Perfect authentication is unachievable at the scales required for the smart grid, but we continue to design systems as if it had been achieved. Our ongoing research, using a viewpoint inspired by the concept of trust, along with results from decision theory, is attempting to provide a foundation for system design that explicitly addresses uncertainty of authentication. Although progress on the mathematical theory thus far is promising, a great deal more work is needed to understand how (or even whether) real-world behavior and experience can be modeled in the theory to make it useful in practice.

Released: Mar 01st, 2005
Running Time: 112
Director: Camera Guy
Company: Shane's World Studios
Distribution Companies: New Sensations
Cast: Trinity James, Michelle B., Mr. Pete, Jerry (II), Nicole Henderson, Trent Tesoro, Staci Thorn, Shy Love, Mika Tan, Jerry (I)
Critical Rating: AAAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
Shane's World fans, couples and solo strokers all will find stuff to love here.
Part comedy, part instructional sex release and all hot cornholing, there's a ton to love in Shane's World's first release of this type, and it's one that you will want to stock and re-stock often. All of the players offer great anal sex advice between hot bangs, and the tone is light with comic bits in between, such as Brittney Skye as super heroine Anal Woman, advising Kurt Lockwood on safe sex and telling him to use a condom if the pair hasn't been tested for disease, and animated talking buttholes aplenty, giving out the real poop (heh) on how to have great anal. The fucking is real and non-theatrical, and the girls genuinely get off on the anal, over and over again. The high heat makes the butt lessons stick.
Pre-noms to the Michelle B./Lockwood scene-a truly gorgeous affair--and the Shy Love/Trent Tesoro scene for Best Anal Scene, Most Outrageous Sex Scene to Mika Tan, Mr. Pete The Suitcase Pimp and Tan's talking asshole and Best Anal-Themed Release to the whole she-bang.

Everyone is going to see Avengers: Age of Ultron because it's filled with big action carried out by men and women in cool superhero costumes. But if it's anything like the first Avengers, it will resonate because the people in those costumes are a blast to be around. The latest clip from Joss Whedon's eagerly anticipated sequel is light on action but heavy on group camaraderie. Scenes like this are going to make Age of Ultron a billion dollar movie.

For 23 Years Man Thought To Be In Coma Tried To 'Scream', And No One Heard
"I screamed, but there was nothing to hear."
That chilling quote comes about half-way through a Guardian story today about Rom Houben, who for 23 years was thought to be in a vegetative state, but in fact was conscious — though he could not communicate.
Houben, now 46, is being cared for near Brussels. In 1983, he was in a car accident that left him paralyzed and unresponsive. Doctors thought, as Sky News explains, that he was in a coma.
In reality, Houben was conscious and could hear what was being said by those around him. It wasn't until recent years, however, that doctors used state-of-the-art imaging equipment to determine that his brain was active. Now, after several years of therapy, Houben can tap out messages on a computer with is right hand — which has limited movement.
What was it like all those years?
"All that time I literally dreamed of a better life," Houben tells Sky News. "Frustration is too small a word to describe what I felt. I shall never forget the day when they discovered what was truly wrong with me — it was my second birth."

Temporal Matching of 2-D and 3-D Wave-Based Acoustic Modeling for Efficient and Realistic Simulation of Rooms
Methods for adapting the output of a two dimensional Kirchoff-variable digital waveguide mesh to better match that of a 3D mesh, both of which are intended to model the same acoustic space, are presented. Details of the methods, including quality of output and computational demands, are given along with details of how they are incorporated into the hybrid system within which they are employed.

Restyled for 2013, the coupelike Volkswagen CC sedan jettisons its two rear seats for a three-seat bench. Even with the bigger backseat, the CC doesn't fit three child-safety seats across it. The CC is best for families with kids in booster seats or those no longer riding in child-safety seats.
How many car seats fit in the second row? Two
What We Like
What We Don't
Grading Scale
A: Plenty of room for the car seat and the child; doesn't impact driver or front-passenger legroom. Easy to find and connect to Latch and tether anchors. No fit issues involving head restraint or seat contouring. Easy access to the third row.
B: Plenty of room. One fit or connection issue. Some problems accessing third row.
C: Marginal room. Two fit or connection issues. Difficult to access third row.
D: Insufficient room. Two or more fit or connection issues.
F: Does not fit or is unsafe.
About Cars.com's Car Seat Checks
Editors Jennifer Geiger and Jennifer Newman are certified child safety seat installation technicians.
For the Car Seat Check, we use a Graco SnugRide 30 infant-safety seat, a Britax Roundabout convertible seat and Graco TurboBooster seat. The front seats are adjusted for a 6-foot driver and a 5-foot-8 passenger. The three child seats are installed in the second row. The booster seat sits behind the driver's seat, and the infant and convertible seats are installed behind the front passenger seat.
We also install the forward-facing convertible in the second row's middle seat with the booster and infant seat in the outboard seats to see if three car seats will fit; a child sitting in the booster seat must be able to reach the seat belt buckle. If there's a third row, we install the booster seat and a forward-facing convertible.
Parents should also remember that they can use the Latch system or a seat belt to install a car seat.

