Increased complexity in risk management is the biggest concern for institutional investors across the globe, a new survey shows.
Commissioned by BNP Paribas Securities Services and conducted by polling firm YouGov, the survey found the idea that risk management will become more complex is the biggest concern for 23% of respondents.
The survey spoke to 177 asset owners representing $6 trillion in total assets. A further 14% said the biggest concern was hiring and retaining talent; and 11% each said the ability to efficiently manage costs and the ability to efficiently use capital were the biggest concerns.
Respondents were made up of 34% from insurance companies; 33% from pension funds; 14% from official institutions including central banks, supranational agencies and sovereign wealth funds; and the rest from corporations. Geographically, 41% of respondents were from Europe, the Middle East and Africa; 32% from the Asia-Pacific region; 16% from North America; and the rest from South America.

FirstEnergy rate plan questioned
A public hearing – one of three planned in the state – will be held June 7 in Toledo, offering consumers the chance to offer their input.
Northwood City Administrator Dennis Recker unexpectedly stepped down from his position on Monday after just 19 months on the job.
Mayor Mark Stoner confirmed Monday evening that Recker left for good earlier in the day, but had characterized his departure as a retirement rather than a resignation.
The Oregon school board, after voting for raises last year for Superintendent Dr. Mike Zalar and a dozen administrators at a time when busing for Clay High School students was eliminated, had reasoned that the pay hikes were needed to keep high quality individuals in the district.
The board last August had unanimously approved the raises for 12 administrators, with Zalar getting the biggest amount from $116,964 to $130,221 per year.
With Memorial Day approaching, it's important for Americans to appreciate the immeasurable freedoms we enjoy living in the United States.
Waite High School is doing its part May 24, hosting the 97th Annual Memorial Day Program, "Courage Knows No Color." The event will feature Dr. Harold Brown, a former member of the Tuskegee Airmen, a squadron in the United States Army that served the country during World War II.
If the township gives the nod, the Lake Township Cemetery could be the setting for pivotal scenes of an independent feature film set for production next month.
Barbara Troy, the film's director and producer who lives in Pleasant Ridge, Michigan, has asked township officials for permission to film at the cemetery on Walbridge Road.

Don's do's for summer
It's almost summer, and the garden just isn't going anywhere. There's always work that needs to be done.
- Print page
- Email this
- Permalink
So if you're pulling on the gardening gloves, where is the best place to start at this time of year?
"The big one at the moment which no one seems to be focusing on is the horrific damage that was done to trees during the drought," said Don Burke, gardening expert and TV personality.
"Their way of living is much slower than ours and the onset of disease or a problem can take ten years or more. If you put a driveway over a tree it's usually 15 years before they start to get sick."
Don said that the trees are going through a 'drought hangover', as they used all of their reserves to survive the drought, and that now is the time nurture the garden.
"All of your garden, from little grasses through to big trees, need nurturing.
"There are wonderful seaweed products you can buy, and what they do after a drought is promote recovery of diseased roots.
"Virtually no plants would have come through the ten year drought without a fair bit of damage to their roots, so I would get something like those seaweed products onto your plants."
As for the veggie patch, Don said that the thing to do now is to protect them from pests and diseases. His suggestion to do that is an interesting one, and it involves cooking oil.
"Would it be a perfect world if you could control pests with sprays that were as edible as the crops you're spraying them on?
"There now exists a bunch of products that are basically canola oil, there is a little bit of eucalyptus oil added to it, to control aphids and mites and all those sorts of things.
"There is one product that will basically stop black spot on your roses, and stops a lot of fungus disease on your veggies, that is pretty much baking powder."
Things to watch for in the Wide Bay are fungal diseases on your veggies, particularly in places prone to high humidity. Don also said that it's not too late to plant tomatoes, but not to bother with herbs like coriander if you're after the leaves, as they will go straight to seed.
So in the immediate future, what jobs should you be doing in the garden?
"Where ever you are in the Wide Bay, if the spring flowering is finished on a lot of plants, a light haircut is always good. It tidies them up, forces them to branch out a bit more and gives you better flowering.
"If the relatives are coming around for Christmas, I would suggest waiting another 2 weeks, and then go to your local nursery and look for potted bloomers.
"You can plant these little flowering things in the last week or two prior to Christmas just to spruce the garden up. It will look stunning when all the relatives arrive for Christmas, and it just makes everybody feel a bit happier."
Don't forget the lawn as well, with the key point being don't cut it too low.
"The ideal height, and I hate to admit it, but the girls are right. Men want to mow it close and they think that's better; no that's wrong. A lawn should be about 3cm high.
"Be careful with your lawn foods as you don't want to pollute the area too much. Use slow release lawn food if you are doing it.
"Over 85 per cent of fertilisers we put on lawns washes away and damages the environment. The slow release lawn food is far more effective.
"The thing about a lawn is that it makes you feel good about the world. You relax, something inside you starts whistling tunes, and the world feels right when the lawn is green."

