The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission plans to vote today on a plan that will define how far its regulations reach into a segment of the $710 trillion global swaps market.
Transactions executed by foreign divisions of banks including JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. will be subject to U.S. rules if the affiliate's trades are legally guaranteed by the parent company, the SEC said in a statement. The new rule comes as Wall Street takes steps to restructure trades overseas to avoid Dodd-Frank Act regulations intended to increase competition and price transparency.
U.S. regulators have faced a backlash from European and Asian authorities for overreaching in their desire to apply Dodd-Frank rules overseas. Meanwhile, Wall Street lobbying organizations have sued the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, which is the primary U.S. regulator of derivatives, to limit the international scope of the agency's power.
"The SEC has no excuse not to strongly regulate Wall Street's overseas derivatives gambling," Dennis M. Kelleher, president of Better Markets, a Washington-based nonprofit that advocates stricter bank regulation, said in an e-mail.
Cross-border application of U.S. derivatives rules is one of the most contentious features of Dodd-Frank, the regulatory expansion enacted after the 2008 credit crisis. The law gave the SEC authority over trading in equity and some credit-default swaps, about 5 percent of U.S. swaps, while the CFTC oversees the rest: swaps on interest rates, currencies, and credit indexes.
Split market
David Felsenthal, a New York-based partner at the Clifford Chance law firm, said the split oversight could cause problems for credit-default swaps.
"It will be very difficult if there is any inconsistency to try to mesh the two markets together," Felsenthal said in a phone interview.
The SEC last year proposed to exempt U.S. banks' overseas affiliates from registration when they deal predominantly with foreign clients. The agency changed that approach in the final rule, saying overseas trades guaranteed by the U.S. parent will be regulated when the guarantee is "a legally enforceable right."
Critics of the SEC's approach faulted the agency last year for taking a different approach than the CFTC, which oversees about 95 percent of the U.S. swaps market. Others said the SEC's strategy would allow banks to escape regulation by moving more swaps deals offshore, which would raise the risk that an affiliate's collapse could harm the U.S. parent company.

Check out the travels of Leslie Hope of ABC's paranormal hit, "The River," and you get the impression that very little scares the Canadian actress.
Long before "The River" came along, when she was playing Teri Bauer on "24," Hope trekked deep into the Amazon River basin to live for a week with the Huaorani Indians. She's traveled to Iceland, Peru, the Faroe Islands, Turkey, China and Laos. A 2003 trip took her to Cambodia, which inspired her to make the award-winning documentary short about street kids called "What I See When I Close My Eyes."
Apparently, she's not easily spooked. At least not until "The River," which airs at 8 p.m. Tuesdays on ABC.
The Halifax, Nova Scotia-born actress plays Tess Cole, the wife and on-camera partner of famous TV adventurer Emmet Cole (Bruce Greenwood), who has gone missing along the Amazon River. Tess, her son Lincoln (Joe Anderson) and others are searching for Emmet while a documentary crew films the expedition, which so far has unleashed a blood-thirsty spirit, disturbed the ghost of a dead child and incurred the wrath of Los Ciegos, the guardians of the forest.
The story is fictional (for the most part), but that didn't make the experience of filming it in Hawaii any less freaky, said Hope.
"The truth is some situations we were in on the show were scary," she told me during a phone interview from Calgary, where she was prepping to direct a TV movie. "It's not my natural inclination to think that things are haunted. But some of the places we were at, you just would feel that active kind of spirit life. ... With the combination of material we were doing and the places we were, I would say half the time we really were terrified."
Hope expects that fans, too, will feel more terror as the season progresses because a lot of what we learn happened to Emmet—and "a whole lot is revealed"—is based on real legends in the Amazon.
"There's a core of truth to these things that are happening, and particularly when you put Bruce's character with other characters," she said. "That stuff gets really freaky."
The supernatural legends, and the possibly haunted locations, weren't the only challenges Hope faced while filming the series. But her biggest fears were grounded more in reality.
"I'm actually terrified of the water," she said, laughing, no doubt because most of the series is filmed on a boat or in a jungle near the water. "I realized I have a real phobia about the water, and about bugs. So that was a challenge."
Hope talked about other challenges, and joys, of filming "The River, as well as projects she has directed. Plus, find out why she says, "I'm a good time once you get to know me."

