text: Track history: Harold Brasington had a dream in 1949 that he could turn an old cotton field in Darlington, SC into a super speedway for stock car racing. His friends and family thought he was crazy, but, he and his crew spent a year shaping the 1.366 mile speedway. Brasington often drove the bulldozers and grading equipment himself. The original planned track layout was a normal oval, but the owner of the land didn't want his minnow pond disturbed. The track was narrowed at the west end to allow for the pond, giving Darlington its egg-shaped design. Brasington expected about 10,000 fans for the first race in 1950 and was shocked when 25,000 fans packed the speedway.On September 4, 1950, the first Cup race, the Southern 500, was run at Darlington Raceway. It became an annual Labor Day weekend race up until 2004 when it was moved to November in a swap for a California Speedway event.In 1960, a second Darlington race, the spring event, was added to the schedule and the track hosted two races up until 2005. In that year, the fall race was dropped from the schedule. A new Darlington tradition was started for the spring event that same year and continues today. Since the race is on the eve of Mother's Day, several mothers of the participating drivers serve as grand marshals and give the command: "Sons and daughters start your engines!"Darlington Raceway is known as the track "Too Tough to Tame", which is why drivers never forget a Darlington victory. It's a track where, without warning, one could get his "Darlington Stripe" after getting too close to the wall. It is definitely a driver's track.After the 2007 Cup race at Darlington, the entire track underwent a complete resurfacing. Paving began in mid-January, took nearly 15,000 tons of asphalt to complete and replaced a surface that was laid in 1994. All of the bumps were removed and, during a test of the new smooth surface in March 2008, speeds had increased to 200 mph at the end of the backstretch. Track Quick Facts (courtesy NASCAR Media):Last five winners: Jimmie Johnson 5/12/12, Regan Smith 05/07/11, Denny Hamlin 05/08/10, Mark Martin 05/09/09 and Kyle Busch 05/10/08.First Cup start here (Active drivers): Terry Labonte 9/4/78 and T.J.

No. 41 Oldsmobile to start on the pole of the 3-wide 75 car field in the 1950 Southern 500. He led 22 laps of the 400 lap event but crashed on lap 275. Johnny Mantz started 43rd in the No. 98 Westmoreland 1950 Plymouth, dominated the event by leading 351 laps and finished 9 laps ahead of runner-up, Fireball Roberts.May 7, 2011: Regan Smith won the SHOWTIME Southern 500, his first victory in 105 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races. The No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Chevrolet driver started 23rd in the lineup and scored his second top-10 finish in 2011. Drivers leading at least 10 of the 370 laps: Race-winner Smith 11 laps; No. 1 Jamie McMurray 13 laps, finished ninth; No. 39 Ryan Newman 28 laps, finished fifth; No. 29 Kevin Harvick 47 laps, finished 17th; No. 99 Carl Edwards 57 laps, finished second; No. 18 Kyle Busch 78 laps, finished 11th and Pole-sitter No. 4 Kasey Kahne led the most laps (124) and finished fourth.May 12, 2012: Jimmie Johnson won the Bojangles' Southern 500, his 56th victory in 374 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series races. This was the No. 48 Chevrolet driver's first victory and eighth top-10 finish in 2012. It was his third victory and 10th top-10 finish in 14 races at Darlington Raceway. Drivers leading at least 10 of the 368 laps: No. 56 Martin Truex Jr. 25 laps, finished fifth; No. 5 Kasey Kahne 33 laps, finished eighth; No. 18 Kyle Busch 44 laps, finished fourth; No. 11 Denny Hamlin 56 laps, finished second; Pole-sitter No. 16 Greg Biffle 74 laps, finished 12th and Race-winner Johnson led the most laps (134).Fantasy games won't allow you to pick all track favorites so Mid-Pack Attack is here to help. A mid-packer may not win the race but has as good a shot at a top 20 finish as track favorites Carl Edwards, Jeff Gordon, Denny Hamlin and Jimmie Johnson. There were 44 cars on the preliminary entry list for this weekend's Cup race. Here are our picks for Saturday night's Bojangles' Southern 500 in Darlington, South Carolina.Mid-Pack picksJeff Burton has visited Darlington's Victory Lane six times in Sprint Cup and Nationwide Series competition between 1997 thru 2002. He swept both Cup events in 1999 and both NNS events in 2002. Burton finished the 2012 edition of the Southern 500 in 18th place. With only about 12 laps to go in the 2011 race, and while running around 12th place, Burton's engine expired (credited with a 33rd place DNF). His worst finish in the previous five starts at Darlington was a 12th place. In 30 Cup starts here, he's averaged a 12.3 finish; in the last seven, he's averaged a respectable 14.2. He also ran 25 NNS races at this track, averaging a 10.3 finish. Four of those races resulted in victories (three of them consecutively). That makes the No. 31 Chevrolet driver our kind of guy for a Darlington top-20 run.Darlington Raceway is a Ryan Newman track. While he has yet to find victory lane at the 1.366-mile oval, he has impressive statistics at the "Track Too Tough To Tame." Newman has scored top-five finishes in half of his 14 starts at Darlington, and also has nine top-10s. Over the last 10 Cup races here, he has earned the fourth-most championship points of all drivers entered in Saturday night's race. He has one Cup pole at Darlington, which came in August 2003. In addition to the pole, Newman has qualified in the top-10 in all but three races at the South Carolina oval. Find a spot on your roster for the No. 39 Chevrolet SS this week.Regan Smith's last three Sprint Cup starts at Darlington Raceway resulted in a 2010 17th place, a 2011 victory and a 14th place in 2012. The Nationwide Series regular posted two top-10s and a pair of 22nd place finishes in four Sprint Cup races this season. It is his turn behind the wheel of the No. 51 Chevrolet SS again this week. Smith, the current leader in the NNS point standings, will be getting in about 200 extra "practice" laps in Friday night's NNS race before taking on the Cup guys on Saturday night. Consider the No. 51 as a fourth or fifth pick this week. For our final pick, we're going with the wily veteran, Mark Martin. In 46 Cup dances with the 'Lady in Black', he carried a 12.4 average finish. This includes two wins, two poles, 17 top-five and 26 top-10 finishes. Over his last 10 starts, Martin's average finish was a 10.7 which included a win (2009) and a worst finish of 20th (2012). So far in 2013, he is holding up his end of the ride-share deal at MWR by scoring top-15s in five of seven starts in the No. 55 Toyota Camry. He was on his way to another one at Richmond before being taken out by the No. 5 while running in the top-10. We think Martin is a good choice for a top-20 or better on Saturday night.

