Target-date funds had average total returns of 5.4% for the fourth quarter of 2013, according to a recent Ibbotson Associates report.
Those returns fell behind those of the S&P 500 (10.5%), mainly due to target-date funds' holdings in non-U.S. equities, bonds and real-return asset classes, like real estate investment trusts and commodities.
For the 2013 calendar year, the average total return for target-date funds was a respectable 16.3%. This performance (again) was roughly half the S&P's jump of 32.4% and behind the results of foreign developed-market stocks, which gained 23.3%.
But target-date funds topped returns of many other investment categories for the year, including high-yield bonds (7.4%) and REITs (3%). Categories with losses last year included commodities (-9.5%), Treasury inflation-protected securities (-8.61%), and bonds as measured by the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (-2%).
Morningstar (MSTAR) analyst Josh Charlson points to the Vantagepoint Milestone 2045 (VQRJX) as the top performer in the 2141-2045 group, with '13 returns that nearly reached 28%. Other fund families with strong results in 2013 include American Funds, T. Rowe Price and TIAA-CREF.
"Although that [28%] gain does not match the 32% leap of the S&P 500 Index in 2013, the numbers are impressive nevertheless, especially considering that the typical 2045 fund held at least 10% of assets in bonds and devoted a significant portion to non-U.S. stock markets, which did not keep up with U.S. equities," explained Charlson in an online report.
During Q4, flows into target-date fund had a sizeable rebound, nearing $13 billion compared with $2.3 billion in the earlier period.
Target-Date Issues
At the end of 2013, one-third of retail investors' target-date fund assets were in passively managed target-date funds, up from 24% five years ago.
Total assets held by investors in target-date funds were nearly $621 billion, a 28% jump from the end of 2012, thanks to both bullish equity markets and continued positive flows. Fidelity, Vanguard, and T. Rowe Price hold more than 73% of the retail market, but this share continues to decline.
Still, Vanguard's index-based target-date series, for instance, took in more than $18 billion in new assets last year — more than double the new assets of any other target-date fund series.
While retirement plan sponsors infrequently switch from one target-date series to another, leading target-date providers are seeing changes in their asset levels, according to Jeremy Stempien and Cindy Galiano, both directors of investments for Ibbotson, which is a unit of Morningstar.
"Whereas five years ago Fidelity's target-date series held 39% of the industry's assets, it now holds just under 30%," they noted. "Meanwhile, Vanguard's market share has increased to 27% at the end of 2013 compared to 22% at the end of 2009.
"In addition, JPMorgan's series has attracted significant assets in recent years and now holds a 3% market share, up from less than 1% five years ago. T. Rowe Price's market share has stayed relatively constant at 17%," Stempien and Galiano explained.
Some of fastest-growing series in Q4 included those managed by Allianz (35% growth to $163 million), JP Morgan (25% growth to nearly $19 billion) and American Century (15% growth to more than $10 billion).
Of the 42 fund families with target-date mutual funds, only nine experienced outflows in their open-fund assets in 2013, such as ING ($329 million), AllianceBernstein ($261 million) and Russell ($194 million).
Portfolio strategies that allocated limited amounts of their portfolios to commodities, emerging markets, real estate and TIPS, such as the Nationwide Destination products, helped them outperform their peers, the analysts say. They also note that the "above-average equity weights in the American Funds' glide path also assisted the series in averaging a top-three percentile category rank in 2013."
In addition, Fidelity (among others) moved to increase the equity exposures of its Freedom target-date funds, "resulting in a glide path that more closely resembles its competitors," according to Morningstar's latest target-date report. Also last year, American Century rebranded its series as "One Choice" (abandoning "Livestrong").
Target-Risk Returns
Funds with a select risk profile (conservative, moderate and aggressive) gained 5.0% on average in the fourth quarter and nearly 15% in 2013. Plus, these funds experienced healthy flows of $2 billion, says Ibbotson, with growth-oriented funds gathering the majority of the flows.
As of the end of Q4, total assets in target-risk funds approached $713 billion, an 18% increase from a year ago. The research group says it is "surprised to find that few target-risk funds are actively lowering interest rate risk ahead of expected tapering of the Federal Reserve's bond purchase programs."

A year that started with radical and controversial changes to prepare Ubuntu for touch-based consumer computing is finishing up with a big push into the cloud on servers.
The Ubuntu community has released the first beta of Ubuntu 11.10, codenamed Oneiric Ocelot and expected as finished code for download in October. The beta bulks up on the deployment and management of clouds and cloud-based workloads running Ubuntu Linux on server hardware.
The beta of Ubuntu Server includes Orchestra – which allows you to provision, deploy, host, manage and orchestrate enterprise data centre infrastructure services.
According to one developer, OpenStack is Orchestra's "foremost (but not only) workload". Orchestra features separate servers for provisioning, management, monitoring and logging of applications, servers and workloads.
Orchestra, meanwhile, is tightly integrated with the Ocelot beta's other big push towards clustered servers running Ubuntu Linux as a cloud platform: Ubuntu Ensemble, which is designed to handle service deployment and orchestration for cloud and on "bare metal".
It's billed as something that will bring "devops" to clouds and datacentres running Ubuntu. Devops is the voguish term for trying to bridge the gap between the development and management of applications that was once called application lifecycle management by marketing types. Ensemble provides a set of best practices and formulas – we're told – to help ensure that apps running on a server will operate in the same way once in the cloud. In this case, the cloud in question would be an Amazon-compatible service.
Ubuntu 11.10 is due to hit a second beta on 22 September and final release on 13 October.
Whatever happens in this edition, however, it's a relative sideshow compared to the overhaul of the interface in April with Ubuntu 11.04 that demoted Gnome; and compared to next year's main event, Ubuntu 12.04, due on 26 April.
Ubuntu 12.04 will be a Long-Term-Support (LTS) edition meaning it sets the look, feel and technical direction of successive versions for the next two-year period. The last LTS was 10.04 in April 2010, which saw Canonical chief Mark Shuttleworth's Apple love manifest itself through Ubuntu's current OS-X-like interface and through the integration of the PC distro with online music and backup services provided for Ubuntu users by Canonical. ®

