Healthy Showdown: Butter Versus Margarine

When it comes to spreads for your bread, I am a longtime proponent of extra virgin olive oil. Its heart-healthy fats are a much better choice than margarine. Margarine was originally developed as a cheap substitute for butter, and has evolved from some fairly unappealing animal-based ingredients into a vegetable-oil based spread with added chemicals that make it more flavorful and easier to spread. To achieve that solid, spreadable consistency, margarine manufacturers add hydrogenated vegetable oil, creating unhealthy compounds that may contribute to heart disease and stroke. In addition, the heat and chemicals used to harden vegetable oils produce trans-fatty acids (TFAs), which can contribute to heart disease, increase cancer risks, promote inflammation and accelerate tissue degeneration.
Butter is definitely the better choice. In fact, some recent studies suggest that natural saturated fats, such as those found in butter, may not significantly contribute to cardiovascular disease, though further study is warranted. In any case, butter is closer to a whole food than margarine. If you must opt for a spread that is not extra virgin olive oil, I suggest moderate amounts of natural, organic butter.

AbstractThe U.S. Missile Defense Agency requires high energy density batteries (500-900 Wh/L) for expendable space launch vehicle power applications. Lithium thionyl chloride battery chemistry provides very high energy densities to these applications due to thelight weight of lithium and thionyl chloride solvent (500-900 Wh/L). However, due to the reactive nature of thionyl chlorides, the buildup of lithium chloride on the cathode surface during discharge hinders their utility due to the resulting loss incathode pore utilization. All efforts to date to solve the problem with supported catalysts on carbon must first make or buy the supported material followed by mixing with Teflon binder and then casting into the composite anode layer. Combustion chemicalvapor deposition of these composite layers can be beneficial by increasing the throughput rate because it can be used to deposit a composite catalyst layer of defined composition from inexpensive active catalyst precursor, Teflon binder, and high surfacearea carbon in a single processing step. Additionally, the high porosity of our composites has the potential to provide further enhancements in rate capability and pore utilization. Lithium thionyl chloride (LTC) batteries have application where highpower, and high energy densities are required. This effort will enhance the practical manufacturing of LTC batteries so that MDA will have a less expensive and higher performing battery for their needs.

Owing to the growing demand for low-cost 'networkable' sensors in conjunction with recent developments of micro-electro mechanical system (MEMS) and radio frequency (RF) technology, new sensors come with advanced functionalities for processing and communication. Since these nodes are normally very small and powered with irreplaceable batteries, efficient use of energy is paramount and one of the most challenging tasks in designing wireless sensor networks (WSN). A new energy-aware WSN routing protocol, reliable and energy efficient protocol (REEP), which is proposed, makes sensor nodes establish more reliable and energy-efficient paths for data transmission. The performance of REEP has been evaluated under different scenarios, and has been found to be superior to the popular data-centric routing protocol, directed-diffusion (DD) (discussed by Intanagonwiwat et al. in 'Directed diffusion for wireless sensor networking' IEEE/ACM Trans. Netw., 2003, 11(1), pp. 2-16), used as the benchmark.

Meet The Blog Host: Coburn Dukehart
I'm normally the Picture and Multimedia Editor for NPR.org, but I'm taking some time off from my role editing photos and videos to co-host The Baby Project blog. Over the past few years, I've worked on multimedia projects ranging from traumatic brain injury, to Woman Airforce Service Pilots, to profiling a composer at a desert monastery.
I've been at NPR since June of 2007, and prior to that was an online photo editor at usatoday.com, washingtonpost.com, and also interned in the White House photo office. I have an MA in photojournalism from the University of Missouri. The degree took me a bit longer than normal to finish since I took two years off to work in New York and London, but the journey was well worth it.
In my spare time, I like to do yoga, swim, camp and basically do anything that involves being on the water. I also bike to work, love coffee ice cream, and am currently trying to grow tomatoes in my backyard. I'm a Washington, D.C., native and will be getting married to my fiance, Brad, in Door County, Wis., this September. We are expecting our first child in January, and working on this blog has been wonderful preparation for all the expected, and unexpected, things to come.

I am working up a basic project tracking spreadsheet in Excel and would like to have two sheets - one which shows my active projects and one which shows my completed/cancelled/archived projects. I would like to assign each project a unique number so I know I would want to have data validation on my active sheet so that when I create a new project, and enter a project number, Excel reviews a specified range on the other sheet to see if I've used that number before. I am sure this is possible but am not sure of the logic I would need to use. Does anyone have any advice?
A branch off of this, does anyone have a suggestion as to how I could maintain these two lists of active / archived projects and maintain an incremental project numbering system in Excel?

