From Our Editors
The pirates have taken over the ship, their ebullient singing and laughter filling the salty sea air and alerting those around them that this is no ordinary vessel. One of these rowdy buccaneers halts his sea chantey to lift his eye patch, smudging his dark beard in the process, which elicits giggles from his fellow sailors sporting similar face paint. These freebooters are not gruff pirates, but rather youthful adventurers partaking in one of Bluefoot Pirate Family Adventures' daily cruises along the crystalline waters of the south Florida coast.
Dedicated to both educating and entertaining kids of all ages, Bluefoot Pirate Family Adventures' crew of well-trained staffers keeps wee passengers enthralled with action-packed aquatic outings. Before shipping off on the U.S. Coast Guard–certified Bluefoot, sea-dogs-in-training partake in a buccaneering crash course replete with face painting, pirate-slang translations, and studies on the linguistic evolution of landlubber. Journeys embark from the Bahia Mar Yachting Center in search of a treasure chest's lost key and culminate with an epic water-cannon fight with the nefarious Barnacle Bill. Upon docking, junior pirates receive an official certificate and a take-home bag of booty.

It is shown how large-deviations theory can be applied to construct an asymptotically efficient simulation distribution for Monte Carlo simulation using the importance sampling technique. A sufficient and necessary condition is given for the asymptotic efficiency of the candidate simulation distributions. This is done in the multidimensional setting that is required by many practical simulation problems. The result obtained is applied primarily in two areas. First, the generalization of previous work dealing with functionals of Markov chains is discussed. A second area of application is the simulation of nonlinear systems with Gaussian inputs. As an example of a system with Gaussian inputs, the simulation of a digital communication channel with nonlinear ISI (intersymbol interference) characteristic of satellite data links is considered. In the case of linear ISI, the asymptotically efficient exponentially twisted distribution turns out to agree with a method previously proposed by D. Lu and K. Yao (1988). The large-deviations point of view provides some useful insight on how to extent the Lu and Yao method to nonlinear channels

People in Central Otago over the weekend were spoiled for
choice when it came to wine and food sampling, as both
Cromwell and Alexandra hosted festivals on Saturday
Almost 1000 people attended the festival in Old Cromwell,
where they sampled wines from about 20 local wineries.
In a first for the festival, people were able to move on to
the McNulty estate, a house and grounds neighbouring Old
Cromwell, recently purchased by the Central Otago District
Council. Organiser Heather McPherson said it provided three
times as much space and had more shade, where people could
relax as they listened to entertainers Jody Direen and Martin
The inaugural Great Alexandra Craft Beer, Food and Wine
Festival, held in Pioneer Park, featured 21 food and drink
outlets and three bands. It attracted a crowd of about 500,
leaving organiser Martin McPherson pleased and confident
about the event's future. Police said no-one had been caught
drink-driving after either event.

PLEASANT HILL -- Charter schools and online learning could help turn around underperforming campuses such as Clayton Valley High School in Concord, an education reform advocate said Friday.
Lance Izumi, who is an author and senior director for education at the Pacific Research Institute public policy think tank, said many school districts throughout the state and country are failing to adequately prepare students to be competitive with students around the world.
"In a recent survey, three quarters of Americans surveyed said that college is important to achieving success in life," he said during a Contra Costa Taxpayers Association luncheon in Pleasant Hill. "However, less than half believed that their local high school was doing an excellent or good job at preparing students for college."
Of Clayton Valley 11th-graders who took the Early Assessment Program examination last year, only 29 percent were college-ready in English and barely one out of 10 met that goal for math, he said.
"On a whole set of indicators," he said, "from California's state exams to the CSU college-readiness exams to international comparisons, many students here in Contra Costa County are having real achievement issues."
Although Izumi said he did not want to wade into the Clayton Valley charter conversion controversy, he urged local school board trustees -- such as those in the Mt. Diablo district -- not to hinder charter efforts.
Similarly, Izumi said government regulations, bureaucratic intransigence and union contracts have impeded the expansion of online education, which could benefit many students. In recent years, three types of online education programs have emerged, he said.
One incorporates interactive computer software in traditional classrooms. Another, called the "blended" or "hybrid" model, combines online learning with classroom instruction. Finally, "virtual" schools are made up entirely of online lessons.
"The reason online learning is so important for all of us to understand is not only because it looks like it is the wave of the future," he said. "It is also important because the early evidence shows that it improves the achievement of students."
Izumi described several online programs such as one used by the Rocketship Charter School in San Jose, which has achieved great success with a student population that is 93 percent Hispanic. He also referred to an autistic seventh-grader in Santa Cruz, who found that online lessons through the California Virtual Academy met his needs better than classroom teachers, because the computer programs adapted to his learning level.
"Ultimately, what we need to do to improve the performance of our schools is to increase competition in the education marketplace," Izumi said. "Online education and virtual schools, charter schools, tuition tax credits and vouchers -- all these different mechanisms would put pressure on the current public school system to improve."
Some in the audience praised Izumi's ideas, while others were skeptical. Jim Hunt, a Walnut Creek resident who teaches engineering at UC Berkeley, said most of the faculty there doubts the effectiveness of online learning, which the university system is exploring.
"It's far more expensive to run an online course than a lecture-based course," Hunt said. "There's also an advantage to having students in a classroom, even if you are uncomfortable. If you hide behind a computer, you don't ever have that social interaction, which is what you have to do after you graduate."
Pleasant Hill resident Rene Maher, on the other hand, said Izumi's comments gave her hope.
"It's fun to learn when it's on a computer," she said. "The whole point of education is engaging the student. We're in an education crisis. If these children don't get educated, we're really out of luck."

