Sorry guys... I hated to be the bearer of bad news when posting this on the December 9th. I will let you know if what happens from here.

NJBones... you are most likely correct. Check out the increase in short interest on Sirius XM
Hey Wolf man... are you averaging down here? I know some guys are. I have not averaged down yet. I am contemplating if I will be or not.
Most of the shares I bought today and yesterday replace shares that I sold .20-.25 higher or maybe more.
For instance, the 3.55's I bought today were from an order placed a month ago after selling around 3.80. Every time I sell a lot, I place a buy for a lot less....
I may not catch the bottom but buying back cheaper is an inevitable gain as long as the story is still in tact.
You are doing good. My average price is $3.73 at the moment. Was waiting to see if closed the $3.48-$3.50 gap but today made me a little nervous. I don't know if this is more year end selling and profit taking or what. I was hoping for a santa's rally but the guys are saying that will start next week. The markets usually do well going into the new year then we have a sell off.
If we drop at all tomorrow it will put us in oversold territory.
I always buy that.
But my situation is different than most folks being that I have almost 300k shares ranging from .13 and have made $000,000.00 on this stock without ever selling at a loss. I have some room to take risks and make a mistake.
Does anyone really think Malone is gonna just sit there and watch all his money go up in smoke, not only is this the perfect buying opportunity for us, but also very good SXM. From what I can tell they have already spent approx. $160 million outa 500 on the repurchase plan, the charts don't show this but the fundamentals do, I say a major volume day extremely soon, and not to the down side.
Quote "Sirius may be required to accelerate the purchase and sale of the shares to be purchased on the next scheduled repurchase date if Sirius is able to draw upon its existing senior credit facility an amount that would be sufficient to pay the repurchase price of the shares to be purchased on such repurchase date and the next scheduled repurchase date."
Other than that, bought $3 worth of lottery tickets tonight to see where my luck was, won $5:D,
Phot is the new leader of the green stocks, them and MJNA exchanged places today, sure glad I sold my Mjna and put it in Phot the other week ago. They got an executive from Microsoft and Yahoo to be their new Pres., and we got a new marketing executive that answers directly to Meyers to help increase subscribers at SXM that has done alot of work in television advertising and has previously worked for DirectTV, so hopefully we'll start having some cool commercials and some mass marketing coming soon.
What you are saying makes a lot of sense. I think it's a combination of profit taking and shorts building a position. You can see the short interest increased over 11% from Oct-Nov. It could be increasing in December too. Gives Malone the opportunity to buy back shares at a cheaper price too. Doesn't buying back shares essentially reduce the float? I think so...

HOUSTON, Dec. 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Apache Corporation (NYSE, Nasdaq: APA) today announced that its subsidiary Apache Canada Ltd. has signed a broad agreement with Chevron Canada Limited to build and operate the Kitimat LNG project and develop world-class shale gas resources at the Liard and Horn River basins in British Columbia, Canada.
Chevron Canada, a subsidiary of Chevron Corp (NYSE: CVX), and Apache Canada each will become a 50 percent owner of the Kitimat LNG plant, the Pacific Trail Pipeline and 644,000 gross undeveloped acres in the Horn River and Liard basins. Chevron Canada will operate the LNG plant, which will be located on the northern British Columbia coast, and the pipeline; Apache Canada will operate the upstream assets.
"This agreement is a milestone for two principal reasons: Chevron is the premier LNG developer in the world today with longstanding relationships in key Asian markets, and the new structure will enable Apache to unlock the tremendous potential at Liard, one of the most prolific shale gas basins in North America," said G. Steven Farris, Apache's chairman and chief executive officer.
"With experience developing LNG projects, marketing expertise and financial wherewithal, Chevron is the preferred coventurer to join Kitimat LNG," Farris said. "Apache has a proven record in finding and developing shale gas resources in Canada and is the logical operator for the upstream elements of the joint venture.
"We are pleased to expand our relationship with Chevron that began with the Wheatstone LNG project now under construction in Western Australia," Farris said. "Kitimat LNG is the first mover among British Columbia LNG projects, and we expect the momentum of this project will accelerate with this new joint venture."
Chevron is the operator and led marketing efforts at Wheatstone, a two-train plant with capacity of 8.9 million tons of LNG per annum that is expected to commence operations in 2016. Chevron also operates the Gorgon LNG project in Australia and LNG Angola.
Encana and EOG Resources – currently 30 percent non-operating partners in Kitimat LNG and Pacific Trail Pipeline – will sell their interests to Chevron and exit the venture. As part of the transaction with Chevron, Apache will increase its ownership of the plant and pipeline to 50 percent from 40 percent.
Apache, an experienced producer of unconventional oil and gas resources, will operate the new joint venture's development of 220,000 gross acres in the Horn River Basin and 424,000 gross acres in the Liard Basin. Chevron will purchase a 50 percent interest in undeveloped upstream assets in the Liard Basin from Apache and other Horn River assets from Encana, EOG and Apache.
"At Liard and Horn River, we have built substantial positions in two of the most prolific shale gas plays in North America, with more than 50 trillion cubic feet of resource potential," Farris said.
In June, Apache announced long-term test results from three wells at Liard, including the D-34-K well, which was drilled to a vertical depth of 12,600 feet with a 2,900-foot lateral and a six-stage hydraulic fracturing completion. The 30-day initial production rate averaged 21.3 million cubic feet of gas per day, or 3.6 MMcf per day per frac stage. The ultimate recovery from the D-34-K well is estimated to be 18 billion cubic feet of gas. "We believe this is the most prolific shale gas resource test in the world," Farris said.

February 22, 2004 • Posted By Shaun Lyon
Mad Norwegian has confirmed that Mags L. Halliday ("History 101") will write the fourth Faction Paradox novel, due out in December 2004. Warring States takes place in China, 1900, and concerns Cousin Octavia (the Faction Paradox member responsible for the fall of the Thirteen-Day Republic, as told in The Book of the War ). Meanwhile, the second book, Of the City of the Saved by Philip Purser-Hallard is now due out in late April, delayed a month due to production schedules. The cover blurb for the book (based on the cult favorites created in the BBC Eighth Doctor novel series) is as follows: "We all remember Resurrection Day. Even now, three centuries later, we cannot forget that awakening: our bewilderment, our terror and our joy. Each of us had experienced death, imagining ourselves bound for oblivion, Heaven or Nirvana, according to taste. Instead, we found, each member of the many human species û from tool-wielding australopithecines to posthuman philosopher-gods û had been harvested, gathered here by the FoundersÆ unfathomable technologies. Reborn in our countless immortal bodies, we were given the freedom of the City of the Saved. A single conurbation as broad as a spiral galaxy, she has been our sanctuary from the ravages of the War. That monstrous conflict between inhuman cultures cannot touch us here: we live our afterlives beyond the end of time, in perfect safety. We may be certain, therefore, that these rumours of a murder (the brutal stabbing of a City Councillor, no less!) are nothing more than lurid fabrications. The supposition that the murder weapon is missing, or that it could have been û as hysterical conjecture has claimed û a "potent weapon", capable of injuring a Citizen within the haven of the City, is equally absurd. The idea that a guerrilla war has already begun in one of our less harmonious enclaves need not be dignified with refutation. Please go about your business, Citizens, as normal. We are perfectly safe, here in the City. Humanity has never been safer." Also, author Lars Pearson will return with a fourth installment of his I, Who series later in the year; "I, Who 4" is scheduled for October 2004 release, co-written with Arnold T. Blumberg this time, and will again cover the BBC Doctor Who novels and Big Finish audios as well as the various anthologies recently published. Finally, the second edition of A History of the Universe by Lance Parkin has been moved up to November 2004 instead of December.