Formed in 1986, the original
line-up recorded 2 albums and 2 singles before attrition and lack of
endurance claimed the lives of bassist Mike Corso and drummer Adam Berg.
Berg was replaced with ex-Cows drummer Tony Oliveri and Corso with
Eric Polcyn, creating a now-even-more-nightmarish-and-ferocious unit,
ultimately coming to fruition on 1990's acclaimed double single, Join
Satan's Army. War on Everybody, an aural autopsy of the world as
we know it, and the band's third album followed closely. God Bullies.
Fronted by the uh, "charismatic"
singer/psychopath Mike Hard, have established themselves as one of the most
popular live bands on the club circuit, especially in their native Midwest,
where faith in a higher power seems to ebb and flow with their coming and
going. God Bullies. Shifting from former label AmRep to the West
Coast's Alternative Tentacles, released album number 4, Kill the
King, another dark and churning release, but not without a touch of
humor. This album will reach out and lift you into a state of ecstasy, then
crush all hope like some ripe grape under an extremely heavy object. God
Bullies. Simply that.
Bullies suffered an untimely demise a few years back (nothing to do with
the Religious Right, or so we're told). Mike Hard and friends went on to
form Thrall.Thrall laid low for awhile, but they came back in to full
swing in 2000 and will be releasing a new album before summer 2001! Amen. See also Thrall and Queen Bee.

Radiation therapy (also called therapeutic radiology or radiation oncology) uses X-rays, gamma rays, and charged particles to fight cancer. Like surgery, radiation therapy is used in several ways depending on the type and location of the cancer. Certain levels of radiation work to destroy cancer cells or prevent cells from growing or reproducing. This treatment may provide a cure for cancer, control the disease, or help relieve its symptoms. Most radiation treatments do not make you radioactive. Talk with your doctor about any precautions you should take when getting radiation therapy.
Although each hospital may have specific protocols, radiation therapy usually begins with these procedures:
Radiation therapy is given through different methods, depending on the type of cancer, the location of the cancer, and the patient's health. Sometimes, radiation therapy is used in combination with other treatments. The following are some of the different types of radiation therapy with brief explanations of their goals:

Breastfeeding Promotion Associated With Improved Verbal Intelligence Quotient at Age 6.5 Years
Breastfeeding is known to provide important advantages for infant and child health and development. Some studies have even suggested breastfed babies score higher on IQ tests, but it is an area that needs more review.
Researchers from McGill University and Queen's University in Canada designed a study to follow breastfed infants for six years and evaluated intelligence levels. The study, published in the May edition of Archives of General Psychiatry , found that children who were breastfed the most were more likely to score higher in verbal intelligence tests.
About the Study
Researchers studied 17,000 mother-infant pairs from 31 different hospitals in the Republic of Belarus. They followed the pairs for over six years. The mother-infants were randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group had a specific breastfeeding promotion intervention while the other followed usual infant feeding practices.
Of the mothers who received the intervention program, 43% were exclusively breastfeeding at three months, 7.9% were exclusively breastfeeding at six months, and 19.75% were still breastfeeding at 12 months. Of the mothers who followed the usual infant feeding program, only 6.4% were exclusively breastfeeding at three months, 0.6% were exclusively breastfeeding at six months, and 11.4% were still breastfeeding at 12 months.
After 6.5 years, 14,000 children were still participating in the trial and were tested for IQ. The children in the intervention group scored 7.5 points higher on verbal intelligence quotient (IQ). The difference was considered significant. Children from the intervention group also scored slightly higher in performance IQ, full-scale IQ, and teacher ratings for academic performance but these differences between the groups were not significant.
How Does This Affect You?
This study suggests that along with its other many benefits, breastfeeding may play a role in verbal intelligence development. The breastfeeding promotion program also appeared helpful in helping more mothers breastfeed longer compared to mothers in the other group. A similar program in your area may assist you in breastfeeding your baby.
Breastfeeding is a personal decision each new mother will make. Talk to your doctor about options for feeding your new baby.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) could "significantly increase" its revenues by performing more correspondence exams than field exams of taxpayers earning more than $200,000, according to a recent recommendation by the Government Accountability Office (GAO).
Due to the heightened attention to federal deficits, increased pressure has been placed on the IRS to reduce the tax gap—the difference between taxes owed and taxes paid on time—and better enforce taxpayer compliance, according to the GAO.
The Accountability Office recommended in its December paper that the IRS review disparities "in the ratios of direct revenue yield to costs across different enforcement programs and across different groups of cases and consider this evidence as a potential basis for adjusting its allocation of enforcement resources each year." IRS agreed with the recommendations, according to GAO.
While the IRS spends most of its enforcement resources on examinations, correspondence exams of individual tax returns, which target fewer and simpler compliance issues, are significantly less costly and more productive on average than the broader and more complex field exams, GAO found.
GAO estimated that the average cost (including overhead) of correspondence exams opened in 2007 and 2008 was $274, compared with an average of $2,278 for field exams. "IRS spent almost 20% of the $1.6 billion per year that it devoted to exams on returns from taxpayers with positive income of at least $200,000," GAO states, "even though such returns accounted for only 3% of the 136 million individual returns filed per year." It added that positive income is an IRS measure that disregards losses that may offset the income.
For the two years of cases reviewed—using data from 2007 and 2008 tax returns—GAO estimates that correspondence exams were "significantly more productive in terms of direct revenue produced per dollar of cost than field exams. Both types of exams of taxpayers with positive incomes of at least $200,000 were significantly more productive than exams of lower-income taxpayers."
GAO demonstrates in its paper how these estimates could be used to inform resource allocation decisions. For example, GAO says, "a hypothetical shift of a small share of resources (about $124 million) from exams of tax returns in less productive groups … to exams in the more productive groups could have increased direct revenue by $1 billion over the $5.5 billion per year IRS actually collected (as long as the average ratio of direct revenue to cost for each category of returns did not change)." These gains, the GAO continues, "would recur annually, relative to the revenue that IRS would collect if it did not change its resource allocation. This particular resource shift would not reduce exam coverage rates significantly and, therefore, should have little, if any, negative effect on voluntary compliance."

Participating in sports is great for children and adults, both physically and psychologically. Sports can increase physical coordination, fitness, and self-esteem. In addition, sports can teach important lessons about teamwork and self-discipline.
However, because children's bodies are still growing and their coordination is still developing, children are more susceptible to sports injuries. Approximately 3.5 million children ages 14 and under are treated for sports-related injuries each year. Half of all of those injuries can be prevented with proper use of safety gear, changes to the playing environment, and the establishment of sports rules that help prevent injuries.
Most sports injuries occur due to the following factors:
The following are general safety precautions recommended to help prevent sports injuries:
Safety gear should be sport-specific and may include such items as goggles, mouthguards, shin-elbow-knee pads, and helmets. The safety gear should fit properly. In addition, sports equipment (such as bats, baskets, and goals) should be in good working condition and any damage should be repaired or the item should be replaced. The playing area should be free from debris and water.
To make sure you or your child is physically fit to participate in a particular sport, a physician should conduct a "sports physical." These physicals can reveal physical strengths and weaknesses and help determine which sports are appropriate.
Starting a child in sports at too young an age may not benefit the child physically. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that children begin participating in team sports when they express strong interest and you feel they can handle it. Age and size shouldn't be the only measures used. Also consider their ability to understand the concept of rules and teamwork. Keep in mind that no two children are alike, and some may not be ready physically or psychologically to take part in a team sport until they are older. A parent should base his or her decision on whether to allow the child to take part in a particular sport based on the following:
Note: AAP recommends that late-developing teens avoid contact sports until their bodies have developmentally "caught up" to their peers' bodies.
Sweat lost during sports must be replaced with equal amounts of fluids, usually 1 to 1 1/2 liters per hour of intense sports activity. You or your child should drink fluids before, during, and after each practice or game. To avoid stomach cramps from drinking large amounts of fluids at once, drink about one cup of water (or a type of sports drink) every 15 to 20 minutes. Drinks to avoid include those with carbonation and caffeine.
The following are the most common symptoms of dehydration. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
If you or your child exhibits signs of dehydration, make sure you or he or she receives fluids immediately, as well as a snack. The symptoms of dehydration may resemble other medical conditions or problems. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.

