Doris Gazda has the knack for writing appealing and fresh material for young string players, as her innovative technique collection, High Tech for Strings amply demonstrated. Her new folio is sure to duplicate that success. It is a wonderful collection that includes familiar folk songs, classical themes, seasonal carols and original tunes. - 12 selections in all. Each part book and the score includes a CD that has a demonstration performance and a play-along track for each piece. There is also a piano accompaniment part. The collection is progressively arranged and each tune demonstrates and deals with a particular pedagogical challenge designed to guide the young musician toward the goal of mastering his or her string instrument. Emphasis is placed throughout on acquiring the best habits in the fundamentals of good string playing: proper tone, intonation and control of the bow. String Town Tunes will be a great way to improve and enrich a beginning string program.

THE ABCs OF BASS
Janice Tucker Rhoda brings her innovative approach to string pedagogy, combining as it does the Suzuki rote learning approach with the more traditional reading requirements of older methods, to the String Bass. Mindful of the idiosyncrasies of bass tuning and technique, the author has brilliantly adapted her approach to the bass. The key elements are emphasized throughout: intonation, bow technique, correct posture, steady rhythm, accurate reading, et. al. The early exercises incorporate the necessary basics of music reading and the musical examples/selections are the familiar mix of original melodies, folk songs and classical selections. ABCs of Bass will cover the essential material in two books (supplemented by two piano accompaniment books). This book is a perfect way to launch adult and younger students on the string bass.

Malthus to Solow
AbstractA unified growth theory is developed that accounts for the roughly constant living standards displayed by world economies prior to 1800 as well as the growing living standards exhibited by modern industrial economies. Our theory also explains the industrial revolution, which is the transition from an era when per capita incomes are stagnant to one with sustained growth. We use a standard growth model with one good and two available technologies. The first, denoted the Malthus technology, requires land, labor, and reproducible capital as inputs. The second, denoted the Solow technology, does not require land. We show that in the early stages of development, only the Malthus technology is used, and, due to population growth, living standards are stagnant despite technological progress. Eventually, technological progress causes the Solow technology to become profitable, and both technologies are employed. In the limit, the economy behaves like a standard Solow growth model.

"I do get a little frustrated. Even when you hear them [on the phone] you're like 'I finally got a hold of you,' just to hear it's going to take a little time," said
According to the state, there are tens of thousands of delayed payments. Over the weekend, hundreds of workers tried to clear a majority of the delays. It says most people who are eligible to receive benefits will get their money by Tuesday morning.
51-year-old Michael Losurdo has been waiting a month for his benefits.
"When the government wants their money, they want to get it now. They charge us interest and penalties. Now are they going to do that for us?" questions Losurdo.
After paying into unemployment most of his life, he's frustrated by a system that's not working when he needs it most.
"The food is dwindling and our bills are piling up and it's hard," said Losurdo.

text: According to The Big Lead, former Sixers head coach Doug Collins is likely to take ESPN's Michael Wilbon's spot on ESPN's NBA Countdown. Because Wilbon was unable to be on the show consistently, ESPN needs to find a full-time replacement. Collins has good knowledge of the game of basketball, so it would be interesting to see him with the panel.

Beginnings: Rockaway Indians were the first residents in what was to become Oceanside. In 1682, the Town of Hempstead granted 100 acres in the area to St. George's Church so it could support itself. The property was known for many years as the Parsonage Farm, even after the church sold it in 1826. Gristmills in nearby communities soon attracted settlers, and farmers, fishermen and baymen got the community going during the 1800s. Oyster harvesting, particularly, provided a solid living for residents.

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) - Savannah police are investigating the shooting of a teenager wounded by bullets fired into his grandmother's house while he slept on the sofa.
Savannah-Chatham County police say the 13-year-old boy was asleep when he got shot after 2 a.m. Saturday. Police said he suffered injuries to his shoulder and jaw, but the wounds were not considered life-threatening.
Detectives and patrol officers spent most of the night scouring the area for clues. The shooting happened in 1 of Savannah's south-side neighborhoods.
Police said the wounded boy lives in neighboring Pooler, but his name was not released.

