After losing three member schools in the past year, the Portage Trail Conference is finally making a move to return to full strength.
According to Rootstown athletic director Keith Waesch on Monday, Cloverleaf Local Schools (Medina County) has accepted an invitation by the PTC to join the league for the 2015-16 school year.
Waesch said that the Cloverleaf Board of Education voted unanimously (5-0) to become the newest member of the PTC.
Currently a member of the Suburban League, Cloverleaf was expected to join the newly formatted Suburban Athletic Conference, along with Portage County schools Kent Roosevelt and Aurora for the 2015-16 school year.
At a PTC league meeting last Monday, Waesch said that four schools made presentations to PTC officials, and that Cloverleaf's pitch was a standout.
"Eight schools applied to join the league and four schools gave pitches, and we felt that Cloverleaf really had a lot to offer the PTC," Waesch said. "They have nice facilities, including a turf field, and we felt that they made a great addition to the league."
Waesch said that one other school has been offered admission to the PTC, although the PTC is waiting for that unidentified school's officials to receive board approval.
In terms of student enrollment, Cloverleaf (389 boys, 348 girls) compares favorably to current Metro Division program Kent Roosevelt (433 boys, 448 girls).
While some have expressed the hope of adding two County Division sized programs to the league, Waesch said that the PTC felt the addition of Cloverleaf and a second school will make for a more balanced league.
"If things play out the way we hope, the playing field in the PTC should be leveled so to speak," Waesch said. "We hope to have a more competitive County Division, as well as a very competitive Metro Division."

Monitoring the Future is an annual survey of 8th, 10th, and 12th-graders conducted by researchers at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, under a grant from the National Institute on Drug Abuse, part of the National Institutes of Health. Since 1975, the survey has measured drug, alcohol, and cigarette use and related attitudes in 12th-graders nationwide. Eighth and 10th graders were added to the survey in 1991. Overall, 45,449 students from 395 public and private schools participated in the 2012 survey.
Top figure: Last Two Decades of Alcohol, Cigarette, and Illicit Drug Use*
*Past 30 day use.
This graphic illustrates past 30 day alcohol, cigarette, and illicit drug use among 8th, 10th, and 12th graders from 1992 through 2012. In general, alcohol and cigarette use has decreased, and illicit drug use, which declined in the late 1990s and early 2000s, has been increasing in recent years. In 2012, past 30 day use in each category was:
12th graders: 41.5%
10th graders: 27.6%
8th graders: 11.0%
12th graders: 17.1%
10th graders: 10.8%
8th graders: 4.9%
Illicit Drugs
12th graders: 25.2%
10th graders: 18.6%
8th graders: 7.7%
Second figure: Marijuana Use Among 12th Graders* vs. Perceived Risk
*Past year use.
Three points in time are shown—2008, 2010, and 2012— for marijuana use and the perception of risk (saw great risk in smoking marijuana occasionally) among 12th graders.
Using - 32.4%
Perception of risk - 25.8% saw great risk in smoking marijuana occasionally
Using - 34.8%
Perception of risk* - 24.5% saw great risk in smoking marijuana occasionally
Using– 36.4%
Perception of risk – 20.6% saw great risk in smoking marijuana occasionally
Third Figure:
36.4% equates to about 11 students in the average class.
Fourth figure: Use & Lose
A study released earlier this year showed that people who used marijuana heavily in their teens and continued through adulthood showed a significant drop in IQ between the ages of 13 and 38—an average of 8 points for those who met criteria for marijuana dependence. Those who never used marijuana showed no declines in IQ.
Fifth figure: Prescription/Over-the-Counter vs. Illicit Drugs
After marijuana, prescription and over-the-counter medications account for most of the top drugs abused by 12th graders in the past year.
This list shows the percentage of 12th graders who have used the following drugs in the past year.
Adderall – 7.6%
Vicodin – 7.5%
Cold medicines - 5.6%
Tranquilizers - 5.3%
OxyContin – 4.3%
Ritalin - 2.6%
Methaqualone/Quaaludes - 0.4%
Illicit Drugs
Marijuana – 36.4%
Powder Cocaine - 2.7%
Crack - 1.2%
Methamphetamine – 1.1%
Heroin - 0.6%
Bottom figure: What Are "Bath Salts"?
"Bath salts" are an emerging class of drugs containing one or more synthetic stimulants, which people use to get high by swallowing, snorting, or injecting. Because these drugs are relatively new, much is still unknown about how these substances affect the brain and body. They have been linked to an alarming surge in visits to emergency departments and poison control centers due to cardiac and psychiatric symptoms. Concerns about the use of "bath salts" prompted its inclusion in the survey for the first time in 2012. 1.3% of 12th-graders reported past year use.
The National Institute on Drug Abuse is a component of the National Institutes of Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. NIDA supports most of the world's research on the health aspects of drug abuse and addiction. Fact sheets on the health effects of drugs of abuse and information on NIDA research and other activities can be found at www.drugabuse.gov.

That would make my RB situation extremely dicey for my first playoff matchup this weekend. I need to pick up a RB this week, and I need to figure out what my waiver priorities are.
Is Joique Bell worth a flex play this week? Thinking about picking him up, but I already have SJax and Knowshon Moreno in my RB slots. I would start Shorts in the flex, but he's out indefinitely. And I don't trust Bryce Brown if McCoy is active.

