(LOS ANGELES, CA) -- Vivid Entertainment, the world's leading adult film company, has renewed its interest in having Nadya "Octomom" Suleman perform in one of its upcoming movies.
With news that Nadya is once again close to foreclosure on her California home and faces an October deadline to come up with a $450,000 balloon payment, the company has made her another substantial offer.
In a letter to Nadya, Vivid founder/co-chairman Steven Hirsch says, "We have an easy and ready solution for you to relieve yourself of this financial problem. We are offering you the opportunity to perform in one scene, for one hour in one of our movies and we will pay you up to $500,000."
"We can arrange for this to happen quickly so that you will get paid in advance of your October deadline."
"We urge you to give our offer serious consideration. We will work closely with you in planning your scene to make this an enjoyable experience for you," he added.
Gossip sites have reported that Nadya is close to going on welfare in order to support her 14 children. If she accepts the offer from Vivid, she will be able to avoid both foreclosure and welfare.
"I hope to hear from her very quickly," says Hirsch. "It appears she has no time to waste and I feel confident that she will be pleased with the results of her shoot with us."

Karachi - An editorial in a Pakistan daily has said the country's judicial system is ill- equipped to meet the challenge of eliminating terrorists.
It cited discussions in the recently concluded International Judicial Conference in Islamabad where Chief Justice Iftikar Mohammad Chaudhary said that the country's laws needed to be brought into conformity with international legal provisions against terrorism.
"Our intelligence and security services and the police are woefully inadequately equipped, conceptually or in practice, to combat the most serious existential threat the state has faced in its entire history. The Bannu jailbreak is only the latest demonstration of this fact. Everything is 'business as usual', notwithstanding occasional reactive steps whenever an incident like Bannu occurs," the editorial added.
The Daily Times editorial said no place in the country is adequately protected or safe and added that the authorities have now set up check posts on all routes leading out of the Bannu prison after the jailbreak incident, which can be described as a classic case of bolting the stable gate after the horse has long fled.
It said the guards at the Bannu prison hardly offered any resistance and submitted to militants' authority when they stormed the prison, break open the gates and helped 384 prisoners to escape from the jail.
It also pointed out that a key convict in former president Pervez Musharraf's murder attempt case, Adnan Rashid had access to cellphone and social networking sites, while being lodged in the Bannu prison.
The editorial stressed that Pakistan needs an overarching anti-terrorism agency, which is capable of coordinating with federal and provincial law enforcement authorities, provide the requisite training to anti-terrorism outfits, and raise, if required, specialised units and experts dedicated to combat terrorism.

