Cetus Corporation
|Public (under CTUS)
|Emeryville, California
|Betaseron, Proleukin, PCR
Cetus Corporation was one of the first biotechnology companies. It was established in Berkeley, California in 1971, but conducted most of its operations in nearby Emeryville. Before merging with another company in 1991, it developed several significant pharmaceutical drugs as well as a revolutionary DNA amplification technique.
Cetus was founded in 1971 by Ronald E. Cape,[1] Peter Farley, and Nobelist Donald A. Glaser. Its early efforts involved automated methods to select for industrial microorganisms that could produce greater amounts of chemical feedstocks, antibiotics, or vaccine components. By the late-1970s, however, three new revolutionary techniques had been developed: recombinant DNA, monoclonal antibodies, and gene expression, the foundations of the biotechnology industry. In order to enter these new fields, Cetus raised $108 million in an Initial Public Offering in 1981, the largest IPO to that date.
Its first large development project, in conjunction with Triton Biosciences, was the successful cloning, expression, modification, and production of beta-interferon. Unfortunately, the resultant protein did not live up to its expectations as a broad-spectrum anti-cancer drug, and only much later was it approved for use to treat symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis.[2] The product is now sold under the name Betaseron.
The company's flagship product was Interleukin-2 (IL-2), an important modifier of the immune system. Starting in the mid-1980s, the protein was cloned, modified, expressed, and purified in large quantities for clinical trials. The drug showed promising effects in treating renal cancer, but also had significant side effects on patients. In 1990 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) refused to approve the drug for clinical use, asking for additional information.[3] It wasn't until two years later, after Cetus had been sold, that IL-2 was approved. It is now distributed under the name Proleukin.
The company also had a broad effort to research and develop techniques for DNA Diagnostics. Collaborations were made with Perkin-Elmer for diagnostic instruments, and with Kodak for commercial diagnostic kits. It was here that the technique of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) DNA amplification was conceived by Kary Mullis. The technique has been widely used in DNA research, forensics, and genetic disease diagnostics. Its inventor received the Nobel Prize in 1993, the only one awarded for research performed at a biotechnology company.
The delay in FDA approval for IL-2 created a major funding crisis at Cetus, which had been spending a considerable fraction of its investments to produce and test the drug.[4] The company's CEO resigned six weeks later, and patent rights to the PCR process were sold to Hoffman-La Roche. Losses continued, and in 1991 the company was sold to Chiron Corporation.[5] Chiron continued the development of IL-2, which was finally approved by the FDA in 1992. Chiron also collected the scattered rights for the production of beta-interferon, which was approved for clinical use in 1993.

Teens Check into KSP Academy for Ultimate Driving Skills Training
Date of News Release: 09/07/2011
(Frankfort, Ky.) -- Thirty-three high school students from thirty schools throughout the state checked into the Kentucky State Police Academy in Frankfort today for the 9th Annual 'Drive To Stay Alive' program.
'Drive To Stay Alive' (D2SA) is a four-day defensive driving academy for teens that combine classroom studies and road course tests in an effort to reduce teen deaths on Kentucky roadways.
In 2010, there were 21,870 teens driving collisions resulting in 4,378 injuries and 83 deaths.
The 'Drive To Stay Alive' program is designed to reduce these statistics explains Capt. David Jude, Commander of the KSP Public Affairs Branch.
"The training includes hands-on driving maneuvers that take place on a professional driving course covering topics such as skid control, backing skills, multiple turns and lane interchange, evasive maneuvers, off-road recovery, and controlled braking," he notes.
"The students will also get the chance to use a driving simulator during classroom instruction, which allows students to mimic multiple driving situations like seasonal driving (snow/rain) and driving while using a cell phone or texting," says Jude.
Jude advised that classroom instruction includes seat belt safety, vehicle dynamics, crash causation, distracted and aggressive driving, and other safety initiatives. Students also receive training in how to present this information in their local communities upon their return home.
According to Jude, the real potential of the D2SA program begins after the students return to their schools.
"The students are teamed with an experienced state trooper to spread the safe driving message to the student body in each school and to their community as well," he says.
"The effectiveness of the program is based on the concept that a message conveyed by a fellow student carries more weight with other students and is therefore more memorable."
KSP has scheduled a 'Media Day' event at the McKinney Skills Driving Complex in Richmond on Sept. 10, 2011 from 12:00 2:00 p.m. Members of the media are welcome to drive the course, video course activities and interview students and KSP staff.
Students attending D2SA are from the following counties: Barren, Breathitt, Bullitt, Cumberland, Edmonson, Fayette, Floyd, Franklin, Grayson, Hart, Henry, Jefferson, Jessamine, Kenton, Knott, Laurel, Lincoln, Logan, Menifee, Mercer, Rockcastle, Shelby, Taylor, and Webster.
For more information about the D2SA Academy, contact Kentucky State Police at (502) 782-1780.