When Helen Zhao immigrated to Canada from China in 1995, she knew that eventually she'd like to work for herself.
But her Canadian business skills were lacking, so Zhao took work where she could -in restaurants, as a house cleaner and, after taking a course at the British Columbia Institute of Technology, as a bookkeeper with a local computer company.
But Zhao's job with the computer company disappeared a few years later and she started collecting employment insurance.
Then her case worker suggested she consider a unique program offered for unemployed Canadians by the immigrant services organization SUCCESS to help them become self-employed.
Zhao jumped at the opportunity, took the training and today owns Omega Trading Group, an import-export company that's the exclusive agent for the Chinese beer Zhujiang, which is distributed by Omega across Canada along with restaurant supplies from China.
Sales of Zhujiang Beer in Canada, she added, are growing by 15 to 20 per cent a year, and the brand is now in all major Canadian cities.
"I always wanted to start a small business," Zhao said in an interview. "I was always looking for the opportunity, but opportunities weren't available. My language skills were a problem and I needed Canadian business skills."
When she signed on with the SUCCESS self-employment program, Zhao came up with a personal business plan - mandatory for all participants.
The program, which involves full-time, 35-hour workshops for eight weeks followed by intensive mentoring and coaching for 40 weeks, turned out to be just what Zhao needed.
"They teach you about Canada's market, accounting skills, time management," said Zhao. "And they taught us how to get a business licence. I had no idea, and it was very detailed.
"But the most valuable thing they gave me was the strength and confidence that allowed me to go for it. If I needed help, they were always there for me."
Program manager Gary Bizzo, who is also president of the B.C. Urban Entrepreneur Development Association and a partner with Be Your Own Boss Consulting Inc., said about 800 businesses have been launched through the program, which started 15 years ago, about 20 per cent of them by immigrants.
The success rate, he added, is 90 to 95 per cent after one year and workshops include accounting, marketing, social media marketing, web design and computer courses.
Bizzo said that teachers are professional instructors - the chief instructor is Kwantlen Polytechnic University business professor Philip Ho - and mentors are volunteers from the local business community.
Students are paid about $300 a week by the provincial government to attend the program, which receives about $600,000 annually, excluding the weekly payments.
"The mandate is not just immigrants," Bizzo noted, "but we work with a lot of immigrants."
Bizzo said many immigrants have trouble finding work, partly because of poor English skills. "They're underemployed, (so) they seek self-employment."
His current class includes two Iranians, one person from Iraq, two from Israel and two from China.
"This is probably the best program in the country," he added. "They're assigned professional coaches who help them develop a business plan."
Their businesses range across a wide spectrum, from bookkeepers to flower arrangers, and import/ export companies, even healers.
One graduate started a small airline company, while another created a company that sold vegan condoms.
"Sometimes, they're entrepreneurs in their (previous) country," added Bizzo. "Sometimes, they come to Canada and realize some things are missing here, so they bring in a need that needs to be filled.
"We try to shy away from opening restaurants, because of the capital involved."
Bizzo's 16 business advisers who act as mentors for students are all professional business people -and they're volunteers. "I've got lawyers, accountants, bankers. They work about 16 hours every three months."
Sandra Rohler, who immigrated to Canada from Germany in 2005, is a registered architect in Germany who is in the process of getting fully certified in Canada while starting her own house design company focused on energy efficient homes.
Rohler, whose company is called Rohler Passive House Design, is enrolled in the SUCCESS program to hone her Canadian business skills.
"I applied in September and I was really lucky that I got a spot. Being an architect doesn't mean you know how to run a business in Canada."
Rohler said the marketing sessions were very helpful, along with the bookkeeping skills she's learned. "And the mentoring part is really good."
Another graduate of the program is Kanako Heinrichs, who immigrated from Japan to Canada in 2007 and started Queensberry Flower Co. Inc., a flower kiosk at Vancouver's Granville SkyTrain Station.
Heinrichs said last year that she had high praise for the program, citing among other things the confidence she gained through suggestions and encouragement from staff and classmates.

Pierre Desir: I would like to improve on my technique, which means my footwork, getting in and out of breaks, backpedalling, staying low, opening up my hips. That's something I try and work on every day with the coaches. That's something I watch film of myself on.
Pierre Desir: My family. My family kept me motivated to keep pushing and following my dreams by giving me a lot of love and support. They gave a lot of advice when I needed it the most.
Pierre Desir: Definitely the fans. They have shown me so much love throughout this whole time that I've been here. I'm just very excited to be in a place where the fans embrace you and show you so much love and respect.
Pierre Desir: Number one, make the team. Two, have as many interceptions as possible. And three, just make a big impact. Whether it's on defense or special teams.

Cute Couple Alert! While trawling through Twitter yesterday, we came across Professor Green's snap of gorgeous girlfriend Millie Mackintosh. Aww. But more importantly: LOOK at that fabulous beehive hair do! The reality TV star looked like she'd time travelled back to the '60s thanks to her Twiggy-esque makeup (hello flicked black eyeliner, mega lashes and pearly lipstick) with a cropped leather jacket and white jeans for a day of filming 'Made in Chelsea' on the Kings Road in London.
Of course, Millie is a bonafide beauty blogger as well as a telly star so she isn't one to shy away from trying new beauty trends. If you haven't already, we recommend you check out MM's beauty blog (www.missmilliemakeup.co.uk), which is filled with tips and step by step videos to help you nail the Chelsea look. And having just landed a deal with St Tropez, this is one lady with more than a few beauty products up her sleeve.
What's more, beehives are big news round these parts so we're pleased to see Millie is the latest starlet to jump on the bandwagon. We'll never forget when Cheryl Cole stepped out with similarly huge hair emphasised by a tight head band back in September 2011 at the launch of her shoe collaboration with Stylistpick. She was shortly followed by Lady Gaga who turned heads in October 2011 when on a trip to London, reminding us that flat hair is well and truly over (check out our favourite beehive-rs in the gallery above).

