Young People Shut Out of Home Ownership
NEW YORK (MainStreet) -- There is some good news on the home-buying front, but there's one key consumer demographic that seems to be missing in action: young people.
According to Realtor.org, home sales are on the mend, up 7.7% from July to August. Better yet, new home sales were up 18% on a year-to-year basis, the organization reports.
"Some of the improvement in August may result from sales that were delayed in preceding months, but favorable affordability conditions and rising rents are underlying motivations," says Lawrence Yun, NAR's chief economist. "Investors were more active in absorbing foreclosed properties. In addition to bargain hunting, some investors are in the market to hedge against higher inflation."

But not everyone is able to get in on the fun. A new University of Iowa study shows that younger Americans are increasingly walled off from homeownership.
The study says that 20- and even 30- and 40-somethings have suffered disproportionately in the economic downturn, and can't get the financing or are too worried about money to gather up the financial resources needed to buy a new home.
The data was compiled by University of Iowa economics professor Martin Gervais at the Tippie College of Business. He says that homeownership among the nation's younger consumers was already in decline since 1980 (Gervais defines "younger" consumers as the 25-44 age group).
Only 57% of that demographic owned their own home in 2007, and that's down from 61% in 1980. Gervais estimates that number is "even lower today".

New Labor Policy to Undergo Test in 6 MonthsNow that the National Assembly elections are over, South Koreans can start considering what this year's business will bring in addition to the introduction of a more business-friendly government. We can look forward to better times ahead ― at least so we hope. But there are some troubling, legacy issues that must be faced. For example, while the central Bank of Korea is forecasting that the Korean economy will likely expand 4.7 percent this year, in real terms, it seems to be running in place. The reason for this appears to be that there is a similar-sized deficit of unreported/unrecognized operational costs that nonetheless sap overall national economic well-being. Consequently, the average Korean does not sense the nation is moving forward ― and that can lead to labor demands. Also, we are living with the results from some of the major labor events of last year. The most critical labor issues in 2007 included the National Assembly's enactment of new regulations, particularly those intended to protect non-regular workers. As a result of Korea's ``for cause'' employment doctrine (in contrast to the ``at will'' employment model practiced in the United States and elsewhere), employers in Korea are required to meet a number of stringent requirements ― including demonstration of an ``urgent business necessity'' ― in order to lay off workers, even when the economy and the company's profits and income are down. Many employers have been forced to outsource many of their jobs so that their worker numbers could reflect the ups and downs of business cycles. As a result, a problem surfaced, caused by two classes of workers often working side-by-side, earning significantly disparate wages and benefits. To address this matter, National Assembly reformers passed the Non-Regular Workers Action (NWA) that went into effect July 1, 2007. This law prohibited employers from keeping irregular employees on ``temporary'' status for more than two years, even if they were being pay rolled by a third party company. That is, upon completion of two years service, employers were required to convert irregular employees to regular employees. As well intended as that legislation may have been, any competent business manager could have anticipated the result. The new law created an artificial churning of employees as employers laid off irregular employees as they approached their 24th month. Soon after the law went into effect, corporations that have significant business seasonality, such as E.Land and Koscom, started laying off several temporary workers through outsourcing. Unsurprisingly, recently laid off, long-term irregular employees have staged dramatic demonstrations. Even today, demonstrations at these two companies remain active and occasionally earn mass media attention. But returning to last year, we witnessed changes in the general public and even union attitudes as the overall nation sensed that change was necessary. For example, to the surprise of some Koreans, the Korean Federation of Trade Unions (KFTU) came out and officially endorsed Lee Myung-bak for president. The more aggressive Korean Confederation of Trade Unions (KCTU) refused Lee's condition that they investigate illegal striker activities, including violent KCTU-led strikes against the Korea-U.S. free trade agreement (FTA). Ultimately, the KCTU declared them to be hostile to the presidential candidate ― and remain so to this day. Also in 2007, the general public became more concerned and aware of industrial safety when Kookmin Tire was highlighted in last year's press for having 13 people die in its Daejeon plant over a two-year period. Local papers published that the company had been previously caught for violating Industrial Safety and Health Laws 1,394 times and trying to cover up 183 industrial accidents. Even more sensational, last June 11 illegal workers died in the Yeosu Foreign Workers' Protection [sic: detention] Center. The tragedy illustrated the nation's dependency ― and often exploitation ― of illegal workers, not to mention the general lack of fire safety. So, with all of the above as a foundation for 2008, what may we look forward to? First, let's consider President Lee Administration's Labor Policy. It stresses the rule of law and order, the creation of 3 million jobs, and deregulation of the economy ― including creating greater labor flexibility, ideally through better and more cooperative labor relations. Second, the new national administration realizes greater labor flexibility needs to accommodate the needs of non-regular workers. At the same time, the new government has stated that they wish to remove employment obstacles for women and the elderly who wish to continue to work. Given these policies, the new government and the labor market face the following challenges. After ten years of government leniency towards union violations of labor and civil laws, the unions may test the government's law & order orientation. Both the KCTU and even the more conciliatory KFTU have come out strongly against the KorUS and the KorEU FTA. Given such, we may anticipate ``test'' illegal street demonstrations in the coming months. Also, given the industry's abysmal safety records, we should expect expansion of industrial negotiation. In addition, the new government will need to make changes in labor laws and policies to better deal with irregular, subcontracted and specially engaged workers. Furthermore, with the KFTU working closer with the new administration, we may see increased friction between the KFTU and KCTU as both union groups compete for the decreasing number of unionized workers. Finally, given the advent of various FTAs and globalization's increasing influence on the Korean economy, employers may be seeing job security issues becoming more important in collective bargaining agreements ― as well as continued worker expectations of wage increases that outpace inflation and productivity rises. From a more optimistic perspective, however, employers can look forward to a national government that will be more consistent in applying the rule of law to public labor disputes with the public opinion turning against radical labor actions. Indeed, many employers are counting on the new government to enforce ``principle''-oriented labor policies. As such, many observers expect Korean workers will continue to have more passive attitudes toward centrally organized general strikes than what we have experienced during the past decade. At the same time, employers should note that the Ministry of Labor has augmented its staff of labor inspectors assigned to check on employment practices and policies regarding compliance issues, such as non-regular workers and other forms of employment discrimination violations. In addition, converting severance into employee retirement pensions ― either defined benefit or defined contribution ― will continue to be an important issue. So, once again, Korean labor relations appear to be at a tipping point. This time things overall look a bit more promising than previous years. We may even see labor relations evolving closer to the ideal of Kim Dae-jung of a joint partnership among government, labor and management. With more intelligently considered laws and policies together with a more consistent enforcement of laws and rules, this may indeed be the case. What is still unclear is how well or poorly will South Korea's new government be able to effectively govern between management and labor. The good news is the country's new chief executive has both corporate and public sector management experience. That is about as good of a start as we may hope from any new president anywhere. But whatever our hopes and expectations may be, we should get a good idea of the coming medium-term future as the new administration is tested in the coming six months.