Losing something is always tough, having to spend time looking for it, turning the house and office upside down only to come to the realization that it has indeed been lost. This is even worse when it's a useful device like your smartphone. Many small business owners keep their whole life on their phones, and if they lose it, it's a big deal.
Here are four things you should do before you lose your phone and three things you should do when you lose it.
While you still have your phone
- Put your contact information on your phone's lock screen. On Android, go into Settings, select Security followed by Owner Info. Put in your info and tick the box at the top of the window. For iPhone users, you'll need to create an image with your contact information. When you have an image, plug your phone into your computer and put the photo in iPhoto. From there select Settings followed by Wallpaper. Pick the image you created and select Home. You'll notice it show up on your lock screen.
- Install a tracker app. Tracker apps allow you to take control of your phone from a remote location (not your phone) and do things like wipe the memory, turn on the ringtone and GPS. For Android users, Android Lost and Wheres My Droid are both good apps. For iPhone users, Find my iPhone is the best app, and should already be on your phone. If you have a Windows phone you can simply log in to My Phone and click Find a lost Phone.
- Put your contact info in the phone. Many people who find a phone will turn it on and try to look for the owner of the phone, why not help them out and put called "Meâ€, or "In case of emergency.†Be sure to include another phone number and email so people can contact you.
- Backup important information. You should be backing up your data for this reason. Luckily most smartphone operating systems sync with the cloud, so be sure to turn on syncing to ensure important information and contacts are backed up.
When you lose your phone
- Call and text it. Before you activate the tracker app, try calling your phone and sending a text from another phone, maybe someone will pick it up or see it.
- Activate tracer. When you can get to a computer, log in to the website the tracker uses and use some of the options. The first thing you should do is turn on the GPS and see the phone's location. If that doesn't work, try sounding the ringer. As a last resort, wipe the memory.
- Contact the Police. If you're worried about the information you have on your phone, or have reason to believe it was stolen, you should contact the police. It's a long shot, but people have been known to also turn in lost cellphones to police stations, so it may be worth a visit.
It isn't fun to lose a phone, but if you take steps to minimize the possibility of losing all of your data, you could be back up and running on a new phone in no time. If you'd like to learn more about securing your phone, please contact us.

Possible prehistoric elephant skull found
ELEPHANT BUTTE, N.M. (AP) — Authorities say campers in New Mexico have discovered what appears to be a prehistoric elephant skull at Elephant Butte Lake [auth] State Park.
State Parks and other agencies are investigating the find of what appears a tusk and skull of a prehistoric elephant.
State Parks Director Tommy Mutz says that until paleontologists can carefully excavate and analyze the find, they won't have conclusive information.
Paleontologists at the New Mexico Museum of Natural History and Science are working with State Park and U.S. Bureau of Reclamation Staff to investigate and potentially excavate the fossil as soon as possible.

"I do plan to return to golf one day," he said. "I just don't know when that day will be. I don't rule out it will be this year."
Golf's biggest star made his first public appearance Friday since he ran his SUV over a fire hydrant and into a tree outside his Florida home on Nov. 27, setting off a shocking and sordid sex scandal.

"When I return I need to make my behavior in line with the game," Woods said.
But CBS' David Feherty, who has covered Woods on the circuit, said the golfer may not come back soon.
"He may well take the entire year off. That would not surprise me," Faherty told CBS Evening News anchor Katie Couric. "We in the golf community, despite what people have said and what people have read, we just want him back."
"I can tell you the vast majority of players out here just want their Tiger Woods back," he added. "They understand what he's done for the game. They understand how much he means, not just to him personally but to the game of golf, the increase in purse money, the extraordinary interest in golf that has been since he's been around."

Skip to comments.Obama couldnt eat at Hill meeting without food taster [AUDIO]
Posted on 03/14/2013 4:25:14 PM PDT by pacificpundit
WASHINGTON Following President Obamas lunch meeting with Senate Republicans on Capitol Hill, Maine Republican Senator Susan Collins described the food served and said the president was not able to eat since his taster was not present.
University of Maine recipe for healthy lobster salad I pointed that out to the president in keeping with the first ladys initiatives and Fox Family Potato Chips made in Aroostook County where Im from and wild blueberry pie full of anti-oxidants, see this was a healthy lunch as well. We did have a little ice cream on the pie too, also made in Maine, Giffords Ice Cream. So in all seriousness this was well received, Collins told reporters on Thursday after the meeting at the Capitol.
He looked longingly at it, Collins continued. He honestly did look longingly at it, but apparently he has to have essentially a taster, and I pointed out to him that we were all tasters for him, that if the food had been poisoned all of us would have keeled over so, but he did look longingly at it and he remarked that we have far better food than the Democrats do, and I said that was because I was hosting.

