Margaret Sullivan's Shawlette

BuddyTV Guide Adds New World of Free TV and Movie Trailers(June 19, 2012)
Seattle, WA (PRWEB) June 19, 2012
BuddyTV Guide, the top-rated channel guide and TV companion app from BuddyTV, helps its users find the right show, right now with its powerful recommendation engine, personalized listings and multiple content sources. Now the app has added another way for TV fans to decide if a movie or TV episode is right for them: the app now hosts more than 70,000 movie and TV trailers in its inventory, giving users the ability to preview available films and episodes before they tune in.
BuddyTV Guide now serves up the latest available clip or trailer for almost 200 TV series, more than 44,000 unique television episodes and almost 27,000 movies that users can find inside the app, with more being added all the time.
The new preview feature expands upon BuddyTV Guides mission to help its users discover their must-see TV -- which the app also recognizes means more than just cable and broadcast channels these days. Along with their local channel listings and DVR, users can enable multiple streaming content sources, such as Netflix, Amazon and iTunes, and see all these sources inside one seamless, searchable guide. Users can view show, episode and movie trailers without leaving the app, and see the videos alongside even more details, like episode descriptions, news and photos, scheduling information and availability across their entertainment services.
We want our users to be overjoyed, not overloaded, by all their options, said BuddyTV CEO Andy Liu. With tens of thousands of episodes and movies available at any given moment, the simple question of What should I watch? can become legitimately challenging. The ability to watch a quick video preview is just one of the many ways that BuddyTV Guide helps you answer that question faster and more easily -- and its just a lot more fun, too.
BuddyTV Guide works by syncing to the users personal cable or broadcast lineup and streaming services, integrating them into one guide and curating personalized recommendations based on favorites, ratings and check-ins -- so the more someone uses the app, the better it works. Users can search for a specific program, see their entire up-to-date TV lineup, and filter by favorite shows and channels, program type, or whats popular or new at the moment. The app also gives users the abilities to blacklist channels or shows they dont want to see, set reminders for their favorite programs, and even tap to tune in on compatible devices, using the app itself as their remote control.
Beyond clips and trailers, the app also hosts several entertaining and social features surrounding tons of popular shows and movies, including access to thousands of original articles and slideshows from BuddyTV.com, sharing capabilities to Twitter and Facebook, the ability to text with viewing buddies and more.
The BuddyTV Guide app is available for free for iOS devices in the iTunes store, for Android and GoogleTV devices in the Google Play marketplace, and provides listings for cable and satellite TV providers in the US. These include Comcast, Cablevision, Time Warner, Verizon, DirecTV, Dish and many more. The ability to watch trailers is currently available for users on the iPhone or iPad. Users with AT&T U-verse receivers, DirecTV DVRs, Sony Internet TV with Google TV, Logitech Revue, TiVo Series 3, TiVo Premier, any devices controlled by Google TV and Samsung Smart TVs can use the apps remote control capabilities.

The tattoo artist takes to Twitter to announce that their 'relationship is indeed over,' adding that 'cheating on your loved one is the most hurtful thing one could do.'
Kat Von D is mending a broken heart, yet again. The former "LA Ink" star, who was engaged to Sandra Bullock's ex-husband Jesse James in 2011, has split with her fiance Deadmau5 a.k.a. Joel Zimmerman.
Announcing the breakup on Twitter, the tattoo artist hinted that the Canadian music producer cheated on her. "Cheating on your loved one is the most hurtful thing one could do. I hate to have to admit, that this relationship is indeed over," she wrote on Wednesday, June 26.
"Man, I'm a fool," she tweeted several hours earlier, seemingly revealing how she felt at the moment. The 31-year-old reality personality later ended her revelation on a high note with a picture of a heart tattoo on the palm of a hand and a caption which read, "go out into the world with love."
Kat Von D and Deadmau5 first came forward with their relationship in 2012. After briefly splitting, they got engaged in December with Deadmau5 proposing to her via Twitter. "I can't wait for Christmas so.... Katherine Von Drachenberg, will you marry me? Changing the diamond to a black diamond FYI. Sorry for the jpg...they'll finish the actual ring soon I hope. I love u :D" he tweeted back then.
Von D, who once also dated Motley Crue's bassist Nikki Sixx, had even envisioned how their wedding would've been, saying in April this year that she planned an underwater-themed nuptials, which would be "the furthest thing from traditional."

The mind is like the wave and the Soul is like the ocean. And the connection between the two is that the mind cannot be without the soul, but the soul can exist without the mind. So in meditation you drop the mind, you become one with the totality that is the ocean. Therefore both exist together, the mind as well as the soul, like the wave as well as the ocean.
Your concept in the mind that things should be a certain way causes pain in the mind. The cause of distress is set concepts in the mind.

Playoffs the goal for SSA girls lacrosse squad
Last season, the Shady Side Academy girls lacrosse team beat Seneca Valley in the first round of the WPIAL playoffs and fell in the semifinals to Pine-Richland. Coach Emily Schaknowski is hopeful that this year's squad will be a solid playoff contender.
The Indians lost six seniors to graduation but will return eight starters led by all-WPIAL standout Felicia Tissenbaum, a midfielder who will be playing at Stanford next year.
She will be ably complemented by fellow seniors Mickey Saperstein and Lia Winter at midfield along with senior attacker Michela Jaffe. Other returning starters are sophomore midfielders Kara Pooley and Charlotte Redican, junior defender Taylor Valenta and sophomore goalie Gabby Harchelroad.
The team will also feature some promising young newcomers in freshmen Sydney Jones, Katie Bray, Katherine McGhee and Alayna Trice.
"Our strengths will be our athleticism and our intelligence," Schaknowski said.
"We have a good mix of experienced players and some talented underclassmen. We will be playing in Section1, Division 1 and the top contenders will likely be Mt. Lebanon and Peters Township."
Schaknowski feels that if her team puts in the needed effort, they should contend again.
"We scrimmaged Fox Chapel after a few days of practice and it was obvious that we have some talent on the team but there is still a lot of work that needs to be done," she said.
"We have put in a lot of work during the off-season and this group is working hard to challenge for the WPIAL championship."

