- Crime and punishment March 3
The trial of double amputee and former Olympian Oscar Pistorius began today with the "Blade Runner" pleading not guilty to the murder of his girlfriend, model Reeva Steenkamp. The case, which is transfixing South Africa, has dedicated two 24-hour television channels to the spectacle.
After the proceedings started 90 minutes late, Pistorius pleaded not guilty to the four charges against him, including murder and illegal possession of ammunition. He insists he thought Steencamp was an intruder when he shot her four times with a 9mm gun on Valentine's Day 2013. The case opened dramatically with a witness, a neighbor, telling the court she heard "bloodcurdling screams" from a woman followed by a round of gunfire.
"You can't translate it into words. The anxiousness in her voice, and fear. It leaves you cold," the witness told the court.
The trial is expected to last three weeks.- - Jordan Valinsky

FDA sees promise in Alzheimer's imaging drug
A federal panel of medical experts said Thursday a first-of-a-kind imaging chemical designed to help screen for Alzheimer's disease could be useful pending additional study and training for physicians. The Food and Drug Administration panel of advisers voted 16-0 in favor of approval for Eli Lilly's Amyvid on the condition that the company demonstrates the images can be consistently interpreted by physicians who have received training in reading the scans. Without those requirements the panel voted 13-3 against approval for the injection in an earlier vote. The FDA is not required to follow the panel's advice, though it often does.

Welcome to SwellWatch Mobile.Home
Surf Synopsis
Today (Sunday) is a small day for surf in SoCal. Southern hemi builds Monday into Tuesday. SE swell from Odile is then due to build Tuesday into Wednesday. Thursday the 18th, as SE swell remains, light NW should come into the background, although a better sized NW swell is being tracked for the 21st-22nd. Condition-wise: heatwave dwindles during the second half of the week although precip chances are in the forecast; winds remain fair through the forecast; the tide relaxes a bit over the next couple days; and water temps are fair.
Early this morning periods were primarily running 11 seconds from 190° and 10 seconds from 265°.
Most all breaks were running knee to waist high.
Swell Forecast and Schedule
Buoys near the SoCal coast show 3' seas, but with periods so short the energy is weak and not breaking much bigger.
High tide runs deep today but will relax a bit over the next couple days. Today we have a 2.3' low around 7:30 AM, a 5.1' high around 2:00 PM, and then a 1' low around 9:30 PM.
Water temps were running 68-72 in SD, 69-72 in OC, 70-74 in LA, 69 in VC, and 68 in SB.
Swell-wise: While there isn't much in the way of waves in SoCal today, this should be the smallest day of the week.
Monday the 15th (building day) into Tuesday the 16th (peak day) we should see long period swell from New Zealand activity that peaked about 10 days ago. We're only getting a glancing blow from this system with swell angled from 210° with 18- to 20-second periods and size maxing out around chest high at south facing breaks in SoCal when this swell peaks Tuesday the 16th (Monday starts out smaller).
Tuesday the 16th, when the New Zealand swell peaks, we should also see swell build from Odile. While Odile is a category 4 storm — expected to blow 150 mph winds in the next 12 hours near the coast of Cabo — and while it is expected to take the northerly Baja route toward SoCal like Norbert and Marie did, we may only see moderate surf out of this system. Models are all over the place with this storm with the National Hurricane Center being rather robust, but many weather and wave models backing off over the last 12 hours. What we do know is that swell from around 165-170° is due in SoCal late Tuesday the 16th peaking Wednesday the 17th with periods around 12-14 seconds. Size though is what matters in this case, which hinges on how close to Baja this system stays.
According to the models last week (and even last night) we were looking at surf nearing DOH by Wednesday, but this morning's models show a now close-to-Baja scenario, resulting in less fetch with size reaching head high max in SoCal, which is what I'm calling for today. Bear in mind also that 165° is a tough angle for SoCal, and when Odile peaks with the 150 mph winds expected in the next 12 hours, this storm's position would be angled on a steep SE swell course for SoCal (another reason I'm dropping the call to head high max in SoCal). The proximity of such a storm though only provides a 12-24 hour confirmation window, so it is (frustratingly) too early to call with near-certainty today.
As Odile's swell lingers Thursday the 18th we should also see light NW ground swell from some activity spinning off the Aleutians this morning. This isn't much, about waist high for west facing breaks, but more activity is starting to spin up in this region, signaling the change in season is upon us once again; in fact...
Sunday the 21st into Monday the 22nd we could see moderate NW ground swell from what the 72h models say will be a fairly sizable system coming out of the western Pacific, gaining strength south of the Aleutians, and heading into the Gulf (typical of a wintertime storm). This, so far, looks like a chest high swell for SoCal, angled from 305° with 14-second periods. It's too early to make that call today, but I'll stay on top of it and keep you posted.
Lastly, the potential for hurricane swell on the 21st has been dropped from the charts. Models are now downgrading the the next hurricane to follow Odile, with the next tropical storm being weaker...by the looks of things today.
Here's how the day-to-day is breaking down so far:
Monday the 15th should see spotty SW swell fill in throughout the day with peak sets up to chest high at times, but average waist high.
Tuesday the 16th is expected to run chest high at south facing spots early. Swell from Odile should fill in throughout the day with top spots (that can work a SE swell) seeing some head high sets out of this.
Wednesday the 17th, so far, is looking at the peak of Odile. According to the models today, we should see chest to head high surf at most south facing breaks with some overhead pluses at times at standouts mostly in OC.
Thursday the 18th is expected to run chest to head high at south facing breaks with swell dropping off by late morning. West facing breaks should see light NW ground swell in the waist high range (bigger at SW exposed spots pulling in some Odile energy).
Friday the 19th is expected to see swell back off from Odile as light NW ground swell lingers. Most all breaks are looking at waist high waves, chest high at times at standout south facing spots.
Saturday the 20th looks like a knee to waist high most everywhere.
Sunday the 21st into Monday the 22nd could see NW swell build into SoCal. So far, Wednesday would see waist high waves early at west facing breaks, building later in the day.
Monday the 22nd, so far, is looking at chest high waves at west facing breaks, knee to waist at south facing spots.
Weather Outlook
High pressure over the region keeps the heat pump crankin' through Tuesday with beach highs around 80°. However, this kind of heat-waves tends to induce a thermal inversion, so marine layer can be thick for the early AM hours at the coast, though burn-off should be timely. We also have a slight offshore effect from the high, so afternoon cooling will tend to be a tad later (as seabreeze gets delayed).
Wednesday is when we'll see change. The high breaks down as a trough of low pressure pushes south, but then we also have Odile heading toward our area. The trough and Odile are battling it out on the models: if the trough wins, we'll see cooling from an increased onshore flow as Odile gets pushed over Baja before nearing our border; if Odile triumphs, then we could see rain by Thursday as Odile continues to march north; if both titans clash, then we're in for humid yet slightly cooler weather during the second half of the week. Gotta wait and see how things unfold over the next 48 hours.
Wind Outlook
Winds at 7:00 AM were light and variable most everywhere. Afternoon onshores are expected to reach 9-14 mph, with onshores picking up later (well after noon versus the usual by-noon). No major change is expected through Tuesday. Wednesday should then see afternoon onshores pick up by noon (still 9-14 mph).
Until my next report (Tuesday), take care, be safe, and smile in the lineup!

