YahZarah (born Dana Nicole Williams) is a classically trained R&B singer-songwriter based out of Durham, NC. Her stage name, a dedication to her grandmothers Yah and Sarah, roughly translates to Queen Mother is the brightest star in Arabic.
Born and raised in Washington, DC, YahZarah started singing at the age of 7 in her church choir. Her love for performance began after winning a youth talent search at the Kennedy Center at age 10. That was the beginning of her becoming one of the premiere go to voices for the DC area. After years of honing her talent in churches, talent shows and local concerts, she entered high school at
DCs prestigious Duke Ellington School of the Arts. Upon graduation in 1997, she was accepted to North Carolina Central University in Durham on a full scholarship to the schools jazz program.
In 1998, she left NC Central and began touring as a background singer for Erykah Badu. While touring, YahZarah contributed background vocals and vocal arrangements to Badus platinum selling Mamas Gun LP, and was featured in the video for the albums lead single, Bag Lady. In 2001, she left the Mamas Gun tour and released her debut album Hear Me on the KEO Music label. A follow up LP, 2003s Blackstar, was issued on the Three Keys label and
reached #44 on Billboards Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart.
2004 found YahZarah reuniting with longtime collaborator and fellow NC Central classmate Phonte Coleman (Little Brother, The Foreign Exchange) for a series of crucial guest appearances. With the release of The Foreign Exchanges debut album Connected, YahZarah was featured on the lead single Sincere. The following year she appeared on Little Brothers controversial Minstrel Show LP (Atlantic Records), and was featured on the debut single Lovin It.

Parke Bancorp Inc. (NASDAQ:PKBK) filed Quarterly Report for the period ended 2012-03-31.
Parke Bcp Inc has a market cap of $33.4 million; its shares were traded at around $6.15 with a P/E ratio of 5.9 and P/S ratio of 0.7. Parke Bcp Inc had an annual average earning growth of 6.5% over the past 5 years.
Highlight of Business Operations:OREO at March 31, 2012 was $23.9 million, compared to $19.4 million at December 31, 2011, the largest being a condominium development valued at $12.7 million. This property was sold in 2010 but does not qualify for a sales treatment under GAAP.
Non-interest Income: Non-interest income was $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012, compared to $2.5 million for the same period last year. There was a $1.6 million decrease in gain on sale of SBA loans as compared to the same period in 2011. The 2011 gain was higher due to a change in the SBA sales agreement; warranty language was removed from the sales agreement and Parke Bancorp was no longer required to defer the recognition of the gain for 90 days. The gain recorded in the 2011 quarter represented loans sold during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 and previously deferred gains of $1.4 million from the quarter ended December 31, 2010.
Management reviews the level of the allowance monthly. Although management used the best information available to establish the allowance for loan losses, future adjustments to the allowance may be necessary if economic conditions differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the evaluation. In addition, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the allowance for loan losses. Such agencies may require us to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination. A large loss could deplete the allowance and require increased provisions to replenish the allowance, which would adversely affect earnings.
Liquidity: Liquidity describes the ability to meet the financial obligations that arise out of the ordinary course of business. Liquidity addresses the Company's ability to meet deposit withdrawals on demand or at contractual maturity, to repay borrowings as they mature, and to fund current and planned expenditures. Liquidity is derived from increased repayment and income from interest-earning assets. The loan to deposit ratio was 94.5% and 98.5% at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. Funds received from new and existing depositors provided a large source of liquidity for the three month period ended March 31, 2012. The Company seeks to rely primarily on core deposits from customers to provide stable and cost-effective sources of funding to support loan growth. The Company also seeks to augment such deposits with longer term and higher yielding certificates of deposit. To the extent that retail deposits are not adequate to fund customer loan demand, liquidity needs can be met in the short-term funds market. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had a short term line of credit with Atlantic Central Bankers Bank for $3.0 million. There were no outstanding borrowings on this line at March 31, 2012. Longer term funding can be obtained through advances from the FHLB. As of March 31, 2012, the Company maintained lines of credit with the FHLB of $108.7 million, of which $25.6 million was outstanding at March 31, 2012.

