Thank you for the logs.
Lets proceed as follows:
- IOBIT Products
- We note you are using one or more products from IOBit (Advanced SystemCare 5).
- IOBit has been accused by Malwarebytes of illegally using their intellectual property without permission.
- Please see this for additional information on these allegations: http://www.malwareby...howtopic=29681.
- A thread in the IOBit's forum responded to the accusations from MalwareBytes. It is noteworthy that several responses from users raising specific questions about IOBit's response and finding it unsatisfactory were deleted and the thread was closed. The bottom line from IOBit was: "No hard proof shows that IObit stole the database of Malwarebytes."
- From what is said above, at least until the issues of possible database theft and spyware packaging is resolved, we do not recommend the use of IOBit products.
- You can remove IOBit products by clicking on "Windows Orb" and then on "Computer" and then on the "Uninstall or Change a Program" tab.

We will be perfectly honest with you: Disney's The Emperor's New Groove sounds like the most tweaked-out cartoon movie to come out of the Mouse House since Fantasia's Dancing Hippo scene (or Fantasia 2000's Yo-Yoing Flamingo sequence). Here's the storyline, as we know it: An arrogant, pompous, cynical, sarcastic emperor so infuriates his citizens that somebody casts a curse on him that has him into a llama. As the llama, the Emperor is supposed to learn humility and the meaning of love (we kind of made that part up, but it is a Disney movie, so...), but instead he's just as caustic and bitter as he always is, only now he's trapped as a llama with a rotund buddy tagging along, trying to help the llama emperor get back to power.
Don't sweat it if all that went over your head, because the gameplay in The Emperor's New Groove is just as cookoo as the game itself. The first level alone is some outrageous trip on a surrealistic roller coaster inside something like a tea cup. Gamers will have to steer the tea cup thing on the track, leaning towards jumps and boost on the ride. Somewhere along the way the cup spins backwards, and with it goes the control -- very disorientating, but still fun.
And so it goes. The game gets even stranger later on, as the llama character can transform into other creatures like a frog and a fish. There are also standard platforming levels where gamers play as the llama, spitting on enemies and battling them with his front hooves. All of this is set to bright Disney gospel-type music, very much akin to the energetic Hercules soundtrack.
Technically, this game looks strong. The visual style is unique and outlandish, somewhat like Spyro with more strange characters, and the animation is great. In the main 3D sequences, the llama really looks like the film counterpart, with funny animations like the useless flailing of his front hooves. The environments are not nearly as detailed, with low polygon counts and simple textures, but this fits the films. Hopefully the designers will be able to open the game up a little more, as the levels we saw were very tight and blocky. Also, the roller coaster scene had a very narrow horizon -- not enough to obstruct the gameplay, but not very impressive either. Hopefully later levels have more going on, as we would hate for the game's entire engine to be wasted on swell character animation.
There's a lot to Disney's The Emperor's New Groove that is impressive and enjoyable, but there's also a lot of work to be done still. If the developers at Argonaut (the same as those behind the original Starfox) can add more of that wacky gameplay that we've seen so far, this could be a trippy, fun, and original experience. The game will be released with the movie this Christmas, so look for more soon.

Source: The Hindu
BANGALORE, INDIA, April 19, 2001: An on-going debate over making Vedic astrology a university subject in India has taken a new twist. The University Grants Commission's (UGC) Chairman, Mr. Hari Gautam, defended the proposal by saying that "the Nobel laureate, Sir C.V. Raman, had called astrology a science." Prof. S. Ramaseshan, renowned physicist and Sir Raman's nephew, in a letter to The Hindu, said: "I am disturbed to find that Raman's name is now being invoked to defend the introduction of such courses. He held that astrology had no rational basis. He would have been outraged to learn that the UGC wants to introduce astrology courses.'' But Ms. Gayatri Devi Vasudev, editor of The Astrological Magazine, and daughter of the late celebrated astrologer Dr. B.V. Raman, in a succinct rebuttal to the same newspaper refuted that Prof. Ramaseshan could have had privy to every detail of Sir Raman's private life. "That Sir Raman did not believe in astrology, as claimed by his nephew, is no argument against it if he had not made a study of jyotisha systematically. Mrs. C.V. Raman was a regular visitor of my own revered father, the late Dr. B.V. Raman, whose name today is synonymous with jyotisha or astrology and would consult him on Sir Raman's chart on his behalf," citing documentation from her father's autobiography.