Engagement ring glows when fiancé is near
Updated On: May 24 2013 08:32:22 PM CDT
A San Francisco man brings new meaning to the tune "You Light Up My Life," proposing to his girlfriend with an engagement ring that glows when he is near.
Electrical engineer Ben Kokes, 36, secretly spent months working on the titanium ring for his girlfriend, Julie.
It has 23 stones -- 13 diamonds and 10 sapphires.
Inside the ring, Kokes embedded a copper coil that lights up when it comes close to an induced alternating magnetic field, according to NBC News.
That magnetic field comes from a specially-crafted bracelet he wears. When he gets about 4 inches away, the ring lights up in response.
Kokes had planned to propose to Julie during a hike, but fog forced them into an ice cream shop in San Francisco, where his invention worked like a charm.
"She said: 'Oh my God -- that's incredible!'" Kokes said of Julie's reaction when he told her he made the ring.
The original plan was to take Julie to a professional jeweler for a permanent ring, but Koke told CTV she wants to keep what he's made her.
He's working on a couple of updates to the ring and making sure the stones are more secure.

Tesoro Corporation Stock Buy Recommendation Reiterated (TSO)
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- The revenue growth came in higher than the industry average of 13.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 3.9%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- The current debt-to-equity ratio, 0.38, is low and is below the industry average, implying that there has been successful management of debt levels. Along with the favorable debt-to-equity ratio, the company maintains an adequate quick ratio of 1.04, which illustrates the ability to avoid short-term cash problems.
- Current return on equity exceeded its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a clear sign of strength within the company. Compared to other companies in the Oil, Gas & Consumable Fuels industry and the overall market, TESORO CORP's return on equity exceeds that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- Powered by its strong earnings growth of 71.79% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 114.59% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Regarding the stock's future course, although almost any stock can fall in a broad market decline, TSO should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed a very nice gain in the past year.