While Ray Stantz, Peter Venkman and Winston Zeddemore move away, Egon Spengler stays in New York City, living in the Firehouse with Slimer and working as an instructor for the class "Paranormal Phenomena 101" at a community college. But when construction workers inadvertently release a new breed of ghosts, Egon has little choice but to form a new team of Ghostbusters using his students:

- We can't recommend Zengo.Ray1Dined on 9/29/2014Food was inconsistent. Same for service. Asked for sauces on the side, but waiter forgot to bring sauces. Two times served gin and tonic instead of the martini that was ordered. Short ribs were dry without sauces to mask the flavor. Duck tacos were very nice.Special Features:
- Best brunch spot in DCOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 9/28/2014Have been to Zengo multiple times, all for brunch. The best $35 you will ever spend. I've always had fantastic service- the delicious food comes out quickly, the drinks are always full, and unlike their sister restaurants (El Centro DF and Masa 14), they don't give you a time limit for brunch. If you haven't been, definitely try it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food Lacking For Such a Restaurant.EasyToPleaseDined on 9/27/2014Ceviche was by far the worst I've had. Chicken tasted sodium packed like something you would find at TGI Fridays. Short Ribs were tough. When I hear braised, I think very tender. It's a shame. Service was wonderful and the atmosphere is nice. For the price of it all, steer clear.Special Features:
- Love the fusion vibe!KeyKeyDined on 9/27/2014Zengo is a great place to grab a small bite to eat :)! The sushi and Ceviche were off the hook!Special Features:

- Excellent Dining ExperienceOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/27/2014My boyfriend and I had a wonderful dinner at Zengo. The food was delicious, our server was attentive, and the atmosphere was fun and lively. I would go back in a heartbeat.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Absolutely DeliciousLuckycharms412VIPDined on 9/26/2014Everything we had was delicious but the shrimp and vegetable pot stickers and carnitas noodles were exceptionally tasty. The food had strong flavors and combined the Asian and Hispanic ingredients wonderfully. We will definitely return.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Every dish a winner & great drinksBabichexDined on 9/26/2014We took our neighbors to dine pre-game and they were totally impressed with the menu, the drink options, the atmosphere (we had a window seat at sunset) and the wonderful tastiness of every item we ordered. The areas, the empanadas, and the lettuce wraps were all great, but the duck tacos were the star. ("Radish?" "Yes, radish."). They were blown away by the tequila flight option and raved over the classic margarita. The Day of the Dead beers were plentiful and my Acai Capirhina was marvelous. Thanks for making such a great impression on our friends. We all will be back during the upcoming season and beyond!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Noisy but great food and servicePaulDined on 9/25/2014Very noisy large group in the downstairs bar but food was great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Return visitKDWDOEDined on 9/25/2014We always go to Zengo before catching a concert at the Verizon Center or the occasional brunch. We have never been disappointed, the food, service, and ambiance of Zengo remains at a very high level.Special Features:
- Splurge brunchYolandaDined on 9/21/2014Great food and ambiance, but pretty bad service. Understandable for bottomless/unlimited brunch, but it's still really frustrating to have to ask multiple times to get a drink.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Review:OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 9/20/2014The food wasn't horrible. We took recommendations from our server and everything he recommended wasn't good at all.Special Features:
- Great FoodDCFoodieDined on 9/19/2014Margaritas, sushi, seafood. What's not to love? The restaurant upstairs is fun and spacious.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very noisy; poor acousticsHarryVIPDined on 9/16/2014I guess the noise level is a sign of success, but sadly, we can no longer partake. Between the music volume, the noisy good cheer of patrons, and the poor acoustics, it's become impossible to carry on a conversation without straining vocal chords. Our loss.
- Romantic even with kid in towmickeysloveDined on 9/13/2014We had tickets to a concert at the Verizon Center and brought our 11 year old daughter with us. We were one of the first ones in the restaurant but by the time we left the place had filled up. We were a bit concerned about finding something for our daughter to eat that she would like (fusion style is not one she is familiar with) but we ended up ordering 4-5 small plates for the 3 of us to share and it was great. Biggest winners were the sushi, chicken empanadas, ahi tuna tacos, and the shrimp fried rice. Wine selection was not elaborate but both wines by the glass we selected were enjoyable.Special Features:
- Good serviceLeokev23Dined on 9/13/2014Great service ,good food ....Ill definetly comeback....Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent Brunch SelectionOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/13/2014Loved the variety of food and drink, and service was superb. Took advantage of the bottomless brunch by arriving at 10:30am and staying through its end. Worth it!Special Features:
- Great food and energy but too noisyBlakeDined on 9/12/2014Zengo is a DC classic hot spot--where people from all walks of life around the city come together to wine and dine. I love it for the small plate, fun food, and diverse clientele. The new bar renovation has made it so much louder, and while the upstairs dining area isn't as loud, it's missing an intimacy element that would greatly enhance the experience.Special Features:
- Zengo No Go202MurphyDined on 9/11/2014Food and service were horrible. The railing up to 2nd floor should be wiped down multiple times during the day. Expand your sushi options. Service was horrible we had to ask repeatedly for water and our check. Not coming back - ever!
- My new favorite brunchJasonDined on 9/7/2014Let me start by saying that I never write reviews because I'm never really that impressed with a place to take the time. That changed with Zengo. Great location, almost no wait time, attentive but not overly bothersome service, excellent food, great selection, delicious mimosas, and a beautiful space. The $40 per person brunch gets you unlimited small plates and bottomless beverages. I found it well worth the cost - and you have to try the guava mimosas!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Enjoyed the foodCassieDined on 9/6/2014I really was pleased with my dining experience. The food was delicious and just spicy enough.Special Features:
- Delicious brunchVeggiefoodieDined on 9/6/2014Came here for the bottomless brunch- had a great time and ate a lot! Food was excellent and waitress was nice. Guava mimosa is the best drink on their menu :)Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Post-movie diningFormerFedVIPDined on 9/2/2014Dropped in after seeing "November Man" at the Regal Cinema. Made it inside in and to our table overlooking 7th Street in time to watch the rain begin. I got the Shrimp Lettuce Wraps and Pork Carnitas with wok-cooked noodles. Both very tasty. My girlfriend got the spicy Edamame XO and the Lamb Shank, which were also good. She got an order of the lobster roll to take home for the next day. We ended our meal with several flights of tequila and one of rum, which certainly should be tried. Had to point out that the bill priced those higher than the menu, but that was quickly corrected. We look forward to retuning to Zengo.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 8/31/2014Waiter was way too busy, barely visited out table as a result. There were very inebriated customers during brunch and the staff didn't know how to handle them. Most of the food came very fast but were very greasy/very salty. I'd say 3/10 dishes were good. It's good for quick and bottomless food and drinks.Special Features:
- All Time faveOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 8/31/2014Consistency in food quality and taste, service and value. One of my all time favorite DC restaurants!Special Features:
- PerfectRichDined on 8/31/2014I celebrated my son's birthday with a brunch at Zengo ... it was fabulous. The menu scared some of us, but proved to be liked by all. We all left with smiles and a buzz.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wow!WerebonerDined on 8/31/2014The restaurant did not look like much on the outside coming from the Gallery Place metro station, but when we entered the building it was just...wow.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bottomless BrunchkeliaynDined on 8/31/2014My husband and I tried a variety of drink options and plates included in the bottomless brunch. He was a fan of their bloody mary, but found the bloody maria resembled cocktail sauce (we ordered the shrimp ceviche to take advantage of that fact & they paired well). With regard to the small plates, the duck chilaquiles were our only disappointment (due to a scant amount of duck and lack of sauce on the accompanying bed of chips). We loved the brussel sprouts (though VERY salty), the short rib hash was delicious, and the two dishes that required seconds were the salmon benedict and the angry zengo roll. Arrive early for quicker service, or arrive later for a more laid back experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for LunchslwadeDined on 8/26/2014Went with co-workers for lunch not expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. The food was wonderful and I especially liked the Achiote-Hoisin Pork Arepas. I must note the french fries that came with the Cubano Sandwich were to die for. I'm not sure what spice they used to season the fries but they were the best fries I've had.Special Features:
- Fabulous Server - RobertothegreengypsyDined on 8/24/2014My sister and I brought our parents to Zengo for a 40th Anniversary celebration during brunch. We picked it because of the bottomless option to choose as many things off the menu as you like, and for the flowing mimosas! The place was REALLY LOUD, even though we were sitting at a table in the corner next to a window (great view!). The best part of all was that we had a fabulous server, Roberto. He was extremely busy, and pulled in a million directions, but hadn't it with grace. He congratulated our mom and dad on their longtime marriage commitment, and shared a bit about his own family. It made all the difference to have an attentive, relatable person guiding us through the dining experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bottomless brunchFoodcomaDined on 8/23/2014The food here was absolutely amazing and did not disappoint. I had been here for dinner and was very pleased so I knew brunch had to be just as good. The service was fantastic. The cocktails kept being filled without having to ask which in my book is a win during a bottomless brunch.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- convenient to verizon center, but .Xpat4everDined on 8/19/2014This place was very convenient for a pre-show (Verizon center) dinner. The food was sort of interesting although nothing fantastic. Don't get the Duck Fried Rice as it was very bland and dried out. I would try to find another venue next time.
- Very nice!adam71Dined on 8/16/2014The experience was great. When I told our server that we were there for our anniversary, she brought us sparkling wine with dessert, which was appreciated. We'll be back for the late night dancing!Special Features:
- UnimpressedemilyDined on 8/15/2014My boyfriend and I decided to try out Zengo thanks to their awesome looking menu, and the upcoming restaurant week. We both had really good drinks (lychee martini and sake sangria), but we were unimpressed completely with the food. The appetizers we had were alright, but our main courses were exceptionally sweet and the lamb my boyfriend ordered was almost inedible. Thankfully the waiter offered him a different dish - the tofu - which was fine, but also quite sweet and neither dish was spicy which they were advertised as. The desserts were also very "meh" - the churro was doughy, not crispy and the avocado panacotta was alright. Would not recommend except for drinks and appetizers.Special Features:
- Always a great choiceArlFoodieDined on 8/15/2014The food is consistently delicious and enjoy the cocktail list. One my favorites in dc.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Vegans & meat-eatersMAWGDined on 8/15/2014We had a party of 4, 2 vegans and 2 omnivores. It was Friday morning, and we needed a guaranteed place to eat Friday night. Zengo took reservations. Their food was fantastic; the vegan food had as much thought put into it as did the regular dishes. Highly suggested.Special Features:
- Not like it used to bebblyDined on 8/15/2014I had not been to Zengo's in a long time, it seems that to menu has changed to a point that I will not be returning. There were not enough Asian/Latin fusion choices anymore. I really did not enjoy my food at all the waiter was slow.
- Latin Asian Fusion??BettySoupDined on 8/13/2014As an Asian, the taste is hard to like. It's obviously a popular place, but the food was unimpressive. Server kept up selling me to get something other than tap water.Special Features:
- Great service!LorelaiDined on 8/12/2014Went with a friend for restaurant week. There was a mistake on the menu and the waitress gave us complimentary drinks as a result!Special Features:

Steve Jobs profile: Apple's hard core
Published on Saturday 10 January 2009 18:53
NORMALLY, if the busy CEO of a company doesn't give the keynote address at a trade show, it barely warrants a mention outside the specialist press. But when it's Steve Jobs, the main man at Apple, and the annual trade show is this month's Macworld Expo, the absence is enough to wipe billions off share prices, set blogs buzzing, inspire acres of newsprint and become the lead item on television news broadcasts throughout the US.
Jobs, who is worth $5.4bn and was last year named as the most powerful businessman in the world by Fortune Magazine, is no ordinary chief executive. He is synonymous with Apple in a way that no other major businessman – with the possible exception of Sir Richard Branson at Virgin – can match. The 53-year-old is also a sick man, having survived a bout of pancreatic cancer, a condition that is usually terminal, in 2004. So when the autocratic head of Apple appeared gaunt and ailing last year, the rumour mill went into overdrive.
Not that this would matter were Apple an ordinary business – but it's not. Last year, on the back of the Macbook, iMac, iPod, iPhone and iTunes, it overtook Google as the biggest beast in Silicon Valley. By common consent, this is almost completely down to Jobs's marketing nous, personality and dedication to accessible ergonomic technology.
Apple is almost unique in having no structure in place to replace Jobs. The lack of a chosen successor is an implicit acknowledgement that the company's founder is the company. That would be an oversight in any organisation, but for one that is worth $92bn, employs 20,000 people, turns over $25bn a year and posts an annual profit of $3.5bn, it's a state of affairs that concerns the whole of America.
It didn't help when, last September, the respected financial news agency Bloomberg accidentally published Jobs's obituary, giving him the opportunity to say that "rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated". Yet with the share price dipping by 45% in six months on the back of fears about Jobs's health and investors taking issue with Apple's assertion that his condition is "a private matter", he was forced to make a statement.
"As many of you know," he wrote to the 'Macolyte' community, "I have been losing weight throughout 2008. Fortunately, my doctors think they have found the cause – a hormone imbalance that has been 'robbing' me of the proteins my body needs to be healthy. It will take me until late this spring to regain (the lost weight, but] I will continue as Apple's CEO during my recovery." The company's shares immediately leapt by 4%.
It's easy to see why the markets hold Jobs in such high regard. He started Apple with uber-geeky hacker and workmate Steve Wozniak in 1976, but it isn't his only success story. In 1986 he bought the start-up company The Graphics Group (later renamed Pixar) from Star Wars mogul George Lucas for $10m, selling it to Disney 20 years later for $7.4bn after hits that started with Toy Story and included A Bug's Life, Monsters Inc and Cars, as well as the Oscar-winning Finding Nemo and The Incredibles. The 2006 buy-out of Pixar also gave Jobs 7% of Disney's shares, making him the iconic company's biggest single shareholder.
But if Jobs is good at making money, making friends doesn't come as naturally. In fact, making enemies seems far easier, as he's proved with a succession of very public slanging matches, such as those with former Disney CEO Michael Eisner and Dell founder Michael Dell. In 1985, with the home computer market saturated, Mac sales dwindling and Jobs under pressure, his capacity for alienating those around him came to the fore. Things eventually got so bad that Jobs gave the company's board an ultimatum: make him CEO instead of John Sculley, the experienced hand he headhunted from PepsiCo, or Jobs would walk. In the end, Jobs was so disruptive that in mid-1985 the board told Sculley to sack him. That was the start of almost 11 years away from Apple until the company bought Next, Jobs' new computer company in late 1996 for $429m and reinstalled Jobs on Apple's board. True to form, Jobs orchestrated a boardroom coup within months, replacing Apple CEO Gil Amelio in July 1997.
While he is driven, persuasive and charismatic, Jobs also has a reputation as a demanding, erratic and temperamental personality, who at one stage was notorious for firing employees he met in the lift or on the escalator. His unofficial biographers Jeff Young and William Simon put his macho management style down to his upbringing in California by adoptive father Paul Jobs, a large and aggressive repo man.
Jobs took exception to Young and Simon's book iCon, banning every title by their publishers from Apple's network of shops. It's the sort of action that led one Forbes writer to characterise him as a narcissistic jerk and Fortune magazine to describe him as "one of Silicon Valley's leading egomaniacs". His habit of suing small websites for leaking details of unreleased products has consolidated his reputation as a thin-skinned control freak.
Not that Jobs is one-dimensional. After taking a summer job at Atari when he dropped out of Reed College (having learned little apart from the appreciation of calligraphy that was a cornerstone of Apple's success), he backpacked around India and experimented with drugs, particularly LSD. Wozniak remembers Jobs coming back from India with his head shaved, wearing Indian clothing and having converted to Buddhism, to which he still adheres. "Steve was into everything hippy," says Wozniak. "He ran around shouting 'free love, man' and eating seeds."
Yet there is no doubt that he has a ruthless streak, revealed in both his private and public lives. He now has three daughters with wife Laurene Powell, but when an early girlfriend become pregnant he said he was sterile and denied paternity, only later recanting. As recently as September, Jobs and fellow directors were forced by a San Jose judge to pay back $14m in "irregular options payments", with costs of $9m, while Apple had to take a $84m hit.
That's small change to Apple. Almost bust several times in the past 20 years, it now has $25bn in the bank and no debts thanks to Jobs's belief that customers will pay a premium for products that look good and are relatively easy to use. In the last three months of 2008 alone, that philosophy helped Apple sell 2.61 million computers, 11 million iPods and 6.9 million iPhones.
Jobs continues to drive Apple forward by remaining ahead of the game. There are rumours of an iWatch. "There's an old Wayne Gretzky quote that I love," said Jobs of a favourite ice hockey player. "It is: 'I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been'."
• Music obsessive Jobs went out with Joan Baez, largely because she had gone out with Bob Dylan.
• Tim Berners-Lee wrote the software for the web on a computer made by Next, the company set up by Jobs after he was fired by Apple in 1985.
• Jobs' favourite band is The Beatles, hence his company's name. A long trademark battle with The Beatles' record company, Apple Corps, over use of the word "apple" to sell music was only recently settled.
• In 1984, Jobs purchased Jackling House, a 14-bedroom Spanish colonial mansion in California. He lived in it for 10 years despite the only piece of furniture in the living room being an old BMW motorbike.
• Jobs is rarely seen in public without a black, long-sleeved turtleneck made by St Croix, Levi's 501s and New Balance 992 trainers.
• Jobs described his LSD phase as "one of the two or three most important things (I have] done in (my] life".