Apps find nearby concerts based on users' musical tastes
Music lovers looking for a nearby concert can turn to apps that detect their location and list nearby live events based on the type of tunes they and their friends like.
Apps such as Bandsintown and Songkick scan fans' music libraries on their mobile devices and iTunes, along with music streaming services such as Spotify, Pandora and SoundCloud, to learn musical preferences so fans never miss a show.
Bandsintown also shows users which bands their friends are heading to see.
"There are two reasons why someone might go to a concert. The first is that they like a particular style of music or the artist. The second is that it's a social event with friends," said Julien Mitelberg, CEO of New-York based Bandsintown.
The app makes recommendations for concerts nearby and notifies users when friends indicate they are going to see a show. Users can also invite friends using the app, which is available worldwide for iPhone and Android.
Songkick, also available worldwide for iPhone and Android, gathers information from ticket vendors, websites and newspapers to compile its database of concerts.
An app from music streaming service Rhapsody, called Rhapsody Concerts, shows upcoming concerts nearby and lets users stream a band's albums before deciding whether to buy tickets.
"Our customers like to go see live music. But there weren't really any services out there that combined an unlimited catalog of songs with live music discovery," said Paul Springer, senior vice president of product at Rhapsody International, which is based in Seattle.
Thrillcall, which started four years ago, lets users buy tickets for any concert in every major city from its iPhone and Android app.
The company also introduced exclusive offers in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago and San Francisco that allow fans to meet the band, bypass lines, and buy VIP tickets and merchandise.
Matthew Tomaszewicz, co-founder of Thrillcall, said one of the app's main benefits is that users can buy tickets to shows in two clicks. About 100,000 concerts are available in the app at any time.

The Little Shop That Could; Six Years Blossoming With Kapok
It's really incredible, KAPOK, a very curated shop of design clothing and goods just celebrated its sixth year of business this past month. From its very humble roots in Tin Hau, 6 years later, KAPOK has grown into Hong Kong's premier go-to shop for the world's latest craftsmanship, creativity, and design.
Curator and Shop Owner, Arnault Castel and Me.
Over the years Kapok has had very successful collaborations with many brands, artists, and creatives like Japan's Fennica, Whitespace HK, Ilustrator Tania Willis, Furniture maker Naihan Li, Artist partners Lio Beardsley and Hei, U Hei Sing and was one the first shops in Hong Kong/Globally to carry Diptyque Candles, Seventy Eight Percent Bags, MISMO, Daydream Nation, and Wm J. Mills & Co, Common Projects, and VOID Watches JUST to name a few. Phew!
Kapok's 6th Year Anniversary Party, earlier this Month.
And recently, Kapok presented its latest fun collaboration for the Holidays with KIOSK (NYC), a collection of things from New York and around the world that are designed and defined by necessity and cultural needs but generally go "unnoticed". It's whimsical, playful, and lovely.
A Hotel Key Ring from Michigan.
A red sugar bowl from Portugal.
A Wiffle Ball Set from Connecticut.
And Portuguese Beer Glasses.
Additionally, Kapok is now the first store to launch a new brand of watches called MEMENTO, the creation of Kapok's Baptiste, his brother Jeremy, and their partner Thomas.
I love it. These MEMENTO watches are very #JJStyle.
The watches are defined by their Sandal Wood (from South Africa) and Maple Wood (from China) finishes. It is also aimed at guys who like to wear anything from jeans to a more unique and gentlemanly "dandy" look.
Bap's MEMENTO watch below.
The great thing about these watches is that the natural wood finish and hairline stainless steel and alloy allow for color and tone changes over time due to your relationship with the watch. The movement inside is a two hand movement by Miyota Co. Citizen quartz from Japan.
Bap and Me chatting about MEMENTO.
Also spotted at the party; Shai Levy, designer of Seventy Eight Percent and Henry Temple holding a Seventy Eight Percent Bag.
VOID Watch's Davd Ericsson and Carrera's Khan-Linh
HK Magazine's Hana R. Alberts in Cobalt, the color of the season.
Pals, Juan, Michael, and Kapok's Chris
Kapok's friends and in complimentary Navy and Red, also colors for the season.

Tsarnaev mother on death penalty: 'I love my precious Dzhokhar'
The mother of accused Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was distressed to learn of the possibility that her son, 20, may face execution if convicted of carrying out the deadly April 15 terror attack.
Minutes before U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder announced he would pursue the death penalty for Tsarnaev, Zubeidat Tsarnaeva spoke with Russian-stationed CNN reporter Nick Paton Walsh.
"I love my son, my precious Dzhokhar. That's it, please, leave me alone. I have nothing more to say. I want to say a million times I love my son, I love my Allah, I love the prophet Muhammad, and I love my Dzhokhar," said Tsarnaeva.
Tsarnaeva has maintained her sons' innocence after Tsarnaev was captured in April and subsequently charged. Tsarnaeva's late son Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed during a shootout with police.
Days after the attack, Tsarnaeva spoke with CNN about the possibility that the Boston Marathon bombing was a hoax, and suggested that the U.S. may have orchestrated it.
She currently lives in Russia.

February 03, 2014, 11:09 AM — Galina Louw is a career Superwoman. But you'd never know it from looking at her original resume. The eight-page document highlighted her day-to-day grind through IT project management and business analytics positions to her current role as a CIO. And it highlights that grind in excruciating detail without emphasizing her major strengths -- cleaning up big messes created by other people.
International IT Appeal
Unfortunately, Louw's intense work schedule didn't leave much time or energy for cleaning up her resume. That's where executive career coach, strategist, publicist and founder of Executive Promotions, LLC Donald Burns came in.

