Two southamerican posters, cheekily refering to each other.
Every year, the amount of ads that are banned or pulled seem to rise. British regulators are too quick to ban complain ad agency heads and creatives in the UK.
In Sweden - liberal land of the free - more ads are banned as they are discriminating against women. Though nudity isn't always the reason ads are banned - sometimes humour is.
Read more to see a selection of banned ads.
Ah, Ruby, you nipless plump anti-Barbie. It's been in every Body Shop window since 1998. First you tick off Mattel, and now you're banned from the Hong Kong rail system. Something about pubic hair & nipples. Or the distinct lack of either. (No, this isn't a banned ad per se, it's just refused from certain media venues, but the Hong Kong transit system is large enough to count for a sorta-ban).
Anti Roddick says it best;
Alert! Warning, drinking soft drinks causes funny hair. and apparently, so does TV.
Now this bugs me. And it bugs adgrunt Errol who brought this to my attention -
"I actually saw this ad in a community/family paper, three months before i read Campaign Brief Asia." he says about the first campaign - and the second makes him ask; "Now who copied who?... was it just a mere coincidence?... I'm sure there are ads out there which have tried the upside down trick routine too."
What's the difference between Jam and Juice? None - apparently...
making fun of scottish kilts and bathroom signs at the same time. Whoa. How original.
The singing body parts. Two commercials using a nifty post trick to make a body sing. Some body parts more gifted than others...
It had to happen. Deemed the most offensive ad of 2001, Opium's pale nude Sophie Dahl ad has inspired a Newcastle Brown spoof.
A pearl is a rare beautiful thing, when grown in nature. Hat off to Jesper on adlist who found these gems.
When making good headlines - have a thesaurus at hand. MMk?
Clayton alerted me and the adlisters to a new site out there this morning, Marketing-Myopia.com, and I looked it over briefly, not all too suprised about it's similarities with Adland
That Opium poster with the pale white nude Sophie Dahl - is now banned in most countries, like prude old Sweden and shockingly - Great Britain. Meanwhile back in Soho, FCUK are in trouble for that name again, you really should see Trevor Beattie's respons to that here. Stateside Ikea sells furniture with a leather teddy and a whip. Is sex the only way to get attention (and banned) these days?
You can picture it now: An advertising agency standing before the formidable board of rum lords Joseph E. Seagram and Sons, pitching an earth shattering idea in a pitch that will make all other contenders pale by comparison...
Seagrams: Is your idea original and innovative?
Ad agency: Hell yeah!
Seagrams: Will it sell boatloads of our Captain Morgan rum?
Ad agency: Hell yeah!
Seagrams: So what's your original and innovative idea that'll sell boatloads of our Captain Morgan rum?
Ad agency: Fake facial hair!
Seagrams: Excuse me?

I'm sure that many who have spent the time and effort to study through a whole year of Greek are wondering where do I go from here. Do I read through a book of the New Testament? Should I get a Greek reader like Mounce's Graded Reader or Deckert's Koiné Greek Reader? Should I read through another beginning grammar to reinforce what I don't know very well? If so, which one?
What books should I have on my shelf when I take this next step? Do I really need to spend the $150 and get the big BDAG Greek lexicon? When should I read through Wallace's Grammar Beyond the Basics? What about secular Greek? Is Attic similar to Koiné? How different is Homer?
While I have some of my own opinions, I sure that no one learns the same way as another, and that interests, access to resources, the presence of mentors or lack thereof, and of course time, all make a difference. The one thing that I would encourage all, is that once you are able to read passages in the New Testament with some ease, you will never regret it. It takes work. But the effort is worth the reward.
So what advice would you give? What questions do you have?

Our general interest e-newsletter keeps you up to date on a wide variety of health topics.
I recently had the privilege of meeting Dr. Francine Kaufman — a distinguished professor emerita of pediatrics and communications at the Keck School of Medicine and past president of the American Diabetes Association — at a Mayo Clinic endocrine lecture program. The focus of Dr. Kaufman's talk was on current and future technology in diabetes. As part of her presentation, Dr. Kaufman discussed artificial pancreas research and what must happen before the artificial pancreas can become a reality.
As you may know, the pancreas is an amazing, complex organ. The three components of the artificial pancreas — or closed loop system — are the insulin pump, the continuous glucose sensor and mathematical equations called algorithms. Algorithms determine how much insulin should be given minute-by-minute to keep the blood glucose in a healthy target range.
Many artificial pancreas research questions still need to be answered. These include:
The development of the artificial pancreas will more than likely be implemented in steps. One existing insulin pump and sensor alerts the wearer of an oncoming event, automatically stopping the insulin pump if the person doesn't act on the warning. The system is available in much of the world, but the manufacturer is still awaiting Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in the United States. Two other major companies are also awaiting FDA approval for integration of their insulin pump and glucose monitor products.
The future looks good for the artificial pancreas, or closed loop system. We just have to let researchers sort through the remaining questions — I'm hoping that will be sooner than later.

