Formula E – exciting and innovative
Formula E, which was launched in September 2014, is the first exclusively electrical racing series and has managed to establish itself as an appealing motor sport event for a wide audience in only a short space of time and to inspire the best drivers, teams and manufacturers from around the world.
The racing series provides a competitive environment for the automotive industry in terms of promoting the development of electric cars. Audi's e-tron FE-06 is a good example of a racing car that has been developed into a standard vehicle. The races are held around the globe in the city centers of major cities. In this way, electromobility is showcased where it will be utilized in the future: in the urban environment.
What's more, fans of the racing series are able to make an impact on the races in a completely new way: they can give their favorite driver around 70 hp of additional power for a few seconds using the FanBoost. Unparalleled!
Formula E is perfectly suited to our competence in the areas automotive, eMobility and battery sectors. This is how KUKA has supported the Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler team since March 2017 as a partner and sponsor; the two companies having the common aspiration to give their best at all times: Peak performance.

BATON ROUGE — Lawmakers digging into the details of Gov. Bobby Jindal's plan to restructure Louisiana's tax code said yesterday that his administration needs to do a better job selling the tax plan to the public.
During a House committee meeting, some said their constituents are calling to express worry that Jindal's proposal to get rid of income tax and raise sales tax will end up costing them.
Revenue department leader Tim Barfield, the governor's point man on the tax rewrite, started walking members of the House Ways and Means Committee through Jindal's proposal. He gave them the first specific lists outlining what new items would be subject to sales taxes and what sales tax breaks would be removed.
Jindal wants to eliminate personal and corporate income taxes without shrinking the revenue available for state programs and services.
To offset the loss of $3 billion, Jindal proposes to increase state sales taxes from 4 percent to 5.88 percent and add state sales taxes to an array of currently untaxed items, like haircuts, cellphone purchases, museum visits, accounting services and cable TV.
Lawmakers will decide the proposal's fate in the regular session that begins April 8.
Rep. Joel Robideaux, an accountant who will sponsor the tax bills for the governor, said working families would benefit from Jindal's tax plan under every scenario he's been able to devise.
But he added, "The message is clearly not out there, based on the phone calls we're getting in our districts now. (The callers are saying,) 'This seems terrible. This doesn't make sense.'"
Critics of the plan say it would place higher tax burdens on the poor and middle-class, making them pay a larger share of their income to support government services. A coalition of more than 250 religious leaders submitted a letter to the governor opposing the plan as an unjust burden on low- and middle-income residents.
The House committee members pushed for more information from Barfield so they could explain the tax swap to residents back home and determine if it's better for businesses and families as the governor claims.
Rep. Major Thibaut, D-New Roads, said people want to get rid of income taxes but worry when they hear about the sales tax increases, which would make Louisiana's combined average local and state sales tax the highest in the nation.
Barfield said the Department of Revenue will soon roll out a website that lets people compute what the tax changes would mean for them.
"We have not spent enough time getting the message out. This is a big win for working class families in Louisiana, and it's a big win for economic development and job creation in Louisiana," he said.
Barfield has said most people would see a tax break under the plan, while businesses would pay more to keep the plan "revenue neutral."
He said the change would give businesses more stability in deciding how and when they pay taxes because they can determine which goods and services they can buy. Also, he said it would simplify a tax code riddled with exemptions that are difficult for businesses to navigate.
"That sounds good, and I'm for all that stuff," Thibaut said. "But what's not resonating at home is when people read we're going to have the highest sales tax."
Lawmakers also questioned the data used to devise the governor's plan and began combing through individual items included in it.
Rep. Jeff Thompson, R-Bossier City, questioned why the administration proposed getting rid of sales tax holidays for hurricane preparedness, school supplies and guns and outdoor equipment.
"I would ask that you look into that. Although that's not a big number, it's a meaningful number to families," Thompson said.

It's called Cute Seal (www.cuteseal.com), made by a Canadian company in Vancouver. The diapers are now available in Canada, China, the United Arab Emirates and Singapore, and a global product launch is upcoming.
The company, which showcased its products at the 2016 Vancouver International Fashion Week, claims that the diapers are softer, more comfortable and prevent diaper rash. In addition, Cute Seal diapers feature a three-dimensional soft waistband that fits the contour of the baby's bottom and a special urine detection system that indicates when a change is necessary.
All Cute Seal products have passed stringent tests for quality and received numerous international certifications.
What makes these diapers so comfortable? They use an ultra-thin polymer core structure, which promotes fast absorption, and an inner film that breathes so the baby's skin stays clean, dry and refreshed. The Cute Seal diaper also makes use of a three-dimensional, double-sided leak-proof design that prevents side leakage.
The inner part of the diaper is an uneven pearl surface, which minimizes direct skin contact and maximizes air circulation. The slightly bumpy service also provides a gentle massage, promoting blood circulation.
Cute Seal also offers baby wipes and tissues that are specially made for young children.
Four sizes of diapers are available for babies (newborn, small, medium, large, extra-large) as well as "cute pants" diapers for children age 1-5. The "cute pants," designed for nighttime use, are available in large, extra large and extra-extra large.
"The combination of a new design and new materials makes for a truly comfortable diaper," said a company spokesperson. "We received calls and e-mails from many satisfied parents who tell us that incidences of diaper rash are almost nonexistent. We've also heard from many parents whose babies have experienced allergic reaction to other products, but not ours."
The design and technology of Cute Seal diapers are evolving and the company is working on an improved model that utilizes an innovative surface layer that is even more comfortable than the current product.
For additional information visit the Cute Seal website (www.cuteseal.com) or contact Cute Seal at email@example.com or 888-673-4363.

« Back | Forward »
A couple of weeks ago, we discussed the lack of unanimity in the emerging markets sell-off. While the emerging markets index suggested distress within the class, a closer look revealed that only a few countries were truly under fire.
A higher conviction sell-off would have been less discriminatory. This analysis led us to believe that the selling would more than likely reverse. We posted our emerging markets opinion on Aug. 30. Since then, the emerging market index has advanced nearly 7 percent. We illustrate this not to pat ourselves on the back for making the right call, but to demonstrate that although the direction of the market matters, it's often the conviction of the market that matters more.
Market breadth measures participation in up or down trends. Applying breadth analysis reveals whether a movement has broad support or narrow support. For example, in 1999 the S&P 500 advanced 21 percent. Great year! Unfortunately, while tech stocks nearly doubled that year, few other stocks participated. In fact, the differential between the top performing sector (tech) and the worst performing sector (utilities) eclipsed 100 percent that year. If you owned financial, health care, utility or consumer staples stocks in 1999, you most likely lost money. 1999 reads as a great year in the history books, but, in reality, it was not. Its low conviction, narrow personality unveiled itself to investors in 2000, as tech fell 40 percent and dragged the entire market down with it.
Perhaps the most widely followed measure of market breadth is the advance/decline line. This technical measure tracks the difference between the numbers of stocks advancing versus the number of stocks declining. A rising market with a rising advance/decline line conveys broad rally support. A rising market with a falling advance/decline line (a la 2007) conveys narrow rally support and underlying fragility. Applying this measure to the current market advance uncovers encouraging levels of support as volume momentum validates current levels and supports further gains. According to our advance/decline analysis, this bull has broad based support.
Another widely tracked indicator to measure the internal fortitude of an advance is the number of stocks hitting 52-week highs versus the number of stocks hitting 52-week lows. During the August sell-off, at no point did the number of 52-week lows over a trailing five-day period exceed the number of 52-week highs. This indicates that the August sell-off lacked deep conviction. Currently, the number of stocks hitting new highs well exceeds the number of stocks hitting new lows. The high-low analysis also depicts broad based support.
Unfortunately, broad based sponsorship does not itself preclude painful sell-offs. However, a market with a strong core, as this one has, needs a pretty strong gut punch to topple over. That gut punch could come from the Fed, Syria or the impending debt debate. Yet these threats alone do not have enough power to stem the upward bias. Forward expectations at the moment favor the bulls; for the bears to gain control of this market, they will need more than fear-mongering.

