Actress Shriya Saran is making a comeback to Tamil silver screen today. The Tamil version of her bilingual film Chandra is being released by Abirami Ramanathan all over Tamilnadu.
The Kannada version released last year and garnered positive reviews and decent box office collections. The film touted as a historical fantasy film has been directed Roopa Iyer.
Shriya Saran has acted as a princess in this film. It's a character which is well versed in various art forms as well as self combating techniques. Shriya has learnt Kalaripayattu, an ancient Indian martial art for her role in this film.
For an actress generally known as a glamour girl who has proved her performance skills in a few films, this film is expected give equal importance in both the departments as suggested by the trailers.
Shirya debuted as a second heroine in Enakku 20 Unakku 18 and went on pair up with many leading heroes and stars during her hey days. She has also got the pride of pairing up with Superstar Rajnikanth in the Shankar directed film Sivaji.
She was last seen in the 2011 film Rowthiram in which she paired up with Jeeva. Despite the moderate performance of the film at the box office, Shriya could not get any offer in Tamil after that.
If Chandra hits the bulls's eye it will pave way for the re entry of this pretty actress

Here's a question: do you fancy some free money?
If your answer was "Yes, please", then congratulations, you're a typical British voter.
Ask voters if they would prefer a tax rise or a tax cut, and you don't have to be Albert Einstein to work out what most people will choose for their own personal finances.
Ask those very same voters if they want more of taxpayers' money to be spent on vital public services like the NHS, schools, social services, roads, railways, housing – indeed, pretty much anything – and the answer will also be a resounding Yes.
Tax cuts and more spending is what voters want. And so that is usually what politicians tell them they will get.
Which is of course a big fat lie because it is nigh on impossible to do both – certainly not in the long term – and particularly when you're a government facing a £1.4trillion debt mountain.
And yet our politicians will keep looking us in the eye and telling us that we can get more for less, and we will look right back at them and, like the long-suffering but devoted wife of an interminable adulterer, we will choose to trust them and believe that this time things will be different.
This past couple of days have provided a classic example of this nudge-nudge-wink-wink game that politicians and voters play with each other.
In the wake of George Osborne's final Budget of this Parliament on Wednesday, both the Tories and Labour are now facing demands for them to be more honest with voters about what they are really planning to do after May 7.
The highly respected Institute for Fiscal Studies (IFS) has called on Mr Osborne to spell out precisely how he plans to cut welfare spending by £12billion in the next Parliament so voters know what and who will be hit hardest.
And Labour don't fare much better as the IFS also criticised them for their plans to tackle the deficit amid suspicion that their "less explicit" plans would actually involve more hefty borrowing (and therefore higher interest costs) than Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls is currently admitting to.
The trouble with spelling out specific cuts – as both Labour and the Tories have learned to their cost in the past – is that, in doing so, you also spell out specific victims of those cuts. And while there is no reward from voters relieved it isn't them who will be hit hardest, there is an instant penalty from voters who do pay the price.
Do voters deserve more honesty from politicians? Absolutely. But honesty works both ways. If we want our politicians to be honest with us, we need to stop punishing them at the ballot box for telling us the cold harsh truth.
We must stop allowing ourselves to be bought off with pre-election bribes and promises of jam today, with yet more jam tomorrow.
We're constantly being told that voters have lost trust in politicians because they don't tell us the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
But we'd much rather be told a pack of soft-soaped lies than face up to the fiscal realities of 21st century Britain.
So it's all very well for economists to call for all the political parties to tell voters their post-election spending plans in full, but is it really any wonder that they don't? After all, we voters have a very poor record when it comes to rewarding politicians who are honest with us. Indeed, the British electorate has a long and ignoble tradition of punishing the political parties that are.
In the run-up to the last general election, the Tories saw their poll lead crash to single figures in December 2009 after they were honest about their plans for deeper, faster cuts than Labour was planning in a bid to cut the vast national debt.
Despite their honesty, this rare openness about how serious the financial situation really was did not get rewarded by voters. Quite the opposite. Voters deserted the Tories in their droves and it took some time for them to recover their poll lead – and then only after they pretended to backtrack on their plans to slash public spending.
Moments after settling in behind their desks in Whitehall, of course, the Coalition ministers announced that, oh dear, things were much worse than they'd thought and now they would have to instigate all those cuts after all.
And Labour weren't much better, insisting things weren't as bad as they really were only for the lie to be exposed when the outgoing Labour Chief Secretary to the Treasury, Liam Byrne, penned a handwritten note to his successor, saying: "Dear Chief Secretary, I'm afraid that there is no money. Kind regards and good luck."
Whoever gets into power after May 7, whether it's a majority, minority or a coalition government, one thing we can be sure of is that what happens next will have very little to do with what they tell us before polling day.
Why? Because our politicians will have lied to us once again. And once again we will have chosen to believe them. They don't tell us the truth because, to paraphrase Jack Nicholson's character in A Few Good Men, we can't handle the truth.