The War Between Men and Women
Rape: The Bait and the Trap
Rape and Its Victims: A Report for Citizens, Health Facilities and Criminal Justice Agencies Enforcement Assistance Administration, Washington, DC. Criminal Justice Reference Service, PO Box 24036, Southwest Post Office, Washington, DC 20024
No other subject, it seems, is experienced so differently by men and women as rape. Women deeply dread and resent it to an extent which men apparently cannot recognize; it is perhaps the ultimate and essential complaint that women have to make against men. Of course men may recognize that it is wrong to use physical force against another person, and that rape laws are not prosecuted fairly and so on, but at a certain point they are apt to say, "But what was she doing there at that hour anyway?" or "Luckily he didn't really hurt her," and serious discussion ceases.
Women sense—indeed are carefully taught to feel—that the institution of rape is mysteriously protected by an armor of folk lore, Bible tales, legal precedents, specious psychological theories. Most of all it seems protected by a rooted and implacable male belief that women want to be raped—which most women, conscientiously examining their motives, maintain they do not—or deserve to be raped, for violation of certain customs governing dress or behavior, a strange proposition to which women are more likely to accede.
While women can all imagine themselves as rape victims, most men know they are not rapists. So incidents that would be resented on personal grounds if happening to their "own" women do not have even the intrinsic interest for them of arguments on principle against military intervention in the political destiny of foreign nations, as in Vietnam, where the "rape" of that country was referred to in the peace movement and meant defoliation of crops. But unlike the interest in the political destiny of Vietnam, which greatly diminished when the danger to American males, via the draft, was eliminated, rape is an abiding concern to women.
Even if they don't think about it very much, most have incorporated into their lives routine precautions along lines prescribed by the general culture. From a woman's earliest days she is attended by injunctions about strangers, and warnings about dark streets, locks, escorts, and provocative behavior. She internalizes the lessons contained therein, that to break certain rules is to invite or deserve rape. Her fears, if not entirely conscious, are at least readily accessible, and are continually activated by a vast body of exemplary literature, both traditional and in the daily paper. To test this, ask yourself, if you are a woman, or ask any woman, what she knows about Richard Speck, the Boston Strangler, and "that thing that happened over on—street last week," and you will find that she has considerable rape literature by heart.
It seems important, in attempting to assess the value or seriousness of Susan Brownmiller's polemic on rape, to understand that there are really two audiences for it, one which will know much of what she has to say already, and another which is ill-equipped by training or sympathy to understand it at all. This likely accounts for a certain unevenness of tone, veering from indignation to the composed deployment of statistics in the manner of…

Seriously, my sister-in-law, a long time gay supporter, was raising her two teenage sons. She called and told me they were watching a gay pride parade, and the gays scared her. She was afraid the guys in the parade would be after her sons. Well, that's mothers for you. Fine, we get outrageous, but we should show a neighborly side of ourselves to the world often enough.

Baptiste Giabiconi very hot pics :
I hate to be a downer (not really) but am I the only one who's gotten kind of tired of the endless parade of perfect gym body, sculped faced clones? Give me a flaw here and there. It gives the person a little interest.

BATAVIA – Batavia police continue to investigate a case of inappropriate nude images that were taken by Rotolo Middle School students of themselves and shared with other students.
"They are graphic enough to get your attention," Batavia Police Detective Kevin Bretz said during a news conference Wednesday afternoon. "I have seen a lot worse, but either way, they are inappropriate."
Six or seven students sent photos of themselves through cellphone text messages, Bretz said. About 12 students have received the photos.
"Most of them are selfies that were taken in a mirror," Bretz said. The photos were taken in the last four to six weeks, he said, but there was no indication that they were taken on school grounds.
Police have not found any evidence the photos have made their way onto different Internet sites, Bretz said. He didn't know whether the students were sexting as part of a game.
"This is a curious thing," he said. "It is a junior high thing."
The school district was made aware of the images on Tuesday after a Rotolo Middle School student let a staff member know that some inappropriate images of classmates may have been distributed through social media, Batavia School Superintendent Lisa Hichens said.
Police continue to investigate the matter, she said.
"We won't do anything as a district until the conclusion of the investigation," Hichens said.
Hichens said the district plans to take appropriate action at the conclusion of the investigation. However, the punishment against the students will not be made public, she said.
"The consequences will only be shared with those families involved in this incident, but the district will continue to educate all students about the Internet and social media," Hichens said.
According to Rotolo's handbook, students are prohibited from "creating, sending, sharing, viewing, receiving or possessing an indecent visual depiction of oneself or another person through the use of a computer, electronic communication device or cellular phone."
Under state law, it is illegal for those under the age of 18 to distribute lewd photos using their cellphones or computers. Those found guilty of sexting could face supervision as well as community service and counseling.
Hichens said parents and students directly involved in the investigation have been cooperative. She urged all parents to use the situation as a chance to talk to their children about the dangers of social media.
"We hope that all parents take the time today to talk with their children about social media and the permanent nature of posting anything online," she said.
Those with specific information related to the investigation to contact the Batavia Police Department at 630-454-2500, Hichens said.

The Lincoln County FFA will observe and celebrate National FFA Week this week with numerous activities.
These activities were begun locally 34 years ago by Stan Golden and Tim Redd and have grown over the years.
The week kicked off Monday with a bonfire at advisor Tim Bradford's house with members from both Lincoln County High School and Ninth Grade Academy attending. Tuesday is muddy truck day with students dressing in camouflage and rubber boots. Wednesday will be cowboy and cowgirl day, and Thursday is FFA spirit day.
Friday will be celebrated with the always-anticipated Tractor Day. Students will drive their tractors to school in an effort to show the school and community what agriculture represents to us all. Students will dress in Carhartt's and tractor day shirts. Breakfast will be served at 7 a.m.
"Students will be on the roads before daylight," said advisor Jennifer Snoddy. "We ask that the public be aware of their presence and be cautious."
FFA sponsors expressed appreciation to the Lincoln County School Board and central office staff for their continued support, as well as Shoney's, Yearwood Equipment, H&R Agripower, Tri-Green Equipment, Scivally Grain and Lincoln Farmers Co-op for sponsoring the breakfast.
The FFA organization is the largest youth organization in the nation whose mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.

At the peak of the shopping and giving season, consumers are increasingly combining both activities.
They are buying products that have charitable tie-ins, shopping through Web portals that send savings to nonprofits, and donating at the registers when they check out at stores. They're buying product lines like Newman's Own, which channels profits to a foundation, and TOMS Shoes, which gives a pair of shoes to a needy child for every pair the company sells.
These charity-linked purchases might give consumers a good feeling, but are they good for charities? And for shoppers?
Laura Brooks, 38, is a stay-at-home mom and lives in St. Louis with her husband, Steve. After one of her three children asked for a pair of TOMS shoes last year, it occurred to her that she could incorporate giving into her regular shopping. She now buys most of her children's books through the Kohl's Cares programs, which donates 100 percent of proceeds to children's causes.
"I bought all these things before — shoes or salad dressing — but now it feels like I am doing good, too," Brooks said.
Maybe so, but only if those shopping decisions aren't taking the place of her other charitable giving, say some specialists.
Charitable shopping "undermines the philanthropy of a nonprofit through diminished charitable donations," said Sondra Dellaripa, principal consultant for the nonprofit consultancy Harvest Development Group. In fund-raising development for charities, she said, it is important to build a relationship with a donor — something that doesn't happen in these transactions.
So, how can you make your shopping turn into giving while keeping in mind how much you're really giving to charity?
Big money — Direct donations at merchants are one of the biggest cash generators. For instance, St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital's holiday season has a "Thanks and Giving" campaign that collects dollars at cash registers and is now its single largest fund-raiser. More than 60 firms, mostly retailers, participate in the two-month drive, which raised nearly $65 million for St. Jude's last year.
Cause marketing reconsidered — One step removed from this are consumer products that give a portion of profits to specific charities. This is soaring, from pink ribbons during Breast Cancer Awareness Month to campaigns that donate loyalty rewards from companies like Amazon.com and airlines.
The broad array of products makes it difficult to tally the overall retail impact, but companies will spend about $1.7 billion this year on sponsoring causes — more than double their spending a decade ago, according to IEG Sponsorship Report. And, increasingly, retailers are trying to connect with shoppers by aligning their brands with charities.
But not all products with charity tie-ins are created equal. Some deliver no money to charity at all; they're just for awareness. Consumers can check this, before they buy, on the product's website or by reading the tiny print on the product's packaging.
Feel-good shopping portals — For those shopping online, there are pass-through sites where a charity gets money every time a consumer makes a purchase. For sites like iGive.com, GoodShop.com, We-Care.com, and Social Good Network, the user picks the charity, which could be as small as a local school, and donations are not regarded as tax-deductible.
The donated percentage of the purchase price varies from 1 to 25 percent. Major retailers, such as Nordstrom Inc. and Lands' End, are at 2 percent on iGive.com. So, a $250 purchase from one of those retailers would result in a $5 donation to a charity. Magazine and newspaper subscriptions tend to have the highest returns, sometimes in excess of 20 percent.