CALGARY — Michael Louie spent his "entire life trying to find Michelle Lang," only to lose her to a roadside bomb in Afghanistan this week, months before they were to marry.
"The worst part of my day was having to leave her in the morning to go to work," Louie said Thursday, sobbing, in an interview with the Calgary Herald.
"The best part of my day was when she came home to the door after work and I got to kiss her hello."
Even before Louie proposed in November on a drizzly Vancouver night, the pair had booked the Calgary Winter Club for their July wedding.
Lang, the Herald's health writer, wanted to arrange as much as possible before heading to Afghanistan for a six-week reporting assignment, her first time covering a war.
Now, instead of planning their wedding, her fiance is helping plan her funeral.
Lang and four Canadian soldiers were killed Wednesday by a bomb that tore through their light-armoured vehicle during a routine patrol outside Kandahar City. Four other soldiers and one civilian were injured in the blast, for which the Taliban has claimed responsibility.
Lang is the first Canadian journalist killed while covering the military mission in Afghanistan.
In a statement he released Thursday, Louie said her death "is the darkest and most painful moment of my life.
"I am absolutely devastated by the loss of my dearest Michelle — my partner, my best friend, and the love of my life."
Family members say shock doesn't begin to describe how Lang's death has affected her parents, Art and Sandra, and younger brother, Cameron.
"You were a great friend, an extraordinary reporter and a better sister than anyone could have ever deserved," her brother wrote on her Facebook page. "The world was a far better place with you in it."
Her parents and brother were in Mexico planning Cameron's own wedding when they learned Wednesday that their daughter had died.
In the B.C. lower mainland, Aunt Catherine Lang said this should have been a joyous year for the family with wedding plans in the air. But the Langs were also anxious about their daughter's assignment in Afghanistan.
Louie was too.
Although worried, Louie knew he couldn't ask her not to go. A former Red Cross worker, he understood the pull of working in a war-torn, developing country.
"She would have regretted not going. This is what Michelle does. It's her passion in life," said Louie, an emergency planner with Alberta's energy regulator.
In some respects, the love between the two was the result of good karma.
She'd helped a few friends find love. She matched up two of her good pals two years ago and within about a year, the pair married.
So it seemed only fitting that Lang, 34, and Louie, 35, would meet through a mutual friend who had a hunch the two would hit it off. Their attraction quickly grew to commitment.
It didn't take long for Lang and Louie to fall in love.
They met in Calgary at a group dim sum gathering, knowing their mutual friend thought they should date.
They did a few weeks later, talking effortlessly for three hours at a cocktail bar, he recalled.
"The conversation never stopped and it was never awkward. It was at that moment I was like wow, she's kind of amazing," he said of their first date 18 months ago.
Lang was smitten by Louie, said her friend Robin Summerfield, the subject of Lang's matchmaking.
After Lang and Louie were together for six weeks, Summerfield teased her friend about the new romance and asked whether she was in love.
"You know, I think I am," she told Summerfield, a former Herald reporter.
The depth of Louie's feelings struck him when the couple was at a friend's wedding in the summer of 2008.
"I knew then I was in love with her," he said. "She's intelligent, sophisticated.
"She made me laugh. She made me feel good about myself."
The couple's recent engagement thrilled family and friends.
"I was so excited to see her get married and to finally get everything she deserved," Sarah Noble, one of Lang's oldest friends, wrote in an e-mail.
Now, family members are struggling to come to terms with her death.
"I'll miss her presence," said Lang's 94-year-old grandfather, Art Sr. "We have to live on with her memories."
Her aunt Catherine added: "She always held a special place in our hearts. She was a fun-loving and very, very sweet young girl."
Funeral arrangements for Lang haven't been finalized. Her parents are making their way back to Vancouver from Mexico.
A ramp ceremony will be held Friday at the Kandahar Airfield for Lang and the four fallen soldiers — Sgt. George Miok, Sgt. Kirk Taylor, Cpl. Zachery McCormack, and Pte. Garrett William Chidley. Their bodies are expected to return to Canada on Sunday afternoon, landing at Canadian Forces Base Trenton. From there, they'll travel in a convoy along the Highway of Heroes, a 172-kilometre stretch of Highway 401 between Trenton and Toronto.

This coming Monday marks the first appearance of Munch Mondays in Santa Rosa, where an "Eat Fleet" of six mobile food trucks and carts will set up shop during lunchtime at the expansive and underused parking lot at Third and E streets across from the downtown post office. According to Street-Eatz truck owner Jilly Dorman, the Munch Mondays plan is for the fleet to be there every week. Restrictions on trucks in the city of Santa Rosa have caused some food providers to flock to county land either outside the city limits or in the county pocket of Roseland. Thanks to the support of Raissa de la Rosa at city hall, exceptions have been made in certain downtown areas such as Courthouse Square, Jeju Way and now, the former White House lot on Mondays.
In addition to Dorman's Street-Eatz truck, which will start serving Banh Mi, a popular Vietnamese sandwich, this Monday's lunchtime options include mobile offerings from Chicago Style Hot Dogs, La Texanita, Dim Sum Charlie's, Karma, and Fork, owned by Sarah Piccolo (above). "I really like being part of the audience acceptance of what we're doing," says Piccolo. "There's this notion that we're competing with restaurants, but it's a different concept, eating out of a truck. It's more food on-the-go than sitting down at a restaurant."
Fork's menu will include Dungeness crab sandwiches, Fra'Mani grilled cheese sandwiches with pear compote, soup in a bread bowl and more. Even those hooked on Fork's delicious grass-fed burgers can hang with their vegetarian friends, noshing on either La Texanita's vegetarian burrito or Street-Eatz' Japanese fried tofu plate. Just get there on time—before the engines whirr and lunch rolls away—on Monday, Jan. 10, and each Monday thereafter, at Third and E streets, Santa Rosa. 11:30am&–2pm.

