I must say unlike the other comments the color on my monitor showed the exact color- but i'm not using a PC- :) This rug is absolutely beautiful. I would describe the colors as a Tan or Khaki color with french country golden yellow with burst of brick red or burnt orange. It has a pale sage or French gray look to it. The rug is thick, compare it to the rugs you find at Pottery Barn because it's the same manufacture at a fraction of the cost. I know because my last rug purchase I got there. I ordered this rug and the runner From Overstocks. I put a waffle pad under foot just to make it more squishy but you really don't need it. As far as dust bunnies go you will get a little but the manufacture also says to vacuum on a low setting. My other rug doesn't do it anymore, I've vacuumed it maybe 10 times now on low. BTW- I got the rug 2 days after ordering it. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!!!!
A very good value. The carpet was better then the picture. Overstock worked with me and I was very happy with the help I got on this purchase. It came fast and it was just what I wanted.
the rug looks fantastic! it arrived in short time and was packaged well. lots of compliments on the colors and style. looks like it costs a great deal more than it did!
We like this rug very much! Everything written is correct. A great size, it shed for awhile but not unusually much and the colors are perfect. I would buy it all over again!
This rug is true to almost every review about it. It is a thick and very plush rug, quite comfortable to walk on. Several people mentioned that the colors are not vibrant. I would call the colors subdued and on the cool range. The red is a deep brick red. There is a slight new smell to the rug as mentioned by other reviewers, because the rug is - well, new. After three days the slight scent dissipates. I have experienced none of the piling or rubbing off that others have mentioned. Basically, for the price it's a great deal and I am pleased.
I love this carpet. The colors work well in my room..soft and not overpowering.
Bought this rug for the brick red flowers in it as they match the throw pillows for our sofa. Our sofa is gray and I struggled to find a rug with primary colors of gray and reds. This rug is definitely beige/taupe, especially the center square. It's unfortunate Overstock does not have a photo upload feature, as I took several photos in incandescent and natural light to show the variation. It does shed, but is durable. We've had it for several months now and it withstands us and our pets lying and playing on it. It's now $150 cheaper on Overstock, so I'd say it's good value for money. When I bought it, I'd say it was average.
Very impressive as you enter the room. I have it in the dining room, paired with white linen drapes, an old oak table and more contemporary chairs. This rug marries them all together elegantly.

Trade-Ideas: VMware (VMW) Is Today's "Roof Leaker" Stock
- VMW has an average dollar-volume (as measured by average daily share volume multiplied by share price) of $155.5 million.
- VMW has traded 1.3 million shares today.
- VMW is trading at 1.70 times the normal volume for the stock at this time of day.
- VMW crossed below its 200-day simple moving average.
'Roof Leaker' stocks are worth watching because trading stocks that begin to experience a breakdown can lead to potentially massive losses. Once psychological and technical resistance barriers like the 200-day moving average are breached on higher than normal relative volume, the stock may then be subject to emotional selling from investors that can continue to drive the stock lower. Regardless of the impetus behind the price and volume action, when a stock moves with weakness and volume it can indicate the start of a new, potentially dangerous, trend. EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Get the inside scoop on opportunities in VMW with the Ticky from Trade-Ideas. See the FREE profile for VMW NOW at Trade-Ideas More details on VMW: VMware, Inc. provides virtualization infrastructure solutions in the United States and internationally. VMW has a PE ratio of 46.0. Currently there are 14 analysts that rate VMware a buy, 2 analysts rate it a sell, and 14 rate it a hold. The average volume for VMware has been 1.8 million shares per day over the past 30 days. VMware has a market cap of $10.8 billion and is part of the technology sector and computer software & services industry. The stock has a beta of 1.49 and a short float of 11.6% with 4.99 days to cover. Shares are down 11.6% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday. 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 VMware as a hold. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures and growth in earnings per share. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself and disappointing return on equity. Highlights from the ratings report include:
- VMW's revenue growth has slightly outpaced the industry average of 5.8%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues rose by 10.7%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- VMW's debt-to-equity ratio is very low at 0.07 and is currently below that of the industry average, implying that there has been very successful management of debt levels. To add to this, VMW has a quick ratio of 2.11, which demonstrates the ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.
- The gross profit margin for VMWARE INC is currently very high, coming in at 90.83%. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Regardless of the strong results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 19.63% trails the industry average.
- The company's current return on equity has slightly decreased from the same quarter one year prior. This implies a minor weakness in the organization. When compared to other companies in the Software industry and the overall market, VMWARE INC's return on equity is below that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- VMW has underperformed the S&P 500 Index, declining 9.61% from its price level of one year ago. Looking ahead, we do not see anything in this company's numbers that would change the one-year trend. It was down over the last twelve months; and it could be down again in the next twelve. Naturally, a bull or bear market could sway the movement of this stock.