Jonathan Willis Conducts ASU Honors Band
March 19, 2013
Jonathan Willis, director of bands at the University of Mount Union, was recently invited to guest conduct the honors band festival at Alabama State University. The festival was held Friday, March 15 through Sunday, March 17 in Montgomery, Ala. and allowed talented high school students to come together under the direction of Willis.
This was Willis' first appearance as guest conductor of the ASU Honors Band. He previously worked with Dr. Carly Johnson, professor of trumpet at ASU, who invited him to guest conduct this years' edition of the honors band.
"It is customary for such festivals to invite a guest conductor from outside the region to lead the band," said Willis. "In some cases, the conductor will lead a master class on conducting, music education or any number of topics related to learning and leading music ensembles."
Willis gave a master class on Saturday to the music education students at Alabama State. The session was geared toward conducting and rehearsal techniques. No stranger to all that is entailed with directing, he also discussed administrative duties facing band directors, such as budgeting, writing proposals, hiring staff, uniforms, cataloging instrument storage and equipment database needs.
Honors band students faced a 3-hour-long rehearsal on Friday evening, followed by three separate 2.5-hour rehearsals on Saturday and a final 1.5-hour rehearsal on Sunday before the concert. Students' parents, university faculty and local community members were in attendance for the concert, as well as local and regional band directors.
"The event was a big success," said Willis. "Alabama State University uses the event to attract some of the best high school musicians in the region to their campus for a weekend, and they allow those students to audition for music and marching band scholarships."
Before the final piece of music was performed on Sunday, the ASU music faculty awarded music scholarships to students who had auditioned over the weekend.
"It's a thrill for the parents to see their kids awarded a scholarship while on stage with an honors band," said Willis. "I thought the whole process was very well done."
A member of the Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Alabama State University is always looking for outside conductors, guest artists and lecturers to attend functions to offer variety and continued diversity to their education.
"I found the high school honors band students to be amazingly talented and bright, and they were a joy to work with," said Willis. "I also found the ASU music students to be very talented and very receptive to my master class on conducting."
There are several benefits to attending these events, according to Willis. Events provide participating students with the chance to learn from professionals all over the country and allow college faculty members to meet faculty from other schools, to network and to get ideas from one another.
Willis currently conducts three or four large-ensemble events each year in the Northeast Ohio area. This academic year alone, Willis has already conducted the OMEA District VI Honors Band and OMEA District VI Middle School Honors Band. He was also a guest clinician as a trombonist and conductor for the Lakeland Community College honors jazz band festival.

Among the arts organizations suffering the effects of the lingering economic downturn are suburban orchestras whose financial and logistical woes amount to slightly different variations on the same theme.
The venerable Elgin Symphony Orchestra, which has in the past welcomed such virtuosos as Itzhak Perlman, Pinchas Zukerman and Sir James Galway, owes its namesake city nearly $200,000 in back rent.
DuPage County's New Philharmonic, which for decades called the College of DuPage's McAninch Arts Center home, lost its venue to renovations that began in September. Dwindling attendance at alternate venues subsequently forced the orchestra to cancel most of this season's scheduled performances.
"Orchestras are not immune to the pressures affecting all industries," said Judith Kurnick, of the League of American Orchestras, which represents 800 ensembles nationwide.
In response, organization have tried to cut expenses and raise revenues, Kurnick said. That means featuring local soloists, broadening repertoire and performing works that don't require the full orchestra.
To that end, the Lake Forest Symphony, in residence at the College of Lake County in Grayslake, offers an all-string program this weekend in order to reserve its resources for May's Gustav Mahler program, which requires a large orchestra.
"We pace ourselves," said Lake Forest Executive Director Susan Lape. "We've been careful about spending. And we've had a loyal group of supporters who have stood with us."
Raising revenue remains a challenge. Orchestras have responded by expanding their audience through the use of social media, performing in underserved neighborhoods, hosting pre- and post-concert events, performing chamber concerts in alternative venues like nightclubs or churches, and offering special incentives like discounts or two-for-one admission, Kurnick said.
Despite the challenges, fewer than 10 of the League's 800 member orchestras have dissolved in recent years, Kurnick said.
"What's interesting is they almost always come back in the same or a slightly different form," she said, citing as examples Syracuse, N.Y., and Honolulu orchestras.
"Communities love their orchestras," Kurnick said, and they find a way to build and keep them.