about autophagy...
Autophagy is a highly conserved eukaryotic pathway for sequestering and transporting bulk cytoplasm, including proteins and organelle material, to the lysosome for degradation (reviewed in 13). Upon starvation for nutrients such as carbon, nitrogen, sulfur, and various amino acids, or upon endoplasmic reticulum stress, cells initiate formation of a double-membrane vesicle, termed an autophagosome, that mediates this process (14, 15, reviewed in 16). Approximately 30 autophagy-related (Atg) proteins have been identified in S. cerevisiae, 17 of which are essential for formation of the autophagosome (reviewed in 17). Null mutations in most of these genes prevent induction of autophagy, and cells do not survive nutrient starvation; however, these mutants are viable in rich medium. Some of the Atg proteins are also involved in a constitutive biosynthetic process termed the cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway, which uses autophagosomal-like vesicles for selective transport of hydrolases aminopeptidase I (Lap4p) and alpha-mannosidase (Ams1p) to the vacuole (5, 18).
Autophagy proceeds via a multistep pathway (a summary diagram (download pdf) kindly provided by Dan Klionsky). First, nutrient availability is sensed by the TORC1 complex and also cooperatively by protein kinase A and Sch9p (19, 20). Second, signals generated by the sensors are transmitted to the autophagosome-generating machinery comprised of the 17 Atg gene products. These 17 proteins collectively form the pre-autophagosomal structure/phagophore assembly site (PAS). The PAS generates an isolation membrane (IM), which expands and eventually fuses along the edges to complete autophagosome formation. At the vacuole the outer membrane of the autophagosome fuses with the vacuolar membrane and autophagic bodies are released, disintegrated, and their contents degraded for reuse in biosynthesis (21 and reviewed in 17).
about autophagic ubiquitin-like conjugation
Formation of autophagosomes requires a number of autophagy proteins that are involved in one of two ubiquitin-like conjugation systems, the Atg12 and Atg8 systems (reviewed in 22 and 23). The final product of these two systems is a lipidated form of Atg8p that appears to be required for membrane tethering and hemifusion, which are essential for autophagosome formation (8). In the Atg12 system, the ubiquitin-like protein Atg12p is activated by the E1-like enzyme Atg7p and then transferred to Atg10p, an enzyme with E2-like activity (24, 25). Atg12p is then constitutively and irreversibly conjugated to Atg5p, which is the only Atg12p target (in contrast to ubiquitin which has many targets; (24 and reviewed in 22). After Atg12p-Atg5p conjugation, Atg16p associates with the conjugate, resulting in a ~350kDa complex (26). It is hypothesized that the role of Atg16p in this complex is to properly localize the Atp12p-Atg5p conjugate, which acts as an E3-like enzyme in the Atg8 conjugation system (27). In the Atg8 system, the other autophagic ubiquitin-like protein Atg8p is first cleaved at its C-terminal end by the cysteine protease Atg4p, which is structurally similar to deubiquitinating enzymes (7). The proteolytically processed form of Atg8p is then activated by Atg7p and transferred to Atg3p, another E2-like enzyme (24, 6). Finally, Atg8p is conjugated to the lipid phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), a reaction stimulated by the E3-like activity from the Atg5p-Atg12p complex (27). Atg8p-PE conjugation is reversible; deconjugation is mediated by Atg4p and interferes with membrane fusion (8).
about the Cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) pathway
Cytoplasm-to-vacuole targeting (Cvt) is a constitutive and specific form of autophagy that uses autophagosomal-like vesicles for selective transport of hydrolases aminopeptidase I (Lap4p) and alpha-mannosidase (Ams1p) to the vacuole (5, 18). Unlike autophagy, which is primarily a catabolic process, Cvt is a biosynthetic process. Like autophagosomes, Cvt vesicles form at a structure known as the phagophore assembly site (PAS) (also called the pre-autophagosomal structure). The PAS structure generates an isolation membrane (IM), which expands and eventually fuses along the edges to complete vesicle formation. At the vacuole, the outer membrane of the Cvt vesicle fuses with the vacuolar membrane, the vesicle is degraded, and the cargos are released and processed into their mature forms by vacuolar peptidases (reviewed in 28). The Cvt pathway has not been observed outside of yeast, and enzymes specifically involved in this pathway are not well conserved in other organisms (29 and references therein).
about ATG8
Atg8p is required for both the Cvt and autophagy pathways; Atg8p plays a role in expansion of the phagophore during autophagosome formation, and levels of Atg8p determine the size of the autophagosome (9, 30). While most of the Atg8p-PE is released during formation of autophagosomes, a portion remains associated with the completed structure and thus serves as an experimental marker for these structures (9, reviewed in 31). ATG8 gene expression is induced at least 10-fold in response to starvation, with mRNA levels peaking after about 30 minutes (2, 32). Starvation causes localization of the protein to shift from small cytoplasmic structures to the isolation membranes of nascent autophagosomes, where Atg8p appears to promote the fusion of these membranes necessary for autophagosome formation (2, 30, 8). The change in Atg8p localization requires functional Atg4p, Atg7p, Atg3p, and the carboxy terminal glycine of Atg8p, all of which are required to mediate the conjugation of Atg8p to PE through an amide bond between the C-terminal glycine and the amino group of PE (reviewed in 22). Atg4p cleaves this amide bond, effectively releasing some of the Atg8p from the autophagosome, an important step in maturation of the structure (7). Null atg8 mutations severely impair formation of autophagosomes (2).
Atg8p in mammals is a multigene family, consisting of
about autophagy nomenclature
The initial identification of factors involved in autophagy was carried out by several independent labs, which led to a proliferation of nomenclature for the genes and gene products involved. The differing gene name acronyms from these groups included APG, AUT, CVT, GSA, PAG, PAZ, and PDD (1 and references therein). A concerted effort was made in 2003 by the scientists working in the field to unify the nomenclature for these genes, and "AuTophaGy-related" genes are now denoted by the letters ATG (1). In addition to the ATG gene names that have been assigned to S. cerevisiae proteins and their orthologs, several ATG gene names, including ATG25, ATG28, and ATG30, have been used to designate proteins in other ascomycete yeast species for which there is no identifiable equivalent in S. cerevisiae (29, 36).

