Stock-brokers, who have seen their business get impacted by falling volumes and declining investor interest, are now trying to generate income by offering high assured returns to investors, but, in turn, are asking clients for a percentage of those returns. Such deals, though not legal, are mostly struck in cash and typically with high net worth clients interested in day trading or in derivatives.
A retail investor who has been trading in the market for over 20 years said the broker's share is often in the range of 25-30%, depending on the size of trades and the risk appetite of the investor. The trades are mostly settled at the end of each trading session in cash, he added.
The dealer asks the client to commit a certain amount of money for the trade. He is then told to place a buy order at a certain level. The cut for the dealer is usually 25-30% if the client makes profits from the trade. Most of these clients are investors that operate from the brokers office and are willing to share a part of their profits to the dealers at the end of the day in cash, said the investor on condition of anonymity.
Another retail investor who mostly trades in the derivative segment said that she was asked by her dealer to take highly risky bets and was assured of profits in lieu of a 10% cut. When the investor complained to senior officials of the brokerage, the investor was told to trade through a different dealer.
Industry watchers believe that both brokers and clients are to be blamed for the malpractice. It is mostly HNIs that enter into such agreements with the dealers for quick returns. Such investors are ready to allocate a portion of their trading corpus to risky bets, said an analyst with a Mumbai-based brokerage. Added Arun Kejriwal, founder of Kejriwal Research and Investment Services, an advisory firm: Clients are also to be blamed as it is their greed that leads to such practices.
Stock exchanges have been seeing a steady flow of complaints from clients against malpractices by brokers. In the current calendar year, the BSE received 377 complaints against brokerages for carrying out unauthorised trades and misappropriation of funds on the behalf of their respective clients. NSE has received 1,294 such complaints.
However, market players believe that such 'dealer-client' arrangements are on a decline owing to the

Republic's Frontier Pilots Approve Cuts for Restructuring
Frontier Airlines pilots approved concessions that will allow parent Republic Airways Holdings Inc. to pursue a $120 million restructuring at the unprofitable unit.
Pilots voted 498-58 to delay pay increases and accept cuts in vacation, sick days and company 401(k) contributions in exchange for an unspecified equity stake in Frontier, Jeff Thomas, president of the Frontier Airline Pilots Association, said today in an e-mail.
The approval clears the way for Republic to seek givebacks from other Frontier employees, vendors and aircraft lessors and to raise $70 million in new capital. Republic bought Frontier out of bankruptcy in October 2009.
The vote "is important from the point of view of shaping the attitudes of the entire workforce," Robert McAdoo, an analyst at Avondale Partners LLC, said in an interview. "That's also the biggest pool of salary dollars. If you can't get the savings on that, you're not going to get enough out of the ticket agent or flight attendant salary pool."
Republic rose 17 cents, or 3.8 percent, to $4.61 at 4 p.m. New York time in Nasdaq Stock Market trading. The shares have dropped 37 percent this year.
Labor-Related Cuts
Republic, based in Indianapolis, may end up owning a minority stake in Frontier if the restructuring is completed. As part of the pilots' agreement, Republic must make a "good-faith effort" to attract equity investors that would reduce its holdings by the end of 2014. The company hired a consultant to help with the Frontier plan.
In addition to the new capital, the airline projects $25 million in labor-related cuts, on top of at least $25 million in savings from moving some regional jets from Frontier to contract flying at Republic.
"Our board will move forward with its commitment to invest additional liquidity in Frontier to fund the airline's operations and future growth," Republic Chief Executive Officer Bryan Bedford said after the pilot vote.
The agreement with the pilots also calls for the carrier to order new narrow-body jets and establish a profit-sharing plan. The current labor contract would be extended by two years.
"In ratifying this agreement, the pilots have made a significant equity investment in Frontier Airlines and look forward to contributing to its future success," Thomas said.
Bedford took on a new business model when Republic's $108.8 million bid for Frontier beat Southwest Airlines Co. in a 2009 bankruptcy auction. Republic has posted losses in three of the six quarters since.
Republic operates commuter flights ferrying passengers to major airports for larger carriers like Delta Air Lines Inc. and United Continental Holdings Inc. Frontier makes commercial passenger flights under its own name from its base in Denver, where it is third in the number of passengers, after United and Southwest.

Telecom NZ's Chris Quin says the company could walk away from its outsourcing deal which sees Yahoo look after mail accounts on the xtra.co.nz domain.
That's a possible response to the security breach at Yahoo. The Internet company seems unable or unwilling to deal with the problem.
It is hard to see what value Yahoo gives Telecom NZ in 2013.
When Telecom NZ outsourced its mail service to Yahoo in 2007. It needed a way to manage the 800,000 or so Xtra mail accounts.
In those days ISP customers expected to get email accounts as part of their Internet services. Today's ISPs sell data pipes with a little support and little else.
Many Xtra customers already have webmail accounts with services like Gmail and Outlook.com.
A YahooXtra account is almost unnecessary.
I say almost unnecessary because there are two reasons Telecom can't immediately dump them altogether.
First, history – what technology people might call 'legacy issues'. Some of my email still comes via Xtra even though it is routed through Gmail. Figuring out which contacts have my old address and getting them to update my details isn't straightforward.
Second, webmail address are second class citizens online. Some services don't allow customers to sign up with Gmail, Hotmail or Outlook.com addresses. Not every Telecom NZ customer wants to buy their own domain for a mail address, so keeping the Xtra domain as an option would be a good move.
Telecom NZ can walk customers through the process of setting up webmail accounts on alternative services – not a difficult job. And I'm sure Google and Microsoft would be only too happy to help sign up new business.