GREENUP COUNTY, Ky. (WSAZ) -- A mother came home Wednesday afternoon to not only find police cars at her house, but also learn her son is accused of selling drugs.
Like many in Kentucky, the Frazier family loves their U.K. basketball, so much so they converted their garage into a Wildcats shrine.
The F.A.D.E. Drug Task Force says their son, 29-year-old Richard Michael Frazier, sold drugs at the garage to one of their undercover agents.
Wednesday investigators executed a search warrant at the garage on Rockgate Road in Flatwoods.
"We found synthetic narcotics, paraphernalia, things like that," Hankins said.
Flatwoods Police Chief Kraig Hankins says Frazier wasn't home at the time, now there is a warrant for his arrest. He is being charged with trafficking in a controlled substance-Heroin.
"It's a good bust today," Hankins said. "It's to let drug dealers in the area know we're not going to put up with this."
Frazier was just released from jail last month.
"He's a good kid," his mother Diana said. "He just -- maybe he goes around with some wrong people."
Diana says she's worked hard to try to help her son.
"He tests clean," she said. "I've tested him. I'm like a stalker mom."
Diana also says she's devastated to see her son stuck in a seemingly never-ending cycle.
"It's very difficult," she said. "I don't know what words to use. It's very difficult to see it go this way."
She says her son has already completed one rehab program and left another.
Diana says she and her husband talked with him on the phone Wednesday evening, and he said he would turn himself in.

