Joint Forum Release of Review of the Differentiated Nature and Scope of Financial Regulation
The Joint Forum today released its report, Review of the Differentiated Nature and Scope of Financial Regulation – Key Issues and Recommendations.
"This paper takes a focused look at certain regulatory gaps that became apparent during the crisis," Comptroller John C Dugan, and retiring Chair of the Joint Forum said. "There are some key recommendations in this report that, once implemented, will reduce those gaps and strengthen regulation of the financial system. Consistency in regulation and similar supervision for similar activities are key principles for effective oversight of systemic risks. This report sets the stage for additional important work that will lead to greater convergence of the supervision of financial activities and firms."
The report's recommendations address five key areas: differences in regulation across the banking, insurance and securities sectors; supervision and regulation of financial groups; hedge funds; credit default swaps and financial guaranty insurance; and minimum underwriting standards for residential mortgages.
"The recommendations on mortgage underwriting practices address an important area that has received surprisingly little attention, given that such practices sparked the global financial crisis," Mr. Dugan said. "These recommendations are focused on minimum underwriting standards, consistently implemented by all types of mortgage providers – whether or not currently regulated – while also acknowledging that each country's mortgage market is unique. In recognition of national differences and to promote transparency, the recommendations propose review and disclosure of mortgage underwriting practices for each country, a practice that currently does not exist on a global basis."
This report was requested by the G20 through the Financial Stability Board. It analyzes key issues arising from the differentiated nature of financial regulation in the international banking, securities, and insurance sectors. It also addresses gaps arising from the scope of regulation as it relates to different financial activities, with a particular focus on certain unregulated or lightly regulated entities or activities. The objectives of the review were to identify potential areas where systemic risks may not be fully captured in the current regulatory framework and to make recommendations on needed improvements to strengthen regulation of the financial system.
The paper is available on the Web sites of the Bank for International Settlements (
The Joint Forum was established in 1996 under the aegis of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, IOSCO, and the IAIS to deal with issues common to the banking, securities, and insurance sectors, including the supervision of financial conglomerates. Comptroller of the Currency John C. Dugan served as Chairman from September 2007 to December 2009.

So Jewish Care arrange a live debate for local candidates but questions must be submitted in advance. Why is that may I ask. Is this a national debate on prime time TV where questions must be vetted because time is at a premium and cranks must be excluded? Or is this a local debate for local issues where apart from the candidates all the smarmy machers who can't resist the allure of a lens and a notebook are guaranteed to show up to hold our hands and keep our mouths shut when we're in view of their prized contacts and networked pals?
Jewish Care, if you and those behind this event think we can't be trusted in the presence of your imaginary high society then pack your bags and take some of our odious bearded bigwigs with you.
And Diane Abbott, Keith Angus and Darren Caplan, if you want to hold a debate then I'm all for it so long that you throw yourselves open to questions from all voters and not just to questions vetted by Jewish Care or some other unelected 'court Jews' controlling our access to their deluded power bases.

Cannabis Catch-All?
Researchers in the U.K. are looking to breed marijuana to make medicines for metabolic disorders, epilepsy, and other diseases.
Jun 20, 2012
Jef Akst
GW Pharmaceuticals—the United Kingdom's only legal cannabis production facility—is already developing Sativex, a drug consisting of two principal cannabinoids (THC and CBD). Sativex is currently in Phase III trials for treating muscle spasticity in multiple sclerosis patients. But GW's researchers are also studying how marijuana derivatives could be used to treat a much wider range of diseases, including metabolic disorders, epilepsy, ulcerative colitis, psychosis, brain injury, and cancer pain.
"As rigorous modern research with cannabinoids comes to fruition, a new era of treatment options may have arrived," David Potter, director of Botanical Research and Cultivation at GW Pharmaceuticals who wrote about the company's efforts this week (June 11) in The Biologist, said in a press release.
GW's strategy is to breed cannabis plants that produce varying levels of natural cannabinoids. Among the plants the team has bred are those with high levels of THCV, a cannabinoid that is structurally similar to THC, but is normally present only in low quantities. There is evidence that THCV regulates a variety of metabolic functions, including lipid deposition, cellular energy expenditure, and insulin resistance, and company researchers are hopeful it will prove an effective treatment against type II diabetes.
Stay tuned for our July feature on alternative medicines to learn more about the potential uses of medical marijuana that are being investigated, as well as the legitimacy of other non-traditional treatments, including acupuncture, probiotics, and psychedelics.