6 common woes of tomatoes
Last Updated:
August 8, 2014
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Are your tomatoes struggling? Brooke Edmunds, a horticulturist with the Oregon State University Extension Service, troubleshoots the following common problems that might be afflicting them:
Blossom drop – It's usually caused by dry soil and dry winds, but also may be caused by a sudden cold spell, heavy rain or too much nitrogen. Usually not all blossoms will fall off, so be patient for the next set of flowers.
Blossom-end rot – The end of the fruit farthest away from the stem turns brown or black – a condition caused by irregular watering practices and calcium deficiency. It is most common in western Oregon. Water deeply and regularly. Add lime to the soil in the fall to increase the calcium level for next year's crop.
Leaf roll – A physiological problem that is most often the result of heavy pruning or root injury. Some tomato cultivars display leaf rolling as a normal growth habit. Plants may lose leaves but will recover. Learn more in this guide on leaf roll from OSU Extension's online catalog.
Sunscald – Green tomatoes can get sunburned if exposed. There is no cure, only prevention by reducing foliage diseases that can cause leaf loss. Take care when pruning to protect the developing fruit.
Early and late blight – These are fungal diseases, characterized by spots on lower leaves and stems that appear water-soaked. Avoid overhead watering, and remove diseased leaves.
Slow-ripening fruit – Temperatures above 85 degrees can slow the ripening of tomatoes, which ripen quickest at 70 degrees to 75 degrees. Wait for cooler weather to allow for vine-ripening to occur. Fruit just showing color changes can be picked and stored at room temperature to ripen.
For more information, photos and control methods for these and other tomato maladies, consult OSU Extension's Pacific Northwest Plant Disease Management Handbook. Or call or visit your local OSU Extension office. A list of Master Gardener program locations is on the web.

World's Collide
So, here is my favorite song from my favorite movie called Waiting For Forever.
This is the story about a boy who fallin in love with a girls since they were a kid. The time's goes by, their separate until the girls become a artist and the boy become a magician. So, the boy is following her all the time.Until one day, he get her love. Romantic movie and a fairy tale love movie. I love it!
And this song, is telling about the whole story. :)
Back when we were young.We ran into the sun.It's like we fell apart.Yes you stole my heart.I searched these wasted years.To wipe away the tears.As my heart began to crackWe can't go back. I can hardly speak.When you're in front of meI. can't breathe. Two paths that would not cross.You left me feeling lost.But I love you just the same. Let the magic rain.With a blanket made of stars.To wrap the both of us.As we fell into the light.Our worlds collideYes that's the way that our worlds collide.Here I am and here I stand.Our worlds collide.And I would wait for you.And I'd wait forever too.You're in, you're in my heart
It's true.

Colon Cancer
Why Do I Need To Be Screened By A Specialist?
Several people in my family have gotten colon cancer in their 30`s & 40`s. My doctor says my brothers & sisters & I have a high risk and should be screened by a specialist. Can`t I just get screened by my regular doctor?
Because of your family history, you are potentially at substantially increased risk for colon cancer. Your doctor is probably recommending colon cancer screening by a specialist to make sure that no precancerous polyps might be missed. Doctors who do colonoscopies frequently are better at screening because they do it so often, and they keep up on current screening techniques and recommendations.
In addition to the increased screening (colonoscopies) recommended by your doctor, you should also consider a genetics evaluation to determine whether genetic testing might help identify who in the family is truly at increased risk and who might be at lower risk. When you meet with the genetic counselor, you will discuss the pattern of cancers in your family, talk about appropriate screening (when to start colonoscopies, how often they are to be repeated), and consider genetic testing. The genetic counselor can help you think about how to start genetic testing in your family, who to talk to about this, and how to open up the topic for discussion. You can find a genetic counselor by going to the websites for the National Society of Genetic Counselors or the National Cancer Institute.

Paz De La Huerta Boardwalk Empire
Published: February 9, 2012
Paz De La Huerta Boardwalk Empire, The last few episodes of the second season of Boardwalk Empire worked to slim down the cast quite a bit. The season finale especially left us with the removal of a particularly noteworthy member of our Atlantic County family, leaving us to fear the eventual loss of some of our other favorites on the HBO series. Apparently, these fears are coming true rather quickly: it was announced today that Paz de la Huerta, who played Lucy Danziger-former lover of Nucky Thompson and mother of the unbalanced Detective Nelson Van Alden's child-will leave the show.
It is reported that series' producers chose not to accept de la Huerta's contract option, leaving her character's fate a mystery. However, it is not a huge shocker to hear that we wouldn't be seeing de la Huerta anymore, given her character's sudden abandonment of her child at the end of the second season. Van Alden's relocation to Cicero, Illinois, with his daughter also suggests that he won't be in much contact with Lucy any further.
The relationship resultant of the pair's first night together took a heavy emotional toll on both parties, Lucy especially. Season 2 saw the character slip into a devastating depression that made many viewers wonder just how much longer she'd be able to hold on. Shortly after she gave birth to a baby girl, Lucy disappeared, leaving Van Alden the sole guardian of young Abigail.
Clearly, Boardwalk Empire has a no-holds-barred policy on characters it will kill off. The only individual I'd deem safe for now is Steve Buscemi's Nucky Thompson…but then again, I wouldn't have predicted some (or any) of the deaths at the end of Season 2.

Well, this will probably make the next block party a little
Last night, two women were arrested after allegedly threatening their neighbors at gunpoint.
The incident started at 5 p.m. when two women walked over to their neighbors apartment on the 3500 block of San Bruno Avenue to talk about money owed. A 55-year-old man opened the door and a verbal fight began. A woman inside the house heard the commotion, came to the door, and that's when the two suspects tried to push their way inside, according to police reports.
One of the suspects pulled out a gun and threatened the man and woman; the couple managed to close the door on their neighbors and call the cops.
The two women were arrested on suspicion of criminal threats and
brandishing a weapon, which brings a whole new meaning to "neighborhood watch" in this area.

Squashing divorce rumors, Beyoncé shared a sweet photo of husband Jay-Z and their 2-year-old daughter Blue Ivy.
The 32-year-old pop superstar posted via Instagram: "My favorite hue is JayZ Blue," she captioned the image of her husband toting their tot along a beautiful beach.
She also shared some more photos from their family vacation.
The sweet shots are posted amid claims the pair will release a statement announcing the end of their union once their tour wraps in September.
A source told Page Six: "It's only a matter of time (until they split.) It's so obvious now it's embarrassing. He (Jay) wants this tour to end and he wants the rumours to stop. This (trouble) has been brewing longer than anyone knows. They're performers. And they're good performers. It's a business now, and they are business partners. And they don't even fight.

