Hi there. I just downloaded rps-image-gallery. I created a gallery on a single page, and it worked with no problems. When I go to that page, I can click on any thumbnail, and the slideshow will pop up, with all the correct images attached to it.
However, what I really need to do, is link from a thumbnail on a different product page, directly to that pop-up viewer that contains the slideshow.
I have a client that wants several thumbnails of different types of awards he creates, all on one page. If you click on the thumbnails, a slideshow pops up, that displays 4-5 images of that award, from different angles.
I don't mind creating a new page for each gallery/slideshow, but I still want to be able to link directly to it from the other thumbnail.

Elderly patients were less likely to experience adverse events and had shorter hospital stays if they were treated in an interdisciplinary, team-based, patient-centered model of acute care, according to a study.
William W. Hung, MD, MPH, of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York City, and colleagues examined the use of the Mobile Acute Care of the Elderly service compared with general medical service.
MACE teams consist of a geriatrics attending physician, a geriatrics fellow, geriatrics nurse coordinator and social worker. Mount Sinais website says the program aims "to help patients avoid the hazards of hospitalization that typically result from being bed-bound and physically isolated." The team works to ensure safe, seamless continuity of care from hospital to home, with the goal of discharging patients to their previous living arrangements whenever possible.
Patients were recruited for the study if they were 75 or older and were admitted because of an acute illness to either the MACE service or usual care. Patients were matched for age, diagnosis and ability to ambulate independently. A total of 173 matched pairs of patients were recruited to participate in the study from November 2008 through August 2011.
After adjustment for confounders, patients in the MACE group were less likely to experience adverse events and had shorter hospital stays than patients receiving usual care. Patients in the MACE group were not less likely to have a lower rate of rehospitalization within 30 days than those in the usual-care group, and functional status did not differ between the two groups.
Care Transition Measure scores, a tool for assessing the quality of care during transition from patients perspectives, were 7.4 points higher in the MACE group, according to the study results.
The MACE service "has the potential to improve care outcomes among hospitalized older adults," the researchers concluded.
The study was published April 22 on the website of JAMA Internal Medicine (formerly the Archives of Internal Medicine).

|Background and introduction --
Strauss's formulation of the relationship between reason and revelation in modern thought and his rejection of a practical synthesis --
Fackenheim's formulation of the relationship between philosophy and revelatory theology in modern thought --
The problem of historicism --
Reason and revelation : Jewish thought after Strauss and Fackenheim.
|Sharon Portnoff.
|More information:
"Can contemporary religion, and particularly Judaism, exist without being informed by history? This question was debated in 1940s New York by two German refugees who later rose to prominence -- Leo Strauss, one of the twentieth century's most significant political philosophers, and Emil L. Fackenheim, an important post-Holocaust Jewish theologian. There has been little consensus, however, on the definitive meaning of their work. Reason and Revelation before Historicism, the first full-length comparison of Strauss and Fackenheim, places the informal teacher and student in conversation alongside sections of their analyses of notable thinkers. Sharon Portnoff suggests that both saw historicism as the nexus of the intersection and tension between philosophy and religion and raised the possibility of the persistence of the permanent in the modern world. Portnoff illuminates our understanding of Strauss's relationship with Judaism, Fackenheim's oft-overshadowed great philosophical depth, and the function and character of Jewish thought in a secular, post-Holocaust world."--Publisher's website.

Hotels aren't an option of Hurricane Ike evacuees. Every room in Bryan/College Station is booked.
There are approximately 30 hotels in Bryan/College Station and all 3,700 rooms are full, according to officials with the Bryan/College Station Convention and Visitors Bureau.
Rooms are also booked with evacuees in Waco, San Antonio and Austin, and local hotel officials are sending anyone looking for a hotel room to Killeen.
One Beaumont evacuee staying at the Hilton in College Station said finding a room wasn't easy.
"I screened the Internet looking for availability for a good half a day and found nothing. I just luckily found this Hilton Hotel and I'm glad to be here," said Seebert Jarreau of Beaumont.
For the next two weeks, Governor Rick Perry is suspending the collection of state and local hotel and motel taxes for victims of Hurricane Ike. Perry says the suspension is backdated to Sept. 8.