Make Your Face Beam
Concealer, mascara, lip balm--those are the makeup essentials most women say they can't live without. But highlighter, whether mixed into foundation, smeared on post-blush, or dabbed onto the temples after a strong SPF, is rapidly making its case for a place on the must-have list. The creamy formulas instantly illuminate your face, without sparkle, for a grown-up glow.
Once you find your favorite (ours, including two dual-purpose eye shadows, are pictured above), the trick is to place the highlighter in exactly the right spots, or as M.A.C.'s lead makeup artist Francelle Daly says, "The high planes of the face where the sun naturally hits." Smear a U-shaped line around the outer eye, along the orbital bone, and spread it out onto your temples. Then use a pin-sized amount in three more places: down the bridge of your nose, above the center of your lips in the Cupid's Bow, and just below the middle of your lower lip, above your chin. Make sure it's thoroughly blended in-fingers work best-and the light will do the rest.

Brisbane did the job 22-12 on a night that went largely as predicted. The Eels showed glimpses, as they have done in a number of games this season, but didn't have the class needed to get over the line when the opportunity arose. For all of the talk about needing Ben Barba, Brisbane fullback Josh Hoffman was the hero, scoring a superb individual try and saving a few others.
The Broncos live to fight another day and edge closer to the finals, with a tough assignment on the road against Penrith next week. For Parramatta fans, it's the same old story.
Broncos 22 Parramatta 12
TRY to Reni Maitua. Steps and weaves and gets a consolation try for the Eels. Broncos lead 22-12.
Kahu bats it dead and the Eels win another set. What will they do with it? I have no idea but I'm guessing not a great deal. Just four minutes on the clock now and this game has been sapped of anything resembling intensity. Broncos lead 22-6.
There's a blockbuster in Gosford, which makes this the 'Are we there yet?" game of the evening. And there's a Falcon. Broncos lead 22-6. Eight fairly long minutes remaining.
It doesn't look too bad and he's up and about but he's not going back on right away. Looks like a contact injury rather than a ligament injury. It was a heavy collision with Hoffman in the end as they clipped each other sprinting in opposite directions.
Hayne has speed and bursts clear! But Hoffman, once again, gets his hand on the final pass and knocks it to the ground. Now Hayne down with a leg injury, knee perhaps. Parramatta fans, it turns out your season can get worse.
They'll have a look for a Jack Reed try here. But this will be a big, fat no. He puts it down on a stray boot and then seemed to lose it. The Eels with the 20m tap with Reed ruled to have lost it over the line. Score remains 22-6.
The Eels cut through but Hoffman gets a hand to the final pass and gets the intercept! Can't get away from the traffic though. The Brisbane fullback has been a bright spark on what must be said has been a fairly average night of NRL rugby league. Broncos lead 22-6.
Just settling into a middle thirds grind now, which is great for Brisbane since they lead by 16 points. It's not so great for the Eels, who have 22 minutes to change the 22-6 scoreline into the positive.
Prince hits it sweetly and it floats over from the sideline. Brisbane lead 22-6.
Sensational ball from Matt Gillett and the Broncos score the TRY through through Jack Reed. Gillett had plenty of work to do as he was wrapped up but instead of flinging it wildly, just composed himself and fired a rocket of a spiral pass out to his centre. Half chance turned into points for Brisbane, with a touch of class from Gillett the key ingredient. It's something the poor old Eels are missing at the moment. Broncos lead now out to 20-6.
Penalties left, right and centre now. Tim Mannah done for a strip. Not sure this will be game of the season.
Another attack, another lost ball for the Eels. The wrong option taken and it all falls apart. Brisbane making some errors themselves now and this game has taken a distinct turn for the worst. Broncos lead 16-6 with half an hour remaining.
Parramatta. What can you say? Good field position, building to something but nobody can even get a kick away on the final play and it is lost forward and turned over. You can only blame so much on the coach. A complete lack of confidence in that passage of play.