Lam, David. 1989. "Population Growth, Age Structure, and Age-Specific Productivity." Journal of Population Economics, 2: 189-210.
Motivated by empirical evidence that fluctuations in age structure affect relative wages across age groups, this paper asks whether there is a steady-state age distribution that maximizes the lifetime wages of a representative worker. The paper proves the surprising result that in a pure labor economy with any constant returns technology, a uniform age distribution minimizes lifetime wages. Skewed age distributions, generated by either positive or negative population growth rates, generate unambiguously higher lifetime wages than a stationary population, in spite of possible reductions in per capita output in every period. The presence of non-labor factors complicates, but does not necessarily reverse, this result. The paper relates the beneficial effects of higher rates of population growth on lifetime wages in the pure labor economy with imperfect substitutability across age groups to the benefits of population growth that appear in overlapping-generationn consumption loan models with intergenerational transfers.

Is HHS Compromising with Insurers?
I'm not sure HHS' statement that health insurers reneged on a "previous commitment make in a March letter to 'make preexisting condition exclusion a thing of the past" is truly accurate. After all, by dropping child-only policies, health plans were basically forfeiting a game they considered unwinnable.
But the letter was obviously meant to encourage insurers to reconsider child-only coverage, and perhaps make a good faith effort to ensure health plans that HHS wasn't trying to bankrupt them.
For its part, the insurance industry—via Karen Ignagni, President and CEO of America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP)—issued a typically dramatic statement—essentially indicating that the provisions have now allowed millions of children to receive access to affordable healthcare coverage.
So are HHS and health insurers now on the same page? They're getting closer, perhaps. But both are still at the mercy of the states. In issuing clarifications that do not preclude regulations already in place—many that just recently emerged when insurers began dropping child only policies—HHS has effectively punted oversight back to the states, at least until healthcare reform officially gets its teeth in 2014.

This is the first time i've purchased hosting so had a huge learning curve designing my website on Wordpress.
I've been locked out of my account (mainly through my own stupidity) on 3 occasions and the support team have been outstanding. They've rectified it each and every time quickly and efficiently.
This includes Dec 27 (after boxing day) when they were overloaded with requests. I still managed to get everything resolved in less than an hour.
I can't recommend their service enough! Great value and outstanding customer care for a noob.

The Muslim community is "shaken" by the attack, especially since it happened during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) said in a press release Thursday night.
"Such hateful and cowardly acts are abhorrent to all Canadians who stand united in condemning all crimes motivated by xenophobia and hatred," said Ihsaan Gardeen, NCCM executive director.

Twin brothers Moustafa and Mahmoud Elgamal were riding their bikes along Bay Street North, near Cannon Street West around 12:30 a.m., said Sayed Tora, the mosque's imam. He spoke to the 20-year-olds shortly after the incident happened.
A group of about 10 to 12 people gathered at a corner began yelling and mocking them, Tora said.
He said the brothers didn't respond and kept riding. That's when three of the men ran toward them and hit them from behind.
Detective Carmen Pietroniro said one suspect pulled out a pocket knife and another yelled a "racial epithet."
Pietroniro said he was still trying to sort through exactly what was said, but the remarks targeted a particular race.
Mahmoud suffered a severe wound on the right side of his face and lower lip, as well as cuts on his right foot, Tora said.
Moustafa fell off his bike and has a concussion and deep wound on his left knee.
Both victims were taken to hospital as a precaution and released.
Pietroniro said police have identified two suspects — males in their late teens. No charges have been laid. The investigation is ongoing.
The suspects and victims were not known to each other.

