Cloud, big data speed past other tech sectors in M&A deals
Acquisitions of cloud and big data firms increased significantly despite an overall decline in mergers and acquisitions (M&As) in the technology sector last year, according to the latest figures from accounting firm Ernst & Young.
Cloud firm acquisitions grew to more than 15 percent of global technology M&A deal volume in 2012, more than triple its level in 2011. Big data firm acquisitions also posted healthy growth, but from a smaller base, according to the firm's Global Technology M&A Update.
In 2012, the top five tech deals in terms of value were Cisco's (Nasdaq: CSCO) acquisition of NDS for $5 billion, SAP's (NYSE: SAP) purchase of Ariba for $4.5 billion, CGI Group's acquisition of Logica for $2.7 billion, Dell's (Nasdaq: DELL) purchase of Quest Software for $2.6 billion and ASML Holding's acquisition of Cymer for $2.5 billion.
"SaaS [software-as-a-service] and cloud ran away from the rest of the pack in terms of deal-driving trends in 2012," Joe Steger, head of global M&A and transaction advisory services leader for Ernst & Young, told FierceEnterpriseCommunications. There were between 450 and 500 SaaS and cloud deals and between 150 and 200 big data analytics deals, he related.
In addition, non-tech firms increased their technology-buying activity, accounting for 10 percent of the aggregate M&A value and 12 percent of the M&A volume. Other sectors that saw increased deal-making included smart mobility, social networking, advertising and marketing, security, mobile payment and healthcare IT, according to Ernst & Young.
Tech M&A deal value declined 35 percent last year to $114 billion from $176 billion in 2011. The 2011 value total was boosted by two deals that exceeded $10 billion: Google's (Nasdaq: GOOG) $12.5 billion acquisition of Motorola Mobility and HP's (NYSE: HPQ) $11.7 billion purchase of Autonomy.
Around 28 M&A deals totaled more than $1 billion last year, representing 45 percent of the full-year aggregate value. This compares with 36 M&A deals in 2011, or 63 percent of the full-year aggregate value.
Deal volume declined slightly in 2012, with 2,934 deals consummated last year, just two deals fewer than in 2011. Corporate volume increased 2 percent, while private equity volume declined 19 percent.
The decrease in deal volume manifested itself in two sectors: Internet and semiconductors. The 12 percent decline in Internet deal volume in the second half of the year was the largest drop ever, according to Ernst & Young.
"Macroeconomic uncertainty took hold in 2012, which had a dampening effect on large transformative deals, but it did not slow down the smaller and mid-sized strategic deals of $1 billion or less," Steger observed.
Steger identified five "megatrends" in technology M&As over the last couple of years: smart mobility, cloud computing, social networking, big data analytics and accelerated adaption (non-technology companies acquiring technology firms).
"Smart mobility is embedded in a lot of different areas, whether it is embedded in SaaS and cloud or social networking, mobile games and big data," Steger said.
For 2013, Steger predicts that the first quarter will be slow in terms of tech M&A activity. For the entire year, he expects a decline in megadeals because of continued macroeconomic uncertainty.

Wheeling runner Marti Stephan is winning the fight against ovarian cancer (stage 4) in a big way. In fact, she has no intention of letting her cancer keep her from completing the Ogden 20K race this coming Saturday, May 29.
Marti - who was profiled in an issue of the newspapers' Boomers & Beyond section last year - has completed 30 of the annual 20K races thus far and this will be her 31st.
Her physical endurance and positive attitude is incredible, according to her husband, Denny Stephan, who noted that she finished her final chemotherapy treatment Monday, May 10.
"She is an inspiration to many and her hope is to encourage others with adversity to deal with it in a positive manner," Denny Stephan commented.
Go, Marti, go!
When Friends of Wheeling members and guests gathered for the historic preservation group's annual dinner at Oglebay Institute's Stifel Fine Arts Center in Wheeling Wednesday, May 19, they participated in a special photographic session for national dissemination.
Hydie Friend, executive director of Wheeling National Heritage Area Corp., encouraged everyone in attendance to venture onto the front steps of Stifel Center and stand behind a Wheeling National Heritage banner proclaiming "Smart. Green. Working."
Photographer and Friends of Wheeling member Gary Zearott then took several shots of the assembled group holding the special banner. Friend explained that the photograph will be submitted for a national campaign organized by other heritage areas to promote the concept of national heritage areas. She said a copy of the photo also will be sent to the office of U.S. Sen. Robert C. Byrd, D-W.Va., in recognition of his support for the Wheeling National Heritage Area.
During the Friends of Wheeling dinner, guests were treated to a slice of history about Stifel Center, which had been the private mansion of Edward and Emily Stifel from 1910 until 1976, when the Stifel family gave the property to Oglebay Institute. The property was named Edemar in honor of the Stifels' three children, Edward, Emily and Mary.
The Stifels' grandson, Edward "Ed"Stifel III of Wheeling, recalled life at his grandparents' home and reminisced about the era before television and the Internet when "people made their own fun." He noted that all of the "big, beautiful houses around town have porches," where people gathered "to tell stories and lies."
Sharing the story of those times of fun and mischief-making, Stifel said his grandfather once purchased metal flowers and placed them at strategic spots in his wife's beloved gardens on the eve of April Fool's Day. When April 1 dawned, the elder Stifel steered his wife casually to the windows overlooking the gardens. Looking out on the amazing sight, she proclaimed, "Oh, Ed, my flowers are up already!"
Ed Stifel also related that a rare carpet, which had been used as a cover for the family's pool table, later was sold at auction for more than $400,000. He quipped that the new owner of the expensive floor covering didn't know that the rug also had been the family dog's favorite sleeping spot, and that, on one occasion, the dog - apparently piqued at its owners - had urinated on the valuable carpet.
Actor and Wheeling native John Corbett is reprising one of his most famous roles, Aidan, from "Sex and the City," for the popular television series' new film sequel, ""Sex and the City 2."
In the new "SATC2" movie, Corbett's character, Aidan, a former love interest of the series' main character, Carrie Bradshaw, reappears in Morocco, where Carrie (played by actress Sarah Jessica Parker) and her three gal pals are vacationing. During an appearance by Parker on "The Today Show" Thursday, May 20, "Today" co-host Meredith Viera commented that Corbett "is so darn adorable."
Coincidentally, Corbett and Parker now share an Ohio Valley connection. Parker's twin daughters were born, via surrogacy, in Martins Ferry last summer, and Corbett, of course, was born in Wheeling.

