Advanced analytics: Best practices for succeeding
Research by EY and Forbes Insights, as well as perspectives from GE Digital, IBM and SAP, explore the strategic use of analytics in business.
Advisory Services
Evolving your business. Globally.
As the world evolves, so do your business issues. The catalysts vary: from geopolitical events to regulatory reform, from new technologies to emerging markets.
And their impact can be swift and far-reaching. Our approach — grounded in industry-specific experience and committed to delivering measurable, sustainable results — can help you adapt and succeed. Even in an uncertain environment.
We can help you with:
- Information security in a virtual world
Business is moving into the virtual world as more and more data is transmitted over the internet, and cloud computing, social networking and mobile devices become more prevalent.
Our 14th annual Global Information Security Survey confirms that information security is one of the most important issues facing organizations today.
Overall, we have identified three trends with a significant impact on the role and importance of information security:
- Physical boundaries are disappearing as more business data is transmitted over the internet
- The pace of change continues to accelerate
- Companies are moving from the more traditional outsourcing contracts to cloud service providers
Are you prepared for the risks?
- Managing risk — for opportunities
We know you're concerned about the risks of regulation and compliance – especially if you're in banking or health care.
Meanwhile, as market volatility and pricing pressures unsettle the landscape, those forces are stimulating competition and creating opportunities.
To strike that balance between risk and opportunity, our research suggests that many leading firms are developing an overarching strategy that balances both.
Our work with clients reveals that there is a need to re-engineer the risk processes across the business, just as was done with finance, manufacturing, and supply chain processes.
The goal is to get better coverage on the risks that matter.
Learn more about turning risks and opportunities into results.
- Internal audit: enhancing and sustaining business performance
Companies value the role Internal Audit plays. But they are looking for more.
Executives want Internal Audit to not only see what has gone before, but also what comes next. They want Internal Audit to provide insights into strategic initiatives, and to share ideas that improve business performance. And they want it now.
Internal Audit as strategic advisor
As a strategic advisor, Internal Audit can:
- Identify company-wide cost improvements
- Offer recommendations that improve business performance
- Provide key insights that focus on risk
We can help you:
- Assess your Internal Audit function and identify areas of improvement
- Identify opportunities to enhance the strategic value of Internal Audit
- Accelerate improvements through cosourcing
Analytics based activities are deployed across the entire service delivery cycle of our Internal Audit engagements from the initial risk assessment to the execution of the audit to the continuous monitoring of results. Embedding analytics into our Internal Audit engagements allow us the opportunity to provide higher long-term benefits to our clients by better managing overall risk, minimizing costs traditionally spent on lower risk areas and increasing the value of findings by generating more timely and relevant analyses.
We have a dedicated team of Internal Auditors skilled at data analysis and able to use our suite of data analysis tools and techniques for identifying trends, anomalies, controls testing and spotting the "error" in the total population. Learn more about data analytics for internal audit.
- A clearer vision for finance
An effective Finance function that is best suited to the organization can be a critical factor for growth.
Yet 98% of companies feel there are opportunities to improve their Finance function.
The challenge is in marrying conflicting priorities:
- Driving the business forward
- Protecting the organization's financial assets
Our research suggests 80% of companies are planning to better align Finance with overall business strategies.
To do that, we see three key priorities for finance which involve striking a balance between control, effectiveness and efficiency.
- Control: promote strong governance and control in the organization.
- Effectiveness: drive the business forward, challenge the business and strengthen decision-making throughout the organization.
- Efficiency: drive costs down, integrate acquired teams.
See more about a clearer vision for Finance:
- Getting information technology right
Information technology functions need to strike a balance between risk and performance.
But reality often falls short of this goal.
That's because IT's influence on the business has evolved so quickly that many IT functions are still struggling with how to marry their technical expertise with a new business perspective.
Top IT leaders are now facing broad challenges, including:
- Increasingly complex IT and business operating models
- Cost efficiency and transparency demands
- New regulations and new forms of threat
- Corporate responsibility expectations
Our research suggests that successful firms are focusing on these key issues and formulating their response at the enterprise level.
Learn more about getting IT right:
- Shaping effective supply chains
Responding to a business environment that's more complex and fluid than ever, many companies are adapting their supply chains in two key ways:
- They're rapidly expanding to capitalize on the growing number of middle-class buyers in emerging markets.
- They're driving cost efficiencies to boost margins in their mature market operations.
Our research suggests that either way, seven interconnected items come into play.
In growth markets, considerations include:
- Managing operational, tax and regulatory risk
- Enabling new revenue sources
- Establishing an effective supply chain model and infrastructure
In mature markets, considerations include:
- Reconfiguring the supply chain to create cost competitiveness
- Optimizing global spend
- Improving operational agility and responsiveness
In mature and emerging markets, environmental and sustainability matters emerge.

Big data a crystal ball for only half of CFOs
While big data may indeed be high on the agenda, the most recent CFO Barometer shows that there is still a very large gap between theory and practice. This survey of Belgian CFOs shows that analysis of big data is still in its infancy.
Business risks fuse with IT risks
Managing IT risks today is more about managing business risks as a whole. What can you do to help minimize IT risks?

My Moen shower pull on shut off faucet will not shut off. Previously, I could hardly shut off the water after showering, ie., I could not push the faucet handle in. I replaced the shower trim, faceplate, stop tube, handle, etc. It worked good for one day then I could not get the cartridge to stay in (in a shut off position. Upon shutting off the water, I noticed that the faucet handle was slowly pulling back out, i.e., in an on position.
I may add that before installing the new faceplate, etc., I tried to push the faucet in and thought that if I sprayed WD 40 and silicon on the cartridge, it would become easier to shut off. I hope I did not do the wrong thing and that the lubrication is now the cause of the problem and that I now must replace the cartridge. Also, this is the original faucet and the house is about 35 years old. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks to all in advance.

Thick, warming hats might be good for winter base miles, but if you're breaking yourself off during interval training or a 'cross race, you need something lighter.

