New Android apps worth downloading: Snapseed, Action Launcher Pro, Heroes of Order & Chaos
Make the best of your Android photography with Snapseed, a photo editor with filters to make them even cooler. Following that, we have Action Launcher Pro, an app launcher that keeps your Android device organized and clean. Finally, Heroes of Order & Chaos lets you get online and pummel players from all over the world with its fantasy hero characters.
Snapseed (Free)
What's it about? Photo app Snapseed is an editor for tweaking and improving your photos, or making them more creative.
What's cool? Snapseed combines a number of photo-editing features, like cropping and color adjustment, with an easy-to-use interface that makes tweaking your photos a snap. The app covers all the basics, from autocorrect to image tuning and also packs a lot of extra things like the ability to add borders and filters. You can also select smaller areas of a photo and adjust those separately from the rest of the image to highlight certain features or make more subtle changes. You can also share your finished products through social networks such as Facebook and Google+.
Who's it for? If you snap a lot of shots with your Android devices, Snapseed might be the app you need to make them look even better.
What's it like? For more photo capabilities, try PicsArt and PhotoWonder.
Action Launcher Pro ($3.99)
What's it about? Action Launcher is exactly what it sounds like: a launcher for your apps that's simple and quick.
What's cool? Launchers are all about speed and organization, and Action Launcher maximizes both with an extremely simple user interface. Action Launcher includes an "app drawer" feature that lets you keep your most-used apps close at hand, and a "Covers" feature that makes launching apps quick and easy without messing up the organization you have for your home screen. It also includes Play Store integration to make getting more apps, and keeping them organized, as easy as possible.
Who's it for? Android junkies serious about keeping their devices perfectly organized.
What's it like? For alternative launcher options, take a look at FlipLauncher and GO Launcher EX.
Heroes of Order & Chaos (Free)
What's it about? Gameloft has created a spin-off from its popular mobile massive multiplayer online game, Order & Chaos Online. This one is a "multiplayer online battle arena," or MOBA, title that has players squaring off against each other in battle.
What's cool? MOBA titles have players taking on the roles of powerful heroes to try to take one another down, while being backed up by generic minion fighters. In Heroes of Order & Chaos players team up to take on one another, and spend time honing their skills with different fighters, as well as improving their abilities through successful battles. You can play alone, or in games of 3-versus-3 or 5-versus-5, and additional hero characters are available through in-app purchases.
Who's it for? If you like MOBAs like League of Legends on PC, you should definitely try Gameloft's mobile take.
What's it like? Order & Chaos Online, the game that spawned Heroes, is worth a look for players who enjoy high-quality mobile titles.

David Ignatius: Lost in an earthbound cosmos
"I hate space," says the character played by Sandra Bullock in the new movie "Gravity," and you can understand why: It's an empty void, filled with the wreckage of failed satellites and derelict space stations, a beautiful nothingness where human beings float helplessly, praying for some way to get home.
Movies have a way of distilling moments in our culture, and "Gravity" may be the defining film for the lost-in-space year of 2013: Nothing works. Our political system is clogged with debris. We can't read the instruction manuals for rescue craft because they're in Chinese. If we think help is on the way, we're probably hallucinating because of oxygen deprivation.
I won't spoil the plot by telling you what happens to Bullock and the other characters in Alfonso Cuaron's marvelous film. But let's explore the dark vision this film captures so well: the terrifying sense of drifting untethered in the cosmos, tumbling out of control, turning desperately to support systems that fail, one after the other. The astronauts keep calling "Houston," but the reassuring voice of control that brought space travelers home in "Apollo 13" isn't there.
"Gravity" is a talky film, but as New York Times critic A.O. Scott has noted, the garrulous characters are really just trying to fill the terrible reality of silence. It's like watching cable TV while the federal government goes off a cliff. None of the pundits has a clue what's happening, but they keep up the chatter.
For a sense of how "Gravity" marks a distinct cultural moment, compare it to another iconic film about the cosmos, Stanley's Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey." That movie was also about being lost in space. Keir Dullea played an astronaut on a mission to Jupiter when the computer running his ship, known as "HAL," takes control. Dullea's character also finds himself adrift outside his capsule in the blackness of space, but he's drawn into a cosmic apotheosis that is a fable of rebirth and infinite life.
Kubrick's film was released in 1968, as American culture was heading over the lip of a waterfall. It was a time of political upheaval — the assassinations of Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr., the sudden withdrawal from the presidential race of Lyndon Johnson. Back then, outer space was still a blessed escape from all the terrestrial turmoil. The year after Kubrick's film was released came Neil Armstrong's landing on the moon. Things felt pretty crazy on earth in 1969, but the cosmos was friendly. Astronauts had round-trip tickets; they got home.
The world of 2013 is different: We don't even attempt manned space programs anymore. They are too expensive, and what's the point? Thank goodness for the plucky little Voyager I probe, which has just left the solar system, 36 years after it was launched, carrying sounds of earth, including a baby crying, a whale's song, and Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode."
But our sodden political dysfunction is tuning out the cosmos. Among the casualties of this month's government shutdown were many of the world's largest radio telescopes, operated by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory. Turned off because of lack of funds, they stopped listening for electromagnetic signals from other galaxies and planets. "We're really at a dead halt," the observatory's director Anthony Beasley told Science magazine.
The only aggressive space program these days, not surprisingly, is China's. Late this year, the Chinese plan to launch a lunar rover, called "Chang'e 3," which would be the first spacecraft to make a soft landing on the moon's surface in 37 years. The Chinese are planning a manned mission to the moon sometime after 2020, and subsequently, to Mars. The U.S. has abandoned that dream.