'Monsters University' highlights power of optimism
Billy Crystal is the actor who voices Mike Wazowski. Crystal's career has spanned iconic films such as "The Princess Bride," "When Harry Met Sally," "City Slickers" and "Analyze This." Yet Crystal recently told USA Today that "Mike is his favorite role in his entire career, partly due to the never-ending optimism seen in both films."
"(Mike) is not the coolest-looking guy in the world and he's a little guy," the actor said. "But he's so much fun and he has such a range of emotions that I totally relate to him."
Even though Mike Wazowski exhibited plenty of optimism in "Monsters Inc." by coping with mild-to-moderate crises in his personal and professional lives, his optimistic worldview is much more integral to the plot of "Monsters University," a prequel that primarily focuses on Mike's first year of college. In essence, Mike wants his major to be in the School of Scaring — even though everyone from the university president to his peer students keeps telling him he's just not scary enough.
Approximately half of "Monsters University" revolves around the Scare Games, a weeklong event in which fraternities and sororities engage in series of competitions designed to measure their scariness.
By the time the Scare Games roll around, has Mike has already been booted out of the School of Scaring. But instead of bemoaning his bad luck, Mike joins a fraternity and negotiates a potential path back into the Scare School: If his fraternity Oozma Kappa can somehow win the Scare Games, he will be readmitted into the School of Scaring.
Just one problem with that plan: With the exception of Sulley (John Goodman), Mike's fellow Oozma Kappa pledges are even less scary than he is.
Yet Mike is again quite unfazed by the adversity. He proactively pursues a Scare Week victory — the intermediary goal that will gain him re-entry into the Scare School — by reading every book about scaring that he can get his hands on. And in order to ameliorate the shortcomings of his teammates, happy-go-lucky Mike takes on the persona of a chirpy drill instructor while putting the boys of Oozma Kappa through drills like calisthenics and cardiovascular workouts.
Mike's adaptable and diligent approach to pursuing his goal necessarily evokes something Carver said about optimists: "Of course, the expectation that things will work out for the best also helps them maintain emotional equilibrium. Being less stressed, they are less distressed."
Scare Week is full of surprises that cannot be revealed here without spoiling plot twists. But suffice it to say, the underlying force fueling the film's plot development is Mike Wazowski's optimism — his confidence that good things are going to happen, his ability to adapt his strategy to evolving circumstances, and resiliency in the face of adversity.
When optimism fails
There may be times when optimism proves to be a hindrance to happiness. However, the notion that optimists will feel downright discouraged when things don't go according to plan is actually very much a myth.
"If someone expects things to go well and they turn out badly, you'd think that person will be very disappointed," Segerstrom said. "That actually turns out not to be true. People who are optimistic, when the bad thing does happen they either have no change in their psychological health or in some cases they're actually a little better off, probably because they cope so effectively with stress."
In order to illustrate one very slim downside to optimism, Segerstrom pointed to research that shows optimists may be susceptible to gambling addiction via slot machines.
"There's a study that had people playing a fake gambling game like a slot machine, and people that were optimistic were more likely to keep gambling if they were given more 'close calls,' " she said. "They felt like they were making progress — they were almost there, they almost had it.
"But of course there's no correlation between your performance on one spin of a slot machine and your performance on your next spin. So in that one situation optimism is not good, even though in 99.999 percent of situations it's an advantage."