Discover a clinically proven collection to help reveal your skin's radiance.
The Performance Peel AP25 contains a 25% blend of Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) and Polyhydroxy Acids (PHAs) including Glycolic Acid, Mandelic Acid and Gluconolactone to exfoliate the top layer of the skin while enhancing cell renewal, to reveal healthier cells. With regular use, this peel has been proven to refine pore size and smooth texture, visibly diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve clarity and brightness, and even skin tone. Includes 12 peels (a 6 week supply).
Vespera Bionic Serum visibly improves the look of fine lines, wrinkles and skin texture, and is clinically proven to result in a 212% improvement in clarity after just 6 weeks of use. Vespera Bionic Serum is formulated with (AHA) Mandelic Acid, and (PHAs) Lactobionic Acid and Gluconolactone, along with Marine Botanicals and is suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive. Vitamins A, C and E offer multi-antioxidant protection making it the ideal complementary companion to the Performance Peel AP25. 1 oz bottle.
Recommended usage: Twice weekly, as tolerated
"With regular use, the Performance Peel AP25 is an ideal way to significantly reduce visible signs of aging, improve the texture of the skin, and create a better starting point for any in-office procedures my patients choose to pursue. It contains alpha hydroxy acids - the same peeling agents found in many office peels - but at a level with no recovery time. These peels are a safe and easy way for patients to exfoliate their skin and maintain a healthy-looking complexion in between office visits." -Dr. Julie K. Karen, a board certified dermatologist who specializes in dermatologic and laser surgery, cosmetic dermatology, and Mohs micrographic surgery and currently practices in NYC.
Step 1. Apply a Step 1 Activator Pad over the entire face, avoiding eye area, lips and any area of sensitivity. Then discard pad. Carefully monitor the skin's response to the Peel by observing any redness or discomfort, including stinging, burning, itching, tightness, tingling and peeling.
Step 2. Apply a Step 2 Neutralizer Pad to the face after 10 minutes, or sooner if you experience bothersome redness or discomfort. Apply over entire face (avoiding eyes and lips), and then rinse the face thoroughly with water
You may leave the (Step 1) Activator Solution on your skin for up to, or as long as 10 minutes, and no longer than 10 minutes. Some people may experience some bothersome dryness or stinging during the 10 minute time frame the activator solution in on their face. For those skin types we suggest applying the (Step 2) Neutralizer Solution earlier than 10 minutes, or as soon as you experience the stinging sensation if you find it bothersome. As with all Hydroxy Acid peels, a slight tingling sensation is expected, but if this sensation is too much, we recommend neutralizing the peel sooner than the total 10 minute time.
Follow with Vespera Bionic Serum. Using fingertips, gently apply serum to cleansed face. Apply with special attention to the creases/wrinkles around the eyes, forehead and smile lines around mouth and nose.
The Performance Peel AP25 contains 12 peels, which can be used up to twice a week on face, chest and back of hands where exposure to sun and the environment can lead to signs of aging. An extra peel is included for testing your skin's sensitivity.