I Hi Samit I think you might be going about the choice of file system from the opposite direction. What you want to do is not pick a file system, but rather start with an application or suite of applications. With the workload in mind, then you can pick the file system that best matches your needs. Questions you should ask: - What is a typical I/O workload? Large, contiguous regions or small, interleaved data? - How many files will this workload create? many files? One file? - Typical file size? many gigs, or several kbytes? - Is the workload parallel or serial? Would two or more processes ever try to simultaneously read or write to the same flie? How about directory? the beowulf mailing list has a catch-all answer of "it depends on your application", and that can be frustrating to hear, but it's never more true than when trying to match file systems to workloads. ==rob -- Rob Latham Mathematics and Computer Science Division A215 0178 EA2D B059 8CDF Argonne National Lab, IL USA B29D F333 664A 4280 315B

Bob Thompson's fascination with Davy Crockett began in the family car, on a trip with his wife and two young daughters, listening to an old Burl Ives collection of folk songs — "Shoo Fly," "Big Rock Candy Mountain," and then a song that immediately grabbed the girls' attention.
"Born on a mountaintop in Tennessee, greenest state in the land of the free," Ives warbled. And when it ended, voices from the back seat insisted that dad play that song again.
That began a family immersion into all things Crockett, and more than a few surprises along the way. Finally, Thompson's need to separate fact from fiction, wild yarn — occasionally spun by Crockett himself — from the real David Crockett, led him on a meandering journey through much of the Southeast, up to Washington, D.C., and all the way to the Alamo.
An amiable, graceful writer and a thoroughly curious researcher, Thompson invites us along for the ride. Almost immediately, we learn that "The Ballad of Davy Crockett" isn't 100 percent true.
Crockett's official birthplace sits at the edge of the Nolichucky River in Tennessee, where it splashes down into a valley, and not on a mountaintop. But you can see the mountain from there.
And while Crockett loved hunting bear, he was much older than 3.
So what about that iconic image of Crockett decked out in buckskin? Unlikely, Thompson learns.
"You try walking around out here with buckskins on and get 'em wet one time," one period re-enactor tells him. "It will freeze you to death. And they get slimy, and they're just — they're terrible."
Even the great accolade "King of the Wild Frontier" is better attributed to Daniel Boone, according to the manager of the Davy Crockett Birthplace State Park.
Much of what passes for Crockett history in the current culture has its roots in film and TV. Walt Disney shaped a good bit of it in his three-part series on Crockett's life that hit the small screen in December 1954. The John Wayne movie The Alamo added to the legend. Crockett, a pretty fair amateur public relations man, gave them plenty to work with.
Born to an extremely poor family, the fifth of six sons, along with three daughters, he left home for the first time at 12, hired out by his father to help "a perfect stranger" to drive a herd of cattle, on foot, from eastern Tennessee to near Natural Bridge, Va., a trip of about 250 miles.
A year later, he left home again after a row with his father, this time for 2 1/2 years. He hired himself out, helping to drive a herd of cattle to northern Virginia, 400 miles away. From there, he was off to what is now West Virginia, and then to Baltimore, where he marveled at the tall ships, and thought of joining one bound for England.
Instead, he found his way home, 16 years old and so changed that his family didn't recognize him.
This would be a pattern for Crockett, who tried farming and milling and other businesses but couldn't resist an adventure and sure couldn't stay home.
His final temptation came from Texas, and he followed a stream of settlers from Tennessee and Kentucky who were heading west, looking for land.
Thompson spent a year on his quest, "my year of walking where Crockett walked," he writes. And along the way, he ran into a series of generous folks who patiently detailed Crockett's history in their part of the old frontier, although history might be better defined as local tradition.
The difficulty, Thompson found, is getting hard facts. There are some from Crockett's later years, especially his years in politics. Even his final great act, volunteering to fight for the Texans in their rebellion against Mexico, can be murky.
In movies and TV, Crockett is a powerful voice at the Alamo, telling tales with his usual bravado to keep spirits up, and then fighting with a particular ferocity, clubbing enemy soldiers with his long rifle, his ammunition long gone. But other accounts paint a far different end.
In the end, Thompson writes, Crockett's tale is both history and myth, and the trouble is separating the two.
"If there's one thing I learned during my year of stalking ghostly Crocketts, it's that you can go crazy trying to herd the 'real' and 'mythic' version into different pastures," he writes. "It's hard to do that with anyone's story, but with David's it's close to impossible, because his legend sprang up at a point where there were hardly any facts on the ground."
Ultimately, it was Crockett himself who created his own persona, and his fans took that and ran.

Game Programming for Beginners
Jan 10, 2013—
Brief Reality Check
So you want to make games, eh? Prepare yourself; It's a long and arduous journey.
Every budding game developer's adventure starts off with an idea of a game they'd like to make. "It'll have some monsters inside of a dark and creepy 3d haunted house and the player just has to avoid them and find the way out. It'll be really simple." Little do most newbies know, few game ideas are ever "simple." It's a mistake to think that just because something is common, that it must easy. Sure, almost every first person shooter video game on the market has rocket launchers, jump pads, elevators, and vehicles, but it's definitely not easy to make those things.
You might say, "Yeah, but I just want to make a game like Mario. It can't be that hard." Despite having a genesis over 25 years ago, even 2D platformer games are difficult to make. Ask any game developer who has made or has tried to make one, and you'll "war stories" about post-midnight coding madness of trying to make the subtlties of player movement and collision work correctly. Even though it seems simple from a gamer's perspective, from a game developer's perspective, there's a multitude of processes that must be carefully and correctly crafted to make a game.
If there's just one thing you need to know before beginning to learn how to make games, it's this:Creating games takes a lot of time and effort!
Having the Right Idea
When you think you're finally ready to create a game, or to start your journey in game development, the first problem you'll encounter is come up with a good idea. All too often the first ideas that come up are copies of the current state of the games. The idea here is to stay with your feet on the ground.
You either fall into 2 categories:
a) you're a complete beginner with little or no programming experience
In this case, start simple. If you browse the forums, you'll often see veteran game developers tell newcomers to start off by making Pong, instead of the idea the really want to persue. The suggestion is not an insult, it's a proven strategy. When you start off, try to copy an old school game like Pac Man, Missile Command, or perhaps a simple board game like checkers. The simpler your first game is, the greater your chances of success. You will also be surprised at how much you will learn from a Pong clone, and how much of what you will learn will apply to games substantially more complex.
b) you're an expericed programmer or have at least read a book about C
When you already know what programming is all about then it's a little easier for you to get started on the more advanced games. Even when you are an experienced programmer, it doesn't hurt to start off simple just to get to the feeling of how programming games differs from applications or web development. In some cases you may even want to learn a new language.
Where to Start
After you have an idea for your game, the next step is to decide how you will approach creating your game. There are more or less, two approaches:
- Program it all yourself
- Leverage an existing game "engine" or "builder"
Game Engines
A common mistake new game developers make is that they think "game engines" are essentially magical programs where you just add in your own graphics, change a few lines of code, and like skinning a web forum, voila! You have your game! This just isn't true. The term "game engine" is so widely used and misused, it really has no concrete meaning. An indie game developer can come up with a "game engine" in a few weeks, and then there are professional AAA game engines in the industry that take teams of programmers years to write.
However, at their core they all tend to do the same things. A game engine is a collection of code, possibly from multiple sources, crafted to work together to handle the basic elements that almost all games need. Those elements tend to be: graphics rendering (2d or 3d), physics (collision detection and response), player input (handling keyboard and mouse events), and potentially other things such as networking, menus, high scores, and more. Game engines which handle a lot of that busy work for you, can definitely save you a lot of time and effort when creating your game, but don't be fooled into thinking that it still won't take a lot of time and effort to utilize that game engine.
Game Builders
Game "builders" are a different breed from game engines. Game builders tend to be what most new game developers think a game engine is. In other words, typically with game builders you do just slap in some graphics, write a few lines of simple scripts, click some checkboxes and change some settings to add some behaviors, and you click a magical "Build" button and your game is done. Game builders can be a good way for very young kids to make games and foster their creativity, but the very process which makes them fast and easy, makes them inflexible and limited.
Programming from Scratch
Many game developers like to "start from scratch" and build a game from the ground up, doing (almost) everything themselves. This is a fantastic way to learn about game development and programming in general. To go at from this direction, the first thing you'll need to do is pick a programming language.

