Preliminary PMI reading shows China's manufacturing activities picked up in October. The 50.9 reading was better than the expected 50.4 and higher than September's 50.2. A reading over 50 signals expansion.
But Chinese shares fell regardless, on fear that China's central bank may tighten liquidity again. The Shanghai Stock Exchange Composite Index lost 0.9%. The Hong Kong Hang Seng Index lost 0.7%.
The 7-day repo rate, a key gauge for liquidity in the banking sector, opened at 5%, a four-month high today. Financial Times reports:
A big jump in credit issuance in recent months and hefty capital inflows from abroad have led investors to brace for another round of policy tightening by the central bank. The People's Bank of China hinted that this might be coming last week when it said credit growth had been on the fast side.[PBoC] followed up this hint by withdrawing a small amount of cash from the financial system. By refraining from conducting open-market operations for three consecutive sessions, the effect will be a net drain of Rmb58bn ($9.5bn) from the interbank market this week as previously issued bills mature.
The interbank rate stabilized later during the day.
People need to to chill out and don't read PBoC's $9.5 billion net drain as prelude to monetary tightening, argue HSBC analysts Qu Hongbin and Sun Junwei:
With growth bottoming out, Beijing is surely less worried about slowdown risk, but it doesn't mean that they will start to tighten policy. September's spike in CPI was mostly due to seasonal factors and it is still too early to worry about broad-based inflation. To check property prices, Beijing will likely reply by lifting supply rather than tightening monetary conditions.
The S&P BSE SENSEX Index closed with 0.2% loss, after briefly surpassing three-year high. IT service provider Wipro (WIT) lost 4.4%. State-owned banks gained on news that the government would inject capital into these banks to guard against bad debt.
Brazil is scaling back its currency swap program now that real has firmed up.
Emerging Markets Stocks in the News:
India approved a proposal by Singapore Airlines to form a full-service airline in partnership with the Tata Group. India started to allow foreign carriers to own up to 49% stakes in local airlines last September.
Jet Airways, India's largest publicly traded carrier, fell 1.7% after reporting a record quarterly loss as demand declined and fuel cost increased.
Korean auto maker Hyundai frets over its brand image as it faces increasing competition from cheap Chinese autos and European luxury brands, home and abroad.
Unilever (UL) reported its worst quarterly sales growth rate in four years. The subdued performance was across the board – in developed countries and emerging markets.

That's my 3rd time in Marcos flat (widegate Street), I would like to put 5 stars, but I can't the 2 last times I've been here I stayed on the 2nd floor, this time I had a room at the top floor and was...... nothing special! some problems with the heater (solved immediatly by Marcos) and the walls were really bad, I could listen everything from the other rooms. But believe me...... there is not a better location than here and Marcos is really helpful!!! I'll come here again in the future....but at the 2nd floor!
Great location, you can enjoy major London attractions without using bus or tube. Easy check-in and check-out. The room and whole appartment is well equipped - in the kitchen there is all you might need during your stay. In the flat there are a few rooms that are rented, so you share the bathroom and kitchen. Those common parts are frequently cleaned so all is very neat. The room itself is nice and cosy. Liverpool Street Station within 1 minute walk, numerous restaurants and pubs just nextdoor. Highly recommended!
Friendly reception staff, room very small but ok, prime location
In contradiction to what I read in the reviews, I thought the place was pretty easy to find (I had taken a picture of where it was on Google maps, that really helped). Marcos was nice, but we didn't have that much contact with him, he showed us around and left us to it, and for us that was enough. The room was nice, it looked a bit like a hotel room, it's really convenient to have your own fridge and TV in the room. We didn't use the kitchen, but it looked nice and clean. The bathroom could use some fixing(I think they are busy doing that!), but worked fine as well. The place was a bit noisy (I once heard a child cry somewhere in the flat in the middle of the night) but not so much that it bothered us. The neighborhood was fine, I didn't feel unsafe, and Bethnal Green station really is conveniently close. The best thing about the room is that it's not so expensive, so if you're going to be out and about in Londen all day, and you just need a nice place to sleep, I would surely recommend one of Marcos's rooms!
I would not recommend this room to anyone. The room was tiny, half of the electronics were broken, the toilet didn't work, and the window didn't lock properly. Unless you only want somewhere in this area for a night I would look elsewhere.
Room is small (8'x12'), but very clean and suitable for someone traveling. Every room has a window, and the walls are thick enough that you don't hear your neighbors. Safe and close to the Liverpool Station, so tube and major bus routes are accessible without having to transfer to other lines. The room had a bed, night table, closet, dorm refrigerator, small table and chair, so it was a bit crowded and I had to move table and chair. Linens were clean and they furnish two huge towels, but no washcloth, so bring your own. The room also had an electric radiator, which worked very quickly to heat the room. The shower room was separate from the toilet, which is good because it doesn't tie up both when one is in use. The shower also used a point-of-use water heater, so you never ran out of hot water. It also had a small kitchen with a refrigerator, stove, microwave, toaster, electric kettle, pots, pans and table ware. All in all it was a very good experience as far as inexpensive London hotels go.
The only problems I could spot were that either the keys were not cut accurately or the locks were loose on the inside, because I had to jiggle the keys to make them work and the lady at the reception desk said other guests had the same problem. They did work, though, it just took a little time to learn the right way to jiggle them. Also the carpet on the stairs needs to be replaced because on some steps the tacks had torn loose, which could cause someone to trip and fall while they were carrying luggage up the steps (there is no lift). I was pleased enough so that I rebooked for four days on my return trip, so none of those were deal-breakers for me, even though the stairs were a bit hard on my knees (I'm an old guy in my 60s and I took too much luggage with me, as usual).
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
Everything was ok. Good location, perhaps sharing the bathroom with four more rooms made it a bit difficult sometimes, but it was not a surprise!. Thanks for a good time Marcos.
I do recommend this accommodation for anyone looking for a budget yet very clean and comfy place to stay in London. It's really close to Liverpool Str station and to many interesting things to see. I haven't met Marcos but there was no problem picking the keys up or giving them back.
Small room but had all you need. clean share facilities. Noisy street on weekend nights with pubs close by. Very close to liverpool street station and buses to get about London. Secure entry but no lift if you can't climb up to 3 flights of stairs.