Skip to comments.Beware 'Planet of the Apes' experiments that could create sci-fi nightmare
Posted on 07/22/2011 12:20:53 PM PDT by presidio9
It sounds like something from a Hollywood science fiction film: a race that is half human, half ape.
But leading scientists are today demanding tough new rules to prevent the nightmare scenario becoming a reality.
In a hard-hitting report, they warn that research is close to pushing ethical boundaries and that extreme attempts to give laboratory animals human attributes must be banned.
While talking chimpanzees and gun-toting gorillas are currently confined to movies, the academics say the dangers of disturbing animal-human experiments are real.
He added: We are trying to get this out in the open before anything has happened.
The Academy of Medical Scientists review was set up to look at the growing number of experiments
(Excerpt) Read more at dailymail.co.uk ...
If these hybrids run amuck in Hollywood and stop the release of this horrid remake then I say it's worth it!
When laboratory animals with human attributes are outlawed, only outlaws will have laboratory animals with human attributes!!!
If you're saying that the original nailed it, so the remake wasn't necessary (as was the case with the first installment of this series, the "Bad News Bears," and "Charlie & the Chocolate Factory"), I can't agree with you. "Planet of the Apes" with Charlie Heston was pretty close to perfect. Tim Burton ruins everything he gets his fat ugly hands on. That being said, the original "Conquest of the Planet of the Apes" was so bad that even Roddy McDowell & Ricardo Monteblan couldn't hide their embarrassment completely.
I'm looking forward to this one.
Let me rephrase that by omitting a couple of key words:
"When human attributes are outlawed, only outlaws will have human attributes!"
Sponsoring FReepers are contributing $10 Each time a New Monthly Donor signs up!
Get more bang for your buck!
Please Sign up Now!
I don't know why scientists would even feel compelled to create humans with ape-like tendencies.
We already have plenty of those around.
Conquest was AWFUL but still, it looks better than this one they have coming. That CGI is ridiculous.
You're probably right, but I will still go, because I am a sucker. I did so with Tron and Thor and Iron Man, because I thought the better special effects would make a difference.
We could use them to pick our lettuce.
Tron was pretty good! I'm going to like anything with Olivia Wilde in it though.
Best remake I've seen in a LONG time was True Grit hands down!
To tell you the truth, I think a monkey overlord would run this place a whole lot better than Obama.
These hybrids become smart enough to create Skynet.
Now wait a minute, I thought he WAS...
Don't forget 'Beneath the Planet of the Apes (1970)' where James Gregory as General Ursus says "The Only good human is a dead human". In the BEHIND THE PLANET OF THE APES documentary Heston said he only agreed to be in that dumb sequel because the script said he would get to blow up the Earth at the end and then his character Taylor couldn't be brought back again for an even dumber movie. But Heston didn't know that Hollywood had long discovered Time Travel, remember 1960s Time Tunnel and The Time Machine??
Can an Ape become president?
So why are YOU making the assumption that he was comparing a the first lady's race with apes?
Don't be a kneejerk liberal.
I found it ironic that the actor playing opposite Heston in the most recent remake was a vehement anti-gunner, who said he was "uncomfortable" playing in the scene with Heston.
And the scene itself was an explanation of the utility of GUNS to thwart the strong oppressing the weak.
In the scene, Heston's "ape" stated that firearms could not be allowed to be re-discovered, or else the apes' supremacy due to their strength would no longer be enforceable.
When will Hollywood figure out that Americans swarm to films about heroic Americans? -and that American men will pay $10 to see Olivia Wilde trim her toenails for ninety minutes?
Best remake Ive seen in a LONG time was True Grit hands down!
Good movie, but not in the same universe as the original. Not even the same movie, really. My favorite remake of all time is Scorcese's "Cape Fear," with DeNiro, Nick Nolte and Jessica Lang.
Those meddling fiends! They've brought back...the Minotaur!!
Dont be a kneejerk liberal.
The intention of his post was clear enough that he felt the need to include the "(evil grin)" disclaimer.
Past experience with you has led me to conclude that you are probably mentally retarded or deficient in some way, so I'm going to be the good Christian and ignore you for the rest of this thread.
There are communities on the Internet that will welcome this news.
Why would anyone want to make more muslims? Don't we have enough?
That dumb movie made the 1970s sequels look good. Apes /Gorillas matching around with guns in 'Beneath' was pretty entertaining.
ah... playground stuff! Great fun!
"I know you are, but what am I?"
The Soviets already tried this, and failed, thankfully. Tells you pretty much what you need to know about Soviets and their modern intellectual descendants.
The Soviets already tried this, and failed, thankfully.
I guess you never heard of Oliver, the so-called "humanzee" then, right?
Charlton Heston is a personal hero of mine, but he certainly did not come out of the original smelling like a rose.
More proof of horrible man-animal hybrids: Tim Geithner in the morning:
I have. That was the source of my information - the link from his wikipedia entry. I don't think it was mentioned there, but I'd heard that there were post French Revolutionary suggestions to try it more crudely, which were quashed by the then Pope. Sick, sick people. Pre- 'Enlightenment' it would have incurred the death penalty.
If you've heard of Oliver, then you're probably as bugged as I am with the way shows like "Ancient Aliens" have made the History Channel utterly unwatchable, right?
This thread has gotten me to thinking: What if those ancient aliens were successful, and the result was Bigfoot? I'll pause here to allow the ramifications of this theory to fully set it.
I don't know about ancient aliens, ancient astronauts, bigfoot, yeti, that kind of thing. I'd guess there are some prosaic explanations for the as yet inexplicable, though I'm open-minded especially around things like yeti, or alma being included in Tibetan medical manuals that have no other fantastic creatures in them.
I haven't seen much of the History Channel, so I can't commiserate or even relate. Gotten a bit ahistorical has it?
Then there really are monsters under the bed!
"They finally really did it... The maniacs... They blew it up!"
Re: above. Bummer! The trailer has been pulled...
He has been one of my favorite actors since I was a kid, I loved those cheesy sci-fi movies like Soylant Green that my dad took me to back then.
The original Planet 1968 wasnt bad, it had a good theme, it had good actors, it had some good lines, it had thought provoking sci-fi imagination themes like :"Ape was made in God's image unlike the destructive Animal Man " was a great one, and the shocker visual of him on the beach reacting to the Liberty Statue is a classic. The following sequels were all crap.
But heck, I was a kid in the 1970s and in NYC around 1974 I went to see an all day showing of all five Planet movies in a row. Those were the 1970s 'Creature Feature/Chiller theater/Fright Night" days in NYC, a great time to be a kid.
Comparing black people to apes is universally frowned upon as racist in modern society. The basis for this goes back to the turn of the last century, when Darwin's theory began to be generally accepted, white supremacists borrowed it to suggest that blacks were less evolved.
I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, and assuming you know this, but making that suggestion about the President and his family (even in jest) is the kind of thing the mainstream media uses to portray the members of this website as angry, ignorant rednecks. They only need a couple of such examples out of every million or so posts, and, believe me, they have people looking for them.
As I am sure you are aware, LameStream media will always slam us, either using out of context or even outright lies.
We are in the middle of a war for the soul of America, and te Liberals/commies know the facts do not support them, history does not support them. Only Lame Stream Presstitutes support them.
Expect to be called all sorts of things. They really can't hurt us with their lies, thanks to the Internet and talk radio.
Is that "ManPig", the first step toward the famous "ManBearPig"?

Sophisticated sandal
"I got these in black/nude and love them. The patent leather and style looks very sophisticated, but a great summer sandal for work. The top started rubbing the top of my big toe, but I had been on my feet all day and then shopped for several hours after work. Normal wear does not cause this."

Watch this! it helped me with my archos 101.
Takes you step by step to get the android market so you can download apps including skype for android.
Then you update your firmwire so the video calling works. Ok try it..
((The video says restart your whole archos [step 1]. but i skipped that part and it still worked fine for me (: ))
Get the app from applib.
Just want to share, after installing the Skype in my Archos 101, I finally used it and found it was working fine and helpful. I can video chat with my family in asia from europe. Nice to see the face of your loved ones and hear their voice. y):
I downloaded skype which worked but with no video. I uninstalled it, installed the superstore then tried to reload skype but it said there was not enough memory. So I uninstalled superstore and tried to reload skype again and now it keeps telling me there is not enough memory. All my apps disappeared when I rebooted so I don't understand how there can not be enough memory

