Up-and-down financial results at public companies with plastics businesses are featured in this weeks Material Insights video. Huntsman and Ferro each saw plastic-related sales and profit gains in the first half of 2012. Kraton saw higher sales but lower profits. Dow, DuPont, Eastman and Celanese saw plastic-related declines in both of those areas, due in part to a slow global economic recovery and challenging feedstock conditions. A private equity investment into plastics technology firm Polyflow also is featured in this weeks video. Ambassador Enterprises of Fort Wayne, Ind., has invested almost $2 million into Polyflow, which is based in Akron, Ohio. The investment will allow Polyflow to build its first commercial plastic waste-to-fuel plant in Perry, Ohio. The video wraps up with news of a new compounding plant for Toray Plastics in China and of a state grant for U.S. biocomposites developer MCG BioComposites. Toray will spend almost $13 million to build a 24 million-pound-capacity plant in Chengdu, China. MCG will use a grant of more than $40,000 from the state of Iowa to develop its BioMarker-brand plant marker and to develop new formulations for biocomposite materials.

Tweet (5:30 a.m. EDT) -- A slightly weakened yet still potent Hurricane Earl continues its pursuit of U.S. East Coast, where it is expected to bring heavy winds and rain, and trigger huge waves and dangerous rip currents in time for Labor Day weekend travel. In anticipation of the storm's U.S. arrival, a number of cruise lines have altered itineraries for ships on Canada and New England cruises, and vessels based in northeast U.S. homeports like Baltimore, Boston and New York.
Earl passed near North Carolina's Outer Banks late last night and MSNBC reported that hundreds lost power when the storm's gusts and rain churned over the coast.
The center of Category Two Hurricane Earl, however, is still expected to stay offshore as the cyclone twists up the East Coast, but forecasters say that even a small change in course could result in the storm coming ashore.
According to the National Hurricane Center (NHC), it should approach southeastern New England Friday evening. Reuters is reporting that the head of the NHC said on Wednesday that he was "highly confident Hurricane Earl would veer to the northeast starting late on Thursday, which should keep the worst of the storm from the U.S." Even so, the governors of North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland and Massachusetts declared states of emergency, and cities and towns along the coast are bracing for impact.
According to the NHC's 5 a. m. advisory, Earl, the Atlantic season's fifth named storm, continues to weaken, and it is now packing maximum sustained winds at 105 miles per hour, down from a peak of 145 m.p.h. reported on Thursday. It is expected to further weaken today. Earl is moving toward the north at a 18 m.p.h. clip, and is currently located 85 miles east of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, and 465 miles south-southwest of Nantucket, Massachusetts. A turn to the north-northeast is expected on Friday.
Storm warnings and watches are currently in place along the East Coast from North Carolina to New Brunswick, Canada, a swath that includes Martha's Vineyard, Boston, Long Island and the Jersey Shore. (For specific information on watches and warnings, please visit the NHC's Web site.)
Cruise Ship Itinerary Changes, Impacted Ports
Updated: Hurricane Earl Changes: Canada & New England Cruises, Northeast Homeports
Updated: Damage Report: Caribbean Ports in the Aftermath of Hurricane Earl
Hurricane Earl Changes: Caribbean Cruises
Weather Outlook: Next Affected Ships & Ports
The latest NHC projections have Hurricane Earl brushing the East Coast of the United States and Canada on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The first tendrils of the storm have already reached North Carolina, and Earl is then expected to pick up speed and move roughly parallel to the coast on Friday and Saturday.
A number of cruise lines have already made itinerary changes ahead of Earl, but we'll keep you posted should there be additional deviations.