Cuba and the United States are like a couple in the throes of a long grand passion: They love, they hate, they fight. There's an ugly divorce. Yet they continue to gaze longingly across a crowded stretch of sea water. The makeup sex will, no doubt, be explosive.
Despite the rift, 50 years old this week, Cuba and the United States spend a lot of time obsessing over each other. The exiles dream of returning when Fidel Castro dies; Cubans on the island dream of when the U.S. embargo will be lifted.
For Carlos Frias, a reporter with the Palm Beach Post (and former staffer at the St. Petersburg Times), Cuba was this forbidden, semilegendary place, the country his father, Fernando, vowed no member of the Frias family should set foot upon until el Lider Maximo departs for the big Comintern in the sky.
Then one day in 2006, Frias' editor proposes sending him to the homeland he has never seen. Fidel is gravely ill, maybe even dead, according to rumors racing around Calle Ocho. Cuba in the twilight of the Great Revolutionary's life is a journalist's dream. But how would his father react?
Lucky for him, after a pregnant pause Frias Senior simply says, "Take me with you." In a sense, his son complies: The stories his father told, fragments of a lost world, a few names and addresses scribbled on bits of paper, impel him around the island as he searches for the celebrated Cuba of golden memory.
Cubans living in Florida, even those born in the United States, must always feel a double consciousness. They are fluent in two cultures, one that looks forward and one that looks back.
Frias expresses this tension with sincerity as he encounters the place that is, for him, at once alien and familiar. He has only 12 days to recover three generations of lost experiences. Such a short visit might seem a thin premise for a book, but Frias makes up for it with honest feeling — it isn't just an assignment, it's an encounter with ghosts.
Frias organizes a wealth of detail into day-by-day chapters, bringing us along as he navigates the beautiful, crumbling streets of Havana, the slums of Cardenas and traces of his parents' young lives in Marianao.
The Frias family had been successful cafe owners and entrepreneurs in pre-Castro Cuba. Of course, the Revolution changed all that: Their businesses were seized, and when Fernando Frias tried to escape in the mid '60s, he was caught and imprisoned. In 1969, he finally left for Miami.
His son visits the sites of the cafes, the family home and his mother's school, encountering cousins, former employees and neighbors. Staying with relatives in their tiny, shabby home, he despairs at their poverty. Mosquitoes feed on them, raw sewage runs in the streets, the heat is heavy as an anvil: "This is everyday life for Cubans. For my family."
Frias is a good reporter, with an eye for dramatic moments — and dramatic moments are hardly in short supply in Cuba. He writes movingly of his frail Tia Sofia, the cousins who cherish the copy of his wedding video, and Alina, the woman whose loyalty to the memory of Frias' family may have deprived her of her own life.
Unfortunately, Frias wrings high emotion out of every situation. He works himself into a hissy fit over pizza de perro, worrying that things have gotten so bad on the island that people have taken to eating man's best friend, only to discover that the topping in question is, in fact, hot dog slices.
Frias can sound naive, as when he is shocked and saddened to hear that "Gangs of boys run the schools. Children knife other children. Girls go home pregnant." Surely he knows this could also be said of schools in Liberty City or Jacksonville.
Frias seems unwilling to admit there are Cubans who still value the Revolution, and people in the larger world who admire its ideals, if not the monstrous corruption of them by Castro's regime. He sees some tourists: "The boy is wearing a shirt with the image of Guevara and the girl an olive cap with a red star, the uniform of the revolutionary soldier." He longs to ask them if they have any idea "who that man was."
It seems never to occur to him they could know perfectly well who Che Guevara was: a leader who thought the poor of Cuba should have a chance at a decent life, an enemy of the American-backed dictatorship that preceded the anti-American dictatorship.
Frias writes powerfully and chillingly of his father's imprisonment and torture in La Cabana, contrasting the injustice of his ordeal with his eventual freedom and success in America. But what about the other notorious prison in Cuba? Defenders of "freedom and justice" who happen to be American have tortured people — many of them innocent — in Guantanamo. Frias is a newspaperman: He should know things are never black and white.
Yet even with its flaws, Take Me With You is a compelling narrative of a country that holds a strangely significant place in the minds of Americans. But times are changing. Maybe Barack Obama will address the silly standoff between the little island and the superpower so we can all experience the beauties of old Havana and Varadero, and Frias can write a sequel.

Our industry's next generation is more accomplished than you might think.
I have long believed that our youth is being misspent.
No, not my youth--that ship's sailed--but rather, the youth that we will be hiring to keep our practices afloat, to carry out our legacies, to keep our profession relevant in the minds of U.S. consumers.
Much has been said about how these young people's talents are being wasted. We've all heard the stories about university interns being relegated to back offices and filing rooms, given little to no contact with clients, made to do menial tasks indefinitely. Young hires are often not doing much better. Veteran advisors like you aren't developing these young people.
We don't know if this trend is the exception or the rule, but it's disturbing. Financial services have been around a long time, but independent financial advisors are still a relatively new phenomenon, dating back to the 1970s, at best. (And to all you accountants, bankers, and other tangential professionals who still think you were doing financial planning before any professional planning designations or curriculums for earning them were put in place--get real). So, this thing we call "objective financial advice" really developed on the backs of those who will leave their practices within the next 10 years.
In other words, our industry is still young, and the human resource skills of many of our top advisors aren't fully developed. Heck, a lot of us never even figured we'd be running an actual planning firm with responsibilities to anyone other than ourselves. It's not like we took a college course on developing new talent. And then there's the most myopic view of all: "Let these young folks pay their dues like I did!" (usually offered as an excuse for why the intern has been working in the filing room for so long that no one remembers his name).
Here's the big picture, if I may: Independent financial advice is becoming a recognized profession. Advisory firm owners must continue their struggle to learn business management skills because the businesses that make up our industry are capable of living on if the right people are trained to oversee that continuity. And that means young industry entrants must be respected and appreciated for the strengths they bring to your firm. Those owners who recognize this will thrive ahead of others.
Now, if you have any doubt on the quality of young people available to you and your firm, let me introduce you to two Texas Tech students who you'd be lucky to hire: Joshua Mungavin and Irene Quartey-Papafio. I met Mungavin and Quartey-Papafio at the January 2008 Technology Tools for Today conference I organized with fellow Morningstar writer Joel Bruckenstein--the third in a series of annual conferences designed to show independent advisors how to maximize practice automation and efficiency. (For information on the conference that just ended, visit www.virtualofficenews.com). These two students are taught by Deena Katz, still functional as chairman of her Coral Gables, Fla., firm of Evensky & Katz, but perhaps better known these days as an associate professor in the personal financial planning division at Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas.
It was our idea, as conference organizers, to include a panel on what CFP-candidate-students know about technology and how they might advise established advisors to better use it--demonstrating their value, not only as developing advisors, but also as people with life and work experience potentially valuable to you.