'Film insulting Mohammed failed to divide Muslims / Christians' [SyrianGirlpartisan]
- Knewtube
- uploaded: Sep 16, 2012
- Hits: 37
I put forward my hypothesis on what i believe could be the true intentions behind the film insulting the prophet Mohammed and how it backfired. The intentions were to divide Muslims and christians, rioting against or assassination of the pope, and to remove Obama and put Mitt Romney in power. But the result has also been a backlash against US imperialism in the muslim world and the blow up of the Libya and Syria narrative of democratic protesters instead of sectarian gangs. However I do believe there this will lead to the election of Mit Romney and the down fall of Obomer.

Are These Tech Stocks Value Traps?
David is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
I have never been an advocate of shorting stocks. The reason stems from the notion that you are inherently betting against inertia. With that said, there are opportunities when a stock is positioned to drop. One of the riskiest sectors to short is technology, since growth is largely speculative in that area and often a function of short-term emotion. In this article, I look at two tech companies, once Wall Street darlings, now viewed by many to be "value traps."
How Hewlett-Packard (NYSE: HPQ) Is Reforming
Hewlett-Packard is a tech firm that specializes in producing hardware and software. Commonly known as HP, it was the biggest PC manufacturer in the world until 2012 when it was overtaken by Lenovo, a PC company based in China. HP is a trusted brand in the manufacturing of personal computers, industrial servers, storage gadgets, printers and the software that goes with these products. The company further offers consulting services for the vast majority of its products. In 2002, it joined forces with Compaq and acquired EDS leading to a joint income of $118.4
HP has acquired several other companies in the past which include 3Com in April 2010, Palm in April 2010 at the price of $1.2 billion and 3PAR in September 2010 for $2.07 billion. But unfortunately this growth-through-acquisition strategy hasn't always been smooth. After announcing a 31% decline in profits in mid-2012, HP disclosed that it was accusing Autonomy, a UK software producer HP bought for $10.3 billion, of accounting fraud. Management insists that Autonomy not only inflated its value through accounting tricks but also failed to disclose and even misrepresented financials--a claim it asked the Department of Justice to investigate. In November, HP wrote down $8.8 billion, $5 billion of which was related to the Autonomy scandal.
In an attempt to reform the business, the company has effectively moved in the opposite direction of acquisition by downsizing. From laying off 27,000 employees to explicitly expressing an interest in spurning divisions, management is trying to de-risk its business. Certainly, shareholders have become disillusioned into what is increasingly being seen as a "value trap": in the last two years alone, the company saw its share price decline from around $50 to less than $20 today. But the free cash flow yield is now at at a terrific 24%. In the last three years, the company has bought back shares worth $26 billion, and, when you add in a 3.3% dividend yield, the downside looks limited in the long-term.
Is Intel (NASDAQ: INTC) a Value Trap Too?
Intel is also becoming associated with a "value trap." Despite having 15.9% of the market in 2011 and trading at 9.6x past earning, the bear sentiment is clear: 25 of 41 reporting analysts rate the stock a relatively pessimistic "hold." Even still, 16 call it a "buy" or better, six of which say "strong buy." Though shares have risen 14.4% from the lows, the stock is still down 23.4% from the 52-week high. So what to make of the company?
A favorable feature of Intel is its vertical integration. This means that, unlike other chip making companies, Intel does not primarily use third-parties to outsource manufacturing. Instead, it does everything in-house and has put significant emphasis on upcoming technologies in manufacturing.
But vertical integration goes both ways: Customers may not need your own products if they can more efficiently create their own. Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) acquired ARM license and can now produce some of the best mobile processors. This means that Apple won't need Intel's Atom product(s) anymore. This situation is further worsened by the fact that Apple has all the resources it requires to manufacture its own specialized chips. And I do not believe the electronics business will be very desirous to start buying Intel's chips in the long-term, since the company prides itself in having everything produced by Apple and for Apple (those interested in purchasing a MacBook, for example, know the typical employee pitch.) When you add in the downside from reduced demand for personal computers as people shift to smartphones and tablets, you have what looks to be like a perfect storm.
However, this market attitude has largely been articulated. Investors should thus look at whether there will be upside to the general expectation. In my view, there is. For one, multiples are too low and should they even expand to 13x (and Intel is not dying any time soon), there is 14.6% instant upside on top of a 4.1% annual dividend yield. I recommend buying to take advantage of this opportunity.