In mid-2009, both Towers Perrin and Watson Wyatt agreed to what
was billed as a "merger of equals,†creating one powerhouse that
would possess twice the headcount and global presence of either
originating firm. By the time the merger was consummated at
the start of 2010, Towers Perrin and Watson Wyatt had each shifted
their headquarters from Connecticut and Virginia, respectively, to
a central location in New York City, and established Towers
Watson's singular public status on both the New York Stock
Exchange and the Nasdaq under the new symbol "TW.†The
company's management similarly comprises an even balance from the
previous firms, with Watson Wyatt's John Haley taking the
chairman and CEO seat and Mark Mactas of Towers Perrin named
president and COO.
TP + WW = 4eva?
The formation of Towers Watson also brings together the decades of
experience and history each of its predecessors brings to the
table. Towers Perrin had been in operation since 1934 as an
insurance and pension advisory, although it, too, came together
from earlier firms, whose history dated as far back as 1871.
Since the 1940s, Towers Perrin published its TPF&C Pension Tax
Manual, which became standard issue for the Internal Revenue
Service for tax law guidance. Much of Towers' finance and
insurance actuarial services were handled by its Tillinghast
division, the largest practice of its kind in the world, which
offered consultation and software solutions to insurance and
financial services companies.
Watson Wyatt was no stranger to mergers itself; the firm was the
famous product of an alliance between two longstanding actuarial
legends, The Wyatt Company and R Watson & Sons. Regarded
as the world's oldest actuarial firm, R Watson & Sons began
in 1878 and grew to become an industry leader largely through
advisory work for the British government in establishing social
insurance programs. The Wyatt Company, meanwhile, was
established as a U.S. actuarial concern in 1946 and rapidly
expanded its practices and global presence through the following
decades. The two joined forces in 1995 to operate under the
name Watson Wyatt Worldwide, with Wyatt Company's branches
handling North American business and the R Watson & Sons group
holding covering Europe. The alliance between them was in
name only, and it wasn't until 2005 that a formal merger brought
them together to form a singular entity.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- There were administrators at the University of Louisville who were nervous the first time Charlie Strong faced the media as the head coach of the Cardinals.
Coaching the team? No worries. Recruiting? Never a doubt. Handling being the face of the program? Hmmm.
If you remember that day, you remember Strong did fine, tearing up at several questions, pausing on others and generally looking like a guy who needed practice handling that part of his game as skillfully as he handled everything else.
Look at Charlie Strong today.
He marched into his introductory press conference at the University of Texas Monday and delivered a performance that had to make the folks at the Longhorn Network exhale.
He smiled. He joked. He shared his vision. He credited many people who have helped him navigate the coaching road, dropping names like Lou Holtz, Steve Spurrier and Urban Meyer.
He talked about closing down the Texas state borders to rival recruiters. He acknowledged that winning national championships is the standard with the Longhorns – and didn't back away from expectations.
He flashed the "Hook 'em, Horns," sign several times while saluting the terrific work Darrell Royal, Mack Brown and others have done creating the Texas football brand. He told Brown, the coach Strong is succeeding, that he will always be welcome around practice.
But the first thing that Strong did?
He cracked a joke and then credited the University of Louisville – athletic director Tom Jurich, his players and the community – for giving him the opportunity of a lifetime.
"I was just hoping I brought this cold weather with me that it would block out some of this media here today," Strong said. "I see that didn't work."
Laughter followed. Strong smiled as broadly as I have seen Charlie Strong smile. That's called nailing the first impression.
"I'm so happy for that (U of L) program," Strong said. "I will always know this: When you leave a program, you want to leave it in better condition than it was when you got it. That's what we did at the University of Louisville."
Strong did that. But make certain that you do not forget the flip-side of that equation: The University of Louisville and this community left Charlie Strong in better condition to succeed than he was when he arrived here from Florida more than four years ago.
Better condition to recruit and organize an effective coaching staff. Better condition to make game decisions on the sidelines. Better condition to control an entire locker room and guide players toward doing the right things.
But, most of all, Strong is better prepared to handle the ceremonial parts of the job.
It's not the most important part of the job. The first line goes to winning. The first line always goes to winning.
At Texas, that means winning national championships. At Texas, they'll expect Strong to at least play for a national title before his initial five-year, $25 million deal gets extended. More than a few people will expect him to win one during that period.
Beating Oklahoma and winning Big 12 titles will only be a millimeter lower on the list. Strong is already getting questions about renewing the Longhorns' rivalry with Texas A&M.
But managing the media, honoring the traditions of Texas and making certain that the necessary big shots are regularly reminded that they are indeed big shots are three other things that Strong cannot blow off.
I don't think he will. He's a savvy guy who worked a lifetime to get his first shot from Jurich and U of L president Dr. James Ramsey. He knows Texas is not Louisville. That's the reason that he took the job. He won't have to worry about cub reporters covering the spring football game, even if the Longhorns' basketball team somehow stumbles into the Final Four one day.
It's true that Strong had little interest in anything more than superficial media interaction in Louisville. He was never hostile. He simply wasn't motivated.
After his first season at U of L, a national college football yearbook asked me to write a profile of Strong for its 2011 edition, a story focused on the solid job Strong did during his first season with the Cardinals. Translation: National publicity that would make Strong look like a rising star.
Most coaches would embrace the chance to clear a 30-minute window in their calendars. Strong turned down multiple requests for a one-on-one session. When he finally agreed to talk, it was during a group session with five other guys.
Strong was not adversarial. He was simply indifferent.
I don't believe Strong will be indifferent in Texas. I believe he will be a prime-time success. He'll understand that the demands in Texas are different than the demands in Louisville.
Just as Strong left the Louisville football program primed to keep winning, Strong's experiences here put him in a better position to succeed in Texas. I believe he will.

