Now that we have a place for such plays, Tata Motors (TTM) one of Indias largest auto makers. Been in for about 6 weeks, constantly setting new highs with strong uptrend building. Looks to be pulling back a bit, maybe a good entry for a swing play. IMHO, this is one of my long multi baggers, strong fundamentals. Maybe one of the chart gurus could take a look?
January 23, 2006
looking at it now--nice find. No guru, but I'll post what I think. It sure goes up on relatively little volume, that's pretty obvious.
January 23, 2006
higher highs and higher lows--in general--dating to Oct 04, but particularly since May 05, when it was trading in the mid 9s. It recently reached it's 52-week high of 14.90--which is also its highest ever. It slid to a new low in Oct 05, but quickly recovered nearly to its previous high, dipped, and has been climbing since.
various monthly charts show it has crossed below support for now, with resistance in the low 14.50s and --.60s, then again in the high --.70s.
Can it break $15 ($14.90, the previous high)? Barring news events, given historical volume, I'd look for the dip to further a bit then retrace and hit a new high (mid 15s?), before a drop to previous highs in 12-13 range, then start climbing again.
Today 287200

What you got for FA? I didn't do even a news search . . .
January 23, 2006
Here's a link to some archived releases
I'm trying to find the PR that lead me to them a couple of months ago, talked about the huge demand for vehicles in India and how Tata is poised to be the main beneficiary of such demand. I'll post it if I can get a hold of it.
I like your chart interp but in MHO I think the next quarterly report will help it break resistance and approach 16. If not, it sure could trickle back down into the 12-13 range befor heading back up.
January 24, 2006
It seems to run in cycles of 3 mo.s to make an up run, then a month to 6 weeks to start over, following a downturn. It "looks" to me like current resistance-support confirms that, there's much better chartists than I...
look forward to any FA, news etc that you dig up...
January 24, 2006
Set new 52 week high by a few cents today, bumping on 15, not able to break through, yet...

India FDI Moves A Long-Term Positive, Short-Term Neutral
24 Jan 05 15:39
By Shumita Sharma
Of DOW JONES NEWSWIRES
NEW YORK -(Dow Jones)- India's move to open its doors wider to foreign direct investors is expected to further stimulate a booming economy in the coming years, but gains in the country's already expensive financial markets may be limited in the near term.
On Tuesday, the Cabinet approved a proposal to allow foreign single-brand retailers, such as sportswear maker Reebok International Ltd. (RBK) and cellular phone maker Nokia Corp. (NOK), to directly invest up to 51% in India. So far, global retailers looking to tap into the fattening wallets of India's ballooning middle class could only open franchises or engage in wholesale trading.
Commerce and Industry Minister Kamal Nath also said caps on foreign direct investment for developing airports as well as for mining of diamonds and other precious stones will be abolished from a current limit of 74%.
"This is definitely a fairly strong statement to send, and it's very healthy from a long-term perspective," said Arindam Bhattacharjee, portfolio manager at Emerging Markets Management in Arlington, Virginia.
But Bhattacharjee, whose firm has $1 billion in Indian equities of its total investments of $17 billion, is "cautious" in the short-term, which typically spans 12 months. "Interest rates are picking up and the earnings momentum is slowing somewhat - it's not the most positive environment for equities," he said. "We are unlikely to see the kind of gains we have seen in the past."
Prior to Tuesday's Cabinet decision on FDI, the Bombay Stock Exchange's 30- stock benchmark Sensitive Index, or Sensex, rose 85 points, or 0.9% from Monday's finish, to close at 9549.92. That's a few points shy of the record high of 9,648 points that the Sensex hit just three weeks ago.
Indian shares trading in New York were on the upswing in Tuesday afternoon trade, with the Bank of New York's American Depositary Receipts index for the country gaining 1.8% to 805.49 points. Automobile maker Tata Motors Ltd. (TTM) gained 3.3% at $14.91 and India's largest private sector bank, ICICI Bank Ltd. ( IBN), rose 2.1% to $30.17.
India's equity market has been racing to multiple historic highs over the past year, along with bourses in several other developing countries across the world. Investors - foreign and domestic - have been drawn to the Indian equity market, attracted by the country's strong economic growth, spurred in large part by a consumption boom.
That's what makes Tuesday's Cabinet announcement on liberalizing the retail sector especially important. Although allowing FDI for single-brands is a small step in opening the retail market, it marks a significant move ahead in allowing greater foreign competition in the protected sector, which is dominated by mom- and-pop stores.
According to the global consulting firm McKinsey & Co., India's $250 billion retail business is the world's eighth-largest and will expand more than 7% a year for the next five years. In a recent report, Citigroup said modern, retail stores account for only about 2% of overall retail sales in India, compared with 85% in the U.S.
Multinational chains, such as U.S.-based Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (WMT), have been waiting to get a foothold in the country, but have faced political opposition amid fears that India's estimated 12 million mom-and-pop stores may go out of business. In a bid to get into the rapidly expanding retail sector before foreign companies do, one of India's largest conglomerates, Reliance Industries Ltd., this week said it will plow $750 million to build hypermarkets, supermarkets and smaller stores in the coming months.
But for now, market participants aren't forecasting a rush of foreign inflows - direct or portfolio - into India.
"We have to see the follow-through in terms of implementations and providing support for foreigners," said Charles Wang, senior portfolio manager at Acadian Asset Management in Boston, which has $7 billion in emerging market equity investments.
"We have to see whether this is only a one-time event, or whether India will open up other sectors, such as infrastructure, to get more capital," he added.
For now, Wang is underweight on India, saying that the country's rallying stock market is now expensively valued, with a price-to-earnings ratio of 20 compared with an average of 15 for emerging markets as a whole.
"The fundamentals in India are good, but investors care about valuations and want to see earnings growth. We are value investors, so we want to get in at reasonable prices," he said, adding that the other so-called BRIC countries - Brazil, Russia and China - are more attractive.
Gene Frieda, head of emerging markets research at Royal Bank of Scotland in London, also called the liberalization moves "quite positive" in increasing investment inflows, but said the impact will only be seen "over time."
In the meantime, the rupee is unlikely to push higher, he said, with the market focusing on the country's current account deficit, which has been widening largely due to increasing energy costs. That was underlined overnight when the rupee closed lower in local markets despite a surprise 25-basis-point hike Tuesday in the central bank's key interest rate to 5.50%. In illiquid afternoon New York trading, the dollar was at INR44.19 according to Reuters, little changed from its close in local markets at INR44.26.
The rupee has fallen against the dollar over the last six months, though a robust rally since December means those losses have been very modest. Capital flows into Indian equities have prevented a more pronounced weakness in the rupee, said Frieda. Foreigners invested a record of around $10.4 billion in Indian equities in 2005, up from $8.5 billion in 2004.
India is aiming to attract $6.5 billion in FDI during the current fiscal year, which ends March 31, 2006, compared with $5.3 billion a year ago. India's FDI inflow is only one-tenth of what China receives every year.