We're back baby. The Eels kick off to start the second half as they trail by 10. Good test here for the Eels to see if they can hold on here and either get back into the game or keep the score respectable.
HALFTIME Brisbane 16 Parramatta 6.
Brisbane done for a knock-on there and that's symptomatic of a tendency now for any ball that hits the deck to be judged as going forward. That really is a shocker of a decision. Ben Hunt went to catch the pass and the ball went between his legs. How that is a knock on, I have zero idea.
A rush of penalties now for Parramatta. But Hayne throws it right over the sideline as they fire down the left edge! Looked promising and to his credit, the winger really should have been looming on the end of that pass. Toutai was a mile back and would have probably scored if he was on top of that play. Broncos lead 16-6.
The Eels, to their credit, are having a real crack. Some brilliant interchange of inside balls almost had Hayne galloping away and Jack Reed needed to get the hand to that to save a try out on the left. Broncos grimly defending the 16-6 lead as the break beckons.
Average hour from the Eels there. They get a lucky call when a ball is clearly taken in the field of play but is ruled to have been caught in-goal. A decent set gets them within range of something - anything - but Luke Kelly's cross-kick just floats way, way past the tryline and Oates takes it with time to spare. You can see why Ricky Stuart is always on the verge of an anxiety attack. Broncos lead 16-6 with five minutes left in the half.
Prince gets it. Broncos 16 Parramatta 6.
SENSATIONAL solo TRY from Josh Hoffman. Who needs Ben Barba? Or Corey Norman, for that matter. Slices through the Eels line, beats no less than four players and scores a brilliant try to give Brisbane a 14-6 lead with 10 minutes left in the half.
Prince's kick is waved away so the Broncos can't extend the 10-4 lead with 13 minutes left in the half.
Nice hands from Brisbane. The passing exchange is far too slick for the Eels and Corey Oates finds clear air in the corner to dive over. Brisbane lead 10-6.
Good kick from McCullough and he pins the Eels back down their end. Parramatta can't afford any mistakes in their red zone because the evidence so far suggests they are going to struggle to repel Brisbane for long if they get repeats attacks. And Luke Kelly's boot is hoofed out on the full. It's 6-6.
And out of nothing, the Eels hit back with a TRY to Ryan Morgan. Hayne just floated across the park and nobody bothered to tackle him! Draws, passes to Morgan who works hard to get it down. Jake Mullaney slots it from the sideline to boot. Hayne is a gun, no doubt. It's 6-6 after 20 minutes.
Moimoi demolished by Hannant on that charge. The Eels really battling to make headway at the moment. Brisbane's pack isn't massive but with Hannant, Parker, Gillett and Thaiday it looks to be too much for Parramatta at this point.
Prince converts, Brisbane lead 6-0 after 12 minutes.
Too much pressure and Josh Maguire hits a lovely flat ball from McCullough and goes over under the posts for the TRY. Brisbane had another penalty before that as Thaiday lost it playing the ball and I think the Eels can feel a bit hard done by there. Broncos lead 4-0.
Huge hit from Ben Roberts denies Kahu the try. Sent him flying into touch and the Broncos can't make the most of that run of possession. No score after 10 minutes here at Suncorp Stadium. But an Eels mistake on halfway gives Brisbane a fresh set of six.
The Broncos tear them apart up the middle and Corey Parker rolls over but is held up. And now another push and shove and some strong words being exchanged! Penalty to Brisbane and they are looking likely.
Mistake here from Ben Hunt, who looks suspiciously like he's growing a finals beard. I like his optimism, even if he doesn't like that play. The Eels on the move now and looking fairly decent in these early exchanges. No score.
And awaaaaaaaay we go! Broncos kick off. The home side by plenty for mine but I'm wrong on a concerning number of occasions.
When you're ready, rugby league. And finally, some players appear. Only about half an hour from a start now.
Good evening folks and thanks for joining our live coverage of the undoubted game of the evening as the Broncos host the Eels. Nobody really cares about the table-topping battle between Souths and Manly so stay right here as the Broncos fight to keep their season alive and Parramatta just go around for another week. Set for a start.

