As its workforce ages and major economies shift towards producing higher value-added goods and services, New Zealand will face increasing challenges to remain globally competitive and maintain high living standards. Future growth will need to come increasingly from productivity gains, and resources will have to shift towards activities that rely more on skills, technology and intangible assets.
Using a panel of OECD countries, this study assesses the linkages between structural policies and macroeconomic stability. Business cycle and time-series characteristics of GDP and its components are employed to define various measures for economic instability and for the persistence of adverse shocks.
OECD indicators of structural policy show that policy changes in Italy since 1998 should have improved the environment for entrepreneurship significantly, but in the same period its economic performance has deteriorated noticeably.
This paper provides new projections of public spending on health and long-term care for OECD countries and the BRIICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, Indonesia, China and South Africa). Despite the inevitable uncertainty surrounding projections, they suggest a rapidly rising trend over the next 50 years.
This paper proposes a new set of public health and long-term care expenditure projections until 2060, seven years after a first set of projections was published by the OECD. It disentangles health from long-term care expenditure, as well as the demographic from the non-demographic drivers, and refines the previous methodology, in particular by extending the country coverage.
Notwithstanding a very strong economic performance over the past decade or so, Poland's per capita income is substantially lower in comparison with the United States and per capita income growth will be sharply slowing down over the coming decades under the scenario of gradual policy changes mostly because of population ageing.
Meeting of National Economic Research Organisations, OECD Headquarters, 21 June 2013
Investment in knowledge-based capital (KBC) – assets that lack physical embodiment, such as computerised information, innovative property and economic competencies – has been rising significantly. This has implications for innovation and productivity growth and requires new thinking on policy.

Innovation-based growth, underpinned by investments in a broad range of knowledge-based capital (KBC), is central to raising long-term living standards.
Recent OECD research has utilised harmonised cross-country firm level data to explore the contribution of public policies to cross-country differences in productivity, innovation and resource allocation.

Urgent, heartfelt, and not-quite-as-predictable-as-you-think environmental rabble-rouser.
Director Gus Van Sant finds the human side of a knotty issue. No polemics. Just the face of a new America in crisis.
The characters drive this story, not ideology. Damon and McDormand are terrific as co-workers seeking the same goal, though they see their work from different points of view.
More an argument than a fully fleshed-out drama ... The script is unconvincing; two key narrative twists, one related to the other, are deeply hokey.
Like so many earnestly conceived morality tales, Promised Land is built around a man's quandaries. Any actor less skilled and sympathetic than Damon might have betrayed the material into obviousness. [14 Jan. 2013, p.78]
Despite their Everyman appeal, Damon and Krasinski don't create much by way of emotional investment, instead becoming mirror images of their most mild-mannered, white-bread selves.
Gus Van Sant's new film offends for how it views the struggles of the landowners at the heart of its story as subservient to their oppressor's triumph of the spirit.

Then for unknown reasons, he backed up from directing while remaining in starring in it. So a safe backup stand-in is Gus Van Sant, to whom Matt and Ben will forever indebted for the sake of GOOD WILL HUNTING (1997, 8/10), so the proviso here is that one should not expect it as a true Gus Van Sant's vehicle than a tossed-off understudy product under his belt (as I will not call his previous film RESTLESS 2011, 7/10 a misfire). The trailer can also be misguiding, if one appraises from its juicy backstory, then assumes it will be another righteous individuals vs. global gas company on ecological terms of winning the moral and monetary victory, or another ERIN BROCKOVICH (2000, 8/10), PROMISED LAND never goes that far to unveil a certain impulse of inspirational excitement, and craftily it engineers on a personal route of redemption and choosing the right way to go, with a trifle soppy sentiment and hasty conspiracy theory. Matt Damon is always playing Matt Damon (even in the action-packed BOURNE series), less an articulate orator than George Clooney, but wearing a much humbler ordinary-joe outfit, his final confession is banal but teemed with sincerity and earnestness, also an emotional spiel in the pub, which will wrought a punch in the face soon after, might end up as the highlights in his acting stretches. Frances McDormand, is excellent as usual, hardly shines with her sidelined role, basically as an observer, her character holds up a well-maintained bulwark and conveys a more reality-concerned authenticity. John Krasinski (also a co-writer and co-producer), oozes a smug confidence throughout, until it comes his "twist-revealing"segment, switching between two antagonistic parties could never be easier or more shameless from his gauche utterance, also the twist is very lame (maybe I've watched too many USA TV series since I literally felt it coming and prayed it would not be the case). Rosemarie DeWitt, Krasinski's significant other in reality, curbed by the benevolent nature of her role, is too trivial to mention. The only solid supporting performance is from Hal Holbrook, the one and only brain among the villagers, concludes the film with his concern on the focal point, how we can juggle with both the advantage of our modern life and the elephant-in-the-room ramifications it instigates, we all want to take the high ground of morality while not giving up our various privileges, there is no such good things, a pipe dream for all. To conclude, PROMISED LAND has its languid pace and formulaic structure, the palette is enjoyable, but it is just a foil in Gus Van Sant's erratic filmography, period.… Expand