I'm trying to figure out headers so I'm trying different ways of displaying a header. I have created a header file and named it wc-custom-header.php. From what have read in the codex I thought that using this code:
get_header('wc-custom-header.php') would display my header. But it doesn't. I can get it to display using this code:
include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/wc_cust_header.php') but I want to use the tags correctly and not hack up everything. Can someone guide me down the correct path with this issue?
Thanks in advance

|"Black Panther" #1 on sale in February 2009
Throughout the history of the Marvel Universe, the African nation of Wakanda has always been ruled and protected by its own costumed defender, The Black Panther. The most recent and well known Black Panther has been King T'Challa, but when writer Reginald Hudlin and artist Ken Lashley relaunch the âBlack Pantherâ series with a new #1 in February of 2009, a new character will have assumed the mantle of the Black Panther and she's a woman on a mission. CBR News spoke with Hudlin about the series and it's new title character.
A number of factors lead to the relaunching of the âBlack Pantherâ title and a female character taking over as its star, but what really got the ball rolling was the green lighting of a âBlack Pantherâ animated series at the BET television network, where Hudlin was once President. âWe had a great opportunity to take the character to the next level with the support of a prime time television series,â Hudlin told CBR News. âWe started talking about how to have a publishing event that celebrates the launch of the series. We wanted to heat up the book with a hellafied story. [Marvel Comics Editor in Chief] Joe Quesada, [Executive Editor] Axel Alonso and I kicked different ideas around, and the idea of relaunching the book came up, and starting the book with a giant crisis that would drive the next year of stories.â
That crisis ties directly into the upcoming Dark Reign event, which promises to affect almost the entire Marvel Universe. âThe new [âBlack Pantherâ] storyline is rooted in Dark Reign, and will ultimately have a big impact on that storyline, but it also will plunge deep into the workings of how Wakanda functions as a nation, and the spiritual side of the Panther cult,â Hudlin explained. âEveryone has to make dramatic changes immediately. It's a life and death situation that eventually evolves into a hardcore revenge story.â
|Also by Reginald Hudlin, "Black Panther: The Bride" and "Black Panther: Back to Africa"
The previous volume of âBlack Pantherâ starred King T'Challa and his wife Storm of the X-Men. And when the new volume of the series kicks off, the former Panther and his queen will still have somewhat of a presence in the title, but the opening story arc will be all about the new female Black Panther -- whose identity is currently a mystery. âIt's an origin story--sort of 'Who is the Black Panther now'--with a brutal series of challenges for almost every character in the book,â Hudlin said.
As the Black Panther, King T'Challa played many roles; he was a superhero, a scientist, a diplomat and a king. This has left many fans wondering if the heroic career of his successor will be just as multi-faceted. âGiven that T'Challa does almost everything well, it's unrealistic for anyone to fill those shoes,â Hudlin remarked. âSo in a time of crisis, what doesn't get handled? What are the consequences of that? Who picks up the slack? What are the consequences of that?â
Hudlin hinted that the events in âBlack Pantherâ will become global rather quickly, but the first storyline is set primarily in Wakanda. In the story, readers will get to see the Wakandansâ initial reaction to the woman who has taken up the mantle of their country's protector. âWakandans won't respond to the idea of a female Panther in a sexist fashion, they are comfortable with strong women,â the writer stated. âIt will be more 'do you have the goods to hold the title?'â