Apotheose is a division 4, double daffodil and is a proper beauty. Flatter, golden yellow petals form the background for the central part of the bloom which is a whirling mix of curvy petaloids interspersed with shorter, vibrant orange corona segments.
These blooms are Double Fortune Hybrids and they are great for cut flowers and mixed in borders and beds. They are a showy flower and will naturalize after being established.
Daffodils welcome you to spring. They are excellent perennial plants for borders and are great for what to plant in-between shrubs. Planting daffodils in pots is also a viable alternative. Also, they are great in woodland gardens and as cut flowers.
Daffodils can be divided into 13 different types, these differences are mostly based on variations of the cups (corona) and the petals (perianth). Daffodils are commonly and interchangeably called Narcissus or Narcissi. Specifically, daffodils are the varieties which have larger cups and larger overall blooms.
There are early indoor and outdoor daffodils, with some being more fragrant than others. Daffodils have a significant amount of variety with their growth; some stems may only bear 1 or 2 flowers, whereas others can reach upwards of 20.
The flowers are generally yellow, orange or white with either uniform cups and petals or contrasting colours.
Daffodil bulbs planting time is in the fall season, approximately 2-4 weeks before the ground freezes. In more severe climates, ensure that the bulbs are covered with at least 6-7 cm of soil. The general rule is to plant the bulbs to a depth that is three times (3X) the size of the bulb. Also, a good depth will help reinforce the plant structure during growth to prevent bending or drooping.
Daffodils grow best in full sun to partially shaded areas. During flowering the plants will need a moist soil and mulching is suggested to maintain moisture. Although they are tolerant of most soil types, daffodils prefer a slightly acidic soil.

It used to be, when a melee fighter died as a result of Augur's stoneshield dmg they would drop dead at the feet of stoneshielded fighter they were attacking which is ok and looks natural.
But after an update the fighter gets rubberbanded back to their side of the field and drops dead back there, this looks unnatural and hurts my eyes every time I see it.
Can you revert it back to how it was initially and let the attacking fighter's corpse stay dead by the stoneshield?
You fixed the corpse rotations after death based on suggestion which means you care for how natural the animations should look so I am getting my hopes up for this one as well.
Thank you.

Academic training is defined as paid employment directly related to the J-1 student's major area of study. The employment may be full- or part-time.
A student in J-1 status may be authorized to participate in academic training during his or her studies or commencing no later than 30 days after completion of studies provided that:
- the student is in good academic standing
- the student has a job offer from a U.S. employer
- the student is recommended for academic training by the department advisor
- the training is an integral or critical part of the student's academic program
- the student receives written approval in advance from the Responsible Officer of the J-1 program
If a student does not have a job offer by the time 30 days after completion is reached, then academic training is forfeited. The actual employment may begin after the 30-day limit.
J-1 students may obtain academic training prior to completion of studies as well as after completion of studies, within the 18-month limit.
Academic training cannot exceed 18 months, including any prior academic training in the United States. Students who have received their PhD and are engaged in post-doctoral research may apply for an additional 18 months of academic training. A new form DS-2019 (formerly known as IAP-66) must be issued for each 18-month training period of academic training for PhDs.
Any academic training granted prior to completion of studies shall be deducted from the amount of academic training available after graduation. Therefore, students are well advised to consider their goals carefully before applying for academic training.
Students sponsored by Fulbright or other USAID agencies may be subject to shorter time limits for academic training. Such students may wish to check with their sponsoring agencies for further information.
Academic training must be recommended by the department and authorized by the J-1 sponsor. If a student has a DS-2019 issued by Binghamton University, then the Office of International Student and Scholar Services authorizes academic training. A student with a DS-2019 issued by an organization other than Binghamton University must obtain authorization for academic training from that organization.
Since an offer of employment is required to obtain approval for academic training, the following information must be provided on the Academic Advisor's Recommendation Form for Academic Training:
- A description of the academic training
- Name and location of the employer
- Name and address of the training supervisor
- Number of hours to be worked per week
- Beginning and ending dates of the training
- How the training relates to the student's field of study
- Why the training is integral or critical to the student's academic program
Once the application for academic training is completed, the Office of International Student and Scholar Services will issue a letter to the student authorizing the specific employment. If the student's current DS-2019 is about to expire, then a new DS-2019 will be issued for academic training purposes.

Peter Walker for CNN • Updated 8th May 2014
Up next
Eurovision -- the curious annual song contest that sees a continent united around its televisions for an evening of high-energy songs, spangled costumes and ill-advised drinking games -- is once more upon us.
Founded in 1956, it was intended as a way to bring together once-warring nations through the innocent medium of pop music.
It hasn't necessarily ended the rivalries (the voting-based results system is notoriously territorial), but for the hundreds of millions watching on TV,
is a well-rehearsed, almost comforting routine.
It's less comforting, however, for the competitors and fans dispatched to an unfamiliar city -- this year's Grand Final will be held May 10 at the B&W Grand Ballroom in Copenhagen -- to uphold or betray national honor with only leotard-clad backing dancers for company.
Help is at hand, though.
Herewith our insiders' guide to maximizing post-Eurovision joy, or minimizing sorrow, in the Danish capital.
Drinking and dancing
Copenhagen is compact for a major capital, with a shade over half a million inhabitants, but it's increasingly famed for nightlife, especially in the
Meatpacking District
-- just like the similarly scenester-filled area of New York -- near the central station.
Here the nightlife concentration is sufficiently dense to allow disgruntled central European crooners to stumble from bar to club.
For those determined to dance, locals suggest
Kodboderne 18; +45 33 313 933
), or
Culture Box
Kronprinsessegade 54
+45 33 325 050)
Slightly closer to the contest's harbor-side venue is the dingy but welcoming
Eiffel Bar
Wildersgade 18
+ 45 32 577 092
) in Christianshavn, a possible home-from-home for this year's face fur-fixated French entry,
Twin Twin
The walls are covered in Parisian iconography and the beer is dirt cheap.
The more adventurous could venture to one of the city's most defiantly hip nightclubs,
(Lille Kongensgade 16; +45 53 668 228)
, which boasts an in-house team of Thai transgender dancers and a mission to -- their words -- "push the borders of wicked indecency."
Enough about
, already.
The seashore-foraging, micro-herb-arranging repeat winner of the
best restaurant in the world
crown is undeniably astounding.
But the chances of getting a table are roughly the same as Portugal's prospects of ever winning Eurovision (this year's entrant,
, was kicked out in the semi-finals, adding to half a century of failure).
Perhaps off limits too are various offshoots such as
, run by a former Noma head chef, or
, where the specialty is braised lamb's head with whipped brain and stuffed eyeballs -- which sounds almost as tricky to digest as
Latvia's saccharine Eurovision entry
Danish restaurant Noma named the world's best
A better bet is smorrebrod, the traditional Danish open sandwiches that are escaping their lunchtime roots and entering the world of fine dining.
Smorrebrod and 10 more new American sandwich heroes
Many of the better known outlets tend to be booked up, but you can try
Sonder Boulevard 72
)off Vesterbro in the city center, which doesn't take reservations and attracts a fashionable crowd.
For more basic fare still, there's always Copenhagen's many and famous hot dog stands.
Harry's Place (
Nordre Fasanvej 269
) is a little ways outside the center, but locals make the trip for both the sausages and the trademark chili sauce, known as krudt -- the Danish word for gunpowder.
Same-sex marriage
Not for everyone, obviously, and arguably a little hard to arrange on a night out.
Nevertheless, this is one of the Eurovision-based attractions promoted by Copenhagen officials.
Throughout the Eurovision weekend the city is encouraging any couples to tie the knot.
Ceremonies can be held on a specially arranged "wedding boat" cruising the harbor.
The marriages are intended to mark both the 25th anniversary of same-sex civil partnerships in Denmark -- the first country in the world to permit them -- and Eurovision's open-minded reputation.
With its focus on flamboyant acts and tight sequined outfits, the contest has always had a decidedly camp air, a reputation sealed when Dana International, an Israeli transgender woman, won in 1998.
Her mantle has been passed this year to Austria's entrant,
Conchita Wurst
, the bearded drag alter ego of singer Tom Neuwirth.
Something of a Danish cliche, perhaps -- the city has one of the highest rates of bike use in the world -- but stick with us, because Eurovision 2014 needs all the environmental help it can get.
This year's event had proudly branded itself the greenest contest ever -- until
newspapers discovered
electricity for the venue itself is being provided by 26 very large, very smelly diesel generators.
Contestants can pedal serenely away from the fumes, and the humiliation of being beaten by Malta's
Mumford and Sons-lite
entry, Firelight, on Copenhagen's famous network of segregated bike lanes.
The city is littered with rental shops. (
Rent A Bike Copenhagen, Adelgade 11; +45 32 12 50 50 and Gasværksvej 5;+45 50 32 11 00).
For those feeling particularly homesick -- or humiliated -- the city's airport, only about six miles from the center, is connected by yet more of those ubiquitous bike lanes.
The Little Mermaid
While arguably the most iconic symbol of Copenhagen, the
bronze statue of Hans Christian Andersen's
famous fairy tale character is underwhelming in real life, standing little more than a meter tall.
Five places to find mermaids
Her harbor-side location, however, is restful -- the perfect place to sit and contemplate what might have been had the seams on the lead dancer's costume held together a little longer.
It's a place to consider also that even if Copenhagen's attractions aren't enough, things could have been much, much more sedate.
The capital won its bid to host the event against a series of notably smaller Danish locations.
Among them was Herning, a city on Denmark's Jutland peninsula whose
tourist information board
lists "libraries" as among the chief attractions.