(Reuters) - Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson rejoined his team for practice on Thursday, saying he was "standing strong" a day after attending his two-year-old son's funeral in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
Peterson's son died last week in Sioux Falls after suffering head injuries following what local police described as an apparent assault in a severe case of child abuse.
A 27-year-old man, allegedly a friend of the boy's mother, has been charged with aggravated battery and aggravated assault.
"It's an unfortunate situation and I can speak on it," Peterson told reporters on Thursday, having seen his son for the first time at the funeral after only learning the child was his two months ago.
"I was planning on seeing him and I had talked with his mom and had gotten some things together as far as financially helping her. Unfortunately, this situation took place and it's devastating.
"It's tough, but I'm able to deal with that. I got a good supporting cast around me. I'm standing strong, I am."
Peterson, the NFL's reigning most valuable player and a five-time Pro Bowler, was limited in practice on Thursday because of a hamstring injury but hopes to play against the New York Giants on Monday.
"I've just been trying to wrap my head around things and try to stay focused and play ball as well," said the 28-year-old running back, who played in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Carolina Panthers.
"Things have been tough, but I can handle a lot. Like I said, I'm built for anything that comes my way. This right here will pass."

Who is your issue with?
How does Resolver work?
Explains your rights to you
You'll find no legal jargon in our simple, comprehensive consumer rights sections. Our guidance is tailored specifically for every type of issue.
Helps you prepare your emails
We provide a wide range of flexible email templates for you to adapt to your needs – just slot in the specific details for your case, and in a few short clicks your issue will be ready to go.
Creates a case file for you
Your case file is a secure online location for all important documents regarding your issue. You can upload photos, tickets, copies of receipts or external emails from before you raised your issue with Resolver.
Lets you record all your communications
One of the most important aspects of a complicated issue is keeping a record of all your correspondence regarding the complaint – Resolver does this for you automatically.
Lets you know when to escalate your complaint
If you're not satisfied with the initial response from the organisation you have an issue with, our escalation process will let you know when you can raise your complaint to the next level of seniority and, ultimately to an ombudsman or regulator, where appropriate.
You should always be clear about the products you want and make sure your agreement is in writing. If the decorator does not carry out the works according to your agreement then they will be in breach of contract.You should know
Faulty product supplied with service
You have a legal right that the goods supplied by any builder or home improvement trader must
- be of satisfactory quality
- be fit for purpose
- match the description you were given
- be fitted using reasonable care and skill
If the goods are faulty or are not fitted correctly, or are not what you ordered, it's up to the trader who is doing the work for you to put things right.
It doesn't matter if the problem is with the goods or with how the goods were fitted – it's still up to the trader to sort it out. You shouldn't be asked to sort the problem out yourself with the manufacturer or business which sold your trader the goods. If you are asked to do this, you should insist that the trader who fitted the goods, sorts out the problem.
Raising your concerns
Talk to the tradesman about the problem and give them a chance to put any problems right or to finish any work that is not finished.
If this has been a series of events that has leas you to complain what is the main cause and as important be clear and concise as to what you want done to resolve the issue.
Be fair and reasonable
Stay calm, even if you are angry, and give evidence and examples to support your claims. Be fair, ensure that you listen to the tradesman view and see if there is a reasonable compromise that can be reached.
Keep an accurate record
Through resolver record your communications, phone calls and supporting documents such as photos in case the issue cannot be resolved. Remember the resolver app allows you to record your phone calls and add photos to your take on your phone. The app is available on both Android & Apple.
If you cannot solve the problem
resolver will remind you what to do and when. The system will allow you to escalate your case if unresolved after the tradesman has been given a reasonable time to resolve the issue with you.
Dispute resolution
If your issues cannot be resolved by the trader and the issue is about the complaint and not how it is handled then you should consider mediation or arbitration of the dispute. This is low cost and the focus is on providing a cost effective resolution.
Your complete case from resolver will allow the mediator/arbitrator to quickly assess your case. Resolver can put you in contact with the right parties to resolve your issue effectively.
Taking legal proceedings
The alternative is to take your issue to Court. The focus is only to take cases to Court as a last resort and you should have tried to mediate or arbitrate first. Simply going to your solicitor and sending costly letters will not help your case, the intent must be to resolve and how you have tried to have a reasoned argument rather than simply turning to your solicitor.
Find the best rights for you
We have 5,148 pages of rights advice for you covering 6,934 companies and organisations across 17 public & private sectors.

Jermichael Finley surprisingly missed practice Wednesday because of an injured toe. That led to NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport revealing that the Green Bay Packers tight end flew to Minnesota for treatment earlier this week.
That's the bad news for Finley and the Packers. The good news: Finley returned to practice Thursday, along with Pro Bowl guard Josh Sitton. Finley officially was "limited" on the injury report, but his increased activity is a great sign for his availability this Sunday against the Washington Redskins.
Then again, practicing during the week isn't a guarantee that a player will suit up. Packers safety Morgan Burnett (hamstring) practiced last week, but his injury flared up during sessions. Burnett wound up missing Week 1, but he's practicing again in advance of the matchup against Washington.
Every year, it seems like two playoff teams from the previous season face off in Week 2, trying to avoid an 0-2 start. Packers-Redskins is just that game this year.