Submissions for Fox Valley Rep's GOT TALENT? Due Today
The Fox Valley Rep Performing Arts Academy welcomes youth who have completed 1st-12th grade to apply for the Academy's 2nd annual talent contest, "Got Talent?," sponsored by Delnor Express Care. Submissions are due today, May 23, 2014.
This contest provides young people with the opportunity to not only showcase their abilities, but to pursue their dreams in the performing arts. The youth attain experience in performing up on-stage in front of an audience and receive critiques of their performance by casting professionals from some of Chicago's biggest theatres and talent agencies. The contest will take place on Saturday, June 7, 2014 from 10am-2pm on the Pheasant Run Mainstage and is free for the public to attend.
Judge Laura Durham is Casting Assistant for Chicago Shakespeare Theater, known for producing award-winning plays at Navy Pier, throughout Chicago's schools and neighborhoods, and on stages around the world. After judging great talent at last year's inaugural year, she is back for a second time. "This competition is a great way for young people to practice doing what they love," Durham says. "Everyone we saw last year was well-trained, confident, and comfortable on stage, and I'm excited to see everyone's hard work."
Other judges include Talent Agent Jim McCaffrey of Stewart Talent and Casting Director AJ Links of Paskal Rudnicke Casting.
Contestants are divided up into three categories based on grade level. The first category is for youth who have completed grades 1-4, the second is for youth who have completed grades 5-8, and the third category is for students who have completed grades 9-12. Contestants have the choice between performing a 1-2 minute monologue or a 1-2 minute musical theatre song. Participants do not have to be an Academy Student to apply.
Besides having the opportunity to possibly be discovered by some of Chicago's finest casting professionals, the top three winners receive many wonderful prizes. First place includes a value of $500 in prizes including $100 cash, free photo shoot session with Tracy Whiteside Photography, Academy class gift certificate, trophy, and tickets to see a Fox Valley Rep Mainstage performance. All non-placing contestants will receive a $25 coupon for an FVR Academy class just for participating.
First Place winner Madysen Simanonis was discovered by one of last year's judges after winning the high school division with her rendition of The Little Mermaid's "Part of Your World." She was invited to audition for Broadway in Chicago's "Rudolph" and successfully landed a role in the ensemble.
The Fox Valley Repertory Performing Arts Academy is a non-profit organization and features some of the Chicago area's most respected teachers, directors, actors and musicians. It is home to over 1,000 local youth students and offers the most extensive curriculum in the Fox Valley area: classes, camps, workshops, youth ensemble productions, and internship programs. Since 2006, the Performing Arts Academy has had over 4,200 student enrollments, offered over 300 individual classes in a variety of disciplines and presented over 20 Youth Ensemble shows on the Pheasant Run Mainstage.
Deadline for the application and $35.00 non-refundable fee must be submitted online. Participants' scheduled performance time will be e-mailed by June 2. For more information, visit www.foxvalleyrep.org/education/talentcontest.

With the series finale of "Dexter" just two months away, the cast and crew gathered for their last Comic-Con panel Thursday — a virtual wake for the hit serial-killer drama.
The producers and stars — including their fallen comrades — celebrated the show's eight-season run with both heartfelt gratitude and the "Dexter's" signature dark humor. Although John Lithgow, who won an Emmy for his chilling portrayal of the Trinity Killer, couldn't attend the panel, he taped a farewell message for fans: "I wish I could be with you all today, but as you know I'm dead," he said. "There's not a day goes by that someone doesn't recognize me as psychopath. I have you to thank!"
Here are some of the memorable moments from the poignant — and often hilarious — panel:
- When a fan asked star Michael C. Hall if he had rituals to help him get in character, he said, "I think I really need to focus on some rituals to get out of character. ... At some point it becomes second nature and now I just gotta figure out how to ... stop."
- To relieve stress, Hall quipped, "I do everything Dexter does — but then I just tickle the person."
- Hall also had a fresh reply to a stale Comic-Con question: "I was always a big Incredible Hulk fan. In a way I felt Dexter was a way to play my own version of Hulk." But he acknowledged, "He's not as green. Or big."
- Erik King, who played Dexter's nemesis Doakes in the first two seasons, said fans "have kept me alive for the past six years. Whether I'm in a Costco or the escalator, you always want me to say the thing I can't say" — and pointed to the "Surprise, mother------" catchphrase emblazoned on his T-shirt.
- King appreciates that Doakes' death maintained the "integrity" of his character's story line. "We couldn't go eight years of 'I'm watching you' and eventually Dexter says, 'Who cares? I'm watching you, too."
- Julie Benz, whose bloody murder by the Trinity Killer steered us away from the bathtub for months, said, "I've died on many shows before, but they were mostly supernatural shows so she always came back to life. I think (Rita's death) was so sudden I had to go through a mourning process ... I was very sad for a very long time."
- Addressing Deb's final fate, Jennifer Carpenter said, "I wanted her — and want her — to die. It's because I love her. ... I don't want to be calling (showrunner Scott Gimple) in eight years asking, 'Is she OK now?' "
Hall agreed, with a shout-out to his last hit series' memorable finale: "What's nice about 'Six Feet Under' is we all got to die. It's nice as an actor to put that to bed."
- Meanwhile, Hall is plotting a spin-off for his character's son: "In 25 years there's going to be a new series called 'Harrison.' Dexter will have died, and I'm going to be his dead internalized father."
"We spent a lot of time making artificial relationships seem real, and our relationships are authentic," said Carpenter. "We can't be a wrap until we're all here together — especially you people who waited (in line). So it's a wrap with you now."
"Just as you waited in line, and have been here for us, we have been here for you," concluded Hall. "Thank you so much."
Fans won't have long to wait after the series finale for "Dexter" to arrive on DVD and Blu-ray. Nov. 5 marks the release of both the final season and the complete series collections — housed in a replica of Dexter's blood-slide trophy box.