How to lose an argument
Mark Driscoll, megachurch pastor, conference speaker, author, husband and father, has added another facet to his job description: lightning rod. Wherever his name is mentioned, even among Christians, the word "controversial" often lurks nearby. His frank discussions of sex, both from the pulpit and in print, have drawn both fire and headlines. But Pastor Mark's main focus for all his years of ministry has been the gospel of Jesus Christ: "timeless truth for truthless times." Which is, when you think about it, the most controversial subject of all.
The latest dustup hit the Huffington Post a few weeks ago, after a sermon at Driscoll's home church, Mars Hill in Seattle. The sermon text was itself a lightning rod: Ephesians 5:22-33, beginning, "Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord. …" The Huffington Post took issue with the few minutes of the sermon that addressed nagging wives, while another blogger, rather creatively, attacked Driscoll for anti-intellectualism.
The actual sermon, as a whole, left a lot to think about besides dripping faucets and Greek etymology. The overwhelming emphasis was on verse 25: "Husbands, love your wives as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her. …" Pastor Mark then drew out of the text five specific ways Christ loved the church, followed by nine implications for wives and an equal number for husbands. The theme of Christ's love was not mentioned in any of the criticism, but it was all over the sermon. Most critics of biblical Christianity would prefer to leave Jesus out of it, and argue from the platform of social mores. No way, said Driscoll: "Christians and non-Christians don't come to different conclusions. They have different minds [1 Corinthians 2:16]."
In other words, in a discussion with unbelievers it's not our conclusion that matters as much as our premise. We begin with Christ, and we end with Him. We'll never win any argument about Ephesians 5:22 in isolation, no matter how much word study and cultural analysis and exegesis come into play. That's because "wives, submit" is not a separate principle but an exercise of the gospel itself—which does not begin with weak women giving up their individuality, but begins with Jesus Christ giving up Himself. He cares more about winning souls than winning arguments, and so should we.
We keep hearing that the church must change its attitude toward gender roles or sexual orientations or [insert current issue here] if it is to survive into the next century. But Jesus already changed everything—for first century Romans and medieval Franks and Renaissance Florentines and proper Victorians. Something about Him has always been offensive to somebody, yet His bride is still alive and even (in certain places) flourishing. As long as she is true to Him she will live and flourish eternally, after every "truthless time" has come to an end.

Scottsdale, AZ (Sports Network) - Kyle Lohse worked 3 2/3 solid innings in a
belated first start of the spring during the Milwaukee Brewers' 6-2 victory
over the Colorado Rockies.
Lohse, signed to a three-year contract by Milwaukee on Monday after an
extended stay on the free-agent market, yielded just one run on four hits and
struck out two without a walk in his Brewers' debut.
Milwaukee received a contribution from another newcomer in the win, as
recently acquired infielder Yuniesky Betancourt went 3-for-4 with a two-run
homer to pace the club offensively. Betancourt was signed by the Brewers this
week as well.
Aramis Ramirez and Jean Segura each finished 2-for-3 for Milwaukee, with
Ramirez driving in a pair of runs.
Tyler Massey had a solo home run for the Rockies, with Carlos Gonzalez
chipping in an RBI double in the loss.
Colorado starter Nick Schmidt lasted just three innings and was reached for
five runs on seven hits.

Celtics recall Melo from D-League January, 2, 2013 JAN 2 11:57 AM ET By Chris Forsberg | ESPNBoston.com
The Boston Celtics recalled Fab Melo from the Maine Red Claws of the D-League on Wednesday.
The move is likely procedural as Melo sustained a mild concussion and sat out Maine's last game on Monday. In order to be treated by the team's training staff, Melo must be formally recalled to the parent club.
In need of big-man depth after Chris Wilcox suffered a thumb injury last month, the team elected to sign Jarvis Varnado out of the D-League. Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge has said he doesn't want to stunt Melo's development by bringing him up too soon.
Melo, a 7-foot center tabbed with the 22nd pick in June's draft, has appeared in 12 games for the Red Claws this season averaging 10.9 points, 6.9 rebounds and 3.8 blocks per game. Melo came on strong at the end of December, posting a triple double against Erie with 15 point, 16 rebound and a D-League record 14 blocks on Dec. 22, then followed that up with a 32-point, 9-rebound, 9-block effort against Idaho.
The Celtics recalled Melo in December in order to be treated for a quadriceps issue. He was quickly returned to Maine.

Charleston, SC (AP) - Experts at an international conference
in South Carolina disagree on whether it's safe to eat seafood from
the Gulf of Mexico after this year's oil spill.
The International Conference on Shellfish Restoration is under
way in Charleston.
One expert said Friday he still doesn't eat Gulf seafood, while
another said he does all the time. A third said he ate Gulf seafood
during a recent trip to New Orleans but didn't do it with much
Scientists agreed that one task they face is to make sure the
lessons learned from the Deepwater Horizon spill are preserved so
they can be drawn upon during the next big spill.
Large areas of the Gulf were closed to fishing for a time
because of the spill. After the Deepwater Horizon rig exploded,
some 170 million gallons of oil spewed from an undersea well.

10. Notting Hill
This one is classic. Starring Hugh Grant and Julia Roberts, the story takes place in a charming London neighborhood of the same name that shapes the plot of the movie. Upon repeat viewings, you realize there is little chemistry between the leads and their love story is incomprehensible, but London – the movie's biggest character – makes up for the talent deficit. They captured the neighborhood well, perhaps too well since now it's even more of a tourist destination on the weekends. It's hard to move around it's crawling with so many tourists! There really is a Travel Bookshop in Notting Hill and it's worth the visit.