Sweet Rally: Kevin's Pup Makes His Way Into Our Hearts
Kevin Farley loved Rally to the utmost. Rally was his baby. Rally was his steadfast companion and adoring black Labrador retriever. Wherever Kevin was, there you'd often find Rally. And that included the office where Kevin worked. Rally would sit under Kevin's desk and take a nap while Kevin worked. His desk also happened to be next to the kitchen. Rally made lots of good friends who would sneak tasty treats to him on the sly (or in the open).
Rally would attend meetings at work, often unbeknownst to colleagues who were surprised after the meeting that Rally was laying under the conference table the whole time. Rally is so well behaved for the most part and unassuming, so similar to Kevin.
After Kevin passed away (far too young, far too soon), Rally entered our lives. It hasn't taken long for Rally to fully tug at our hearts and be so loved. We have not had one single hiccup in his integration into our home. Our dog Koa was a bit tentative at first, but for the most part they both know their place in the family and respect each other's territory.
We have a great routine now. Our youngest daughter feeds breakfast to both Koa and Rally every morning. She teaches them good manners by having them "sit" and "stay" until they are properly called by name to their foodbowl upon which they both eat with gusto.
I take them for a morning walk for about one to one and a half miles. They are mostly off leash and free to explore. Rally is learning to wait at the intersection before crossing. We reward him with a treat when he follows our command at the street to cross.
He is very attached to me since I'm the one who's home a great deal of the day. He's become my shadow in more ways than one. Since he's so black, I cannot see him and nearly fell to the ground when I discovered he snuck into our bedroom at night and was sleeping right next to my bed.
He has found his favorite place to sleep and hang out during the day. He loves to look out the window and take naps on the window seat with nice thick cushions. It's a great perch for him as he can see all the action outside and see me as I type away.
All in all, Rally has made his way into our home, and definitely, into our hearts.

Chair of Governors.
Co-opted Governor (02/12/2015 – 02/12/17)
I am a parent and my son is currently in year 11 at Allerton Grange, having joined the school in year 7. I have been a governor in the Primary Sector since October 2006 and have held the post National Leader of Governance. I work for IBM and I currently manage a global team reporting on and evaluating the effectiveness of education delivered internally. I also tutor on courses covering Professional Development Skills to our graduate intake. Previously, I have worked in a variety of roles including IT Support, Computer Programming, Project Management and Financial Analysis & Management. I also have a PGCE and have taught in the Adult Education sector.
Parent Governor (05/06/15 – 04/06/19) Vice-chair
I have a son in year 10 and a daughter in year 7 in Allerton Grange. Apart from the important qualification of being a parent I have over 20 years' experience of professional work on equality and inclusion in multi-cultural societies. I have worked in academia as a research fellow and also in the voluntary sector with organisations such as the Young Foundation and Oxfam. I have been a trustee of three voluntary organisations, and worked as the manager of an international research project on teacher education.
Head Teacher (20/04/15 - )
Local Authority Governor (01/09/14 – 01/09/18)
Allerton Grange is very important to me. I started my teaching career here in 1971, moving on after nine very happy years. My two sons attended Allerton Grange before going on to University. I owe Allerton Grange a great deal and have been proud to serve as a governor for many years, with several years spent as Chair of Governors. The progress made by our school in the last few years has been particularly exciting.
Co-opted Governor (15/07/14 – 15/07/18)
I am the treasurer of Leeds Islamic Centre and the manager of Al ~ Khidmat Centre. I am also on the board of Lantern Learning Trust, of which several local primary schools are members.
Co-opted Governor (07/09/14 – 07/09/18)
I was first appointed to Allerton Grange Governing Body in 1986 as a parent Governor when my two daughters attended the school and spent 12 years as Chair. Since then, I have been a co-opted governor. I have previous experience as the FE Governor of City of Leeds and Primrose Hill Joint Governing Board, where I spent 10 years (5 years as Vice Chair and 1 year as Chair). I originally worked as a teacher for 6 years at the school before moving into FE and then finally to Leeds University in the Department of Education.
I am currently linked with the SLT member who is responsible for Pupil Premium students. I have been a member of Strategy & Resources Committee and Teaching, Learning and Support Committee as I am retired from work and able to attend the school during school day.
Co-opted Governor (11/07/16 – 10/07/18)
As an experienced former Deputy Headteacher/Acting Headteacher coupled with my experiences as an independent Education Consultant, I provide quality, reliable, supportive as well as challenging additional capacity to the Governing Body. I bring rigour, organisation, commitment, flexibility and excellent communication skills in the areas of school improvement.
With the ongoing changes in education and the OFSTED framework, I strongly believe that the areas that are high risk to the school are: Standards, Leadership and Management at all levels, self-evaluation and the quality of Teaching and Learning, thus ensuring that the school provides value for money and a quality education service to the students, staff and the wider community.
I ensure that I am up to date with the latest trends, legislation and initiatives in education. My practice and feedback from centres with whom I have worked closely is that I am honest, transparent, patient and resourceful. I believe in sharing good practice both within and across organisations. A key part of my work is to monitor, review and evaluate, not only the colleagues with whom I work, but my own contribution to avoid complacency. This is important in ensuring that the Headteachers, Principals, Governing Bodies and other key staff receive consistent information and guidance to keep the organizations moving forward, thus impacting positively on student outcomes.
Co-opted Governor (10/07/2017 - 16/05/2021)
I have been teaching since 2006 and am currently a Lead Practitioner of English and an SLE (Specialist Leader of Education) at a secondary school in North Yorkshire. As a local resident and parent of two young children, I'm keen to get involved in the community as much as possible. I helped set up and am on the committee of Roundhay Junior Parkrun, where I can regularly be found volunteering on a Sunday morning. I look forward to supporting Allerton Grange, combining my expertise gained from working in schools and my commitment to the local area, as it moves from strength to strength.
Co-opted Governor (10/07/17 – 09/07/21)
I am originally from Leeds, and a former pupil of Allerton Grange. I have specialised in defending serious crime since 1993 when I was admitted as a solicitor. I was called to the bar in 2016. I now practice as an independent barrister, and I am now a Crown Prosecutor. I have over 23 years' experience in advising in a wide range of serious criminal and associated matters. I have also been involved in a wide range of regulatory cases. I am a resident of Roundhay, and my wife and I have a young son. I am also a keen sportsman, and member of a local running club and squash club. I am pleased to be a governor at my local high school that I attended myself. I hope to make both staff and students proud to be a member of the AGS learning community and improve the aspiration and outcomes for students from any background.
Co-opted Governor (10/07/17 – 09/07/21)
I have a son who is now in the 6th form at Allerton Grange.
I am a former Assistant Head teacher, experienced English teacher, Moderator and Examiner.