Retailers report gains, expect trend to continue
June sales heated up for stores, in a sign that Americans likely will continue to spend during the important back-to-school shopping season.
U.S. retailers reported their strongest sales gains since January.
Revenue at stores opened at least a year - an industry measure of a retailer's health - rose 4.1 percent in June compared with the same month a year ago, according to a preliminary tally of 13 retailers by the International Council of Shopping Centers.
The mall trade group had expected an increase of 3 to 3.5 percent.
Microsoft reshuffles company structure
Microsoft Corp. is reshuffling its business in an attempt to promote faster innovation and a sharper focus on devices and services.
The move by the world's largest software maker comes amid lukewarm response to the latest version of its flagship Windows operating system and a steady decline in demand for PCs as people turn to tablets and other mobile gadgets.
CEO Steve Ballmer said in a memo to employees Thursday that the changes mean the company is "rallying behind a single strategy" and organizing by function. While it has been widely anticipated, it's too early to tell how well the reorganization will help Microsoft compete with more nimble rivals like Apple and Google.
Limitless voice, text, data guaranteed by Sprint
Sprint is introducing a wireless plan that guarantees new and existing subscribers unlimited voice, text and data plans, in a move to differentiate its service from rivals AT&T and Verizon.
Sprint Nextel Corp. said Thursday that the plan, called the "Sprint Unlimited Guarantee," offers unlimited data for $30 a month on smartphones and $10 per month on traditional phones. Voice and text cost $50 for the first line and less for additional phone lines.
More people filing for jobless benefits
The number of people applying for U.S. unemployment benefits rose 16,000 last week to a seasonally adjusted 360,000, although the level remains consistent with steady hiring. The Labor Department said the less volatile four-week average increased 6,000 to 351,750.
30-year mortgage rate reaches a two-year high
The average U.S. rate on the 30-year fixed mortgage rose this week to 4.51 percent, a two-year high. Mortgage buyer Freddie Mac said the average on the 30-year loan is up from 4.29 percent the previous week.
Home repossessions declined in June
Fewer U.S. homes entered the foreclosure process or were repossessed by banks in June, listing firm RealtyTrac Inc. said. Lenders initiated the foreclosure process on 57,286 homes last month, the lowest level for any month in 7 1/2 years.

But now, as Mr. Doctoroff ends his tenure as the longest-serving deputy mayor for economic development, much of his agenda remains unrealized, despite his many achievements.
Mr. Doctoroff, 49, announced yesterday that he would resign at the end of the year and become president of Bloomberg L.P. in February.

What we did was break out our content instead of having everything lumped into one feed. Previously, we had Write Time (audio and video) in with the Ink Nouveau videos, and it was a bit of a mess. So what we have now is a total of three podcasts (click on the name to subscribe):
- Ink Nouveau- tips and tricks, reviews, and my 'normal' format of regular videos. They will be as compressed as we can make them without sacrificing too much quality. The quality will be improved ongoing over what we were doing in the beginning.
- Write Time video (click here for our iTunes listing)- recordings of our Write Time at 9 broadcast, in as high a quality as we can get. Usually ends up being 1-1.5 hours long. We're compressing it as small as we can without making it look terrible, so file size should be manageable. We only have these videos starting at episode 74, but we'll be including all future broadcasts in the podcast feed.
- Write Time audio (click here for our iTunes listing)- if you'll be driving while you listen or just don't feel like looking at us, you can download the audio recording of our Write Time at 9 broadcast. It's the exact same recording as the video broadcast, but will be a smaller size and (obviously) no video. We have recordings starting at episode 49, with some holes. We'll try to work out some of the missing episodes, but all episodes moving forward will be included in the podcast feed.
Thanks so much for being patient with us the last few weeks as we've been monkeying around and getting all this set up. We've submitted all of this into Apple, but it won't become searchable on iTunes until next week, since Tim Cook gave the whole company the week off! If you have any questions about any of our podcasts, just post down in the comments and I'll help you out.
Write On,

Matrix Theory Application in the Bootstrapping Method for the Term Structure of Interest Rates
This article focuses on the term structure of interest rates analysis in the form of a yield curve. The yield curve is a basic instrument for understanding the relationship between the price of money and the maturity of a financial instrument. It has the same relevance for all economic subjects in the form of a basic value determination. The term structure analysis can be used in different economic categories like financial management, portfolio management, actuary science, company valuation, management of firm value, financial risk management, etc. Such as basic method applied in the yield curve construction is the bootstrapping method. Unfortunately, there is great computing severity related to this method. Fortunately, however, the application of matrix theory helps us to solve this issue very well.

The paper describes the origins of accounting; its beginning in the fifteenth century as a unified concept for recording economic events and its subsequent development in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The paper looks at accounting in the twenty first century and shows how business itself has assisted in the development of accounting concepts and its regulation.

In the Beginning
Merging Development and Direction - Formalization
Accounting for the 21st Century
From the Paper:"In almost any arena of discussion concerning the study of accounting, the lay person views accounting as a mundane activity performed by individuals who have a passion for being boring, methodical and unimaginative. Frequently referred to by the public as "bean counters" and "number crunchers," the accountant has received publicity that is somewhat misrepresented. Accounting is actually a discipline that is as ancient as civilization itself and quite more complex than the people's portrayal. This paper follows the historical and developmental evolution of accounting to how it is practiced in contemporary society."