Whitworth Home Page > Green Dot >
Green Dot Strategy
What's with the Green Dot?
Now, imagine for a moment a map of Whitworth. Each red dot on this map represents an act of power-based personal violence (partner violence, sexual violence, stalking, bullying, harassment) or a choice to tolerate, justify or perpetuate this violence. A red dot is a rape, a slap, a threat, an individual choice to do nothing in the face of a high-risk situation. Power-based personal violence is not a huge, solid mass that can simply be removed with one swift action or policy. Rather, it is the accumulation of individual decisions, moments, values, and actions made by men and women from every corner of our world. It's difficult to know exactly how many red dots are on our map at any given moment, but we do know that there have been enough red dots to create a culture that sustains far too much violence. Nearly a quarter of women become victims of violence during their lifetime, and an untold number of men experience similar trauma.
Now imagine adding a Green Dot in the middle of all those red dots on our map. A Green Dot represents any behavior, choice, word, or attitude that promotes safety for all of us and communicates utter intolerance for any form of violence. A Green Dot is pulling a friend out of a high-risk situation, responding to a victim-blaming statement with words of support, posting a message on Facebook, coordinating a training session for your student organization, displaying an awareness poster in your office, striking up a conversation with a friend about how much this issue matters to you, responding to a derogatory or hurtful comment instead of ignoring it, writing a paper or giving a speech on violence prevention. A Green Dot is simply your individual choice at any given moment to make our community safer.
How many Green Dots will it take to begin reducing power-based personal violence? How many of us need to add two or three or seven or 50 dots to this map to begin to make a difference so that Green Dots will outnumber and displace those red dots? We cannot know the exact number' but we do know this: If most of us choose inaction, if most of us choose to close our eyes to this issue, if most of us choose apathy and indifference, then the red dots stand! If we do not begin to replace moments of violence with moments of support and safety' then we will surely continue to have more than 25 percent of women and countless men become victims of violence. That is not okay. That must not be okay with any of us.
Green Dot is a national movement developed by Dorothy Edwards at the University of Kentucky. It is currently in place at other universities and colleges throughout the country and in Washington state.