Jim Proctor, Pat & Gage Kruse
Jim Proctor's botanical fictions are exquisitely rendered miniature fabrications of plant and animal that captivate and terrify. Patrick Kruse and his teenage son Gage craft exquisite tableaux of abstract storytelling. In combination, the work of these artists uniquely challenges our romantic notions of nature. They all use, as their medium, the materials of the natural world. But the products of their imaginations remove us from the comfort zone of familiarity. Tennyson's famous lines, "Tho' Nature, red in tooth and claw/With ravine, shriek'd against his creed," aptly caption Proctor's work. Intricately fashioned from acorns, winged seeds, plant fibers, thorns, and stems, his tiny biomorphic sculptures bear only fleeting resemblance to their origins as—look closely—they seemingly sprout hair, teeth, or wings: His flora have become otherworldly fauna. The Kruses use tiny pieces of birch bark, red willow, and deer sinew to convey narratives of the artistic imagination. Acorns and tree bark will never look the same again. The opening reception is from 6 to 9 p.m. Friday, December 3.

CBO score is fraudulent
Published: Sunday, April 4, 2010 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 2, 2010 at 1:53 p.m.
To The Editor: Wake up, America. Democrats are desperately trying to create the illusion of momentum from a CBO report, but the report is bogus — a fact confirmed by a story in the New York Times — yes, that New York Times.
After stating Democratic leaders "spent more than a year" working with the CBO "as they fine-tuned" the various ObamaCare bills, the article states: "In other words, the overall numbers were never going to miss the mark. Whenever the budget office judged that some element or elements of the bill would cause a problem meeting the cost and deficit-reduction targets, Democrats just adjusted the underlying legislation to make sure it would hit their goal."
Translation: The numbers were rigged. Just like the rest of this process, Pelosi and gang have made a mockery of the Congressional Budget Office and the latest CBO report is just part of their scam.

I am trying to learn the ins and outs of WordPress, and wanted to make some changes, unfortunately I made a big change that I didn't mean to. Is there a way to find my original 'site' (I'm not sure if it was a template she created) and reapply? I see index.php, stylesheets but nothing I do changes the site back to its original design, which was a peach-ish color with a border and logo, etc. Thank you for your help.

The Miller Hull Partnership, a San Diego and Seattle-based architectural firm that is designing an expanded San Ysidro Port of Entry, has been named to design the first phase of the IDEA District in downtown San Diego.
IDEA -- which stands for "Innovation+Design+Education+Art" -- District is a 35-block area in the East Village designed to have office, retail and multifamily residential uses.
The Miller Hull Partnership was selected by district developers Lowe Enterprises, which completed the County Operations Center last year, and IDEA Partners LLC, which is headed by local partners David Malmuth and Pete Garcia.
The first project, referred to as IDEA1, is planned to be on the full block bounded by E, F, Park and 13th streets. It calls for a five-story, 225,000-square-foot, mixed-use development with 63,000 square feet of office space, 10,000 square feet of street-level retail and eateries, and 218 apartments surrounding a large interior courtyard.
IDEA1 will occupy a 1.37-acre site, which was recently acquired by Lowe Enterprises and I.D.E.A. Partners through a 99-year ground lease from the San Diego Community College District.
While even the first phase is years away from realization, Miller Hull announced that it plans to have its new San Diego headquarters in this initial phase of the development. Miller Hull will lease 6,000 square feet at IDEA1, sufficient to accommodate its current staff and allow for future growth.
In addition to IDEA1 and the San Ysidro Port of Entry, Miller Hull's current projects include the design of the "Africa Rocks" exhibit at the San Diego Zoo, and the Mesa Community College Cafeteria and Bookstore. The firm also designed the landmark Bullitt Center in Seattle.
Groundbreaking of IDEA1 is scheduled for first quarter 2015, with completion in the first quarter of 2017.