One thing I learned in researching was you have been to the Amazon before.
That is correct; it's not a lie, that's very true. I was in the Amazon—the reason I remember it so vividly was because I literally flew out of the jungle and the next day I was at the TCAs for "24" I think. So I was literally squatting in the dirt to have a pee 24 hours before I was eating chocolate chip cookies off of silver plates at Pasadena restaurants with, no offense, a bunch of critics, you know what I mean? It was a completely different experience.
But yes, I was there. I had traveled pretty extensively and that was a place I was really interested in seeing for myself because of what I'd read about the oil companies and what they were doing to the land down there, and I just wanted to see. I tend to be lefty liberal anyway and I jump on those bandwagons pretty quickly. But I always like to see for myself first what's really going on and guess what, it's true. The land is being completely devastated by oil companies and the people there are being devastated.
I flew into a small town and then took basically a truck ride for about six or seven hours to the edge of the river, and then nine hours by motorized canoe, and then an additional canoe ride in even deeper. We were pretty deep. We were in places where the people that we were meeting, some of them—they were my age—remember the first time they'd seen anybody from the outside come in.
So it's a pretty new idea that people like me were tromping around in there. And I lived there with the Huaorani Tribe for about a week. I can't say I'm an expert on the Amazon, but I did have a little experience of living with those people in that area. I went on a monkey hunt and thank God had to leave the next day, so I didn't have to, as a guest of honor, eat boiled monkey. But I did help carry it back and I helped make the—it's sort of like a cheap chow—fermented yucca root for this party they were having the next day. I pounded all the yucca root and just basically lived with them as they would for the week.
That's fascinating.
An awesome trip actually. It literally quite changed my life and my perspective on things.
Did that experience help you decide to take this job?
Well, I think that experience helped make me a good choice for this job, do you know what I mean? That it was a good match of ideas. I've also made a documentary on Cambodia. I went there about five or six years ago. I was there as a tourist and then went back to make this documentary about the street-living kids there. So the notion of making a documentary or traveling sort of on a lower scale, not as a high-end traveler, and to be running a small crew, and that all made sense to me, the practicality of that made sense to me.
And then the emotional storyline of being crazy in love with your husband and doing anything to find him, that made sense to me. And I have, in real life, a son who is almost 19, and I have a son in the show. And my son and I get along great, but I understood what it would be to be at odds. I know what it is to not agree with your son, so all these sort of emotional elements made sense to me.
There's a lot of tension between Tess and Lincoln, like in the first episode he blames Tess for breaking up the family and making the dad go off on his own or whatever.
Yes. And more of that is revealed. I think one of the reasons that I think the show works and that is done is our first little foray into this. And one of the things that really also kills me about this show is, besides the scare-the-crap-out-of-you stuff that happens every week, which is amazing, the emotional arcs of these characters stay fulfilled and keep turning and twisting. And Bruce Greenwood actually said something I thought was so right, that the further we get into the Amazon, the more mysterious the characters become, and more and more secrets get revealed between them.
And you realize that everybody's got something on everybody else in that cast of characters, and everybody is holding a secret, at least one on the people you wouldn't expect. So it doesn't stay ordinary, those relationships; they also I think sort of need taking change as we continue on the show.
How challenging was filming on the boat?
The reality of a lot of people in a small space [was challenging]; you can't go anywhere. We shot the pilot in Puerto Rico and the series itself in Hawaii. Hawaii and Puerto Rico are both extraordinarily beautiful places with amazing landscape. But the reality of shooting on a boat there is it's hot, it's humid, there are bugs, there's nowhere to go, you're kind of trapped. So luckily, for us anyway, we had a great, great crew, but for the actors, we were lucky that we all got along so well because I think somebody would have ended up murdered.
Was the documentary style filming, with all the cameras around you, a challenge at all, or did you find that to make things much easier?
To me, to have all the cameras around as an actor, was really liberating because first off, you never had to stop the flow of things to have glamour lighting or sort of special beauty stuff. You didn't have to worry about that, which I love, that we didn't have to deal with that. And I also love that you had to be on all the time, sort of like doing a play; that just because you weren't speaking or you weren't in a formal part of the scene didn't mean you weren't being photographed. There were cameras everywhere, 17 cameras at any time that could be going. So I liked that, that you had to stay always on. I thought it was great for the performances. It kept everybody kind of jacked up and it kept me connected to the material.
I also loved the fact that—it's evident in the pilot but more evident as the show goes on—that everyone of us picks up the camera at some point. So the footage that you're seeing in the show sometime is actually what the actors have shot. And it's a different experience as an actor when you're playing to a camera that's being held by another actor as opposed to playing to a camera held by a crew member. You just relate in a different way when the person behind the camera is actually somebody that's in the scene with you. So I found that to be really great and fun and, like I said, liberating. That stays throughout the show, and I was really happy to be able to work like that.
Would the actors do more improv and go off script because of the odd filming style?
No, we were very tight to the script. But I think what starts to happen is your physical behavior becomes a little more free than it might normally be under a so-called "regular show." It just allows you the freedom of movement that you don't typically have. But no, we didn't go off script, it was just more about geography of the actual place we were shooting.
Does it make shooting go faster?
That's an interesting question. You'd think, right? I think it probably makes the shooting smoother but the editing process longer, because there's so much footage to go through. We moved at a good clip but there are still the practical concerns of putting a camera in an actor's hand and sort of working stuff out. You still kind of have of rehearse the beat, and generally what's going to happen emotionally in the scene.
The paranormal stuff, are you into that kind of story?
I never saw a frame of "Paranormal Activity." Apparently those films do pretty well, huh? It's not particularly my genre; I don't know that much about it. But obviously, they're hugely successful. And now that I've seen our show, I get why. I mean there's something immediate, and in my opinion more real, when the camera is in the hands of the people that you're following. And that's, I think, used very effectively in our show.
Well, it's scary.
Yeah, it's scary, right? One of my bosses—I think it was Michael Green—said that perhaps the difference between a successful movie like that and a successful series is you just get a longer time to invest in the characters. So that's a big part of what they're trying to do with "The River," is use all these elements to make the show scary. But what really makes it scary, we hope, is that you're scared for those people. You know enough about them to know that it matters if something happens to them as opposed to perhaps in more traditional horror movies where you can peg from the get-go who's going to get killed. You know who the types are. It's the girl who goes upstairs, right, and she's usually a cheerleader? Don't do it.
So we're trying not to fall into that with our show. And because it's a series, you just have time to get to know these characters better. And as I said, one of the things that I think also becomes scary is the behavior of those characters and what they know but they're not sharing.
When you guys are acting with the paranormal stuff happening, does the director have to really explain that since nothing's there obviously?
I think, for me anyway, the challenge of doing that stuff when—you're right, nothing's there—is you just have to take a leap of faith that ultimately something will be there, which is to say sound or music, or the story's going to thread in such a way so you don't feel like such a complete jerk when you're screaming your head off for nothing. It seems to me the only way to do this stuff is to go big or go home. You can't scream quietly, right? You can't be terrified for your life in a sort of appropriate way. Your nose runs, you scream, you sweat, your hair looks shitty, you make weird faces, all this stuff happens when you're terrified.
So I think we all just sort of made a pledge that we were going to go big in hopefully the best sense. So sometimes I felt a bit like I was doing an opera, but I don't think you can do it any other way. I don't think there's a pretty way to be terrified or there's a sensible way to be running for your life. You just do it.
Well, anything else you want to say about the show?
What else can I say about the show? I can tell you that I've been acting for a long time. I've been acting for 30 years and I didn't think I would be this happy in an acting job again and it's been fantastic, and that really is the truth. I'm so pleased to be working with Zack [Estrin] and Michael [Green], in particular, who are the showrunners, and that cast. ... The reality of being nine actors away from home, working with each other for the first time, there was room for everybody, and that too was great.
You're up in Calgary to shoot "Merry In-laws," right?
This is "Merry In-laws" with Shelley Long and George Wendt playing Mrs. Claus and Santa Claus. I don't know why, I just think it's hilarious, right? And my buddy, Lucas Bryant [from Syfy's "Haven"], is playing the son of Mr. and Mrs. Claus. We still don't have our girl yet, so I'm hoping that's going to be settled today or tomorrow.
Sounds like a lot of work but a lot of excitement. Do you enjoy the directing side a lot?
I'm very, very happy to be directing, which to say it's a job that suits my personality. I tend to be somebody who's interested in all aspects of production. If I'm acting, from what kind of car my character drives to what kind of shoelaces I have. And as a director I can engage in big-picture thinking, which you don't always get to do as an actor.
Do you prefer directing nowadays?
I can't say I prefer it per se, because frankly, when you get a job like "The River," it's a big-thinking kind of job. And I'm playing a filmmaker. In real life my bosses on that show are incredibly collaborative and open, and allow me to sort of engage all parts of my brain in playing that character. When it's like that I love it. When they tell me to shut up and get in the corner, I don't love it so much. They don't tell me, but on other jobs essentially you get told that, and that doesn't work as well for me.
Tell me about this short film you made, "GayKeith." I watched last night and I found it a little sad but funny.
That's good, that's what you're supposed to think. That's very good. What can I tell you about "GayKeith"?
How did you get involved with it?
Two things had happened. I had directed a movie where I was dealing with a certain level of oversight, because when you're doing TV movies you have a lot of people to answer to. And I came off of that movie and decided I'm just going to do whatever the hell I want. If I can think it up then I'm going to try and shoot it. And I had this monologue that my friend, Scott [Edgecombe], who plays Scott in the movie, had written. That was true and I just thought it was so funny. I mean the basic storyline is true; the dancing isn't true, but the basic storyline is true.
And I just thought it was so hilarious, this notion of you went to these lengths, so to speak, to find out what you should have known, right? Like it's not that you just went on a date or something. I mean you went downtown, in the middle of it, and went, "Oh, I don't think so." I thought that was funny ...
I was also really interested to see how you could make a movie work on the Internet, and how to build a campaign for that. So I tried that too, about eight or nine of these little 30-second sort of seemingly unrelated spots for the movie. And I was fortunate enough to hire whoever I wanted; I could cherry-pick my favorite people in terms of crew. And I was also interested in working with animation.
It's done really well, I have to say. It was released right before Christmas. It went all over the place on the Festival Circuit, which I also think is hilarious. It went to New York at CineKink, which is the kinky films store. And it was picked up by TriCon, which is a Canadian distribution company, which I'm very pleased about. "GayKeith" has distribution!
I also can tell you that there are certain people I've shown it to, my attorney included who I really like and respect tremendously, and she was offended by it. And she goes, "Leslie, I don't know what to say." She was trying to be nice. She goes, "I have so much respect for you and I really want to get behind you as a director and I just can't send this movie out."
It's one of the few things I've done where I was able to say I really don't care if you like it. I love it so much I still laugh when I watch it by myself. It doesn't matter to me in the best sense what anybody has to say about it. I mean I hope they like it, I hope they're not offended, but I don't actually care.
I thought it was great because as wacky as it gets, there are so many little pieces of truth in it. I've been alone at Christmas. And people often do crazy things that they don't even know why they're doing it, but they can't stop.
Yes, yes. And I don't know about you, like you live in Chicago, but North Hollywood and L.A., no offense to North Hollywood I'm saying because I'm supposed to, but something about that area of Los Angeles where those kinds of things happen, where people meet on Christmas and have these sort of anonymous exchanges and then just go their separate ways again.
I hope that I get to do the bigger version of that kind of story, which is to say a mash-up of the bizarre and the perfectly poignant, and the absurd and the funny and the outrageous. That really appeals to my sensibility.
It's funny. When your publicist told me that you were inappropriate all the time, I thought it was interesting because I would never guess that from your roles.
Yeah. That's the rap. That's not an uncommon perception of me, yeah. And I don't know why I get those parts. I think because I'm bossy maybe. But yeah, I'm a good time once you get to know me.