With the calendar soon flipping to 2014, market experts share their thoughts on what factors could be game-changers for grain prices.
Volatility seems to be the new normal for the corn and soybean prices. The last few years have brought us record-high prices, unbalance between supply and demand, as well as horrible weather challenges.
So, what will be in store for 2014? Several market experts have weighed in add their predictions (in no particular order) are below. These comments are experts from a recent Top Producer article that features analysis and commentary from 15 ag market analysts. Read the full article: They Say It's a Bear Market
Game-Changer #1: Ethanol / Biofuel Usage
On Nov. 15, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency released a proposal about Renewable Fuels Standard. EPA proposed a range of 15 billion to 15.52 billion gallons of renewable fuel in 2014. That range for fuels such as corn-based ethanol and biodiesel compares to a quota in 2007 legislation that called for 18.15 billion gallons. While it is only a proposal, it does seem to signal a change for the future of the ethanol industry.
Brian Basting of Advance Trading says if this proposed change occurs, it will be bearish for corn.
Alan Brugler of Brugler Marketing, agrees. "The black swan event I fear most is the attempt to limit the use of biofuels," he says.
Game-Changer #2: China
What a country of more than 1.5 billion people eats has huge implications for the U.S. Sue Martin of Ag and Investments Services, says we should never underestimate China's ability to buy corn, soybeans and other crops. "This could be one of the surprises for 2014," she says.
Brian Basting of Advance Trading, agrees. He says China's imports and production levels in 2014 are a potential market surprise.
Game-Changer #3: South America
South America is now a powerhouse, in terms of corn and soybean production. Mike North of First Capital Ag, says U.S. farmers should keep close tabs on the country's growing season.
"The plot has thickened for soybeans with a slow start to South American planting and tight domestic balance sheets," he says. "The story's climax will occur once a firm grasp of the South American crop is firmly quantifiable. Adding more beans to the world supply will take away premiums, but a short crop in South America will present pricing opportunities. With more soybeans to be planted by U.S. producers, planting season only adds greater price risk."
Game-Changer #4: U.S. Economy
While there have been some positive signs, it's hard to know at what point the U.S. economy is at on the road to recovery. Add to that the government's unrest and unknowns. It's pretty easy to label what's happening in Washington as white noise, but Mike Florez of Florez Trading suggests keeping tabs.
"Don't forget about what's going on in Washington," he says. "If the world loses faith in the dollar, watch what happens to commodity prices."
Game-Changer #5: Massive 2014 Crops
Kevin Van Trump of Farm Direction, says USDA's Agricultural Outlook Forum in February will be one to remember and look to for market clues. "With the harvest of a new record corn crop and prospects of another massive crop behind it, USDA's Agricultural Outlook could paint one of the most bearish price pictures we've seen in years," he says.
If producers follow suit and aggressively plant more soybean acres, he says prices could hit longer-term pressure. "If weather cooperates in South America and in the U.S., we might see global supplies quickly overwhelm demand. By mid-2014, the downside could be more extreme than many forecast."
Game-Changer #6: Weather
As always, weather conditions will have a huge impact on if prices tank or surge.
Bill Biedermann of Allendale says barring a major weather event, prices should bottom out at sub-$4 per bushel corn and sub-$11 soybeans.
Dustin Johnson of EHedger, agrees. "Cash corn will likely hit $3.50 in the first half of 2014, barring major weather or geopolitical concerns," he says.

Background and purpose: The identification of potent and selective radioligands for the mapping of 5-HT receptors is interesting both for clinical and experimental research. The aim of this study was to compare the potency of a new putative 5-HT1A receptor antagonist, p-DMPPF, (4-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1-[2'-[N-(2''-pyridinyl)-p-fluorobenzamido]-ethyl] piperazine) with that of the well-known 5-HT1A antagonists, WAY-100635(N-[2-[4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]-ethyl]-N-(2-pyridinyl) cyclohexanecarboxamide) and its fluorobenzoyl analogue, p-MPPF (4-(2-methoxyphenyl)-1-[2'-[N-(2''-pyridinyl)p-fluorobenzamido] ethyl] piperazine). Experimental approach: Single cell extracellular recordings of dorsal raphe (DR) neurones were performed in rat brain slices. The potency of each compound at antagonizing the effect of the 5-HT1A agonist, 8-OH-DPAT [8-hydroxy-2-(di-npropylamino)tetraline], was quantified using the Schild equation. The pharmacological profile of p-DMPPF was defined using competition binding assays. Key results: Consistently with a 5-HT1A receptor antagonist profile, incubation of slices with an equimolar (10 nM) concentration of each compound markedly reduced the inhibitory effect of 8-OH-DPAT on the firing rate of DR neurones, causing a significant rightward shift in its concentration-response curve. The rank order of potency of the antagonists was WAY-100635 > p-DMPPF >= p-MPPF. The sensitivity of DR neurones to the inhibitory effect of 8-OH-DPAT was found to be heterogeneous. The binding experiments demonstrated that p-DMPPF is highly selective for 5-HT1A receptors, with a K-i value of 7 nM on these receptors. Conclusions and implications: The potency of the new compound, p-DMPPF, as a 5-HT1A antagonist is similar to that of p-MPPF in our electrophysiological assay. Its selectivity towards 5-HT1A receptors makes it a good candidate for clinical development. [less ▲]Detailed reference viewed: 69 (34 ULiège)

- —Draco Malfoy taunts Harry Potter about the Slytherins' song[src]
"Weasley is Our King" was a song composed by Slytherin students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1995 to mock Gryffindor Keeper Ron Weasley's abilities and thus undermine his confidence, claiming him as their "King" because his allegedly poor Keeping skills would supposedly win the game for them. It was later modified by the Gryffindor Quidditch team to increase Ron's confidence, and he started to let in less goals during the final match. This made the Gryffindor team claim Ron as their "King" to thank him for helping them win the cup.
Though it is unknown who actually composed the song the song seemed to have been composed by Draco Malfoy and possibly Pansy Parkinson but since they directed their fellow Slytherin in singing it in a choir at Quidditch matches, it is likely that they did. As part of the campaign, the song was created with an accompanying badge, which was worn by nearly all of the Slytherins.
Every time the Slytherins would sing this song, Ron would become humiliated by the taunting, lose his confidence, and let in the goals and help the other team win (hence, the Slytherins are saying that he is their "king" by making sure they win). The first time the Slytherins sang this song, Malfoy taunted fellow Seeker Harry Potter about it, eventually encompassing the Weasley family and Harry's mother into his insults, starting a fight that resulted in Harry and Fred and George Weasley being kicked off the Quidditch team by Dolores Umbridge, taking their brooms, and more detention (although their bans were all lifted once Umbridge was removed from Hogwarts).
When walking to Hagrid's hut during the 1995–1996 school year, Harry, Ron, and Hermione overheard Nearly Headless Nick humming the tune to himself, as it was catchy. Later in the year, Luna Lovegood was heard singing it to herself under her breath as she stirred her drink in the Three Broomsticks. In the final game of the Quidditch Cup, Ron's confidence increased and he performed much better, leading the Gryffindors to take over singing the song, reversing the lyrics to say positive things about Ron instead.
Ginny Weasley and Luna Lovegood used it on June 18 1996 to alert Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley when Dolores Umbridge was coming, as they were using her fireplace to attempt to contact Sirius Black, although Umbridge caught them regardless.
The Gryffindors sang their version of the song again during the match between Gryffindor and Slytherin in the 1996-1997 school year when Ron did not let the Slytherins score a single goal. Ron even pretended to conduct the crowd from his broom.
Weasley cannot save a thing, GG GG G G G
He cannot block a single ring, C CC C CC C
That's why Slytherins all sing: D D DDD D D

The Gryffindor team eventually revised the lyrics and reversed their meaning to be more complimentary after they won the Quidditch Cup. In this, the "Weasley is our King" part is not cruel sarcasm but genuinely thanking Ron for helping them win the Cup.