Traveling memorial coming to McCandless, honors fallen military personnel
There was only one thing for Jaime Dean of Memorial Park Church to do after sending her son off to war: find some activity to work through her worry.
"Right after he left in 2011, I found ways to help myself cope," said Dean, now director of Community Care for Military, or CCM, at the church at 8800 Peebles Road in McCandless.
While her son Jarret, a 2009 North Allegheny Senior High School graduate, fought in Afghanistan, Dean created an organization to assist local veterans and military families. The Rev. Dean Weaver, lead pastor, and the Rev. Paul Becker Jr., pastor of administration, both with sons in the service, were eager to help her define this new ministry.
The church's latest effort to honor veterans will be the hosting of the "Field of Flags." A ceremony at 10 a.m. April 6 will dedicate the display of more than 6,600 flags on the church lawn, each remembering a fallen American service member from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. This project has kept Dean engaged for the last six months.
"This was a journey of meeting the right people and people embracing the project," said Dean, 47, of Marshall Township. "God provided the contacts I needed."
A new church employee had discovered the flag project via email. "Field of Flags" began at Somers Congregational United Church of Christ in Somers, Conn., in 2005. There were 2,231 flags. A list of casualties, by state, was displayed on a name board, showing the name and rank of each American killed. Since then, the flags — in ever-growing numbers — have toured the U.S.
All fallen service members from Pennsylvania — about 300 — will be remembered individually at the Memorial Park ceremony.
"I wanted to read all 6,600 names," Dean said, "until I realized it would take nine hours."
Support for the event — and CCM — has grown steadily among local veterans, active military personnel, Gold Star Families and military support groups and agencies.
"It's taken on a life of its own. It's what's driving me," Dean said.
On April 6, there will be the presentation of colors, a bagpiper, songs and hymns, videos and encouraging words from the pastor. Local dignitaries have been invited to attend.
Cheryl Harris of Cranberry will share her story with the audience.
"We were sitting in the living room on Jan. 2, and there was a knock on the door," she said.
That night in 2008, her status changed. With just a few words, offered officially and sympathetically, she became a Gold Star Mother. Her eldest son, Ryan Maseth of Shaler Township, an Army Airborne Ranger and Green Beret with the 5th Special Forces Group, had been killed in Baghdad, Iraq. But it wasn't a bullet or an explosive that took his life. He was found dead in the shower, where he was electrocuted while freshening up after a full day of training Iraqis.
Earlier that day stateside, Harris had expressed her concern for Maseth to her youngest son, Adam Maseth, home on leave from the military.
"'Ryan's safe. He's in the Green Zone,' he told me. 'It's Brandon (Ryan's twin) you should be worried about'" Harris recalled.
Ryan Maseth had enlisted before September 11, 2001; the others, afterwards, and Brandon Maseth also was in Iraq.
"There's always some fear, some trepidation," Harris said, "when you're afraid for their safety, afraid of what might happen."
She said she is thankful for the assistance of Sen. Robert Casey of Pennsylvania and Sen. Byron Dorgan of North Dakota in improving electrical equipment at military installations.
"Grieving is a journey," the 54-year-old said. "It changes a life when you lose a child. You can plan, but God is in control of tomorrow."
Sharing her family's story at events, such as the upcoming "Field of Flags," is what she feels led to do.
"This is not just about red, white and blue," Dean said, "but a message of God's hand, offering hope and a call to live a life of gratitude worthy of that sacrifice."
The flags are scheduled to remain through May 1.
She hopes the display and ceremony bring healing to those who attend.
"By hosting it, we're bringing a realization to the community that we are at war," she said. "And for motorists, the public display will be an opportunity to pause, to reflect and be mindful of their sacrifice and to honor that."

Frank X Meyer (Meier)
Frank X Meyer, a well known resident of this city died on Saturday evening at his home, 305 Henry Street, from paralysis, suffering one stroke Aug. 28 and another last Friday.
Mr Meyer was born in Germany Dec. 3, 1829, and came to this country and to Rome in 1850. For over 20 years he was employed by the Central Railroad as switchtender near the station, and later for a number of years was night watchman for the Williams Brothers Manufacturing company. Some time before his death he retired from active work.
Mr Meyer and Miss Caroline Miller were married here on April 17, 1854, and last April celebrated their golden wedding anniversary. Mr Meyer was an earnest and faithful member of St Mary's Church and a charter member of St Boniface Society of the church. He was held in high esteem by a large circle of acquaintances and friends.
Besides his wife, Mr Meyer leaves ten children: Mrs. James Waters, George and Misses Emma and Frances Meyer of Rome, Frank of St Paul, Minn., Mrs George Chesebro of Minneapolis, Minn., John W of Syracuse, Alexander of Rochester, Mrs. Richard Wilkes of Knoxville, Tenn., and Edward W of Buffalo; also five brothers and one sister, Alexander, Leopold and Felix Meyer of Rome, Max of Havana, Ill., Albert of Galveston, Texas, and Mrs. William Fleming of Pekin, Ill.
The funeral of Mr Meyer was held at St Mary's Church this morning and was largely attended by friends and acquaintances. High mass of requiem was celebrated by Rev Father Roth. The interment was made in St Mary's Cemetery.

Electronic dance musicians, especially those who work alone or in pairs, usually become distinctive by design, honing a certain habitual mood (Daft Punk's kiddie disco; The Orb's creepy sensuality) into a trademark sound.
Myles MacInnes, better known as Mylo, has no distinctive sound that you can describe in one neat sentence. On one single he'll experiment with soundtrack manipulations; on the next he'll concoct the perfect Miami party song; and on yet another present deep-dish, chill-out grooves. His reputation as a genre-raiding chameleon hasn't hurt him in the least. People who dig this sort of music look forward to each new chapter, and his remix skills have been purchased by the likes of The Killers, Scissor Sisters, and even Moby.
His one true album, "Destroy Rock & Roll," gathers these diverse ideas under a homogenizing discipline that's warmer and fuzzier than the singles and EPs. It's a smoother ride from track to track, and funnier, too, utilizing familiar Top 40 samples as a kind of ironic comment on the beats he's conjuring out of the ether. The high point is "In My Arms," a mashup of Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes" and Boy Meets Girl's "Waiting for a Star to Fall" that exaggerates the trite dramatics of both songs for maximum comic effect. Mylo's habit is humor.