Local representatives of a 13-member delegation of the Regional Coalition of LANL Communities who traveled to Washington, D.C. two weeks ago believe their efforts to secure more cleanup funding for Los Alamos National Laboratory are paying off.
State Rep. Stephanie Garcia Richard, councilor Steve Girrens, who serves as the county's alternate member on the coalition, and Deputy County Administrator Brian Bosshardt represented Los Alamos County on the trip.
"I really want to reiterate how great it was to have this bipartisan, diverse group go and speak in support of LANL," Garcia Richard said. "This group has really been trying to work on securing funding for the 3706 cleanup.

Area nonprofit organizations will receive more than $180,000 from Los Alamos National Security (LANS), LLC during a recognition event beginning at 9:30 a.m. June 12, at Fuller Lodge in downtown Los Alamos.
LANS contributions are determined by the number of volunteer hours logged by Los Alamos National Laboratory employees and retirees through a web-based organization called VolunteerMatch and through the Los Alamos Retired Seniors Volunteer Program (RSVP).
Deputy Laboratory Director Beth Sellers is scheduled to be the keynote speaker and present awards. Sellers also will recognize the top volunteers and nonprofit organizations.
"The genuine care and commitment laboratory employees and retirees have for their communities are clearly demonstrated by the number of hours volunteered to these nonprofit organizations," said Kurt Steinhaus, director of the Community Programs Office, which manages the laboratory's volunteer program.
Since the laboratory joined VolunteerMatch and RSVP in 2007, nearly 3,000 Los Alamos employees and retirees reported more than 1.2 million volunteer hours. In 2012, more than 269,000 hours of volunteer service were reported through the lab's Vecinos volunteer program. Vecinos is Spanish for neighbor. Additionally,
Los Alamos National Laboratory has made the first of its 18 shipments of transuranic (TRU) waste to the Advanced Mixed Waste Treatment Project at Idaho National Laboratory.
The first shipment left Los Alamos, Nov, 13, according to lab spokesman Fred DeSousa.
"Known as MTRU, or mixed transuranic waste, the material requires special handling because it consists mostly of large, metal equipment with sharp edges. By using equipment and technology available at the Idaho site, this waste can be remotely repackaged safely and efficiently with far fewer hazards for workers," Desousa said in a statement. He added, "Removing such waste from Los Alamos facilitates the lab's effort to meet our commitments with New Mexico. In addition, the three-site operation demonstrates DOE-EM's ability to meet the challenge of conducting high priority but technically complex environmental management operations."
In all 46 cubic meters will be shipped to Idaho and eventually back to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant in Carlsbad.
The shipments are part of the lab's campaign to remove 3,706 cubic meters of TRU-Waste by the end of June.
On Friday, DeSousa said, "We ended FY 13 having shipped 2,745 cubic meters vs. our goal of 2,600 toward the campaign goal of 3,706."
The Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) this week is conducting an Advanced International Radiological Assistance Program Training for Emergency Response (I-RAPTER) course in Las Vegas, Nev., for a group of 15 Iraqi first responders headed by the Iraqi Radioactive Source Regulatory Authority (IRSRA). The course focuses on border radiation monitoring, alarm interdiction and adjudication, characterization of detained or suspect cargo, and source recovery with extensive hands-on equipment operations using a wide range of radiation sources. "This course demonstrates NNSA's commitment in assisting Iraqi first responders to be prepared to handle hazardous material following a radiological incident or event," said NNSA Associate Administrator for Emergency Operations Joseph Krol. "We will continue to provide our technical expertise and assistance to Iraq and to countries around the world." The course, a follow on to a March 2013 I-RAPTER course taught in Amman, Jordan, for Iraq and Jordon, is being conducted by personnel from NNSA and taught by instructors from Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M., and NSTec's Remote Sensing Laboratory from Joint Base Andrews and Nellis Air Force Base.
Los Alamos National Laboratory recently announced two new associate directors: Mary Hockaday is the associate director of the Experimental Physical Sciences Directorate and Cheryl Cabbil joined the laboratory Monday as associate director for Nuclear and High Hazard Operations.