Guns N' Roses star Duff McKagan's wife has won a restraining order against a man who traveled from Arizona to their Los Angeles home last week.
Susan Holmes-McKagan applied for the temporary ban against Story Walker Bannister after the 21-year-old allegedly turned up at her house in California while she was away with the bassist.
Holmes-McKagan's mother was babysitting the couple's two teenage daughters at the time, and Bannister is said to have demanded to see her "daughter," although it is unclear who he was referring to.
According to TMZ.com, Bannister travelled from Phoenix to the McKagans' California home and refused to leave, insisting it was "destiny" that brought him to the property. Holmes-McKagan's mother then phoned police, who took Bannister away for a psychological evaluation.
He has been ordered to stay at least 100 yards away from the McKagan family, while a hearing is scheduled for July to determine whether the restraining order should be made permanent.

The RER Innovative Product Award was established in 2003 to honor excellence in new product development in the equipment rental industry. This year the awards showcase the most innovative products introduced between Aug. 1, 2007 and July 31, 2008.
Grand Winner
A panel of nine industry experts was selected to narrow the pool of entries to one winner in each of the 13 categories. The panelists were asked to refrain from voting in categories in which they had any partial interest. Then the panelists selected the product they felt was the most innovative in respect to the rental business from the 13 category winners. One product was named the Grand Award Winner with an overwhelming majority of the votes.
Thanks to all of the companies that entered products in this year's Innovative Product Award competition. Following are the grand winner and the products that won their respective categories. All non-winning entries will be featured in the January and February 2009 issues of RER. For additional information on the Innovative Product Award winners and the panel of judges, visit www.rermag.com.
Lifts Category Winner
JLG Industries, McConnellsburg, Pa.
Key Innovation: The first personal and portable aerial work platform on the market to replace the ladder.
For any company that rents out aerial equipment as large as an articulating boom or as small as a 6-foot ladder, safety is always a top priority. Customers want to know they are getting a productive and time-saving unit, while rental companies want to make sure the lifting equipment is being used properly and in a safe manner to avoid injuries to the operator. The Grand Winner of this year's RER Innovative Product Award, the LiftPod from JLG Industries, meets both rental company and customer expectations by providing safety and time-saving productivity in one unit.
The LiftPod is the first personal and portable aerial work platform on the market to combine the portability of a ladder with the stability of a work platform. It is powered with any common 18-volt drill or with an optional power pack. Its enclosed basket gives workers a 360-degree range of motion at a 14-foot working height. An attachable work tray stores users' tools and materials, allowing them to work with both hands.
At 145 pounds (not including the power pack), the LiftPod's lightweight design and compact size allow for ease of movement around the jobsite on its non-marking polyurethane wheels. One person can assemble or disassemble it in less than 30 seconds. When disassembled, the LiftPod can be transported site-to-site in the back of a pick-up truck, van or SUV. It consists of three main sections: the base, the mast and carriage, and the platform. The heavy-duty, powder-coated, steel base weighs 63 pounds. Its castor mechanism locks when the LiftPod is in use and provides mobility when it is set up. The mast weighs 49 pounds and consists of aircraft-quality aluminum, while the platform weighs 33 pounds and has a capacity of 330 pounds at maximum elevation.
"The LiftPod's creation involved a collaboration of efforts — which included the product's physical development, market research and testing — in Australia, followed by additional testing and final development by JLG in the United States," says Jeff Ford, senior manager of marketing communications for JLG Industries. "The LiftPod was initially introduced to the Australian market in 2007, where it won a WorkCover New South Wales Safe Work Award for 'Best Solution to an Identified Workplace Health and Safety Issue.' The unit was introduced to the U.S. market in 2008."
According to JLG, the LiftPod has seen early success in a number of applications, including lighting maintenance, facility maintenance, equipment repair and maintenance, and glass-replacement jobs for business and large vehicles. The LiftPod is also designed for several other applications, such as HVAC installation and maintenance, storage access, signage installation, siding repairs and installation, painting, cleaning, product stocking and removal, security system maintenance, decorating, window washing, and plant and floral care.
Because of its lightweight design, the LiftPod can be used in commercial office buildings, retail stores, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, shopping malls, schools and universities. It also can be utilized in hospitals, government buildings, apartment buildings and condominiums, hotels and resorts, convention centers, stadiums and parking ramps.
"The LiftPod is 25-percent the weight of traditional lifts, making it less cumbersome, particularly when used in small work areas," says Ford. "More importantly, the LiftPod offers the stability and comfort not always found in ladders, allowing users to securely work with both hands while having easy access to their tools and materials."
Trials down under
Initially, the LiftPod was introduced to the Australian market where it was used and tested in various industries before it was brought to the United States. These Australian companies were on the hunt for an alternative to ladders and other lifting equipment to meet their safety and productivity needs.
One such company, O'Brien Glass Industries Limited in Newcastle, Australia, employs glaziers, or glass replacement specialists, that often need to work on homes, businesses or large vehicles at heights of up to 14 feet. However, because of Australian regulations requiring bulky harnesses when working at heights above two meters (or just over 6 feet, 6 inches), the safety committee at O'Brien needed to find an alternative to ladders that would safely allow glaziers freedom of motion and the ability to use both hands to more efficiently — and safely — complete their work.
Initially, the glaziers from O'Brien intended to use the LiftPod for replacement work at business and residential jobsites. A recent project at a commercial office work site required that all of the rubber gaskets used to seal the windows be replaced on the first floor. Had they chose to use a ladder, the glaziers would have been required to keep three limbs on the ladder at all times and wear a harness, significantly increasing the time it took to complete the task and limiting the glaziers' range of motion. Instead, the workers from O'Brien opted to use the LiftPod, which gave them 360-degree access to the job and the freedom to use both hands.
Cliff Meecham, manager of the Newcastle area for O'Brien, and his team of glaziers soon identified other opportunities to use the LiftPod as well. For example, they discovered that the LiftPod was well-suited for windscreen replacements on large trucks and buses. The small base fit perfectly underneath the front of the vehicle, allowing workers closer access to their work than with a ladder. The LiftPod also helped keep downtime on a vehicle to a minimum. The workers could bring the LiftPod with them to body shops where vehicles were already being serviced and perform the windscreen replacement simultaneously, cutting down on service time on the vehicle.
"There was some resistance at first," says Meecham. "Some of my employees have been using ladders for more than 25 years. But as soon as they saw how easy the LiftPod was to move around worksites and how much more quickly they were able to complete a job, they were sold."
Brookfield Multiplex, a Brisbane, Australia-based property and funds management business that provides facility management and maintenance services at its Qantas heavy-maintenance hangar at Australia's Brisbane Airport, needed a way to cut down on the time spent on day-to-day lighting maintenance and improve employee safety. Using ladders and scissorlifts in the hangar meant that employees were often making repeated up-and-down trips on ladders, costing them valuable time and increasing the risk of injury.
Alan Berrie, the facilities supervisor at the hangar who is responsible for on-site occupational health and safety, decided to have his employees try the LiftPod on a relamping project in the facility's dining hall as a safer alternative to ladders.
"Had they used ladders, my workers would have spent time constantly maneuvering them around the site and making repeated climbs up and down them to complete the project," says Berrie. "Instead, the LiftPod provided a lightweight and compact design that allowed them to quickly and easily move it around the work site on its wheels."
The workers also made use of the LiftPod's work tray to hold tools and materials, which allowed them to focus on the task at hand and not have to worry about their stability. The LiftPod has also seen use on a daily basis in the hangar's workshops and other high-ceiling access areas. In addition to the lighting maintenance, Berrie said Brookfield Multiplex manages another nearby commercial facility that he feels could use a LiftPod for several applications, including signage installation and small building repairs.
Aaron Malouf, asset manager at the Pacific Square Maroubra complex in Sydney, Australia, was looking to address risk management in his multi-use building. While budget was an issue, he specifically wanted a hydraulic or mechanized device to replace ladders because of safety concerns. Workers have a number of maintenance duties throughout the building that involve working at a higher level, and they needed something to provide stability at varying heights.
Malouf and his team looked at several possible devices but found most of them to be too large or heavy. When they tried the LiftPod, they found it to be lightweight, portable and affordable, while giving them the access they needed. With the 14-foot working height, workers had the reach they needed in most areas of the facility. The company was also impressed with the LiftPod's ease of movement and with how quickly it could be assembled. "It is one of the best decisions we have made," says Malouf.