The first year of stories on the new âBlack Pantherâ series will consist of two long arcs that feed one one another. âI like switching up tones and styles in the book, but the first year will be a pretty consistent combination of hardcore action, international intrigue and adult romance,â Hudlin explained.
|Also by Reginald Hudlin, "Black Panther: Civil War" and "Black Panther: Four the Hard Way"
In his poem âThe Female of the Species,â Rudyard Kipling famously observed, âthe female of the species is more deadly than the male,â a lesson which the new Black Panther is happy to teach to her foes. âShe will be facing off with an interesting range of villains--the first of which will be a surprise appearance of a character strongly associated with one series but is a perfect fit for this one as well,â Hudlin stated.
Hudlin is thrilled his scripts for the new âBlack Pantherâ series are being brought to life by his collaborator on this year's âBlack Panther Annual,â Ken Lashley. âHe did great work on the annual, and I was very glad to hear he would be doing the book monthly,â the writer said. âHe's an amazing artist.â
Change can be a difficult thing -- especially in superhero comics-- but in telling the tale of the new female Black Panther, Reginald Hudlin is taking great care to craft a story that's both entertaining and respectful of what's come before. âConsidering it's such an imaginative medium, some comics fans can be very conservative when it comes to shaking up the status quo,â he said. âBut when you look at story lines like 'Civil War', which led to Iron Man being painted as a bad guy in many eyes, and the death of Captain America; those radical changes energized those series. This story is not a repeat of what Ed Brubaker did so well on 'Captain America', but stands on its own. Folks will have to read it for themselves and decide if they like it or not.
âThe one concern I have heard that I would want to address is the loss of yet another black male superhero,â Hudlin continued. âWe all want strong female characters, but not at the cost of black males, and especially one as beloved as T'Challa. I understand that concern, and I would feel the same way-- if I weren't writing the book and knew that what we are doing will not do that. I think the net result will be the broadening of the Panther's universe.â
|Also by Reginald Hudlin, "Black Panther:Little Green Men" and "Black Panther: Who Is The Black Panther?"
Hudlin also hopes the female star of the new âBlack Pantherâ series will help to broaden the buying demographics of both his series and comics in general. âI've always been struck by the large number of female fans that have come out in support of the book from the launch three years ago. I always wanted to reward their support by having characters they could relate to and admire,â Hudlin said. âFortunately, I had already added Shuri [T'Challa's sister] because it didn't make any sense that T'Chaka would only have one child--what king only has one kid? Typically, royal families at least have 'an heir and a spare.â And of course, the marriage of Storm and the Black Panther really connected with female readers. It's one of the healthiest relationships in comics and one of the few, if not only, black superhero couples in the game. The new storyline is built around big love--love and the amount of ass you will kick on behalf of love.
âI like female superheroes. I have a son and a daughter, and I want them both to have characters to relate to and be inspired by. I also think the current comic book audience is too much of a sausage party. My retailer (shout to the fine folks at Golden Apple in LA!) tells me a lot of attractive women show up to buy Vertigo books and whatever Joss Whedon is writing. I've never seen any cultural phenomenon that didn't become massively popular once attractive women started showing up.â