OBJECTIVE: Neurological soft signs are frequently found in schizophrenia. They are indicators of both genetic liability and psychopathological symptoms. To further differentiate "trait" and "state" relations the authors compared the 1-year course of neurological soft signs in schizophrenia patients and comparison subjects. METHOD: Thirty-nine patients with first-episode schizophrenia spectrum disorders were examined after remission of acute symptoms and 14 months later. Established instruments assessed diagnoses, psychopathological symptoms, predictors of outcome, handedness, and neurological soft signs. Twenty-two age- and gender-matched comparison subjects were also examined twice. RESULTS: Neurological soft sign scores in patients were significantly elevated relative to comparison subjects at both measurement points. Whereas neurological soft signs remained stable in comparison subjects (time 1: mean=4.8, SD=3.3; time 2: mean=4.6, SD=3.9), they significantly decreased in patients (time 1: mean=15.7, SD=7.1; time 2: mean=10.1, SD=7.9). This effect was more pronounced in patients with a favorable versus a chronic course and was mainly accounted for by motor signs. Predictors of follow-up neurological soft sign scores were neurological soft sign levels at remission and compliance with treatment. CONCLUSIONS: Although neurological soft signs are intrinsic to schizophrenia, their level varies with the clinical course. Thus, neurological soft signs may correspond to both genetic liability and the activity of the disease process and may be considered as potential predictors of outcome.
Neurological soft signs refer to subtle neurological abnormalities comprising deficits in sensory integration, motor coordination, and sequencing of complex motor acts (1). A considerable body of research has established that neurological soft signs are more prevalent in schizophrenia patients, including first-episode cases, than in healthy subjects (2). Studies with neuroleptic-naive first-episode patients have demonstrated that neurological soft signs are present before medication exposure, thus they are thought to be an intrinsic feature of schizophrenia (3, 4). This notion is supported by findings of neurological soft signs in high-risk subjects (i.e., relatives of schizophrenia patients and unaffected co-twins of monozygotic twin pairs discordant for schizophrenia [5–7]). These studies found that relatives take an intermediate position between healthy and schizophrenia subjects.
It is generally accepted that neurological soft signs are associated with psychopathology, especially negative symptoms and formal thought disorders (8–10). This notion is consistent with earlier studies of our group (10–12) in which we demonstrated a significant decrease of neurological soft signs that paralleled remission of symptoms under neuroleptic treatment.
The dysfunctional networks involved in the pathogenesis of neurological soft signs have not been fully identified to date. Neuroimaging studies have suggested associations of neurological soft signs with activation changes in the sensorimotor cortex and the supplementary motor area, cerebellar abnormalities, and subcortical findings involving the basal ganglia and thalamus (4, 10, 13, 14). Although these results and their interrelations have not yet been investigated in one joint study, they strengthen the hypothesis that neurological soft signs may refer to changes of frontal-thalamic-cerebellar pathways as conceptualized in the model of "cognitive dysmetria" (15).
Given these results, neurological soft signs can be interpreted as an expression of genetic liability toward the disease as have been presented in Meehl's concept of "schizotaxia" (16) in which dysdiadochokinesia—among others—constitutes a trait-like marker of a baseline defect ("hypokrisia"). To further understand fluctuations in the level of neurological soft signs and in particular their increase with acute symptoms of schizophrenia, Huber's hypothesis of "process activity" (17) may serve as a complementary concept. Huber differentiates reversible and irreversible symptoms, the former representing functional states of the active disease process that may remit with clinical stabilization. From his pneumencephalographic study (18) he concluded that once the active process persists, structural and psychopathological deteriorations run a parallel course toward an irreversible deficit. Hence, process activity does not refer to a static concept but addresses the variability of the clinical course.
Drawing on the outlined concepts, we hypothesized that 1) neurological soft sign scores would increase during acute phases of the illness and return to baseline values with stabilization through treatment (possibly reflecting the activity of the disease process); 2) a decrease in neurological soft sign levels would be a favorable prognostic criterion; and 3) even in patients with a remitting course and favorable outcome, neurological soft signs would remain increased relative to healthy comparison subjects as an expression of genetic liability or schizotaxia.
Thirty-nine schizophrenia patients whose first psychotic episode had remitted before discharge from an acute care ward were consecutively included in the study. Individuals with a history of or a concomitant neurological or medical disorder or severe substance abuse were excluded. The group consisted of 21 women and 18 men, all Caucasian, with a mean of 11.6 years (SD=1.6) of education; mean age at study intake was 27.0 years (SD=7.7). Patients were discharged on atypical antipsychotic regimens according to their psychiatrists' choice (mean dose=579.5 mg in chlorpromazine equivalents [SD=267.3]). One year later, patients were invited for follow-up assessment; the exact interval amounted to a mean of 14.2 months (SD=1.6, range=10–18). Twenty-two healthy Caucasian comparison subjects were recruited from the general population through advertisements after screening for and exclusion of major psychiatric disorders. The group consisted of 10 men and 12 women, mean age=28.0 years (SD=3.8), mean education level=12.6 years (SD=0.9), and mean follow-up interval=10.0 months (SD=1.4, range=8–13). All ratings were performed by the same trained raters (S.B., C.B.) on both occasions. To maintain intra- and interrater reliability and avoid rater drift, we implemented an ongoing program of regular reliability checks. The study was approved by the ethics committee of the Medical Faculty, University of Heidelberg. After full explanation of proceedings subjects provided informed consent to participate.
Neurological soft signs were assessed with the Heidelberg Scale (10), which consists of five subscales comprising 16 items (A1). All items except for gait, tandem gait, Ozeretzki's test, articulation, and right/left orientation are assessed separately for both the right and the left side. Ratings are given on a 0–3-point scale (no/slight/moderate/marked abnormality, respectively). In the initial evaluation of the Heidelberg Scale (10), a sufficient internal reliability (Cronbach's alpha=0.85/0.89 for schizophrenia patients/healthy subjects) and interrater reliability (r=0.88, p<0.005) were established.
The Edinburgh Inventory (19) was applied to establish handedness. By rating common activities, a laterality quotient is calculated that ranges from –100 (strong left hander) to 100 (strong right hander). We used narrow definitions of left handedness (laterality quotient less than –80) and right handedness (laterality quotient more than 80); the remaining range represented mixed handedness.
Diagnoses were established with the German version of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV (20), which also served to exclude further major psychiatric disorders. Psychopathological symptoms were rated on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (21), and predictors of outcome were rated on the Strauss-Carpenter Scale (22). Side effects of medication were documented with the Simpson-Angus Rating Scale (23), Barnes Rating Scale for Drug-Induced Akathisia (24), and the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) (25). At the follow-up evaluation, diagnoses, symptoms, predictors of outcome, and side effects of medication were reassessed with the indicated instruments. Moreover, information on compliance and important areas of functioning during the follow-up interval was gathered through a thorough clinical interview. Compliance was rated as present only if patients reported regular medication intake.
For all variables, Kolmogorov-Smirnov analyses were calculated to test for normal distribution. Using chi-square tests, extended by Fisher's exact tests if warranted and analyses of variance (ANOVA), possible differences between patients and healthy subjects and between the sexes with respect to clinical variables were assessed. Those variables that had been rated twice during the clinical course were analyzed with repeated measures ANOVAs. To further analyze the changes in neurological soft sign scores over time, the patient group was dichotomized by a median split on the basis of the respective change; resulting subgroups were compared with respect to the other clinical parameters. Moreover, variables that preceded neurological soft signs at the follow-up evaluation were entered in a stepwise linear regression analysis to detect possible predictors of neurological soft sign change. Extending previous studies we established the test-retest reliability of the Heidelberg Scale. This was done in the comparison subjects, since neurological soft sign stability was expected in this group. All analyses were performed with the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences.
Patients and comparison subjects were comparable with respect to age, gender, and education. Although eight patients and only one healthy subject had a family history of psychiatric disease, this difference did not reach significance level.
Patients' initial assessment revealed the following diagnoses: schizophrenia (N=20), schizoaffective disorder (N=2), schizophreniform disorder (N=16), and psychosis not otherwise specified (N=1). At the follow-up evaluation, a diagnostic shift was seen in 16 cases: from schizophreniform disorder to schizophrenia (N=14), from psychosis not otherwise specified to schizophrenia (N=1), and from schizophrenia to schizoaffective disorder (N=1). During the follow-up period, 33 individuals adhered to psychiatric treatment regularly. Thirty-one patients received continuous treatment with atypical antipsychotics (mean dose=297.7 mg/day in chlorpromazine equivalents [SD=35.5]); four of these patients were prescribed a mood stabilizer or an antidepressant in addition. Side effects of medication were low and unchanged at the follow-up evaluation relative to remission according to the AIMS (time 1: median=0, range=13; time 2: median=0, range=5), the Barnes Rating Scale for Drug-Induced Akathisia (time 1: median=0, range=4; time 2: median=0, range=3), and the Simpson-Angus Rating Scale (time 1: median=12, range=7; time 2: median=11, range=4).