The Lucifer Effect, by Dr. Philip Zimbardo
The Lucifer Effect: Understanding How Good People Turn Evil
How is it possible for ordinary, average, even good people to become perpetrators of evil? Dr. Zimbardo ran the famous "Stanford Prison Experiment" in the late 1960s that randomly assigned healthy, normal intelligent college students to play the roles of prisoner or guard in a projected 2 week-long study that he was forced to terminate after only 6 days because it went out of control, with pacifists becoming sadistic guards, and normal kids breaking down emotionally. Dr. Zimbardo applies his theories to understanding torture in the Inquisition, the massacre in Rwanda, the rape of Nanking, and the abuse & torture of in Iraq's infamous Abu Ghraib prison.
Dr. Zimbardo reviews the research findings from conformity, obedience to authority, role-playing, dehumanization, deindividuation and moral disengagement, that validate the assertion that situational power is stronger than we appreciate, and may come to dominate individual dispositions. He introduces the "evil of inaction" as a new form of evil that supports those who are the perpetrators of evil, by knowing but not acting to challenge them. Finally, after considering "The banality of evil" as everyman and every woman's potential for engaging in evil deeds despite their generally moral upbringing and pro-social life style, Dr. Zimbardo introduces the new concept of "The Banality of Heroism" by those who defied the Lucifer Effect.

From Doublestar's Facebook page:
Effective Immediately!! Due to the recent changes in 2nd Amendment laws that are pending or currently enforced by states across the country, the J&T Family of Companies which includes J&T Distributing, DoubleStar Corp., Ace Limited, and the DoubleStar Training Academy has been forced to reassess our policies regarding government and law enforcement sales. Effective immediately, the J&T Family of Companies will be joining other manufacturers and distributors by ceasing sales of regulated items in states that have altered the rights of citizens to keep and bear arms . . .
The JTFOC will no longer sell prohibited items to law enforcement agencies or any government agencies in states, counties, cities, and municipalities that have enacted restrictive gun control laws against their law abiding citizens. We hope other companies will join us with their support. We applaud those already involved with this effort to protect our 2nd Amendment rights.
-Be Victorious
49 Responses to Doublestar Joins Other Manufacturers in Closing Police Loophole
Thank you for standing up for our rights.
Doublestar is not in business to "stand up for our rights". They are in business to make money. They, as all other companies, act in their best interest to make money. Which, in this case, is to decide that more money is to be made by not pissing off the gun owners.
Thank you all the same?
Thank You All DoubleStar!!! Every bit of help we can get in this fight will help us get our point across and hopefully win the war against us and our rights!!!!
Makes me glad that I own one of their rifles. For the $700 I paid for the DS4 (last summer), it's not a bad rifle at all. Pretty accurate and functions flawlessly.
$700 bucks! Sweet deal. You're lucky if you can get a mini-14 for that.
I have a Doublestar rifle. This makes me proud to own it.
There are 80+ million gun owners in America. There are less than 1 million cops. No way can their buying power be greater than the non cop gun owners. Boycott any companies doing business with the blue state gun banners. Can the states of Ill, NY and CA outbuy the 80 million citizens? Our civil rights are on the line. Will we People of the Gun do less than the people of color that suffered under Jim Crow laws and aparthied? If we show less resolve and courage then we deserve the servitude that becomes ours.
From a business standpoint, government sales are attractive due to the much greater revenue per sale compared to retail.
When making a relatively undifferentiated product like an AR-15, one way for a company to differentiate is on the sales and marketing side. Some vendors probably target direct sales to government or companies, while most target retail through distributors and their web sites.
Manufacturers with mostly retail revenue can easily thumb their noses at government sales for the reasons you describe. Others who get a significant portion of revenue from direct sales to government are in a much more difficult position.
Government contracting, at all levels of government, is a pain in the a$$ for vendors. I know of many IT vendors who do not service government contracts because of the bid process and the often delayed payments. Unless you sell a significant portion of your product line to government agencies implementing a boycott of some jurisdictions will not cut into profits. The bigger companies may come to realize that making an example of New York, Illinois and California may be in their long term interest if it acts to deter other states from pursuing civilian disarmarment policies.
I'm about to swear off Glock!
$600 for a used piece of tuperware here. I'm not saying they don't work, they are hardly "perfection" though. You don't need to set up a mobile machine shop to remachine 20,000 leo "perfection" guns. I'll stick with loyal USA manufacturers, Randy
Thank you Doublestar. Nicely done!
Good for Double Star, too bad other companies (cough, cough, Armalite) are too spineless to follow this tact. The list of business I will actively look to favor keeps growing.
Armalite is not spineless, they just play for the other team
Looks like Armalite is for cops, by cops. Don't expect them to help this movement.
More companies need to show some testicular fortitude and join in. I'm guessing that sales to law enforcement agencies in States with severe gun restrictions are a relatively small percentage of their business. And if so, more companies should be doing this.
"closing the police loophole." HILARIOUS!
Solid, I'll remember this next time I'm shopping for an AR. Soon….
Is there any way to get a running list of companies who have joined the boycott added to each of these announcements so that we need not go searching back through the archives?
And more importantly, the ones that have stated otherwise! Our wallets will speak for all of us.
There is hope for America after all. Thank you Doublestar. Glock, where do you stand on this? Please everyone, email Glock and ask them to stand with us or fall.
Thanks Doublestar, for the support, Randy
To all the officers in states where such bans have occurred: you are now reaping what you helped to sow.
This recent trend along with the Eastern Sports and Outdoors Show boycott is VERY encouraging to me. I have already done (backorder) business with one of these companies specifically because they were on the list and I aim to do more in the future.
BTW, can anyone confirm that Barrett was the first major firearms company to refuse to sell its products to LEO in jurisdictions where they were illegal for ordinary citizens? I know that has been their policy for years, but I don't know if they were the first.
Not sure if this constitutes proof of being first but it at least gives a mark to beat. Here is the letter from Barrett announcing they would not sell to or service rifles use by CA LEO's.
SWEET. Nice goin', Doublestar.
Huzzah's to Doublestar. Here is a copy of my email to Armalite, Glock, Ruger, Bushmaster, Freedom Group etc.
To Whom It May Concern,
These are trying times for those of us who fight to defend our precious 2nd Amendment civil rights. To quote Benjamin Franklin "We must all hang together gentlemen, or surely we will all hang separately". Does Armalite stand with us or against us in this fight? If you truly wish to show your solidarity with We The People, then you must join the growing list of companies that have stopped selling "assault weapons" to police agencies in those jurisdictions which have banned their ownership by law abiding citizens. Don't aid and abet the destruction of our 2nd Amendment rights by selling AR-15 rifles to any police dept. that enforces an "assault weapon" ban in violation of The U.S. Constitution. Your customers are watching you and we expect you to do the right thing and stand with us. Please close the "police loophole" and fight the good fight.
Yours In Liberty,
Wait…Isn't the loophole that they won't sell to government/LE agencies, but they will still sell to cops personally??? Isn't that exactly the same policy as ArmaLite whom just received a nice bashing from us here? http://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/2013/02/daniel-zimmerman/armalite-wont-stop-selling-to-gun-ban-state-leos/
Personally I think this whole campaign by AR companies is more of a PR move. I've heard that most LEOs buy their own duty rifles anyways (correct me if I'm wrong). If these companies really believed in what they're pushing, they wouldn't leave an exception for personal sales to LEOs leaving them screwed like the rest of us plebes.
Good for them and good for us. As far as Ruger, I've boycotted them since the old man testified to Congress the last go round I doubt this will be different. Glock is so far up the LE communities keyster they think copper anti-seize is made from pig shit.
Oh boy. Another empty gesture from a company with negligible sales coming from LE in ban states…
Notice how these announcements are coming faster now? The more companies that do this the more momentum it gets and the more likely we are to snag one of the "big guys." As the list grows (ahem to the admins help us keep track please!) we need to keep emailing the other manufacturers and reminding them that there will come a point where they either need to get on the list or their absence will speak for itself.
The same sentiment was said at the Eastern Sports show with the MSR ban. The little guys paved the way for the big wigs. Albeit this is on a much, much, much larger scale.
With a bunch of people who were never slated to show "boycotting" the show. You guys are buying in to nonsense. They are bullshitting you and you are eating it up.
My hat is off to them buy a Double star receiver soon!
Still waiting for Ruger to follow suit and atone for their past.
Way to go Doublestar! Thanks for standing up for our rights!
My Star15 is great and way to go Kentucky boys. Now if the namebrand manufacturers would just do the same, maybe some of these states would get the message loud and clear.
Way to go Doublestar!
Police loophole…. great terminology. we really need to fix that.
All of the big manufacturers need to stop working for the government and or LEO agencies. They also need to move to more friendly areas, cough cough THE SOUTH! There are no unions. This also includes California's manufactured products, weatherby! Put your money where your mouth is. Until some major changes are made I will not buy anymore of these products i.e. Colt, Winchester, Remington, Weatherby, and Smith and Wesson to name a few. It kills me not to buy Smith products, great pistols. Apparently Barrett is a stand up company where morals come before profit. Maybe I can buy Walther, they are now shipped through Fort Smith, AR. Hopefully they broke ties with Smith and Wesson.
Yay doublestar!!!!