SDCC: Warner Bros. Film with "Suicide Squad," "Wonder Woman" and More
In an extensive interview with Attack of the Show's Blair Butler, Avengers writer Brian Michael Bendis confirms that Marvel's "Dark Reign" storyline will come to an end with a "big Marvel event" called Siege. It starts in December with a one-shot called Siege: The Cabal, which is followed in January by a four-issue Siege series.
Michael Lark will draw the Cabal one-shot, while Olivier Coipel will draw Siege. Both are written by Bendis. He says the storyline will bring a "seismic shift" in the Avengers titles on the level of what happened in Avengers: Disassembled and will reunite Thor, Iron Man and Captain America.
Siege was just one of several subjects Butler asked Bendis about; he also talked about Powers, various Marvel films, Fortune & Glory's 10th anniversary edition and much more. Check out the second part of the interview below (he talks about Siege at the very end) and go here to find the first half.
Also be sure to check out Dave Richards' interview with Bendis on Dark Avengers over on the main CBR site.
So, I am wondering if this is the same Siege that JMS refered to when he left Thor? As long as this puts an end to the huge company wide stories for a few years I will be happy?
Christ, yet ANOTHER big megaevent?
So tired, so boring.
is Bendis standing on two… or THREE phonebooks?
It's not a mega-event genius. It's only 4 issues…..
"Woe is me. More comics to buy."
Stop whining.
Olivier Coipel on art is a great pick.
Also, if you consider 4 issues a mega-event and you can't handle it, maybe buying comics isn't for you.
I can see if you don't wanna buy it, but complaining about 4 issues is kinda sad.
Hey, if it was DC this would've come out immediately following Dark Reign and there would still be Civil War and Secret Invasion Aftermath mini-series going on.
Seriously, you DON'T want mega-events??? After coming back from counter-Earth, here's what the alternate reality version of you "fans" are saying, where Marvel AND DC DIDN'T have the mega-events these past couple of years:
Fan 1: Why doesn't anything exciting happen in comics anymore?!?
Fan 2: Yeah! All we get are these stupid self-contained 2 arc stories. When are we gonna see another DC Crisis? When will Marvel actually do stories with real consequences?
Fan 3: Wouldn't it be cool if you had a story that affected the whole Marvel U, like if an evil despot who pretended to be good rose to power and was in charge of America, but protected by the law? That would affect every book, and then we'd get to see crossovers and tie-ins again! I miss those.
Fan 4: Yeah, we can still dream though…
Fan 1: Seriously, comics are like $0.99! That's too cheap. I guess you get what you pay for, though!
Fan 2: I tell ya, ever since Dan Didio took over Marvel, I wish he'd shake things up, like have something exciting happen with the X-Men…there's too many mutants! If ONLY something would happen that would reduce the amount of mutants to oh say, just under 100. Imagine the story potential! Or imagine if the heroes turned against each other over a moral dilemma that split the Marvel U right down the middle. Or imagine if the Hulk just went crazy and starting destroying things just because! Or imagine if shapeshifting aliens infiltrated Earth, and not even the heroes could tell who's who! I could just die just THINKING of the excitement!
Fan 4: You mad, mad fool! To even consider such wonderful plots is the HEIGHT of insanity!
Fan 3: Yeah, Joe Q isn't doing much better with DC! They should bring back the Hal Jordan and Green Lantern Corps, that's what's really missing. And wouldn't it be cool if we could get…
Fan 2: What are you thinking, you mad hatter?
Fan 3: I daren't say.
Fan 1: You must, for I cannot bear the anticipation!
Fan 3: …I know I'm going beyond the realm of the impossible, but wouldn't it be cool if we could get our comics in a weekly format, and ON TIME?!
Fan 4: BLASPHEMER! YOU DARE INVOKE IMPOSSIBILITIES WE CAN ONLY BUT DREAM OF! BEGONE!
– SIGH – Perhaps, somewhere out there, in another reality, they enjoy exciting comics that have multiple crossovers and tie-ins, mega events every year, where characters do exciting, unexpected things, instead of what we always ask the creators to have them do. Alas, we can only dream of such comics…
That's what they're saying on counter-Earth. So take heart whining fanboys, for they share your pain, in an alternate universe kind of way.
The timing of these event comics need to be better, I think is what we're saying. Going back to 2006, we've had Civil War, Annihilation, World War Hulk, Annihilation: Conquest, Secret Invasion, War of Kings, Dark Reign (technically not an "event," but whatever), etc… that's a lot of events. Especially now that we know there's going to be ANOTHER event.
If there were a big event every two or three years, I think that would be much better for everyone. Face it, there comes a point where people stop shelling out money for event LS and tie-in books…
Ending Dark Reign is a good thing. Copiel art is a good thing. What is there to bitch about?
Oh, wait, they already found something…
As long as Dark Reign is over and Thor, Cap and Iron Man are The Avengers again, I could give a rats ass about how many events and x-overs there are. ALL I want from Marvel is to have my 3 favorite heroes together under The Avengers banner again.
Bendis, Copiel, Thor/Cap/Tony, end of DR. Color me stoked!
I will be so glad when Dark Reign is over. Maybe I can start buying my favorite Marvel comics again.
The last appearance in continuity of Thor, Iron Man, and the Steve Rogers Cap in action together was actually 5 (not 10) years ago in Thor Vol 2 #81, during the Ragarnok storyline. Thor last appeared with Tony and Steve in an Avengers comic in Avengers Vol 3 #63 (2003), and left the Avengers at that time. Still, it seems like it's been a lot longer…