Cummins, Tata Motors to expand j.v. engine ops in India (CMI, TTM) By Carla Mozee
SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Cummins Inc. (CMI) said after Friday's closing bell that it and Tata Motors (TTM) have signed an agreement that will allow their Tata Cummins Ltd. joint venture in India to begin manufacturing ISB engines in the near future. The expansion will cost an estimated $60 million, which will be funded by the joint venture's cash flow and debt. Under the agreement, Tata Cummins will increase its total engine production to 100,000 units within two years and 120,000 units thereafter. It currently produces 69,000 Cummins B Series engines a year, said Cummins
Cummins took a large jump today, almost 7%
Don't have any more India plays but a couple other plays started jumping the last few days
BMHC: just upgraded with $100 target price, just like last year, this will make it back up to the high 90's IMHO, suffered from some profit taking at end of year but was an excellent opp. for buy.

Another gap up with HOD end, 2.55% - 16.51, looking for 17+ this week.
SIFY, another Indian ADR took off today, too bad it was only in my watch list and not the portfolio
February 13, 2006
Went flat towards end of week. Had great news but poorly timed on India's market close. Jumped great today with increased volume, thinking institutions are going to start smelling this one. Currently only about 3-4% inst. ownership.
Here's the news:
BOMBAY, India, Feb 09, 2006 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- India's largest automobile manufacturer, Tata Motors Ltd., said Thursday its net profit in the October-December quarter climbed 45.6 percent, helped largely by income from the sale of equity in one of its subsidiaries.
The company's net profit rose to 4.6 billion rupees ($102 million) in the quarter that ended Dec. 31, up from 3.1 billion rupees in the same period a year ago.
The profit included 1.64 billion rupees ($36 million) the company received from the sale of 20 percent equity in its subsidiary Telcon Ltd. to technology partner Hitachi Construction Machinery Company Ltd.
The company said quarterly sales increased 13 percent to 50.75 billion rupees ($1.13 billion).
The increase in sales was largely attributed to exports of cars and trucks, which increased 35 percent during the period.
"Our international business has done well," said Praveen Kadle, executive director of finance at Tata Motors. "The overall international sales in commercial vehicles and passenger cars has picked up and done quite well.
The results came on a day when the country's stock markets were closed because of the Muslim holiday Muharram.
The figures released Thursday conformed to Indian accounting standards.
The company, which is also listed on the New York Stock Exchange, also provides figures conforming to U.S. standards, which usually differ from the Indian figures. But it was not immediately clear when those figures would be announced.
Tata Motors, set up in 1954, mostly manufactured trucks and buses until 1998, when it entered the passenger car market with a hatchback - the Indica, which now accounts for a fifth of total small car sales in the country.

Croatia Travel Information
The Basics
GMT +1 (GMT +2 between April and October).
Electrical current is 230 volts, 50Hz. European-style, round, two-pin plugs are standard.
The official language is Croatian.
Travel Health
No vaccinations are required, but it is recommended that all travellers ensure that their hepatitis A and hepatitis B vaccinations are up-to-date.
The medical facilities and care in Croatia is fairly good, with free emergency medical care available to EU citizens with a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC), though some medicines are in short supply in public facilities. Non-EU nationals are advised to invest in comprehensive health insurance and those who need particular medications should take the supply needed for the duration of their stay with them, with a doctor's letter on hand to get them through customs.
In tourist or upmarket restaurants a tip of 10 percent will be appreciated, but otherwise it is usual to just round up the bill if the service has been good, unless a service charge has already been added. Tour guides expect to be tipped. Most other services receive a small tip by rounding up the bill.
Safety Information
Most visits to Croatia are trouble-free, and there is no particular threat of terrorism. Crime levels are low and violent crime is rare; however, petty theft can be a problem in busy tourist areas, so it is worth keeping a careful eye on possessions. Outside the normal tourist routes travellers should be aware that unexploded mines might remain in rural areas, particularly in Eastern Slavonia and the former Krajina. Tourists are urged to be cautious in former conflict areas, including Eastern Slavonia, Brodsko-Posavska County, Karlovac County, areas around Zadar, and in more remote areas of the Plitvice Lakes National Park, and stay on known safe roads and areas. If in any doubt check with authorities before setting out into remote areas.
Local Customs
Passports, or some form of identification, should be carried at all times. In some towns and cities it is prohibited, or considered rude, to walk around town centres shirtless or in swimming costumes - sometimes, such as in Dubrovnik, there is signage indicating that the practice is prohibited by law and offenders will be fined, but even when no such signage exists travellers should pay attention to local conventions.
Business in Croatia is conducted in a formal manner: punctuality is key, dress should be smart and conservative (suits and ties are the norm for men) and polite greetings are made with a handshake. Titles and surnames are usually used unless otherwise indicated and business cards are usually exchanged at the beginning of a meeting. English and German are widely spoken, but any attempt at speaking some Croatian will be appreciated. Women frequently hold high positions in business and are well respected. Building a good working relationship is important in Croatia and it is useful to work with a reliable local partner. Although Croatia appears typically European in its dealings, business can take some time to conclude. Business hours are usually 8am to 4pm, Monday to Friday.
The international access code for Croatia is +385. The outgoing code is 00 followed by the relevant country code (e.g. 0044 for the United Kingdom). The city code for Zagreb is (0)1 and for Dubrovnik (0)20. Public phones take phone cards, which can be bought in post offices and hotels. GSM operators have active roaming agreements with most international networks, and cover most of the country. Internet cafés are available in the larger towns and cities.
Duty Free
Non-EU travellers to Croatia can enter the country with the following items without incurring customs duty: 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250g of tobacco; 4 litres of wine, 1 litre of spirits, and up to 16 litres of beer; and other goods up to the value of HRK 3,200 if arriving by air, or HRK 2,200 if arriving by other means of transport. Regulations apply to firearms and radio instruments. No item of archaeological, historical, ethnographic, artistic, cultural or scientific value may leave the country without a license issued by the appropriate authorities.