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 11/7/2011 (2230 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Rudolf Rocker Cultural Centre (Venue 21), to Saturday
Local troupe Outside Joke is an improv force to be reckoned with. Creating a new show every night, building from a single audience suggestion, these young Winnipeg actors can act and sing their way into and out of almost any situation.
On the night in question, a fantastic song about Community College fostered a mother of six's dream to make something of herself and become a nurse, as babies were flushed through sewers, grilled cheese sandwiches were pined for and corpses sang.
The group works seamlessly together, obviously having the time of their lives keeping up with their own antics, and sweeping the audience along with them for the wild ride.
Laugh-out-loud funny, this is what improv is all about, sharp and hilarious, keeping us all in on the inside of the joke.
— Barb Stewart
From the official Fringe Festival program:
Outside Joke returns to the Winnipeg Fringe Festival with more tales to warm your hearts and shatter your minds. Each night, the troupe will create unique and original characters based on your suggestions and follow them on a musical journey that is sure to change their lives, and yours too … or at least make you chortle.
Recommended For: General Audience
Length: 60 min.
Tickets: $10
Discount Tickets: $8 for Students, Seniors, Members of the Manitoba Improv League

Going off the fiscal cliff will impact Delaware. So, Governor Jack Markell joined five other governors at the White House for a meeting discussing potential solutions to the looming crisis.
As chairman of the National Governor's Association, Markell led the group of three Republican and three Democratic governors to the White House this morning. The group offered their ideas on how to solve the financial troubles facing the country, and urged President Obama not to pass the bill for federal programs onto the states.
"We believe that we have some ideas that maybe helpful to the Congress and the administration as they're negotiating out," said Governor Markell following the meeting. Markell highlighted for the President the difficulties states are facing. "Nearly half of the states still have revenues today that are below what collections were in 2008 when the recession began... We've had to make a number of difficult decisions in our states."
NGA vice chair Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin (R) says unlike the federal government, the states can't print money to help solve their financial woes. "We realize states will have to do more with less as the federal government addresses the large deficit and has to make some tough decisions on spending cuts." She says state leaders can be a great source of ideas for how to solve the problems. "Deficit reduction should not be accomplished by merely shifting the costs to the states or imposing unfunded mandates."
Markell says President Obama pledged to continue to allow the governors to have input on the process and a seat at the table.

PrimeAg shares rose strongly yesterday as GPG said it was seeking Foreign Investment Review Board approval to lift its stake to 16.9 per cent a month after it told investors it had become a substantial shareholder in the Toowoomba company.
PrimeAg owns 67,438 megalitres of water entitlements and 40,951 hectares of agricultural land.
PrimeAg shares haven't performed well since the company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in December 2007 after a $300 million capital raising.
The shares closed 2.5¢ higher at $1.13 yesterday, 44 per cent below their $2 issue price. Mr Corish said the company's net asset value is $1.92 per share.
PrimeAg has missed profit forecasts as the financial crisis, adverse weather conditions and, more recently, a rising Australian dollar affected its bottom line.
"They see PrimeAg as a potentially good investment," Mr Corish said. "They view a 60 per cent discount to net asset value as making us a good buy."
GPG had not requested a board position or indicated that it wanted to increase the stake above 16.9 per cent, Mr Corish said.
After spending $3 million buying its first parcel of shares in March, GPG paid a further $15.9 million at an average $1.07 per share on Friday while entering in to a separate contract to spend another $3.2 million on 3 million shares, subject to FIRB approval, since this pushes the group above the 14.99 per cent foreign investment threshold.
Ron Brierley's GPG, which is listed on the London, Australian and New Zealand stockmarkets, has been investing in Australian agriculture assets, including Maryborough Sugar Factory and animal feed products group Ridley.
Its other agricultural investments include a 14 per cent share in egg supplier and marketer Farm Pride Foods and shares in Capilano Honey and the Peanut Company of Australia.
It has persisted with a takeover offer for cotton farmer and water rights holder
Tandou has had its assets independently valued at between 62¢ and 66¢ – or about twice the offer GPG has made.
"We are not that surprised to see new interest emerging on the register," one large shareholder said.
"We believe that there is inherent value in the company.
"If the market is not prepared to re-rate it, then a corporate will or a market player with a near-term agenda.
"The market may re-rate it or it may re-rate from some agitating on the sidelines."
Tandou shares have increased by more than 50 per cent since GPG began agitating for control.
GPG executive director Gary Weiss did not return calls from The Australian Financial Review.
GPG shares closed in line with the market, adding 0.5¢ to 67.5¢. The company's share price has been depressed by a worse-than-expected loss of £36 million ($59 million) in 2009, resulting from currency losses and the financial downturn.