Looks like they are teasing the poor dog with something off camera, dog looks elderly and I aint no vet but cataracts? If that's a PB poodle it's the furthest thing from stupid, poodles are actually very intelligent, the standard sized ones anyway...
That video really bothers me.
Looks like normal crazy dog behavior to me. I have a dog who's easily wound up, and she's almost 14. All it takes is her "going for a walk" harness and the noises start. When she was younger I could barely get the harness on her due to all the spinning around, barking, play-bows, and running around.

text: In this third installment of the 'Mi Comunidad' multimedia series, I planned to produce a piece about Cinco de Mayo, a Mexican holiday which commemorates an important victory against the French army. I learned that Burns students were researching several Latino topics in recognition of Cinco de Mayo. During my first visit to the school, I noticed the wonderful light falling on a young man from a hallway skylight. At the risk of being rude, I stopped talking to the teacher I was interviewing and began photographing him. Sometimes the photograph appears out of nowhere. I then introduced myself to Kevin and explained my project. I knew I had a story when I learned that Kevin had discovered his Taíno ancestry through a genetic mapping project.

One Track Sunday: Robin Thicke Debuts Give It To U
By Jessica Rawden 3 years ago
People are still all over Robin Thickes summer single Blurred Lines, but Thicke is back with another single and another video to boot, which dropped about a week ago. The song is Give It to U featuring Kendrick Lamar and 2Chainz, a track that touts the largesse of Thickes ego (and apparently his dick).
Phallic references and scantily clad women are hallmarks of Thickes music videos, and Give It to U is no exception. The video was shot at a football field and features gals in marching band uniforms and goofy-looking football gear, although thankfully the only nudity we get this time around is a dude streaking across the field, and to make this one safe for the office, the naked dude has been pixilated so we dont see much of anything. In other instances, girls dress up in cotton candy, the masket for the team is a giant roll of money, and we get to see a lot of fast-shaking booties as 2Chainz is introduced.
2Chainzs boring chain reaction verse is probably the worst writing in the song itself, but you probably wont notice this, as he is introduced by a giant float that is dedicated to a womans best asset. Whether or not you are invested in the song or the video, it has attracted a lot of attention thus far, pulling in nearly 4 million YouTube hits. Famed music video director Diane Martel was behind the lens for this Thicke endeavor, as well.
Thats a lot of plays for a video that has gone fairly unnoticed in the media this week. There have been plenty of angry torrents, critical essays, and other backlash related to Thickes MTV VMAs performance with Miley Cyrus, which featured the scantily clad 20-year-old shaking up against Thicke in a flesh-colored costume. Some would later call the performance racist while others called it fun, and while most of the chatter was directed at Cyrus, Thicke has sort of been lumped in by default, although its worth noting that the same sort of foam finger that had people all hot and bothered over Cyrus performance also pops up in the video for Give It to U. Then again, even Thicke has admitted he doesnt think he could ever top the music video for Blurred Lines. Maybe he doesnt mind a little less spotlight this time around.
The song was released as the second single off of Thickes sixth studio album Blurred Lines, which has sold well overseas and in the United States. You can order the fun and funky-sounding album over at iTunes.

I got most interesting question which I didn't reply via email, but thought to bring the question here:
I'm addicted to sports games, like you (NHL11), and wanted to know what goes on behind the scenes to create such realistic graphics.
Do you know how the developers go about actually creating these games? Do they hook up individual athletes to a system that creates the code? What about non-marquee named athletes; how do they get the movements just right?
If you can direct me to a website or blog or anything that could help me, I'd greatly appreciate it!
Even though I've said that "everything except NHL series is just hype/trends that die away" and even though I've been playing those games since '93 (*cough*) I hardly consider myself addicted. (After all, I didn't play those 2001-2009, since '95 emulation version was much better)
Now with that being sorted out, I'd like to say that:
- Graphicswise I could imagine indie devs being able to simply do different skating, shooting, passing (etc.) animations. There's talented artists who can handle them, so it doesn't get any more difficult.
- Similarly there's physics libs and engines (Shiva, Unity, Leadwerks come to my mind at first) can help create stunning systems.
Technically, I believe it is possible for indies to create a such hockey game that it could somehow compete with the big studios. How much money there is to be used of course affects how minecrafty players you'll see.
The bigger issue – in my opinion – is getting licenses. It's quite far fetched to get real NHL player names & faces in the game. And that's where indies need to be creative.
Creative as in what one small Finnish studio has done. They created a floorball league game. To get idea about the quality, check this demo video:
These guys managed to snatch the licenses for player names both in Finland and – I think – also in Sweden. The reason is that floorball isn't not a such big sports as for example football (compare number of hockey games: 100+ and floorball games: about 1) and from what I heard (from a gaming magazine – might be wrong) is that the league guys wanted to support that these kind of games gets done which might help make the sports also more popular.
If you have any other opinions, please feel free to share.