"Mary is a 30-year veteran of the lab and currently serves in a joint role as the deputy associate director for the Weapons Physics directorate as well as leading LANL's MaRIE signature facility effort," said laboratory director Charlie McMillan. "She is skilled and passionate in communicating with the scientific and customer communities on issues concerning laboratory capabilities and national security."
"Cheryl brings a distinguished track record for developing and implementing nuclear facility management programs, for improving nuclear and high hazard conduct of operations, nuclear safety bases, integrated safety management, R&D laboratory operations and nuclear quality assurance," McMillan said. "She has demonstrated leadership skill in working with regulators, including the Defense Nuclear Facilities Safety Board, stakeholders and staff to identify common ground and gain consensus."
A defense lawyer says a former Los Alamos National Laboratory nuclear physicist who admitted communicating classified nuclear weapons data may try to withdraw his guilty plea. Pedro Leonardo Mascheroni and his wife, Marjorie Roxby Mascheroni, were accused of offering to help develop a nuclear weapon for Venezuela through dealings with an undercover FBI agent posing as a representative of the Venezuelan government. The couple pleaded guilty in June in federal court in Albuquerque, but a Nov. 27 court filing by a federal public defender says Pedro Mascheroni may seek to withdraw his plea. The filing was made in connection with Mascheroni's pending request to obtain new court-appointed lawyers. The public defender, Richard Winterbottom, said it was a "future possibility" that Mascheroni would change his plea but did not elaborate. In the filing, Winterbottom asked a judge to keep confidential a 35-page letter that Mascheroni had written the judge to express dissatisfaction with his current lawyers and to ask for appointment of new ones. Release would disclose Mascheroni's defense strategy, Winterbottom wrote. Federal prosecutors have yet to respond to Mascheroni's request that they not be allowed to see his letter.
The Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration announced this week the award of a cooperative agreement that accelerates the dual objectives of eliminating the use of proliferation-sensitive highly enriched uranium (HEU) in the production of medical isotopes and establishing reliable domestic supplies of Molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) to meet U.S. patient needs. Mo-99 is used frequently in common medical diagnostic procedures. The cooperative agreement with NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes, LLC provides support toward NorthStar's Mo-99 production capability using neutron-capture technology, which it is pursuing in partnership with the University of Missouri Research Reactor. "This cooperative agreement demonstrates that the government and commercial industry can work together to reduce the risk of nuclear proliferation while providing stability to an important part of the medical radioisotope market," said NNSA Deputy Administrator for Defense Nuclear Nonproliferation Anne Harrington. "The development of commercial technologies to produce Mo-99 without the use of HEU will ensure that patients have access to the care they need while supporting global nuclear nonproliferation objectives."
Podcasts and webinars are among the new communications tools being rolled out by Los Alamos National Laboratory's Community Programs Office to reach a broader audience.
The first podcast discusses economic development and the Northern New Mexico 20/20 Campaign, a program spearheaded by the Regional Development Corporation of Española that recognizes high growth businesses in the region.
"We're thrilled to be able to better connect with more people in our community through the new podcasts, webinars and other social media venues we have planned," said Kurt Steinhaus, director of the laboratory's Community Programs Office.
Steinhaus interviewed Regional Development Corporation Executive Director Kathy Keith for the initial podcast. The podcast is available via iTunes and other online venues.
All of the podcasts will be archived at soundcloud.com/lanl-cpo/ and blogtalkradio.com/lanlcommunity.
The second podcast, currently in production, focuses on the work that United Way is doing in the community and features Craig Strong of United Way of Santa Fe County and Kristy Ortega of United Way of Northern New Mexico, as well as Los Alamos National Laboratory's 2014 Employee Giving Campaign, now under way.