The problem I've had with Marvel for the past few years, is just the pacing of these events, and the aftermath. Civil War came out, and the Initative lasted for a year. Then Secret Invasion came, and now the Dark Reign lasted for a year. I still feel that the Initative could've lasted longer, but Marvel feels that they have to move constantly change the status quo. I don't get this feeling from reading DC, which is why I'm buying Blackest Night.
Only 4 issues, but…400 minis to back it up.
awesome. coipel is without peer, glad he's working on something high caliber
Nobody can quite bring apathetic whining to the level some comic fanboys can. I'm starting to think the cover price increases are asshole tax.
If this miniseries brings an end to the miserable anti-heroic crap we've been fed since Disassembled, I'm all for it, and I could even start spending more money on mainstream 616 Marvel stuff again.
Four issues sounds great, now, all I want to know is how many friggin' tie-ins this thing is gonna have, I hope, HOPE, only a few one-shots, and even that is too much, just with the Avengers titles sounds fine to me. It's time to kick some Normy-a$$, baby!!
I knew Bendis had something to do with this when JMS first mentioned Siege because they hyped the FCBD Avengers one-shot that he wrote as integral to the future of the MU, which involved an Asgardian artifact and Thor.
I haven't read any 'New' Avengers books in years. After Civil War I realized that they were basically promising stuff they were never or could never pull off. It just goes on and on and so many of the characters didnt' seem anythinglike themselves. But I'm interested in any 'Dark', 'New', or Mighty. The 'Avengers' are gone and so are some of the other Marvel books to me. I still don't see the need to have a book where still nothing happens.
Let me guess, this event will be "bigger" than the last..
how are people complaining about this?
jesus, i mean these are soap operas we read, of course they will drag on forever, if you dont like it there are plenty of comics for you to read, but superhero books are fun because of the shared continuity and things that affect the entire universe…… and civil war is STILL having huge effects, and i doubt the initiative/registration/underground avengers will be going away just because norman osborn does!
im kinda bummed its ending so soon, to be honest, ive been loving all the villians in charge books!
God love her, but a quick lesson in how to do an interview for broadcast: Don't audibly respond to your subject while they talk. Nod and smile, but no "uh-uh," "yeah," or "right."
It's hands down the worst and most common bad habit watching interviews online.
God, please let it be the last event for some time.
I'm definitely thinking about not buying the series, because as long as sales are high, one event will follow another.
No, thinking about it, I'll not buy the book, unless it is clear that there will be no more events after it for some time.
I wonder if this will be overpriced at 3.99 or 4.99 per issue?
My first comment was in no way complaining. I am Looking forward to this story and I have enjoyed Dark Reign as well as the other Event stories over the past few years, they have been really close together, and had slip ups on the way. I as a consumer would love the smaller story arcs right now and I never once bitched about them when we had them. I do have my gripes about things but I don't get my BP up over it, these are comics after all. I have bigger things to worry about in life than why this tie-in sucked and why this was written this way.
That said, in a time when the dollar is getting weaker and weaker, and it is harder and hard for us all to pay the bills and still be able to buy the books we want, I just feel (and I may be wrong here) that it would be better to have a year or so of smaller 4 arc stories not crossing over into other books or having 3 oneshots to finish the arc . But hay that is just my opinion.
Don't get me wrong. I love Brian Bendis. I loved Ultimate Spider-Man. I love New Avengers. But I feel like he's carrying too much of Marvel on his shoulders. Much like Geoff Johns at DC, I loved Teen Titans, and his Flash stuff, and his GL stuff. But the great thing about comics is versatility. And these two writers must be quivering at the knees. I've seen way too much Norman Osborn. I dropped at least 10 of my Marvel books because it would just be Norman Osborn sitting behind his desk with his feet up and a loose green tie. I'm excited to see him loose his marbles in Dark Avengers, but there comes a point where it just gets to be too much. It was a really cool concept, but they beat us over the head with it. Now it's great because this looks like its bringing it to an end. But these guys are relativley new to the game, right? About 9 years into it. Marvel n DC should be using their cash to test out new writers on different books all the time. And give the big shots their respective blockbusters.
If it's just four issues to put a wrap on Dark Reign, I'm all for it!
I actually liked Civil War (well, not how it ended… And un-doing Spidey's unmasking via Mephisto sure sucked, but I did like the concept), WW Hulk, and I even enjoyed Secret Invasion in a silly, popcorn movie kind of way. Dark Reign? I've only read the titles I would normally read, so it's Captain America (which was never really a Dark Reign book), Iron Man and New Avengers. I bought Dark Avengers too, just because I liked the idea of it.
I've been looking to drop New and Dark Avengers both because of the $3.99 price, so the end of Dark Reign seems the right time to do that. I'm guessing Dark Avengers will end with Dark Reign anyhow? I would think so, though I haven't actually heard. I'm sure there will be a bunch of Siege one-shots or spinoffs, but like Secret Invasion I'll just stick with the books I'd normally buy anyhow, leaving me with just Cap and Iron Man. Maybe neither, since I'm strongly considering dropping them and switching to trades for both titles.

