Engadget's Joshua Topolsky published his review earlier today, probably coinciding with the official launch. He believes the iPad is a 'computing revolution'. "The iPad as a computing revolution," he writes, "Does the iPad evolve the personal computer in a significant way? Yeah, actually, it kind of does. Despite what you think right now, and despite the limitations Apple has put on some aspects of this device, what it says to the market is significant. The iPad is powerful, elegant, and largely unlike any computer you've ever used."
He basically says that if you "listen to music, casually browse the web and read news sites, watch some online video, play games, and keep in touch with friends via Twitter, IM, and Facebook", then the iPad is perfect for you. This looks suspiciously like the 80/20 rule to me, and that rule is utter nonsense; at one point, you'll want to do something else, for which you will still need your laptop. Can you predict exactly when those moments come?
I'm still pulling stuff out of my bum here of course, since I've never used or even seen the iPad. Still, after all these reviews and videos, I'm still not exactly sure why anyone should buy the iPad instead of a MacBook or even a netbook. I don't see the iPad perform any task better than a notebook/netbook, which makes me wonder: why not just get a laptop right away?
Apple is trying to create a new product category here, and sure, the enthusiasts are all over this thing like ants over honey, but I'm just not convinced you'll still be using your iPad once the novelty wears off. Again - before I'm accused of being anti-Apple - I haven't yet used an iPad, so my opinion is effectively worthless. Let me add that while we're talking iPad now, this more or less applies to any tablet device I've seen.
I guess time will tell, and I'm fairly sure time will prove me wrong. At this point, I'm the only person in the world who doesn't see the magic or revolution - all I see is a big iPod Touch with some added UI elements that come straight from the desktop world. I do like the newspaper and comic books application though, they look pretty neat.
Can't beat reading a real newspaper on the can, though, and you can't share iPad comics.

Loyola press release - April 2, 2012
Brooks Zitzmann, staff counselor at the University Counseling Center in the Office of Student Affairs, was awarded the Ignatian Medal for Outstanding New Professional in Jesuit Student Affairs. The award, given at the National Association of Student Personnel Administrators conference earlier this month, is conferred on individuals who have distinguished themselves in the early years of their careers, with three years or less service in Jesuit student affairs work. Established in spring 1997, the award is given annually.
"Whether coordinating Loyola's annual Take Back the Night event, meeting with students struggling with mental health issues, researching the resilience of a New Orleans-based Vietnamese community in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina or attending an Ignatian silent retreat, she embodies our mission in both words and action," said M.L. "Cissy" Petty, Ph.D., vice president for student affairs and associate provost.
Of particular note is Zitzmann's cutting edge work on Loyola's ADVOCACY Initiative. The AI program serves as a resource for victims of sexual assault and reaches out to train Loyola students, staff and faculty for emotional support, referral information and options for reporting. Thanks to her effort, students, staff and faculty work collaboratively and collectively toward a common vision rooted in the Jesuit ideals of dignity, wholeness and compassion.

Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
I am a lightworker lemming. Not a teenage werewolf or survivor of a chain gang, but a lightworker lemming. To escape from the ravages of Lemming Disease, I made the task a lifelong study. I now experience moments of release and then periodic onset of the disease again. I cannot relax my vigil even for an instant because the disease re-presents itself if given the slightest opening.
Because the condition can be serious, can spread in a very short time and can reach epidemic proportions seemingly overnight, I am issuing this medical alert. I recommend that everyone familiarize themselves with the facts of this disease. I can only refer to my own experience to show how difficult it is to treat and how extensive are its ravages.
Lemming Disease is ancient. It was known in Roman times, the Middle Ages, on the frontier, and in the modern city. It is found in all climates. It has been seen in the Holy Land as well as less holy lands. It afflicts a large proportion of the population. When it breaks out, it can quickly spread throughout the masses – particularly throughout the masses.
It is named after an innocuous creature, which, when it abandons individual judgment or discernment, can take catastrophic steps, even extending to extinguishing its own life in service to the emotionally-aroused group.
It has been called by different names at different times: following the crowd, mob rule, redneck behavior, etc. It is spread by a carrier clinically known as a demagogue but popularly known as a rabble-rouser. It thrives on rhetoric and what one doctor has called "memes." Memes are slogan-like encapsulations of events, which leave out as much as they explain. Lemmings thrive on memes just as fruitflies thrive on table scraps.
Contracted early in life, it can be episodic and periodic. Left untreated over time, it can gain control of the organism and quickly become chronic. It grows by repeated episodes.
Signs and Symptoms
The leading sign of the disease is self-righteousness, a sense communicated by word or gesture that one is right, one's side is right, one's side has God on it, will win, will leave the other in the ash heap of history, etc. This sign gradually resolves itself into a particular facial mask which displays disdain for others and unfailing confidence in the rightness of one's own cause.
Its symptoms are snap judgments and knee-jerk reactions to events, the onset of mental and emotional arthritis, with a general stiffening of the mental and emotional joints. Eventually our voices and ideas become restricted in their range and we become living fossils.
Target Population
It can affect anyone. But it particularly afflicts the brave, those who are willing to stand out from the usual passivity of the group and protest an unwanted condition. To find strength, they join in numbers and engage in antipathetic behavior, which can quickly go to excess and does not yield to reason.
Ironically, having initially stood out from the group, the victim of Lemming Disease now succumbs to the group.
In its extreme form, redneck victims of it can be found in any population – darkworker or lightworker. The same sclerosis or arthritis results no matter what one's view or intentions. It spreads quickly among men. Locker-room behavior is a particularly-fruitful medium. But it does not spare women.
Lemming Disease has many causes. It spreads because numbers offer a sense of comfort and safety. People under its influence do what they never would have done alone. It is seen to spread wildly under conditions of public assembly or discussion.
In its beginning stages, the condition is temporary and leaves one feeling ashamed upon subsidence, if one has any residual connection with one's inner doctor, that is. Lingering self-righteousness perpetuates it by allowing one to live with the results of an outbreak. It is a form of compensation for the damage caused by one's behavior.
Much worse than alcoholism, an outbreak of Lemming Disease can utterly throw one off the wagon and induce one to do monstrous things. One loses connection with one's conscience. One can commit all manner of unspeakable crimes. One can even kill while under the influence.
It is known to induce temporary euphoria which has a hypnotic effect. During an outbreak, one could throw oneself off a cliff or do other things that could result in harm to onseself or death. One would never ordinarily do these things while calm or sane.
Hindus have a compendium of natural remedies called the Bhagavad-Gita, which describes the disease and its eventual outcome.
Be angry, and you confuse the mind;
Confuse your mind, you forget the lesson of experience;
Forget experience, you lose discrimination;
Lose discrimination, and you miss life's only purpose. (1)
Lemming Disease works its effects by causing one to lose discrimination or discernment. Pandemonium is the result. It is a form of temporary insanity or delusion. Slowly it results in a change of state, inducing a chronic form of mental and emotional sclerosis, arthritis, calcification, and petrification.
The Cure
A peculiar feature of this condition is that it cannot be cured in a period of remission. An outbreak must occur for it to be seen and treated. While a "sleeping volcano," its presence cannot be detected. Only an eruption brings it to the surface, within reach of treatment. This is the only reason why an outbreak might be welcomed. But feeling it and yet not acting on it can be a delicate art.
To cure it requires our removal from the issue of the moment and a calm reception to the mind's deeper layers, until the real source of the upset becomes revealed and cleared. I call this the "emotional clearing process" and have written a number of medical texts on it. (2)
Some varieties of meditation can help. I particularly recommend a ten-day Vipassana meditation retreat, to bathe in the calm waters of the discerning mind and observe the upset, or a seven-day stay at an "Enlightenment Intensive" sanatorium, there to engage in a group process that addresses the disease. A single stay will simply reveal to us the presence of the disease. It takes repeated treatments to escape from it.
Many feel that the achievement of a particular state of "enlightenment" makes one immune to Lemming Disease, but apparently not. The tendency to respond in a kneejerk manner can afflict the enlightened as well. The death of kneejerk responses apparently does not come, alas, until a very advanced state of enlightenment (clinically known as "sahaja nirvikalpa samadhi"). Or it comes from liberal, repeated, and sustained use of the disease-clearing protocol.
I have tended to follow my own twelve-step program to extricate myself from its clutches. I own that I am powerless over my condition. Only a higher power can restore me to sanity. I have made a searching and fearless moral inventory and admitted the exact nature of my wrongs. And now I soberly carry this message out to others who are susceptible to the disease.
At this time of year, we remember a particular victim of this condition, one Ebenezer Scrooge. Once a recognized success and a man ahead of his time, Scrooge gradually became fossilized by repeated outbursts. He was redeemed by a series of epiphanies which shocked him into a new way of being. Let his emotional sclerosis and mental arthritis be a warning to us all. Turn aside from lemming behavior, O reader, to avoid peril to your immortal soul.