Public Service Bargaining: Frequently Asked Questions #2 - How and when can I vote on the tentative agreement?
Frequently Asked Questions: #2 How and when can I vote on the tentative public service agreement?
Ballots and information for members to vote on the tentative public service agreement has been couriered to stewards.
The balloting is being conducted by stewards and mail contacts at the worksite. The voting starts on Monday, April 19.
Talks over the Component 5 agreement broke down on February 20, after the employer refused to discuss the union's proposal on conversions and demanded more concessions on hours of work, recall units, and unavailability restrictions for auxiliary employees.
The employer left the table even though progress on significant proposals were within reach.

I know this is the time of year that people usually post about gifts to get other people. But if you haven't been able to tell, my family doesn't celebrate Christmas. And we don't do presents. Which leaves me free to keep cultivating my own wishlist. 😉
High up on that list is this gorgeous Elina Gleizer Torn Silver Ring.
Okay, so it looks kind of like a ring I already have. But it also kind of doesn't. It's exquisite. And unusual. And classy. And rough around the edges. Everything I aspire to be, come to think of it.
(It also comes in a version with black diamonds that I like even better…but I don't like the price better. Still. Thought I would point that out for all of you.)
If I close my eyes and squint, I can see it on my finger! (Or is that my ring that looks kind of like it??)
What are you guys wishing for this holiday season?

Is Bill Gross emotionally exhausted? One would think so from reading his latest outlook, one that is surprisingly subdued. No pondering the meaning of life; no obscure sports or literary references or allusions to … ahem, long-held rumors about actor Richard Gere.
His posit, titled "The Great Escape: Delivering in a Delevering World," is a straightforward discussion of what happens when interest rates can decline no further and mild inflation takes hold.
"When interest rates cannot be dramatically lowered further or risk spreads significantly compressed, the momentum begins to shift, not necessarily suddenly, but gradually – yields moving mildly higher and spreads stabilizing or moving slightly wide," Gross, chairman of bond behemoth PIMCO, writes. "In such a mildly reflating world, unless you want to earn an inflation-adjusted return of minus 2%-3% as offered by Treasury bills, then you must take risk in some form."
The risk to which he refers involves the use of high quality, shorter duration and inflation-protected bonds; dividend paying stocks with a preference for developing over developed markets; and inflation-sensitive, supply-constrained commodity products.
Launching into a historical review of "leverage" and how we arrived at this present point of "delevering" (his word), Gross takes readers from the Bretton Woods Accord, through the abandonment of the gold standard by the Nixon administration and into the crisis of 2008.
Today, Gross writes, "Global financial markets are only selectively delevering. What delevering there is is most visible with household balance sheets in the U.S. and Euroland peripheral sovereigns like Greece …The total amount of debt however is daunting and continued credit expansion will produce accelerating global inflation and slower growth in PIMCO's most likely outcome."
In such a world, he adds, financial assets outperform relative to real assets as wealth is brought forward and stolen from future years if real growth cannot replicate historical total returns.
"This outperformance by financial as opposed to real assets is a result of the long journey and ultimate destination of credit expansion that I've just outlined, resulting in negative real interest rates and narrow credit and equity risk premiums—a state of financial repression as it has come to be known, that promises to be with us for years to come."
Forgetting himself, he writes that, "It reminds me of an old movie starring Steve McQueen called The Great Escape where American prisoners of war were confined to a POW camp inside Germany in 1943 … it was their duty as British and American officers to try to escape and get back to the old normal. Similarly though it is your duty to try to escape today's repression."
In plain speak, he concludes that for bond markets, PIMCO favors higher quality, shorter duration and inflation protected assets. For stocks, it favors developing over developed. Favor shorter durations here, too, which means consistent dividend paying as opposed to growth stocks. For commodities, it favors inflation-sensitive, supply-constrained products. Lastly, for all asset categories, "be wary of levered hedge strategies that promise double-digit returns that are difficult in a delevering world."

PARIS - French President Francois Hollande is saluting entrepreneurs who set up businesses in the country amid a fierce debate about whether high taxes are leading wealthy French to leave.
Hollande's plans to raise a slew of new taxes, including a 75 per cent bracket for revenue over €1 million, have raised grumbles.
The debate intensified when actor Gerard Depardieu announced he had moved to tax-friendly Belgium and would renounce his French citizenship.
Prime Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault called the move "pathetic," but Hollande wouldn't cast aspersions.
Instead, in a speech Monday, he said: "I want to salute the values of those who no doubt have lots but agree to pay their taxes in France, to produce in France, to create jobs in France, to serve their country."