WINNIPEG — The Winnipeg Council of Rabbis says the city's Rady Jewish Community Centre is sending the wrong message to young people about Jewish observance with its recent decision to open on Saturday mornings.
The rabbis – Alan Green (Shaarey Zedek Synagogue), Larry Lander (Congregation Etz Chayim), Neal Rose (the Simkin Centre) and Ari Ellis (Herzlia Adas-Yeshurun Synagogue) – responded to the JCC's mid-December move with a Jan. 9 letter on the front page of the city's Jewish Post and News.
The rabbis said that they understand what prompted the decision to open at 8 a.m. instead of noon on Shabbat, as was the previous practice.
"We appreciate the obligation to serve the needs of Rady Centre members, many of whom are not Jewish, and the vast majority of whom are not Sabbath observant," they said. "We also appreciate that the decision to open Rady Centre facilities on Shabbat morning will have little if any impact on synagogue attendance on Shabbat morning."
Their objection, they said, is rooted in "the symbolism of this change," since the centre had "originally refrained from… opening on Shabbat" and later "from opening on Shabbat morning," which, they said, "signalled a laudable intent on the part of the community at least to acknowledge the ideal of Shabbat observance."
They added that this intent was "praiseworthy… given that neither the administration nor the membership of the Rady Centre is oriented in a particularly Shabbasdik direction."
The rabbis said that such "decisions not only affect the current generation of Winnipeg Jews, but also, our generations yet unborn… How much further down this road is it prudent for us, as a community, to travel? And what kind of message are we currently sending to our young people, about the incorporation of Jewish values into their lives?"
Rabbi Ellis, whose congregation is Orthodox, told The CJN that the troubling JCC move raises the questions of "how important is Shabbat observance in our community and what kind of community do we want?"
In response to the rabbis' letter, JCC executive director Gayle Waxman noted that the majority of JCCs in North America are open Saturday mornings. "Most Canadian JCCs, including those in Toronto, Montreal and Calgary, are open Saturday mornings," she said.
Waxman said the JCC made the decision after extensive research and much consultation over a long period of time.
"We recognize that there are those who may not support this decision, and we respect that," she said. "We feel it's important to maintain a respectful dialogue within the community where all viewpoints are expressed."
She added that the majority of the feedback has been positive, from both Jewish and non-Jewish members.
In a statement on the centre's website, JCC president Eric Sawyer wrote, "I know that many members have indicated that they would like to work out on Saturday mornings, and I am pleased that we are able to respond to this request."
He added that "as is the current practice, there will be no exchange of money on Saturdays. Payment for any programs or services will need to be made prior to Shabbat."

You haven't moved off the couch in 48 hours and your phone died, rendering your Twitter account worthless. Meanwhile, sports smack-talking maniacs have been using social media and other outlets to vent on fellow combatants. Athletes are fighting writers. Writers are fighting writers. Athletes are fighting fans. This is where Busted Coverage steps in on a weekly basis. The gatekeepers. If someone is in a sports-related war, we're all ears. If you know of a sports-related beef, we want to hear about it. There are no sports beefs too small for The Schoolyard editors. Try us. email@example.com Who Could Possibly Hate This 20-Year-Old Bikini Model?

"The SI models hate her," an insider tells Us of the voluptuous cover girl, 20. "They are jealous, but Kate's also been a ***** to them in the past." In fact, things are so icy between Upton and the other models that they won't socialize with one another even when they're sitting just a few feet apart. At a 1Oak party in Las Vegas on Feb. 14, Upton kept to herself while the rest of the ladies chatted among themselves. "She didn't interact with anyone," an onlooker says. "She wasn't friendly."

"I had some really good teammates and friends, but outside of the football world I didn't interact much with the other kids." He also had off-the-field issues at Harvard.

Guy Who Just Lost Super Bowl Fight Combatants: 49ers OL Anthony Davis vs. Terrell Suggs Fight Details: Suggs, talking on San Francisco's KNBR 680-AM to promote his movie, eventually was asked about the 49ers Super Bowl offensive line play. Asked if the 49ers were "fake tough guys," Suggs started rating players. Suggs was then asked if he believed that the 49ers' offensive line had some fake tough guys. "They've got one fake tough guy," Suggs said. Pressed further, Suggs praised San Francisco starting left tackle Joe Staley and starting left guard Mike Iupati. He was then asked about starting right guard Alex Boone, who Suggs called "solid." When told that leaves Davis and center Jonathan Goodwin, Suggs said, "Goodwin is pretty good." Which led to Davis unleashing cluster f-bombs. Fight Scorecard: Suggs wins via TKO after Davis runs out of f-bomb tweets somewhere around the 9th round. Filed under: Lead Marquee, Schoolyard