IBM has appointed a trio of executives to head its massive Global Services business, following the departure of 30-year veteran and former head of IGS John Joyce.
A three-executive team of Ginni Rometty, Mike Daniels and Bob Moffatt will report directly to IBM chief executive Sam Palmisano, the company said on Tuesday.
Rometty - previously managing partner of IBM's business consulting services - becomes senior vice president of enterprise business services, Daniels - who led IBM's sales in the Americas - becomes senior vice president for IT services, and Moffatt - formerly senior vice president of supply chain operations - becomes senior vice president of integrated operations.
The executives are no strangers to the ways of Global Services. Rometty, once named one of Time Magazines' Global 2002 "influentials", previously led IBM Global Services in the Americas'- managing a team of 75,000 consultants. Daniels, meanwhile, has previously served as head of IBM Global Services.
Joyce leaves IBM to head-up venture capitalist Silver Lake Partners, after IBM announced quarterly results inline with Wall St targets. IBM brought in $22.3bn for the second quarter, with Global Services accounted for $12bn of that number. Joyce joins a VC whose investments include Ameritrade, Business Objects, Gartner, Network General and Seagate.
Separately, the head of IBM's database business Janet Perna is also leaving. Perna is retiring as general manager of IBM's Information Management Solutions after 31 years with the company. Perna is to be replaced by IBM Lotus general manager Ambuj Goyal.®

I rarely make masala vada as I was not confident making these. We, in our families make plain paruppu vadai in which we don't add garlic, mint leaves or even fennel. Just make it in a different way. So when ever I cross any tea shops, the smell of these masal vadais will hook me. I will keep wondering what could be the factor. Once, one of my grandpa bought a masal vadai in Chidambaram. I loved it a lot. I was very young only around 12 or something, still remembering that vadai. It was as big as our palm size and had lots of onion and veggies too like carrot,peas. Superb vadais.
Then after I started cooking only made few times,but the paruppu vadai veriosn. I asked one of my friend about the flavourful perfect masala vada recipe. She said, pudina(mint leaves) and crushed garlic and fennel does the magic. So tried few times that way and loved the flavour! So today I made it to blog the recipe. Vj doesn't like fennel so I reserved some batter for him without fennel 🙂
Masala vada recipe
Prep Time: 3 Hours soaking time | Cook time: 20 mins | Makes: 20
Rice flour/Raw rice – 1 tblsp
Onion – 1
green chillies – 5
Fennel/ soambu – 1 tsp
Coriander, mint leaves, chopped – each 2 tblsp
Salt – as needed
Curry leaves – 1 sprig
Ginger – 1 inch piece
Garlic – 5-6 cloves
- Soak channa dal for 3-4 hours. First grind ginger, garlic, chillies and fennel coarsely.
- Then drain channa dal completely and add it in two batches and grind coarsely. Not too smooth not very coarse too. Refer picture. One or two channa dal can be whole.
- Mix finely chopped onion, coriander and mint, salt, rice flour and curry leaves.
- Keep a bowl with water and wet both hands. Make equal sized balls first for uniform sized vadas. Heat oil in kadai meanwhile. Shape each ball to flat patties of medium thickness.
- Deep fry in hot oil until golden in colour,flipping once in between. Always cook in medium flame to ensure even cooking and golden colour. When you drop oil, heat should be high. Simmer after you drop all vadas and cook in medium flame until done. Drain in paper towel.
- If we dont soak for enough time, vada may turn hard and too crisp.
- Rice flour or sooji is to make crisp. Its optional too. If using rice, soak along with dal.
- You can also replace ginger and garlic with Ginger garlic paste.
- Grinding ginger and garlic coarsely adds a kind of flavour.
- You can even add a 3/4 tsp of garam masala.
- If you dont like garlic you can omit and add asafoetida 1/4 tsp.
- No need to add water while grinding.
- Red chillies can be replaced for green chillies.
Serve hot with tea/coffee and spicy mint or coconut chutney as side dish for vada …