just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean they're not after you
just look at what happened to the Queen this week. anything could happen.
best to be safe. after all... they are .. republicans (*ewww*)
*note: weirdness... the 'post reply' link didn't show. had to make the URL by hand. also noticing the main index page isn't filling up properly
I never understood the need for a taster. Very few poisons can act quick enough to kill someone where the food you are eating will still be eatable.
I'm guessing Leroy makes $200k/yr (or $100/hr) as the official 'taster'
and he tries 0bama's food sometimes as well
A man of the people should be brown-bagging.
You`d think some sort of super, ELISA test tube method would be far more accurate.
Yeah, LOL
why didn't they just use a rat???... or were they all busy trying to kill the 2nd amendment over with F Stein.
Obama isn't rich enough yet to be this anal.
Old Muzzie thing....Two muzzie big guys were fighting for power...One of the "ladies" had poison in her ring to put in the food.
ping for later
OMG!!! ONLY DICTATORS have TASTERS!!!!! WHAT AN ASS!!! or maybe he just didn;t have PERMISSION fromMOOCHELLE to EAT!!! What a PANSY!!! WHAT A DORK!!! OMG!!
Tell me that is a joke...please.
Finally, Obama has found his replacement for Reggie Love, his man crush, and now has LeRoy, the Official Taste-Tester for the CinC. Hot times in the Oral Office while Moochelle vacations on the taxpayer's dollars.
No Emperor can east without a Food Taster.
Of course, after Litvinenko such acrobatics are completely irrelevant.
That's what the old King of Norway used to do. Used to ride the city tram. Alone. And pay for the ride, too.
Collins should have told him she followed Bill Ayers' recipe that he served Andrew Breitbart 2 weeks before he died, and then watched his response...
Liberals always accuse conservatives of doing what they themselves have done or are planning to do. Always.
Why would think I would joke about something so series?
Freep-mail me to get on or off my pro-life and Catholic List:
Please ping me to note-worthy Pro-Life or Catholic threads, or other threads of general interest.
A tad paranoid, are we?
Seems Ogoofball is as paranoid as his "subjects".....
I thought tasters went out with kings and other rulers.
Why doesn't he use a TSA lackey - after all the food would be transported down his gullet.
Guess that explanation is eaiser than simply admitting that the drugs he is on kill his appetite.
To my knowledge, no President has ever before had a "taster". Only Obama.
And recall that he is also the only President, when he dines with a group, the group is supplied only with "sporks" -- no silverware, no knives and forks allowed when the President is in the room.
Somehow, I doubt that any of this fetish stems from the Secret Service. Somebody has pretensions of grandeur...
King Carol of Romania was equally unpretentious, walking the sidewalks of Bucharest & talking to ordinary citizens. He had no fear of his people.
Obama's use of a taster & having his guests make do with sporks is as classless as it is paranoid.
Good point. I did a search once of Obama's barbecue outings -- trying to determine whether pork was ever on the menu.
In every case where the "ribs" were identified, they turned out to be beef ribs.
Obama can't have a taster. The taster has to be someone less important than the person he is protecting. Osama bin Laden and Hugo Chavez are dead, and "Rev." Fred Phelps of the Westboro Baptist Church doesn't want the job. There is no one left who is even more expendable than our Dear Leader.
Loved his sardines.
The only thing I learned on this thread is that no one knows if Obama is the only president having his food tasted.
Obama gives up plenty EVERY day to attack. We need to be more careful about jumping in without any information, it makes us look bad, as if the left needed anything else to use against us.
According to this one, several presidents have had tasters, including George W. Bush. This was just a google search, they could be wrong.
From November 2003:
AS if the Queen hasnt got enough on her plate accommodating all President Bushs security demands, the Secret Service have put a food taster into the Buckingham Palace kitchens.
Nothing is being left to chance by the Americans, who have assembled the largest security operation seen in London for the three-day visit.
According to sources, everything that is destined to be served up for the President has to be tasted first.
Royalty needs food tasters, don't ya know. And he considers himself royalty.
Well rich or not, he sure is an ass!