9. Love, Actually
This is very nearly one of those perfect romantic comedies. Set during Christmastime in London, it concerns the trials and tribulations in love of a loosely connected group of people. People who all live hip and cool lives that you really wish you were a part of. Some of the plot threads are sad, not necessarily happy but the subject is love in all it's forms, warts and all. It's charming and has become my favorite Christmas movie, if anything because Billy Mack is hilarious.

8. Pride and Prejudice
I've never been a fan of Jane Austen so I only look at this movie as it's own creature. I love it. I love the scenery, the culture, the plot, music, everything. The end where the couple meets on the cool English morning as the sun rises is a perfect representation of what it's really like to walk through the English countryside in the morning. When I watch it, I'm literally in Dorset, walking across the hills and valleys. A lovely movie, even if it doesn't keep to the book well.

7. About a Boy
This isn't your typical romantic comedy, in fact there isn't much romance in it at all. It's mostly about the relationship between a selfish materialistic man and a boy crying out for a father figure. Despite some serious subject matter, the movie works and has enough funny moments to make up for the serious bits. Hugh Grant does a great job playing himself, a self absorbed douchebag.

6. Bridget Jones Diary
Though Bridget Jones herself can be a rather annoying person, the movie is still great fun. Colin Firth is a great lead and he mellows out the insane Bridget in many scenes. The real London locations are marvelous as are her stereotypical British friends. Avoid the sequel though, it's a piece of crap. My wife and I were very disappointed.

5. The Queen
The Queen of England has generally been off limits for movies and dramas, so this movie breaks significant ground in portraying the venerable monarch. We get to see the inner working of the Royal family as well as a portrait of a person whom is generally thought to not have a real personality. The sets and scenery are amazing. It's a wonderful film that takes place during a time of great change in Modern Britain. A very moving picture.

4. V for Vendetta
This is also a rather serious movie, dealing with themes such as the moral relativism of terrorism, totalitarian government and sick forms of love. It paints a pretty bleak picture of what England could become given the right conditions. But it's also an excellent portrait of the resiliency of the British People who won't take oppression lying down. The whole movie comes to a head at the end when a mob descends upon Parliament Square. What's most amazing is that they actually filmed it there and considering all the logistics that went into it, you've gotta be impressed with the result.

3. Local Hero
Many people haven't heard of this movie, it's a classic gem from the 80's. It's about an 80's Yuppie Oilman sent to a sleepy Scottish village to negotiate it's purchase because of oil located in the area. The locals are ecstatic since the area is rather economically depressed but the main character goes local and learns a lot about himself and what truly matters in life. It has an excellent score as well.

2. The Remains of the Day
This is a wonderful sweeping British Drama from the days of Merchant-Ivory. Anthony Hopkins stars as a Butler who sees many changes in history and the ownership of the estate he serves. There are wonderful themes about friendship and loyalty as well as unrequited love and loss. The vistas are amazing as is the grand house it takes place in. Emma Thompson plays one of her best roles at the love interest of Hopkins. This movie is long, quiet and contemplative yet delightful.

1. Master and Commander
In my opinion, this is the perfect British movie for Anglophiles. Everything about this movie is perfect. From the authentic ship to the multi-faceted characters, it's all perfect. It's an awesome adventure filled with danger, loss and camaraderie. I can't find a bad thing to say about this movie. It's a shame it wasn't a bigger hit so they'd make more.

Could I be pregnant??
Ive been on the pill for almost a year now. I took it consistently for several months and skimped later on because i wasn't sexually active. I began to take them everyday when i became active again (however I think I might have missed a day and doubled up as well as not taken it at the same time everyday). Condoms were not used but he did pull out. I got my period (which lasted a good week) the next period I had was on time but was not like my normal one. I normally get cramps and back pains before hand and I didnt that time. The flow was very light and lasted maybe 4 days. I did experience some cramping but it was very mild compared to what I usual get. Im not sure if all this is because of the pill or if I am pregnant. Ive also had some other symptoms but im not sure if its all quinsidental/in my head or theyre signs. I feel bloated, tired, queasy, headaches, back and neck aches, etc.This has been going on for about 2 weeks and is getting worse. Is there a chance I could be pregnant?

When some one stops taking pills and starts again OR is taking pills for the first time, it is important to use another means of contraception simultaneously for the first one week (I am a physician). Your symptoms are not something one could say you are or you are not pregnant. Some home pregnancy tests say that they can detect preganncy 2 weeks after the last intercourse. Why dont you test?posted 08/19/2012 by Sara mother to be!

Safety concerns highlighted by a clinical trial mean Novartis will stop promoting its high blood pressure therapy Rasilez®/Tekturna® and products containing the API, aliskiren, for use in combination with ACE-inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). A seventh interim review of data found that there was a higher incidence of nonfatal stroke, renal complications, hyperkalemia, and hypotension after 18–24 months of combined therapy.
The 8,600-patient Altitude trial was evaluating aliskerin as an addition to optimal cardiovascular therapy specifically in type two diabetes patients with renal impairment. The study has now been stopped on the recommendations of the overseeing data monitoring committee (DMC).
Novartis says it will work with DMCs to review the findings of other clinical trials evaluating aliskiren in combination with other therapies. The firm is in addition involved in discussions with health authorities globally about the potential implications of the Altitude findings for patients.
Total sales of aliskiren-based products for the first nine months of 2011 reached $449 million and represented 1% of Novartis group sales. The firm admits future sales are likely to be impacted negatively by the study results.