Recently rechristened the Bucknell Seminar for Undergraduate Poets, the Seminar's 33rd year is its first under the direction of alumna K. A. Hays. (The program was formerly known as the Seminar for Younger Poets). Held for three weeks in June, the Seminar provides an extended opportunity for undergraduate poets to write and to be guided by established poets. Staff and visiting poets conduct writing workshops and offer lecture/discussions, present readings of their own work, and are available for individual conferences.
In the past, such poets as Terrance Hayes, Dana Levin, Mary Ruefle, David St. John, Arthur Sze, Brigit Pegeen Kelly, Jean Valentine, Carl Phillips, Chase Twichell, and Mary Szybist have served as visiting poets. Numerous readings provide the participants with the opportunity to hear and be heard by their peers. Applicants compete for ten places in the Seminar, all of which come with fellowships. Fellowships include tuition, housing in campus apartments, and meals. Accepted students are responsible only for their travel to Bucknell and a modest library deposit. A limited number of travel scholarships are available.
The 2017 staff will include visiting poets Kyle Dargan, Ilya Kaminsky, and Sally Wen Mao, all of whom are program alumni, in addition to Bucknell faculty and staff. Dates for the 2017 Seminar are June 10 - July 1. The application postmark deadline is Jan. 31, 2017. See Frequently Asked Questions for eligibility and application guidelines.
Kyle Dargan is the author of four collections of poetry, Honest Engine (2015), Logorrhea Dementia (2010), Bouquet of Hungers (2007) and The Listening (2003)-all published by the University of Georgia Press.

He is currently an Associate Professor of literature and director of creative writing at American University, as well as the founder and editor of POST NO ILLS magazine. He is originally from Newark, New Jersey. For his work, he has received the Cave Canem Poetry Prize, the Hurston/Wright Legacy Award, and grants from the D.C. Commission on the Arts and Humanities.
Ilya Kaminsky was born in the city of Odessa in Ukraine, at that time part of the Soviet Union. He lost most of his hearing at the age of four. His family settled in the U.S. after being granted political asylum in 1993. His first book, Dancing in Odessa (2004), won the American Academy of Arts and Letters' Metcalf Award among other prestigious prizes. Travelling Musicians (2007) is a selection of his poems originally written in Russian. He is co-editor of the Ecco Anthology of International Poetry (2010). Kaminsky's many honors include a Whiting Writers' Award, the Milton Center's Award for Excellence in Writing, the Florence Kahn Memorial Award, Poetry magazine's Levinson Prize as well as their Ruth Lilly Fellowship, and a Lannan Foundation fellowship.
Sally Wen Mao is the author of Mad Honey Symposium (Alice James Books, 2014). She is the recipient of a Pushcart Prize and fellowships from Kundiman, Bread Loaf Writers Conference, Hedgebrook, Vermont Studio Center, and National University of Singapore. Her work is published in Poetry, A Public Space, Tin House, The Missouri Review, and Best American Poetry 2013, among others. She is the 2016-2017 fellow at Dorothy B.

Lela Star is a Collared SlutTuesday, July 26, 2016
Now all women take comfort in the idea of people owned, but for Lela Star – it's a dream come true. This babe wears her pink leather collar with pride. She's ready to be taken by the man she submits too in any way he sees fit. He's got her all dressed up in this white lacy lingerie set, as if she was a pure angel and not the slutty bitch she is.
Underneath that bra is an incredible pair of fake tits. They're so big, round, and firm with tiny perky nipples. She loves having her tits messed with and it's one think her Owner does well. Playing with her tits instantly makes her cunt soaking wet!
Ordered to remove her panties, she sits on the bed with her pussy lips right against the sheets. Her legs spread wide, just the way her man likes em. She's a statuesque beauty now, but soon she'll be just his personal fuck hole.