It's make-or-break time for the first-quarter earnings season, and it comes just as the stock market is showing signs of strain.
Earnings season is shifting into high gear in the final week of January, with six Dow Jones components, and more than a fifth of the S&P 500 companies reporting.
TheStreet.com details brief earnings previews for five major property and casualty insurers.
For now, insurance companies will continue to increase their cash reserves and invest some of that money into stock buybacks, dividend increases and acquisitions. That will keep it one of the most sought-after sectors by investors. TheStreet.com reports.
Companies such as environmental cleanup specialist Clean Harbors Inc, building supply chains Home Depot Inc and Lowe's Cos Inc, building products makers Owens Corning and Beacon Roofing Supply Inc, and generator manufacturer Generac Holdings Inc surged in early trading on the assumption that the recovery from Sandy will take years and boost sales.
NEW YORK, Oct 31- The first piece of post-storm advice after a major weather event like Sandy is always to call your insurance company. But what if your phone isn't working or you don't have Internet service? State Farm says as of Tuesday evening, it had logged 6,000 homeowners policy claims, and 900 car claims.

LONDON, Oct 30- Investors who have put their money into specialist financial bonds which cover insurance companies from huge natural disasters are unlikely to be hit with big losses from monster storm Sandy even though it is one of the biggest ever to hit the United States.
Travelers is the third-largest insurer in New York for both personal home and auto and commercial lines of insurance, and the second-largest in Connecticut. Weather is unlikely to interfere with claims processing, a spokesman said, even though the company is headquartered in New Jersey, Chubb has a major center in Arizona that can handle claims as needed.
NEW YORK, Oct 27- Hurricane Sandy is charging up the East Coast as a cold front is tearing across the U.S. from the west and an arctic blast is barreling down from the north. Valerie Dziengiel isn't worried one bit.
WARREN, N.J.-- Property and casualty insurer Chubb's third-quarter net income more than doubled, benefiting from fewer losses from catastrophes, rate increases and a strong underwriting performance. Chubb reported $17 million in catastrophe losses during the quarter.
BOSTON-- Shares of property insurers fell more sharply than the broader market on Friday as investors weighed the potential for heavy damages from Hurricane Sandy, which was heading north from Haiti and Cuba toward the East Coast.

That being said, let's get to the obvious elephant in the room. This game comes just half a year after the original Marvel vs Capcom 3. Those who bought the original game (or, heaven forbid, the collector's edition) are now in possession of a useless copy less than a year after buying it. This is the latest in a long line of problematic business decisions by Capcom, who have by-and-large really dialed it in in regards to their game releases; recent games have been carbon copies and blatant cash grabs in an attempt to make as much money as fast as possible.Read more ›
- Much like it's predecessors the characters require much time and discipline to understand and master so if you have the patience & time then this game is for you. The gameplay is very fast paced, and requires much knowledge of being able to read your opponents and being able to respond to what they may throw at you....Whether it is spamming from a far with lances (Arthur from Ghouls n' Goblins), or people comboing the living daylights out of you in a corner.
- There are 3 modes included with UMVC3:
*Offline Mode: Here have you your basic Arcade, Training, Versus, and Mission mode (mission mode containing a staggering 480 combos to learn and do) at the final stage of arcade you have much to look forward to in battling Galactus and his Heralds (minions). *sidenote* there are 6 stages before the Galactus battle.
*Xbox Live: Here is where your skills will be put to the test where you can look for player matches or ranked matches, much time will be invested in training before you can plan on competing in this mode not to discourage anyone from buying this game.
*Heroes & Heralds Mode: In this mode you have 3 decks (A,B,C) each deck contains 3 slots for a card, each card has a perk that will aid you in battle where you can pick a main card for extra effects, as the name implies you pick either the heroes or heralds where you can save the earth, or takeover the earth. Each side has particular cards exclusive to each side.Read more ›
If you are not familiar with Capcom fighting games, you may be a bit surprised, at first, as to how fast-paced this game is. It is possibly the fastest-paced game I have ever played. Each character has their own signature moves and combos that must be executed perfectly and at just the right time to maximize their effectiveness. Due to the high amount of skill needed to pull off these moves, some players may find it frustrating at first. They will most DEFINITELY find it frustrating if they jump into the fray against a skilled opponent. Seeing an opponent give your character a smack-down with a 50+ hit combo that nearly vanquishes them in one assault will be more than a little intimidating and humbling. This is a game that really takes some invested time to master, and Capcom HAS included the option to play a "Simple" mode, that will allow most players to pull off some devastating moves without fully learning the controls and the nuances of the game. Once players get the hang of the game play and learn the strengths and weaknesses of each character, the game becomes much more fun to play. This is a game where there can be tremendous swings in advantage within mere moments. At one moment it could like like you're getting blown out and the next moment you could be on top. This adds to the fun of the game for me. I don't like games that are too easy or require no skill to play.Read more ›

