Soon, thousands of Minnesotans will get a letter from their health insurance providers about refunding some of the money paid in last year due to the new health care law -- but where that money will go is a little complex.
The 80/20 plan requires any insurer that spent less than 80 percent of revenues on actual health care an d more than 20 percent on administrative costs like executive pay will need to issue a rebate for the difference -- and that means companies are shelling out more than $1 billion.
That rule was pushed by Sen. Al Franken, who says Minnesota's HMO non-profits should be a model for the nation.
More than 123,172 residents in this state will be getting letters about the rebates; however, most of that money won't go to individuals. It goes right to the boss, so that employers can offset future premiums.
Smaller businesses, like Chris & Rob's Chicago Hot Dogs, may not be relishing the Affordable Care Act. Owner Rob Bubnecay got a letter on Tuesday too, but it wasn't a rebate. Instead, it was a notice that his rates are going up 7 percent in anticipation of the industry changes.
"I thought I would qualify for the Obama small business plan and offer it to employees," he said. "In order to do that, I'd have to cut my manager's salary by a third."
Bubnecay said his employees would need to be below the poverty level to qualify for the small business insurance plan.
So, some get rate hikes while others get rebates -- but even those who do get rebates may not see a dime if their employers get to keep it.
The rebate in Minnesota is about $160 per household, which is about average since most insurers in the state already come close to the 80/20 split. Vermont will see highest rebate at $807 per family, followed by Alaska and Alabama.

The federal government is often seen as a laggard in IT, a bloated bureaucracy that runs well behind the innovations of private industry. But look closely and you'll find programs that are truly groundbreaking.
Take the AKO (Army Knowledge Online) portal and messaging platform. It began life in the 1990s as a way for the Army's top brass to swap notes and chat with one another online. It's now one of the world's bigger intranets and is set to spearhead the entire U.S. military's move to network-centric operations.
And then there's HSPD-12 (Homeland Security Presidential Directive-12). That's the tongue-twisting moniker for an effort to establish a single, governmentwide security pass that will give holders access to any government building or computer, and it's something many believe could finally shake hidebound agencies loose of their stovepiped past.
The Army's ever-expanding portal
The AKO had just 97,000 users in October 2000, a year after it went live, but usage ballooned after Sept. 11, 2001, and the start of conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq. There are now more than 1.8 million account holders. On March 17 this year, a new record was established with nearly 755,000 log-ins in one day.
One major problem in establishing the AKO was accessing the data contained in the large number of legacy systems the Army had built around the world. Physically replacing or otherwise integrating those systems using middleware would have been prohibitively expensive, so the Army instead opted for a single data warehouse using Oracle.
For redundancy, the Army eventually built a second datacenter. But instead of making it a costly fail-over asset that would sit unused until a failure occurred at the primary center, it uses automation software so both centers can collaborate in configuring and coordinating the growing AKO infrastructure.
Any account holder can access AKO from any computer and use the built-in services, such as e-mail and IM. That's proved a boon to morale and soldiers' readiness, according to Gregory Fritz, AKO deputy director.
"Many Army organizations have information for and from their family readiness groups on AKO," Fritz says. "That allows the unit to share information with their families and allows families to stay in contact with other families within the organization."
It has also allowed "communities of interest" to exchange information and lessons learned, which has proved invaluable for those soldiers either already deployed or who are preparing to deploy so they can better understand the issues they are facing, Fritz says.
And it's added an edge to the Army's vaunted organizational capability, which (believe it or not) showed itself during last year's Hurricane Katrina emergency.
The day after the hurricane hit the Gulf Coast, Army CIO Lt. Gen. Steven Boutelle ordered an online assistance center. Three hours later, a Katrina information center opened on AKO, providing a virtual community center where Army, Reserve, and National Guard members and their families could contact one another and find financial and housing assistance.

TEAMS: San Francisco Giants, Detroit Tigers, St. Louis Cardinals
Hunter Pence hit a bizarre, two-run double, Matt Cain pitched his second clincher of October and the San Francisco Giants won their record-tying sixth elimination game of the postseason, beating the defending World Series champion St. Louis Cardinals 9-0 in Game 7 of the NL championship series Monday night. Marco Scutaro matched an LCS record with 14 hits in the series and Pablo Sandoval drove in a run for his fifth straight game. The Giants returned to the World Series two years after winning it all, getting the final out in a downpour. The Detroit Tigers, who have been waiting on their opponent since finishing a four-game ALCS sweep of the Yankees last Thursday, get another trip to the Bay Area after clinching the division series in Oakland.