text: This is my first race as a member of MMTC, and my first race in four or five years. I signed up for Clyde's last Tuesday as a training run for the Baltimore 10-Miler in June. I didn't know what to expect from my time, but I was hoping to finish in under an hour. I showed up around 7:30, and after picking up my packed, I ran into some MMTCers milling around the race route map, but unfortunately lost track of everybody when I went into Lakeside Deli to warm up with a cup of coffee before the race. When I was lining up at the start of the race, I did meet up with one my husband's work friends and stayed with him throughout the race, which really helped me stay motivated and on pace. The course was hilly, but I felt like my training runs had prepared me pretty well. And although I was shivering at the start, it was actually a perfect morning for a run. I had an issue with my chip, but crossed the finish at 57:49, and the friend I ran with (and crossed just after me) had a chip time of 56:14. And the food afterward definitely lived up to its reputation. :)

The Faint: Wet From Birth
Wet From Birth
Saddle Creek Records
The Faint never cared much for subtlety. Whether their topic du jour was sex, the plight of oppressed laborers, or sex, you always knew what they were singing about. And since their lyrics were delivered over the danciest of dark electro beats, you usually didn't care.
The group's fourth album doesn't have such an easily pinned down theme, but it does make the pale pride of Omaha sound a little more self-aware. Within the first minute of "Desperate Guys," lead singer Todd Baechle is already revealing the secrets of his trademark pickup act: "I was acting indifferent at the merch booth putting on makeup."
The black eyeliner should be familiar to fans, and so is most of their new material. The prowling hipster on that first track has shown up on past albums. The growl and bounce of "Paranoiattack" makes references to duct tape and mysterious powder on envelopes. Though that track feels a little dated, the Faint try out a few new tricks on "Drop Kick the Punks," a dance-punk number that chooses guitars over synths.
The notably catchy "Southern Belles in London Sing," sounds like a Smiths cover punched up with violin interludes and a distant ghost chorus provided by Azure Ray. It's a shame that this album highlight is immediately followed by a song so embarrassingly gauche. "Erection" is an ode to the obvious, referring to their titular focus as "the sound of a sword," "the cock of a rifle," and "a monument in the park." Plus, once the arena-stomp beat reminds you of pedophiliac rocker Gary Glitter, you've got a whole new set of unpleasantries to think about.
But that's just one song. A little tactlessness is something the Faint thrive on, and Wet from Birth is uncharacteristically low in the vulgarity department. Unless, of course, you're grossed out by the mucus-covered bloodbath described in the title track, but come on, that's natural.

I agree, it sounds like you're body is getting ready to have the baby. You should go in, because 35 weeks is a tiny bit early. It's not too early to have the baby, but they should check things out before you get too far along. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!posted 02/20/2010 by Rainypm

Pfizer's popular smoking-cessation drug Chantix came under a hailstorm of controversy last week as dozens of blogs and online forums lit up with complaints about side effects associated with the medication, including disturbing dreams and depression.
The wave of accusations stemmed from an incident in September in which musician Carter Albrecht was shot to death by a neighbor after causing a commotion outside the neighbor's door. The drug was not officially tied to the murder, but Chantix users have taken to the Internet and are blogging about their experiences with the drug.
"After taking it for eight days, I suffered from severe depression and suicidal thoughts. I immediately stopped taking Chantix," wrote one Chantix user at lawprofessors.typepad.com back in July. "That has been since May, and I still suffer from bouts of severe depression."
Last week, FDA announced that it would be examining the situation and further reviewing the cases. It stated that alcohol might have played a part in the Albrecht case but that it would be investigating other reports.
"Chantix is one of those drugs that does well for Pfizer, and it's sort of disappointing that it has these side effects," said Les Fundleyter, healthcare strategist at Miller Tabak. "We don't have a lot of data right now to substantiate anything. However, the story is out there now and, in the best case, even if there isn't much to this story, it's still going to make people think twice about taking and prescribing Chantix."
A Virtual Megaphone One of the biggest problems right now is that the Internet has provided a megaphone for people to voice their concerns and problems with the medication. Even if Chantix isn't deemed unsafe, could the backlash from bloggers and forum posters badly damage the drug?
"Blogging can kill a brand if it is not responded to appropriately, but there are things that can be done," said Lisa Flaiz, VP and national pharma practice lead of interactive ad agency Avenue A | Razorfish. "The beauty and the curse of blogging and Web 2.0 in general is that pharma companies have to let go of their brand. It doesn't mean they can't respond—but when they do respond, they have to be careful that they respond with all the normal rules and regulations of promotion."
Calls to Pfizer were not returned as of press time.