If you are tempted to share the quote with your friends and family, it would be best that you didn't for the mere fact that Morgan Freeman did not express any of those thoughts.
Regardless, it seems as though many people agree with these statements so I will address them anyways. For a copy of the Freeman statement see below.
I will discuss this statement in a list form in order for simplicity for the purpose of clearly stating a few key points.
1. If I were a parent and my son or daughter had just been murdered in cold blood, the absolute last thing I would ever want would be for news stations to publish the name of my child to the world. That is a complete invasion of privacy. It breaks all code of journalism ethics and would only do more harm to the families of the victims than it would to benefit them. I would not want the world entered into a crisis that I personally and my family are suffering. I would be known as the father who lost his kid in that elementary school shooting and it would constantly haunt me for years to come more so than it would if my child's identity remained private.
2. By broadcasting these stories and creating such an emphasis it brings these problems to the attention of the general public so that genuine action can be taken and so individuals can start to address and change the conditions that allow for these events to occur. If they weren't broadcast to the U.S. and the world, nothing would be done to prevent the next one.
3. The burden of providing accurate and up-to-date news is on the shoulders of journalists and the organizations they work for. If you read or heard this story, the first thing that would be asked is, "Who did it?"
4. To suggest that the reason these individuals decide to commit these acts of evil is out of mere desire for fame or attention is completely ignorant for the fact that it displays complete disregard and lack of knowledge of psychoanalysis and conditions of these minds. The purpose was not to compete with previous sick actions or to be known in history books, these people were sick and twisted in the mind and had more reason than that previously mentioned.
With all this said, I am not stating that mainstream media is perfect or that it is not flawed. I'll be the first to criticize the media when journalism excellence is not withheld and represented correctly. Nevertheless, these statements made were very ignorant and provided a very uneducated point of view. Turning off the news will not prevent these acts and won't help solve them, you just won't hear about them anymore. They were happening before the news covered them and will continue to occur after they are covered. The problem with America is that people don't take the time to educate themselves and become well informed. It is easier now more than ever given the fact that all you need is your cell phone. If anything, America needs to watch more news that is relevant rather than worrying about pointless topics that are not important in the world they live in. Do not let celebrities tell you how to think. Think outside the box and THINK FOR YOURSELF!!!
For those of you who have not read the statement or want to refresh your memory then here it is:
"You want to know why. This may sound cynical, but here's why.
It's because of the way the media reports it. Flip on the news and watch how we treat the Batman theater shooter and the Oregon mall shooter like celebrities. Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris are household names, but do you know the name of a single victim of Columbine? Disturbed
people who would otherwise just off themselves in their basements see the news and want to top it by doing something worse, and going out in a memorable way. Why a grade school? Why children? Because he'll be remembered as a horrible monster, instead of a sad nobody.
CNN's article says that if the body count "holds up", this will rank as the second deadliest shooting behind Virginia Tech, as if statistics somehow make one shooting worse than another. Then they post a video interview of third-graders for all the details of what they saw and heard while the shootings were happening. Fox News has plastered the killer's face on all their reports for hours. Any articles or news stories yet that focus on the victims and ignore the killer's identity? None that I've seen yet. Because they don't sell. So congratulations, sensationalist media, you've just lit the fire for someone to top this and knock off a day care center or a maternity ward next.
You can help by forgetting you ever read this man's name, and remembering the name of at least one victim. You can help by donating to mental health research instead of pointing to gun control as the problem. You can help by turning off the news."

Acer overtakes Samsung in Chromebooks
CNA Tuesday, July 22, 2014, 12:02 am TWN
TAIPEI, Taiwan -- Shipments of Acer Chromebooks surpassed those of Samsung in the global market in the second quarter of the year, according to a Taiwanese market research firm.
In a report released Monday, WitsView said global Chromebook shipments totaled 1.8 million units in the April-June period, with Taiwan's Acer Inc. (宏碁股份) taking the largest share of 30 percent.
It marked the first time that Acer beat Samsung Electronics Co. in terms of Chromebook shipments, the report said, showing a 24-percent market share for the South Korean company and a 21-percent share for Hewlett-Packard (HP) of the United States.
"It is still hard to tell whether it's Acer or Samsung that will ship the most Chromebooks this year, as the two brands both had shipments of about 900,000 units in the first half of the year," said Caroline Chen, an assistant research manager at WitsView.
"The competition will restart in the second half," she added.
The affordable Web-centric device, however, is facing strong competition from low-cost Windows-based laptops priced at US$199-US$249, according to Chen.
"The price war may put high pressure on Chromebook shipments," Chen said, projecting a 2014 market penetration rate of 3-5 percent for Chromebooks. The two most attractive features of Chromebooks are pricing and security, she added.
Citing data from the market research NPD Group, Acer said last week that it had topped the U.S. Chromebook market in the first quarter of the year with a 46.7-percent share.
In January, Taipei-based market intelligence firm Digitimes Research also forecast that global shipments of Chromebook laptops would rise significantly in 2014 to 4 million units, double the number last year.

WASHINGTON — New U.S. intelligence reports appear to paint a bleak picture of the security conditions in Afghanistan and say the war cannot be won unless Pakistan roots out militants on its side of the border.
The reports, one on Afghanistan, the other on Pakistan, could complicate the Obama administration's plans to claim next week that the war is turning a corner. But U.S. military commanders have reportedly challenged the conclusions, saying they are based on outdated information that does not take into account progress made in the fall.
The Associated Press said it was told by officials who did not want to be identified that the analyses were detailed in briefings to the Senate Intelligence Committee this week and some of the findings were shared with members of the House Intelligence Committee.
The reports, known as National Intelligence Estimates, are prepared by the director of national intelligence and used by policymakers as high up as the president to understand trends in a region. The new reports are the first ones done in two years on Afghanistan and six years on Pakistan. Neither the director of national intelligence nor the CIA would comment on either report.
AP said it was told by an official that the new report on Afghanistan cites progress in "inkspots" where there are enough U.S. or NATO troops to maintain security, such as Kabul and parts of Helmand and Kandahar provinces. Much of the rest of the country, however, remains Taliban-controlled, or at least vulnerable to Taliban infiltration.
The report is said to contain public opinion polling that finds Afghans are ambivalent, as willing to cut a deal with the Taliban as they are to work with the Americans.
AP said it was told by another official briefed on the new report on Pakistan that it concludes that the Pakistani government and military are not willing to obliterate terrorist safe havens in its lawless tribal areas bordering Afghanistan.
The document says Pakistan's government pays lip service to cooperating with U.S. efforts against the militants and still secretly backs the Taliban as a way of hedging its bets in order to influence Afghanistan after a U.S. departure from the region.
AP said it was told by military officials that there is a disconnect between the findings of the intelligence reports, completed in the fall, and separate battlefield assessments done by the war commander, Gen. David Petraeus, and others that contain more up-to-date and sometimes more promising accounts.