My daughter was born with cranial facial anomalies and has required several surgeries for that. She also developed psoriasis and then gastroparesis and now type 1 diabetes. We would so love an artificial pancreas. We have put the cranial facial issues on hold, for fear of infection with surgeries. Please help!
I have been Type 1 diabetic for the past 18 years, since I was 10 years old. I adopted a plant-based eating lifestyle about 2 years ago, once I learned about the many health benefits it offers. I not only cured my chronic hives, I also decreased the amount of insulin I need and increased my control! After 2 years of researching the science behind vegan lifestyles, I have discovered some very important studies being done which are strongly linking dairy consumption during gestation to Type 1 Diabetes. This is some very important information and I hope that more research can be done for expectant mothers.
Ive been a type 1 for 49 years now Im 55 years old been on a pump for 5 years and love it. started showing some of sign of being a diabetic for so long hands and legs feel like they are a sleep alot but when my mother asked the dr. 49 years ago how long i would live he told her at lease to i was 30 i guess i beat that if they need someone for research im there man i agree with all these comments some times i think type 1 diabetic get forgot about
I am 51 years old and have been a type 1 diabetic for close on 38 years. Within the last 6 - 8 years I have noticed a marked insensitivity to hypoglycema. An annually repetitive pattern is now emerging whereby for roughly 7 months of every year my response to my insulin injections is mostly unpredictable - the more physically active I become, the higher my bloodsugar levels - circa 285 -385 mg/dl. If I remain physically idle all day then it is the exact opposite. Low normal to extreme hypo bouts tend to constantly recur. For the last 3 to 4 months of every year I seem to be repetively hyp-glycaemic. In my country - The Republic of Trinidad & Tobago - sub-cutaneous insulin delivery systems are unavailable and I am of the opinion that this is the best solution for my problem.All vital signs for me are like that of a normal healthy man my age. Help........
I am wondering if the artificial pancreas will also give us digestive enzymes. I need them as bad as I need the insulin. I have only half of my pancreas. It is blocked with stone. The artifical pancreas should offer both insulin and digestive enzymes.
I am a diabetic type 1 since I was 19 years old,now I am in my 57th yr of Diabetic 1.
Y am very interested in cure for this disease by means of the the stems cells.
We are waiting for the artificial pancreas as above mentioned.
BBX9Lj I was a Type 2 diabetic in 2008 and went into Type 1 in February 2012. Wow, what a trip! I now have an insulin pump with a CGM monitor! I love it! I am still riding and training my horses and competing in dressage. I am afraid I will go down fighting to get on a horse! Fibromyalgia didn't take me down in 1995, my horses got me through that, and I pray God will get me through this as well. God bless all us us fighting this disease!
I have been diabetic since I was 17 years old, blood sugar count was 1000 in 1956, I have been on insulin shots since that date. I have had good doctors and nurses to help me and have lived a busy life, I have 1 son who is healthy without diabetes and am thankful for him, however my health is failing and I'm not able to do much of anything now. I'm so glad for all the research that is going on to get this condition for so many young and older people to help them. Thanks to all who have had a part in this time of searching for a way to help all.
Type 1 Diabetes is such an old disease in comparison to many other diseases. However it seems to be a disease that is slow to achieve a universal cure for those suffering from this disease. I have had type 1 Diabetes for 31 years, I have watched the destruction of my health, body and life increase with every passing year despite all my attempts to maintain good glucose levels and healthy habits as a diabetic. At 40 years old, I can no longer enjoy many of the things a typical forty year old married mother of two has the freedom and health to enjoy. My eye sight, muscles, intestinal system, and emotionally well being have all been challenged or tortured by this VERY unfair disease. Why is it that a patient can only have a pancreas transplant once they have reached death's doorstep and are in kidney failure? I have fought very hard to keep my kidneys healthy and had always hoped that the fact that my kidneys are in great shape would make the hope of a transplant that much more real for me. I'm dying, plain and simple. A slow, painful and very cruel death faces me everyday and my outlook on life and a future with my family fades every single time I read where research is at with a transplant or a cure for someone like me. I want to live, I want to be pain free, I want to live the life I have dreamt about since I was 9 years old.

OCtober 5, 2012
Simon School Working Paper No. FR 11-29
This chapter discusses how applied researchers in corporate finance can address endogeneity concerns. We begin by reviewing the sources of endogeneity - omitted variables, simultaneity, and measurement error - and their implications for inference. We then discuss in detail a number of econometric techniques aimed at addressing endogeneity problems including: instrumental variables, difference-in-differences estimators, regression discontinuity design, matching methods, panel data methods, and higher order moments estimators. The unifying themes of our discussion are the emphasis on intuition and the applications to corporate finance.