Retailers in UAE take a hit as gold prices drop
Dubai: UAE based gold retailers and investors took hits on their physical gold holdings and portfolios on Monday as the precious metal continued its plunge to the lowest point in 20 months.
Spot gold dropped as much as 6.3 percent on Monday alone, hitting a low of $1,384.69 an ounce. In the last two sessions gold has fallen more than 9 percent, making for the worst two days since March 1, 1983. Gold was recently at $1,407.40, still down nearly 5 percent.
While there has been heavy retreat of investors from exchange traded funds (ETFs), hedge funds have cut bets on higher prices by 72 per cent since October.
Dubai-based gold retailers reported a lull in demand for gold as the price of the yellow metal plunged further. Many gold retailers who do not actively hedge their stocks in the futures market said they will be forced to take losses on their stocks.
Shamlal Ahmad, managing director at Malabar Gold and Diamonds, said his company's stock of physical gold is not hedged against international market prices. Many are hoping that the price plunge is a short-term market correction and the metal would bounce back.
"We are not covered [after the drop in gold prices], which is reflected as a loss in our books. But this is only for the short-term, and will not affect our business," Ahmad said.
The price of gold has dropped to $1,411 an ounce on Monday morning from $1483 at Friday's closing.
Joyalukkas Jewellery, a prominent retailer, said their stocks are hedged to absorb the price shocks. "We have "hedged [our] base stocks in futures markets," said Thomas Scaria, head of corporate finance, at the company.
"We buy our [physical gold] quantities on the day's prices," Scaria said, adding that the bulk of Joyalukkas' profits come from the making of jewellery, which is why they are not affected by the drop in gold prices.
Damas Jewellery declined to comment when Gulf News tried to reach them. Malabar Gold's Ahmad said gold sales on Saturday were five to six times more than previous Saturday's sales at Malabar's stores. Many retail investors continued to buy gold on credit cards hoping to make quick profits. "In the last four days, more than 55 per cent of purchases at Malabar's stores are via credit cards," he added.
Institutional investors said the sell-off in gold is an opportunity for long-term investors to buy and accumulate the metal at attractive levels, but investors having a shorter time horizon should increase their exposure to equities.
"If you are an institutional investor and have a very long-term investment horizon of say, 10 to 20 years, somewhere between 5 to 10 per cent gold holding in the overall portfolio is a normalised allocation," David Pinkerton, chief investment officer at Switzerland-based Falcon Private Bank told Gulf News by telephone.
He said gold currently offers a weak alternative to the US dollar since it's become a very strong currency. The turn in the gold cycle is quickening and investors should sell, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. said on April 10. Prices also fell last week on speculation Cyprus may sell gold.
"The downside in gold is temporary. The decline in gold prices is due to Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) liquidating their stocks and because the speculators have decreased their long positions in the last quarter. Any drop below $1,400 per troy ounce is an opportunity to accumulate gold," said Pradeep Unni, senior relationship manager at Dubai-based Richcomm Global Services.

