ACC: Brandon Davis
ACC position superlatives: Florida State
Strongest position: Offensive line
Key returnees: All five starters return in Andrew Datko, Rodney Hudson, Ryan McMahon, David Spurlock and Zebrie Sanders.
Key departures: Backup Brandon Davis has decided to graduate and move on instead of returning for his fifth season. He stared in place of Hudson the last two games of the regular season.
The skinny: This group will finally have seniors in McMahon and Hudson, and collectively there are 142 career starts between the five returning starters. Last year, all five of Florida State's offensive linemen were nominated by opposing ACC coaches for all-conference honors. Assistant Rick Trickett said he's never had that happen to one of his groups before. Sanders and Rhonne Sanderson are both injured. Sanders will be fine by summer camp and Sanderson is limited this spring after foot surgery.
Weakest position: Secondary
Key returnees: CB Ochuko Jenije
Key departures: CB Patrick Robinson, FS Jamie Robinson, RV Korey Mangum
The skinny: Aside from Jenije, the only returning starter, no one in the secondary has played more than one season. There are high expectations for cornerback Greg Reid, who will get a long look this spring to replace Patrick Robinson. Redshirt freshman Xavier Rhodes will also get a chance there. Terrance Parks and Nick Moody were both the backups at safety last year, and they'll get an opportunity to move up. Redshirt freshmen Justin Bright and Gerald Demps will also challenge at safety.
FSU walk-on shakes up depth chart
Posted by ESPN.com's Heather Dinich
Florida State recently released its depth chart for the Miami game, and it reflects seniority across the board with one true surprise: Craig Yarborough is listed as the starter at left end with freshman Toshmon Stevens as his backup.
So the Noles are going to count on a walk-on to replace Neefy Moffett?
Not quite.
Again with the seniority, it's possible that defensive ends coach Jody Allen is sending Kevin McNeil a message because his eligibility was in question at one point this summer, and McNeil might not be in the greatest shape right now because he missed a few practices. Yarborough usually helps out on special teams, but I don't expect him to be on the field too long against the Canes.
Andrew Carter at the Orlando Sentinel tells me FSU fans are all up in arms over this, and unless Yarborough is the next Everette Brown, they should be. This just in: Florida State opens with Miami. Not Western Carolina. It will be worth watching how long Yarborough stays in the game. Then again, maybe I'm not giving him enough credit. If that's the case, he should probably be on scholarship.
Offensively, the competition at right guard between David Spurlock and Brandon Davis should be ongoing and might change from week to week, but for now, Spurlock, the sophomore, has the nod over the junior.
At placekicker, that battle went down to the wire and was decided by Saturday morning's scrimmage in which freshman Dustin Hopkins went 4-for-4 and beat James Esco. Hopkins has the stronger leg, and his range has been compared to Graham Gano. I'm told Hopkins could be one of the Noles' best kickoff guys since Sebastian Janikowski.
Hope and concern: Florida State
Posted by ESPN.com's Heather Dinich
Biggest reason for hope: The offensive line
Despite starting three true freshmen last year, FSU had its best year running the football since 2000, and the Noles have the potential to be even better this year because of the players up front. The trio of Andrew Datko, Rodney Hudson and Ryan McMahon will make this line one of the best in the ACC, if not the best. If they continue to build off the momentum and what they learned last season, they can open things up for budding sophomore stars Ty Jones and Jermaine Thomas. Don't be surprised to see them running to the left side all day. The running game will be key, but if the linemen improve upon their 26 sacks allowed last year, they can give Christian Ponder and the new receivers the time they'll need to find a rhythm. With Will Furlong gone, the battle at right guard is between Brandon Davis and Blake Snider this summer. It's the group's lone question mark.
Biggest reason for concern: Off-field distractions
Those within the program insist the ongoing battle between Florida State and the NCAA isn't a distraction, but it's a drama that could play out into the start of the season. The future of the program is facing some uncertainty, as Bobby Bowden has yet to announce his retirement date, and a new university president has yet to be named. The off-field incidents will be felt when the offense takes the field for the first time and there are new faces at wide receiver. Several suspensions, and the departure of key players like Corey Surrency, who was denied an extra year of eligibility, and Preston Parker, who was kicked off the team, could have an effect early. The players -- the receivers in particular -- have been on their best behavior lately and know there's no more margin for error.

Radical drops on April 15 and is one of Sizzla's three albums during the first four months of 2014. It's a VP Records compilation of rare and previously unreleased material produced by the late Philip "Fattis" Burrell between the early 90s and 2000s.
This great producer worked with Sizzla during his formative years and helped to create some of the prolific singer's best work to date, including Praise Ye Jah, by some regarded as his breakthrough album.
Radical collects 16 tracks and has been compiled together with Philip Burrell's son Kareem Burrell and features live instrumentation from Jamaican studio aces like Sly Dunbar, Steven Stanley, Earl "Chinna" Smith and Dean Fraser.