Our Formula 2.0 cars are designed for one thing - RACING. Their ultra light carbon chassis, aerodynamic design and blistering power and performance guarantee a driving experience like no other.
With your seat stationed just a few centimeters from the ground, the sensation of raw speed and acceleration in the Formula 2.0 is INTENSE. The adrenaline pumps and you feel every millimetre of every straight and curve. It's a thrilling drive and if you're anything like us, the buzz will stay with you for hours, if not days!
Want a little glimpse of what you can expect? Take a look at the 'on board' footage from our laps in the Circuit of Cheste below.
First we meet you at the pit garage. Next you'll have the chance to get to know the circuit with a preliminary lap (as passenger) in a Hummer H2 driven by one of our professional drivers. Next it's time to step into the Formula 2.0 and take the wheel yourself! After a quick in-car briefing with your instructor, you'll be given the go ahead to put your foot down and DRIVE. Your instructor will lead the way for your Formula laps from a high-performance pace car. One of your guests will enjoy a passenger lap in a Hummer H2, and you can share your impressions with your guests over a drink in the refreshment area. Finally, having enjoyed your session on the driving simulator, don't forget to pick up your diploma on your way home.
The circuit at Jarama is located in the heart of Spain, around 30 kilometers north of Madrid. It is one the oldest and most distinguished circuits in the country, having hosted the Spanish Grand prix nine times in the 1960s and 70s.
The circuit is 3850 meters long and boasts a variety of tricky corners, ramps and inclines, which ensure a unique and challenging drive.
Location: San Sebastian de los Reyes, Madrid. Located on autovía A-1. The circuit is clearly visible from the motorway.
Our usual driving day schedule is as follows: 9:00, 10:00, 11:00, 12:00, 14:00, 15:00 and 16:00. There may be the possibility of further time slots on offer during the summer. Our Montmeló GP 4.3km experiences are usually at 13:00.
The experience includes access to the circuit enclosure for an unlimited number of guests.
For our regular track driving experiences (this excludes drift, highway and Montmeló GP 4.3km experiences), the driver will have access to the refreshments area, and may be accompanied by up to 5 guests free of charge. Extra guests are allowed, with a 10€ entrance fee payable per person on the day of the event (children between 3 and 12 pay 5€, and children between 0-3 years may enter free of charge).
Depending on the number of people taking part in your driving session, and your particular driving package, the event will approximately last between 1 and 2 hours. Since you will be joined at the event by a number of other emocionday clients, you may have to wait a short period until it is your turn to drive.
The participant must satisfy the following conditions before taking part in the experience:
For track driving, experiences consisting of one lap per car will not pass the finishing line. Experiences consisting of 2 laps per car will pass the finishing line once per vehicle, and so on with each successive lap.
No damage deposit payment is required, since any driving will be completed with a professional driver sat alongside as copilot, except in the case of the Formula driving, where the participant will follow an instructor driving a high-performance pace car.
It's important to bear in mind that the aim of this experience is not to race the vehicles, but to enjoy the unique characteristics of legendary sports cars in a safe driving environment.
Public liability insurance is included.
We recommend wearing comfortable clothing and flat shoes for the experience.
For safety reasons, bad weather sometimes makes it impossible to start or continue with an event. In the event of cancellation, you will be offered an alternative date for completing your experience.
In the event of mechanical failure, we reserve the right to a) offer an alternative date or b) replace the car in question with an equivalent vehicle.
For information on how to add extra laps (whether in the same car or an additional model) or on-board video recording to your driving pack, get in touch with our reservations team before the date of your experience by email or telephone. We will be delighted to assist you.

NEW YORK (Reuters) - The Dow and S&P 500 edged higher on Tuesday after stronger-than-expected retail data, though tech heavyweight Apple dragged on the market for a third day.
Apple (AAPL.O) was the biggest weight on both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 .NDX after reports on Monday of cuts to orders for iPhone parts. Shares declined 3.2 percent to $485.92 and closed below $500 for the first time since February.
Retail stocks advanced after a government report showing retail sales rose more than expected in December was seen as a favorable sign for fourth-quarter growth. A separate report showed manufacturing activity in New York state contracted for the sixth month in a row in January.
"A little better-than-expected news on retail sales once again reinforces that the consumer remains alive and reasonably well," said Mark Luschini, chief investment strategist at Janney Montgomery Scott in Philadelphia, which manages about $54 billion in assets.
Among retailers, American Eagle Outfitters Inc (AEO.N) gained 4.8 percent to $20.58 and Gap Inc (GPS.N) rose 3.4 percent to $32.46. The Morgan Stanley retail index .MVR advanced 1.5 percent.
Express Inc (EXPR.N) surged 23.8 percent to $17.40 after the apparel retailer raised its fourth-quarter and full year 2012 outlook.
The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI was up 27.57 points, or 0.20 percent, at 13,534.89. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index .SPX was up 1.66 points, or 0.11 percent, at 1,472.34. The Nasdaq Composite Index .IXIC was down 6.72 points, or 0.22 percent, at 3,110.78.
Apple's stock has lost about 7 percent in the last three sessions and is down 8.7 percent since the start of the year.
"It's tough to discern exactly what's putting the pressure on it. But at the end of the day, its influence, considering it's still 3 1/2 to 4 percent of the S&P 500 index, is being felt," Luschini said.
"I attribute (it) to just some of the bloom coming off of the rose. They haven't necessarily done anything wrong, as much as others have caught up."
Also keeping investors on edge is the looming debt ceiling debate. On Monday, President Barack Obama rejected any negotiations with Republicans over raising the U.S. debt ceiling. The United States could default on its debt if Congress does not increase the borrowing limit.
Resolving the debt ceiling is more a question of how than if. Investors don't expect a U.S. default, but they are also wary of another eleventh-hour agreement like the one in August 2011.
An expected lackluster earnings season, too, kept investors from taking aggressive bets. Analyst estimates for the quarter have fallen sharply since October. S&P 500 earnings growth is now seen up just 1.8 percent from a year ago, Thomson Reuters data showed.
Homebuilder Lennar (LEN.N) reported a sharp rise in quarterly profit, but the stock declined 0.8 percent to $40.68 on worries that growth in orders was slowing.
Dell Inc DELL.O shares added to Monday's gains, ending up 7.2 percent to $13.17 after sources said talks to take the computer maker private are in an advanced stage.
On the down side, shares of Facebook (FB.O) dropped 2.7 percent to $30.10. The company unveiled a "graph search" feature that CEO Mark Zuckerberg said would help its billion-plus users sort through content within the social network and its content feeds.
Volume was roughly 5.8 billion shares traded on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq and the NYSE MKT, compared with the 2012 average daily closing volume of about 6.45 billion.
Advancers outpaced decliners on the NYSE by about 17 to 12 and on the Nasdaq by about 13 to 11.