SEOUL, July 24 (Yonhap) -- South Korea's top central banker said Wednesday that countries around the globe are seen as more sensitive to economic conditions facing the group of three major economies in the wake of the global financial crisis.
Bank of Korea (BOK) Gov. Kim Choong-soo said in a monthly meeting with economists that countries are closely watching how economic conditions in the U.S., the eurozone and China will evolve in a bid to seek clues for steering their economies.
"Compared with the past, it seems that countries are seen as being more dependent on G3," the governor said.
His remarks came as financial chiefs from the group of 20 advanced and developing economies (G20) wrapped up their meeting on weekend in Moscow.
The BOK said in a statement that participants at the meeting shared the views that the global economy is likely to post moderate recovery down the road.
But they added that the Korean economy faces uncertainty such as viability of Japan's "Abenomics" and China's possible economic slowdown.
The BOK recently revised up its 2013 growth estimate to 2.8 percent from its earlier forecast of 2.6 percent, saying that the local economy is improving, aided by fiscal and monetary stimulus.

We fabricated the first bottom-gate amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) thin-film transistors (TFTs) on a clear plastic substrate with source and drain self-aligned to the gate. The top source and drain are self-aligned to the bottom gate by backside exposure photolithography through the plastic substrate and the TFT tri-layer. The a-Si:H channel in the tri-layer is made only 30 nm thick to ensure high optical transparency at the exposure wavelength of 405 nm. The TFTs have a threshold voltage of ∼3 V, subthreshold slope of ∼0.5 V/dec, linear mobility of ∼1 cm2V-1 s-1, saturation mobility of ∼0.8 cm2V-1s-1, and on/off current ratio of >106. These results show that self-alignment by backside exposure provides a solution to the fundamental challenge of making electronics on plastics: overlay misalignment.