At the follow-up evaluation, the overall Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale score (mean=52.4, SD=25.6) did not represent a significant difference from the remission score (mean=52.0, SD=12.4). The mean follow-up Strauss-Carpenter Scale score (58.4, SD=11.5) was comparable to the mean initial score (57.4, SD=11.5). During the follow-up period two patients had been continuously ill. Relapses occurred in 13 individuals, six of whom were fully recovered at the second interview. The remaining seven subjects still suffered from psychotic symptoms (N=4) or had been readmitted to the hospital (N=3). Five individuals used cannabis, four of these were also regular alcohol users. Thirty-three patients were compliant with treatment, and 31 were compliant with their medication. Ten individuals had continued their education successfully, and 20 were fully employed. Regular participation in household duties was reported by 29 subjects, regular social contacts by 24 subjects.
The patient group consisted of a similar number of right handers (N=20) and mixed handers (N=19). In the comparison group right handers (N=19) outnumbered mixed handers (N=3). While this difference between groups was statistically significant (F=8.5, df=1, 59, p<0.01), analyses did not yield a difference between the sexes within diagnostic groups.
Patients' mean initial scores on the Heidelberg Scale decreased significantly during the follow-up period (t1), whereas the scores of the comparison subjects remained almost unchanged. Good test-retest reliability of the Heidelberg Scale (r=0.80, df=20, p<0.001) was seen in the healthy subjects. Neurological soft sign subscales were analyzed separately. Only for the motor coordination subscale were significant results detected for time, diagnosis, and the time-by-diagnosis interaction.
To further investigate the decrease of neurological soft signs in patients, this group was split according to the median change in neurological soft sign total scores. Subsequently, 21 patients with a pronounced neurological soft sign decrease were compared with 18 patients with stable or increasing neurological soft sign levels and to healthy subjects by means of a repeated measures ANOVA, which yielded a significant difference (t2). Post hoc Duncan tests revealed that both patient groups were comparable at first assessment whereas the group experiencing a decrease in neurological soft sign levels took an intermediate position on follow-up and did not differ statistically from healthy subjects (F1).
Additional analyses of the three groups were performed for the neurological soft sign subscales (t2) where significant differences emerged for motor coordination, sensory integration, and complex motor tasks.
The differences between patients and healthy subjects were not related to handedness, gender, family history of psychiatric disease, or any other sociodemographic variable.
t3 depicts sociodemographic and clinical data for patients with decreasing and stable neurological soft sign scores. No differences between groups emerged with respect to gender, social relationships, household duties, relapse, or alcohol/cannabis use. The subgroup with decreasing neurological soft sign levels showed better compliance and educational and vocational achievement. Time-by-group interactions revealed more favorable findings for patients with decreasing neurological soft sign levels as opposed to those with stable levels in terms of scores on the Strauss-Carpenter Scale and the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale. In addition, for the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale there were significant main effects of group for the total score (F=5.0, df=1, 37, p<0.05), positive symptom score (F=5.0, df=1, 37, p<0.05), and global psychopathology score (F=4.3, df=1, 37, p<0.05).
A regression analysis was calculated for neurological soft signs at the follow-up evaluation to identify predictors of neurological soft sign decrease. Variables that preceded the second assessment were entered. The analysis revealed neurological soft sign levels at remission and compliance with treatment during the follow-up period to be relevant influences (t4).
To our knowledge this is the first prospective longitudinal study to compare neurological soft signs in first-episode schizophrenia patients and healthy subjects. Whereas soft signs remained almost stable in healthy subjects, they significantly decreased in first-episode schizophrenia patients during a follow-up period of 14 months. This effect was related to better outcome. Despite the significant decrease, neurological soft signs remained elevated in patients relative to healthy subjects. Our findings support the initial hypotheses and contribute to the understanding of neurological soft signs in schizophrenia patients.
Neurological soft signs were present to a significantly greater extent in patients than in comparison subjects at both measurement points. The level of neurological soft signs at remission (time 1) is well within the range of remission scores in an earlier study by our group (10), and follow-up neurological soft sign levels of patients with decreasing scores closely corresponded to scores of unaffected co-twins of monozygotic twins discordant for schizophrenia (7). Our results clearly confirm the general finding of increased neurological soft sign scores in schizophrenia patients (1, 2, 10, 26), including first-episode cases, and accord with the view that neurological soft signs range among the most consistent neurobiological characteristics of schizophrenia (27).
During the follow-up period, neurological soft sign scores clearly decreased in patients but remained almost unchanged on a low level in healthy subjects. In particular, patients with decreasing neurological soft sign scores experienced further stabilization of symptoms and functioning, whereas clinical findings of patients with stable scores foreshadowed a chronic course. As suggested in previous studies (10, 28), this effect arose through disturbed motor and sensory integration signs rather than orientation difficulties or hard signs. Similar findings were obtained in earlier studies by our group, namely a parallel decrease of neurological soft signs and acute symptoms in patients with remitting schizophrenia as well as in first-episode patients under initial treatment with a typical neuroleptic (10–12). Further support of a positive correlation between improvement in clinical status and neurological performance stems from studies describing a significant improvement of neurological soft signs during a 6-month follow-up period (26), and more pronounced long-term deterioration in neuroleptic-free compared with medicated patients (28). Along these lines, cross-sectional studies have consistently reported an association of neurological soft signs with increased symptom levels, poor premorbid adjustment, and unfavorable outcome (1, 3, 10, 29) as well as with neurobiological measures such as neuropsychological deficits and structural and functional cerebral abnormalities (10–14). A correlation between neurological soft signs and negative symptoms was especially reported in drug-naive and medicated patients (2). Both neurological soft signs and negative symptoms might be a consequence of dopaminergic hypoactivity. This notion accords with the difference in neurological soft signs between medication responders and nonresponders (10, 12, 26) as well as with the finding that neurological soft signs are most prominent in chronic forms of schizophrenia (1). The aforementioned relationships were also confirmed by our study, since neurological soft signs were significantly related to the different symptom dimensions and predictors of outcome at both measurement points. Thus, our results hint at the necessity to differentiate between patient subgroups according to their symptoms and outcome.
Since neurological soft signs are present before medication exposure, it is generally accepted that they are an intrinsic feature of schizophrenia rather than a side effect of medication (2, 3). This view is supported by reports on spontaneous abnormal involuntary movements in schizophrenia patients, which had already been observed in the preneuroleptic era (30). Further support for a genetic determination stems from studies on relatives of schizophrenia patients (7, 8). Of interest in our study was that follow-up neurological soft sign scores of patients with a favorable outcome were in the range of unaffected co-twins of monozygotic twin pairs discordant for schizophrenia (7). This is in line with evidence from studies on neuroleptic-naive patients (3, 12, 27) and suggests that a remitting disease course leads to an increase in neurological soft sign levels during a limited period of time (i.e., an acute psychotic exacerbation) and then a return to the genetically determined baseline thereafter. These results are consistent with Meehl's model of "schizotaxia" (16) in which dysdiadochokinesia—i.e., a sign of dysfunctional motor coordination—is conceptualized as a marker of the baseline defect ("hypokrisia"). On the other hand, the persisting elevation of neurological soft sign scores in chronic cases may hint at a still enduring process activity reflecting premorbid changes of neurodevelopmental origin (31) or the presence of acquired, irreversible deficits.
Thus, neurological soft signs in schizophrenia seem to adopt characteristics of both state-like and trait-like features. During the early course of acute psychosis when symptoms fluctuate, the state-like features of an active disease process (17, 18) may be predominant. On the other hand, the trait-like features that represent the genetically determined baseline may prevail after remission of the acute illness. In conclusion, our results and the body of literature allow for the notion that neurological soft signs represent surrogate markers of the schizophrenic disease process, i.e., the process activity that is more prominent and fluctuating during the early course of the disease; in later phases of the disease the process may come to a standstill, but it may also completely resolve or deteriorate into deficit states (17, 18).
This study may be limited by a recruitment bias. However, patients initially were included in the study consecutively as they necessitated hospital treatment. Neuroleptic medication was not standardized but restricted to atypical compounds, chosen according to the patients' individual needs, and extrapyramidal side effects were rare and not associated with neurological soft signs. Most important, compliance with medication was a positive predictor of neurological soft sign decrease. In general, the comparability among studies is limited because of the absence of a universally accepted structured instrument. However, most instruments in use comprise a set of similar subtests, e.g., tandem gait, Romberg, diadochokinesis, finger-nose tapping, finger-thumb opposition, fist-edge palm test, Ozeretski's test, mirror movements, graphesthesia, stereognosis, right/left orientation (32). Therefore, overall data comparability among studies is relatively high. In spite of this methodological limitation, the evidence for a higher rate of neurological abnormalities in schizophrenia is consistent and compelling. The test-retest reliability of our Heidelberg Scale over a longer period of time was sufficient.
In summary, neurological soft signs are intrinsic to schizophrenia but their measured quantity and magnitude may serve as a surrogate marker for the activity of the disease process as well as a predictor of outcome. Overall, the assessment of neurological soft signs represents a hardly time-consuming, inexpensive, and meaningful tool in clinical psychiatry and has the potential to bridge the gulf between neurobiological research and clinical practice.