Who knows at this point if this is just another one of those times where I've just had a dip in my health condition and I'm starting to feel better again or if this the new drug providing relief. All I can tell you is that I am feeling much better. There is pain that remains in my leg, but I am happy to say that I am only using the cane about 10% of the time. I am simply starting to feel better.
For those that are not following me on Facebook, I spent last Thursday in Philadelphia receiving my first month's supply of Vemurafenib. They say that this drug works quickly, but after only a day or two, I'm back up and walking on my own again. This drug is fantastic! There are the obvious issues with the drug as we talked about before, but I think at this point we are going to take what we can get.
Anecdotally, this drug causes new pain which is supposedly the process of the tumors breaking down. I can tell you that there is new pain in my body going on right now. Could this be Vemurafenib doing it's thing? I sure hope so ...
Wednesday of last week, Vemurafenib received it's FDA approval. Now they can officially start their clinical trials which are combining both Vemurafenib with Ipilimumab. Thought being that the combination of drugs could provide the knock out punch. Dr Lynn Schuchter, who is the oncologist overseeing my Vemurafenib treatment is one of the main researchers who started this clinical trial. As you can imagine, she was ear to ear with excitement when she found out that I am basically her first clinical patient as I've already taken the combination. Hopefully we can provide her with some great study information prior to her actually starting her new trial.
I'm not quite sure yet what the timeline is for scans and reports etc. I do know I'll be in Philadelphia again next month to get another round of pills. I'll get more information then. This last time, I think I was more anxious just to get my hands on the drugs.
I'm feeling good now. Taking it easy on the work front again, basically working from home. I plan to show my face from time to time, especially as I start to get even better. I'm just trying to take things slow and not get ahead of myself.