As the University strives to achieve its Strategic Plan, the annual budget process is an integral part of identifying the best use of limited resources. Each year colleges, academic affair units, and student and institutional support units are asked to identify funding needed to meet our strategic goals. In addition, all stakeholders are invited to submit funding requests for university-wide strategic initiatives. These requests will be reviewed by the Provost and Chancellor's Cabinet with their recommendations being submitted to the Budget Review and Recommendation Committee for review. The Committee recommendations are submitted to the Chancellor for final budgetary approval. The Chancellor communicates the final budget to the campus. The flowchart below provides more detail.

In 2012, the global economic growth was weak, the bulk commodity demand was reduced, and the prices generally declined. As a result, the molybdenum market remained in the doldrums, the prices showed a downward trend, and the annual average price was USD 12.74 per pound of molybdenum, a decrease of 17.5% from 2011. At the end of 2012, the supply of molybdenum ore decreased, the demand from steel mills increased, and the molybdenum price began to rise.
In 2012, the global molybdenum output was 229 kilotons and the consumption was 225 kilotons, basically in balance. With the recovery of steel demand since the fourth quarter of 2012, the demand for molybdenum is expected to resume growth. After 2014, some mines currently under construction will start production, such as Chile's Sierra Gorda copper-molybdenum mine (controlled by KGHM and Sumitomo Metal) that is expected to start production in 2014. In addition, Grupo Mexico and Rio Tinto also plan to increase production.
To Read the Complete Report with TOC Visit: http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/166946
China is a large producer and consumer of molybdenum in the world, and the global increment in the production and consumption of molybdenum in the past two years mainly came from China. In 2012, China produced 92 kilotons of molybdenum (equivalent to metal content), accounting for 40.2% of the global molybdenum output, and consumed 85 kilotons, accounting for 37.8% of the global molybdenum consumption. Due to the national protection on strategic resources, molybdenum resources will be concentrated in large enterprises, and the supply will be effectively controlled.
Global molybdenum producers are mainly concentrated in countries with rich molybdenum reserves such as China, the United States and Chile. Global top 10 molybdenum producers account for 2/3 of the global output. Mineral resources are controlled by major molybdenum companies, and the access to large-quantity and high-quality molybdenum ore resources has become the biggest obstacle to entering the industry.
In 2012, top 10 molybdenum producers accounted for 66.4% of the global output, and the U.S. Freeport was the largest molybdenum producer with a share of 17%, followed by Chile's Codelo and GMexico.
Chinese molybdenum production enterprises are mainly concentrated in the regions with rich molybdenum reserves such as Henan, Shaanxi and Liaoning. Jinduicheng Molybdenum and Luoyang Molybdenum, the owners of world-class molybdenum mines Jinduicheng Molybdenum Mine and Luanchuan Molybdenum Mine respectively, are in the forefront of the world, and ranked fourth and fifth respectively in the world in terms of molybdenum output in 2012.

With six chapters and 89 charts, Global and China Molybdenum Industry Report, 2012-2015 makes an in-depth analysis of the development background, current status and market pattern of molybdenum industry in China and worldwide, and sheds light on the production, operation and development trend of global molybdenum industry leaders such as FCX and GMexico as well as Chinese enterprises including Jinduicheng Molybdenum and Luoyang Molybdenum.

Profile of Jeff Bezos
Business Personality
Date Of Birth:
12 January 1964
Place Of Birth:
Albuquerque, New Mexico
Best Known As:
The CEO and founder of Amazon.com
Jeff Bezos is the founder and Chief Executive Officer of Amazon.com, one of the pillars of Internet e-commerce and one of the most valued companies in the world. Bezos graduated from Princeton University in 1986 with degrees in computer science and electrical engineering. After a few years in New York as a financial analyst, Bezos moved to Seattle and founded Amazon.com in 1994. Through innovation and sheer business savvy, Bezos built up Amazon.com and became one of the world's richest people in the process. Named Time magazine's Man of the Year in 1999, Bezos became a celebrity entrepreneur, known for his buoyant personality as much as his financial know-how. With Bezos at the helm, Amazon.com weathered financial ups and downs and expanded from selling books and CDs to a wide variety of consumer goods. Jeff Bezos is also known for his many side projects: in 2000 he helped found Blue Origin, a whose goal is to build reusable rocket ships to encourage tourism in outer space. And in 2013 he became a media mogul with his surprise purchase of The Washington Post for $250 million. As of 2018, he was the richest person in the world, with a net worth of over $104 billion.
Extra Credit:
Amazon.com is headquartered in Seattle, Washington — the same area where Bill Gates built Microsoft… Jeff Bezos appeared in television commercials for the fast food chain Taco Bell in 2001… In an interview with the Academy of Achievement website, Jeff Bezos said "Two people I always would read about were Thomas Edison and Walt Disney. Those were sort of my two biographical heroes."