If you think that Jay Leno has an awesome garage, you obviously haven't seen the cars in Ralph Lauren 's garage. Housing some of the rarest vehicles in the history of the world, the fashion icon's well-documented fondness for classic vehicles is already well chronicled. But while we know about Ralph and his obsession with exotics of all shapes and sizes, we've yet to get a look at some of the vehicles that are all carefully restored in tip-top condition at his museum-like garage in Atlanta.
Fortunately, Vanity Fair was given a tour inside the facility and, oh dear Lord, the cars inside just made our jaws drop. Ranging from classics like a 1938 Bugatti coupe and a 1938 Alfa Romeo Mille Miglia roadster to modern pieces of machinery like a Bugatti Veyron and a Lamborghini Murcielago SuperVeloce , Lauren's garage is like a who's who of automobile greatness. It even has the only 1930 Mercedes SSK "Count Trossi" roadster in existence. What's more amazing is that all these cars, especially the classics, have all been maintained in ideal condition and, every so often, Ralph Lauren even takes them out for a spin.
We've seen some pretty amazing celebrity garages in our time, including that of Jay Leno's, but Ralph Lauren's garage is without question the most amazing celebrity garage we've ever seen.
UPDATE 04/26/11: In just two days, one of the world's most exclusive car collections belonging to no other than Ralph Lauren himself will be on exhibit for the first time in Europe at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, France. Talking about his extensive list of classic automobiles, Ralph Lauren shares how he thinks about his cars - not as a collection, but as an extension of himself - as works of art.