Parent Governor (05/06/15 – 04/06/19)
I have two children at the school, one in year 10 and one in year 8.
I am currently the Programme Director for the MA Corporate Communications, Marketing & Public Relations at Leeds University Business School.
Parent Governor (05/06/15 – 04/06/19)
I am a trustee on the board of a small community organisation called CATCH. I am a Family Support Worker for a cluster in west Leeds. I have also just started working as a helpline worker for the forced marriage organisation called Karma Nirvana.
I have previously served as a governor and chair of governors on the governing body of Hovingham Primary School. I have also served as a non-executive director on the board of East Leeds PCT.
I ran an Asian women's support group, Ohmeed, on a voluntary basis, as well as having the roll of Treasurer on the management.
Newly elected staff governor -
I have worked at Allerton Grange since 2015, and during my time here, I have tackled numerous challenges, developed new initiatives, and was successful in applying for a promotion after only six months. I was also nominated as colleague of the year last year, which I can honestly say was my most honoured moment, in my working life so far.
I have a number of interests and hobbies, I go bouldering, I enjoy walking, wild swimming and love going on camping holidays. I have a great desire to help people and make a difference and believe that that is why I have such a passion for my job. It is never easy and day to day hurdles can be tough, but I enjoy the challenge and I'm excited to see what my time here will bring.
I care about my future, I care about the students and I care about Allerton Grange.
Parent Governor (07/07/15 – 06/07/19)
I am an elected parent Governor linked to special education needs at Allerton Grange. I am currently in my second term, having started as a Governor in the summer of 2011.

The findings of this presentation will assist the understanding of factors that influence retention and graduation for college students from rural and urban areas. This presentation describes the analysis of the retention and postsecondary pathways of rural and urban students who attended a large research institution between the years of 2010 and 2016. This project used de-identified enrollment data from a large, urban research institution and the National Student Clearinghouse. These data were analyzed to reveal the similarities, differences and outcomes for students who were but are no longer attending a large research institution, with a focus on students originally from rural areas. The National Student Clearinghouse data provides information on student transfers to another institution and if applicable, their performance (if they were retained or graduated) at the other institution(s). Particular attention was paid to the performance of urban versus rural students, which is determined by the Rural-Urban Density Codes (Isserman, 2005). Descriptive statistics, logistic regression and visual plots are used to communicate results from the data.