A CPA may be engaged to examine and report on controls at a service organization related to various types of subject matter, for example, controls that affect user entities' financial reporting or controls that affect the security, availability, and processing integrity of the systems or the confidentiality or privacy of the information processed for user entities' customers. The applicable attestation standard for such engagements may vary depending on the subject matter. To make CPAs aware of the various standards available to them for examining and reporting on controls at a service organization, and to help CPAs select the appropriate standard for a particular engagement, the AICPA has introduced Service Organization Control Reports® and identified 3 different engagements (SOC 1®, SOC 2® and SOC 3®) that involve reporting on controls at a service organization. The table below identifies feature of each of these engagements.
In the attestation standards, a CPA performing an attestation engagement ordinarily is referred to as a practitioner. However, for SOC engagements the term service auditor rather than practitioner is used to refer to a CPA reporting on controls at a service organization and an user auditor is a CPA who audits and reports on the financial statements of a user entity.

To help firms navigate this emerging service area, establish a niche practice and help clients, prospects and service organizations understand the benefits of SOC engagements, the AICPA has created a number of free resources and marketing materials in a helpful toolkit for firms. In addition, firms may want to use the components of the AICPA's SOC toolkit for service organizations to explain to current and potential clients their SOC services.
The AICPA Peer Review Board recently approved SOC 1® and 2® engagements as must select engagements. This means that if a firm performs SOC 1® or 2® engagements, at least one such engagement should be selected during its peer review. Further, someone on the peer review team should have corresponding SOC 1® or 2® experience. Refer to Peer Review Alert 12-04 regarding the treatment of SOC engagements in a peer review.
If you are interested in participating in peer reviews to review SOC engagements, please visit the following links:

Non-CPA SOC Specialists
Additionally, the AICPA is looking for volunteers to participate in the approval process of peer reviews of firms that perform SOC engagements. Interested volunteers should contact the AICPA Peer Review Program technical staff at (919) 402-4502 or email@example.com.

Tom Roff (FHWA) and Steve Lewis (USDOT GIO) celebrated the culmination of joint work with NSGIC by announcing President Obama's signing of Public Law 112-441, which authorizes the use of federal funds for the production of statewide centerline data and attribution for all paved and unpaved public roads. NSGIC's Transportation for the Nation initiative (TFTN) has been working for a national road centerline dataset for many years, and this law provides the resources and driver for states to now collect all roads data within their boundaries and does not require the usual 20% state funding match for the effort. Planning for the data collection will begin in October, 2012, and the first data reporting will begin in 2014. Once again, NSGIC has provided significant national value encouraging the efficient and effective use of geospatial technology.

By NEMS Daily Journal
OXFORD – With sessions as varied as food policy, raising one's own food and tours of sustainable homes and farms, the fourth annual Gaining Ground Conference for Sustainable Living will be held in Oxford, March 1-3.
Registration is open to anyone with an interest in sustainability. Early registration, which ends Wednesday, is $85.
This year's conference is titled "Setting the Table."
"Basically, Mississippi buys about 80 percent of what we eat, and we export about 80 percent of what we grow," said Johnny Wray, president of Gaining Ground Sustainability Institute of Mississippi, who for 16 years led the Disciples of Christ denomination's efforts for disaster relief and sustainability.
"Clearly we have the capacity to feed ourselves," said Wray, who retired to raise pasture-raised beef on his family's Clay County farm. "There really are a lot of folks in the state – clearly a minority, but plenty of people – interested in these kinds of issues."
Friday's session will focus on promoting healthy food policy – from the perspective of both policy makers and food producers – within the state. Mark Winne, author of "Food Rebels, Guerilla Gardeners and Smart-Cookin' Mamas" will keynote the first day, and scheduled participants will range from growers to legislators and Mississippi Agriculture Commissioner Cindy Hyde-Smith.
Saturday's multiple sessions offer a host of hands-on opportunities in four strands – "Nourishing Kitchen," "Home Grown," "Smart Living" and "Make and Take." Mary Berry – farmer, winemaker, president of the Berry Center and daughter of poet and author Wendell Berry – will deliver Saturday's keynote address.
Sunday morning's tours include energy-efficient homes, sustainable farms and the University of Mississippi's Medicinal Plant Garden.
The Conference is a creation of Gaining Ground Sustainability Institute of Mississippi, founded by Mike and Alison Buehler of Starkville.
"We were increasingly interested in issues of sustainability when we were having children," Alison Buehler said. "We got interested in their health and what they were putting in their bodies and whether they would have enough resources when they were having children to have a decent life.
"Just being hungry for a community to share those thoughts with, we knew there had to be other people in Mississippi thinking about it," she said.
While Gaining Ground takes position on specific sustainability issues, it is otherwise apolitical.
"Even my husband and I don't agree on anything political," Alison Buehler said. "But we can agree on a lot of stuff when it comes down to living wisely. I think because we've drawn that line and mean it, we've got vegetarians and hunters and Tea Partiers and Occupy Wall Streeters."

text: "Waiting Times. Waiting lists are a huge problem in Great Britain. Some examples: 750,000 are on waiting lists for hospital admission; 40% of cancer patients are never able to see an oncologist; there is explicit rationing for services such as kidney dialysis, open heart surgery and care for the terminally ill. Further, minimum waiting times have been instituted to reduce costs. A top-flight hospital like Suffolk Est PCT was ordered to impose a minimum waiting time of at least 122 days before patients could be treated or the hospital would lose a portion of its funding."