Suppose that we are given a function f : (0, 1)→(0,1) and, for some unknown p∈(0, 1), a sequence of independent tosses of a p-coin (i.e., a coin with probability p of "heads"). For which functions f is it possible to simulate an f(p)-coin? This question was raised by S. Asmussen and J. Propp. A simple simulation scheme for the constant function f(p)≡1/2 was described by von Neumann (1951); this scheme can be easily implemented using a finite automaton. We prove that in general, an f(p)-coin can be simulated by a finite automaton for all p ∈ (0, 1), if and only if f is a rational function over ℚ. We also show that if an f(p)-coin can be simulated by a pushdown automaton, then f is an algebraic function over ℚ; however, pushdown automata can simulate f(p)-coins for certain nonrational functions such as \( f{\left( p \right)} = {\sqrt p } \). These results complement the work of Keane and O'Brien (1994), who determined the functions f for which an f(p)-coin can be simulated when there are no computational restrictions on the simulation scheme.

The Pauli Exclusion Principle. Can It Be Proved?
- I. G. KaplanAffiliated withInstituto de Investigaciones en Materiales, UNAM Email author

* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
The modern state of the Pauli exclusion principle studies is discussed. The Pauli exclusion principle can be considered from two viewpoints. On the one hand, it asserts that particles with half-integer spin (fermions) are described by antisymmetric wave functions, and particles with integer spin (bosons) are described by symmetric wave functions. This is a so-called spin-statistics connection. The reasons why the spin-statistics connection exists are still unknown, see discussion in text. On the other hand, according to the Pauli exclusion principle, the permutation symmetry of the total wave functions can be only of two types: symmetric or antisymmetric, all other types of permutation symmetry are forbidden; although the solutions of the Schrödinger equation may belong to any representation of the permutation group, including the multi-dimensional ones. It is demonstrated that the proofs of the Pauli exclusion principle in some textbooks on quantum mechanics are incorrect and, in general, the indistinguishability principle is insensitive to the permutation symmetry of the wave function and cannot be used as a criterion for the verification of the Pauli exclusion principle. Heuristic arguments are given in favor that the existence in nature only the one-dimensional permutation representations (symmetric and antisymmetric) are not accidental. As follows from the analysis of possible scenarios, the permission of multi-dimensional representations of the permutation group leads to contradictions with the concept of particle identity and their independence. Thus, the prohibition of the degenerate permutation states by the Pauli exclusion principle follows from the general physical assumptions underlying quantum theory.

Rupee Rises to Five-Week High as Opposition Gains Fuel Stocks
India's rupee and stocks rose to the highest level in at least a month as an exit poll showed the nation's main opposition party was poised to win four of five state elections before a national vote next year.
The Bharatiya Janata Party, which picked Narendra Modi as its choice for prime minister, was set to retain two states, take power from the ruling Congress in another and win the most seats in Delhi, according to an exit poll yesterday. Modi, the chief minister of Gujarat state since 2001, has overseen annual economic growth of 10 percent on average and attracted investment to companies from Ford Motor Co. to the Tata Group.
The rupee rose 0.5 percent to 61.7650 per dollar in Mumbai, according to prices from local banks compiled by Bloomberg. It touched 61.5350 earlier, the strongest level since Oct. 31. The S&P BSE Sensex of stocks jumped 1.2 percent to 20,957.81, the highest close since Nov. 5.
"Markets are rallying on the hope that policy reforms will make a comeback," Manish Sonthalia, a Mumbai-based money manager at Motilal Oswal Asset Management Co., which oversees about $200 million in equities, said in a Bloomberg TV India interview. "Sentiment will improve drastically."
The yield on the 8.83 percent notes due November 2023 was at 8.783 percent compared with 8.777 percent yesterday, prices from the central bank's trading system show.
Yields on 10-year U.S. Treasuries climbed four basis points over two days to 2.83 percent and reached 2.85 percent yesterday, the highest level since Sept. 18.
Final Test
The contests are the final test for India's two major parties before a national vote that must be held by May 2014. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's Congress-led coalition has seen corruption scandals, accelerating inflation and the weakest economic growth in a decade erode its popularity. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. raised India to market weight on Nov. 5 from underweight, saying the state polls may signal an opposition win in the federal vote, helping spur investment.
"The market has taken heart from the overnight political news," Nick Verdi, a strategist at Barclays Plc in Singapore, said in a phone interview.
ICICI Bank Ltd. surged 6.5 percent, the biggest advance in three months, sending a measure of lenders to its highest close in more than four months. Axis Bank surged to a five-week high. CLSA Asia-Pacific Markets "favors" the two banks as cyclical stocks will do well with the possibility of a stable national government, the brokerage said in a note today.
Larsen & Toubro Ltd., India's largest engineering company, headed for the highest close in 11 months, sending the S&P BSE Capital Goods Index to its highest level in six months.
Stimulus Concerns
Adani Enterprises Ltd. climbed to the highest level since Jan. 22, leading a rally among companies based in Gujarat, the home state of Narendra Modi.
India's rupee and stocks rose even as investors speculate that the U.S. may pare monetary stimulus as early as this month. U.S. companies added 215,000 jobs in November, topping estimates, a private survey showed yesterday. Data tomorrow are projected to show the unemployment rate in the world's biggest economy fell to 7.2 percent to match a five-year low.
Overseas investors have purchased a net $17.7 billion of Indian equities this year, the most in Asia after Japan, data compiled by Bloomberg show. They bought a net $1.1 billion of stocks in November, the third monthly inflow, the data show.
Voter Poll
The Indian exit poll conducted by C-Voter and broadcast on the Times Now channel showed the Hindu nationalist BJP gaining its highest seat tally since 1993 in Delhi, while falling short of a majority. The BJP will have 31 of the capital's 70 seats, with the incumbent Congress taking 24. The Aam Aadmi Party, which campaigned against corruption while contesting its first election, was poised to win 11 seats, the poll showed.
The one-year interest-rate swap, a derivative contract used to guard against fluctuations in funding costs, slipped one basis point to 8.41 percent, data compiled by Bloomberg show. One-month implied volatility in the rupee, a gauge of expected moves in the exchange rate used to price options, rose 20 basis points to 12.18 percent.
Three-month offshore non-deliverable rupee forwards rose 0.8 percent to 63.11 per dollar, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Forwards are agreements to buy or sell assets at a set price and date. Non-deliverable contracts are settled in dollars.