Homeownership rate fell in fast-growing suburbs
Homeownership map
The housing downturn of the past decade left its mark on dozens of San Diego County neighborhoods, in some cases driving down homeownership levels in the region's fastest-growing suburbs while leaving many other areas largely untouched, new census data reveal.
From Eastlake and Otay Ranch in Chula Vista to upper middle-class enclaves like Carmel Valley and the southern portion of San Marcos, the proportion of households owning homes fell between 8 and 12 percentage points during a period when the overall rate for the entire county, at 54 percent, remained largely flat.
At the same time, San Diego's urban core, including downtown and the older neighborhoods that ring it, saw their rates of homeownership grow — in same cases as high as 14 percentage points — as redevelopment fueled new homebuying opportunities.
The latest decennial census numbers, released Thursday, offer a detailed look at how the mid-decade housing boom and subsequent bust played out in the county's still growing communities, as well as its largely built-out, revitalizing neighborhoods.
Early in the decade, when large swaths of suburban land were transformed into subdivisions, aspiring buyers flocked to the new housing tracts, only to find a few years later they owed far more on their mortgages than their homes were worth. The result was a spike in homes lost to foreclosure, leading to large numbers of homeowners who returned to renting.
"Even though we have very high homeownership rates in these suburbs and exurbs, almost every one of them is lower than it was in 2000, and that's the tragedy of this housing crisis," said John Weeks, director of San Diego State University's International Population Center. "The whole idea was that homeownership rates were supposed to go up, and the ultimate consequence was they went down."
In southeastern Chula Vista, home to the sprawling Otay Ranch community, the homeownership rate slid from 84 percent at the start of the decade to 72 percent by 2010, while the number of housing units more than tripled during that same period, according to an analysis of the census data.
Not coincidentally, Eastern Chula Vista also was an area that consistently had some of the highest rates of foreclosure in the county over the last couple of years.
In some instances, the fall in homeownership was driven by a growth in rental housing units, as was the case in Kearny Mesa, where many new apartments were built.
While more neighborhoods saw their homeownership rates decline, albeit modestly, than rise, there were a number of communities that seemed to weather the downturn with greater ease. Most notable was downtown San Diego and several nearby gentrifying neighborhoods. Downtown, where early in the decade construction cranes pierced the skyline as one condo high rise after another sprouted from asphalt lots, saw homeownership rise by 14 percentage points.
Nearby urban areas like Midtown, Normal Heights and North Park also realized relatively healthy homeownership gains as urbanites moved into new condos or purchased homes they subsequently renovated. The purchases, believes housing analyst Gary London, also relied far less on the kinds of risky loans taken out by many buyers ill-equipped to afford inflated housing prices.
"The demand for a lot of those ring neighborhoods are from more mature buyers with better means, and they purchased these condominiums with much lower loan amounts with more money down," said London.
That, however, was not the case for Audra Yerxa and her husband Brad, who are packing their belongings and moving to New Mexico with their twins after learning their two-bedroom townhome in Oceanside was sold in a foreclosure auction in May for $122,000. Just seven years earlier they had purchased their first home for $320,000.

As feature sizes in modern integrated circuits continue to decrease below 100 nm, the physics of conventional deep ultraviolet (DUV) optical lithography impose severe limitations. Past efforts to improve the resolution of lithography systems have been based upon reducing the wavelength of the light source. Current state-of-the-art lithography systems use a source wavelength of 193 nm. However, decreasing the wavelength below this level is problematic because at shorter wavelengths most materials become absorptive. Although much research has been done to develop 157 nm lithography tools, this has proven to be costly and difficult, and progress has been slower than expected.
Therefore, it seems that a "quantum leap" is needed in order to keep up with the relentless progress of Moore's Law. Extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography at a wavelength of about 13.5 nm has been proposed as a potential replacement for DUV lithography. In order to minimize problems with absorption, EUV lithography tools rely on reflective optics made of silicon/molybdenum multilayer mirrors instead of the refractive optics found in DUV systems. Early results have been encouraging [1], and this is now an area of active research.
A system for performing static lithographic exposures has been constructed at the Advanced Light Source at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory [2]. This system is currently being used to characterize new high numerical aperture optics and to explore issues related to the future manufacturing possibilities for EUV lithography. These issues include photoresist development, mask fabrication and defect problems, and improved modeling of the EUV exposure process. We wil be exploring these issues with emphasis on control and metrology to characterize and improve the EUV lithography process.