Iran's Guide
Iranian Recipes & Cuisines
History of Most Famous and Most Popular Iranian Dish, Chelo-Kabab
n 1352 (1973-74) a meal of chelo-kabab barg (made of mutton fillet and grilled on skewer) served together with butter, grilled tomato, raw onion, and sumac would have cost IR 60 for those who were at work and could not go home for lunch. Sometimes when a number of colleagues were on leave, others had the chance to order jojeh-kabab (roast chicken) which would have cost IR 120.
Tenfold in Thirty Two Years
Thirty two years earlier in 1320 (1941-42), the Iranian daily Ettela'at wrote that Tehran restaurants would charge IR 5 for a meal of chelo-kabab including an extra large kabab barg, butter, 330 grams of rice, onion and bread as much as demanded. At the same time a meal of chelo-kabab kubideh (made of minced meat) cost IR 4.
Chelo-Kabab Koobideh
Fifty Years Earlier
E'etemado-saltaneh, Naser-e-Din Shah's minister of publications and head of translation office, used to order a highly qualitative take-out chelo-kabab in Nayeb restaurant, which had just opened in the Tehran bazaar and furnished with dining tables and chairs as in European restaurants, for IR 3 to 5. Also in 1295 (1916-17), Abdullah Bahrami, the deputy general of the Tehran police used to pay maximum IR 4 to 5 for each meal of chelo-kabab that he ordered for his respected and unrespected (the criminals who confessed to their crimes but promised to cooperate with the police) guests.
Twenty five years have passed since the time when a meal of chelo-kabab cost IR 60.
Now it would cost something between IR 7,000 and 40,000 while the 25-rial kabab kubideh would now cost IR 4,500 to 15,000. Considering the fact that the average income of the veterans in Iran is within a range of IR 250,000 to 600,000, and that chelo-kabab used to be a very popular and the most common national dish, now one can say that it has turned into a luxurious one.
A Dish Loved by All
During his tour of Russia, Caucasus and European countries, Naser-e-Din Shah enjoyed three things: the elegant clothing of the Russian Kazak, the Saint Petersburg's and Muscovite ballerinas' pants, and finally Caucasian chelo-kabab which was different from Iranian kabab mainly prepared from chops of veal, mutton and hunted birds and grilled on skewers. The Caucasian chelo-kabab is what is now known as kabab barg, sultani and luleh or kubideh.
Not Before Qajar Era
In their writings about Iran, the European explorers who visited Iran during Safavi era (1500-1736), though mentioned a lot about different kinds of chelos (cooked and drained rice) and polos (cooked rice), stews, pickles, and jams, but wrote nothing about chelo-kabab in the sense that we talk about it today. Most probably the recipe of chelo-kabab has been given to the Iranian people either by the Caucasian people or by the Iranians visiting the region, or as written by Mirza Mohammad Reza Mo'tamed-ul-Ketab Shams Larijani, an author of Qajar era, has been demanded by Naser-e-Din Shah himself from the Caucasians and soon learned by Iranians all over the country.
Being an Asian dish, chelo-kabab was well received in Iran and now has turned into the most delicious Iranian dish.
Feeding a Battalion or a Regiment Naser-e-Din Shah had 87 wives, four of whom in permanent and the rest in temporary marital conditions, as well as 300 slave girls who together with the female and male servants formed a battalion or, better to say, a 1000-strong regiment. Writing about Naser-e-Din Shah, Doust-Ali Khan Mo'ayer-ul-Mamalek, a descendent of the Shah, narrates that on Fridays whenever he wished to pilgrim the holy shrine of Hazrat Abdul-Azim in Shar-e Rey, then a village in the south of Tehran, his servants used to rush to the village one day earlier and order 1,000 to 2,000 kabab kubideh. Kabab was a dish not in the court menu but loved by his wives.
Thus, whenever they planned to go there, they did not want to lose the chance to have kabab served with basil, onion, and spring onion on copper platters.
Chelo-Kabab Barg
Political Chelo-Kabab, First Punishment, Then Reception
In 1324 (1945-46), the price of the imported sugar cubes from Russia went up due to the breakout of the war between that country and Japan and also the slump in imports to Iran. The tyrant governor of Tehran, Ala'e-doleh, considered the merchants and brokers such as Seyyed Hashem Qandi and Esmaeil Khan who had deals with Russia, as the ones responsible for the price hikes. Summoning them, Ala'e-doleh asked them to lower the price of sugar cubes.
However, they did not accept and consequently were lashed extensively. While being lashed, the son of the merchant Hashem Qandi arrived and asked the governor to lash him instead of his father. He accepted and ordered his subjects to whip the son who received more than 500 lashes before a servant arrived and announced that chelo-kabab was ready to be served. Ala'e-doleh left the area while invited the three punished men to join him. He said that at the time of lashing they had to receive lashes and at the time of lunch they had to have lunch. "Now the time is for chelo-kabab. Help yourselves and enjoy it."
Oldest Chelo-Kabab Restaurant in Tehran
Nayeb Chelo-Kabab Restaurant was the oldest one established in the Tehran bazaar 120 years ago. Since its establishment till some 15 years ago when it was closed down, to please the customers, Nayeb waiters used to serve the extra-filled plate of pyramid-shaped hot rice crowned with the melting butter while kababs on skewers were served by a waiter who used to go from one table to another and provide customers with extra kababs as soon as they ran out of them and as long as rice was still left in their plates. First, the customers used to sit on bunches but later they were served at tables. The restaurant did not mind how many kababs a customer would eat and used to charge everybody the same, a generous manner that was characteristic of Iranians at that time, because of which it managed to run a brisk business.
Talking about the generosity and kindness of Mr. Nayeb, a gentleman who was the boss boy of a stingy merchant when a young boy, said that he used to go to the Nayeb restaurant in the bazaar every day to buy chelo-kabab for his boss who never thought that he was hungry too and that he wished to have lunch too. But Mr. Nayeb, realizing that the boy was hungry, used to treat him with bread and kabab before he prepared the chelo-kabab for the merchant and kept mentioning to his workers that he was only a child and that the smell of kabab made his mouth watery.
E'temad-ul-Saltaneh, in his notes, mentions of a shop in the bazaar which like Europeans served food at tables in 1292 lunar Hijra (some 121 years ago), a reference most probably to the Nayeb restaurant as the first chelo-kabab restaurant in Tehran. However, chelo-kabab restaurants were most likely first established in the northwestern city of Tabriz which borders with Caucasia. Nowadays, chelo-kabab is a national Iranian food in Tehran and other cities.
The reputation of the Nayeb restaurant was passed on from one generation to another and now there are tens of chelo-kabab restaurants in Tehran and other cities that are named after the original one. But the most famous of them in Tehran are the ones located in downtown near Shamsul-Amareh, and in Sa'adat-abad , Aban, and Vali-e-Asr streets, the owners of whom are most probably the descendent of the founder of the original one in the bazaar.
The reputation of the Nayeb chelo-kabab restaurants has crossed the borders and now tens of them have been founded in other countries. In the downtown of Los Angeles, for example, there is a Nayeb chelo-kabab restaurant, which according to an Iranian who has recently been there, offers pseudo-chelo-kabab. When asked what he meant by pseudo-chelo-kabab, he said that chelo-kabab is a dish prepared with aromatic Iranian rice and fresh mutton fillet. When prepared with beef, it would be better to name it steak and rice rather than chelo-kabab, something similar to but not real chelo-kabab.