The knee will be the focus of the next address in the Distinguished Lecture Series in Sports Medicine at Hope College.
Dr. Thomas Matelic of Orthopaedic Associates of Grand Rapids will present "Patello-femoral Instability: Evaluation and Treatment" on Monday, March 1, at 7 p.m. at the MaasCenter.
The public is invited. Admission is free.
"Patellofemoral Instability" involves the patella--the kneecap--moving from its normal location in a groove at the base of the upper leg bone, or femur. Matelic will describe the normal anatomy and stability of the patellofemoral joint, illustrate the forces that result in instability of the patella, and explain techniques to restore the stability of the patella once the system is disrupted.
Matelic has been in private practice with Orthopaedic Associates of Grand Rapids since 1995, and is also an assistant clinic professor with the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. He has had articles in publications including "The Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma," "The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery," "The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery," and the "Journal of Orthopaedic Techniques," and has made numerous presentations concerning orthopaedics, including previously through the college's Distinguished Lecture Series in Sports Medicine. He has also previously served as a clinical instructor/lecturer with GrandValleyStateUniversity's physician assistant program, and as a clinical instructor in orthopaedic surgery with the Wayne State University School of Medicine.
He earned his undergraduate degree from PrincetonUniversity and his medical degree from the Wayne State University School of Medicine. He subsequently completed his internship, residency and a fellowship at Wayne State University.
The Distinguished Lecture Series in Sports Medicine is designed for health care professionals with an interest in physically active patients, and is intended for students, educators and clinicians alike. It is co-sponsored by Orthopaedic Associates of Michigan, Shoreline Orthopaedics, Holland Hospital Rehabilitation Services and the college.