SourceMedia Roundtable: Servicers Check CFPB Compliance Points
Since 2007 when the volume of delinquent mortgage loans increased to unprecedented levels, while surprised and unprepared, servicers started to reinvent their business and adjust to the new reality. Besides that core adjustment today servicers also are routinely challenged by regulators, such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which recently updated its mortgage servicing requirements. At the MBA�s National Mortgage Servicing Conference and Expo 2013 in Dallas Mark Fogarty, editorial director of the mortgage group publications, Amilda Dymi, managing editor, Mortgage Servicing News, and Evan Nemeroff, reporter, Mortgage Servicing News, sat down with mortgage industry insiders Ed Fay, CEO of Fay Servicing, John Vella, COO of Equator, and Loren Morris, general counsel and chief compliance officer of Retreat Capital Management, to hear, among others, about their reaction to these rules.
Ed Fay, CEO of Fay Servicing, thinks the fact that the CFPB has now finalized nine mortgage servicing rules the industry must abide to �will make fundamental changes� to how his special servicing company will do business �with the exception of some of the single point of contact� requirements. �One of the biggest changes is just simply trying to make customers more aware of what�s happening with their situation,� he says. For example, servicers must send customers a second letter in 90 days instead of just one 45 days after they become delinquent. If for smaller servicers it is not a big deal to add another letter cycle, he says, for a large size bank or servicer who needs to ensure a letter cycle is a simple process it could be difficult to implement some of the changes . �Luckily they gave us a significant amount of time to make the implementations.�
The CFPB rules are going to have a big impact, agrees John Vella, COO of Equator, even though the deadline is 2014 and servicers have been putting some of these rules in place for a while now, �it�s going to take a lot of time." To implement new requirements in a large organization, �in addition to the CFPB rules, all of the other investor rules and government rules that they�ve had to put in place," has not been easy for servicers. The biggest challenge from a technology perspective is the need to secure efficient tools to manage the process, because at the end of the day everything is about compliance. And to remian in compliance servicers will need proper data collections and audit trails. Technology will allow servicers to document every aspect of loan servicing. Audit results will depend on the process they have put in place. they have to be ready before an audit when they will need to be able to go back and look at things such as dual tracking and 30-day notices and have snapshots of those decisions, the times they were made, and the underlying rules and attributes behind it. If audited, and with penalties potentially facing them down the road, they need proper compliance tools, people, and multiple sites. Servicers who use third-party outsourced companies need to properly manage them, they need to get the rules out to all the constituents, train their staff and have proper controls for documents and data. �Technology is going to play a critical part in making sure that they�re within compliance.�
What we may be seeing this year and the next, says general counsel and chief compliance officer of Retreat Capital Management, Loren Morris, is �a reconfiguration of the servicing industry as a whole,� as it moves away from the large servicing operation structures that will likely find default servicing uneconomical or not in the best interest of their shareholders. He expects "coming into play" second and even third-tier servicers engaging as specialty servicers or subservicers, which is �probably good from a consumer�s perspective as well as the industry�s perspective� since they will enable more very high-touch servicing, which is the goal of the regulators. ��put the word service back in mortgage servicing.� But it�s going to be difficult for the large servicers to move quickly. The mega-servicers who are all part of the mortgage settlement, they�re already implementing a lot of this, but differently. You have a lot of constituents, you have a lot of different investors, you have the GSEs, you have the mortgage settlement, and then you layer in the CFPB, he says. So it is early to foresee how they will integrate.
Like many others in the industry Vella acknowledges the robo-signing fiasco and foreclosure processing issues in many states put mortgage servicers under the microscope even though most mortgage servicers �tried to do the right thing.� But since 2007, due to the sheer volume of delinquent loans, �everyone was caught off guard, so I don�t think anyone deliberately went out of their way not to do a good job.� Servicers were caught off guard and tried to react as quickly as possible, he argues, but to hire, train, put in place technology, change your whole entire workflow process to meet the demands of all these new needs, and so on, �it was unrealistic trying to do that in a short period of time. So I think there�s a misconception out there that loan servicers were doing things deliberately to not service the customer correctly.� In his view more than anything �they were caught up in the fray of the 2007 onslaught of activity in delinquent loans and unrealistic expectations in a short period of time.� It is why technology providers have to be thinking ahead, of what�s coming next and create flexible rules engines in advance, he says.
Morris also finds having the ability to document all the details of the servicing process and communication with borrowers is key. In addition, he says, �what�s going to be key is training, because at the end of the day, you have to train people to use the tools, you have to train people to interact well with the borrower and achieve the borrower-centric relationship that the regulators are trying to promote.� Servicers may have to further change their attitude about staffing versus outsourcing to vendors, or implement a combination of the two. Such decisions depend on what their future strategies are, including whether they prefer to keep servicing rights or sell them.
Preparation, timely changes of processes and technology are crucial to the servicing business, says Fay. John made a good point before about making the changes in a way that is fundamental to how servicers do their job, and at this point one year, until January 2014, is plenty of time to make those changes. It is concerning however because �it�s not just about how you did it, it�s how you prove you did it,� which is an important piece of the requirements that concerns servicers. �If you can�t prove you followed all these actions at certain times, then that can cause litigation, it can cause other issues for the servicer. So I couldn�t agree more with John when he says that being able to document this through technology and have rules-based systems in place is incredibly important. Again, we�re a relatively small servicer. For us to put these changes in place is significantly easier than for a big shop.� Many of the large servicers have to fundamentally change they do business after having done the same thing for over 50 years, "and that is very difficult to do.�

Brookner, Anita, 1928–, English writer and art critic. After establishing an academic career at London's Courtauld Institute of Art and becoming the first woman appointed (1968) Slade Professor of Art at Cambridge, she began writing fiction in 1980, producing approximately one book a year of elegantly restrained prose. Her quiet, often bleak novels usually concern lonely, meek, and genteel middle-aged women (and occasionally men), unlucky in love and yearning for it, but largely unable to establish or maintain relationships with those around them. Brookner's works include Look at Me (1983), Hotel du Lac (1984; Booker Prize), Latecomers (1988), Fraud (1992), Undue Influence (1999), and Strangers (2009). Her nonfiction work Romanticism and Its Discontents (2000) is an analysis of French Romanticism.