Kabab Shops
Till 1330-35 (1951-57), one kabab kubideh would have cost IR 3.5 in Tehran and other cities while two of them together with bread and grilled tomato would make a full meal costing about IR 8 and you could buy a lemonade or water milk for 2-4 rials. Thus you could have a perfect lunch for IR 10-12.
At that time when stocks still used to feed on natural pasture, meat seemed to be more delicious and aromatic and the aroma of kabab could be smelled from a far distance and make passerby feel hungry. Kababs used to be wrapped in different kinds of Iranian breads such as taftoon, sangak and lavash (the dough of all of which are spread out in the shape of an almost 23-inch-diameter circle or a 12 x 30-inch rectangle) topped with basil in summer and with a big-size onion in winter.
People used to say that if a young boy under the age of puberty smells kabab, he must immediately be provided with some or otherwise he would lose his state of manhood forever.
Nowadays, after so many years that kabab shops have served people with kababs in the traditional way, and after the opening of so many modern restaurants and deli, hamburger, pizza, and fried chicken shops, the business of the kabab shops is not brilliant and no longer elegant people go to their shops to sit amidst the smell and smoke of kabab to have kabab.
However, the kabab shops in Hazrat-e Abdul-Azim bazaar managed to enjoy their reputation for few more decades. Also the kabab shops in Sarband and Darband villages of Shemiran, north of Tehran as well as certain shops in smaller cities such as the ones in and around the northeastern city of Mashad and the one in Shiraz opposite the historic site of Hafezieh where it serves a lot of people who consider going to the restaurant as a national and traditional obligation, were famous and could attract a lot of customers.
Most of the kabab and chelo-kabab restaurants had interesting names such as Salamat (health), Keramat (dignity), or Nezafat (cleanliness) entailed with the name of the city of Tabriz, with the aim to attract more customers.
A short period of time after the victory of the Islamic Revolution of Iran in 1979 and after a period of bankruptcy, a number of big and modern kabab shops were opened in the uptown and renewed the tradition of serving kabab and bread grilled right on the spot. These shops which named themselves as kabab-khaneh (kabab houses), were quite different from those in the old time filled with smoke and smell of kabab. Soon their business flourished so that they are now among the most crowded restaurants in the city. Many of them have also special ovens for baking Iranian bread and presenting fresh bread to their customers.
Famous Chelo-Kabab Restaurants in Tehran
Presently, there are hundreds of chelo-kabab restaurants in Tehran the most famous of which are Nayeb in Sa'adat-abad district (there are several Nayeb restaurants in other parts of the city including the ones in Aban, Vali-Asr and Vozara streets), Shater-Abbas, Madayen, Alborz, Yas (two of them belonging to Naseri Bros.), Royal Vanak, Lux-e Talaei, Apadana, Orkideh, Javan, and Tabriz. Sahra restaurant (in Sahra Hotel in Ayatollah Taleghani St., opposite the former American embassy) has also the reputation for presenting delicious chelo-kabab.
However, it is unfortunate that chelo-kabab has not been registered as an international food although it is definitely much better and more delicious than many other dishes belonging to other nations.
In Abroad
Javad Farifteh, Ahmad Shah's (the last king of Qajar dynasty deposed in 1925) special chef immigrated to Paris some 70 years ago and established the well-known Farifteh chelo-kabab restaurant there. Also, Ahmad Khan, an Iranian resident of Germany, set up a restaurant when Nazis were in power and once, it is said, Hitler, the Nazi leader, accompanied by his two aides went to the restaurant and tried the Iranian chelo-kabab. In recent years, you simply find tens of chelo-kabab restaurants in every European and American city and there are so many of them here and there that it is not simply possible to give an exact statistic of them.
Nayeb Restaurant
Nayeb restaurant is owned and managed by Dr. Hossein Yazdan-Manesh, a Ph.D. graduate in sociology from France. He administers his restaurant in the best way possible and with an excellent taste.
Dr. Yazdan-Manesh believes that administering a well-known and honorable restaurant is nothing less than having the title of a doctorate in sociology and that many educated people may run such businesses successfully.
Nayeb is known as one of the best restaurants in Tehran and the way its personnel treat their customers would certainly please them. Dr. Yazdan-Manesh is surely successful in his business.
Chelo-Kabab Pahlavani (Extra Large)
In recent years, preparing extra large barg and kubideh kababs which are sometimes three times bigger than ordinary ones, have become common but they are usually too big to be eaten by one person.
It is said that at the time of the Constitution Movement in Iran (1900's) the owner of a chelo-kabab restaurant in Tabriz listening to a speech in favor of the movement asked the speaker what constitutionalism meant and what would happen if Iran enjoyed a constitutional government. The speaker who himself was not very much aware of the details said that constitutionalism meant cheap chelo-kabab available for all. If Iran adopted constitutionalism, then you would get a kabab this large (at this moment the speaker showed the length of his fingertip to elbow) and with this diameter (then he pointed to his muscular and athletic arm). The man became very happy and said that he sincerely would accept constitutionalism and that he would tell others about it too.
Hajj Hassan Shamshiri
The owner of the most famous Iranian chelo-kabab Restaurant was Hajj Hassan Shamshiri whose restaurant was located in the eastern wing of Sabzeh-Meydan square in downtown at the time of Reza Shah. Later, he moved to a four-storey building, the first floor of which was the kitchen. The second floor was for the reception of local shopkeepers and single men while the third floor was for the families and high-level customers and in each floor there were lots of full-length mirrors. Mr. Shamshiri used to supervise the third and fourth floors of the restaurant.
As of 11.00 a.m., the aroma of kabab and the high-quality cooked rice as well as fresh butter used to fill the air in and around the restaurant and make every passerby hesitant about not going inside. Shamshiri used to offer double-deck chelo-kabab, that is, he used to crown a pyramid-shaped pile of cooked rice with two kababs in a plate.
Mr. Shamshiri was a staunch advocate of the oil industry nationalization movement and a sincere follower of Dr. Mosadegh (the then prime minister who nationalized oil industry) and in the winter of 1330 (winter of 1951-52) paid the very large sum of IR 1,000,000 to buy national bonds as an effort to support the nationalization plan. Several months after the 1953 coup against Dr. Mosadeqh, he was arrested on charges of struggling against the coup government of Zahedi and was exiled to the Kharg island in the Persian Gulf. His co-prisoner in Kharg, the late Karim Keshavarz wrote in his diary that Mr. shamshiri had promised to treat his co-prisoners with high-quality Shamshiri kabab barg and kubideh but that unfortunately no such chance became available.
Shamshiri's reputation of his chelo-kabab was such that an Iranian author wrote a novel about it in which he described it as the most pleasant dish adored by both Iranians and Westerners.
Even now, some chelo-kabab restaurants carry the name in an effort to convince the customers that their chelo-kabab is of high quality, while some others claim that they have hired the Shamshiri's chef. However, the fact is that he died almost 30 years ago and that his chefs are either too old to work or have passed away already. The only probability is that his chefs' trainees may be now engaged in some of the restaurants.