Impassioned pleas from the staff members who found themselves on the administrative recommendations list of fiscal year 2015 budget reductions were made in an effort to encourage the Montevideo administrative team to go back to the drawing board.
As a proposed budget deficit looms for the Montevideo school district, the administrative team found expenditure decreases totalling $293,178, the bulk of which, $140,995 would come by reducing educational assistants by one hour per day.
"We've spoken with the teachers and they've all noted the good job we're doing," said Mike Milbrandt. "I'm a single father and this will impact my livelyhood."
"This isn't about job performance," said school board member Darren Balken. "We think you're doing a great job too."
The district, during a special meeting held on February 5, found there would be several key factors impacting the development of the FY 15 budget.
Those being:
• Loss of approximately $420,000 in education jobs/AARA funding;
• Declining enrollment: "In the past five years we've seen a decline of 92 ADM," said superintendent Dr. Luther Heller. "The trend has slowed, but continues to decline."

If you're going to attach the A&E name to one, how about: C cell (or even D) size power. High quality speed control. Brushless DC motor for more power, speed, low tem & reliability. Larger/heavier offset weight on motor for better intensity. Charge $40-60 bucks (accordingly), and we'll buy it.

China overtakes Germany as biggest exporter
Published: Sunday, January 10, 2010 at 7:17 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 10, 2010 at 7:17 a.m.
BEIJING (AP) — China overtook Germany as the world's top exporter after December exports jumped 17.7 percent for their first increase in 14 months, data showed Sunday, in another sign of China's rise as a global economic force.
Exports for the last month of 2009 were $130.7 billion, data from the General Administration of Customs showed. That raised total 2009 exports to $1.2 trillion, ahead of the 816 billion euros ($1.17 trillion) for Germany forecast by its foreign trade organization, BGA.
China's new status is largely symbolic but reflects the ability of its resilient, low-cost manufacturers to keep selling abroad despite a slump in global consumer demand due to the financial crisis.
December's rebound was an "important turning point" for exporters, a customs agency economist, Huang Guohua, said on state television, CCTV.
"We can say that China's export enterprises have completely emerged from their all-time low in exports," Huang said.
Stronger foreign sales of Chinese goods could help to drive the country's recovery after demand plunged in 2008, forcing thousands of factories to close and throwing millions of laborers out of work.
Boosted by a 4 trillion yuan ($586 billion) stimulus, China's economic expansion accelerated to 8.9 percent for the third quarter of 2009 and the government says full-year growth should be 8.3 percent.
Economists and Germany's national chamber of commerce said earlier the country was likely to lose its longtime crown as top exporter.
China is best known as a supplier of shoes, toys, furniture and other low-tech goods, while Germany exports machinery and other higher-value products. German commentators note that their country supplies the factory equipment used by top Chinese manufacturers.
China surpassed the United States as the biggest auto market in 2009 and is on track to replace Japan as the world's second-largest economy soon. China passed Germany as the third-largest economy in 2007.
China's trade surplus shrank by 34.2 percent in 2009 to $196.07 billion, the customs agency said. That reflected China's stronger demand for imported raw materials and consumer goods while the United States and other economies are struggling and demand is weak.
The United States and other governments complain that part of China's export success is based on currency controls and improper subsidies that give its exporters an unfair advantage against foreign rivals.
Washington has imposed anti-dumping duties on imports of Chinese-made steel pipes and some other goods, while the European Union has imposed curbs on Chinese shoes.
The U.S. and other governments also complain that Beijing keeps its currency, the yuan, undervalued. Beijing broke the yuan's link to the dollar in 2005 and it rose gradually until late 2008, but has been frozen since then against the U.S. currency in what economists say is an effort by Beijing to keep its exporters competitive.
The dollar's weakness against the euro and some other currencies pulls down the yuan in markets that use them and makes Chinese goods even more attractive there, adding to China's trade surplus.
Even though China overtook Germany as top exporter, the customs agency said total 2009 Chinese trade fell 13.9 percent from 2008.
Commodities were among China's key imports, the agency said, with the country bringing in 630 million tons of iron ore last year, up 41.6 percent from the previous year, and 200 million tons of crude oil, an increase of 13.9 percent, as prices for both commodities fell.
Economists say China has been rushing to build up stockpiles at bargain prices since crude oil and other commodity prices plunged in 2008. That motive, more than a revival in actual industrial demand, has driven its recent import boom of oil, copper and other metals.

