kahneman and the various mental models and cognitive biases that have been developed from Kahneman's resarch:
Understanding how our brains work–our limitations, endless mental shortcuts, and deeply ingrained biases–is one of the keys to successful investing. A Baupost, we believe that it is sometimes easier to predict how investors will behave in certain situations than it is to predict a company's bottom line. At times of market extremes, by avoiding emotional overreaction and remaining aware of our biases, it may be possible to know market participants better than they can know themselves.
How can we improve our thinking? Kahneman, notes that the voice of reason (System Two) may be much fainter than the loud and clear voice of an erroneous intuition (System One). Questioning your assumptions is unpleasant when you face the stress of a big decision; more doubt is the last thing you want when you are in trouble. We would all like to have a warning bell that rings when we are about to make a serious error, but no such bell is available. It turns out that it is much easier to identify a minefield when you observe others wandering into it than when you are about to do so yourself. Observers are less cognitively busy and more open to information than actors.
Investing lies at the intersection of economics and psychology, the place where net present value meets greed and fear. It is important to know the numbers—but that is not sufficient. And it is important to know how people think-but that, too, is not enough. Both matter; it is, of course, good to buy investment bargains, but it is far better if you know why they are bargain-priced. Kahneman helps us understand some of the reasons why markets can be inefficient and thus why bargains exist.
Other things that casual observers may not know is that Baupost Group regularly maintains a large percentage of its portfolio in cash (on average, around 33 percent of NAV and sometimes up to 50 percent!) and may take up to a year in deciding whether an investment is worthwhile.

Hello everyone
This is my first time doing a log. Last time I did this was for an EAS Body for Life contest.
I am 38 yrs old, married, mother of 2. I try to exercise 3-4 days a week, combination of treadmill and free weights and machines.
I generally walk on the treadmill in the morning on an empty stomach and sometimes do weight training right after or later in the day.
I try to eat 4-5 smaller meals, lots of fruit, leafy vegetables, meat and some heavy carbs (breads, etc)
Monday Morning:
Upon waking up I took 2 Shred Hers and maybe half an hour later I walked for approximately 30 minutes 3 ½ mph.. To be honest I didnt really feel much. I am Colombian and have a high tolerance to caffeine. As my husband says I can drink a full pot of coffee right before bed and fall asleep 20 minutes later. Didnt have a chance to work out.
Tuesday Morning:
I took 2 Shred Hers and didnt realize, but also had a 12 oz cup of black coffee. This seemed to do the trick. I walked for 30 minutes and was sweating a lot.
At 4:00 I went to the gym and my Husband suggested I mix a scoop of Hers Aminos. Unfortunately I had a tough time drinking it as tasted a lot like Miralax.I did add some kool aid. I am going to have to Dr this up, maybe add some crystal light next time.Aside from the taste, I didnt feel as sluggish during my workout.
I trained shoulders 4 sets each of side dumb bell raise, front raises, upright rows and shrugs.
I did the same as Tuesday, 2 shred and a large cup of black coffee again sweated a lot on the treadmill, 30 minutes.
Tonight I did a chest workout with my husband, no products though.
4 sets of bar bench press, flat, 4 sets of inclined and 4 sets of dumb bell flyes.
Thank you.

Join Me in Deb's Kitchen!
Monday, December 31st, 2012 12:50 pmDear GGGs, Happy New Year! I hope you ring in the New Year in style, and have all your goals achieved and wishes fulfilled in 2013! You might know that instead of resolutions, I like to pick one word themes for the New Year, one of my words for 2013 is share. What can I share with the world that is authentic to who I am? How can I serve? And it is in just this spirit that I share with you my latest project, a web cooking show called Deb's Kitchen. Here's the trailer, featuring my hubby Kevin, baby Elle, and toddler Jacob.
When I speak at colleges and companies, women often ask me about what I eat, how I stay fit and healthy despite my busy schedule (and especially since having two babies in three years!). So, I thought I'd share what I actually eat and my cooking tips in a web show. You all know I'm no chef, but these are fast, healthy meals with a gourmet twist—things I actually cook (or, um, prepare) on busy weeknights. We shot 6, five minute episodes in my actual kitchen (with the babies in the background!). It was an incredibly fun experience, and I hope it's just the beginning of much more to come. Episode 1 launches January 10th. I'd be so grateful if you'd help spread the word!
You can keep up with the show on its Facebook page, where I'll be sharing behind the scenes pics and stories, giveaways and more. I can't wait to hear what you think. If you have any feedback, ideas or suggestions for recipes I should feature, ways to promote/market the show, etc., I'm all ears.
Cheers to an AMAZING 2013, and as always, thank you SO much for your support . . . and keep working it!