- A first anniversary treat!Pwkicker97Dined on 11/14/2014We had a gift certificate from our wedding that we decided to save for a special occasion.. What better than our 1 year anniversary. They treated us quite well even adding a lil something extra for the occasion with rose petals on the table. We got a decent bottle of Malvec for about $40 not bad. We then had the scallops appetizer, we each had soup. I had the gumbo and my wife had lobster bisque. Both were good, bisque was nice and creamy and the gumbo had good flavor. Perhaps could've been spicier. For mains I had a cowboy ribeye and she had filets and shrimp. Both were great but of course the ribeye was best. We also had sides of asparagus with Hollandase and sweet potato casserole. It was like dessert during dinner. We were into it :). Then we had the chocolate sin cake with coffee for dessert. All in all, a great meal and a perfect way to celebrate.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- SamanthaMDined on 11/10/2014The quality of the food has never disappointed me. I met a business partner from there who was from out of town, so the atmosphere and service and food quality was important to me. I had the lobster bisque, loaded baked potato and bone-in filet. My business partner had the Maryland crabcake and salmon. Everything was delicious and cooked beautifully. Our server took great care of us. I look forward to my next visit.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Birthday Evening2GourmandsDined on 11/9/2014My husband and I chose to celebrate our dual birthdays with a family dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House. Our adult son said he had "forgotten how perfection tasted." The excellent meal was only surpassed by the perfect service. T.J., our server, was extremely knowledgeable about food and wine yet his attention to our table was subtle. Our dining ended with Bananas Foster flambeed table-side - a super way to end a super dining experience.Special Features:
- For Beef LoversBaltzhomeDined on 11/8/2014We come here for most of our special occasions. Everything from the valet to dessert is perfect. I say "special occasion" because it'll set you back quite a bit, especially if you opt for a bottle of wine or two. The filet can be cut with a fork if cooked the right way - MRare or less.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Outstanding Food & ServiceOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 11/8/2014We went for our anniversary and had a wonderful dinner. Our waiter, Zach, was extremely good. When we made the reservation we noted it was our anniversary. When we sat at our table Zach spread rose pedals on the table. Also, we were given a good customer discount that was very unexpected. We did not know about the discount until the bill came. We assumed it was for our anniversary.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great service, Great FoodShowbiz23VIPDined on 11/2/2014Ruth's Pier 5 is managed very well, consistently good food, prepared to your liking. Allows substitutes based on your diet needs. Service is very good.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Pan fried steakHerbDined on 10/30/2014Great oysters, great service. Crabcake average at best and overpriced. Cocktail sauce best I ever had. Pan fried steak terrible had the filet. No taste and low quality. Had better steak at cheap steakhousesSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Yummmmmmm2tootsDined on 10/19/2014We ended up sitting at the bar for dinner so we could watch the football game. Dining room looked elegant! I ordered the oysters for an appetizer and they were briny, cold & delicious. We took advantage of the 3 course menu-$49.99: Strawberry/blue cheese salad, chicken with to die for mashed potatoes & dessert. $59.99 Caesar salad, 11 oz Filet served with classic creamed spinach, dessert. Dessert was an adorable apple cheesecake & a couple of pieces of chocolate almond bark.. All portions were generous! My steak was delicious, but`I didn't know it was going to be served in clarified butter. My own personal taste is to have it unseasoned and just served without any added oil/butter (but that's just me) All in all-I would return!!Special Features:
- Server may have needed a hugOpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 10/17/2014Great experience over all. Our main server was a bit stern, gruff, & even intimidating to a few at our table.