To show surpassing power
Faith & Inspiration
There is a little girl in my life who loves the Lord. Where does this come from? No one in her household believes in God, and we know that children of a tender age normally imbibe their parents' beliefs. She is a flower growing in the desert.
Her mother, after some vocal consternation, seems to have changed her approach. She will bide her time and wait this out, reasoning that her daughter's ardor is a phase of some kind that will die on its own for lack of oxygen. In this, the mom displays an echo of ancient wisdom:
". . . keep away from these men and let them alone, for if this plan or this undertaking is of man, it will fail, but if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow them. You might even be found opposing God!" (Acts 5:38-39)
And so I have been praying more than ever that this young one's faith will not fail, nor diminish by a whit, but prove lasting. I am praying that it will survive all the commonplace onslaughts known to man: discouragement, propaganda, moods, boredom, lack of nurturing, and especially time.
The basis of my prayer is firm. I do not ask from impure motives but from the strong position of God's stated will and His glory. God is always interested to . . .
". . . show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us" (2 Corinthians 4:7).
This is the way I have spoken to God:
"Father, N's mother thinks her faith is a psychological phenomenon, and that it will pass like a taste for gummy bears. Be glorious! Do not let her ascribe to natural forces that which is supernatural. Guard that child's faith, to show your surpassing power, to make it clear beyond a shadow of a doubt that it is of You."
Who knows? Maybe her mother will see and believe and be saved.

how do you guys keep ticks off you while out in the brush? is there a brand of tick repellent you guys prefer?
how do you guys keep ticks off you while out in the brush? is there a brand of tick repellent you guys prefer?
Sawyer Permethrin. Ticks hate the stuff. Spray it on all your gear, let it dry, and you're good to go. It's even good for several washes. I didn't get bit or find a single tick on my skin last year, when I had clothing sprayed with permethrin.
I'd opt for the spray bottle vs the aerosol can, it sprays better, and doesn't get on your hands like the aerosol can does.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Permethrin treating clothing is good. The lotion type repellents are good on your skin. The best thing that has helped me is using solid colored pants and softshell gaiters. I just frequently check my pants and they are easy to see on the solid background. I haven't had a single tick get inside my clothes since I started using the gaiters.
Pulled a couple off my pants last night.
Send your wife into the thicker brush first. Also good for 1) flushing birds for you when upland game hunting, and 2) *hopefully* bumping out any grizzlies that may be taking a nap. If she comes out tick-free, all the better. Off to the next brush patch.
In all honesty, I haven't found anything that works yet. My son and I each had ticks on us while shed hunting in Montana earier this year. My truly lovely wife extracted the one latched onto my back where I couldn't reach. I haven't tried them myself yet, but the Gamehide Elimitick products might be worth checking out.
go with a permethrin type of treatment on clothing with a small amount of spraying OFF when you go into the woods. The permethrin will work wonders and the off will keep those that are falling from the trees off your body.
Seems to me like the ticks this year are particularly bad. I pulled 11 off me last week after horn hunting for the day. Nasty little buggers! At least I found more horns than ticks.
G&T Crazy
I've typically sprayed down lightly with DEET products, Off and Repel brands on my clothes in the past and it work well for me. Don't get it on plastics though. DEET will melt them. I've been trying some of the healthier products, natural plant products, etc.... They did not seem to work all that well for me. Ticks are nasty critters to deal with once they dig in. I like to keep some bug repellant with me in the car at all times. I think I'll get some of that permethrin and give it a try. I was out backpacking in the Seirras this past week and the bugs were not all that bad up high but they will be out in force soon by the water.
Lucky for me , I have not had any on me this year so far!

THE BOSTON MOB.- Deputy Marshal Riley has made a statement
in regard to the mob which rescued the fugitive slave in Boston. Marshal Devens
was absent from the city at the time of the arrest and rescue. The requests
of the Deputy Marshal to the Mayor and city authorities for assistance against
the mob, were unheeded, and the individual officers appealed to, found reasons
for refusing to assist in the affair, in the state law of 1843, which prohibits
all officers of the commonwealth from engaging under severe penalties in the
arrest, detention, or imprisonment of a fugitive slave. This law refusing the
use of the State jails or prisons for U. S. purposes, obliged the Marsh to keep
the prisoners in the Court House. The Deputy Marshal had sent word to Commander
Downes, at the Charlestown Navy Yard to furnish provision for his imprisonment
there, but he did not consider himself authorized to grant it. The sword of
the Deputy Marshal was not wrenched from his hand, but was taken from the desk,
where it lay, and thrown into the street. According to the provisions of the
fugitive slave law, the Marshal is responsible for the loss of the fugitive,
and if the claimant insists, he must pay him the value of the slave. The Mayor
and city Marshal have published statements tending to exculpate themselves from
all blame in the affair. The Mayor and city Marshal have also issued orders
that in case of any more such breaches of the peace, that the Police force of
the city be put in requisition to preserve the peace and the sanctity of the
Elizur arrested for being engaged in the mob. Wright has been examined and
bound over in the sum of $2,000 for trial before the U. States Court in March.
A special dispatch from Boston to the New York Tribune, states that is is a
well ascertained fact that more warrants have been issued for fugitive slaves,
and that the colored citizens are believed to be thoroughly organized and armed.
The dispatch further states that a new military association is about to be formed
there, to be called the "Liberty League." More than 100 of the most
influential and able-bodied young men in the city are pledged to join it, for
the purpose of opposing the fugitive slave law. Shadrich, the escaped fugitive,
is now in Canada. He left the city by private conveyance, and on Sunday morning
was received at the house of an abolitionist in Western Massachusetts, where
he knelt and returned thanks for his deliverance, before he would partake of
his breakfast. In the evening he attended an anti-slavery meeting in female
attire, and remained unsuspected by the audience, while his arrest rescue were
the subjects of discussion.
Two more persons were arrested on Friday.
The Fugitive Slave Act was passed by congress on September 18, 1850, as part of a compromise allowing California to enter the Union as a free state and ending the slave trade in the District of Columbia. The act made the federal government responsible for tracking down and apprehending slaves who had escaped to the northern states. No statute of limitations applied, so that even slaves who had been free for many years could be returned. The passage and enforcement of this law enraged many people in the North--even those who were not ardent abolitionists. As noted in this article, an 1843 Massachusetts law prevented "all officers of the commonwealth from engaging under severe penalties in the arrest, detention, or imprisonment of a fugitive slave." Shadrach Minkins was the fugitive slave who had been rescued by a mob when he was arrested and then held at the courthouse on February 15, 1851. This article mentions that four men had been arrested for their part in Shadrach's escape, but a total of nine abolitionists were eventually indicted. All were ultimately acquitted.