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Scientists from the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have decoded the proteome of 59 tumor cell lines and say that they have found new ways to explain why cancer drugs do not have the same effect on all patients suffering from the disease. The researchers based their work on the premise that it is proteins, and not mutations in DNA per se, that are ultimately responsible for changing somatic cells into cancerous ones.
The team identified over 10,000 different proteins in cancer cells. "Nearly all anti-tumor drugs are targeted against cellular proteins," says Bernhard Küster, Ph.D., TUM chair of proteomics and bioanalytics. "Identifying the protein portfolio of tumor cells increases our chances of finding new targets for drugs."
The researchers used NCI-60 tumor cell lines which came from the U.S. National Cancer Institute. The NCI-60 cell lines represent the most common tumor diseases in nine tissues (such as brain, breast, bowel, skin, and blood tissue). More than 5,000 of the 10,000 proteins identified are present in varying abundances in tumor cell lines of all types of tissue. "We can assume that this is the core proteome of cancer," notes Dr. Küster. However, the researchers also found some clearly distinguishable protein profiles between the tumor cells of different tissues.
Three-hundred-seventy-five of the 10,000 proteins belong to the kinase group. "The kinases play a part in the continuous reproduction process of tumor cells," adds Dr. Küster. "The wide variety of kinases shows how different these mechanisms are in human cancers. This is an important discovery for personalized medicine."
The TUM group also showed that the protein pattern of the cells determines the effectiveness of cancer drugs. "We investigated how the cell lines react to 108 different cancer drugs and found that there are indeed proteins that indicate whether a cell will respond to certain therapeutic agents, or whether it will be resistant to the drug," explains Hannes Hahne, Ph.D. a TUM expert in mass spectrometry techniques.

'Bad Moms' movie is a shoddy mess that rings hollow
There's a scene halfway through "Bad Moms," wherein a PTA meeting full of suburban moms turns into a full-on frat house-style rager. Moms in sweater sets, khakis and sensible sneakers chug liquor straight from the bottle, make out, huff whippets, crash tricycles and urinate on lawns, all in glorious slow motion, hair and spittle flying to a pulsing pop beat. It's featured heavily in the trailer for the film, and is the best scene in the movie. Bad mothers? Shut your mouth.