By DAVID GREEN
Morenci teachers have joined other school groups in agreeing to make financial concessions due to the district's economic situation.
The concession agreement should save the district $90,000 between now and Aug. 31, 2011, with the potential to save much more through early retirement incentives.
The Morenci Education Association (MEA) presented a five-point concession package early in the month and the document received board of education approval Jan. 11. Although not unanimous, union members approved the proposal Jan. 18.
"Due to the economic situation facing Morenci schools, the Morenci Education Association felt that it was necessary at this time to make concessions to help ensure the viability and longevity of our school system," said MEA president Brad Brown in a statement from the union.
Morenci's decision wasn't a popular one at the county and state level.
"Against the recommendation of both the Michigan Education Association and the Lenawee County Education Association (groups that felt we should wait until financial circumstances became even more dire before we took action), Morenci teachers felt strongly that we pass a concession package now to do our part during these difficult economic times," Brown explained.
Morenci's school administration approached union members in September when the impact of falling enrollment was learned.
"It's a very positive step for them to take," said Morenci Superintendent of Schools Kyle Griffith. "It's been a lengthy process and a difficult task for them."
"Every group has given," he said in reference to other school employees. "We're in this together. We're all pitching in to keep the district going."
The greatest savings will come from a decision that each of the 43 full-time union members will contribute $1,000 annually toward their health insurance premium. Teachers who have chosen to receive cash instead of insurance benefits will each receive a thousand dollars less in pre-taxed funds.
The contribution will be made through a payroll deduction.
Brown said the change puts Morenci about in the middle of the pack among county schools regarding staff contribution to insurance costs.
Additional savings will come through the elimination of half of the annual salary increase steps. Before, teachers received an annual salary increase every year in the first 12 years of employment. Now, increases will be given every other year, starting with the second year of employment.
Another change was made in regard to pay for coaches.
Currently, Brown said, coaches receive an annual three percent salary increase once they have served for 10 years and reach the top of the pay scale. The three percent boost will be eliminated.
Coaches who are not members of the union will now receive a flat rate regardless of experience, based on a percentage of a first-year teacher's pay. The percentage varies depending on the sport.
The final point in the concession package—an early retirement incentive—could lead to considerable savings beyond the $90,000.
"That's the biggest potential benefit to the district," Griffith said. "It's really a big plus for the district."
In conjunction with the concessions, eligible teachers are offered a $20,000 retirement incentive if at least three union members choose the option in the same year. If only two members choose to retire, the incentive drops to $15,000.
Teachers have until March 1 to choose the option for the 2010-11 school year.
In effect, Griffith said, the teachers are helping fund the early retirement incentive through their health insurance concession. Instead of early retirement funding coming from the board, he said, the union is participating by reducing the district's costs for employee benefits. It's a very unique situation, he said.
Brown said he hopes the cuts will help protect teaching jobs as well as benefit students.
"Our teachers care deeply for the students, as well as the district as a whole, and we feel that keeping as much of our staff intact as possible is a high priority," he said. "In offering these concessions, we hope staff reductions will be minimized, thus stabilizing class sizes, preventing teachers from teaching outside areas of experience, and continuing to offer quality elective programs."

Not necessarily. A vegetarian diet is not inherently a weight-loss diet, but rather a lifestyle choice.
It is true, however, that adults and children who follow a vegetarian diet are generally leaner than those who follow a nonvegetarian diet. This may be because a vegetarian diet typically emphasizes more fruits and vegetables and includes whole grains and plant-based proteins — foods that are more filling, less calorie dense and lower in fat.
But a vegetarian diet isn't automatically low calorie. You can gain weight on a vegetarian diet if your portion sizes are too big or if you eat too many high-calorie foods, such as sweetened beverages, fried items, snack foods and desserts.
Even some foods marketed as vegetarian can be high in calories and fat, such as soy hot dogs, soy cheese, refried beans and snack bars.
Whether you avoid animal products or not, achieving and maintaining a healthy weight comes down to eating a healthy diet and balancing calories eaten with calories burned.

meeting you
by Barry
This summer I had
the opportunity to attend several local electric cooperative annual
meetings. I was invited to speak about the state of the cooperative
movement in Missouri.
It was a great experience
because it let me come face to face and speak with many of you, the
member/owners of these cooperative businesses. I learned a lot at the
annual meetings and want to visit with you this month about some of
my findings.
First of all, I learned
that the surveys of members conducted by electric cooperatives are
accurate. Time and again those surveys have told us you believe your
electric cooperative offers reliable service at affordable rates, and
those findings were echoed to me personally by the annual meeting crowds.
of you that I met at the annual meetings this summer told me you
feel connected to your cooperative and that's why you come to
the annual meeting. You were not there for the lunch or the door prizes.
Rather, you take seriously your role as owners of a cooperative business.
I had the benefit of seeing cooperative democracy in action at those
meetings. I saw members running for election to the board and actually
campaigning to represent their fellow consumers on important decisions
affecting the co-op.
When I talked to
the incumbant directors I sensed the pride they feel for the opportunity
to represent their neighbors on the board. I also witnessed the standing
ovations given to employees of the cooperatives by a membership that
is grateful for their hard work in keeping rates low and service
ever reliable.
As I spoke at these
meetings I shared some of the lessons I have learned from the rural
electric cooperative pioneers I have had the opportunity to work with
in my 25 years with the program. They taught me there is a real difference
between the cooperative way of doing business and the business plan
of those utilities, like Enron, that made the news because of their
unscrupulous tactics and corporate greed.
Those utilities were
not accountable to the consumers who used their service. To me that's
the cooperative difference. When members of the cooperative who use
the cooperative's
service own and control the business, they are by nature going to
look out for the person at the end of the line.
I really believe
the reason we have an affordable and reliable power system in Missouri
is because of the way we are governed. I am thankful to live in a
state where electric consumers have the opportunity to control their
local electric cooperative.
Whether it's
the manager of the local electric cooperative, the receptionist at
the front desk, a lineman restoring power, an elected director or an
operator at one of our power plants, all of us know to whom we answer.
I was fortunate enough to spend some quality time with some of you
people, our member/owners.Thanks to all of you who took the time to
visit with me and share your feelings about your electric cooperative
this summer. It was a pleasure meeting you.
Hart is executive
vice president of the Association of Missouri Electric Cooperatives.