Interpreter's Notes
Auburn Heights Preserve
by Dan Citron, Auburn Heights Preserve Interpreter
Read Dan's bio.
As the weather warms, activities are gearing up at Auburn Heights Preserve. The Friends of Auburn Heights Preserve (FAHP) are preparing their steam cars and the Auburn Valley Railroad for an exciting season of events. The visitor favorite, Steamin Days are back, running one or two days a month, June through November. Because of their popularity, the hours have been expanded so that the events run from noon until 4 p.m. New this year are Steamin Evenin Ice Cream Socials on the first Saturdays of June, July and August, from 6 to 9 p.m. Not only will there be great ice cream from Woodside Farm Creamery, but youll get a chance to experience Auburn Heights in the evening hours. For all of the latest information on these events, and to learn about a special fundraising concert to benefit FAHP, please visit www.auburnheights.org.
If you cant make one of the events, or would like a more quiet time to visit, group tours (for eight or more) of the Auburn Heights Mansion or the Marshall Steam Museum are always available by reservation. Once you are here, you can enjoy the historic gardens, state champion trees and peaceful setting with a picnic lunch after your tour.
The buzz in Yorklyn is all about Auburn Heights and the introduction of the Auburn Valley Master Plan. This plan shows the concepts for the public-private partnership that will revitalize Yorklyn with shops, restaurants and the expansion of park property to include portions of the former NVF mill sites. The Marshall Brothers Paper Mill will become a museum and there will be a trail system that connects all portions of the property and trails that will lead to other places like the Ashland Nature Center. To see the concept maps for the property, visit www.yorklyn.org. This will also be the place to check for the latest updates and photos of the work as we move forward.

Massa only managed to be faster trhan his team mate on a couple of occasions. Of course, the haters came crying ha ! ha ! Alonso is slower and that kind of crap...Go figure.
That said, Felipe really seems to have found his mojo and it will indeed be cool to see him win some races again ! Now, if he can be a title contender as well as Fernando, Ferrari won't complain nor will the viewers.

Late-Night Buns at Macao
Macao makes some additions to the late-night menu, and adds an industry party.
Macao Trading Co. has added
Momofuku-esque pork buns (stuffed with kimchi and cucumber) to its late-night program. The rest of the menu follows (served from midnight till 3:30 a.m., seven days). Also new is an "industry" party (akin to the ones at sister bar Employees Only) from 5 p.m. till 4 a.m. on Mondays. Chef-chasers, take note!

Members of Congress should support bipartisan measures to promote patient choice and pharmacy competition including:
- S. 1058/H.R. 1971, the Pharmacy Competition and Consumer Choice Act, which would empower patients and give health plan sponsors basic insights into secretive, billion-dollar middlemen known as pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs).
- H.R. 4215, the Medicare Pharmacy Transparency and Fair Audit Act, which would allow pharmacists to better serve Medicare patients by requiring insurace companies to reimburse us fairly and not harass us with frivolous audits;
- H.R. 1946, the Preserving Our Hometown Independent Pharmacies Act which would allow independent pharmacies to better serve their patients by pushing back against insurance companies that want to push more patients to mail order rather than allowing them to use their neighborhood pharmacy.
- H.R. 1936, the Medicare Access to Diabetes Supplies Act which would ensure that Medicare patients can continue to obtain their diabetes testing supplies from the pharmacy of their choice.

Pittsburgh Steelers (1-1) at Oakland Raiders (0-2)
Sunday, 4:25 p.m. ET. TV: CBS
Location: Oakland County Coliseum
Weather: 70 degrees, partly cloudy
Line: Steelers -4, Total: 44.5
Line movement: The Steelers opened as 6-point favorites during early Sunday night wagering and were immediately bet against, down to -5 within an hour. By Tuesday afternoon, the game was -4. The total has moved up from 44 to 44.5.
Recent meetings:
— 11/16/08: Steelers 35-3 (-7) at Heinz Field
Series trends:
— Underdog is 6-2 ATS in their last eight meetings.
— Steelers have won six of the last nine meetings SU
Steelers outlook: Despite missing two of their defensive stars — Troy Polamalu and James Harrison — the Steelers still shut down the Jets last week, holding them to under 100 yards rushing and Mark Sanchez to a woeful 138 yards passing a week after he lit up the Bills. Pittsburgh seemed to confuse the Jets with a new defensive scheme. The Steelers dropped their opener at Denver but haven't been 0-2 to start the season since 2002 and kept that streak intact last week. They haven't done a good job protecting Ben Roethlisberger, who has been sacked eight times in two games.
Steelers trends:
— Steelers are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 on the road
— Steelers are 0-5 ATS in their last five games following a SU win.
— Under is 6-1 the last seven games the Steelers have been the favored
Steelers key injuries:
—S Troy Polamalu (calf) questionable
—LB James Harrison (knee) doubtful
—RB Rashard Mendenhall (knee) doubtful
Raiders outlook: The Oakland defense was gashed for 263 yards on the ground in a loss at Miami last week to drop to 0-2 on the season. The Raiders can't tackle, can't protect QB Carson Palmer, and it's secondary is in shambles. Oakland worked out four defensive backs after its latest loss and signed Brandian Ross from the Packers' practice squad. Palmer has fared well at home, averaging 342.8 passing yards over his past five starts there, but part of the Raiders' problem is that they've been forced to drive the length of the field to score. Oakland has an average starting position of their own 19-yard line after two games.
Raiders trends:
— Raiders are 9-3 ATS past 12 games as an underdog
— Raiders are 5-2 ATS in their last seven games in Week 3.
— Raiders are 3-12 ATS in 15 recent September home games
Raiders' key injuries:
— CB Ron Bartell (shoulder) IR
— WR Jacoby Ford (foot) IR
— WR Juron Criner (ankle) questionable
— CB Shawntae Spencer (foot) out
— OL Khalif Barnes (groin) out
What The Linemakers are saying: All signs point to this being a Raiders cover. The Raiders have lost their first two games and will have an extra sense of urgency here. They've been good in these spots as the dog, but more importantly, the Steelers have been not-so impressive on the road, and the road to Oakland is a lot further than most they'll travel to. They've averaged only 16 points in their last nine regular-season road games, and the status of their two best defensive players is up in the air. We hate to get caught up in the current trend of home dogs being 8-3 ATS thus far in 2012, but this game looks to add to the list of winners.