Deciding which variety of PB lands on your PB&J used to be as simple as sorting out creamy vs. chunky.
But in an era when grocery aisles are a blur of choices, that decision seems downright analog.
Today, your crunchy peanut butter can come light or dark roasted. Creamy can be infused with chocolate (dark or white) or cinnamon and raisins (or just cinnamon) or molasses or coffee.
And there are savory options, such as hickory smoked or Thai ginger and red pepper. Or peanut butter blended with parsley and onions or with hot peppers or with sun-dried tomatoes.
We are a nation in love with this puree of roasted legumes, paying nearly $880 million a year to put at least one jar of it in 90 percent of American homes at any given moment.
Which partly explains the explosion of peanut butter varieties.
When a product has saturated the market as thoroughly as peanut butter, the only option for growth is to offer new - and companies hope exciting - varieties, says Harry Balzer of market research firm NPD Group.
The numbers bear that out. While overall growth for the nut butters industry has stagnated, many specialty blends and brands have seen double-digit growth, according to market research firm Mintel.
An increasingly international American palate also has spurred the profusion of peanut butter varieties, says Marie Fenn, president of the National Peanut Board, which represents the nation's peanut growers.
Consumers want new and different tastes, but they also want foods they are comfortable with, she says. Peanut butters spiked with what in this country seem unlikely ingredients often satisfy that.
Which means consumers are less likely wonder what to do with a jar of hot pepper peanut butter, and more willing to toss some of it with their soba noodles and broccoli.
To help you make sense of the scores of new and unusual peanut butter varieties, we recently sampled more than 60 jars of peanut butter. Here are the highlights and some suggestions for using them:
Blending chocolate and peanut butter is a gimme. For rich, deep chocolate flavor, try Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Spread ($4.75/12 ounces) from Portales, N.M.-based Sunland Inc.
Also excellent were Dark Chocolate Duo and European Cafe Mocha (both $6.95/16 ounces) from St. Paul, Minn.-based P.B. Loco. The former is studded with rich chocolate bits, the latter blends in a bit of coffee.
Chocolate-peanut butter blends do fine in a sandwich, but also are excellent baked into brownies or melted into hot chocolate. Also try them pureed into smoothies.
These should have been a gimme, but were mostly unappealing.
Regardless of the brand or type of fruit blended with the peanut butter (which included raspberry, cranberry, cinnamon and raisin, and banana), these varieties tasted artificial or weak.
The lesson here was that if you want berries or raisins with your peanut butter, get some jam or a box of raisins. If you want a peanut butter and banana sandwich, peel a banana. Just don't buy a blended spread.
While it bypassed the raisins, Sunland's Cinnamon Peanut Butter Spread ($4.75/12 ounces) is appealing, and would be great on a toasted muffin.
Peanut butter and honey blends generally were tasteless. For real honey flavor buy some honey. Praline and caramel peanut butter varieties were even worse.
Sweet Molasses Smooth Ground Peanut Butter ($5/10 ounces), from Chatsworth, Calif.-based Peanut Better (which is owned by Sunland), was a pleasant surprise. The gentle hint of molasses complemented the peanuts.
Little was expected of the reduced fat peanut butters, and most lived up to that prediction. The exception was Reduced Fat Jif Crunchy, which sports 25 percent less fat than traditional peanut butter (though about the same calories).
Whereas other varieties were pasty and tasteless, the crunchy peanuts in Reduced Fat Jif ($2.21/18 ounces) gave it the taste and feel of the real thing. Use it as you would any peanut butter.
Organic varieties led the way here.
Peanut butter powerhouse Smucker's took the creamy category. The company's Organic Creamy Peanut Butter ($4.61/16 ounces) has a smooth consistency without the cloying pastiness of so many creamy varieties.
Too many of the crunchy contenders either lacked sufficient crunch or were so dense they were impossible to stir. And as a side note, don't bother with the taste-challenged no-stir crunchy varieties.
