Press article: The challenge of cross-border distribution and the registration of UCITS fundsDOWNLOAD
In an effort to gather assets under management fund promoters have for many years been registering their European investment funds for sale in other countries. In the early days of UCITS investment funds, from the first transposition in 1988 onward, the target markets were close to Luxembourg, such as France and Germany. Now the net is being cast further each year as fund promoters seek to service clients in various countries with the same investment fund and thereby gain economies of scale. Evolution of the UCITS market now leaves us in no doubt that Luxembourg is the domicile of choice for the cross border distribution business model. However, the management of this business model entails significant cost and complexity.
Recently, the European Commission has acted on pleas from the fund industry to reduce the costs and delays in the industry and has amended the UCITS regime with what it calls an efficiency package. The aim of UCITS IV, which is due to be implemented into member state law by 1 July 2011, is to further underpin the single market and to reduce time delays and costs.
One aspect of the UCITS IV efficiency package is the revised UCITS cross border notification procedure. Under the existing UCITS regime, which allows for a two month approval period, on occasions there are delays of up to eight weeks implying a turnaround time of 16 weeks. Deloitte estimate the costs of maintaining these cross border registrations to be approximately EUR 50 million given that the 60,000 foreign fund registrations by European's 26,000 UCITS funds stemming from fund promoters active in up to 40 countries according to Lipper FMI data.
The current draft of the UCITS IV proposal includes a revised mechanism for the way in which the UCITS passport should be deployed.
The UCITS IV text states that the notification should be conducted in "no later than ten working days". UCITS IV certainly accelerates the notification process for fund promoters but there are several issues which need to be examined, prior to celebrating an unmitigated success. The new regime is limited to the initial notification so what happens with subsequent submissions? Further the rules do not yet foresee how the transition from the old UCITS III rules to the new UCITS IV rules will be conducted prior to the 1 July 2011 implementation date.
Going forward the profusion of European investment funds may be reduced via the UCITS IV mergers mechanism while the number of cross border registrations may be reduced via UCITS IV master feeder arrangements.
The simplification of the cross border notification procedure is one of the main elements of the UCITS IV efficiency package. With UCITS IV the home state regulator, in Luxembourg's case the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF), will grant the cross border passport; in contrast the European Union "host" member state regulators will no longer have powers of delay or veto.
The UCITS IV proposal foresees a simple instruction in the form of a standardized notification letter (accompanied with various supporting documents) to be sent by the UCITS to its home state regulator, largely consistent with the MiFID, prospectus directive and UCITS management company notification procedure. It is important to note that the home state regulator is not responsible for the verification of marketing arrangements with respect to the host member state regulations. Therefore, it will be the UCITS itself which must ensure the marketing arrangements are compliant prior to instructing the home state of its wish to distribute in the host member state.
A significant success is the option in the UCITS IV proposal to make all UCITS documents, with the exception of the key investor information document, available in the English language. This may contribute to reducing further the time to market as fewer translations will be mandatory. In practice many fund promoters targeting retail clients will continue to translate the prospectus and annual report in order to better service clients and compete with domestic funds.
In Luxembourg it is possible that more UCITS will use the English as the base language for home state purposes to minimize translation requirements when distributing cross border. It is estimated that choice of base language in Luxembourg is currently split 40% French, 20% German and 40% English.
The UCITS IV proposal, like the previous UCITS directives, foresees that the marketing arrangements in the host country are within the jurisdiction of the host member state. The UCITS IV proposal will further highlight the demarcation between the UCITS field of influence and the host member state marketing arrangements. The home state regulator will ensure the completeness of the UCITS documents as referred to in the list above. The less obvious host country marketing arrangements which consist of country specific annexes, paying agency arrangements, proof of regulatory payments and similar obligations will not be validated by the home state regulator and will remain the responsibility of the UCITS. The notion of marketing arrangements is open ended but includes areas such as:
It is in this area, which is outside the remit of the UCITS directive and therefore is not co-ordinated at an EU federal level, that there is a risk that no significant development is made when compared to current practices.
This measure will hopefully reduce the ambiguity currently experienced when registering UCITS cross border. But, given that the host member state is limited to ex post controls, this may increase the instances of regulatory penalties.
In conclusion, the UCITS IV proposal delivers everything the fund industry requested, but due to the remit of the directive a number of potential obstacles may remain, notably in the complexity of host member state marketing arrangements. This will depend on the host member states' willingness to relax rules, such as the need for local paying agents, or maintain their local practices. In order to avoid regulatory sanction, UCITS will need to employ sound due diligence for all cross border activities. Furthermore, the co-ordination between European regulators still needs to be determined including permutations such as how the communication will cascade in the event that a UCITS and its management company are domiciled in different member states and how the transposition of the rules will be handled. Time to market will be improved but overall costs are likely to remain substantially unchanged for retail fund promoters.
CESR's advice on the implementing measures is the next step towards reaping the benefits of the UCITS IV efficiency package.

Tougaloo, MS-The Tougaloo College Lady Bulldogs' Volleyball team hosted the Lady Rams of the University of Mobile here tonight in the Dawg Pound. The Lady Bulldogs dropped a 3-0 (25-17, 25-13, 26-16) decision to the Lady Rams to drop to 9-6 on the season.
After coming off two conference wins last week, the Lady Bulldogs were looking to start this week of games off with a big win over the University of Mobile. Well, the Lady Rams had a different agenda for the Lady Bulldogs, as they were looking to down the Lady Bulldogs in the Dawg Pound. The first set would start out pretty good for the Lady Bulldogs, but somewhere in the middle, the Lady Rams would take off and never look back, taking the set 25-17. In sets two and three, the Lady Bulldogs would try to bounce back, but the Lady Rams would prove to be too much for the Lady Bulldogs, defeating them in straight sets.
Dayane Souza paced the way for the Lady Bulldogs with 9 kills and 9 digs. Jana Williams tacked in 5 kills and 9 digs and Briana Murphy chipped in 5 kills. Mariana Candelot added 18 assists for the Lady Bulldogs. The Lady Bulldogs will be back in action on Thursday as they host Edward Waters College in conference play here at the Dawg Pound. Game time is set for 7:00 P.M.

