Hi Elizabeth.....so nice to be here, its been nutty and I wasnt here for a few days, what a wonderful and yummy thing to visit! I love peaches and anything literally that has them in them. This I must try and what better time than when they are in season! Yes, we too have had a few ultra hot days, not my thing, makes me wilt a bit. I will happily take 70's and no humidity:)
ReplyDeleteElizabeth, this looks delicious! I have made a peach pie in the past and it was really good. Recently I made "Eton Mess," a dessert with meringues, raspberries, and whipped cream. I served it for lunch in my garden, and everyone loved it. The recipe is from Ina Garten. Have a wonderful day!
Thank you for coming to visit Pine Cones and Acorns. Your comments are greatly appreciated. Although I try to come to visit every blog that comments sometimes I just do not get the chance, but I do try to comment here.

Highlighting Reports
Analysis of data stored in Tables and providing resultant information in the form of Reports to the outside world is an important function of any Database Management System.
An Access Application may contain several Tables logically related but maintained separately for easier handling. When it is time to prepare Reports related tables are selected and joined on common information in them, filtered and placed the output on Reports. Meaningful and timely Reports play a very important roll in decision making.
Report designing is an Art in its own merit, like Form designing. MS-Access is equipped with excellent Report Designing Tools and with little practice you can master it.
We have been asked to prepare a report on the Company's Sales Team, to review their monthly Sales Target Achievement. A mandatory Target Amount of $100,000 is fixed on each member of the Team and the Management wants a month-end Report to review his or her performance. The management focuses on the performance of the Sales Team every month and if any member of the Team lags behind the Target, they have to undergo a postmortem to set things right for the future.
We have prepared a sample Report on the Sales Team's Month-end figures, highlighting cases that didn't meet the stipulated Target Amount of $100,000, with a red circle around them.
The finished Report image is given below:
The tabular Report above is designed with the Report Wizard and nothing special about it except highlighting of Values less than $100,000 with a circle around them. A small VB Routine in the Detail_Print() Event Procedure compares value on each row with the target figure of $100,000 when the printing/print previewing is in progress and if any of them is less than $100,000 then draws a red circle around that Value.
To prepare this report we need two Tables from the Northwind.mdb database. If you are not sure where the file can be located, visit the earlier Post: Saving Data on Forms not in Table for the location reference of the Northwind.mdb database. Import the following two Tables from the Northwind.mdb database.
- Orders
- Order Details
- Click on the Query Tab in the Database Window.
- Click New to create a new Query and click Close button on the Show Table dialog control to close it without selecting a Table from the list.
- Click on the Toolbar button with the SQL label on it to display the Query's SQL Window.
- Copy and paste the following SQL String into the SQL window and save it with the Query Name: SalesReportQ0.
SELECT Orders.OrderID, Orders.EmployeeID, [Order Details].UnitPrice, [Order Details].Quantity, [UnitPrice]*[Quantity] AS Extended_Price FROM Orders INNER JOIN [Order Details] ON Orders.OrderID = [Order Details].OrderID;
- Go through steps 2 & 3 above, to create another Query from the source data of the first Query SalesReportQ0, Copy and Paste the following SQL String into the Query's SQL Window and save it with the Name:SalesReportQ
SELECT SalesReportQ0.EmployeeID, Sum(SalesReportQ0.Extended_Price) AS Total FROM SalesReportQ0 GROUP BY SalesReportQ0.EmployeeID;
- Click on the SalesReportQ Query and select Report from the Insert Menu. Select Auto Report: Tabular on the Report Wizard and make changes to the design to look like the sample image given below:
- Click on the Total Field and display the Property Sheet. Change the following Property Values:
- Name : Total
- Border Color : 12632256
- Display the VB Module of the Report, click on the Code Toolbar Button above or select Code from View Menu.
- Copy and paste the following Code into the VB Module of the Report:
'Global declaration. 'The next line (Dim MinTarget As Double, curVal As Double) 'must be placed just below the Option Compare Database line ' (and Option Explicit line, if present) at top of the Form Module. Dim MinTarget As Double, curVal As Double Private Sub Detail_Print(Cancel As Integer, PrintCount As Integer) ' Draw ellipse around controls that meet specified criteria. Dim ctl As Control, ctl2 As Control, intPrintCircle As Boolean Dim sngAspect As Single, sngYOffset As Single Dim intEllipseHeight As Integer, intEllipseWidth As Integer Dim sngXCoord As Single, sngYCoord As Single On Error GoTo Detail_Print_Err MinTarget = 100000 curVal = Me![Total] If curVal < MinTarget Then intPrintCircle = True Else intPrintCircle = False End If 'slightly increase/decrease this value 'to adjust the oval shape. sngAspect = 0.3 'Determine height and width of ellipse. intEllipseHeight = Me.Total.Height intEllipseWidth = Me.Total.Width sngYCoord = Me.Total.Top + (intEllipseHeight \ 2) Set ctl2 = Me.Total If Not IsNull(ctl2) Then Set ctl = ctl2 'Determine coordinates of ctl and draw ellipse. If intPrintCircle Then sngXCoord = ctl.Left + (intEllipseWidth \ 2) Me.Circle (sngXCoord, sngYCoord), intEllipseWidth \ 2, RGB(255, 0, 0), , , sngAspect intPrintCircle = False End If End If Detail_Print_Exit: Exit Sub Detail_Print_Err: MsgBox Err.Description, , "Detail_Print" Resume Detail_Print_Exit End Sub
- Save the report with the Name: Sales Report.
- Open the report in Print Preview to see how it works. The Circle is drawn based on the size of the Total Textbox. If the control is too wide then upper and lower parts of the elliptical shape may not appear within the control boundary. To correct this problem you can reduce the width of the Total Field, if it is too wide, or you may reduce the value in sngAspect = 0.3 in the program into say 0.25. You may increase or decrease this value and try out to perfectly fit the elliptical shape within the textbox boundaries.
If you prefer Color Coding the Sales Values, rather than struggling with the above technique, then there is an easier way to do it known as Conditional Formatting (MS-Office 2000 or later).
Let us say, we want all values above $100,000 should appear in Green Color, below $100,000 in Red and all $100,000s should print in normal Color. Sample image is given below:
- Make a copy of the Sales Report and delete the Code from the VB Module.
- Click on the Total textbox in Design View.
- Select Conditional Formatting. . . from the Format Menu.
- Set the conditions and the Color as shown below:
- After setting the first condition click Add>> to expand the control down to set more conditions. Up to three conditions you can set on the same field with different Formats. After setting the values click OK to save the changes.
- Open the Report in Print Preview to display the Values in different colors based on the conditions that we set on the control.
There are situations that we cannot use the conditional formatting method and need to go by the drawing the elliptical shape method. In both examples given above we are comparing individual values to a constant ($100,000) and then draws a circle or changes color with conditional formatting.
Assume that we are running a Service Station and we have Service Contracts with Companies for servicing their vehicles regularly for a certain period of time or the Vehicle's Odometer reading reaches a certain level. Till that time the Vehicle comes for servicing on a fixed interval of 3 months or after every 5000 KMs etc.
The management asks us to prepare a Report on all Vehicles on Service Contracts showing Date of Service, Odometer Reading & the Expenses. The Report is sorted on Service Date and if there is any Odometer recording found in Error (i.e. the meter reading is recorded less than the earlier service-time recording) that must be highlighted on the Report to quickly identify them for investigation. It can be tampering of the meter or it can be recorded wrongly by the Servicing personnel. In either case it should be highlighted.
In this case, we have to compare each value with the previous meter reading and if the current value is found less than the previous one then it must be highlighted with a circle. There may be repetition of lesser values further then we have to continue putting circles around all those values till we reach a value greater than the one that we are holding as key. In these kind of situations the conditional formatting method cannot be used.