Box Score vs. Drake | vs. IPFW
FORT WAYNE, Ind. - The Butler volleyball team split its two season-opening matches Friday at the IPFW Volleyball Tournament, defeating Drake, 3-0, before falling to IPFW by the same score.
In the season opener Friday morning against Drake, junior Jessica Wolfe led the Bulldogs with a double-double, notching a team-high 16 kills and 13 digs.
"We played really well. It was a good first match to get under our belts," head coach Sharon Clark said. "We played great defense and had a balanced effort on offense."
BU (1-0) started quickly in the first set, jumping out to a 9-3 lead. The Bulldogs would never trail, although Drake did pull within 22-21 after a Butler service error. Butler then finished Drake off with two Wolfe kills and an ace from junior Katie Daprile to win 25-22.
With the second set tied 5-5, Butler would go on a 9-2 run to take a 14-7 lead and forcing DU to call timeout. Butler would continue to pull away, leading 22-11 at one point en route to a 25-13 win in the second set.
BU would jump ahead 12-5 and then 16-9 in the third set, eventually finishing the sweep with a 25-21 clinching set.
Daprile narrowly missed a double-double, finishing with 10 digs and eight kills while hitting .412. Sophomore Maureen Bamiro hit .333 with seven kills. Freshman setter Gina Vera, making her collegiate debut, totaled 34 assists. Junior libero Brittany Awai led the Bulldogs on defense with 18 digs.
In the nighcap versus tourney host IPFW, the Mastodons took control with a 25-20 win in the first set and managed to hold the Bulldogs at bay. BU had several chances to even the match in the second set, at one point holding a 27-26 lead. IPFW ended up rallying for a 30-28 win. In the third set, IPFW controlled throughout and finished Butler off with a 25-18 clincher.
"IPFW played with a lot of energy and they did just about everything right," Clark said. "We played our game, we just couldn't get into a rhythm."
IPFW held Butler (1-1) to .178 hitting, just hours after the Bulldogs hit .324 against Drake. Wolfe led BU with 10 kills and eight digs. Senior Porshia Allen posted nine kills and six digs while hitting .471 and Vera had 37 assists.
Butler continues at IPFW with two matches on Saturday, Aug. 29. The Bulldogs take on Eastern Illinois and Kent State, respectively.

Jared Ingersoll
|Founding Fathers
|Jared Ingersoll
|Founding Documents
|United States Constitution
Jared Ingersoll (b. October 24, 1749; d. October 31, 1822) was a lawyer and the first attorney general for the state of Pennsylvania. He was also a member of the Continental Congress who attended the Federal Constitutional Convention and signed the United States Constitution. [1]
Early Life
Ingersoll was born in New Haven, Connecticut, on October 24, 1749. As a young man, he received a classical education, graduating from Yale College in 1766. Following graduation, he settled in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 1771. He studied law and was admitted to the bar in 1773; in 1774, he continued his legal studies at the Middle Temple in London, and then in Paris. He entered practice upon returning to Philadelphia in 1778.
Continental Congress and Constitutional Convention
Ingersoll was a member of the Continental Congress in 1780. Later, he was a delegate to the convention that framed the Federal Constitution in 1787, along with George Clymer, Thomas Fitzsimons, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Mifflin, Gouverneur Morris, Robert Morris, and James Wilson.
While he initially favored revision of the existing Articles of Confederation, he ultimately chose to support the creation of a new United States Constitution.
Later Political Service
Following his time in Congress, Ingersoll held many positions. He was the first attorney general of Pennsylvania from 1790-1799 and served again from 1811 to 1817. From 1800-1801, he served as United States district attorney for the eastern district of Pennsylvania. During this time, he played an important role in helping define the limits of the new government's power. Ingersoll represented the state of Georgia in the landmark Supreme Court case of Chisholm v. Georgia in 1793, arguing that a state should not be subject to suit from a citizen of another state. The Supreme Court ruled against him; however, their ruling was later rescinded by the Eleventh Amendment. Ingersol was also involved in the first legal challenge to the Constitutionality of an act of Congress; in Hylton v. the United States, he argued that the Federal government should not have the authority to tax carriages. [2]
Ingersoll unsuccessfully ran as a Federalist candidate for Vice President of the United States in 1812. In 1821, he became presiding judge of the district court of Philadelphia County, and remained in that position until his death.
Jared Ingersoll died in Philadelphia on October 31, 1822, and was buried in the First Presbyterian Church Cemetery.

