The London P&I Club's result for the 2012/2013 financial year was a surplus across all classes of $9.4 million, increasing the free reserve to $154 million.
Claims experience over the financial year was mixed, the company said. In the retained layer there was an encouraging picture at the attritional level, involving claims up to $100,000. There was also a continued moderation of claims in excess of $1 million, but there were additional indications of increasing claims cost and activity in the band between $100,000 and $1 million. Meanwhile, the club's management team noted that adverse claims experience within the International Group's Pool layers means that 2012/13 is looking likely to prove the most expensive year on record for claims on the pooling system.
In the year to February 20, 2013, the London Club recorded a return on invested assets and cash of approximately $23.7 million, or 6.9 percent, reflecting positive results across the whole of the asset base and, in particular, benchmark-beating performance by the investment-grade fixed income holdings, which form the lion's share of the portfolio.
Over the course of the policy year the club secured additional entries from many existing members as well as from new members in countries which included Germany, Greece, India, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates and Ukraine.
There was also a relatively high level of ships withdrawn during the year, some sold for further trading but many for scrapping. As a result, there was a small increase in the club's owned entry to approximately 41.5 gt. In addition, the charterers and # 8217; facility continued to make steady progress.

Home > Press > Target: Drug-resistant bacteria: Engineers design nanoparticles that deliver high doses of antibiotics directly to bacteria
|Nanoparticles, in green, targeting bacteria, shown in red. Image: Aleks Radovic-Moreno
Over the past several decades, scientists have faced challenges in developing new antibiotics even as bacteria have become increasingly resistant to existing drugs. One strategy that might combat such resistance would be to overwhelm bacterial defenses by using highly targeted nanoparticles to deliver large doses of existing antibiotics.
In a step toward that goal, researchers at MIT and Brigham and Women's Hospital have developed a nanoparticle designed to evade the immune system and home in on infection sites, then unleash a focused antibiotic attack.
This approach would mitigate the side effects of some antibiotics and protect the beneficial bacteria that normally live inside our bodies, says Aleks Radovic-Moreno, an MIT graduate student and lead author of a paper describing the particles in the journal ACS Nano.
Institute Professor Robert Langer of MIT and Omid Farokzhad, director of the Laboratory of Nanomedicine and Biomaterials at Brigham and Women's Hospital, are senior authors of the paper. Timothy Lu, an assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science, and MIT undergraduates Vlad Puscasu and Christopher Yoon also contributed to the research.
Rules of attraction
The team created the new nanoparticles from a polymer capped with polyethylene glycol (PEG), which is commonly used for drug delivery because it is nontoxic and can help nanoparticles travel through the bloodstream by evading detection by the immune system.
Their next step was to induce the particles to specifically target bacteria. Researchers have previously tried to target particles to bacteria by giving them a positive charge, which attracts them to bacteria's negatively charged cell walls. However, the immune system tends to clear positively charged nanoparticles from the body before they can encounter bacteria.
To overcome this, the researchers designed antibiotic-carrying nanoparticles that can switch their charge depending on their environment. While they circulate in the bloodstream, the particles have a slight negative charge. However, when they encounter an infection site, the particles gain a positive charge, allowing them to tightly bind to bacteria and release their drug payload.
This switch is provoked by the slightly acidic environment surrounding bacteria. Infection sites can be slightly more acidic than normal body tissue if disease-causing bacteria are reproducing rapidly, depleting oxygen. Lack of oxygen triggers a change in bacterial metabolism, leading them to produce organic acids. The body's immune cells also contribute: Cells called neutrophils produce acids as they try to consume the bacteria.
Just below the outer PEG layer, the nanoparticles contain a pH-sensitive layer made of long chains of the amino acid histidine. As pH drops from 7 to 6 — representing an increase in acidity — the polyhistidine molecule tends to gain protons, giving the molecule a positive charge.
Overwhelming force
Once the nanoparticles bind to bacteria, they begin releasing their drug payload, which is embedded in the core of the particle. In this study, the researchers designed the particles to deliver vancomycin, used to treat drug-resistant infections, but the particles could be modified to deliver other antibiotics or combinations of drugs.
Many antibiotics lose their effectiveness as acidity increases, but the researchers found that antibiotics carried by nanoparticles retained their potency better than traditional antibiotics in an acidic environment.
The current version of the nanoparticles releases its drug payload over one to two days. "You don't want just a short burst of drug, because bacteria can recover once the drug is gone. You want an extended release of drug so that bacteria are constantly being hit with high quantities of drug until they've been eradicated," Radovic-Moreno says.
Young Jik Kwon, associate professor of chemical engineering and materials science at the University of California at Irvine, says the new nanoparticles are well designed and could have great potential impact in treating infectious diseases, particularly in developing countries. "Most nanotechnology has been targeted to cancer drug delivery or imaging; not many people have shown interest in using a nanotechnology approach for infectious disease," says Kwon, who was not part of the research team.
Although further development is needed, the researchers hope the high doses delivered by their particles could eventually help overcome bacterial resistance. "When bacteria are drug resistant, it doesn't mean they stop responding, it means they respond but only at higher concentrations. And the reason you can't achieve these clinically is because antibiotics are sometimes toxic, or they don't stay at that site of infection long enough," Radovic-Moreno says.
One possible challenge: There are also negatively charged tissue cells and proteins at infection sites that can compete with bacteria in binding to nanoparticles and potentially block them from binding to bacteria. The researchers are studying how much this might limit the effectiveness of their nanoparticle delivery. They are also conducting studies in animals to determine whether the particles will remain pH-sensitive in the body and circulate for long enough to reach their targets.