Is it necessary to install a false floor in a basement before installing either carpeting, linoleum, or other floor materials? What are the advantages/disadvantages of not installing a false floor?
A well constructed raised basement floor is a good way to reduce moisture and mold problems, as well as, providing a warmer and more level floor. Treated lumber must be used to prevent pest damage. The framing must allow for venting and drainage under the floor.
A very good yard and downspout drainage system is mandatory no matter what the design of the floor structure. The concept of a dry basement is an oxymoron!
A raised floor will rob you of some headroom. For that reason, most basement flooring is installed on top of the concrete slab. In such a case, I prefer using an area carpet. This allows you to remove the carpet for cleaning and drying out. George

I want to thank you all for joining me today on my chat. I am calling it a night now. I am going to work in the morning. I hope you enjoyed the chat and will joing me for another time and date. I leave you now with a poem and blurb and God Bless you all. Thank you!
For teenage mermaid Constance, coming to the quaint sea side town of Willowick, was heavenly, until she falls for a mortal boy. Her life is turned upside down when she is forced into a deadly showdown with fellow mermaids, to save Willowick and the man she loves.
I only wished to be alone.
So I ignored you when you called my name.
Im through with all your lies.
Nothing left now but goodbyes.
Even in my wildest dreams,
I never wanted to believe,
that my mother was right, when she
called you evil and mean.
I ignored your phone calls,
Every day and night.
We cant even talk civil anymore,
fore all you do is criticize and fight.
But little did I then know,
that you would never leave me alone.
For what I wanted for us,
is no longer a beauty-but hate, anger and disgust.
You first treated me like a delicate flower.
Your love so precious and respectful.
Then your true colors protruded.
A combination of disgrace, deceit and crudeness.
We cant even be friends now.
I still see your evil smile.
Its embedded in my dreams.
Along with your rude jokes and childish schemes.
You had me fooled.
Your deception bold and cunning.
Going on for miles and miles.
Taking my respect, trust and power.
Your wicked smile, the devil's laugh.
Still fresh in my memory
as you smirked at my helplessness.
But that was your end.
Your moral pain-a lose of dignity.
My glory-saying the truth unsaid.
That life's a wonder.
Always a second chance.
By my courage-not by your hunger undignified.
I have the right to live.
So I choose survival.
My days of despair
are now, forever gone.
So I bade my nightmares
a silent goodbye.

LORDE Announces Australia Tour Dates
Australia's favorite artist/adopted daughter Lorde is pleased to announce a run of huge dates around the country next month.
Since emerging just 18 months ago, the 17 year old's achievements have been numerous and significant, thanks to a string of instant-classic singles (Royals, Tennis Court, Team) and a classy debut, Pure Heroine: 350 million+ Youtube views; record-breaking chart results around the world; a couple of Grammys and a Brit Award; and critical praise from everyone from Kanye to Bowie, to name but a few.
In Australia, the stats also reflect her enormous popularity: three spots in the top 15 of the Hottest 100 (including a #2 position for 'Royals'); 6 x Platinum recognition for Royals/The Love Club EP and 2 x Platinum for Pure Heroine; over 16 million Spotify streams (making Royals the most streamed track in 2013); and an acclaimed spot on the 2014 Laneway Festival.
Lorde's brand new show - which includes a killer light show and a few surprises along the way - has been attracting amazing reviews since it kicked off in the US this week. All shows will be all-ages.
Thursday 24 April Melbourne | Festival Hall (All Ages)
Sunday 27 April Adelaide | AEC Theatre (All Ages)
Tuesday 29 April Perth | Challenge Stadium (All Ages)
Friday 2 May Sydney | Hordern Pavillion (All Ages)

Saint Leo, Fla. (December 15, 2007) – The Saint Leo University women's basketball team (5-2) upended the visiting University of West Florida Argonauts (5-5) with a 62-48 victory on Saturday afternoon in non-conference action.
Saint Leo senior Amanda Holloway (West Palm Beach, Fla.) scored in double figures for the seventh straight game with a game-high 15 points. Dominique Daniels (So., Columbus, Ohio) recorded her second career double-double with 10 points and a career and game-high 16 rebounds. Lauren Lee (Fr., Clearwater, Fla.) also chipped in with career-highs in points (9) and rebounds (9).
Saint Leo led from the opening tip, as Holloway scored the first points of the game with a lay-up. Holloway scored 12 of her game-high 15 points in the opening frame. The Lions built their lead to 12 with 10:40 left in the first half before West Florida closed the gap to four with a 13-5 run. Saint Leo outscored UWF 12-4 in the final 4:54 of the opening stanza to take a 12-point lead into the half-time locker room.
SLU scored the first seven points in the second half to pull out to the largest lead of the game at 19. The Lions maintained a running margin of 15 points for the remainder of the contest, eventually win by 14.

Benedict Cumberbatch's portrayal of Wikileaks founder Julian Assange in the new biopic 'The Fifth Estate' has officially been deemed a box office flop after grossing just $1.7 million, making it the worst major debut of the year so far.
The thriller, directed by Bill Condon, charts the story of the controversial whistleblowing website. The film failed to draw audiences in Britain and has now failed to draw audiences on the other side of the Atlantic.
The movie, which cost $26 million to make, scraped into the U.S. top 10 at eight, despite opening in more than 1,500 theatres nationwide.
It provided little competition for Sandra Bullock and George Clooney's space disaster epic 'Gravity', which took $31 million in its third weekend of release to stay at number one, while Tom Hanks' kidnap drama 'Captain Phillips' remained at two with $17.3 million.
The top five was rounded out by the new 'Carrie' remake, which enters at three, 'Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs 2' at four and Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger's 'Escape Plan' at five.