Below are the key drivers of Baker Hughes' value that present opportunities for upside or downside to the current ${trefisprice}:
For additional details, select a driver above or select a division from the interactive Trefis split for Baker Hughes at the top of the page.
Baker Hughes provides upstream drilling and exploration services for oil and gas production activities required by firms such as Exxon Mobil and National Oil Companies (NOCs) like Saudi Aramco to explore, develop and service their oil resources. The company has an extensive geographical coverage, conducting business in over 80 countries and provides products and services for oil and gas exploration, drilling and post-drilling services.
We believe the North America division of Baker Hughes is more valuable than the other geographical divisions primarily because of
North America accounts for approximately 60% of the total rig count published by Baker Hughes. While the Revenue per Rig is quite low in this region, the size of the market in terms of the number of rigs exceeds the combined size of the other three geographic divisions of Latin America, Europe / CIS / Africa and the Middle East / Asia.
The strong push towards exploiting unconventional sources of hydrocarbons such as shale gas, tar sands and heavy oil in North America increases the potential for additional revenues to Baker Hughes as exploration for these sources requires complex technology and more intensive processes. The shift has also increased the service intensity of the rigs in North America that should result in higher Revenue per Rig in the region.
Over the past few years an increasing number of major oil and gas finds have been in deepwater and other remote locations such as the CIS and Iraq. The exploitation of these sources adds tremendous logistical and technical complexities to the exploration projects that translate into revenues for upstream products and services firms such as Baker Hughes.
The IEA estimates that non-OPEC oil production peaked in 2010. This means that future oil and gas finds will get increasingly rarer and the size of the discoveries will decline which will lead to higher exploration and drilling costs to maintain historical outputs of oil.
Natural gas prices continue to remain suppressed because of the perceived high storage levels and the oversupply of gas in the market. The lagging demand will translate into lower investments in natural gas exploration in the short term.
7 of the 10 largest oil and gas discoveries of 2008 occurred in Latin America including several multi-billion barrel offshore finds in Brazil. These discoveries are attracting investments from local oil companies such as Petrobas as well as foreign oil majors such as Chevron and Petrochina. Exploration in this region is expected to improve Baker Hughes' revenue and profit outlook in the region
Exploration for unconventional sources such as shale and tight gas are expected to pick up in Argentina, Mexico, Poland, China and Saudi Arabia over the next 1-5 years resulting in higher revenues and operating profits for Baker Hughes in these regions.
The recent downturn has resulted in the consolidation of the upstream products and services industry in North America as many smaller players failed to survive the competitive pricing by established players such as Baker Hughes. In addition to this, the shift towards unconventional activity and higher services intensity favors larger players which should result in better pricing for Baker Hughes.
Oil firms are investing in technology to help them reduce the decline rates seen in major fields over their lifetime. Pemex has been engaged in efforts to arrest the decline in its Canterall fields while Saudi Aramco has also made it a priority to reduce the decline in its fields at 2-3% per annum.

Dr. Taha Al-Naib has been at his game for a while as one of the few pediatricians in Yemen who specializes in the treatment of childhood kidney disorders. Patients from all over the country come to him for his expertise on ailments ranging from renal failure to kidney infections. Renal failure remains a serious cause of mortality in Yemen, according to many doctors in both public and private facilities. The capital's state-run Al-Thawra Hospital receives on average three to four new cases of child "chronic renal failure" every week and Al-Naib says he sees just as many in his private clinic.

This publication was supported by an educational grant from Amersham Health, Princeton, NJ. The opinions expressed in this publication are those of the authors and not necessarily those of Amersham Health.
Dr. Fishman is a Professor of Radiology and Oncology, and Director of Diagnostic Radiology and Body CT at Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions, Baltimore, MD.
Radiologists at leading institutions have been performing CT angiography (CTA) for more than a decade. Even in 1989, when single-slice CT was introduced, it was possible to produce reasonable-quality CT angiographic images of certain vessels, particularly the aorta. By the late 1990s, following the introduction of 4-slice scanners, most CTA applications had become both easier to do and more robust. Sixteen-slice technology, introduced in 2002, promises to make CTA a standard procedure in most radiology departments.
As shown in Table 1, CT has undergone an extraordinary evolution during the last 20 years. Today it is characterized by subsecond scan times, submillimeter scan thicknesses, and the acquisition of approximately 1000 slices per examination. Sixteen-slice scanners have been particularly important in advancing CTA, offering the ability not only to optimize contrast enhancement but also to acquire data in isotropic voxels. Having equal spatial resolution in the X, Y, and Z directions greatly improves three-dimensional (3D) reconstructions.
CTA is not a study that is used occasionally for unique or difficult cases. Instead, it has become part of standard practice. Indeed, growth in CTA has exceeded expectations, in large part as a result of technological innovation. In fiscal year 2000, we performed 1160 body CTA examinations at Johns Hopkins. In 2001, that number climbed to 2037 and in 2002, to 2818. Prior to acquiring a 16-slice scanner, we projected a CT volume of 3150 for fiscal year 2003. Instead, the final volume was 3800.
The clinical applications of CTA continue to increase in number and range. Today, CTA is performed in the chest, abdomen, kidney, liver, brain, and heart with increasing ease.
It is possible to examine the pulmonary vasculature (Figure 1), the aorta, and the mediastinum, among other thoracic structures. Routinely, CTA is used to examine the carotid arteries for stenosis (Figure 2), an application that markedly reduces patient risk and has substantially increased CT volume in many radiology practices.
CTA of the coronary arteries, while not yet routine, can be readily performed with the newest scanners. Whether in the examination of patients for stenosis or in the evaluation of graft patency, CTA of the coronary vasculature represents an application of great promise.
In approximately 90% of diagnostic studies, CTA can replace conventional angiography. The evaluation of pulmonary embolism is a perfect example of a clinical application in which CTA has become the diagnostic standard. Even more important, in the case of cancer, CTA can not only diagnose disease but can also provide accurate information on staging, all in a single examination (Figure 3).
In hepatic imaging, CTA can be used for vascular mapping and to look for such conditions as cavernous transformation of the portal vein or collateral vessels in the abdominal wall of a patient with cirrhosis (Figure 4). CTA is useful not only for detecting lesions, but also for looking at the pattern of contrast enhancement; such as in the case of hemangioma. Similarly, in the case of a metastatic neuroendocrine tumor, arterial-phase imaging can nicely reveal arteriovenous shunting.
CTA offers numerous opportunities to increase the capability of CT, not by improving the definition of pathology but, as shown in Figure 5, by detecting lesions that might otherwise be overlooked because they are infiltrative rather than mass-like. Detection of neovascularity in a patient with hepatoma is an example.
CTA is becoming the state of the art for examining a wide range of problems, including those in which CT has always played an important role. Preoperative evaluation of the mesenteric vessels in a patient with a recurrent small bowel tumor, or examination for ischemic bowel in a patient with abdominal pain represent classic applications of CT that are strengthened by advances in scanning technology.
With scan times of <10 seconds, and delays from scanning to visualization of only 1 to 2 minutes, advanced CT technology is markedly changing how we practice. As our experience increases, and as scanners continue to improve, many questions remain to be answered. The importance of good contrast enhancement is clear. However advanced image processing techniques may be, whether maximum-intensity projection or volume rendering, they rely on the quality of the initial data sets. With adequate vessel opacification and optimally timed image acquisition, the quality of the images we are able to create is truly impressive.