This business about the "best" answer is nonsense. The right answers are right (they are supported by the passage AND answer the question asked) and the wrong answers are wrong (they are either not supported by the passage or they don't answer the question asked). The writers never give you two right answers where one is subjectively "better" than the other.That being said, the ONLY questions on which I would skip reading all the answer choices are Must be True questions in the Games section.
why do only skip Must Be True LG questions? What about Inference LR questions (sometimes presented as Must be True)? I'm sure there are other question types that warrant finding the answer and moving on?

VERONA, Va. — A family dog is credited for discovering an envelope filled with stolen cash that led to the arrest of a Verona man.
The News-Leader reports 20-year-old Derek Shifflett turned himself in Monday night and was charged with robbery.
Augusta County sheriff's Sgt. David Lotts says Shifflett is suspected of posting a bogus car sales ad on Craiglist. After meeting with a prospective buyer on Monday, Shifflett allegedly took an envelope containing $12,000 in cash from the man's coat pocket and fled.
Lotts says a woman whose son is friends with Shifflett called police after her dog found the envelope underneath a bed and began playing with it.
It wasn't immediately known whether Shifflett had a lawyer. An Augusta County Jail shift commander was unavailable for comment Tuesday night.

Canadian designer delights Brass Ring guests
While it's true that only a handful of the 700 who attended this year's Brass Ring Luncheon were familiar with RozeMerie Cuevas or her Jacqueline Conoir Collection, it's also safe to say that after watching the show that she presented last week at the Marriott City Center, the Vancouver-based designer gained a ton of new fans.
Some, like Judy McNeil, thought Cuevas' designs were the best ever to grace a Brass Ring runway. Others, like Herminia Vigil and Sandy Alpert, were impressed with the cut and style. "I really like how they work for all body types," Alpert said. (Click here to read Denver Post fashion editor Suzanne Brown's Q & A with the designer and here to see pictures of the fashions and the people who made the day).
The Brass Ring Luncheon is a benefit for the Barbara Davis Center for Childhood Diabetes and is put on by The Guild of the Children's Diabetes Foundation at Denver. Diana Docktor was the chairwoman; Sheri McLaughlin and Judy Korstad were in charge of the silent auction and CBS4 anchorwoman Karen Leigh was mistress of ceremonies.
The late Florence Ruston had a key role in establishing the Brass Ring Luncheon as one of Denver's premiere fundraising events, and her daughter, Adrienne Ruston Fitzgibbons, was one of 14 Platinum table hostesses. The others were guild president Sharon Kamen; silent auction co-chair Judy Korstad, Gina Abou-Jaoude, Jamie Angelich, Sonia Chritton, Nancy Cowee, Sharon Whiton Gelt, Deidre Hunter, Ginny Messina, Sally Newcomb, Chris Petre, Stacy Robinson and Kathy Crapo, who will chair the event next year.
Fitzgibbons' daughters, Kimi Brown and Erinn Corson, joined her at the table, as did Corson's 9-week-old son, Walker. The Corson family has just returned to Colorado, after living in Florida and Connecticut for the past eight years. Erinn's husband, Dr. Tom Corson, recently accepted a position at McKee Medical Center in Longmont. Kimi, meanwhile, is the new private dining director at Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar in Englewood.
Judy McNeil, The Guild's president-elect, and her husband, Charlie, were Angel sponsors of the event and were rewarded with a foot-of-the-runway table to share with family and friends. The McNeils were fresh from a trip to London to see the Broncos play the San Francisco 49ers; they'd purchased the overseas adventure at the Western Fantasy patron party that was held at Neiman Macus in mid-September.
Also back from a trip abroad: Debi Tepper, who'd traveled to Greece in October with her husband, Jerry.
Lunch — tomato bisque, macadamia-crusted chicken and chocolate "sushi" — was enjoyed at tables centered with stunning arrangements of pale pink roses; gift bags were stuffed with discount coupons, chocolates and single-serving bags of Popchips.
Several of the women who have chaired previous editions of Brass Ring were there. We spotted Jamie Angelich, Jill Behr, Lisa Corley, Vivian Guzofsky, Helen Hanks, Gail Johnson, Carol Karsh, Cheri Meagher and Gretchen Pope. Past presidents of The Guild were out in force, too, including Nancy Cowee, Helenn Franzgrote, Marty Jensen, Sally Frerichs, Dr. Bonita Carson, Margy Epke, Chris Foster and Amy Davis.
Frieda Eisenbarth, whose husband, Dr. George Eisenbarth, is executive director of the Barbara Davis Center, was there, too, along with such faithful supporters as Patty Jenkins, Essie Perlmutter, Nancy Lockspeiser, Diane Smethills, Sally Davidson-Marovich, Wendy Glazer, Cindi Burge, Margot Gilbert Frank, Kristina Davidson, Gayle Novak, Lyn Schaffer, Pat Crofts, Diana Armstrong, Melly Kinnard, Bonnie Guzofsky, Suzy Love, Ilene Milstein, Caroline Karlin, Karen Possehl, Ginny Messina, Ryta Sondergard, Eunice Romano, Jan Chase, Maureen Barker, Sue Watters Provost, Judy Chiodo, Shelley Lucas, Dahlia Weinstein, Linda Keyser, Deborah Winward, Trisha Hood, Jaylene Smith, Linda Yip, Patty Lorie, Judi Wolf, Sue Palandri and Diana Docktor's husband, Dr. Paul Docktor, a retired orthopedic surgeon.

Piers Morgan had a helpful suggestion for Demi Moore after she asked her followers what her new Twitter name should be.
The TV host and journalist offered: "How about mrsmorgan?," to which Demi responded: "I think that one is taken!"
She was referring of course to his wife Celia, with whom he has a baby girl Elise.
Demi stepped back into the spotlight on Tuesday evening.
Dressed in a chic black ensemble with a cream blouse and statement jewellery, the actress attended a party in Beverly Hills in support of her friend Amanda de Cadenet.