Mississippi State SID Greg Ellis says guard Jalen Steele is practicing with the team and should play Sunday when the Bulldogs host Alabama A&M.
Steele has been out with a cracked right wrist he suffered in MSU's second game of the season. Head Coach Rick Ray desperately needs Steele back in the line-up. He is one of only two players on the current roster with playing experience from last season.
Steele's activation means Mississippi State only has seven scholarship players on its roster.
The Bulldogs host Alabama A&M Sunday at 3 p.m. in the Humphrey Coliseum in Mississippi State's campus.

The Greenbrier High School Wolfpack let its chance to claim a season-opening win at Cross Creek slip through their fingers Friday night.
Leading 7-6 at halftime, the Wolfpack lost fumbles in each of their three offensive series in the second half, falling to the Razorbacks, 25-14.
The Wolfpack lost four of their five fumbles on the night.
"We stopped ourselves tonight and we need to fix that," said Wolfpack head coach Kevin Hunt. "We need to be mentally tough and I know we can fix it."
Last Week: 0-1
Well, Cross Creek took care of Greenbrier, which means two things: I am 0-1 picking games to start 2013 and it is going to be a long year for the 'Pack. The bright spot for Greenbrier was the running of Malcolm Thomas, who went for 111 yards on 14 carries.

With the Augusta Christian Lions having a day off from practice, it is not surprising to find running back Thomas Banks in the weight room.
Last seen on the football field, Banks was breaking off a 98-yard, game-winning touchdown run against Hammond in the South Carolina Independent School Association Class AAA championship game.
Since then, he's rededicated himself to working out, especially with what's expected of him in his senior season.
For the Augusta Prep Lady Cavaliers to win the 2013 Georgia Independent School Association Class AAA state volleyball title, they will have to get contributions from all ends of the bench.
That is what they got Tuesday night as they swept the Lady Patriots of Wardlaw Academy in three games of their best-of-five match.
The Lady Cavaliers improved to 8-1 for the year, and head coach Rich Bland got glimpses of what his team could be.

After seeing six games washed out by weather, Greenbrier High School softball head coach Garrett Black was determined to play the game against Morgan County Wednesday night.
It was a battle just to get the game going. They outlasted a 102-minute lightning delay and used 30 bags of field drying agent, spread across the field by the field crew, coaches and parents, to render the field playable.
When I first saw Reggie Reid before the start of the 2012-13 basketball season last year, I wondered what all the fuss was about.
I didn't see him play his freshman year, in which he averaged 19 points and five rebounds per game for the Harlem Bulldogs. He is shorter than me, standing at just 6 feet, but as I watched him in a layup drill, I was amazed. When he went to the hoop, it was like he was on an escalator the way he elevated effortlessly above the rim.
Hunter Banks, senior, Lakeside High, quarterback:
In charge of the Panthers up-tempo offense, Banks threw for over 1,000 yards in 2012 despite missing games with a knee injury. He is back healthy and ready to drive the Panthers back toward another state playoff appearance.

Sorry, who is the Steward?
One of the controversial moments from this weekend surrounded Michael Schumacher's robust defence against Lewis Hamilton – at one point the McLaren driver was even forced on to the grass at the Curva Grande so as to avoid a collision. There was similar moment for Sebastian Vettel who was clearly not entirely happy with Fernando Alonso in his post race press conference. In the end, with Hamilton repeatedly complaining to his team, Ross Brawn came on Schumacher's radio to advise him to "be more careful" and "make room" for Hamilton. Did Schumacher overstep the mark though? More worryingly, however, seems to be the question of who decides…
At the time, many thought Ross Brawn had sensibly tried to stop Schumacher from going too far off his own back. On the BBC commentary, however, it was quickly suggested that Brawn was simply passing on a message from the authorities given that Brawn himself passed on the message and not Schumacher's race engineer. It turns out that that was the case as race control warned Brawn but it was still interpreted as meaning that the stewards thought it was tough driving but didn't quite overstep the mark.
However, it seems that the stewards were never actually involved in the discussion. Instead, race control themselves handled the entire situation. That's right, they never, in fact, passed it on to the stewards who in Monza consisted of ex-Formula One driver Derek Daly, very experienced steward Paul Gutjahr and FIA trainee stewards graduate Silvia Bellot.
Essentially we have a situation where Charlie Whiting is making the stewarding decisions himself. Is that right? I suppose the familiar analogy is the policeman giving a warning rather than charging someone with a crime, they do act as judge.
However, Derek Daly's revelation in a tweet this evening that "Schumi should have had penalty for blocking in Monza – we blew it – Agh" has to make you question the way the system works. Should Whiting be the one making these decisions when there is a panel of stewards allocated to each race? The police analogy is irrelevant when the judge and jury is actually on hand. It's not as if they were overworked during the Italian Grand Prix (Paul Gutjahr was part of the team who forgot to deal with Rubens Barrichello's steering wheel throwing incident at last year's Monaco Grand Prix as they were distracted by Schumacher's late safety car pass.)
However you feel about Schumacher's driving, the people who have the final say on whether it was right or wrong were not offered the chance to do so. In Italy, Jean Todt's claim of more open stewarding took yet another step backwards.