Studios standing firm on DVD residuals payoffs
With negotiations starting next week, the PR battle between writers and studios has been triggered.Both sides began scrambling this week to portray themselves sympathetically, along with launching several well-aimed potshots at each other. Leaders of the Alliance of Motion Picture & Television Producers — the negotiating arm for studios and producers — plan to harp on a key message: They won't give any ground on writer residuals — especially in the booming DVD market — because of the difficulties they face in operating profitably amid fast-changing business conditions. "Residuals were created to allow the Guilds to share in the success, but what they're doing now is asking us to mortgage our future," one exec lamented. For its part, the Writers Guild of America West mailed out its first Negotiations Update on Tuesday with its lead story headlined "Don't Let Them Fool You." "On the eve of negotiations, it's not surprising to hear media moguls pleading poverty," the article began. "But don't be fooled. Despite what the congloms would have us believe, the overall revenue picture for the entertainment industry is remarkably good." Though neither side would disclose specifics until negotiations start Monday, both have started issuing numbers to make their case. In a move designed to advance the argument that scribes are already well-compensated, the AMPTP plans, for example, to release stats showing an average residual payment of $654,000 per movie to writers for each Motion Picture Assn. feature between 1996 and 2000. The $654,000 figure comes from adding up all revenue streams — DVD, video, free and pay TV and foreign — and not including bonuses. Additionally, the AMPTP plans to point out that some of those top performing pics generated over $3 million each in writer residuals. The core of the studios' argument is that DVD revenues — which amounted to $16.1 billion in 2003 and are certain to increase this year — are a necessity to stay afloat financially for the following reasons:
- Margins on filmmaking are in the 3% to 5% range and six of 10 films never recoup their costs.
- Costs of filmmaking have soared with average production rising 9% last year to $63.8 million per pic and P&A costs jumping 28% to $39 million.
- DVD costs have jumped, thanks to anti-piracy measures, expensive musical clearances and the inclusion of added features.
- Costs in other areas outside production, such as acquisition of scripts and talent participation, have soared to an average of another $60 million per pic.
- License fees for half-hour sitcoms and one-hour dramas have risen only nominally in the last five years while costs have soared. The average deficit on sitcoms is $350,000 per episode and $800,000 per episode on dramas.
- International revenues have slid due to the increased popularity of locally made shows.
- Only 12% to 15% of all shows ever wind up going into syndication, meaning that those shows must be the source for recoupment of the costs of the remaining shows.
- Networks are insisting on long-term contracts, beyond the standard four-year deal, and co-producing projects with suppliers, limiting the upside in syndication.
- Reality TV, which has little WGA coverage, is becoming entrenched on the skeds and may limit the resources that can be spent on traditional sitcoms and dramas.
- Though DVD revenues from TV shows are increasing, they have not made up for losses in international revenues.

With the record of Iowa's development along agricultural and horticultural lines, the name of Baruch Weston Jones is closely associated. In the later years of his life he made his home in Charles City, Iowa but had extensive farming interests near by. He was born in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin, September 20, 1850, and was there reared to manhood, attending the public schools. His parents were Isaac Crary and Maretta (Carpenter) Jones. His paternal grandparents were Denison and Hannah (Crary) Jones, the former born at Knox, Albany county, New York, November 10, 1794, and the latter at Stonington, Connecticut, September 23, 1794. The latter is a direct descendant of Peter Crary, who married Christobel Gallup, December 80, 1677; at Groton, Connecticut, and died in 1708. Peter Crary, Jr., who was baptized at Plainfield, Connecticut, April 23, 1682, married Ann Culver. Their son, Nathan Crary, born October 7, 1717, married Dorothy Wheeler, while Ruth Searl became his second wife. He died March 2l, 1798. Isaac Crary, the fourth child of Nathan and Dorothy (Wheeler) Crary, was born July 17, 1751, and wedded Mary Gallup, a daughter of Captain Joseph and Sarah (Gardiner) Gallup, on the 12th of November, 1775. Captain Gallup was a soldier of the Revolutionary war. He and his wife were married May 15, 1749, and had eleven children, the fourth of whom was Mary Gallup, called Molly, who was born July 5, 1756, and died May 17, 1827. She became the wife of Isaac Crary, and it was their daughter Hannah who became the wife of Denison Jones, and the grandmother of B. W. Jones of this review.

If I was a chick and went in for a job interview and found an office with only three dudes in it I would be suspicious. If I saw them just randomly tapping away on a keyboard, it would also cause me to have second thoughts. If in order to get the job, I had to suck and fuck them all until they shot loads all over my spectacles, I would really have to re-think things. Welcome, folks, to Creamed On Glasses.
The site is from the Czech Republic, but the scenes are in English (it isn't always the best English, but that makes the scenes a little more fun). CreamedOnGlasses has a mix of reality and scripted setups. However, since there is never an acknowledgment of the camera, I would say they lean toward the scripted.
Getting around the site isn't difficult. You arrive on the network's homepage and you just have to choose the proper site from a drop-down to get to all the right material. The rest of the sites in that list come as extras, but I'll get to those in a second. You'll notice two more dropdown lists that allow you to search by category and model and these work for the entire network.
There are 53 videos and 53 photo sets and the last of these scenes was posted back in June 2013, so it looks like they've stopped updating for good at this point. A few of the scenes stray from the site's theme and don't feature babes with glasses, but they're enjoyable all the same, because they still have chicks getting coated in creamy wads of cum.
The movies can be streamed in an embedded Silverlight player and downloaded as Windows Media files. You can enjoy them in their full-lengths and also as clips. The vids mostly offer good-quality playback, but the newer ones are more impressive and in HD. As for the high-res pics, they can often be downloaded in Zip files.
As I've mentioned, there are 12 additional sites and they're all part of the Pack Of Porn network. Rimbledon, Anal Slurp and Holey Fuck are just three of the ones you can check out. They are also relatively small content-wise, but they too have high-quality pics and vids.
Creamed On Glasses is worth visiting, but you'll only stay for a limited amount of time because the site isn't updating anymore. Then again, the bonus sites might be enough to convince you to hang around.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