At Foreign Policy, Jack C. Chow describes why, if elected, Rick Santorum would be great news for the AIDS fight in Africa.
Before he became president, few expected George W. Bush to be a global health activist. But Bush astounded his critics and supporters alike by launching a train of multibillion-dollar health rescue programs for the developing world, including the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR), the President's Malaria Initiative, and the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria. Bush, in launching PEPFAR in 2003, called it a "work of mercy" to save Africa and hailed what he called the "Lazarus effect" of anti-HIV drugs in saving AIDS patients from the brink of death and allowing them to lead more normal lives, quickly and inexpensively. PEPFAR and its associated programs, which have spent $39 billion to treat millions of people, have been recognized as a cornerstone of Bush's presidency. And in many countries receiving PEPFAR and Global Fund support, Bush and America have become synonymous with global health.
Back in 2002, when I was Secretary of State Colin Powell's special envoy on HIV/AIDS, I learned of Rick Santorum's call for a robust role for the United States in international health, an unusual and distinctive position for a senator from Pennsylvania, where jobs and the economy are dominant issues. Fast-forward to this year's Republican campaign for the presidency, where the most religiously conservative candidate, surprisingly, is the most fervent advocate for U.S. global health diplomacy.
Alone among his rivals, Santorum has staked out global health as one of his preferred instruments of asserting American power abroad. He is the only Republican candidate to declare he wants to "keep and expand" Bush's humanitarian aid push in Africa. In contrast, Mitt Romney is "very reluctant to borrow lots more money to be able to do wonderful things" if other countries and groups do not contribute more; Newt Gingrich has called for government-run foreign aid to be replaced with private incentives; and Ron Paul, a physician, has asserted that "all the foreign aid in the world will not transform Africa into a thriving, healthy continent."

Before playing their soccer games Thursday, Anna and Katelyn McCoy took a moment to enjoy another favorite activity: art.
The McCoy sisters, decked out in their soccer uniforms, were among the first to arrive at the GumTree Museum of Art for a reception celebrating the Tupelo Public School District's "Shared Treasures" exhibit. They viewed their own works and those by fellow Tupelo elementary students until it was time to leave for the soccer fields at Sportsplex.
Katelyn and Anna, who attend Parkway Elementary School, were thrilled to see their works in the art gallery.
Anna, a third-grader who entered the painting "Sewing Color" for the exhibit, said she enjoys art and soccer equally.
"In art, you can do pretty much anything," she said. "Even if you mess up, you can still make it something. It doesn't have to be exact. It can be anything."
Katelyn, who's in kindergarten, found her "Circus in Town" painting not far from Anna's.
"I like art because I love doing crafts," she said.
The reception, sponsored by the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal, featured the works of talented students at Carver, Church Street, Lawhon, Milam, Joyner, Rankin, Pierce Street, Thomas Street, Lawndale and Parkway elementary schools, as well as King Early Childhood Education Center.
"It's exciting for the kids," said Sarah Lambert, an art teacher at Rankin Elementary School. "It gives them a sense a pride that they created something."
"Shared Treasures" is on exhibit until Monday.

Food doesn't last long in Betty Williams' house. And it's not because she and her husband, Jack, are eating it. It's because she's giving it away.
Williams, 72, figures she makes between 100 and 150 cakes at Christmastime, from miniature loaves to full-size pound cakes. She also prepares food for people who are sick or for the families of folks who have lost a loved one.
"Sometimes, I'll fix something and take it to them for no reason," she said. "I just enjoy doing that."
For a dozen years, Williams, who lives in Hatley, has been making goodie bags for widows and widowers in her community.
"My mother passed away in 2000," she said. "I was so lost and empty and lonely. That particular summer, a lot of people in our area died, leaving behind widows and widowers."
Williams got the idea to make bags for each of them, filled with a miniature cake, a jar of homemade jelly, candy, Nabs, raisins and Kleenex.
"I put all that in brown bags and took it to them and I've been doing it every year since," she said. "It made me feel good – less lonely. To see the smiles on their faces means everything in the world to me. That's all the thanks I need."
The daughter of the late Floyd and Corinne Brasfield, Williams was born and raised in the Mount Zion community outside Smithville. The family had no electricity and Williams learned her way around the kitchen on a wood stove.
"I would stand on a chair at the stove to wash dishes," she said. "You'd put a pot of warm water over to the side of the stove to wash dishes in. My first recollection of cooking was standing on a chair and scrambling eggs at that stove."
Williams eventually learned to cook full meals, and when she and Jack eloped when she was 17, she could put a full meal on the table. She raised three children on those meals and now her grandchildren and great-grands enjoy them, too.
"I cook the same way now as I did back then," she said. "Of course, we make casseroles and things now we didn't do then. I cook mostly what I call soul food – peas, cornbread, potatoes, beans and corn."
Williams enjoys watching Paula Deen and Ree Drummond, the Pioneer Woman, on the Food Network and she's even used some of their recipes.
"I'd use a lot more of them if I knew how to work my computer better," she said. "When it comes to technology, you can put everything I know in a thimble and still have room to park the car."
Do you know a good cook? Send your nominations to Ginna Parsons, Cook of the Week, P.O. Box 909, Tupelo, MS 38802. Or you can fax them to (662) 842-2233 or email them to ginna.parsons@ journalinc.com.

Where I stayed
Not far into this leg, we stopped at the largest sea cave in the world... home to another gift shop and tourist attraction manufactured and engineered by the Americans. Parking at the top of the cliff and entering the gift shop, we had to pay $11 each to descend into the cave by elevator no less... descending the equivalent of a 12-storey building! There used to be an external staircase, but the Americans being Americans, that must have been too much effort for the lazy buggers to walk so an elevator shaft was bored instead in the 1960s
In the cave, one finds a colony of sea lions and various birdlife, but we couldn't get too close or use flash photography in case we disturbed the wildlife... of course blasting an elevator shaft with dynamite would have barely raised a whisker with the sea lions!
Back on the surface, we continued along the highway, having another 4 hours or more to drive to Seaside, right near the Oregon border with Washington. Whereas we'd spent roughly a week travelling the Cailfornian coast (excluding side trips inland), we were basically doing the whole Oregon coast in a single day! We didn't stop much, but we found the scenery to be not quite as spectacular as what we'd already seen.
Arriving in Seaside, which is a small coastal town that could be described as Portland's Victor Harbor, we made our way to our hostel a short distance from the downtown and beach. The hostel seemed to be a combination of hippy commune and highway motel, with weird staff that invited us to some meditation/chanting/yoga/pagan worship in the morning!
After checking in we wandered along the beach to downtown to find something to eat. As Mike had a craving for clam chowder, we settled on a seafood restaurant that looked reasonably busy, which generally signifies that the food is good. Mike got his clam chowder, together with a fisherman's basket that included battered and fried salmon and oysters (not recommended), while Brooke got good old fish and chips. After dinner it was back to the hostel for an early night and an early start, as we were anxious to get to Portland!