FS#1027 - Rectangle with a 3 point determination ...
Opened by Husky (Husky) - Tuesday, 25 February 2014, 21:57 GMT+2
Many times I'm faced with the situation that I have to use a rectangle related to other entities. Dimensions/Angle = unknown.
We have in QCAD a rectangle tool with a two point diagonal determination but this is limited to two points and it will only work in a horizontal and vertical direction.
My feature request is based on the idea to draw a rectangle with 3 points - regardless the angle.
1. First point: start
2. second point: determination of the first side (width?) and it will also provide the angle for the rectangle
3. third point: determination second side (height?)
I'm asking for an additional new tool? No - just as an option to the existing rectangle tool ...
So basically, add a rotation field for angle ?
No - the first and second point will provide the angle for the rectangle.
So a Polar coord field ?
No - please check the attached pictures and try to imagine to draw the white rectangle just with your PC mouse.
#1 = first click, #2 = second click, #3 = third click with the left mouse button. And you can use the snap function for all those clicks ....
So on the 3rd click you are determining the angle by manually locating a point related to another entity to set the final angle ?
Sounds okay, but you might as well have an extra field for angle input as well, in circumstances where you might need to be specific and not set the angle related to an existing entity ;)
OK - now we are no longer talking about a simple 3 point rectangle tool.
Yes I would also like to have an extra field for angle input but then - we have to go the whole hog!
NOW I like to have 3 tools ...
1. A new rectangle tool, 3 points, free angle (as described),
2. Modifying the existing 2 point "Rectangle tool"(RE) with an option box "restricted" to x, y or not (= free rotation),
3. Modifying the existing "Rectangle with size tool"(RS) with an additional option to use a given angle value or to keep the orientation restricted to x,y

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- As a basketball player, Allen Iverson was a phenomenon. First at Georgetown University, where he played for coaching legend John Thompson, then in the National Basketball Association, where he starred for the Philadelphia 76ers, Iverson was a hoops magician. A Sixer's game was a must-see event when Iverson was in his heyday, and fans reveled in his speed, poise, charisma and ability to knock down the game-winning shot again and again. He was paid handsomely for his efforts. Iverson earned $154 million in his 14-year NBA career, according to Sports Illustrated. Yet today, Iverson is broke, and heavily in debt -- for now. The former all-star made news this week as his $4.5 million Atlanta mansion was set to fall into foreclosure after he defaulted on the mortgage. What happened to Iverson, and what lessons can Americans take from his financial fall from grace? There are many, but here are some of the most important ones: Don't live beyond your means: Financial advisers are in unison on one kitchen-table financial topic -- you can't spend more than you earn. But that's what Iverson did. According to papers filed in a recent lawsuit, and published by TMZ.com: Iverson earns approximately $60,000 per month, yet spends about $350,000 per month. The legal report says Iverson spends about $10,000 per month on food and clothing; $10,000 on restaurants and entertainment; and $1,000 on dry-cleaning bills. Don't take your eye off the ball: Funny to say this about a basketball legend, but Iverson regularly avoided the financial basics and "took his eyes off the ball." He habitually splurged on purchases he didn't really need and wound up paying the price. For example, Iverson's bank account was seized last year after he couldn't pay more than $860,000 he owed to a jewelry store. Don't lose control of your finances: On the personal financial front, Iverson was his own worst enemy. In his recent foreclosure case, he claimed he never agreed to the mortgage loan for the Atlanta mansion -- that his wife actually signed the loan papers. In Kitchen Table Economics 101, you always know where your money is and where it is going. Iverson failed that test, and spectacularly so. Get professional financial help: One smart move Iverson did make was to hire a financial adviser, who may just save the day for the former superstar. The New York Post reports that a financial adviser parked some of Iverson's assets in an investment portfolio that Iverson could not touch until age 55. The Post said in March that the portfolio is estimated to be worth $32 million. Iverson's financial mishaps don't make him a bad person. But the lessons learned from the former NBA great paint a picture of a squandered financial fortune, thanks to some basic money management mistakes. Those are lessons worth learning no matter how much money you have in the bank.

PML is a rare progressive disease of the nervous system. PML is caused by a viral infection of the cells that produce myelin.
PML is caused by a specific papovavirus, known as John Cunningham (JC) virus. Many people get this infection in childhood. It produces no illness and generally does not infect the nervous system. It reactivates later in life in people who have suppressed immune systems. The virus damages oligodendrocytes, the cells in the central nervous system (CNS) which produce myelin, the material that wraps around nerves. Less myelin around the nerves impairs nerve function.
Risk Factors
PML is most common in people with suppressed immune systems. Suppressed immune systems may be the result of:
- HIV/AIDS (most common)
- Leukemia and lymphoma
- Organ transplant
- Cancer
- Chronic steroid therapy
- Rare, inherited immunodeficiencies
- Certain medications, such as natalizumab, a medication used to treat multiple sclerosis (MS)
Symptoms progress over weeks and may include:
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done. Tests may include:
- MRI scan—used to take images of brain structures (key in the diagnosis)
- Lumbar puncture—to evaluate cerebrospinal fluid
- Blood and urine tests
- Brain biopsy
Treatment focuses on strategies to improve the immune system. If you have HIV, your doctor will most likely prescribe antiretroviral medications to treat this condition. If PML has resulted from the drug natalizumab, your doctor will have you stop taking this drug and may recommend a plasma exchange to remove the drug from your blood system.
There are no current guidelines to prevent exposure to the JC virus. If you have a suppressed immune system, follow your treatment plan to minimize your risk.