When we do exercise, perspiration sweat from the skin surface helps regulate body temperature. Another effect of sweating is the loss of fluids and electrolytes are essential to our body, when this loss is equivalent to a 1-2% of weight Athlete start to change their physiological functions. This degree of dehydration is common when doing intense exercise, but it is easy to prevent an adequate intake of fluid before, during and after exercise. We recommend the use of specialized beverages to proper hydration. is an isotonic drink made of sugars and electrolytes in proportions balanced, designed to achieve a rapid and complete hydration of the athlete, providing also a refreshing feeling. It also provides a combination of sugars to delaying the onset of fatigue and improving performance during the year and speed recovery afterwards. The composition contains: The sweat is removed by a greater amount than other electrolytes, and is considered critical a sports drink, helping to maintain the osmotic stimulation of thirst, and prevents the loss of water (to avoid excessive production of urine), and improves the taste. Through sweat also loses Lesser amount of the sodium, so it is important to its replenishment. And facilitate the functioning of muscle metabolism and energy. Moreover, Magnesium losses in sweat have been associated with the appearance of muscle cramps. Incorporates a combination of sugars (glucose, sucrose and maltodextrin), who ingested in proportion determine an improvement in physical performance and delay fatigue, and that is used as fuel muscles active. The strategy to keep hydrated to be an athlete be customized based on parameters such as type, duration and intensity of sport practiced, and as the metabolism of each athlete. However, in general may recommend some patterns of fluid intake for an athlete: At this stage hydration should begin early and at regular intervals, trying to consume a liquid fast enough to replace all water lost through sweat. It is generally considered sufficient between 150 and 200 ml every 15 to 20 minutes, with minimal interruption of the exercise. During this period, in addition to moisturize, the contribution of sugars can increase performance and delay the onset of fatigue. This phase of hydration can be a critical to help a rapid recovery between each training session or competition. There are data indicate that it should recover 1.5 times the weight lost after physical exercise in the following 6 hours after the same (eg if you lose 1 kg should be ingested 1.5 liters of fluid over the next 6 hours after the exercise). Dissolve in a bag half liter of water and shake. It is recommended that the temperature is below room temperature, between 15 and 22 º C. Once prepared the solution can be preserved in the refrigerator up to 24 hours.

Have California Employment Law Questions? Ask a Lawyer.
Please let me know if I can clarify or assist you further.
"To Socrateaser"
I think I may have not expressed myself clearly
I am talking here about 1995 assesment which I never received
I filed petition just now because i just learned about the case now in
Sept 2011 and the judge desided it was not timely petition
but I can still appeal if I pay in full.
My question is if I pay the original amount from 1995 not including pennalty and taxes can I still appeal
in order for me to appeal to CUIAB they wanted 1st to hold the hearing if my appeal was timely. The ALJ says it is not and I appealed his decsn to the board and now awaiting for thier reply. If they say no them my options are to pay in full and appeal to them again or togo to superior cort and ask the judge to oredr them to hear my appeal.
My question is : Can I only pay them a principal amount of the original assesment from 1995 w/o interest and pennalties and appeal to them CUIAB like I am appeling for separate quarter/period only, because this is how they have thier statements brocken down by quarters.
Once I am able to get to them and hear me out , I am pretty sure I can argue the contractors were contractors not employees and then it will be the same for the entire liability that they made up.
My question is : Can I only pay them a principal amount of the original assesment from 1995 w/o interest and pennalties and appeal to them CUIAB like I am appeling for separate quarter/period only, because this is how they have thier statements brocken down by quarters.
A: No. The reason why is because all of these issues arose from the "same transactions or occurrences." When you bring an action to the Superior Court, there is a hard and fast rule that you cannot break up the action into little bites. You have to sue on the whole "bundle of rights" or you waive the right to sue on the claims you choose not to make (legally termed the doctrine of "res judicata" -- "already adjudicated"). So, if you make a part payment, then you are telling the court that your case is only about that portion of the claim, and that you are committing to pay the rest, because you cannot ask the court to consider that amount in its judgment.