Thanks Mike. It'll be worth it! We got all this rain a little too soon, might have to delay a couple of weeks now to let things dry out some. I'm blaming my buddy (a roofer). Everytime he tears a roof off it rains. A lot! Found out he tour one off the other day.

Thanks Paul. Unfortunately when we built that pond we didn't put in a valve or any way to drain it down other than pumping it out. Also it is very deep with the edges dropping off quickly, and full of fish. It would take a lot of dirt to make any points. Long term plan is to build a tech. pond above the swimby ponds but if that never pans out (it will be big $$$) then your idea just might be an option someday.

-Mason to serve as Vice Chairman-
WASHINGTON -- Members of the Federal Election Commission have elected
Danny L. McDonald as Chairman and David Mason as Vice Chairman for 2001.
In December of each year, Commissioners elect a Chairman and Vice Chairman to serve for the upcoming calendar year. The Federal Election Campaign Act requires that the Chairman and Vice Chairman be of different political parties, and states that a member may serve as Chairman only once during a six-year term of office.
Chairman-elect McDonald, a Democrat, served as Vice Chairman of the Commission in 2000 and has served as Chairman and Vice Chairman in prior terms on the Commission.
Prior to his initial appointment in 1981, the Sand Springs, Oklahoma, native served as General Administrator of the Oklahoma Corporation Commission. Additionally, he served as Secretary of the Tulsa County Election Board and as Chief Clerk of that Board. Commissioner McDonald was a member of the Advisory Panel to the FEC's National Clearinghouse on Election Administration. He currently is President of the American Council of Young Political Leaders.
Commissioner McDonald received a B. A. Degree from Oklahoma State University and attended the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. He has served as a member of the JFK School Advisory Board for State and Local Government.
Vice Chairman-elect Mason, a Republican, was nominated to the Federal Election Commission by President William Clinton on March 4, 1998 and confirmed by the U.S. Senate on July 30, 1998.
Prior to his appointment, Mr. Mason was a Senior Fellow in Congressional Studies at the Heritage Foundation. He joined Heritage in 1990 and served at various times as Director of Executive Branch Liaison, Director of the Foundations U.S. Congress Assessment Project, and Vice President, Government Relations.
Commissioner Mason served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense, where he managed the Pentagons relations with the U.S. House of Representatives. One of his major accomplishments there was guiding base closing legislation to a successful conclusion.
He has served on Capitol Hill, as a Legislative Assistant to Senator John Warner, Legislative Director to Representative Tom Bliley, and Staff Director to then-House Republican Whip Trent Lott. He was active as a staffer and volunteer in numerous Congressional, Senate, Gubernatorial and Presidential campaigns, and was himself the Republican nominee for the Virginia House of Delegates in the 48th District in 1982.
Commissioner Mason attended Lynchburg College in Virginia and graduated cum laude from Claremont McKenna College in California. He is active in political and community affairs in northern Virginia and in the home education movement nationally. He and his wife reside in Lovettsville, Virginia, with their six children.
Created in 1975, the Federal Election Commission is an independent federal agency established to enforce limitations and prohibitions on contributions to federal candidates and committees, to require them to disclose their financial activities, and to administer the public financing program for Presidential elections.

Samsung Galaxy S III Pushes Ahead of the iPhone 4S in Q3
Shane McGlaun

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
iPhone 5 is expected to take the top spot in Q4
Research firm Strategy Analytics has announced its smartphone market share numbers for Q3 2012. The numbers show that Samsung Galaxy S III overtook the Apple iPhone 4S to become the world's best selling smartphone for Q3.
Samsung shipped 18 million Galaxy S III smartphones during Q3 of 2012. The quantity of units shipped gave Samsung's smart phone 11% of the smartphone market globally. Strategy Analytics attributes the Galaxy S III's large touchscreen and extensive distribution around the world along with generous operator subsidies as the main reasons for the smartphones success.
Apple shipped 16.2 million iPhone 4S smartphones, giving it second place in the global smartphone market. Much of the reason that the iPhone slipped from the top spot was because consumers were holding off to purchase the anticipated
iPhone 5
at the end of Q3. Apple shipped 6 million units of the iPhone 5 in Q3 of 2012 with very little time on market.
The total number of smartphones shipped in Q3 of 2012 added up to 167.8 million.
The Samsung Galaxy S III grew its market share significantly between Q2 of 2012 and Q3 growing from 3.5% to 10.7% of the global market. Comparatively, the iPhone 4S slipped from 12.7% of the market in Q2 of 2012 to 9.7%. The brand-new iPhone 5 grabbed 3.6% of the market.
However, the research firm expects the win for Samsung to be very short-lived. Strategy Analytics says that it expects the iPhone 5 to out ship the Galaxy S III in Q4 2012 allowing the iPhone to regain the title as the world's most popular smartphone.