A novel about the 50-year friendship of two dissimilar German refugees brought over to England as children from Nazi Germany. Their friendship becomes a funny yet touching model for the ways in which human beings come to terms with the tragedy of living.
About the Author
Anita Brookner est nee a Londres en 1928 et, excepte quelques annees passees a Paris, elle y a toujours vecu depuis. Historienne d art et ecrivain, elle est l auteur de vingt-quatre romans, dont "Hotel du lac", qui lui a valu d etre recompensee par le Booker Prize en 1984. Presque tous ses ouvrages ont ete publies en francais. Chez Fayard ont paru: "Les Regles du consentement" (2004) et "Loin de soi" (2006).
Praise For…
"Brookner's most touching novel...She has transcended the struggle between men and women to arrive at...truth; as if having solved the mysteries of love, she has moved on to the meaning of life."
-- Philadelphia Inquirer
In Latecomers the author of the bestselling Hotel Du Lac extends her range to produce a glowing masterpiece about the ambiguous pleasures of friendship and domesticity. Hartmann and Fibich are "latecomers" to England, brought over as children from Nazi Germany. No two men could be more dissimilar: Hartmann is an expansive, deliberately unreflective voluptuary; Fibich, the ascetic, lives in a perpetual swoon of homesickness and terror. But as imagined by Anita Brookner, their fifty-year friendship becomes a transcendently funny and touching model for the ways in which human beings come to terms with the tragedy of living.
"Brookner's illuminating depiction of her characters' inner lives makes Latecomers a brilliant, accomplished work."
-- San Francisco Chronicle

Usually when using dependency injection, unit (and other) tests are responsible for creating/mocking dependencies of the system-under-test and injecting them.
However, sometimes the test itself has dependencies, or needs to inject dependencies into the SUT that it can't itself create. For example, when testing classes which interact with a database, the test needs to know connection strings and catalog names etc., which can't be hard-coded since they aren't necessarily the same for everybody running the test.
So, how would you recommend that a test find out these settings? Do some xUnit-style test frameworks provide a way to give dependencies to a test fixture? Should the test class have static properties you populate before running all the tests? Should the test ignore DI practices and just go and get the dependencies from some global place? Other suggestions?

Q&A: Former TechnoServe Volunteer Launches Nonprofit in India
August 26, 2013
Aditya Gupta discusses his experience working with TechnoServe in East Africa, and how it motivated him to launch an organization that is addressing the issue of violence against women.
Photo credit: Abhinav Rai
Q: What is your background?
I was born in a tiny town in Punjab in northern India, and moved with my family to the capital city of New Delhi at the age of 10. I earned my undergraduate degree in Computer Engineering from Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi, one of the most prestigious institutes for engineering education in India. Among my key experiences there was a short stint as a facilitator with a nonprofit called YP Foundation, conducting workshops with school children on peer pressure, bullying, substance abuse and relationships.
I joined a role as a consulting associate at The Parthenon Group after university, and spent two years at their Mumbai office, working on strategy projects mostly for businesses in the private education sector. I did a lot of work in South and East Asia, in the Middle East and in India. I left that job as a senior associate and went backpacking in Europe for a few months prior to landing a stint as a Volunteer Consultant at TechnoServe.
Q: How did you become involved with TechnoServe?
I was close to finishing up with Parthenon, and while planning a break, was also hunting for ways to explore my direction for the future. Management consulting was not working for me, so I felt I needed to bridge into a career that was more challenging and more meaningful.
I first heard of TechnoServe from a friend who then worked at the Boston Consulting Group. I was intrigued by the thought of combining my consulting experience with an opportunity to do development work and spend time in Africa. I decided to apply.
I was contacted for the opportunity on a program called the Connected Farmer Alliance in October, and we immediately saw the synergy with my background in technology, consulting and it was a match. I spent December 2012 to March 2013 working in East Africa – Kenya and Tanzania.
Q: What did you do for TechnoServe, and what did you learn from the experience?
I worked as a Volunteer Consultant with the Connected Farmer Alliance, which aims to enhance the incomes, productivity and resilience of smallholder farmers in Kenya, Tanzania and Mozambique through mobile-based supply chain and financial products.
I spent most of my time in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam, helping to partner with local agribusinesses, define the nature of mobile-based products that might help improve supply chains with smallholder farmers, and develop product design with the Vodafone team. I joined the project at an early stage, so my experience was fairly entrepreneurial. The effort opened my eyes to the potential for mobile technology to be a driver of social change.
The experience was my first as an independent consultant and it helped me make sense of my past experience in management consulting. I found myself enjoying the role of structuring and creating processes and products and learned that I enjoyed working with a diverse team. It was also my first visit to Africa, and I cherish everything I experienced in terms of its culture, the sights, and the friends and memories I made.
Q: What is the People for Parity Foundation?
The People for Parity Foundation is a nonprofit that works to curb violence against women in India. It has two major approaches – one through gender sensitization with key stakeholders and the second through creation of technology that enables key stakeholders. People for Parity is a largely youth-driven organization.
Gender sensitization is our "problem-solving," long-term change program where we do workshop-based interventions with teenagers, youth, school counselors and corporate employees to foster better communication and understanding around gender violence.
Our technology work is our immediate-impact initiative where we are creating products that enable women in distress to reach out to the police, their trusted contacts and bystanders. The first product we've created, an Android app called "Pukar," is meant to serve this purpose for smartphone users. This initiative is trying to connect with Police Control Rooms in various cities to enable them to make a more effective rescue action.
We've recently received a fellowship called "Change Looms," which is targeted to young change leaders.