They were very friendly and made everything so easy. Apartment could not have a better location. Three minutes walking to the subway station that takes you to Manhattan. A good variety of shops, restaurants and places to have a drink.
The apartment was well equipped and functioned very well. The apartment is placed in Williamsburg which is a lively and special neighborhood with good restaurants and cafes - not overpriced.We had a good time in the apartment.
Grazioso,caratteristico e pulito appartamento al primo piano in tipica palazzina fine 800 (credo) con scala esterna . Il nostro contatto , la signora Landa , è stata molto ,disponibile, puntuale e gentile. Ottima posizione in un quartiere giovane e alternativo.
5 minuti a piedi e sei alla metro per Manhattan oppure......suggeriamo.... 5 min. a piedi al ferry boat da cui godrete fantastica vista su tutta Manhattan.
Andate alla passeggiata sul molo di notte lungo la north 6 e vi apparirà una visione che non dimenticherete più!.
Abbiamo dormito benissimo nel più assoluto silenzio.....cosa importante dopo frenetiche giornate a Manhattan!
Comentarios de otras propiedad de este anfitrión
Buen alojamiento. Situación estupenda. Habitación limpia y cómoda. La anfitriona muy simpática y disponible a ayudar si necesario. Recomendable.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
We stayed there for 6 nights and everything was perfect from the begining. Landa was beautiful and helpful!! The room and bathroom were extremly clean and the views are simply breath taking!! Highly recommend the experience, top!
We stayed here for 9 days around New Years Eve and we were really excited. The room is exactly as per description. Serran and Landa are very friendly and kind hosts, we felt very welcome.
The view from the window is breathetaking and a lot of interesting things you want to see in the city is just a short walk away.
The appartment is very clean and it has all you need.
We would stay there again, always.
Thank you
We found the flat was really nice and clean, the room had everything we needed (iron, hairdryer, body lotion ...) the bed very comfortable and a stunning view !
The location was just great, round the corner of the 5th Avenue and the Empire State Building ! and our host was very nice ! I can only recommend this address in the heart of Manhattan !
Clean room, good location
My daughter (14) and I (50) had a great time in New York having been stayed in this marvelous room. The view from the window (24th floor!) over rooftops and to some sky scrapers is beautiful - every day. Located at the foot of the Empire State Building it is perfect to start sight seeing in Mid Town. Subway stations are well reachable, too.
The room is small, but provides everything you need for accommodation and little breakfast in the morning. The whole apartment is extraordinarily clean, including bathroom and kitchen to be shared. The bed is absolutely comfortable. Staying in this room is the best alternative to a hotel, or even better because there is less moving by other guests. It is quiet and relaxing at night and you enjoy complete independence from the host. All instructions needed are provided in time. Absolutely highly recommended for city visit!

Return to Splash and Splatter for My Birthday
Journal Size
It's dark - dark - dark!!! outside with the rain sluicing across the roads, beating the roofs and generally making quite a mess outside. It took longer to get to the office this morning from my friend's home with such heavy rainfall and flooding roads ---
Thank you for your kind comments yesterday and the surprise cards and notes to celebrate my birthday today -- THANk YOU -- truly!
Our Plant a Row volunteers will have a potluck today to celebrate both my birthday and my assistant's who celebrates her birthday tomorrow. My sweet husband has prepared pistachio gelato for the group, and after an early morning of meetings, the lunch will be a lot of fun --
Again, thank you all from the bottom of my heart!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I hope the rain and the flooding doesn't spoil it for you. I saw a clip on the flooding near Wilmington this morning.
This is really lovely!!! You do so well with the splash and splatter. This is one of the techniques I have to try.