Reesing leads KU over Sam Houston State
LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP)—Todd Reesing stepped up in the pocket, then backpedaled, sidestepping a defender. He ran around another defender, rolled to his right and set his feet, heaving a pass that hit Dezmon Briscoe perfectly in stride for a touchdown.
The running game still struggling, Kansas got by on Reesing's arm—and feet.
Reesing threw for 356 yards and scrambled to hit Briscoe on a 57-yard pass for one of his two touchdowns, leading No. 19 Kansas to a 38-14 victory over Sam Houston State on Saturday night.
"I don't even know what to say about that," said Reesing, who ran for another score. "I guess I just pulled a rabbit out of a hat there."
It's a good thing he did.
Kansas (3-1) figured to breeze through its final nonconference game, particularly after the chaos Hurricane Ike caused Sam Houston State (1-1).
The Bearkats hadn't played in three weeks—last week's game against Prairie View A&M was postponed—and couldn't practice until Tuesday because of the cleanup and power outages. They spent the week sleeping in the school's field house, getting their first crack at a real bed Friday night at a hotel in Overland Park.
With every reason to roll over, Sam Houston State instead made it tough on Kansas, stifling its running game, repeatedly finding seams in its defensive secondary, keeping the score close even into the third quarter.
"I was very pleased with their effort," Sam Houston State coach Todd Whitten said. "We had a little bit of confusion at times with our substitutions. It was like playing an opening game. All in all, we were very proud of our players."
Kansas survived for its 12th straight home win—17th straight in nonconference—though has to be concerned about its struggling ground game.
The Jayhawks ran on eight of their first 10 plays and 48 times overall, hoping to improve on a 105-yard per-game average that ranks 101st in the nation.
Clearly, there's still some work to be done before the Big 12 season starts in two weeks.
The Jayhawks had 161 yards—a 3.4-yard average—and got pushed back trying to get an inch in the second quarter, turning it over on downs when Reesing lost a yard on fourth down at the Kansas 37. That set up an 8-yard touchdown run by Rhett Bomar, cutting the Jayhawks' lead to 14-7.
"Our running backs did an adequate job tonight, but in the offensive line we've got to get better at creating some creases and finishing blocks in the run game," Kansas coach Mark Mangino said. "That's an urgent need for us."
Good thing Reesing was around.
The junior was at his scrambling best on the touchdown to Briscoe after earlier hitting Kerry Meier in stride for a 68-yard touchdown in the second quarter. Reesing opened the second half by marching Kansas quickly down the field, setting up a 2-yard touchdown run by Jocques Crawford that put the Jayhawks up 28-7.
Reesing also came away unscathed after defensive lineman John Goree ripped off his helmet on a tackle in the fourth quarter, finishing 23-for-38.
Mangino's only criticism of his quarterback? He left the pocket a little too much, taking off a few times when he didn't have to. Scramble when you need to, not just because you can, the coach told him after the game.
"Obviously, we don't want to be scrambling around too much, we want to be able to sit in the pocket and execute our offense and throw the ball," Reesing said. "The main thing is knowing when there's a chance to make a big play scrambling and when I need to tuck the ball and run, not have a bad thing happen."
That's what happened to Bomar.
The former Oklahoma quarterback had his moments, finishing 26-for-46 for 340 yards, including a 46-yard touchdown to Justin Wells in the third quarter to get the Bearkats to 28-14.
Bomar doesn't have the same supporting cast as Reesing, though, and tried to do too much at times. He threw three interceptions and nearly had three others by forcing balls into coverage.
The first interception came on an underthrow from the end zone in the second quarter. Kansas safety Darrell Stuckey returned it to the 1, setting up Reesing's dive for a touchdown on the next play.
Bomar had another interception on the next drive when the ball bounced off Catron Houston's hands to Kansas cornerback Isiah Barfield. Meier scored three plays later on a deep post route to put Kansas up 14-0.
"We came out firing the first half," Bomar said. "We just shot ourselves in the foot with penalties and my interception (by Stuckey). That was a forced throw. I was trying to make something happen. As a whole, we played really well against a good team."

Toronto rock singer Alannah Myles spent several years struggling unsuccessfully to secure a Canadian record deal, so she and songwriting partner Christopher Ward set their sights south of the border. Myles recorded a demo and video for the song "Just One Kiss," which got the attention of several companies and ended up on her self-titled 1989 debut album. "Love Is" established her in her home country and made Alannah Myles the biggest-selling debut in Canadian history, but it was the smoky, sensual "Black Velvet" that became a worldwide hit, reaching number one in the U.S. An American release of "Love Is" fizzled as a follow-up, and Myles thus far remains something of a one-hit wonder to U.S. audiences. She released a follow-up album, Rockinghorse, in 1992.

Video: Leo Terrell explodes about racism on H&C; ashamed of Larry Elder
posted at 12:37 pm on April 11, 2007 by Ian
Civil rights attorney and talk show host Leo Terrell exploded last night on Hannity & Colmes after radio talk show host Larry Elder accused Terrell of calling him an "Uncle Tom" on his own show. Terrell denied the charge and instead called Elder an "apologist." Continuing, Terrell told Elder "racism is alive and well in this country" and "I have a problem with you downplaying racism." Then came the nugget. Terrell told Elder: "as an African-American, I am ashamed of you sometimes." That's not racist, or anything. Right?