Q: How did your experience with TechnoServe influence the direction of the foundation?
My experience with TechnoServe was my first foray in to the development sector. I joined TechnoServe as a volunteer both for the synergy with my prior experience and for the potential of a cultural exploration of Africa.
I immediately found that I liked my work at TechnoServe, I liked the people I worked with, I liked how they approached their job with passion and positivity, I liked how the work would help somebody (smallholder farmers), and I liked that there was a strong work-life balance. It helped me realize that the social/development sector is where I belong.
In December 2012, as I had started settling down in Nairobi, India witnessed the horrific brutalization of Nirbhaya, a girl in Delhi who died as a result of injuries she suffered in a gang rape. Given that I've spent the majority of my life in Delhi, this stirred emotions in me as it did in thousands of people back home. I started to think about ways this malaise could be addressed, not necessarily with the intention of being the agent of change myself.
I met Amanda Satterly, TechnoServe's East Africa Gender Advisor, in February and found a great mentor and friend in her. She helped me understand the complexities of gender relations and interventions and helped define the basis of People for Parity's planned work on the issue. Mike Elliott (Program Director), Joan Leteipa (Kenya Program Manager) and other members of my project team were also exceedingly supportive in the process of creating the framework for People for Parity.
Despite having a great life in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam, and being part of a fast-evolving program, I left for Delhi in March to launch People for Parity.
Q: What is your vision for the future of the foundation?
My vision for the future is to establish a sustainable and scalable change program that is able to create measurable impact on the issue. A lot of the social work initiatives in India end up working with a very tight community. While that is often amazing and intensive work, we are looking to enable key stakeholders to be able to bring change to larger target audiences.
The foundation also hopes to work with young people and enable them to be change-makers in the society. We see ourselves as a youth organization.

UBS's $2 Billion Loss, Rescue Fund, Proxy Access: Compliance
UBS AG, Switzerland's biggest bank, said it may be unprofitable in the third quarter after a $2 billion loss from unauthorized trading at its investment bank.
London police arrested Kweku Adoboli, a UBS employee, in connection with the loss, according to a person with knowledge of the situation who requested anonymity. City of London police and UBS declined to identify the man.
UBS management aims to "get to the bottom of the matter as quickly as possible, and will spare no effort to establish exactly what has happened," the bank's group executive board, led by Chief Executive Officer Oswald Gruebel, said in a memo to staff yesterday.
The bank tumbled the most since March 2009 in Swiss trading following the announcement, which deals a blow to Gruebel's attempts to rebuild the investment bank after the division recorded 57.1 billion Swiss francs ($65 billion) in cumulative pretax losses in three years through 2009. The trading loss may revive calls for Gruebel to shrink or shut the unit.
A 31-year-old man was arrested at business premises in central London at 3:30 a.m. yesterday on "suspicion of fraud by abuse of position," City of London Police Commander Ian Dyson said in a statement yesterday. The man remains in custody while the police investigate, the police said.
Adoboli's LinkedIn page lists him as a director in ETF and Delta1 Trading at UBS investment bank in London.
The matter is still under investigation, UBS said in a statement yesterday.

Spain Becomes Fourth Country to Pass Expanded Powers for EFSF
Spain became the fourth country to approve expanded powers for the euro-region's rescue fund, the European Financial Stability Facility, when the lower house of parliament voted on the plan in Madrid yesterday.
Spain joins France, Italy and Belgium in authorizing the enhanced powers for the 440 billion-euro ($604 billion) fund. Luxembourg was expected to become the next country to ratify when its parliament voted yesterday.
All euro-region nations, excluding Greece, Portugal and Ireland, which are already receiving emergency European Union funds, need to approve the plan adopted by European leaders on July 21. European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and French President Nicolas Sarkozy have called on governments to ratify the plan by the end of this month.
Under its expanded power, the EFSF would take over bond buying responsibilities from the European Central Bank and be able to lend to nations before they need a bailout.