The Arizona Legislature has moved one step closer to thwarting a "sinister and dark" plot aimed at destroying our country and indeed changing our very way of life.
Leading the charge is the ever-vigilant Sen. Judy Burges, tin-foil hat aficionado and battler extraordinaire against all manner of grand conspiracies.
The Senate this afternoon gave preliminary approval to Burges' Senate Bill 1403, a proposal that appears to undo decades of environmental protections, limit citizen access to information about hazardous materials and in general make the entire state of Arizona look like Kooksville (or so the UN conspiractors would have you believe).
For several years now Burges has been trying to get the Legislature to foil the United Nations' dastardly plot to seize our country and create a one-world order.
I'll let her explain, as she did recently during a meeting of the Senate Government and Environment Committee.
"I appear before you to address a United Nations program that is designed to change our way of life, our heritage and our liberties as outlined and protected by our most precious Constitution. I testify to you against the seductive evils contained in the United Nations' agenda for the 21st Century and more easily stated, Agenda 21."
Burges' bill, simply put, would bar state or local government from abiding by any of the principles set forth in the United Nations Rio Declaration on Environment and Development.
Agenda 21, as it's called, is a non binding agreement approved in 1992 during a UN conference in Rio de Janeiro. Basically, it's a list of principles detailing how communities can better conserve natural resources — one approved by none other than George W. Bush (a noted global conspiracist).
But if you're Burges, it's a plot to destroy America.
Again, here's Burges: "The truth contained within this United Nations program depicts something sinister and dark. The plan calls for government to take control of all land use and not leave any decisions in the hands of private property owners. It is assumed by the backers of Agenda 21 that people are not good stewards of the land and the government will do a better job if it's in control. Individual rights are to be given away to the global community as determined by a global governing body, not by local elected representatives … and folks, not even your state Legislature. Furthermore, the contents of the United Nations program reveal that people should be rounded up off their own land and relocated to human settlements close to employment centers and transportation hubs."
Among the principles endorsed by Agenda 21 — which this bill, in turn, would outlaw in Arizona:
-That states "shall enact effective environmental legislation."
-That states have "the sovereign right to exploit their own resources."
-That states must "immediately notify other states of any natural disaster or emergencies that are likely to produce sudden harmful efforts on the environment in those states."
-That "environmental issues are best handled with the participation of all concerned citizens", that individuals shall have access to "information on hazardous materials and activities in their communities," and that "effective access to judicial and administrative proceedings, including redress and remedy, shall be provided."
Genius. All those things soon will be illegal in Arizona, despite interference from a couple of Senate Democrats (rogue UN agents?) who pointed out on Wednesday that basically Burges' bill is a testament to crackpottery.
Fortunately, the Republicans paid them no mind — as usual — and approved Burges' bill on a voice vote, leaving just a final roll call to go before the deed is done.
Will tomorrow be the day that Senate Republicans don their capes and send the bill over to the House as they seek to save America?

Product Reviews
Worked fine with regular cardstock
The big piece broke up badly with a shiny embossed cardstock I tried it on, but was fine on regular cardstock. Lightweight paper might be a problem, haven't tried it. I use said big piece as half the front of a 4 1/4 x 5 /12 card over solid paper. Do the other half in print and your front is taken care of. Really a pretty piece!
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? Just like it.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Don't remember, but I'd already seen my friends.
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. It's fine, Spellbinders is always consistent.

Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Loss of Lives in Clinical Trials...
Capitol Hill Critics Second-Guess Agencies Using...
Newron Pharmaceuticals raised CHF 7.9 million ($7.75 million) through a private placement with institutional investors. The CHF 18.00 per share price represented a 3.23% discount to the closing price of the company's shares yesterday. The new shares represented just over 7% of Newron's total share capital before the issue, and 6.71% of the total share capital after the capital increase.
Newron said it will use the funds to fund its pipeline development and clinical trials. "While safinamide is progressing into completion of final studies to allow for regulatory filing, ralfinamide is undergoing a potentially pivotal trial as a first-in class treatment for a blockbuster indication and is, as yet, unpartnered," commented Luca Benatti, Newron CEO. "We intent to develop our pipeline with advancing preclinical and earlier clinical candidates."
Newron's lead candidate, safinamide, is an orally administered, alpha-aminoamide derivative in development as an adjunctive therapy for Parkinson's disease. The drug is being partnered with Merck Serono, under a 2006 agreement giving the latter exclusive worldwide rights to develop, manufacture, and commercialize safinamide in Parkinson disease, Alzheimer disease, and other therapeutic applications.
In June the companies reported results from the first Phase III safinamide trial. The data confirmed that adding safinamide to other Parkinson disease therapies, including levodopa, significantly increased patients' total "On" time without increasing dyskinesia. Two additional Phase III trials in Parkinson disease patients are also in progress.
Ralfinamide is pain relief drug candidate believed to mediate its potent analgesic effect through the inhibition of sodium channels, including Nav 1.7, as well as N-type calcium channels and NMDA receptor. Earlier this year Newron intiated a Phase IIb/III trial evaluating ralfinamide in patients with neuropathic lower back pain.
In October the company returned the rights to a Phase I-stage low molecular weight heparin compound, HF0420, to its inventors. The compound originally came to Newron as part of the company's acquisition of Hunter-Fleming in 2008. With potential applications in certain CNS diseases, HF0420 had been licensed to Hunter-Fleming by its inventor at Loyola University Medical Center, Chicago. Under the new agreement the Loyola University researchers will continue development of the drug, and pay Newron milestones and royalties on successful development and commercialization of the compound in any indication.
Newron also acquired a more advanced compound, HF0220, through the Hunter-Fleming buyout last year. HF0220 is a potential first-in-class disease-modifying agent that has already shown good safety and tolerability in a Phase II trial in Alzheimer's disease patients.