Manchester Crimewatch: Woman accused of stalking after asking for ride to court
MANCHESTER - Susan Lombard, 45, who pleaded innocent to a simple assault charge Monday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division, pleaded innocent Tuesday to a stalking charge that alleges she had contact with the assault victim.
Because that is a violation of her bail conditions, the police prosecutor filed a motion to revoke Lombard's bail and she will be held until a bail revocation hearing today.
Lombard is accused of calling the alleged victim, with whom she shared an apartment at 1475 Bodwell Road, for a ride to court Monday and was arrested at court after her arraignment on the assault charge.
A police prosecutor said Lombard has a deferred sentence on a conviction for assaulting the same man in Derry last year.
In court Tuesday, Lombard told Judge Gregory Michael that she could live with her daughter if released on bail.
Trial on both charges was set for Feb. 28, 2013.
Winter odd/even parking is in effect
Neville Padmore, 56, of 166 Amory St., pleaded no contest Tuesday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to an odd/even parking violation of the winter street parking rules that went into effect Dec. 1.
Police prosecutor Lt. Ron Mello said because Padmore had paid for some other outstanding tickets, he recommended suspending the standard $25 fine on the odd/even violation for one year of good behavior.
An obviously irritated Padmore asked Judge Gregory Michael what the parking rules are, but Michael said Padmore needed to get that information from the city.
According to the city website, the odd or even day starts at midnight. If you park your car before midnight, park on the side of the street that corresponds to the following day, odd or even. And, of course, when a snow emergency is declared, there is no parking on either side of the street.
Christmas break on theft charge
Circuit Court-Manchester District Division Judge Gregory Michael told a Derry woman that only the Christmas spirit was preventing him from sentencing her to a few days in jail on a theft plea.
Elizabeth Freitas, 41, of 3 Cemetery Road, pleaded guilty to a theft by unauthorized taking charge for walking out of JCPenney with merchandise without paying for it Nov. 26.
After a police prosecutor said Freitas was convicted of shoplifting July 17, 2008, Michael said it is his practice to sentence people to a few days in jail for a second theft, but he said being close to Christmas saved her.
Michael asked Freitas how she would feel if she went home and found someone had stolen her belongings.
"Stealing is stealing," he said. "Keep your hands off other people's property."
Michael modified the prosecutor's proposed $200 fine plus penalty assessment, payable immediately, and six-month sentence in the House of Corrections, suspended for two years of good behavior.
Michael made it a $1,000 fine with $800 suspended for three years of good behavior, so she still had to pay $200 plus a $48 penalty assessment immediately. He also changed the six-month suspended sentence to one year in the House of Corrections and suspended that for three years of good behavior.