What could be more fun than snacking while shopping? Few things, if you ask me. Add a glass of wine to the mix, and you've got a recipe for retail paradise. Such is the case with Charleston Wine + Food Festival favorite, the Shop, Sip + Savor event. Each year participating King Street stores open their doors and pull out gourmet goodies for a delicious shopping experience. And since this is the Festival's seventh anniversary, this year each store will be featuring a "Lucky 7" contest and offering up a special prize.
To differentiate which stores are involved, many deck their windows in Festival-themed displays. Last Friday afternoon I had the opportunity to help judge these window masterpieces and while there were many strong contenders—well done Bob Ellis Shoes, Annes, Cos Bar, and Bull Street Gourmet—there could only be one winner. And that prize went to...Copper Penny! The women's clothing boutique (and last year's winner) doubled their creative efforts for 2012 by taking the Charleston Wine + Food posters and making them into dresses and tops. Stop by to get a better look at the fantastic display.
As for the Shop, Sip + Savor event, it takes place Friday, March 2, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. and tickets are still available. To find out more, click here.

I am not a Jehovah's Witness, however I can answer many questions concerning the ideas and doctrines on which they disagree with mainstream Christianity. I have spent a great deal of time in ministry with current and ex-Jehovah's Witnesses, as well as those who have started to become disillusioned with the Watchtower Organization.
Jehovah's Witnesses are generally wonderful and moral people who are zealous for God. However, in their zeal, they have pledged allegiance to what they believe is God's spirit-directed organization. This allegiance blinds them from allowing God's word alone to work in them. My hope is to share the love of Jesus Christ with all who seek salvation, no matter their label or denomination. My experiences come from the relationship that I have with Him as the source of my daily strength. These experiences create an undeniable testimony of salvation by grace through faith in the cleansing blood of the Lamb of God. Through prayer and meditation on God's holy word alone, we find truth as revealed to us through the Holy Spirit.
As the word "organization" is misleading in this particular area, I want to be clear that, as a member of the body of Christ, the label or denomination of the church I attend is not the source of my salvation. I do not go to or through any organization for official knowledge or guidance. I go to God's word alone.
I have a Bachelor and Master's Degree with extensive educational experience.

East New York
East New York is located East of Brownsville, West of Ozone Park, South of Cypress Hills and North of Jamaica Bay.
If you are unfamiliar with the neighborhood, there are a few things to keep in mind. Rents in the neighborhood are significantly less than those in other parts of Brooklyn and NYC, mainly because of the distance from Manhattan and high crime rates. Many residents can be found in multi-family townhouses and recently-built subsidized single-family townhouses.

Went to Belfast with Keith for the afternoon/evening. Headed into Shaftsbury square and went shopping. I was intrested in looking around for a copy of Micro Mart ( a trade rag for computer components) as I couldn't find it in eason's back in Newry. Oddly, I did find it in Eason's in Belfast but I need to tackle some of the staff back in Newry and see if it's a case of them not carrying it or simply being sold out.
Keith wanted to go get some presents for his brother so we walked on around to look into WH Smiths, HMV and Virgin Megastore. One thing I noticed was that DVD does not appear to have taken off much in the provance. I can see that I'll be doing lots of online ordering in the future 8/
Having had a look through a few HiFi/Electrical stores it seems to be some unwritten commandment that all DVD players will be silver. Can't find any that are black. Again this looks like someting I'm going to ahev to order up. *sigh*
Towards the evening we headed over to get pizza from a slightly upmarket restraunt. Nice place a little slow though. Unfortunately having been somewhat spoilt with refills being free in North Carolina, it's somewhat of an annoyance to suddenly be charged for the refills. (1.30 UKP ~2.00USD a glass)
Went on from Shaftsbury square across the westlink to the Odessey village which houses 12 cinema screens, an ice rink and a number of restraunts. Got a coffee from the Hard Rock cafe and mused over various happenings during the week. Headed on upstairs to sort out tickets for 'The Bourne Identity' which was playing about 50 minutes later, so we just strolled around the complex. Eventually stoppedand looked over a railing to the floors below where we could see some woman and her friend being refused admitance to a nightclub below making a huge scene about it for about for ages. She'd still not given up trying to get into the nightclub by the time we went to see the film. Silly woman.
Film was fairly good, though possibly they had cranked the sound up a little too high.
Left the complex at 23:55 and drove on home. A good day out.

YEMEN: Crisis deepens as humanitarians stand ready to deliver
Conditions in Yemen are deteriorating; nearly half of Yemenis are food insecure and almost 1 million children suffer from acute malnutrition. This was the message of the Yemen Humanitarian Country Team to Wednesday's meeting of the Friends of Yemen in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
"If we do not act today, the costs tomorrow will be much higher. For every month we wait, the crisis gets bigger," the Humanitarian Coordinator in Yemen, Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed, told the meeting.
"The crisis has compounded many of the country's existing problems. New assessments this year document that conditions continue to deteriorate. Increasing food insecurity is one challenge, rapidly increasing malnutrition is another, a breakdown in health, water and sanitation services is a third, new flows of internally displaced people is a fourth.
"These developments force us to revise the 2012 Humanitarian Response Plan, and I have to flag that the cost of saving more lives will increase," he said.
Mr. Ould Cheikh Ahmed warned that gaps in the humanitarian response would undermine Yemen's prospects for peace and long-term development. He said the country faced substantial humanitarian needs for the next three to five years.
He added that national and international humanitarian agencies and the Government of Yemen were continuing to reach people in need. He explained that they were scaling up their work to include people who had not been displaced and who were not affected by the conflict, but were in acute humanitarian need.
"I appeal to all of you not to let Yemen become another catastrophe," he said.
The Friends of Yemen meeting was co-hosted by Saudi Arabia, the UK and Yemen. It gathered some 30 countries and international organizations to consider how they can support Yemen's reform agenda and political transition.

(leuprolide acetate) Injection
Leuprolide acetate is a synthetic nonapeptide analog of naturally occurring gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH or LH-RH). The analog possesses greater potency than the natural hormone. The chemical name is 5-oxo-L-prolyl-L-histidyl-L-tryptophyl-L-seryl-L-tyrosyl-Dleucyl-L-leucyl-L-arginyl-N-ethyl-L-prolinamide acetate (salt) with the following structural formula:
LUPRON INJECTION is a sterile, aqueous solution intended for subcutaneous injection.