Securaplane's wireless-controlled cameras are easily retrofitable, according to Steffen Spell, vice president of sales, marketing and customer service for the Tucson, Ariz.-based company. In fact, the cameras still need wiring for power but they can tap into power wires already installed for wingtip and empennage lights, for example.

Long gone are the days in which a generation could be defined by a single voice. In fact, if anything, millennials are defined by the cacophony of voices. Equipped with the means to broadcast both philosophical musings and trivial overshares at the drop of a hashtag, we can all be self-styled Gloria Steinems.
But being a chorus member doesn't cut it for Hannah Horvath, Lena Dunham's simultaneously self-deprecating and bombastic character on HBO's just-add-Tampax instant hit Girls.
It's been six episodes since the April 15 pilot, when our 24-year-old zeitgeist hopeful announces to her piggy bank parents, "I think I might be the voice of my generation." The twittersphere was ablaze over whether or not that's so, with few signs of a consensus. But what has become rapidly clear is that Dunham (who writes, directs and stars in Girls) does have one thing working in her favor. She is indeed the voice of her generation — on television.
American television has established itself with the capacity to act as a visual time capsule for a generation and its subcultures. And yet, a historical irony of mainstream media is the conspicuous absence of the tastemakers of the moment: the 20-somethings. It's easy to understand why; to tell our stories with any authenticity would be too raunchy for broadcast networks and too disheartening for just about anyone else. As TIME noted in a successful marketing campaign, millennials are "overeducated, underemployed, wildly optimistic."
Dunham and her cohorts (among them executive producer Judd Apatow) have instilled those very characteristics in the leading ladies of Girls. Botched job interviews, gay ex-boyfriends and mortifyingly awkward sex: the Carrie Bradshaw dream is over and the Hannah Horvath reality has set in. (The death/disappearance of a peripheral character named "Carrie" on last night's episode was only another nail in the coffin.)
The show is paving the way with a genuine, gritty and, above all, charming portrayal of recent college grads, holding a mirror up to their quality-conscious audience and tackling the very issues that plague us with brutal honesty.
That's proven to be a heavy cross to bear, though, as viewers and critics demand of Dunham an increasingly authentic and holistic depiction.
One criticism that splays the show's digital dialogue is how it portrays Brooklyn as June Cleaver's white-bread stomping grounds. Slate contributor and cultural critic Debra Dickerson called it a "cop out" that Dunham would create a show with "an abundance of chicks with normal bodies, but somehow no negroes."
Dunham has vowed to remedy this limitation and others like it in the second season, as evidenced by Donald Glover's presence in the first week of shooting for season two. What remains to be seen is whether Girls will be able to quench viewers' desires for both ground-breaking "accurate" representation and killer entertainment; rarely do the two go hand-in-hand (hat tip to Mad Men).
Dunham is a well-intentioned storyteller and I only hope that we don't lose quality narrative to the pursuit of a more diverse cast. As a group of NPR broads noted on Pop Culture Happy Hour, a token black friend might actually kill the show's realism in depicting the truth that white girls do tend to stick together.
Race issues aside, this polarizing romp has stirred an immensely charged dialogue that is worth celebrating in and of itself. Mashable reported that in its very first week on the air, Girls ranked #6 in Trendrr's Cable Top 10 shows that garnered the most social media buzz.
As we enter an exciting era of social television viewership, we ought to relish content that provokes a reaction, and a multifarious one at that.
Trendrr also tracks the positive sentiment amidst the buzz, and in that first week Girls had a 35% index — the least positive sentiment of any show on the cable or broadcast charts. It's a markedly contentious dialogue, but that's exactly what fuels this show. Not only is Dunham a voice of a generation, but she's inciting new voices to join in this global discussion. And that's worth a whole lot more than 140 characters.

Loner Bird
price: $175.00
I really enjoy the color combination in this particular painting. I was actually inspired by a blue and green painting in a Martha Stewart Home Magazine. She had it placed above a red toile couch which I never would have put together and it looked fantastic. I find that a lot of my inspiration comes from home decorating magazines and I hope that this little number can add a spark to one of your rooms. I chose the title "Loner Bird" because the blue color and the one bird make the painting appear desolate. Quiet almost.

Initial research
Our project pursue its design research agenda investigating digital and analogue forms of computation in the pursuit of systemic design applications that are scenario and time-based. Proto-Design considers controls systems as open acts of design experimentation, examining production processes as active agents in the development of architecture.