It allows your target audience to engage and interact with your brand, product or service in ways that involve one or all of your senses. Personal experiences with your brand is what helps to build and deepen that connection. That sense of personal involvement and identifying with your brand not only helps drive sales, but more importantly, increases your brand image, awareness and loyalty.
Experiential marketing is the difference between telling people about features of a product or service and letting them experience the benefits for themselves. Creating brand experiences that truly touch hearts and move minds involves a sophisticated, carefully orchestrated mix of technology, strategy, content creation, design and as and when required, cultural insight and expertise.
The appreciable difference in working with Cineviz is that we do it all. And we're phenomenal in every area.
Marketing and branding is the core of what we do. It requires that oft talked about but hard to find right brain, left brain balance. Thankfully for us, we hit the jackpot with the strategically creative or is it creatively strategic people who work here. Our integrated approach is centered on creating unforgettably engaging solutions that deliver results – the ROIs as well as the intangibles like brand connection and loyalty.
Experiential marketing is all about engaging the senses. The first sense that's almost always involved is sight. Visual imagery provides your brand that instant opportunity to build a sensory experience with your customer.
Design at Cineviz extends from graphic design to design custom products and displays. Whatever form our design takes on, we believegreat design can only come from a deep understanding of the target audience's emotion and rational drivers. It's that critical insight that allows design to speak to its intended audience and move them. We call that wordless eloquence.
Technology, amazing as it is, becomes mind-boggling spectacular when paired with intelligent, creative and highly visual content. With Cineviz, you have techies that are as comfortable creating content as they are developing custom software and hardware. From design to dynamic content authoring, 3-D animation to video production, post production to motion graphics, Cineviz is your comprehensive single source.
Cultural sensitivity and understanding are vital elements of any global branding and marketing effort. Your brand and message needs to be conveyed consistently across all markets and cultures.
Whether it's a US produced corporate video, TV commercial or mobile application, if it needs to be adapted for use in Mongolia, Russia, Brazil and Indonesia, Cineviz is the answer. We work closely with renowned culture and language experts, Quicksilver Translate out of Barcelona, Spain to ensure that is culturally appropriate for its intended market. Together, we're able to produce global marketing material that look and feel like they were produced locally.
We're geeks and we're proud of it. We're probably some of the luckiest people because we don't consider what we do work. It's really play and we have some of the coolest toys around to tinker with and make even better. Did we mention we're technology agnostic when it comes to crafting solutions? We'll mix and match any or all relevant technologies to create and deliver a unique, un-biddable experience.

The album won the 2007 Nationwide Mercury Prize. After playing festivals and headlining tours worldwide (including the NME Indie Rave Tour) during late 2006–2007, the band started working on their follow-up album in July 2007. Klaxons' second album, Surfing the Void, was released on 23 August 2010. Their 3rd album, Love Frequency, was released on 16 June 2014.

Commitment to sounding dumb
I finished "High Output Management" yesterday and, generally speaking, it's a pretty good read on management. The engineering bent may rub people the wrong way but focusing on managerial leverage to increase output is a pretty nifty way of narrowing the discussion.
Anyway, in one section he reminded me that both managers and individual contributors often refrain from sharing information or asking questions for fear of sounding dumb. Less information + fewer questions is likely to lead to lower quality output. Not a good thing.
Clearly this isn't the first time I've heard this, the "There are no stupid questions" has been tossed around many times in and out of work. However, for some reason this time it hit home a little harder and my new commitment is to "sound dumb" at work more. I'm sure my team is shuddering now but I want to challenge them to make their information and decision making even clearer and for other managers to do the same. We'll see how it goes.
At the very lease I promise not to be these people.
The Best Get Better
A few weeks ago Phoenix played in SF and my good friend @rohnjobinson hooked me up with a ticket and Kate scored one through her cousin. Needless to say the show was amazing. Intimate venue, they brought the noise, didn't shy away from their new stuff, and played songs I'd heard them play in ways I'd never heard before. Inspiring stuff.
It got me thinking about the best people, companies and products I've ever seen. Ultimately it's all the same: the best keep getting better. They find that one reason (or problem or person or whatever) that inspires them and they continue to get better. If the old inspiration isn't enough they find something new and push hard. It's so awesome.
Good managers? They're learning new ways to manager a team, they're pushing to learn more about the industry, they're always asking for feedback on what they can do better.
Good products? They get faster, cheaper, more powerful and they're not afraid to totally shake up their own business. They go right at The Innovators Dilemma.
Sometimes the best fail. That's pretty obvious. They'll have bad days, weeks, etc. and product releases will fail and Phoenix probably bombs a set or two (actually they probably don't) but you can be damn sure they get better.
What was already an awesome song is made better. Trust me

This song has been up in my head all day long. Might as well keep it up tonight. Pretty much the story of my life with @katevitt as well

A Favorite Article on Strategy
I think I've sent this around more than any other business focused article in my life. I love the anecdotes, the focus on "prepared minds" and the willingness to experiment and react. Jives perfectly with my own experiences in successful and unsuccessful strategy planning. It's also a lot more fun to think about strategy like this.