The much lower price than the "official" wifi shield (and actually being in stock) makes it attractive, but honestly, I'll probably never buy one because of its lack of top headers. Using that shield means you can't use any other shield, which is a deal breaker for a lot of projects.
@CerinThe pictures above are of an older version of this hardware. Our most recent version, the only version we currently sell, now features headers.

Scud shrimp
This is my shrimp pattern. It gets its name from the material that I use for the shell. Some people use plastic baggies, but I use scud back, a pliable material made for scud flies.
Materials, in order that they're placed on the hook:
Hook: size 4
Thread: color to match pattern, here 6/0 rust
Eyes: bead chain
Antennae: rainbow krystal flash and tan marabou
Ribbing: fine copper wire
Body: ice chenille
Shellback: scud back, orange
The only tricky part is attaching the scud back. It's tied in at the eye and pulled down to the bend over the eyes, and then secured in place with the copper wire. Wrapping the wire is the last thing that's done, securing it at the eye of the hook with the thread that's there waiting for it.
Another color combo that works well with this is olive. And when the shrimp are high in the water column or just in the surface film, the bead eyes can be replace with mono eyes like those used for damsel nymphs and the wire can be replace with 3/0 thread of the appropriate color. I've taken many weakfish with this fly, but I've put it here in the bonefish/tarpon archive because I'm told that it seems to be made for bones. Someday I hope to test it out on a few. :)

"I just really enjoy watching them hunt," said Andy Spencer of Conifer, the new education coordinator for Evergreen's Hiwan Homestead Museum.
A division of McGraw-Hill Cos. has agreed to acquire Bentek Energy LLC, a privately held company based in Evergreen. Terms of the deal were not disclosed in the Dec. 16 announcement.
The deal is expected to close in 2011. Bentek will continue to operate under the current name with the same management.
Bentek is known for providing information services in the field of natural gas markets. It employs about 100 people in offices on Castle Court off Evergreen Parkway.

Interim acting fire chief Brian Zoril, a longtime volunteer firefighter, has been named chief of Foothills Fire & Rescue, it was announced Dec. 29. He becomes the second paid fire chief hired in the last 12 months and the second in the organization's history.
The headquarters station is at Interstate 70 and Evergreen Parkway, where the department is building a new garage.
Because she grew up in the shadow of her father, John Evans, the second territorial governor of Colorado from 1862 to 1865, Anne Evans' life story was largely ignored until Evergreen author Barbara Sternberg decided to make it the subject of her just-published book.
Living in the mountains means it's possible to bag an elk in your own backyard — provided it's hunting season and one has the proper license.
Disturbing though it may be to many neighbors in the idyllic bedroom communities of Evergreen, Genesee and Indian Hills, shooting elk on private property in unincorporated Jefferson County is legal, as long as the ammunition remains in the shooter's yard.
Joel Michael Herrin was sentenced Monday to 30 years in prison for kidnapping a woman from her Evergreen home on Dec. 29, 2009, forcing her to into his SUV and confining her in his apartment in Kittredge for nearly 12 hours.
Herrin, 41, had been working as a housecleaner in the woman's home for four years.
Herrin previously pleaded guilty to first-degree kidnapping and attempted sexual assault Sept. 17. The sentencing originally was scheduled for Dec. 3 and was continued. Herrin originally could have faced a sentence of life in prison.
A fire was reported Saturday afternoon at Lookout Mountain Community Church off I-70.
Dispatchers about 1:30 p.m. reported the call, and said the building's sprinkler system was activated.
Foothills Fire & Rescue and Evergreen Evergreen Fire/Rescue were responding to the blaze.
The church is on Commons Drive just off I-70 at the Lookout Mountain exit.

Graduate School launches revamped Web site
Posted June 14, 2004; 09:36 a.m.
Princeton's Graduate School has launched a completely redesigned Web site .
The site is intended to reach current and prospective graduate students, staff, faculty and alumni with news of activities, academic opportunities, accessible resources and essential policies and processes.
"We seek to communicate more consistently and effectively with all interested parties," said William Russel, dean of the Graduate School, "while highlighting the many outstanding features of graduate education and the Graduate School at Princeton."
The Graduate School site has an easy-to-use navigation system that provides rapid access to a large body of information, according to Sandra Mawhinney, associate dean for business and administration. With an abundance of visual imagery, the site reflects the richness of the Graduate School experience at Princeton, she said.
The site's design and implementation was coordinated by the Office of Communications with assistance from the Office of Information Technology. Eric Miller and Associates produced the site's original design, which was refined and built by Extrafin Creative Consultancy.