Digital experiment
Advances in computational tools such as computational fluid dynamics software have led to more detailed simulations of building performance. However, building simulation tools have often only been used as evaluation tools with intuition still trumping the generative capabilities of such tools. Andrew Marsh and Azam Khan, both researchers at Autodesk's Environment & Ergonomics Research Group, suggested that "the most common building simulators used today are based on patterns created in decades long past as monolithic systems."1 As fluid dynamics simulation move to real-time based models, their abilities are moving from simple evaluation tools to becoming generative tools that can be truly integral to the design process.

Physical experiment
Physical experiments aimed at producing qualitative architectural effects that exhibited the performance of latent building systems. In focusing on fluids as the primary medium for the conditioning of space the material experiments were concerned the expansion and contraction of matter as fluids passes through it. Expandable materials required investigations into polymers that were both synthetic and natural with a primary focus on latex, silicone and sometimes acrylics. The fabrication of such materials often required casting and moulding and the creation of composite materials in order to assemble different physical properties such as rigidity, flexibility, expandability, and the ability to pass fluid into a single material. Experimentation was divided into six categories:
[1] Glands [2] Menbrane [3] Veining [4] Storage [5] Structure [6] Arduino View more
Site - ANTAYLA, TURKEY
In aiming to create an architecture that incorporates fluid based building systems with a particular focus on issues of conditioning space and human comfort, it is important to choose a sight in which the architecture, or the prototype, flourishes. Since we are following an ecological model in the way the systems both work or grow together, the site should have qualities which encourage distinction during the generative process. While the prototype could be seen as a universal series of event based processes, it is the relationship of the prototype to the site's environment that would yield the greatest amount of generative effects. Considerations taken into account for deployability are distinctive climates (seasonal and daily variation in temperature and precipitation), urban conditions with a high degree of shelter-investment towards architecture, and the role of water both socially and culturally. View more
PrototypeThe prototype building was designed with the aim to experiment and run the whole design process for the first time, following generative phases, which come together as part of the system. Furthermore, the prototype was born siteless, due to that, the context did not affect the project trying to be fitted or regionalized, instead the process took a direction engaged with an experimentation of forms, size, heights and transitions between interior and exterior spaces in order to take advantage of the oportunity as a demonstration of the effectiveness of the system with an ability to by applied to any kind of building. Moreover, the program was kept as general as possible, that of the public and social domain and for a mixture of uses and variety of spaces. View more

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12-months. Learn more. TheStreetRatings.com Analysis: TheStreet Quant Ratings rates Dow Chemical as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its compelling growth in net income, revenue growth, solid stock price performance, attractive valuation levels and good cash flow from operations. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company shows low profit margins. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Chemicals industry. The net income increased by 230.4% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from $734.00 million to $2,425.00 million.
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 2.8%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 0.4%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- Powered by its strong earnings growth of 240.00% and other important driving factors, this stock has surged by 37.42% over the past year, outperforming the rise in the S&P 500 Index during the same period. Turning to the future, naturally, any stock can fall in a major bear market. However, in almost any other environment, the stock should continue to move higher despite the fact that it has already enjoyed nice gains in the past year.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 154.14% to $3,741.00 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, DOW CHEMICAL has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of -7.17%.

SANDSTONE, Minn. (KFGO AM) -- A man shot and killed during a home invasion in Sandstone in eastern Minnesota is a former Grand Forks resident with a lengthy criminal history.
23-year old Gypsy Watts died at the scene.
Watts was 19 and living in Grand Forks when he committed several convenience store robberies in 2009.
He used a golf club and threatened to kill one clerk.
Under a deal with prosecutors, he was sentenced to four-years in prison.
Watts was shot and killed after he and at least one other person broke into the man's home planning to rob him.
Pine County authorities have arrested three persons of interest in the case.

By a 2-1 vote, the majority upheld the regulations. But Circuit Judge Marsha S. Berzon dissented, writing:
The majority does not acknowledge how radically its holdings alter our law, creating a legal structure which will make it far easier to shut down discourse in public parks and other traditional public fora. Democracies survive and grow through public conversations among their citizens. For this reason, we have always viewed any limitations on speech in traditional public fora with extreme skepticism. [The majority's] opinion departs from that long tradition. I respectfully dissent.