Tips For Traveling With Your Pet
Think about your pet's unique character
Often times though, not all pet lovers would be recommended to take their pet along on vacation to Creswell pet friendly hotel. Ahead of fitting your current pet in to your vacation plans, give some thought to his or her age, temperament, as well as physical health. In the event that your pet is youthful, energetic, and with excellent nature, you're likely to be in a position to take your pet with you and wholly delight in your vacation in Oregon. If your family pet is more aged, however, or perhaps not in their healthiest years, it may be far better to leave them at home within the care of friends or family member.
Bring along a animal transporter
When travelling to Creswell - OR, your reliable method for your companion to travel is going to be in a carrier. Under no circumstances permit them to ride on someone's lap or loose in any seat within the motor vehicle, front or back. Select a pet carrier this is certainly large enough for your specific companion, but not too big that it really is unprotective. The most suitable measured pet transporter is barely large enough so that he / she may physically fit inside it by itself and in addition stand, turn around, sit and lie down in a relaxed manner as they're enroute to your pet friendly Creswell hotel destination. Domestic pet carriers really are a requirement when you are traveling by air, but if you are driving and don't have adequate room, protect the family pet with a special seat belt for pets in the middle of your back seat.
Ready your four-legged friend for the lengthy drive.
If you will be going to Creswell Oregon by car or truck, make certain the family pet is at ease with the getaway. Ready them for the much longer drive by taking them over a few shorter trips starting up 2-3 weeks ahead of the get-away. Progressively stretch out the span of time in the car to ensure that your companion can become more well-off and much less susceptible to car sickness.
Nourish your animal at proper periods
Your pet's digestive system might be a lot more temperamental to motion sickness as compared to your own. That being said, stay away from nourishing him or her just before you leave for your pet friendly Creswell place. Give your pet a light healthy meal 2-3 hours ahead of driving or 4-6 hrs prior to when traveling by air. Do not ever feed your animal inside of a moving automobile.