Yesterday in a speech for the Media Access Project, Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Chief Diversity Officer Mark Lloyd claimed to refute numerous what he called "exaggerations and distortions" of a wide range of his thoughts, positions and policy prescriptions from what he called a "right-wing smear campaign." What Lloyd did was offer numerous falsehoods and denials about things that are undeniably true.
For example, Lloyd has insisted that a "right-wing smear campaign" was "distorting [his] views about the First Amendment" when in fact, in his 2006 book "Prologue to a Farce," Lloyd plainly made clear his view that the freedoms of speech and press were "all too often an exaggeration" and that "the purpose of free speech is warped to protect global corporations and block rules that would promote democratic governance."

In response to Lloyd's lies, Media Research Center President and NewsBusters Publisher Brent Bozell released a statement today [click here for the full press release]:

Why are Obama's leadership picks so incapable of telling the truth? It is not necessary for conservatives to 'distort' or 'smear' Mark Lloyd. All we have to do is quote him. When we do, he has public meltdowns with hysterical and dishonest accusations.

Mr. Lloyd, we're not going to stop talking about you or your record, using that media - the alternative media - you and your radical friends despise so much because you can't control it.

Breaking Bad's Anna Gunn To Guest On The Mindy Project
By Alicia Lutes 3 years ago comments
Skyler White is heading to New York City to hang out with Dr. Mindy Lahiri? Thats right you methheads, according to E!, Breaking Bad star Anna Gunn has prepared her first post-Heisenberg role and it is not at all what you were expecting, is it? Surely appearing as the idol of Mindy Kalings character on FOXs The Mindy Project was one of the last moves you saw coming admit it! But its another day, another guest star on the popular Tuesday comedy so why shouldnt Skyler get in on the feel-good funny action? After all, if you were the wife of a meth empire kingpin, flogged with a continual stream of depressing, anxiety-inducing, batshit crazy shenanigans in Albuquerque, wouldnt you want to tackle something at a slightly slower speed? Skyler deserves this! Good move, Skyler.
And Gunn also clearly deserves the positive attention (anything that isnt Walter White showing up in your apartment just off screen! causing grief and horror in his wake). The Emmy-winning actress will play Dr. Lahiri's professional crush, a sleek and sophisticated doctor by the name of Sheila Hamilton. Set to appear in the series 13th episode, Dr. Lahiris admirations are apparently mutual, as the Tory Burch of Manhattan OB/GYNs (Lahiris words) seems to have eyes for Mindy as well.
Professionally, of course: its always important to keep things above board when the medical board is involved, natch. Still, its hard to imagine what could possibly keep Mindy from accepting an offer of employment from the hip doc, as Dr. Hamilton seems to be living Dr. Lahiris dream, what with her high-profile clientele of rich and famous pregnant New Yorkers. What sort of hijinks will ensue to ensure that this oh-you-fancy lady doctor doesnt get pulled away from the likes of Dr. Danny Castellano (Chris Messina), Dr. Jeremy Reed (Ed Weeks), and newly-ensconced Dartmouth bro-doctor Peter Prentiss (Adam Pally)?
Regardless, Gunns appearance on the sitcom will surely bring a new audience to the show (Whats the over-under on fans of both Breaking Bad and The Mindy Project you think?) and a welcome respite for the actress, who previously told the Chicago Sun-Times that she would like to do a comedy Its been quite a lot of heavy, intense drama for a long time. Surely The Mindy Projects ample use of Breaking Bad references (Mindy's now-ex boyfriend Jason (Ben Feldman) was an arts and culture writer with the distinction of being maybe the only writer on the planet to pen a negative review of the show) helped matters.
But Gunn is hardly the first guest star on the series in fact the show has made booking familiar famous faces as its bread and butter. Outside of the aforementioned Feldman and Pall, James Franco got in on the guesting duties (when he wasnt going to one of his 87 different college classes or whatever). As has Anders Holm, The Duplass Brothers, Rob McElhenney, Timothy Olyphant, and a million people from Saturday Night Live and Kalings original TV home, The Office. Now we just have to sit back and wait to see if we get some roof pizza or not.
The Mindy Project airs Tuesdays at 9:30 PM ET/PT on FOX.