Canadian Lieutenant General Leslie Andrew Leslie recently noted that after Canada's deployment in Afghanistan ends in 2011, Canada's military may need a year to recover. The reason, as Ellen points out, is because Canada has been suffering 4 times the casualty rate of American troops in Afghanistan, because Canada's in one of the most dangerous provinces.
Of course, Fox panelist Doug Benson then mocked Canadians:
"I didn't even know that they were in the war," Benson said, adding he thought Canada was where someone went to avoid fighting.
No, Fox and the Republican party is where people go who avoid fighting. None of the panelists on the show appear to have ever served in the military.
Then Fox pundits made the suggestion that Canada leaches on the US for security:
"Would Canada be able to get away with this if they didn't share a border with the most powerful country in the universe?"
Here's a fact for Fox. There is only one country in the world which threatens Canada's security in any meaningful way. Only one country in the world which might be able to successfully invade Canada: that's the US.
Canada doesn't need the US to save it from anyone but the US. Sort of like protection money: "Such a nice country you have there. Be a shame if anything any happened to it."
Which is more or less what one panelist meant when he said:
"Isn't this the perfect time to invade this ridiculous country?" Gutfeld asked panelist Doug Benson.
I know many Americans don't think this way, but I get tired of the idea that Canada is some pacifist country. We joined both WWI and WWII sooner than Americans, and we took heavier losses per capita (see endnotes). Sure, we didn't fight in Vietnam or Iraq, but that's because neither country was any threat to us, or to our ally, the US. Fighting in unnecessary wars is deeply immoral and worse than being immoral is a mistake which weakens the countries which partake.
Why are we in Afghanistan and not Iraq? Because there is a least a case that Afghanistan harbored terrorists who attacked our NATO ally, the US. We're being a good ally. There was no credible evidence that Iraq was involved in 9/11, and we don't believe that when Fred hits you, you should attack Mary instead just because you don't like Mary and always wanted to beat her bloody.
For many years I have believed that Canada needs to revamp its military. Not to make it more of an expeditionary force, but to make it serve Canadians better. The main arm should be the Navy, supported by the Air Force, so we can defend our territorial waters. As for our army, they should be trained in insurgency/counter-insurgency. Officially, of course, the military upgrade would be so we could fight the colonial wars we keep getting dragged into by our entangling alliances. Unofficially the real reason would be because after Iraq, only a fool thinks the US isn't one demagogic politician and one disaster away from invading anyone it pleases, whether there's any good reason or not. Sound ridiculous? Well, 8 years ago would you have thought that if country X attacked the US, the US would use that as an excuse to attack country Y? Ridiculous is no longer a valid counterargument. The US was a rogue nation under Bush, I can see no reason to think it couldn't happen again. And Canada has a lot of oil.
If the US invades, Canada can't beat it on the open battlefield. But Canada is a big place, perfectly designed for guerrilla warfare.
But really, Canada and the US have been allies and friends for a long time, and I'm proud we've helped in Afghanistan. Hopefully relations will stay good. But when Fox is the top viewed news network in a country and spewing this sort of hate, one sometimes wonders.
Read Ian Welsh at ianwelsh.net
In WWII Canada had 1.1 million men serving and lost 45,364. The total population of the country in 1945 was 12,072,000. Canada thus had a per capita loss rate of .376%. America's death rate in WWII was .21%.
In WWI Canada had 64,944 military casualties in a total population of 7.2 million. The per capita death rate was thus a wopping 0.9%. The US lost 53,402, in absolute numbers less, and the casualty rate was .054%.
In WWI the US entered the war on April 6th, 1917. Canada had been at war since August 14th, 1914. (Granted, Canada had no choice in the matter as it had to go to war when Britain did, but it didn't have to send as many men as it did. Granted, also, that there's a strong argument that the US should not have entered WWI, which was not a war about any great principles or against any great evil, despite the propaganda at the time.)