Battle Plates of Ragnablok
|The Battle Plates of Ragnablok
|Alternate Pocket Dimension
|Conditionally Infinite
|Key Resources
|Spoils of War
|Controlled By
Current Lords of Battle
|Warriors and Fodder
Creatures and Monsters
Gods and Goddesses
Heroes and SigFigs
The Valkyrie
|Key Locations
|Famous Battle Sites
The Battle Plates of Ragnablok are a proving grounds of eternal, glorious war. Many minifigs dedicate their whole violent lives to be worthy enough to enter the Plates and do battle there forevermore. They are also the final destination for all lost minifigs, a sort of afterlife for a race of creatures without one. The fields of war, stud splattered and reeking of melting ABS, are their homes now and they must choose to follow the righteous path to heroism or be ground down as cannon fodder for superior boots to tread upon.
Battle Plates of Ragnablok Characteristics
The Leaderboard
Though, in the eyes of BrikVerse inhabitants, war is its own reward, the Plates of Ragnablok exist on a higher level of existence. Battle may be had in the RealVerse, whenever and however those with the appropriate violent tendencies dictate. It may be glorious or not, exciting or not. Ragnablok, however, represents the ideal of combat. The Plates inspire the perfection of conflict and, as such, reward those true heroes who personify its Plate-onic ideal. Whenever a Hero accomplishes some great deed, news of her prowess is transmitted throughout the entire dimension. Records are kept of these deeds and warriors can earn Reputation throughout the realm. Higher levels of Reputation entitle warlords to greater and greater rewards, chosen from a cache of options presented her. These may be larger armies of Spawners, elite squads of death dealers, magic spells, tactical advantages, enhanced weaponry and equipment, vehicles ranging from carts to starships, and a whole host of other prestigious items, baubles, advantages, and personnel. The top level Lords of Battle are virtually gods in their own right and choose from reality shaping powers for their rewards. Taking on warriors with higher Reputation nets the challenger more Reputation of his own and thus the grindfest is perpetuated ad infinitum.
Time and Space
While time does progress normally in the Battle Plates, it does so only to chronologically order the conflict. That being said, the powers of certain Lords often overwrites or rewrites timelines so battles may not always proceed according to order, as well they shouldn't. The Plates themselves seem to favor this approach, so there are vast swaths of space where time has little to no meaning and other swaths where time is absolutely critical. Essentially, in the Battle Plates of Ragnablok, Time as a concept is reduced to little more than a tactical consideration much like everything else. Some insist that the battles taking place in the realm will eventually congeal into a single massive battle headed by all the Lords of Battle and that this final battle will bring about the end of time and existence as we know it. So far, though, the battles keep recycling themselves and the dimension always appears renewed.
The Battle Plates extend in all directions, conditionally forever. That is, the Plates are finite with borders and are filled to capacity with combatants. However, they have the ability to expand exponentially infinitely. Whenever more room is needed to make war, more room is made and the space filled.
The Doom of the Weak
Not every minifig is good at combat; some warriors will always be better at it than others. It's a sad fact of life in the BrikVerse. Some minifigs are broken, unable to enjoy conflict or seeking to avoid it. Still others may be shunted in from outside BrikSpace, possibly from one of the other verses in the Legitimitium MultiVerse, and may not have been born or bred to battle like their planar cousins. Well, weapons and terrain have to come from somewhere. Minifigs who do not perform well enough in the fields find themselves literally ground down to be the briks warriors stand upon, the rifles in their hands, and the armor on their backs. Whole capital ships in the Battle Plates of Ragnablok are constructed from the silently screaming remolded bodies of the inept.
Battle Plates of Ragnablok Inhabitants
More than just warriors and cannon fodder inhabit the neverending fields of bloodshed. Various and sundry creatures and monsters, some cloned from other dimensions and multiverses and some actually from other planes of existence, roam the Plates. Gods and goddesses and the gender neutral versions of deities live or work there. Sometimes, the epic heroes whose deeds have become famous in the entertainment networks of the Far-Ums retire here. The Battle Plates are home to anyone with a lust for fighting and the will to get there...or the misfortune to arrive there.
Battle Plates of Ragnablok Connections
The Battle Plates of Ragnablok exist inside their own pocket dimension. There are no natural, recurring connections to other planes of existence so travelers must forge the connection themselves. On occasion, the Plates themselves will pluck a lucky warrior from a RealVerse and deposit him in the midst of a truly epic battle there. There are even rumors of Valkyries employed by the Plates, or whatever mysterious masters are in charge of the Plates, to retrieve special warriors from the BrikVerse personally. This is considered a rare honor and, putting aside the staggering Reputation rewards he gains, the warrior earns the undying respect and admiration from his fellow contenders.
Many BrikVerse inhabitants have tried to force their way into the Plates, even some Humans, but this has been largely unsuccessful mainly due to a proper lack of transportation or proper maturity. There have even been schemes involving time travel, but the Gates that lead to the Battle Plates of Ragnablok are barred to all but the worthy or the useful.
Notable Battle Plates of Ragnablok Characters and Locations
The list of notables in the Plates is expanding all the time. See "The Leaderboard," above.
Several deities are also known to cut a bloody path through the dimension from time to time.
Celebrities of the Far-Ums sometimes retire to or visit the Plates.

Tough Day Out at Coles Sports Center
NEW YORK — It was a tough day out for the Yale women's fencing team, which fought its way through the Jan. 22 NYU Invitational at the Coles Sports Center in New York to end Sunday with a 1-4 split, matching last year's record.
"No matter what, we'll work hard to improve upon our past performances," said junior captain Robyn Shaffer.
The day opened with a 22-5 loss to Notre Dame, coupled with a 22-5 defeat at the hands of Northwestern. But the Bulldogs bounced back strongly, contending against Wayne State in diligent fashion to end victorious, 17-10.
Then, the Yale team lost a closely fought match against NYU, 14-13.
"The close fall to NYU was heartbreaking, as the entire team strived to overcome a few early losses," Shaffer said. "We had the energy and the commitment, but ultimately couldn't pull through with a victory."
After lunch, the Bulldogs fell to Ohio State 20-7, rounding out the day's competition. Although Sunday provide to be a difficult day of fencing for the Yale team, they are looking ahead to the next week's competition, when they will host Sacred Heart at home.
"We're taking the lessons learned at NYU and putting them towards our next two meets: Sacred Heart and Vassar, both home at Yale," Shaffer said. "Come and watch us!"