The RCMP has just released some new statistics that aim to broaden the level of information we have about murdered and missing Indigenous women. Oddly enough this release comes amid calls for the resignation of the current Minister of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development, Bernard Valcourt.
Before I begin with this article, I would like to remind the readers that these are real women. They are not faceless statistics. They are mothers, daughters, sisters, aunties and grandmothers. They are our friends, our cousins and our family. Therefore, when discussing this issue we must always remember that they are not just some statistic to be thrown around aimlessly.
Here is a photo of two friends of mine, Maisy Odjick and Shannon Alexander who have been missing for 7 years. These women are daughters, friends and family. They are real people and not just some statistic. Hopefully this can remind us and remind my self to keep this conversation respectful for both the women and their families.
This new information released by the RCMP reports that 70% of murdered Indigenous women are killed by Indigenous men. At face value this statistic is very troubling. As it shifts blame back onto Indigenous communities. Specifically Indigenous men. This stifles any effort that Indigenous leaders are putting into having a national inquiry. The argument I am sure will be presented by the Minister that taxpayers should not front a bill for a national inquiry when this is "obviously" an issue we Indigenous people have created for ourselves. Luckily, some of us in this world know better than to take things at face value. Unlike news agencies like the National Post who feel as though spreading statistics without any qualitative data is helpful. It's odd that I am again dealing with the National Post when it comes to bad journalism. However, many outlets are pushing this story as though the statistic is plain and simple. Well it's not. This article will show how this 70% statistic is misleading and why an inquiry is necessary to prevent misinformation like this from capturing Canadian audiences.
For this analysis we are going to use the same statistics given to us by the RCMP in 2014:
I will begin by highlighting that Indigenous women in Canada make up 4.3% of the female population. Yet, represent 16% of all female murders on record and 5% of all murders in Canada. The current number that the RCMP has disclosed regarding missing and murdered Indigenous women is 1,181. With 1,017 being murdered which is not a number to be taken lightly and 184 missing. With that being said those numbers are debated among some. As some have argued the number goes well over 1, 200 women.
Now one issue here is that many including the RCMP and the Federal government will now assume that this 70% statistic is a clear-cut marker of the problem. The problem with that is that this statistic only represents the solved cases of murdered Indigenous women. It does not address the unsolved cases and it does not address the cases of missing women. Some of whom may be declared dead, yet not murdered. Meaning we have 225 unresolved cases if not more that we know nothing about in relation to whom the perpetrator is. This is probably the biggest issue with how this statistic is being presented. Since the way the statistic is worded is as if all murdered and missing Indigenous women are being taken from us by Indigenous men. However, this is not the case. What the RCMP is really saying is 70% of murdered Indigenous women, who are murdered by men and the murders are solved; are committed by Indigenous men. We discussed that there is disagreement over the actual numbers being presented to us about how many women have been actually murdered and are missing. This means we cannot take this statistic as pure factual evidence. Rather, its more of a guesstimate. Based on a guesstimate of how many women have actually been murdered.
It is important to know that these statistics do not include numbers of unreported missing women. Nor does it include the numbers where cause of death has yet to be determined.
The RCMP made another significant statistical error when releasing these numbers. Which is they made it seem as though 100% of cases involving murdered Indigenous women are committed by men. However, as their same statistical report from last year tells us; 89% of murdered Indigenous women are murdered by men, leaving a margin of 11% of murders being committed by women. Now I am not trying to shift blame here. Rather trying to show that the 11% which the RCMP failed to add to their 70% statistic would have had a skewing effect on the numbers they released. Since they claimed that the perpetrators are men and are 70% Aboriginal, 25% non-Aboriginal and 5% unknown ethnicity, whatever that means. This comes up to 100%. See how this becomes a misleading stat?
Another issue here is that the RCMP chose to specify the ethnicity of Aboriginal perpetrators while leaving every other ethnicity out of the picture. 25% non-Aboriginal, does that mean caucasian or black? Furthermore, what does unknown ethnicity mean exactly? I would also beg to ask the question of how they determined the Aboriginal ethnicity of 70% of the offenders while obviously being unable to determine who the non-Aboriginals are and who the other perpetrators are exactly. Were all the Aboriginal perpetrators card-carrying status Indians or did they self identify when arrested?
This identity issue leads us into another issue. The Federal government has power over who can be called an Aboriginal or not. They also oversee RCMP operations. So the question becomes what criteria has the Federal government put on the RCMP is determining the ethnicity of offenders. If someone identifies as Aboriginal at the police station do we just automatically say okay and mark that section off? This is a huge issue which of course could skew the numbers again.
Finally, to really understand the systemic problem here we have to examine where the RCMP is truly failing Indigenous women. That is on the streets. As only 60% of sex trade related deaths are solved. This 70% statistic makes it seem as though Indigenous men would be committing these crimes as well. However, as a study done by the International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology (IJO) has shown; white men are more likely to partake in prostitution. Furthermore, a study done by the non-profit Prostitution Research and Education; has shown that 21% of males who partake in these activities do so because of racial or sexual stereotypes associated with the women they are exploiting. So if we want to analyze statistics, it could be argued that the driving force behind the sex trade in Canada is white men, who are playing out ideals of sexual stereotypes of Indigenous women. Furthermore, it is often these women who are forgotten. It is often these women whose deaths and disappearances will not be reported, as we saw in the Pickton trial. What this all means is that there is a huge gap in the statistics which are complied and presented to the public by the RCMP. That gap is in relation to prostitution and the systemic issues surrounding that part of our society. I would be very confident in saying that excluding a detailed analysis of women who are murdered while in the sex trade would of course mostly implicate Indigenous men. Since excluding a discussion around that excludes the countless number of white men who may be implicit in the sexualization of Indigenous women and in the unresolved or unreported cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women. More importantly the women forgotten in this case are the most vulnerable of the vulnerable.
All in all this article has attempted to show that statistics cannot be taken at face value. They must be analyzed and examined, hence why an inquiry is necessary. Without proper examination of the statistics given to us, these statistics will cause more harm than good. Therefore, an inquiry where all of these issues are discussed and presented will give us a full and detailed insight into the biggest social problem in Canada.
But, let's not play fools here. Bernard Valcourt needed data to back his claims that we Indigenous men are the real monsters here, especially amid calls for his resignation. He needed to show that it's not Canada's problem, it's an Indian problem. Therefore, a miraculous statistic showed up to back his claims. The nature of how this statistic came to be must be questioned in that RCMP broke protocol to protect the credibility of a politician. That, in and of itself, is an issue that must be questioned and examined to better determine how and where this statistic came from.
Whatever the numbers may be, Indigenous men are involved at some level with the disappearances and murder of Indigenous women. We as Indigenous men need to address that and take some responsibility on some level with regards to that. However, it is not as simple as some like Bernard Valcourt would make it out to be. Many systemic and social issues exist as a direct result of colonization. These issues have perpetuated violence in Indigenous communities and cannot be simply dumbed down to simple concepts like a lack of respect for Indigenous women by Indigenous men as Bernard Valcourt claimed. Althought, that may exist in some situations which does need to be addressed. We cannot sweep these things under the rug because its too hard to deal with our own implications towards our mutual suffering. Addressing these things will help. We need to start looking in as well as out.
Regardless, none of what I have just said should affect the general discussions and actions taken to prevent Indigenous women from coming into harms way. Whether or not Indigenous men are truly to blame does not matter at the end of the day. These women's lives matter and must be the first priority. Therefore, let us not let this cloud the reality that Indigenous women are dying at the hands of men. White, black, yellow, brown – all still men. At its core, men are the problem. Therefore, it is an issue needs to be tackled and the blame need be on all men. Not on certain types of men as was done in the south during an era of immense racism, which saw black men become sexual monsters that white women should be afraid of. Is that where Canada is headed? Are we going to sexualize Indigenous women and make monsters out of Indigenous men? I hope not. Yet we may already be in that period.