ichael Vick tried. Lordy, how he tried. But not even Vick, impervious, evasive and the darndest freshman quarterback college football has witnessed in eons, could win the national championship for Virginia Tech on Tuesday night in the Sugar Bowl.
Too many athletes. Florida State simply had too many. Jeff Chaney and Ron Dugans. Travis Minor and Corey Simon. Most important, Peter Warrick, the incomparable receiver.
And the disgrace in that? None.
Just ask Florida State. The Hokies staggered the Seminoles for much of the second half before succumbing 46-29 in the highest-scoring Sugar Bowl ever.
Remember, this is an NCAA-certified dynasty we're talking about, a program that has finished among the nation's top four teams each of the past 13 seasons. And Tech absolutely belonged, rallying from a 21- point, second-quarter deficit to briefly take the lead at 29-28.
Vick didn't die when the Hokies fell behind. He danced. He turned the most doomed of plays into works of art. He sidestepped and outran defenders.
But Vick was one ace fighting a deck of aces. He absorbed more punishment than in any game this season, and the toll came in mistakes. He fumbled away a scoring chance on the Hokies' opening drive and committed a foolish intentional grounding penalty later in the first quarter.
Then, early in the fourth quarter, after Florida State had regained the lead at 36-29, Vick fumbled again, and Seminoles defensive back Sean Key recovered at Tech's 34-yard line, setting up a Sebastian Janikowski field goal.
At 39-29, there was no way Florida State was going to ruin the first perfect season in Bobby Bowden's hall of fame coaching career. This is Bowden's second national championship and his program's third appearance in the title game in four years.
But these were uncharted waters for Tech.
Think about the greatest sports stories in Virginia history: Richmond native Arthur Ashe winning the 1975 singles title at lily-white Wimbledon; Secretariat in 1973 becoming racing's first Triple Crown champion in 25 years; Sam Snead's remarkable golf career; the rise and fall of the Virginia Squires, the commonwealth's first - and only - major league franchise; the Sampson years at the University of Virginia.
This magical Virginia Tech season ranks among those sagas. We're talking about the state's largest university (approximately 25,000 students) playing the state's most popular sport. We're talking about a homegrown coach from Fancy Gap (Frank Beamer) guiding a team of predominantly homegrown talent.
Sixty-five Hokies are from Virginia, and they hail from all points - from Smithfield to Springfield, Ladysmith to Lynchburg, Blackstone to Burke, Roanoke to Richmond, Norfolk to Newport News, Alexandria to Appalachia.
Blanketing the state assures the Hokies loyalists in every nook and cranny, not only from alums and wealthy donors, but also from anonymous Harrys in Hampton and Freds in Fairfax who watch the games on television and want to keep up with the former high school stars from their area.
No, Hokies' football is not as valuable as the university's educational mission and technological advances. And yes, Beamer - like most college football coaches - is grossly overpaid with a minimum $500,000 annual compensation.
But Beamer, who concedes to being overpaid, makes a valid point when he recalls the wild scene that transpired at Lane Stadium on Nov. 26 after Tech defeated Boston College to complete its perfect regular season. Nothing else, Beamer says, could galvanize the university community like this football team has.
And he's right. Sad commentary on our priorities or not, a championship team in a marquee sport touches more folks than the College of Veterinary Medicine's new brucellosis vaccine or the Center for Transportation Research's "Smart Road" project.
Of course, much of this saga's appeal revolves around its novelty. The state has just two Division I-A programs, Virginia and Virginia Tech, and Tuesday was the first national title quest for either.
The novelty also prompted many of us in the media to doubt the Hokies this season. It just seemed incongruous to mention Virginia Tech in the same breath with Florida State, and so we asked questions.
Is the schedule too easy? Is Vick too young? Is the offensive line strong enough? Can Shayne Graham kick a game-winning field goal? Will the Bowl Championship Series computer deny Tech a spot in the Sugar Bowl?
Beamer and the Hokies did their best to ignore the questions and doubters. They prepared the same way each week, whether the opponent was James Madison or Miami.
And each week they won, often by astonishing margins. They avoided the inexplicable defeats to inferior teams that haunted them in past seasons.
They didn't trail in a game until Nov. 6 at West Virginia, and then only for 75 seconds as Graham's 44-yard field goal at the gun rescued them and catapulted Tech into the Sugar Bowl, where they made millions of more fans across the nation.

Many factors have led to the Euro Debt Crisis. First, the US economy remains sluggish, with unemployment rates hovering above 9.1% as of third quarter of 2011. Demand for goods and services remain at an all-time low.
Across the Atlantic, Iceland's entire banking system collapsed in 2008. The Icelandic recession then sparked a cascade of financial crises that would rock the economies of Ireland, Portugal and, most especially, Greece two years later.
The problem of these economies is that their debts have ballooned to such high levels, their governments couldn't even pay the interest, much less the principal. Credit default loomed as an inevitable bitter solution.
Sounding the alarm
Fortunately for Ireland, Portugal and Greece, they all belong to a formidable economic block known as the Eurozone. Soon after these countries' governments sounded the alarm, the EU and the IMF came to their aid with a bail-out package.
Ireland received as much as 85 billion euros to rescue its ailing banks.
Portugal's economy went on the verge of bankruptcy because of excessive government spending and risky debt creation. These events were further worsened by credit rating agencies' speculations, which downgraded Lisbon's rating overnight. The EU and the IMF shelled out 78 billion euros to bail Portugal out of this crisis.
Greek crisis
The case with Greece is much more complicated. Like Portugal, massive budget deficit and failing to pay its debts almost led to a credit default. Athens was given a bailout package amounting to 110 billion euros in 2010. In 2011, a second bailout package of 109 billion euros has been laid out.
The loans came with a heavy price. Greece must now adopt a number of harsh austerity measures to improve its market outlook. Job cuts and high taxes suddenly became the burden of every Greek. Despite all these, there is still no guarantee that Greece will not default in the end.
Ireland and Portugal are still reeling from their credit downgrade.
But there is a silver lining in all of these events.
Property prices: the silver lining
With many businesses closing shop and home rentals going down, property prices have dropped almost instantly. If there is ever a good opportunity for foreign investors to come in, now is the perfect time.
The price of one ritzy villa – complete with swimming pool, sauna, and private gym – in a prime residence area Portugal has been cut by as much as 57%. In fact, property in many areas of Europe has become so affordable, a London-based development and property search company has reported a ten-fold increase in property inquiries in Italy alone.
In Windsor, private equity investor David Hammond bought four properties in Portugal because the prices were so cheap and the properties in such good condition, he just couldn't resist. He added that he would have had to pay twice as much for the same property had he bought them before the recession.
This has become the trend all over Europe.
Where to buy
Of course, the great European bargain doesn't come without hassle. The governments of Greece, Portugal and Italy have either increased their property taxes or revised foreign ownership laws, in response to the real estate rush.
In Portugal, however, the process of owning a property has been streamlined to better meet the demands of a hungry market. The rules are fairly straightforward, and the fees are clearly listed down before a prospective buyer starts shopping for real estate.
General consensus among estate agents says that a Portugal property is the best value for money. Not only are they more affordable than those in other European countries, the properties are also often found in places with stunning beauty such as in the Silver Coast and in Algarve.

Tonight we're gonna butcher like it's 1799
This weekend I attended a two-day pig butchery workshop at Coggeshall Farm in Bristol, RI. The class was taught by Jonathan Kuester, who is knowledgeable about butchery in every decade from the 1780's through the 1930's. We learned a lot about the process from pig to plate in new America, plus the changes that made it different over time. Just about every piece of the pig was used from headcheese to tongue to blood to tenderloin, and speaking of, that was the best piece of tenderloin I have ever eaten.
The first day consisted of cleaning and eviscerating the pig. It was left to chill outside overnight, then was sectioned off into cuts on the second day.