Greendale girls tennis
The first doubles team of Gabby Weber and Hannah Marquardt, both seniors, will play in this week's WIAA Division 1 State Individual Meet.
The pair qualified by placing fourth in a sectional on Oct. 4 at Greenfield High School.
Weber and Marquardt, with a 13-11 record, will take on Allie Taylor and Bobbi Stricker of Waunakee (22-5) at 3 p.m. Oct. 11 at the Nielsen Tennis Stadium in Madison. If they win, they will play again at 8:30 a.m. Oct. 12.
Also at the sectional, third singles player Gordonna Nuhn finished third and wound up 20-6 on the season, the second doubles team of Claire Hetzel and Angela Gableman came in fourth (12-4) and first singles player Sasha Nuhn lost her first match (12-14).
Greendale tallied 19 points in the sectional for fifth place.
Franklin girls cross country
The Sabers won the four-team Oak Creek Fall Classic on Oct. 6 with all five scoring runners placing in the top 10.
Franklin, which will now try to defend its Southeast Conference title on Oct. 13 at Grant Park in South Milwaukee, scored 30 points to edge Lake Geneva Badger (34) with Greendale in third and Oak Creek in fourth.
Freshman Jensen Ritzow won, turning in a time of 15:15 for 4,000 meters. She beat a tough Greendale runner with four years of state experience. Ritzow is now the second-fastest Saber in school freshmen history and the fourth fastest for all ages.
Junior Katie Carlino ran her best 4,000-meter race as well, running alone from the get go to place third. Other scoring runners included Katelyn Salzburger in seventh, Melanie Hansen ninth and Monica Sweet 10th.
"Many of the girls ran faster than our last 4,000-meter race in September," said coach Regina Schindel. "With little competition, the girls were able to push themselves quite well. We have a lot more room to improve in the next two weeks. The girls have shown in the 5,000-meter races that they can run faster over 4,000 meters."
The junior varsity had a large margin over the other three schools to get the win as well.
Franklin boys cross country
The Sabers turned in a victorious effort at the Oak Creek Fall Classic on Saturday.
The effort was the final tune-up before Saturday's Southeast Conference meet at Grant Park in South Milwaukee.

Evan Watters led the way on the 5,000-meter course with a third-place showing of 17:09 while teammate Nikolai Grabowski was fourth in 17:10 and Zach Lee fifth in 17:11.
Other scoring runners included Sam Harmeyer in seventh (17:35) and Max Fassbender in 11th (17:52).
Also running were Ben Alt in 23rd (18:40) and Matt Piotter in 29th (18:53).
"I was pleased with the overall performance," said coach Tyler Fyock. "Max (Fassbender) running almost a minute (personal record) was huge for us going into conference next week. The fifth runner is going to be so important and it was great to see this talented freshman step up."
For conference, the varsity girls race at 10:50 a.m. while the boys will go off at 11:30 a.m.

Oak Creek boys soccer
The Knights had a positive end to the regular season, beating nonconference foe Milwaukee South, 3-0, on Oct. 4 after closing out the Southeast slate with a 1-0 triumph over Kenosha Indian Trail on Oct. 2.
Oak Creek finished with an 11-4-2 overall mark and finished third in the Southeast. The Knights earned the fourth seed in the WIAA Marquette sectional and hosted 13th seeded Greendale in a WIAA regional semifinal on Oct. 9.
If they won that game, they would advance to a regional final back at Oak Creek East Middle School on Oct. 11 against most likely fifth-seeded West Allis Hale. Oak Creek beat Greendale, 4-0, in the season opener but lost 2-1 to Hale in mid-September.
Against South, goals were claimed by Bryson Breugger (Dylan Johnson assist), Johnson (Christian Alfaro assist) and Matt Hargreaves.
In the conference victory over Trail, Alfaro notched a goal in the 14th minute with help from Johnson as Zach Zelten had two saves.
Greendale girls swimming
Victories in five events were not enough for the Panthers in a 92-78 dual loss to Pewaukee on Oct. 3.

"The girls swam hard, and I was happy to see that they were willing to step it up on all of their races," head coach John Wilkinson said.
The Greendale junior varsity placed fourth in an invitational at Racine Park on Saturday.
Franklin girls golf
Two young Sabers golfers gained valuable experience in WIAA sectional competition last week at Wanaki in Menomonee Falls.
Freshman Megan Hessil shot a competitive 18-hole score of 87, going out in 44 and coming back in 43 to finish 14th individually while sophomore Kaitlin Bowe carded a 102 total (53 and 49) to take 41st. An individual score of 81 was needed to advance to state.
Greendale boys soccer
The Panthers closed the regular season with a 4-3 loss to Wauwatosa West in double overtime on Oct. 3.