"Obamacare will be a nightmare for Florida seniors," a grim voiceover announces. "Did Bill Nelson consider the consequences when he cast a deciding vote for Obamacare?"
"Tell Jon Tester: the Washington way isn't the solution," another intones. "We need less government and lower taxes."
"Sherrod," a third asks, referring to Ohio Senator Sherrod Brown, "what planet are you on?"
If you live in a state where a competitive race could help tip the balance in the Senate this fall, you've almost certainly seen ads like these, laden with menacing theme music, light on the facts and funded by the US Chamber of Commerce. The nation's largest business lobby is showcasing bold ambitions this year in an effort to build on gains made in the 2010 midterms, when at least $33 million of Chamber advertising helped push the nation dramatically rightward. The group began placing ads in swing districts as early as November 2011. Since then, it has rolled out a campaign aimed at influencing at least fifty House and eight Senate races, and according to Politico it has set a goal of $100 million in spending for this electoral cycle.
Watchdog groups believe the strategy in 2012 is similar to that of 2010: the Chamber goes into a district, blitzes it with attack ads to soften up the opposition and then steps back to let other deep-pocket groups come in. The intent is to force Democrats to play defense across the board, thus spreading their resources thin. According to the liberal online publication ThinkProgress, twenty of the twenty-one ads the Chamber released in May were hostile to Democratic candidates.
"The Chamber has spent about $600,000 attacking me," Tester, the farmer turned Democratic Montana senator, told me in April. "I've got a great small-business record. I've carried bills the US Chamber has advocated for in the past. [But] they see Montana as a state that they can pick up. They're dishonest, painting me as something I'm not. They're trying to paint me as Wall Street, as somebody who's 'gone DC.' It's about as crazy as anybody can get."
The organization is maintaining its longstanding policy of not officially taking sides in presidential elections. But even though it has not directly funded anti-Obama or pro-Romney ads, that doesn't mean its leaders wouldn't dearly love to oust Obama. Robert Weissman, president of the consumer advocacy group Public Citizen, says the Chamber hopes to influence the presidential election indirectly—by shaping the contours of the public debate in the months leading up to election day and by bringing conservative voters to the polls.
It is also reportedly coordinating with the top conservative Super PACs to craft a unified message and spending strategy. US Chamber Watch has documented a series of meetings between the Chamber's counsel and GOP strategists dating back to 2009, when they conceived the notion of creating American Crossroads, the Super PAC headed by Karl Rove. Since then, the watchdog group believes, the Chamber has been holding regular meetings with Crossroads, which claims that it will be able to bring $300 million to the 2012 election fight, and with Koch brothers–backed organizations (including Americans for Prosperity), which have bandied about the figure of $400 million as their target. Further evidence of cross-pollination: Chamber strategist Scott Reed previously worked for the GOP, and former Chamber counsel Steven Law is president of Crossroads GPS, the Rove-affiliated 501(c)(4) "social welfare organization."

|Angels | More on Hudler's Return to Booth
Sat, 22 Nov 2003 07:10:59 -0800
Updating a previous item, the AP reports Anaheim Angels television analyst Rex Hudler will remain in his position despite being arrested in August on suspicion of marijuana possession and drug paraphernalia, and subsequently being suspended by the team for the remainder of the season for violating club policy. "Rex has been an important part of the Angels in recent years, both behind the microphone and in the community," said Angels president Dennis Kuhl on Friday, Nov. 21. "While his situation earlier this year was unfortunate, there has been no lack of regret or accountability on his part. It's time for Rex and the Angels' family to move forward." Hudler also released the following statement: "Life is a series of situations and the choices we make. This experience has affected me in countless ways across the spectrum. At the same time, it has allowed me to fully understand the areas of growth and change that were needed in my life. I thank my family, the Angels' organization and our tremendous fans for their support. I look forward to returning in 2004 to cover the game and ballclub I so dearly cherish."

There are no Upcoming Shows listed for this comedian.
Phil Mazo
With the release of Phil's debut comedy album, Pervert, chicks are taking notice. iTunes featured the album, which cracked the Top 40 in their Comedy Chart.
Punchline Magazine wrote, "Phil Mazo brings a light-hearted, almost highbrow tone to cringe comedy," and also featured Phil in its A Tight Five video interview series. Meanwhile, The Serious Comedy Site is "seriously betting Mazo will get 'discovered' by some major studio, get his own sitcom or a couple of blockbuster movies."
Indeed, his roles in the film High Hopes helped earn it acceptances to both the Cannes Film Festival Short Corner and HBO's New York International Latino Film Festival. In the film, Phil plays two separate characters. He also stars in a national commercial for CarMax.

Foundation Gives $650 for Psychiatric Research: The Broad Institute, a biomedical research center, announced last week a $650 million donation for psychiatric research from the Stanley Family Foundation—one of the largest private gifts ever for scientific research. The commitment will support research within the Stanley Center for Psychiatric Research at the Broad Institute and aims to galvanize scientific research on psychiatric disorders and bring new treatments based on molecular understanding to hundreds of millions of people around the world. Steven E. Hyman, director of the Stanley Center, said that in the short-term the gift will provide a boost for additional genetic sequencing for schizophrenia, autism, bipolar disorder, and other mental conditions. The gift will also allow the center to embark on the kind of long-term research needed to illuminate the numerous and complex factors at work in mental illnesses. (PsychCentral.com, 7/25/14)
Researchers Find 108 Genetic Clusters Associated with Schizophrenia: A large study that examined the genetics of schizophrenia found 108 genetic clusters associated with the disease, offering the best evidence to date about which genes play a significant role in the condition. The research, funded by multiple governments and nonprofit foundations, involved hundreds of scientists and included pooling genetic data from nearly 37,000 people with schizophrenia. The researchers looked for short sequences of DNA that were more common in people with schizophrenia compared with those without the condition. The study, published online in Nature, confirms that genes connected to regulating the brain chemical dopamine are involved in schizophrenia, as predicted. But so are genes involved in the immune system, and several associated with heavy smoking. (USA Today, 7/21/14)
Survey of Iraq, Afghanistan War Vets Shows Nearly Half of Vets Know a Veteran who Has Attempted Suicide: A survey of Iraq and Afghanistan veterans reveals that nearly half know at least one veteran from those conflicts who has tried to take their own life. The survey, released last week, was conducted earlier this year by the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA). IAVA received responses to an extensive list of questions from more than 2,000 of the nation's younger veterans, the vast majority of whom served in the Army or Marine Corps. Respondents ranked suicide and mental health as the biggest issue facing post-9/11 veterans. The survey also found that: 31 percent of respondents have thought about taking their own lives since joining the military and 40 percent know at least one Iraq or Afghanistan veteran that took their own life. In addition, 53 percent have a mental health problem; among those respondents, 27 percent are not seeking care. The survey doesn't necessarily reflect the results that would be gleaned from questioning all Iraq and Afghanistan combat veterans, given the methodology. (Stars and Stripes, 7/24/14)
The New York Times looks at "Photography as a Balm for Mental Illness."
The Los Angeles Times interviews Tom Burns, a leading research who once advocated for laws that compel treatment and now says they don't change outcomes.
Vox reports on new research that those states with prior authorization requirements in Medicaid have significantly higher rates of severe mental illness in their prison populations.
U.S. Servicemen More Likely Exposed to Childhood Trauma: U.S. servicemen are more likely to have been exposed to some form of childhood trauma than their civilian counterparts, according to a new survey. For the study, researchers analyzed telephone interviews conducted throughout 2010 among nearly 61,000 men and women by the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System. One-quarter of the men and two percent of the women had a military background. All were asked to recount negative childhood events experienced before the age of 18. By all measures, men who had voluntarily served in the military after 1973 were more likely to have lived through a negative childhood experience, the researchers report in JAMA Psychiatry. In contrast, almost no differences were seen when comparing non-military men with men whose military career unfolded pre-1973, when the draft mandated military service. The exception: drug use in their childhood home was actually significantly less common among pre-1973 military men relative to their non-military peers. Among women, differences were not so apparent, regardless of whether they served before or after 1973. The exception: volunteer servicewomen were more likely to say they had been touched sexually as a child. (HealthDay News, 7/24/14)