The Botticellis have an obsession with pop music, melodic songwriting and the cinematic sounds of yesteryear, but they're not lost in some oldies Neverland. On Old Home Movies, the quintet gives us ten luminous snapshots of sun-bleached memories. The vision is uniquely Californian, and while their music basks in the warmth of the Sunshine State personified by The Beach Boys, it's also steeped in the shadows and queasy uncertainty of Raymond Chandler.
The Botticellis began when Zack Ehrlich and Alexi Glickman met playing Suzuki violin duets in a southern California kindergarten class. They started writing songs together in grammar school and continued playing in bands together in high school and college. While studying music at UC Santa Cruz, they met lo-fi auteur, Burton Li, who helped produce an early album for the duo. Li soon jo...

Bill O'Reilly Compares Contraception Coverage To Denmark Distributing Heroin To Prevent Crime
By Heather March 2, 2012 9:42 pm -
Bill O'Reilly decided to jump the shark right along with his fellow blowhard, Rush Limbaugh and tell lies about Sandra Fluke's testimony before the Democratic forum in the House. O'Reilly, like Limbaugh tried to paint Fluke as wanting taxpayers to pay for her "activities" and lied repeatedly, claiming that contraceptive coverage costs money as opposed to saving it.
We welcome relevant, respectful comments. Please refer to our Terms of Service for information on our posting policy.

"The timeless Asimov genius..."
This is yet another shining example of Asimov???s grasp of theoretical physics and social responsibilities that was way ahead of his time. Considering that he wrote this in 1952, the science is sound concerning, the working of stars, and is still widely held by many experts today. He also addresses the disparity between the working class who are trapped by their linage and the aristocratic ruling classes with their view of cheapened life of these workers.
"Flick Lives! The classic radio Shep"
Though the 'Christmas Story' is Shepheds most recognized work, this is a great way for folks to listen to the shows that defined this talented story weaver.

UGA is a finalist for one of the state's top college basketball prospects, and making a run at one of his teammates.
Milton High shooting guard Dai-Jon Parker has an in-home visit this week with UGA coach Mark Fox. UGA, Georgia Tech and Wake Forest are the three finalists for Parker's heralded teammate, power forward Julian Royal. Both are ranked among the nation's top 100 players.
"Coach Fox likes [Parker's] athleticism, he likes that he can shoot it, and he likes the fact that he's a winner … everywhere Dai-Jon goes, his teams win," said his AAU coach, Kenny Loyd of the Georgia Netburners.
"I think Coach Fox believes he can learn from the current point guard and be a good player there. They think he can get in the rotation relatively quickly if he goes to Georgia."
The 6-foot-4 Parker has taken recruiting trips to Vanderbilt and Florida State (last weekend). He has official visits scheduled to Oregon State on Friday and Charlotte in October. He has traveled to Georgia so many times over the years he is unlikely to use one of his visits to Athens, but it won't affect his consideration of the Bulldogs.
Parker is one of the state's best defenders. He also has above-average range on his outside shot, while also being known for his spectacular dunks that can provide game-changing momentum. He and Parker helped Milton High win last year's state championship in Georgia's largest classification.

Parker seems like the type of player who will be a big part of the fastest rising basketball program in the South. Fox is building something special. UGA is being considered by the top players.
Parker: Go to UGA and be a home state hero with a coach that can actually coach you up.

No one has signed anything yet. But with that said, CMF is obviously working his 'behind' off. The same people who didn't like this hire, will be the first to 'fret' when more established basketball programs come calling.
It is clear this guy will build a solid program. It might happen quickly, it might be three/four years. UGA needs to go back and 'up' the contract now and build in a 'nasty' buy out clause.

Kevin – I see right through you…. closet Tech Nerd trying to make UGA ventors look like racist red necks won't work…. I know you are hoping Parker sees your comments, gets mad, and writes UGA off his list but he isn't going to Tech because Hewitt is one more losing year and done. UGA has a great coach and showed that he can't get a lot out of his players. He is a great teacher and Parker would benefit from his knowledge. UGA will be in the sweet 16 this year and Tech will be at home.