Chevrolet launches full-scale Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition
19 Nov, 2012, 10:00 GMT
ZURICH, November 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
First-ever drivable Hot Wheels production model
The dream of millions of Hot Wheels® fans of all ages will come to life when the Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition arrives at Chevrolet dealerships early next year. This is the first time a full-size production Hot Wheels® car has been offered for sale by any manufacturer.
Blister packaging and orange race track not included.
"Millions of us grew up playing with Hot Wheels," said Chris Perry, vice president of Chevrolet Marketing. "Offering a special production model of the Camaro Hot Wheels is an opportunity to bring those memories to life, for kids of all ages."
The Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition debuted at the Specialty Equipment Market Association (SEMA) Show in Las Vegas on Monday. A special run of the Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition will be produced in the first quarter of 2013 - and like the collectable toys on which it is based - when they're gone, they're gone.
"It's been nearly 20 years since I started designing cars for Hot Wheels and I have yet to drive one home," said Felix Holst, vice president of creative for the Mattel Wheels Division. "Personally, I can't wait to open the doors and see the Hot Wheels Camaro sitting in the garage."
The appearance of the Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition echoes the cues that Hot Wheels enthusiasts recognize, including a vibrant, graphics-accented metallic paint scheme. The result is instantly recognizable as a Hot Wheels.
The Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition is available in V8 coupe with manual or automatic transmission, blending exterior cues of the high-performance Camaro ZL1 with a Kinetic Blue exterior color and unique graphics. Exterior highlights include:
- ZL1 rear spoiler
- ZL1 front upper grille
- Ground effects package, including front splitter and rocker treatment
- Black 20-inch wheels
- Two-tone matte hood graphic and rear taillight panel "blackout" graphic
- Fender "flame" graphics
- Hot Wheels grille and decklid logos.
On the inside, a black leather-trimmed interior is accented with red and black seat stitching with the Hot Wheels logo embroidered on the front seats. The instrument panel and door inserts are black, with the Hot Wheels-style flame decal on each door. Hot Wheels® Edition sill plates also distinguish the car, along with Camaro-logo premium floor mats with red edging.
The Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition features a 6.2L V8 coupled with a manual transmission that churns out 432 horsepower (318 kW) and 569 Nm of torque, or an automatic which develops 405 hp (298 kW) and 556 Nm of torque. The latter features fuel-saving Active Fuel Management.
The Camaro Hot Wheels® Edition, which comes with a seven-inch touchscreen full color radio with Bluetooth hands free and audio streaming, will be available to order in Europe as of November 8, 2012. The package price for Europe will be announced shortly.
FAST FACT: The original Custom Camaro 1:64-scale toy from 1968 was one of the original16 Hot Wheels issued and remains one of the most valuable Hot Wheels toys among collectors.

By Emma Lacey-Bordeaux, CNN
(CNN) - Ahmed Ferwana has a cookout coming up, one that's been years in the making. The English teacher, and CNN iReporter, in Gaza City is excited because his friends will be cooking a fish they haven't been able to buy in years.
[1:12] "When you eat it you feel like it's really rich."
Ferwana says the taste of this fish when cooked on the grill with spices is indescribable. He added that this fish, its name is translated as locus, is also a favorite because it has fewer bones than others.
Ferwana has missed this fish because of restrictions imposed on Gaza's coastline. Citing security concerns, weapons smuggling and the desire to prevent attacks, Israel restricted Gaza's fishing to only three nautical miles from shore. That's meant a small supply of fish and high prices for years.
That all changed last week. Ferwana explains the scene:
[:34] "Everybody started cheering out because that means a lot of fish and rare fish to be coming to the markets."
This was one result of the fragile ceasefire which ended eight days of fighting between Israel and Hamas. The fighting claimed the lives of more than 160 Palestinians and six Israelis.
Although he's excited, Ferwana strikes a cautious tone about the ceasefire. He's not yet convinced the violence will stop. Also, there's a greater frustration for him. He's happy he'll have better access to quality seafood but he's bothered by politics and international diplomacy intruding into such a mundane part of life:
[3:25] "We civilians we would love to have a solution. We would love to just live a life and that's why I myself believe in coexistence with Israel."

Martha Stewart, a Bedford resident, is missing out on the region's first major snowstorm of the year.
Stewart is stranded in Florida according to her Instagram. Despite avoiding the snowstorm, it doesn't sound like she's too happy about it.
"It is really inclement here," the lifestyle mogul said. "I am worried about the farm crops and citrus crops! But I know it is even worse up north where people cannot even get to work and pipes are freezing and trees breaking."
Stewart, a former Westport, Conn., resident, found solace by visiting a spa.
"A great place to visit when travel plans are disrupted," Stewart said.