By NED SCARLETCleveland
Several days ago I was listening to the radio. The speaker mentioned a recent poll, the poll asked whether, or not, people think our country is on the right track. She reported that a record number, 60 percent, think it isn't. About 30 percent don't know. She seemed dismayed that 10 percent still think the country is on the right track. I think the 10 percent are people who prefer to cherish what we have.
That 10 percent knows we can take the availability of electricity, natural gas, running water, and sewers for granted. We can be warm in the winter and cool in the summer. If we are sick or injured we have access to the best medical care in the world. No matter what the emergency, we simply pick up a phone and dial 911 and the best of help is on the way. Our stores have shelves loaded with many varieties of food and other goods. If calamity strikes we know our government and neighbors will be there to help, and not use our misfortune to further their own position or power.
We are still free to write or say just about anything, as long as we are not genuinely threatening someone. Using the internet we have instant communication and can seek information from anywhere in the world. Our children have schools to attend. Our country is connected with roads and airways. We are allowed to travel and live anywhere we desire. Unlike most countries, law abiding citizens can own and keep firearms in their homes. We no longer kill each other over differences in religion or doctrine. The list goes on and on.
If we could travel only 100 years backwards on our track and bring an average citizen to where we are now, they would spend weeks trying to absorb all of our blessings. After that they would spend years trying to figure out just what it is we have so much to complain about.
We are on the right track and have been so for more than 220 years. It is a track that has its ups and downs, but it has always taken us to a better future. And it will continue to do so, so long as we do not allow ourselves to become stuck in whatever mud hole the latest media inflicted gloom informs us we are tormented with.

Fans of Stephanie Meyers' Twilight series -- now coming to a silver screen near you - love the fact that her vampires "sparkle" in sunlight rather than burn up, a la Dracula. It's an intriguing departure from classical vampire lore, and far be it from us to argue with artistic license. But you don't have to be a broody vampire to have a bit of a glow about you.
A team of Japanese researchers have now proven the existence of human bioluminescence by producing the very first photographs of our natural "glow." Bioluminescence is a common phenomenon in marine creatures (squid, exotic fish that live in the darkest depths of the ocean, fireflies, etc.), but all living things emit very weak light -- and not just in the form of heat (the basis for night vision goggles and thermal imaging). Scientists hypothesize we glow as a byproduct of certain biochemical reactions.
The Japanese scientists used very sensitive cameras that could detect single particles of light (photons), and placed five male test subjects in complete darkness for 20 minutes every three hours for three days. Not only did the subjects glow, but there seems to be a cycle: we emit very little in the early morning, hit a peak "glow period" around 4 PM, and then dim gradually from then on before the whole cycle starts again. This might be linked to our internal biological clocks. Also? Faces glowed more than the rest of the body.
From a science standpoint the technique might one day be used for medical imaging to help spot weak areas of emission -- possible evidence of disease. But we wouldn't be surprised if it also spawned a new trend in vampire lore: monsters that glow in the dark.

Does anyone know if Programs like these work with Windows 8?
Kingsoft Office
Dataviz Documents to Go
Thinkfree Office Mobile
Google Docs
Quickoffice Pro
Mobile Office
or does anyone know of a full-functioning, feature-rich Office Substitute?
I would like it to:
- Be able to Create PPT Slide shows, Edit them, Re-order them, Play & Control them, etc..
- Have complex Word Docx & Excel XLSX Creation & Editing functions, with lots of options & toolbars, etc

Are you using Windows 8 RT or full blown Windows 8?
RT comes with Office 2013 Home & Student which includes Word, Excel, PowerPoint and OneNote (there's no known substitutes in this regard).
Full blown Windows 8 doesn't come bundled with any productivity suites, but you're free to install your own.
Why do you want a substitute?

if you're talking about windows 8, I don't think there really is a substitute. I'll explain:
If you're using a Microsoft OS in the first place then you're on the wrong platform to be looking for a MS Office substitute as it runs better and has more features, and is laid out better than any other office suite. Why do you think that was the primary reason that excel and word overtook corel and lotus? Because it was a better product. I am a heavy excel user and I think the only office suite to come close on windows is corel word perfect suite. Other wise, I think LibreOffice and Open Office are too slow and clunky. I think google docs is too light-featured so it isn't good for much besides basic word processing and basic spreadsheets. iWork is probably one of the better ones too, but its only for Mac.
Let me ask, is there a reason you don't like office? If its because they want people to go the subscription route, you can buy office home and student for 139.99$. Other wise Corel for windows or Lotus would be my second choice although I haven't used any lotus products for like 15 years now so I wouldn't know unfortunately.
exactly what I want is to pay for a stand-alone version of Office whatever version, for the Nokia 920
The reasons why i dont like the Office-esque thing installed in Windows Phone 8, is because I dont see it as an Office Program at all..
Taking away such very basic tools such as Built-in Outline Bullets & Numbering Buttons forces anyone with any sort of Office need to use their online cloud office services.
in fact, the entire office development for windows phone 8 is exactly for this reason alone.. to give them access to an endless stream of private personal & corporate information..what any marketing, development, and R&D team would throw their teamleader into the volcano for
by creating an experience the end user hates so much, we'd be forced to resort to things like their office 365, and their own windows 8 tablet
its an attempt to increase sales of their office 365 cloud products, giving everyone access to their documents ONLY if our personal data is first transferred through their own online servers for review, inspection, idea fraud, & theft
and if the customer doesn't like that option, he is forced into spending money on a Windows 8 tablet device, and learn to carry it around along with their Windows 8 phone, again, just to be able to do the very most basic of office-related things
That would be all well and good if Windows Phone 8 Phones looked something like the Asus Padfone 2 and could snap into a Windows8 Tablet
Windows Phone 8 needs a Windowed-mode function, similar to a regular desktop experience, just as Windows 8 full version has, which allows it not only compatibility, but useability
its like the whole Mobile Office thing has been abandoned just so they can enjoy more swiping than any human should ever have to perform..
Even the office version that came with Win Mobile 2003 was way more useful than this Office13 Mobile 8 thingy, thats really just a marketing tease to try and dupe everyone into other services..
I guess I may just have to wait around for a Firefox OS, and hope they dont go the route of the silly-swipers
The reason I want a phone with more than basic call & text functionality is simply so i can be more productive.. I needed a PDA because it was a device that bridged the Office gap between my Desktop, Laptop, & Phone
Since 2003 I have hoped for PPT Creating & Editing software, and I thought for sure Word would be WAY more advanced, MUCH more like the Full Desktop versions..
but nope.. we've seemed to have taken off in the wrong direction.. bassackwards
Android has Office programs that function WAY more similarly to desktop Office, for PPTX, PDF, DOCX, XLSX, and more. but who on earth would really trust google, the only reason they likely even made an OS was to obtain Customer demographic & Psychographic info.. I'm sure the Android Phone was thought up by their marketing team as yet another tool for researching users.
But even if Android made a stylus-operated, Windowed-interface-based OS, I'd use it.. Does anyone actually need to Swipe their Office Documents into creation with their thumb as their on their little tricycle?
No.. and its impossible to do so.. U need to sit down and make and compose a good office document, if not, then you'd use Note, One-Note, Wordpad, or a Plain Text Editor...
i mean.. i feel like i'm the only person left on earth who needs a phone with Office functionality and would prefer the Windows 7-desktop-like interface.. a version of Windows 6 which is more like the Windows 7 x86 platform..
Windows 7 mobile i guess was released too early, and the name was stolen which should rightly belong to a mobile OS modeled more after the Windows 7 Desktop OS
what a messed up world we live in.
on another note, I'm envisioning a Windows Mobile 8 Mobile Device with a stylus that has a finger tip-like pad at the bottom, and a telescoping thickness as wide as a pencil, that you could use in basic windowed mode as accurately and fluently as you use your actual finger in Windows 8 Floaty mode..
maybe the back of the stylus has a remote control for PPT Switching when aimed at the mobile device connected to the Projector with its HDMI-Mini-Out Cable
and I click on Office Word and a Beautiful mini-desktop office Word appears, and lets me tap buttons on the toolbar, zoom the toolbar in or out independently of the Document, and compose Docs similar to what i could do on my Desktop or Tablet
and the phone Docks right into my Windows 8 Tablet which I bought simply because windows Phone 8 works like Windows 8 OS.. with a Windowed Mode for people who dont swipe..
thanks CEO Stevie Ballmer for your complete lack of Vision and your hair-salon marketing tactics..
You're asking in the wrong section of the forum. You should be posting this in Windows Phone 8, not Windows 8.
Just to answer your question, no, there aren't any alternative Office Suites available on Windows Phone.