Hopefully this hasn't already been covered in the forums or Wiki. I did some searching around, but found very little information. I'd like to do some cleanup on my Zimbra server to tidy things up a bit. There are two specific areas I am looking at:
A) Old versions of packages used by Zimbra - In the /opt/zimbra directory I have 4 amavisd-new directories, 7 clamav directories, 5 jdk directories, plus a couple of other packages that have two or three versions. Is it OK to simply remove the directories for the old versions that aren't currently in use?
B) Huge log files - I have two log files that are currently 2+ GB in size. The first is /opt/zimbra/log/zmmtacofig.log and the second is /opt/zimbra/db/data/<mydomain.com>.err. I did find some information in the forums about the first file, related to a log level that was set too high in one of the previous versions of Zimbra. That post seemed to indicate that it was OK to simply remove this file and it would be recreated; but I want to verify this. I couldn't find any information specific to the second file.
If there are any other areas of the system that I should look to cleanup I'd like to know about those at well, but for now I am focusing on these two areas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Since fundamentals are a little meaningless right now (income statements are as much opinion as they are fact, thanks to "one-time charges" that seem to be recurring), I've done quite well using a unique - and, perhaps, crude - method to find severely undervalued stocks.
IN PICTURES: 7 Forehead-Slapping Stock Blunders
Basically, I'm looking for industries that were beaten to a pulp since the middle of last year, but have been on a bullish roll very recently. The former says the stocks may be undervalued, while the latter says the problem is being corrected. Don't laugh; it works. I think the approach is spot on right now for aluminum stocks.
Cold, Cold, Cold, Hot, Hot...
Of the 200+ industries I follow, care to guess which one has the worst 12-month performance? The biggest losers are actually insurance companies, which are still in the hole by 81% going back to the end of April last year. However, aluminum stocks made a good showing in the race for last, with a 75% loss since the end of April 2008.
Now care to guess which group is up 47% since the end of March 2009? Aluminum stocks. More importantly (and based on a deep, deep drubbing prior to the renewed bullishness), the industry is experiencing a recovery trend with real legs... something that can't be said for too many emerging industry rallies. So far so good? Great, but keep reading.
The Worst Is Over
Nobody loves a wave of bullish momentum more than I, but I'm not naive enough to think a bad company can hoist its stock higher forever. Eventually, these stocks are going to have to prove their mettle. Before we examine any of these stocks deeply, I want to preface with this opinion: I think projected numbers assume the worst, while investors realize 2009 is going to be better than 2008. With that said...
There's little question that slumping commodity prices and weakened demand drove aluminum profits into the ground. A year ago, aluminum was priced around $1.30 per pound, and on the way up. By March of this year, aluminum cost less than 60 cents per pound, which doesn't leave much room for margin.
The Numbers Confirm It
Alcoa (NYSE:AA) managed to turn $26.9 billion of revenue into a $74 million loss in 2008, and Q1 of this year didn't look any better. Sales declined gradually over those five quarters, while gross profits were whittled away to almost nothing during the recently-reported quarter.
Aluminum Corporation of China's (NYSE:ACH) 2008 was almost a carbon copy of Alcoa's progressively worsening year. The company's 9.2 million RMB ($1.2 million) in profit attributable to shareholders in 2008 was almost comical compared to 2007's earnings of roughly 10.8 billion RMB ($1.3 billion). You get the idea.
There's a light at the end of the tunnel, however... a light some investors already are seeing.
Although still only about 68 cents per pound, aluminum's price trend is on the way up. At the same time, the economy's "green shoots" are real. Factor in a whopping $2.25 trillion worth of global stimulus, and the demand that could be fostered for aluminum could quietly become huge.
How so? Aside from the general rebirth of the consumer, China's stimulus specifically encourages the purchase of household appliances. A big chunk of France's stimulus will land in Airbus' lap. The U.S. stimulus hopes to prompt the sale of autos, but the bulk targets infrastructure projects. Each of those industrial arenas uses aluminum. (Mutual funds devoted to keeping roads, structures and communities safe can make you money. Learn how in Build Your Portfolio With Infrastructure Investments.)
Alcoa is expected to return to profitably within twelve months - an excessively pessimistic view in my book, given what we know as of now. Although I don't have any supporting information regarding the Aluminum Corporation of China, I assume profits are expected to return in the foreseeable future as well. Both could be big wins for buy-and-holders.
Greater Risk, Greater Payoff Potential
If you're looking for something a little spicier, however, take a look at Century Aluminum (Nasdaq:CENX) or Kaiser Aluminum (Nasdaq:KALU).
Century's getting no love from anyone in the forecasting business. Analysts don't expect a profit, even by 2010. But that doesn't quite jive with the 600%+ gain since mid-March through the close on May 7, does it? It's the most speculative of the bunch, but also the one with the biggest payoff potential.
Kaiser's first quarter numbers weren't as great as Q1's from 2008, but earnings of any size are an improvement to the company's mid-2008 results. Perhaps Kaiser is through the worst of the storm?
Bottom Line
Aluminum... not exactly on mainstream radars, but that "forgotten" aspect is what I like. (Find out which futures, options or funds will be your perfect commodity portfolio fit in How To Invest In Commodities.)

The department is now in its fifth year of a five year pre-accreditation process with AACSB—International, the premier accrediting agency for business programs around the world. Faculty efforts have been focused on the Self-Evaluation Report. This report summarizes our evaluation of ourselves in accordance with our defined mission and the criteria specified in the accreditation standards. It describes the department's mission, objectives, and the processes established to achieve such objectives, and provide evidence of the progress toward accomplishing the objectives and of the outcomes of these processes. This report, which serves as the basis of the peer review process, was submitted May 15th.
It is the responsibility of the peer review team to confirm achievement of the school's mission, as well as the effectiveness of continuous improvement processes consistent with AACSB standards. This team will be led by Dr. Robert A. Clark (Dean of the School of Business Administration at the University of Evansville) and includes Dr. Alicia J. Jackson (Dean of the Sigmund Weis School of Business at Susquehanna University), and Dr. Rita A. Jordan (Professor Emeritus of Management at the U.S. Air Force Academy). Their official visit is scheduled for October 18 – 21.
Dr. Clark, the peer-review team leader, made an informal pre-visit to VMI on April 22 – 24. While here, Dr. Clark met with the ECBU faculty and cadets as well as BG Schneiter, General Brower and General Peay. This visit, intended as an introduction, was quite helpful prior to submitting the Self-Evaluation Report and the official peer-review team visit this fall.