The American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and National Association of State Boards of Accountancy have renewed a trilateral mutual recognition agreement with professional accounting bodies in Canada and Mexico.
The five-year agreement with the Chartered Accountants of Canada and Mexico's Contadores Publicos Certificados was signed April 17 in Alexandria, VA.
âThis trilateral agreement represents leadership by the accounting and auditing profession in all three countries by setting the standard for other professions to follow in meeting the goals of the North American Free Trade Agreement or NAFTA, which was enacted in 1994,â said Robert Harris, CPA, vice chairman-nominee of the AICPA.
âIt is appropriate for the accounting profession to take the lead on international cooperation among professionals, just as it has on the convergence of international accounting and auditing standards in an expanding global economy,â Harris said.
âThe Professional Mutual Recognition Agreement affirms the quality of accounting professionals in Canada, Mexico, and the United States and the willingness of our countries to seek an improved methodology to meet the compelling needs of a global society,â said David Costello, CPA, president and chief executive officer of NASBA.
âMoreover, the Agreement is founded, based, and sustained on the trust of the Agreement partners, accounting professionals, and the public in each of the countries.â
In addition to Canada and Mexico, the U.S. International Qualifications Appraisal Board has mutual recognition agreements with the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Australia (ICAA), CPA Australia (CPAA), and the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland (ICAI).
Mutual recognition agreements facilitate cross-border mobility by streamlining the process for qualified professionals with accounting credentials to become certified and licensed in each other's countries. Canadian CAs and Mexican CPCs are able to take the four-hour International Qualifications Examination rather than the 14-hour regular Uniform CPA Examination to become licensed in most states.
The International Qualifications Appraisal Board (IQAB) is a joint body of the AICPA and NASBA. The purpose of IQAB is to review accounting qualifications of other countries, negotiate reciprocity agreements with professional accounting organizations and make reciprocity recommendations to state boards of accountancy based upon Mutual Recognition Agreements adopted by IQAB with foreign institutes. The Boards of the AICPA and NASBA approve the agreements recommended by IQAB. IQAB normally meets twice each year and has task forces to address specific issues and evaluate entry qualifications of foreign institutes considered for mutual recognition agreements.
Currently, there are five MRAs with institutes in Canada, Mexico, Ireland and Australia. Foreign applicants from these institutes are eligible to take the four-hour IQEX examination as determined by those state boards that recognize the various agreements. Last year, approximately 300 candidates sat for the IQEX exam throughout the U.S. covering all mutual recognition agreements.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Bloomberg LP has been making news lately almost as much as it reports the world's happenings, a situation that can't be to the liking of its editor-in-chief, the sometimes volatile Matt Winkler.
The world's largest news organization made headlines on Monday when it laid-off around 40 reporters and editors, including some of its older and best-known journalists. The reordering of Bloomberg's investigations, entertainment and sports groups came as Michael Forsythe, another longtime and award-winning reporter, said via Twitter on Tuesday that he too would be leaving the New York-based media and financial services company.
Forsythe was suspended last week after news outlets, including the New York Times, reported that top editors had elected not to publish an investigative story about China because of concerns it could jeopardize Bloomberg's terminal sales in the country. Winkler, who fiercely denied the story was killed, defended his decision to shelve Forsythe's report, likening it to the actions of foreign news bureaus that practiced self-censorship in order to remain in Germany during the Nazi reign, the Times reported.
In a Twitter posting Tuesday, Forsythe said he was leaving the company. "I can confirm that I have left Bloomberg News. That's all I'm going to say for now," read the tweet.
A Bloomberg spokesman didn't immediately return a phone call and e-mail for comment.
Winkler, who has been known to shout loudly in the company's expansive New York newsroom, was thrown into a maelstrom of allegations in May that reporters had snooped on terminal users despite complaints from investment banking clients and their employees. The dust-up gave rivals an opportunity for ample schadenfreude but the repercussions on its business appeared to be short-lived.

Taurus Model M85 Question
I just received this from my father and I need to know if this will fire the P rated ammo. Actual model number is 2-850021. Not sure what year this was purchased. If I had to guess, I'd say the late 80's early 90's. Thanks!
This should probably be in the general handguns section. However, the 85 model from Taurus has several +P rated versions and a lot of them are discontinued. Check the link below to see if one matches yours.

"Our goal is to identify new cultivars that will be of interest for homeowners and growers here in West Virginia."A cultivar is a plant variety produced from a natural species and maintained by cultivation. WVSU teamed with researchers from Minnesota and Wisconsin on a project trialing a new variety of garden chrysanthemum, called Mammoth 'Twilight Pink Daisy.' Ornamentals are plants that are grown for decorative purposes and used in gardens or as cut flowers. The project focused on breeding for winter hardiness, which is critical for growing in Minnesota, said Liedl."Our winters might not be as harsh as those found up north," she said, "but we have more freeze-thaw cycles and our hardiness zones do overlap."

I Woken up from my nightmare, I Saw my grave emptied of its wealth
Who are the jerks who stole me my jewel ? Someone dares to disturb my reign !
I'm the powerful Pharaoh, then be afraid of all my hatred
I would pursue you up to my second death.
The thunder lights the sky. While my anger resound, i finally found the Scumbag.
He's running with my amulet. I absolutely have to get it back.
Or I would go straight in hell
Rise of the mummies
Stolen from their treasure
The key to the Kingdom.
In the hands of a worthless man
Rise of the mummies
Stolen from their treasure
The key to the Kingdom.
In the hands of this man
How can i Akceptować To
Now the pursuit begins
w Koniec, at the end of the run
I caught him and we fought
Na końcu, at the end of the fight
I got back my amulet
Na końcu, at the end of the fight
Broken teeth and blood everywhere