- Pretty enjoyable experience overallDB25Dined on 10/4/2014Yes, the restaurant food is a tad pricey, but I found the bar to be reasonably priced (wine, etc.). However, I like the fact that food was largely simple and they were able to make modifications for food allergies pretty easily. Overall, I found the food to be delicious. The service was OK, I didn't find it lacking but I also didn't find it exceptional as I expected it to be. The seating and lighting was really nice. Overall, I would return again for another try!Special Features:
- birthday dinnerkdubsDined on 10/3/2014The food was great. However I didn't appreciate being cramped in a small room. The room was all couples but still there was no elbow room, and at $50 a plate I expect to not have to hear the person's conversation next to me.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- MeateaterDined on 9/20/2014Too expensive. Presentation of food is lacking, don't like the ala carte menu. When you pay that much for a steak it would be nice to have sides with it without paying extra. A slab of meat served on a cheap looking plate is not very attractive. And the meat was too greasy.Special Features:
- It was just ok in our opinion.....KimCDined on 9/18/2014I've definitely been to Ruth's Chris in multiple states and this one was just ok. The parking was $10 . Everywhere else it's complimentary and you give a tip. Also the food was cool but I wasn't overly impressed. Food portions were small.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Special times with my special manablessedcoupleVIPDined on 9/17/2014Once again we dined before taking our seats at Pier Six for Steely Dan. Although we chose to sit outside, our meal came prepared to our table piping hot. It was delicious and so were the 2 vodka on rocks I ordered. The only note I will make is that there were an city ordinance in place for people to smoke 15 feet away from the restaurant. The perimeter of the dining area outside apparently doesn't take that into consideration. We made the best of it and the show made up it too. CheersSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- AlisaalisaDined on 9/13/2014Steak was fabulous, as were the hors doeuvres and sides. Our waiter was both very professional and personable - a tough combo to get just right. His name was Dean - he should be acknowledged by management Large portions - expensive but worth every dollar. Seated right on time in line with our reservation which is rare.Special Features:
- A bit off this timeOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 9/13/2014We've enjoyed the Ruth's Chris Pier 5 several times, but on our most recent visit the experience was hurried and pretty forgettable. The food, as always, was terrific, but the service was mediocre at best. Clearly the restaurant was overwhelmed, as was move of B-more with the Star Spangled celebration, but from the moment we arrived we felt as though we were an afterthought. The waiter, to be fair, had been sourced from another Ruth's Chris that day, apparently in expectation of that night's onslaught of reservations, but it seemed as though there was little in the way of pre-planning that had occured. The restaurant is very nice, but the condition of the men's room that night almost killed my appetite. Don't know that we'll go back.Special Features:
- Ruths Chris regularExpierienceCritic1Dined on 9/12/2014Ruths Chris is a place that myself and my boyfriend regularly dine at. We always request David,he is knowledgeable,friendly and down to earth. For my boyfriends 25th birthday we arrived to rose pedals on the table,compliments of David and the hostesses. So friendly and welcoming! We love Ruths Chris!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Very niceJazmineDined on 9/6/2014My boyfriend and I went to celebrate my new job. We got there as the restuarante was opening so it was empty and quiet. This was perfect for a romantic setting. I booked my reservation through Open Table and they seem to save you a seat by the windows every time. Not exactly sure why but we enjoyed it! We got to see the people of the Inner Harbor roaming around on a beautiful day. My boyfriend who isn't a steak fan asked for a recommendation from our server and he is now a steak fan! Highly recommend this place!Special Features:
- Very Good RestaurantFoodLoverDined on 8/29/2014Ruth Chris was very good; nice, quiet atmosphere of fine dining on the inside and it also had two outside decks. The menu offers a good selection of steak and seafood. If you are in the Inner Harbor area and you wish to have an upscale dining experience, I recommend this restaurant!Special Features:
- ConcertLovelyplaceDined on 8/26/2014Always loved Ruth Chris steaks. Never had bad service at any location.Special Features:
- Ruth Chris is Nothing SpecialImaFoodieDined on 8/23/2014The Ruth Chris brand needs a make over. I don't like giving negative reviews, but in this case it is warranted. I know you're not supposed to go to a steakhouse for anything other than steak. I had crab cakes. The crab meat was over whelmed with pepper. I love spicy food, but crab meat has such a delicate flavor it can easily be ruined.The entire meal was just average. Normally, I can get some solace in the bread basket when the food misses the mark. Not in this case. The bread was dry and tasteless. I felt like I was eating paper. Ruth Chris needs to step up its game.Special Features:
- Our Go-To Steak PlaceOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/23/2014This location is our first choice when choosing steak restaurants in Baltimore. The service is always first rate and the food never ever disappoints. Servings are so big that we either skip salad / soup and share two sides or we get salad or soup and share one side. Desserts are fabulous and are big enough to share. The wine list is extensive but the staff is knowledgeable and can make good suggestions.Special Features:
- Ruth Chris RestaurantOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/22/2014It was a wonderful experience! The main course was excellent. The wait staff was excellent. The desserts were excellent. We really enjoyed the bananas foster being made at our table!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very GoodOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 8/15/2014I really enjoy Ruth's Chris. Their food is consistently good. I feel like portions have been shrinking for a few years now, and the bill has been climbing upwards, which is my only complaint. They broil their steaks, and with a smaller steak, it is more difficult to achieve perfection in cooking with this method.Special Features:
- Birthday/AnniversaryOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/10/2014My husband and I enjoyed the service by Reza; as well as the food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A Little DisapointedAwesomeDined on 8/10/2014Although I gave the food, service and ambience 4 Stars I was really disappointed in the way the patrons were dressed last night and were seated to dine. When I think of Ruth Chris, I think of Class, Charm, and Special Treat. Although last night was not too classy. The Dress Code is right on the front door, and it clearly states no cut off's with fringe (there was) no athletic wear (there was) I even saw one guy come in what looked like cotton pajama pants. Also, shorts and T-shirts. My husband and I went to the Oriole game yesterday but made a point to go home and dress to dine. Maybe Ruth Chris is just no so special anymore. I was really disappointed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Medicaid Reform in the 1990s.
The States were not the only actors in the Medicaid reform arena. Congress enacted a number of reforms at the national level, including changes in the laws governing Medicaid payments to disproportionate share hospitals (DSH), welfare reform, repeal of the Boren Amendment and enactment of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP).
As we enter the first decade of the 21st Century, these various reform movements continue to develop, and their full implications are not yet clear. One thing that is certain, however, is that Medicaid reform has thrown into relief the program's broad reach and its relationships to multiple constituencies. It has also highlighted the administrative, logistical, and political challenges inherent in any attempt to reform a large public program such as Medicaid. This special issue of the Health Care Financing Review features eight articles that examine various aspects of Medicaid reform, their impact and possible future directions for the reform movement. Together they provide an overall view of the impact, successes, and challenges of Medicaid reform, and the prospects for the future.
States had many motivations for pursuing Medicaid reform in the early 1990s (Ku, et al., 2000). Among the most important of these was a desire to control costs. Between 1990 and 1992, Medicaid expenditures nationwide grew at an average annual rate of 27 percent. While much of the increase was fueled by congressionally mandated eligibility expansion(1) and large increases in DSH spending, other factors, such as general health care inflation and increased enrollment of persons with high levels of health care need, also contributed to the increase (Bruen and Holahan, 2001). Managed care seemed to offer a means of controlling the cost of Medicaid. By paying private managed care plans a fixed fee per covered life, State Medicaid agencies achieved cost predictability, while passing the risk for increased expenditures on to the private managed care plans. Medicaid managed care was also seen as an opportunity to improve the quality of care for Medicaid beneficiaries, and to accomplish some longstanding public health goals. Contracted managed care plans could be held accountable for improvements in immunization rates and use of primary and preventive care, and would have an incentive to minimize unnecessary emergency room use. Finally, enrolling Medicaid eligibles into managed care plans that also catered to private sector employers offered the hope of increased access to "mainsteam" health care providers, even while restricting their choice to those providers contracting with specific health plans.