Biological systems seem to have a simpler but more robust locomotion strategy than that of the existing biped walking controllers for humanoid robots. We show that a humanoid robot can step and walk using simple sinusoidal desired joint trajectories with their phase adjusted by a coupled oscillator model. We use the center-of-pressure location and velocity to detect the phase of the lateral robot dynamics. This phase information is used to modulate the desired joint trajectories. We do not explicitly use dynamical parameters of the humanoid robot. We hypothesize that a similar mechanism may exist in biological systems. We applied the proposed biologically inspired control strategy to our newly developed human-sized humanoid robot computational brain (CB) and a small size humanoid robot, enabling them to generate successful stepping and walking patterns.

Short summary: If the license says something that is enforceable in court, odds are super good that you can't get it removed with anything short of an activist campaign. [
... ] If the license says something that is not enforceable in court, why should you care at the outset?
And just how the fsck am I supposed to know which is which? Is litigation of every $(GOD)-damned term necessary to determine validity? And why is the onus on me to prove the term is bullshit? It seems to me that a "contract" that purports to absolve the vendor of any and all responsibility for defects in their product, and then further forces the consumer to give up their right to file suit in a state or Federal court, or be a member of a class action, and instead be compelled into neutral (ha ha) arbitration, would be unenforceable. But, lo and behold, they've been deemed valid. And all this comes into existence by merely clicking an on-screen button.
In other words, a vendor can impose an onerous, heavy-handed, one-sided contract on someone via little more than merest assertion.
...And you, as a professional working in this space, haven't got the slightest problem with this?
...about a hundred years ago when people switched from pocket watches to wrist watches, [
... ]
That reminds me: Why is no one offering a smart watch in a pocket watch form factor? You'd lose pulse rate measurement, but you'd still get the rest of the fitness tracking movements. You'd also get a larger case -- allowing for larger displays and batteries -- and placing a pocket watch on a charging cradle at night wouldn't seem quite as odd as a wristwatch.
Using a smart pocket watch would also obviate the described attack.
The Real Piracy is the wholesale stealing of our government by the rich, powerful elites [
... ]
Stealing? How dare you impugn our character with such malign slander. We bought and paid for them!
DI.fm is still the first thing I think of for streaming music, since it's been around for nearly 20 years.
However, you must admit the service has become much more hostile lately. Once upon a time, Ari had a Web page with a handful of URLs. Copy-paste them in to your streaming app -- any streaming app, not just DI's proprietary one -- and start enjoying music. Then they started demanding you create an account if you wanted to use their proprietary Android app. Then the streaming URLs started getting rotated for no reason; you had to go back to the Web site to get the latest ones. Then the streaming URLs disappeared off their page entirely, replaced with a ( crap ) in-browser Flash-based player -- you had to practically Wireshark the site to get the streaming URLs out so you could listen with your preferred player.
Now, they've broken the open streaming URLs entirely, and have imposed a limit of 30 minutes listening time for non-registered listeners. And they still spray ads at you.
It was much more fun when Ari was running the whole thing himself. Every so often in the early days, the playlist would stop (!?), and cut over to an open mic -- you could hear Ari working on something in the background. One time, I sent him an email telling him the stream had died. A few seconds later, I heard the Outlook Bell, then a few keystrokes, a couple of mouse clicks, and the stream started up again.
My armchair analysis is rather more cynical.
Microsoft is trying to position itself at the chokepoints of primary office/corporate functions. They already own the document preparation space in the form of Office, and have a huge chunk of the messaging and calendaring space through Outlook/Exchange.
Despite the fact that GMail is vastly superior to Outlook365 -- hell, mutt is better than Outlook -- there's always some so-and-so in the C-suite who's familiar with Outlook and refuses to learn or use anything else. Eventually the impedance mismatch between Outlook/Exchange and the rest of the entire fscking universe forces the company to adopt Office/Outlook/Exchange.