>General Running>Increasing Speed for 13.1
Ok, Feeling like my endurance runs are going well - 2 weekend long runs (10 & now 11 miles) 3 weeks before Seattle Rock N Roll Half. But, my PR was 2:00:33 - during a full marathon (3 years ago). I'd love to break that 2 hr mark - now 49 years old. Ideas for the next 3 weeks training that might help boost speed of the run? Thanks for sharing your ideas and experience.
I've done well racing in - sub-peak efforts, but enough to work hard. A 5K 3-4 weeks out with a long run around it, and one week out - usually 8 days because of the races it's been when I've done it - a 10K where I run the course easy before the race, then 10K race at half pace, then 5K cool down. That's been when my long runs have been in the 25-30km range for a month or two, and you might need to adjust date and distance for speed and age / recovery speed. If you think at 47 you might need a couple more days recovery, and going for 2 hrs , you might try a 5 mile race/ tempo run 9-10 days before the race with 8-10K easy before and 5-10km easy after.
After that workout, I basically don't train. All running is just easy running to stay loose, usually with a few strides. I might throw a km or two at race pace in 2-3 days out, but that depends more on schedule and logistics of the week before the race than any plan.
Viich advice is excellent and generallly my thoughts. I personally like to get my last longer run in about 9-12 days before race and in that run do some quality like last 3 miles at faster pace with maybe last 1/2 mile at race pace. 6-7 days before I like to do some race pace stuff like 3 X 1 mile at race pace or a faster tempo for 3 miles to get a better sense of what race pace will feel like. Mix in a slow mile or two befor and after that. If you are beat up, you probably would want to skip this. The last 7 days like Viich says I won't do any faster stuff other than some striders and last 3-4 days very easy runs and nothing too long. I prefer to run 2-3 very easy miles the day before with last 2 min at race pace and take the day before that off. Running the day before and those last 2 minutes prime the body for race day. I got that tip from Nobby! I like it!
Those who try, fail! Those who do what it takes to succeed, succeed!!

Welcome Back, Ye Annunaki
November 16 – December 21, 2012
510 Fort Street, 2nd floor
Victoria, BC, Canada
Opening Reception: Friday, November 16, 6pm
Welcome Potluck hosted by Mary-Anne McTrowe
Sound performance by s* (IO SOUND)
Job Interviews by Cindy Baker & Megan Morman
* featuring a sound installation by s* of IO SOUND, playing:
(( return of the 12th planet )) (RADIUS 32)
(( alien ambient )) (IO SOUND COLLECTIVE)
Welcome Back Ye Annunaki is a showcase of works answering the question How would you host an ancient alien? The artists in the exhibition responded to an international call for proposals inspired by Zecharia Sitchin's Earth Chronicles, a book detailing how the human species originated from extra-terrestrial beings. These distant relatives are scheduled to return to the earth in December 2012.
Participating artists have proposed a variety of convivial acts to welcome Annunaki families from the planet Nibiru upon their return visit to earth after a 3,600 year orbit. The projects take a variety of forms, from an intergalactic calling card, to a bed away from home, collegial gestures of kindness that reveal the customs that we embrace as human citizens of earth.
Welcome Back Ye Annunaki provides a constructive take on Sitchin's mythology, one of the many associated with the year 2012.
Welcome Back Ye Annunaki has been organized by Ted Hiebert and Doug Jarvis, members of the artist collective Noxious Sector.

This would be a cool thing to add to a Ren or Victorian game. Given that they might be world walkers, the organization could directly have gone to another world. There their advantage in magic and technology would of made the Order very important, if not dominant.
Maybe one of the reasons the organization fell apart at home was the people really holding the group together had gone "elsewhere" and was not here to support the organization.

Too many Martial Arts movies for you. Isn't this the origin story from Wing Chung Style (and a few other Chinese Martial Arts?). Still is is kind of cool.

A creepy toyshop or a place of child's delight, all depending on what you need. I see a high end toyshop, where people should look and not touch. A riot of color and woodsmell, brightly lit, with over stocked shelves. The workshop in the back. The mistress of the shop having a "thing" for shadows. (I like that turn of phrase for dolls and such).
There is a lot of dramatic potential here. I don't know what x-jacks are (assuming they will be added, like The Bag and The Garage Sale).

Dinner ala cart now takes on a whole new meaning here.
I like this. It explains a whole element of the city and how its economy works. More of these cart posts would be useful, so we can have a selection of them.
PS: The poor kids handing around collecting bowls, doing recycling to earn coins for their families. People collecting bowls and turning them in, just like states with real deposits do for sodas in the supermarkets.

I like this because it can be used in a variety of settings. You can put it in the Haight in SF, you can put it in Seattle in Shadowrun, The Village in New York, and any number of fantasy places. It is just not an equipment list, it is a place.

Jerusalem (Dec. 3)
Official figures in regard to the payment of Palestine's share of the debt of the former Turkish Empire were published here today.
The Palestine Government will have to pay, according to the decision reached at the last conference of the Interallied Debt Commission in Constantinople, the sum of 115,737 Turkish pounds in March, 1925; in March, 1926, 255,644 Turkish pounds, after which Palestine will pay 173,000 Turkish pounds in annuities. Palestine will also have to pay 83,503 Turkish pounds annually in the course of the next 20 years, on account of the past four years. After 20 years, Palestine will have to pay 5,514 Turkish pounds annually.
Dissatisfaction with the arrangement of Palestine's payment of the Turkish debt, was expressed on account of the fact that this sum was allotted on the ground of including unduly into the revenues of Palestine the receipts of the Hejds Railway. An appeal to the League of Nations in this regard will be made.