From 2007 the English village of Wootton Bassett emerged as a site to honour British military personnel killed in action. Repatriation ceremonies developed from a spontaneous act by the citizens of the town into an informal site of national respect for the armed forces. Initially cited by the media as an example to shame the country for its lack of respect for the military, it became both a space for public displays of grief and a site of political contention about British involvement in the Afghanistan war. Analysing newspaper coverage of the repatriations through Wootton Bassett, this first geographical analysis of the phenomenon describes that trajectory, its coverage by the media and the eventual return of formal control of the repatriation process to the military. Although it opened spaces for critical reflection on UK foreign policy, the Wootton Bassett phenomenon should be seen as part of a trend of the rehabilitation of the military in the aftermath of the Iraq war. The paper thus contributes to emergent debates about the militarisation of civilian space, and about the shifting nature of civil–military relations as a consequence of the two wars in which the UK has been engaged over the past decade. It concludes with a call for geographers to pay more attention to the formation and dissolution of spontaneous, immaterial and temporary sites of memory.

Does there exist any In-Memory object like the Microsoft SQL Server Temporary tables that can be used for Oracle too?
I asked about Temp tables because I have to copy X dataset and Insert them again in the same table And do some updates on the fields of the copied dataset. The copy action alone would cause a primary constraint exception, therefore I have to do a Insert Into(Select... into an In-Memory object, do updates there and then write back all changes dataset into the original table. What is better suited Temp Table or Table variable? Consider I use ADO.NET. So ONE statement which is executed must work for Oracle AND MS Sql Server without exception due to language differences.

Traffic is heavy for new Vt. health exchangeBy DAVE GRAM
The Associated Press | October 03,2013MONTPELIER, Traffic on the new Vermont Health Connect insurance exchange was heavy Wednesday, the second day of operation, even as system problems persisted with a slow-to-respond website.
Mark Larson, commissioner of the Department of Vermont Health Access and the states point person for the launch of the new exchange, said staff remained focused on improving the speed of the website.
Were making progress and analyzing the reason that the performance of the website is not what we want it to be, he said.
Later in the day, Vermont Health Connect spokeswoman Emily Yahr said in an email: We have improved the load time for the front pages of the website, and we continue working to improve overall site performance.
Yahr said the website had 20,300 different visitors and 1,230 people had created an account through which they can shop for insurance.
Enrollment in the health exchange began Tuesday in Vermont and around the country under President Barack Obamas signature health care overhaul.
Morgan Brown of Montpelier, an activist on human services issues, pointed to another flaw in the new system: a link for people looking to enroll by Jan. 1 that brought the viewer back to a blank Google search page.
Told of the problem, Yahr said it would be fixed, and two hours later, the link worked.
Brown also said he was confused by different instructions for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries. The 58-year-old is dual-eligible for both programs because he is disabled, he said.
The instruction for Medicaid talked about signing up for the program, while Medicare recipients were told they dont have to do anything for federal benefits to be covered.
Vermont has about 22,000 dual-eligible residents, said Julie Wasserman, manager of the dual-eligible program for the Agency of Human Services.
Yahr said people in Browns category would not see any significant changes from the way they get insurance now. They already have to go through a yearly process to show their continuing eligibility for Medicaid, she said.MORE IN Vermont NewsPHILADELPHIA Vermonts delegation to the Democratic National Convention took center stage...

Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving is a time for family and friends to gather together and be thankful for the love and support that we share. For many LGBT people, the holiday seasons can be times of stress and uncertainty, especially for those who are going through journeys of acceptance with their families. PFLAG has resources for both LGBT people, and their loved ones to help make the holidays smoother.
We hope that this is a restful time of thanks and remembrance for what matters most - all of our families and loved ones.