Franklin boys volleyball

The Oak Creek girls swim team swam at the Racine Park Junior Varsity Sprint Invitational this Saturday and several personal best times were recorded.
They included Stefanie Prater in the 100 backstroke, Rachel Haselow in the 100 backstroke and 100 free style, Sara Zyhowski in the 50 free, Abby Richter in the 100 breaststroke, Abby Werkowski in the 100 breaststroke, and Angelica Romero, Rhianna Duwe, Amanda Mozejewski, Amanda Janquart and Katie Pietrzkowski, all in the 100 freestyle.
Oak Creek girls volleyball
The Knights had a busy but sound week as they split Southeast Conference duals with Kenosha Tremper (losing in three games) and Racine Horlick (winning in five sets) and then taking fourth of 12 in the Brookfield East Invitational on Oct. 6.
Oak Creek closed out its Southeast Conference dual meet season with a match earlier this week against Kenosha Indian Trail and now they and Franklin will now prepare to take in the Southeast Conference Tournament at Racine Park on Oct. 13.
In the East Tournament, Quincey Anderson (13 kills and four blocks) and Alayna Quinn (63 assists, 13 aces and 34 digs) had big days while Sabrina Abuzahra also had 13 aces.
Against Horlick, lots of hands contributed to the win, including Anderson with 12 kills and three blocks, Quinn with 25 assists and six aces, Aliina Klatt with six aces and Rachel Bragstad with 14 digs.
In the loss to Tremper, Sara Januszewski had six kills, Quinn 11 assists and 13 digs and Anderson five aces.
Whitnall cross country
The Falcons boys placed third with 120 points in the Westosha Central Invitational on Oct. 4, while the girls were eighth with 191 points.
Both teams will compete in the Woodland Conference Meet at 4:20 p.m. Oct. 12 at Grant Park Golf Course.
Franklin boys soccer
The Sabers closed out their Southeast Conference campaign on a positive note with a 2-0 win over Racine Case on Oct. 2.
The Sabers (7-10-1 overall) earned the ninth seed in the WIAA Marquette sectional and visited eighth-seeded New Berlin West for a WIAA regional semifinal on Oct. 9. If they won that game, they would advance to a regional final, likely at defending state champion and sectional top seed Marquette on Oct. 11.
In the win over Case, the Sabers got goals from Pablo Guzman (assist Josh Martens) and from James Yang (Alex Huerta). Ahmad Mahmoud made the lead stand up with eight saves.
Whitnall boys soccer
A 3-0 first-half lead was not enough as the Falcons lost a 4-3 double-overtime decision to New Berlin West on Oct. 1.
Jamie Wunrow, Zach Barnhart and Petar Miskov all scored in the first 12 minutes as Whitnall assumed its early lead. West came back, though, and won the game with an overtime goal at 99 minutes.
The Falcons also fell to Pius XI, 3-0, on Oct. 3 in the regular-season finale.
They visited Oconomowoc on Oct. 9 in the first round of WIAA Division 1 tournament play. If they won, they would likely travel to top seed Kettle Moraine on Oct. 11.
Whitnall girls tennis
The Falcons did not advance anyone out of a WIAA Division 1 subsectional on Oct. 1 at Brookfield East.
They tallied four points to tie for 10th place in the sectional.

FEATURED CONVENTION CENTER: The Los Angeles Convention Center, Los Angeles, CaliforniaThursday, May 29th, 2008
The Los Angeles Convention Center is not your typical convention center in LA. Aside from its world-class facilities, LACC has also been recognized by the US Environmental Protection Agency as an "earth-friendly green venue� by recycling over 50% of its waste.
What makes it easily convenient as a convention center is that LACC is located strategically in the heart of Los Angeles:
It is adjacent to the STAPLES Center, Financial district and Civic Center; and
It is rightly positioned at the hub of major freeways, LA Dash Transit System, Metrolink Trains and Metro Rail and Bus Systems.
The Los Angeles Convention Center boasts of the most technologically advanced, architecturally pleasing and functionally superb venues in the world with a total size of 720,000 square feet of exhibition alone, not to mention the 147,000 square feet of meeting room space. LACC is the right place to host any event of all sizes.

If you think you know everything there is to know about pranks and hoaxes, the joke just may be on you. Take this quiz to learn why the merrymaking day came to be, how it's celebrated in different places and some of the best pranks of all time.
Start Quiz »
You scored
0 out of 30
Question 1 of 30
First off, what's the holiday really called?
April Fools' Day
You'd be surprised how many people excitedly yell "April's Fool!" upon completion of a prank.
April Fool Day
April's Fools Day
Question 2 of 30
What is one theory for the origin of April Fools' Day?
There was a superstition about babies born on April 1, being a little dim.
A change to the calendar caused confusion in France.
And we'll see why calendar confusion could make one a fool …
King George III was born April 1, and people thought he was stupid.
Question 3 of 30
The calendar confusion came from …
April was added to the year in the 1500s, and not everyone knew.
French people celebrated the new year based on the Julian, not Gregorian, calendar.
Supposedly, those who didn't follow the new Gregorian calendar were made fun of for celebrating the new year in April, per the Julian calendar.
No one knew how to read a calendar.
Question 4 of 30
Some argue that the calendar interpretation isn't true. Why?
because legal recognition of the Julian new year was during Easter, not April 1
because the French traditionally celebrated the new year on Jan. 1
Although the French had a legal new year during Easter, most people always celebrated the new year on Jan. 1.
Question 5 of 30
What is the French term for "April Fools' Day"?
Imbecile d'Avril
Poisson d'Avril
Bonne Poisson d'Avril, tout le monde!
Feu d'Avril
Question 6 of 30
So what's a poisson?
Happy April Fish Day, everyone!
Question 7 of 30
Huh? Why a fish, exactly?
because fish are stupid like fools
because fish smell … like fools?
No one really knows for sure.
Although fish being smelly seems like a good enough reason to make them a symbol for gullible folks.
Question 8 of 30
OK, but what's a theory about where the fish came from?
the tradition of representing Christianity with a fish symbol
the symbol for the Pisces astrological sign, which falls around April 1

Question 10 of 30
A professor at Boston University pranked the Associated Press by telling it that April Fools' Day started how?