This past April, the Obama administration signed the controversial New START Treaty with the Russian Federation. It is pushing the U.S. Senate to vote on the treaty during the "lame-duck" session as early as next week before a dozen newly-elected Republicans can be sworn into office. Disturbingly, it appears Senate Republicans are now considering selling out our national security and ratifying this defective treaty for a temporary extension of the Bush tax cuts.
Many Republican policymakers have rightly argued that U.S. Senate ratification of this nuclear disarmament treaty would pose an unacceptable risk to America's national security. The New START Working Group, which includes some of America's top nuclear experts, recently issued a report concluding that "if Russia exploits the legal lapses in New START, there is no actual limit in the new Treaty on the number of strategic nuclear warheads that can be deployed." In contrast, the administration could be expected to strictly adhere to treaty limits on warheads and launchers potentially putting the U.S. at a huge disadvantage against Russia, which already has a nuclear arsenal nearly three times larger than our own.
Former Governor Mitt Romney was absolutely correct when he warned, "The president's New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START) with Russia could be [Obama's] worst foreign-policy mistake yet. New START impedes missile defense" and "gives Russia a massive nuclear-weapons advantage over the United States." Furthermore, this treaty does nothing to limit the size of the Chinese nuclear arsenal, which has been expanding precipitously during the past decade.
The failure of the administration to negotiate effective verification measures utilized in previous nuclear arms control treaties with Russia is troubling and would make it difficult, if not impossible, for us to ensure that Russia is complying with the terms of the treaty. In addition, many experts have testified that America's aging nuclear arsenal is in dire need of modernization, but Obama has repeatedly refused to commit to fund it.
This treaty, if ratified, would force the U.S. to reduce our nuclear arsenal to a level nearly 60 percent smaller than the nuclear deterrent Obama inherited from the Bush administration — below the level necessary for minimal deterrence against potential nuclear blackmail or nuclear attack. It represents just the first step in Obama's ongoing plan to achieve "a world without nuclear weapons," starting by getting rid of our own, which would be highly irresponsible in the increasingly dangerous world we live in today. This is a very idealistic, na?e and irresponsible proposition. Russia and the People's Republic of China, with nuclear arsenals rivaling or exceeding the U.S., will never agree to give up their own nuclear weapons. America must never unilaterally relinquish the very weapons which protect us against the horrors of nuclear attack.
Rather than continuing to decimate America's nuclear arsenal which has kept the nuclear peace for the past six decades, we should begin immediately to restore a credible strategic nuclear deterrent by doubling the number of warheads deployed on our Trident II SLBM's from 4 to 8 warheads a piece. This could be done at minimal cost by returning recently retired W88 warheads to active service. In view of the fact that they constitute the most survivable leg of our venerable nuclear triad, we should also significantly increase the operating tempo of our Ohio-class nuclear missile submarines so that two-thirds (as opposed to a mere 28 percent today) are deployed at all times in order to help ensure that we can deter any would-be nuclear aggressor.
It is also critical that we strive to realize Ronald Reagan's vision of establishing a comprehensive national missile defense system to protect our country from nuclear attack by deploying thousands of SM-3 Block 2 ABM interceptors aboard U.S. Navy Aegis cruisers and destroyers during the next five years. Finally, it is vital that Congress vote to significantly increase funding for measures designed to protect us from a potentially catastrophic Electro-Magnetic Pulse (EMP) attack and/or crippling cyber attack on our nation.
Over the past two years, the Obama administration has seriously mismanaged America's national security. Senate Republicans need to stand united in championing a return to a policy of "peace through strength" and vote to reject this dangerously flawed treaty.

Japan's industrial output contracted by 4.1 percent in September from August and 8.1 percent from a year earlier as automakers and steel mills cut production due to shrinking demand and antagonisms with China, according to the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.Household spending fell an average of 0.9 percent in September from a year earlier, despite a slight gain in household income. Stronger spending by Japanese households is critical to the recovery, given that private consumption accounts for almost 60 percent of Japan's total economic activity, and the outlook for exports remains bleak. The recovery that followed Japan's March 2011 disasters has been doused by slowing global growth, and flaring tensions with China over disputed islands in the East China Sea have further crimped demand, especially for big-ticket items like cars. Slowing growth in China, meanwhile, has hit demand for industrial inputs like steel and machinery. "Industrial production is on a downward trend," the ministry said, forecasting a further decline in October, followed by a rebound in November. Embattled Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda convened an extraordinary session of the legislature on Monday, appealing to the opposition Liberal Democratic Party to cooperate in passing a bill authorizing bond sales to finance the growing deficit. Japan's Cabinet approved a 423 billion yen ($5.3 billion) emergency stimulus package on Friday, double the size originally expected. The government was obliged to dip into reserves to pay for the new stimulus, since its leeway to boost spending is limited by a legislative standoff preventing issuance of some 38.3 trillion yen ($480 billion) in deficit financing. As it confronts that "fiscal cliff," which could raise the country's borrowing costs, Japan already leads industrial nations with government debt amounting to more than twice the country's gross domestic product. "We still have work to do!" Noda said Monday in a speech that repeatedly reminded lawmakers of their responsibility toward future generations. Funding shortfalls threaten to affect crucial government services, he warned.

Bottarga seems to be everywhere these days. The cured slabs of Mediterranean mullet roe give a fishy punch to any dish they're grated onto, and I've seen it put to good use at restaurants in Brooklyn like Blanca, the upscale offshoot of Roberta's, and Hillside, the wine bar and cafe offshoot of Vinegar Hill House.
So when I saw this little Caviar Powder pepper grinder thing, it seemed to fit into the fish-flake zeitgeist going on. Bottarga is sometimes called "the poor man's caviar," and that seems to be true even when the caviar is dried out--one of these little guys costs eighty-eight bucks on the Petrossian website--but the pepper grinder format's pretty convenient, and that's actually not a bad value per ounce of caviar flavor, since the sturgeon roe is mostly made up of water.
Just like bottarga, this would taste good ground over pasta dishes that could use a little savory marine tang, or even just on top of scrambled eggs (if you really want to impress your brunch guests).