Dear Abby
DEAR ABBY: I spent the afternoon running errands. As I left the shopping center, I saw a young couple with a baby and a toddler holding a sign requesting help with food, as the husband had just been laid off. I drove past, then considered the children and circled back.
I had no cash with me, so I stopped and offered them our family's dinner -- a jar of premium spaghetti sauce, a pound of fresh ground beef, a box of dried spaghetti, fruit cups that my children usually take to school for treats, and some canned soups I occasionally have for lunch.
Imagine my surprise when the couple declined my generosity. Instead, the man strongly suggested that I should go to a nearby ATM and withdraw cash to donate to them because they preferred to select their own groceries and pay their phone bills. What are your thoughts on this? -- GENUINELY PUZZLED IN AUSTIN, TEXAS
DEAR PUZZLED: What happened is a shame. Some families are truly in need and should be guided to a shelter so they can receive help getting back on their feet. However, in some cities you see the same people on the same streets for long periods of time. They have staked out their "turf," and because the money they are given is tax-free, some of them are doing quite well. In your case, the couple you saw holding the sign may have been professional panhandlers, and the children may have been "borrowed."
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have been separated for a year and I have filed for divorce. We have reached an agreement about everything except one thing: our tortoise. This may seem strange, but Herbert has always been our "child." I think of him as my kid, and I believe my husband when he says he loves him that much, too. We got Herbert as a baby that fit into the palm of my hand. Herbert is now 9, very large and lives in the backyard in a "doghouse" structure. The problem is, my husband still wants to see Herbert. He agrees that he will visit only when I am not at home. I don't distrust him or worry he will try to take Herbert, but I just don't want him here.
I know that if Herbert is mine legally, I won't have to let anyone see him. Once our divorce is final, I want nothing more to do with my husband and he knows that. But it's like telling someone he could never see his kid again. I'd really like to know your thoughts. -- NICOLE IN SANFORD, FLA.
DEAR NICOLE: Because you can't split Herbert in half, why not consider shared custody? If your husband can provide a safe place for the tortoise to stay while he's with "Daddy," you could work out an agreement so that you could exchange your "kid" at a neutral place -- such as your veterinarian's office -- and you wouldn't have to see your husband and vice versa.
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I will celebrate our 50th wedding anniversary next summer, and we're planning to renew our vows. I'm trying to decide if I should wear my original wedding gown. (I wore it on our 25th anniversary.)
Would it be in good taste to wear the same dress, or should I go with something else? We'll be inviting some of the same people who attended the 25th anniversary party. -- MARY IN ALBUQUERQUE
DEAR MARY: Congratulations on your long and happy marriage. If you can still fit into your original wedding dress, by all means wear it. I consider it an accomplishment. You'll be the envy of most of the women at your celebration, and probably some of the men.

Ask a Physicist Answers
In the proton-proton chain reactions which happen, for instance, in our Sun, two protons collide and form a proton and a neutron. However, this just blows my mind.
What is the mechanism by which a proton simply loses its charge, becomes slightly more massive, and turns into a neutron?
Hi, Steven - you've stumbled across what physicists know as the "weak interaction."
The weak interaction is the fundamental force which is involved in radioactive decay and nuclear reactions like the pp chain. The first step in the pp chain (which is actually two steps) can be written as:
p + p -> p + n + e+ + νe
where the protons (p) react to form a deuteron (p+n) while emitting a positron (otherwise known as an anti-electron: e+) and an electron neutrino (νe), as well as releasing about 400 keV of energy. The weak interaction dictates the change from proton to neutron + positron + neutrino. There are conservation laws that these reactions must follow: the total charge must be conserved, the total lepton number must be conserved, and the lepton family must be conserved, as well as the conservation of energy and momentum that applies everywhere else (there are more specific rules but we won't get into them here). So look again at the portion of the reaction that's changing one proton into a neutron:
p -> n + e+ + νe
A solar flare erupts on the sun.
Image Credit: SDO/AIA
We can see that the proton on the left hand side of the reaction has a charge balanced by the positron on the right hand side. We can also see that the lepton number is conserved: electrons and neutrinos are "leptons", while protons and neutrons are "baryons" (these names refer to the type of matter - leptons are fundamental, while baryons are made of three quarks each).
So there is one baryon on the left and one on the right: balanced. And there are zero leptons on the left and an anti-electron (-1 lepton) and neutrino (+1 lepton) on the right: zero and zero, balanced (the trick here is to know that having an anti-particle is like subtracting). And our lepton family is also conserved: because we have an anti-electron (positron), we must have an electron neutrino.
A tau or anti-tau particle would have a tau neutrino, and a muon or anti-muon would have a muon neutrino.
As for the change in mass, there's one extra thing we're missing, and that's Einstein's famous E=mc2. When two protons combine into a deuteron (p+n) like in the pp chain, the energetics are favorable. It's like putting two buckets together and ending up with a bucket that's more than twice as deep as the originals. It means that a deuteron is actually less massive than two protons. Because of this, the reaction releases energy (400 keV worth!).
It's worth noting that, if you have just the proton "decay" by itself (p -> n + e+ + νe), without the extra proton as in the pp chain, the energetics are not favorable. A neutron does have more mass than a proton. And that's why protons don't decay in free space (currently, the lifetime of the proton is speculated to be about 1032 years... way longer than the age of the universe!).