affectionate videos for a toddler
I'd like to show my toddler videos/tv shows/movies/books that include genuine affection - parents, families, friends all giving hugs or smiles or other close, positive interactions. Any good ideas? [more inside]
Smart books, 10 minutes at a time?
Baby #3 is coming soon and I'm looking for books to read during maternity leave. I know from experience that I need quick, light material that can be read in very short bursts - nothing that relies on subtle atmospherics or requires sustained attention to 'get in to'. But I'd also like something well-written and smart enough that I don't feel like I'm letting my brain turn into nothing but mush and breast milk. Only other stipulations - not too bro-centric (eg. not revolving entirely around the sexual frustrations of an egocentric middle-aged dude); nothing prominently featuring ill/dying/suffering children and/or parents (hormones, yo). Fiction or non-fiction OK, all genres welcome!
What is currently the best ebook app for Android?
Are there any ebook reading apps for Android that approach the level of polish that iBooks on iOS has? Ideally ones that have a continuous-scroll mode and which allow easy font customization? [more inside]
Bernard Law Montgomery biography?
At dinner with my 85 year old uncle yesterday and he asked me if I could recommend any good biographies covering Field Marshall Montgomery. I could not but I thought perhaps some folks here might be able to suggest a solid biography or two. Uncle Bill is aware that Monty was a controversial figure and is seeking a balanced account of his life (or perhaps just his WWII exploits.) I'd like to buy one or two for him so availability in the US would be helpful. Thanks!
What books from 2014 blew your socks off?
What literature from 2014 would you consider to be the best? I'm looking for page turners that tempt you to stay up late at night and exceed your expectations to a great degree. Fiction, non-fiction, short stories, space opera, graphic novel, anything goes. I'd like the best of the year to enjoy over break, and I'd like the recommendations to come from other like-minded mefites.
One Book For College Guy
Asking for a friend. What one book would you recommend for a college aged son who has specifically requested a book "to learn about something"? He's a really great kid who has really matured a lot in the past year - business major, likes sports. Open to all suggestions!
Is it still "worldbuilding" on a space station?
I'm looking for science fiction with excellent worldbuilding surrounding a particular scenario: a population trapped in an enclosed environment that they can't leave for generations, so that they have to produce or reuse everything within that environment. Preferably something like a space station or a generation ship, but those details aren't required. [more inside]
Did I Just Make a Rookie Mistake?
I just signed my first publishing deal after the publisher approached me directly. I had been noncommittally talking to an agent before this--no representation agreement or anything, just hypotheticals and suggestions. When the publisher contacted me, I just jumped for it and didn't tell the agent until it was done. Did I just screw over that agent, or is this just business? [more inside]
Books appropriate for a middle school boy
I've been tasked with finding my 13-year-old relative a good science fiction book. [more inside]
Christmas Present: Books for Mom edition
Every year I load up my Mom's Kindle library for Christmas. This year I'm finding a lot of stuff on the non-fiction end but very little fiction that is up her alley. Her fave books: Neal Stephenson's "The Baroque Cycle" and Gillian Bradshaw's "The Sand-Reckoner." Got a rec? Expanded explanation of her taste inside! [more inside]
Ideas for chapter book series?
I am a bookmobile librarian and the majority of my patrons are kids wanting chapter books. I have a variety of series that I try to keep current: The Littles, Junie B, Magic Tree, Goosebumps, Hank the Cowdog, Flat Stanley, Warriors, Star Wars, American Girl, Rainbow Fairies. Are there any other series you would suggest? Thanks a bunch hivemind!
Need recommendations for a Bird Identification book.
I am hoping to find the US equivalent to the Australian "What Bird is That?" book and my google fu is failing me. [more inside]
Reading recommendations for someone who wants healthier relationships?
I'm a big fan of learning things by reading; reading about cognitive-behavioural therapy has been helpful in combating depression, and reading about creative conflict resolution has been helpful in relationships with family and workmates. I'd like some reading recommendations for building healthy romantic relationships, since it's something I'm ignorant about. [more inside]
I want ALL the Idylls!
I want to give my husband a copy of Idylls Of The King by Tennyson for Christmas. Am I on an impossible quest? [more inside]
Sound + image
I'd like to read stories in English with my daughter. [more inside]
Web enabled horror fiction?
Thanks to MeFi, I recently read Benjamin Rosenbaum's short story "Feature Development for Social Networking" - please recommend me some other high quality horror / supernatural fiction in which the Web plays a central role.
Thought exercise: Dystopian Future Library
The scenario: access to the internet has been cut off due to (insert your worst fears here). Your only reading/reference material that you now have access to is what is on your shelves at home. Question: what are the best books to have stocked your shelves with beforehand?
What makes for a superior signed book?
I have a book signing coming up for my new novella. This is not my first signing. I feel I should write something more than "good reading" or "enjoy" and my signature. Other than those authors who know you and made a personal note, have you seen good book signing quotes? I won't be signing many so length (within reason) is not an issue. [more inside]
Accessible Scholarly Sources on the Book of Revelation
I recently happened to sit down and read the Book of Revelation in the Bible. Wow, that is some crazy shit! I'm now fascinated to learn more... [more inside]
The Book Doctor? The curative power of books
I was at Busboys and Poets a few months ago and I found an amazing book that "prescribed" other books for various physical and mental ailments - e.g Jane Austen for the brokenhearted, Heart of Darkness for malaria. I think the author had a blog/service all about book recommendations and was called the "book doctor." Help me find this book!
Introduction to Art - Difficulty Level: 9 yo Bilingual Boy
My oldest nephew is turning 9 in a few months' time and I want to give him a book. He's smart, introverted, sensitive, and he loves drawing. I thought he would enjoy a book about how to look at art. More info and added difficulties inside! [more inside]
Books That Reuse Text From Other Books
What books reuse all or part of the text of another book? I'm looking for works like Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, or A Humument, or F***ing Frankenstein, where large chunks of text are transformed but are still recognizable from the original. I am not looking for books like Wicked or The Wind Done Gone, where the story or characters are used but text is entirely original. [more inside]
Introducing Terry Pratchett to a Japanese reader
I'm exchanging emails with a Japanese woman from Tokyo. We talked about books, and I mentioned Terry Pratchett as one of my favorite authors. She said: "His work looks interesting! Do you have a recommendation?" [more inside]
Title of an old kid's book about two boys in a haunted house?
When I was a kid I read a scary book that kind of stuck with me for some reason. I'm curious to read it again, but I can't recall the title. It was about two boys who worked as gravediggers, or at least one of them did and the other hung around with him in the cemetery. They liked to make up macabre rhymes about the names on the tombstones. Stuff like, "Here lies the body of Eliza McBain, somebody pushed her in front of a train." [more inside]
What do snowmen and museums have in common?
Please recommend books & movies where things come to life at night, in secret, and/or for one person or a select group. [more inside]
Book Recommendation for my Mom
My mom dropped out of high school when she was 15 and never reads for pleasure. She (inexplicably) started reading the Hunger Games and devoured the trilogy in two weeks. As far as I know, that's the only book she's ever completed. I'm looking for something that she'll enjoy on the same level of the Hunger Games trilogy. I've tried to figure out what it is that she likes about the trilogy but she can't really say why she enjoyed them so much. She just says she just couldn't stop reading them.
Where does a reader go after Edith Pargeter's Heaven Tree Trilogy?
I'm looking to buy a book/books as a gift for my grandmother, who was recently in an accident and faces a long recovery. She is a voracious reader, but has specific tastes. Last Christmas I sent her Edith Pargeter's Heaven Tree Trilogy; she's told me multiple times since, in no uncertain terms, that these books were among the best she'd ever read and that she immediately re-read the trilogy upon finishing it. The trouble is, the rest of Pargeter's corpus - including her pseudonymous works, as far as I can tell - don't fit my grandmother's preferences nearly as well as the Heaven Tree books, so I am not sure what to send her. [more inside]
The Hugo Awards: what are the odds?
I thought bookmakers would take bets on just about anything, bookish competitions included—Ladbrokes has Haruki Murakami at 6:1 for this year's Nobel Prize for Literature—but I'm not finding anyone offering odds on this weekend's Hugo Awards. Are there any "official" odds on the Hugos? And if not, why not? [more inside]
Aging in literature and film
As I approach my fifties and confront the reality that parts of my body are wearing out and will never be young and resilient again, I turn to the arts for deeper philosophical understanding of this aspect of the human condition that I am facing. I'd like recommendations of fictional treatments of physical aging which are realistic but compassionate. Guidelines and caveats behind the fold. [more inside]
Road scholar
Let's say you have a kid - 10-15 years old, so maybe grades 5-10 - and you decide to pull them out of school for a year. During that time, you are going to drive around the United States with the goal of learning, in an authentic way, as much as possible about American history, culture, and geography. Where do you go, and what do you read? [more inside]
How do I audiobooks?
I want to start listening to audiobooks on long hikes and drives. Specifically I'd like to start with an unabridged "Lord of the Rings," but eventually others. How do I obtain them as plain mp3s? [more inside]
Best cosy mystery series or just plain cosy series?
I am looking for a book series to get into that's easy and light, now that I have a kiddo. [more inside]
Books about things hidden in plain sight