Dell Leveraged Buyout May Hinge on Cash Hoard Outside U.S.
Michael Dell's plan to take his computer company Dell Inc. (DELL) private may hinge in part on whether he's able to exploit one of the company's most valuable assets: as much as $14.2 billion of cash and bonds outside the U.S.
Like many of the world's largest technology companies, Dell has legally avoided billions of dollars in income taxes by attributing profits to overseas subsidiaries in tax havens. Bringing the cash back to the U.S. to finance the buyout would risk subjecting the money to the 35 percent corporate income tax rate, with a credit for any foreign income tax they've already paid.
"You can be sure the buyout team is looking at the most effective way that asset can be used. They're spending hours and hours on this," said Antony Page, a professor at Indiana University's Robert H. McKinney School of Law and a former mergers and acquisitions lawyer. "There may be loopholes in there that sophisticated tax lawyers can find that aren't immediately obvious."
A group including Michael Dell and private equity firm Silver Lake Management LLC is in talks with banks to raise the cash to purchase the Round Rock, Texas-based company in a leveraged buyout, people with knowledge of the matter said this week. Michael Dell, 47, is the company's founder, chairman and chief executive officer, and he owns about 15.7 percent of the stock, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. David Frink, a spokesman for Dell, said the company doesn't comment on speculation.
Cash Abroad
Dell, the third-largest maker of personal computers, rose 21 cents to $12.82 in Nasdaq Stock Market trading yesterday, its market capitalization reaching about $22.3 billion. At that size, it would constitute the largest leveraged buyout since 2007.
"Substantially all" of the computer maker's $14.2 billion in cash and investments was outside the U.S. as of Sept. 30, according to a regulatory filing. That included about $11 billion in cash and cash equivalents such as money market accounts, and $3.2 billion of bonds and other investments.
Dell also had about $9 billion in short- and long-term debt as of Sept. 30.
U.S. companies have accumulated at least $1.6 trillion overseas in earnings untaxed by the federal government. Since 2010, they have lobbied on and off for a tax holiday on returning those earnings to the U.S.
'Killer B'
Over the years, U.S. companies have employed a variety of tax-planning techniques for bringing that cash back to the U.S. while still avoiding the income-tax hit. The strategies have spawned colorful nicknames, inspired by the relevant sections of the tax code, like the "Killer B" and the "Deadly D."
Some companies have found ways of using a merger transaction to repatriate cash without triggering certain taxes. Merck & Co. (MRK), based in Whitehouse Station, New Jersey, brought more than $9 billion from abroad through its 2009 purchase of Kenilworth, New Jersey-based Schering-Plough Corp., routing the money through Dutch subsidiaries, Bloomberg News reported in 2010.
"There are ways of doing it in the context of a buyout or merger that are more flexible than what you can do in the normal operation of a business," said Reuven Avi-Yonah, a tax professor at University of Michigan Law School.
Tax Bill
Even pledging the offshore cash as collateral for a buyout loan could amount to "repatriation" and trigger a tax bill, said Robert Willens, an independent tax consultant based in New York. So companies often skirt this rule by instead pledging the stock of their foreign subsidiaries that hold the cash, he said. They can pledge as much as two-thirds of the equity before the cash is considered repatriated, he said.
"Dell is hoist by its own petard. They have systematically played the global tax avoidance game, and now find themselves with cash just beyond their reach, at least without taking a big tax and financial accounting hit," said Edward Kleinbard, a professor of tax law at the University of Southern California, and former corporate tax attorney at Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP. "No doubt Michael Dell will urge Congress to let him off the hook by way of another repatriation holiday."

TORONTO — Alleged subway fraudster Israel Aharanovitz remains in custody as police receive increasing numbers of calls from victims.
As of Jan. 23, some 60 to 70 people had come forward with complaints of being scammed, said Det. James Turnbull of the Toronto Police Service.
"I've never had that many," he said.
One of the calls came from a woman who recalled a run-in with Aharanovitz in New York City in 1987 or 1989.
"She remembered he scammed her before," Turnbull said.
Given the volume of calls he's received, he still hasn't been able to return them all, he added.
So far, Aharnovitz, 63, faces nearly 70 charges of fraud under $5,000.
Police allege he targeted mostly women in the Jewish community while in subway stations.
"He purported to be a visitor from Israel then asked for a loan to help him out of a financial dilemma," police allege. "The victims would turn over a quantity of money to the man."
The sums ranged from $40 to $1,000.
Aharanovitz, a native of Israel, was arrested Jan. 9 at the Glencairn subway station after police saw him approach several women. Initially, he was charged with four counts of fraud under $5,000.
Police believed there were more victims, and appeals to the public resulted in the large number of people responding with information about the suspect, Turnbull said.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 416-808-1300, or to call Crimestoppers at 416-222-TIPS (8477). They can also go online at www.222tips.com, text TOR and leave a message to CRIMES (274637).