Governor Rick Snyder announced on Monday the appointment of Jack Martin to replace Roy Roberts as emergency manager of Detroit Public Schools.
Martin is a certified public accountant, native Detroiter and DPS graduate.
"He was the chief financial officer at the U.S. Department of Education," the governor said. "He helped us in Highland Park Schools, and he's been helping us as chief financial officer for the City of Detroit."
Snyder said Martin will take over where Roberts left off after his two year tenure during which he helped the struggling district make strides.
The governor said Roberts reduced the deficit by $251 million and produced balanced budgets.
DPS has also slightly increased its graduation rate, test scores have improved, and there is now a long-term strategic plan.
"Serving as emergency manager of Detroit Public Schools has not only been the toughest job of my career, but it has also been by far the most rewarding," Roberts said.
"In terms of financial structure, it has definitely improved," said Keith Johnson.
However, the Detroit Federation of Teachers president said academic performance should be better. DPS is still one of the worst performing urban districts in the country.
Martin said that is one place he plans to focus.
"If we look at the performance of our high school graduates, I think there are far too many of these kids that are not prepared for meaningful employment. They're not prepared to go into a college academic program. They may be reading at an eighth grade level or lower. They're not even prepared to go into our military with its increasingly more complex weapons systems," he said.
Martin said he does not plan any major changes. His first order of business will be to meet with school staff and students. Enrollment will be another focus, and he will continue to try to reduce the deficit, something that is expected to take at least two more years.

Thanksgivings Past, Embodied In Two Tiny Candles
Over the years, Thanksgiving has become my favorite holiday, but when I was little I was unsure about the whole thing. Unlike Christmas and Easter, which we spent with my huge posse of cousins on my grandparents' farm, Thanksgiving was spent with city relatives we only saw once a year. They were incredibly gracious hosts, but I was shy and there were no baby goats to play with. Anyway, the thing I loved about Thanksgiving was helping my parents decorate our own house — and I was always in charge of the tiny pilgrim candles.
Of course, my duties included more than just making the crucial decision of where to display the precious candles, though that was obviously a very important job. Even though we ate Thanksgiving dinner elsewhere, my parents always set a beautiful autumnal table for us to eat at the rest of Thanksgiving weekend, and I helped put on the tablecloth, fold napkins, carry silverware, and so on. And since my mom had me baking by age 3 (not using the oven, obviously — don't worry!), I had cornbread and rolls to take care of. Oh my goodness, the coziness. Even when I came home from college, it was all the same: a gorgeously laid-out table, rushing around, and cornbread to be baked.
But all of that, for me, is captured in those little pilgrim candles. I remember having to practically climb in the cupboard to find them, as they were always tucked away at the back behind tablecloths, candlesticks, and other grown-up-seeming finery. They always smelled so waxy — more than other candles — and their delicate coloring was a bit smudged even then.
Whenever I see similar Thanksgiving candles, all those memories come flooding back. But I also think, "What a terrible design for a candle! Who wants a flaming, headless pilgrim lurking on their holiday table?!" Clearly, they're not burnin'-candles — they're savin'-candles, and I hope my parents still have them. Is there an object that brings Thanksgivings of yore rushing back to you whenever you see it?

I just spit coffee all over my desk laughing about the "flaming headless pilgrims". My mom has/had similar candles but ours also included a turkey...equally gruesome if flaming and headless.
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday too, and I don't really have any one thing that I cherish or have a strong tie to, but it's the traditions of setting the table, using the best/favorite china, linens, crystal, etc... I love the finery of it...even the really traditional stuff, but I like to mix them with modern things to start my own traditions and create new memories.
My grandma always had those same candles for Thanksgiving (though I feel like the lady's dress was a different color, but I can't remember what color). I know my mom still has them.
Thank you! I knew I wasn't the only one who was averse to lighting candles in the shape of people or animals (basically anything with a face). Nothing says Christmas spirit like flaming gnomes, right?
Figurine candles are like eating animal crackers or gingerbread men.
Muh ha ha ha.
I have them! only the dress is grey.
Had those same candles, AND the turkey, back in my youth, so those were ancient! Somebody gouged out the pilgrim's eyes at one point, so we got rid of them. (I think it was at "show and tell" at school -- I collected holiday candles back then, or rather my mother did claiming they were mine...)
I don' t have nostalgic Thanksgiving memories, and certainly no decoration or keepsake for the holiday. That is one of a very few "feasts" I prepare each year, though, and a few food items are simply required, either by me or by my partner. So, for us, the food is the thing.
We had those candles, too... we never burned them either. One year my cat took a bite out of the bottom of the pilgrim lady's skirt, so ours had these exceptionally charming cat teeth marks on her in the later years of my childhood. When we pulled them out each year we'd reminisce about the year Riley bit the pilgrim. Ahh, memories.
I loved those candles so much in my childhood, that when I saw them in the Vermont catalogue, I HAD to order them. Vermont Country Store? something like that...and they carry them every year
Oh, and they did indeed smell more waxy or something.
...and they have the Xmas choristers too
Lovely essay. What charmed holidays your family made! And the flaming candle heads thing is hilarious.
Our children's sitter made turkey placecards with pipecleaners and little pine cones with our kids. She lived to be 100, and our children are all grown up, and we'll always use those place cards.
Yup, we still have those candles, too. And the Christmas choristers. Not for burning. I love them, and I love Thanksgiving, too, I think because there are no presents involved to complicate things. Just get together, eat, talk, clean up, and go home.
Thanksgiving time memories.....getting old enough to crank the cranberries into the grinder for relish. You knew when you had arrived when you were allowed to do that and could pass down to younger siblings the chore of stirring the coloring into the oleo. OMG am I dating myself!
I love all of these comments, but @Rookie deserves special mention for dropping the term "oleo"- yes!!!