Monday - Friday
The commercial immersion blender is perhaps one of the most ingenious and time- saving tools found in the commercial kitchen. Gone are the days of transferring hot soups, or other prepared foods, to separate containers for blending and puréeing. The stick ( or shaft, or wand) virtually eliminates the mess, as well as the risk of injury. Your immersion blender is built to go directly into a hot pot of soup, a container of salad dressing, or a bowl of cream waiting to be whipped. Power mixers, sometimes called stick mixers, have stainless steel shafts and blades that are strong enough to puree, whip, or emulsify, and are made for quick and easy clean up. Immersion sticks come in different sizes - up to 30 inches, so you will want to choose one that best fits your needs. Look for an easy to handle, ergonomic design, NSF and UL listings.

-Is this the email address to send the following sorts of java3D questions?
-Could someone please give responses with code specific answers?
#1 How may I define a circle or an oval (flat, 2D) in a 3D space?
Do I do a square with 4 submitted curvature normals?
#2 When using IndexedGeometryArray (s), in a situation with only one viewer, is there a way to disable
rendering (filling) for various items in my 3D world for the surfaces which face backwards where one
cannot see, as a memory or computation save?
#3 Is it possible to obtain point location and colour data for any rendered point in a 3D universe?
There is a "Screen perspective" class, what is it called?
Is it possible to obtain x,y,z pixels the way one may from a classic java Raster in 2D?
#4 When loading a 3D item from, for example, a *.obj file, are all the points of that item inside a java3D
IndexedGeometryArray object? What is the typical call I need to obtain my indexedTriangleArray, or the IndexedQuardArray?
#5 Are there any freely available, commercially applicable, java3D add on libraries for visual effects,
like for rippling water, color "gaseous" visual effects, fire, etc. which are in java but not
a small component of some other larger project?
#6 In order to have my collection of IndexedGeometryArray points (and designated special normals) drawn and filled in, my program will make a call to the NormalGenerator Class.
If the object itself is to change by the stretching and moving of a defining point during runtime, and to experience a line, but mainly a surface change (rippling), does one just call the NormalGenerator iteratively? However won't this slow down the program to the point of thrashing? Is NormalGenerator
designed for this iterative calling without slowdown? (I presume I would give it its own dedicated Thread)?
#7 I wish to draw a wire rendered object, with smoothed and "glowing" wires. I know how to do wire rendering, non surface rendering. I do note that a Material object may have an emissive color. I plan to apply a Material to an Appearance object, and then apply that. However does the material object work on IndexedLineArray objects when there is no fill surface?
#8 I am trying to configure proguard to generically work on executable .jar, applet jar, .war and .ear files
to prevent decompilation, at all, at least by "The Java Decompiler" jd-gui program. I want a generic .pro file that will successfully run, prevent decompilation, and allow standard execution as is for .jar, .war, .ear files. I particularly want the following to be done inside myr .*ar files' contained .class files:
-Class name, method name, field name CONFUSED RENAMING obfuscation.
-String literal TRANSMUTING/EQUIVALENCE obfuscation.
Can someone set me up with a .pro file I can use?

Prefab, or prefabricated homes, have made a resurgence as a dwelling style over the last few years. During the first half of the twentieth century, one could order a home from the Sears and Roebuck Catalog and have a kit shipped by train, but now prefab homes are far easier to come by. Modern kits are ideal for smaller lots and have become an eco-friendly – and affordable – option for someone looking for a highly efficient new construction dwelling.
As the name indicates, prefab homes are primarily constructed off-site in pieces or portions, and then fully assembled on the lot itself. Prefab homes come in a wide variety of styles, from backyard cottages to modern, single-family homes.
Elements of design:
- Built off-site and assembled on location
- Eco-friendly options
- Versatile and highly customizable
- Ideal for small lots or backyard cabins

McCarthy still searching for mental equilibrium
CINCINNATI -- Brandon McCarthy has done his best not to dwell on, or think about, the line drive he took off his head last September that fractured his skull and caused a brain contusion.
That seemed to be going just fine until Aug. 4 -- his first start back after a stint on the disabled list with a shoulder issue.
In the fifth inning of that game vs. the Red Sox, Shane Victorino hit a shot back up through the middle that nearly hit McCarthy.
"The ball that Victorino hit back at me kind of [messed] me up," McCarthy said. "I don't feel like I take it out to the mound with me, but that was the first time I was really shaken after something."
It came a couple of months after McCarthy suffered a seizure while out to dinner with his wife, Amanda. The seizure was related to the head trauma he suffered last year.
"You do as much as you can to forget and move and move and move and move, but for that [Victorino's liner] to happen coming off the DL, with the seizure and you're on medication and all of a sudden these things become very real again," McCarthy said. "That happens, and you realize you're that close away again, without being able to feel like I have any protection. We're not there yet with a [protective] hat. It's just trying as much as you can to get past it, get past it, get past it and just take the [darn] ball and go out and throw. I think it still exists in there, I just don't know to what extent it does."
McCarthy speculated that his mechanical issue of flying open -- pulling his glove away from his body as his arm comes forward -- could be in an effort to protect himself on the mound.
That prevents McCarthy from finishing his pitches in a strong position and could explain why his cutter has not been an effective pitch for him lately.
The D-backs hope McCarthy figures it out soon, because they can ill afford another disaster like Wednesday night -- when he allowed seven runs and lasted just 2 1/3 innings.
"I don't know if it's as much mechanical as he thinks it is," Arizona manager Kirk Gibson said. "I saw him throw two pitches to [Reds catcher Devin] Mesoraco, just wipe out. How many balls did you see those guys swing over the top of sinkers down and in? How many balls did they hit off their foot [Wednesday] night? Pretty simple, what you want to go with in my mind. He's been throwing his cutter a lot, and I don't think it's a great pitch for him. He's not consistent with it."

Morneau, Doumit back in action for Twins
NEW YORK -- After Justin Morneau and Ryan Doumit were held out of the lineup on Thursday with soreness stemming from a week of playing on artificial turf, they both returned against the Yankees on Friday.
Morneau was back at first base and batting fourth, and Doumit made the start at designated hitter and hit fifth. The Twins returned to natural grass at Yankee Stadium after playing the Blue Jays and Rays on turf.
"It's just the turf beating the living fire out of our legs," manager Ron Gardenhire "[Morneau] is not getting any younger now. He's going to go through some of those things, and it was just a lot of days of him running around. So he was just a little sore."
Doumit was also hurting from catching 13 innings on Wednesday night, but he did appear as a pinch-hitter on Thursday, drawing a walk.
"Doumit was really sore yesterday with his legs and back and everywhere else because of that stuff," Gardenhire said. "Plus, he caught 13 innings. So we had a couple of guys beat up yesterday. So we just have to work our way through it, and getting off that turf should help us."
Gardenhire also shook up the lineup by moving right fielder Chris Parmelee into the two-hole for just the second time this season behind leadoff hitter Brian Dozier.
"We're just kind of ad-libbing as best as we can," Gardenhire said. "[Parmelee] takes pitches. So we'll see what happens. We figure if Doze gets on, maybe he can hook a ball through the hole. We're really searching here for what will work, because nothing has been working recently."