Marcum LLP is one of the largest independent public accounting and advisory services firms in the nation.
International Capabilities
Community Involvement
Marcum Group
Marcum's Transaction Advisory Group works with private equity firms, hedge funds and corporate acquirers to identify and maximize value when investing in or divesting of a business interest. While financing for new transactions in the current market remains challenging, the Group's comprehensive understanding of underlying financial and tax issues coupled with the ability to identify opportunities for operational improvement provides a competitive advantage for clients seeking to maximize investments.
Marcum's Transaction Advisory Group members have extensive experience in corporate formations, acquisitions, dispositions and reorganizations. Collectively, the Group offers more than 100 years of experience related to these types of services. Its members pursue varying continuing education courses to stay current on the tax issues affecting their clients, including attending both national and local tax seminars.
With client service being one of Marcum's main goals, professionals in the group work directly with the Firm's Commercial Assurance Department in an effort to provide seamless client service. These two Groups, along with other tax advisory groups, regularly work together to identify and address various structuring issues from both an audit and tax perspective, including for example, how transactions may be reported differently for audit and tax purposes, i.e. a tax-free reorganization/acquisition, and the resulting effects on the client's financial statement disclosure.
Among the services available through Marcum's Transaction Advisory Group are:

Why are there no ++
and --
operators in Python?
It's not because it doesn't make sense; it makes perfect sense to define "x++" as "x += 1, evaluating to the previous binding of x". If you want to know the original reason, you'll have to either wade through old Python mailing lists or ask somebody who was there (eg. Guido), but it's easy enough to justify after the fact: Simple increment and decrement aren't needed as much as in other languages. You don't write things like Since it's not needed nearly as often, there's much less reason to give it its own special syntax; when you do need to increment, It's not a decision of whether it makes sense, or whether it can be done--it does, and it can. It's a question of whether the benefit is worth adding to the core syntax of the language. Remember, this is four operators--postinc, postdec, preinc, predec, and each of these would need to have its own class overloads; they all need to be specified, and tested; it would add opcodes to the language (implying a larger, and therefore slower, VM engine); every class that supports a logical increment would need to implement them (on top of This is all redundant with | |||||||||||||||||||||
This original answer I wrote is a myth from the folklore of computing: debunked by Dennis Ritchie as "historically impossible" as noted in the letters to the editors of Communications of the ACM July 2012 doi:10.1145/2209249.2209251 The C increment/decrement operators were invented at a time when the C compiler wasn't very smart and the authors wanted to be able to specify the direct intent that a machine language operator should be used which saved a handful of cycles for a compiler which might do a
instead of
and the PDP-11 even supported "autoincrement" and "autoincrement deferred" instructions corresponding to As compilers are smart enough to handle the high-level optimization tricks built into the syntax of C, they are just a syntactic convenience now. Python doesn't have tricks to convey intentions to the assembler because it doesn't use one. | |||||
I always assumed it had to do with this line of the zen of python: x++ and x+=1 do the exact same thing, so there is no reason to have both. | |||||||||||||||||||||
Of course, we could say "Guido just decided that way", but I think the question is really about the reasons for that decision. I think there are several reasons:
| |||||||||
It was just designed that way. Increment and decrement operators are just shortcuts for | |||
I'm very new to python but I suspect the reason is because of the emphasis between mutable and immutable objects within the language. Now, I know that x++ can easily be interpreted as x = x + 1, but it LOOKS like you're incrementing in-place an object which could be immutable. Just my guess/feeling/hunch. | |||||
Because, in Python, integers are immutable (int's += actually returns a different object). Also, with ++/-- you need to worry about pre- versus post- increment/decrement, and it takes only one more keystroke to write | |||
I believe it stems from the Python creed that "explicit is better than implicit". | |||
Maybe a better question would be to ask why do these operators exist in C. K&R calls increment and decrement operators 'unusual' (Section 2.8page 46). The Introduction calls them 'more concise and often more efficient'. I suspect that the fact that these operations always come up in pointer manipulation also has played a part in their introduction. In Python it has been probably decided that it made no sense to try to optimise increments (in fact I just did a test in C, and it seems that the gcc-generated assembly uses addl instead of incl in both cases) and there is no pointer arithmetic; so it would have been just One More Way to Do It and we know Python loathes that. | |||
as i understood it so you won't think the value in memory is changed. in c when you do x++ the value of x in memory changes. but in python all numbers are immutable hence the address that x pointed as still has x not x+1. when you write x++ you would think that x change what really happens is that x refrence is changed to a location in memory where x+1 is stored or recreate this location if doe's not exists. | |||
First, Python is only indirectly influenced by C; it is heavily influenced by tcl, which apparently does not have these operators, so it should not be any great surprise not to find them in Python either. Secondly, as others have said, increment and decrement are supported by Third, full support for a For example, while the C statement | |||