Add this to functions.php file.
This will ONLY add info, cause you did not said you want user be able to edit it. So you have to edit this code to asign values.
Also there is no easy way of putting these labels in top. So don't ask me how, it just did not possible to do without editing WP code or adding javascript to change possitions of elements, but this also is not very wise.

|Carbon dioxide fixation in the dark by photosynthetic bacteria in sulfide-rich stratified lakes with oxic-anoxic interfaces
|Casamayor, Emilio O.; García-Cantizano, Josefina; Pedrós-Alió, Carlos
|Issue Date:
|American Society of Limnology and Oceanography
|Limnology and Oceanography 53(4): 1193–1203 (2008)
|Carbon fixation was analyzed in a series of stratified lakes with oxygen–sulfide interfaces following 14C- bicarbonate incorporation into oxygenic phototrophic, anoxygenic phototrophic (photosynthetic sulfur bacteria; PSB), and chemolithoautotrophic guilds (dark fixation processes), respectively. One of the lakes (Lake Ciso ́, Banyoles) was studied in more detail using microautoradiography of 14C-labeled cells and microscopic observations during day and night. Dark carbon fixation was high for many of the depths sampled in all the lakes studied and there was a correspondence between carbon (C) fixation in the dark and abundance of photosynthetic purple sulfur bacteria (PSB). After in-situ dark incubations, microautoradiographies revealed labeled cells actively incorporating inorganic carbon belonging to both unidentified rod bacteria but also to PSB (Amoebobacter sp. and Thiocystis sp.). The concentration of labeled rod bacteria was very similar in light and dark incubations, as well as in day and night samplings, and had a tendency to increase in the anoxic dark hipolimnion. Surprisingly, PSB consistently incorporated inorganic carbon in dark incubations at high rates during the day but much less at night. This suggests that photosynthetic organisms are capable of substantial dark C fixation after being subjected to light, and that ''light dependent'' dark carbon-fixation activity is an issue that has to be carefully addressed in future experiments.

text: Invesco Content on this page requires a newer version of Adobe Flash Player. Invesco ( IVZ) is another name that's had an impressive run in 2012. Already this year, shares of the investment manager have rallied more than 20%, largely on the heels of an equity rally that's sent assets flowing into Invesco's funds. Today, the firm boasts more than $673 billion in assets under management, spread across a number of brands. Invesco's client base is skewed towards retail investors. While that means that its assets under management are more fickle than institutional money would be, it also means that the firm generates higher management fees than it would if it primarily managed other firms' cash. Fund performance has been steadily improving and outpacing benchmarks -- that factor should help IVZ attract more client money more quickly in the next bull market move. Even though most of IVZ's AUM is in equities, the firm has a material fixed-income business; that expertise in both "conventional" asset classes should help avoid customer flight on the next downturn. Instead, the firm can move risk-averse clients to bond funds. Invesco's successes are translating into dividends for shareholders. Recently, the firm announced a 40.8% dividend increase, making IVZ the biggest increaser on our list. The move hikes IVZ's yield to 2.83%. Invesco is a nice core holding for income investors looking for low-risk financial sector exposure.

Fire Capt. William Sestito: $130,010
Firefighter Eric Norlin: $127,832
Cushing Elementary School Principal Mary Ohrenberger: $125,133
SCITUATE — The workers at the town's six schools collectively made almost $2 million more last year than in 2012 due to added positions and pay increases, and School Superintendent John McCarthy topped Scituate's list of earners.
In his first full year as the school system's leading administrator, McCarthy grossed nearly $184,000 in 2013. He received a 2.5 percent salary hike on July 1, the start of the fiscal year.
McCarthy started at an annual salary of $175,000 in July 2012. He was eligible for a raise of up to 3 percent in 2013.
He said Thursday that the district bought back 10 of his unused vacation days at the end of the year, adding to his pay.
School employees earned a total of $28.9 million in 2013, up about 7 percent from the 2012 figure, $27.1 million, according to federal tax information provided by the town.
McCarthy attributed much of the increase to added positions at the town's six schools, as the district began reclaiming positions lost in the recession.
"We added two technology integration specialists and two elementary coordinators – one for STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) and the other for literacy," he said. "We added teachers to lower class sizes at the elementary schools, and we added four special education teachers."
All six school unions received a 1.5 percent salary increase, while the school principals, the assistant superintendent, and the director of special education were also afforded 2 percent salary increases based upon merit.
Longtime Cushing Elementary School Principal Mary Ohrenberger, the highest-paid administrator after McCarthy, saw her salary increase 2 percent to more than $125,000.
In 2013, 16 school employees made more than $100,000, up from 11 in 2012.
Police Chief Brian Stewart, who retired in June, was the town's top earner following McCarthy, grossing about $176,000.
In addition to staying on in an interim role until September, Stewart was paid for his unused time off upon retiring, thus inflating his pay, Town Administrator Patricia Vinchesi said.
Vinchesi said the incomes of police officers and firefighters topping the list are somewhat misleading, since they include pay from details that are often privately funded, as well as storm-response overtime, for which the state provides reimbursement.