The one tool they won't be using is video footage.
"Unfortunately, statute doesn't allow us to use cameras for enforcement," said Lt. J. Paul Vance, spokesman for the state police.
The state highway system is equipped with more than 300 cameras -- a fiber-optic network of teardrop-shaped eyes that can turn 360 degrees, zoom out and zoom in (close enough to read a license plate in some cases) -- but the Connecticut Department of Transportation cameras do not record, said DOT spokesman Kevin Nursick.
"We do get a lot of (Freedom of Information) requests," Nursick said, "folks asking for the 'quote -unquote' recordings. But there aren't any recordings."
Nursick said there would be dozens of obstacles to having the cameras record and making the footage available to law enforcement, not the least of which is a statute that disallows such use.
"Certainly there are members of the public who would have a problem with Big Brother looking down on us," Nursick said.
At the DOT operations center in Newington, Rick DeMatties, highway operations crew leader, maneuvered a joystick on his keyboard Thursday to turn and zoom in on a stranded motorist.
In front of him, 20 small TV monitors surrounded a large screen -- covering the length and height of a wall. One monitor displayed the news, while the others showed cars and trucks on interstates 91 and 84.
It was about 2 p.m., and, so far, the roads looked clear.
From his chair, DeMatties has direct access to about 130 cameras, a radar system that indicates congested traffic areas using a color-coded speed tracking system, weather conditions and other highway management tools.
DeMatties said, for the most part, the DOT is clued in to major incidents from their eyes and ears on the ground, including state and local police and the DOT crews that roam the highways. Alerted by their reports, said DeMatties, he can bring up the camera assigned to that area, if there is one, and conduct "incident management."
Switching the large screen to view Exit 28 on I-91 -- the entrance to the Berlin Turnpike -- he explained that if an accident were to occur in that area, he could turn on highway message signs to detour motorists onto the turnpike, all from his office chair.
"We're part of what we call an incident management team," he said. "...We're not just called in for sand anymore."
The operations center can dispatch a team to handle anything from a dead raccoon to a major traffic accident to a tree down on the roadway, he said. But just two operators are watching the screens at any given time, and it is impossible, he said, to watch all the cameras at once.
In Bridgeport, the state's other operations center controls about 200 cameras that monitor I-95 and I-395, including 23 cameras viewing I-95 between Old Saybrook and Stonington and I-395 through Montville and Norwich.
Operators of each center can view what the other is seeing on their big screens, said Nursick.
At Troop G in Bridgeport, state troopers are able to view the cameras, said Lt. Louis J. Fusaro Jr., commanding officer at Troop E in Montville. Fusaro said he has spoken to the DOT about hooking Troop E into the cameras as well.
State troopers cannot control the cameras; they can only view what the DOT is seeing.
Fusaro said Troop G does not record the footage and neither would Troop E.
"We can certainly do our investigations without it. Would it be a useful tool? It might be," he said.
Fusaro said the cameras are not a part of an investigation into the Nov. 2 I-95 crash. To his knowledge, no one was watching a camera near the exit where the crash occurred at the time of the incident.
"It's going to be a long investigation. I know people want to see it. But it's going to take a long time. It's going to take months," he said.
Nursick said the department's position on using the cameras for law enforcement is "neutral."
Some of the cameras, because of their placement, cannot zoom in to the license plate level, he said. And at any given time, he said, there is no telling where a camera will be pointed, meaning that even if a camera could have recorded the Nov. 2 crash, it might have been facing the wrong direction at the key moment.
The system, which started with just two cameras in 1995, is still dozens of cameras away from fully covering every stretch of the highway system, said Nursick, and the cameras cannot see in the dark.
Recorded footage would also require extra time and money for DOT.
The department would have to save and store the footage and answer what Nursick said would be a "flood" of FOI requests from attorneys and others to view the footage.
The employees at DOT's two operations centers are not trained in law enforcement and if law enforcement personnel were allowed to operate the cameras, the two agencies could have conflicting interests.
"We would want to make sure that from an incident management perspective we remain as effective as possible," he said.
Additionally, the federal government, which paid for the cameras, allotted the funds to be used for incident management only, meaning if the cameras were going to be used for law enforcement purposes, the agreement would need to be renegotiated, Nursick said.
"In Connecticut, you couldn't just take a snapshot of a driver's license plate and mail them a ticket. The statute would need to be changed to do that," he said.

All Veterans Memorial dedicated
The Pelican Woods Cemetery All Veterans Memorial was dedicated Saturday morning, June 15, in Breezy Point.
Mayor JoAnn Weaver thanked the cemetery commission and city staff, and read a poem titled "Honor Our Military."
Local veteran Lucas Schmitz spoke at the dedication of his personal experiences in the Iraq War, where he was battle wounded.
The Pequot Lakes American Legion Color Guard was in attendance, along with a crowd of around 40 people.
Jeff Kreitz, the artist who created the sculpture, said after the meeting that the contemporary sculpture is meant to show the mental, physical and emotional wounds left by war.
Made of copper, bronze and stainless steel, the sculpture includes a purple heart, a medal that Kreitz said is given to all branches of the armed services. A streak of copper goes from the purple heart to the base of the sculpture, and Kreitz pointed out that the concrete slab is the shape of a teardrop.
Kreitz said the sculpture is unisex and does not focus on any one branch of service.
"On a limited budget, you can't represent all theaters of war. This is an all-in-one, semi-abstract, contemporary sculpture," Kreitz said. "It's an honor to do the sculpture for veterans and the city."

Noted guitarists to perform free concert, April 15
Posted April 11, 2005; 12:31 p.m.
Grammy Award-winning jazz guitarist Bill Frisell and accompanying guitarist Greg Liesz will perform a free concert at 8 p.m. Friday, April 15, in the University Chapel.
Doors will open at 7:30 p.m. for the event, which is free for students, faculty and staff. Non-University patrons are asked to consider a $10 donation at the door to benefit music education in the state of New Jersey. No tickets are required.
Frisell is best known for leading a new fusion movement -- the blending of jazz with country and folk. He won a Grammy Award this year for "best contemporary jazz album" for "Unspeakable."
Liesz is well known for his mastery of a variety of guitars and stringed instruments. In addition to Frisell, he has performed with artists including Joni Mitchell, Sheryl Crow and John Hiatt. The performance at Princeton is expected to include jazz, rock, blues, folk, improvisation and fusion.
The concert is sponsored by Modern Improvisation Music Appreciation -- a student group -- and the Undergraduate Student Government, the Office of the Vice President for Campus Life, the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate Students, the admissions office, the Venture Fund, the Office of Religious Life and the music department.