The professor said his dad started the holiday. Remember to double check all statements when you're talking to a professor who studies the history of American humor.
A newspaper sold an inaccurate story as a "joke" to the public to save face.
A Roman emperor made his jester king for the day and declared April 1, a day of silliness from there on out.
The professor said his dad started the holiday. Remember to double check all statements when you're talking to a professor who studies the history of American humor.
Question 11 of 30

The Irish Times claimed the government was going to have a prohibition on alcohol.
The government was probably unamused by The Irish Times' prank but not as panicked as the citizens.
Guinness claimed there was a stout shortage, and it would be making root beer instead.
The queen said Ireland was coming back to the British fold.
Question 15 of 30

a claim that chocolate worms would populate the soil around a planted Cadbury Creme Egg

Question 22 of 30

Question 24 of 30
What prank did Google pull in 2007?
It pretended it lost all its users' passwords.
It claimed users could get all their Gmail emails printed out on paper and mailed to them.

Question 26 of 30
A 1998 satire piece by a physicist convinced some people that …

Question 28 of 30
National Public Radio published an April 1, piece online titled "Why Doesn't America Read Anymore?" What made it a joke?
The link directed readers to watch the comments to see if people responded only to the headline.
Many commenters were outraged by the contents of the article … that they clearly hadn't read.
It was in Farsi.
It was a blank screen.
Question 29 of 30
What event was no joke on April 1, 2012?
Mount Eyjafjallajokull erupted in Iceland.
A whoopee cushion factory caught fire and burned to the ground.

QUOTE (Smedsthejet @ Jan 14 2007, 09:39 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Fair points there but what's missing is your opinion on Schottenheimer. Do you want him to be your next HC? If not, who do you want and why not Schottenheimer?
I wouldn't want him as the HC. I think the team is going in the wrong direction. They need to hire a strong GM, and then go find a coach that he can work with. But since they're obviously not doing that, then I would hope they go after an offensive minded coach. I think they are, being that they just gave Capers an extension a few days ago.
I don't see Schottenheimer as the best choice, but considering the selection out there it just may happen. I would rather have him than Martz, Carroll, and Cameron. I think Cameron would only be great here if he brought LT along with him. I mean, you put LT on a field, and how can you not make every play look sensational?

The Emery High baseball season came to close with two losses in the opening weekend of the 3-A state baseball tournament. Pine View defeated Emery 8-5 and then Ben Lomond finished off the Spartans 2-1.
In the tournament opener, Emery faced the Pine View Panthers who finished second in Region 9 behind Snow Canyon. Pine View had a record of 13-5. Josh Eden began the first inning with a homerun and also hit a homerun in the seventh inning.
In the second ball game of the day, Emery faced the Ben Lomond Scots, Region 8's fourth place team. Ben Lomond had a record of 5-15.
The Uintah Utes were the host team for the day as they were the first place team in Region 10. Uintah was 14-4 coming in to the day.
Uintah defeated Ben Lomond 3-1 before losing to Pine View 6-2. All three of these teams advanced to St. George this week to continue the tournament.
Emery met all three of these teams in the first two weeks of the season. Emery defeated Uintah 4-2 to start the season, defeated Ben Lomond 17-9 in a tournament in St George and lost to Pine View 11-5, also in St George.

SG300-5SG9000-5SG9000-10SG9000-20SG9000-30/40, SG300-10/35, SG600 and SG900 units all have the SSL Proxy functionality present by default. This change does not impact SG210, SG510, SG810 or SG8100 units.
When regenerating a software license for the above-mentioned hardware (common when adding or removing a feature from a licensed product), an SSL Proxy license will be added. The addition of an SSL Proxy license can cause traffic directed to SSL sites to be blocked in the following use cases:1. If all of the following are true:
2. If at any time in the past an SSL-Intercept policy was created, but not disabled because there was no valid SSL Proxy license.3. If a SOCKS proxy or "Default" service is configured to intercept, and protocol detection has been enabled (again, this is disabled by default).In these cases, blockage occurs when SSL traffic goes to a server that uses an SSL certificate that is not trusted by the ProxySG appliance. When this happens, the client will not be given an option to accept the untrusted certificate and the client will be delivered an exception page (denial). To prevent these blockages, you can do one of two things:A) Add a policy to disable SSL interception • In the Visual Policy Manager, create a NEW "Web Access Layer" (do NOT reuse an existing one for this). • Change the action on the rule to "Disable SSL Detection" instead of the "deny" present in that rule by default. • This layer should be placed last to ensure the rule is applied. To change its location, click the Edit menu, then "Reorder layers..." option. o If you are using a combination of policies using the Visual Policy Manager and another policy file such as Local or Central, please open a support ticket for assistance in getting this policy installed in those files.
B) Disable protocol detection on all service ports where SSL traffic may inadvertently go.NOTE: Regenerating the license (and therefore adding the SSL Proxy license) is a permanent change. You cannot revert the license to remove the SSL Proxy functionality.
Previously, the SSL Proxy license was offered as an option that was purchased separately. Complimentary SSL Proxy licenses are now offered to provide more functionality on the latest generation hardware at no additional cost. Complimentary licenses are not available on older-generation hardware.
This is an intentional change, and thus there is no "resolution" for this.
Do not regenerate the license if you wish to retain the old functionality.