Lauca Things to Do
Salar de Surire
These are other interesting places to visit in the Lauca surroundings. The roads to these parks are notoriously bad, so do yourself a favour and consult the ranger's office before you go (if you are driving a rental car and are not with a tour) - the Ranger station at las Cuevas is on the way. Flooding of roads and snowstorms are not uncommon - in...more
This park is one of the best places to see Vicunas, the more dainty relatives of the domestic llamas and alpacas. Vicunas live in the central Andes, and are prized for their wool. Nowadays they are protected. These are quite shy camelids, but the ones in this park seem to tolerate human presence better than those in other parts where they are...more
The viscacha is a weird and cute animal that specializes in living at very high altitude in the Andes. It resembles a rabbit with a tail, but in fact it is a rodent, and is more closely related to a chinchilla (which is also a South American native). Ideal habitat to find Viscachas are rocky terrains with boulders.Las Cuevas is an ideal place to...more
Cotacotani Lakes
Another impressive sight with the Parinacota & Pomerape Volcanos on one side and the lava flows filled with water on the other, forming a photogenic lake with tiny islands sprinkled in it. This is located on the way from Parinacota village to Lago Chungara, and you can either hike there on foot from the village or else stop with the car along the...more
Lago Chungara
This must be one of the most famous sights in Chile, used in books, adverts and postcards. The snow capped and perfectly conical Parinacota volcano towering above the altiplanic lake of Chungara is a sight not easily forgotten. The Parinacota vocano stands at a staggering elevation of 6350m and Chungara lake itself is at 4500m. The lake is quite...more
Parinacota Village
This tiny Aymara village with it's whitewashed colonial-style church is one of the highlights of the area. The jewel is undoubtedly the church, that apart from being gorgeous with it's white walls contrasting beautifully against the blue sky, is quite quirky. Inside they keep skulls of past priests, but unbelievable this is not the weirdest thing....more
Las Cuevas
This is one of the entrances to the park, and it already offers some stunning scenery. There is a ranger station, and it is important to consult it if you are travelling by yourself with a car as the road conditions to some parts of the park are not very reliable.There is a walking trail around Las Cuevas which is highly recommended to take, not...more
Putre is a small, attractive Aymara village at about 3500m of altitude, and is a great base for exploring the Parque Nacional Lauca. The Taapaca twin volcanos, usually covered in snow, serve as a pictoresque backdrop for the village. Putre is really relaxed, and is not as touristy as San Pedro de Atacama, though there are a few tour agencies,...more
Lauca Restaurants
The best for Alpaca Steak
This is our restaurant of choice, their food was really nice, and they served the best alpaca. Their Chilean Salmon was also really nice. The ambience is a bit lacking when compared to Kuchu Marka though, the service was a bit sloppy and the constant Bolivian music videos a bit tiring after an hour or so.more
Andean Food Specialities
This is the big brother of the cafeteria, the restaurant proper serving traditional altiplano specialities such as alpaca steaks. The ambience is good, service is great and it is definitely very popular with travellers. Food is quite nice though not the best in town for the alpaca steak ...more
Decadent cakes alert!
There is only one word adequately describing this place: sinful!! If you are in Putre you just have to go here and try out their mouthwatering, decadent cakes! Apart from the delicious cake, there is a certain ambience about the place. Inside it is rustic and cosy and the spacious terrace is exotic and stylish. I will be dreaming about their...more
Lauca Transportation
Renting a car
We opted for a rental car here, rented from Arica. a 4WD is a must in all seasons, even if you are told otherwise. In the best season to visit we found a snowstorm so you never know, it is the unpredictable Andes after all! Fill up with gas in Arica, and even though guidebooks might say otherwise, gas is available in Putre, though not through official stations. Just ask around.
We found the roads mostly tolerable, but the snowstorm stopped us from going further afield so I cannot comment beyond Parinacota and Chungara. The road from Arica to Putre, while in good condition is very dangerous due to the huge amount of Bolivian truck drivers recklessly driving on the narrow roads with no consideration for their lives or the lives of us mere mortals in normal vehicles. We saw wreckages of trucks and there was a death on the road on one of the days that we drove it. So be mentally prepared to drive extremely defensively :) Going with a tour or a bus I guess the danger is all the same and is a matter of luck (or being unlucky!)Add to your Trip Planner

DISCLAIMER: Linux noob :)
I have a corrupted clonezilla (partclone) image of entire disk. It was made of failing disk and as a result there is discrepancy in geometry information for partitions. I'm trying to restore image manually.
Clonezilla / Partclone displays warning for every target partition being smaller than source:
(Target partition size (0 MB) is smaller than source (xxxxx MB). Use option -C to disable size checking(Dangerous).)
I did exactly that I manually extracted single partition image:
cat sda1.ntfs-ptcl-img.gz.a* | gzip -d -c | partclone.restore -C -s - -o /sda1.img
Mounting this image I get read only access, can browse it. df -T displays it as NTFS disk. So it seems I can access files and not everything is lost.
However, I'm thinking, as a "pet project"... If I extracted all partitions and then merge them together, would it be possible to run a program such as TestDisk on the image and correct the filesystem? I have tried this on sda1 image and TestDisk finds a NTFS partition, but it also warns that the size of data is bigger than disk and that partition is not recoverable.
So i'm thinking - if I merged all partitions into one image file and maybe even expanded (padded) it to match original disk size, would it be possible to repair it with TestDisk or similar program?
Does this sound feasible? If so, how do I do it?

Buffeted by ballooning losses and an economy that could eventually pummel game sales, Electronic Arts (EA) will be laying off about 1,000 workers worldwideor 10 percent of its staff, per an 8-K filing. EA is hoping to save about $120 million from the cuts, which will include the closing of at least nine studios. The company estimates $55-$65 million in restructuring charges over the next few quarters.
During its Q3 earnings call, EA said it would cut 6 percent; the increase could be a hint that holiday sales aren't going as smoothly as planned. The gaming sector has weathered the financial crunch fairly wellU.S. sales of games, consoles and accessories topped $2.9 billion in Novemberand while EA's own Q3 sales were up almost 40 percent year-over-year, the company did cut its EPS outlook slightly. CEO John Riccitello said the company was "cautious" about short term revenue forecasts, given the "slow down at retail" EA had seen in October.