Styling specialists Wald are showing upgrades for both the Nissan GT-R and the Lexus IS-F at this years Tokyo Auto Salon, the ramen-flavored version of SEMA.
Wald only really does exterior modifications, so don't expect go-faster parts on either of these cars, but the parts they did bring are pretty slick. The GT-R gets a restyled grille in flat-finished carbon fiber, a much more aggressive bumper cover, a CF bumper vent, carbon fiber side skirts and huge carbon fiber fender flares. and a carbon fiber insert in the rear spoiler, topped off with two-piece Wald wheels and rubber band tires.
The Lexus IS-F is gets a carbon fiber schnoz and side skirts, it wears an all carbon fiber spoiler and rear splitter. It does not on the other hand wear a crooked promotional license plate at the rear.[via Nihon Car]

Achievement Gap
The persistent difference in academic performance between different ethnic and racial groups, income levels, gender, and special student groups.
The display allows you to see the comparison of test results between demographic groups. The default screen shows SAT results and a summary of all grades with low income/non-low income comparison. Click on PARCC if you wish to see PARCC results in schools that enroll middle school students. You can select a specific grade by clicking on the down arrow and then on the grade you want to view. You can select a subject by clicking on English Language Arts (ELA) or Math. You can also choose demographic groups for comparison by clicking on the box of your choice among the Compare options. You may need to scroll down to see all of the displays. If a selected group has fewer than 10 students, no comparison data will be shown. /p>
Scroll over any of the bars on the graph to see the exact performance percentages. An N/A means that no comparison data is available for that specific subgroup.
The SAT assessment measures student achievement relative to the Illinois Learning Standards. An achievement gap on a test like the SAT is evident when one group of students outperforms another group, and the average scores indicate a significant difference between the groups that persists over time. If a subgroup has fewer than 10 students, no comparison data will be shown. This is done to protect student privacy.
Schools and districts that are narrowing achievement gaps share four key characteristics.
Focus – clear and consistent goals, strategies, and leadership
Rigorous curriculum – clearly defined, high expectations for student learning
High quality teaching
Necessary and frequent interventions to improve students' learning

Evidence is lacking to support guidelines that recommend high intake of polyunsaturated fatty acids and low consumption of saturated fats, a recent meta-analysis found.
Data from 27 randomized controlled trials looking at fatty acid supplementation showed no clear statistical relationship with coronary disease for beta-linolenic acid (relative risk [RR] 0.97, 95% CI 0.69-1.36), long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated acid (RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.86-1.03), or omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (RR 0.89, 95% CI 0.71-1.12), Rajiv Chowdhury, MD, PhD, of the University of Cambridge, and his co-authors wrote March 17 in the Annals of Internal Medicine.
Nor was there any clear relationship with coronary disease when looking at 32 observational studies for saturated fatty acids (RR 1.01, 95% CI 0.97-1.07), monounsaturated (RR 0.99, 95% CI 0.89-1.09), long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated (RR 0.93, 95% CI 0.84-1.02), omega-6 polyunsaturated (RR 1.01, 95% CI 0.96-1.07), or trans-fatty acids (RR 1.16, 95% CI 1.06-1.27) when comparing top and the bottom third of baseline dietary fatty acid intake.
And there were no clear associations when looking at data from 17 studies of circulating fatty acids measured via biomarkers, with relative risks for coronary disease of:
- 1.06 (95% CI 0.86-1.30) for saturated fats
- 1.06 (95% CI 0.97-1.17) for monounsaturated fats
- 0.84 (95% CI 0.63-1.11) for long-chain omega-3 polyunsaturated fats
- 0.94 (95% CI 0.84-1.06) for omega-6 polyunsaturated
- 1.05 (95% CI 0.76-1.44) for trans fatty acids
"The pattern of this analysis did not yield clearly supportive evidence for current cardiovascular guidelines that encourage high consumption of polyunsaturated fatty acids and low consumption of saturated fats," concluded Chowdhury and his co-authors. What's more, they said, "Nutritional guidelines on fatty acids and cardiovascular guidelines may require reappraisal to reflect the current evidence."
The meta-analysis included more than 600,000 participants from 18 countries. All of the studies were published before July 1, 2013. The majority were culled from electronic searches of Medline, Science Citation Index, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. The researchers also looked for relevant studies in the reference lists of identified articles, and for author correspondence related to the studies.
The review "provides a comprehensive systematic synthesis of available evidence," the authors said.
Nutritional guidelines have encouraged low intake of saturated fats, high consumption of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids from fish and plant sources, and avoidance of trans fats, especially partially hydrogenated fat, as a way to improve cardiovascular health, the authors wrote.
But there has been considerable variation, they said, in the international guidelines about the amount and types of fatty acids. "This variation reflects, in part, uncertainties in the available evidence," they authors said.
Interpretation of prospective observational studies has been complicated by potential misclassification in the self-report questionnaires, they said. Early analyses also did not assess the consistency between dietary self-report and biomarker measures of fatty acids in coronary disease, they noted.
Additionally, interpretation of randomized trials of fatty acid supplements has been complicated by the difference in dietary habits of trial populations, the absence, presence, and type of vascular disease in study populations at the beginning of trials, trial duration, composition of supplement regimens, and differences in the efficacy of coronary prevention, the authors said.
Earlier this year, James DiNicolantonio, PharmD, a cardiovascular research scientist at Saint Luke's Mid America Heart Institute in Kansas City, Mo., wrote an editorial in BMJ's Open Heart journal questioning the evidence for guidelines, calling the benefits of a low-fat diet -- especially a diet that replaces saturated fats with carbohydrates or omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids -- "severely challenged."
Previous meta-analyses "inappropriately combined trials that were mixed omega-3 and omega-6 and stated that they were omega-6 trials," he said, in an email to MedPage Today. "When looking at the trials that solely replaced saturated fat with omega-6, there was an increase in CHD [coronary heart disease] and CV [cardiovascular] death."
Past meta-analyses also inappropriately excluded the Sydney Diet Heart Study and another study investigating the consumption of corn oil patients with a history of heart disease, both of which showed harm when omega-6 replaced saturated fat, said DiNicolantonio, who believes the high-carb, low-fat diet many followed as a result of the current guidelines has contributed to the obesity epidemic and the rise in diabetes and metabolic syndrome.
Studies like this one should lead to the public eating "real" food, "even if these foods contain high amounts of saturated fat, instead of ingesting industrialized seed oils, particularly corn and safflower oil," says DiNicolantonio.
The authors of this meta-analysis acknowledged limitations to their study. These included a "moderate" amount of available data on some circulating fatty acids and "possible overestimation of associations because of preferential publications of extreme findings or selective reporting of results for particular fatty acids with striking associations," the authors said.
Selective reporting appeared minimal in the randomized trials, they said. But they noted that few observational studies reported on all measured circulating fatty acids. "Therefore it is possible that selective under-reporting may have contributed at least in part to the observational findings in this meta-analysis."
This study was supported by the British Heart Foundation, Medical Research Council, Cambridge National Institute for Health Research Biomedical Research Centre, and Gates Cambridge.
Co-authors disclosed relevant relationships with a number of companies and institutions, including Nestle, Metagenics, Pfizer, Merck Sharp & Dohme, Novartis, Roche Pharmaceuticals, the Medical Research Council, the British Heart Foundation, Cancer Research UK, Quaker Oats, AstraZeneca, UpToDate, GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute, the National Institute of Neurological Disorders, the Wellcome Trust, and Elsevier (France).