Dancing With The Stars
Why Meryl Davis and Maksim Chmerkovskiy Will Win Dancing With the Stars Season 18
The Dancing With the Stars Season 18 Mirror Ball trophy needs a forever home, and it will find it with one of these five couples: James Maslow and Peta Murgatroyd, Candace Cameron Bure and Mark Ballas, Charlie White and Sharna Burgess, Amy Purdy and Derek Hough, or Meryl Davis and Maksim Chmerkovskiy.
Each couple has a shot to win the spring 2014 season, for different reasons. Here are three reasons why Meryl and Maks could be the ones to take it home.
1. Meryl is the best dancer of the season. The "best" dancer doesn't always win DWTS, but a great dancer always does. Meryl is an extraordinary dancer. She has topped the leaderboard more than anyone else this season, and it's not hard to see why. She even stands like a ballerina princess! Yeah, she's a champion ice dancer, but so is Charlie, and she just has a little something extra. Besides, there were five athletes this season, plus young pop stars who dance choreography on stage, and others with previous dance experience. Meryl just shows it the most because she's a vision to watch. We love her with Maks but she and Val Chmerkovskiy were also stunning on Switch Up Week. She's equally strong in classy, sexy, emotional, and even "dirty" dances — and she makes them all look effortless, even though they aren't. When it comes to the Freestyle, Maks could throw anything at her and she would be able to pull it off as well as any pro.
2. Meryl and Maks bring out the best in each other. There are two champions every season — the star and the pro — and fans tend to vote for a strong team. There are a lot of great partnership this season, but M&M have a special spark. They have amazing chemistry, without forcing a showmance angle, and even Len Goodman noted how Meryl is the first celeb who can keep up with Maks.
Longtime fans have come to know Maks, at least on screen, and it's obvious how much he respects and admires Meryl and enjoys dancing with her. There's a new spring in his step. They look exquisite together on the dance floor and he's been able to show some great choreography because he knows he has a student who is not only up to the challenge, but pretty much his equal out there. He's less stressed than he usually is, and even that one week where he really felt the pressure, she showed her strength for him. She took his hand and talked him through his fears. Maks is still Maks, he'll always be passionate and outspoken, but she's thawing him bit by bit, like their own little Beauty and the Beast storyline playing out.
3. It's Maks's time. Even if Maks were dancing with Drew Carey, his loyal fans would push for him to win. But he's not dancing with Drew, he's dancing with the best. He's gotten close to winning before, and we thought maybe it would happen with Mel B or Erin Andrewsor Kirstie Alley, but he has never had a partnership like this before. And he knows it. Maks is not one of those pros who gets a strong (physically and emotionally) partner every season, so this feels closest to his moment. If he wins, it will be because he earned it — having learned the lessons he needed to and applied the knowledge he's gained from so many years with the show. If he doesn't win, well, he's still learned a lot and shown a lot of growth this season! That trophy is kind of funny-looking anyway.
Do you think Meryl and Maks will win this season?
DWTS Season 18 airs Mondays at 8 p.m. ET on ABC.

Technology and Storytellingriasharon
There are those who say that the web is dead, that blogs are dead, that social is maxing out. Maybe they are the same as those who predicted the death of books, magazines, radio and television. And yet, those are still here.
Instead of one medium replacing another in a linear continuum, we seem to have just added to our repertoire of media options. It feels a bit like what cable did to TV back in the 80's. We just have more channels! More channels for what? Stories.
The art of storytelling has remained unchanged since before the internet, since before the printing press, since before the written word — all groundbreaking technologies, really. Since members of our species were grunting at each other in caves, we were telling stories.
What technology has afforded us are platforms and audiences for our stories. You don't have to wait for your book to be published or until you host your own TV show. You can push publish any time. You can press record any time. If you have a good story, the audience will come. That's what social has proven.
I was watching this great TED Talk by Joe Sabia on technology and storytelling. He introduces us to a true innovator. That is one of the gifts of technology — it pushes us to innovate, to ask ourselves these questions: how do we tell our stories effectively? In what ways will we capture people's attention and their minds and hearts? Is it by harnessing the novelty of the latest and greatest technology? Is it using technology to fine tune our craft and our voice?
Are you using the technology effectively to tell your story?

"Business Time" with Mackenzee Pierce
December 28, 2011 · No Comments
Hot ass Mackenzee Pierce was in a meeting with her amazing tits popping out of her top. TJ could not concentrate at all and who could blame him? This girl is so fucking hot I'm having trouble writing this now. She crawls up on the table and starts feeling up on herself and getting wet. TJ walks over to her and Mackenzee lets him put his cock between her huge juggs and pump them hard. Fucking amazing! She bounces up and down on his cock and then takes a fucking gallon of cum on her tits!