Rainn Wilson, who plays Dwight Schrute on NBC's "The Office", spoke in Washington, D.C., last week to raise awareness of injustices toward fellow members of his Baha'i faith.
Rainn Wilson, who plays Dwight Schrute on NBC's "The Office", has been speaking out to raise awareness of injustices toward members of his Baha'i faith. Wilson spoke to CNN on May 9 about the "Five Years Too Many" campaign, which calls for the release of seven Baha'i volunteer leaders who have been held in an Iranian prison for the past five years. Their jail sentence is 20 years. "The charges against them are just preposterous," Wilson said in an interview on "The Lead with Jake Tapper." "It's like, 'spying for Israel,' and 'corruption unearthed.' This campaign of 'Five Years Too Many' is really to let people know, 'hey, there are Baha'is rotting in jail in a 20-year sentence in completely trumped up charges simply because they have a certain set of faith beliefs that run against the theocracy in Iran.'" Baha'is believe "the purpose of life is to know and worship God, to acquire virtues, to promote the oneness of humankind and to carry forward an ever-advancing civilization," according to bahai.us. Wilson said he is thankful for the peace he finds in his faith. "My faith grounds me and centers me and gives me focus and purpose, and I'm very grateful for that," he said. Wilson's interview discussing his Baha'i faith and his thoughts on finishing "The Office" is available on CNN's website. A video about Baha'i beliefs is available on the Baha'i Faith website.%3Cimg%20src%3D%22http%3A//beacon.deseretconnect.com/beacon.gif%3Fcid%3D78764%26pid%3D46%22%20/%3E

RVIA Outlines '10, '11 Shipment Projections
June 9, 2010 by Leanne Phillips · Comments Off on RVIA Outlines '10, '11 Shipment Projections
The recreation vehicle industry is on the mend with a wholesale shipment forecast that indicates growth of 39% to 230,300 units in 2010. Shipments, according to a new estimate, are expected to grow to 249,700 units in 2011.
Robert M. "Mac" Bryan, vice president of administration for the Recreation Vehicle Industry Association (RVIA), delivered the new forecast to those attending RVIA's Annual Membership Luncheon today (June (9) during RVIA Committee Week at the Century Center in South Bend, Ind.
University of Michigan economist Richard Curtin, who prepares shipment estimates for RVIA, had to cancel his keynote speach for personal reasons.
Bryan said the RV industry has recovered from the low 2009 shipment totals of 165,700 units as he presented Curtin's methodology for measuring and forecasting within the RV market. Many factors are considered including major influences such as consumer confidence, buying conditions, wages and employment, credit availability and wealth effect.
Consumer confidence and buying conditions are improving, while wages and employment will be a slow to improve and credit standards continue to be more strict, Bryan explained.
On the positive side, he said, consumer demand remains strong. "Nothing can diminish this," he said. "There is a very positive outlook demographically."
Bryan contended Curtin's forecasts, initally made 15 months into the future, are fairly accurate. Curtin also looks at RV shipments compared to new private housing starts, car and light-truck sales, and retail consumer sales — all of which have shown an increase in 2010.
"These are good indicators," Bryan said.
Bryan pointed out that the initial surge in this year's shipments indicates the need for dealers to ramp up low inventory levels to meet demand.
The forecast for a smaller increase in 2011 reflects the lingering effects of the recession, Bryan said.
"While the RV market has quickly recovered in past recessions, the current journey will be longer and the road will not be as smooth or as straight as in the past," Bryan said.
According to Curtin's forecast, three main areas are expected to affect the pace of recovery in RV sales — the financial health of consumers, changes in fiscal and monetary policies, and continued volatility in financial markets.
Here's a breakdown of Curtin's most recent estimate:
- Total RV shipments — A 39% increase to 230,300 units and, in 2011, an 8% increase totaling 249,700 units.
- Travel trailers — 140,600 units in 2010 and 151,900 in 2011.
- Fifth-wheels — A 36% increase in 2010 and a 9% increase in 2011.
- Folding camping trailers — A 20% increase in 2010 and a 9% increase in 2011.
- Truck campers — A 26% hike in 2010 and a 17% increase in 2011.
- Class A motorhomes — A 90% spike in 2010 and an 11% increase in 2011.
- Class B motorhomes — A 33% increase in 2010 and a 13% increase in 2011.
- Class C motorhomes — A 61% hike in 2010 and a 6% increase in 2011.

On the list this week: Rowan, American Dream, Tesla and more.
Each week in FaceTime, NJBIZ editors approximate Chris Christie's mood and facial expressions based on the news.
The Triple Five settlement with the Giants and Jets involves "infrastructure improvements and the implementation of traffic and parking management" for the sports complex. It also means thousands of jobs for construction workers. Christie the governor looks good. It remains to be seen if the deal helps Christie the candidate.
Simply put, the school gets it. The announcement that the Rowan University Foundation, the school's fundraising arm, has committed $5 million toward establishing a new venture capital fund aimed at financing research initiatives shows the school understands how colleges will operate in the future.
Ralph Zucker
Somerset Development broke ground last week with NJ Transit on the new train station that will be the centerpiece of his 70-acre redevelopment project in Wood-Ridge, known as Wesmont Station. Zucker has been at this project for more than a decade, and getting the state to open a new station is no easy task. Also, kudos to NJ Transit for engaging in the private-public partnership — another way for the state to help the business community.
American Dream project
The elephant in the room has left the building. A settlement that ends with the Giants and Jets lifting their opposition to Triple Five's plan is a win for the developer as it can move forward on plans to reboot the failed Xanadu project as American Dream.
The Canning family
The novelty and voyeurism surrounding Rachel Canning's lawsuit against her parents will wane. Hopefully by the time you are reading this. But the impact will last a lifetime. No one will look at the parents the same way again, and the power of the Internet will connect this moment to Rachel for decades to come. And it's not exactly a feather in the cap for the legal profession.
It seems clear to anyone that new rules and regulations written by the Motor Vehicle Commission were done specifically in an attempt to halt Tesla from selling its cars here. That's right, restricting commerce to satisfy special interests. That's not the way it's supposed to work.
Really, name-calling? In an attempt to ban former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice from speaking at the university's graduation ceremonies, she was called a 'war criminal' because of the Iraqi war. And here we thought colleges were supposed to be accepting of all viewpoints and backgrounds? And support those involved in military action. Hats off to President Barchi for backing her.