Pat Barry broke a two-fight losing skid with a first-round knockout of Christian Morecraft at UFC on FX 1 in Nashville on Friday. The path to Barry's knockout win was paved with a much better ground game from Barry. As the fight started, Morecraft caught Barry's kick, took Barry down, and immediately tried for a rear naked choke. Morecraft wasn't in good position for the choke, and Barry defended it, then pushed Morecraft off of him. After they returned to their feet, Barry landed stiff jabs that damaged Morecraft's face. Morecraft got a takedown and briefly moved into full mount before getting an armbar. Barry showed greatly improved submission defense, working his way out of the submission. When they returned to their feet, Barry threw a massive left hook and knocked Morecraft to the ground. He finished with three strikes on the ground before referee Herb Dean stepped in and stopped the fight at 3:38 in the first round. This is the best Barry has looked in a year. He was on a two-...

Synopsis for "Bad Dad"
It's one fine day in Jump City at Titans Tower. The sun is shining, and the sky is clear. But, the sky suddenly gets dark because of a gigantic shadow.
The door bell rings in the tower. Raven goes to answer the door. When she opens it, she finds Trigon, her father, peering inside. Trigon is much too big for the door so he simply talks to Raven through the door.
Trigon awkwardly says hi to his daughter. Raven is unimpressed and begins to close the door on him. Trigon catches the door with his enormous claw.
Raven asks what Trigon wants. He says he only wanted to visit his daughter. Raven does not believe him and begins to talk about the time [Teen Titans (TV Series) Episode: The End, Part III

Anyone tell me about patServer please.
Does anyone know where I can find instructions on how to use patServer - spent ages on the net trying to find a 'how to'. Specifically, where to put each of the files in one of their examples (say, tictactoe) and whether I need to use CLI to start patServer - if so how to do that. Adapting it for my purposes seems fairly straight forward but I just need to get an example running.

The foundation was born out of Whole Foods Market's desire to give something back to those who have helped us succeed while focusing on the persistent problem of world poverty and hunger.
With your help, we empower the very poor with microcredit loans to create or expand home-based businesses, such as small-scale farming, food carts and raising livestock, providing an opportunity to lift themselves and their family out of poverty in a sustainable way.
Microcredit loans are small, usually $300 or less, and require no collateral or contract. Providing impoverished women access to this type of credit enables them to escape the vicious cycle of poverty by using their own energy and creativity to help themselves.
Whole Planet Foundation currently funds microcredit for 200,000 clients (92% of them women) with a repayment rate of 97%! Including the families of our borrowers, we are supporting more than a million people with $17 million disbursed through trusted microfinance institution partners.
We support the very poor in 50 countries across Latin America, Africa, Asia and the Middle East.
What makes microcredit so amazing is the fact that the loans are repaid and reloaned again and again, and when you make a donation at the register at your local Whole Foods Market, 100% of your contribution benefits microcredit clients because Whole Foods Market covers all operating expenses for Whole Planet Foundation.
If you're not near one of our stores, you can donate online or start your own campaign on Whole Planet Foundation's website and spread awareness to your friends and family about how together we can help people change their own lives.
Read the stories of women who have benefitted from this support. This year's prosperity campaign focuses on how big change can come from small change. We're giving you the chance to do something small that could turn into something big: share a small story in our Facebook essay contest and you might win a big trip to India!
From now until March 18th, you can go to Whole Planet Foundation's Facebook page for a chance to win a trip for two to India. (You'll need to have your own Facebook account and "follow us" to enter.) You'll be asked to write a short essay, no more than 350 words, describing how a small change you have made has had a big impact on the world around you.
Feel free to include links to web pages, Facebook pages or other online locations that help tell the story.
A group of finalists will be chosen by Facebook fans' votes, and the Whole Planet Foundation team will select the final winners based on:
For a full list of contest rules and criteria, visit the Whole Planet Foundation Facebook contest page. One lucky winner and his or her guest will travel to India to witness firsthand how access to microcredit has changed the lives of so many women, like Vanaja (pictured here), as well as visit the Kerala region where Whole Foods Market sources cashews.
We thank you for your support!

A Walk Down Economy Lane With NPR's Planet Money
Talk about the economy can be taxing. Lucky for us (and listeners), NPR's Planet Money makes it possible to understand finance without being a world-renowned economist.
Earlier this month, Adam Davidson, Alex Blumberg, David Kestenbaum, Chana Jaffe-Walt and Jacob Goldstein from Planet Money took the stage at the 92nd St. Y in New York City to do just that: Explain the modern economy.
The evening's hosts walked their audience through money, past and present, in three acts. Check out photos from the night:
The History of Money
The Crisis in Greece