Washington, D.C.- Attorney General, John Ashcroft, and the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) today announced $5.2 million in funding to provide training to combat the production and distribution of methamphetamine.
The funding will support the development of a regional training center in California that will provide instruction to more than 1,400 law enforcement personnel in methamphetamine lab investigations, and the safe disposition of methamphetamine labs seized by police. This training will be made available to state and local law enforcement agencies located in California, Nevada, Arizona, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Hawaii, Idaho, Utah, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana.
Additional funds will provide methamphetamine awareness training to law enforcement personnel, policymakers, and community members in cities and towns across America that are just beginning to experience the consequences of methamphetamine manufacture, distribution, and use.
"The safety threats and destructive potential posed by methamphetamine extend far beyond the users," said COPS Director Carl R. Peed. "Meth places entire communities at risk, and we are committed to strengthening the capacity of state and local law enforcement to fight the spread of methamphetamine."
Methamphetamine, which is commonly referred to as "meth" or "crank", represents the fastest growing drug threat in America. Primarily a drug that was concentrated in southwestern states, it has spread rapidly. Due to its characteristics, methamphetamine is difficult to detect, highly explosive during the manufacturing process, creates hazardous waste, and poses a significant danger to the communities in which it is manufactured.
Recent studies indicate methamphetamine use in America nearly tripled between 1994 and 1999. Hospitals in the United States reported over 10,000 emergency room visits related to methamphetamine use in 1999 alone. On a list of 85 death causing drugs in the country, methamphetamine ranks sixth.
To date, COPS has invested $128.7 million dollars to address this critical issue. Forty million of these funds have gone directly to the Drug Enforcement Administration for training and clandestine lab clean up.

Press photography
Non-commercial photography that benefits Kew Gardens - eg by publicising its scientific work, its festivals, or its status as a visitor attraction - is handled free of charge by the Press Office.
The following guidelines outline the service provided by the Press Office and what is required from applicants in return:
- A detailed itinerary must be submitted before any photography in the Gardens is agreed. Location, plant or interview specifics and an accurate estimate of timing must be included. This allows us to arrange access to the required areas and make sure that everything is in place.
- Due to the size and diversity of the site, and volume of information that can be found at Kew, we strongly recommend that you do a pre-filming recce before submitting your itinerary.
- A location release must be signed by us at the stage of a recce. A copy of your insurance agreement must also be supplied
- Once your proposal has been accepted by the Press Office it must be adhered to. Additional time may be offered at our discretion but please bear in mind that we receive numerous ad hoc photography requests throughout the year.
- On the agreed day please arrive at Cambridge Cottage Offices, 37 Kew Green and ring the marketing bell unless otherwise agreed.
- No vehicles are allowed into the Gardens. We therefore advise that you bring a trolley to transport your equipment around the Gardens.
- It is Kew's policy that press photographers are accompanied at all times while in the Gardens. Your filming is dependent upon staff being available.
- It is your responsibility to supply personal/parental release forms and obtain signatures prior to photography. If prior consent is not gained in the form of a signed document, no photography will be possible.
- Kew is a major visitor attraction and our visitors expect a quiet and peaceful environment. We ask that you respect this and discourage interaction with the public. It is essential that you consult us if you intend to interact with the public and - if we give prior agreement - that personal/parental permission is gained.
- Please note that no press photography is permitted at weekends or after the Gardens/Glasshouses close. You will need to check these timings as they vary seasonally.