ItsJustSomeRandomGuy did a great job last year, with using Iron Man, Hellboy, Hulk and Batman in his videos comparing their movies. Iron Man came out pretty early, and TDK came out pretty late, so he had material the entire summer, as he had a lot of movies, with a lot of material. This year, the only two superhero movies were Watchmen, which came out in early March and X-Men Origins: Wolverine, which came out in early May. While he was able to do a lot of videos in between then, after Wolverine came out, then died in the box office, he had no more superheroes to do anything with. So, he made do, and had Spider-Man dream of the Marvel/DC crew being in Star Trek, basically making an amalgam of the trailers, along with his own twist. So, when in the trailer, Pike tells Kirk he couldn't believe it when the bartender told him Kirk's name, in IJSRG's version, Superman (Pike) tells Peter Parker (Kirk) the same thing, with the bartender then saying, "Dude, that's Peter Parker," and Superman responding with, "I can't believe it." After Star Trek, he decided to do more, as he had nothing else to do. So, he did Terminator: Salvation, and then did some more with the Hangover, Up, Drag Me to Hell, The Proposal, Transformers, Inglourious Basterds, District 9 and GI Joe. Why am I so in love with these? Well, after using Deadpool in a Watchmen/X-Men Origins: Wolverine parody, he used him more and more, with him in every single one of the trailers above except Drag Me to Hell and District 9 (well, Transformers and GI Joe were both Spidey complaining about how Marvel no longer owns the rights to them now that they are doing well in theaters, and not actually parodies). Thus, my love for them. If you want to relive the summer movie season or just missed it, then I recommend these parodies of the trailers. Plus, he's done some other good Deadpool stuff, so check out the Deadpool/Watchmen video, the cast vs cast of X-Men/Watchmen, the Disney-Marvel video and the Green Lantern-Deadpool video for some more good Deadpool videos.