He should go to Vanderbilt. He will be "coached up there", he will win there, he will enjoy it there. They just got one of the best PG's in the nation. He should join him in this class and really make an impact. If he stays home, great, but if he doesn't, I hope he goes to Vanderbilt.

the brass breather /overflow tube that is connected to the inside of the petrol filler cap housing on my sons sv 650 has become detached, apart from leaking fuel out of the filler cap when braking does this tube affect engine running in any way ( his bike seem to run erratic at times and i'm wondering if the tank is becoming slightly de pressurised due to this detached tube)? and what would be the method of repair, can it be soldered or is it a job for a specialist?

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WECT) – A fourth suspect was taken into custody just before 1:00 Friday afternoon in connection to a home invasion that happened earlier in the day.
Bernard Rashad Samuel, 22, Tarlester Lamont Green, 37, Harry Leon Hankins III, 25, and Antonio Lemark Green, 34, have all been arrested and face multiple charges, a spokesperson with ther sheriff's office confirms.
Samuel, Tarlester Green and Hankins all face 32 charges, including including kidnapping and robbery with a dangerous weapon, while Antonio Green faces 31 charges including kidnapping and robbery with a dangerous weapon.
Some of the other charges the suspects face include the following:
Wrightsboro Elementary went under lockdown Friday morning while deputies with the New Hanover County Sheriff's Office were in the area investigating the incident.
According to New Hanover County Schools, the sheriff's office conducted a controlled dismissal of Wrightsboro students.
Three of the four suspects accused of entering a home on Misty Lane were taken into custody shortly after the crime was reported.
Someone called 911 Friday morning to report a breaking and entering. The caller was able to give authorities a good description of the vehicle, which deputies quickly found.
When officials stopped the vehicle, two people in the back of the truck ran. Deputies arrested two others at that time who were in the truck.
A third suspect was arrested when someone in the neighborhood called 911 because they thought someone was in the garage.
Deputies were able to talk the man out of the garage and arrested him with no incident.
The lockdown was lifted after a K-9 tracked the scent of the fourth suspect to the 2500 block of Castle Hayne Road, where he was hiding under a truck before running across the road and being apprehended.