Virgin Announces New Culinary09/03/2011
Virgin Blue Group of Airlines today launched a new premium quality on-board retail menu for Virgin Blue, Polynesian Blue and Pacific Blue guests, designed exclusively by leading Australian chef Luke Mangan.
Bringing style and taste to air travel from 2011, the airline also announced that Luke Mangan has exclusively designed Virgin Blue's first domestic business class menu, which will be launched on its new Airbus 330 aircraft in May 2011.
The new retail menu will offer guests a superior quality product, with delicious fresh meals and a totally reinvigorated snack and beverage menu focused on Australian-owned and made produce.
Virgin Blue Group of Airlines Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director John Borghetti said the new menu was about creating a first-rate in-flight experience for guests.
"We want to lead the way in providing a great range of quality in-flight food and beverages as we build on our strategy to be the airline of choice in Australia.
"Luke Mangan is renowned internationally for his expertise in food and we knew he was the right person to help us redefine onboard menus. Just because you are up in the air doesn't mean that you can't enjoy fresh, great tasting meals and snacks.
"Additionally, when we launch Virgin Blue domestic business class, guests can look forward to a food service of unrivalled quality, with a fresh seasonal menu that draws on Luke's extensive experience," Mr Borghetti said.
Luke Mangan's philosophy behind the new menu was to source the finest, freshest local and Australian ingredients and showcase them with a clean and contemporary twist. Renowned for his modern creations, the new designer menu across economy and business class also highlights his French classical training and Asian influences, married with simple, fresh and clean flavours.
As part of this strong retail collaboration with Virgin Blue, the leading Australian chef has introduced a range of Luke Mangan branded products on board – such as premium Luke Mangan Ice-cream sandwiches, fresh salads and paninis and Luke Mangan Gourmet Chunky Beef pies with tomato relish.
"The retail menus will feature a range of Luke Mangan branded products. This entire distinctive product range is a result of the unique close working partnerships between myself and leading boutique producers around Australia who have high quality produce", Luke Mangan said.
"When it comes to travelling economy, I wanted to make sure we selected high quality food that travellers actually wanted to buy such as fresh and delicious meals they could enjoy on board.
The Virgin Blue partnership with Luke Mangan includes:
•·A completely new, high quality choice of retail food on all Virgin Blue, Polynesian Blue and Pacific Blue flights with no direct impact on guest fares
•·Meal selections which bundle menu options
•·Business Class food on V Australia and our new transcontinental Airbus 330s, exclusively designed by Luke Mangan
•·Luke is renowned for his modern creations, which highlight his French classical training and Asian influences, married with simple, fresh, clean flavours.
•·Luke currently owns and operates glass brasserie at the Hilton Sydney, The Palace by Luke Mangan, South Melbourne, Salt & the adjoining World Wine Bar in Tokyo, Salt grill, Singapore and Salt grill onboard P&O's Pacific Dawn, Pacific Jewel and Pacific Pearl.
•·Luke's cooking aims to enhance and accentuate, rather than mask, the natural taste of the ingredients.
•·Both the domestic and international business class menus feature a range of different dishes, including exotic spice blends such as Cajun spices, Moroccan spices, sumac and Luke Mangan's own dukkah.
Media high resolution images of the new menu are available via email from Virgin Blue Corporate Communications Team. For more information please contact:
Emma Copeman on 0421 702 193 or firstname.lastname@example.com

Trust me when i say that Hibari is only here to wake Yamamoto up.
Trust me when i say that Hibari is only here to wake Yamamoto up.
Can you scanlate? Then consider scanlating Air Gear. Either join an existing team like Kuu, or start a new team. But Air Gear is in desperate need of scanlators and you could be the difference between crazy smiling grateful fans and the internet breaking down because they had nothing else to do but watch porn. Think about it.
I really do wonder when Ryohei and Hibari from the past are coming to the future >_>
Just because the two of them in the past need power-ups too...
Maybe Ryohei, but I doubt Hibari is stupid enough to be caught by the Bazooka. Plus we need a few people from the future anyways so they aren't overwelmed.
(First Post!)
Lol Ryohei is already weak as it is TYL; he definitely won't be up to par if he shows up his younger self. I'm guessing he is still the weakest one in the group. Although I highly doubt (and hope) that Hibari doesn't return to his younger self in this arc, he'd still be fairly strong.
I just want TYL Dino to show up before Hibari has a chance to return to his younger self, if he returns at all. I need. Their interactions. *__* I crave it. Now.
Your chance of winning has just gone from 0%.... TO 0%! - Squalo
Good one, darling.
yea, I was kinda surprised that Ryohei got defeated so easily by Gamma...
Ryohei DID fight that Arabian White Spell dudewhateverhisnameis right before Gamma... Maybe he's tired, though I doubt that. The fight wasn't that 'extreme'.
It's obvious the mangaka just wanted Gokudera to shine(new weapon and shiz) so she sacrificed Ryohei to do so. That's just sad, Ryohei needs more love D=.
About the past Ryohei and Hibari coming.. if they don't come, Byakuran would NEVER complete the 7 Vongola rings or the Trinisette. TYL!Hibari/Ryohei obviously don't have the Vongola Cloud/Sun ring on them. My guess is they'll show up, sooner or later. The Vongola Rings won't just come flying to Bya-kun's hands.
I agree with ilollipopz the mangaka just wanted gokudera to shine wich unfortunatley meant that ryohei had to seem weak.
still he seemed to weak and that kinda was a waste
but than again, there was no other option to make gokudera shine >_>
Not really, it just goes to show how powerful those rings really are, since the mare rings are just as potent as the vongola rings. If Ryohei had his ring, the fight would have ended differently.
yea, true, I havent thought about that yet... stupid me haha

Many people are moving to Sacramento. The capital of California, Sacramento is sometimes referred to by locals as "Sac," "Sactown," "The Capital City," "The River City" and "The City of Trees." Those moving to Sacramento will realize that the city got the name "The River City" because of the nearby Sacramento River and American River. While some are moving to Sacramento for the beautiful scenery and culture in California's Central Valley, others are moving to Sacramento to attend California State University, Sacramento.
You'll find many Sacramento apartment rentals near California State University, Sacramento, since apartment rentals are a popular choice for students and other university staff members and faculty. But the university area isn't the only area in Sacramento where you can find apartment rentals -- complexes are all over Sacramento. The cost of living in Sacramento is at the national average, so Sacramento real estate and apartment rentals are not considered outrageous. In fact, many consider Sacramento to be one of the most affordable cities in California.
Sacramento neighborhoods include many areas with exciting, unique characteristics. There's downtown, a Sacramento neighborhood perfect for those who want an urban setting and close proximity to nightlife, shopping and other entertainment. Other Sacramento neighborhoods to consider are Rancho Cordova, Arden and Rosemont, which are areas that have affordable living options.