Public Utilities Commission report suggests PSNH dump power plantsBy DAVE SOLOMON
New Hampshire Union Leader
June 10. 2013 8:56PM
CONCORD — The power plants owned by Public Service of New Hampshire aren't worth nearly as much as the company thinks, according to staff investigators at the Public Utilities Commission, who suggest the regulated utility should get out of the power-generating business and focus exclusively on energy delivery.
"We recommend that PSNH be asked to bring forth immediately proposals that would address a transfer of energy supply assets to an affiliate in accord with the optimistic views that the company has expressed with regard to the value of those assets," the staff wrote in a 55-page report likely to change the face of competitive electricity sales in the state.
The report, issued late Friday afternoon, is the result of a five-month study into the current state of deregulation, triggered by the steady migration of PSNH energy supply customers to competitors. It claims the status quo, in which PSNH serves as the default provider of electricity, is unsustainable.
Since late last year, nearly 100,000 of the company's 400,000 customers have switched to competitors for energy supply, leaving a shrinking customer base to pay higher rates in support of PSNH operating costs, which include aging coal-fired plants.
"The situation looks to worsen, as continuing migration from PSNH's default service by customers causes an upward rate trend," the report states. "We find no supportable basis for optimism that future market conditions will reverse this unsustainable trend, especially in the near term. To the contrary, the PSNH fossil units face uncertainties that combine to create a risk of further, potentially substantial increases in costs."
The report describes the situation as urgent and demanding immediate attention from the PUC, the state Legislature and the governor, warning that, "taking no action threatens to leave a dwindling yet still substantial number of the state's residents and small businesses facing ever higher costs for service relative to market alternatives and could eventually threaten the financial health of PSNH."
The staff urges the commission to open hearings to determine whether PSNH should unload the power plants and how they should be unloaded. The hearings would also determine how PSNH would be compensated for losses incurred in such a transaction, also known as "stranded costs."
Little market value
The company invested more than $400 million in pollution-control systems that went online in 2011 at the PSNH coal-fired plant in Bow, and would likely be facing substantial losses if it had to sell the plant. In addition to the 440-megawatt Bow plant, called Merrimack Station, the other power plants at issue are Schiller Station in Portsmouth, 150 megawatts with two coal boilers and one wood boiler; and Newington Station, 400 megawatts, which was built to burn oil and retrofitted in the early 1990s to burn a combination of oil and natural gas.
In addition, the company owns nine hydro plants scattered around the state generating about 68 megawatts.
PSNH believes it can still demonstrate their economic value. "We will respond to this report in the manner directed by our regulators, and look forward to demonstrating the significant benefits PSNH's generation fleet provides to customers," said PSNH spokesman Martin Murray in a statement issued after the report was released.
The PUC staff is not likely to be swayed.
"We do not share the view of PSNH, nor has the company in response to our requests provided any analysis confirming its view of fossil fleet value," they wrote. "Our analysis shows that the fossil units have very little market value."
Susan Chamberlin, consumer advocate at the PUC, agrees with the report's conclusion that something has to change.
"Right now, residential ratepayers are paying the majority of the cost for PSNH power plants, and the plants just are not economical," she said. "There are too many other lower-cost options in the market."
When lawmakers initially approved deregulation of energy sales in New Hampshire, they anticipated that PSNH would get out of power generating and focus exclusively on delivering electricity. The company sold its interest in the Seabrook Station nuclear power plant, but the law was later revised to allow PSNH to retain its remaining power plants, in the wake of the California electricity crisis.
Options to consider
If PSNH is going to be forced to sell the power plants, the Legislature will likely have to become involved, Chamberlin said.
"The commissioners are trying to bring all the parties together," she said. "If they issued something on their own, and the Legislature didn't like it, the Legislature would just overturn it."
There are many options for divestiture and for recovering stranded costs, which according to the report will require consideration by regulators, and legislative and executive leadership.
After that, the whole matter could end up in the courts anyway.
According to the report, everyone involved needs to proceed with a sense of urgency: "There is not a great deal of time for the state to act to address what will become an increasingly onerous burden for what now comprises a majority of the state's residents and many of its smaller businesses."
The Liberty Consulting Group of Lebanon, Pa., assisted in developing the report. The company specializes in advising utility managers, executives and regulators.