What is wrong with the world?
With the recent events in Ukraine and Gaza lately, I've been feeling upset as to what our world has become, and where we as a race are headed. I'd like to understand how we got here. Can you share your favorite books, and explainers that illuminate the history of the Middle East conflicts, as well as that of Russia and Ukraine. [more inside]

Book recommendation: a good historical overview of the US in the 1980s?
I am seeking recommendations for (reputable/peer-reviewed) essays or books that could help me develop a nuanced but well-rounded understanding of the social, political, and economic climate in 1980s America (economic deregulation is a particular point of interest). [more inside]
Thoughtful sci-fi recommendations
Looking for recommendations of sci-fi authors who are adept at some technology topics without compromising storytelling. More inside! [more inside]
Kid's book: little girl on vacation in Vermont who rides flying monsters
When I was a kid, I read a book about a little girl who was on vacation in the mountains of Vermont with her family. She became friends with flying monsters/dragons/dinosaurs. That's all that I remember!
Detective/Mystery Novels in Current Day New York?
A little while back I stumbled upon a detective novel (Losers Live Longer) that takes place in 2009 NYC and utilizes actual city streets, restaurants, bars, etc. The writing was pretty average, but the book kept me constantly aware of the protagonist's location (oftentimes cross-streets). The real-world geography of areas I knew well really sucked me into the world and engaged me on another level than the narrative alone. Are there any other good detective or mystery novels that use post-2000s (or, better yet, post-2010) New York accurately? [more inside]
What's the name of this kids' scifi anthology I remember?
I read this book of short stories years ago, and for some reason I remember most of the stories in it but have had no luck with Googling for it. Must be that the stories' premises were creative enough or caught my imagination in a particular way. The most memorable story was about trying to survive on Earth after a supernova. I'm pretty sure these are all from the same book: [more inside]

What should a children's book author's website contain?
I'm building a website for my wife, who's written a half dozen children's books and is currently working to get them published. I've searched the web and looked at sites like Judy Bloom, Beverly Cleary, and currently reviewing this list of websites on pinterest. I'm hoping to get a list of things the hive mind thinks a children's author website should contain, outside of the obvious list like a page for the books, blog/news, and about the author.
It's on the tip of someone's tongue
Please help my husband and me find words or phrases (any language!) that describe the sensation of knowing how far you are from home. Not really alienation or nostalgia or being homesick-- just the understanding/realization of the distance. [more inside]
The mail must go through!
Do you know of any children's books featuring mail? As in, a penpal or mailing letters. Specifically for an eight year old girl but I'm open to all suggestions! [more inside]
Historical novels, subtype 'just-so' stories?
I'm craving a particular subtype of historical novel: the kind that posits a dimly-remembered reality behind a famous myth/legend/story, sort of filling it out and extrapolating the details into realism. My favorite of this kind is Mary Renault's "The King Must Die" about Theseus (also the sequel). I also enjoyed "Eaters of the Dead", about the events of 'Beowulf'. But what are some other good ones you can recommend? More examples and specifics inside! [more inside]
Best Airport Novels?
I read a lot of Classic and contemporary literary fiction and am interested in reading some books purely for distraction and fun. [more inside]

I am currently an 8th grade math teacher in Broomfield. My path towards becoming a teacher began in high school when I tutored younger students in math. I continued to tutor in college while I earned my B.S. degree in Biomedical Engineering but it wasn't until I taught an undergraduate biology course while working on my PhD that I realized my true calling was teaching.