Heavy rains force state of emergency in Wawa, Ont.
CTVNews.ca Staff
Published Friday, October 26, 2012 8:35AM EDT
Last Updated Friday, October 26, 2012 8:53PM EDT
The northern Ontario town of Wawa has declared a state of emergency, after a record amount of rain caused flooding throughout the area.
The mayor of Wawa, Linda Nowicki, called the state of emergency late Thursday night after rains washed out all major roads leading in and out of the town of 3,000.
No one was injured as a result.
The rains have now stopped but they caused a creek to overflow and wash out a large section of the TransCanada Highway -- Highway 17 -- which leads into town, badly damaging the Northern Lights Motel, located alongside the highway. As well, the road near a Ford dealership crumbled away, sending minivans into a large sinkhole.
"The owner of the car dealership was called to move his vehicles because they were dropping into the big hole," Nowicki told CTV News by phone Friday morning
The town's hospital was also affected when water flooded the basement apartments sometimes used by doctors.
The main road through town, Highway 101, was closed, as was another road that leads to the nearby First Nations reserve.
While there's been little flooding, all road traffic is currently at a standstill, Nowicki said.
"So within the town of Wawa itself, we don't have any problems; it's the areas beyond, the outlying areas," she said.
An emergency team from the OPP and the township's fire and other emergency services stayed up overnight to assess the damage.
They also personally called all residents in the areas affected to warn them not to travel and to remain near their phones. Mayor Nowicki said she herself phoned more than 250 families.
If necessary, outside help will be sought, Nowicki said, but at the moment, that is not needed.
She says it will be some time before roads can be temporarily reconnected.

Port dispute end in sight, but when?
Relevant offers
The end seems to be in sight for the long-running Auckland waterfront industrial dispute, but just when it will be settled is still a little murky.
The Maritime Union has welcomed a decision by Ports of Auckland (POAL) to agree to recommendations made by the Employment Relations Authority (ERA) in a long-running dispute with its union-aligned workers.
In a statement, POAL chief executive Tony Gibson said the company was not happy with aspects of the recommendations, but it was "willing to compromise in order to do a deal".
Details of the recommendations made by ERA facilitator Alastair Dumbleton remain confidential.
"Accepting the recommendations means compromise on both sides, but it also offers significant benefits for the port, port staff, their families, and Auckland as a whole," Gibson said.
"Last year [Maritime Union president] Garry Parsloe gave the [Auckland] Mayor an assurance that the union would 'consider and respond in a positive way to the recommendations of the facilitator', so I am hopeful that the Maritime Union will also accept the recommendations without further delay."
In response Parsloe said the union welcomed POAL's statement that it was "willing to compromise on the basis of the recommendations of the facilitator, to reach the settlement of a collective agreement at the port".
However, Parsloe's statement indicated POAL's decision was only the beginning of another collective agreement negotiation.
He said the union considered ERA's recommendations "to be a useful basis to enter into what it hopes will be a successful round of negotiations with POAL, as is recommended by the authority, to reach a settlement that is fair to all the parties".
He said the union wanted to enter into negotiations as soon as possible.
"The union is seeking the agreement of POAL to an all up meeting of members to enable members to consider the recommendations and any progress made in bargaining on them in the interim."
Last week Parsloe said there was no guarantee ERA's non-binding recommendations would bring an end to the standoff.
The dispute, which began in September 2011, was centred around the port's plan to introduce flexible working conditions to improve productivity and competitiveness.
It prompted rolling strikes, lock-outs, mass protests and bitter public debate, as well as inconveniencing retailers and port customers.
Most of the industrial action had died down by April last year, when the two parties sought help from the Government to hash out a collective agreement.
Both the Maritime Union and POAL said they would not make any further comment until the recommendations were made public.

I own it in an IRA and Fidelity does not take tax out. Full dividend. Gravy.
Paypal's niche is online where you do not need to enter any CC info or personal info. Retail store application is minimal. Paypal has grown in online transactions at 40% rate. Apple has nothing to add here but may have a niche in retail. What is easier? --swiping my RFID card or entering my password info on my phone and pressing several buttons to transact. Apple offering more me-to. Not impressive. Will be low adoption.
Out of the 16 million shares traded, you know a couple of small hedge funds have built positions in the 1 million share area. When the selling stops, and it will, the stock will gap up to where it belongs.
Do you know that an NFC is just a loop of copper hooked up to a circuit. Apple will not outsource this part especially to Pulse. Anybody can make NFC's--old tech. The circuit is the key and Apple will do that.
If its real you will be in jail
Patents do not really matter. It is first mover advantage that counts. The MITK product works well according to feedback. Price cutting to get market share is out of the question as prices are already too low. TISA will have a very tough time.
Prescott bought 280,000 in June and they usually have a$5MM position. Some smaller hedge funds will own it.
MITK is a retail investors stock, not institutional. As such. every time there is a slight drop it leads to selling. Selling begets selling. It will just have to run its course. In the meantime we can take solace in the fact that the fundamentals are good and they have a good BS. It is a great time to build a position. I have not seen any real negatives on this board. The Fiserv business is not that big an issue. Who can lay out the bear case?
Sentiment: Strong Buy
Why vertically integrate when you have massive pricing power over a commodity product? Making their own batteries just makes them capital intensive. Like Ford going into the oil business and promising free refills if you buy a car. I also see no way they can make them cheaper than the Chinese who pay their workers $.75/hour and have the same automation available. Good luck Elon.
With longevity investments by biotech, the average lifespan just keeps on rising. Life companies get to keep the premium payments longer and profits keep rising. Also with MetLife now required to hold more reserves, the pricing umbrella for NWLI just got bumped up. Selling at 1/2 of BV in 1.3x BV sellout environment, we cannot help but get an excise return in NWLI.
IPO price 160MM lower than expected.