Why Has My Herpes Made A Recurrence?
I am presently a 21 year old lady, and during the summer of 2009 I had an outbreak of genital herpes. It was both painful and unexpected, but i did treat it properly. During the spring of 2010 I had an unplanned pregnancy, followed by a medical abortion. I have not (to my knowledge...they can be internal, right?) had another herpes outbreak since the first one. My mother also has herpes, and takes valtrex because it became so bothersome.
So I suppose my questions are:
1. Is it possible that the virus is somehow in an inactive state? I know it can`t be `cured,` but i have had such a stressful year, and both stress and pregnancy can be triggers.
2. I have been with my boyfriend for almost a year now (in some cases abortion causes break-up, but in ours [luckily] we ended up getting together), and he does not know that i was diagnosed with herpes. I didn`t tell him initially because our sleeping together was...rather spur of the moment. I suppose I was too embarrassed, liked him a lot, and justified not telling him based on the fact that I haven`t had another outbreak. Is it likely that he has it? He hasn`t complained of outbreaks, but i did notice for a couple months he had `acne` on his groin area. It wasn`t on his penis/testicles, though--just the area of the abdomen directly above. He said he thought it was acne, and that it didn`t hurt.
3. If there`s any other info you`d like to share beyond the typical rundown (i`ve read a LOT on the net about stds/pregnancy/abortion/etc), I would be very appreciative.
Yes I will make an appointment to see the gynecologist (suppose I`ve been putting it off due to sad/bad feelings post-abortion)
Thank you for your time and advice.
1. It can't be cured. It usually recurs during times of stress like menses, pregnancy.
2. This is from the Genital Herpes - CDC Fact Sheet
"HSV-1 and HSV-2 can be found in and released from the sores that the viruses cause, but they also are released between outbreaks from skin that does not appear to have a sore. Generally, a person can only get HSV-2 infection during sexual contact with someone who has a genital HSV-2 infection. Transmission can occur from an infected partner who does not have a visible sore and may not know that he or she is infected."
I highly suggest you tell your boyfriend what's going on so he can also take extra precaution.
3. The CDC page on Genital Herpes is an excellent resource.

Scientists keep trying to disprove the Standard Model that governs modern physics. And they keep failing.
The Standard Model of particle physics, sometimes referred to as the "theory of almost everything," unites three of the four fundamental forces of the universe. It proposes a zoo of 17 particles to mediate these forces. The last to be found is the celebrated Higgs boson.But the Standard Model has its share of problems. It's built on the "fundamental constants" of nature, but it doesn't explain why the constants have the values they do. Nor does it explain dark matter or unite gravity with the other three fundamental forces, a union both physicists and astronomers are convinced must exist.
Physicists' current favorite of non-Standard theories is supersymmetry, which proposes that each of the 17 particles in the Standard Model zoo has a corresponding "superpartner" with a different spin and probably a heavier mass, too. Supersymmetry solves a lot of problems — most importantly for astronomers, it provides "weakly interactive massive particles" (so-called WIMPs) that might be the dark matter they've been searching for.
But theorists have their work cut out for them. Several teams presenting at the American Astronomical Society (AAS) this week in Long Beach, California, have tried to find non-Standard physics in the distant universe, and failed.
Counting Neutrino Families
The universe created hydrogen and deuterium (a heavy version of hydrogen, with a neutron in its nucleus) in the first 20 minutes of its existence. So measuring how much deuterium and hydrogen there is in distant, pristine gas clouds tells us about the newborn universe, including the number of speedy particles called neutrinos that formed in the chaos. The Standard Model predicts three families of neutrinos, and that's what particle accelerators have found, too, but some non-Standard theories say that number might have changed over cosmic time.
To measure deuterium and hydrogen abundances some 10-12 billion years ago, astronomers such as Ryan Cooke (University of California, Santa Cruz) examine quasars, beacons radiating from the most distant stretches of the observable universe. That emission carries a message of what lies between the quasars and us, so astronomers have an indirect glimpse of ancient gas clouds as they absorb the quasars' radiation. Cooke's team measured the primordial abundance of hydrogen and deuterium in several of these gas clouds, and then they converted that value to the number of neutrino families.
"If we found a value different from standard model, then we could also claim that this could be due to a change in gravitational constant or a whole host of other things," Cooke said at a press conference at the AAS. But they didn't. They found the number of neutrino families is 3, with a spread in values of 0.5.
The story's not over yet, though. The team was surprised by the large spread in values, which couldn't be explained by error alone. So the researchers are re-analyzing the data in a more consistent way. If the spread is still there when they're done, they'll have to come up with an explanation.
Of Protons and Electrons
One of the Standard Model's fundamental constants is the mass ratio between protons and electrons. This ratio relates to the strong force, the force that holds the subatomic world together by binding quarks together to make protons and neutrons and binding protons and neutrons together to make atomic nuclei.
But if the strong force evolves over the history of the universe, then so will the mass ratio. That's exactly what some theories attempting to go beyond the Standard Model call for.
Julija Bagdonaite (University of Amsterdam) and her colleagues studied PKS 1830-211, a spiral galaxy seen as it was 7 billion years ago. By comparing molecular transitions with those measured in an Earth-bound laboratory, they found that the mass ratio doesn't change at all.
"This important new result was like a Christmas present for me," said Rodger Thompson (University of Arizona), who presented the paper at the AAS. "It presents very serious constraints on current alternative cosmologies."
Fine Structure Constant
The fine structure constant, another of the fundamental constants of the Standard Model, determines the strength of the electromagnetic force. Some supersymmetry models suggest that this constant should vary too. To measure this constant over time, Jonathan Whitmore (Swinburne University of Technology, Australia) and his colleagues observed absorption lines in distant quasars using the Very Large Telescope in Chile.
At this point, you can probably repeat the refrain with me: their results are consistent with no change in the fine structure constant over cosmic time.
What's a Theorist to Do?
"All three results simply say that what we've found now is consistent with the Standard Model," Thompson said. "Simplified supersymmetry calculations have not given values that are consistent with what we're observing."
But supersymmetry is a wily beast. "There are many different ways supersymmetry can be altered to accommodate these results," Thompson added.
In other words, the measurements above have put some restraints on the multitude of supersymmetry models that theorists can come up with, but theorists still have plenty of room to play. At least now they are playing with a little reality mixed in.
Observers still have room to play, too. Despite the null results, Cooke, Thompson, Whitmore, and their colleagues remain determined to keep going. Many supersymmetry models predict the fundamental constants varied more in the very young universe, so astronomers will keep pushing to ever-greater distances to see if that prediction's true.

It is possible that the main title of the report Cone Dystrophy is not the name you expected. Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report.
Cone dystrophy is a general term used to describe a group of rare eye disorders that affect the cone cells of the retina. Cone dystrophy can variably cause a variety of symptoms including decreased visual clarity (acuity) when looking straight ahead (central vision), a reduced ability to see colors and an increased sensitivity to light (photophobia). Cone dystrophy may be broken down into two broad groups - stationary and progressive. In stationary cone dystrophy symptoms tend to remain stable and are usually present at birth or early childhood. In progressive cone dystrophy symptoms slowly become worse over time. There are several different forms of cone dystrophy. The age of onset, progression and severity of cone dystrophy can vary greatly from one person to another, even among individuals with the same type of cone dystrophy. Some forms of cone dystrophy are inherited; other forms appear to occur spontaneously for no apparent reason (sporadically).
A variety of different and confusing names have been used to describe the various forms of cone dystrophy. Some researchers limit the term "cone dystrophy" to the progressive forms of the disorder. Other researchers use cone dystrophy as an umbrella term for both the stationary and progressive forms of cone dystrophy - examples of which include achromatopsia, incomplete achromatopsia, blue cone monochromatism, and X-linked progressive cone dystrophy. This report is a general overview report on stationary and progressive cone dystrophy. For more information on an individual form of cone dystrophy use the disorder's specific name as your search term in the Rare Disease Database or contact one of the organizations listed in the resources section of this report.