The World Land Trust (WLT) had early success with an innovative approach to habitat conservation. Below are WLT's first conservation projects, which are all successfully completed and protecting acres of threatened wildlife habitat. With thanks to the WLT's supporters our partners now have a lasting legacy, which they continue to manage for conservation.
Coastal Steppe Project, Patagonia
The 15,000 acre (6,075ha) Ranch of Hopes (Estancia la Esperanza) was purchased in 2000 and is now an official Wildlife Refuge protecting coastal steppe habitat for guanacos and other wildlife.
Philippine Reef & Rainforest Project
The third project of the WLT gave supporters an opportunity to become a 'founder owner' of the tropical paradise Island of Danjugan, saving it from housing development. In 2000 the loan had been repaid and fundraising completed.
Programme for Belize
WLT's first project, presented the challenge of linking development to improve peoples standard of living and conservation. The project was a great success and by 1996 more than 250,000 acres (101,175 ha) had been saved.
Rainforest Action Costa Rica
The second project of the WLT focused on the rainforests of Costa Rica. The Trust helped purchase an area of 5,000 acres (2,023 ha), which is now incorporated into Corcovado National Park.
Support one of WLT's successfully completed projects:
Although land purchase for these projects has been successfully completed, they still need support for ongoing management to ensure the above habitats remain permanently protected.

In order to obtain a better structural framework for understanding the catalytic mechanism of carbonic anhydrase, a number of inhibitor complexes of the enzyme were investigated crystallographically. The three-dimensional structure of free human carbonic anhydrase II was refined at pH 7.8 (1.54 A resolution) and at pH 6.0 (1.67 A resolution). The structure around the zinc ion was identical at both pH values. The structure of the zinc-free enzyme was virtually identical with that of the native enzyme, apart from a water molecule that had moved 0.9 A to fill the space that would be occupied by the zinc ion. The complexes with the anionic inhibitors bisulfite and formate were also studied at neutral pH. Bisulfite binds with one of its oxygen atoms, presumably protonized, to the zinc ion and replaces the zinc water. Formate, lacking a hydroxyl group, is bound with its oxygen atoms not far away from the position of the non-protonized oxygen atoms of the bisulfite complex, i.e. at hydrogen bond distance from Thr199 N and at a position between the zinc ion and the hydrophobic part of the active site. The result of these and other studies have implications for our view of the catalytic function of the enzyme, since virtually all inhibitors share some features with substrate, product or expected transition states. A reaction scheme where electrophilic activation of carbon dioxide plays an important role in the hydration reaction is presented. In the reverse direction, the protonized oxygen of the bicarbonate is forced upon the zinc ion, thereby facilitating cleavage of the carbon-oxygen bond. This is achieved by the combined action of the anionic binding site, which binds carboxyl groups, the side-chain of threonine 199, which discriminates between hydrogen bond donors and acceptors, and hydrophobic interaction between substrate and the active site cavity. The required proton transfer between the zinc water and His64 can take place through water molecules 292 and 318.