While hordes of shoppers descend on downtown, SLC to finally see the years-in-the-making City Creek Center in person, The Gym at City Creek will open its doors to urbanites looking for a workout.
Amenities abound in this centrally-located gym: on-site trainers, classes, basketball and racquetball courts, and—what may be the hallmark of The Gym—an indoor swimming pool built to Junior Olympics specifications.
Looks like downtown Salt Lake can add one more thing to the list of things that it has going for it.
Just as City Creek Center puts on all the stops for opening day, The Gym at City Creek will host an open house on March 22 and 23, as well as a grand opening bash on March 26. To get to The Gym, you've got options—TRAX stops right in the heart of City Creek (51 S. Main Street, Salt Lake City), and underground parking abounds. Once inside the development, you can find The Gym right above Cheesecake Factory.

Question by darkcoder: Question about aspergers?
I pretty much know all the symptoms of aspergers, but I was wondering if all of them have trouble with speech as I was curious if I have the condition and don't display this symptom. By trouble with speech I mean being repetitive and sort of overemphasizing their words.
Best answer:
Answer by Jerry
Some do, but not all. Quiz: http://www.rdos.net/eng/ See http://myweb.usf.edu/~begeiger/as-symptoms.html & http://www.aspergers.com & http://www.udel.edu/bkirby/asperger/support.html & http://www.aspergerssociety.org/index20cause.htm?gclid=CPCNguvVtJ0CFZMwpAodVX4mkQ & http://www.tonyattwood.com.au/links.html There are courses, where Aspies are taught the interpretation of social cues, and behaviour appropriate to certain circumstances. Google: "asperger's syndrome; training courses (your location)" There are also books on social skills; "People Skills," written by Robert Bolton, Ph.D. The book help will help with communication in all areas. It helps when you have anxiety in "people" situations. Others are: Asperger's From the Inside Out: A Supportive and Practical Guide for Anyone with Asperger's Syndrome by Michael John Carley and Ed.D., Peter F. Gerhardt, & The Complete Guide to Asperger's Syndrome by Tony Attwood, & The OASIS Guide to Asperger Syndrome: Completely Revised and Updated: Advice, Support, Insight, and Inspiration by Patricia Romanowski.
Ask at your bookstore, or go to www.amazon.com If you have difficulty looking people in the eye, try focusing on the bridge of their nose, for 2 – 3 seconds only (or you may be thought to be staring, or, at the very least, rude) then look away for 5 – 10 seconds, then repeat. Most people are suggestible, to some degree, so you could either seek professional hypnotherapy, or, quicker, cheaper, and more conveniently: hypnosisdownloads.com has ones on: making eye contact & conversation starter, and: overcome shyness and social anxiety & meeting people, etc. Because of their borderline obsessive interests, and lack of social skills, many Aspies stay indoors a great deal, and don't get sufficient daily exposure to sunlight to produce adequate levels of vitamin D3.
A deficiency in this very important vitamin can lead to depression, as can the social exclusion, and sometimes even bullying (see http://your-mental-health.weebly.com/1.html and page B) that they experience. Take at least 4 Omega 3 fish oil supplements, daily: (certified free of mercury) it is best if consumed with an antioxidant, such as an orange, or its FRESHLY SQUEEZED juice. If vitamin E is added, it should be certified as being 100% from natural sources, or it may be synthetic: avoid it! In the winter months, if not getting sufficient daily exposure to strong light, see http://www.mercola.com SEARCHBAR: enter: "vitamin D3″.
Go to a doctor and ask for a 25(OH)D, also called 25-hydroxyvitamin D, blood test. When you get the results, don't follow the typical "normal" reference range, as these are too low. The OPTIMAL value that you're looking for is 45-52 ng/ml (115-128 nmol/l)". The company which tests your levels has to be one of those using the correct form of test, and this topic is addressed via the searchbar at Mercola.com – "vitamin D3; testing".