Trinidad James' "All Gold Everything" was one of the biggest hit records of 2012, helping to propel the rapper into the spotlight. But where did that hypnotizing beat come from?
In a recent interview with Vlad TV, Too Short sat down to talk about his song "I Luv," which is claimed to be slowed-down sample for Trinidad's "All Gold Everything." He says he didn't even know about the song until he looked up his own single.
"At one point I went to look up the video that's out now, the new version, and mine popped up right next to it so somebody knows something," Too Short said. "Fourteen years later I'm just checking it out and the 'All Gold Everything' song comes on and it was the first time I ever heard it and I was like, 'Whoa,' because it's very distinct."
Too Short says that he too got inspiration from music that was released before his time and is fine with Trinidad James using his song. "I can't tell you how many times I've turned to Parliament Funkadelic for inspiration and actually just outright and replayed or sampled a song," he said. "As long as we take care of everything properly it's all love."
The West Coast rapper most recently teamed with E-40 to release a pair of collaborative albums, History: Mob Music and History: Function Music. The former bowed at No. 71 and the latter at No. 62, selling 5,700 and 6,500 copies, respectively.

The Housewives Of Beverly Hills And Miami Collide Amid Rumors Of Infidelity
November 12, 2013 06:00 PM by Suzy Kerr
Oh snap! Things got real last night on Watch What Happens Live, and this time it didn't just involve one zip code of Housewives. On Andy Cohen's talk show, Brandi Glanville of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills took on The Real Housewives of Miami's Joanna Krupa, and it wasn't pretty. In the segment, Brandi nonchalantly spills the beans about a fling Joanna allegedly had with Yolanda Foster's ex-hubby, Mohamed Hadid. I'll give you one guess who got a lil' pissy about about that announcement.
It all started when Andy began talking about the contentious Miami reunion where "bombs were dropped like panties at a Nelly concert." Yep, he really said that. Anyway, at the reunion, Joanna Krupa was accused of being part of the reason The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' Yolanda Foster and Mohamed split up. Joanna denied it, but during Andy Cohen's show last night, Brandi just laid it out. "Joanna had sex with Mohamed," she told a shocked audience. When Andy asked if that's what caused Yolanda and Mohamed to end things, Brandi replied, "It was one of many affairs, it's not THE exact situation." She then added, "But Mohamed and Yolanda are great now."
Naturally, Joanna couldn't take an accusation like that lying down, and during the show, she tweeted, "No wonder her husband left her." Ooh, sick burn Krupa, but c'mon, you're going up against Brandi Glanville. You gotta do better than that. Here's a suggestion: just say Leann Rimes is a wonderful mother.
After the show, there were denials right and left, coming from both Joanna and Mohamed. Mohamed to his anger to Twitter, where he wrote, ""[That's] such a lie … I don't talk like that … disgusting … pure lies." He denied ever talking to Brandi about the matter, and then sent a shout-out to Yolanda. "I love you mother of my children and my best friend," he tweeted.
So what gives? Do you think Joanna caused the infidelity drama on The Real Housewives of Miami or is Brandi full of it? Let us hear it in the comments!

Ungari: Porajmos
Parempoolsed omakohtunikud võtsid üle romide naabruskonnadesqk 31 Mar 2011 16:46 GMT (translated by desqk)
kontrolli romide naabruskonna üle Gyöngyöspata küla lähistel ning moodustasid romidest elanike majade ümber inimeketi. Rahvavalvet toetab parempooolne Jobbiku partei. Rahvavalve kavatseb nüüd moodustada rühmitused ka muudes Ungari linnades, et oma patrullide ulatust laiendada.
Euroopa Romide Õiguste Keskus, Amnesty International ja HUman Rights First saatsid Ungari võimudele kirja [PDF] milles palusid toimuvasse sekkuda ning Gyöngyöspata romidest elanike neile alates 01. märtsist osaks langenud ähvarduste ja ahistamise eest kaitsta.
Szebb Jövõért Polgárőr Egyesületi patrulle on toetanud poliitiline partei Jobbik, mis organiseeris 06. märtsil ka tuhandete musta vormi kandnud inimeste marsi läbi küla.
ERÕKi andmetel on Ungaris aastail 2008 - 2010 romide vastu toimunud vähemalt 48 rünnakut, mis on põhjustanud ka vähemalt üheksa surmajuhtumit. Romivastaste omakohturühmituste püsiv kohalolu romidega asustatud naabruskondades suurendab rahvuste vahelisi pingeid ning soodustab vägivallaõhkkonda.
ERÕK kutsus Ungari võime täitma oma siseriiklike- ja rahvusvahelisi kohustusi kaitsta inimõigusi Gyöngyöspatas ning viivitamatult sekkuma, et olukord ei jõuaks füüsilise vägivallani ning et romidest asukad oleks ähvarduste ja ahistamise eest kaitstud.

There's always a 'reason' for harassment. That doesn't mean it's a good or justifiable one!