For most of this period, Federal waivers were required for Sates to implement mandatory Medicaid managed care.(2) States had two routes to pursue the needed waivers. Sates could seek waivers under section 1915(b) of the Social Security Act,(3) which permitted mandatory enrollment of Medicaid beneficiaries with capitated managed care plans or primary care case managers. States could limit managed care to selected populations, regions or services, and use projected savings to provide additional services not included in the Sate plan. Section 1115 offered even broader waiver authority. Under 1115, States could receive waivers of essentially any provision of section 1902, including those that could be waived under 1915(b), as well as receive Federal matching funds for additional expenditures not normally included under Title XIX. The latter provision is used to allow Sates to offer Medicaid coverage to persons not normally entitled to participate, such as childless adults and others not eligible under cash assistance criteria.
In 1990, only a handful of Sates had waivers under 1915(b), and only two (Arizona and Minnesota) had 1115 waivers to implement Medicaid managed care. As of June 1999, 34 States had at least one 1915(b) program, and 16 States were operating research and demonstration programs under 1115 that involved managed care in some way.(4) The percentage of Medicaid eligibles in managed care increased from approximately 10 percent in 1990 to 55 percent in 1999, of which 42 percent were enrolled in capitated managed care, and 13 percent were assigned to a primary care case manager.(5)
The transformation of Medicaid from FFS to managed health care services has been a difficult process, and has left few of Medicaid's many constituencies untouched. The following is a brief review of some of the issues faced by Medicaid managed care programs as they have developed, with emphasis on the experience of 1115 waiver demonstrations.
Administrative Issues--All of the 1115 waiver demonstrations experienced significant administrative problems in their early stages (Ku, et al., 2000; Gold and Mittler 20001)). Erecting and maintaining systems that could enroll and track Medicaid eligibles participating in managed care plans, monitor plan performance, and address quality issues proved to be a considerable challenge. States that took a slower, more deliberate approach to implementation tended to encounter fewer problems than those that implemented their programs rapidly (Ku, et al., 2000). Over time, many of the problems encountered in the initial phases were addressed and resolved. Contrary to the expectations of some, Medicaid managed care programs appear to require more administrative resources than FFS Medicaid, because of the need for additional monitoring (Wooldridge and Hoag, 2000).
Plan Participation--In order for mandatory Medicaid managed care to work, States typically must recruit and retain more than one managed care plan to serve Medicaid beneficiaries in each service area. This is needed to provide Medicaid beneficiaries with a choice of managed care plans.(6) Also, States need to attract and retain commercial health maintenance organizations if they are to attain their goal of "mainstreaming" Medicaid beneficiaries. Most States implementing Medicaid managed care programs have experienced some difficulty in attracting or retaining a sufficient number of plans. As programs have matured, some of the plans that participated initially, particularly commercial HMOs, have dropped out, although others have entered (Ku, et al., 2000). Plans cited low capitation rates, the administrative burden of compliance with Medicaid requirements, and (for commercial plans) differences between Medicaid and commercial health insurance as barriers to participation (Gold and Mitler, 2000b).
Traditional Providers--Medicaid managed care was an unwelcome change for many of the public and voluntary hospitals and community health clinics that have traditionally served the low-income population. Prior to Medicaid reform, many States had developed systems of "safety net" providers dedicated to addressing the health care needs of the poor. These systems were supported by a combination of State and Federal grants, charitable donations, Medicaid claims, and DSH payments and whatever funds their clients could pay out of pocket. Medicaid managed care disrupted these financial arrangements and placed administrative demands on traditional providers that many were not prepared to face. This was especially true of federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and other community health clinics, many of which were heavily dependent on Medicaid funding (Gold and Mittler, 2000b). Clinics were faced with the loss of full-cost reimbursement, and need to develop additional administrative capacity to contract with managed care plans, and competition for patients from mainstream providers (Hoag, Norton, and Rajan, 2000; Ku, et al., 2000). FQHCs have been able to meet these challenges, but with some difficulty and with additional financial help from their States (Hoag, Norton, and Rajan, 2000). Traditional providers of mental health and substance abuse services were similarly affected by the switch to Medicaid managed care. Their operations were also affected by the various "carve-in" and "carve-out" arrangements used by States to provide mental health and substance abuse service coverage (Gold and Mittler, 2000a; Ku, et al., 2000).
Cost containment has not been the only emphasis of Medicaid reform. In many States, expansion of eligibility was a key reform component. Of the 16 States with current section 1115 managed care demonstrations, 11 feature some kind of eligibility expansion.(7) The experience of Tennessee shows that eligibility expansion through Medicaid can significantly reduce the number of people who lack health insurance (Ku, et al., 2000). The impact of eligibility expansions in Hawaii, Oregon, and Rhode Island, however, has been less pronounced (Ku, et al., 2000). In Oregon, the expansion population was in poorer health and had greater need for health care services than expected, compared with the State's initial projections for this population and the experience of traditional Medicaid eligibles (Haber, Khatutsky, and Mitchell, 2000). This phenomenon has been observed in other States with eligibility expansions (Sirica, 2001).
Much of the increase in Medicaid spending in the early 1990s can be attributed to the increased use by States of novel financing arrangements in conjunction with their supplemental funding programs for DSHs. These practices were part of a strategy by the States to maximize their receipt of Federal Medicaid dollars. Between 1990 and 1992, national DSH expenditures rose from $1.4 billion to $17.5 billion annually. In 1991, 1993, and 1997 Congress acted to curtail these practices and limit the aggregate amount of DSH spending. By 1997, DSH spending had fallen to $15.9 billion. States relied less on provider taxes and donations, and more on intergovernmental transfers, to fund their DSH programs. Hospitals also retained a greater percentage of DSH spending, with States retaining less (Coughlin, Ku, and Kim, 2000).
When Medicaid managed care programs first began, States focused their efforts on the AFDC and related populations. Consisting mainly of children and their working-age adult caretakers, these populations were considered to be most similar to those typically served by commercial health maintenance organizations. Because a large percentage of non-disabled adults and children have now been enrolled in managed care, States are now extending Medicaid managed care to their elderly and disabled beneficiaries. These individuals typically have special health care needs, and often qualify for Medicare in addition to Medicaid, making their incorporation into Medicaid managed care especially difficult (Gold and Mittler, 2000b). As States implement Medicaid managed care for their disabled and elderly populations, care must be taken to ensure that their access to quality health care is not diminished.
More research is needed on the impact of Medicaid managed care on access to care, quality of care, and satisfaction of beneficiaries. To date, few studies have examined these issues directly. Those that have tend to show patterns of care similar to those found under FFS Medicaid (Coughlin and Long 1999a, 1999b).
The reforms of the 1990s have provided partial solutions to the longstanding problems of Medicaid (Gold and Mittler 2000b). More work is needed to address old issues, such as provider participation and program financing, as well as new ones, such as ensuring quality care for beneficiaries enrolled in managed care plans. Medicaid reform, especially eligibility expansion, has highlighted the potential role that Medicaid could play in a broader health care reform effort. The coming decade is likely to be another reform decade, as State and Federal governments grapple to meet these challenges.