Oh me, we should be "gifting" you instead of receiving this most beautiful of your splash and splatters. Gorgeous. You have really outdone yourself on this one and you surely must keep and frame it to enjoy every day. It's stupendous.
Wishing you the very happiest of birthdays and year ahead to the best friend I could ever have.
Big hugs and much love,
Celebrate hugely!!

Many web CMS vendors and open source communities describe their web content management (WCM) systems as enterprise. But what does enterprise mean in this context? Are there web CMSs out there that are not enterprise? Does it even matter? Is it beneficial for organizations to invest in an enterprise web CMS, or is it just a fancy marketing buzzword that carries little meaning?
Mar 11, 2003
Microsoft Corp. has begun distributing 500,000 copies of the Beta 2 version of the new Microsoft Office System, which will leverage its XML underpinnings to include access to various content sources directly from within Office applications. Seven Office System products are provided in the Beta evaluation kit, including Beta 2 versions of the new Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, and Access), the two new Office System additions, (InfoPath and OneNote), and Microsoft Office FrontPage, Publisher, SharePoint Services, and SharePoint Portal Server 2.0. The products were developed with four design goals in mind: improved information intelligence, including personalized access and delivery of business information; streamlined process management; more effective teaming and collaboration; and a more personal impact on the business user (improved Tablet PC support, new digital note-taking application, improvements to Outlook, and new junk email filter tools). Office 2003, the successor to Microsoft Office XP, is the cornerstone of the Office System. Office 2003 includes enhancements such as integration with Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies; XML support in Microsoft Office Word 2003, Microsoft Office Excel 2003, and Microsoft Office Access 2003; and support for Information Rights Management. Microsoft Office System products are scheduled for release in mid-2003. Beta testing will continue until November 30, 2003.
Three research and information providers have already announced that they will offer services in conjunction with Microsoft Office 2003. Factiva, Gale, and eLibrary have all integrated search tools into the Research Task Pane of all Microsoft Office 2003 applications and are available as a part of the Microsoft Office 2003 Beta 2 trial. These and other information sources can be accessed directly from Office applications like Word and Excel. If an Office user already has a paid subscription (or if a given service is free), they can right click on a word or phrase, choose "Look Up" and then a Research Window opens. Users than can choose from a variety of content sources and access and import the information directly, without leaving the application. If they don't have a subscription to a desired information services, users will be prompted to purchase the information a la carte or to subscribe.

Wait, You Mean I'm Not Getting My Own Personal Starbucks Location?
So much for there being a Starbucks on every corner. Because today the company announced it's shuttering "approximately 600 underperforming company-operated stores" in the U.S. -- only, it hasn't announced where, not yet. That may come in a few minutes: At 4:30, Pete Bocian, the coffee seller's chief financial officer, will take part in an investors' Web cast you can eavesdrop on here. Likely, a spokesman tells Unfair Park, they will know more specifics by month's end, when the company releases its third-quarter earnings. Till then, I'm gonna finish this very nice cup of Pike Place Roast Feldman just brought back from the Starbucks across from Eatzi's, at Oak Lawn and Rawlins, and hope that one's not a company-operated store. Oh, wait, it is: Starbucks don't franchise.
Update: Our favorite barista points us to this story, via Starbucks Gossip, concerning the company's ditching of those CD racks gathering dust. Word is, in a couple of weeks the company will be putting every single CD and DVD on sale at a deep, deep discount at a location near you. --Robert Wilonsky