Police officer 'who killed family' had marriage problems
A US police officer who is believed to have killed his wife, mother-in-law and two children before turning the gun on himself was experiencing marriage problems in the months leading up to the shooting, his boss said.
There were no red flags - everything about him was outstanding. We're a small department, our families are one big family so we knew his entire family as well. It's just a tremendous shock.
I was aware that there had been a recent period of separation, but I am not aware of any violence in the past or anything like that.
His wife Kelly was a friend of mine and a friend of my wife so anything major that would have happened I probably would have known about.
I know as a family they went to Disneyland over the Christmas holidays.
Officials said they did not find a suicide note at the crime scene.

The 'Open Doctor' Doesn't Scare All
Much has been made of foreign dominance in professional golf of late, with no American golfers having won any of the past four majors—something that's only happened in one other stretch in modern history (1994). But as 2011's second major heads to Congressional Country Club outside the nation's capital, there's reason to believe the Americans can snap the drought. The course has been revamped by renowned golf architect Rees Jones, known as the "Open Doctor." This means the course will be even more daunting, but it will be a set-up familiar to many Americans on the PGA Tour.
Congressional will feature all of Jones's trademark touches—punishing new bunkers, reconstructed greens that are lightning fast and the addition of significant length. No golfer (not named Tiger Woods) has handled Jones's redesigns as well as Jim Furyk has in recent years. Among those in this field, he has the lowest scoring average of players with at least 25 rounds at events played exclusively on Jones's complete remodels (e.g. Chicago's Cog Hill, Atlanta's East Lake). While Furyk hasn't been playing great of late, his grinding style seems perfectly suited to the U.S. Open where he has a win and four other top fives.
Other Americans have prospered on courses that have gone under the Open Doctor's knife. Anthony Kim has averaged a 69.7 on Jones redesigns in this span, and one of his three Tour victories came at the 2008 AT&T National at Congressional while another came at a Jones original at TPC Redstone. Likewise, Hunter Mahan has a superb record at the AT&T, having finished no lower than T12 in his three starts (Congressional went through an initial Jones tune-up in 1989). Phil Mickelson and Steve Stricker, the top ranked Americans, also have fine records on Jones's redesigned courses—averaging rounds of 70 and 70.2 respectively.
—Ed Brockner
An American Advantage?

Ohio Prisons Shut Off Electricity In Exchange For Payments
According to the Columbus Dispatch, 24 Ohio prisons have agreed to shut off electricity for periods of three to four hours between 2 and 6 p.m. and have resorted to backup generators because of a cost agreement between the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction and KOREnergy Ltd., the company that provides power to the prisons. In exchange for agreeing to shut off the power on two hours' notice, the company makes annual payments to the prison system. Since 2010, the agreement has earned the state $1.3 million.
As a result, electricity for fans, lights, and televisions has been limited, even as Ohio, like much of the country, is suffering through a major heat wave, with temperatures soaring into the 90s all week. According to JoEllen Smith, spokeswoman for the department, prisoner cells are not air-conditioned. She said temperatures at London Correctional Institute in Madison County have ranged between 82 and 89 degrees. Smith said the prisoners are being given cold water and ice, and they can still use ceiling fans, floor fans, and outdoor sprinklers.
But shutting off power can endanger safety and security because it frustrates inmates. Ellen Kitchens, a member of CURE, an advocacy group for prison inmates and their families, told the Dispatch that shutting off power can trigger tension. "Tempers will be flaring because they're so mad about what's going on," she said. She reported that prisoners at London Correctional Institution in Madison County could not take showers because they were not functioning due to the power outage.
And as the ACLU warned in a statement, government agencies should not resort to these types of measures to earn revenue because "it compromises safety and security, not only for the incarcerated, but for the people who staff these facilities," said director of communications and public policy Mike Bricker.
While this agreement is limited in scope, the instinct to use prisons as a revenue source can have dangerous consequences. Studies of private prisons have shown that profit creates perverse incentives to lobby for incarceration and prioritize revenue over the rehabilitation of prisoners.
Given Ohio's massive prison population, however, profit from the agreement is likely going to defray the costs of mass incarceration. With 49,710 inmates in its adult prison system, Ohio has the sixth highest prison population in the country. In 2012, to incarcerate an inmate in an Ohio prison cost $24,870 per year, or $68.14 per day. The bulk of these costs went to security, involving "the supervision and control of inmates."
The Department of Rehabilitation and Correction announced that it is reducing the number of participating prisons to five, due to the heat wave. Other prisons will shut off power in one-hour intervals.