On this Valentine's Day when many of us choose to celebrate romantic love, Christina McDonald and Niall McGahon give us their take on MS and Romance. Christina We see it all around us. On the streets, in movies and in songs, love and romance. They are everyone's desire at some point. I was diagnosed at 26 in the common age range for an MS diagnosis (20s-40s). These are also the years seen as someone's prime years- in college, looking for love, perhaps settling in with someone, building a career, getting married and all the typical life-steps. MS at times has changed how I view myself as a woman. Questions constantly loom such as "am I a burden for my partner?" or "am I still attractive when my symptoms peak?" or "have I embarrassed you in public? "Am I still fun to be around when my fatigue is bad? Sometimes I wish I could be more spontaneous and that I had more energy like I used to before MS. It can be difficult to maintain a romantic relationship when you're living with MS but with two people who compromise and understand the difficulties that may arise from MS, they can plan around what suits their needs and keep the spark alight. The thing is, I am not my disease, I am not MS. While those questions might go through my mind, I know that when my partner looks at me, she still sees the person that she fell in love with and not the condition. Although we might not go out for date nights as much as we used to, we still make a joint effort in bringing a date night to us. This includes nights in with a movie and takeaway - Netflix and chilling out. We tend to do things earlier so that I have more energy. Compromise is key for myself and my partner when it comes to MS and romance. I see myself as lucky because I had found "the one" before my diagnosis so I didn't have to worry about how to tell someone I'm dating about my condition. My partner has been with me every step of the way. Niall's Perspective I think it's fair to be said most men don't live up to the Hollywood romance and the way it's sometimes portrayed but god do we try our best! By the time of my diagnosis at the age of 34, I had met my beautiful wife and we were 4 years married. We now have a beautiful son and another on the way. Like Christina, I never had to go through the process of having to tell someone about my condition. I thank god every day for that because without my wife going through this process with me, I don't think I would be as strong as I am now. One of the definitions I found for Romance was: "feeling of mystery, excitement, and remoteness from everyday life" Quite apt for both MS and romance with a loved one. The illness fills your head full of mystery about the future and sometimes pulls you back and isolates you into a remote-ness from your everyday life. MS gives you a kick in the nuts, excuse the pun, from an in-timacy perspective. I've found myself questioning myself on countless occasions "Jesus you're useless…", "how embarrassing…" and as time progresses this can eat at you and sometimes it's easier not to try. Thankfully I get a kick up the ass and get pulled out of whatever dark room I may have entered. All because the person who, 13 years ago filled my head full of mystery of what could be, of excitement of what was to come, took me to a remote place that was only her and I. To me romance is not necessarily about the big gestures; it may have been that a few years ago. Sometimes the smallest of things can be the most romantic. The spontaneous back and foot rub, the dinner made or simply the holding of hands. These all may seem the easiest for most. However when you have little feeling in your dominant hand these tasks become even more challenging but more enjoyable and appreciated when they are done. Christina is right, Netflix and chilling on our own sofa is a bloody good date night too! My perspective on life with MS is about team work. Like Christina, we are not MS, it doesn't define us. We have the full understanding that the love that we first found all those years ago is not going to be broken by MS, we are only going to get stronger. Ro-mance is not dead, it has just taken on a different form and that's ok because it will never disappear.