DERBYSHIRE paceman Tim Groenewald took a hat-trick and the prized wicket of England captain Alastair Cook as Essex were bowled out for 94 on day one at Chelmsford.
Cook was comfortably Essex's top scorer with 35 runs of an innings that saw four colleagues fall for ducks in the LV= County Championship Division Two match.
Derbyshire bowlers Mark Footitt and Groenewald did all the damage with the ball, returning respective figures of five for 29 and five for 44.
In reply, Derbyshire opened up a 45-run lead by posting 139 for five at stumps.
Jaik Mickleburgh (seven) was the first to go for Essex when he was bowled by Footitt, and Cook joined him back inside five overs later when his swift scoring was halted by Richard Johnson's catch off Groenewald's bowling. Cook had reached the boundary four times in a 46-ball stay.
England all-rounder Ravi Bopara lasted just 15 balls for three runs and headed back to the pavilion in the 20th over after he was caught by Wes Durston off Groenewald, becoming the first victim of the hat-trick.
Groenewald bowled Greg Smith with his next ball and then had Ben Foakes snared lbw as the 30-year-old South African completed his feat.
James Foster (13), England spinner Monty Panesar (14) and Tymal Mills (12 not out) made it to double figures for the home side in a dismal innings.
Essex medium-pacer David Masters took the first three Derbyshire wickets — removing openers Billy Godleman and Stephen Moore cheaply before snagging Wayne Madsen on 30 — but former West Indies captain Shivnarine Chanderpaul steadied the innings with a half-century.
Durston hit four fours before losing his wicket for 21 runs to Mills, caught by Cook, with Chanderpaul, who reached 66 not out, and new batsman Johnson taking the visiting team to the close.

In May 2010, I first posted on Blog for Iowa about Iowa's nutrient runoff and its effect on the Gulf of Mexico, where it creates hypoxia zones. It is a serious problem, grounded in reality, and Governor Branstad, along with a number of state agencies, is proposing a voluntary action plan to address nutrient flow from point and non-point sources into our rivers and streams, and ultimately into the Gulf of Mexico. On Monday, the governor's office released the Iowa Nutrient Reduction Strategy for public comment. Find the press release here.
As someone concerned with the quality of Iowa's waterways and the well being of our oceans, I urge readers to take this initiative seriously. There has been public discussion of the fact that parts of the plan were lifted directly from the Iowa Farm Bureau's policy book. Did we seriously expect the Farm Bureau to be absent from a discussion that involves Iowa agriculture policy development in a Branstad-Reynolds administration? The cynics among us are sure to find reasons to refrain from action.
It is not a perfect plan and it may not be a viable plan. It is the plan we have and my advice is that because nutrient runoff is having dire consequences for our oceans, our best course of action is to get over it and participate in the process for public comments.
The concern about the Farm Bureau's involvement is whether doing what is right should be a matter of law with obligatory compliance or of common sense and voluntary compliance. The Farm Bureau favors voluntary compliance, but what matters more is the fact that doing nothing about nutrient runoff is unacceptable.
Here is the link to the Nutrient Reduction Strategy home page. I hope readers will watch the video, read the materials, and take time to comment between now and Jan. 4, 2013. If the Branstad-Reynolds administration does not heed the public comments and do something to mitigate nutrient runoff, there will be an election in 2014 to find someone who can.

As teams of forensic police and detectives continue the difficult task of trying to identify the remains of 18 asylum seekers drowned and retrieved from the ocean north of Christmas Island over the past 10 days, perhaps the loneliest gravesite on Australian territory reminds that the sea brings ghastly mysteries to this island that might never be solved.
For 67 years an unknown sailor lay beneath the ground in the old European Cemetery above the island's little harbour, Flying Fish Cove.
His body, clad in a blue boilersuit turned almost white by the sun, was found by Chinese and Malay coastwatchers drifting in a shrapnel-ripped Carley float - a form of life-raft - off the island in February 1942.
Islanders had no idea who the lost sailor might be and carried him up to the hill to be buried, a Sikh policeman playing The Last Post.
He may have lain there, forgotten forever, if it had not been for the fact that The HMAS Sydney had been sunk three months earlier, on November 19, 1941, by the German raider Kormoran off the West Australian coast. There was not a survivor among the 645 men aboard the Sydney.
When Christmas Islanders began to put the story of the Australia's most dreadful maritime disaster together with the corpse they had brought to shore, they began wondering whether the only body from the Sydney was on their land. The Navy initially dismissed the theory - the Sydney had gone down almost 3,000km from Christmas Island.
The islanders soon had more to worry about, anyway. With World War II coming to the Indian Ocean, Indian soldiers stationed on the island mutineered and killed five British soldiers. Within a month of the unknown sailor being found, the Japanese had sailed in. They occupied the island and stayed there until the end of the war.
But the story persisted when it re-emerged during the 1990s. Every grief-stricken family of a man from the HMAS Sydney wanted the Christmas Island sailor to be their son, father, uncle or cousin.
An Australian Senate inquiry, called amid public pressure to solve the mystery, concluded in 1999 that the body was "most likely" to have been from the Sydney.
With mounting cries that the body should be exhumed, the old Christmas Island Cemetery was searched. And no body could be found.
It was not until 2006 that the remains, which had shifted in decades of earth-slips, were finally re-discovered and unearthed. Though useable DNA and dental impressions were made, no genetic link was ever made with any family of a missing sailor from the HMAS Sydney.
Australian authorities who had removed the body to Sydney University for tests never returned the remains to Christmas Island, to the fury of many islanders. The unknown sailor was reburied at the Geraldton War Cemetery in Western Australia in November 2008.
"It's typical," an islander snorted yesterday, asking that she not be named.
"They kidnapped him. We're all still angry. His body and grave were important to us, part of our heritage, but our feelings were ignored, just like they always are. We are too far away to make any difference."
There is no more than a plaque now in the old European Cemetery, placed there by the Royal Australian Navy, finally admitting to the occasional visitor that it is the spot where a crewmember of the HMAS Sydney lay for 67 years.
And down the hill, strange craft from far away arrive every day from the indifferent ocean bearing strangers to the shore.
Meanwhile, the police teams are still trying this week to piece together the elusive facts of why two separate asylum seeker boats foundered far out to sea in recent days, the identities of the 100 people who are thought to have drowned, and the identitites of the 18 bodies that were retrieved and brought to the island.