WASHINGTON — Four former San Diego officials have agreed to pay civil penalties totaling $80,000 to settle charges with the Securities and Exchange Commission that they were negligent in misleading investors about the city's pension and retiree health care liabilities.
The settlements, which were agreed to earlier this year but not publicly released until Friday, mark the first time issuer officials have had to pay civil penalties in connection with an SEC enforcement action. U.S. District Judge Dana Sabraw must still sign off on the settlements, according to the San Diego Union Tribune, which reported on them Wednesday morning.
Though the SEC had originally claimed that the former city officials intentionally misled investors, the four individuals agreed to settle the matter by consenting to lesser charges of negligence and to the civil penalties. They did not admit or deny the SEC's allegations, but are enjoined from further violations of the securities laws.
The four former officials are: former city manager Michael T. Uberuaga; former city auditor and comptroller Edward P. Ryan; former deputy city manager of finance Patricia Frazier; and former city treasurer Mary E. Vattimo.
Uberuaga, Ryan and Frazier each agreed to pay $25,000 in civil penalties and Vattimo agreed to a $5,000 penalty.
No settlement has been reached with a fifth individual, former assistant city auditor and comptroller Teresa A. Webster, who was also charged with securities fraud in the SEC's April 2008 lawsuit. She is reportedly still negotiating with the SEC.
If agreed to by Sabraw, the settlements would bring the SEC and city a step closer to concluding enforcement cases that were first sparked when the city revealed in early 2004 that it had not disclosed to bond investors the extent to which is had underfunded its employee pension plan. The consequences included SEC sanctions against the city, announced in November 2006.
According to the SEC's original complaints, which were filed in federal court in April 2008, the five former officials knew that the city had been intentionally under-funding its pension obligations so that it could increase pension benefits but defer the costs. They were aware that the city would face severe difficulty funding its future pension and retiree health care obligations unless new revenues were obtained, pension and health care benefits were reduced, or city services were cut, the SEC said.
The complaint said that the former officials specifically knew that the city's unfunded liability to its pension plan was projected to dramatically increase, growing from $284 million at the beginning of fiscal year 2002 to an estimated $2 billion by 2009, and that the city's liability for retiree health care was another estimated $1.1 billion. But the officials failed to disclose these and other material facts to rating agencies or to investors in bond offering documents and continuing disclosures.
The complaint alleged that Uberuaga signed the closing letter for one of the bond offerings, falsely certifying that it was accurate and did not contain any misleading statements. Ryan signed letters falsely representing that the city's audited financial statements included in the securities offering documents were accurate.
Frazier regularly reviewed and revised the allegedly false and misleading disclosure documents, and signed the closing letter for two of the five bond offerings, the SEC said. She falsely certified that the disclosures were accurate and did not contain any misleading statements. Additionally, she reviewed and made presentations to the rating agencies.
Webster, who has not settled, reviewed the city's financial statements that contained some of the false and misleading disclosures, and Vattimo participated in drafting the city's false and misleading disclosures. Additionally, Vattimo and Webster both knew that in 2003, the rating agencies had concerns about the city's growing pension obligations and that those obligations could negatively affect the city's credit rating. Nevertheless, they withheld material facts from the rating agencies, the SEC said.

With only seven days to go until October 1 and the official launch of the new public health insurance exchanges, a number of questions loom large. The biggest, by far, is would a government shutdown threatened by congressional Republicans also shut down the exchanges?
The answer appears to be no, according to a July report by The Congressional Research Service, which stated: "It appears that substantial ACA implementation might continue during a lapse in annual appropriations."
"A shutdown per se doesn't stop the Affordable Care Act," Doug Holtz-Eakin, a former director of the Congressional Budget Office who now leads the American Action Forum, a Washington advocacy group opposed to the Affordable Care Act, explained to Bloomberg.
That's because the shutdown, which would also begin on Oct. 1, would only curtail discretionary funding, not mandatory spending on benefits such as Medicare and Social Security. The monies used to fund the ACA and the exchanges come out of this latter category, so exchange operations would not be impeded and people would still be able to enroll for insurance as planned.
Moreover a shutdown, seen by many Republican members of the House and Senate as a way to prevent the ACA and the exchanges from taking effect, could actually work in the new health law's favor. A Washington Post blog entry explains:
"Obamacare's first year will be full of glitches and hiccups and mistakes and misfires. That's true for every big, complicated law. The expectation is that Republicans will be able to take advantage of those problems. But if the early implementation comes in the context of an extended government shutdown, Republicans might well get blamed for implementation glitches as the media and voters ask whether the law wouldn't work more smoothly if the GOP hadn't turned out the lights."
Meanwhile, other critical questions about the impact of the ACA as the ability of the exchanges to operate and the readiness of the public to enroll come October 1 continue to swirl.
This story orginally appeared on HIX, a SourceMedia site focused on tracking tghe development of health insurance exchanges.