So far this season, Koshechkin has gotten the benefit of Fountain's experience but still retained the lion's share of Lada's starts, so it's seemingly been a win-win situation thus far. [url=evgeny-artyukhin]Evgeny Artyukhin[/url] was scoreless in Yaroslavl's 5-2 win over SKA. He did, however, manage to run his penalty minute total to 70 in 14 games. Anton But was scoreless for St. Petersburg in the loss. [url=denis-kazionov]Denis Kazionov[/url] was scoreless in Tver's 6-5 loss to Omsk. The 2006 7th round pick is still looking for his first point of the season.

We've already seen people as high up the food chain as Jon Tester saying that Edward Snowden's leaked material didn't really hurt anything. But does that argument hold water? One report from a leading data firm claims to have done a very thorough investigation and concludes that al Qaida made some big changes to their communications protocols shortly after the Snowden material moved into the public domain.
According to a new report to be released Friday by big data firm Recorded Future , a direct connection can be drawn: Just months after the Snowden documents were released, al-Qaida dramatically changed the way its operatives interacted online.
"We saw at least three major product releases coming out with different organizations with al-Qaida and associated organizations fairly quickly after the Snowden disclosures," said Recorded Future's CEO and co-founder Christopher Ahlberg. "But we wanted to go deeper and see how big those changes were."
By "product releases," Ahlberg means new software. And for the first time, Recorded Future says, it can now codify just how big a change it was.
Through some reverse engineering magic, Recorded Future determined that the terrorists had been using a home grown encryption program called Mujahideen Secrets for the past seven years with only minor updates to the code. (To be thorough, I went and looked for Mujahideen Secrets on my Droid right after reading this story, but the Play Store doesn't offer that app for Android.) But after the Snowden leaks dropped, things took a sudden turn.
As it turns out, Recorded Future and Reversing Labs discovered that al-Qaida didn't just tinker at the edges of its seven-year-old encryption software; it overhauled it. The new programs no longer use much of what's known as "homebrew," or homemade algorithms. Instead, al-Qaida has started incorporating more sophisticated open-source code to help disguise its communications.
None of this sounds terribly surprising and likely just serves as confirmation that the terrorists are keenly aware of international news headlines and respond to whatever information they can get accordingly. It's also worth noting – as another analyst in the story mentions – that this isn't absolute proof of a causal relationship between the two events. It's possible that they just felt the software was long past due for an overhaul and would have done it anyway. But that's relying awfully heavily on coincidence.
Of course, the real questions about the Snowden leaks go unanswered in this report. The fact that they upgraded their software is interesting, but what we still don't know – and may never know, for obvious reasons – is how much other damage was done. How many agents had to be moved around or removed for protection? How many foreign informants supplying us with information were compromised, or simply disappeared? What opportunities were lost which our intelligence agencies clearly can't talk about in public?
If you still think Snowden was a hero, read through this report and ask yourself those questions. Yes, there are big questions about the NSA and its practices – particularly regarding US citizens – which deserve answers. But Snowden went a lot further than just that and he's not just a whistle blower.

Bills logo was artist's crowning achievement
He never played a down for the Buffalo Bills. He never lived in Buffalo. And if he ever attended a Bills game, he never saw one in Buffalo.
But Stevens Wright, who died March 18 in his native California at age 81, was an important figure in Buffalo Bills history, even if the biggest Bills trivia buffs and the oldest team officials never heard of him.
Wright was a commercial illustrator, mostly in the aerospace industry for McDonnell Douglas.
But he's also the man who put the charging buffalo on the Bills helmet, a design that has survived for 39 years.
"It was life-changing for him," said daughter Beverly Wright Woo. "As an artist, he considered this his greatest accomplishment. He told me that the legacy he left behind was the Bills logo, that he left a footprint for the world."
Few people knew about the accomplishment. Wright, by all accounts, was a freelance illustrator for NFL Properties. But only a few old letters testify to Wright's achievement, and it's clear that this was his most successful football project.
Any history of Bills uniforms, helmets and logos shows that the team, which had patterned its uniforms after the Detroit Lions' for its first two years, adopted a standing red buffalo for its white helmets in 1962. That logo survived through the 1973 season; the iconic photos of O.J. Simpson rushing for 2,003 yards in 1973 show the standing red buffalo.
"In 1974, the standing bison logo was replaced by a blue charging one with a red slanting stripe streaming from its horn," one historical account notes, referring to Wright's creation.
There are at least two theories about what inspired Wright's charging bison.
"He never said, but knowing my dad, I think it gave a sense of power to the buffalo, taking it from a standing position to charging forward," Woo said of her father. "That was a symbol for where the team was going."
Her brother, Steve Wright, has a different theory, related to Simpson's assault on the record books throughout the early 1970s.
"My dad was making an artistic expression of what he loved most about football," Wright said. "He loved running backs and the running game. I think O.J.'s quest for the rushing record was part of my dad's inspiration."
Just as Bills fans don't know much about Wright, his family doesn't know all the stories about what the Bills did with his design.
In 1984, the Bills put Wright's logo on a red helmet, rather than the traditional white. The reason: three of the Bills' division opponents at the time [the Patriots, Dolphins and Colts] wore white helmets, and the team hoped that the new red headgear could help quarterback Joe Ferguson spot his receivers more quickly and cut down his interceptions.
"Everyone we played had white helmets at that time," Ferguson said, according to buffalobills.com. "Our new head coach Kay Stephenson just wanted to get more of a contrast on the field that may help spot a receiver down the field."
Ferguson's interceptions dropped from 25 in 1983 to 17 the following year, but, alas, the team still finished 2-14.
Then two years ago, the Bills went back to the white helmets, but still kept the charging buffalo, pleasing Wright.
"Finally, they've got it right," Steve Wright quoted his father as saying.
Historians would find little mention of Wright's name in any documents pertaining to the 1974 helmet change.
But his family does have a copy of a September 1973 letter from Bills vice president and general manager Robert T. Lustig to NFL Properties, thanking it for the charging-buffalo design, according to Wright's surviving wife, Jere.
"The one design that has the great majority interested in it is the blue [charging] buffalo with the red stripe," Lustig wrote, before suggesting a slight change in the stripe. "We very definitely are interested in this and more than likely will effect a change as soon as we are sure in our mind what is the most attractive and appealing design."
Jere Wright also found a copy of a 1979 letter that her husband had, from NFL Properties executive David Boss to a student writing a thesis on team uniforms and helmets.
"The question of artists/designers for the helmet emblems and when they were created is often hazy," that letter states. "The clubs are not always certain themselves."
That document also mentions that, according to NFL Properties' information, the Bills logo was designed by Stevens Wright of Long Beach, Calif., and McDonnell Douglas.
According to Wright's family, he designed helmet logos for the now-defunct World League of American Football, including the San Antonio Riders, Sacramento Surge and Ohio Glory. Wright also redesigned the San Francisco 49ers helmet in 1991, prior to a contemplated move to San Jose, but that never happened. And he redesigned the New England Patriots helmet in 1978, but the fans preferred to stay with the Minuteman logo, his family said.
The Bills obviously were his crowning triumph.
"It's a symbol that unites a lot of people," Steve Wright said. "For my dad to bring people together around that symbol, it's really satisfying. I'm glad it's lasted this many years."
Woo, one of his daughters, wanted to thank Bills fans for continuing to rally around her father's creation.
She knows how she'll feel the first time she sees someone wearing the logo this season, the first one after her father's death.
"It's going to make me cry," she said. "But it's also going to make me proud."