Carpet Dealers in Staffordsville KY 41256
Installing carpeting for your home can be very expensive. Carpet installation prices will depend on these factors: type of carpeting to be installed, carpet padding, and the installation expenses. While you can actually buy carpets at $8 per yard, you cannot be sure that carpets which are priced this cheap can last you for many years without constant repairs or replacement. You can actually expect a carpeting to last you 12 to 15 Carpet Dealers Staffordsville KY 41256 years if you choose high – end or mid – range floors. They are usually priced at $25 to $40 per yard. Yes, they are quite expensive but with their quality and durability, you no longer have to replace it annually or once every two or 3 years. If that will be the case, then you will be spending too much on carpet installation when you can actually use your money for some Staffordsville KY 41256 other areas in home improvement.
The first factor affecting the cost of carpet installation is the type of carpeting that is to be installed. As previously mentioned, choosing high – end or mid- range carpet can mean substantial savings in the long run than if you will be choosing regular options. The most durable and hard wearing carpets are those made of cut – pile. Plush, Saxony and Frieze carpeting are the most popular Carpet Dealers Staffordsville KY 41256 choices for high quality and long lasting flooring with equal elegance. Berber loop is also popular and comes with a lower price but it has wearing and durability issues. If you want to save on high – end carpeting, carpet remnants and bound carpet remnants of the highest quality materials are also available, assuming you want to consider them. They can be as durable as the original where they were taken but they Staffordsville KY 41256 will be priced lower this time.
The second factor is the carpet padding. You can expend a high-end pad to last for so many years, plus many more years if you complement it with a high – quality carpet padding that will be efficient and will perform well in absorbing the abuse that your floor is subjected to daily. A good carpet pad will extend the life of your floor much longer than it Staffordsville KY 41256 is expected to last. Of course, quality carpet padding will come at a price.
Lastly, installation will also affect the cost of carpet installation. If you are going to hire a professional fitter, then you better include in the budget the labor expenses. You will need to pay them for your service. However if you think you do the installation yourself with some handy helpers in the household, then you will be able to Staffordsville KY 41256 discard this last factor in your budget.

Kimmel Records Top-10 At Road America
Posted by: newsla on Jun 24, 2013 - 04:50 PM
Kimmel Records Top-10 At Road America
A late caution in the inaugural SCOTT 160 for the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards put Frank Kimmel in the unusual position of being trapped at the tail end of the lead lap -- and in front of the leaders -- for a restart Saturday at Road America with only three laps left.
But Kimmel, who was only racing in his 11th road course event in 456 career ARCA starts, pulled away from leader Andrew Ranger at the green flag, then avoided a last-lap tangle between Ranger and Chase Elliott, to finish seventh, his ninth consecutive top-10 finish this season with his No. 44 Ansell / Menards Toyota, as the first car one lap down.
"We had a perfect car, it doesn't have a scratch on it and we really have something to build upon, for New Jersey," Kimmel said of the series' next road race, at the end of July. "We can take that same racecar over there and be a heckuva lot better than we were, here, and I'm really looking forward to that."
Kimmel, who took advantage of some private lessons Thursday from road-course master Max Papis -- including a one-on-one session breaking-down the course one corner at a time, a couple laps with Papis in a pace car and a short run by Papis in Kimmel's primary ThorSport Racing Toyota Camry to check its setup -- to post a steady three-day outing.
Kimmel improved seven seconds from his initial Thursday open practice session to his final practice, after he worked with Papis. Kimmel's aggressive approach resulted in a missed shift and an engine over-rev in Friday's only practice.
Kimmel's ThorSport crew put in a back-up engine and the transmission from its back-up car on Friday evening, and finished the installation Saturday morning before qualifying.
"That was the best thing we could do, to avoid any uncertainty about it," Kimmel said of the decision, which the entire crew agreed upon. "This championship battle is pretty intense and we have to eliminate any possible chance of a failure."
Kimmel, who was sixth-quickest in practice, lined-up 12th for the start, after using his fast-group qualifying session to break-in his new driveline components.
In the race, Kimmel quickly moved up into the top seven positions and executed a solid pit strategy that would have kept him on the lead lap, until a late caution flew for a collision between Elliott and visiting NASCAR Nationwide Series driver Austin Dillon, who used the ARCA race for practice for the Johnsonville 200 Nationwide race.
"At that point all the cars around us were on new tires and we were holding our own on the older tires we'd put on about eight-10 laps before," Kimmel said. "So I think there are some good things down the road on our road course stuff.
"I really enjoyed it, we improved all weekend and the guys really worked their butts off to get everything done that they did. To put a motor in, run two laps in qualifying and then to run 40 laps as hard as we do around this place -- and the car never missed a beat, with great brakes all day."
Kimmel, who would've cycled back onto the lead lap if the race hadn't been interrupted by its only caution flag, was trapped behind the pace car since ARCA doesn't do wave-arounds to get the leader back to the front of the field for a restart. Kimmel had a strategy worked out with the polesitter Ranger's team, but Kimmel made a perfect restart.
"We had already made a deal with the Ranger kid that I was going to pull over to the right if need be, and let him go," Kimmel said. "But he really didn't make a good restart. Then, he was out-driving me into (Turn) 1, so I moved over to the inside and it worked out just fine.
"I fell into about third or fourth in line with the leaders, and I stayed ahead of the people I had to stay ahead of. Unfortunately, we weren't racing for the lead right there, even though that's what it looked like."
On the final restart Kimmel's chief championship rival Mason Mingus was one spot behind Kimmel in the running order -- though they were separated by six cars -- but on the final run Mingus lost three spots and finally finished 10th.
That kept him on a par with Kimmel as the only two series competitors to have nine top-10 finishes this season, but Kimmel further opened-up the 100-point advantage he carried to Wisconsin.
The finish was the 19th consecutive top-10 Kimmel's scored in his two seasons with ThorSport, stretching back to last season's New Jersey Motorsports Park road race.
"To run as well as we can each and every week is our goal," Kimmel said. "To come to this racetrack, where our series has never run -- I'd never seen it before the open test on Thursday -- I frankly was a little bit lost.
"But Max, who's been a great friend of mine since we ran the IROC (International Race of Champions) Series in 2007, was a huge help. Having to change an engine cost us a little track time but to come out of here with a top-10 was our goal and honestly we felt like we could've had a top-five if it wasn't for that late caution. If that caution hadn't come out it would've been interesting to see how it all worked out."
Before the caution flew in the middle of the green-flag pit cycle, Kimmel had raced into the top-five.
The series now gets back onto Kimmel's familiar ground with a short-track race next Sunday at the Winchester (Ind.) Speedway, where Kimmel has five of his 78 career victories and two pole positions.