Chair Mary Jo White testified before Congress this week. Her testimony focused on the budget, reviewing the recent work of the agency.
The Commission brought a series of civil injunctive and administrative proceedings this week. One proceeding named three exchanges and a broker-dealer as Respondents. A group of five insider trading actions centered on a merger involving eBay, two insiders and a series of tippees. Others actions focused on investment fund fraud, offering fraud and an advanced fee scheme.
Testimony: SEC Chair Mary Jo White testified on Oversight of the SEC's Agenda, Operations and FY 2015 Budget Request, before the House Committee on Financial Services (April 29, 2014)(here).
Financial fraud actions
Financial fraud actions: Cornerstone Research published a new report titled "Accounting Class Action Filings and Settlements 2013 Review and Analysis" (here). The number of accounting cases brought in 2013 compared to the prior years was essentially flat, according to the Report. Last year 47 cases were filed, up 1 from the prior year. As a percentage of the number of cases filed however, the number of accounting cases declined to 28% compared to 30% in 2012. Indeed, the 28% figure is the lowest in the last decade.
In contrast, for the second year in a row, the number of cases settled involving accounting issues increased. In 2013 44 cases were resolved compared to 38 in 2012 and 33 in 2011. The 44 cases settled involving accounting issues last year represents 66% of the overall total. That percentage has remained relatively constant over the decade, ranging from a low of 55% in 2004 to a high of 75% in 2008.
Traditionally, accounting cases have represented a significant portion of the total value of cases settled, according to Cornerstone. Yet last year, for the first time since the passage of SOX, the total value of accounting case settlements was lower than for other years. In 2013 the dollar value of the accounting cases settled was just 25% of the total amount of settlements. That is by far the lowest percentage in the last decade which the range ran from 73% to 97%. The 2013 settlements were, however, more evenly distributed over the various business sectors.
Recently the number of restatements by large firms increased, the Report notes. Correspondingly, the number of accounting cases involving restatements increased. Last year 40% of the accounting cases filed involved a restatement. That reflects an increase from the 37% in the prior year and is the largest percentage since 2008. In contrast, the number of settled cases involving accounting issues declined last year to 35%, compared to 47% in 2012. The 32% for last year represents the lowest number of settlements involving a restatement since 2008. This may reflect the fact that it takes about three years from filing to settlement for these actions, according to Cornerstone.
SEC Enforcement – Filed and Settled Actions
Statistics: This week the Commission filed, or announced the filing of, 5 civil injunctive actions, DPAs, NPAs or reports and 7 administrative proceedings (excluding follow-on and Section 12(j) proceedings).
Exchanges: In the Matter of New York Stock Exchange LLC, Adm. Proc. File No. 3-15860 (May 1, 2014) is a proceeding which names as Respondents exchanges NYSE, NYSE Arca, Inc. and NYSE MKT LLC f/k/a/ NYSE Amex LLC, and broker-dealer Archipelago Securities, LLC. The Order alleges a series of violations focused largely on either engaging in specific activity without having a properly promulgated Rule in place as required by Exchange Act Section 19(b)(1) or failing to follow its Rules, contrary to Exchange Act Section 19(g)(1). Those include: NYSE, Arca and Amex establishing and using an "error account" in which erroneous trades were handled without having an appropriate rule; ArcaSec's failure to have policies and procedures which addressed the possible misuse of material non-public information available on its Global Trade Manager which showed the Respondent Exchanges' entire depth of book including non-displayed liquidity; ArcaSec's failure to provide timely notice to the Commission regarding its violation of the net capital rule; the NYSE's providing co-location services – a service that permits a reduction in some latencies by placing servers in close proximity – without an effective exchange rule; NYSE's operating a block exchange without complying with its rules; NYSE's distributing closing order imbalance information in violation of the effective exchange rule; Arca's failure to execute mid-point passive liquidity orders per the exchange rules; and Arca's acceptance of mid-point passive liquidity orders with sub-penny limits, contrary to Regulation NMS. To resolve the proceeding the exchange Respondents agreed to implement a series of undertakings which include a requirement to retain a consultant who will prepare a report and make recommendations which will be adopted. In addition, Respondents NYSE, Arca and Amex consented to the entry of cease and desist orders based on Exchange Act Sections 19(b) and 19(g) and Rule 612(a) of Regulation NMS. Respondent ArcaSec consented to the entry of a cease and desist order based on Exchange Act Sections 15(c)(3), 15(g) and 17(a)(1). Respondents NYSE, Arca and Amex were also censured. Finally, Respondents NYSE, Arca, Amex and ArcaSec will pay, jointly and severally, a civil penalty of $4.5 million.
Investment fund fraud: In the Matter of Diego F. Hernandez, Adm. Proc. File No. 3-15518 (May 1, 2014) is a proceeding which names as Respondents Mr. Hernandez, who was a registered representative, and four entities he controls, Wealth Management Partners, LLC, Wealth Financial, Limited Liability Company, DFHR Investments, Inc., and HD Mile High Marketing, Inc. Beginning in mid-July 2011 Mr. Hernandez, through his entities, raised just under $1 million from 13 investors. He did so by meeting with each and assuring them that their funds would be placed in safe investments. In fact he used his entities to misappropriate their funds. The Order alleges willful violations of Securities Act Section 17(a) and Exchange Act Sections 10(b) and 15(a). To resolve the proceeding Mr. Hernandez consented to the entry of a cease and desist order based on Securities Act Section 17(a) and Exchange Act Sections 10(b) and 15(a). HD Mile High consented to the entry of a similar cease and desist order except it did not include Section 15(a). Mr. Hernandez also agreed to the entry of an order barring him from the securities business and from participating in any penny stock offering. He also agreed to pay disgorgement of $710,000, prejudgment interest and, with HD Mile High, on a joint and several basis, to disgorge $121,000 along with prejudgment interest, and to pay a civil penalty of $710,000.
Investment fund fraud: SEC v. Bekkedam, Civil Action No. 14-cv-2488 (E.D. Pa. Filed April 30, 2014) is an action against Barry Bekkedam, the former owner, Chairman and CEO of Ballamor Capital Management, LLC. From April through October 2009 he fraudulently induced his advisory clients and others to invest about $100 million in a Ponzi scheme operated by Scott Rothestein who is now in prison. The transactions began with an arrangement involving George Levin, also a Rothstein investor who had been trying to raise capital from others for Rothstein since 2007. Mr. Levin's investments with Mr. Rothstein were at risk. Messrs. Bekkedam and Levin entered into an arrangement to assist each other, first with Mr. Levin's investments and later those of Mr. Bekkedam. They began by forming Banyon Fund to enable Mr. Bekkedam to raise funds from clients and others to be invested exclusively in the Rothstein scheme. A series of misrepresentations were made regarding the degree of due diligence completed when soliciting investors for the venture. The arrangements between the men and the conflicts were not disclosed. The complaint alleges violations of Securities Act Section 17(a)(2), Exchange Act section 10(b) and Advisers Act Sections 206(1) and 206(2). The case is pending. See Lit. Rel. No. 22983 (April 30, 2014).