TEAMS: San Antonio Spurs
Via Larry Brown Sports:
Stephen Jackson had to leave Thursday's Spurs-Knicks game at Madison Square Garden after spraining his ankle falling on a waitress who was serving Mayor Bloomberg. We're not even joking.
The injury occurred late in the first quarter of the game after Jackson attempted a 3-point shot from the corner. As Jackson was backing up while tracking his shot, he stumbled over a waitress who was crouched down to serve Bloomberg.
Adding insult to literal injury, Jackson missed the shot. He was 0-for-2 in his three minutes of action before leaving the game with a sprained right ankle.
Surprisingly, this sort of thing happens during NBA games more than you would think.
Video via The Point Forward
Well...the obvious joke is that the Mayor was not getting a large soft drink!
I guess you could say Stephen fell for the waitress.
Leave it to Bloomberg the blooming idiot to screw something else up. Just another case of New Yorkers not being the brightest people in the country electing this moron to anything including a dog catcher. Come on New York you can do better than Blooming Idiot.
Get the people away from the edge of the courts. There should be a minimum of 4 - 5' distance away from the out of bounds. This includes camera personnel.
Too bad Jackson didn't take out the waitress and mayor Bloomberg!!!!

ZVex Vextron Series Mastotron Fuzz Guitar Effects PedalThe ZVex Mastotron Effects Pedal, another in the Vextron series, is a heavy silicon-based fuzz pedal with a lot of controls—volume, tone, pulse width, fuzz, and relax/push. The relax/push controls the input impedance to the pedal. The guitar effects pedal knobs let you adjust for quieter pickups, or softer guitars, and turn it towards the relax setting as you put in active pickups, and turn it all the way to the relax setting for special effects and for line-level signals if you are re-amping a bass off a recorded track. The Mastotron's fuzz control is a wide control over the fuzz depth. Pulse width control goes from a narrow pulse all the way to a nearly square wave pulse. The tone control shaves off the high end. A sub switch lets you set how many subs you have with a "2-1-3" arrangement while the dedicated volume knob controls how loud the guitar pedal gets. Plug your guitar (or any effect's output) into the input jack. Plug the output into an amp or other effect's input. Set the amp for a warm clean tone on bypass. Turn on the pedal and rock out. Using a guitar or bass, turn the Relax/Push knob down a bit if you need to until the fuzz sounds immediate and tight. Turn the Vextron Mastotron's fuzz control until you're happy, and set the PW to square (counter-clockwise). Adjust the tone for the treble amount you want, and use the sub switch on 3 for full heavy subs for bass or 2 if the subs are overloading your amp.Set your amp on your favorite clean tone for the most blistering results, while a distorted sound can be very cool as well. Play it into your favorite distortion pedals or direct into the amp for different textures. Try putting weird effects into the ZVex Mastotron pedal and adjust the Relax/Push knob for best interfacing.If the performance of your fuzz pedal seems diminished or the LED becomes very dim, it's time to change your battery. Remove the four screws on the bottom of the effect pedal and carefully remove and replace the old battery, putting it back exactly in the center of the pedal on edge so that it is gripped tightly by the lid when it is screwed back in place.
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
* Price guarantee valid on all new in-stock merchandise sold by an authorized U.S. Dealer. Guarantee does not apply to discontinued, blemished, damaged, closeout, open box, refurbished or auction items. You will be contacted via email shortly after submission of request.

ALBANY, GA (WALB) – Second district Congressman Sanford Bishop kicked off his campaign Monday. Dozens of people packed his Albany headquarters to support him.
One of his biggest supporters is someone who's garnered national attention herself throughout the past week. Shirley Sherrod has worked with and for farmers for decades now, and for much of that time she's worked hand in hand with Congressman Bishop. She says it's in the best interest for farmers and for Georgians to keep him in office.
Shirley Sherrod's voice was weak today as she addressed Bishop supporters."Haven't been able to stop talking since last Monday," she said.
But her message at Bishop's Headquarters in Albany came in loud and clear. "He has my vote," she said. "I will do all I can to make sure he is reelected in this district and I hope you'll do the same."
In her years working with farmers, Sherrod says Bishop has fought for them and that's why she'll fight for him. She said, "I can't think of anyone else who's worked so hard for this district. I know of the work he's done all through the years and especially since I was in the position at rural development."
A position she no longer holds after being ousted when her words were twisted by a blogger, and she was forced to resign. Bishop says that was a bad move by the administration. He said, "I think it was a snap judgement. I think there was a rush to judgement. I think it's very regretful."
But he's proud to have Sherrod's support and will continue to support her, as he seeks to keep his post. He said, "I'm running for a job. I'm asking for the people to renew my contract. I'm not running against anybody, I'm running for a job."
A job he hopes to continue once the election is over. Bishop is against Republican Mike Keown who is from Thomas County. Keown received 80% of the votes against his republican opponents in last week's primary.
Monday, the National Republican Congressional committee highlighted this race and moved it into contender status, meaning they believe Bishop may have a challenge on his hands with Keown.

Woodworker's Journal
Rob Johnstone: I think you hit the sweet spot with your finish on the first try. I think you might mean something like walnut oil when you say "wood oil" and that is a good choice. You might want to think of something like a linseed oil or even tung oil. I really like the beeswax topper. It will make the ring feel really smooth and nice.
Tim Inman: This question is always a toughie. There isn't actually much of any surface "finish" that will hold up to prolonged exposure to body oils, humidity and heat -- plus whatever other stuff you put your hands into. Wood rings kind of speak "natural" so, if I had just one suggestion, I would say to coat/soak the wood in a thin formulation of epoxy resin. It will truly seal the wood for you. There are several brands on the market. I'd try to find one that is intended to "consolidate" rotten wood in exterior restoration projects. It is thin, soaks in well, and sets slowly. Afterwards, return the ring to the lathe to make the final cuts and polish it out. Otherwise, beeswax is a great "natural" surface. It looks good, feels good, smells good -- and is easy to reapply. I keep bees, so maybe I'm biased.