Your life can change in just a simple conversation.
There are so many monumental moments at AU that just a simple conversation can change everything. It happens in the classroom, on campus, with the people who come here to speak, through internships and in the things I do downtown. This is a time in my life when I'm both forming my beliefs and open to new ideas. AU helps me make the most of that.

Clermont will face either Saracens or Toulon in the Heineken Cup Final after battling past a spirited Munster outfit 16-10 on Saturday.
Clermont will face either Saracens or Toulon in the Heineken Cup Final after seeing off a spirited Munster outfit 16-10 at Stade de la Mosson.
It was far from a smooth ride for the tournament favourites, who were made to sweat by a Munster side that came agonisingly close to progressing.
As it was, however, les Jaunards deserved their win after a strong first-half showing put them in the driving seat at 13-3 up going into the break.
Sunday's semi-final duo will be encouraged by what they witnessed though as Clermont showed signs of flakiness when the finish line neared.
The first-half was unsurprisingly uncompromising as both packs went head-to-head, but it was Clermont who won the collisions to lead at the break through Napolioni Nalaga's try and two Morgan Parra penalties.
Ronan O'Gara had kicked the visitors into an early lead but they struggled to deal with the power of the Top 14 side.
Munster raised the intensity after the interval and Denis Hurley reduced the deficit, but Parra's third three-pointer was enough to take Auvergne to Dublin.
Despite appearing to be on the decline and residing outside the play-off places in the PRO12, the Irish province shocked Harlequins 18-12 at the Twickenham Stoop in the quarter-finals.
With the inspirational Paul O'Connell back from injury and O'Gara seemingly saving his best for Europe, Rob Penney's men have re-found their resilience and belligerence.
Their forwards were impressive early on, driving Clermont back and allowing the Ireland international fly-half to kick them ahead.
However, it wasn't long before the hosts were asserting their authority and, after a spell of pressure, Nalaga stepped inside and touched down under the posts. Parra added the conversion and then a penalty as Auvergne led 10-3 with just 14 minutes gone.
The French outfit continued to dominate the opening period but a second three-pointer from their half-back was all they had to show for their efforts in the first half.
Although the visitors started the second period well, Vern Cotter's star-studded team were soon moving through the gears again. After Munster had infringed at the breakdown once more, Parra was on target from the tee for the fourth time in the encounter.
But the Irish refused to cede and they gradually got back into the game. O'Gara, directing operations well, produced a neat grubber which Hurley collected for an excellent score. All of a sudden it was Clermont who were struggling but they held out for a spot in the final.

Upon closer review of the recent Ottawa Citizen editorial board with the infamous climate change denier Dr. Tim Ball, we here at the DeSmogBlog Team have uncovered even further evidence about how outrageous Dr. Ball actually is.
In the PR world we call it staying on message, listen to this interview if you are interested in how not to do an interview. We here at the DeSmogBlog Team appreciate the PR practitioner providing Dr. Ball with the bad advice.
Check out these great quotes that have been captured for time immemorial by the good folks at the Ottawa Citizen.
Time-mark 43:56 min: Editor: "What do you think about government, do they have the wherewithall to make proper decisions about science?"
Please go to this time mark to check out Dr. Ball make the analogy that the scientists at Environment Canada are doing exactly what Chuck Guite did in the Sponsorship Scandal.
Time-mark 56 min: Dr. Tim Ball: "CFC's were never a problem…. it's only because the sun is changing"
Time-mark 57 min: Dr. Tim Ball: "What's wrong with global warming? There are lots of positive benefits to global warming."
Scary thing is that the media are actually taking this guy seriously.

I also have a PhD, mine in biochemistry from work with a Nobel Laureate at UCLA, and I also have an MD from the University of Miami.
The most obvious thing to any real scientist is that this "debate" does not exist within the scientific world. Global warming is a FACT within the scientific world. There is no debate in scientific literature.
The only debate is from coming from charlatans like Dr Ball and fools like GW Bush, not scientists. Dr Ball has left the scientific world and published nothing within the scientific literature about this, because his "facts" are manufactured and interpreted with malice and supported by his ridiculous superficial childish arguments that no scientist would allow in any scientific journal.
Was his retirement from the scientific community due to early onset dementia? Surely there is an explanation for his loss of any significant fact based thought process, which he presumably once possessed.