Like everyone else, I look forward to seeing if the recent visits by Taiwan's opposition leaders to the Mainland will lead to a breakthrough in cross-Strait relations. However, China must also talk with President Chen.
I believe Chen has now begun to see the remoteness of establishing an independent Taiwan state before his term ends in 2008. Consequently, now is the time for him to show statesmanship and work across party lines to develop a cross-Strait policy that is in the best interests of all the Taiwan people. This also would provide him an opportunity to cement his legacy.
As the rising power in the region, China should show confidence from its position of strength by reaching out to the Taiwan people through actions such as supporting the island's observer status at the World Health Organization, brokering a free-trade agreement, or removing its weaponry targeting the island.
In closing, I want to say again that the U.S.-China relationship will be the most important bilateral relationship of the future, and we must not let confrontation over Taiwan derail the progress that has already been achieved over the past 30 years. If indeed, the U.S. and China are to be the dominant powers of the 21 st Century, we must find a way to live together amicably.
Thank you. And I'll be happy to take any questions.

Joy of Birding
Hone your birding skills with some of America's top birders, including famed author Pete Dunne, while reveling in more than 200 species of New England birds, from warblers and thrushes to puffins and guillemots.
Mid-June is the peak of the nesting season, and participants will take a boat trip around Eastern Egg Rock, home to Atlantic Puffins, Black Guillemots and Roseate, Common and Arctic Terns. At this time, the island is a hub of activity during the egg-laying and hatching season. A stop and short walk on nearby Wreck Island offers close-up views of a Great Blue Heron colony and views of chicks in large aerial nests.
On mainland trips we will visit nearby mainland birding hotspots that offer habitat for shorebirds, forest, and marsh birds. Hog Island itself is home to Bald Eagles, Ospreys and dozens of species of nesting songbirds, such as Parula, Blackburnian, and Black-throated Green Warblers.
"Your program, staff, environs and heritage are an absolute TREASURE. Memories of the "Joy of Birding" week will live contentedly in my heart for a very long time. Thank you for caring about our wonderful world and it's future."- Rick, CAD programmer, Pennsylvania
Whether you're a beginning birder or an old hand, our enthusiastic, engaging instructors, small-group field trips, and informal instruction will make you a far better birder. Read more about the difference between Joy of Birding and Field Ornithology.

Participants must arrange transportation to and from the Audubon dock in Bremen at the start and end of the session (see directions page).

"All mind-bogglingly wonderful! I had such a great time. I not only learned a lot, but it hit me for the first time, how much the birding leaders know: Weather, geology, geography, botany, entomology, predator-prey relationships........egad! I was frankly a little awed by being in the presence of such great leaders in the field. So impressive!" - Jan, occupational therapist, Connecticut

Though the LG Chocolate is beautifully designed and offers a respectable mix of features and performance, it doesn't quite live up to the hype.
Despite our issues with the browser and the uninteresting design, the LG Chocolate Touch is a terrific music phone for Verizon Wireless.
The LG VX8550 Chocolate is definitely a big improvement over the original Chocolate, with a beautiful yet functional design plus a host of impressive features to boot.
Chocolate experts from Nestle set about crafting a chocolate teapot that can stand up to boiling water and still turn out a lovely cup of tea.
These anatomically correct chocolate skulls on Etsy make for the perfect Halloween centerpiece or creepy holiday treat.
Are you a scientist? Do you like chocolate? Are you an EU national? If you answered yes to those three questions, consider a delicious job opening at Cambridge.
The LG Pouch with Swivel Clip and Wristlet offers a stylish and convenient way to protect and carry your new LG Chocolate.
Pricing not available
The LG Chocolate 3's design doesn't quite match up to its predecessors, but upgraded features like a built-in FM transmitter makes it a worthy music phone purchase.
Pricing not available
As if chocolate wasn't good enough already, a Swiss company has figured out a way to decorate it with additive-free holograms.
Soon, we'll want to use wearable tech to express everything. Famed chocolate maker Cadbury is ahead of the trend.