Medical Record
From MeritBadgeDotOrg
The Boy Scouts of America recommends that Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Varsity Scouts, Venturers and adult leaders have an annual medical evaluation by a certified and licensed health-care provider using the Annual Health and Medical Record. Also see the BSA Medical Form FAQ.
"Everyone should begin using the Annual Health and Medical Record immediately. The existing stock of Class 1, 2, and 3 forms can continue to be used while supplies last in 2009. The only supported form effective January 1, 2010, is the Annual Health and Medical Record. Its use will be mandatory for the 2010 National Scout Jamboree." - BSA Medical Form FAQ
Annual Health and Medical Record #34605
- Formerly called the BSA Medical Exam Form (Class 1, 2 and 3).
- Also know as the: Physical, Medical Exam, Physical Exam, Informed Consent, Hold Harmless, etc.
- Part A: General Information
- Part B: Physical Examination
- Part C: Informed Consent and Hold Harmless/Release Agreement
- Talent Release Form
The Annual Health and Medical Record [Prints on single 8.5 x 11 sheets] [Prints on 11 x 17 sheets] - The one health and medical record for your use. Replaces former Class 1, 2, and 3 forms, which will be phased out in 2009. The use of the new form, No. 34605, will be required effective January 1, 2010, as well as for the 2010 National Scout Jamboree. - Scouting Safety Forms
|The following text if from the cover page of the Annual Health and Medical Record unless noted otherwise.
Medical Information
The Boy Scouts of America recommends that all youth and adult members have annual medical evaluations by a certified and licensed health-care provider. In an effort to provide better care to those who may become ill or injured and to provide youth members and adult leaders a better understanding of their own physical capabilities, the Boy Scouts of America has established minimum standards for providing medical information prior to participating in various activities. Those standards are offered in one three-part medical form. Note that unit leaders must always protect the privacy of unit participants by protecting their medical information.
Parts A and C are to be completed annually by all BSA unit members. Both parts are required for all events that do not exceed 72 consecutive hours, where the level of activity is similar to that normally expended at home or at school, such as day camp, day hikes, swimming parties, or an overnight camp, and where medical care is readily available. Medical information required includes a current health history and list of medications. Part C also includes the parental informed consent and hold harmless/release agreement (with an area for notarization if required by your state) as well as a talent release statement. Adult unit leaders should review participants' health histories and become knowledgeable about the medical needs of the youth members in their unit. This form is to be filled out by participants and parents or guardians and kept on file for easy reference.
Part B is required with parts A and C for any event that exceeds 72 consecutive hours, a Boy Scout Resident Camp or Cub Scout Resident Camp setting, or when the nature of the activity is strenuous and demanding, such as service projects, work weekends, or high-adventure treks. It is to be completed and signed by a certified and licensed health-care provider—physician (MD, DO), nurse practitioner, or physician's assistant as appropriate for your state. The level of activity ranges from what is normally expended at home or at school to strenuous activity such as hiking and backpacking. Other examples include tour camping, jamborees, and Wood Badge training courses.
It is important to note that the height/weight chart must be strictly adhered to if the event will take the unit beyond a radius wherein emergency evacuation is more than 30 minutes by ground transportation, such as backpacking trips, high-adventure activities, and conservation projects in remote areas.
Risk Factors
Based on the vast experience of the medical community, the BSA has identified that the following risk factors may define your participation in various outdoor adventures.
- Excessive body weight
- Heart disease
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Diabetes
- Seizures
- Lack of appropriate immunizations
- Asthma
- Sleep disorders
- Allergies/anaphylaxis
- Muscular/skeletal injuries
- Psychiatric/psychological and emotional difficulties
For more information on medical risk factors, visit Scouting Safely on www.scouting.org.
The taking of prescription medication is the responsibility of the individual taking the medication and/or that individual's parent or guardian. A leader, after obtaining all the necessary information, can agree to accept the responsibility of making sure a youth takes the necessary medication at the appropriate time, but BSA does not mandate or necessarily encourage the leader to do so. Also, if state laws are more limiting, they must be followed.
Height and Weight
"Individuals desiring to participate in any high-adventure activity or events in which emergency evacuation would take longer than 30 minutes by ground transportation will not be permitted to do so if they exceed the weight limit as documented at the bottom of this page. Enforcing the height/weight limit is strongly encouraged for all other events, but it is not mandatory." - #34605 Part B

On my trip to Sipadan a number of years ago one of my major takeaway impressions of the area was simply one thing - human overpopulation relative to the resources available and all the consequences thereof. I heard and saw the effects of dynamite fishing all over the area, saw trash disposal directly into the water both from the rig off Mabul and the boat villages(I have a picture of Mauricio Handler getting covered in stool from above), rows and rows of boat people showing up all the time with every possible type of reef fish for sale etc, etc. It's so easy for everyone to blame everyone else, big oil, corporations, etc, etc, but honestly every single person posting on this forum probably fits into the top 5% or less of largest consumers of planetary resources. There is no one who has come up with a viable alternative to fossil fuels for example that can provide similar efficiencies, and without destroying other resources like battery materials, to provide for growing populations all aspiring to be middle class at least, and wealthy at best. It really only comes down to one thing on a planetary scale, too many people for too few resources - irrespective of who controls the resources it's still the rest of us who consume them. The planet simply cannot support so many people, particularly if every one of those people wants to live beyond a subsistence level. So the only solution is fewer people. And there are two ways to accomplish that - stop reproducing and suicide or killing people beyond a certain age ala Soylent Green, say 60. Population control by birth control alone creates distortions of age groups which is in itself unsustainable. So suicide or killing older people is just as important for serious population control and balance. I turn 60 next year and I'm not volunteering for suicide, and if anyone comes near my house to get me, I have a gun.