Insider trading: SEC v. Saridakis, Civil Action 152397 (E.D. Pa. Filed April 25, 2014) is one of a group of settled insider trading cases centered on the merger of eBay, Inc. with GSIC Commerce, Inc., announced on March 28, 2011. The cases are based on tips furnished by insider Christopher Saridakis and those that trade based on information from another unidentified insider. Cases that trace to Mr. Saridakis include: In the Matter of Sunken A. Shah, Adm. Proc. File No. 3-15856 (Filed April 25, 2014); and In the Matter of Shimul A. Shah, Adm. Admin. Proc. File No. 3-15857 (April 25, 2014). Those in the second group are: In the Matter of Oden Gabay, Adm. Proc. File No. 3-15854 (April 25, 2014); and In the Matter of Aharon R. Yehuda, Adm. Proc. File No. 3-15855 (April 25, 2014). The Commission was substantially assisted in its investigation by an individual who entered into a non-prosecution agreement, the first with an individual.
Investment fund fraud: In the Matter of Stanley Jonathan Fortenberry, Adm. Proc. File No. 3-15858 (April 28, 2014) is a proceeding which names the unregistered fund adviser as a Respondent. Mr. Fortenberry is the general partner of Premier Investment Fund L.P., a pooled investment vehicle. In March 2010 Mr. Fortenberry contacted a prominent manager of country music talent and offered to raise money for the Manager's new entertainment and social media Company and a Social Media Website. Without the consent of the Manager, Mr. Fortenberry then created offering materials that he claimed were tied to a business plan for Country Music Website. Investors were solicited with a number of materially false and misleading statements including specious claims of 12% returns and that each investor would be paid $35,000 per month for life. Over time Mr. Fortenberry essentially looted the fund and now little if anything is left for investors. The Order alleges willful violations of Securities Act Section 17(a), Exchange Act Section 10(b) and Advisers Act Sections 206(1), 206(2) and 206(4). The proceeding will be set for hearing.
Offering fraud: SEC v. Guardian Oil & Gas, Inc., Civil Action No. 3:14-cv-01533 (N.D. Tx. Filed April 25, 2014) is an action against the company, Guardian Oil & Natural Gas, Inc. and the principal, Rick Mullins. It alleges that over about three years, beginning in mid-2010, the defendants raised about $6.5 million from investors through the fraudulent sale of limited partnership interests in oil and gas programs. While investors were told their finds would be used solely for a specific program, in fact funds were diverted to other purposes and projects and used to pay expenses for other programs. The complaint alleges violations of Securities Act Section 17(a) and Exchange Act Section 10(b). The case is pending. See Lit. Rel. No. 22979 (April 28, 2014).
Investment fund fraud: SEC v. American Pension Services, Inc., Civil Action No. 2:14-cv-00309 (D. Utah Filed April 24, 2014) names as defendants the firm and its founder, president and CEO, Curtis DeYoung. Mr. DeYoung is alleged to have squandered over $22 million in investor funds on high risk investments. He was able to do this, beginning as early as 2005, by targeting customers with retirement accounts holding non-traditional assets typically not available through traditional 401(k) retirement plans. Mr. DeYoung is alleged to have used forged letters and signatures to invest on behalf of customers in various high risk investments. He concealed his losses with other false documents. The complaint alleges violations of Securities Act Sections 17(a)(1) and (3) and Exchange Act Section 10(b). A freeze order was obtained at the time of filing. The case is pending. See Lit. rel. No. 22982 (April 30, 2014).
Advanced fee fraud: SEC v. Erwin, Civil Action No. 2;14-cv-623 (D. Nev. April 23, 2014) is an action against James Erwin and his company, Las Vegas-based Joint Venture Solutions, Inc. This action is related to SEC v. Malom Group AG filed in December 2013. The case centers on an advance fee fraud in which between 2009 and 2011 Mr. Erwin, through Joint Venture Solutions, promoted investments in Malom ("Make A Lot of Money"), offered securities in that entity to investors and served as an intermediary between investors and the entity. Five investors were induced to pay Malom $2.5 million to enter into agreements through which they ultimately lost all their funds. The scheme is described in greater detail here. The complaint alleges violations of Securities Act Section 5 and Exchange Act Section 15(a). The case is pending. See Lit. Rel. No. 22978 (April 28, 2014).
Criminal actions
Investment fund fraud: U.S. v. Greenwood, Case No. 1:09-mj-00502 (S.D.N.Y. Filed July 24, 2009) is an action in which investment manager and WG Trading Company, LP and WG Trading Investors principal, Stephen Walsh, pleaded guilty to two counts of securities fraud. In entering the plea Mr. Walsh agreed to forfeit $50,743,779 which represents the amount he misappropriated and by which he personally profited from the fraud. The plea was based on an investment fund fraud that took place over a three year period beginning in early 2009. During the period Mr. Walsh and his confederate, Paul Greenwood, are alleged to have raised about $7.6 billion from investors. Those investors were told that their funds would be placed in a "veritable money-making machine." That machine was supposedly an investment program called "equity index arbitrage." The program was represented to be a conservative trading strategy which had out-performed the S&P 500 index for over 10 years. The pitch was so successful that several institutional investors, pension plans and charitable and university investment funds put billions of dollars in the program. The investment program was not nearly as successful as the investment pitch. In fact Messrs. Walsh and Greenwood misappropriated hundreds of millions of dollars of investor funds, diverting the money to their personal use. The date for sentencing has not been set. See also SEC v. WG Trading, Investors, L.P., Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-01750 (S.D.N.Y. Filed Feb. 25, 2009); CFTC v. Walsh, Civil Action No. 1:09-cv-01749 (S.D.N.Y. Filed Feb. 25, 2009).
Money laundering: The Serious Frauds Office announced the opening of a money laundering investigation arising from suspicions of corruption in Ukraine. Approximately $23 million in assets have been placed under restraint using the Proceeds of Crime Act. The SFO declined to release more details at this time.
Supervision: The Financial Conduct Authority banned John Christopher Hughes, formerly of UBS, for failure to supervise. Specifically, in the first nine months of 2011 he failed to adequately supervise Kweku Mawuli Abdoboli who lost $2.3 billion through unauthorized trading. While he was aware of the activities of the trader and that the profits for the trading desk were being manipulated, he failed to take the proper steps.