We interview Hal Hanlin, Chris Junior, and Bill Fisher about Conquest
The first play test just ended for Trion's newest open-world PvP content, and the next test begins this Thursday. Hal Halin (Design Producer), Bill Fisher (Lead Game Designer) and Chris Junior (Senior Systems Designer) chatted with ZAM about what this huge new PvP format will hold... and the trials and tribulations of balancing such a a major undertaking. Read on to learn more!
ZAM: Conquest is the news on everybody's lips. Tell us about the newest innovation in PvP!
Bill:It's really about the feel of open-world PvP, that's what we're going after and we keep saying that phrase but that's it: the feel of open-world PvP, the feel of large scale conflict, the feel of not knowing what's over that hill and what's going to happen. It's something you really can't get out of a warfront, which is a little more structured and quicker action.
ZAM: We've heard the prestige ranks are changing in 1.9? What do you hope to accomplish with this change?
Chris: Yes, there will be 50 ranks. There will be a whole new set of armor and weapons for our max-ranked players. We'll drop down the previous armor to make room for the new ones, and we're also increasing bolster at the same time to help out new players and keep some balance.
Bill: We're trying to add more progression and more carrots for people to go after, and trying to close the gap a bit in power. I know that sounds a bit odd when we're adding stronger gear, but we really are raising our bolstering system pretty significantly so the new players getting in shouldn't become dog meat nearly as quickly.
ZAM: So, give us the history of Conquest. When did the idea first come around; a new, huge zone for PvP, three factions, etc?
Bill: The idea behind large-scale PvP is something a lot of developers here have really been interested in. We've had a lot of stuff on our plate as you know; Rift puts out more content than anything else on the planet! And we finally felt that it was the right time to investigate this, and we had a lot of people interested in the goal of capturing that feel of open-world PvP and to solve the problems that come with it. There're a lot of problems that come just with PvP servers, what with faction imbalances. So doing something like Conquest really just fit into where we thought we should take Rift at this time.
Hal: Another thing that's important for people outside of the Rift universe to understand is that the world of Telara changes. It has evolved in the year + since we began, and part of that change is the factional war between the Guardians and the Defiants has escalated… but we've realized that we're all fighting these same big monsters. So we have the opportunity to let the people who really thrive on PvP to branch out; both working against their opposing faction and with them in Conquest.
ZAM: Why DO you have three factions? Are there any differences between the three? Do players get to choose which one they side with, or are they randomly assigned?
Bill: Whether or not they're ultimately going to be able to choose when the feature goes live is undecided right now. As we said before, we're tackling a lot of different issues right now with factional balance; but we really wanted to go with the three factions to give a different feel than the other PvP available currently. As for the factions themselves, the primary differentiator between them is that they all are assembled from across different realities, and they have different views as to what the purpose of the Ascended ultimately is. Nightfall, for example, believes that the Ascended must continue to ascend; that they shouldn't just be stagnant in the world as they currently are. The Oathsworn, regardless of being Guardian or Defiant, believe that the Ascended are here to protect all realities, and the Dominion believe that by inserting their will upon all realities they can make a better world for everyone.
ZAM: How are the match compositions set up? I can understand the appeal of having two smaller teams group up against a larger third group; but are the sides all kept relatively the same size?
Bill: There was actually a little bit of a bug in our last play test (laughs). We actually have limiters on the differentials between team sizes, but we had them set a little bit high by default, and for our next play test on Thursday that differential will be a LOT smaller. We don't intend one side to have triple the number of another side!
ZAM: How often do new Conquests start up? Do they come about every, say, X hours… or as soon as they have Y amount of players queued up?
Bill: Ultimately, that too is to be determined as we go through our testing phases. Right now we have a number of ideas up our sleeves; but as we get closer to the launch date we're going to lock it down. The goal is to have the right number of Conquests launching! We also don't want to destroy warfronts by adding this system, as we feel this will drag a pretty significant number of people away from those while Conquest is running.
ZAM: On to the objectives! What do players focus on? Have there been tweaks made during Beta, such as diminishing or buffing turret strength, or the power of the crafting buffs?
Bill: Oh man, there are a lot of changes that have happened just in the last couple of days! We had one of our "tear-down meetings" where we went through seventy-five line items and checked everything piece by piece. My brain is a little bit fried by it, but off the top of my head we adjusted the number of control points that were needed to start the end phase of the game; we massively adjusted hit points on pretty much everything; we increased damage output on almost everything on the map; there're really too many things to list: check the patch notes. We're going to be constantly tweaking and changing things up until a week or so before it goes lives on the servers.
Hal: There are other things too. Just in terms of messaging for example, making sure players know where their base is, letting them get into and out of the Conquest in fluid manner. These were all things that tested very well with our last group, and our next test this Thursday will hopefully see the new batch of players nodding and smiling at the end of it. And then we'll have a whole new list of things to change!
Chris: One of the great things about the stress test is the massive amount of feedback from players who have never seen the features before, and seeing how they react to the content and learning what they experience and what they want. We want to get a lot of bodies in there to make sure the servers can take it, but we also love the feedback more than anything else. After seventy-five items this week we're hoping there are a little less next time but if there are still seventy-five new ones we'll go through them too.
Hal: It's absolutely wonderful to have somebody come on and just be there for the experience and to play it, but if we just wanted the number of moving entities we could just run bots through there. But what we really want to see is how the three factions collide. Does it make sense? Does the layout of the capture points make sense? Does the resource gathering make sense? This is a case of the more feedback we get, the better the end product will be.
Bill: One of the other important things I wanted to note, and something I wrote about on the forums: we didn't post a lot of information about how to play Conquest on purpose. We really wanted people's first impressions, to see what they would do. We're obviously been working on this for a while internally, and we know how things work. But we needed to see how people unfamiliar with the zone would react; and that's really what the unveil of Conquest was about for us.

How do we cool it when the news is so hot?
How do we cool it when the news is so hot?
Well, if your nerves aren't frazzled by now, they never will be. Mine are. I just tore myself away from two-and-a-half days of being glued to television's incessant "Breaking News" in Washington, D.C.
I feel like a limp dish rag. How about you? Our government at a standstill and then, Thursday afternoon, a shooting incident in the capital city. I shuddered. I held my breath until it all cooled down and it didn't seem to be any kind of organized rebellion, and there were no mass killings.
I guess many of us are all pretty jumpy, given previous grievous outbursts in our country. Things like that tend to make us always fear the worst. It was never my practice to watch daytime TV. But in recent weeks I've gotten hooked on CNN's constant flow of the latest happenings. Doing this has upset my apple cart, so to speak. It has unnerved me.
It has always been my aim to make this column something positive for its readers, something cheerful, uplifting. The world today is so full of upsetting news. It is my belief we should not dwell on the negative deeds of mankind, but on the positive side, the better instincts which I believe are what humanity is really hungering for, starving for. It seems like the good things happening get kind of swept under the rug. The sensational things, the perverted side of humankind, are the things that get the most publicity, or should I say, notoriety?
There is a lot of truth in that old song, "You've got to accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, latch on to the affirmative, don't mess with Mr. In-Between." Did that come from a movie? Was it "Mary Poppins"? I can almost hear Dick Van Dyke or Julie Andrews singing it, but I'm not sure. Anybody know? I'm sure I could find that on the Internet, but I'll let one of you inform me on that.
Anyway, looking at things on the positive side has always been my philosophy, even though I don't always follow through. It's pretty easy to sink into that futility rut when life has dealt a few too many blows; and it is my belief that everyone, sooner or later, has their down times. After all, it's pretty hard to wear a smile if the world outside is bleak. We forget to count our blessings instead of sheep, as the song goes.
Meandering Thoughts
Last night I decided at about 8 p.m. to get the car out and go drop my water bill payment off at the drop- off box and stop at the Mobil on West gas station to fill my little Ford's tank. I'd seen the price was down dramatically and thought it'd be a good idea before it started back up again. The girls in there know me and since the station is so handy for me that's where I usually go. They know it is difficult for me to get around anymore and they go out of their way to help me. So do customers usually, total strangers. Last night the lady at the counter helped me get a gallon of milk to the car.
People hold doors for me and are always very kind and courteous. Sometimes it's just young kids, young adults who offer me the courtesies, and that just pumps my heart up no end. When a young guy holds the door for me, I thank him and feel a compassion for his vulnerability, wondering what life has in store for him.
There's a step down on the way out of the station and if a strong person is approaching the step at the same time as me, I often ask if I can hold on to his or her arm for that step down – yes I've got the nerve of a bar bouncer – but I've never been treated rudely. It is especially heart-rending when a young person offers me special courtesy. And you'd be surprised, I imagine, how often that happens. Many just teenagers, and often it's boys, will wait on me to hold a door open. Girls do it too, but somehow I am especially warmed when it's a young guy. They sometimes seem so vulnerable, and a vague feeling akin to sorrow seeps through me hoping that life won't treat them too badly. I've had sons of my own, and grandsons. I hope any of them would do that for some hobbling old lady.
So maybe having sons is what has made me feel more significant when some young man offers a lending hand or just takes time to hold a door for me. As we grow older and days are more uncertain, little things can mean a lot.
Such As …
My son calls me sometimes to alert me there's a Cub game on TV. We may each follow it while talking on the phone, maybe the entire game, and I learn a lot about baseball, the players' particular techniques and the finer rules of which I'd otherwise have no clue. Son has this knowledge, amazing to me, of sports personalities, especially those of baseball, present and past, but football, basketball and hockey too. He remembers certain outstanding plays, wins and losses, championships, coaches, managers. I can't believe it. He'll probably be put out with me for mentioning him here, but he'll get over it.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) - A person with knowledge of the situation tells The Associated Press that book signings for Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick scheduled at Barnes & Noble have been canceled because of threats against him.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitivity of the situation. Vick, and store employees, faced threats because of his role in running a dogfighting ring. Vick served 18 months in federal prison. He has played the last four years with the Eagles.
He was set to sign copies of his autobiography "Finally Free," at stores in Atlanta, New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Byron Williamson, president of Worthy Publishing, tells Phillymag.com that "we cannot knowingly put anyone in harm's way, and therefore we must announce the cancellation of Mr. Vick's book-signing appearances." Williamson says the threats of violence have been reported to the police.