Ultra CS3 Essential Training
When working with digital video, it is often necessary to place people or objects into virtual scenes, typically by filming the subject in front of a green or blue screen and replacing the background. This process is called "keying," and it can be very difficult and time-consuming. Ultra is a full-featured application included free with Premiere Pro CS3 that aims to make high-quality keying fast and easy. In Ultra CS3 Essential Training, Chad Perkins explores the finer points of keying, as well as how to use Ultra's compositing tools and library of virtual sets and backgrounds. He also discusses how to shoot good footage for keying and how to export the results. Exercise files accompany the course.
- Placing and fine-tuning key points Understanding and suppressing spill Adding overlays and animated backgrounds Customizing virtual sets Creating reflections and shadows Animating virtual camera tracking Keying complex footage Creating HD projects with SD footage Working with audio Increasing Ultra's efficiency

- [Voiceover] Hello and welcome to Lynda.com's Ultra CS3 essential training. I am your host, Adobe certified instuctor Chad Perkins and what we're going to do in the course of this training series is introduce you and get you familiar with the basic workings of Ultra. Ultra's a new application acquired recently by Adobe Systems, used for keying. Ultra also comes with Adobe's powerhouse video software application Premiere Pro. Basically Ultra is a very powerful keying application.
I'll explain what keying is a little bit more in the next movie. Basically what it allows us to do is composite footage such as this model here on top of cool backgrounds. Now one of the cool things I really like about Ultra that you'll see as we go through this training series is that Ultra was designed to be a standalone application. It wasn't designed to come with Premiere Pro. So it's actually a very full featured little program here. So as we go through this training series you'll see that Ultra can do a lot more than just get rid of a green screen, which it does remarkably well.
It also is a nice little compositing tool. It also comes with a whole wealth of backgrounds and all sorts of stuff that we're going to be looking at as well. So let's just jump right in to it and talk a little bit more about what keying is in the next movie.

Stocks Battle to End Day Flat
Stocks ended little changed, after a volatile session in which the market flirted with its worst point decline of the year, only to recover in the last half-hour of trading.
Stocks spent nearly all day in negative territory, taking their cue from disappointing retail sales data and uncertainty over resolution to Greece's debt problems.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was down as much as 87 points in midafternoon trading on Tuesday, but recovered into positive territory at the close, ending up 4.24 points, or 0.03%, at 12878.28. The Standard & Poor's 500-stock index finished down 1.27 points, or 0.1%, at 1350.50, and the Nasdaq Composite closed up 0.44 point, or 0.02%, at 2931.83.
Half of the S&P's 10 sectors finished in positive territory, led by consumer staples. Bank of America BAC -1.29 % lost the most among blue chips, down 27 cents, or 3.3%, to $7.98, after it was downgraded to "neutral" from "buy" by Citigroup, which called the bank's earnings "weak" and said consensus earnings estimates for this year and next are too high.
The market opened lower after data showed retail and food-service sales rose less than expected last month.
"The economic numbers were not all that robust, and that tempered things," said Stephen Carl, head equity trader at Williams Capital Group. "More negative news just adds to the market going south."
Indexes extended losses in the afternoon after euro-zone finance ministers postponed a meeting to discuss Greece's second bailout. But a late-session rally brought stocks back into the black, following reports that a top Greek politician, viewed as a contender to be the next prime minister, signaled a commitment to implement austerity measures despite previously opposing them.
The Stoxx Europe 600 fell 0.2% after Moody's sovereign downgrades late Monday contrasted with positive economic data from Germany, where the ZEW economic sentiment indicator for February rose to its first positive reading since May 2011.
In Asia, China's Shanghai Composite slipped 0.3%, weighed down by Europe, while Japan's Nikkei Stock Average gained 0.6% after the Bank of Japan eased monetary policy by expanding its asset-purchase program.
Gold lost 7.10, or 0.4%, to 1,715.90 a troy ounce. The yield on 10-year Treasury notes fell to 1.926%.
Michael Kors Holdings AAPL -0.12 % rose 9.24, or 27%, to 42.85, after the company beat fiscal third-quarter earnings and revenue estimates, and provided an upbeat revenue outlook for the current quarter.
Goodyear Tire & Rubber GT -0.24 % dropped 72 cents, or 5.2%, to 13.25, after the company reported disappointing fourth-quarter results, and said it expects near-term growth in the global tire industry at a slower pace than previously expected.
Perry Ellis International AAPL -0.12 % fell 58 cents, or 3.5%, to 16.18, after the company indicated fiscal fourth-quarter results would miss expectations, and said it launched a review of its brand portfolio.
Rackspace Hosting gained 6.22, or 13%, to 55.45, after fourth-quarter profit rose 85%.
Avon Products AVP 4.90 % rose 27 cents, or 1.5%, to 17.80, although the beauty-products seller reported fourth-quarter results that missed expectations.
Capella Education's fourth-quarter earnings sank on weaker total active enrollment and new enrollment. Shares of the provider of online postsecondary education fell 5.91, or 13%, to 39.44.