How Global Are You?
Working with OEM engineers and designers to "integrate" your components or process into the specifications for a new vehicle or engine design is paramount to gaining the edge on the competition.
#Fiat #GeneralMotors #Ford
OEMs and suppliers of all tiers are having trouble grappling with ever-increasing production volumes in North America. On the whole, the supply chain is pushed to the edge in North America on several levels while producers in other regions—China, India and Brazil—are taking a modest breather from the frantic growth rate. Yet those in Western Europe are starting to come to grips with decades of blind neglect from the basics of any industry: supply must reach equilibrium with demand at some point.
In the midst of the heavy decline and restructuring of the North American industry in 2009, the seeds of rebound were already sewn at General Motors, Ford and Fiat's new acquisition, Chrysler. A major aspect of the rebound was to be a surge in global structures offered by the Detroit 3. Global platforms offer several advantages for OEMs, suppliers and customers. Enhanced economies of scale, inter-region production flexibility, lower tooling and development costs, and supplier consolidation through component/system commonization are all major advantages. This transformation of the production framework has been outlined before, though there is an eventual victim as this story plays out—the regional supplier.
Before we outline the trials and tribulations of today's regional supplier, it is important to define exactly what one is. Today's regional supplier needs to transcend two major issues which are counter to the shift toward global platforms: Multi-region production capability and multi-region design/development support. This is not to say that the former is more important than the latter—it depends on where one is in the vehicle, which OEM they are supplying, and the technology/logistics characteristics of the component/system. Many suppliers with production capability in one region will survive in today's evolving globally integrated production environment through multi-region design, engineering and development support. That is a growing staple of a successful supplier of any stripe. Economies of scale, lowest cost location and the reduced relative importance of logistics of components which ship efficiently is an enabler. The lack of global design capability is more critical for the future.
The ability to impact design of components and systems early in the process is key to margin enhancement and preservation. Working with OEM engineers and designers to "integrate" your components or process into the specifications for a new vehicle or engine design is paramount to gaining the edge on the competition—well before the RFQ is sent to the broader supply base. Strong regional suppliers are being eliminated from consideration despite flawless quality, delivery and even cost structures. In the end, OEMs are seeking the lowest possible landed cost—especially when logistics are concerned.
Last decade, the surge toward global suppliers started in earnest. The ability to gain business in growth regions of China, Brazil and Eastern Europe demanded that many companies required a local production presence. This was achieved through several means—royalty arrangements, licensing, joint ventures, and wholly owned subsidiaries. Each structure drives a certain level of risk and control which a supplier has to grapple with. To skirt the need to expend capital and resources to truly foreign environments, many decided to "act global" through non-equity affiliations. OEMs globally accepted these arrangements given that the core supplier had a hand in ensuring delivery, quality and performance of the globally sourced component—all seemed well. Along came the 2009 auto downturn which brought several suppliers to the edge. Without the means to aid those linked through affiliations, several OEMs were left to seek new sources as many of these loose linkages began to unravel. Going forward, stronger linkages through equity participation would be a growing requirement by global OEMs—seeking the need to truly deal with one entity from a design, delivery and production perspective.
As noted, several suppliers will still skirt the need to build in several regions due to considerations of capital and economies of scale. This will not reduce the need to support the development of their components and systems into platforms designed outside their home region. In North America alone, the share of vehicle development for vehicles built in the region will decline. Translation: You had better establish a robust global design and development capability close to the core design centers in Germany, Japan, China, and Korea if you want to continue to be a long-term, leading-edge supplier. In this case, "location, location, location" refers to working closely with the core design centers to ensure your firm's capability is first in the minds of the OEMs.
The pressure on regionally focused suppliers will intensify over the balance of this decade. OEMs are determined to work with fewer suppliers as they cite overhead efficiency, better technology partnering, and in the end, lower cost as a driver toward fewer overall suppliers. As strong volumes in North America are masking the deficiencies of many regional suppliers, the blemishes will begin to appear as new global suppliers emerge and capacities rise.

Gaze at Shanghai's avant-garde architecture, tangled flyovers and massive new shopping and housing districts, all of which seem to have sprung up with magical haste, like mushrooms after rain, and you can see the city of the twenty-first century emerging. The best place to see all this is from above – from very high above, on the observation deck at the top of the World Financial Building, to be precise. This blunt, tapering tower with a hole near the roof – locals nickname it "the bottle opener" – is, at 492m, the tallest building in China, its 100th-floor observation deck the second highest in the world.
Though Shanghai is often compared to Blade Runner's dystopian city, the journey up the tower is more reminiscent of the space station in 2001, as greeters usher you along hushed corridors to the pod-like lift. Emerging a minute later, with your ears well and truly popped, you are confronted with a 360-degree view of the urban sublime. Space is at a premium in Shanghai, so the city has built up rather than out – by population it's four times denser than New York. Those claustrophobic streets and jostling showcase buildings make for an astonishing cityscape.
To the south is Pudong: twenty years ago this was mostly paddy fields, but today it's new-build as far as the eye can see, with the unreal sheen of an architectural model. Right next to you you're looking down on one of the most beautiful modern buildings in Asia, the pagoda-like Jinmao Tower. Below, barges ply the Huangpu River, an example of the trade that is the source of the city's wealth. Across the water are the fusty colonial-era buildings of the Bund, where Art Deco classics such as the Peace Hotel show why the city was once nicknamed the Paris of the East.
One caveat, though – this is not a place for the nervous. Hardened glass tiles in the floor allow you to look right down beneath your feet and, rather disconcertingly, a sign asks you not to jump on them.
The World Financial Building is in Pudong, not far from the Lujiazui subway stop. The entrance to the observation deck (daily 8am–10pm) is in the southwest side of the building.

The singer is currently on a comeback tour with her band No Doubt with her two sons - Kingston, three, and 10-month-old Zuma, her sons with her rocker husband Gavin Rossdale - and admits her heavy schedule is taking its toll.
However, the 'Don't Speak' singer insists she wouldn't swap her busy life for a more sedate existence She said: "I am exhausted, I'm not going to lie, with the babies and the records, the tour, designing. There's so many things going on."
However, the 'Don't Speak' singer insists she wouldn't swap her busy life for a more sedate existence. She added: "I'm good. I'm happy and so grateful that we're still able to be doing this so that makes it all worth it." Before joining his mother on tour, Kingston spent some time on the road with Gavin, and the former Bush star says he loved having his child around. He revealed recently: "It's been a really good bonding experience. He's so natural, so easy. "Sometimes we'll go to museums of modern art so he can see a big splash of colour on the walls. I found a way to kill some time in New York by asking him to look out the window and tell me every time he saw a yellow taxi. He was so into it. We had a really good time."