App Of The Day – Limbua's 'The Christmas List'
It's now officially December which means the Christmas countdown is full-on. If you're like me, you're gonna wait until Christmas Eve to shop, but if you like to plan, this app will help you organize your shopping list and budget like you've never been able to before!
For a cool $.99 you can pick someone special from your iPhone contact list, assign a budget and begin shopping. Status indicators mark whether you've bought a gift, shipped it, whether they've received it or not, or if you've wrapped it. There's a Christmas countdown clock (23 days now!) and a sliding progress bar and pie graph that tells you how much shopping progress you've made for each person on your list. What's really cool is you can even track your gifts by store, so you can get all the gifts you need in that store for your entire list without having to visit a second time!! This app just might inspire me to actually shop on time this year! How bout you?

They're iron heads, and heavy castings but nothing great without a lot of porting.
I really don't see any appeal for them unless you're required to use them by racing rules. Since you were looking at patriot I assume you want aluminum offshore heads- there are plenty of options available for that. Also with that cam id get a 195-210cc port not a tiny 180cc port. |
check out the 195cc trick flow heads Fast as cast, they are as cast off of cnc ported versions..
Trick Flow® Super 23® 195 Cylinder Heads for Small Block Chevrolet - trickflow.com here is the flow sheet as well.. http://static.trickflow.com/global/i...195%2064cc.pdf and here is my choice for your build the 215 cc http://www.trickflow.com/partdetail....6&autoview=sku and flow sheet.. http://static.trickflow.com/global/i...215%2067cc.pdf and dyno example http://static.trickflow.com/global/i...up23%20215.pdf Last edited by 2wld4u; 07-31-2012 at 12:09 PM. |
The Dart SHP heads I was looking at are aluminum. They have a dual valve sping for use with hydraulic roller cam. I'd post the link on the heads but I'm writing this on my phone. Ill attach the link later when I'm on my computer.
I bought some skip white procomp 210cc for mine! Look really good! I will get shot for this now.........
Here is the link to the heads I am looking at. Being that its going to be a street car isnt a 200cc head to big?? I told Comp what I was doing and thats the cam they recomended
Hey CNC block: Do you like the SHP heads?? Dart 127122 - Dart SHP Special High Performance Cylinder Heads - Overview - SummitRacing.com |
9/12 issue of car craft has a low buck aluminum head shootout. The dart heads have 200cc intakes everything else has 180, if your going to port them all of these heads are promising.
If you have heads that flow 250 plus cfm on the intake side with a 75-80% exhaust flow,for normally aspirated engines,,,,I would go with the smallest cc intake runner that gives the flow numbers I want.This keeps the intake velocity higher on a smaller engine.
on a mild 350 I would consider modified vortecs first.any aluminum head that offers CnC machined,flow tested aluminums next,for a race car,go with specialty heads and custom porting. |
Btw excessive velocity is just as bad as inadequate velocity if not worse. |
I wont be turning the motor past 6500 Tops!!. Probably put a 6000 pill in my msd just to be safe. This will aslo be a street car. Ive read you really dont want to use anything above a 195cc intake runner on the street. Also seen many people say 180 runner is perfect for 350 street motor. I talked to 2 people at AFR one said use the 180's for sure. The other said Because of the weight of my car (2500#'s) he go 195's. Being that im a cheap a** I considered getting a cheaper set of heads(still want decend quality) and port and polish them.
I would like to make 450hp but still have a reasonable amount of tourqe. Any head suggestions would be appreciated. I can get a set of AFR streets to my door for 1715.00 USD. If I could get a set to my door for $1200 and port and polish and achieve that 450hp goal I think thats the way I would go. Im in Canada btw |
stock 292 angle plug heads can make 450 HP with a decent camshaft.My 67 Camaro used GM cast iron heads,solid cam,850 holley,ran high 11s @ 114,car weighed 3600 ish with me in it.
The afr heads can make more power with less cam,you do the math on cost and drive ability. |

Seafood, salads, pizzas and desserts are excellent.The view of the sea wonderful.Very friendly staff.I am very satisfied.
As this was very close to our hotel The Capitol we decided to give it a try because of the fact the restaurant overlooked the beach and the sea. We realised however upon arrival that it was a restaurant frequented by families many of which had young children who once they had finished their meals were left to their own... More
Despite the popular area, this is one of the few restaurants which is away from crowds and noises and in fact close to the seaside. Staff is extremely professional and unusually polite. Food is good and the overall ambience is very relaxing and enjoyable.

Just posting out a warning for those of you who seek to join The Enclave. A community with a racist leader and some racist members.
I applied and joined, but I found out that the leader of this guild and some of its members are very clearly racist. Slinging about their racist remarks and tries to hide it as humor. And as insult to injury, they removed my post from their recruitment forum "The Enclave wants YOU!" as I tried to warn others of their behavior and give them another chance to explain. The first time I gave them a chance to explain was on their own forums but all I got was more racist slurs thrown upon me such as "what a stupid ******". If you are like me and try to find a mature guild, I wouldn't select The Enclave. Definitely not in its current obvious racist form. My job is done, I've warned you all.