LG 37LH7000 television
Dressed in black with a red tint to its undercarriage, this is LG's successful follow-up to the popular Scarlet series of LCD TVs from last year.
Gone is the red-clad back that made those screens so distinctive, but in its place is a host of new features packed into a 52mm-thin screen that make this 37-incher a great value all-rounder.
There is an upgrade set to the LG 37LH7000 that you shouldn't ignore. For broadly the same price, LG's otherwise identical 37LF7700 adds a Freesat HD tuner that can – with an installation of a satellite dish on your house – receive the high-definition BBC HD and ITV HD channels as well as a multitude of other digital TV and radio channels.
But even if you're happy with Freeview pictures, there is an unusual feature that could help you watch in high definition even if you don't have a Blu-ray player, a Xbox 360 or a PS3.
It centres on the 37LH7000's exhaustive connectivity, the star of which is its USB port. Insert a memory stick – or even attach a hard drive – containing digital files from a PC or Mac and the 37LH7000 turns into a media savvy screen.
A quite superb onscreen interface presents boxed icons for all of its main features, which make it easy to inspect whatever is coming through that USB slot. MP3 music and JPEG photos are no problem, while the 37LH7000 can – almost uniquely – play VOB, MOV (Quicktime), MKV and DivX HD video files – alongside more usual filetypes such as AVI and MPG. Thumbnails of the video files are nicely displayed and playback, complete with basic fast-forwarding and rewinding, is faultless (though quality will obviously depend on the quality and resolution of the video files you use).
For those who intend to feed the 37LH7000 a more steady diet of high definition, there are plenty of opportunities. Four HDMI inputs are supplied on the rear, as well as a set of component video inputs, which takes the HD-capable port count to an impressive six, though the design is not without its faults. Those HDMI inputs are clustered around the USB port on the set's rear and not recessed nearly enough, which could make wall-mounting a challenge. It's perfectly possible to do, but once all the ins and outs and in place, the 37LH7000 is considerably deeper than its 52mm screen depth might suggest.
At least a USB extension cable is supplied to make swapping between USB sticks a less laborious process, though it's something of a compromise.
Like a lot of LG's screens for 2009, the 37LH7000 can also receive MP3 and JPEG files sent from a mobile phone via Bluetooth. Easy to operate and increasingly useful given the quality of new phones' built-in cameras, this clever connectivity also gives you the chance to use wireless Bluetooth headphones while watching TV. Nevertheless, Bluetooth is hardly a dealmaker on this Full HD 1080p screen.
On the contrary, picture quality from Blu-ray is every bit a reason to buy the 37LH7000, with its almost eerily detailed pictures replete with accurate colours and acceptable contrast.
It's also a smooth image. That's down to the set's TruMotion100Hz feature that doubles the scan rate of video, though it can't remove every flicker and blur from lingering camera pans.
With Freeview image quality reasonable despite some jagged edges, the only real disappointment on the 37LH7000 is its speakers, which fail to supply any kind of quality even with SRS TruSurround XT activated.
With a few exceptions this is a well thought-out and superb value LCD TV that's versatile enough for any living room. Its Bluetooth and USB stick tomfoolery will attract many, but it's Blu-ray display where this 37-incher truly impresses.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Aug. 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- We are pleased to announce a new concept that combines the feel of luxury with the practicality of support. Shapers for your shoes! Gone are the days of tossing your Jimmy's into your luggage. After years of watching men use heavy cedar shoetrees to protect their shoes, finally women have a beautiful new option that provides lightweight, flexible yet firm support to their shoes and looks fabulous doing it! Shoelala is a designer shoe shaper that is flexible and will easily slide into a woman's shoe from flats to high heels and is available in four patterns and three sizes: small, medium and large. Unlike shoetrees, Shoelala shoe shapers are designed to provide all over support not only to the toe area of the shoe, but also to the vulnerable mid-section where embellishments and straps need support.
The product launched a few weeks ago in Times Square at the National Association of Professional Women Conference where it received rave reviews. The President & Founder, Carol Harris, described the excitement around their booth as one that you would expect when watching a group of women open Christmas presents. The expression was pure delight and enthusiasm that an option now exists to protect women's shoes while in their suitcase, tote and closet. Whether purchasing many of the same patterns to line up in your closet or selecting a specific pattern to coordinate with a particular shoe, Shoelala offers a pattern to fit your style.
"To think it all started with a pair of brand new shoes that were damaged in my suitcase when my flat iron pressed into my shoe during a five-hour flight," the founder stated to a large group of women that attended the event. "Men have cedar shoetrees and we have nothing! Until now..." A sentiment of agreement flowed from the crowd of women. "Women spend far too much not to have something to protect our investment and look great at the same time." Not only will women use Shoelala to pack their shoes, but there will surely be a lot of new closet makeovers in the works!
Founder, Carol Harris, states, "We are excited about the different applications available with this new concept. Besides the consumer application, we can customize a pattern and add a logo to promote a particular charity or advertise a select shoe brand thus providing ongoing advertising long after the shopping bags have been discarded."
Shoelala is currently available in select retailers and online at www.shoelala.com. Carol and the Shoelala team will be traveling the country promoting the brand through different venues.
Shoelala is a brand of Christopher Michael, LLC, a travel and shoe accessories company.