AdaCore has announced the availability of GNAT Pro for RTX, an Ada IDE that lets programmers produce real-time Ada applications on Windows. GNAT Pro for RTX supports two different modes: a Windows executable with memory protection, and a real-time subsystem that executes in kernel mode with hard, real-time behavior. This enhanced control and scalability helps simplify development of critical applications, including industrial automation, aerospace, and military systems.
"Ada and AdaCore have a well-deserved reputation for excellence in the real-time domain," said Jeffrey Hibbard, who heads the Embedded Group for Ardence. "We are pleased that GNAT Pro is available on RTX, allowing customers to reap the productivity benefits that come from Ada's modern features and AdaCore's front-line support." RTX software from Ardence lets Windows systems deliver hard, real-time performance. As a true extension, it does not interfere with or modify the Windows infrastructure. Developers can create user interfaces and applications that take advantage of all the functionality offered by Windows. A component that requires real-time control can first be developed and debugged as a Windows application and then recompiled as a real-time subsystem with no code changes.
"This new RTX port stems from customer requests for an Ada development environment that takes advantage of all the functionality of RTX without requiring a rewrite of their code," added said Jose Ruiz, AdaCore senior software engineer. "GNAT Pro for RTX allows our customers to take Windows applications, recompile them unchanged, and get predictable, hard real-time behavior without interference from the underlying Windows Operating System."
GNAT Pro for RTX is currently available as an add-on to users of AdaCore's GNAT Pro development environment.

[Verse 1: B.o.B]
Opening doors like an answer key, I make the life answer to me, no fantasy
An evil genius, I leave my mark of the beast on the beat
Actually, I'm all like a natural disaster, I make you a causality
Added up, mathematically, putting numbers up, like 23
And I'm Manning up like Peyton be, game is over, I should take a knee
And bow out gracefully, even if you look me in my eyes
See you wouldn't be facing me
So what the fuck is pain to me?
And what the hell is rain to me?
My life is very impressionable, like a Van Gogh painting be
Call me Vincent inside the dimension, that's my mantra
Listen there is no competition, the mission's conquered
Did I mention? These girls at my concert, addicted, no double entendre
Which is why I'm colder than a tundra on Christmas, put your hands up, can I get a witness?
[Verse 2: 2 Chainz]
Why kill? the dark side's where I live
Horny devils in a red dress and high heels
You don't have an idea how many niggas done took my ideas
I take flight, I'm so bright, I don't even get no light bill
You road kill while I'm driving
I'm high-fiving, my dime riding, My time shining
From at the club and I'm outta town but I'm lying around it
Deuce chains I'm feng shui, everyday is my birthday
2 gats at the park, you don't wanna see these guns play
Patron and lemon lime, I got her back, all in her spine
I look my wife up in the eyes, and I think about another dime
My atmosphere is ratchet here this right here is Bally gear and
I keep on killing shit
And I don't even have no tatted tear
You can put the motherfucker Caddie here
You can put the motherfucker Beemer there
Still got 2 more garage places, Louies on I unlaced it
Every verse I'm going crazy, every girl it's going crazy
2 guns, 2 chains, 2 rings, 2 bracelets
[Instrumental Solo]