Translation of the article concerning the achievement itself:
This is a Tribute to the Best Song - well, almost! The Grand Trial of the Crusader went live today on EU-Realms. Instead of diving into the 25-man verison head first, we carefully tried to get a glimpse of the situation (rough translation). Especially Anub'arak got to experience this, when we sneaked up to his butt, having 50 attempts left, and quite excitedly zerged- err, bashed him down.
As you can see, you already covered the main circumstances of this world-first :)

You are a Fucking Moron
This series points out who is a fucking moron, and why!
Created back in 2006, with some my friends a simple clay animation of bears at a rave, you can see its rather simple but I thought a gem like this worth worth showing as my day 4 for a laugh.
Not much else to say except view all the weeks animations ;)
oh music created in Garageband ;)
Day 1 (paper-mation) - http://www.newgrounds.com /portal/view/554450
Day 2 (hand drawn) - http://www.newgrounds.com /portal/view/554578
Day 3 (Pencil over film) - http://www.newgrounds.com /portal/view/554663
Day 4 (clay) - YOUR VIEWING NOW!
You get my 10 automatically for that.
Nice claymation though. Not too flash but gets the point across.
glad you liked it, and if you like check out my other forms :)
Me likey! I hardly ever see claymation on here>
Have a look at the 3 links in the discription they contain even rarer forms of animation :)
Claymation is pretty cool, but the music really didn't seem fir for a "rave". Was the police guy gonna stick that club up the bears booty? What happened?!?!
Thats true not really rave music, there was a extended version but I have no idea where it went, the policemen talks to the bear and then an old man comes in on a scotter knocks the policemen down and steals his hat, but no idea where that went.
hope this helps ;)
Nice animation, but gimmicky and plain
The animation of the clay was pretty nice, but there was nothing unique about the way it was made or the story itself. Just a couple of bears, having a rave...
Okay, that earned you another point in my book. xD
But yeah, overall just needed more substance to it. If this was a little tech demo of your stop motion techniques, though, I would have given it an 8. =]
This was an old animation which was never complete as was 16 at the time and got distracted easily but this was one my first attempts at any animation form and for the so It had to come online as part of my week, I have shown demo's of a few different forms and looking for the form which people find the best and/or most interesting.

What happens if I miss a dose (Thiotepa)?
Contact your doctor if you miss a dose of thiotepa.
What happens if I overdose (Thiotepa)?
If for any reason an overdose of thiotepa is suspected, seek emergency medical attention or contact your healthcare provider immediately.
Symptoms of a thiotepa overdose tend to be similar to side effects caused by the medication, although often more severe.
What should I avoid while using thiotepa (Thiotepa)?
Thiotepa can lower the activity of your immune system making you susceptible to infections. Avoid contact with people who have colds, the flu, or other contagious illnesses and do not receive vaccines that contain live strains of a virus (e.g., live oral polio vaccine) during treatment with thiotepa. In addition, avoid contact with individuals who have recently been vaccinated with a live vaccine. There is a chance that the virus can be passed on to you.
Skin accidentally exposed to thiotepa should be rinsed thoroughly with soap and warm water.
What other drugs will affect thiotepa (Thiotepa)?
Do not receive "live" vaccines during treatment with thiotepa. Administration of a live vaccine may be dangerous during treatment with thiotepa.
Drugs other than those listed here may also interact with thiotepa. Talk to your doctor and pharmacist before taking any other prescription or over-the-counter medicines, including herbal products, during treatment with thiotepa.
Where can I get more information?
Your healthcare provider may have additional information about thiotepa that you may read.
Remember, keep this and all other medicines out of the reach of children, never share your medicines with others, and use this medication only for the indication prescribed.

Melbourne - Penthouse Pet Simone Farrow, who is alleged to be the boss of a global drugs ring, was nabbed by police after a dramatic raid on the Gold Coast.
She is wanted for fleeing a 150,000-dollar bail.
The blonde swimsuit model, who was on the run for almost a month, was extradited to Sydney on Wednesday night after her arrest at a cheap hotel on the Gold Coast Highway, the Daily Telegraph reported.
Accused of trafficking "ice" in bags of bath salts from a plush Hollywood high-rise, an emotional Farrow broke down and pleaded her innocence on arrival at Sydney airport.
Flanked by two federal police officers, Farrow, 37, claimed that she only fled interstate because "someone was trying to murder me."
She has now been remanded in custody on charges which include the alleged 2009 drug operation. By skipping bail, the model put at risk 150,000-dollar surety put up by a Sydney barrister and a flamboyant doctor.
Police allege that she was the brains behind an "ongoing criminal enterprise" that involved at least seven people.
The alleged enterprise was said to be run from Farrow's apartment, located off Sunset Boulevard.
Police claim Farrow organised for high-grade crystal methylamphetamine, which was often piled up on desks in the apartment, to be mailed to NSW and Victoria hidden in parcels containing "bath products", "pants" or "small fountain kits".
Farrow allegedly developed a method of hiding the drugs inside the bath products, court documents said.
Buyers sent cash to Farrow through the post or made deposits at National Australia Bank branches into her bank account, the court heard.
According to court documents, more than 580,000 dollars was put into her account between February 2009 and October 2010.