What's New
** Fixes problem where your iPhone or iPod touch could go to sleep while you're drawing. Sketchr will now keep the screen from sleeping while it's running.
** "Tell a friend about sketchr" feature now sends an email with a correct link to sketchr in the App Store. Previously it would send an App Store link that didn't work properly.
App Description
You know why you loved your old Etch A Sketch.
It was challenging. It was elegant. It was simple, and yet the drawings you could make from that single grey line -- if you put your mind to it -- could be very cool.
sketchr brings that fun and challenge to the iPhone and iPod touch. Like the original Etch A Sketch, sketchr doesn't have lots of fancy colors, brushes, shapes, pictures, or other whiz-bang stuff. The fun is the challenge, and the challenge is drawing with just that simple line and simple controls.
But instead of using two white knobs, you draw in sketchr by leaning and tilting your iPhone or iPod touch! sketchr uses the accelerometer to sense the screen's angle, and the line draws as if sliding down the slope. And if you mess up, just shake it to erase and start over.
Give it a try -- it's fun and strangely addicting!
App Changes

It satisfys the greedy monster in me.
Last week my significant assistant dishwasher was working a picket line with 40 others. I made them mini flank steak sliders with arugula and parmesean chips and mini bagels with smoked salmon, cream cheese, red onions and capers. they were all gone in a few minutes.
Heck yes mimi food rocks.
I just love the way they look! I like making mini versions of regular food to serve as appetizers...like mini quiches or mini burgers. Sometimes I make mini pizzas on crackers that always go over really well.
depends on wut i have infront of me. ;)
Sometimes; it depends on the meal.
Some things are better as minis and some don't really matter.
I like mini-things because I think they are cleaner; easier to eat.
Yep... I'm with you, lizzylu49 :) Plus, minis are just so darned cute! (In so much as food can be cute, bento boxes notwithstanding.)
love 'em.....that way i feel like i'm not eating so much!
Never really had anything mini except mini-M&Ms...lol
For me it's not saving on the calories because they're mini-sized, but instead, it allows me to choose MULTIPLE items to taste instead of one large portion of the same thing...hahaha
i often eat too many minis in one sitting! i think the real deal is a much better portion gauge.
I still need to get around to making cup pies. Of course I like mini things. :)
i love mini desserts/food mainly because i feel like i'm being good by having such a small thing. :)
I definitely feel better about myself if I am eating certain treats in their mini version (half the calories)! ;)
oh man this post made me so happy! as my boyfriend would tell anyone, i'm a sucker for "tiny things!" lol. so yes, little food definitely is included. when there was that recipe for mini apple pies, i made a batch straight away!
I'm a total sucker for minis. If its small and cute, I have to have it!
sometimes i'm a sucker for things like that. it's hard when you want a sweet but you don't want the guilt that comes along with it.
I love all mini food! Makes me feel bigger, and for a short girl that's an awesome thing. Plus, they're just more fun to eat!
They're cute, and often delicious, but for me they'd better just be the prelude to a real-sized meal ;)

Arnold & Porter
In March, along with many in the legal community, Arnold & Porter celebrated the 50th anniversary of the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case Gideon v. Wainwright, which guaranteed legal representation for indigents in criminal cases. The fact that the court appointed Abe Fortas, one of the firm's founders, to represent Clarence Earl Gideon remains a point of pride, chairman Thomas Milch said. "The case is not just emblematic of our long-standing and heartfelt commitment to pro bono, but the briefing and argument in the case reflected the legal excellence and creativity that our firm strives for in its day-to-day work."

Think of a MySpace or Friendster for geeks and you will get Sci-Edge. The intention to bring down the general scale to a science specific category benefits people of similar interests in many ways.
Above is a screenshot of how the main dashboard looks like. Users get to list down their all their favourite stuff such as movies, sites, bookmarks or even science events that are interesting.
When an user signs in he/she will automatically enter the 'Admin' view. That's where the user get an overview of the entire account. Other preferences like the photo album, private messages, skins, wish lists, reminders, friends' list and groups are located here. They even have a button for users to block other users annoying to them.
What are the benefits of sharing?
By sharing knowledge and information, everyone helps each other. This act will certainly promote a healthy environment of growth.
Like for example, if bloggers hadn't share their knowledge about things they write about in their blog, surely it doesn't help either one of us. Imagine life without ProBlogger, the ultimate guide for bloggers of all walks. No one would have grown past the blogging-about-daily-lives stage into blogging as a full time job.
As the saying goes, 'The purpose of relationships is not happiness, but transformation'.

Ever since I was a girl, I've been a fan of aquariums. There's something about those vibrant underwater scenes paired against the dark rooms that is so magical.
Adventure Aquarium, just across the river from Philadelphia in Camden, New Jersey.
We visited this week along with my bestie and her kids and had an enjoyable time. Adventure Aquarium is designed for kids of all ages, and most recently opened a new area for the 6 and under set, called KidZone.
KidZone is a sensory experience for kids (and adults!).
Adventure Aquarium is a wonderful place to visit, both to learn about sea life and to just stroll through the exhibits. Of course there are great photo ops around every corner.
Disclosure: I received complementary tickets to Adventure Aquarium to promote the KidZone exhibit.

Zachary gets connected
Related Story
ZACHARY - Zachary is connecting with more compassion for a new community-wide kindness initiative. Zachary Mayor David Amrhein and School Superintendent Scott Devillier joined us on 2une In to let you know how you can get connected.
The theme for schools this year is Zachary connected, and officials hope to create a stronger link between the city's schools and the community. It's part of a program called 'Rachel's Challenge', named in honor of a victim of the Columbine High School shooting in 1991.
"The theme of Rachel's Challenge is to start a chain reaction of kindness," Devillier told 2une In's John Pastorek. "We want to educate the children of Zachary to do the right things in life and make good choices and being kind to others."
The program will extend far beyond Zachary Schools.
"We want to get out kids involved in the community, in every program we have. The school system has been very good about helping us, now it's our turn to return the favor," Mayor Amrhein said.
The Zachary Connected movement kicks off on Tuesday, September 9th at 6:30 p.m. at the Zachary High School Gym. Watch the video for more information on the Zachary Connected movement and Rachel's Challenge.