These Vivilantes Must be Purged
Anonymous 28.Apr.2011 09:32
These vigilantes must be 'purged' from the face of the earth, where ever they exist, and so must the American police-ideology that created them, 'globally.' There has been 'no' point in history when such groups have 'not' become death-squads. That's why they are called 'lynch-mobs' historically. Look at groups such as the "Regulators" for your answer. There is no other choice than to get-rid of them all-together. They should be harassed at work, when they go shopping, or doing their laundry, by their neighbors, and in their homes. They should be driven from their homes and their employment and then denied emergency services to the homeless, such as food, clothing and shelter, as this 'is' what they do to others, both individually and as a group.

Your opinion is obviously formed by the distorted point of view of the international press. In many villages and city neighborhoods in Hungary there are several Romani families who are in constant clash with majority culture. They usually have very large families, don't work, aren't educated enough, live on welfare and when they steal the property of law-abiding citizens, those citizens are told by their own government that they should just turn the other cheek and that Roma people only steal because otherwise they would starve (did I mention that the Roma get generous sums of money, basically their whole living is financed by taxpayers? Still we just have to let them take what we buy with the 50% of our salary that's left after taxes?)

I think there are a few things that need point out here, the main one is; neither side in this case is right. Neither the community vigilantes or the Roma, but we do need a solution to this problem, because Roma in X country is not just X's problem, it is European problem mainly. Issues with Roma people exist all over Europe to the countries I have been to and I have seen it first hand account. These problems of course, are because of the lack of integration in society, this is why they turn to crime, drugs, etc etc etc. Their children do not have the same chances as others in school and the adults cannot get a job because nobody employs them, regardless of school certificates or grades they are virtually undesirables in many, if not every country I have been to. Again, due to the lack of integration, they are then turned away by society. Common stereotypes then evolve in the media as 'troublesome people' etc, they become misrepresented. You should definatley check out this article: http://euobserver.com/881/28737 (about Roma education policies) and http://euobserver.com/851/113796 about Bulgarian protests

Hey, Hungarians, you are not alone. These mafia guys think they will go unopunished because they enjoy support of those leftist idiots. Why does no one stand up for the intimidated Hungarians, eh? Here in Poland Gypsies commit plenty of fraud and rthe prosecution do nothing because they are afraid of their mafias. Take care and hold on, Hungarians. We are with you!
They are not the bad guys here....
A Hungarian 01.Nov.2011 00:33
I just wanted to point out that the situation is nearly unbearable in that region because of the brutal attacks carried out by the Gypsies. The so called vigilantes protect the real Hungarian citizens who work for the society (including the gypsies who do not work). Moreover on the basis of the article 48 attacks were carried out against the Romanis.... Come on.... The number of the attacks carried out BY the Romanis is at least 30! times more..... ( http://kuruc.info/r/35/44764/) - (Who knows Hungarian, but the number is understandable for everyone)

Does anyone have any insight on what the returning players think of the hire? I'd think that they would be pumped.

They should thrive and have NFL aspirations even higher than before.
I am guessing the we can put to rest rumors of players leaving now?

Gonzalez takes Assembly post
SACRAMENTO Moments after being sworn in to the Assembly Tuesday, longtime San Diego union activist Lorena Gonzalez left little doubt her loyalties will lie with organized labor.
"I am proud to be a worker advocate, I am proud to be a single mother. I am proud to be an organizer. And I am most proud to be joining all of you in the Assembly," said Gonzalez in remarks on the floor as her two children stood by her side.
Gonzalez took the oath a week after a convincing special election victory over fellow Democrat Steve Castaneda, a former Chula Vista city councilman. Following the win, she stepped down as chief executive director of the San Diego-Imperial Counties Labor Council — a coalition of 130 unions and about 200,000 workers.
Gonzalez also recognized her father, Roberto Gonzalez, who was in the gallery as she spoke.
"I just can't imagine what my father must be feeling," she said, recalling how he immigrated 40 years ago as a farmworker "hoping to have the opportunity to do a little bit more for his family than he would be able to do in Mexico."
Gonzalez has a daunting task ahead as she scrambles to become quickly versed on some tough and complicated measures that will be up for votes in the coming few weeks — not the least of which is the state budget and its accompanying controversies.
"I feel a responsibility to just dive in and figure out what I will be voting on," said Gonzalez, whose election solidifies a huge Democratic majority in the Assembly.
Gonzalez downplays that margin when asked if she expects to cast the deciding vote on taxes, which must be approved by a two-thirds margin.
"What taxes?" she said, aware that Democrat leaders have been trying to resist revenue increases out of fear of a voter backlash.
Gonzalez said she has no set plans for her own legislation. "I will probably be voting on 430 bills in the coming weeks that have gone through the process. Right now I am thinking about nothing but trying to understand those bills," she said.
But true to her union roots Gonzalez has a priority bill, just not her own.
Assembly Bill 880 is known among labor leaders as closing the "Walmart loophole" regarding employee health care. It would impose financial penalties on companies with a payroll of larger than 500 from cutting worker pay and benefits to a point where their medical coverage is picked up by the state through Medi-Cal. It was awaiting action on the Assembly floor Tuesday.
Gonzalez could be tested when state workers make their case for a pay raise after years of going without a basic cost-of-living increase and subjected to unpaid furloughs. Brown will negotiate the contracts, which must be ratified by lawmakers.
"I support workers and the governor working it out at the bargaining table," said Gonzalez when asked if she would vote for state pay hikes.
Critics expect Gonzalez will be a loyal vote for Democrat priorities, from taxes to business regulations to worker protections.
"The voters eliminated the middleman. They elected a union official directly to the Legislature," said consultant Kevin Dayton, president of Labor Issues Solutions, who has had his share of run-ins with Gonzalez involving San Diego building issues, including the Convention Center downtown.
"She's very aggressive and she's obviously a true believer. We found her to be very derisive of anyone who opposed the union agenda … She talks about jobs, but it all revolves around union jobs," he added.
On a central budget issue, Gonzalez said she supports providing extra revenues to schools with large numbers of student from low-income families or who do not speak English well. But she wants to study the alternatives before fully embracing a broader school funding package advocated by Gov. Jerry Brown.