To mark the International Day of Women and Girls in Science on 11th February, this week our MS and Me blogger Ciara O'Meara highlights the women of science and innovation who have changed the world for us all. The importance of science is too great to ever be underestimated or underappreciated. Without developments and continued progress and innovation in the world of science, we would not have the knowledge and information to understand the behaviour of the world around us. My own thinking on science has evolved dramatically throughout my own life journey. From a naïve and frustrated Leaving Certificate Chemistry student, I am now an avid subscriber to scientific research based journals and a research contributor. My initial train of thought on this topic ran something like this: Marie Curie- The first person to win a Nobel Prize in two different fields for her ground breaking work on radioactivity, Leaving Certificate Chemistry- the fear of remembering the difference between organic and inorganic compounds and that dreaded periodic table Florence Nightingale- the founder of modern nursing and instigator of professional training standards and better health outcomes Fourth Year Bachelors Degree Nursing Research Proposal- literature reviews were the bane of my life and this concept of methodology and sample size was seriously impacting on my RAG week preparations Dr. Rita Levi- Montalcini- Nobel Prize Recipient for her work on neurobiology. Dr. Montalcini also carried out research in conjunction with the National MS Society on identifying proteins that help nerve cells grow and stay healthy. The pride and sense of achievement and empowerment when I handed in my own Masters Research Dissertation on 'Parent's Experiences of a Multiple Sclerosis Diagnosis in their young adult sons/daughters'. Science can no longer be considered a male-dominated area; women and girls have always had a critical role in scientific research and development. And continue to do so. The United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development focuses on the importance of science, empowerment and gender equality to achieve their identified goals. Given that less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women and in tandem with the UN's goals for sustainable development, The United Nations General Assembly declared February 11th as the International Day of Women and Girls in Science. Women are more at risk of developing Multiple Sclerosis in comparison to our male counterparts. Given this female dominance, it seems only right to give credit to some of the women and girls who have contributed to recent scientific research and development in the field of MS. Maria Howard, MD at Harvard Medical School (2018), focused her research on pregnancy and MS. Given the diagnosis of MS in women of childbearing age, her research examined annual pregnancy rates between women with and without MS and also studied medical insurance claims made in terms of complications which occurred post pregnancy. Her results were promising with an increase in women with MS becoming pregnant in comparison to a decrease in pregnancies among women without MS between 2006-2014. Medical claims relating to difficulties encountered post partum, i.e. birth complications, premature labours, were similar in statistics between women with and without MS. Her research, in tandem with other studies, strengthens the understanding among women that pregnancy does not necessarily affect the long term clinical course of MS and can be done so successfully with the support and monitoring of health care professionals, new treatments and continued research. The importance of early screening and recognition of cognitive impairments in people living with MS has been highlighted through the work of Dr Rosalind Kalb (2018). Her research has focused on the importance of establishing standard baseline assessments for cognition, appropriate treatments, increased awareness and education among healthcare professionals and stricter monitoring. This initial research by Dr Kalb on the importance of cognitive health and monitoring among people with MS has paved the way for future researchers to develop on this identified need and work on tools to address these issues Scientific Research in the field of MS is developing daily and women and girls are playing a more prominent role in their contribution to the field. There is an increase in female led research in the areas of drug therapy, complementary therapies for MS and an increase in the number of grants, funding and research scholarships awarded to females. February 11th is one day to mark the role that women and girls play in the field of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Let's encourage, empower and support girls and women every other day of the year. #WomenInScience #WomenInResearch Check out these resources for further reading on scientists mentioned in the piece: Maria Howard's Research on Pregnancy ttp://n.neurology.org/content/91/17/e1559 United Nations Homepage on International day of Women and Girls in Science http://www.un.org/en/events/women-and-girls-in-science-day/ Female Scientists that have changed the world https://www.globalcitizen.org/en/content/17-top-female-scientists-who-have-changed-the-worl/ Research on Cognitive Impairment and Recommendations for MS https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/1352458518803785

While this decision sees the factory step away from its full commitment to the series, its backing for the Italian team means the manufacturer will still be represented on the grid. However, with both the Factory and Italia teams showing well in 2012, this will mean less factory-supported BMWs on the grid, and some leading riders and mechanics looking for work.
Stephan Schaller, Head of BMW Motorrad, said: "Our decision represents a commitment by BMW Motorrad to motor sports… The Superbike World Championship will continue to be the right platform for BMW Motorrad next year to demonstrate our expertise as a manufacturer of sports motorcycles in close proximity to customers. The new structure with the focus on one racing team is lean and efficient, the concept is targeted and logical."
This represents a similar move made by Ducati when it withdrew the factory team and supported private teams in WSB in order to concentrate its efforts on the struggling MotoGP effort. However, it begs the question, what will Ducati do in 2013 with an uncompetitive MotoGP bike but a very competitive superbike, especially now Audi is the new owner and would like nothing better than to beat BMW…
BMW Motorrad Motorsport Director Bernhard Gobmeier said: "This is a strategic corporate decision by BMW Motorrad. This step means that BMW Motorrad will continue to participate in motor sports at a professional level."
With BMW stepping back from its full commitment to the series, will we see its blue and white roundel in MotoGP in a few years? Has this moved allowed them to concentrate on other programs, or is it a move to save money to spend on its new DTM commitment, for example?
Many questions are left unanswered and we'll try to find some answers. However, one thing looks certain, that Marco Melandri will transfer to the Italian team, but British rider Leon Haslam appears to be looking for a new seat. However, there are online rumors that Melandri will be joined by American Ben Spies, which seems far-fetched at this time but we'll watch with interest. There might be some other MotoGP riders looking for seats at the end of the year as well, so let's see how big the salary budget is for the Italian team.

Public Resources Code Section 25402.1(h)2 and Section 10-106 of the Building Energy Efficiency Standards establish a process which allows local adoption of energy standards that are more energy efficient than the statewide Standards. This process allows local governments to adopt and enforce energy standards before the statewide Standards effective date, require additional energy conservation measures, and/or set stricter energy budgets. Local governments are required to apply to the Energy Commission for approval, documenting the supporting analysis for how the local government has determined that their proposed Standards will save more energy than the current statewide Standards and the basis of the local government's determination that the local standards are cost-effective. Once the Energy Commission staff has verified that the local standards will require buildings to use no more energy than the current statewide Standards and that the documentation requirements...

Colnago have launched their first ever disc brake equipped road bike, the C59 Disc. Based on their popular top end C59 frameset, Colnago say the C59 Disc has been redesigned to accommodate the different loading forces that disc brakes generate on the fork and seat stays.
The C59 Disc will come with Formula-made, Colnago-branded front and rear hydraulic 140mm discs. Alessandro Colango, the manufacturer's marketing and communications director, told BikeRadar that the brakes are based on Formula's R1, but modified for road use. The levers are Formula made and incorporate a hydraulic master cylinder into the leverbody; they also feature electronic shift levers, meant to simply plug-and-play with Shimano's Di2 drivetrain components.
The frame and fork will be compatible with standard brake calipers too. And in keeping with the in house branding, Colnago are fitting it with their own Artemis deep rimmed carbon wheelset, hammering home the point that this is a bike for road racing.
We are having trouble displaying this video
Video: Colnago C59 Disc
"The bike isn't assembled with a low weight target," said Colnago. "But just for comparison it's more or less 150g heavier than the same model with standard brakeset. The brakeset itself is lighter than the original Shimano Di2 [7900 mechanical rim brake calipers], also without carbon and titanium (that will be in the final version). The rims will be much lighter than the standard set due to the missing braking surface. The frame will be heavier, specially in the fork, and the hubs will be heavier too."
In announcing the new bike, Colnago said that they've "taken a bold step towards the future of road bike evolution" - recognising and no doubt influencing one of the biggest trends in the road bike market at the moment.
The brakes are Formula-made, Colnago branded
Colnago have yet to announce a price for the C59 Disc, but they are expecting worldwide availability in late July or early August.