Anybody know why the search permalinks aren't working? Also, does anyone know of a good way to change the word separators from '+' into '-'? Two separate questions, I know, but any help on either of them would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Gallery to host new artists
Published: Sunday, January 9, 2005 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, January 9, 2005 at 12:00 a.m.
ASHEVILLE -- Asheville Gallery of Art will host an exhibit of the works of two new member-artists -- Kelly Che-lena of Hendersonville and Michael McChesney of Flat Rock -- throughout the month of January.
Chelena studied art at University of Georgia and Georgia State University. Her representative and abstract paintings are noted for their creative use of color. Her paintings have won awards in juried shows throughout the Southeast.
McChesney was an art major at Macalester College, and while teaching art in California, he continued his graduate studies at Sacramento State College. His teaching career took him to Minnesota, where he attended the University of Minnesota for further graduate studies.
His style is most closely related to the California Photo Superealists. In addition to his paintings, he will be exhibiting sculpture works.
There will be a reception for the artists from 2 to 4 p.m. today.
Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
For more information, call 251-5796.

2 Million U.S. Youths Have Prediabetes
Nov. 7, 2005 -- An estimated 2 million American youths have prediabetes, the CDC and NIH report.
In prediabetes, the body doesn't handle blood sugar as well as it should, but not as poorly as in .
Prediabetes is often a step on the path to type 2 diabetes. It also raises the risk of heart disease.
But, prediabetes may not be a one-way ticket to those problems. There could still be time to turn things around. But it takes sustained effort, and the clock is running.
Kids aren't the only ones with prediabetes. Many grown-ups have it, too.
An estimated 41 million Americans have prediabetes,, and many don't know they have those problems, the CDC reported in October.
National Numbers
The new figures are based on a national survey of 471 boys and 444 girls aged 12-19 years.
The kids represented their peers nationwide. About 16% were overweight, based on their body mass index (BMI).
The kids took a blood sugar test after fasting for at least eight hours. The test checked for impaired fasting glucose -- problems handling blood sugar after fasting.
Key Findings
Seven percent of all participants had impaired fasting glucose. That translates to about 2 million adolescents nationwide, the researchers write.
Impaired fasting glucose was more common among boys than girls. It was seen in one in 10 boys and one out of 25 girls.
Being overweight -- especially around the waist -- raised the odds. Impaired fasting glucose was seen in one in 16 overweight adolescents and one in four with large waists.
Mexican-American adolescents were more likely than whites or blacks to have impaired fasting glucose (13% of Mexican-Americans, 7% of whites, and 4% of blacks).
Further Hazards
Kids with impaired fasting glucose were also more likely to have other heart risks.
They tended to have higher levels of LDL "bad" cholesterol and lower levels of HDL "good" cholesterol.
They also were more likely to have higher systolic blood pressure. That's the first number in a blood pressure reading.
The survey was done in 1999-2000. More recent trends aren't covered. The researchers included the CDC's Desmond Williams, MD. The study appears in Pediatrics.