Detailed Description:
Comparing the arrhythmia diagnostic yield of MCOT as compared to standard loop event monitors in patients presenting with palpitations, syncope or near syncope occurring less frequently than every 24 hours. Patients randomized and are enrolled for 30 days. Prior testing required: 24 hours of non diagnostic monitoring,

Cardiac monitoring is used for diagnosing patient with symptoms. Holter monitoring or cardiac loop monitoring are the tests most ofter prescribed for patients depending on the frequency of symptoms. If the symptoms occur daily, a Holter may be prescribed, but when the symptoms become less frequent the diagnostic yield of Holter monitoring declines greatly. The current yields are approximately 5-10% depending on the indication. When the Holter is not longer an option for patients with infrequent symptoms a cardiac loop event monitor is prescribed to make a diagnosis. The yields on this monitoring also average approximately 25-35%. We feel that the yield on the Mobile Cardiac Ouptatient Telemetry (MCOT) service proviced by CardioNet is significantly higher due to the fact that every beat is analyzed using an algorithm and that many times the arrhythmia causing the symptoms has ended before the patient is able to press the button on the loop monitor to record the ECG. This study compares the MCOT service with Patients over 18 years of age experiencing syncope, near syncope or palpitations less frequently than daily. Require 24 hours of non-diagnostic ECG monitoring prior to randomization. Patients remain on monitoring for 30 days unless an arrhythmia diagnosis is made. The primary endpoint is confirmation of exclusion of a probable arrhythmic cause of pre-syncope, syncope or palpitations experienced by the subject prior to enrollment in the study. Secondary endpoints include time to diagnosis, time to detection of clinically significant arrhythmias, comparison of non-clinicaly significant arrhythmias, rate of asymptomatic arrhythmias both clinically and non clinically significant and a diagnosis related resource utilization. The study size is 300 subjects.

PERHAPS it is about time for the powers-that-be to start enforcing the law against parking vehicles on grass verges. Apart from being illegal, such parking is highly inconsiderate.
Many people, myself included, do not rely on the infrequent grass cutting by the council: they do this themselves. I personally cut the grass outside eight properties. I do this out of a sense of pride and neighbourliness, not to watch the verges end up looking like farm tracks.

Part of the Failsworth Learning Partnership
Welcome to Failsworth School. It is a privilege to serve the school as Headteacher. My staff and
I truly believe Failsworth School is unique in its care and support for pupils and the quality of
learning experiences we can provide.
Our recent Ofsted inspection (May 2016) said "Much of teaching is
now good" and "The leadership team, with strong support from the Interim Executive Board (IEB) and
the Local Authority, have embedded a clear vision and ambition for the future of Failsworth
Ofsted continued by saying "Pupils behave appropriately around the building, where they are unfailingly polite
and respectful" and "Pupils who met with inspectors were of the view that in many classes work was now harder,
questioning more challenging and the marking and feedback they received more helpful."
Ofsted recognised "The school is popular with the local community. It is oversubscribed and the great majority
of parents and carers who completed a school parental survey were supportive of the school and its leadership."
The central focus at Failsworth School is the achievement of our pupils. This is not solely defined by academic
standards as we recognise that achievement will take many forms depending on the individual potential, interests
and talents of each young person. We want all pupils to fulfil their ambitions whether they be academic, musical,
sporting or creative. We believe a rich and varied curriculum is important to shaping a young person's
Please take a look around our website which contains a lot of useful
information about the school. I do hope you find our school website useful. However good a website
can be, there is no substitute for experiencing the real ethos of a school. The atmosphere in this school is
aspirational, warm, friendly, secure, and purposeful to support learning.
Please do contact the school if you need any further information.