American Express teams up with Twitter
Have something to say about McDonald's? You might just get a discount.
By Daniel James Hayden IV, Benzinga Staff Writer
American Express (AXP) and Twitter have teamed up to offer discounts when American Express cardholders send advertising messages to their Twitter followers.
It's a pretty clever idea. The companies can create a small army of advertising minions at very little cost. And Twitter users feel like they're getting a deal as well. The only people getting the short end of the stick are the Twitter followers who get subjected to all the shilling.
American Express cardholders can sync their cards with their Twitter accounts at sync.americanexpress.com/twitter. Once the two accounts are linked, the cardholders will be eligible for special deals at participating merchants such as McDonald's (MCD), Best Buy (BBY) and Amazon's (AMZN) Zappos.com.
First, the cardholder must send a tweet that includes a merchant's special hashtag. The tweet doesn't have to be an outright advertisement; it just must include the hashtag. When that happens, a deal gets loaded directly to that person's American Express card. The cardholder then makes a purchase from the participating merchant, and the American Express card account automatically receives a credit within days.
The new program is a win for American Express because it adds to member benefits and creates a deeper relationship between the company and its customers. It also places Twitter in a position to profit not only from e-commerce, but from sales at traditional brick-and-mortar businesses.
"American Express is turning Twitter content into commerce by connecting card members to merchants and delivering real world value to both," American Express executive Ed Gilligan said.
American Express reportedly planned to launch the program with just five participating merchants. However, the program attracted so much attention that nearly 20 companies have already signed on to take advantage of Twitter's viral marketing potential.
The partnership is one example of how Twitter could leverage its massive online user base to turn a profit. And that's good news for investors who are anticipating a Twitter IPO but have concerns about how the company will generate significant profits.

Jury selection continues today for Drew Peterson's trial on charges that he murdered his third wife, Kathleen Savio, in 2004.
Five men and three women were seated late Monday after 12 hours of questioning. By midday today, all 12 jurors had been selected, but four alternates were still to be selected. The pool of more than 200 jurors was impaneled nearly three years ago and told to avoid all media coverage of the Peterson case, an order some would-be jurors admitted they ignored.
Check here throughout the day for continual updates from the courtroom.
3:42 p.m. Peterson jury selection complete
The final jury has selection has been completed, with 12 jurors and 4 alternates. Opening statements are scheduled for July 31.
3:30 p.m. Jurors include student, bus driver, National Enquirer fan
The 12 jurors and one alternate selected for the Peterson jury have been identified only by number in court. Their answers to attorney questions provide a few other details. Some of the jurors include:
A radio broadcasting major at Columbia College who lives with his parents.
A Lockport man who has been married for 15 years.
A male plant manager for a printing company.
A man from Plainfield who once owned a construction company.
A secretary who describes herself as an "avid poet." She divorced in the 1990s and wrote on her questionnaire "all divorces are unhappy" in response to a question about the nature of the breakup. She likes to read true crime stories.
A crossing guard from Lockport who said she likes to read mysteries and usually is able to solve them before the end of the book. Asked if she would try to do the same in the Peterson trial, she responded, "No. You have to wait 'til the end."
A Joliet bus driver who lives with his parents.
A reader of two daily newspapers who she said she instructed her husband to scan them for news of the Peterson case before she looks at them. "And if there's anything in them I shouldn't be reading, he destroys the paper."
A New Lenox woman who stated on her questionnaire that she reads the National Enquirer, but when asked whether she believes what's in the tabloid, she smiled and said, "No."
A divorced man who was a law school student for about a year and a half before dropping out.