Daisies—In Welcome to the Daisy Flower Garden, Daisies learn about the Girl Scout Promise and Law while planting a mini-garden, composting, or even talking to a beekeeper. Then they do a project using their new skills to help others or to improve their community.
It's Your World—Change It!
The It's Your World—Change It! Leadership Journey encourages girls at every age to make the world a better place, have fun, learn more—and find new friends along the way!
Whether it's planting a garden, painting a mural, or launching a letter-writing campaign, Girl Scouts at every level experience unique leadership and advocacy challenges and discover what it means to be a leader who makes a difference in the world.
Learning and Fun for Everyone
Here are a few of the activities that make the It's Your World—Change It! Journey so rewarding:
Brownies—Girls learn how to take care of themselves, their families, their Girl Scout sisters, and their community in the Brownie Quest Journey. Together they read to younger kids, promote healthy eating, or choose a project that improves the lives of their neighbors.
Juniors—As they explore their own talents and learn about women who have made the world better, Juniors following the Agent of Change Journey also discover the benefits of teamwork—whether it's talking about energy use, helping a local food bank, or using their unique talents in other ways.
Cadettes—Developing healthy relationships, navigating cliques, and moving beyond stereotypes are major themes in aMAZE! The Twists and Turns of Getting Along. Cadettes team up on projects with younger girls, senior citizens, or classmates to share their new friendship-building skills.
Seniors—In GIRLtopia girls develop their own vision of an ideal world and acquire the skills to make it a reality. By exploring women in history, interviewing inspiring mentors, or creating a short film, Seniors learn real-life lessons while building a brighter future.
Ambassadors—Communication takes the stage in Your Voice, Your World: The Power of Advocacy. Girls spot problems, find solutions, and take action. Whether it's making presentations, using social media, or lobbying government, Ambassadors raise their collective voices to make positive change.
Journey Awards
In a Girl Scout Journey, awards link experiences, discussions, and ideas that girls explore together. As Girl Scouts progress from Daisy to Ambassador, their awards symbolize new and higher levels of achievement—and ultimately a deeper understanding of what it means to be a leader.
All the steps girls take toward earning awards are built into each Journey. Guidebooks for parents and adult volunteers also suggest meaningful ways to help girls celebrate earning awards and reflect on their accomplishments.
Companion Guides for Adults
Adult guides for each level provide help for coaching girls along the way, and include a Journey overview, sample sessions, ideas on choosing and conducting activities, details on awards and badges, links to multimedia, online resources, and more. See samples.
Delivering Fun with Purpose
Everything girls do on Leadership Journeys is aimed at giving them the benefits of the Girl Scout Three Keys to Leadership: Discover, Connect, Take Action.
How It Works:
A girl Discovers her special skills and talents, finds the
confidence to set challenging goals for herself, and strives to live
by her values.
She Connects with others, learns how to team up, solve
conflicts, and have healthy relationships.
Then, she Takes Action to make the world a better place,
learning about her community and the world in the process.
To bring the Girl Scout Leadership Experience to life, activities are often led by girls themselves, feature cooperative learning, and highlight learning by doing. Each Journey is carefully designed to teach girls to come up with their own ideas, build teams, realize their full potential, and experience the joy of making a positive impact.
Get started on your Journey!

There are two ways landlords make money through property letting - capital growth and rental income growth. Let's take a look at these in more detail.
When a property increases in value over time, it is known as 'capital growth'. Capital growth, also known as capital appreciation, has been strong in recent times, but the value of property does go up as well as down, and of course the local conditions surrounding your property have a big effect.
Rental income is what the tenant pays you - hopefully this will grow over time too. In addition to the all important income, you will also need to budget for a number of necessary costs. It's worth highlighting what these costs are so you can budget for them. This is especially important as ultimately you are responsible for these costs whether the property is occupied or not.
Premiums for buildings insurance vary by area, type and size of property but allow for between 2 and 3% of the rent. For furnished property allow between another 1 and 4% of the rent depending on the level of furnishing.
Allow for 10% of the rent each year to replace worn out fixtures, fittings and furnishings. Also, be prepared to re-decorate every few years.
Things break down and need to be maintained over time. You will need to allow a percentage of the rent to cover this. The type, age and condition of the property will obviously have an effect on repairs and maintenance of the property, so this should be taken in to consideration when choosing your property to purchase.
If the property is leasehold you'll have to pay these charges.
Don't assume the property will always be occupied with a rent paying tenant. Budget for a month each year when the property is empty - 'void periods' in landlord jargon.
Fees vary but a good Rightmove agent could get you a higher rent than if you find a tenant privately - remember that they have more market expertise and a greater selection of tenants for you to choose from which will more than make up for their charges.
Of course, your biggest cost is likely to be your mortgage.
Many buy-to-let mortgage lenders will only lend up to 80% of the property value, so you'll need to put in some money yourself - which of course has a cost too!
Once you have deducted all these costs from the rent, you end up with your net expected rental income.
If you divide this into the value of the property, including all the costs associated with buying it, you have the 'true' or 'net rental yield'.
So, if net rental income is £10,000 and the property cost £200,000, the net rental yield is simply £10,000 divided by £200,000 which equals 0.05 or 5%.
Once you do the maths, you may find that the net rental yield figure is less than the cost of your mortgage, leaving you with a shortfall. However, if you have bought well, you should expect the rental income to creep up over time - plus you should see some capital growth too.
In the next sections, we'll look at how to buy a property that will hopefully do both.

Each Monday through Saturday in November, a member of the Welcoming Committee will post the name of one or two product designers in this Product Picks game thread. You will then head to the Scrap Girls Boutique and navigate to that particular designer's product pages. Choose any of their products (your favorite product, one you like, or one you wish you owned), then come back to thread and share:
- The product name
- The boutique link
- A brief explanation of why you chose that product such as color palette, versatility of the product, fills a special "niche", was a product you requested, etc.
My favorite Angie product is the CatNip Collection Mini - http://store.scrapgi...ollection-Mini. I like it because she designed the product around my cat, Noelle (featured in the product sample layout!)
Some Rules:
- Members are allowed to post ONE product PER designer. There are 41 designers listed in the boutique, so at the end of the month, you will have a maximum of 41 product posts.
- Product pick posts must be made on the same day they are announced in the thread. Once the next days' designer(s) have been posted, please do not go back to previous designers.
- At the end of the month, members who haves posted links to 41 products (one for each designer) will be entered in a drawing for one of three $10 GCs.
- Members who have posted links to 16-40 products will be entered in a drawing for one of two $5 GCs.
- Members who have posted links to 10-15 products will be entered in a drawing for one of two $3 GCs.