Building and Maintaining Strategic Mentoring Relationships
Stacy Blake-Beard
There is a great deal of attention on the power of mentoring relationships in our careers. Those who have access to mentors have been shown to fare better on several outcomes — they receive more promotions and higher salaries. They are more satisfied with their careers and less likely to leave their organizations. They gain access to the perspective and experience of seasoned others, and they are more likely to act as mentors to those coming behind them. With all of these benefits, we'd expect for everyone to have a mentoring relationships! But these important developmental relationships require concentrated effort and attention.
In this session, we will talk about how to effectively identify and build a mentoring connection. We will also discuss the challenges and opportunities in maintaining mentoring relationships, particularly across dimensions of difference. This interactive session will conclude with best practices and action planning to bring these practices into use.

Man arrested in shooting death of ASU student
Published: Monday, November 23, 2009 at 11:27 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 23, 2009 at 11:27 a.m.
BOONE, N.C. (AP) Police in North Carolina have arrested a man in the accidental shooting death of a college student at an off-campus party.
Boone police Capt. Jim Wilson said 20-year-old Galen Elijah Ruble of Boone was arrested Monday in the death of 20-year-old Appalachian State University student Jay Derby of Matthews.
Wilson said Derby was shot and killed with a muzzle loader early Sunday morning.
Ruble, who is not a student at Appalachian State, was charged with one count of involuntary manslaughter for the negligent shooting death of Derby, who died of a gunshot wound to the head.
Ruble is free on $10,000 bond with a court date scheduled for Dec. 15. It wasn't immediately known whether Ruble had an attorney, and a telephone listing for his family had been disconnected.

Secure Digital card (SD card)
A Secure Digital (SD) card is a tiny memory card used to make storage portable among various devices, such as car navigation systems, cellular phones, eBooks, PDAs, smartphones, digital cameras, music players, camcorders, and personal computers. An SD card features a high data transfer rate and low battery consumption, both primary considerations for portable devices. It uses flash memory to provide nonvolatile storage, which means that a power source is not required to retain stored data.
5 Data Storage Technologies to Watch in 2016
For the past 13 years, the experts at SearchStorage.com have honored the best and brightest technologies for the upcoming year. As always, we're proud to present a batch of technologies we believe will make a big impact on the data storage market.
By submitting your email address, you agree to receive emails regarding relevant topic offers from TechTarget and its partners. You can withdraw your consent at any time. Contact TechTarget at 275 Grove Street, Newton, MA.
You also agree that your personal information may be transferred and processed in the United States, and that you have read and agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.
An SD card is about the size of a postage stamp and weighs approximately two grams. It is similar in size to a MultiMediaCard, but smaller than older memory card types such as the SmartMedia card and the CompactFlash card. Both MMC and SD cards provide encryption capabilities for protected content to ensure secure distribution of copyrighted material, such as digital music, video, and eBooks. SD cards are available with storage capacities as high as 4 gigabytes.
SD cards are more rugged than traditional storage media. They have an operating shock rating (basically, the height you can drop them from and still have them work) of 2,000 Gs, compared to a 100-200 G rating for the mechanical drive of the typical portable computing device. This translates to a drop to the floor from 10 feet, as compared to a single foot for the mechanical disk drive. Both MMC and SD cards use metal connector contacts, instead of the traditional pins-and-plugs, so they aren't as prone to damage during handling.
The SD card was jointly developed by Matsushita, SanDisk, and Toshiba.