To the Editor: I would like to comment on the article ' Increased mumps incidence in the Netherlands: Review on the possible role of vaccine strain and genotype' by Kaaijk et al., published in the last issue of Eurosurveillance [1]. Table 1 of the article describes the available mumps vaccine strains. I found the information regarding the mumps vaccine used in the Czech Republic to be inaccurate* and would like to take this opportunity to present a more complete picture of Czech mumps vaccine history.In former Czechoslovakia, compulsory routine two-dose vaccination against mumps was implemented in 1987, with the first dose given at the age of 15 months and the second dose 6-10 months after first [2].The monovalent vaccine 'Pavivac' (officially registered in the newly formed Czech Republic in 1993), the divalent vaccine 'Mopavac' against mumps and measles (registered in 1995) and the trivalent MMR vaccine called 'Trivivac' (registered in 1995) were in use at different times. All three vaccines are produced by SEVAPHARMA Inc. Company, all are derived from the live attenuated parotitis virus strain Jeryl Lynn/genotype A [3]. In 1999 and 2007, Priorix and Priorix-Tetra vaccines, respectively, were registered in the Czech Republic. These vaccines contain live attenuated parotitis virus RIT4385, derived from the Jeryl-Lynn strain [4].Compulsory routine vaccination in the Czech Republic is prescribed by Czech law, covered by the Czech Government and administered by a general practitioner. All children and adults who legally reside in the territory of the Czech Republic and have mandatory health insurance, have the right to be vaccinated.Data on individual mumps cases in the Czech Republic have been reported since 1955. The case definition for mumps follows EU decision No 2119/98/EC [5] and was used even before implementation of this decision. Reported cases are laboratory-confirmed cases and cases that meet the clinical case definition with an epidemiological link to a laboratory-confirmed case.Before the implementation of routine childhood mumps vaccination in the Czech Republic, the occurrence of parotitis was cyclic in intervals of three to five years, with an average incidence of 497 per 100,000 inhabitants. Since 1987, the incidence of parotitis has decreased rapidly, and only three epidemics of mumps have been noticed, mostly involving the same age cohort born between 1981 and 1988.In 1995-1996, 11,680 cases of mumps were reported, most of them among children between the age of 10 and 14 years living in the Northern Moravian region of the Czech Republic. The same age cohort (15–19 years-old) was affected again in 2002/2003 in the South Bohemian region. A third epidemic occurred in 2005/2006, again among 15-19 year-olds, as described thoroughly by Boxall et al. [2].] In partially vaccinated populations, mumps epidemics tend to occur every three to five years. The age group that was most affected was too old to have received the childhood vaccination, but their exposure to wild mumps virus was reduced by the herd effect of the immunisation programme.The level of immunity in the population that is required to reach mumps elimination is estimated to be 95% [7]. The occurrence of mumps epidemics in the Czech Republic shows an inter-epidemic period pattern with high vaccination coverage (>95%). Due to the accumulation of susceptible individuals, outbreaks can be expected 10 to 20 years following the introduction of a routine immunisation programme [7]. The percentage of the Czech population susceptible to mumps was assessed as being 12%, based on a serosurvey done in 2001 [10].The latest mumps epidemic in the Czech Republic in 2005/2006 was caused by genotype G (G1 and G5).

Chef brings Italian steak to Tokyo
Japan's first bisteccheria (steakhouse in Italian), Bisteccheria da yamasaki, opened this summer on the first floor of the Harumi Toriton Square in Chuo Ward, Tokyo.
Created by experienced chef Natsuki Yamasaki, this Italian-style steakhouse offers selected Italian grilled beef, other authentic Roman cuisines and a range of wine from all over the world.
Chef Yamasaki perfected his craft while working in Rome for six years, and back in Japan, served as the executive chef at Eataly Japan. To best provide palate-teasing Italian fare in the authentic Roman style in Japan, he opened his own restaurant.
One of the house specialties is a succulent T-bone steak (¥7,800 for one kilogram) prepared Italian style and served with kidney beans, Italian extra virgin olive oil and Italian salt. Other Roman cuisines such as Roman traditional carbonara can be matched with beverages, including Italian beer and 70 kinds of wine from around the world.
A relaxing interior offers a homy atmosphere, while terrace seats are available, making the venue suitable for any occasion.
Weekday lunch offers a daily meat and about 20 kinds of a antipasto on a buffet. Party plans are available, too.
The Bisteccheria da yamasaki is four minutes from Kachidoki Station (A2a or A2b Exit) on the Toei Oedo Line. For more information or reservations, call 03-6228-2257.
Drinking in Tokyo night views
The Hilton Tokyo's popular seasonal rooftop beer garden is open through September 30.
The hotel's private terrace, located on the seventh floor has been converted into a wide-open beer garden with a total of 180 seats.
Open from 5:30 p.m. to 10 p.m., customers can enjoy unlimited beverages including beer on tap, frozen mojitos, red and white wine with light foods such as fried chicken and french fries while enjoying a splendid, unobstructed Tokyo view in the night breeze.
This year, sparkling wine has been added to the menu. Additionally, to accommodate people who want to drop in even by themselves, special counter seats are offered on the west side where customers can enjoy the sunset view.
The beer garden is available for ¥3,300 including tax and a service charge for 90 minutes with unlimited drinks. Both drinks and foods are self-service. It will be closed in inclement weather.
The Hilton Tokyo is two minutes from Exit C8 of Nishi-Shinjuku Station (Marunouchi Line) or 10 minutes from the West Exit of Shinjuku Station (various lines). For more information or reservations, call 03-3344-5111 or visit www.tokyo.hilton.com .

Criminal. Affirms suspension of Adams' driver's license, registration and the ability to register other vehicles following his conviction of possession of marijuana. The state must demonstrate that a defendant made more than an incidental use of a motor vehicle in committing his offense, but once the state makes this showing, then a trial court must order the defendant's driver's license, registration and ability to register other vehicles suspended. The court may exercise its discretion only in setting the length of that suspension.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration announced recently that it is beginning to work toward vehicle-to-vehicle, or V2V, communication where cars will exchange safety data to help prevent crashes.
Essentially, cars will be able to "talk" to each other, exchanging data such as speed and position, and then will provide a warning to drivers who could be in danger of crashing in certain situations such as passing on a two-lane road (a potential head-on collision), turning left across oncoming traffic or two vehicles approaching an intersection that could collide.
NHTSA research indicates that the V2V technology can prevent many car accidents involving two or more cars. In addition to preventing collisions and reducing occupant injury (which helps keep car insurance rates low), these systems also would help improve traffic flow, which would save drivers time as well as save on gas.
NHTSA said that the technology currently in development would not automatically operate the car, such as in braking or steering, though it said it is considering integrating these systems in the future. In addition, the V2V technology does not collect personal data or track vehicle movement and would contain multiple layers of security and privacy protection.
What do you think of this new technology? Will it really make driving safer?