The latest stars to grace AMC aren't dramatic anti-heroes like Don Draper or Walter White. Instead, it's KISS bassist Gene Simmons and guitarist Paul Stanley. The two rockers star in the network's new reality series "4th and Loud," which follows the trials and tribulations of the Arena Football League's newest expansion team, the L.A. Kiss.
Simmons and Stanley are co-owners and like everything that exists in the KISS world, they're trying to take the band's iconic brand into uncharted territory. And while it would be easy to imagine a show that follows B-level football players running around in KISS makeup, it's not that at all. Simmons and Stanley strut their swaggering selves around, but "4th and Loud" is more about football hopefuls trying to make it at the professional level, even if the NFL doesn't want them.
Unlike the KISS philosophy, which seeks to brand the band as wide and far as possible (after all, they have their own line of condoms and caskets), the players aren't in it for the money – they love the sport and are holding on to the dreams of their youth before choosing different career paths. Speakeasy recently talked with Simmons about "4th and Loud," the ups and downs of life as a football team owner, the Washington Redskins name controversy, and Donald Sterling. An edited transcript follows.
Los Angeles hasn't had a football team in a long time. What was game plan to survive?
Lean and mean works. The NFL means well and they have a terrific product, but it takes billions to launch something. You have to buy buildings, accouterments and other big words. We don't have to do squat. We can get Navy Seals and sink a destroyer all by ourselves. We bring new fans, [the league] has their fans, we can access their fans, one and one equals three in this case. But we were delusional. Of course that's our self-imposed mandate, to be delusional and reach for the stars. You're not gonna touch the stars, but you have to reach for them nonetheless. And we hit the ground with hiring our coach, who had never lost a single season in his entire career. Well, he just lost his first one, OK. But he didn't have a fair pick of the players – all the best guys were picked up by the other teams. Our point of view with this show was to just show it all.
Sometimes it gets personal. Remember you're up close. And we made sure that any of our fans … look, they threw caution into the wind, they bought tickets, they came to see a team that had never played before. That's the loyalty based on the pop culture sugarcoating, I understand that. But it was our responsibility to give a no-holds barred experience. That meant, when the ball was on the ground, huddling for the next play – we'd give them entertainment. We had dancers hanging from the ceilings in cages, we had fireworks, we had extreme biking guys ..anything and everything that a KISS show has, we stick in there.
It's apparent in the first episode that the KISS brand was not going to infiltrate in an over the top way.
It's gotta be real football. Initially, there was some comments from the peanut gallery like "Oh, it's called LA Kiss, we know exactly what it's going to be." No you don't. We know what to do, when less is more. When food is in front of you and it's plenty spicy, the last thing you want to do is add salt and pepper.
Are KISS fans sports fans?
We want new fans. Sports fans will take care of themselves. This is family entertainment. We want you to bring your kids to their first sports experience. As soon as the season ended, 40% of our season ticket holders re-upped right away. They love it. "4th and Loud" was not my take for the title of the show; I wanted to call it "L.A. Kiss." A brand is a brand is a brand. But "4th and Loud" is the point of view that AMC had, and perhaps rightfully so, is lets skew it as football. And perhaps they're right. When you tune in, you're going to see real stuff. Some of it gets ugly, some of it heartwarming.
KISS sold a lot of records and played huge shows. But in a lot of ways, the band members have been underdogs and so are the players in the AFL. Can you talk about that connection?
This is the thing: They have nothing to lose and everything to win. They have a lot to prove, to themselves, to the team and the fans. The tragedy of losing that first season…guys were crying. They don't look at this as a job. [Pauses.] That means something. I paused a bit because it affects me too. Guys are crying like they're a 12-year-old kid. It breaks your heart. It says this means more than my salary, it means more than my branding [deal] for some shaving cream – they want to win.
When you met the other AFL owners in the pitch meeting, did they immediately take you seriously?
Yeah. We immediately got up, gave a speech, and said "Look, we never lose. We're gonna make you proud, we're gonna be your Tiger Woods. If you let us be a member of your family, we're going to take AFL to heights it's never seen before, immediately." So the AFL is thrilled. They're getting more attention than ever. Whenever a team plays us, boom! They get that extra lift. On their own, respectfully, they wouldn't get the time of day.
How much does it cost to get a team up and running?
It sounds like a few hundred thousand dollars and it winds up being a few million.
Did you make back what you put into it on the first season?
Oh, I own the money bag logo – the dollar sign with the bag. Does that answer your question?
Yeah. Ultimately, the team struggled in the first season, going 3-15. What happened?
We don't have the best players. We don't. They're just not the top of the pop. But they have the heart of a lion. In the middle of the season, we had to get rid of our quarterback. It's like the Olympics – you do your best and if you don't make it, you're out.
What do you think of the Washington Redskins name-change controversy?
Well, look. There's sports, there's business and then there are people. As a Jew, I wouldn't be thrilled as "The Kikes." And if you're black, you wouldn't be thrilled with a football team called "The Blacks." I could use a worse word. Because "Redskins" was what the white man called them. So I understand if you're a sports fan and if you're white, you go "Hey, what's the problem? We have a long history." But if you're an Indian, think about it. White dudes don't have to worry about that stuff because [they] were always the majority in imperialist countries of the world. "Cracker" means nothing to white people. They had all the money and the power.
If people are talking about your brand as being racist, is that bad for business?
Bad for business? I don't know. But whether or not it's bad for business or not, you've got to make the change. It was launched at a time when white people weren't sensitive to the idea that you're actually insulting an entire race of people.
Did you follow the Don Sterling story?
I'm on the side of Don Sterling.
You're on the side of him?
I'm on Mel Gibson's side, Don Sterling's side and anybody who has a racist or an expletive rant privately. The difference between this guy, who's heinous of course, or anybody else is that they were caught. Everybody [says] jokes that are off- color, or when they're drunk. The difference between Sterling and everyone else is that he was caught on camera, by the way, without his approval. He was ambushed. I think he should have done penance and paid a fine. Here's what's going to happen. They're going to go after Sterling and he's going to put a few million dollars out there, because he can afford it – and he's going to ask the paparazzi out there to find videos of all the other team members talking trash and racist rants. And then it's open season. And if, because you say an off color joke or make a racist rant privately, that causes you to lose a job – nobody would have a job! Black people do it, Jews do it, Christians do it – everybody does it! It's called America. Free speech. Even if free speech insults other people. Privately. Publicly, that's different. I'm on the side of free speech in the privacy of your own home or privacy of the situation. Big brother has finally crawled in bed with us.
Social media has made people unaware of boundaries.
Well, laws have to catch up. This stuff has to catch up with technology. By the way, I don't wait. When some of these kids shut down my site, I call my F.B.I. friends and they're spending time, 15 years in jail. I go after them.
You have hackers hitting KISS sites?
Everybody has hackers. You may not know it, but you have it. And it's not just hackers, people trying to get your ID numbers and your bank accounts – it's lawless. There's no laws about that.
But you take care of that?
Oh, yeah. Visit Langley. Make friends.
Has KISS thought about a follow-up to [2012's] "Monster"?
Oh sure. We just need time. We have a restaurant chain called Rock & Brews, which is opening all over the world. We got the football team. We got the KISS Golf course, the KISS limo service. KISS World is around the corner – I don't want to tell you what that is yet.

Description: Bill Burke, who was honored as a journeyman smith June 2003, is best known for creating some of the best hunters that can be found anywhere. Recently, he put his attentions to creating a small number of chef's knives. The results are exceptional.
Like his hunting knives, this santoku was pre-tested for edge flex and cutting ability before assembly. The santoku is the traditional Japanese chef's knife. This comfortable design is a fantastic multipurpose chopper. The Santoku style has quickly become the new favorite for chefs in the West.
The heat treatment followed the formulas developed by Ed Fowler, Bill's teacher, and has been proven to create some of the sharpest and most long lasting edges found anywhere.
A differential heat treatment is clearly visible in the differential hardness line approximately three quarters up the blade. This results in a soft, supportive spine and an extremely hard, long lasting edge. The bolster is integral -- a technique that, while common in production knives, is very rare in handmade knives due to the difficulty of implementation. The handle is formed from African blackwood -- one of the hardest woods found anywhere and is set with decorative mosaic pins. The knife has perfect balance and feels exceptional in the hand.

1. Re: panels folding outAndrew Yoole Apr 22, 2012 7:05 AM (in response to tallula984)
Your link results in an error for me.
The secret to fold-out animation is careful management of anchor points and parenting. Wherever an element needs to pivot, it's anchor should be at the pivot point. Then, work backwards and adjust the rotation of your layers from fully extended to fully folded. Set each layer as a child to be parented with each layer that will fold before it.
2. Re: panels folding outtallula984 Apr 22, 2012 7:11 AM (in response to Andrew Yoole)
so i'll to just keep duplicating the image and flipping it individually?
i hoped there would be a cheat way
i tried using paths like on the tutorial, starting from my final image of loads of panels but the path just revealed the next panel instead of flipping it
3. Re: panels folding outMylenium Apr 22, 2012 7:46 AM (in response to tallula984)
Depends on the number of panels, I guess, but I really do think that this is one of the simpler things in the life of a graphics artist down to the point of being ridiculously trivial. Even if there are 20 panels in the comp, it's easy enough to animate them by hand and if you have the wits, you could facilitate this with expressions. For the latter, Trapcode Echospace could probably do it easily. And then of course there's also Card Dance... So many possibilities. If you get my meaning: Instead of wasting time looking for shortcuts, just start working on it. It's much less complicated and less daunting than it looks.