The ASC warranty they sell is a complete scam!! I did get $1700 refunded of the $1899 cost only had it 3 weeks and after having them deny all the claims made by the auto shop I took it to. So stay away from that as well!! The only reason I gave 2 stars is because I did buy a used vehicle with 150000 miles so I did expect some repair expense."

The best fight for Ward from 68-75? My Guess? Gabe Campillo.

I wouldn't pick anyone over Ward, but in terms of the best chance of beating him...
Call me crazy, but how about Pascal. Just because he's so heavy handed and awkward. Maybe one big shot could really hurt Ward?
I thought Dirrell before i saw how Ward pressured Dawson. Dirrell wouldn't be able to deal with that.

I think Gabriel Campillo can possibly beat him at 175. Maybe.

I agree with Campillo being an interesting fight. But to be honest, I don't think there's a fighter from 160-175 with a chance in hell. As far as I'm concerned there is no one that can beat him in or around his weight class.
I would say the best way to beat him is to just drowned him but he knows how to handle that. He's like Floyd in that he'll cut your work rate down and have you fighting at his pace before you even realized what happened....he's a truly special fighter.

Donald's Tire Trouble: Donald drives too fast and blows out a tire. Of course, with this clown, changing it is not a simple operation. First he has to fight the jack, then the heavily patched inner tube, then the adhesive on the patch, then the pump, then the hassle of putting the tire back together. Finally, he's all done, and ... well, let's just say he's not going anywhere too quickly.

SYDNEY, March 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- The Australian manufacturing execution systems (MES) market has been riding a crest with escalating demand from the metals & mining industry due to the influx of foreign direct investment from China and India. Some of the other prominent end-user industries include oil and gas, chemicals and petrochemicals, and food and beverage.
New analysis from Frost & Sullivan (http://www.industrialautomation.frost.com), Analysis of the ANZ Manufacturing Execution Systems Market, finds that the market earned revenues of $22.8 million in 2013 and estimates this to reach $31.1 million in 2017.
"Manufacturing processes, especially in mining, oil and gas, and chemicals, are becoming highly sophisticated, generating large volumes of data every day," said Frost & Sullivan Industrial Automation & Process Control Senior Research Analyst Vandhana Venkatesan. "With the emergence of big data concepts and data analytic functions, companies have begun using MES platforms to gather and analyze this data, which is later used to make critical decisions in the manufacturing process."
Technological advancements such as web-based and mobile-based plant information, which raises the complexity of end-users' operations, are also likely to expand the market for MES.
While its utility is undisputed, MES' implementation is challenging. The system requires expensive integration with IT systems and plants, which deters several end users from investing in it. MES vendors could mitigate this challenge to some extent by initiating training for end users, thereby building customer loyalty and facilitating better maintenance of the systems.
The MES market is also receiving a boost from the rising energy costs in ANZ. In a bid to lower energy consumption, end users are increasingly monitoring their manufacturing processes by installing MES.
Market participants are making the most of the demand by integrating their systems with energy management solutions. Such integrated systems allow end users to conduct data analysis and simultaneously keep a close watch on energy consumption.
"MES manufacturers can further intensify demand by mapping sustainability of production process, such as the use of alternate energy source and optimum utilization, on their systems," noted Venkatesan.
If you are interested in more information on this study, please send an email to [email protected], with your full name, company name, job title, telephone number, company email address, company website, city, state and country.
Analysis of the ANZ Manufacturing Execution Systems Market is part of the Industrial Automation & Process Control Growth Partnership Service program. Frost & Sullivan's related studies include: Southeast Asia and ANZ Automation & Software Solutions Market for the Chemical & Petrochemical Industry, World Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) Market, Strategic Analysis of the Global MES and ECQM Market for the Regulated Industries, Strategic Analysis of the Indian Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) Market and Automation and Controls Market in Southeast Asia and Australia-New Zealand.