So it's my birthday! Tommy invited me to come by his place before we went out to celebrate. When I got there I saw TJ with a camera. Hmm I'm a little suspicious. They brought me a cake and some balloons. These guys are so sweet. I hear it was all Tommy's idea and I wanted to thank him for it. But how? Well I was all dolled up looking quite sexy if I can say so and maybe I can use that to show him how much this meant to me. I saw him looking at my nice big boobs so I let him touch them! He squeezed and sucked my tits and I was beginning to get a bit excited…

Rebecca Linares' in Tetas Grandes
May 12, 2011 · No Comments
I picked up Rebecca Linares from the airport and we came back to my place for a bit before we went out. Rebecca was upstairs trying on all her sexy little outfits she could barely fit into because she has some huge amazing tits. They are crazy big and perfect. I peeked in the room while she was changing and watched as her tits bounced up and down as she was trying to put on some little short shorts. I was done watching and decided to get in there and get to work. She let me finger her on my couch and then I slipped my cock between her giant tits and pumped them hard. Rebecca has such an insatiable sexual appetite and it was my duty to try and satisfy her!

My old bike has a 48t large cog at the front. My new mtb has a 44t. I've been running the new one as my exercise bike as the old is worn out enough that I know it can't stand up to the stress of 250km a week.
I noticed though, that while the new bike being newer has better brakes, smoother suspension, etc the top speed down my favorite hill at maximum safe output for the road is only 47.5km/h compared to the 52 km/h I got on the old bike.
I suspect this is because the gear ratio is slightly lower making it better for climbing/slower speeds but not so good if you want to travel faster. I went to the LBS and they say it would be possible, but expensive to put a 48t in place of the 44.
So... is the net gain in speed actually worth spending $200-$300 on? I'm tempted just to do an n+1 and add a roadbike to my stable for the days I want speed...

Bummer. What's even sadder is that I thought he was already dead. RIP, Macho Man.
My favorite of all time.

He looks way different with a gray beard!

Sad to hear. He was one of the great characters in an era of great characters about 25 years ago when I really got into watching wrestling with my kids.
Best. Wrestler. Ever. The elbow drop from the top rope was classic.

Khloé Kardashian Odom Reveals Her Best Style Secret
The Kardashian sisters are known for both their style mishaps as well as their fashion prowess — and we love to see them dressed to the nines.
Perhaps the sister that has reinvented herself the most is Khloe Kardashian, who has recently slimmed down and is having no problem showing off her gorgeous curves.
At the Hypnotiq Glam Louder event in Los Angeles, Khloe revealed her biggest fashion secret. While she may have designer dresses, amazing accessories, and a stylish car, Khloe says a good, sexy pair of high heels is absolutely necessary to look pretty and polished at every event.
"I don't think a pair of great heels hurts anyone. That makes me feel glam and blingy," Khloe said, revealing her secret.
With her recent fashion choices, women everywhere should take note to Khloe's advice. This brunette beauty really knows what she's talking about!

AT&T trims FLO TV pricing to $10 per month
AT&T is poised to cut the monthly price of its FLO TV-powered AT&T Mobile TV premium broadcast service from $15 per month to $10. Gizmodo reports AT&T will introduce the pricing change on Nov. 8. At present, the $15/month Mobile TV Basic package offers AT&T subscribers access to 12 channels including CBS Mobile, CNBC, Comedy Central, ESPN Mobile TV, FOX Mobile, MTV, NBC2Go, Nickelodeon and CNN Mobile. There is no word on whether the operator plans a similar pricing cut for its Mobile TV Plus package, which costs $30 per month and adds unlimited mobile web browsing, video clips and data usage.
This summer, FLO TV president Bill Stone told The New York Times its current mobile TV package is too expensive, and price cuts are planned. According to Stone, the prices Verizon Wireless and AT&T charge subscribers for their FLO-powered mobile TV efforts are too steep: "My view is that is shooting over the heads of the market," he said, adding that FLO TV parent firm Qualcomm does not set the retail prices for services offered by its operator partners. In October, FLO TV introduced its own dedicated mobile TV device priced at $249.99, with subscription services beginning at $8.99 per month.

A combination of populism used with reckless abandon and economic shortsightedness has driven the state towards bankruptcy. In 1980-81, West Bengal produced 9.8 per cent of the industrial output produced in India; in 2009-10, it was only 4.32 per cent. Employment in the organised sector came down from 10.84 lakh to 5.72 lakh during the period. The culture of gheraos and strikes fuelled by power shortage gradually drove industry and capital away from this state, just as the intense politicisation of its once-famed academic institutions drove its talents away.
This decay continues unabated, signs of which had earlier metamorphosed into social and political turmoil. The state polity became dominated by violence and its governance by corruption. West Bengal became a party state that allowed no dissent, turning it into a vast instrument of coercion caught in a time warp where the clock of progress and flow of ideas almost came to a standstill. Finances were in a shambles with the state struggling to pay the salaries of its huge army of staff. Its growth plummeted and debt burden rose steeply.
The total outstanding debt liabilities of the state has mounted from a manageable level of Rs 1,441 crore or 20 per cent of the state income (GSDP) in 1977-78 to an astounding level of Rs 175,366 crore or 37 per cent of its GSDP at the end of 2010-11, rising annually by 15.66 per cent since 1977. The annual interest burden on this huge debt has increased from a modest Rs 73 crore to Rs 13,817 crore over this period. Almost two-thirds of the states own revenues are spent towards meeting the interest charges alone. But the sorry fact is that the state failed to use the debt resources for creating income generating capital assets, but used it almost wholly to repay the past debt and interest. Consequently, capital outlay in the state remained one of the lowest in the country. Even Bihar had a capital outlay almost four times that of West Bengal in 2010-11.
Other states also faced the debt problem, but they introduced fiscal discipline by enacting the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management Act (FRBMA) at the prodding of the Twelfth Finance Commission and, by reducing their revenue deficit side by side, managed to lighten their debt burden. But by refusing to enact the FRBMA till July 2010, West Bengal had forgone a debt relief amounting to Rs