[CAH2_HUMAN] Defects in CA2 are the cause of osteopetrosis autosomal recessive type 3 (OPTB3) [MIM:259730]; also known as osteopetrosis with renal tubular acidosis, carbonic anhydrase II deficiency syndrome, Guibaud-Vainsel syndrome or marble brain disease. Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disease characterized by abnormally dense bone, due to defective resorption of immature bone. The disorder occurs in two forms: a severe autosomal recessive form occurring in utero, infancy, or childhood, and a benign autosomal dominant form occurring in adolescence or adulthood. Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis is usually associated with normal or elevated amount of non-functional osteoclasts. OPTB3 is associated with renal tubular acidosis, cerebral calcification (marble brain disease) and in some cases with mental retardation.[1][2][3][4][5]
[CAH2_HUMAN] Essential for bone resorption and osteoclast differentiation (By similarity). Reversible hydration of carbon dioxide. Can hydrate cyanamide to urea. Involved in the regulation of fluid secretion into the anterior chamber of the eye.[6][7]

Eugene M. Violette was born in Pittsville, Missouri, Sept. 4, 1873. He received degrees from Central College, Fayette, Missouri and the University of Chicago.
During his teaching career, Professor Violette also served as visiting scholar at the Universities of Texas, Colorado, and Minnesota. He remained on the faculty at
LSU until his death, March 26, 1940.
Violette was a prolific writer, authoring numerous articles, studies, and papers. Among his works are English Constitutional Documents Since 1832 and Spanish
Land Claims in Missouri. He was an active member of state, regional, and national historical associations. He served as program chairman, chairman of the
executive committee, and member of the editorial board of the Mississippi Valley Historical Association. Violette also served on several committees of the American
Historical Association.
Violette is credited as one of the forerunners in the establishment of the "Dixie Museum" in the LSU Memorial Tower, or Campanile; it later became known as the
Historical Museum. The museum was comprised of two smaller exhibitions, each housed in a wing of the Tower. One held material of a military interest and the
other contained items related LSU history.
The collection is divided into two major subgroups: the Eugene M. Violette Papers and the Museum Records.
Eugene Violette Papers contain correspondence, printed material, writings, and memorabilia pertaining primarily to LSU and campus activities. Correspondence is mainly of a professional nature that includes official University memoranda and reflects Violette's association with the University, professional organizations, publishers, and his colleagues. Printed items include Louisiana newspapers and clippings related to Louisiana, football, and World Wars I and II. Printed items also include booklets and imprints pertaining to a variety of topics including sugar cane and early LSU history. Writings include notes, drafts of professional papers presented at conferences, short biographical sketches, and a partial manuscript of a book. Memorabilia include posters, handbills, flyers, and programs concerning student politics, football, social functions, campus events, and religious organizations.
Museum Records consist of correspondence, much of which concerns donors and museum equipment, historical manuscripts, and textiles and artifacts. Among the historical papers are printed items; land documents of Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana (1841-1881); legal documents; an autobiography of James Starr (1889) reflecting 19th century life; and photographs of individuals and buildings, most of which are unidentified. However, photographs do include one of Abraham Lincoln (n.d.) and two New Orleans scenes (ca. 1847). Historical manuscripts also contain correspondence, including two Civil War letters and a letter from a United States congressman from Mississippi (1875) reflecting upon the political scene during Reconstruction.

text: DULUTH, MN (KDAL) - What residents think about the quality of life in St. Louis County and how they think the county is doing in providing critical services will be part of a survey to be mailed out next week. The survey will help guide future county decisions on budget and policy. About 2500 county residents will be selected at random to receive the survey packet to fill out and return. St. Louis County is partnering with four other Minnesota counties to produce the survey conducted by the National Research Center.