Jennifer Garner Comes To Ben's Defense
Watch what you say about Ben Affleck! Director Kevin Smith says that Ben's protective wife Jennifer Garner threatened to "kick his a**" after he poked fun at the State of Play star.
Kevin, who worked with Jen on the 2006 flick, Catch & Release, told a crowd at Carnegie Hall this week how the mom-of-two came to her husband's defense.
"Jennifer does not share the same sense of humor as me - she did not like my jokes. I was picking on Ben Affleck and making fun of him because I've known him for a really long time - I was talking smack - and Jennifer goes, 'You know, if you keep saying stuff about him, I'm going to kick your a**.' And she could - I've seen Alias. She has a real girly sense of humor and didn't understand that I was kidding."
Kevin insists he's actually a saint compared to Ben when it comes to telling jokes. Describing the actor as "one of the most intelligent people on the planet" he goes on to say, "I remember talking to Ben and being like, 'I know your lady is not finding me amusing. Ben, I've known you for years, and you are far sicker than I am!' His jokes are way dirtier than mine. He's made jokes to me, and I've been like, 'Ben, you need to go to church.'"
Jen and Ben, who are parents to daughters Violet, 3, and Seraphina, 5 months, will be celebrating their 4th wedding anniversary later this month.
Obama:"If I Could Be Anything In Life,I Would Be A Good Father"
With Father's Day just around the corner, President Barack Obama took some time to reflect on his years as a father to his two daughters Malia, 11, and Sasha, 8. The 44th US president, who was raised by a single mother, recently penned a letter to his daughters. The following is an excerpt:
It is rarely easy. There are plenty of days of struggle and heartache when, despite our best efforts, we fail to live up to our responsibilities. I know I have been an imperfect father. I know I have made mistakes. I have lost count of all the times, over the years, when the demands of work have taken me from the duties of fatherhood. There were many days out on the campaign trail when I felt like my family was a million miles away, and I knew I was missing moments of my daughters' lives that I'd never get back. It is a loss I will never fully accept.
Obama also reflects on his ideals as a father: "I think back to the day I drove Michelle and a newborn Malia home from the hospital nearly 11 years ago… I think about the pledge I made to her that day: that I would give her what I never had—that if I could be anything in life, I would be a good father."
The president's letter will run this Sunday in Parade Magazine.

ETOnline.com reports that Dennis Quaid and wife Kimberly have finally reached a settlement with Cedars Sinai Medial Center, the hospital where, in 2007, their twins were given an accidental overdose of heparin, a blood thinning drug.The Quaids will receive $500,000 in their settlement with the hospital, which is to be split equally between twins Zoe Grace and Thomas Boone.Cedars Sinai is also offering free medical care to Zoe and Thomas for any related health problems that may arise due to the heparin overdose. The twins, who were carried by a surrogate mother, were born November 18, 2007.
Her life without Mommy
In April 2007, he obtained custody of the beautiful youngster, just months after the tragic death of her mom, Anna Nicole Smith. In the years that have followed, Larry's been tackling life as a single dad, and in an exclusive interview with Access Hollywood's Tony Potts, Larry said he cherishes every moment with his little girl, who turns three in September.
"She tapped me on my shoulder yesterday and she said, 'Dad, are you healthy?'" Larry recounted to Tony. "I said, 'Where did that come from?'"
It's impossible not to notice Dannielynn's resemblance to Anna Nicole, a fact not lost on Larry.
"The older that she gets, the more she's starting to look like her mother," he said.
Anna Nicole passed away just five months after Dannielynn's birth and Larry is determined to keep her memory alive for their daughter.
"She's at the age now where she starts, you know, asking about mommy – 'Where's mommy?'" he revealed. "I painted a picture of her mom… She loves it. She goes over and kisses it every night and things like that are real heartbreaking. Above my bed there's pictures of Anna and she climbs up every morning and says, 'Hi mommy!' and 'Goodnight mommy.' Also when she's being naughty I say, 'Mommy's watching!'"
Tony Potts was with Larry when he left the Bahamas after he won custody of Dannielynn and brought her home to the U.S., and Larry recalled that time during the new interview.
"It's weird, when you look back at all that… [Back] then I didn't even know how to hold her and now I'm like, 'Please let me put her down,'" Larry laughed. "Would you put her in movies, if she shows an interest?" Tony asked.
"She obviously loves the camera," Larry said. "I wouldn't put her there. If she's at the age she wants to do it, then, you know, we can talk about it… I don't want to hold her back from doing the things she wants to do."
thats so sad the part about her kissing mommys picture anna would be proud of how pretty she was.

Our Crucifixion With Christ
December 30, 2014
"Knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin." - Romans 6:6
"That you put off, concerning your former conduct, the old man which grows corrupt according to the deceitful lusts." - Ephesians 4:22
Our old man (nature) was crucified with Christ, this is past tense, it is already an established fact for every child of God. You must see this and believe this, and you must choose to think differently. Experientially, the believer is to reckon (to count) it to be so by putting off the old man and putting on the new man. This is talking about putting on the Lord Jesus Christ, and it is a moment-by-moment act of your human will. It is a choice that we all must choose if we are to walk in the Spirit. Today, start by choosing to think differently until you think differently without choosing.