Lan's Q & A
Who's your favorite sports team, and why?
My favorite sports team is the National Physique Committee (NPC) because I am a current NPC bikini competitor. It takes a lot of training, dieting, hardwork, and disciplines to be able to compete with all of the competitive athletes for top placing.
What's your favorite movie quote?
"Ain't so funny meow is it?"- Foster Super Troopers
"Oh, you know what? Next week's no good for me; The Jonas Brothers are in town. But any week after that, it's totally fine." -Alan The Hangover "
"Phil: "You're not really wearing that are you?"
Alan: "Wearing what?"
Phil: "The man purse. You actually gonna wear that or are you just (messing) with me?"
Alan: "It's where I keep all my things. Get a lot of compliments on this. Plus it's not a purse, it's called a satchel. Indiana Jones wears one." -The Hangover
Piercings/Tattoos (How many? Where?)
I have my ears and belly button pierced. One tattoo in my lower back with flowers.
What's the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
Haha... I love the song "Dance (A$$)" Big Sean & Nicki Minaj but it was so embarrassing listening to it when I worked out next to the elders because they gave me these weird looks. I think I had the volume up too high ha.
What's the most memorable pick-up line you've ever heard?
"If you were a burger at McDonald's then you would be the McGorgeous"...hahaha
What's the worst job you've ever had?
I don't think I have had a bad job. I enjoyed working at the places that I worked. Mainly worked in retails in my teens and served at Chili's and Max & Ermas in my early 20's.
What's the most dangerous thing you've ever done?
Oh man!!! I can't swim, never have been able to swim but due to a dare, I jumped into the lake. No need to guess, of course I drowned and a few people saved me. Lesson learned, never drink & jump into the lake again hehe :)
It's 4AM after a crazy night out – what are we eating?
No question asked...IHOP!!! If I stay up to party or to close the bar down...I love going to IHOP and eat pancakes, breakfast food, and some fries. That would be a perfect night.
What's the strangest thing in your fridge right now?
Many bottles of wine. I tend to buy different types of wine but for more of a collection than for drinking. Might as well not refrigerate them since they are taking over so much space hehe
What's the naughtiest thing you've ever done in public?
Hmmm...Maybe kissing a girl? I guess I can consider myself as an angel with a naughty side sometimes when I party. Work hard, party harder ;)
What do you feel sexiest wearing?
I feel sexiest wearing a bikini. I love wearing bikinis...can't wait until the summer.
Tell us a joke.
A boy goes to the drug store with his dad and sees the condom display.
Boy: "Dad, why do they do packs of one condom?"
Dad: "Those are for the high schoolers for Friday nights."
Boy: "So, why do they make packs of three?"
Dad: "For the college guys for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights."
Boy: "Then why do they make packs of 12?"
Dad: "Those are for married couples--you know, January, February, March,.."

Drawing on his Thai heritage and more than 20 years of experience behind the grill, Executive Chef Manop Vasant showcases the flavors and traditions of Southeast Asia while sizzling up morsels of meat and veggies behind tableside hibachi grills. Chefs showboat as they slice, dice, and sizzle up patrons' meals and incriminating photographs across the hot iron griddles. Kitchen cooks whip up rice noodles and curry, and sushi chefs coil thin, sashimi-style slices of tuna, avocado, and cucumber in edible rice and seaweed cylinders.
At Bacana Brasil, diners pay a flat fee for unlimited grilled meats, salads, and side dishes. Grill chefs circulate around the rustic and elegant dining area, slicing meat onto plates until feasters can feast no longer, as indicated by a frowny-faced emoticon painted onto a plate using steak sauce. The focused menu features 13 grilled meats, including top sirloin, fillet, bacon-wrapped chicken, sausage, pork, lamb, shrimp, and brisket. On top of that, patrons can grab unlimited salads, hot side dishes, desserts, and roasted banana and pineapple from a buffet. All-you-can-eat dinners are $29.95 Monday through Thursday nights and $31.95 Friday through Sunday. To help a dry palate or dryer conversation, toss back a glass of Argentinean cabernet ($7), Australian shiraz ($10), or a Brazilian beer such as Xingu Black or Palma Louca ($4 each).
Servers bearing 3-foot skewers of slow-cooked meat circulate the dining room looking for green ?go? cards. When diners flash them, they arrive at tables and carve slices of top sirloin, lamb, pork, and chicken?each smoked over mesquite wood?until they?re told to stop. Although the restaurant undoubtedly caters to carnivores, guests who prefer veggies can munch on meatless feasts composed of 35 different items, including caramelized bananas, Brazilian mashed potatoes, and pasta.
Executive Chef James Solomon and owner Dino Karagiannis enrich each of The Tenderloin Room's charbroiled steaks?from New York strip sirloins to porterhouses?with a special blend of seasonings, taken from a secret Karagiannis family recipe. With these tender slabs as its focal point, Chef Solomon builds the rest of his menu around other choice meats such as grilled lamb and seafood including broiled tilapia.
To help wash down each juicy bite, bartender Mary?Dino's oldest daughter? keeps domestic and imported wines on hand. She uncorks selections beneath a shimmering stained glass ceiling, one of several touches that evokes an elegant atmosphere like steakhouses of old. Eleni ?Dino's youngest daughter? greets you at the door, revealing chandeliers illuminating three dining rooms, shedding light on polished wood, wraparound booths, and comfy chairs that have consumed the loose change of stars such as Frank Sinatra and George Clooney.
Though upgraded and modernized with new amenities, Sam's Steakhouse is housed in an early-20th-century building and preserves an Old World charm while offering a selection of succulent steaks. Patrons can sidle up to a wooden bar or sit beneath soft track lighting at a table near a gently crackling fireplace. Large banquet settings and private party rooms are also available to host larger parties. Soft music enhances the atmosphere as appetizers such as lobster ravioli and shrimp fromage pave roads toward massive 24-ounce porterhouse steaks and fried lobster tails accompanied by delicate wines.
Men's men, ladies' men, men's ladies, ladies' ladies, and unusually mature children can all dine in style with today's Groupon. For $20, you get $50 worth of steaks, seafoods, and drinks at Mike Shannon's Steaks and Seafood near Busch Stadium. Your Groupon is good after 4 p.m. in the steakhouse only, so you can use it on either happy hour or dinner.