I think it would be nice if there was a way to see what badges you are missing while you are in a dungeon, as well as which ones you still / no longer can obtain during the current run. NetHack, that ur-example of roguelikes, has a conduct list that tells you which voluntary challenges you have been adhering to so far in the run.
It would be nice if Desktop Dungeons had something similar, so you can check during a dungeon run whether you've bought something from shops, converted something, or used any glyphs. I think the quest log in the menu would be the right place for that, since there's only ever like two, maybe three quests maximum for each dungeon at the same time.
You could have a list of all the 10 (11?) badges there with their descriptions, have them faded out or solid depending on whether you've already earned them in a previous run, and have the text be strikethrough if you violated the conduct that would let you earn that badge on the current run. Or some other scheme - you're the designer. But I definitely think something like this should be in the game. I hate ending up wasting a run on trying to earn a badge I already had, or being unsure whether I already violated my Miser conduct.
(If there is a dedicated place to post suggestions like this, please let me know. I'll re-post this in the appropriate location if that isn't here.)
Since this is my first post, let me also add my thanks for making a great game like this! I thought the alpha version of the game could already stand very well on its own merits, but the game has come a long way since then, and I don't regret spending the money on preordering! Keep up the good work!

Best-Dressed Chefs!
Preheat oven to 400F. Grease an 8-inch baking dish
with the butter
and set it aside. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over
medium heat. Add the ground turkey, the onions, green peppers, and
garlic and cook until the turkey is no longer pink and is cooked
through, about 8 minutes. Drain off any excess fat and sprinkle the
meat mixture with the cumin.
Add the beans, tomatoes, chiles and adobo sauce
to the skillet and
bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer
until heated through and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove
pan from the heat and stir in the cheese and cilantro.
Spread the turkey mixture in the prepared baking
dish, pressing down
on it with the back of a spoon to make an even, compact layer. Combine
the cornbread mix with milk and egg. Spread the cornbread batter over
the turkey mixture and bake until the cornbread is golden-brown, 20 to
25 minutes. Let the tamale pie stand for 5 minutes before cutting into
squares and serving.

Americans are failing to honor the role of God in their lives and in their country
Dear Editor: I have a question for my fellow Americans. Have we become so complacent and arrogant that we no longer need God to comfort us in our grief or hardships?

Vertonghen joined Spurs from Ajax this summer and has gone on to become a fans' favourite after a series of excellent displays for Andre Villas-Boas' team.
The Belgian started his White Hart Lane career as a centre-back but soon moved over to left-back - the position he plays in for his country - after an injury to Benoit Assou-Ekotto.
Arsenal manager Wenger, who is under pressure after Arsenal's poor start to the campaign, was interested in signing Vertonghen, but the 25-year-old instead opted to move to the north London rivals after it became clear that the Frenchman wanted him to play in midfield.
"(Arsenal's interest) was concrete, but they wanted me to be a controller in the midfield, an Emmanuel Petit-type," Vertonghen told Dutch website NUsport.
"I'm not afraid of competition, but the overall picture of Spurs appealed to me more."
Spurs manager Villas-Boas initially moved Gareth Bale to left-back following Assou-Ekotto's injury, but Vertonghen has been a more effective solution during the Cameroonian's absence.
With Assou-Ekotto now back in full training following his three-month layoff, Vertonghen looks set to return to the heart of the defence, much to his delight.
He added: "Ultimately, I just came to play at centre back.
"Gareth Bale had to play left back, but it did not work so he pushed forward and I moved to full-back.
"I see myself still as a centre-back. I'm not agile enough to play against players like Nani and (Raheem) Sterling."
Villas-Boas, meanwhile, says any new recruits he adds in January must subscribe to his and Tottenham's attacking philosophy.
Speaking in a question and answer session on Twitter, the Portuguese, who has been linked with moves for Joao Moutinho, Fernando Llorente and Willian, said: "The players we are trying to bring in and have here also embrace that philosophy which we want to carry into the future.
"(Being at Spurs) is great because of the philosophy of the club want to implement, what I think about football and the way we should play.
"I think we should have a go, play well and be open."
Despite last weekend's defeat at Everton, Villas-Boas' team go in to Sunday's game against Swansea in fifth place, just three points behind Chelsea.
The 35 year-old, who lasted just under nine months in charge at Stamford Bridge, has been pleased by his start to life at White Hart Lane.
He said: "I have encountered a tremendous group of people, staff & players. (It was) important to get (a) positive response, which we have had since we arrived.
"It has been an exciting five months and we hope we can keep doing well in order to repay the confidence given to us from the beginning."

The Mikoyan MiG-29 is a 4th generation jet fighter aircraft designed in the Soviet Union for an air superiority role. Developed in the 1970s by the Mikoyan design bureau, it entered service with the Soviet Air Force in 1983, and remains in use by the Russian Air Force as well as in many other nations. NATO's reporting name for the MiG-29 is "Fulcrum", which was unofficially used by Soviet pilots in service. It was developed to counter new American fighters such as the F-16 Fighting Falcon, and the F/A-18 Hornet.
The model includes a 3-cell 2200 mAh Lipo battery and a balance charger that safely and evenly charges each cell to 4.2V. Includes a wall plug-in power supply (110V AC to 12V DC). The landing gear is sturdy with a steerable nose wheel. The jet has 3 servos pre-installed: one for steering and two for combined aileron and elevator function. The Mig also uses "Delta" mixing where the elevators and ailerons work together for both roll and pitch control. In slow flight, with both ailerons and elevators up, the jet can slow down dramatically and still be in complete control, great for a "High Alpha" approach to a short landing.
Our scale Mig 29 (ARF) comes equipped with 2 fans, 2 motors, 2 ESCs, and almost ready-to-fly (Arf) right out of the box. With specifications like a 28 inch wingspan, a length of 40 inches, 289 sq in wing area, and a flying weight of just under 28 ounces, you can see why this jet is so attractive. The two included 55mm fans with 4300 Kv brushless motors and two 18 amp brushless controllers really put out the thrust necessary for high speed flight and aerobatic performance. The jet is made from molded EPS foam construction with all of the paintings pre-applied. It comes almost fully assembled and ready to hit the sky. Right out of the box, it only takes about 20 minutes for you to experience the joys of owning your very own Mig 29 fighter jet. (All you need is a 4ch radio controller and receiver.)