Commodity Derivatives May Need More Regulation, IOSCO Says
Global regulators may need to tighten their rulebooks for commodity derivatives markets to ensure they operate transparently and free from abuse, the International Organization of Securities Commissions said.
IOSCO recommended supervisors use position limits, publication of open contracts and reporting of over-the-counter derivatives to tame commodity markets that operate in "disorderly conditions," according to an e-mailed statement.
The Group of 20 Nations commissioned IOSCO to produce guidelines for commodity supervision last year. The use of derivatives to manipulate the price of foodstuffs and other raw materials is of "notable concern," according to a European Union impact study on possible rules, as it can lead to "distorted" prices that harm the real economy.
Madrid-based IOSCO brings together national market regulators from more than 100 countries to coordinate rules and share information.
SEC Defeat Leaves Investors a Longer Path to Proxy Access
U.S. shareholders reeling from last month's rejection of a measure that would have let them put board candidates on corporate ballots may find solace in a measure left standing after the federal court's decision.
A Securities and Exchange Commission rule that will take effect in the wake of that legal challenge lets any investor who has held at least $2,000 of stock for a year submit a proposal for how a firm should open board elections to shareholder nominees. That measure, delayed by the court fight, may provide a two-step path to so-called proxy access.
U.S. lawmakers, responding to complaints that corporate risk-taking and pay incentives helped spark the 2008 credit crisis, empowered the SEC to adopt a rule requiring all publicly traded companies to include shareholder nominees on proxy ballots. On July 22, the U.S. Court of Appeals struck down the rule, agreeing with business groups that said the SEC didn't adequately consider the impact on companies. The ruling didn't affect the separate rule allowing investor proposals.
The SEC, which declined to appeal the court's ruling, said in a statement that it will publish details on how the remaining rule takes effect. Advisers to companies and shareholder groups say the measure's impact is likely to be felt during next year's corporate proxy season.
The rule will be a new tool for activists that may enable shareholder groups to use the threat of proposals to pressure boards in unrelated arguments, said Jeff Morgan, president and chief executive officer of the National Investor Relations Institute in Vienna, Virginia.