(1) Between 1986 and 1990, Congress passed a series of laws to extend Medicaid coverage to additional pregnant women and children, based on participants' family income relative to the Federal poverty level (FPL), rather than participation in the AFDC program. Ultimately, States were required to cover pregnant women and children up to age 6 with incomes up to 133 percent of FPL, and children born after September 30, 1983, with incomes up to 100 percent of FPL (Hakim, Boben, and Bonney, 2000).
(2) The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 created a "State plan option" in which States could implement mandatory Medicaid managed care without obtaining waivers. As of January 2001, eight States had established Medicaid managed care programs under the 1932 (a) State plan option. A number of these States had begun their programs under 1915(b).

Apple Overtaken By Exxon As Most Valuable Firm
Apple has been overtaken as the most valuable company in the world - by its old rival Exxon Mobil - after the iPhone and iPad maker saw its stock price fall.
Exxon Mobil is now the largest US publicly-traded company by market value - roughly a year after losing the title to Apple.
Apple's stock has kept on declining since it released its earnings report on Wednesday.
It dropped 2% on Friday to $441.30 (£279.36) for a market capitalisation of $414.5bn (£262.4bn).
Exxon Mobil, meanwhile, gained 13 cents to $91.48 (£57.91) and has a market capitalisation of $417bn (£264bn).
Apple's earnings results suggested that its phase of fast growth - which is rare for a company of its size - may be coming to an end.
On Thursday, the stock saw its biggest one-day percentage drop since 2008.
Apple's market capitalisation has now fallen by about $250bn (£158bn) - roughly the market value of Google - since hitting a high last September, when the stock traded above $700 (£443).
Apple first surpassed multinational oil and gas firm Exxon in the summer of 2011.
The two companies swapped places that autumn, until Apple surpassed Exxon for good in early 2012 before their latest reversal of fortunes.
"Apple was clearly a momentum stock," said Kim Forrest, a senior equity research analyst at Fort Pitt Capital Group.
"Whenever the numbers behind momentum stocks stop, the momentum players are out and the stock tumbles."
Nevertheless, Apple still managed to ship a record 47.8 million iPhones in the December quarter, up 29% from a year earlier.
However, that lagged behind the 50 million phones that analysts on average had projected.