EXCLUSIVE: Tumblr Mascot Tommy Pom Reveals Online Crush
In an exclusive interview with The Fluffington Post, Tommy the Pomeranian ("Tommy Pom" to his friends) revealed that he has been using his employer's blogging platform to send private messages to Maddie the Coonhound, a fellow Tumblr super star. While the couple has never met IRL, they have been romantically linked online for nearly two months, and Mr. Pom confirmed that they are "exclusive."
"A few of us in the office suspected it," one Tumblr employee tells The FluffPo under condition of anonymity. "We always see Tommy looking at his Tumblr messages, then quickly switching to another window when someone walks by. He could probably be more discreet about it."
Mr. Pom has accumulated tens of thousands of adoring female followers who will no doubt be disappointed to hear of his online love affair. But he felt the time had come to be honest with his fans.

2013 Practical Approach to Electromyography and Neuromuscular Disorders
The 2013 Practical Approach to Electromyography and Neuromuscular Disorders conference was a huge success. To participate in the 2014 conference this September 19 – 21 at the Hilton Boston Back Bay Hotel, Boston, MA please visit this link!
View a PDF of the Printed Brochure!
Accreditation | Syllabus Videos Release Form | Syllabus
Target Audience
Neurologists, physiatrists, neurosurgeons, orthopedic surgeons, internists, peripheral nerve surgeons, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and electromyography technologists who are interested in the field of electromyography and neuromuscular disorders.
Course Director
Peter Siao, MD
Director, Neuromuscular Unit and
Electromyography Laboratory
Associate Professor of Neurology
Boston University School of Medicine
This two-and-a-half day course will focus on the practical approach to electromyography in the diagnosis and management of neuromuscular disorders. Lectures will cover the clinical and neurophysiologic assessments of compression neuropathies, radiculopathies, plexopathies, various types of generalized neuropathies, neuromuscular junction disorders, myopathies, as well as the fundamentals of nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography. There will be live demonstrations to illustrate nerve conduction techniques and muscle identification for needle electromyography. Emphasis will be placed on the latest treatment options for patients with various types of peripheral neuropathies.
Lecturers include six directors of Electromyography Laboratory/ Clinical Neurophysiology/ Neuromuscular Medicine/ Peripheral Neuropathy Center/ Neuromuscular fellowship training program from prestigious medical centers (Boston University, Columbia University, University of Connecticut, University of Massachusetts, University of California, Irvine, and New York University).
A special two-hour session on the clinical uses of botulinum toxin in the treatment of spasticity, cervical dystonia, and other movement disorders will be presented. Participants will receive an update on the assessment and treatment of patients with neuromuscular disorders so that they may enhance their clinical practices.
This course will help physicians understand the technical aspects of EMG, as well as the clinical uses and limitations of the procedure. The presentation of each topic will be both simple and practical. It will appeal to clinicians who order and read EMG reports and to those interested in performing EMG.
In post-activity evaluations of our 2012 conference, participants indicated a high level of satisfaction with the education activity (average satisfaction rating of 4.77 out of 5) and provided many positive comments, for example:
- "Very good choice of topics and excellent speakers"
- "I have attended several EMG courses lately in anticipation of starting to do EMGs after many years in practice. This is by far the best course."
- "Presenters were able to convey the material in such a way as to explain the underlying scientific principles [of] NCS/EMG. It made sense to me in a way that many of these principles had not before."
Educational Objectives
At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to:
- State the basic tenets of clinical and neurophysiologic diagnosis.
- List the clinical and neurophysiologic aspects of common neuromuscular disorders.
- Describe the technical aspects as well as potential pitfalls of nerve conduction studies and needle electromyography.
- Review the current diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in polyneuropathy, including the use of intravenous immunoglobulins and plasma exchange.
- Discuss the clinical uses of botulinum toxin.
- Apply the knowledge reviewed above to the discussion of selected clinical cases.
Boston University School of Medicine is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Boston University School of Medicine designates this Live activity for a maximum of 23.50 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.