The fact that you vote means you own this walking bankrupt.
Cannot believe this is still alive. This goes back to 1987 when Charlie Maxwell was touting it. It was a company that would allow you to fax from an LCD screen instead of paper. Possibly the most stupid promotion alive at the time. They ran demos from the Long Island HQ. They kept it alive by the insiders selling stock to the public and then buying stock from the company. That way no public offering needed.
It has a $70MM market value. They still got the touch. Just checked financials--technically bankrupt as $7mm working capital deficit. Nowadays staying alive by paying people in stock and borrowing from insiders as they sell their stock. Same game!! You would think these folks would have something better to do then run a bogus company.. They have filed to sell over 40 million shares. I cannot imagine even the most successful boiler room could pull that off.
A fool and his money are soon parted. VAPOR!!
The new owners of 6-7 million shares will open this up 20%. The volume is drying up as we go into the close. 43% of float traded today--some sort of Nasdaq record.

A Palmerston North education expert has been shoulder-tapped to give advice on a controversial Government scheme worth millions of dollars.
Six specialists have been asked by Education Minister Hekia Parata to join an advisory group working on the $359 million Investing in Educational Success project.
Palmerston North-based Massey University Institute of Education senior lecturer Dr Jenny Poskitt was one, with the others from Auckland and Canterbury universities, the New Zealand Council for Educational Research and from the University of Toronto's Ontario Institute for Studies in Education.
Parata said: "They all have strong records of how to improve education to get the very best for our kids and from schools and teachers,"
The initiative is mainly about collaboration between principals, teachers and schools in order to raise student achievement.
Since the concept was rolled out last month, a working group made up of boards of trustees, unions, principals, and Maori and Pasifika representatives has been discussing the policy proposal and suggesting changes.
Now the academic advisory group will add its voice to the mix, with the panel meeting tomorrow to start work.
The academics would have a governance function, ensuring money would be spent efficiently and determining what models might look like, Poskitt said.
"The devil is often in the detail, as the saying goes, and that's the purpose of the advisory group, to sort through the details."
The new approach is intended to improve outcomes for students and retain teaching talent by encouraging co-operation between schools, creating better leadership pathways and supporting teacher-led innovation.
"We're working more on the overall principles and guiding factors to ensure that it's successful and effective for teachers, schools and therefore learners," she said.
Manawatu principals have expressed concern that the overriding concept may ignore the individual needs of schools, be impractical, and money may be spent in the wrong places.
"I find that really sad that there is such controversy and resistance, because it's an opportunity for schools, and their communities, to decide what they want to improve," Poskitt said.
"It gives them flexibility to decide how they're going to do it, who they're going to involve, what target they want to reach and they're being given financial support to do so.
"Change is scary, time-demanding and energy-sapping, especially when it's hard enough as it is to keep schools ticking," she said.
"But my sense is there's goodwill to work with schools to do this well and in a way that's going to work."

Welcome to my Lego showroom!
My name is Dave and I'm a 29 year old who recently jumped back into
. A couple years ago I found out my wife hadn't played with Lego growing up, so I dusted off the old collection and we've been building together since (mostly the official Star Wars sets). Most of my time with Lego, however, is spent messing around in LDD. I must have been the last person to discover this amazing program but I've been hooked ever since.
I've got a few things in the works, but my focus for now is on cars:
1969 Corvette - DONE
1971 Challenger RT (50% done)
In the future I plan to do a 1963 Corvette split-window and a 1970 Camaro as well. Thank you to everyone who has visited my page so far! I appreciate all the generous comments!

But one critical and often controversial question remains unanswered: what is the right price to instigate changes in behavior that actually reduce carbon emissions? [