5 ways to harness the awesome power of Mother Nature to your portfolio
No doubt by now you?ve heard about tropical cyclone Ita on the news ? one of the biggest storms to hit Australia in over 100 years, second only to Cyclone Yasi in 2011.

No doubt by now you've heard about tropical cyclone Ita on the news – one of the biggest storms to hit Australia in over 100 years, second only to Cyclone Yasi in 2011. As a North Queensland resident (though mercifully not a Cape Flattery one), I can say we are again inundated with news coverage, cyclone updates and 'what to do in the event of x' advice.
Given the talk up here is of little else, I thought it highly appropriate to write a themed article about renewable energy. Whether you believe in the carbon-centric 'climate change' argument or not, I think everyone can agree that one day in the distant future there will simply be no coal or oil left to drive our industries. The companies I have listed here create energy through wind, wave, geothermal and solar energy and are at various stages of commercialisation.
Firstly we have AGL Energy Limited (ASX: AGK), who is predominantly a coal power supplier. However the company does have small gas holdings and a number of wind farms, hydroelectric stations and a couple of solar plants in development. I am personally not comfortable with AGL because a recent attempt to acquire a $1.5billion coal station in NSW shows the focus is still on dirty energy. Nonetheless nearly 40% of AGL's energy will come from renewables once all plants are completed, plus it has a solid financial position and pays a dividend. Competitor Origin Energy Limited (ASX: ORG) owns sizeable stakes in hydroelectric companies and geothermal explorers in Chile and New Zealand, however a much smaller portion of its production comes from renewable sources.
Infigen Energy Ltd (ASX: IFN) is a purely renewable energy company that operates wind farms in Australia and the US and has a finger dipped in the solar energy pie. Despite owning around 1,600MW of power production the company labours under high debt, and adverse regulatory changes could create problems. However, this fact is already priced into the company which is trading at only 35% of its book value. Infigen could be an excellent buy, and the fact that it is already producing sizeable amounts of power reduces the risks associated with technology development that afflict the next three companies.
Probably the best geothermal power company on the ASX, Geodynamics Limited (ASX: GDY) – located in South Australia's Cooper Basin – is flush with cash and has the funding to take its Habanero project through to the next stage of development. The company is also looking at opportunities in the Pacific Islands to make returns to shareholders sooner. The withdrawal of Origin Energy as a shareholder may make potential buyers think twice, but if it's geothermal power you're after, Geodynamics would be my pick.
Next cab off the ranks is Carnegie Wave Energy Limited (ASX: CWE) which uses the motion of ocean swells to generate power. The technology is more or less fully developed and is undergoing a commercialisation test in Western Australia. The 'CETO' wave energy unit is the only ocean-tested unit of its kind that sits fully submerged and generates power and/or desalinated water onshore. Carnegie also has global business and government contacts that should allow for rapid growth if the product is commercially viable.
Finally we have Dyesol Limited (ASX: DYE) whose Dye Solar Cells look to be the next big thing in solar technology, with greater efficiency, greater longevity and lower manufacturing costs. Dyesol has successfully developed a commercially viable product and is fully funded through to manufacturing in 2015.
Foolish takeaway
The risks associated in technology development are many, but by buying technology after the painful development period and just before commercialisation, investors can maximise their returns. This procedure is still highly risky, but without investors willing to take risks, there would be no ingenuity in the market. My money would be on AGL and Infigen to best deliver renewable energy exposure, but the upsides on Dyesol and Carnegie Wave could be enormous if commercialisation succeeds and the market likes what it sees.

I just heard from Cass, (luckies4me).
She wanted me to post an update for her on PT.
She's going through some difficult times & things are very hectic in her world right now. Hence the delay on the x-mas card swap. She is trying to make up for it, but I told her to worry about herself first. She appologizes for the cards and for not being on PT and for not returning PM's and the like as well. I am sure that we can all find it in our hearts to forgive her. She does mean well and I know we all have big hearts and are one big family.
She did not ask for it and I know she won't but I know the power of PT and if any of yous can spare some good thoughts for her I would appreciate it more than words can tell. She really needs them now.
She does want you ALL to know that she misses each & every one of you/us, a LOT!!! She thinks about us PT'ers and hopes the best for us all. She really does miss us.
I thank each & every one of yous in advance for the thoughts & prayers. I love you guys as does Cass.

(CBS) JONESBORO, Ark. - What began as an attempt to win over a date turned into a several-day manhunt for a "dangerous" man - a man who didn't exist.
The episode began several days ago, CBS St. Louis reported, when Jeffery Tyler Siegel, 26, and his unnamed date were enjoying a walk outside. During the walk, disaster appeared to strike when a knife-wielding man in black approached them from a nearby wooded area."You can go, but your girlfriend stays," the suspect reportedly said to the couple, according to KAIT-TV.
The woman then ran to get help while Siegel claimed to stay behind and fight the attacker, telling responding authorities that he sustained two cuts to the chest and wrist before escaping back into the cover of the trees.
A two-hour manhunt reportedly ensued after Siegel's date called the police, but no suspect was found.
On Monday, the woman admitted to police that her would-be suitor was on his phone sending text messages moments before the attack, and she was quoted as saying that something seemed "not right" about the occurrence.
Siegel was subsequently called in to answer more questions, KAIT learned.
Though he tried to deny any involvement at first, Det. Mike Branscum was said to eventually break him by promising not to file charges in exchange for the truth about what happened. Siegel reportedly added to authorities that he had no intention of the situation getting so out of hand.
"At that point he finally confessed that he lied about the incident," a police report obtained by KAIT indicated. "[He] really liked [his date, and] felt that if he did something like this it would help him with his chances with her."
Apparently not - Siegel's "intended" deemed the entire fake-attack-by-knife-wielding-man-so-you'll really-like-me plot "not very heroic."