Over the summer months, we'd like to share a few stories from startups around the world: what are they working on and how they are using the cloud to get things done. Today, we're profiling Classle, from Chennai, India!
I recently read Mark Suster's blog on Avoiding Monoculture - which is why I'm happy to share with you what I've learned about Classle, a startup from India, focused on solving education problems for areas of the world that experience serious resource constraints. Classle has the big goal of changing the world around them by encouraging students and experts to share knowledge and expertise, and using the AWS cloud to facilitate this exchange.
I reached out to Vaidya Nathan, Founder and CEO of Classle:
Classle is a Social Learning infrastructure company with specific focus on Education, Learning and Knowledge communities. Using the main Classle product, Cloud Campus platform, Classle creates and manages private and public social learning environments and offers services based on it.
Classle helps rural students access higher education and reach opportunities unavailable before. Our company partners with a wide network of colleges throughout India, which act as internet-connected "learning nodes" that distribute educational materials to students. When the student goes home for the day with their downloaded lectures and other materials from the library, Classle makes use of mobile technology and SMS-based quizzes to keep students engaged and actively learning. The entire system was designed to work with simple, $10 phones, not smartphones, and the students are entirely addicted to these quizzes - they can't get enough of them.
All these services are provided free of charge to both students and colleges. Classle monetizes by partnering with companies who are looking to hire top talent from among the students, and by selling their cloud-based learning platform for training purposes within companies.
We are using AWS since our inception in early 2009. Our first steps involved two small Amazon EC2 instances and Amazon EBS to store our database. Over the years, our use has expanded to match our business growth. Our selection criteria covered tactical as well as strategic points. From a tactical perspective, we wanted a quicker time for provisioning, which AWS on-demand instances enabled, and the option to secure our resource needs through Reserved Instances.
At a strategic level, we wanted to provide the best experience for our customers and it was key to build Classle on top of services, products, and infrastructure designed for growth and scale. To date, we have established relationships with over 30 educational organizations and that list is constantly growing. Thanks to AWS, we are effectively competing with some large and strong players in the e-learning space.
Sharing the AWS Lessons:
We are a small, LAMP stack team and we started using AWS in 2009. Currently, the products we are using are below. For reference, we are also happy to share our Classle architecture diagram, which is included in our case study with AWS.
- Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)
- Elastic Load Balancing (ELB)
- AutoscalingAmazon Elastic Bock Storage (EBS)
- Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3)
- Amazon Reduced Redundancy Storage (RRS)
- Amazon CloudFront with both streaming and download
- Amazon Cloud Watch
- Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS) with Multi-AZ and Read replication.
- Amazon SimpleDB
- Amazon Simple Notification Service (Amazon SNS)
- Amazon Route 53
Pretty soon, we would be using Amazon Elastic Map-Reduce clusters for our analytics requirements..
Words of Wisdom to Startups
Starting a company is always hard, whether you're from India or anywhere else. However, it's worth to keep in mind that it's never been easier to go out there and try things out - with Open Source for robust software and cloud service providers like AWS for infrastructure, you can test your ideas and run a business at very low cost.
Being from in India, where we don't have a strong start-up mentality like in the U.S., certainly poses some unique challenges. There are many more problems to solve, and it is exciting to try and translate the existing limitations into innovations, solutions and hence opportunities.
If I had to boil down my advice, I would say to my fellow entrepreneurs to: venture with confidence, design for scale, start small & architect for growth.
Enter Your Startup in the AWS Start-up Challenge!
This year's AWS Start-up Challenge is a worldwide competition with prizes at all levels, including up to $100,000 in cash, AWS credits, and more for the grand prize winner. Learn more and enter today!
You can also follow @AWSStartups on Twitter for updates.

Nice photo, Lyndee! Well done!
Thanks Gene.
Fantastic close up photo of those house finches .... super job Lyndee :-)))))
Tex, this is a blend of seeds which contains some thistle. However, I added extra thistle to it. They would probably prefer just thistle.Thanks Snooker, Patti, joy and Laura.
Great photo. Good job.
LJ, I don't have my finch feeder up. I took it down because I thought they were gone! Think I should hang it back up now? I have thistle. What's in this feeder, just birdseed or what? Thanks, Lyndee, nice picture.
Wow! Fabulous photo! Thank you Lyndee!
I love the marking on the wings. it almost looks like it's carved out of wood! Thanks, Lyndee. I love the pic.
Lyndee, also put up a thistle seed tube feeder. They will love you forever.
Thank you Rose. They are pretty little things.Robyn, I am still learning with my camera. Must confess, for every good shot, I probably take three bad ones! I'm learning though.
Wonderful. A pair of house finches. ; )
Your new camera was worth it lyndee - this is a wonderful shot!!!
Ha PG.....I'll give him that message.....NOT!
John is doing such wonderful work with his new camera lyndee I hope you are paying attention.
Thank you Faye, Suzy, Patricia, Sandy, Laura and Aggie. I'm glad you enjoyed them with me.I don't know Aggie if they will stay or if they're just passing through. I've seen them in past summers flying around but never had the finch feeder so I would never see them land anywhere. I hope they still stick around this time.
So sharp and so close. Great shot!
Super close up, Lyndee!
Good photo...Must get one of those bird feeders...
Yay! You got birds lyndee! And what a nice clear shot of them!
I am glad to see they arrived in the mail in one piece!
This is a great close up lyndee - now you can say, it was worth the wait.

Wow!!! excellent lite work. Seeing whats really goiing on requires some command of the visible-invisible light spectrum. Dont' forget the image become and stay compleat upsidedown inside out large snd small much like a fractal. There seems to be a trademark style to associate to the Mars ones. "geomentric shapes, patterns angles of view, millions of everybodys forming large view, sex, phallic symble is big with them 'no pun intended'
Bpeirce2 August 22, 2010 2:24:01 PM CEST
http://www.disclose.tv/action/viewphoto/20422/Complex_on_mars/?ref=Bpeirce2 you study this one picture and tell me with a straight face, it's pixels
Bpeirce2 August 22, 2010 2:22:35 PM CEST
Bpeirce2 August 22, 2010 2:10:49 PM CEST
Well, thats the trouble with high zoom....if you don't outline it,...people wont see it,....however,...the far away views are very reminescent of typical skyline structures found here on earth,...of course zooming in on the structures is another matter. But,...dozens of people how watch this see interesting geometric outlines with clear color differentiation. There are half dozen perfect spheres, there are perfect geometric cubes and rectangles in 3-d,...but if you don't look for them,..you will not see them.
Ilektral August 22, 2010 7:44:00 AM CEST
All i see is pixels...sorry...
Bpeirce2 August 21, 2010 10:38:00 PM CEST
Nope! There are examples of pixels along side of geometric shapes,...look again,...pixel reflect the same color as the objects they pixilate!
Mrduncan32 August 21, 2010 9:26:35 PM CEST
Your zooming in on pixals, not the real thing...