AMD Catalyst 11.11 Brings Critical Linux Changes
Published on 15 November 2011 02:50 PM EST
Written by
Michael Larabel
68 Comments
a belated Catalyst 11.10 release
, this month's proprietary Catalyst Linux driver for ATI/AMD Radeon and FirePro graphics cards is now available. The Catalyst 11.11 driver does bring some critical changes.
What's good about Catalyst 11.11 over previous releases? Well, AMD has still discontinued their tradition of publishing release notes for the public for their Catalyst Linux driver build, but Phoronix has you covered. Some of what's noteworthy about the Catalyst 11.11 binary blob for Linux is:
- X.Org Server 1.11 support! This means the recently-released Fedora 17 should now work. AMD was slow in supporting xorg-server 1.11 this time around since Ubuntu 11.10 stuck to X.Org Server 1.10, which means AMD didn't need to get any Catalyst driver support for this latest upstream release in the September/October time-frame. Going forward with X.Org Server 1.12 and future versions, however, I hear they will be aiming for a quicker turnaround time. Other new distributions will also be shipping with X.Org Server 1.11+, so this is good news but it's too bad those early adopters had to wait until November for binary support. X.Org Server 1.11 was originally released as stable in August after being in development for several months.
- There's "early look" support for openSUSE 12.1, which is set to be released on Wednesday.
- The big one affecting all users of the Catalyst Linux driver is that there's finally OpenCL run-time integration! The 32-bit and 64-bit AMD Linux OpenCL binaries for the SDK are finally included with the Catalyst driver itself, instead of having to install the AMD Stream SDK for the Open Computing Language support. This should have come much sooner, but regardless there's finally some common sense in the packaging that will allow OpenCL support to be more widespread.
- Assorted bug-fixes and various packaging script updates, but nothing that's incredibly exciting.
The Catalyst 11.11 release is part of the fglrx 8.91 release stream. But that rounds up the changes, with the two big items being the OpenCL run-time integration and X.Org Server 1.11 support. We already know that
Catalyst 11.12 will be even better
in time for the holidays.