Twitter Gets Leeway From SEC in Issuing Restricted Stock Units
U.S. regulators gave Twitter Inc. the go-ahead to issue restricted stock units without running afoul of a rule that requires public disclosure of financial information.
The San Francisco-based company won't have to comply with a Securities and Exchange Commission rule that compels private companies with 500 or more shareholders to make certain disclosures. Twitter requested the exemption in August; the SEC's decision was posted on its website Sept. 13.
Closely held companies with fewer than 500 shareholders aren't required to disclose financial data, such as revenue, profit, cash flow and debt. Before an initial public offering, that helps them pursue growth without the same degree of scrutiny directed toward publicly traded companies.
Some startups say the 500-shareholder rule is restrictive, and lawmakers have proposed raising the threshold to let firms with less cash expand by compensating employees with stock.
Facebook Inc. received a similar exemption in 2008, as did Zynga Inc. earlier this year.
Restricted stock units represent the right to a specified number of shares of common stock in the future if certain conditions are met.
Matt Graves, a spokesman for Twitter, didn't immediately respond to a phone message seeking comment.
Compliance Action
Ex-Investment Adviser, Filmmaker Charged in Trading Scheme
Federal prosecutors in New York accused a former investment adviser and an independent film producer of taking part in a $2.6 million insider-trading scheme involving drug-company takeovers.
According to a criminal complaint unsealed yesterday in Manhattan federal court, Scott Allen of Atlanta, in his role at a consulting firm, learned inside information about the April 2008 acquisition of Millennium Pharmaceuticals Inc. by Takeda Pharmaceutical Co. and about the September 2009 purchase of Sepracor Inc. by Dainippon Sumitomo Pharma Co.
Before the deals were announced, Allen disclosed the information to John Bennett, a producer and a longtime friend, the U.S. said. Bennett, of Norwalk, Connecticut, reaped $1.1 million in profits trading on the information, the U.S. said. Allen and an unidentified person who is cooperating with the U.S. made $2.6 million, according to prosecutors.
Bennett has acted in several films, including the 1990 courtroom drama "Presumed Innocent," according to the website IMDb.com. He cofounded Bennett Robbins Productions in 2008, according to the company's website. He worked for "a major Wall Street investment bank" before forming Bennett Robbins, the Securities and Exchange Commission said in a separate lawsuit against the two men.
Henry Mazurek, a lawyer for Bennett, declined to comment on the charges. Brian McEvoy, a lawyer for Allen, didn't immediately return calls seeking comment on the charges.
According to the complaints filed by prosecutors and the SEC, FBI agents traced the activities of Bennett and Allen as they met secretly in Manhattan hotels, shared sushi lunches at the Time Warner Center and held sidewalk rendezvous.
The case is U.S. v. Allen, 11-MAG-2361, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).
Musicland Investor Teo Must Pay $21 Million in SEC Case
Alfred Teo Sr., a New Jersey plastics manufacturer who went to prison for insider trading, must give up $21 million in profit he made while fraudulently concealing his shares of Musicland Stores Corp., a judge ruled.
U.S. District Judge Susan Wigenton imposed the disgorgement order on Teo, who lost a jury trial May 25 in federal court in Newark, New Jersey, where he contested a civil complaint by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Teo also is liable for interest and penalties to be calculated by the SEC, she ruled.
Teo's attorney, Eric Corngold of Friedman Kaplan Seiler & Adelman LLP in New York, didn't immediately return a call seeking comment on the ruling.
In March 2010, Teo agreed to pay $996,783 to cover the profits and interest that the SEC alleged he made through insider trading.
The SEC case is Securities and Exchange Commission v. Alfred S. Teo Sr., 04-cv-1815, U.S. District Court, District of New Jersey (Newark). The criminal case is U.S. v. Teo, 04-cr-00583, U.S. District Court, District of New Jersey (Newark).
SABMiller's Grolsch Wins EU Court Appeal of Antitrust Fine
Grolsch, a unit of SABMiller Plc, the world's second-largest brewer by volume, won a European Union court appeal of a 31.7 million-euro ($43.8 million) fine levied for colluding on beer prices in the Netherlands.
Antitrust officials didn't give sufficient proof to "establish the direct participation of Grolsch" in the cartel and "failed to explain" why the company should be held liable for the conduct of a Dutch subsidiary, the EU General Court, the region's second-highest tribunal, said in a ruling yesterday.
The commission will "analyze the ruling carefully" and will then consider whether to appeal the judgment or readopt the cartel decision, Amelia Torres, a spokeswoman for the EU regulator, said in an e-mail.
The case is: T-234/07, Koninklijke Grolsch v. Commission.
BAA Says It Will Seek Court Review of Ordered Airport Sales
BAA Ltd., the owner of London's Heathrow Airport, said it will seek a judicial review of a U.K. regulator's order that it sell the U.K. capital's Stansted terminal and a base in either Edinburgh or Glasgow.
BAA will ask an appeals tribunal tomorrow to review the March 2009 decision by the U.K. Competition Commission, the company said yesterday in a statement. The regulator said in July that the breakup is "fully justified," while BAA has said the decision was based on outdated information.
BAA, based in London, was first ordered to find buyers for Gatwick and Stansted in March 2009, together with either Edinburgh or Glasgow in Scotland. While Gatwick was sold to Global Infrastructure Partners Ltd. for 1.51 billion pounds ($2.39 billion), BAA was able to delay the other disposals when the Competition Appeal Tribunal upheld claims that an adviser to the regulator had a conflict of interest.
The Competition Commission has said that any changes since the decision was issued two years ago have been considered and customers would still be best served by greater competition.
EU Still Considering Final Form of Basel Bank Liquidity Rules
The European Commission is still determining what minimum liquidity rules it should impose on its banks as part of a broader overhaul of financial regulation in the region.
"The definition of the liquidity coverage ratio is still quite liquid as far as we are concerned," Mario Nava, an official in the commission's financial services department, said yesterday at the Eurofi Financial Forum in Wroclaw, Poland.
The liquidity coverage ratio, which requires banks to hold enough easily cashable assets to survive a 30-day seizing-up of credit markets, was published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in December 2010 as part of the so-called Basel III rules for banks. It must be written by nations into their laws before it can enter into force.
Date Says Consumer Bureau Looking at Need for Overdraft Rules
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is considering whether to impose rules on bank overdraft programs to ensure they're being applied "in an even-handed way," said Raj Date, the adviser running the new agency.
U.S. regulators including the Federal Reserve have imposed rules on overdraft programs, and that may lead to inconsistent supervision of different kinds of financial institutions, Date said yesterday in a Philadelphia speech.
"We will be monitoring the impact of the recent regulatory and supervisory interventions," he said. "If we find that these interventions are not working as intended, we will adjust. And if we find that additional action is needed, we will act."
Date's speech outlined the agenda for the consumer bureau, which officially started work on July 21. The agency, created by the Dodd-Frank Act, is working on issues related to credit cards, mortgages, student loans and checking accounts, he said.
As part of its work on mortgages, the bureau is developing a two-page "mortgage shopping sheet" to help homebuyers determine what a mortgage costs and whether they can afford it. The agency is also looking at changes to mortgage regulations, he said. "We want to establish some common-sense safeguards to prevent bad practices from harming consumers," Date said.

Why do I need to turn on WiFi to determine my closest location?
For some reason, my mac won't get the latest time from the NTP server if I am plugged into Ethernet. What could possibly be different between my wireless and my Ethernet?
Update: I let my Mac sit for 30 seconds with this window open, wifi off, and ethernet plugged in. The location and date would not update. Turning on wifi caused the location and date to be determined within seconds.