Wyoming's Three Electoral Votes Likely to Stay Reliably Red
-- Wyoming's solid Republican tendencies face no real Democratic threat come the November general election.
During the March caucuses in Wyoming, Sen. Barack Obama and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney emerged victorious for their respective parties, but the Romney win doesn't mean Sen. John McCain will have any problems capturing the western state's three electoral votes.
The home turf of sitting Vice President Dick Cheney, Wyoming is reliably red and has voted for the Republican presidential candidate in the last ten presidential elections.

Germany was a country on Earth's European continent. A major player in the planet's history, Germany was home to numerous influential Humans. Germany's flag featured the colors black, red and gold. (TNG: "The Last Outpost", ENT: "First Flight")
- Berlin – capital of Germany. In 2155, it hosted a Vulcan consulate. (DS9: "Change of Heart"; ENT: "Storm Front", "Storm Front, Part II", "Terra Prime") Several colonies or ships were named after the city: the New Berlin Colony, the city New Berlin on Luna, the USS Berlin (NCC-14232)
- Hamlin – city in Germany, known for its role in the folk tale "The Pied Piper of Hamelin". (DS9: "Playing God")
- Rivers: Danube
Famous Germans included physicist Albert Einstein, who formulated the Theory of General Relativity, philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, composer Johannes Brahms and printer Johannes Gutenberg. (ENT: "Borderland"; TOS: "Requiem for Methuselah"; TNG: "Descent")
In the mid-20th century, the country was ruled by the fascist Nazi party led by Adolf Hitler, under the name Nazi Germany. His quote "We need breathing room" exemplifies the Nazi regime's stance which ultimately led to its participation in the Second World War. In 1945, the war ended with Germany's defeat and the United States of America emerging as one of the victors. The following establishment of the US as a dominant power would lead to developments resonating on into the 24th century.