Atlanta police need the public's help to identify a man caught on a homeowner's surveillance video.
Zone 2 Lieutenant Rodney Woody said the man asked the homeowner about someone who didn't lived there.
He said that's one of the methods crooks are using to case homes in Buckhead, before they burglarize them.
"We've got five burglaries where they used a pillowcase. We are looking at similarities between all of those. That's not to say it's the same individuals, but we are looking for three white males driving a dark colored pickup truck," said Woody.
Once the crooks got inside, Woody said they took a pillowcase and loaded it with loot. Someone broke into Lee Richardson's 90-year old mother's home. They stole silverware, other valuables and ransacked it.
"That's about as bad as anybody can be," said Richardson.
Richardson said his mother has lived in her Buckhead home for 58 years. Since the burglary, she is now afraid to stay there.
"People just need to be very, very cautions right now," said Richardson.
Police said there is a recent spike in burglaries in Zone 2, but so far for the year overall burglaries are down five percent.
"It seems most of the victims have been older folks, and the neighborhoods are the well-to-do neighborhoods," said Woody.
In some of the homes, police said doors and windows were left unlocked and the alarm was not set.
"A blasting alarm may not get the police there in two to three minutes, but its going to alert neighbors and people are going to be looking," said Woody.

Banksy says the 104-story skyscraper "so clearly proclaims the terrorists won." He says the building "lacks any self-confidence."
Banksy likens it to a "tall kid at a party, awkwardly shifting his shoulders trying not to stand out from the crowd."
He says the essay was intended as a New York Times op-ed piece but the paper declined to publish it.
Times spokeswoman Eileen Murphy says, "We couldn't agree on either the piece or the art so it was rejected."
The artist on Sunday also tagged a building in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, with the words "This site contains blocked messages."

Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time is finally available, and with new plants, themed worlds, and more of the same great gameplay, this classic tower defense game sequel does just about everything right.
The original Plants vs. Zombies was a huge hit when it came out for iOS devices in February 2010. After more than three years, PopCap has finally released the sequel as a free-to-play game, but don't let the freemium model scare you -- in-app purchases are not required to finish the game.
Plants vs. Zombies 2 gives same great gameplay with new themed worlds (pictures) See full gallery
More of the same great gameplay
The object of Plants vs. Zombies 2 is the same as the original. You need to plant different types of offensive and defensive plants to try to prevent zombies from making it all the way to the left side of the screen. To grow your plants, you need sun, and sun power is gained through planting sunflowers that generate every few seconds. As in the first game, you'll need to touch the floating sun icons to add them to your bank of sun power.
But where you were defending your house from a zombie attack in the original, Plants vs. Zombies 2 sends you back in time to new worlds, with the themes of Ancient Egypt, Pirate Seas, and Wild West. These three worlds are ready to unlock in this first version of the game with more than 60 levels to play through total, but PopCap games promises more new worlds to come in future updates.
A little help from new power-ups
Plants vs. Zombies 2 should be very easy to pick up and play for just about anyone, but it can also get extremely challenging when the zombies start to fill your screen. In this sequel, the developer has added new features that give you a few extra options when the big waves of zombies are on the attack.
A new Plant Food button lets you supercharge one of your plants to do extra damage when in a pinch. Dragging plant food on top of a pea shooter, for example, sends it into machine gun mode for a short time. Each plant type reacts differently to plant food, so you'll have to experiment to find the best combinations.

SILT, Colo. (AP) -- The Bureau of Land Management is reviewing whether a proposed land swap involving Limited Brands Inc. founder Leslie Wexner is in the public interest.
Under the proposal, the BLM would transfer 1,268 acres surrounded by mostly private land in Pitkin County in Colorado to Two Shoes Ranch, which is owned by Leslie and Abigail Wexner. The BLM also would transfer 195 acres on Horse Mountain near Eagle to the adjacent Lady Belle Ranch. Conservation easements would protect the land from future development.
In return, the BLM would get the 557-acre Sutey Ranch near the Red Hill Special Recreation Area, 117 acres along Prince Creek Road that are popular with mountain bikers, plus $1.1 million.
A decision isn't expected until 2013.