Why The Onion's tweet about Quvenzhané Wallis made me so upset
When our children take their turn in the spotlight, they have the right to leave it unscathed. It's our job as adults to protect them.
By Sabrina James
Last night I sat down to watch the Oscar red carpet with my 6-year-old daughter Kaia. She played dress-up with her American Girl doll while I followed the commentary on Twitter. "Look, Mommy! Julie's all ready for the red carpet," she exclaimed, showing off the updo she created for her doll. She watched with mild interest until the moment we'd been waiting for arrived: Nine-year-old Quvenzhané Wallis appeared in a frenzy of flashing camera lights with her mom and sister in tow. "Look, Mommy, there she is! Look at her purse! It's a puppy!" Kaia jumped up and down. "I want one of those!" What a moment! I wanted my daughter to see a little girl, just like her, walking the red carpet among the most talented women in Hollywood. Quvenzhané did not disappoint. She was sassy and confident while talking to reporters. And she was dressed in a perfectly age-appropriate Armani gown that she chose because "it's sparkly!" Her mom looked on, proud as can be. I had a tear in my eye. "Do you know that she's going to play Annie in the new movie?" I asked. Kaia's smile was so big. "Wow, Mommy! She's the luckiest girl in the world!"
PLUS: The Best of Oscars 2013
I have been a huge fan of Quvenzhané from the moment I saw the trailer for Beasts of the Southern Wild. She made the movie when she was only 6 years old and earned herself a Best Actress Oscar nomination for her performance. She deserves a standing ovation from us. Instead, last night, on her special night, she was subjected to the most distasteful showing of adult "humor" I have ever seen. It started with a "joke" by Oscar host Seth MacFarlane about how it will be "sixteen years before she's too old" for George Clooney, but sadly it didn't stop there. The popular satire site The Onion tweeted the following to its more than 4 million followers during the show last night:
"Everyone else seems afraid to say it, but that Quvenzhané Wallis is kind of a ____, right?"
(If you want to see the actual tweet, it's here.)
As if it wasn't bad enough that she was sexualized in front of her peers during what was undoubtedly the most exciting night of her life, but to be further humiliated on a social networking site and called one of the most degrading terms that can be used toward women is reprehensible. The Onion is a satire site and although I am acutely aware that they didn't mean it, does that make it better? Am I supposed to laugh at the absurdity of the statement? Am I supposed to look at my daughter and think, wow, it would be really really funny and smart if someone jokingly called her the c word? How ironic.
Many online have tried to make this a race issue. Saying she was singled out because she's a young black girl. I hope that's not the case. To me, this has less to do with race and everything to do with the fact that we have stopped respecting the innocence of our children. We've become so desensitized by the Toddlers and Tiaras culture that we take hurtful aim at those who epitomize childhood as much as the fluffy puppy purses they carry on the red carpet. Imagine what went through Quvenzhané's mother's mind when someone pulled her aside last night to tell her what happened. Did her stomach bottom out like mine did? Did she look at her daughter with a tear in her eye and thinkwhy? Why tonight? What is wrong with this world?
I want my little girl to know she can do anything she sets her mind to. She can be herself, silly purse and all, and star in whatever version of life she desires. Kaia went to sleep last night clutching her American Girl doll tight, updo still in place, as I imagine Q did with her puppy purse. Both, I am sure, completely unaware of the storm brewing online in defense of little girls like them. In defense of their innocence. When our children take their turn in the spotlight, they have the right to leave it unscathed. It's our job as adults to protect them.
I wish the headlines today were different. I wish we lived in a world where Quvenzhané could wake up this morning and search the internet with her mama to find herself on our best-dressed lists. To see celebrities like Oprah and Beyoncé, her biggest fans, rave about her. Instead her family must hide the horrible truth from her. The truth that our media took a cheap shot at someone too small to stand up for herself or to even know what the word she was called means.
The way we treat our kids is no laughing matter. Quvenzhané Wallis is a lot of things. She is smart. She is sassy. She is talented. She is beautiful. And she is a child. She is not the c word. But thanks to the insensitive staffer at The Onion who decided to tweet and then recant the vulgar comment, this incident too is one of the ways she'll be remembered.
As chief executive Steve Hannah of the Onion wrote in his apology this morning, "Miss Wallis, you are young and talented and deserve better. All of us at The Onion are deeply sorry." We all are, little girl. So, so sorry.

So today I get a phone call from a friend who is in Dominican Republic in Santo Domingo (downtown core), and I think he is starting to figure out the he isn't in Calgary anymore as his internet connectivity is driving him wild with its slow speed. Anyone have any suggestions as to which ISP he should be using etc or any other comments or suggestions?ThanksBlake--Vendor: Author of Link Logger which is a traffic analysis and firewall logging tool
The 2 best options right now are Claro(up to 50mbit/2mbit for USD$ 639... which I would never pay) and Tricom(up to 5mbit/768k for USD$96, 28% tax included in both prices), both ISPs have the same prices for their first 4 plans, and both are good, as long as you're close enough to their exchanges. I had ADSL from Claro for 6-7 years, but had to cancel it 2 years ago due to constant disconnects that they could never fix during 4 months of calls, tickets and tech visits, being too far from the exchange made it much worse... 58dB attenuation. Right now I have 2mbit/512k with Tricom, that's USD$44 monthly, the connection is 100% stable and I always get the advertised speeds(40dB attenuation with this ISP).
Thanks, I'll pass that on.Blake

In his growing beer business, Constellation Brands Inc. CFO Robert Ryder says managing swings in foreign currencies and commodity prices have become a bigger part of the job. He spoke with CFO Journal's Emily Chasan about setting up a new hedging program and explaining it to investors.
Former Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman Christopher Cox, who spent much of his time in office advocating for the U.S. to move to global accounting rules, says he no longer believes it's possible.
The move is an about-face from a man who was once the biggest advocate for International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). It was his SEC in 2008 that first laid out the ill-fated road map proposal that would have given U.S. companies the option to use IFRS as early as 2014. But the agency has had continued delays and no decisions since.