Formula maker rebounds from infant death scare
Could this mean long-term growth for Mead Johnson?
Mead Johnson shares were up nearly 4% Tuesday afternoon to $71.41.
On Dec. 22, the first newborn was preliminarily diagnosed with the rare bacteria, Cronabacteris, after reportedly being fed the Enfamil baby formula made by Mead Johnson.
Cronabacteris is said to be an extremely rare bacteria that causes fatal infections in the bloodstream and central nervous systems, especially in infants with a weak immune system. Only 50 or so cases have been identified in the last 40 years, according to Wall Street Journal.
Wal-Mart (WMT) and other retailers, including Kroger (KR) and Walgreens (WAG), pulled all similarly packaged units of the allegedly tainted Enfamil product as a precaution.
Specifically, Wal-Mart pulled the formula out of more than 3,000 stores in 49 states shortly after it pulled the product from its Lebanon, Mo., store, where the fateful bottle fed to the dead infant had been purchased.
After the news of the infant death hit, and the product was pulled by many retailers, shares of Mead Johnson were under much pressure, falling over 13% within a few days.
From the start of the ordeal, Mead Johnson spokesman Chris Perille assured Benzinga that Mead Johnson was confident in the safety and quality of its products.
Mead Johnson then conducted a new round of rigorous tests on samples of a batch of Enfamil Premium Newborn powdered formula related to an FDA investigation. The company concluded that its new tests did not detect any presence of Cronobacter.
These tests, over the weekend, further and officially confirmed that the Mead Johnson product was safe, and no presence of Cronobacter was detected. This is consistent with the two rounds of testing conducted by Mead Johnson.
"Retailers should be confident in the safety of Enfamil Newborn (formula), based on results of tests performed by the FDA, CDC and Mead Johnson," Perille told Benzinga. "Each chain has its own unique process to work through, but we are aware of a number of national and regional retailers that are releasing the batch they pulled and held back into regular inventory."
A Wal-Mart spokesperson said the company is reviewing the test results and will work with federal agencies and Mead Johnson to determine the appropriate next steps.
When retailers return the formula back to the shelves is likely immaterial, as investors are finding these final results from the FDA and CDC favorable to Mead Johnson.

ROME, Ga. (AP) - Filming of a movie in the northwest Georgia city of Rome will involve a low-flying helicopter, several road closures and detours and a funeral scene in a local cemetery.
The Rome News-Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/10GwCfZ ) that filming of the Dreamworks motion picture "Need for Speed" is set to begin Thursday and continue through Sunday.
The Greater Rome Convention and Visitor's Bureau said the film stars Dominic Cooper, Aaron Paul, Michael Keaton and Imogen Poots in a story about a cross-country race framed by a massive bounty.
Filming will take place on the Rome bypass, Cave Spring Road and at Myrtle Hill Cemetery, where a funeral scene is to be shot on Thursday.
Officials say a helicopter will be used for filming and may be flown closer than 500 feet from the ground.

Local Teamsters 215 are picketing in Evansville, but they are not on strike.
14 News received a tip about this early Thursday morning so we went to check it out.
The Allied Waste workers who are picketing told us it's in honor of their fellow teamsters who are on strike in Youngstown, Ohio.
Our NBC station there tells us they were told by Republic Services there will be a disruption in trash pick up in some counties, although they did not say why.
That NBC affiliate has also received calls about a strike at the landfill.
It was just this summer that our Local Teamsters 215 were on the picket line and in a lockout with Allied Waste for several weeks negotiating a contract.
"These people work hard for their money just like plenty of people in this community do," says Chuck Whobrey, President of Teamster Local 215. "But we should not be ashamed for supporting our fellow workers and sometimes there might be an inconvenience but none of our members have ever wanted to be on strike."
The City of Evansville says the informational picket by Allied Waste and Republic Services union employees has caused a one-day delay in trash and recycling pickup. They say trash and recycling pickup will resume Friday for Thursday service and Saturday for Friday service.

I love this perfume, there's no doubt about that, but I just don't think it holds up as well as it should for the price. I spray once on the inside of my wrist and once on my neck and by mid-day the scent is barely there. Maybe I need more to spray more, but I'm a "one-two spritz" believer.
Again, I love it, but for the price it really should last longer than it does.