I TAKE goodness within this perception, the affecting of the weal of guys, which is the Grecians call philanthropia; as well as the term mankind (as it's utilized) is really a little too light expressing it. I call character, the inclination's routine, and goodness. This of benefits, and being the character of the Deity; dignities of your brain, is the greatest: and guy can be a hectic,, wretched that is mischievous factor; no a lot better than a type of vermin. Goodness confesses no surplus, but mistake, and solutions to the theological advantage, charity. In charity there is no excess although the motivation of strength in excess, caused the angels the wish of knowledge in excess, caused man to fall:; neither may angel, nor man, are available by it in john ger. The tendency to goodness, is produced seriously inside the character of male; insomuch, when it situation not towards males, it'll get unto other dwelling animals; because it is seen while in the Turks, a cruel people, who nevertheless are form to beasts, and provide alms, to puppies and birds; insomuch, as Busbechius reporteth, a Religious child, in Constantinople, had like to happen to be stoned, for gagging in a waggishness an extended-billed fowl. Problems certainly in this advantage of goodness, or charity, could be determined. The Italians have an ungracious Tanto val niente: so excellent, he is good for nothing. And one of the doctors of France had the assurance to include publishing, virtually in basic phrases, That the Christian belief, had given up excellent males, in prey to those who are illegal and tyrannical.

The example of Lord, teacheth the session He sendeth his rainfall, and maketh his sun to glimmer, upon the only and unfounded; but he doth not rain prosperity, or shine virtues and recognition, upon males similarly. Typical benefits, can be talk to all; but unusual benefits. And beware how for making the breakest the sample.

Team Tilray: Françoise Lévesque
Today we check in with our Master Horticulturist, Françoise Lévesque, a Quebec native who brings over 20 years of experience in horticulture to Tilray. Find out more about Françoise and her key role in the production of high-quality medical cannabis in today's Team Tilray video.
Video transcript: Françoise Lévesque, Master Horticulturist
Im not somebody who likes to be too active, I am very active at work, I give a lot of energy already so when I come home I really want it to be as relaxed as possible. We love walking by the water and we are very happy to be here because we can do this. Aside from that, a little music at times, I dont have enough time to practice as much as wish, but we both like to either listen or play music.
My name is Françoise Lévesque; Im the master horticulturist at Tilray. I have to look after the entire production program of medical cannabis. I really aim towards understanding every group of strains that we have in such a way that we know exactly how to approach the growing process, so that we can constantly deliver the same product. Its not a plastic plant, there is variation, so to be able to narrow down the variation to the least amount of it would be a dream come true.
I am an agronomist and plant scientist and I worked in a large-scale industry for pretty much all my life. I worked mainly in production of conifers, it was for reforestation. It meant something, you know, it meant something that I sent 250 million little tree seedlings back to the forest. So in my life, it means something, I contributed to the effort. I think that what I did bring to Tilray is that experience of systematic learning, one thing at a time, with data-drive decisions. Not only, I want to grow a very healthy plant and I want to improve the biomass and I want it to be consistent in its potency, all of a sudden it means that I supply a product that helps other people. Its the same way, when I come here and I look outside and I look at the ferry coming in, going out or else just the water, and Jeff is behind me playing music and I knit, I find it very contemplative and very relaxing.

The following list does not include all the examples where it would not be applicable but we've tried to cover some of the major examples to save you time:
Example 1: Sale prices - any item on sale is not applicable. Only full price items are applicable.
Example 2: Marketplace offerings - any item being sold for a fraction of its ordinary price on a marketplace like eBay.
Why are you introducing the price match?
We passionately believe that fashion accessories are overpriced and should be a lot more reasonable. It is easy for us to say we will be a fairly priced brand - the price promise forces us to live up to this billing on all our products, something we are very proud to do.

Review Details
GreenCaddis Ruby River Fiberglass Fly Rod
- Product Review (submitted on November 15, 2014):
I've been looking for a quality fiberglass fly rod for a while. When I found this webpage read the reviews of this fly rod I had to order one! Shipping was fast! I was very pleased with the packaging. A pleasant surprise was the included rod case and wrapping.
I have practice cast it and I can't wait to try it out on my favorite trout stream!

Housing & Residential Education understands affordability is a key component when students are deciding on where to live throughout their college career. Most schools across the country require that students pay for the entire semester up front. In order to be more affordable, we allow students to choose to pay on a month-to-month basis, or they can choose to pay the full semester cost up front.
Housing and meal plan charges are billed to the housing account prior to the beginning of each semester. Students can log into their Housing U portal prior to the beginning of the semester to see the total amount owed.