text: Hey everyone, long time reader (admittedly probably everyday), but have never really posted much. Just some quick insight and short story. I am a student at Purdue, but currently down in Arizona on an internship for landscape architecture. First off, I want to apologize to everyone back in the great state of Indiana; I talked to my dad last night and he said they had snow and of course I responded that it was 78 degrees here and I was hot, needless to say when I come back for 2 weeks in mid-December I will be freezing. I also plan on coming to a game or two so AREA55 I hope to join you for those!!! Anyways, sorry for the life story. Tonight I will be lucky enough to be going to the game in Phoenix. I went to the owner of the company I am interning for (HUGE Suns fan) and asked her what the best and cheapest way to get tickets to the game tonight would be and she looked at me for a second, remembered I'm the biggest Pacers fan down here, and said, "Just go with me, but no wearing Pacers gear!" So, needless to say, tonight I will be rocking out some Pacers gear down in the 13th row behind the Pacers bench. I plan on taking my camera and going early. I believe the doors open at 5 so I will be going and hopefully seeing the shoot around. I know the chances aren't likely but maybe I can get a picture with my boy Roy, and McRoberts. EVERYONE enjoy the game tonight. You know you will have a great fan cheering them on down here in Phoenix. I will try and post some pictures tomorrow.

Whitchurch 3 Downton 0.
A second half brace from young Shane Lock and a strike from Luke Walker were enough to ease past struggling Downton on Saturday and give the Jam Boys the ideal preparation for Tuesday's League Cup semi-final with Petersfield Town.
Despite last Tuesday's abandonment the Longmeadow pitch was heavy but playable and Whitchurch immediately pressed Downton looking for the early goal.
Walker picked the ball up 20 yards out but his shot was saved by Downton keeper Charlie Aldridge and with Whitchurch pressing it was not long before Walker had another opportunity, again pushed over the cross bar by Aldridge.
Despite Whitchurch's attacking game Downton stood firm and continued to deny them and were gradually finding space to ask questions of the Whitchurch defence. The second half got underway with the temperature and light fading and Whitchurch went for the win.
Just before the hour boss Jim Macey replaced Isaac Sedu with former Lion Joe Harrisand the change had an immediate effect as Harris found Walker whose shot was parried down into the path off Lock who put Whitchurch 1-0 up.
Dave Asker was brought on to replace the injured Scott Hassell and Lock was asked to play more centrally with Walker out wide and this change also soon paid off with Walker finding the net to give Whitchurch their second goal.
They were then in control and Harris sooon found Lock who beat Aldridge to make it 3-0. Tom Lockyer went on to replace Lock and was immediately involved in the action working well with Walker.
This was a game Whitchurch needed to win as the break through Christmas and the bad weather had taken the edge of their game.
Adam Pearson and Pa Touray were both contenders for man of the match but the hard working Touray just edged it with his efforts and control in midfield.

Defender Rocha came off during the first half of the 3-2 defeat by Colchester on Saturday with an ankle knock and striker Connolly had to be withdrawn at the interval after tweaking his hamstring.
Caretaker boss Guy Whittingham will see his threadbare squad reduced to just 15 senior players if the experienced duo are ruled out.
Gabor Gyepes is poised to return at centre-half while Liam Walker could replace Connolly in the starting line-up after coming on for the Irishman at the weekend.
Pompey have lost their last seven npower League One matches and are now just two points ahead of bottom club Hartlepool.

It Came From The Library: 3by Food Network Kitchen in News, March 20th, 2009
This week I've got porkfat on the brain-if not on the tongue. And the latter's a darn shame, considering what science tells us about the effect on the brain of porkfat on the tongue. Here is the Wall Street Journal Magazine on the neuroscience of lard (note: the following quote may not be suitable for children under 12, or the merely infantile.):
"Try [lardo] alone on the tongue. It melts into a buttery pool as the mouth produces a tide of saliva. The heart quickens. There's even science to back up that claim: Studies have discovered that when fat is on the tongue the body releases endorphins, which creates an elated mood. Consider it a digestive orgasm."
And you wonder why I've got porkfat on the brain?
This week, the WSJ added its voice to the growing movement to rescue lard from decades of infamy. The paper's website ran a terrific multimedia package on the growing respect the stuff-the good stuff, that is; not the mass-produced hydrogenated crap-is getting from chefs, sophisticated home cooks, and even nutritionists. I defy anyone to watch Chef Ignacio Mattos prepare lardo from a 2-inch-thick slab of backfat and not feel an aching, atavistic hunger.
And now for some cognitive dissonance:
There are other, far more serious reasons for all of us to have pork on the brain these days, as the NYTimes' Nicholas Kristof makes clear in two recent editorials. Kristof directs his attention to the emerging scientific consensus that the nontherapeutic use of antibiotics in animal feed is a major factor in the rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria ('super-bugs'). His specific concern is with the pork industry's role in the emergence of a new strain of MRSA, an antibiotic-resistant staph infection that kills more than 18,000 Americans annually. According to one study, seventy percent of all antibiotics in the United States go to healthy livestock. Kristof makes it clear that it's hard to overstate the threat to public health this poses. Legislation to ban nontherapeutic use of antibiotics in livestock will be introduced in the House this week.
We'll be following it closely.