I thought you had already when you said thanks hun.
I have just p'ed myself of laughing at craftkeeper setting light to her finger..she does put me in stitches and we've had some laughs with her Tammy before you joined sex life the lot. xxxx
Your welcome dear.lol
Sorry your backs hurting still mate and yes that's why i'm banned from my dermo, ah it just a smashing life we live.lol
When you want to high light a message press on quote not reply and then you'll see advanced click on it and it will out line what they say but you need to scroll down abit to reply.
Tammy it was a relief getting out today, covered myself up being warm but left my hands uncovered a blister rash again ahhhhhhhhh.
Where you want everything took away i asked about it and they would'nt it was either the coil or the novasure, well straight away i said no coil i've been sterilized and i've heard stories about infection, so that's why i went for the op.
The sooner wednesday comes the better to know what it is and what's going to happen, christ we women do go through some suffering the only thing i missed was having a kid but that was a total no by the brain surgeon at 29yrs old and now at 42 and in this state glad it never happened after all. xxxxxxx
Hi Tammy,
That's how i was bleeding badly and losing clots besides periods it was hapening out the blue and it was'nt till they did the biopsy that they found the polyps inside the cervix but i needed to get it removed and have this operation because it was draining me out because of my aneamia. Fingers crossed for you because you such a lovely true friend and lovely person i'm hoping that's all it maybe with you.
I've been out of my scooter today with bruno and ste came on the bike and it was lovely to get some fresh air but loads of water was in hand and besides that tammy i'm feeling better below, odd jabbing pains but gone back to wearing pantyliner now, thank goodness.
Loads of love Terry xxxxxxxx
Honey I know how hard it is! One doctor will deal with one thing and not anything else. That is what kept me from getting a diagnosis for so long. I am really worried about you. If they couldn't find anything then I think they should have admitted you but I am not the one with the degrees. I am so sorry that they are treating you so badly. You are not crazy and I am here for you. Everyone seems to have an opinion on what we need to do but those people wouldn't last 5 min. living with what we do. You are doing a wonderful job of dealing with things. Don't doubt yourself. If it continues to get worse then go to the ER again! Make them listen to you.
Hi Honey,
Just stopping by to let you know that I am thinking of you. I hope you get to feeling better and, if not, get back to the ER because no one should have to suffer in pain like you are. Don't forget that I am here for you always.

so i just came across this on twitter and I don't know if it's already going around on here or if it's real or not but this isn't something to joke about either way. i looked for it and yahoo has removed the original post. spread around to save lives if this really is going to happen
Valentine's prompt 1: Shaun/Desmond
"Shaun and Desmond, first valentines day after AC3 (Desmond lives) gets ruined. Shaun planned awesome things."
The pan roasted duck had nearly caught fire, the candles were melted down three-quarters and two-thirds of the way (respectively), seven people were dead after the Templars had made their biggest grab for power yet, and Shaun Hastings, British supremacist extraordinaire, had burned his tea.
Look, they are amazing couple
Assassin's Creed 2 Video: The Shaun Hastings story
4:29 in length. Desmond's introduced to Shaun, and finds out what makes the historian tick.
Shaun: Ahhh. And well… what now?
Rebecca: Talk you idiot. Look at the light.
Shaun: Isn't that the battery? I think that's the battery. Hello? Hello? Ah! Sorry about this. My name is Shaun. And back there is, Rebecca, my… partner in crime.
Rebecca: Hello!
Shaun: Bloody good work earlier. Honestly, I mean it. Delivering us all that data it's really just too bad our man on the inside was such a… uh how how how to put it, fanatic. Fanatic is the best word, I suppose.
Rebecca: We take who we can get!
Shaun: Exactly. Exactly. Well put. We saw in John an opportunity to burrow deeper into Abstergo's cloud servers, and I am not ashamed to say, we took it… uh, not realizing of course that he was enlisting you to help him. And to blame, should anything go wrong. I suppose it all worked really nicely in the end. Most of it, anyway.
Rebecca: What Shaun really wants to say is… if you're up for more hacking, we are too. John gave you level 3 security clearance before he died. You should use it. The Assassins don't have the resources to pay you like the Templars do. But we'll make it worth your while.
Shaun: Ah, look, we should really cut it short, Bex. Twenty seconds.
Rebecca: Ah, right… Good luck!
Shaun: Cheers Mate. And top notch work, really top, give yourself a pat on the back. And… happy hacking.
Because I'm a complete wimp but a lover of history, if I ever did join the Assassins, I'd become an archivist like Shaun! I think it would be quite fun!

What's it Worth? Appraisal of Japanese Silk Screen/
William asks:
Attached are the photos of the Japanese Silk Screen we would like an appraisal on. It was purchased in 1980 in Kyoto, Japan and the last picture is of the artist who painted it there on site in the Japanese American store in Kyoto.
AW says: Hi William, thanks of your appraisal request. These types of silk screens are being collected more right now for their decorating value rather than as a collectible. That said, it's a nicely done contemporary Asian work.
Date range: 1980s $125 - $175 (Please note that this is retail in the USED range, it is not a replacement price. I would expect almost double this price as a BRAND NEW retail price)
Retail value:
This has obvious flood damage. You've indicated that there was some flood damage, but that you wanted an appraisal that would NOT reflect that damage.
(top price)
Wholesale value: $55 - $75
(The mid range price you could expect to achieve at a well advertised live auction. The price that is most often realized)
Quick sale value: $35-$45
The price your likely to get if you have to sell your item immediately and your prospective customer is aware of this.
Common terminology, nicknames, keywords: Contemporary Asian silk screen art work
Care and storage tips: Although it may seem obvious, you want to be careful of these screens if there are cats in the home. I have seen some of them used as scratch posts.