SKY REPORTER: July 2012
by Steve Beyer on
Sky Data
Sunday July first, sunrise is at 5:28 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time. That evening the Sun, located in the constellation Gemini, sets at 8:31 p.m.
On Sunday the 15th sunrise is at 5:38 a.m. and sunset occurs that day at 8:25 p.m.
The last day of the month, Tuesday July 31, the Sun is in the constellation of the Crab, rising at 5:52 a.m. and setting at 8:12 that evening. During July the length of time the solar disk is above the horizon each day decreases by 42 minutes and its altitude at noon, the daily maximum, drops from 72 degrees of arc on the first to 67 degrees on the 31st.
During this month average overnight temperatures recorded in Central Park increase from 67 degrees Fahrenheit on the first to 69 degrees on the last day of July. Despite decreasing daily minutes of sunlight and lower solar angles this month, land and water in our area retain sufficient heat so average temperatures recorded in Central Park reach an annual peak around the third week of July.
Principal Phases of the Moon are:
|Full Moon
|July 3
|Last Quarter
|July 10
|New Moon
|July 19
|First Quarter
|July 26
Sky Cast
The evening of July first Mercury, Mars, Saturn, and the bright gibbous Moon are all above the horizon at sunset. At 9:59 p.m. Mercury, in the constellation of the Crab, is first of this group to set. Neptune is now in Aquarius and rises at 11:09 p.m. Mars, in Virgo, sets at12:16 early on the morning of Monday July 2nd. Uranus rises at 12:37 a.m. between stars of Pisces and Cetus. Saturn, always a beautiful telescopic sight, is 24 degrees of arc east of Mars in Virgo and sets at 1:22 a.m. Jupiter rises at 3:06, followed 28 minutes later by Venus. The Moon sets at 4:13 the morning of July second.
On the Fourth of July Earth reaches the point in its elliptical orbit known as aphelion when we are furthest from the Sun at a distance of about 94,508,000 miles.
At five a.m. the following morning, as the sky begins to brighten with civil twilight, brilliant Venus is 16 degrees above the eastern horizon, less than two degrees above first magnitude star Aldebaran, and five degrees below Jupiter.
As twilight fades Sunday July 15th elusive Mercury, now rapidly moving closer toward the Sun's direction, sets at 9:07 p.m. At that time Mars and Saturn are both about 30 degrees of arc above the southwestern horizon.
At 10 p.m. that evening the great globular star cluster in Hercules reaches the meridian. This 6th magnitude object is a magnificent sight with telescopes large enough to resolve the cluster into individual stars. It is 25,000 light years from us, extends over an area of sky about the size of the Full Moon's disk, and has an age over 10 billion years. This and other globular clusters contain some of the oldest stars in the Galaxy.
Later on the night of July 15, Mars sets at 11:37 p.m. Soon after midnight the Red Planet is followed below the horizon by Saturn at 12:27 a.m. Jupiter rises at 2:21, and Venus arrives in the eastern sky at 3:00 a.m. At 4:00 a.m. that morning the thin waning crescent Moon is about six degrees above the horizon. Then for about an hour until morning twilight intervenes Jupiter, Venus, and Aldebaran form a small triangle low in the eastern sky to the upper right of the crescent Moon, with about 8% of its disk illuminated.
During July nights, when looking skyward from locations far from urban lights, the Band of the Milky Way may be seen extending across the entire sky from Perseus in the northeast to Scorpius in the south. This edgewise view of the Galaxy's disk is highlighted by several striking asterisms including stars such as Vega, Altair, and Deneb in the Summer Triangle; the hook shaped chain of stars punctuated by Antares in Scorpius; and the Teapot asterism of Sagittarius.
Vega is a white star in the constellation Lyra, and has a distance of 25 light years from the solar system. With an apparent magnitude of 0.03 it is the brightest star in the Summer Triangle and long served as a standard for the magnitude system that compares relative brightness of celestial objects. Larger positive magnitude numbers indicate lower rankings of brightness. Each magnitude unit indicates a brightness difference of about 2.5 times. Vega is a main sequence star and produces light and heat by the fusion of hydrogen to helium in its core.
Altair with magnitude 0.77 is the brightest star in Aquila and marks the southern corner of the Summer Triangle. It is one of the closest bright stars to us, with a distance just under 17 light years. As with Vega, Altair is a white main sequence object in the prime of its existence.
At a distance of about 3200 light years Deneb is one of the most distant individual stars visible to unaided eyes. It is a white supergiant with apparent magnitude 1.25. It marks both the tail of Cygnus the Swan and the top of the Northern Cross asterism. About 7,000 years ago Deneb was Earth's north polar star.
Antares, brightest star in Scorpius, has an apparent magnitude of 1.06 and is a red supergiant in the last stages of its evolution. Due to exceptional mass it was the first star of hundreds in the Scorpius Centaurus stellar association to have evolved into the red supergiant stage.
The evening of Tuesday July 24, the wide waxing crescent Moon is in Virgo about five degrees south of Mars. One day later the Moon, still in Virgo, moves eastward to a position about four degrees south of Spica and eight degrees below Saturn.
On the morning of July 31, Jupiter rises at 1:32 a.m. followed about an hour later by Venus at 2:39. Mercury is invisible against the brilliance of dawn when it rises at 5:45 a.m., just 7 minutes before the Sun. On the last evening of July Mars sets at 10:55 p.m. and Saturn drops below the horizon at 11:26 p.m.
Sky Notes
On June 5th we welcomed about 700 visitors to the Cullman Hall of the Universe under the great Hayden Sphere to witness the transit of Venus via NASA video. It was a pleasure to have an opportunity to meet many of you and discuss that rare celestial phenomenon. In addition to its visual and historical apeal the recent transit provided planetary researchers with important information. Although composition of the Venusian atmosphere is already quite well known thanks to decades of close study via orbiters and landers, comparisons of such data with telescopic analyses made during the recent transit are expected to help researchers refine similar methods used to study the vastly more remote atmospheres of extra-solar planets.
In light of progress made during the past century, it is difficult to even imagine what new wonders will be available on the evening of December 10, 2117 when many will pause from swirls of holiday activity to consider Venus as it next crosses the face of the Sun.
Recent media attention was focused on Voyager 1, a durable spacecraft launched 35 years ago that produced many high resolution images of Jupiter and Saturn, then continued its travels much further from the Sun. The venerable craft is still sending reports to Earth from its current distance of 119 astronomical units. This is farther than any object constructed by humans has ever traveled from Earth. By comparison, at their closest approaches, Venus and Mars are only about a third of an A.U. from our world. An astronomical unit is equal to the average distance between Earth and the Sun. They were first used centuries ago when only relative distances of planets were known. In modern times, when precise distances are available, rather than dealing with huge numbers such as billions of miles when describing extreme distances in the Solar System, A.U.'s provide easier visualization of spatial comparisons.
NASA researchers reported that Voyager 1 is now in a zone where the intensity of cosmic rays arriving at the craft from interstellar space is rapidly increasing, apparently the result of diminished opposing outward pressure from charged particles in the solar wind.
If you would like look on a clear night and point toward Voyager 1's current direction in the sky, it's about halfway between Vega and Antares, one degree east of the fifth magnitude double star 60 Herculis. Voyager 2 is 98 A.U. from us, but it's toward the southern constellation Telescopium, always beneath New York's horizon.
While both Voyager 1 and 2 are enduring legacies from an early era of planetary exploration, a new chapter is due to open next month with arrival of the Mars Science Laboratory and its rover Curiosity at the Red Planet's Gale crater early on the morning of August 5th. The mission's principal aim will be to search the Martian surface for evidence the planet once had an environment able to support microbial life.

The Pigeon Needs a Bath Party! Crafts and Snacks to Celebrate the Newest Mo Willems Book #ThePigeonParty
Sponsored Post: This post was sponsored by Disney-Hyperion. I received compensation and products to write this post.
As always, all opinions are my own and truthful.
Ever since Mo Willems' book, "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus!" was first published 10 years ago, the Pigeon has become a beloved picture book character selling more than 4 million book copies in the series. This April 1, 2014, the 8th book in the series, "The Pigeon Needs a Bath!" was released, my girls and I were so excited because the Pigeon series is a favorite in our household - we also love Knuffle Bunny and Elephant and Piggie.
I was SO excited to be able to design a craft and host a
Pigeon party for my daughter's First Grade class to kick off the new book release!
Because I can't take photos of the students at school (to protect their privacy),
I documented our crafts, activities and snacks here to share with you in case you want to host your own Pigeon themed party.

Tween Craft: Stained Glass Effect Easter Eggs with Tulip Dimensional Fabric Paint
This year, we decided to get fancy with our (fake) Easter Egg decorating and we made our own stained-glass-effect Easter Eggs with markers and Tulip brand dimensional fabric paint. Note: This is not a sponsored post, I just really like to use Tulip brand dimensional fabric paint for 3-D and mixed media projects. It has been my go-to "puffy" paint for this kind of stuff for years! I buy mine at Walmart but you can find it at any craft store in the t-shirt decorating and fabric paint area.