Today's Ingredient Spotlight features quinoa! While quinoa is commonly referred to and used as a grain, it's actually a seed. And, botanically it's more closely related to beets and spinach than it is to wheat or grains.
Of course about 3 years ago you probably had never heard of quinoa before; at least I had not. But, of late, the popularity of quinoa has skyrocketed. Quinoa pudding, tacos, popcorn, pizza crust, waffles, granola, soup, pasta, crackers & ice cream.
I can't say that I have jumped onto the quinoa bandwagon. But, I have pinned some delicious looking quinoa recipes:
Pizza Quinoa Casserole – A yummy cheese-filled casserole from The Spiffy Cookie!
Blueberry Quinoa Pancakes – From A Pretty Life. You don't have to twist my arm twice with blueberry pancakes!
Quinoa Cookies – A cookie made with flour, quinoa, fall spices, oatmeal and chocolate chips! Sounds like a winner to me. From Two Peas and their Pod.
Chocolate Chip Blueberry Breakfast Quinoa – Sounds like a fun alternative to oatmeal! The blueberry chocolate combo is brilliant – from How Sweet It Is.
Kale, Sausage & Quinoa Scramble – Switch up breakfast with this new scramble featuring quinoa among kale and sausage. From Style & Grace.
So, here's what I want to know:
- Have you tried quinoa?
- Do you cook regularly with it?
- What are your favorite recipes featuring quinoa?

Jeff Pierce will begin his 17th year serving as head coach at Ferris State for the 2011 season and owns the distinction of being the Bulldogs' all-time winningest coach with a 96-80 overall record.
Pierce, who attained the historic milestone in Ferris' overtime conference victory at Ashland on Sept. 4, 2004, also boasts the program's third-highest ever winning percentage (.545) in the Bulldogs' gridiron history.
Pierce was named to his present FSU head coaching post in May 1995, succeeding Keith Otterbein (1986-94). Previously, Pierce served as a Bulldog assistant coach for 12 years.
Under Pierce, Ferris State has won or shared three Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC) titles while earning back-to-back (1995 and 1996) berths in the NCAA Division II National Championship playoffs, including a 1995 semifinal-round appearance which represents the highest finish ever in the program's history.
Pierce made his rookie coaching season (1995) a memorable one by directing Ferris State to a 12-1 overall record as the Bulldogs reached the NCAA Division II Semifinals for the first-time ever in the program's history while earning a number three national ranking. As a result of guiding Ferris to to an unprecedented fourth consecutive conference title at that time, Pierce was honored as the GLIAC's Coach of the Year. The following campaign (1996), Ferris State went 10-2 overall and advanced to the NCAA Division II Quarterfinals.
"My major goal is to motivate our players and get the most out of every person in the football program. I've been here for a number of years and have experienced the bad times and the good times," Pierce said. "The one thing you must instill in your program is to keep the players focused on what it takes to win a championship."
Pierce has established firm roots with the Bulldogs since graduating from Sault Ste. Marie (Mich.) High School in 1974. He was a defensive back at Ferris from 1974-77 and later started his coaching career in 1983 under Nick Coso as a graduate assistant and head coach for the junior varsity. When Dan Underwood took over as head coach in 1984-85, Pierce remained on board to coach the inside linebackers. He joined Otterbein's staff in 1986 and was promoted to defensive coordinator in 1988.
In his seven years as defensive coordinator, Pierce coached one of the NCAA Division II's top defenses. His 1992 defensive unit led the nation in fewest points allowed and the 1994 Bulldogs were first in the conference in total defense.
Pierce graduated from Ferris State with a degree in trade-technical teacher education in 1979, earning a pair of President's Academic Awards along the way. He completed graduate school in 1985 with a master's degree in athletic administration from Central Michigan University.
"Ferris State is second to none when it comes time to sell our academic programs," Pierce said. "Our football players can't lose sight of the fact that Ferris can get you a job when you get out of college."
Pierce first arrived at Ferris after an all-conference football career at Sault Ste. Marie High School. He also wrestled in high school and was "All-Upper Peninsula" in track.
In 1978, Pierce was an assistant varsity football coach at Sault Ste. Marie High. From 1979-83, he logged two years as head junior varsity football coach, two years as head varsity football coach and four years as head varsity track coach at old Big Bay De Noc (Mich.) High School, which is located in the Upper Peninsula.
Pierce resides in Big Rapids with his wife, Suzie, and their two sons, Jason and Justin.
He's a member of the America Football Coaches Association (AFCA).

Suckers - By Bob Collier
I have always liked suckers. They come in sweet flavors and usually last a lot longer than a piece of chocolate. Suckers are a comfort food. If you are watching your fat intake then you are in luck. Suckers are fat free. Of course there are other kinds of suckers. I believe it was Phineas T. Barnum that said, "There is a sucker born every minute." The late comedian and actor W.C. Fields said, "Never give a sucker an even break."
In the 20th chapter of Matthew, Jesus tells a story that could be titled, The Suckers!" He tells the story of an employer who needs workers for his vineyard. He goes into the marketplace of the city to look for unemployed men waiting to be hired. He finds some day laborers and they agree on a price for a day's work. As the day goes on, more laborers are needed and more are hired at the same wage. When the time comes at sunset for the workers to be paid, the employer tells his foreman to pay all the workmen the same wage, beginning with those who were hired last. Each worker is to receive a full day's pay. The workers who were hired first and worked the longest begin to complain, and even challenge the employer. They try to tell him how to manage his business. "The men who came last have done only one hour," they grumble, "and you have treated them equal to us though we have done a heavy day's work." (Mt. 20:12). To which the owner and master of the vineyard replies, "I am not being unjust to you.... take your earnings and go; I choose to pay the last-comer as I pay you." Then, as a true capitalist of the ancient world, the master asserts his right to control and manage his affairs his way, saying, "Have I no right to do what I want with my own? Why be envious because I am generous?" Jesus ends the parable with his famous maxim: "So the last will be first, and the first last" (Mt. 20:12-16). The men who worked the whole day felt they had been suckered. They received what they were promised, but instead of being content they were focused wrongly on the other workers who worked a shorter day.
The kingdom of God is like that, Jesus is telling us. God is in control of his vineyard. God is in charge of his universe. God does what he chooses with what belongs to him. God gives us the gift of life and the means to bring it to fulfillment according to his plan. And isn't it the case very often that we grumble and complain, and we begrudge his generosity by trying to challenge him and usurp his authority and run things our way?
Isn't it true that we spend way too much time comparing, judging, and pointing at others and not enough time looking in the mirror? I don't know about you, but I am going down the hall and look at my reflection right now.
Bob Collier is the pastor of North Salem Church of God.