Taking place from November 24th to December 2nd 2012 the week saw more opportunities provided for players with intellectual disabilities. The aim of this week as always, is to promote and expand opportunities for adults and children with intellectual disabilities through basketball, while breaking down barriers to inclusion and acceptance.European Basketball Week is possible through the support of FIBA Europe, Euroleague Basketball and its One Team Program, National Basketball Federations and clubs across Europe. 2012 Basketball Week involved 17,500 athletes, 5,000 volunteers and families in 32 European countries. The Week is one of the highlights of the year-round event calendar and is part of Special Olympics' on-going commitment to increase the number of registered basketball players in Europe to 60,000 and 600 additional volunteer coaches by the end of 2013. Basketball for EveryoneThe theme for 2012 was "Basketball for Everyone" as European Basketball Week is about creating opportunities and promoting widespread participation of players with and without intellectual disabilities at all ability levels through Unified Basketball®. The week also marked International Day of People with Disabilities on December 3rd 2012.Over 220 local and regional events took place across European cities and towns and more than 20 national tournaments. Clinics with professional players, coaches and referees were also key events of the week. As part of the partnership between Special Olympics and Euroleague Basketball initiated in 2009 and newly supported by its One Team Program, Euroleague matches on November 29th and 30th and December 6th and 7th are dedicated to Special Olympics."FIBA Europe continues its endorsement of Special Olympics Basketball Week because sport plays an important role in society and touches many people in a highly positive and participatory way. Special Olympics use sport as a catalyst to transform the lives of people with intellectual disabilities and to promote respect, acceptance and inclusion. I hope European Basketball Week 2012 is the biggest and most inclusive yet so that more players with intellectual disabilities get an opportunity to take part." Olafur Rafnsson, President FIBA Europe"Basketball Week is possible through the generosity of FIBA Europe, Euroleague Basketball and its One Team Program. It is a hugely important week in the Special Olympics calendar with basketball being one of the most popular sports among our athletes.

capircvd is a voice/fax gateway. It receives fax (G3) and voice-calls using an ISDN-Bus, an AVM ISDN-Card (active or passive) and CAPI20 from isdn4linux, or AVM. It can be used on either P2P (with DDI) or P2M S0-bus. After reception, it can process files (send as mail) using an external handler (included).
gnu.hylafax implements the HylaFAX client network protocol in pure Java. With it, Java applications can access a HylaFAX server in various ways, such as queueing FAX jobs, checking server/job status, and retrieving FAX files. The gnu.hylafax distribution also includes gnu.inet.ftp, a pure Java implementation of FTP client protocol (RFC0959).
HylaFAX is a fax and paging system for Unix. It supports sending facsimile, receiving facsimile, polled retrieval of facsimile, transparent shared data use of the modem and sending alpha-numeric pages. The software is structured around a client-server architecture. Fax modems may reside on a single machine on a network and clients can submit outbound jobs from any machine that can communicate with the machine on which the modems reside. An access control mechanism is included to control which users on which machines may access a server.
The mgetty package contains an intelligent getty for allowing logins over a serial line (such as through a modem) and receiving incoming faxes. The companion program sendfax is used for sending faxes from the commandline or from other applications. The third main component is vgetty/vm which can be used with a voice-capable modem to implement an answering machine, a voice menu system, and similar things.
SffTools consists of SffToBmp, a little utility that converts Structured Fax Files to BMP, PBM, JPEG, or single- and multipage TIFF format, and SffView, a GUI viewer for those files. The tools should be especially useful to people who are faxing with ISDN cards because the CAPI interface of these cards generates such files. CAPI support for Linux is available for the active card AVM B1 and the passive card AVM Fritz!.
smbfax is a Unix server which allows you to print via Samba from a Windows client to a hylafax-controlled faxmodem on your server without any additional Win32 software for the client. It's as easy as File->Print from an application, choose the network fax printer, then check your email's INBOX. You can also view and delete jobs via the standard Windows methods.
TkUsr is a small program that allows you to manage the Self-mode of USR/3Com Message/Professional modems. You can use it to retrieve voice messages and faxes. It features smart retrieving with a cache system, so you do not have to download the whole memory when you only want a single fax.
VOCP is a complete messaging solution for voice modems, with voicemail, fax, email pager, DTMF command shell and Text-to-Speech support, 4 graphical interfaces, and a Web interface. Callers navigate the system using a touch-tone phone and may send and receive faxes, voice mail, and pager messages, listen to text/HTML email messages, or execute configured programs on the host and hear the resulting output.