Yale-Colgate Box Score | Yale-Hartford Box Score
KISSIMMEE, Fla. - Meredith Parks went 3-for-3 with two RBI and Jessica Meyer was 2-for-2 with three RBI as Yale cruised to a 14-1 victory over Colgate at the Rebel Games. Megan Enyeart drove home four runs for the Bulldogs, who had 15 hits in the game which was stopped after four-and-a-half innings because of the run rule. In the second game of the day, Enyeart homered and Holly Gutterud pitched a complete game as Yale topped Hartford 4-1.
Against Colgate, the Bulldogs (8-2) jumped on top early, scoring once in the first thanks mostly to the speed of Ashley Sloan. Sloan led off with a bunt single and then promptly stole second, her seventh theft of the season. With one out, Aracelis Torres hit a grounder to third. She was retired at first, but Sloan scored on the play when Colgate first baseman Meg Mylan threw wildly to third.
Yale added five runs in the second. Kyli Hanson started the rally with a single and then stole second. Parks followed with an RBI double and scored on Meyer's single to left. Courtney Blachford reached on catcher's interference and Sloan singled to load the bases. Torres drew a walk to force in a run, and Enyeart delivered a two-run single to left.
The Bulldogs sent 14 batters to the plate and scored eight runs in the third. Enyeart and Meyer both had two-run singles in the inning, and Katie Edwards and Parks also had RBI singles.
Colgate (7-11) finally got on the board in the fourth when Whitney Scott scored on a wild pitch.
Kayla Kuretich went the distance in the circle for the Bulldogs. She allowed only four hits and struck out four.
Hartford's Brittney Stratton and Gutterud were locked in a pitcher's duel in the second game. Stratton allowed only one base runner through the first three innings, while Gutterud set down nine straight hitters in one stretch.
The Hawks (8-7) threatened in the first inning. Amanda Dilworth and Kristie Roberts both singled with one out. Yale catcher Tracy Timm, though, picked Dilworth off at second for the second out, and Gutterud avoided further trouble by retiring Nikki Thompson.
Yale finally got on the board in the fourth. With one out, Torres walked. Enyeart was then hit by a pitch, and Hanson followed with a long double to right-center that plated Torres. Allie Canulli capped the rally with a two-out, two run double.
Thompson homered to centerfield in the fourth for Hartford, but Enyeart answered with a homer to nearly the identical spot in the sixth for the Bulldogs to cap the scoring.
Gutterud allowed only five hits and struck out three to earn her second victory of the season.
Stratton also allowed five hits and struck out four.
The Bulldogs conclude action at the Rebel Games on Sunday, playing Florida A&M at 9 a.m. and Central Connecticut at 1 p.m.

metal landscape edging wholesale
Metal landscape edging provides a perfect landscaping for you who really love modern design. The design of the metal edging will make a true perfection toward modernity because it contains many spirits of modernity. The spirit modernity which is imbued in the metal edging comes from the color that it has. The sense of modernity is often delivered through gray color or metal sense. Gray color is the color of intelligence where intelligence and the excellence of future is always depicted with intelligence. Choosing Material for Metal Landscape Edging Now, when we want to make a great metal landscape edging, we need to find the best material that can be used for the edging itself. The material should fulfill some criteria which will make a durable and enchanting landscaping. Some material for the metal landscape also comes with some good criteria for making futuristic characters. The materials which will be used will be discussed in the discussion below. First, when you want to have perfect a metal landscape edging, you should use the aluminum material. Aluminum material is good because this material will give a really long lasting metal edging for landscape. Landscape edging is the edging which is often placed in the open place like front yard or backyard. With this condition, the material will encounter with water or any other kind of substance that can reduce the strength of common iron. By using the aluminum, a long lasting edging will be provided for you. Then, the next material which is great for the metal landscape edging is the alloy of Zink. Zink which is combined with the iron will create a strong and anti-stain material for the metal landscape. The other best thing when you use the Zink is that it costs less money compared to the aluminum. Zink is weaker in resistance against water but it comes with sturdier material compared to the aluminum. You will be able to make a perfect metal landscaping edging with this Zink because the money that you get from the saving from buying Zink can be used for other occasion. Combination of Material For creating a nice and futuristic design of metal landscape edging, you will not only need the presence of the metal in the decoration. The touch of other material is also needed for the edging. Here, I suggest you to have concrete for the additional material because concrete is easy to be designed compared to other material such as wood or mud. With those materials, you can create a nice creativity because mud and concrete are easy material to be shaped in the way that you want. Now, you see that creating metal landscape edging is not really a big deal to be done. You just need to be creative in making a decoration. If you run out of idea, you can ask some consultants in landscaping edging or find the tutorial in the internet. The metal landscape edge is really great choice when you want to make maximal decoration in your beloved house.

There is nothing worse than a person that glows luminous orange. Its not just ordinary folk, even celebs, who should know better do it!
Having said that, since the extremely dull cosmetics companies release bronzer after bronzer after bronzer during the summer months I may as well play ball.
I bought the matte Dior Bronzer today with SPF.
I like my bronzer to be matte – who wants to be covered in micro glitters. Keep it on the lips, keep it on the eyes – but all over? No thanks.
Then, Dior also has this SPF thing. Anything with SPF is good to me, but lets get real – in order for this powder to offer any real protection, it would have to be applied fairly thickly and very evenly over the face for it to work. I'm not saying ti wont offer some SPF protection, but don't rely on it!
I like this bronzer. there are four shades. Now, considering I am medium warm, NC35 ish, the ideal shade for me was number 2. Number 3 was a little too dark and orange. Now if thats too dark for me, and I saw a few ladies paler than me taking no. 3 and even no. 4, no WONDER there are tango heads walking all around my town!
Seriously keep it easy with the bronzer girls. Less is more!
P.S – I like the bronzer a lot by the way. Very natural and non streaky.
P.P.S Blogger is being a pain and refusing to let me upload pics. So I'll upload them later, if it sorts itself out!