More reviews by xXVampirePrincessXx
This was the first makeup remover I've ever purchased. It costs around $5 at drugstores. It works well at taking off eye makeup. I can't say about waterproof makeup because I don't wear it, but I do know it works well at taking off regular eye makeup. The only problem was is was really oily, and blurred up my vision. When I would wash my eyes, my eyes would still stay a bit blurry, but it would eventually calm down. I just didn't enjoy how oily my eyelids and my under-eyes were, so I will not purchase this product again.

Good budget product.
Gentle, leaves a slight slick residue when cleansing, which is good as it stops you pulling on the delicate skin around your eyes. This is easily removed with a tiny bit of normal face cleanser.
Unfortunately does not remove my mascara, but this may be because I use a tubing macara, and I don't think drugstore products are really formulated for removing that (given most drugstore mascaras are not tubing).
May need better packaging, but nice, inexpensive product that really does remove eye makeup.
More reviews by doe_eyed_kitty
Ok this does remove eye MU, wp mascara, eyeliners and ALL the colors of ES you could every apply on your eyelid. BUT.... *drum rolls* it irritated my skin and my eyes (I accidentally opened my left eye a little bit and it burned). Also, it leaves a film of oil on my skin, yucks....
With this product you really get a bang for your buck! At my local CVS i picked it up while on sale so it came out around $4-$5 so it's very cheap for the amount you get.
I usually only apply this with a cotton ball if i'm wearing heavy eye makeup, or waterproof mascara. You just need to work it into your eye area for maybe 20-30 seconds, not too rough (you don't want to take out any lashes) & it'll take off practically all the makeup you were wearing!
The only downside to this is it's oily/greasy, even if it states it's oil-free. It shouldn't be a problem though since you should wash your face afterwards anyways.
As a remover in general, this product is the best. It is about $6 at Walgreens. When I used this to take off all of my eye makeup (while washing my face at night), I noticed I went through a lot of the product, so I try to only use this for fixing smudges and makeup mistakes. However, if I do have a hard time removing an extra stubborn mascara, this will do the trick! My only issue, is despite this being oil-free, this is VERY greasy feeling. Overall one of the best eye makeup removers I've found, though!
This works very well. I have a cute trick. I kept an old mascara brush and cleaned it off with Dawn. I stick in the bottle and use that to get it on my eyelashes. That way I don't have to rub as much or risk getting in my eye as I try to apply it to the part of the lash with the mascara with my finger or a Q-tip. You don't need to use as much. Before I had to use a lot and rub a lot. I was almost ready to give up on mascara, because of the hassle of removing even non-waterproof.
I have tried other make up removers and I like this. I don't need oil free, but some of those oily ones get in your eyes and make you see blurry. Mary Kay and L'Oreals version work too. So far I like this best. There probably is CVS or Duane Reade Equivalent that is just as good.

Overall, excellent product at a decent price. This is my go-to drugstore remover. I would like a smaller opening, but other than that, it's fabulous. When I can't splurge on my Mary Kay remover (fave!!) or Clinique, this is my best option. Apply it with a cotton round, not cotton ball and you use half as much product. I wear a lot of eye makeup and it does the trick! No irritability either. :)
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Works well to remove most eye makeup. I put it on a cotton ball/pad, swipe my lids, and work it into the lashes/lash line for about 20-30 seconds, then rinse with water. Sometimes need to repeat, but really not often. It does leave a greasy film. I find that that doesn't last long enough to really be bothersome. The product doesn't irritate my skin or eyes.
The opening of the bottle is too large, but I can deal with it!
Overall a good product and very affordably priced.
I think this can be the best eye makeup remover I've ever used, and I've used a lot, from expensive (Lancome, Clinique) to cheap (Neutrogena, Boots Botanics).
This removes my eye makeup with ease, all I have to do is wet a cotton round, and put it on my eye, and wait about 20 seconds. It removes my waterproof mascara really well too, and it doesn't irritate my eyes ( I wear contacts too). It's less greasy than some other highly rated removers like Boots Botanics, Lumene, or Clinique, and works just as well if not better.
The only thing I don't like is the packaging. I really wish they put a cap on the bottle opening to make the opening smaller, so it'll be easier to control how much remover you want.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
HG for now! I went a long time just using makeup remover wipes, and decided I needed to go back to using an separate remover for my eyes. I tried something my loreal (blue bottle) and it was awful. I pushed through the whole bottle though (i hate waste). Picked this up after a YouTube recommendation and I'm in love! I don't wear waterproof generally, but I wear heavy dark eye makeup. Liquid winged liner, Smokey, and lots of coats of mascara plus falsies. This works great for getting it all off without rubbing =]