Canada wins bronze at Pan Am Championships in women's sitting volleyball
SAO PAULO, Brazil (October 1, 2011)– Allison Lang of Edmonton scored 14 points to lead Canada to a straight sets (3-0) victory over Colombia for the bronze medal on Saturday night at the Pan Am Championships in women's sitting volleyball.
The U.S., took the gold medal match over Brazil 25-13, 25-13, 25-15. Brazil grabbed the last berth for the 2012 Paralympic Games by advancing to the final against the Americans. The U.S., had gained its Paralympic berth this past summer with a silver at the world championships.
Amber Skyrpan of Edmonton and Leaha Hickman of Lashburn, Sask., added 12 and 10 points apiece for the Canadians who completed the tournament with a 2-3 overall record.
''We played a great serving and blocking game against Columbia,'' said Canadian team captain Danielle Ellis of Surrey, B.C., who was named the top defensive player of the tournament.
''We made huge strides, both as individuals and as a team in the past year. We managed to close the gap between us and the top teams in our zone and the world. We have the capability and this experience was what we needed to be able to compete at the next level."
Canada fielded a 10-member team with three members from Alberta: Allison Lang, Amber Skyrpan and Jolan Brunner, all of Edmonton. Danielle Ellis and Jordan Funnell are both from Surrey, B.C.; Karen McKoy and Chantal Beauchesne, both of Ottawa.
Manitoba had two players: Emerald Kehler of MacGregor and Leanne Muldrew of Winnipeg. Leaha Hickman of Lashburn, Sask., rounded out the squad.
Dusty Freimark of Edmonton is the head coach and Janna Dubyk of Edmonton, the assistant.

Give Up Tanning in the New Year
It could save your life and your looks
December 30, 2010 (New York, NY) - Almost 36 percent of the women and 12.2 percent of the men aged 18-24 surveyed in a recent study tanned indoors in the last year, according to the journal Archives of Dermatology. These young people may believe they look better with a tan, but in fact they are putting themselves at risk for skin cancer and aging their skin prematurely.
Tanning machines emit dangerous ultraviolet (UV) radiation, and frequent tanners using new high-pressure sunlamps may receive as much as 12 times the annual ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation they would receive from regular sun exposure.
"Our hope for the new year is that people begin to understand that tanning beds are dangerous and very harmful to the skin," said Perry Robins, MD, President, The Skin Cancer Foundation. "We hope in 2011 that use of tanning beds will decrease."
UV radiation is a proven human carcinogen, and is linked with a higher risk of all forms of skin cancer, including potentially deadly melanoma, which is the most common form of cancer among young adults 25-29 years old. On average, indoor tanners are 74 percent more likely to develop melanomas than non-tanners. They are also 2.5 times more likely to develop squamous cell carcinoma and 1.5 times more likely to develop basal cell carcinoma, the two most common skin cancers.
The damage caused by the UV radiation emitted by the sun and tanning beds is cumulative and often irreversible. The destructive process of photoaging - premature skin aging due to UV exposure - produces profound structural changes in the skin including fine wrinkles, deep grooves, blotchiness, sagging and a leathery texture. Some of these changes may appear as early as the age of 20 in anyone who has spent a great deal of time exposing their skin to UV radiation during childhood and teen years.
"Chronic exposure to UVA radiation accelerates the aging of skin five to seven years," said Philippe Humbert, MD, head of the Department of Dermatology at the University Hospital of Besan on and Director of the Laboratory of Cutaneous Biology at the University of Franche-Comte in Besan on, France.
In addition to the obvious health risks and link to premature aging, the tanned look is no longer in fashion. The trend started with Hollywood actresses such as Julianne Moore, Cate Blanchett, Nicole Kidman and Gwyneth Paltrow and is now taking hold. Natural skin is now generally viewed as modern while tanned skin is viewed as dated. The Skin Cancer Foundation's Go With Your Own GlowTM campaign encourages women to embrace their natural skin tone. For more information about Go With Your Own GlowTM please visit www.SkinCancer.org.

The Skin Cancer Foundation is the only global organization solely devoted to the prevention, detection and treatment of skin cancer. The mission of the Foundation is to decrease the incidence of skin cancer through public and professional education and research. For more information, visit, www.SkinCancer.org.

UAlbany Study Finds Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) Outcomes Vary by Race
Older White Americans Risk Highest Mortality, while Asian-Americans Face Lowest Odds
Older White Americans Risk Highest Mortality, while Asian-Americans Face Lowest Odds
ALBANY, N.Y. (July 1, 2013) -- Older white patients in the U.S. have the highest rate of mortality from certain types of stroke among all racial and ethnic groups, a study by health researchers at the University at Albany finds.
Assistant Professor Feng (Johnson) Qian, who led the UAlbany study into racial and ethnic components to AIS outcomes.
The study, published in Circulation: Cardiovascular Quality and Outcomes, investigated the long-term outcomes of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and whether they vary by race and ethnicity. AIS is characterized by the cessation of the blood supply to parts of the brain due to atherosclerosis or a clot that has blocked a blood vessel.
Using the American Heart Association Get With the Guidelines (GWTG)-Stroke Registry in conjunction with a Medicare claims data set, the study team, led by Feng (Johnson) Qian, assistant professor of Health Policy, Management & Behavior at the University at Albany School of Public Health, examined whether 30-day and one year outcomes differed by race/ethnicity among older patients with AIS. Qian's is the first such study that included Asian-American stroke patients.
The team studied more than 200,000 AIS patients 65 years and older from 926 U.S. centers participating in the GWTG-Stroke program between April 2003 and December 2008. The study determined that among older patients with acute ischemic stroke, significant differences existed in 30-day and one-year outcomes by race and ethnicity, even after adjustment for stroke severity, other prognostic variables, and hospital characteristics.
Older white patients with AIS had the highest 30-day mortality rates of any racial/ethnic group. Compared with older white patients with AIS, black and Hispanic patients were more likely to be readmitted to hospitals within one year, even after risk adjustment, and had comparable risk for one year mortality.
In comparison to other race/ethnicity groups, Asian-American AIS patients had fewer co-morbid conditions, higher median household income, and lower median body mass index. Asian-American patients received similar or even better evidence-based stroke care compared with whites and had the lowest risk-adjusted odds of one year mortality.
Racial and ethnic disparities in stroke care remain a major public health challenge, and the burden of stroke has been consistently reported to be higher in racial and ethnic minority groups. However, little is known as to whether there are racial or ethnic differences in long-term acute ischemic stroke outcomes.comments powered by Disqus