Meridian, Miss. An investigation is continuing into some settlement claims for people who were affected by the 2010 BP Oil Spill. Within the last week Meridian police have received numerous calls about solicitors collecting personal information and money from citizens to file claims. One businessman from California says he is now in Meridian to set the record straight.
The Meridian Police Department is spearheading the local investigation. In all, 11 people including a man from Neshoba County were killed in that 2010 explosion in the Gulf of Mexico. Carlos Crump is a Regional Claims Manager for the company, ClaimsComp. Aside from the fatal victims, he says that many other people were affected by the spill in various ways. In turn, he says those individuals are eligible for compensation.
"They can qualify for something called a business economic loss claim, an individual economic loss claim, and a real estate property claim. Those are the only claims that we are even focusing on, but they must be gainfully employed; they must be in certain industries."
Crump says his company is filing settlement claims. Although he contends that his agency is legitimate, he says others may not be.
"If someone is asking you for money to submit a claim, run because they're not supposed to do that. I flew from Los Angeles, California to Little Rock and drove from Little Rock to Meridian to show my face to show that there is integrity out here and we're going to still keep pushing. We're going to help people become aware that they can possibly qualify."
Meanwhile, Meridian police are advising residents to use extreme caution when filing for claims.
"I would advise everyone in Meridian, to not give out personal information until you are absolutely sure that this is a legitimate claim," says MPD Chief James Lee. "Protect your information: your name, your social security number and your date of birth. In today's environment that's worth money in the bank. Please Meridian, be careful!"
At this time the final day to file for settlement claims is April 22, 2014. For more information on the BP Oil Spill Settlement log onto deepwaterhorizonsettlement.com.

Turned out to be the distributor. I swapped in one from another car... actually an EA81 disty. And it fixed the problem.
Although, another symptom I had was the tack was jumping around. Not sure if your tach is doing this.
Try swapping distys. I had the disty rebuilt for $150... Philbin in Portland, OR.
Hope this helps... Ron W.

Very sad but I have been very lazy this summer. Too hot to work on anything. I swapped out my disty with the other one I had and it fixed the stumbling but now the fuel pump does not give that 7 or 8 seconds of gas to the engine upon first turning the key. Once the engine actually fires I get 12.4 volts to the pump and it works fine. During cranking I only get 9 volts and the pump does not pump. It will be a problem as long as the thing sets for a while and there is not gas in the carb to get her going. What do you think, should I just bypass it altogether and run a hot wire (switched of course) to the pump or what?
PO bypassed the fuel pump on my brat (dont know why) been that way for years, works fine.
Have done this on a few vehicals aswell

Calif. suit on car greenhouse gases dismissed
A U.S. federal judge tossed out a lawsuit by California's attorney general on Monday seeking hundreds of millions of dollars from six automakers for damaging the state with climate-changing greenhouse gases.
Martin Jenkins, a federal judge in the Northern District of California, said the issue of global warming should be decided in the political rather than legal arena.
The Court finds that injecting itself into the global warming thicket at this juncture would require an initial policy determination of the type reserved for the political branches of government, Jenkins wrote in approving the automakers' motion to dismiss the case.
The suit, filed in September, targeted General Motors Corp, Ford Motor Co, Toyota Motor Corp, the U.S. arm of Germany's DaimlerChrysler AG and the North American units of Japan's Honda Motor Co and Nissan Motor Co Ltd.
The Court is left to make an initial decision as to what is unreasonable in the context of carbon dioxide emissions, Jenkins wrote. Such an exercise would require the Court to create a quotient or standard in order to quantify any potential damages that flow from Defendants' alleged act of contributing 30 percent of California's carbon dioxide emissions.
The balancing of those competing interests is the type of initial policy determination to be made by the political branches, and not this Court.
The suit was the first seeking to hold manufacturers liable for global warming damages caused by greenhouse emissions. It said cars made by the six automakers account for more than 30 percent of human-generated carbon dioxide emissions in California, the most populous U.S. state.
We understand why a district federal judge may not want to jump into a global warming thicket with both feet, Ken Alex, California's supervising deputy attorney general, said in an interview. Having said that, the basic tenet of law is that where you describe a harm then there needs to be a remedy for it.
Right now because the political branches -- the federal government, Congress and the executive branch -- have not acted, the state of California is left without a remedy.
Alex said his office would consider whether to appeal the case to the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, saying judges frequently decided reasonable standards in cases such as dumping of pollution into rivers.
According to the suit, California spends millions of dollars to deal with a reduced snow pack, beach erosion, ozone pollution and the impact on endangered animals and fish.
California has also targeted the auto industry with first-in-the-nation rules adopted in 2004 requiring automakers to reduce emissions from cars and light trucks.

...really. Seriously.
The Dodgers are still interested in Juan Castro, the veteran utility infielder who was designated for assignment by Cincinnati last week, a source close to the situation said. Castro will officially become a free agent if the Reds don't trade him by 10 a.m. today, and signing him would allow the Dodgers to send top shortstop prospect Chin-lung Hu back to the minors so he could get regular playing time.
One factor that might work against the Dodgers is that they would want Castro to initially go to Triple-A Las Vegas for a few days because he hasn't played since April 17. There are teams interested - notably San Diego - that would immediately put him in the majors.