British rockers Brakes have promised to play a private concert in the home of anyone who provides information leading to the safe return of a guitar lost at the Glastonbury Festival in England last weekend (22-24Jun07).
Guitarist Eamon Hamilton left his Gewa Tennessee Bluesbird instrument lying in the mud outside the Leftfield Tent at the festival in the early hours of Sunday (24Jun07) morning.
Although the guitar - which was in a black case with a Bronze Ace microphone pick-up - isn't worth much money, it has huge sentimental value for Hamilton, who wrote many of Brakes songs on it.
Anyone with any information regarding the missing instrument should contact the band's record label Rough Trade, reports website NME.com.

"A timely reminder of the roads not taken and strategic options left un-explored. The cumulative effect constitutes a compelling indictment of state-building through external imposition. This book blends personal insights with a professional detachment and will appeal to the analyst, policymaker, practitioner and, not least, the decision-makers of tomorrow; the students of today."
- Dr Graeme Herd, The Geneva Centre for Security Policy
"This insightful, animated volume documents the life of this renowned Afghan warrior, his person and his vision for Afghanistan—inclusive politics moored in the tribal jirga tradition of consensus coupled with uncompromising resistance to foreign dictation from any direction. The author vividly describes Haq's two decade long quest to fulfill his vision, on the battlefield and in negotiations with other Afghan leaders, including the powerful northern Afghan commander Ahmed Shah Masood. She details how the CIA and MI-6's "naiveté (at best)†about Pakistan's reliability as a strategic partner in Afghanistan undermined Haq's efforts at every turn, to the benefit of anti-Western Afghan fanatics favoured by Pakistan. Her book's absorbing narrative draws on previously unpublished, uniquely qualified Afghan and foreign sources to tell the story of his tragic death, the legacy he has left behind, and its applicability to the present and to the future."
- Peter Tomsen, author of 'The War's of Afghanistan' and former US Ambassador to the Afghan Resistance 1989-92
Edwards' perspective is shaped by her experience living in Afghanistan for the better part of six years as an aid worker during the height of the Taliban regime, an election monitor, a political adviser to the EU Ambassador in Kabul and as a freelance journalist. Some of the most captivating scenes in her book come from the months she spent living in Eastern Afghanistan with Abdul Haq's well-respected family -- the Arsalas -- a khan khel (chief clan) within the Ahmadzai tribe of the Ghilzai Pashtuns. There she receives a real world education on Afghanistan's resilient tribal structure, which the Western alliance has tried to replace with 'modern' governing models.â€
- Michael Hughes, Huffington Post
"An important and revealing book. A rich and compelling account of how Abdul Haq might have saved Afghanistan – and what the West can still learn from his singular vision of a post-Taliban nation.'
- David Zucchino, Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist, The Los Angeles Times
"A deeply-reported, well-argued and deftly-written account of the opportunities not taken ... based on the author's own deep knowledge of Afghanistan."
– Peter Bergen, author of 'The Longest War'
"I was in direct contact with Abdul Haq in the days immediately following 9/11. His tragic story is a microcosm of where we have gone wrong in Afghanistan."
– Paddy Ashdown, Liberal Democrat leader 1988 - 1999
"Vital reading for everyone who truly wants to understand this tragic conflict."
– Peter Oborne, Daily Telegraph
"A devastating indictment of the intelligence and strategic failures that have led us into the current tragedy in Afghanistan."
– William Pfaff, author of 'The Irony of Manifest Destiny' and longtime columnist for the International Herald Tribune
"By far the best account of Afghanistan during the period that I have read. It combines the pace of a page-gripping thriller with the insights of a piece of travel writing and political journalism at their best."
– Conor Foley, author of 'The Thin Blue Line: How Humanitarianism went to War'
Lucy Morgan Edwards has been involved with the Af-Pak region since 1999, and was based in Kandahar at the height of the Taliban regime. Currently a researcher in Politics and International Relations at Exeter University, she wrote 'The Afghan Solution' in order to illuminate to a western audience how the war could have been avoided, and to show how the decisions made by western policymakers' (both the decisions and their effects were often witnessed first hand by the author) have led to the present situation. Enduring themes of the book - which centres around an alternative, Afghan-led blueprint for Peace - include 'Justice,' 'Transitional Justice' and understanding what constitutes 'Legitimacy' locally.
She believes that in the UK particularly (less so in the USA) the voices of female commentators on the situation underpinning the war (both Afghan and foreign female voices) have all too often been ignored as the male dominated and predominantly military narrative has taken precedence in both the media (notably Radio 4, Newsnight etc) and the Think-tank community. This is part of the problem, particularly in a complex political situation which has contributed to fragility! It needs to change because social progress cannot proceed without a wider range of voices - particularly those of women - being heard. This is especially important as the UK risks getting itself involved in more conflicts in the Middle East and North Africa.
The central theme of the book is Edward's investigation into a major Afghan-led plan for toppling the Taliban: a plan which existed for two years prior to 9/11, and which had buy-in from senior tribal leaders, commanders within the military axis of the Taliban, possibly the Haqqani network, Commander Massoud and senior Taliban who were willing to bring about a new order. The ex King was to provide the 'glue' around which these different groups would coalesce. However the plan depended upon the West 'not' bombing the country.
Using never-before published information, many interviews with those familiar with the Peace Plan in Afghanistan (eg commanders, senior Taliban) and those lobbying for it in the corridors of Washington DC and Whitehall, as well as what she witnessed herself, she exposes why western intelligence agencies ignored this opportunity and proceeded to pit the West into an un-winnable war. Her book, which also follows her own narrative and reads like a thriller, exposes complicity and incompetence by the West's military/intelligence/political and media establishment.
'The Afghan Solution' provides a unique perspective on the political evolution of the post 2001 war in Afghanistan. As such it also has valuable lessons for policymakers thinking of intervening in other countries, including - of course - in relation to the Arab Spring. More information is available on the 'books' section on this site, including reviews and endorsements.
During the Taliban regime, Lucy Morgan Edwards supervised community and urban water supply projects for the UN in both Kandahar and Herat. She was latterly Political Advisor to the EU Ambassador in Kabul (with responsibility for Civil Military Affairs, Narcotics and Security Sector Reform). She was also 'Country Expert' to the 2005 Chief EU Observer of the Parliamentary Elections; an election monitor at the 2002 Emergency Loya Jirga (a critical turning point for the Political Settlement that followed); the initial researcher on Transitional Justice issues for the International Crisis Group, a monitor on the currency exchange project with the Afghan Central Bank and correspondent for the Economist and Daily Telegraph.
She also spent many months in Jalalabad, Eastern Afghanistan, living with a leading tribal family (that of the late Abdul Haq and late Haji Abdul Qadir). This enabled her to develop an insight into the strategic importance of the tribal belt along the 'Af-Pak' border, the relevance of informal local governance and tribal structures (not least as a means of 'holding ground' so as to provide no political space locally for extremists to operate) and an understanding of how the west had scored an 'own goal' with its post 9/11 political settlement which had dis-enfranchised the majority Pashtun. Her final job was Country Expert to the EU Monitors of the (much disputed) 2005 Afghan Parliamentary Elections.
She has written academic papers on the post 9/11 Afghan intervention and state-building process and has spoken about what led to the situation - as well as prospects for peace - on CNN (with Becky Anderson), SKY news, the BBC World Service, the Dylan Ratigan show and at Chatham House, the Royal United Services Institute, the Oxford University Strategic Studies Group, the Frontline Club, the Royal Society for Asian Affairs, Kings College Dept. of War Studies, the Carr Centre for Human Rights at Harvard, the Saltzman Institute for War & Peace at Columbia University, the New America Foundation in Washington DC, to USIP and the American University in Kabul and to the UK 'All Party Group on Withdrawal from Afghanistan'. She currently lives in Geneva. Her book is now with Pluto Press and, in the USA, Palgrave Macmillan. In Kabul, the book has been pirated and its price doubled, by Rais Shah, 'The Bookseller of Kabul', who is also selling it on Amazon throughout the region. Sadly this control over buyers and sellers of books has been able to occur in an environment where no investment has been made, over the past decade by donors, in a single print press in Kabul.