Independents Day
The Society of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center hosted its 6th Annual Spring Ball at The Metropolitan Museum of Art Monday night. Beneath the grand staircase, ablaze with candles provided by Harry Winston, Inc., the sole sponsor of the evening's proceedings, New York darlings such as Tory Burch, Caryn Zucker, Muffie Potter Aston, David & Julia Koch, and Amanda Ross—all done up in their best black-tie finery—mingled and sipped Champagne until the sound of gongs rang the assembled into dinner in the Temple of Dendur. There, inside the Egyptian temple commissioned by Emperor Augustus in 15 BC, the Grammy award-winning artist Diana Krall treated guests to a performance, before they got to their feet and danced late into the night. Clearly the celebrations weren't premature as the evening raised $1.5 million for The Society.

It may not be known truth nor is it generally exclaimed that the excessively wealthy throughout history become the ruling class ruling over the rest "like wolves over sheep."
Therefore in democracies individuals and groups are permitted to gather wealth to themselves as long as it is not through seriousl deprivation processes and as long as the wealth itself does not become the grounds for ruling.
What has been described as capitalism by those who opposed it was not necessary nor was it known under any name, not even existing as a system resembling anything like today when Jefferson and Madison were busy creating the basis for this new nation.
Today, however and never meant to be by its founders, money plays a significant role in the selection of members of government and money is employed in directing the manner that government functions and placing its weight on how and which laws are passed, even in which laws should play special prominence and which are to be executed or emphasized.
Therefore the growing disparity in the income or wealth of the rich, especially the excessively rich and that of the middle class, not to mention the poor becomes an important element when considering the dysfunctional processes in the best interest of our economy but also in viewing malignant aspects of an appropriately functioning republic.
We need to deal both from an economic basis and from a governmental functioning basis with whatever malignancy is invading what we describe as our national system. The issue of being "born equal" once significant in the American Revolution, today does even come up within hearing distance of those now well acquainted with the notion that money rules.

Ship Weight:2.64 Servings:32 Dosage:2 Tablespoon(s) Flavor:Concord Grape Buried Treasure Products - Colloidal Minerals Concord Grape - 32 oz. (946 ml) Buried Treasure Concord Grape Colloidal Minerals is a 100% plant derived colloidal mineral supplement consists of a natural assortment of over 70 minerals derived from plants growing throught the Eden era. Trace amounts of these minerals are essential for health and vitality. These minerals are harvested from a plant material known as humic shale in Utah. they are of the same type found in fruits and vegetables. They are nontoxic, water soluble and more easily assimilated than metallic minerals. What are the benefits? Physical well-being is more directly dependent upon the minerals taken into the system than upon calories or vitamins or upon the precise proportion of starch, protein or carbohydrates consumed. The agricultural soils on which most foods are grown have had their mineral content greatly reduced over time due to the harvesting of crops, bad farming practices and wind and rain erosion. As a result, the current food supply contains greatly reduced amounts of essential trace minerals. Buried Treasure plant derived colloidal minerals provide these missing trace minerals. Their small particles are naturally ionic carrying a negative charge that is attracted to the intestinal wall. These minerals are also very water-soluble thus providing maximum absorption and bio-availability The Liquid Advantage Most experts agree that the need for vitamin, mineral, and herbal supplements is greater today than ever before, because the majority of our food supply is over processed and adulterated, leading to a depleted nutrient content. Until now, nutritional supplements have been available mostly in the form of tablets, capsules, and softgel caps. This brings up the question of absorption of these products. In order for vitamins and minerals to be utilized by the body, they must be absorbed by the blood cells from the bloodstream after passing through the digestive tract. Studies have questioned whether tablets, capsules, and softgel caps dissolve quickly enough to be effective, if they dissolve! Therefore, the key to nutrient effectiveness is directly related to the amount of active ingredients and the rate of their delivery and assimilation into the bloodstream. In order for nutrients to be bioavailable (the percent of active ingredients that actually reaches the bloodstream), the digestive system is required to break down the binders, fillers, and other excipients used to hold the active ingredients together in tablets. Gelatin capsules and softgel caps require the break down of plasticizers, and beef and pork byproducts which are used as ingredients in most capsules. Artificial colors are often added to softgel caps to ensure a constant color. Because the digestive system becomes less effective with age and when the body is under stress, assimilation of nutrients becomes less than optimal. Research shows that after age 50, the utilization of essential nutrients is greatly reduced. So when nutrient absorption may be most critical, our bodies lack the ability to break down the tablets, gelatin capsules, and softgel caps.