Farmers in North Carolina have a new online resource to help them grow their blackberry and raspberry operations.
The Blackberry & Raspberry Growers Information Portal was launched recently by N.C. MarketReady, a program of North Carolina State University, with a grant from the North Carolina Tobacco Trust Fund Commission.
N.C. MarketReady developed the Blackberry & Raspberry Growers Information Portal as a one-stop shop to bring together on one Web site all the resources pertaining to business management and production of blackberries and raspberries in North Carolina. Farmers, North Carolina Cooperative Extension agents and home gardeners can find research-based information specific to North Carolina blackberry and raspberry production on the site. A selection of available resource topics includes marketing, food safety, integrated pest management, industry events and risk management.
New growers will find resources specific to business start-up. Home gardeners can learn the berry basics. All growers will recognize the convenience of the weather and climate links. The portal can be accessed by visiting N.C. MarketReady online at www.ncmarketready.org and clicking the tab on the left menu bar.
The Blackberry & Raspberry Growers Information Portal is a compilation of materials developed by multiple departments, programs and organizations associated with North Carolina State University, as well as from other academic and agricultural sources.
The goal in designing information portals is to save growers and Extension agents time and effort by creating a one-stop shop for a specific agricultural commodity; in this case, blackberries and raspberries. The two fruits are combined because both crops are "brambles" and produced similarly. Development of portals for other crops, including tomatoes, is under way.
N.C. MarketReady, formerly known as the Program for Value-Added & Alternative Agriculture, is a program of North Carolina Cooperative Extension, which is an educational outreach of North Carolina State University and North Carolina A&T State University.
N.C. MarketReady's multi-disciplinary team builds partnerships and educational resources to help North Carolina agriculture be more profitable. N.C. MarketReady is a partner of the Plants for Human Health Institute at the North Carolina Research Campus in Kannapolis.

| Nutty Vegetable Pasta
February, 2007
Wheat-free, dairy-free, egg-free
Serves 4-6 / This is the perfect substitute for those who miss peanut sauce. Serving tip: With the exception of the extra sauce, which you can save to enhance other meals, this is a dish you'll want to eat right away; it doesn't age gracefully, but it's so good. Ingredient tip: Although soba noodles are buckwheat noodles, they usually contain real wheat as well, so be sure to check the label. Buckwheat noodles generally do not stay in one long strand like noodles with gluten, so be prepared for smaller pasta pieces. Make-ahead tip: Use the leftover tahini mixture as a calcium-rich spread for crackers, a veggie dip, or a sauce over steamed greens.
3 cloves garlic
1/4 cup tahini
1/2 cup unsalted, creamy almond butter
2 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/4 cup low-sodium tamari (wheat-free soy sauce)
1/2 cup water or low-sodium vegetable broth, or a combination
7 ounces low-sodium, wheat-free soba noodles
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained
3 cups raw sliced vegetables (carrots, broccoli, mushrooms, zucchini, or your favorites)
Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
Water, broth, or tamari, to moisten (optional)
1. Place garlic, tahini, almond butter, rice vinegar, tamari, and water or broth in a food processor; blend until smooth. Set aside. (Yield: 1 1/2 cups.)
2. Boil noodles about 8 minutes. While noodles are cooking, begin stir-frying sliced water chestnuts and all vegetables in olive oil in a wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat. When vegetables are crisp-tender (at least
5 minutes), season with crushed red pepper flakes, if desired, and salt to taste.
3. Drain noodles. Add noodles and about half of the tahini sauce to vegetables. Stir to coat. Add more water, broth, or tamari to moisten,
if desired. Serve immediately.

Submission + - "Beaming" technology allows for remote human/rat communications (gizmag.com)
cylonlover writes: The EU Commission's Community Research and Development Information Service (CORDIS) is working on a "beaming" telepresence system that is designed to allow users to virtually experience being in a remote location by seeing, hearing and even feeling that location through the sensory inputs of a robot located there. That robot, in turn, would relay the user's speech and movements to the people at that location. Now, two of the CORDIS partners have put an interesting slant on the technology – they've used it to let people interact with rats.

Student Profiles
US students intern at Parliament
Two students from the USA, Kelly Mader, from Millersville University in Pennsylvania, and Samantha Schultz, from Canisius College in Buffalo, New York, are experiencing the workings of UK Parliament this autumn semester as part of the Study Abroad Programme, which is run in conjunction with London Metropolitan University.
For two days every week, both girls are working with Members of Parliament and their staff and discovering what is involved in running a successful political party in the UK.
Kelly, a third year International Major who specialises in European Studies, is placed with Lynne Featherstone MP in the Hornsey and Wood Green Constituency Office of the Liberal Democrat Party, while Samantha is with Labour MP Emily Thornberry in the Islington and South Finsbury Constituency Office.
According to Kelly, the internship will give her 'good experience and an inside view of the workings of the British Parliamentary System'.
'Studying at London Metropolitan University will also give me good experience of living and working in a big city. After I graduate I would like to work in Washington DC, possibly for the State Department,' she said.
Samantha agreed, saying: 'I hope the internship will go some way to helping me gain a place at Law School after I graduate.'
Kelly's duties include working on campaigns, preparing mailings and local deliveries, and office administration, while Samantha is assisting with casework, campaigning and administrative duties.
The Study Abroad Programme combines a period of residence abroad with an educational programme through which students gain academic credit towards their degree in their country of origin.
Students who apply for an internship with London Metropolitan University are fully integrated into the academic and social life of London Met, one of the largest universities in London with around 34,000 students and 4000 staff over both campuses.

I am self-employed through a family trust. Money in the trust deposited in a bank account gives a low interest rate compared with personal deposits. Can I borrow money from the trust and put it in the bank as a personal deposit, then transfer the higher-interest amount back to the company? The way my bank accounts are set up, it can be done but I wondered whether it was legal.
Yes you can, but consult your accountant before doing so. I don't know the details of your balance sheet but, in the worst-case scenario, the tax office could deem the loan to be an unfranked dividend to you. The other downside is that the interest would be taxable in your hands, so consider putting the deposit in the name of a family member with a low tax rate. A simpler strategy may be to negotiate with your bank manager.
I have been working from home as a machinist for a company for the past 10 years. I go on the aged pension shortly and apparently income earned this way is not eligible for the $250 a fortnight allowance. The company I work for is happy to change my work status to part-time casual on wages, but I would continue working from home using my own sewing machines. Would this make me eligible for the allowance?
Centrelink advises that your question highlights the distinction social security law makes in what is considered employment income and what is considered business income. The work bonus applies to gross employment income. However, in some cases, someone who thinks they're self-employed may be considered to earn employment income and therefore be able to take advantage of the work bonus. Each case is assessed on its merits, so talk to the financial information people at Centrelink.
My wife and I recently sought advice as we have reached retirement age and the adviser asked why we were paying compulsory superannuation contributions with after-tax dollars. I was informed that compulsory super contributions may be paid with pre-tax dollars, attracting only 15 per cent tax, as opposed to paying the marginal tax rate. At the time that salary sacrificing was introduced, taxpayers were made aware of the benefits of using pre-tax dollars to pay voluntary contributions to super, but I don't recall any advice that we could use pre-tax dollars to pay the compulsory super contribution. When did the Australian Taxation Office introduce the rule that allows pre-tax dollars to pay compulsory super contributions? How do employees find out if they are paying their compulsory super contribution with pre- or post-tax dollars? How do they go about changing to pre-tax dollars if they are currently using post-tax dollars? Why has this been kept so secret?
There is nothing secret about it — salary sacrificing with pre-tax dollars has been a highly publicised strategy for years. Keep in mind, too, that under the superannuation guarantee legislation, 9 per cent of the gross amount (that is, pre-tax) of ordinary earnings must be paid to a superannuation fund. However, under an industrial agreement, there can be a requirement to pay either pre-tax or post-tax contributions. For example, some defined benefit funds require a certain amount of pre-tax or post-tax contributions in order to receive final superannuation benefits. For a detailed understanding of your situation, the trustee of your fund should be able to explain it to you.
Noel Whittaker is the author of Making Money Made Simple and numerous other books on personal finance. His advice is general in nature. Readers should seek their own professional advice before making decisions. Email: firstname.lastname@example.com.
I am 60 and expect to be made redundant next year, and do not expect to be able to find another job. I have some super and $90,000 in term deposits and want to reduce tax. If I started a self-managed super fund, would I have to wait until I am 65 to access it? If I accessed it before then, would I have to declare that I was no longer working, and would I have to exhaust all my super before I could claim a Newstart Allowance if I were unable to get another job? Would the costs of a SMSF offset any tax benefits?
If you are made redundant after age 60, you can access your superannuation immediately but you would need to take advice and proceed carefully. If you started an income stream from your super, the whole balance would be assessable by Centrelink and this could have an adverse effect on your Newstart Allowance. Currently, money in super is not assessed by Centrelink until the member reaches pensionable age, but there is also a liquid assets waiting period of 13 weeks — there is also an income maintenance period, which means you probably will not be eligible for Newstart in the early stages.
The simplest way for you to save tax would be to keep as much money in super as possible. The same legislation applies to retail super funds and self-managed super funds, so the question is what you would gain by starting your own fund. On the information supplied, there appears to be no benefit to you in doing this. I appreciate this is all quite complex, so make sure you involve your adviser every step of the way.