By Darrell Issa and Dave Camp Just three months ago, Lois G. Lerner, a senior official in the IRS's tax-exempt organizations division, publicly admitted that the agency targeted taxpayers because of their political beliefs. Until that point, despite years of inquiries from Congress, the IRS had continued to deny that it was targeting taxpayers,…
Issa and Cummings: Our bipartisan legislation will address the shortcomings of FISMA by incorporating recent technological innovations. It will also enhance and strengthen the current framework that protects federal information technology systems.
Issa: Raising Taxes Won't Avoid Fiscal Cliff. This isn't about fairness and unfairness. It's about taxing and spending, and the federal government has spent enough.
Americans deserve the full truth, writes Issa: "When the sworn testimony of State Department officials is undercut by an independent review like the ARB's, it damages the reputation and credibility of the State Department as a whole. Until the full truth about the security failures in Benghazi finally sees the light of day, questions will continue to be raised and the process of learning from this tragedy will be hindered by the petty secrets the State Department has deemed too sensitive to disclose."
Issa: "When you break it down, it's pretty simple. Next month, everyone's taxes will go up. Republicans in Congress are fighting for tax cuts that will benefit 100 percent of taxpayers and for a meaningful reduction in government spending that will address the true root causes of our fiscal instability. The only real question is whether or not Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi will allow us to go over the fiscal cliff because they didn't get 100 percent of what they wanted."
For years, foreign students have come to the United States seeking the benefits of the first-class, world-class higher-education systems we offer. They receive the STEM skills they need to revolutionize industries, transform economies and create an untold number of jobs.
Yet our broken visa system has exported those skills and jobs out of the United States allowing other nations to benefit from the education these students received here.
My job as Chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is to innovate government and hold it accountable to taxpayers. Reform is inherently disruptive, and often demands speaking unpleasant truths to the powerful in Washington. That's why, just before taking the stage at the PDF, I announced contempt charges against Attorney General Eric Holder for stonewalling the investigation of Operation Fast and Furious. A shocking contrast? To some in the crowd, probably. But since joining the fight to stop SOPA in Congress, I've had many head-spinning days like this.
The federal government currently spends $81 billion each year on information technology, yet its use and deployment of IT is full of duplication and failure. At a time when we are facing record deficits and our national debt has exceeded GDP, it has never been more important for government IT acquisition to maximize the American taxpayer's return on investment, reduce operational risk and provide value to citizens. Yet, because of the antiquated way the government defines its requirements and acquires IT, we are wasting billions of taxpayer dollars each year on failed programs.
The Internet is essential to life in the 21st century. The way we do business, communicate and live our lives now largely depends on being able to get online. Ensuring the freedom to access and use the Internet has become a bipartisan priority.
Last week marked the end of Gregory Jaczko's controversial reign as Chairman of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. This departure is woefully overdue. For far too long, his misconduct undermined the credibility of the NRC and distracted from the agency's important work.