--Surface helped drive 11% revenue growth in Windows unit in the quarter
--Yahoo partnership contributing to revenue per search at Bing
--Enterprise deals including more software, in addition to server and tools
(Updates beginning in the fourth paragraph with CFO comments from earnings call.)
By Steven D. Jones and Nathalie Tadena
Microsoft Corp.'s (MSFT) fiscal second-quarter earnings slipped 3.7% as the software company reported weaker sales in its business and entertainment divisions, though revenue in its core Windows business strengthened.
The latest period marks the first quarter to include sales of the company's new Windows 8 operating system and its Surface tablet, which both debuted in late October and contributed to an adjusted 11% increase in Windows division revenue. Several analysts have estimated around 1 million Surface tablets sold over the holidays, about half the number expected, but Microsoft expressed confidence in the launch.
"Surface was part of the overall Windows 8 story," Chief Financial Officer Peter Klein said in an interview. "Several things drove the 11% growth in Windows, and Surface was one of them."
The Redmond, Wash., software company has been squeezed by a shift in consumer and business spending to tablets and smartphones and away from PCs. Several companies, including chip-maker Intel Corp. (INTC) and Dell Inc. (DELL) were hoping Microsoft's new Windows 8 operating system would improve PC demand.
Mr. Klein told analysts on the earnings call Thursday that retail sales of Windows 8 upgrades, Surface and multiyear license agreements were the three major contributors to the 11% revenue gain for Windows. Microsoft has increased Surface production in advance of the introduction of the Surface running Windows 8 Pro and distribution of the original Surface to 14 additional countries, he said.
Sales of Windows Phones by all manufacturers are on a pace four times higher than a year ago, and users have downloaded more than 100 million apps for the devices, he said.
Shares of Microsoft slipped 1.6% to $27.19 after hours Thursday. Through the close, the stock is down 5.8% over the past 12 months.
Mr. Klein said there were centers of strength in PC buying, with business demand growing more than consumer, and emerging-market demand growing faster than in developed markets. Dozens of new PCs and the more powerful ultrabook laptop computers coming to market this year also should spur buyer interest. Microsoft's own Surface Pro, running a more powerful version of the Windows operating system, is coming to market in the coming days.
Revenue for online services, which includes the company's Bing search engine, increased 11% in the period, largely thanks to an increase in revenue per search, said Mr. Klein, although he declined to share specific numbers. Microsoft partners with Yahoo Inc. (YHOO) in the search business.
"We're seeing benefits now from the Yahoo partnership start to show through in our revenue per search," he said. "We're very pleased with the progress there."
Revenue for the company's servers and tools products, which form the backbone of enterprise networks and private clouds, was up 9.5%, while the segment's profit advanced 8.8%.
The unit benefited from "more deals and more product sold within those deals," said Mr. Klein. Customers are frequently buying utilities, such as SharePoint for document sharing, Exchange for email and messaging, and Lync for collaboration at the same time they purchase Windows for an enterprise, he said.
At the business division, which earns most of its sales from Microsoft Office, sales fell 9.8%. The segment's profit declined 15%. Microsoft is poised to launch a new edition of its Office software this spring. It introduced Office 365, the cloud version of the software, last year.
Cloud services also are boosting revenue at the group because a "cloud purchase will sort of mirror a multiyear annuity," Mr. Klein said. Cloud customers have high renewal rates and frequently buy additional services when they do so.
Microsoft--whose software has long been used in most personal computers--has been looking to better compete in the fast-growing mobile market with the launch of Windows 8, which runs on both traditional PCs and tablet computers
The latest period included $1.3 billion in revenue deferred for the company's Windows upgrade offer, Office upgrade offer and presales, and the entertainment and devices division's videogame deferral, which was partially offset by the recognition of $783 million of previously deferred revenue for Windows 8 presales.
For the quarter ended Dec. 31, Microsoft reported a profit of $6.38 billion, or 76 cents a share, down from $6.62 billion, or 78 cents a share, a year earlier. Excluding the impact of deferred revenue and revenue recognized for Windows 8 presales, adjusted earnings were 81 cents a share.
Revenue increased 2.7% to $21.46 billion. Adjusted revenue totaled $22 billion.
Analysts polled by Thomson Reuters had projected earnings of 75 cents a share and revenue of $21.53 billion.
Total operating expenses jumped 10%.
Microsoft's Windows and Windows Live division saw revenue climb 24%. Adjusting for the deferred revenue and the recognition of previously deferred revenue, the division's revenue increased 11% for the quarter. The segment's profit improved 14%.
Sales at the entertainment-and-devices business, which houses the Xbox video game console, declined 11% though profit was up 15%.

Paul Georgy serves as president/CEO of Allendale, Inc., a worldwide agricultural advisory and research firm that provides agricultural commodity price research and risk management alternatives for producers, major food companies, international corporations, foreign governments, and major news vendors.
Good Morning! Paul Georgy with early morning comments for October 1, 2013 at 5:00 am. Grain futures are lower as traders deal with the US Government shutdown.
Weather conditions should allow for harvest to pick up over the next few days until another system moves through the Midwest late this week. The USDA says only 12% of the corn is harvested compared to 23% average. Only 11% of the soybeans are harvested, compared to 20% average. Crop conditions report showed an improvement of 3% to 53% in G/E category for soybeans. Corn was unchanged from last week at 50% G/E.
The USDA surprised the trade by putting corn quarterly stocks for the 2012/13 marketing year at 824 million bushels compared to the trade estimate of 681. Without any adjustments for yield or harvested acreage this data would suggest ending stocks for the 2013/14 marketing year will be near 2.0 billion bushel.
Soybean stocks were 16 million bushel higher than trade was estimating due to USDA increasing last year's production by 19 million bushel.
Traders are combining this news with harvest reports of larger than expected yields to provide selling pressure. A close in November futures below 12.80 would point to the 12.25 level as the next downside target.
The wheat stocks number was friendly compared to trade expectations. It appears feed usage of wheat replaced high corn prices during July and August.
Heavy rains in parts of Ukraine and eastern Russia are slowing winter crop seeding.
China is expected to be quiet as they celebrate their Golden Week Holiday which starts today and runs through Oct 7th.
Non-farm payroll data comes out on Friday and the Goldman Roll starts next Monday in soybeans.
The October WASDE report is only 10 days away. Trade will be honing in on the acreage changes and yield adjustments the USDA may make on the upcoming report. The release of this report, however, is being overshadowed by the government shutdown.
Livestock traders are shocked that the USDA made no adjustments for PED virus and only a had slight increase in herd expansion. Lean hog futures are testing support levels which are key to maintaining uptrend. December futures have support at 85.90. Pork cutout values were down .04 on Monday.
Cattle traders are concerned about demand as we go forward with the shutdown although beef cutout values were higher with choice up .62 and select up 1.46. The CME Feeder Index was up .26 to 159.63.