The lights are on
A group made for the Nintendo fans to talk about the 3DS. Share your thoughts, opinions, and all around love for Nintendo's handheld.
Hey guys! I was curious about your thoughts on the Nintendo Video app for 3DS. Other than saying the UVPHACTORY "Drown in the Now" video was SO awesome, Dinosaur Office is funny, and Yans & Gans kind of stupid, what do you guys think of the interface? Four random video-like things just pop up and disappear at will, and it could be anything from 3D Net clips like sweet skateboarding or car racing, funny cartoons, music videos or that hella-lame Haunted Halloween mining town thing..... It's just a really odd feature.... I mean I like having it, and watching what Nintendo uploads to it, but it seems kind of weird that you can't save anything you really like, or even customize what fills those four boxes, if say you want just cartoons or 75% music videos or whatever.... What do you guys think? Also, if you see anything on Nintendo Video you think is really awesome, stupid or just want to share a thought on, this would be a good forum to comment on the app. I like that you get Gold Coins in Club Nintendo for downloading Nintendo Video, and the app itself is always sort of interesting, just odd that you have no content control or ability to save or tab things you'd like to see again later.... And "Drown in the Now" rocked!! 3DS is awesome!
i don't like Nintendo video cause it craps up the internet at my house so i un-install it and i don't really regret doing it tbh:)
I liked the Kid Icarus: Uprising promotional anime, but I eventually deleted it to make room for stuff I actually used. It's flawed, though I did like some of the videos.
Peaceful Days died, Let's Survive
I think it's a fifty-fifty for Nintendo Video. Half of the videos are good and half of them are bad. I think the UI is alright. I really only watch Dinosaur office and some of the music videos. I don't care about the 3D channel clips and previews for movies.
On Nintendo Video (3DS): a pretty cool video from Osaka Popstar and the American Legends of Punk!

Shane threatens Jack, Aubrey gives Bo information, and Clint wonders if Viki's ready to date...
Shane approaches and taunts Jack in the cemetery. It's too bad Victor can't answer Jack's questions about who killed him. "Must suck being dead," Shane snaps and calls Jack a liar. Shane knows Jack didn't see who knocked him out and admits, "It was me." He blames Jack for Gigi's death and aims the gun at him. Shane describes knocking Jack out and pointing the gun at him on the night of Victor's murder. Jack wonders why Shane didn't shoot him. Shane saw Jack's keys on the ground and looked toward the mansion door. "Holy crap," Jack interrupts Shane's thoughts. "You killed my father." Shane thinks it's only fair that Jack lost his father, considering he killed Shane's mother. Shane orders Jack to fess up to Gigi's murder and threatens to kill him if he doesn't. Jack denies killing Gigi and cowers as Shane waves the gun at him. Shane cocks the gun and admits he didn't kill Jack that night because he wanted to know what his mom's last words were. Since Jack won't tell Shane, he'll make sure Jack joins his father in the ground.
At Capricorn, Aubrey tells Bo that Cutter lied. He told her he turned the gun over to the cops. "It was Rex Balsom's," Aubrey admits and explains how she and Cutter found the 9mm. She thinks Cutter still has it and plans to use it to blackmail Roxy or Rex. Maybe Echo and Roxy hid the gun to protect Rex. Aubrey doesn't know where Cutter is, but she can bet he's working on a new scam. Later, Shaun joins Aubrey. They talk about her breakup and toast to Aubrey's fresh start.
At the Buchanan Mansion, Rex watches Echo panic over the missing gun and asks, "I thought you got rid of it?" Echo explains what happened and how she hid the gun. Who could've taken it? They realize it must've been Shane. When they can't find Shane, Rex wonders if his son killed Victor. Rex thinks maybe Shane took the gun to finish the job by killing Jack. Rex rushes toward the door and finds Bo on the other side. They got a lead on the gun that killed Victor. It was Rex's. Rex confesses. Echo cries that Rex's confession won't help 'him'. Bo puts two and two together and whispers, "Tell me about your son." Rex admits Shane took the gun. He wonders what Bo will do if Shane killed Victor?
Cutter enters the room at the special care facility and holds the photo of Kim and Stacy next to Stacy's new face. He can't believe how much Stacy looks like Gigi. Stacy had plastic surgery to get to Rex. Kim admits Echo gave her a paper. Rex signed the Buchanan fortune back over to Clint. Kim tries rushing Cutter off. She wants to go give the paper to Clint. Cutter refuses to let Kim give Clint anything. He plans to take the fortune back for himself. Aubrey dumped him. He didn't tell Aubrey about Kim having the gun. Cutter was only going straight for Aubrey, who doesn't want him anymore. "It's time to embrace the real me," Cutter says. If Kim doesn't hand over the paper, Cutter will tell everyone who Kim's little friend really is. What does Kim think Clint will think when he hears about Stacy? She'll go straight to Statesville. She fears for what'll happen to Stacy. Kim hopes when Stacy wakes up, she can convince her to turn back to herself. "How can you be sure this isn't Gigi Morasco?" Cutter asks.
Over at Llanfair, Clint tells Viki how Cord compared them to him and Tina. He wanted Viki to know in case Cord tried pushing them back together. Viki thinks the thought of them reuniting is ridiculous, considering Kim's back in his life. He brings up why Kim returned, so he could help her friend. Clint knows Viki thinks Kim's setting him up and explains how he enlisted Rex's help. Viki's surprised. Rex thinks Kim is somehow connected to his messages from Gigi. Viki's glad Clint and Rex connected, even though he hit a dead-end in Kentucky. Clint hasn't heard from Kim since. Clint may be on house arrest but suggests it's time Viki got back into the world of dating again. She objects. Clint leans in close. Is there some reason Viki doesn't want to meet someone new? They both agree they're fine with how things are between them. Viki makes some popcorn and shares a new DVD with Clint. Over talk of Rex, Clint admits he's grateful to his son for giving him Gigi's heart. Though Clint misses his work at Buchanan Enterprises, he's happy with his life now, right there at Llanfair.