In Brief
- Our perception of time varies. In the here and now, busy phases seem short, monotonous ones long. In our memories, the opposite is true.
- Two events may look simultaneous but sound sequential because our sense of hearing is much better than our vision is at resolving tightly spaced events.
- The brain contains a variety of internal clocks and rhythm detectors that might influence the experience of time.
In a classic scene in the science-fiction blockbuster The Matrix, life starts to run in slow motion. Guns are fired at the main character Neo, but the bullets fly as if through molasses—and our hero's quickened reflexes allow him to jump out of harm's way. Many of us have experienced a similar deceleration of events during accidents or other life-and-death situations. You see the tree branch on the road, hit the brakes, and it seems like an eternity before you know if you avoided the collision or were too late.
Of course, we know that physical time does not objectively slow down just because we are subjectively stressed out. But can we really think and act more quickly in a fear-provoking situation? Recently neuropsychologist David M. Eagleman of the Baylor College of Medicine decided to find out by asking psychology graduate students to jump 150 feet from a high metal scaffolding into the center of a safety net.

LAND O' LAKES, FL (WFTS/CNN) - During an air show in Florida Saturday, a wingwalker performing on a bi-plane died when his parachute didn't open after he fell from the wing.
A witness said the wingwalker fell after the plane made a maneuver at around 1,000 feet in the air.
Witnesses say the plane was carrying two wingwalkers during the show; the pilot and the second wingwalker landed safely.
FAA says it's investigating why the wingwalker's parachute failed.
The National Transportation Safety board has been notified of the accident also.

Minimizing Senior Depression and Optimizing Health This Holiday Season
Much like their younger counterparts, seniors must adhere to basic principles such as a smart diet and physical exercise in order to stay in the best shape possible. While seniors are more susceptible to injuries and diseases, activity can keep seniors at their best. But this can be easier said than done if a senior is dealing with seasonal depression or the "winter blues." (more…)

Stimulus? We don't need no stinkin' stimulus.
Whether the stimulus package didn't work, or worked, is still working, worked but then quit working, was too little, too big, needs a second phase, or was juuuust right, is again becoming a matter of discussion among the ruling class. No, I must amend that. They are sure that at some level it worked. For them the only question is how much to expand it | Read More »