Most small businesses don't stick around for 50 years, so when Williams Hardwood Flooring made it to that important milestone, company president Jim Leslie decided to do something special: He commissioned chain-saw carver Michael Blaine of Winchester, N.H., to make a life-size sculpture of two installers hard at work.
Modeled on two long-term employees of the Akron, Ohio, company, the figures were hewn from the trunk of a 200-year-old oak tree. (The tree had been dying and was going to be cut down anyway, Leslie says.) The trunk was delivered to the Williams parking lot, where Blaine worked on it for eight days with three chain saws, each of which had a different bar and tooth pattern.
Leslie describes the resulting tableau — dubbed The Woodsmen — as a tribute to the men and women who've worked at the company over the years and made it one of the most successful flooring businesses in the region. — Patrick McCombe

Tech Crush Thursday: Garrett Camp
It's one thing to start a great company that people around the world use on a daily basis, but it is an entirely different thing to start THREE successful internet companies.
This week we are crushing on the man that did just that, Mr. Garrett Camp. Born in Canada, Garrett co-founded StumbleUpon in 2001, later moving the company to San Francisco in 2006. Just a year later, Camp and his co-founder, Geoff Smith, sold the company to eBay for $75 million. He continued to act as the company's CEO until May 2012 after he stepped down (he remains Stumbleupon's chairman) to focus on his another one of his ventures, Uber.
Launched in 2010, Uber is a mobile application that connects passengers with drivers of luxury vehicles for hire. The SF based company has raised over $50 million in funding and is solving transportation problems for busy city residents in San Francisco, NYC, Los Angeles, Seattle, Chicago, Boston, Washington D.C., Vancouver, Toronto, Paris, Berlin, Philadelphia, Dallas, London, Melbourne, and many more.
Don't worry, Garrett didn't stop there. He also started Blackjet, the company that helps consumers book seats on private jets faster than ever. If you struggle to find a last minute seat on a private jet traveling from New York to LA or South Florida, Blackjet is here to help. In 10 seconds, Blackjet will book your seat and guarantee seat availability. All you need is an invite code and you're good to go.
This 2007 recipient of MIT Technology Review's TR35 award, has one of the most impressive track records we've ever seen. What will he think of next? Only time will tell.

Tech Crush Thursday: Kevin Systrom
With over 100 million users (as announced Tuesday), Instagram has grown from two young guys renting desks, to a record breaking acquisition with Facebook. Although Instagram was launched a little over two years ago, we can't help but be impressed by the company's growth and success (not to mention we are more than slightly addicted to the app).
Welcome, Kevin Systrom, CEO and Co-founder of Instagram, to the TWF Tech Crush Thursday hall of fame! After graduating from Stanford University, Kevin got his first taste of the startup tech world as an intern at Odeo, which later became Twitter. He also worked at Google where he worked on a number of product as well as their corporate development. In 2012, Systrom and his Co-founder, Mike Krieger, sold the company to Facebook for an announced $1Billion. Although the sale went through, Kevin made sure that Instagram would continue to operate outside of Facebook. He also retained quite a bit of control over the photo-sharing company, allowing him to continue to make important decisions. For example, Kevin decided to remove Instagram photos from Twitter's news feed, not at the request of Facebook, but to bring users to Instagram's new website. Yes, there have been some controversies surrounding the app and recent changes, but with 100 million users in just 28 months, it looks like the man behind Instagram knows what he's doing.
Wish List Wednesday: iam+
We love our iPhones. In fact, we don't go anywhere without them. Why? Because taking pictures, sharing them, and then texting our best friends about it is what we do to fill time in between meetings — we love those sacred moments.

Check out this video we got from endgaget about the iam+ line.
Tech Crush Thursday: Adam D'Angelo
From Facebook CTO to Founder and CEO of Quora, Adam D'Angelo is well-known in the tech world to say the least. Launched in early 2010, Quora is a collection of questions and answers, edited and organized by users. Once answers are added, Quora users can up-vote or down-vote said answers, as well as suggest edits to fellow users, in order to measure the user's legitimacy.
Recently valued at $400M (according to TechCrunch), Adam has grown Quora into a household name. He also recently announced (just yesterday) that Quora is launching a blogging platform that automatically distributes posts to its Q&A site. Thanks to the company's voting system, homepage feed, and mobile text editor, anyone with quality content can find readership and grow their following.
We can't wait to see what else this young tech genius has up his sleeve. Until then, we will continue to get our answers for life's questions on Quora.