Financial Reporting Update Issue 73 �C November 2013
Commencement date of new Hong Kong Companies Ordinance: 3 March 2014
25 November 2013
Briefing Note 1 ��What��s new for full financial statements?��
Briefing Note 2 ��What��s new for directors�� reports?��
Briefing Note 3 What��s new for share capital?��
Briefing Note 4 ��Non-Public Company Reporting Exemption: impact on directors�� reports and financial statements��
Companies Registry specific topic page
As you may already be aware, the Hong Kong Administration is now moving into the final stages of preparation for the introduction of a new Companies Ordinance (CO). This is an entirely new Ordinance, to be identified as Chapter (Cap.) 622 of the Laws of Hong Kong, and will supersede the majority of the existing Companies Ordinance, Cap. 32.
A key milestone was reached recently, with the announcement that the commencement date of the new CO is set as 3 March 2014. This notice is subject to negative vetting by the Legislative Council but is expected to be cleared without change before the end of this month.
What will happen on 3 March 2014?
Assuming the commencement notice passes without change, on 3 March 2014 the whole of the new CO will come into operation with only two main areas of exception. These exceptions relate to the deferral of the provisions in the new CO for:
�� the controversial question of the protection of directors�� usual residential addresses and identity card numbers; and
�� the paperless holding and transfer of shares and debentures.
This means that the CO currently in force (i.e. Cap. 32) will automatically become the ��predecessor Ordinance�� as from 3 March 2014 in accordance with section 2 of the new CO and the provisions of the new law will apply in most cases instead1.
In this respect, it is important to note that the new CO specifically contains provisions aimed at ensuring as smooth a transition as is reasonably possible. These include the following:
�� The new CO contains a specific schedule, Schedule 11, which sets out detailed transitional and saving provisions which deal explicitly with how arrangements set up under the existing CO (Cap. 32) will transition through under the new CO. For example, section 44 of Schedule 11 confirms that any redeemable shares issued before the commencement of the new CO may be redeemed after 3 March 2014 in accordance with the requirements of the new CO (which
are less onerous than those under the existing Cap. 32).
�� In addition, Schedule 11 contains deeming provisions to assist with the smooth transition of new requirements which apply automatically to all Hong Kong incorporated companies as from 3 March 2014. For example, section 40 of Schedule 11 covers how any references in contracts to par value or nominal value should be interpreted after the commencement date of the new CO when such concepts will be abolished.
�� In accordance with section 358 of the new CO, the requirements of
Part 9, which relates to the preparation of audited annual reports by companies, are only effective for the first annual reporting period beginning on or after 3 March 2014.
This means that the first annual reports to be affected by Part 9 of the new CO will be those from companies with a 31 March year end, with Part 9 first impacting on these companies�� financial statements for the year ending 31 March 2015. For those with a calendar year end, the impact will be on annual reports for the year ending 31 December 2015.
In addition, the Administration is taking steps to assist companies in the transition. For example, the Companies Registry will allow a transitional period of three months from 3 March 2014 during which time it will continue to accept most existing forms �C this is confirmed in Companies Registry External Circular No. 2/2013 (issued 1 November 2013), which sets out a complete list of the 92 new or updated forms which will apply under the new CO. The Circular identifies just 5 specific forms which will cease to be acceptable immediately from 3 March 2014, and one form which will cease to be acceptable after eight weeks.
What changes will the new CO introduce?
The Administration��s overall objectives for the re-write of the CO are to modernise Hong Kong��s company law and to further enhance Hong Kong��s status as a major international business and financial centre.
In addition to initiatives directed specifically at modernising the law, the Administration focused on specific initiatives intended to:
�� enhance corporate governance;
�� ensure better regulation; and/or
�� facilitate business.
These initiatives cover a range of specific matters relating to directors�� conduct, company administration and interaction with shareholders. For example, from a financial reporting perspective these initiatives include the following:
�� Relaxing the eligibility criteria for simplified financial reporting (referred to as the ��reporting exemption�� in the new CO), such that more non-public entities will be eligible for relief from the requirement to follow Hong Kong Financial Reporting Standards (HKFRSs) as issued by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA)