By Ryan Vlastelica
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Weakening business activity worldwide is hitting U.S. companies where it hurts, with more of them signaling disappointing results than at any time over the past decade.
Many bellwether companies, including two Dow components, have come out in recent days with profit warnings, and the slowing in Europe has been cited as a major factor for those outlooks.
For every company that has raised its second-quarter profit outlook, 3.6 have warned, the worst ratio since the third quarter of 2001, according to Thomson Reuters data.
Firms including PepsiCo Inc
On Wednesday, Procter & Gamble Co
"It would be wise to be underweight multinationals with inordinately large exposure to Europe," said Steven Neimeth, a money manager at SunAmerica Asset Management in Jersey City, New Jersey.
"Stocks are reactively more negatively to these outlooks because investors are fearing the worst this coming year," said Neimeth, who helps oversee $9 billion.
While cautious outlooks can make it easier for companies to top consensus estimates, corporate commentary has done little to reassure investors.
Also on Wednesday, Bed Bath & Beyond Inc
Last week, United Technologies Corp
According to a recent survey by the Business Roundtable, U.S. chief executives' view of the economy dimmed in the second quarter, with fewer expecting to increase sales or add workers than three months earlier.
Analysts expect earnings for the Standard & Poor's 500 <.SPX> to show a 6.3 percent rise in the second quarter, down from the 9.2 percent increase forecast on April 1, according to Thomson Reuters data.
When profit powerhouse Apple Inc
Much of this quarter's growth comes from the financial sector because of Bank of America Corp
Financial-sector earnings are seen up 13.6 percent in the quarter. Excluding that group, analysts expect total S&P profits to be down by 0.5 percent.
"There's not much second-quarter growth expected at all because of the general economic slowdown and fears about Europe," said Greg Harrison, corporate earnings research analyst with Thomson Reuters in New York. "Companies are taking a more cautious outlook now than they were even during the financial crisis."
U.S. stocks had their worst day in three weeks on Thursday on mounting evidence that slowing manufacturing growth worldwide threatened corporate profits.
Semiconductor stocks weighed on the Nasdaq after chipmaker Micron Technology Inc
And after the market closed, Moody's Investors Service cut the credit ratings of 15 of the world's biggest banks in an expected move that was part of a broad review of major financial institutions.
"All of the banks affected by today's actions have significant exposure to the volatility and risk of outsized losses inherent to capital markets activities," Moody's Global Banking Managing Director Greg Bauer said in a statement.
Also on Thursday, trucking and logistics company Ryder Systems Inc
Questions continue to swirl about Greece's prospects and slowing expansion in China, adding to concerns about bond yields in Spain.

Random Basketball Thoughts
I just felt compelled to touch on a few topics real quick…
A couple of weeks ago it was reported that Allen Iverson could be headed to China to play ball. Is AI's ego really so out of control that he would rather play in China than be a backup in the NBA? If so, then all I can say is "Wow"… have fun in China sucka.
Greg Oden's knee is still in shambles. I am gonna say that by roughly November 2012 we will all be on the same page about Oden being a bust.
I like the Golden State Warriors so I am delighted that Don Nelson has finally been relieved of his coaching duties. He seemed to be on a mission to ruin as many careers as possible while in Golden State. He ran off Baron Davis, feuded with Monta Ellis, inexplicably toyed with everyone's minutes, possibly ruined Anthony Randolph (I think he'll show and prove in NY tho, if the Knicks don't trade him to Denver for Melo first), and basically started D-League teams half the time for no apparent reason other than he is a crazy old man.
LeBron is still an ass. Sorry, no link. I think the evidence is everywhere.
The NBA is making Technical Fouls even more stupid than ever. In an effort to eliminate any passion or emotional connection to the game at hand, refs will now be able to call techs on players for punching the air in frustration. I can only assume that glaring at a ref will now draw an automatic 20 game suspension. Atta boy, David Stern.
Ever wonder why Avery wasn't missed in Dallas?
There was a rumor floating around in cyberspace this week about the Knicks possibly trading Wilson Chandler to the Spurs for their first round pick in 2011. Apparently the Knicks want to use the pick in a Melo trade. I'm down with both of those moves. There may be some truth to it.