Your Housing Account
Housing Bill vs. Tuition Bill
Housing & Residential Education is completely separate from the tuition office (Income Accounting). You will pay Housing & Residential Education directly for your housing costs and you will pay Income Accounting directly for your tuition costs.
DR vs. CR… Explaining Your Housing U online account
When looking at your Housing U account online, as well as statements we send every month, you may come across a balance that is succeeded with a DR or a CR. If your balance has a DR after it, it means you have a debit balance, meaning you owe this money. If your balance has a CR after it, it means you have a credit on your account and additional payment is not due.

Late Fee

Ways to Pay Your Bill
- Pay online through your Housing U
- Financial Aid/Scholarship Transfer- Income Accounting does not automatically send excess financial aid/scholarship funds directly to housing. If you would like your excess funds to be transferred directly to your housing bill, you can select this option when filling out your housing application. [Excess means any financial aid or scholarship dollars that are over the cost of tuition. Tuition and fees would be covered first before anything is transferred to HRE.]
- Recurring payments are available. If you would like us to deduct your housing payment automatically on the 1st of each month, please call us at 801-587-2002 and provide us with your credit/debit card number.
- Visit the Housing & Residential Education office during business hours (Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.). We accept cash, credit/debit card and check payments in the office.
- Call 801-587-2002 to make a payment with a credit or debit card during business hours (Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.-5 p.m.).
- Mail a payment to, including the student name and student ID number in the memo section:Housing & Residential Education

Family Members Providing Financial Support
"I'm the one paying their bill, why can't you tell me their account total?"
This is a common question we receive from parents/guardians. We greatly appreciate your involvement and support of your student living on campus.
The housing contract is with the student and thereby the cost of housing is their responsibility. If a student has passed that responsibility on to another party, whether explicitly or inherently, then the student needs to take responsibility for releasing any information as well.
The university has a process for students to identify individuals that they would like to have access to certain pieces of information in the student's record. Within Housing & Residential Education, students can use this online waiver form to release financial information.
Student directions: If you would like Housing & Residential Education (HRE) to discuss your financial information with your parent/guardian so they can pay towards your account, please log in to the Campus Information Services page and select the link "FERPA RELEASE CONSENT" in the Finance section on the right-hand side.
After the release form loads
- Check Housing & Residential Education as an area of release.
- Create a PIN (which the person you are selecting to release information to will need to know when they call the office).
- Designate the individual(s) who you would like to release information to.
Parent Advice
Frustrations can arise if you are assisting in the financial support of your student and do not have the information you need. Creating a plan prior to the start of the year can help to alleviate these frustrations. Below are options that parents have used in working with their student on financial matters:
- The student logs in to their Housing U account to confirm the amount owed for the upcoming month. The student communicates this amount to the parent.
- The parent can then call HRE directly with a specific amount to be applied to the students account (801-587-2002).
- The parent can write a check and send it to HRE with the student's Student ID number on the check and the check will be applied to the student's account.
- The parent can provide credit card information to the student to utilize on their Housing U account to pay the bill each month.
- The parent can transfer money to the student's checking account and the student can write a check to HRE in our central office.
- If the student signs a FERPA waiver, the parent can call HRE directly, provide the PIN number the student set on their privacy waiver, to ask about the amount owed and make a payment over the phone or send in a check.
- A recurring credit card transaction can be set up by calling our central office, 801-587-2002.
- The University is currently setting up an E-Check process. This information will be available with the billing information in August.

Compulsive Hackers
Compulsive hackers are individuals who are driven by an addiction to hack institutions. They are Smart Alecks who cannot accept that institutional objectives have to prevail over personal goals.
Smart Alecks cannot add value. Maximal Strategies demand adding value to the environment to go beyond the existing boundaries of a business.
Smart Alecks are advantage takers that have an amoral behavior in order to profit from the environment.
This kind of behavior is the natural response of stagnant survivors when managing businesses.
Stagnant survivors are naturally "smarties" in order to live from the environment.
They are driven by anti-intelligence and anti-intuition having no ethical rules in their behavior.
They need to degrade the environment in order to justify their appropriation.
When they have a high IQ, they become extremely dangerous because their critics are very smart, fallacious and well disguised.

WWE Roadblock 2016: Best and Worst Moments
Kevin Owens has been able to thwart Seth Rollins' constant attempts to win his Universal Championship due to constant help from Owens' BFF Chris Jericho. This resulted in the referee asking the announcer to announce that the match would be going into a sudden death overtime. With seconds on the clock, Charlotte turns the Figure Four Leg Lock into the Figure Eight, and Sasha Banks is forced to tap out with:03 on the clock.