Akku so wie erwartet. Lange Ausdauer
Schnelle Lieferung guter Support
So stelle ich mir das vor.
With the doubling of battery capacity, the usage time doubled. Unfortunately, there is a problem with configuring the battery meter - leaving me with 0% battery when it's half empty.
This is a problem with the phone.
The battery cover comes with a ring of what seems like watertight silicone, but when taking the cover on and off once, there is already breakage on the seal. I'll be careful even in rain.
But then again, keeping the watertight seal isn't one of the selling points of the battery.
All in all, a good battery with usable cover.
My battery life improved dramatically from less than 1 day to 2 days, which is great for me as I am outdoors often without access to a charging point. The battery life is exactly as what was advertised, which is excellent.
The only downside is the battery cover is somewhat flimsy, compared to the stock cover. An accidental slight drop from about 30cm height will cause the cover to separate from the phone.
Батарея супер. Теперь даже не думаешь, что батарея может подвести в самый нужный момент.
Bin eigentlich bei internationalen Einkäufen immer vorsichtig habe mich aber durch die positiven Rezensionen dazubewegen lassen...und ich wurde nicht enttäuscht. Sobald der Akku wieder auf Lager war wurde er verschickt und war schnell da (einige wenige Tage). Auch an der Leistung gibt es nichts auszusetzen. Hält wie erwartet doppelt so lang.
battery performance is good.
lasts up to 3 days on moderate use.
the battery cover is hard to open at the bottom (easier at the top)
i should have gotten the black one, the white shows scuffs easily.
i don't know if the battery cover still retains the phone's waterproofing..
Keine Probleme, seriöse Abwicklung - Top!
highly recommended.. my battery last for 1 and half day. thnx mugen
So far, so good and much better than the original battery.
The backplane is nicely made but a drawback is that the phone does not fit carrying cases made for it anymore.

Team Ratings
M. De Sanctis
Will be disappointed with his part in the Alvarez penalty, as the veteran keeper got a hand to the Argentine's goalscoring effort. Relatively untroubled in the second half, but stayed alert to beat away one Alvarez shot.
P. Cannavaro
Marshalled the defense well, but wasn't called into action too often in the form of blocks or important challenges. A solid performance nevertheless.
A. Gamberini
Was solid throughout, but his absence from the first team showed in the second half, as he struggled seemingly with cramp. Replaced due to fatigue.
M. Britos
Calm and composed in defense, at times perhaps too much so. Kept Alvarez relatively quiet and therefore can be pleased with his performance.
C. Zúñiga
Was clumsy to give away a penalty in the first half, but redeemed himself by picking up a penalty for his own side minutes later. Worked hard down the left hand side, and Jonathan struggled to deal with his sheer pace.
B. Džemaili
Tested Handanovic on multiple occasions with hammer-like efforts and kept the midfield ticking. Was surprisingly replaced when the game was effectively won, but it was an efficient performance from the Swiss midfielder.
C. Maggio
A constant threat coming in at the back post and worked Pereira tirelessly throughout the entire game. Was unfortunate not to get on the score sheet, after finding himself in great positions in the Inter area.
M. Hamšík
Missed a few reasonable chances in the first half, twice after Inter's defense seemed to part for him. Drove well whilst on the ball, and caused Inter all sorts of problems, but was wasteful with his shooting.
V. Behrami
Tenacious and combative in the center of midfield and not afraid to put in a challenge to stop Inter in their tracks. Made a few rash challenges, but generally broke up play very well.
G. Pandev
Threaded through some wonderful balls for Cavani in the first half, the first of which being rewarded with an assist. Worked well with Cavani, picking out his teammate time and time again, while also testing Handanovic with a couple of well struck efforts.
E. Cavani
Practically unplayable, as his pace and power proved too much for Inter to deal with. Took his three goals very well, and was unfortunate not to make it four with a squandered opportunity. Contributed well aerially in his own area too.
S. Handanovič
Kept Napoli at bay in the first half - without the Slovenian it would have been possible for the home side to pull away before halftime. Although questionably at fault for one goal, he kept the scoreline respectable.
A. Ranocchia
Looked uncomfortable throughout the game, and struggled to deal with Cavani. Picked up a yellow for a disgraceful challenge on Armero, and offered little offensively when he pressed forward.
C. Chivu
Made a couple of important blocks, but otherwise struggled to deal with the pace and power of Cavani, and gave Pandev too much time to orchestrate two of Napoli's goals.
Had a poor game, offering little in the way of delivery from the right, and gave away a penalty for his side after tangling with Zuniga in the penalty area.
Á. Pereira
Tested De Sanctis with a great strike in the first half, but struggled in the second half. Maggio enjoyed his time on the right flank, and rose unchallenged at the back post too many times.
Struggled in possession at times, gifting away possession cheaply, but his pace relieved some of the pressure on the Inter back line.
M. Benassi
Worked hard in the first half, but ultimately didn't offer as much as Stramaccioni may have hoped from him. Was replaced by Cambiasso at the halftime break.
M. Kovačić
His energy and endeavor was refreshing for the away side, but he struggled to have a notable impact on the game, as the experience of his midfield opponents proved to be a tough obstacle to surpass.
R. Álvarez
Did well to get the wrong side of his man for his penalty win, before being slightly fortunate to see his goal-bound effort slip under De Sanctis. Was Inter's only real source of creativity, but disappeared occasionally in the second half.
F. Guarín
Had plenty of attempts at goal in the first half, but failed to test De Sanctis too often. Disappeared entirely in the second half, but his first half performance was impressive, popping up in good areas and having plenty of shots on goal.
Z. Kuzmanović
Worked hard in the center of midfield, attempting to get forward and support his side's attacks whenever possible, but similarly to Kovacic, he had little impact.
P. Armero
Linked up well down the left with Zuniga, and provided a couple of quality crosses from the line. Was unfortunate not to get an assist after Cavani squandered a great chance from the Colombian's near post cross.
L. Insigne
Caused problems with his pace as Inter tired. A reasonable showing in a short period of time for the youngster.