Training to me means a self discipline to oneself, to me race day is not as important as training FOR race day. The journey starts when you sign-up for a race, then that's where you start planning out your days to yourself stating when you gonna do this and do that.

Department of Telecommunications (DoT) has been ordered by telecom tribunal TDSAT to return the Performance Bank Guarantees submitted by Etisalat DB at the time of allocation of spectrum for 11 circles. DoT has been directed to do so within a week.
The circles in question are Gujarat, Karnataka, Punjab, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh (East), Uttar Pradesh (West), Maharashtra, Haryana and Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh and Kerala.
Earlier, the tribunal on May 15 had reduced Etisalat's performance bank guarantee by 50 per cent submitted before DoT in its interim order. Etisalat had submitted performance bank guarantees of Rs 160 crore at the time of allocation of licences and airwaves.
The TDSAT Bench, headed by its Chairman, Justice S.B. Sinha said, "The Respondent (DoT) is hereby directed to return the performance bank guarantees in respect of the circles in question within one week from date. This petition is allowed to the aforementioned extent."
The argument of Etisalat was that its bank guarantees should be refunded, as it had completed the rollout obligations and as per the licence conditions.
TDSAT also rejected the submission of the DoT that licences of Etisalat have been quashed by the Supreme Court of India and it should not pass any order at this stage.
"The said submission is stated to be rejected," said TDSAT, adding that TRAI as well as DoT say, on the one hand, that the licences having been kept valid till September 7, 2012, and thus the rules are binding on the licensee. On the other hand, the DoT contends that it need not comply with its obligations.
"It, therefore, does not lie in the mouth of the licensor that although the licences are valid, it need not perform its part of contractual obligations," said TDSAT.
Etisalat which acquired telecom services licence to operate in 15 circles through its predecessor Swan, DB is a joint venture between Etisalat of United Arab Emirates and Dynamix Balwas Group of India.
But following the cancellation of its spectrum licences by the Supreme Court on February 2 this year said it has written off $827 million value of its Indian operations, by way of impairment charge and closed its operations in India.

A million more signatures for GMO food labeling
resize text | Tweet |
The people who think that all "genetically engineered" foods should be labeled as such are still organizing for the November California vote on Proposition 37. Just because groups gathered a million signatures to get the proposition on the ballot doesn't mean they are taking a rest.
The "Yes on 37 Right to Know Campaign" organizers have pledged to gather signatures from another million Californians to publicize support for voting Proposition 37 into law. The collection of signatures is the tool for keeping attention on the proposition with the public and news media.
The Yes on 37 organizers will not be dissuaded by any amount of facts, science, economics or other counterpoints being expressed by average farmers, ag industry officials or government regulators. Obviously, it has been easy pickings for campaigners to convince the average citizen to agree with having the right to know every detail about the food they are eating.
"The campaign has tapped into a deep grassroots passion for knowing what's in our food and created a statewide network of thousands of volunteers who helped the measure quickly qualify for the November ballot. The initiative, which calls for simple labels on foods that have been genetically engineered, collected almost a million signatures in just 10 weeks (original campaign to gain a ballot position)," a news release from the Yes on 37 group claimed.
"No other election campaign we know of has mobilized so many voters so quickly with such a huge network of volunteers," said Stacy Malkan, a spokeswoman for Yes on 37. "This is a powerful people's movement. Californians are demanding the right to know what they are eating and feeding their children."
Yes on 37 has initiated its One Million More signature drive using door to door solicitation and stationing supporters outside grocery stores and farmers markets across the state. The campaign to require labeling every food that might have GMO content is also being spread high and wide with online sites and various social media. More than 300 bloggers have signed on to promote Yes on 37, according to organizers.
An additional claim is that more than 800 organizations of people in all walks of life have endorsed voting Yes on 37.
"We will make history when we reach this ambitious goal of One Million More supporters. But we are making history already by standing up to some of America's most powerful corporations to demand the right to know what's in our food," Malkan said.