I've written about deflation twice before: Deflation and Deflation 2. Third time's the charm?
The common wisdom is that deflation of the currency is bad. When money deflates, it becomes more valuable, even when you do nothing. So the theory is that people won't spend their money, because it will become ever-more valuable.
That theory cannot be true.
Look at the PC market over the last 30 years. In each one of those years, the PC became more reliable, faster, came with more memory and storage. The original MDA display was one color and text only. The CGA had 16 colors and 640x200 bits. The price -- of the computer you really want to have -- has stayed constant, at about $5000.
If the story told about deflation was true, then you would always be better off delaying your purchase of a PC by 6 months. You could be confident that the PC you would buy would be a more valuable PC.
Except ... that people did that very rarely, if ever. The standard advice was always "don't wait to buy a computer, because there will always be a better computer on the horizon."
So, in a situation where people can predict a constant stream of increase in value, people STILL made the trade. Thus, I think it's safe to predict that in a similar situation, where people could predict a constant increase in the value of their money, they would spend their money as needed.

Perfect Relations
NVIDIA Collaborates with Microsoft on High Performance GPU Computing
Users Harness the Power of NVIDIA Tesla GPUs for Enterprise Computing on Windows HPC Server 2008
SANTA CLARA, Calif. —Sep. 28, 2009 - NVIDIA today announced work with Microsoft to promote NVIDIA® Tesla™ graphics processing units (GPUs) for high performance parallel computing using the Windows HPC Server 2008 operating system.
"The coupling of GPUs and CPUs illustrates the enormous power and opportunity of multicore co-processing," said Dan Reed, corporate vice president of Extreme Computing at Microsoft. "NVIDIA's work with Microsoft and the Windows HPC Server platform, is helping enable scientists and researchers in many fields achieve supercomputer performance on diverse applications."
NVIDIA Research developed several GPU-enabled applications on the Windows HPC Server 2008 platform, such as a ray tracing application that can be used for advanced photo-realistic modeling of automobiles. Related to this, NVIDIA worked with Microsoft Research to install a large Tesla GPU computing cluster and is studying applications that are optimized for the GPU.
In addition, a whole range of enterprise applications – such as data mining, machine learning and business intelligence, as well as scientific applications like molecular dynamics, financial computing and seismic processing – are taking advantage of the massively parallel CUDA™ architecture on which NVIDIA's GPUs are based to achieve higher levels of productivity.
The CUDA architecture enables developers to use the CPU and the GPU together in a co-processing model. Compute-intensive sections of an application use the parallel computing capabilities of the GPU, while the sequential part of an application's code runs on the CPU.
"The combination of GPUs and the Windows platform has been a great benefit to our VMD (Visual Molecular Dynamics) user community, bringing advanced molecular visualization and analysis capabilities to thousands of users," said John Stone, senior research programmer at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. "As we move toward even larger biomolecular structures, GPUs will become increasingly important as they bring even more computational power to bear on what will be highly parallelizable computational problems."
"The scientific community was one of the first to realize the potential of the GPU to transform its work, observing speedups ranging from 20 to 200 times while using a range of compute-intensive applications," said Andy Keane, general manager of NVIDIA's Tesla business. "Researchers are increasingly using Windows on workstations and in data centers due to strong development tools like Microsoft Visual Studio, its ease of system management and its lower total cost of ownership."
NVIDIA Tesla high-performance GPU computing products support Windows XP and Windows Vista in the workstation and Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 in the data center. Tesla C1060 and S1070 GPU computing products are available from most major system vendors including Cray, Dell, HP and Lenovo.
About NVIDIA
NVIDIA (Nasdaq: NVDA) awakened the world to the power of computer graphics when it invented the graphics processing unit (GPU) in 1999. Since then, it has consistently set new standards in visual computing with breathtaking, interactive graphics available on devices ranging from portable media players to notebooks to workstations. NVIDIA's expertise in programmable GPUs has led to breakthroughs in parallel processing which make supercomputing inexpensive and widely accessible. Fortune magazine has ranked NVIDIA #1 in innovation in the semiconductor industry for two years in a row. For more information, see www.nvidia.co.in.
Certain statements in this press release including, but not limited to, statements as to: the benefits, features, impact, performance and capabilities of NVIDIA Tesla GPUs and CUDA architecture; and the benefits of multicore coprocessing; are forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause results to be materially different than expectations. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include: development of more efficient or faster technology; design, manufacturing or software defects; the impact of technological development and competition; changes in consumer preferences and demands; customer adoption of different standards or our competitor's products; changes in industry standards and interfaces; unexpected loss of performance of our products or technologies when integrated into systems as well as other factors detailed from time to time in the reports NVIDIA files with the Securities and Exchange Commission including its Form 10-Q for the fiscal period ended July 26, 2009. Copies of reports filed with the SEC are posted on our website and are available from NVIDIA without charge. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and speak only as of the date hereof, and, except as required by law, NVIDIA disclaims any obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances.

Peabody Energy Corp , the company responsible for creating now-bankrupt Patriot Coal through a 2007 spinoff, on Friday said it has no obligation to fund health and pension benefits for Patriot retirees affected by the company's insolvency.
In court papers in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in St. Louis, Peabody said new labor deals between Patriot and the United Mine Workers of America effectively relieve Peabody of any funding obligations.
Continue Reading Below
In a lawsuit relating to Patriot's bankruptcy, Patriot and Peabody are fighting over the responsibility to fund benefits for a group of about 3,100 retirees that Peabody agreed to continue covering after the October 2007 spinoff.
A judge in May declared that Peabody was relieved of that burden when Patriot abrogated its labor obligations for all employees and retirees earlier this year and negotiated new, cost-saving deals as part of its restructuring in Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
An appeals court last month reversed that ruling, saying the abrogation of labor deals should have exempted the group in question, and that the group's benefits remained the responsibility of Peabody.
But that ruling was "not concerned with, and expressed no opinion on, what effect a new labor agreement would have on Peabody's" obligations, Peabody argued in Friday's filing.
Under the new deal, Peabody's funding obligations, which are tied to the amount of benefits Patriot provides to its workers, disappear, because the deal transfers all benefits to an outside trust, Peabody argued.
The trust is to be funded by some up-front cash and equity in the post-bankruptcy Patriot, but ongoing contributions from Patriot will cease after January 1, 2014.
Peabody's funding obligation should be proportionately reduced, in this case to zero, Peabody argued. It asked the court to confirm the termination of its contractual funding obligation.
In a statement, Peabody blamed the union for "grandstanding," saying it eschewed offers by Peabody to help fund the new benefits trust.
A union spokesman did not respond to a request for comment, while a spokesman for Peabody declined to comment.
Under Patriot's restructuring, retiree benefits will be reduced, while current workers stand to absorb cuts in salary, vacation time and other perks.
That Patriot's miners will sustain much of the pain of the company's collapse has made the case vitriolic, with the union staging myriad protests and rallies before reluctantly agreeing to new deals.
The union has bargained for lifetime healthcare and pension benefits since the 1940s, considering those benefits sacrosanct. But coal companies have become less able to afford them in the face of modernization, a shrinking workforce and the growing prevalence of new sources of energy.
The union, like Patriot, has made efforts to hold Peabody responsible for any benefits Patriot cannot afford to maintain. The union last year sued Peabody saying it designed Patriot to fail by loading it with hefty debt and weak assets, and should remain on the hook for worker benefits.
Peabody has denied the allegations, saying Patriot was "highly successful" in the wake of the spinoff, eventually falling victim to the realities of the energy market.