Maxon Pedals Special Price Offer!
Since their beginning in the late 1960s, Maxon has built their reputation on a single concept quality. Early on the Maxon engineers realized that anything could be built faster and cheaper, but to build something better was the true mark of a master. Their relentless pursuit of perfection met many obstacles over the years, but like anyone committed to a cause, Maxon kept their sights focused on the ultimate goal to build the highest quality audio products possible.
Maxon's quest led them to many firsts in the industry: the first realistic tube-amp overdrive; the first compact analog delay; the first multi-effect unit; the first programmable effect the list goes on. And while many companies have "borrowed" these groundbreaking design concepts over the years, few have been able to match Maxon's ingenuity, determination and longevity on their own.
Today, after nearly 25 years as an OEM supplier to some of the music industry's largest companies (Maxon built the classic Ibanez 9-series pedals, such as the TS9 Tubescreamer), Maxon is once again offering their own brand of products to the marketplace. They've made available detailed information on Maxon's line of analog effect units including technical specs, audio demos, user comments, and design secrets that have until now remained classified. We hope you gain as much enjoyment from studying this information as we did!
Thirty years in, Maxon has their sight set on the same goal to build the finest quality audio products possible, always. Maxon still effecting generations.

The agenda is set and plans for three days of meetings and other activities also are in place. As the Louisiana High School Athletic Association begins its annual convention Wednesday, LHSAA President Brent Vidrine of Neville-Monroe, offered some basic thoughts.
"I expect it to be an exciting convention," Vidrine said. "There will be a lot going on. I find that a lot of things change once you get to the convention. We may talk in our own areas of the state, but once you get to the convention you get a perspective from other principals and that counts for a lot.
"The important thing for us as a group is to make decisions that are the best for our student-athletes and everyone involved in high school sports in our state."
The LHSAA convention begins Wednesday with an executive committee meeting set for 10 a.m. at Baton Rouge's Crowne Plaza. The Louisiana High School Athletic Directors Association will also have its conference from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Activities will conclude with the Louisiana High School Sports Hall of Fame induction ceremony set for 6 p.m.
Vidrine did not specifically address the key issues, two proposals would divide the LHSAA into separate playoffs for nonselect and select schools. Those issues and others will be spotlighted as the convention continues Thursday and Friday at the Crowne Plaza.
Thursday's events include roundtable discussions on LHSAA matters, including the agenda, at 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. There will also be a sports medicine roundtable at 10 a.m., along with meetings for principals in each individual class set for 3:20 p.m.
The Coca-Cola convention luncheon is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. Thursday and features Duke University's Greg A. Dale, a sports psychologist, discussing "Parent of Student-Athletes."
The three-day convention concludes with a 9 a.m. general assembly meeting Friday. Member principals will vote on agenda items during that time.
The first select/nonselect proposal was tabled at the 2012 convention and requires a vote to be taken off the table for consideration. It will divide LHSAA schools in separate playoffs for football and other major team sports starting in 2015-16. The second proposal would put schools in separate playoffs for football only starting this fall.
Nonselect schools are defined as traditional public schools with attendance zones. Select schools include private schools, charter schools, magnet schools, laboratory schools and dual-curriculum schools with a magnet component that draws a certain percentage of enrollment from outside their attendance zones. Select schools make up about 30 percent of the LHSAA's 388 member schools.
Winnfield Principal Jane Griffin leads a group of principals who put up the football only proposal, citing the chance to try it out for football with the districts already set last fall. Both proposals allow for five nonselect championships and two select championships, though Griffin said she would not be opposed to amendments to offer more select championships.
"The first thing you look at with the LHSAA is No. 1, is it in the best interest of student-athletes and is it fair and equitable," Griffin said. "What we have right now is not fair and equitable."
Griffin cites her own school as an example, noting that Winnfield beat private school football power John Curtis to win the 3A title in 1982 and didn't make another title game until 2011 when it lost to Curtis in the 2A final. Curtis now has 25 state title and has made 17 straight finals appearances.
Others, like Broadmoor Principal Dary Glueck, offer an opposing view.
"No, I just can't be for it, and neither are my coaches," Glueck said. "Maybe our dynamic is a little different in Baton Rouge. I have people from other areas say, 'Well, I know you don't like Parkview (Baptist), a football power.' And I tell them yes we do.
"When we play Parkview, we know the crowd will be good and it will be good competition. The bottom line is we want to play all the teams, not just some of them."
Hall of Fame inductees
Five coaches and one official will be inducted into the Louisiana High School Sports Hall of Fame.
The coaches are former Carencro football coach Mac Barousse, the late Eugene "Gene" Bennett Jr., a basketball coach at St. Paul's, former Albany girls basketball coach Karen Hoyt, ex-Anacoco multi-sport coach Vic Ortiz and former Rummel baseball coach Larry J. Schneider.
Longtime wrestling official Cliff Strider is also part of the induction class.