Castro returns to the national stage
Mayor talks of path to success, family history
INDIANOLA, Iowa — On the stage of Iowa Sen. Tom Harkin's Steak Fry, an important annual tradition in Democratic politics here, the rally's namesake characterized San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro and Vice President Joe Biden as the epitome of the national party's diversity and path to the future.
"Mayor Castro is young, charismatic — one of our bright stars with new ideas, new energy, broadening the constituency of our party," Harkin told the crowd of about 1,300. "Vice President Biden ... embodies the enormous experience and wisdom and sound judgment of our party, which we need in these perilous times. We need both — the new and the seasoned. And this is a great strength that we have as Democrats."
Harkin's first steak fry was in 1972 — two years before Castro was born. The mayor and his twin brother, U.S. Rep. Joaquín Castro, D-San Antonio, will celebrate their 39th birthdays Monday in San Antonio.
Over the weekend, Julián Castro attended several events connected to the Steak Fry, including one meant to energize the Latino wing of the Iowa Democratic Party. On Sunday at the Warren County Fair Grounds, Castro was greeted with a warm and enthusiastic welcome.
Castro's speech touched on some of the themes of his 2012 address, including the American dream and his family history.
The mayor stayed clear of divisive political statements, even at this dyed-in-the-wool Democratic event. He told the crowd that he disagreed with the Republican philosophy that the United States would be better off if everyone would just go at it alone and the government would stay out of the way.
"I believe in a different blueprint. I believe in the blueprint of Roosevelt investing in the GI Bill so that millions of Americans could get a great higher education. I believe in the blueprint of Johnson shepherding Medicare through Congress so that millions and millions of senior citizens could get the health care they needed. And I believe in the blueprint of President Obama and Vice President Biden extending health care to all Americans in the United States," Castro said. "And I know that this is the blueprint because it's worked like this: In the United States, we have always had a basic bargain. We expect you and your family to work hard, but when you do, we reward that hard work with opportunity."
Castro said he was speaking from experience. He and his twin were accepted to Stanford University in April 1992. The cost for one of them to attend exceeded their single mother's entire annual salary.
The only reason they made it through college is because they worked hard and used federal grants and loans.
"I invested in myself, but fundamentally, I reached my dream because you invested in me, because the American people invested in me," he said. "That is America. That's what's great about this nation. That is the blueprint for success in this 21st century."
A black helicopter circled overhead before the mayor and Biden arrived, and the crowd and media went through significant security checks to enter the event.
The amount of security became a punch line. In introducing Castro, Harkin apologized for the heightened level of precaution: the Secret Service's sweeps, the event staff's double-checking of tickets. He joked that he'd heard Donald Trump was in the parking lot checking birth certificates, too.
Earlier in the day, Castro told a Des Moines television station that he probably would never run for president. He continues to say he plans on being mayor as long as the voters will elect him. In his third two-year term as mayor now, Castro would have a final mayoral election in 2015.
There are expectations that he'll run for governor in 2018 and that his brother might challenge Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Houston, in the same election.
Retiring from the Senate, Harkin delivered the red-meat political speech that kept the crowd laughing Sunday.
By the way, he told them, there's never actually had been a steak fried at the annual gathering.
"I don't know where the heck that name ever came from," he said. "The Steak Fry always marks the changes between the seasons."
The 2013 summer in Iowa was a scary one, Harkin said.
"There was an attack on the butter cow (a life-size sculpture made from butter at the state fair) — isn't anything sacred anymore?" he said. "Over the summer, we've endured visits by Rick Santorum, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, and Gov. 'Oops' Perry is on his way. All I can say, folks, is the clown car is filling up pretty rapidly early in the season."
Before the speechifying began, folks milled about, talking politics and eating steaks and barbecue — and drinking beer. That's always been the theme of the event, said Ruth Harkin, the senator's wife.
The Steak Fry has become the stage where presidential hopefuls go. But Castro has insisted that he's not running for anything. He routinely waves off speculation that he could be picked as a running mate by former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton if she becomes the Democratic nominee.
Harkin, though, pointed out that Castro stood Sunday on the same stage as then-Sen. Barack Obama in 2006. Two years before, Obama had presented the keynote address at the Democratic National Convention.
Harkin noted Castro's ascent onto the national political stage marked by his historic keynote address last year, making him the first Latino ever to give a keynote speech at the convention.
Castro told the Iowans on Sunday that as he flew into Des Moines the day before, he looked out across the farmland and thought of his grandmother, who used to pick crops.
"I thought about how proud she would have been that she had been picking crops and her grandson would be here where you guys pick a president of the United States," Castro said. "That is the American dream."
After Castro concluded his speech, Harkin and the audience sang "Happy Birthday" to the Castro brothers. Among those in the crowd were some of the people who helped get the Castros first elected to office in the early 2000s.
Biden finished the day with a wide-ranging speech that heaped admiration on Harkin, noted the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and mentioned the turmoil in Syria.
During his 35-minute address, Biden often referred to Castro as "the mayor" but never called him by his name. Biden is reportedly weighing whether to seek the presidential nomination to succeed Obama in the midst of a national effort to draft Hillary Clinton for the position. Castro is staying out of the issue and concluded his speech by looking forward to the November 2016 election of "the Democratic nominee."
If there is any tension between Biden and Castro, it wasn't evident Sunday. The two appeared quite friendly as others spoke at the lectern. When Biden took the microphone, he joked that it was Castro's presence that had summoned the scores of media that packed into the event.
"I know the mayor will find this as a shock, but it's amazing that when you come to speak at the Steak Fry, people take notice," he said. "You've attracted the entire national press corps here."