CP+: Tokina will be showing 70-200mm f4 SLR lens and 300mm mirror (M43rds)
Tokina will be showing a 70-200mm f4 FX stabilized SLR lens at the Japanese CP+ trade show in Japan writes Megapixel.co.il. This is not a rumor, it has been posted at the Japanese Tokina website (computer translated) that also mentions that Tokina will be showing a 300mm mirror lens for M43rds (computer-translated).
It will be interesting to see whether we will get product announcements at CP+ or these are development projects. If there is no price and availability mentioned, it is often a sign of a development project (unless it is Sigma, in which case there are seven levels of announcement before you get to an actual product *meow*).
The CP+ trade show takes place in Japan between February 9-12, 2012 (see trade show calendar).
PS: there is only one letter that separates "mirrorless" from "mirror lens". Then there's mirror lens for mirrorless. Hello new possibilities for typos :)

• $12
• One Thumb Up
• Inviting aromas of dry cherry, cinnamon, clove, roses and a touch of white pepper. It has bright citrusy acidity with a deft touch of cantaloupe and spicy nutmeg.
Anyone who has even been mildly interested in my 11-year wine writing career knows I dig pink wines. Not the sweetish white-zin types (not that there is anything wrong with them), but the zesty, fragrant, tart, refreshing, spicy, food-friendly and, most importantly, dry pink wines, otherwise known as rosés, rosatos or rosados, depending on the country of origin.
Over this period, I have either recommended or mentioned Domaine Nizas, located in the South of France, at least six times…make that seven now. My earliest record dates back to 2003. Why? Because I love it! The current vintage is no exception.
My colleague and long-suffering reader, Karin Carman, recently reminded me the other day that I had yet to write about pink wines this year. "Vat are you waiting for?" she asked in her wonderful German accent. "Christmas, perhaps?"
Ach du Lieber! Uber haupt nicht. (My goodness! Of course not.) Dry pinks are the poster wines for summer, but I needed an angle. As I perused my wine store's stash of dry pink wines, I notice that the prices of Domaine Nizas (and a couple of the others I rather enjoy such as Château d'Esclans' Whispering Angel and Domaines Ott's Cour de Grain ) have gotten a little extreme, in excess of $20.
That struck me as wrong. At its heart, a dry pink wine should be simple, carefree and inexpensive. As I looked down the long line of pink bottles, I also noticed that darn near all of them have corks. With the prevalence and general world-wide acceptance of screwtops, a dry pink wine without a screwtop violates the simplicity guideline mentioned earlier in this paragraph.
So, get yourself an inexpensive dry pink wine with a twist-off top and pour yourself a generous portion before you read next week's column. As Karin knows, my columns are much more interesting when accompanied by a large glass of wine.

The list of reasons that I could rattle off as to why I'm lucky to be engaged to my fiancée is long, and might nauseate a few of you. However, none seems to sicken my friends more than the fact that she has Masters badges in her family, and that I usually get the opportunity to attend. This happened to be one of those years, and I headed down to Augusta this past Sunday.
Whenever a trip to The Masters comes my way, I'm usually beside myself for the days leading up to it. Of course, I'm excited about the golf, and Augusta National is a far more beautiful place in person than even the highest of high-def televisions could hope to do justice. But the thing that I spent the most time thinking about or talking about is how many sandwiches I'm going to take down.
The Masters is an event steeped in tradition, from the Par 3 contest to the iconic Green Jacket. But the tradition that I enjoy the most – not surprisingly – is the food. If you have ever talked to someone that has been, there are always two things you hear about: How cheap the food/beer is, and how incredibly good the pimento cheese sandwiches are.
Though there are eight different sandwiches offered, all ranging from $1.50-$2.50, the pimento cheese gets all the love. In fact, if you Google the phrase "Masters sandwiches", you have to scroll past the first four or five pages of results to read about anything OTHER than the pimento cheese ($1.50). And while I do enjoy one or two during my trips, my heart belongs to another. The mistress that I can't seem to turn away is the oh-so-delicious egg salad sandwich ($1.50).
Oddly enough, I don't usually eat egg salad, but I just help myself when I'm in Augusta. I think that the "food as crack" analogy is a bit overplayed, but I have to call a spade a spade: These things are like CRACK!
The beauty is in their simplicity: two pieces of white bread cradling a mixture of chopped boiled eggs, mayonnaise (or possibly miracle whip, I can't tell), some diced sweet pickles, mustard, salt, and spices. I've been trying to replicate the recipe at home for the last few days so that I could share it with you, but nothing that I whipped up came close.
I think that before my day was over, I'd split time between watching Rory McIlroy's epic meltdown and consuming roughly six egg salad sandwiches, and picking up three to take home. Of all of the sporting events that I attend, this is by far my favorite food tradition. And yes, that includes a hot dog at a baseball game.
What about you? If you've been to The Masters, which sandwich camp are you in? If not the Masters, do you have a ballpark/stadium food that eclipses the sporting event itself? Or do I just need to get my priorities straight?

Pimento. All the way. In fact, we didnt have tickets this year (we join the lotto, you lucky btard), but dad got a badge for Friday. So, Sunday I made Pimento cheese, and we had adult Arnie Palmers (Sweet Tea vodka and lemonade, also sometimes calleda John Daly). Masters sammies FTW.

Egg salad has been my favorite. I'm not sure how well it would travel in the heat. A friend of mine is the Augusta National member assigned to concessions. It is amazing that they don't gouge the patrons with high prices. I have been going since I was a kid and it was a thrill to take my son and daughter this year. Nothing like it.
April 14th, 2011
3:00 pm
I'm with you, Jon. I simply adore the egg salad sandwiches! I really like the pimento cheese sandwich as well, but if I had to choose one, I'd pick egg salad every time.