The best crunchy was Santa Cruz Organic Dark Roasted Crunchy Peanut Butter ($4.49/16 ounces) from Chico, Calif.-based Santa Cruz Natural. This is what crunchy peanut butter should be - jammed with huge chunks of peanuts.
A close second was Arrowhead Mills Organic Crunchy Valencia Peanut Butter ($6.19/16 ounces), which had a slightly creamier texture, but still offered plenty of crunch and strong peanut flavor.
This is probably the toughest one for most consumers. But peanuts appear in savory dishes throughout Africa and Asia (think pad Thai), and for good reason - they are delicious.
These peanut butters offer a one-stop shopping approach to this style of cuisine. A peanut butter blended with hot peppers is easily tossed with warm pasta and chicken for a spicy peanut noodle dish.
Too bad most of these varieties were inedible. Blends with sun-dried tomato or curry seemed like great ideas, but the former was littered with hard, dry bits (presumably the tomatoes) and the latter was bitter.
Several varieties of hot pepper-infused peanut butters might be good, but packed such intense heat it was hard to tell. Perhaps try them diluted with some soy sauce and vinegar for a spicy peanut dipping sauce.
Two savory (and unlikely) standouts were both from Peanut Better - Hickory Smoked and Onion Parsley. Both were luscious and subtle in their flavoring.
Either would be good tossed with noodles or blended with chicken or vegetable broth to make a simmer sauce. They also could be whisked into vegetable or chicken soups.
Peanut butter recipes
For the brownies:
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, cut into small chunks
5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 cup creamy peanut butter
2 large eggs
1 cup sugar
For the frosting:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 stick (8 tablespoons) butter, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
1 tablespoon milk
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper.
Sift the flour and salt into a medium bowl. Set aside.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, chocolate and peanut butter. Heat in the microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Set aside.
In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the eggs and sugar until fluffy. Gently whisk in the chocolate and peanut butter mixture, then fold in the flour.
Transfer the batter to the pan and bake, rotating front to back halfway through, for 25 to 30 minutes, or until slightly firm to the touch and a crust has formed on top. Allow to cool on a rack.
When the brownies have cooled, make the frosting. In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the peanut butter and butter. Add the powdered sugar and milk, beating until smooth. Drizzle in additional milk if the frosting is too thick. Frost the brownies, then cut into bars.
Makes 16 servings.
- Brownie recipe adapted from Sherry Yard's "Desserts by the Yard," Houghton Mifflin, 2007
3 cups whole milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 cup dark chocolate chips
Mini marshmallows, or candy peanut butter cup, to garnish (optional)
In a blender, combine the milk, peanut butter, sugar and cocoa powder. Puree until very smooth, then transfer to a medium saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat.
Add the chocolate chips and heat, stirring constantly, until the chips have melted and the mixture is smooth, about 4 to 5 minutes. Ladle into mugs and garnish with marshmallows, if desired.
Makes four servings.
2 tablespoons peanut oil (canola or other vegetable oil can be substituted)
1 large yellow onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
28-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 quart (4 cups) chicken broth
1 cup peanut butter (smooth or chunky)
2 cups baby spinach greens or chopped kale (if kale, remove any tough stems)
1 pound raw shrimp, shells and tails removed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 cup crushed roasted peanuts, to garnish
Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high. Add the onion, garlic, red pepper and ginger. Saute until the onions are tender, about 4 minutes. Add the tomatoes, with juices, and chicken broth, then bring to a simmer.
Add the peanut butter, stirring until it dissolves into the soup. Add the greens and simmer until wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the shrimp and simmer until cooked through, about 5 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the cilantro. Ladle into serving bowls, then garnish with peanuts.
Makes six servings.