The apartment is absolutely brilliant - with a great terrace and a nice kitchen suitable for making breakfast and quick snacks. The host is very friendly and helpful – and quick to reply when contacted.
The apartment is located in the more quit part of Nice, and still only 700m from the beach very close to walking street and the old town. There is three Casino supermarket within 200-300m and two bakeries around the corner - the small funky organic "Bread" 50m up Gambetta and the big old school croissant pastry café on the of Gambetta corner. It's also quite easy to get there from airport if u take the cheap local bus 23 and get off at Alsace Lorraine (when u come from the airport it's the second stop on Gambetta). The apartment is also very close the Nice main train station – so u can get to Cannes in 30 min, and Monaco in 20 min.
great location, had everything we needed, extremely small though.
We arrived in Nice, took a bus from the airport to Magnan bus stop (in front of the aparthotel) near Av. Californie as Salvatore advised us to do.
We have been welcomed by Salvatore's workmate Stefan, who showed us the apartment. The studio was ok, very clean and near the beach as Salvatore mentions on description. Swimming pool is basic but very clean and not crowded. There was a few issues like; there wasn't enough toilet paper, washing up liquid, sponge in the apartment so we bought some more at Casino supermarket which is 3 minutes walk from the apartment. Cooker didn't work as expected. There was a good coffee machine, kettle, toaster, microwave, cutlery, cups, plates and bowls etc... All clean and well organised. There was no bottle opener so the nice people at the reception arranged one for us. There was one sofa bed and one pull out bet. They are ok but a bit weak. Linen was provided which was very clean and well packed just like new. Wifi internet is fast and works 24h/day perfectly. There are restaurants, patisseries, supermarkets, pharmacies, pizza, breakfast, sandwich shops very near the aparhotel (5 minutes walk or less). Suitable for couple/small family. I would come back and I recommend this studio flat.
Appartamento perfetto, molto confrotevole, curato e in pieno centro. Unico neo, qualora il caldo obblighi a tenere aperte le finestre, la strada do.ve si trova l'appartamento è moltio rumorosa la notte. Perfetto per 2 persone.
Salvatore molto gentile.
Parfait !
Vivement recommandé.
Väldigt trevlig lägenhet. Centralt, bra instruktioner och tips för vad man kunde göra under sin vistelse. God kontakt med ägaren och en lägenhet jag gärna skulle hyra igen!
Lage perfekt mitem im Zentrum.Ideal für 2.Personen
Appartement was schoon, vervoer van en naar het vliegtuig was goed geregeld. De ligging was uitstekend.
Appartartamento molto piccolo ma per 2 persone puo' bastare.
Posizione eccezionale. Doccia veramente piccola. Lavasciuga molto comoda
Angolo cottura attrezzato con piastre elettriche e forno microonde
Armadio grande ma per lo piu' occupato da strumenti per la casa come asse da stiro aspirapolvere secchio e scopettone per pulire pavimenti.
Divano letto un po' datato e non molto confortevole.
Accoglienza perfetta, il ragazzo dell'agenzia e' stato gentilissimo e ci ha fornito molte informazioni utili per girare la citta'
Mycket bra läge, lägenheten låg mindre än 1 minuts promenad från stranden och 12 minuter till Tågstationen. Gågator med restauranger alldeles runt hörnet, även en närbutik att handla ex frukost i närheten. Nära gamla stan. Liten lägenhet men man ryms 2 personer i bäddsoffan och allt det nödvändiga finns.

"Not good news for us. They think there's a rather large force attempting throught here. So I would think that they are misinformed or not informed at all of the situation down here. What's your plan?" he asked as Gray and the soldier followed from behind. Gray dropped the crate of ammo and opened it before taking his assault rifle and opening fire on the hostiles. Meanwhile the soldier assembled a rocket launcher and aimed at one of the tanks, succesfully taking one down with a direct hit. Alex glanced at the soldier with a raised eyebrow before turning back to Faith to introduce himself.
"Alex Rahkola, 5th Volunteer Platoon. Corporal from the 1st Sissi Division" he said and saluted before giving a look at Tirin.
"And where might you be heading off to?" he asked as anothr volunteer squad rushed past them with some heavier weaponry to take out a larger amount of hostiles attempting to drop into the trenchat one point of it. Alex gave way to them as they rushed past before taking cover from a grenade explosion. It was no place to be attempting small talk that's for sure

advice. ur coach prob wants you to take more control of the fight, thats why i think he wants you to press the action a bit more rather than getting bullied around the ring.
watch aggressive fighters, look at the combos they throw. they normally come of the jab.
also to fight going forward takes skill, improve your defense. anticipate how, lets use tyson as an example- counters the jab, the right hand etc.
alot of guys who like to stalk their opponent are aggressive counter punchers who attack of their opponents punches.

Denver police are blaming budget and staff cuts for delays responding to emergency calls.
This year, the average time it takes a Denver police officer to respond to an emergency call is nearly 16 minutes, an increase of nearly two minutes over the past three years.
Police officials say the department is reacting to the problem by moving more officers from desk jobs to patrol jobs.
According to the Denver Post, the police force has dropped by more than 70 sworn officer positions to about 1,400 officers this month.