�� Introducing a requirement for companies not eligible for the reporting exemption to include an analytical and forward-looking business review in their annual directors�� report
�� Introducing a no-par value share capital regime which is mandatory for all companies in order to retire the out-dated concepts of par (or ��nominal��) value and share premium
�� Providing greater flexibility over the management of share capital, by simplifying the process by which statutory capital may be reduced by a solvent company, and introducing a new court-free procedure whereby two or more solvent companies within the same group may be amalgamated
�� Updating terminology in the new CO to align more closely with terminology used in HKFRSs and otherwise more generally giving statutory backing to HKFRSs and reducing the level of additional disclosure on financial matters set out in the new CO
�� Expanding the scope of disclosure of directors�� benefits to capture a greater range of non-monetary or indirect benefits, particularly for public companies and those non-public companies not eligible for the reporting exemption
What information is available to help us prepare?
As mentioned, the new law introduces a wide range of specific changes relating to directors�� conduct, company administration and interaction with shareholders. It is important that you involve experts in these areas to help you through this transition, whether these experts are in-house or your external advisers.
As part of our contribution to that process, KPMG has developed a series of briefing notes, each of which focuses on a specific topic relating to financial reporting and highlights areas of change and potential implementation issues that companies need to be aware of. The topics we have focused on to date relate to:
�� full financial statements;
�� directors�� reports;
�� the changes that affect share capital; and
�� the simplified financial reporting regime.
These briefing notes are intended to be a practical reference source for the transition period and beyond, as well as providing an easy way to find the relevant sections and regulations in the new CO. Copies can be obtained from your usual KPMG contact or by following the link in the information column to the right.
If you need any further information you are welcome to contact us. However, we also recommend that you take a look at the specific topic page on the Companies Registry��s website. Here you can find a wide range of useful information introducing the new CO published by the Administration, such as:
�� an overview of all the major initiatives introduced in the new CO;
�� briefing materials on each of the 21 parts of the new CO and the pieces of subsidiary legislation;
�� a table of origin (which sets out section by section where the sections in the new CO have come from);
�� a table of destination (which sets out whether the sections in the existing CO (Cap. 32) have been carried forward into the new CO and if so, to where); and
�� answers to frequently asked questions.
This thematic section is being updated on a regular basis for new material from the Registry. For example, slide decks of the presentations that the Companies Registrar and her team have been presenting to members of the various professional bodies in Hong Kong are uploaded after each event and, as from 1 February 2014, the site will provide downloadable copies of all of the new forms.
However, it should also be remembered that the new CO is a comprehensive re-write of the language of the law. This means that the devil is very much in the detail when it comes to identifying exactly what impact the new requirements will have on individual companies.
This may be the case even where at first sight it appears that the provisions of existing law are to all intents and purposes carried forward. Therefore, whenever working with the new CO, care needs to be taken in order to avoid misunderstandings or omissions. In particular, if needing to apply the law in practice, we would recommend you to:
�� refer directly to source, rather than relying solely on summaries;
�� read around the section, schedule or regulation in question and follow any cross-references through, in order to fully understand their implications;
�� take care to identify the latest version of the legislation �C this applies in particular when referring to subsidiary legislation, which can be relatively easily amended by the Administration; and
�� whenever in doubt, seek legal advice.
If you would like further assistance on any of the matters discussed, please feel free to talk with your usual KPMG contact. However, please also note that many of the matters discussed in this update are primarily legal matters and if in doubt, expert legal advice should be sought.
1 The new CO (Cap. 622) supersedes the majority of the existing CO (Cap.32). The exceptions are the provisions in the existing Cap. 32 which relate to corporate insolvency, prospectuses and disqualification of directors, receivers and managers. These parts of Cap. 32 which are not covered by Cap. 622 will continue to remain in force for the time being under the new title of the ��Companies (Winding up and Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance��. The details of this change can be found in Schedule 9 to Cap. 622.