Split Rail Systems are used for the exchange of individual rail vehicle wheelsets from their trucks/bogies
Freight car wheel sets can easily be exchanged due to their simple removal process from their truck
Removal of wheelsets from transit and LRT vehicles will depend on the complexity of the removal process on each transit vehicle's manufacturers design
Split rail systems require the use of a raised rail track section for the removal procedure.
Our supplied battery powered lifting carts (hydraulic or screw lift) travel between the raised rails to pre-set multiple rail opening areas along the track.
Currently there are four main designs of our past systems:
Rails manually removed at multiple track locations, Powered Cart lowers and rotates wheelset
Rails automatically lower at multiple track locations, Powered Cart lowers and rotates wheelset
Rails manually swung open at multiple track locations, Powered Cart lowers wheelset
Based on your facility layout, we can design a system for your application.
Our designs are based on our customers requirements:

It's amazing what soup can do, as Campbell's ads once declared. It's also amazing what incentives can do when you have the right ingredients for a development project.
In 2011, Campbell got a $41.2 million tax credit under Urban Transit Hub to renovate its headquarters, an award that fell to $34.2 million after the company announced plans to eliminate 130 jobs in Camden, where it has been based since 1869.
It's one of only two Urban Transit Hub awards the city ever got.
Richard Landers, Campbell's vice president of tax and real estate, said in an email that the company participated in and supported the Urban Transit Hub, but "the new legislation clearly improves upon it."
Campbell's close eye on how the new incentives will play out in Camden has little to do with soup and everything to do with redevelopment. Besides investing more than $130 million into its headquarters, Landers said, the company serves as the master redeveloper of the planned Gateway Office Park, a 50-acre site surrounding the Campbell campus.
Landers said Campbell is looking to work with a developer in an effort to attract businesses to the proposed office park, and the "new economic development reforms will prove valuable" to the process.
Having a large company like Campbell involved from a development standpoint is a big asset, Anthony Perno said.
"We've not had a powerhouse like that before assisting in this process," Perno said of Campbell.

Team Finishes West Coast Trip with 1-1 Record
STANFORD, Calif. – No. 13 Stanford took advantage of all three of its penalty corners, scoring a goal on each of them, en route to a 4-0 win over the Yale field hockey team Sunday afternoon at Stanford's Varsity Turf.
The game was scoreless until Stanford got its first penalty corner and attacker Hope Burke fed defender Kelsey Harbin for a goal at 27:35. That was the sixth goal of the season for Harbin, the Cardinal's leading scorer and a teammate of senior midfielder/back Georgia Holland for the U.S. at the Junior World Cup this past summer.
Stanford (10-3, 3-1 NorPac) extended the lead six minutes later with another penalty corner goal, this one by attacker Lauren Becker -- a deflection into the top left corner of the goal. The Cardinal went into halftime up 2-0.
Yale (4-7, 1-2 Ivy League) outshot Stanford 8-7 in the second half, including six shots on goal. But Stanford keeper Dulcie Davies, who entered the week seventh in the country in goals-against average (1.15) and ninth in save percentage (.787), turned aside every shot she faced en route to her second straight shutout.
Midfielder Elise Ogle scored Stanford's lone non-penalty corner goal, redirecting in a pass form Burke at 39:16 to make the score 3-0. After senior Emily Cain came on in relief of junior Heather Schlesier in goal for the Bulldogs, midfielder Kasey Quon completed the scoring with a penalty corner goal at 59:24.
Schlesier finished with four saves, while Cain made two.
In a game that was unusually physical, the Bulldogs had three different players out at various points due to injuries.
"We faced a tremendous amount of adversity, and I'm very proud of the way the team battled and kept fighting," said Pam Stuper, Yale's Caroline Ruth Thompson '02 Head Coach of Field Hockey. "We lost players at a variety of different positions and had to move people around accordingly. Still, in the last 10 minutes, we had the ball down in Stanford's end and had several scoring opportunities."
Yale returns home from its West Coast trip, which included a 3-2 win at Cal Saturday, to host Dartmouth on Saturday Oct. 19.

What's New
Transmogrifier Font by Pintassilgo Prints
Inspired on Cuban posters by the talented and prolific graphic artist Eduardo Muñoz Bachs, Transmogrifier glyphs were hand painted with a thin brush, using loose, fast strokes.
This font is packed with lots of contextual and stylistic alternates that automatically transmogrifies the letters as you write (in OpenType savvy applications).
It's also possible to pick the alternates by hand and set the text the way you like better. Choice is yours, and there are plenty of alternates to choose from, just perfect for creating original handlettered-looking designs.
The font also brings a set of rough pictures based in charcoal sketches from Shniedewend & Lee Company, 1888. They were also hand painted using the same thin brush as the letters, making it a natural complement.
Let the transmogrification begin!

Wildwood woman pleads guilty in fatal Waukegan accident
A Wildwood woman will spend 30 months in periodic imprisonment after pleading guilty to aggravated driving under the influence of alcohol in Lake County court.
Kristin Miller, 41, of the 52000 block of John Mogg Road, will also spend four years on probation for being intoxicated while driving when she struck a car driven by Freddie Adams-Dotson, 48, of the 3000 block of Norma Lane.
Adams-Dotson was killed in the December 2010 crash.
Under the terms of the Dec. 4 plea, Miller will be released from jail only for work and treatment, and she is not allowed to have any contact with the family of the victim, authorities said.
She is also required to make a $100 donation in the victim's name every anniversary of the crash to the Alliance Against Intoxicated Motorists, Lake County Assistant State's Attorney Scott Turk said.
Miller was charged after hitting Adam-Dotson's Chevy Cavalier in the 200 block of North Green Bay Road in Waukegan.
Miller was taken to Vista East where blood was drawn and tested. She was later charged with failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, driving under the influence of alcohol and aggravated DUI causing a death, authorities said.

Here, we present a recorded version of Dr James Knoll's Tales from the New Asylum. . .Shadow: A Blow So Appalling.
Here's why it is painful to see a man cry: he's not supposed to. Emotions are arresting when society tells us they should not be expressed. In the case of a grown man crying, there are some thousands of years of cultural training laying down the prohibitive regulations. These prohibitions gave added emphasis to Gabe's forceful, agonized sobbing. Crying may be easily faked. Yet the type of crying that results in copious mucous and tears streaming from one's nostrils would be taxing, even for the elite malingerer.
Gabe was in prison for killing a prostitute. During a bout of hyper-sexuality, intoxication, and paranoia, he believed the prostitute intended to rob him...

Accounting Student Paul Hong Honored at Conference
Accounting Student Paul Hong received an award for the best student paper at a recent Accounting Information Systems Educators Association (AISEA) conference. His paper was titled "Separating Cats from Dogs Can Save You Trouble: A Case Created to Enhance Students' Abilities in Identifying Employee Red Flags and Incompatible Duties."