We are making a webpage for a company selling tombstones.
In the buyingprocess the customer need to be able to choose:
- How many namespaced they want(preferably dropdown or maybe radiobuttons)
- Write the name and date for the stone(Text input)
- Choose font (preferably dropdown or maybe radiobuttons)
- Chose the font color.(dropdown og radio).
I have looked at both the "Product add-ons" plugin, and the Gravity Forms.
I can not get a grip on if the cheapest(Product add-ons) can make all our wishes come through?
Can anyone who know these plugins help us with choosing the right one?

I am a newbie to PHP but I have a programming background.
I am working on modifying a plugin and I need to detect if a page is a 'post page' or, more clearly, if the page is the main blog page.
My concern is that a site's home page may not be the blog page, since we can set the home page to any other page, and the blog page is the page that I want to work with.
is_home() will not work if this is the case, right?
I hope that makes sense?

Dasa Surges Most in Three Months on Purchase of MD1
Diagnosticos da America, Latin America's biggest medical diagnostics company, gained the most in three months in Sao Paulo trading after agreeing to buy MD1 Diagnosticos SA for an undisclosed amount.
Dasa, as the company is known, surged 6.7 percent to 19.20 reais, the most since May 21. Rival Fleury SA fell 2.8 percent to 21.10 reais and the Bovespa benchmark index slipped 2 percent.
"There's synergy and Dasa would be entering the high- income market, which isn't its base focus," said Cesar Mezomo, an equity analyst for consumer stocks at Sao Paulo-based Victoire Brasil Investimentos. "It's good to keep up with Fleury and to improve its presence in Rio de Janeiro."
Under the agreement, MD1 will have to secure control of Pro-Echo Cardiodata Servicos Medicos Ltda., Clinica de Ressonancia e Multi-Imagem Ltda., CDPI - Clinica de Diagnosticos por Imagem Ltda. and Laboratorios Medicos Dr. Sergio Franco Ltda., the statement said.
"But there haven't been many details released, so we don't know how much they are paying," said Mezomo in a telephone interview.
Dasa also agreed to pay 88.5 million reais ($50.3 million) for a 10 percent stake in Pro-Echo, 28 percent in Clinica de Ressonancia e Multi-Imagem Ltda. and 16.5 percent in CDPI, the statement said.
Amil Participacoes SA, a Brazilian health insurance provider, fell 0.4 percent to 16.33 reais. OdontoPrev SA, Brazil's largest provider of dental-care plans, dropped 2.4 percent to 18.50 reais.

Robert Pattinson Receives Dating Advice From His Father
Robert Pattinson has his dad to thank for his success with women - the actor's father often sends him emails packed with tips on romance. The "Twilight" hunk has scored legions of female fans since rising to fame as Edward Cullen in the vampire franchise and is rumored to be dating co-star Kristen Stewart.
Pattinson has revealed his dad, Richard, takes a particular interest in his love life - dishing out plenty of advice on how to woo women. And the British actor decided to embarrass his father during an appearance on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno" on Tuesday, June 15, by reading out a string of romantic gestures which had been suggested to him - while Richard blushed in the audience.
He says, "He sends me these great things. I'm sorry to do this, but I thought it was so sweet... He's like, 'Dear Rob, I've been thinking about gestures and a good one in my opinion is to kiss a lady's hand. It's very romantic and refined. Offer her hand ostensibly to kiss... Shake and then the kiss. I impressed your mother that way'."
And that's not the only advice Pattinson's dad hands out - Richard also gives his son tips on how to behave if he ever wins an Academy Award: "Dear Rob, I was thinking last night about Yves Montand, the great French actor. And I thought about his elegant way of acknowledging the audience at an Oscar ceremony by gripping his wrist with one hand and raising both arms aloft... I know I've mentioned this before, but the reason I was thinking about it (was) because I watched a program last night on TV featuring some current celebrities here and I was shocked by how vulgar they were."