Two American indies and three films from Portuguese filmmakers were atop a list that may become more significant in the next decade as the definition of 'distribution' continues to change.
Writer/director Harmony Korine's "Trash Humpers," from the Toronto and New York fests, was named Best Undistributed Film of 2009 by indieWIRE's annual critics poll published Tuesday with over 100 critics and bloggers participating. Portuguese director Jao Pedro Rodrigues' "To Die Like a Man" (Morrer Como Um Homem), which debuted earlier this year at the Cannes and Toronto International Film Festivals placed second in the poll, which named 200 titles currently without U.S. distribution as of December 1, 2009.
One film that is still included in the list, Erik Gandini's "Videocracy," announced a U.S. deal on December 21st with Lorber Films, but it will remain in this year's list since voting had taken place prior to its acquisition.
Rounding out the top of the list were Portuguese director Manoel de Oliveira's "Eccentricities of a Blond Hair Girl" (Singularidades de uma Rapariga Loura), which debuted at the 2009 Berlinale as well as in Toronto; the debut directorial effort of the U.S.'s Damien Chazelle's Tribeca 2009 feature, "Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench," which received a Gotham Awards nomination for "Best Film Not Playing at a Theater Near You"; and Portuguese director Pedro Costa's "Ne change rien" - also a Cannes debut. "Humpers," "Man" and "Eccentricities" each had their U.S. debuts at the New York Film Festival in Autumn and ranked one, two and three respectively in the Best Undistributed list (with "Madeline" and "Rien" tying for third.
"I was inspired by the idea of finding an artifact found in an attic or a videotape buried in a ditch," "Trash Humpers" director Harmony Korine told indieWIRE in Toronto. "I wanted to create something that was more like a feeling. I had to close my eyes and allow myself to get to a place where I could tap into ideas and images." "Trash Humpers" employs "creepy masks, low-grade torture, frequent public urination, senseless vandalism and the title, acted out on defenseless garbage cans," according to a Toronto fest description of the film, which - not surprisingly perhaps - polarized audiences with ardent admirers and vocal critics. The "Gummo" director's previous film, "Mister Lonely" (2007) received numerous festival awards and found distribution Stateside via IFC Films. The film went on to make nearly $170,000 in its domestic theatrical release.
This year's runner up "To Die Like a Man" is the biography of a transvestite who tries to erase her past history as a male. She watches as her world around her crumbles and struggles with her own religious convictions. 101 year-old director Manoel de Oliveira's "Eccentricities," meanwhile centers on a young man who falls helplessly in love with a mysterious blond woman who turns his life upside down. "Madeline" is described by its website as an "often uneasy but always beautiful relationship between music and love. It tells the story of a young Boston jazz musician who drifts from affair to affair, his trumpet the only constant in his life." Directors Fortnight entry "Ne change rien" is described by Reverse Shot's Damon Smith as " cinematic offering laid at the feet of its bewitching singer-star, Jeanne Balibar." Balibar sings in rehearsal recordings, rock concerts, club settings with a black and white look at an of an artist as she rehearses and finds her way into song after song with her accompanying musicians.
The five films that placed in the top three (again with three titles tying for third place) each received at least ten per cent of the mentions in the critics score with 11 mentions for "Eccentricities," "Madeline" and "Rien." "To Die Like a Man" took 18 mentions, while "Humpers" received 21 - nearly 20% of all participating critics in The list of the Best Undistributed Films.
indieWIRE had included additional titles in the survey initially including "City Island," which is being released by Anchor Bay, "The Girl on the Train" and "Toe to Toe," which went to Strand Releasing as well as "Air Doll" and "Accident," which will both be released by Palisades Tartan. Also removed was "Ajami," which received a distribution deal via Kino International.
Going forward, it may be interesting to note the relevance of the Best Undistributed List as the convergence of technology and economic realities make it more likely for filmmakers will opt for a DIY approach. Festivals will also figure more prominently in distribution strategies some insiders have contemplated. In a First Person article written for indieWIRE earlier this week, veteran entertainment lawyer Steven C. Beer commented, "For many independent filmmakers and producers, 2010 - starting with the upcoming Sundance Film Festival - figures to be a watershed year and the beginning of a Decade of Filmmaker Empowerment. After years of disenchantment with traditional all-rights distribution deals, filmmakers and producers are poised to take matters into their own hands and forge a truly independent path to marketing and distributing their films."
Indeed, subsequent indieWIRE Top Tens may include undistributed films in the "Best Film" list, perhaps even making "Best Undistributed Film" seem redundant. We shall see.
The Results of the iW 2009 Critics Survey:
Best Film of '09 | Best Film of the Decade | Best Lead Performance | Best Supporting Performance | Best Director | Best Documentary | Best Screenplay | Best First Feature | Best Undistributed Film

Works Well
This review is from: Vonnic VCB104B 480 TV Lines MAX Resolution Outdoor Night Vision Bullet Camera - Black
Pros: Good night performance. Crisp images. Appears very solidly built.
Cons: Color rendition poor, as it is with most under $100 cameras.
Other Thoughts: This works better than another vonnic camera that costs $20 more and supposedly has 680 TVL. I learned the hard way to follow reviews and NOT the stats the Chinese put out.

Hopefully this will be a quick one. On our Zimbra install (ZCS 8.0.6 NE) our full backup runs and takes in the hours to execute. Based on our mailstore sizes this is not all that surprising. When our incremental backup runs through the week this takes less than a minute. There are no errors shown in the backup report or the admin GUI.
Is that normal for an incremental backup for Zimbra? It seems a bit quick from what I am used to based on other products and backup but wanted to confirm.

CHICAGO (AP) — The original version of "Come With Me Now" by Kongos was more of a bluegrass song, according to bassist Dylan Kongos.
He says there also was a long bridge that keyboardist Johnny Kongos took out and used in the song "Take Me Back."
That's not the only song that needed time to evolve. Drummer Jesse Kongos says he struggled for years with the lyrics to their new single, "I'm Only Joking." The African drums were only a small part of that song, too. Jesse Kongos says their mother came into the studio and said, "I want to hear those drums the whole song," so they tried it and did it her way.