This week, Nashville served as host to the megawatt benefit concert "We're All for the Hall," a special show for the Country Music Hall of Fame spearheaded by Keith Urban and Vince Gill. Carrie Underwood was just one of the stars on the bill, performing Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You," as well as her own 2007 hit "Last Name."
Regarding the latter tune: Do you know what actually inspired it? Although it's hard to believe, a short-lived fling was the catalyst for the Grammy-winning single.
Take it from Underwood herself. The superstar told the "All for the Hall" crowd the story behind the song before performing it.
"Before I met my beautiful, wonderful, perfect hockey husband [Nashville Predator Mike Fisher], I had met this guy. I got together with [songwriters] Hillary Lindsey and Luke Laird to write, and we were goofing around like we always do. I was telling them about this guy I met. They asked who he was, and I said, 'Y'all! I don't even know his last name!'"
She continued: "We hadn't even dated or anything and it didn't turn out the way this song did, but I said, 'We need to turn this mess into a song!' And this is it."
The lyrics of the song are a bit over-the-top to be autobiographical, detailing a one-night stand (It started off, "Hey cutie, where are you from?"/And then it turned into, "Oh no, what have I done?"/And I don't even know his last name) that culminates in a quickie Vegas marriage (I don't even know my last name).
However, exaggerated or not, the song stands out in Underwood's catalog. Unlike fellow country megastars such as Taylor Swift, Underwood has previously said she never writes music about her past relationships.
In 2009, when she was asked by Esquire if the song "Cowboy Casanova" was about ex-boyfriend Tony Romo (as rumors had it), she flat-out denied the speculation. "I would never immortalize a guy that did me wrong," she said. "I would never give him that much credit."
Perhaps this means the little fling that inspired "Last Name" ended on a good note? At any rate, Underwood and the event's other participants — Reba McEntire, Darius Rucker, and Kacey Musgraves, just to name a few — ended the evening on a good note, helping to raise around $600,000 for the Country Music Hall of Fame.

What's happening in your clients' minds when they can't commit to a plan that you both know they need? In the February issue of Investment Advisor, Olivia Mellan uncovers just that. Mellan talks to researchers and thought leaders in the brain behavior field to find out what happens to your clients' brains when they make decisions—or try to.
We also talk to Mark Travis of Intrepid Capital about how the notoriously volatile small-cap space can pay off without undertaking an undue amount of risk. Fixed income helps a little, but never underestimate the value of experience and understanding.
How often have you put together a great financial plan focused on your client's wishes, your client thanks you and takes it home, but then never gets around to implementing it? It's not laziness and understanding the science behind your client's brain and how decisions are made can help you get clients moving.
Olivia Mellan, with contributions from Sherry Christie, talk to authorities at the crossroads of neuroscience and psychology to share their views of what goes on in the brain when people make up their minds.
Southern Charm in the Small-Cap Space
Don't let the easy-going, good ol' boy charm fool you. When not in the office, you'll find Mark Travis competitive skeet shooting or surfing waves off the Northeast-Florida coast. The Jacksonville-based money manager went to the University of Georgia, and loves SEC football and Tim Tebow (can this guy get anymore cliché?).
However, raise the topic of investment management, particularly the small-cap space, and the "aw shucks" attitude quickly fades. His command of the sector makes him deadly serious. He has to be, after all; to outperform in notoriously volatile small caps takes some doing. The fact that he focuses on fixed income tempers that volatility somewhat—but only somewhat. Editor-in-Chief John Sullivan sits down with Travis to talk about reducing volatility in this notoriously volatile space.

See OpenDesign news:
This is very interesting news,the majority of staff and students work with Microstation for their designs etc. before bringing them to me for laser cutting and so on - so to add support in QCAD for the .dgn format could prove to be quite useful.
How long would something like this take to implement?
I need to look at the new OpenDesign library version first. In the best case, DGN import is identical to DWG import, in the worst, it requires some data conversion for entity data, layer data, etc. All I've seen so far is a press release.
Thanks - It will interesting to see how things pan out with this.
I've managed to import my first DGN file into QCAD 3.
Clive: do you happen to have any real-life DGN files I could use for testing? They are much harder to come by than DWG/DXF files... Thanks!
See attached - a couple of .dgn files and a couple of snap shots of what they should look like.
Hope this helps.
.dgn file -Drawing 1 test
hmmm -its not letting me upload the .dgn files here, I`ll try and send them via a pm on the forum.
lets try a zipped file instead!
Thats got it ;) - I think the extension .dgn is the problem here.
Same samples but hopefully unprotected, so you test for editing etc...
Thanks. The import is not perfect, but I didn't expect that either. It looks good enough to be included in the next QCAD 3.x release.
Not bad at all, please put me on the list for the next release testing.
Talking about releases - please take a look at the latest post here regarding CamExpert:
DGN import has been disabled for now since it crashes with the new Teigha 3.8.2 release.

Bear is a lightweight remote automation tool for Groovy/Java/JVM. It allows you to deploy projects, setup your cluster, and install software to your remote machines. It differs from other existing tools in that it uses a programmatic approach - your deployment is a regular Java class. It also uses static types, chained method calls, FP, and fluent programming techniques.
wsh allows you to execute commands on multiple machines in parallel. It is secure and fast, and even outperforms ansible. It works by having an agent live on the machine. When you run wshc, it sshes and execs wshd and sends commands over the encrypted channel. wshd executes the commands and sends the results back.
Ansible is a radically simple deployment, configuration, and command execution framework. It is dead simple and painless to extend. Extending Ansible does not require programming in any particular language; you can write modules as scripts or programs which return simple JSON. It's also trivially easy to just execute useful shell commands.
RunDeck is a command automation hub that helps you automate ad-hoc and routine procedures in data center or cloud environments. It allows you to run tasks on any number of nodes from a Web-based or command-line interface. It also includes other features that make it easy to scale up your scripting efforts, including access control, workflow building, scheduling, logging, and integration with external sources for node and context data.