The Reds are chasing their fourth straight Super Rugby victory on Saturday when they take on the winless Western Force in Brisbane.
The Reds are chasing their fourth straight Super Rugby victory on Saturday when they take on the winless Western Force in Brisbane.
The Queenslanders' opening round defeat seems a distant memory as the 2011 champions look to pile pressure on Aussie conference leaders, the Brumbies, when they return to Suncorp Stadium
The hosts have won 23 of their past 26 matches at their home fortress, and with the Force yet to taste victory in the Sunshine State, those impressive figures could very well change to 24 from 27.
The Force, however, did get the better of their Aussie rivals last time out when they ran away with a comprehensive 45-19 victory at nib Stadium in Perth.
But much has changed since then. For one, the Force coach in charge back then (Richard Graham) is now with the Reds and the Wallaby scrum-half who was meant to sign with the men from the west is returning from injury and set to provide the missing spark in Queensland's backline.
Indeed, Will Genia's comeback match has overshadowed the suspension of winger Digby Ioane, who will miss the match following an off-field misdemeanour.
The return of the talented scrum-half comes at a timely point in Queensland's Super Rugby campaign with the sixh-placed Reds aiming for maximum points in order to cut the Brumbies lead to a solitary point (and hope Jake White's troops leave Durban empty-handed when they face the Sharks).
With the Force's defence currently the worst in the competition this season, the Reds may just get their wish. But the visitors showed against the Bulls that they can be a competitive unit for 60 of the 80 minutes, and won't roll over so easily.
If they can keep it up for the full length of Saturday's derby encounter… we might just have a game on our hands.
Prediction: Stranger things have happened, but we just don't see an upset here. Reds by 14!
The teams:
Reds: 15 Jono Lance, 14 Luke Morahan, 13 Anthony Faingaa, 12 Ben Tapuai, 11 Chris Feauai-Sautia, 10 Quade Cooper, 9 Will Genia, 8 Jake Schatz, 7 Liam Gill, 6 Ed Quirk, 5 Ed O'Donoghue, 4 Rob Simmons, 3 James Slipper, 2 Saia Faingaa, 1 Greg Holmes.
Replacements: 16 James Hanson, 17 Albert Anae, 18 Adam Wallace-Harrison, 19 Jarrad Butler, 20 Nick Frisby, 21 Mike Harris, 22 Aidan Toua.
Western Force: 15 Will Tupou, 14 Patrick Dellit, 13 Winston Stanley, 12 Kyle Godwin, 11 Alfie Mafi, 10 Sias Ebersohn, 9 Alby Mathewson, 8 Richard Brown, 7 Chris Alcock, 6 Angus Cottrell, 5 Hugh McMeniman, 4 Toby Lynn, 3 Salesi Ma'afu, 2 Nathan Charles, 1 Pek Cowan (c).
Replacements: 16 Heath Tessmann, 17 Tetera Faulkner, 18 Phoenix Battye, 19 Ben McCalman, 20 Mick Snowden, 21 Junior Rasolea, 22 Jayden Hayward.
Date: Saturday, 16 March
Venue: Suncorp Stadium, Brisbane
Kick-off: 19:40
Referee: Angus Gardner (Australia)
Assistant referees: Rohan Hoffman (Australia), Matt O'Brien (Australia)
Television match official: Steve Leszczynski (Australia)

By GARY ARRINGTONSports Writer
With Emery High's Spartan Center filled with wrestling fans from the five Region 8 schools, the Delta Rabbits used their depth, strength and experience to win the 2004 region wrestling championship. They finished with a team score of 306 points and five individual champions.
North Sanpete finished second with 245 points and four individual champions and Lehi was third with 236 points and two individual champions. The Carbon Dinos had five wrestlers in the finals with three of them going home as winners. Another Dino went into sudden death overtime before losing the match and the championship. The Dino team finished with 146.50 points as they also suffered, like the Spartans, with the lack of wrestlers. Carbon finished the season with about 20 team members while Delta, North Sanpete and Lehi all had over 40 team members.
The Emery Spartans could only garner 53 points as they wrestled only 10 team members. Jesse Jensen at 119 lbs, Kendall Bird at 125 lbs, Spencer Cook at 189 lbs and Steven Swasey at 275 lbs all finished fourth in their weight group and qualified for the state tournament this weekend at UVSC.
Talking with the coaching staff during the all day tournament, it was mentioned that Emery's program has several weaknesses that need to be overcome. The biggest concern is lack of participants. Emery simply does not have enough wrestlers to even fill all the different weight groups. Last weekend, the Spartans had no wrestlers in seven of the 14 different weights classes. This problem also manifests itself in practice every day; there are not enough bodies to practice against. The Spartans this season only had two wrestlers over 140 lbs, Cook and Swasey, and they had nobody to practice against except coaches. It's nearly impossible to get better without competition from within the system. This lack of participants is hard to understand with the good wrestling programs at Canyon View Junior High and San Rafael Junior High.
Head Coach Ferd Allred also said, "We need to get better at off season training. We need better upper body strength and more stamina." He appeared pleased though with what his young and meager band of combatants was able to accomplish this year.
Carbon High's three champions were Trent Greenhalgh at 112 lbs, who upset the #1 seed with a pin, Dustin Howa at 130 lbs, who was the #1 seed and Dallen McFarlane at 145 lbs, who pinned all three of his opponents. Russell Scow at 135 lbs lost in overtime and Brent Riche lost at 140 lbs.

Lunargrand knockoffs for the win!
"Cole Haan flipped the script with the Lunargrand. An oxford with Nike's Lunar sole? Genius. Genius has a cost though. $250. I couldn't drop $250 on a shoe I wasn't going to wear that often (I can get by at work with some Wallabees and Desert Treks) so I passed. Now I feel like a fool because if they are as comfy as these Skechers they are worth every penny. So for a fraction of the cost I'm happy with my purchase. Plus I won't be too upset if they get scuffed up, which they eventually will. So yes. I own a pair of Skechers. *shivers*"