Olafur Eliasson's Waterfalls and Statues of Limitations
I am leaving Saks Fifth Avenue in a huff on a recent blazing Saturday—because even though everything is 70 percent off, the Sgt. Pepper–esque Junya Watanabe jacket I've been contemplating since February is still over $1,000—when I notice, at the entrance to Rockefeller Center across the street, some sort of model of a skyscraper that looks like a giant erector set. It's by Chris Burden—a nutty performance artist who once famously had an assistant shoot him the arm—and it's called What My Dad Gave Me, but the desultory crowd of picture takers around it is for the most part unmoved. "Waterfalls is better," I overhear someone mutter.
They are? Does that mean I should hustle downtown and see the most ballyhooed outdoor-art project of summer '08: four cascades that the Danish artist Olafur Eliasson somehow conned the City of New York into letting him erect on the East River? You can view all of them from the shore, but I decide it's better to take the boat to examine these gushers properly. I e-mail the publicist for boat tickets (she admonishes me sternly that I must refer to this conveyance in all future communications as Circle Line Downtown), even though most of the seats are free anyway.
In the meantime, I plan to go up to the roof of the Met and see the Jeff Koons sculptures, a group of huge, cartoonish works that the museum, in an accompanying pamphlet, describes as "offering a certain jouissance and jubilant spirit and demonstrating extraordinary technical virtuosity in the rendering of large perfected forms on a huge scale."
Desperate for a dose of jouissance, I hop on the subway at 14th Street, but not before practically walking into a replica of the Statue of Liberty outside Walgreen's, painted an ugly black, white, and gray and with the legend "Statues of Liberty on Parade All-Star Games" at its base. Careful examination—the word "Chicago" scrawled on Liberty's torso, a drawing of socks on her robe—reveals that this piece of public art is one of a series of baseball-themed Liberties similar to those fiberglass cows that overtook the city a few years back, which everyone hated except me. (Sue me—I thought they were cute.)

Could anything be hotter than the roof of the Met in the middle of July? Sure, there's a nice view over Central Park, but the soldiers on the Bataan Death March might have had a nice view, too. The Koons works—among them a giant candy-box heart and a chartreuse balloon dog—are made of stainless-steel, one unintended consequence of which is that you can see yourself reflected in the sculpture. And guess what? You don't look so great with your hair tied up in rag and sweat streaking your dress. Still, I love the heart and the dog—they're stupid and campy, the way I like my art—and I'm disappointed that the museum shop hasn't seized the opportunity to have little green balloon dogs made up as snow globes or earrings.
Since I'm working so hard, I treat myself to a Mr. Softee from a truck outside the Met and am enjoying the first few satisfying sprinkle-laden licks when I notice a flag on the Park Avenue median that says: "Eat Fewer Sugary Snacks. Mt. Sinai Hospital." Excuse me? Do I need a lecture from a lamppost? Why don't you mind your own fucking business?
This post-punk righteous indignation puts me in the perfect mood for Shallow, a series of "musical paintings" by Malcolm McLaren, legendary bad-boy impresario and father of the Sex Pistols. These so-called musical paintings (what they really are are utterly silent films—no more "musical paintings" than "breakfast dishes" or "lunar landings") are being shown in rotation on a screen in Times Square. But when I get to 44th and Broadway, though I see videos encouraging me to join the armed forces and a jaunty curved ticker that reads "Turkey suspects al Qaeda in attack," I can't locate any paintings, musical or otherwise. I'm about to give up when I finally turn around and see McLaren's work, directly behind me, looming on a giant screen. (Truly, I am a moron.)
The film in question turns out to be a black-and-white short featuring the subway roaring into the Roosevelt Avenue station. A woman on the train is reading a magazine; a guy gets on and kisses her violently. And that's it. It's very film noir–ish, very British cinema circa 1960, when McLaren was 14 years old—he's 62 now—and further proof that the aesthetic images that entrance you during your formative years continue to haunt you for decades to come.
Finally, a new day dawns, and it's time for my CIRCLE LINE DOWNTOWN boat ride. Whenever I visit South Street Seaport, which is mercifully not very often, I am astonished by its grim landscape: the lovingly restored 18th-century buildings saddled with branches of Brookstone, Body Shop, and Benetton; the deeply predictable eateries like Uno and Mrs. Fields's Pretzel Time. At Fulton Market, a humongous mall-like structure, a vast Gap shares space with Bodies: The Exhibition, the grisly traveling show from China that features the carcasses of alleged prisoners preserved through some hideous process and contorted into macabre tableaux vivants. Call me crazy, but I'd rather spend the afternoon at Rikers than watch a couple of dead bodies playing tennis.
At this point, I'm so exhausted that I just want to collapse in the air-conditioned belly of the boat, but no! I'm a reporter! So I go and stand at the prow—until the boat turns around and I realize this can't be the prow—and am almost overcome by the nauseating aroma of diesel fuel.
Then the voice of the artist, Olafur Eliasson himself, comes over the speaker system. He thanks us all for coming, and adds, "We should talk about how it is to experience this in a group . . . how do we see things as a collective?" Hey, buddy, I want to scream, the only reason I'm experiencing this in a group is because I don't have a private yacht, forcing me to share the experience with the usual fun slice of New Yorkers: pierced teenagers speaking an unidentifiable foreign language, babies spitting up their own waterfalls, and one very prosperous- looking family, the wife with a rock on her finger that will sink her for sure if we capsize.
The falls are OK, but water is water, and I'm not exactly dropping dead with excitement. They're actually better seen from the shore—say, outside the Express store or a few feet from the temporary tattoo stall on Pier 16. Plus, one of the four falls isn't even working, which would make me demand my money back if I had paid to begin with. Actually, the most electrifying part of the ride is that green person rising out of the sea: Lady Liberty herself, far more majestic and thrilling than any waterfall. And minus the white socks.