Do You Exercise in the a.m.?
Written on June 7, 2011 at 10:25 am , by Marianne Magno
I'll be honest: I am not a morning person. I'll wake up bright and early and be on time for races, appointments and work, but not with the perky enthusiasm of a natural morning person. (Coffee! Stat!) This is why I choose to work out in the evening after work. The thought of going to the gym first thing in the morning is foreign to me. I couldn't understand how you morning gym-goers do it!
When I looked at my calendar this week, however, I noticed that I had a lot of after-work events lined up and meetings throughout the day. Instead of ignoring my fitness for the week, I decided to suck it up and wake up before 6 a.m. for a workout before work. I expected to find lots of busy professionals at the gym, crowded locker rooms and no available machines or equipment.
Boy was I wrong! I hopped on the elliptical right away and had lots of space for free weight exercises and stretching after. Even showering and getting ready in the locker room was stress-free. And I made it to work early! Though I'm not sure if I'll do all my workouts in the morning, I know now that post-work plans don't have to get in the way of my fitness.
What about you guys? Are you a morning workouts person, or more of a nighttime exerciser like me?

WASHINGTON-- President Barack Obama says he has accepted Marine Gen. John Allen's request to retire from the U.S. military.
That means the White House won't go forward with Allen's nomination to lead U.S. and NATO forces in Europe.
Obama says Allen is retiring so he can address family health issues. He's calling Allen one of the nation's finest military leaders and a true patriot.
In a statement, President Obama said: "I met with General John Allen and accepted his request to retire from the military so that he can address health issues within his family. I told General Allen that he has my deep, personal appreciation for his extraordinary service over the last 19 months in Afghanistan, as well as his decades of service in the United States Marine Corps. General Allen presided over the significant growth in the size and capability of Afghan National Security Forces, the further degradation of al Qaeda and their extremist allies, and the ongoing transition to Afghan security responsibility across the country. He worked tirelessly to strengthen our coalition through his leadership of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF), and to improve our relations with the Afghan government."
Allen recently left his command in Afghanistan and was nominated last fall to become the U.S. military's top soldier in Europe. But that nomination was shelved during a Pentagon investigation into emails Allen exchanged with a civilian woman who was linked to the scandal that forced CIA Director David Petraeus to resign. Allen since has been cleared of wrongdoing.
Allen, 59, of Warrenton, Va., was the longest serving commander of U.S. and coalition troops in Afghanistan so far. Nearly two dozen generals have commanded troops from the United States and other nations in the coalition since the American invasion in late 2001 -- with six U.S. generals, including the current leader, Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford, running both commands in the past five years alone.
Afghan Defense Minister Bismullah Khan Mohammadi applauded Allen's military campaign against the insurgents.
"The efforts and the role played by Gen. Allen to apply military pressure against the Taliban and terrorists through joint special operations have led to the death and capture of many terrorists and Taliban leaders," Mohammadi said. The operations, he added, allowed Afghan forces to expand their control across areas heavily influenced by the Taliban.
Obama said last month that the Afghans would take over this spring instead of late summer -- a decision that could permit a speedier withdrawal of foreign forces from Afghanistan.
Allen said he told Dunford at the leadership handover ceremony "our victory here will never be marked by a parade or a point in time on a calendar when victory is declared. This insurgency will be defeated over time by the legitimate and well-trained Afghan forces that are emerging today and who are taking the field in full force this spring."
The matter of Allen's email was referred to the Pentagon in November by the FBI during the course of its investigation of emails between former CIA Director David Petraeus and his biographer-turned-paramour, Paula Broadwell. The FBI turned up thousands of emails between Allen and Jill Kelley, who was said to have received threatening emails from Broadwell.
At the time, officials said 20,000 to 30,000 pages of emails and other documents from Allen's communications with Kelley between 2010 and 2012 were in question.
Shortly after being contacted by the FBI, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta referred the matter to the Pentagon's inspector general, while expressing confidence in Allen and deciding that he would remain in Kabul as commander of all allied forces in Afghanistan.
At the same time, Allen's nomination to be the next U.S. commander of NATO forces in Europe was put on hold.
When the matter arose in November, defense officials expressed concern that at least some of the emails might be judged "inappropriate," but the inspector general determined that such concerns were "unsubstantiated."