Camilla Luddington chosen as voice of Lara Croft
Square Enix has today announced that the English-born actress Camilla Luddington has been chosen to be the voice and performance actress of Lara Croft in the new Tomb Raider game.
"After an international talent search using scouts in Europe and the US, Luddington stood out as delivering both a depth of emotion and the youthful tone needed for Lara Croft in the upcoming reimagining of the Tomb Raider franchise," says the PR.
"This has been one of the most important jobs for us to get right," said Darrell Gallagher, head of studio at Crystal Dynamics "'This Tomb Raider game is very different to any other and we are demanding far more from the voice and performance acting than ever before as we take the franchise in a new direction."
Luddington will participate in the Nerd HQ and Comic-Con panels in San Diego, where she will join the development team as they talk about Tomb Raider and the story behind its creation.
Recently Luddington has starred in hit Showtime series, Californication and can also be seen in the current season of HBO's True Blood.
So does that mean the one in the gameplay was just a stand in then? Because her voice really did annoy me!

DENVER (AP) -- New safeguards to prevent state-set fires from going out of control have won unanimous approval in the state Senate.
The Senate voted 34-0 without debate Thursday in favor of a set of new safety curbs on prescribed burns on state forest land. The safeguards include a new requirement that people attend the fire as long as it's burning, along with a requirement that nearby residents are alerted to planned burns.
The prescribed burn bill is a reaction to last March's deadly Lower North Fork Fire in the foothills west of Denver. That blaze killed three and was caused by a prescribed burn intended to keep the forest healthy.
The wildfire measure now heads to the House.

PM: 'World should not stand by'
2:32pm Wednesday 28th August 2013 in National News © Press Association 2013
The National Security Council has agreed unanimously that the world "should not stand by" after the "unacceptable" use of chemical weapons by the Syrian regime, David Cameron said.
The Prime Minister gathered the UK's armed forces and security chiefs with key cabinet ministers in Downing Street for emergency talks over possible military action.
Chief of the Defence Staff General Sir Nick Houghton and MI6 chief Sir John Sawers, Defence Secretary Philip Hammond and Attorney General Dominic Grieve were among those around the Cabinet table at 10 Downing Street to discuss the options.
"The NSC agreed unanimously that the use of chemical weapons by Assad was unacceptable - and the world should not stand by," the Prime Minister wrote on Twitter.

Climate Change Circle of Consequences
"Greenhouse effect" and "global warming" are becoming household phrases but how, exactly, are they linked? Explore the interconnections and consequences of climate change.
Earth's climate is naturally dynamic, but human activity is affecting it. Since the Industrial Revolution, we've gotten most of our energy from fossil fuels. Burning them releases gases, primarily carbon dioxide, that trap heat in the atmosphere. In the past 100 years, concentrations of this greenhouse gas have grown faster and higher than at any time in the past 850,000 years (and probably much longer), causing global average temperatures to rise. The evidence comes from abundant data collected by many sources over time. We can see it around us in the form of rising sea levels, melting polar ice caps and glaciers, changing ocean chemistry, and more severe heat waves, droughts, and storms.
Support for the development of Science Topics was generously provided by Sidney and Helaine Lerner, GRACE Communications Foundation.
"Greenhouse effect" and "global warming" are becoming household phrases but how, exactly, are they linked? Explore the interconnections and consequences of climate change.
Climate has changed throughout Earth's long history. But this time is different. Worldwide temperatures are rising higher and faster than anytime we know of in the past. And this time, human activities are causing it.
Climate change isn't always slow, small, and imperceptible in a human lifetime. One of the most important lessons from ice core analysis is that Earth's climate in some places can also change rapidly and dramatically, such as a 15-degree temperature change in a decade. This, you'd notice.
Potential consequences of climate change include loss of biodiversity, destruction of terrestrial ecosystems, spread of human infectious and respiratory diseases, changes in ocean chemistry that disrupt the marine food chain and destroy tropical coral reefs, extreme and unusual weather events, drought due to warming and changing weather patterns, and rising sea level.

Rainstorms help sustain life on Earth by bringing much needed water. But there's a big difference between a restorative shower and an intense downpour that causes floods and landslides. As our planet continues to warm, intense and destructive storms are likely to become more and more frequent over many land regions. In fact, they already have.

An interview with eminent climatologist James Hansen about the politicization of climate science, the challenge of educating the public, and his research priorities.
We think of climate as a system. The parts of this system are the atmosphere, the ocean, the biosphere, the cryosphere, and the solid Earth. All these parts interact both chemically and physically to produce a climate that is both complex and dynamic but also characterized by long periods of stability.
Research suggests global warming isn't increasing the number of hurricanes, but is likely to increase their average strength. This video features Chris Landsea, Science and Operations Officer at NOAA's National Hurricane Center in Miami, Florida.