Fashion Icon Friday: Lily Cole
We can't quite put our finger on what's got us so riveted with this young beauty but Lily Cole has certainly wooed us. Discovered at the age of 14, she made her first cover only 2 years later when she landed British Vogue and has since worked with the likes of Alexander McQueen, Prada, De Beers, Marc Jacobs, and Christian Lacroix, just to name a few.
Her bewitching red hair and her pouty, unconventional appeal is what likely catapulted her to modeling royalty when in 2003 she found the spotlight and became one of the 'new faces' of the year in Italian Vogue. In 2004 she was named "Model of the Year" at the British Fashion Awards thereby landing the covers of 4 more international Vogue titles, a leading spot at Interview, and again one at Numéro. After making her name in advertising — by becoming the face of Rimmel London in 2009 — Lily has begun to take over the film scene where you can see her in St. Trinian's and The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, playing Valentina, alongside Christopher Plummer and the late Heath Ledger. She described that as the biggest role she'd ever done.
When she wasn't too busy being breathtaking, Lily found time to earn a Double First at King's College, Cambridge in History of Art. And she's also an ally for Western Shoshone, a group focusing in the work to stop gold and diamond mining, using her weight as the face of De Beers to push this initiative. Today, it's been noted that she's cozied up to the likes of Twitter creator and Square founder, Jack Dorsey — that pair surely brings a new element to the term "fashion tech"!
Happy New Year, everybody!
Tech Crush Thursday: Chris Sacca
When you're dubbed as "possibly the most influential businessman in America" by the Wall Street Journal, there is no questioning that you're going to get our attention. Chris Sacca is the brilliant mind behind Lowercase Capital, one of the largest venture funds in America with currently more than fifty consumer web, wireless, and mobile tech start-ups under its belt.
Chris began his career in venture funding in not-so-ordinary circumstances as he graduated cum laude from Georgetown University. He quickly began carving out his space in law and business when he became an attorney in Silicon Valley's Fenwick & West law firm, and later a Telecommunications, Media and Technology advisor to the 2008 presidential campaign to elect now incumbent, Barack Obama. After that he was a legal and corporate development executive at Speedera Networks, one of the world's largest streaming and digital media distribution companies, as well as Head of Special Initiatives at Google Inc. where he founded and oversaw their alternative and wireless divisions.
When he's not skiing or giving his time to charity, you can find Chris in the pages of Fast Company and Business Week as well as on networks like CNBC, CNN, NPR, and BBC as an expert in venture capital/capitalism, innovative entrepreneurialism, and value network development (a.k.a disruptive technology.)

LD: My iPhone (I know, typical), a pen + notebook (for when I want to take notes… old-school style), and matte lipstick.
TWF: When you were a kid what'd you want to be when you grew up?
LD: President of the United States. I'm not done growing up though.

LD: A writer - focused on tech, media, cultural vehicles, revolutionary catalysts… and President of the United States.
TWF: What do you love?

TWF: What are your go-to blogs for fashion & tech news info?
LD: Fashionista, Mashable, TechCrunch, & BusinessInsider.
TWF: Who inspires you?
LD: My mom. I think we inspire each other. She's always worked *super* hard to make sure we grew up in a home that we felt safe in and that we had the things we needed… even if some of those things were more wants than needs. My happiness and frustrations begin and end with her. Wait, is that bad? Scratch that last part.
TWF: Food. Do you have a favorite kind?
LD: Favorite kind: Latin-American, Spanish, Puerto Rican, Cuban, Brazilian… I love scouring Spanish Harlem, the Lower East Side and Washington Heights for dive spots where I can kick back, have a good drink, and feed till my heart's content. Carb-counting goes out the window on those nights!

TWF: What do you love most about working with Third Wave Fashion?
LD: Oh man, Third Wave Fashion is really special. The women I work with and the environment we've created is nurturing and creative. I can't imagine working anywhere else. Sorry, every other business in the world.
TWF: Do you love living + working in the tech scene in New York City?
LD: YEAH! I grew up here. NYC courses through my veins and I'm loving that startups are choosing to grow their identities here. The personality of this metropolis certainly contributes to companies' appeal and vigor.

Brass and bronze ingot makers see quiet demand from end-users through year-end, but say that a resulting flatness in the ingot scrap market might be punctuated by some restocking and competition from scrap substitution.
"We're in those really slow months," one ingot maker said. "Even though our business has been good, we're really holding back (scrap) purchases."
Scrap spreads for domestic ingot makers, or the discounts of scrap to terminal markets, narrowed early this week vs. two weeks ago, largely due to falling copper cathode prices as demand remained flat.

Interesting how many folk here use the running water method.
When washing dishes by hand I have always used a sink of hot sudsy water.
The dishes are scraped first of course, stacked and then washed in order depending on degreee of soiling.
ie glassware, flatware, teacups and so on to finish with pots and pans.
This is how my grandmothers and my mother did/do it and is also how I was taught in Home eco. classes at school.
Perhaps it is a product of a country frequently in drought where water is a precious commodity.
Also growing up with family who had been in their youth reliant on rain water tanks as their sole source of water
we used water "wisely" and to this day dripping taps or profligate use of running water causes me anguish.
It is highly probable that the fuel costs entered into the equation somewhere as well but as a child that side of it wasn't on my radar.
I do not see the point in turning a tap on hard, rinsing the coffee cup for 30 seconds and then putting it in the dishwasher.
And now of course all that training will be put to good use as our next home is dependent on rain water tanks as our sole water supply so I
do know how to cope.