fixed compilation errors for amd64 (#217745)
No reason to exclude Panther (10.3), as it probably still works for a large part.
reworked adding of host system's libdirs to avoid duplicates
renamed 'binutils-libdir' to 'toolchain-libdir' in debug output
It helps a lot if you get the flag name right
First steps on wet ice. Pass -macosx_min_version argument onto the linker, holding a value set at configure time using --with-macosx-version-min
Bumped to 0.3 branch. Dropped binutils-config.in, instead added ld/create-ldwrapper.in, to be called from within binutils-config like a plugin. Dropped version number from usr/lib/misc/binutils-config install dir. Do not search for gcc, use usr/<chost>[/<ctarget>]/lib/gcc as gcc-ldpath instead.
more intelligent check if to add build-eprefix' system-libdirs to host-eprefix' runpath.
actually add_host_system_libdirs() when building natively, and ROOT is empty, and this is cross-EPREFIX
added interix as known platform
fixed aix plugin to behave more like aix system ld regarding options -bsvr4, -R<runpath>, -blibpath:<runpath>, -bnolibpath. But still keep extension to understand "-R<runpath>" even without "-bsvr4".
added StringListClear()
missing '/' in PATH and ROOTPATH environment
during binutils-config for native ld, ld-wrapper is configured using env-vars to use the new binutils without etc/env.d/ configfile, because this is invalid in case that version might have just been unmerged.
set BINPATH into PATH during binutils-config to allow finding new ld, the old one may be unmerged already (native only).
cross binutils-config also works now
do not remove old ld wrapper before the new one is linke
various warning fixes
more cross-/native-compilation, fixed plugins
added cross-compilation support.
ignoring 'version'
bumped version to 0.1.0.svnversion
added svn:keywords property to bootstrap
initial import of toolchain-prefix-wrapper

This was my first time needing the services of an Attorney and I would recommend Baskin Jones to anyone! I was hit by a car on my bicycle and after a search for an attorney familiar with bicycle accidents I found Mr. Jones. Throughout the several months dealing with a stubborn insurance agency for the lady that hit me, Mr. Jones kept me informed and asked my input throughout the process. Both Mr. Jones and his paralegals were professional and easy to work with. In the end I received a much larger settlement than I anticipated and I am very happy with the service I received. This is not a standard "Firewall Five" review, Mr. Jone's service really does warrant a five star rating.
Posted by matt
Baskin Jones as I have learned, comes from trustworthy legal family that serves MS and other jurisdictions. He is a second generation practitioner that had gained important knowledge well before I hired the firm to take my case. This shows when you meet him- his knowledge and his ability to respond is impressive. I am grateful for having met him and I am grateful to him for handling my case. Expectations were far exceeded.
Posted by Joanne
Baskin and the legal team at Giddens Law firm were always attentive to any questions I had. They took the time to explain the legal process thoroughly so I was always informed every step of the way. Baskin handled all matters of my case efficiently and always seemed to be a "step ahead" with what the next move needed to be. I would highly recommend Baskin and this law firm.
Posted by Kristen
The attorneys and paralegals at John Gidden's office were extremely patient with all my many questions and concerns. They were diligent, and always kept me up to speed. I highly recomend them to anyone seeking a probate attorney. I will use them again, should the need arise.
Posted by Lisa
He was very helpful, kind, and polite with me through the whole process. He also treated me with the upmost respect, baskin answered all my questions and took good care of me. So whenever i need a lawyer i will always call on him....... Thanks baskin you're the best!!!!!