Gareth Dawson cut from sport for 12 months
Relevant offers
Southland Sharks basketballer Gareth Dawson tried to order online the prescription drugs that fouled him out of the 2014 season, but they were seized by Customs.
The 2.06-metre centre has been suspended from playing for 12 months after the Sports Tribunal found his taking of prohibited substance tamoxifen was not for performance-enhancing purposes.
Dawson originally faced a two-year suspension but said the tribunal was lenient after being satisfied he hadn't intentionally cheated. "I just made a stupid mistake by not checking prescriptions," he said.
A report from the Sports Tribunal, made public yesterday, says in 2011 Dawson sought medical advice for a "painful" condition in Timaru. His family doctor gave him a diagnosis but did not prescribe any treatment at the time. The condition went away for about 18 months but then returned.
Living in Invercargill and a member of the Southland Sharks, Dawson researched treatments available, subsequently ordering tamoxifen tablets from an online pharmacy.
The parcel was intercepted in the mail by New Zealand Customs, who referred it to the Ministry of Health.
The report says Dawson did not follow up its non-receipt and, when the tamoxifen did not arrive, he consulted Dr Peter Finlayson, of Invercargill, who had prescribed medicines to the Sharks but was not the team doctor.
Dawson requested a repeat prescription of tamoxifen and was prescribed the medicine by Finlayson, the report says.
While disappointed he couldn't play until May, Dawson said he was relieved the saga was over and he could move on.
"It has been tough; it's been going on for two and a half months. It's hard to have something of this nature going on. I try to put it out of my mind and carry on, but at the same time it's hard to get away from it," he said.
The tribunal said it was satisfied Dawson "did not intend to enhance his sports performance or to mask the use of a performance enhancing substance".
The tamoxifen was taken during a 10-day period in November and December.
Dawson completed the prescribed tamoxifen in March after the medical condition returned.
A sample collected from Dawson by Drug Free Sport New Zealand (DFS) on March 22 confirmed the presence of the prohibited substance tamoxifen.
The tribunal heard an application from DFS for provisional suspension and made the order for Dawson's suspension on May 15.
Dawson told the tribunal his lapse was unintentional and the tamoxifen was sought to relieve an "embarrassing and painful medical condition".
The decision said Dawson "made little effort in exercising the proper caution to be expected of a semi-professional and experienced athlete to avoid taking prohibited substances".
Dawson is suspended from all participation in sport until May 15, 2015.

New PxDx Bassist
Won't change anything drastically.
news about a bassist can i get a LOL
If it ends up being another set of ears to bounce ideas off of and contribute to the writing process then it could end up being a positive development for the band as they need a bit of a creativity injection after Book Burner.
A bass player in PxDx? Blasphemy!
Digging: Jason Richardson - I
It will make no difference in their sound. It's funny how Scott Hull thinks it will "add the ability to expand musically into new territories that they haven't explored yet" but come on dude. You fucking program drums on a computer and this will not change a bloody thing in your sound. Are you all of a sudden gonna turn all prog on us?

Imagine how terrifyer would sound with bass though. Much better
None of you have obviously heard a great bass player. A solid bass player means night and day difference.
I'm not sure how I feel about this. On the one hand it's always been like "well they're grind, but they don't have a bassist so that somehow makes them different" but on the other hand it won't impact shit. If they get worse, they would've always gotten worse. If they get better...yay bass?
Thought this was MxPx news for a second. I'm definitely intrigued by the idea of Pig Destroyer + bass
"news about a bassist can i get a LOL"
As a bassist, go fuck yourself
"Imagine how terrifyer would sound with bass though. Much better"
This is weird. I don't like this. I'm scared.

duuuuuude i wanna hear terrifyer with bass! and natasha
I've always enjoyed PD without a bass player and never thought in a million years that they'd do this. But I love the instrument, it can do alot for the music but this is kinda weird. Now I just feel like every Pig Destroyer album needs bass for this to happen

i honestly always loved the way terrifyer sounded on its own, but hey I guess if they ever played somewhere outside of the 6 shows a year they do, and came to somewhere where i lived, and I could go see them, it might be a good thing? they should fire blake tho. really. what's that guy doing that a studio guy couldn't and just play the tracks live?