Slide 1
This is a short video looking at the preliminary GDP estimate for the second quarter of 2013.
Slide 2
The preliminary estimate of GDP is based on the output approach that is the value of all final goods and services produced within the UK.
We will show the change in the latest estimates in Q2 2013, and look at the quarterly and the annual change.
Gross domestic product increased by 0.6% in Q2 2013 compared with the previous quarter. When compared with the same quarter a year previous, GDP was 1.4% higher.
However, it's worth remembering that data for Q2 2012 may have been affected by the changes made to the bank holidays due to the Diamond Jubilee. These changes resulted in one fewer working day in the quarter.
We can look in more detail at the GDP estimates by showing the change in the four main industrial groupings of the economy.
Firstly, the services industry saw an increase of 0.6% on the quarter, while the annual change showed an increase of 2.1%.
The production industries increased by 0.6% compared with Q1 2013, but fell by 0.9% on the year.
The construction industry saw an increase of 0.9% this quarter, but comparing Q2 2013 with Q2 2012 construction output fell by 1.0%.
Finally, the agriculture industry increased by 1.1% this quarter and also saw a fall on the year of 5.6%.
Slide 3
We can now look at the contributions to the latest quarterly change in GDP from the four main industrial groupings. Contributions of each industry are not based solely on their quarterly growth, but also their size relative to the whole UK economy.
Bringing up the pie chart; in 2010 the services industries accounted for 77.8% of the UK economy; the construction industry, 6.3%; production, 15.2% and agriculture accounting for around 0.7%.
So, if the services and the construction industries, for example, increased by the same number of percentage points in a quarter, the services industries would contribute a greater percentage of the total growth in GDP due to the relative size of the services industries.
We will now use this chart to see the contributions of the four main industrial groupings to GDP. Here is the 0.6% increase in GDP on the quarter and bringing on these bars, we can see that the agriculture industry had a marginal positive contribution of 0.01 percentage points to GDP, while production had a stronger contribution of 0.08 percentage points to GDP. Similarly, the construction industry pushed GDP up by 0.05 percentage points, but the main contributor to growth in Q2 2013 was the services industries, with a positive contribution of 0.48 percentage points. Putting all these together, you arrive at the total increase of 0.6 percentage points.
This is the first time, since Q3 2010 where all major categories of output have had a positive contribution to quarterly GDP.
Slide 4
Now if we look at changes in the sectors since the first quarter of 2008, the quarter before the start of the 2008/2009 downturn.
The black line shows an index of 100 with the quarter we are comparing with: Q1 2008, referred to as the pre-contraction peak. So when the line is below the hundred mark, the industry was lower than in Q1 2008 and when it is above, the industry was higher.
Bringing on the line for overall GDP we can see that the output was declining throughout 2008 as the economy contracted. Total output then began to increase, though still remains below its pre-contraction peak.
As well as this, the line also shows the slight zigzag movements as a result of a number of special events, such as the Diamond Jubilee, as well as Olympic & Paralympic Games.
If we fade out GDP, we can look at growth in the four main industry groupings which make up total output.
Throughout the period the services industries line has been above the line for GDP, suffering a weaker contraction during the downturn and performing better than the economy as a whole, it nears its pre-contraction peak in the latest quarter. The fact that the lines for services and the whole economy are so close reflects how services accounts for over three quarters of the economy's output.
On the other hand, the production and construction industries have not performed as well. Experiencing a much larger drop in output, both industries are still some way off their pre-downturn peak and continue to pull down the UK's overall output levels.
Agriculture, as an industry, has experienced a very different path. Recovering beyond its pre-contraction peak in Q1 2011, output began to contract once again later that year and is now around 9% below what it was in Q1 2008. However, due to its size relative to the whole economy, such volatility has had little impact on overall GDP.

A Toronto man convicted of multiple sexual assaults in the late '90s faces a string of new sex-assault charges after police received information from new victims following another arrest last month.
Gordon Stuckless, who was convicted in the late 1990s of sexually abusing boys during the time he worked as an usher at Maple Leaf Gardens, arrived at Toronto's 52 Division Friday morning and was charged with nine counts indecent assault, five counts of gross indecency and buggery.
He was released on a promise to appear in court.
Stuckless's arrest comes a month after Toronto police charged the 63-year-old with six counts of indecent assault of a male, assault and possession of a weapon.
Police said the charges stem from allegations that Stuckless assaulted an 11-year-old and 13-year-old boy - now both grown men - in the 1970s. At the time, Stuckless was a teacher and a volunteer at a Toronto community centre and sports club.
In 1997, Stuckless was sentenced to two years less a day after he was convicted of sexually assaulting 24 boys at Toronto's Maple Leaf Gardens, during a 19-year period that ended in 1988.
His sentence was later increased to five years. He served two-thirds of the term before he was paroled in 2001.
With a report from CTV Toronto's Tamara Cherry.

George Oswald Mitchell (G.O.M.) was one of the relatively small number of
British soldiers who served right through the First World War from 5th August
1914, when his Bradford Territorial Battalion was mobilised, up to and beyond
the Armistice on 11th November 1918. His view of the war was initially that
of a private in the infantry, seeing front line action in the spring and
summer of 1915 with the 1/6th Battalion West Yorkshire Regiment in and around
Neuve Chapelle as well as the Ypres salient. He was then, as a corporal, one of the first members of the Royal Engineers Special (gas) Companies, launching the massive gas attack on the first day of the Battle of Loos on 25th September 1915. Promoted to sergeant, G.O.M. took part in many other gas attacks during the remaining three years of the war. He was finally commissioned as a second-lieutenant before being demobilised in 1919. He kept a trench diary from the day he landed in France until 25th September 1915 and subsequently noted the places in which he served and the engagements in which he took part. The diary and notes have been lodged in the Department of Documents at the Imperial War Museum. There is a copy of the diary in the Royal Engineers Library at Chatham.
Selected extracts from the diary have been quoted in Philip Warner, The Battle of Loos (1976, republished 2000): Donald Richter, Chemical Soldiers (1994): Judith Cook, Priestley (1997): and Niall Cherry, Most Unfavourable Ground – The Battle of Loos 1915 (2005). There are more extensive extracts, together with an account of G.O.M.'s background and family and descriptions of the engagements in which he fought, in Jeremy Mitchell, Shrapnel and Whizzbangs - A Tommy in the Trenches 1914-18, illus. and maps (2008).