In an alternate reality created by agents of the Temporal Cold War, namely Vosk, Germany was able to launch a successful invasion of England and the eastern coast of the United States of America. These changes were eradicated when Vosk's plan to return home was foiled by Captain Jonathan Archer and the crew of the Enterprise, who were sent back in time as well. (ENT: "Storm Front")
In 2032, Germany took part in the Ares IV mission. (VOY: "One Small Step")
In 2143, the Ariane 1 assignment patch, which was on display in the 602 Club, bore the flag of ESA member Germany. (ENT: "First Flight")
By 2155, Berlin was the site of a Vulcan consulate. (ENT: "Terra Prime")

Japan has many excellent knitters and designers & textile companies and we aim to provide a platform to present their work to an English speaking audience.
The 'fushiginoiroito' team returned to the 2005 Knitting & Stitching Show, with 'Beyond the Comfort Zone'. They exhibited at Alexandra Palace, London (13th-16th October 2005), and Harrogate (24th-27th November). Some of the exhibitors werel be present on both occasions.
We are still featuring the original 'fushiginoiroito' exhibition, which was part of 'The 2001 Knitting & Stitching Show' at The International Halls, Harrogate, and at Alexandra Palace, London.
We are beginning to feature the work of other Japanese knitters, designers and textile artists in our 'Editor's Choice' section. Japanese knitters are often very well-informed about knitting trends outside Japan, but it is rare that we get a chance to see their work. You can also find other selected information about knitting and textiles in Japan in the 'Editor's Choice' section, and as time goes by we will be adding more and more to this - so if this is an area of interest for you, keep coming back.
If you are a knitter (you don't have to be Japanese!) and you've got an exhibition coming up sometime, why not register with knitjapan and add your show to our listings sections? You also find yourself listed in the 'artists' section as a result.

Back in 2011, Gmail had a labs experiment called "Mouse Gestures" that let you navigate your inbox using the right click of your mouse. Dragging to the right/left would open the next/previous email and dragging the mouse up would open up the inbox. The experimental feature was one of my favorites so when it was discontinued in May 2012, I was a little saddened to the say the least.
A Change.org petition was launched soon after calling for its reinstatement, but who are we kidding, it's Google after all. They shut down Google Reader in spite of its loyal following – what chance does a little lab experiment stand?
So I was quite elated when I came across a Google Chrome extension that accomplishes the same task, unofficially. Simply named Gmail Mouse Gestures, the extension does the job just as advertised. There are a few limitations to its functioning however. It hasn't yet been updated to work with the latest tabbed-and-segregated Gmail interface so if you're browsing emails in the Promotions tab and drag up to go to the list of emails, the extension takes you to the list of emails in the Primary tab. Left and right browsing works alright in all the tabs, thankfully.

The American Heart Association recommends eating fish rich in omega-3 fatty acids at least twice a week. Fatty fish, such as salmon, herring and to a lesser extent tuna, contain the most omega-3 fatty acids. Eating one to two servings a week appears to reduce the risk of heart disease, particularly sudden cardiac death.

WORK STARTED ON TROJAN DIRECTORY Campus schools and colleges are being canvassed this week for lists of sororities, fraternities, and other organizations for the Trojan Directory of this year. Bud Fetterly, editor, has assigned two or more divisions of tho university to each aspiring division editor of the Directory, and they are compiling the necessary data. Each organization, social, professional, or otherwise, will be asked for Its name, address, phone number, and the name of the president and secretary. If the address or phone number has been changed recently, the editor of the Directory or one of his assistants should be notified. The staff of the Directory will be picked from those who compile the preliminary lists. Division heads will be responsible for all the work done under them, and will receive more points for their work than the others. There are still opportunities on the staff for those who can proofread, copyread, or type. There may be some openings to do paid typing. The second meeting of the staff will take place tomorrow, Friday, at 9:50 In room 225 of the Student Union. All students interested in this work should be present at that time. Year Book Photo Time Lengthened Pledges Given Until Oct. 8 to Have El Rodeo Pictures Taken. SOPHS CHALLENGE FRESHMEN Tickets For TO TRADITIONAL WARFARE In order that pledges of fraternities and sororities, whose members have had pictures taken for the 1931 El Rodeo this week, may be photographed, the time limit on these organizations has been lengthened until Wednesday, Oct. 8, Mort Morehouse, editor of the yearbook, announced todAy. These groups are Sigma Chi, Dc'ta Chi, Zetn Beta Tau, Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Alpha Chi Omega, Zeta Tau Alpha, Phi Mu, Kappa Alpha Theta, Phi Beta Delta, Phi Kappa. Tau, PI Beta PM, and Kappa Delta. Following is a list of organizations whose members must make appointments today and tomorrow for the week of Oct. 6: Delta Sigma Phi, Kappa Sigma, Delta, Delta, Delta, Alpha Epsilon Phl^ and Alpha Gamma Delta. "I have been greatly pleased at the way these organizations have co-operated in the matter of picture appointments," Morehouse said "Due to this fact, they will probably avoid a last minute rush, hope that the remaining groups will continue to realize the Importance of this work." Morehouse further stated that the Haskell studios In the basement of the Student Union where all picture appointments are made will now remain open from 8:30 until 4:30, including lunch hour. Members and aspirants to the annual staff who wlBh to do typing, should report at the olllce as soon as possible. It has come to the attention of the class of 1933 that tin* freshmen on this campus are becoming disrespectful to the upperclassmen. The mere thought of freshmen, pea-greeners, light-headed, low-down, no-accounts that they are, believing that they are of any use on this campus is most repulsive to the university. It was believed that freshman week would show the under-dogs their place on this campus; but as It apparently has not, the sophomores of Southern California rise to the occasion to put them in their place. So the class of 1933 hereby Issues a challenge to the wearers ♦of the green dinks, a challenge that when accepted will prove Just what the worthless class amounts to. We challenge the frosh to meet us on Bovard field at the earliest possible date to do battle to the end—the freshmen's end to be certain.