A torn medial collateral ligament (MCL) is a serious knee injury, especially for athletes. Ligaments are long, rope-like bands that fasten bones together. The MCL helps keep the knee stable.
Teens who have a torn MCL tend to play contact sports, like football and soccer. More severe injuries happen when the outside of the knee is struck, causing it to unnaturally bend inward (toward the other knee). MCL tears can also happen when the lower leg twists or bends out too far. This creates tension on the MCL, a rope-like band, and it stretches or breaks in half.
Someone with a partially or completely torn MCL might have swelling and pain in the first 24 hours of injury. Fortunately, this injury can heal on its own after 1 to 6 weeks of resting the joint.
Most people with an MCL injury will still need to undergo rehabilitation (rehab) therapy to help regain strength in the joint.
The MCL is one of the four main ligaments in the knee joint. It's on the side of the knee that's close to the other knee. One end of the ligament is attached to the femur, while the other end is attached to the tibia.
With the lateral collateral ligament (LCL), which is in the same location on the outside of the knee, the MCL helps prevent the knee joint from bending too far from side-to-side.
Someone with a partially or completely torn MCL may or may not have symptoms, depending on the severity of the injury.
Pain and swelling can be intense initially, and some people with more severe injuries will have some instability when walking, feeling "wobbly" or unable to put weight on the affected leg.
Many people, especially those who are familiar with the injury or have torn a ligament before, report hearing a "pop" sound — the sound of the shinbone popping out of and back into the knee joint.
Someone who has injured a knee — whether on the field or at home — should stop all activity to prevent further injury, and get immediate medical care.
In the meantime, keep the area iced and elevated as much as possible to reduce swelling. As long as walking isn't painful, it's OK to walk with an MCL tear. But if it hurts, don't put weight on the knee.
At the doctor's office or emergency room, doctors will do physical exams and imaging tests to determine if there's a knee injury and, if so, how severe it is.
To help diagnose an MCL injury, doctors do a Valgus test. The person lies down flat, and the doctor moves the affected leg out to the side while flexing the knee about 30 degrees. The doctor places one hand on the back of the knee joint and the other on the top side of the ankle. The doctor then rotates the shin bone and pushes the foot outward, to see how far the MCL will extend. Too much flexibility can signal an injury.
To properly diagnose MCL injuries, doctors usually do these tests in combination or along with other physical exams.
While X-rays might be taken to find the extent of the injury, they only look at bone and can only confirm that there are bone fractures in the knee. An MRI, which looks at tissue (like ligaments and muscles), can confirm a partial or complete MCL tear, so some doctors will order one to confirm a diagnosis.
Doctors categorize MCL injuries according to these criteria:
Treating MCL injuries requires initial resting of the joint with ice, elevation, and elastic compression bandages to help ease discomfort, pain, and swelling. It's OK to put weight on the knee as long as it's not painful.
Depending on the severity of the injury, doctors may recommend crutches, limiting physical activity, and a temporary knee brace. Putting too much pressure on the knee can cause reinjury. Over-the-counter or prescription painkillers and anti-inflammatory medicine can help you deal with the pain and feel more comfortable.
Doctors usually recommend rehab therapy to help heal the knee and to:
Most people do rehab at a center three times a week, with daily exercises they practice at home. Some people do accelerated rehab programs with more frequent therapy sessions, but recovery may not be any faster.
While most sports are off limits — especially the activity that caused the injury — you might try some low-impact activities like swimming, bike riding, or protected running. Talk to your doctor about what you can do. Some of these activities might even work as rehab therapy.
Being told that you can't do the things you love — like running or playing football, field hockey, or softball — can be frustrating. If you're recovering from an MCL injury, especially a severe one, you might feel angry, even depressed, especially if you can't play a sport with friends.
But in the meantime, there are ways to still feel like part of the team. Keeping score, being a coach's assistant, or bringing water to your teammates may help. If you don't want to do these, start something new, like playing the guitar, painting, drawing, or another activity that won't put strain on the knee.
In time, you can do the things you love. If you feel like you're struggling with recovery, consider talking to a counselor for support.

Spindelegger demands information on human rights infringements in Mali / Disturbing reports on the human rights situation in Mali from Amnesty International
VIENNA, Austria, February 4, 2013/African Press Organization (APO)/ -- "Shocking reports are reaching us about human rights infringements in Mali almost on a daily basis", Austrian Vice-Chancellor and Foreign Minister Michael Spindelegger said following publication of the analysis on the human rights situation in Mali by Amnesty International on Friday.
"The people of Mali, who have had to suffer from extremist violence for many months, now have every right to hope that with the return of law and order to the state human rights will once again be respected. This hope must not be disappointed", Spindelegger said. The Foreign Minister said he expected that the reports on violations of human rights would receive appropriate attention and that those responsible for the violations would be brought to justice. "The accusations of human rights violations must be fully investigated. This is a matter of the credibility of the government of Mali and also of the credibility of the involvement of the international community", the Foreign Minister said.
Spindelegger said he was particularly shocked by reports of the forcible recruitment of child soldiers. "The population in Mali must be able to distinguish with complete clarity between arbitrary extremist violence and the law and order of the state" the Vice-Chancellor said, who has also repeatedly called for Austrian participation in the EU training mission for the Mali army EUTM over the past few days.
"This is a matter in which the European soldiers must provide their colleagues in Mali with an appropriate training in areas such as the respect for human rights and the protection extended to the civil population. We should make our contribution here", the Vice-Chancellor said. Austria, which is currently a member of the Human Rights Council of the United Nations, has made a specific and conscious call in the course of the planning work for the European training mission in Mali for human rights training to be written into the EUTM catalogue of tasks, the Vice-Chancellor concluded.

An exhibition at the Fox Talbot Museum, Lacock, which runs from 12 April until 22 September 2013, examines the relevance of black and white photography today.
The exhibition features the work of six artists working with black and white photography: Anthony Jones, Deborah Parkin, Trevor Ashby, Nettie Edwards, Mark Voce and Katie Cooke.
Roger Watson, the curator at the Fox Talbot Museum, comments that the absence of colour forces us to notice the texture, line and shape in the images.
The cameras and techniques used vary from the most recent – the iPhone – to the most traditional – the pinhole camera – demonstrating the almost infinite possibilities of black and white photography. However, all the artists seem to share an interest in contemplative observation and an appreciation of the passing of time.

Kansas City Confidential (1952)
CategoriesCrime Film Noir Free Classic Movies
Kansas City Confidential is a 1952 black-and-white crime film directed by Phil Karlson and starring John Payne. Karlson and Payne teamed up a year later for another black-and-white film, this time a noir, titled 99 River Street, followed by a 1955 color film, Hell's Island.
In Kansas City Confidential, perennial movie bad guys Lee Van Cleef, Neville Brand and Jack Elam play thugs and criminal associates. Although the title would suggest that the story takes place in Kansas City, most of the film actually takes place at a fictitious resort and port in Mexico. The tag line for the film was, "Exploding like a gun in your face!" Kansas City Confidential was director Karlson's second crime film; he also directed Scandal Sheet, also released in 1952, which proved to be a modest commercial success. wiki

Feeling friskier than usual? Do men and women, even that awkward, gangly barista at Starbucks seem to be getting sexier? Have you been daydreaming about going away somewhere sunny and tropical and dancing 'till dawn? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then, take it from an expert (yours truly) - you are infected with the highly contagious Spring Fever.
Warning: Spring Fever is very real and should not go untreated.
Scientists have confirmed that Spring Fever really does exist. It all begins with the eyes, specifically the retina - the part of the eye connected to the brain by the optic nerve that naturally reacts to variations in the amount of daylight. This triggers hormonal changes. Particularly important is the adjustment in melatonin, a hormone that affects our mood and how we sleep. As a result of light changes, the body naturally produces less melatonin during spring, causing a lift in mood, a reduced desire to sleep and an increase in sexual appetite.
However, scientists weren't the first to comment about the effect spring has on our mood; poets and authors have written for centuries that sex drives and energy levels surge in the spring.
"It's spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!" ~ Mark Twain
So whatever should you do? Fear not my little lambs: fortunately, I have the cure. I know it all too well because I had a dreadful case of Spring Fever as well. That is, until I learned how to treat it. The best prescription for Spring Fever is: Spring Break!
But you don't have to go to Cancun or be in college to take a Spring Break – you can create your own version of this fun-spirited holiday at home. It's all about embracing your sexiness and by doing so the world will appear brighter and lighter, with sunshine and happiness all around you.
This Spring - the Vernal Equinox begins on March 20, 2012, at 1:14 A.M.
So, go ahead Goddesses, enjoy Spring Fever, celebrate your sexy self and strut into spring!