DEERFIELD BEACH, Fla. - The wife of a man who was found dead in Deerfield Beach is now speaking out, saying the two were going to celebrate their 25th anniversary together.
"In a second we lost him. Someone you had the day before, the very next day is gone and without an explanation," said Karen Harper. "It is very difficult."
In the early morning hours of October 17th, Jay Harper, Karen's husband, was found floating in the Atlantic Ocean. Police said they suspect foul play.
"Something happened to him and we don't know what happened to him. We really need people," said Karen. "If anybody (has) heard anything or saw anything, help out the police. You lost your husband or you lost your dad. You know, what happened? To say 'don't know' is very unsettling for us."
Police said Jay went to the beach with a woman between midnight and 2 am. Two hours later, he was found dead.
Police said they have interviewed the woman Jay had been with, and she is not a suspect in the case.
A witness remembers seeing a suspicious man walking along the beach, and that is the best lead police said they have at the moment.
BSO released a sketch today of a man they believe may have information about the case.
RELATED: BSO releases sketch of suspect
Jay's family says they are trying to cope with the tragedy.
"He coached us and went to everything he could," said Nick Harper, Jay's son. "I mean, he was gone most of the time, but he was there every weekend watching the game."
Jay's daughter, Megan Harper, said the situation is a shock to her because she said she is daddy's little girl.
Police said they are still continuing to investigate this case.

Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough
|Uncle Vlad
Head over to the taxi office and find Roman, drinking by himself. You know that when that's going on, something must really be wrong. It appears that Roman saw Vlad's car outside of Mallorie's place the other day, and suspects that something is going on between the two of them. What's more, Niko appears to have had suspicions of his own, setting him up for some more of Roman's ire. Ultimately, Niko decides to do something about it, and the two men scramble outside to Roman's cab.
Once in the cab, follow the brief route on your HUD that the GPS lays out for you. It will bring you to a bar called Comrades Bar, a Russian hangout. Roman will continuously try to talk you down from doing anything stupid, but you know Niko won't listen to him! Upon your arrival, Niko busts in through the door and Roman follows. Roman again tries to diffuse the situation but Vlad talks a big game, and as he walks away, he sticks some of his henchmen on you. You know what you have to do.
Dealing with these two punks can be a bit of a pain if you aren't armed with a firearm. If you aren't, try using a knife (or your fists) to take one out at a time. If you have a firearm, however, than this fight will be much, much easier. Simply train your pistol (for instance) on one of the foes, fire away, and then do the same to the other one. Once both are slain, you'll get an on-screen prompt letting you know that Vlad is making his getaway. It's time to pursue him!

The many flavors of Madrid at Suffolk University
Our student body represents more than 25 different nationalities -extending from Europe, Asia and Africa to the Americas- reflecting Suffolk's global perspective. We encourage the sharing of ideas, the exchange of unique perspectives, and full participation in the international experience.
The Madrid Campus
Rising above the intersection of Avenida del Valle and Isaac Peral, our modern brick building blends easily into the quiet residential neighborhood.
What you'll see
Step inside, and you'll find something different going on.
- modern, fully equipped classrooms
- a library with high-speed internet connections to Suffolk's extensive library and databases in Boston
- the most advanced computer systems of any American university in Madrid
And whether it's an engaging conversation in the reading room or a quiet chat in the comfort of a nearby garden, there's always something going on.
What you'll experience
Meet our students
We enroll about 175 students. They come from the European Union, including Spain. Many come from the US, while others come from Asia and Africa.
Step inside, and you'll feel the energy and excitement of our students' intellectual curiosity. They are open to re-discovering their place in the world by exploring new cultures, and we encourage the sharing of international perspectives and ideas.
Enjoy our student services
Our staff at Suffolk University Madrid Campus begins taking care of students from the time they begin the application procedure, and follows them closely through the completion of their studies.
We're available to provide information and assistance to students before they leave home. On arrival day, we greet students at the airport. We provide both academic and non-academic orientations to prepare them for their educational experience in Spain. And all students have active, knowledgeable academic advisors.
Join our community
Beyond formal academics and excursions, we invite students to participate in our active student government; in theater, film, and music activities, as well as various social gatherings that bring the entire academic community together. At the same time, our relationship with neighboring CEU San Pablo - one of Europe's leading universities - provides a broad range of cultural activities, social gatherings, and athletics.
To learn about campus security, click here.
Learning abroad as it was meant to be
The Suffolk University Madrid Campus (SUMC) stands in a quiet residential section of the university quarter, within walking distance to many of the city's universities, libraries and research institutes. Quick access to public transportation makes it easy for our students to take in all the fine museums, the theatre and vibrant culture of this major European capital.
As the only non-sectarian American university in Madrid, we welcome the broadest range of students. We have both American accreditation and official Spanish authorization.
For many, it is the experience of a lifetime.

After relying on third parties for several years - Internet Explorer, Netscape - Apple decided that it was time to take matters into its own hands. It was time Apple created its own browser (again). And so, Safari was born, and released unto the world ten years ago. These past few weeks, Don Melton, the project lead for Safari and WebKit, has been sharing a lot of interesting stories about the origins and development of Apple's browser.

IMO, proprietary tools are evil. using them encourages vendors to diverge from open standards and hurts everyone, and in the long-term. demand standards and just say "no" to non-standards, especially when venors claim that they're supra-standard features. if we as computer people have learned anything at all from our own history, it is that open standards drive everything in the end.

It seemed Cesar Millan had been on top of the world, but then it all came crashing down.
In 2010, the trainer and television personality known as the Dog Whisperer was working with celebrity clients, had a hit show and was becoming an international advocate for bully breeds.
Millan, 43, was dealt his first loss when Daddy, the 16-year-old pit bull who had been Millan's best example of a "calm, submissive" dog, died in February.
Then, in June of that year, Millan learned that his wife of 16 years, Ilusion Millan, had filed for divorce.
"I was at the lowest level I had ever been emotionally and psychologically," Millan wrote on his blog in August of this year.
So low, in fact, that he attempted suicide, a revelation Millan makes in Cesar Millan: The Real Story, a documentary airing on Nat Geo Wild on Nov. 25.
"Daddy was my Tibet, my Himalaya, my Gouda, my Buddha, my source of calmness," Millan tells the Associated Press.
After surviving the overdose, Millan opted for work, exercise and affection over antidepressants. His recovery progressed further when he met Jahira Dar, a woman Millan calls "the one."
He plans to propose soon. "I am a traditional guy, so I like to do the whole parent thing," Millan said. "I know they are going to say yes, but I like the whole Cinderella story."