If Jim Holt's deft and consuming Why Does the World Exist?: An Existential Detective Story has anything to tell us, it's that such a comment is less about literary riffing than deep philosophy. --David Ulin
A guided tour of ideas, theories and arguments about the origins of the universe.... Through discussions with philosophers of religion and science, humanists, biologists, string theorists, as well as research into the scholarship of days past--from Heidegger, Parmenides, Pythagoras and others--and an interview with John Updike, Holt provides a master's-level course on the theories and their detractors. The interludes find the author positioning himself as an existential gumshoe, but also working through the sudden loss of a pet and, later, the death of his mother. Holt may not answer the question of his title, but his book deepens the appreciation of the mystery.
The pleasure of this book is watching the match: the staggeringly inventive human mind slamming its fantastic conjectures over the net, the universe coolly returning every serve.... Holt traffics in wonder, a word whose dual meanings--the absence of answers; the experience of awe--strike me as profoundly related. His book is not utilitarian. You can't profit from it, at least not in the narrow sense.... And yet it does what real science writing should: It helps us feel the fullness of the problem. --Kathryn Schulz
Why is the universe characterized by such abundance and complexity? Why does it exist at all? How did it come into being? Could there have been something else instead? Could there have been nothing else--that is, nothingness--instead? Is the human mind capable of resolving these matters? Can anyone do justice to all this in a 279-page book? I can answer only the last of these questions. Yes, someone can: Jim Holt, in Why Does the World Exist --Andrew Sullivan
He [Jim Holt] leaves us with the question Stephen Hawking once asked but couldn't answer, 'Why does the universe go through all the bother of existing?' --Ron Rosenbaum
There could have been nothing. It might have been easier. Instead there is something. The universe exists, and we are here to ask about it. Why? In Why Does the World Exist?, Jim Holt, an elegant and witty writer comfortably at home in the problem's weird interzone between philosophy and scientific cosmology, sets out in search of such answers. ...There is no way to do justice to any of these theories in a brief review, but Holt traces the reasoning behind each one with care and clarity--such clarity that each idea seems resoundingly sensible even as it turns one's brain to a soup of incredulity.... I can imagine few more enjoyable ways of thinking than to read this book. --Sarah Bakewell
It's the mystery William James called "the darkest in all philosophy" "[W]hy is there something rather than nothing?" For Jim Holt, it is a question that may never find an answer, but one endlessly worth asking. In this highly engaging book, Holt visits great thinkers in mathematics, quantum physics, artificial intelligence, theology, philosophy, and literature. These conversations don't lead him toward any conclusion, but they make for a lively, thoughtful read, whether your worldview tends toward Spinoza (in which "reality is a self-sustaining causal loop: the world creates us, and we in turn create the world") or like Stephen Hawking, still searching for the final theory of everything.Holt is a generous guide, laying out a brief history of how philosophers have approached these questions before bringing us along on his tour of modern thinkers--some of whom are also fairly eccentric, hilarious talkers. The author's willingness to include his personal struggles with being and nothingness--as when he faces the death first of his dog, then of his mother--grounds the book in intimate, humane terms. We may never know why the universe exists, but we know how to grieve those who exit it. --Kate Tuttle
In Why Does the World Exist? Mr. Holt picks up this question about being versus nothingness and runs quite a long and stylish way with it. He combines his raffish erudition with accounts of traveling to tap the minds of cosmologists, theologians, particle physicists, philosophers, mystics and others. --Dwight Garner
So much in middle-class life and literature is rote: We decide what to have for dinner, we floss, we pick up something to read. Hurray for Jim Holt, who cracks our formulaic stupor with his crisp, jolly new book, Why Does the World Exist? An Existential Detective Story. Already, I've started a list of folk who will find it gift-wrapped from me at the holidays. --Karen R. Long
An elegant and witty writer converses with philosophers and cosmologists who ponder the question of why there is something rather than nothing.
Back and forth he goes between scientists and philosophers, testing the contentions of one against the theories of the other. --Jeremy Bernstein
... an eclectic mix of theology, cutting-edge science (of the cosmological and particle-physics variety) and extremely abstract philosophising, rendered (mostly) accessible by Mr. Holt's facility with analogies and clear, witty language.
A reminder that the quest for foundational truths is not only a supremely human activity but also one that brings us, if not absolute truth (which may be unknowable), at least better and better approximations of the truth... A gifted essayist and critic... Holt intersperses his intellectual investigation with brief but revealing glimpses of his own life, including the death of his mother, when existential musings on the nature of being seem anything but abstract. --Jay Tolson
[Holt] is a spirited interlocutor and a deft explainer, patiently making sense of subjects ranging from Platonism to quantum mechanics, while nonetheless marveling at their seemingly fantastical nature... This cheerful persistence--combined with anecdotes celebrating the thrills of travel, good food, and drink--helps to sweeten what is, finally, a somber vision, in which reality may take the form of 'infinite mediocrity' and 'the life of the universe, like each of our lives, may be a mere interlude between two nothings.'
Holt writes a warm, humane, funny, gripping and poignant tale about Being and Nothingness in the 21st century, a book that every educated person should read. His 'detective story' hides a winsome primer on the big questions of life, which no one--except the most ignorant or self-absorbed--can afford to avoid. --Arlice Davenport
Holt has a religious temperament, if not a religion, and he thinks the notion of God is a possible explanation of the mystery of being rather than the reverse or the refusal of one... [He] is an expert juggler of the paradoxes that go with so many kinds of negation...the fun of his quest has to do not only with what he wants to know but with his eagerness for live dialogue. --Michael Wood"
The author takes on the origin of everything in this wonderfully ambitious book encompassing mathematics, theology, physics, ethics and more. --Michael S. Roth"