Really sad to hear that. F'em. They're a disgrace to Republic.
Meh, Fallout 3. I tried but I just couldn't get myself into it. Fallout 1 and 2 rocked though. True Enclave ended with Hoorigan as far as I'm concerned.

Zombies are rather popular in American culture right now, especially among gun owners. The biggest example of the undead's popularity is the TV show The Walking Dead, which saw huge ratings in Season 3. Not only did it have good ratings for cable—it's broadcast on AMC—most nights it beat every other show on TV, including shows on the big three networks (ABC, NBC and CBS).
One reason zombies and The Walking Dead are so popular is the heavy emphasis on firearms in the genre. When you're dealing with a creature that wants to eat you and can only be "killed" by destroying its brain, nothing works better at keeping their teeth away from your neck than guns.
That said, there is also a large contingent of gun owners whose opinion of the zombie craze can best be summed up by the conviction, "Zombies are stupid." OK, I get that—if you can't get past the whole "dead walking the earth" thing, the entertainment value of anything zombie tends to slide toward zero. That said, The Walking Dead is hugely popular for a lot of reasons, and there are a lot of lessons—symbolic and otherwise—in it for anyone interested in firearms for self defense and emergency preparedness.
The Mother of All Natural Disasters
Can you think of a more extreme example of a natural disaster than the Zombie Apocalypse? Emergency responders overwhelmed or out of the picture entirely, power and utilities down, deadly creatures roaming everywhere. Even the federal government has gotten into the emergency preparedness game with Ready.gov, recommending everyone have a kit loaded with everything you and your family would need to survive for 72 hours.
The best perspective on why you should prepare for the Zombie Apocalypse is something that's been posted for years on the FAQ page of the forum at ZombieHunters.org:
Q: Do you really think Zombies are real or is this some sort of zombie movie fan site?
A: Zombie Squad realizes that it is quite possible for someone to live their entire lives without encountering the undead nuisance. However, we hold fast to the belief that if you are prepared for a scenario where the walking corpses of your family and neighbors are trying to eat you alive, you will be prepared for almost anything.
Zombie Squad is very serious about promoting public awareness of the need for survival preparation and contingency planning.
The Long and Short of It
Everyone tends to think of a natural disaster as a short-term event, hence the "72-hour" bags. But what if the problem goes on and on? The heroes in The Walking Dead have been dealing with corpses for three seasons—about a year in their world—and it appears their world has forever changed. Finding food and water is just as much of a priority for them as avoiding the undead. It took months, if not years, for life to return to normal in Louisiana after to Hurricane Katrina, and people in New England had no power for weeks after Sandy.
You Dance with Who You Brung
After a disaster is not the time to be thinking about buying a gun for protection or stocking up on supplies. The survivors of The Walking Dead use whatever weapons they can scrounge—knives, screwdrivers, handguns, crowbars, shotguns, baseball bats, rifles, a samurai sword and even a crossbow.
Also, the survivors quickly found out sound attracts walkers, so in the third season we saw them using guns with homemade suppressors. I particularly like the one made from the body of a Maglite. In the most recent season, they twice stumbled upon supplies of AR-15s—and ammo—and they are very very happy about it. If you don't have what you think you might need to defend yourself or your family simply from a burglar—much less the looting which frequently follows natural disasters in this country—you're doing it wrong.
Hurricanes and Tornadoes Don't Riot or Loot
Whether the undead ever walk the earth or not, there will be more natural and man-made disasters. Most of the problems besetting the people living in those areas aren't the storms themselves, but the people using the situation as an opportunity to misbehave. In The Walking Dead, the biggest problem the main group has to deal with by the third season isn't the zombies, but rather other survivors who want their stuff. The mere presence of a gun won't deter a zombie, but it sure works on regular people thinking about causing trouble.
Even without any disaster, the world is full of thieves—protect what you've got, and don't start yapping to your neighbors how you're a one-man army, and you've got a generator and enough guns, ammo, food and water to last for years on your own. If things get bad they'll be standing on your porch knocking. If things get really bad, they won't knock.
You Can Never Have Too Much Ammo
Does this really need explaining? In the zombie genre you'll see guns, guns and more guns to deal with the shambling hordes of zombies. Most of the time little thought is given to ammunition by the director or producer, but we know different. Guns have to be fed. Most of us will never burn through an entire magazine shooting at people, living or dead. However, for those rare exceptions, there is nothing like having a lot of ammo available, preferably already loaded into magazines which hold a large number of rounds.
In October, G&A published a story in which an older gentleman with health issues was beset by home invaders—three guys with guns and masks entered his house, plus there was a driver in the getaway car. The homeowner fired multiple shots at the men, seriously wounding one and driving the others away. While they weren't zombies, the lesson is clear.
Teamwork Saves Lives
Whether it's the Zombie Apocalypse or a tornado that's torn up your town, things will need to get done. It is far better to be part of a team working together than trying to go things on your own. In The Walking Dead, somebody always needs to be on watch to make sure the biters are sneaking up behind you. In the aftermath of a natural disaster, you'll discover your neighbors have all sorts of useful skills, such as carpentry, plumbing or auto repair. Some of them can also stand guard on your house while you sleep.
People working together can accomplish a lot more. During the L.A. riots, store owners worked together to defend their properties. Thanks to teamwork—and their "assault rifles"—they saved their stores.