After more than a decade spent aligning U.S. and international accounting rules, the U.S. Financial Accounting Standards Board is shifting its attention back toward domestic standards.
Going forward, the board expects it will focus on improving GAAP while working to "cooperate and coordinate as peers" with the IASB and other accounting standard setters around the world, James Kroeker, vice chairman of the FASB said on Thursday.
Public companies have until 2017 to prepare for a new global standard for recording revenue, giving finance chiefs ample time to let Wall Street know how the new accounting rules will speed up or draw out their recognition of sales.

Newly public venture-backed companies are getting more conservative in their use of tailor-made financial indicators that don't comply with generally accepted accounting principles. That's at least partly because securities regulators say they have gotten tougher on the use of "bogus" and misleading measures.
International and U.S. accounting rule makers expect to release new revenue recognition rules shortly, and the overhaul could actually help companies simplify their contracts, a former Securities and Exchange Commission official said on Thursday.
Many companies have been poring over their sales contracts for the past few years to understand the consequences that new revenue recognition rules could have on their financial statements.

Consumer research group praises CARD Act
Written by Guest Author
Posted On: March 15, 2012
This is a guest post by Josh Frank in response to Richard Barrington's article "CARD Act may have cost consumers billions." Opinions presented in this post are not necessarily endorsed by CardRatings.com.
New credit card rules mandated by the Credit CARD Act of 2009 have made prices significantly more transparent and lower for consumers—contrary to industry's claims. My research report, "Credit Card Clarity," shows what has gone up is the advertised interest rate on credit card offers, not the actual rate cardholders pay. In short, new rules have curbed the bait-and-switch tactics that permeated the credit card market.
Before the CARD Act, the gap was wide between the interest rates offered in solicitations and the actual rate cardholders paid. Card companies used a host of practices to increase price without consumers realizing. They applied monthly payments using obscure rules that, when a customer had one interest rate for purchases and a higher one for cash advances, caused the overall rate to migrate towards the higher of the two. Card issuers also manipulated how they used indexes to set variable rates, always to a cardholder's disadvantage. These practices became so widespread that the gap widened to unprecedented levels by 2004 and stayed there until 2008.
Then along came reform with, let's remember, wide bipartisan support in Congress. After all, who didn't find credit card practices irksome, if not outright maddening? The gap narrowed markedly after the new law passed, with advertised prices rising to become much closer to actual prices. Not only are prices more transparent as a result, they also are lower. According to Federal Reserve data, the interest rate consumers pay right now on average is at its second lowest level since 1994, when the agency began tracking it.
And the average amount of credit card fees paid has dropped sharply. This has been driven largely by a drop in penalty fees that far outweigh issuers' efforts to raise nuisance fees for cash advances and international transactions. And while credit card offers dropped because of the financial crisis—itself caused by bad lending practices—card offers are widely available again to both prime and subprime consumers. To top it off, complaints about credit cards to the Federal Trade Commission and the Better Business Bureau are down.
Price transparency: Up. Prices and complaints: Down. Offers: Widely available. So who's grousing? Industry-led critics making unfounded claims that commonsense rules and oversight led to higher prices and scarcer credit for consumers. Credit card issuers spin the yarn that credit card reform has been harmful in the hope it will help in their parallel campaign to undo commonsense reform in the mortgage arena and, with the creation of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, all areas of consumer finance. The ongoing crisis in the mortgage market is an example of the harm a lack of commonsense rules brings. Our research shows that, prior to the CARD Act, the credit card industry was another. Price transparency fosters competition, lowering costs long term. Market evidence after the CARD Act confirms this.

Having written the article to which this post is responding, I feel compelled to set the record straight on a couple points. I am not an "industry-led" critic, but an independent financial commentator who, coming from an objective point of view, simply pointed out that there were negative as well as positive outcomes to the CARD act. The negatives cited in my article were not "unfounded claims," but backed by quantitative evidence. As a supporter of financial regulation, I feel that if we can't see the bad as well as the good in how laws are formulated, we stand little chance of improving regulation in the future.Reply»