By acquiring LinkedIn, Microsoft can now attempt domination of the HR/recruiting functions as well. Want to apply for a job? Sorry, you'll have to apply through LinkedIn; it's inextricably integrated with the rest of our software. Want to communicate with a candidate? IMAP clients don't preserve the metadata tracking the recruiting process; please use an Outlook client. Want to submit a resume? It better be in
Personally, I can't see how people keep falling for the same sack of crap over and over and over again.
...you can boot/install windows in legacy bios mode which doesn't require those fancy keys.
Not with a GUID partition table (GPT), you can't; legacy BIOS only understands MBR. And GPT is the default partition table format you get when installing Win7 and 8.
"Damn! You need to watch what you agree to, 'cause that one almost took my head off!"
The MS lawyers would have tried to stop this. This will absolutely lead to a class action lawsuit [
... ]
Uh, no. Microsoft's lawyers already have this base covered:
10. Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver if You Live in (or if a Business Your Principal Place of Business is in) the United States.
We hope we never have a dispute, but if we do, you and we agree to try for 60 days to resolve it informally. If we can't, you and we agree to binding individual arbitration before the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), and not to sue in court in front of a judge or jury. Instead, a neutral arbitrator will decide and the arbitrator's decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. Class action lawsuits, class-wide arbitrations, private attorney-general actions, and any other proceeding where someone acts in a representative capacity aren't allowed. Nor is combining individual proceedings without the consent of all parties. "We," "our," and "us" includes Microsoft, the device manufacturer, and software installer. [emphasis in original]
Even if they can't directly modify the DB/DBX directly from Windows, they could easily drop a new executable in the UEFI boot sequence -- authenticated by their Secure Boot cert -- which would do it for them.
So, yes, based on those readings, I regard this as technically feasible.
Bottom line is it's time to start the class-action lawsuit.
You can't. You "agreed" not to in the EULA, which forces you in to individual neutral arbitration. The Supreme Court upheld this practice as lawful.
But do please tell me again how EULAs/shrinkwrap licenses are fair, equitable, and necessary...
My friends: So convinced am I of Microsoft's perfidy that, some time in the next 6-24 months, Microsoft will attempt to revoke the Secure Boot keys for Windows 7 and 8, and every machine with a UEFI BIOS still running 7 and 8 will refuse to boot. The government will do nothing. The industry press, though publicly wringing its hands in consternation, will do nothing. The only proffered "fix" will be a Windows 10 install.
"Can you prove it won't happen?"
Sorry, I'm not taking any article that says this seriously:
The video-gaming business was a bastion of old-fashioned sexism long before Gjoni came along. [
... ]
Um, sorry, but I was there, and yes it was. It wasn't rampagingly misogynistic, but it was definitely a male-dominated industry, market, and culture. The number of well-known female game designers could be counted on your fingers. And while there's no intrinsic reason why a woman can't enjoy a game about blasting the crap out of aliens/demons/terrorists, as a group, that's not a genre they have tended to gravitate toward.
Not to mention that the article only focuses on Gjoni and Quinn's relationship and doesn't really go into GamerGate at all.
Why would it? Gjoni made up the whole thing as part of a vicious character assassination. Yes, there's quid-pro-quo corruption in games journalism, but that happens at the managerial level, as Jeff Gerstmann will readily attest, long before Gjoni oozed on to the scene.
Yeah, guy was pissed his girlfriend was fucking around, [
... ]
So you're just taking Gjoni's word for it? A man with several court-imposed restraining orders against him for willfully spreading falsehoods against Quinn?
The reason why it ended up being a big thing is because of the exposed corruption in gaming journalism, [
... ]
The statistics conclude otherwise. Sorry, but that fig leaf of plausible deniability dried up and crumbled to dust ages ago: http://www.dailydot.com/opinio...