This was our first trip as Platinum VIP members and we were treated with little fanfare. Kind of disappointing really.
Platinum check in was quick and easy, but no mention of our "elite" status left us wondering.
Our cabin steward "An" was our first woman steward and possibly the best we have ever had. She was really good.
The dining room staff was excellent and the food was as good as always.
We gambled quite a lot and did OK. Its the part of cruising that we enjoy a great deal.
We went to two shows, adult comedian Eddie Capone who was pretty good and not over the top dirty. Then we went to the headline show of the cruise "VRRoom" and it was one of the best we have ever seen on a cruise. They did great.
Stops were in Key West where we shopped and stopped by the legendary Conch Shack for the best conch fritters in the world. They never disappoint. Its located on Duval next to the Hog's Breath Saloon. On a recommendation we had lunch at the Hurricane Hole Restaurant and Marina on Stock Island. Its a $20 cab fair from the ship, but you're eating lunch on a pier as manatees and pelicans look up at you. Once in a lifetime!
Next day in Cozumel we went to Paradise Beach and loved it there. Its a $14 cab ride from the ship, but provides and excellent, clean beach with good food, drinks and music.
Overall we had a great time, but just wish Carnival made us feel more special for remaining loyal to them for 10 cruises now.

I'm a PC user through and through. I get into countless debates as to whether Steve Jobs is an evil villain and whether Macs are really better or just shiny white plastic. But that's really beside the point.
That having been said: I won't be playing AoC (in part) because I know my friends can't play it with me. It sucks that they have to make such an effort to make it work for two systems. I am aware that resources devoted to this sort of thing (making it work for apple computers) are, consequently, not devoted to other things.
It sucks, but I want to play with my friends. That's how MMORPGs work. /shrug

Court: TSSAA Is Subject To Open Records Laws
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - A state appeals court has ruled that the Tennessee Secondary School Athletic Association, the body that regulates high school sports, is subject to the Tennessee Public Records Act.
The decision stems from a lawsuit filed after the TSSAA refused to turn over records to the now-defunct Nashville City Paper. The paper was seeking records related to the investigation of recruiting violations at the elite Nashville private school Montgomery Bell Academy.
This week the Tennessee Court of Appeals upheld a lower court's decision that found that even though the TSSAA is a private non-profit corporation, it is the functional equivalent of a state agency and subject to the open records laws.
An attorney for the TSSAA did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment.

The authors used structured diagnostic interviews to assess the lifetime
prevalence of psychiatric disorders, by DSM-III criteria, among 70 women:
51 outpatients with active bulimia and 19 nonpatient subjects with remitted
bulimia. Comparison groups consisted of 24 female outpatients with major
depression and 28 nonpsychiatric control subjects. The active and remitted
bulimic subjects closely resembled each other, with high lifetime rates of
major affective disorder, anxiety disorders, and substance use disorders.
Atypical depression was equally common among subjects with major affective
disorder in all groups. These results are consistent with previous studies
suggesting a phenomenologic relationship between bulimia and major
affective disorder.

Good boot for a great price Fit's well.
So far so good, not sure if they are waterproof yet. My last pair of boots Hi-tech claimed they were waterproof and are not. Wet feet all winter
I have wore the Hikers on hikes of 5, 6, and 9 miles already and they have performed very nicely. No foot pain afterwards - very comfortable.
Light and rugged hikers. Good price and shipped quickly.