Although the Thunder fell short in its first appearance in the NBA Finals, ABC studio analysts Magic Johnson and Jon Barry said the team can look ahead to a bright future.
NBA Finals Remote Patrol: ABC analysts agree future is bright for young Thunder team
Johnson, the former Lakers star guard, even went so far as to "guarantee" the Thunder will win a championship if the nucleus of the team is retained.
"I will guarantee this: If they stay together, they will win a championship, whether it's next season or the season after that," he said. "They better keep Scott Brooks. He's a great coach and great for the guys."
Barry, who picked the Thunder to win this year's finals, said it was likely the Thunder would be back in the finals next year. "We'll see what they learned and see if they can win it."
Barry said the Thunder didn't look the same team that "ran roughshod" over the San Antonio Spurs, Los Angeles Lakers or Dallas Mavericks in earlier playoff series. "They did not play with a sense of confidence. James Harden struggled. A lot of guys didn't play like they had in previous games."
However, he credited Miami's defense for slowing the Thunder's offense and the Heat's bench for outplaying the Thunder's reserves. "This is a defensive team they hadn't seen before," he said.
Game analyst Jeff Van Gundy, who also picked the Thunder to win, said he didn't buy the argument that the team "wasn't experienced enough."
"They just met up with another great team that just made two or three more plays in Games 2 to 4 than they did and unfortunately got hit with a haymaker tonight with all of those 3-point shots."
Van Gundy complimented the Thunder's playoff run.
"They have a tremendous future in front of them," he said. Noting new contracts must be worked out for Harden and Serge Ibaka, he said, "You hope their core isn't broken up because of finances."
Among the best shots of the telecast was series MVP LeBron James jumping up and down in the closing minutes and poignant shots of Kevin Durant hugging his mother and brother and Thunder owner Clay Bennett hugging his players.
ABC also showed a late timeout of Brooks telling his players they had nothing to hang their heads about and that they needed to congratulate all the Heat players after the game. "They beat us fair and square," he said. "Give them credit."

|In reality this is no more than a 20 minute hike- 15 if you're fit. Not a big deal at all.
By Jeremy Steck

|To find the trail, park on the right hand side of the road (heading up canyon) in a small pullout, .2 miles from the Saw Mill Picnic area. This pullout is located about 100 yds down canyon from the first entrance to the Little Mill Campground. The trail is located across the road from the pull out and up canyon about 100 feet (faint). If using the Ruckman guidebook, page 69 is accurate except that the road on the right that says "Little Mill Campground, one way" should say Saw Mill Picnic Area.

Third Point is well on its way to posting gains similar—or better—than those it enjoyed last year.
The New York-based firm's $1.7 billion Ultra Fund, which is more highly levered than its flagship Offshore Fund, is up 12.42% through March 13, according to HSBC Private Bank. The fund soared 34.5% last year.
Ultra was up 3.3% in the first half of March.
Third Point's Offshore Fund is up 8.5% through March 13.
The hedge fund has profited this year from its investments in Japan and Greece, and in AIG, Herbalife and Morgan Stanley. All five of the fund's top positions at the end of February were up through March 13.

The biggest news in last week's GOP presidential debate was Rep. Michele Bachmann's attack on Texas Gov. Rick Perry for ordering Texas girls to receive the "HPV" vaccine preventing cervical cancer. Bachmann called the vaccine against the human papillomavirus "dangerous," a claim immediately countered by health experts. In a story in Monday's New York Times, medical reporter Denise Grady wrote, "But the harm to public health may have already been done. When politicians or celebrities raise alarms about vaccines, even false alarms, vaccination rates drop." Idaho earns the distinction of having the lowest HPV vaccination rate of any state, with 17 percent of girls between 13 and 17 having received the recommended three vaccines. Others below 20 percent included Mississippi, Arkansas and Alabama. The national average is 32 percent. Rhode Island has the highest rate, 55 percent/Dan Popkey, Statesman. More here. (AP file photo)

- 1 large box black cherry jello
- 1 can pitted black cherries – drained but juice reserved
- 1 8oz unsweetened heavy whipping cream
- 1 8 oz sweetened heavy whipping cream
- Make jello according to directions less 1/2 cup water – you can also substitute some of the cherry juice for the water
- Whip 1 container cream but do not add sugar
- When jello is slightly firm, fold in whipping cream and cherries
- Pour into jello mold or baking dish
- Serve with sweetened whipping cream
NotesThis is kind of a family joke, it is Cristel's favorite jello, but she can't make it – or at least that's what she claims – I think it is may be a case of her being crafty enough to get the rest of us to just make it for her!