The ham and cheese is pretty good too – but nothing like the pimento cheese. Most remarkably is that my wife and I attended, ate all we wanted – although the anticipated drive back to Atlanta limited us on the beer – and spent less than $20.

I have never attended the Masters. However last year on Masters weekend My dad attended Thursday or Friday (I cant remember). I was the best man in a close family friends wedding that Saturday and I had my dad who was also attending the wedding bring me an egg salad sandwich. I at that at the reception and it was better than anything being served there. I will always remember that day (because of the egg salad).

Are you crazy? Pimento Cheese all the way. Went Saturday this year & had three (plus a bunch of beers for about $20 total). Everyone always jokes that the Master's doesn't want our "hard-earned" money, but they have a great strategy in that they sell the food for cheap so that you'll spend a bunch of money in the store on all the logo'd items they have (the Master's logo can only be sold at the shop there in Augusta, but the items will travel away from there all over the world to spread the allure).
April 14th, 2011
5:00 pm
Oh yeah, forgot to mention that one reason the pimento cheese is so great is that they serve it at room temperature! Yes, I know all about the mayo on a hot spring day, but like deviled eggs, true southern pimento cheese has to be room temperature. John – I bet you that's a key reason why you like the egg salad so much (since it's also served at room temperature like a deviled egg should be!)

I like them all. If I feel I need to be healthy, I get the tuna on wheat. If I feel I need something unhealthy, I get the hot barbecue pork sandwitch. What I like most about the Masters food tradition, though, is the BEER. Especially on Sunday.
April 14th, 2011

Good story, Jon.
David (or Jon): Who has the sandwich concession, Augusta National's own restaurant or a local restaurant? I guess my real Q is: are these babies available in Augusta during other times of the year or are they made by special sandwich elves who only come out during Masters Week?

Oh for a Master's egg salad sandwich! I grew up in Augusta and attended almost annually an could eat my weight in those little green packets of goodness. In the many years since I've left, I've traveled a good bit and always sought out the "best" egg salad in town, only to be disappointed. Its been a while since I've been back, but I always ask friends to pick me up a few to bring home.
@Soupy – no, they aren't available in Augusta the rest of the year. They are made by special gnomes the National keeps on staff year round. They are also responsible for making sure there are seemingly no bugs at all inside the bounds of the course (with the exception of the occasional bumble bee here and there).

Wow…six egg salad sandwiches! I hope the bathroom was close.
April 15th, 2011
1:52 pm
The Masters is by far the best sporting event to attend. I live in Augusta. I have never paid to get in and I have been the past 5 years. The beer is $3.00 for about 16 oz and the Sandwichs are $1.50 to $2.50. You just can't beat that.
They made good and bad changes this year. They sold beer until 5pm instead of closing down in the past at 4pm.
While the food was still good, it is my opinion that they should have kept going through Chris Cunningham to make the sandwichs.
Rumor has it the new guy called Mr. Cunningham this year when he had a problem perfecting the pimento cheese. New guy asked him how many pimentos do you put in there? Mr. Cunningham said go get a 10 lb. jar of pimentos, bend over and I'll show ya!

Miracle Whip is banned in Augusta a month prior to the Masters. Trust me the "Lords of the Masters" have never heard of Miracle Whip. That would be like saying the leaders are on" the back nine" instead of" the second nine", its just not done.

Great blog. My favorite though is to get the ham and cheese AND the pimento cheese and put them together. Quite gluttonous, but for $3, still a heck of a deal.

about me
I was scared of dentists and the dark I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations
I enjoy most things which happen outdoors with a huge interest in all things relating to the beach and surf. I am a partner in a boutique financial firm but also believe that work/life balance is important so I am unwinding my corporate commitments for the foreseeable future to pursue a more balanced and rewarding lifestyle. I plan to spend more time travelling and dealing with some items on the bucket list. I am financially independent and have a good work ethic. I love socialising and meeting new people. I enjoy trying new things and will give most things a try. Exploring new places on the weekend and trying to find that next good restaurant is always fun.
The last 18 months I have been focused on completing an MBA which I am honestly glad to say is all but complete and I am know contemplating doing a PHD as I believe continual improvement is good for the body and soul. Hopefully nourishing the mind will prove to be a wise investment.
Have just started crossfit and I am really enjoying it. It is a bit addictive in a good way.
Recently did a workshop on corporate social responsibility, social entrepreneurship and the not for profit sector which opened my eyes and got me thinking.
If you want to know anything more you know what to do.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - A Utah couple are suing an online retailer over
a $3,500 charge the company assessed after one of them wrote a negative
review concerning its customer service.
John and Jennifer Palmer of Layton filed the
lawsuit Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Salt Lake City against
KlearGear.com based in Grandville, Mich.
According to the complaint, the couple's problems
began when John Palmer's order of less than $20 for a desk toy and a key
chain for his wife in December 2008 never arrived.
The couple says the order was canceled after they
were unsuccessful in attempts to reach KlearGear, and Jennifer Palmer
then posted a negative review about the company on RipoffReport.com.
The suit says KlearGear informed the Palmers in
2012 they had 72 hours to remove the negative review or pay $3,500
because the couple violated a "non-disparagement clause" in its terms of
use with customers.
The couple says Ripoff.com has a policy of not
removing posted reviews, and KlearGear hurt their credit rating by
reporting their failure to pay the $3,500 to credit bureaus.
Their attorney, Scott Michelman of Public Citizen, says the case is about protecting consumers' rights to free speech.
The company didn't immediately respond to an email request for comment Sunday.