Federal government books $41.3 billion in profits on student loans
It's easy to make a pile of dough if you get it for nothing and then lend it out at interest.
It's easy to make a pile of dough if you get it for nothing and then lend it out at interest.
Don't forget young college graduates to put money away for retirement. What's that you say? You won't have any chance of saving anything until you are 50 years old because you owe $250,000 in law school bills? Wow, that really stinks. But at least you paid the salary of your law professor for a year. It takes a village after all. That should make you feel good. When you're 47 and still in debt just remember that.
A good op-ed from Paul B. Farrell at Marketwatch.com. He explains that despite how different things seem in the markets, despite the technologies utilized and new strategies employed, it is never "different this time." And we ignore this reality at our peril. But ignore many do. They've "sequestered their brains" says Farrell.
We have written before about the student loan bubble. It is in the early stages of popping. There's just too much debt, and there are just too few jobs for people coming out of school. Sooner or later those bills aren't getting paid.
I remember the heady days of 2004-2005 when I'd go to barbecues at people's houses and late 20-somethings and early 30-somethings would rattle on about how much "money" they had made on their house since they bought it.

Briefs: 'Elizabeth Black' documentary wins Murrow Award
The documentary "Portraits for the Homefront: The Story of Elizabeth Black," which aired last November on WQED-TV, has been recognized as the 2014 Region II Edward R. Murrow Award recipient in the "News Documentary" category.
The film tells the story of Pittsburgh native Elizabeth Black, who completed more than 1,000 sketches of soldiers during World War II that were then sent home to wives, mothers and other family members throughout the U.S.
The documentary team of WQED executive producer David Solomon, photographer-editor Paul Ruggieri and narrator Michael Bartley will advance to the prestigious national Edward R. Murrow Awards to compete this June.
"This is the kind of project that sets public media apart," says Deborah L. Acklin, president and chief executive officer of WQED, which helped families who did not receive their portraits in the 1940s locate them.
"Since the television program premiered last November, we have been flooded with e-mails and phone calls from emotional and grateful family members and surviving GI's. After almost 70 years, Elizabeth's portraits are finally finding their way home," says Acklin.
The documentary will encore at 8 p.m. May 22 and 3 p.m. May 25 on WQED. It is also available to watch online at wqed.org/elizabethblack.

Star Magazine has some awesomely bad pictures of Hannah Montana star Cody Linley shirtless and reportedly drunk at Tabu, a club in Orlando, Florida.
A source told the mag,
"It was weird to see him stick his tongue down some girl's throat. He was totally out of it and didn't mind that the whole room was staring at him…He was already wasted, he didn't need any drinks."
Cody is 19 years old, but still under the legal drinking age. Way to go, man!

"The real story is much more volatile and human, and we do our community a disservice pretending otherwise." Wallace's startup may have failed, but as these famous entrepreneurs all say, success comes to those who don't give up. Despite hard work, failure is something that all entrepreneurs can expect to encounter in one capacity or another. For those who persist and view failure as a chance to learn, new understanding and new opportunities are waiting on the other side.

A Conceptual and Empirical Aproach from Knowledge Organization and Management to the Analysus of the University Industry Relationships
The aim of this paper is to overcome the inability of present-day econometric models to identify the most efficient modes and mechanisms of transmitting knowledge from the academic world to industry. To do so, it incorporates knowledge-based theories (a combination of concepts from Knowledge organization, knowledge management and knowledge's Ontology disciplines), into the analysis of the relationships between the academic and business sectors. First, we address the concepts of tacit, explicit and incorporated knowledge as units of analysis in these relationships, linking them to sources of knowledge. Some activities are identified in relation to these sources which increase and feed back knowledge to said sources by five basic processes: the acquisition, combination, creation, utilization and dissemination of knowledge. These processes are measured quantitatively by applying a knowledge management model to produce performance indicators. The results obtained stem from an empirical study conducted in 2005 in Mexico on the basis of the proposed model. Suggest that the knowledge-based approach applied to academic-industry relationships is feasible and that the methodology employed makes it possible to determine which sources of knowledge, lecturers and institutions carry out most knowledge acquisition, creation and utilization activities vis-à-vis the business sector.