After my examination at the beginning of this week on how nanotechnology might help address the cleanup of the oil spill in the Gulf, I did a short interview for Spectrum's Podcast series on the same subject.
I was posed a question in the interview that I had not really considered when composing my blog post: What if governments required by a certain date in the future that oil companies would need to have developed materials and/or technologies that would significantly improve our ability to clean up the mess caused by oil spills?
The example given for this kind of government mandated innovation was regulations imposed on car manufacturers for improved emissions or efficiency.
It was an interesting question to me because I am continually confronted with the prospect that nanotechnology itself must be regulated not that governments might require its use.
On the contrary, it has seemed recently that the predominant attitude towards emerging technologies is that they cause more problems than they solve. We may even be seeing examples of this in the Gulf oil spill where it appears that the chemical dispersants being used by BP may be causing more damage to the wildlife than the oil.
I was further spurred to reexamine the seeming failure of technology to come to the rescue by Tim Harper, who I interviewed for my original piece, and who added some thoughts of his own over at his TNTLog to the subject. The question seemed to be: If we have the technologies, why don't we use them?
To get an answer to this question, I thought I would ask Harper's colleague in a recent proposal to the World Economic Forum on how to address the problems of innovation, Professor Andrew Maynard.
Professor Maynard is a noted thought leader on the the roles risk, regulation and innovation play in nanotechnology through his popular blog 2020 Science and has recently moved on from his position as Chief Scientist at the Project on Emerging Technologies to take on the role of Director for Risk Science Center at the University of Michigan School of Public Health. And I put to him, what is the relationship between risk, regulation and innovation when we look at the example of how nanotechnology can be applied to the oil spill crisis in the Gulf?
"There's a myth that technology innovation can solve all our problems," argues Maynard "And to back it up, there's a long string of examples of where technological breakthroughs have made life better - treating disease, providing energy, improving access to clean water and nutritious food, and so on. Yet the real benchmark for whether we are getting technology innovation right is not the success stories, but the failures."
- Strategic foresight
- Developing effective Incentives and mechanisms
- Rethinking the relationship between risk, uncertainty and sustainable innovation
It seems that if we do not reevaluate our system of innovation we are likely to be facing another man-made tragedy that we could have ameliorated or even avoided with technologies that we developed under such a framework.

San Diego Comic-Con is quickly approaching (here's hoping for a panel announcement soon!), and Dark Horse has just announced their line of Game of Thrones merchandise that will be available exclusively at the convention.
Perhaps the most exciting is their pewter replicas of all three of Daenerys Targaryen's dragons. Standing 3" tall with a 6" wingspan, only 1,250 of each will be produced, and you can pick up the trio for just $90.
They will also be offering a 8″ x 5″ polyresin replica of a Lannister shield in the form of a wall plaque, and a 4″ tall hand-painted Bolton map marker, designed as a reproduction of Robb Stark's very same flayed-man marker, to go with their map marker set.
For the full details visit Dark Horse.
Funko will be bringing some Game of Thrones exclusives to the convention as well. They are slowly revealing their entire collection of exclusives in the weeks leading up to Comic-Con, and today's batch included a glow in the dark White Walker Legacy figure. We didn't want the White Walkers to sneak up on you… so we made them glow!
The White Walker won't be Funko's only Game of Thrones related exclusive, as a previously released hints list alludes to some new additions to their Thrones Mystery Minis, a battle-ready Tyrion Lannister Legacy figure, and a fuzzy Direwolf Pop! figure.

The opportunity is here
At the same time that our economic engines are faltering, something else is happening. Like all revolutions, it happens in fits and starts, without perfection, but it's clearly happening.
The mass market is being replaced by multiple micro markets and the long tail of choice.
Google is connecting buyers and sellers over vaster distances, more efficiently and more cheaply than ever before.
Manufacturing is more of a conceptual hurdle than a practical one.
The exchange of information creates ever more value, while commodity products are ever cheaper. It takes fewer employees to generate more value, make more noise and impact more people.
Most of all is this: every individual, self-employed or with a boss, is now more in charge of her destiny than ever before. The notion of a company town or a stagnant industry with little choice is fading fast.
Right before your eyes, a fundamentally different economy, with different players and different ways to add value is being built. What used to be an essential asset (for a person or for a company) is worth far less, while new attributes are both scarce and valuable.
Embracing your Opportunity in Toronto
I realized almost a decade ago that computerization in the Real Estate industry would always be cutting edge since we are perceived as market and marketing specialists. I found this post from Seth Godin that speaks to the need to find our own Value Proposition in our marketplace and that we really need to really shine.
To provide value we must be able to repeatedly demonstrate the results that are claimed. When you type Homes west Toronto into Google; It will respond with entries from my sites and even suggest my name.
What does this mean for you? This means that when I advertise your home, your property, connect with material about your community, it will be read and it will be indexed and found. Here are some tangible results. Recently, on a home in Markland Wood we had the following observations.
So if you want Results that Matter and can be repeated; not just a reliance on the MLS.ca system, but actual marketing to draw fresh eyes to look at your property; Have a look at us Homes in West Toronto encompassing the Toronto South Waterfront GTA that runs from High Park and Palace Place to the toniest Mattamy built homes in Lorne Park's Watercolours or the seclusion of Oakville.

Buffalo wings + meatballs = match made in Heaven! These taste incredible…lick the plate good. So good, you'd think they're bad for you.
Prepare to be pleasantly surprised. Go ahead – happy dance if you want.
These buffalo chicken meatballs are made with lean ground chicken and packed with healthy vegetables – whizzed through the food processor so you hardly notice them. What you do notice is that the meatballs are incredibly moist. There's just enough blue cheese so you get that delicious tang, but not all the fat.
Adjust the hot sauce to your taste – I like a lot. You can use whichever brand you fancy – I personally adore Frank's RedHot.
These are a perfect football snack – or party appetizer – or even a light dinner when you have a hot wing scratch that needs to be itched.