Peter Jackson's three-part film of The Lord of the Rings (LOTR) may or may not please votaries of J. R. R. Tolkien's prose epic, but it is a godsend to anyone like me. I love the book's "northness," its landscape of towering forests and monster-housing caves, and the creatures that inhabit that landscape; my problem is with the prose that conveys this world. Though Tolkien could write well—witness the charming prose of The Hobbit and the incisiveness of his scholarly essays—LOTR the novel contains too many sentences like this one: "The onslaught of Mordor broke like a wave on the beleaguered hills, voices roaring like a tide amid the wreck and crash of arms." The author certainly can't be accused of mixing his metaphors but this is too much of a wet thing. LOTR is lengthy, and a lengthy book needs fresher language than Tolkien could provide.
In the film adaptation, of course, the prose is gone, and Middle-earth floods into movie theaters by way of gorgeous photography and the latest digital tricks. For some, the movie will seem a desecration precisely because it is so visually forceful. You thought you knew what the wizard Gandalf looked like as he took shape within your mind as you read? Well, gaze on Sir Ian McKellen for just five seconds and kiss your inner-eye wizard goodbye. This movie isn't merely an adaptation; it's a coup d'etat. It overthrows our reading responses with a...

All Rise...
Get the heck out of Judge Daryl Loomis' flop!
Editor's Note
Our review of Backlash (2000), published June 12th, 2000, is also available.
The Charge
Love's violent recoil!
The Case
From the early days of cinema and into the 1950s, there was a level of filmmaking known derisively as Poverty Row. These were lower than B-productions, real cheap stuff, and mostly bad. But not always. The king of the Poverty Row pictures is the 1945 Edgar G. Ulmer drama, Detour, but it's not the only gem to come out of that morass. One such came the next year. Helmed by the nearly unknown journeyman Eugene Ford (The Lady Escapes), Backlash is an interesting mystery told in an odd way that any noir fan could get behind.
Detective Jerry McMullen (Larry J. Blake, Demon Seed) just stumbled onto a mystery to solve. A car has been found crashed in a ravine with a body inside, the body of the wealthy John Morland (John Eldredge, High Sierra) shot through the back of the skull. He's immediately suspicious of Morland's young wife, Catherine Morland (Jean Rogers, Flash Gordon's Trip to Mars). But, as his investigation continues, he finds any number of people who might want to kill him and, based on all the evidence, starts to wonder if Morland is actually dead at all.
Whenever one watches one of these Poverty Row pictures from the era, one has to get over those budgetary concerns before enjoying the story, which could be no less creative, and sometimes much more so, than their A-level counterparts. I don't think anybody is going to accuse Backlash of particular originality, but for the time, it tells a disjointed story through flashbacks that wind up making for an intriguing mystery. Its conclusion probably won't surprise, but the lead up to it is an enjoyable and well-written story penned by Irving Elman (The Crimson Key).
At the start, it seems like a standard and terribly boring picture, but as the investigation, and thus, the flashbacks start, the cops themselves take second stage to a disparate group of swindlers and crooks, including Morland himself. We get to know them, in part, through the police interviews and, in part, through those flashbacks. But, more than that, we learn about the through other people's flashbacks. Is Catherine a cheating shrew bent on poisoning her husband, or was the fact that his associate owed him tens of thousands of dollars the motive? There are a ton of threads that are finally brought together by simple facts, but it makes sense and feels satisfying, especially since, at 66 minutes, it doesn't try to overplay its hand. It's a straightforward and compelling noir, and that will always make me happy.
The DVD for Backlash comes from Fox and their Cinema Archives collection. It's as-is, but that's sort of fine for movies like this, which always were as-is anyway. The full frame image is a little roughed up, but probably not much more than how it originally was exhibited at most second-rate theaters in its own time. The contrast isn't too bad and the black levels are pretty strong, though it's nothing to brag about. The sound is pretty much what it is. It's somewhat hissy, with pops and cracks throughout, but the dialogue is clearly audible, so good enough. No extras, but that's standard for Fox's on-demand service.
For all its budgetary limitations, Backlash is a fine little movie. It's no Detour, and by no means a classic of cellar-dwelling noir, but this is a very interesting mystery that's nicely told and smartly executed, especially for the talent involved. I can easily recommend this to any film noir fan.

Case dismissed.

Here is the problem. It is not that there is nothing to do, it is that now many tasks are not worth it to do. I can't help but feel slighted because every patch is nerf this and nerf that and do next to nothing else. There would be no complaints if the game released that way but after getting so much more before it makes the game less appealing.
Oh and this patch doesn't deliver like it is supposed to. One of the patch notes says there is supposed to be a 1.5x multiplier for money if a mission is played on hard and a 1.25x multiplier for normal. Of course the nerfs are coded in correctly but when it comes to actually making something that would benefit the player, the code is non-existent. Said multipliers were conveniently either not added as stated or coded wrong where they do not work.
Again, you're completely throwing what I said out of context. I PLAY with people higher than me so I'd be a tremendous hypocrite in that sense and wouldn't bother playing at all. I'm just on a middle ground with MT's, which I still feel are cheap but then again so was COD Elite or whatever that extra reward crap was. However, these people are paying real money for this. That's their own problem and they're out $20 or more that earned in game within a month or so as I'd planned. If people are assuming I consider myself "better" than them b/c of how I play, you're very mistaken.
I would be hating on people putting in the bare minimum effort that just give away millions or glitch to sell a Felon over and over. The giving away is a thin line walker but idk, I just prefer earning it.
I'm still finding it hard to believe the "harder to earn" argument in entirety b/c last night, I was still earning decent $ and RP. It certainly didnt' feel like I was earning mere dollars compared to thousands before.

Ive been looking at colleges that have ballet programs, and at conservatories, but I dont really know where to go.
Any suggestions or advice I would really appreciate

Link Wray: Father of the Power Chord
Link Wray is the man who is said to have inspired rock-and-roll legends such as Pete Townsend and Neil Young with his power chord guitar playing. Link Wray was 76 when he died earlier this month at his home in Copenhagen. Wray's style was considered to be the foundation for heavy metal and punk music.
MICHELE NORRIS, host:
These guitar chords changed rock 'n' roll.
(Soundbite of "Rumble")
NORRIS: Today in the parlance of rock 'n' roll, they're called power chords.
(Soundbite of "Rumble")
NORRIS: And they are the creation of musician Link Wray. Link Wray died earlier this month at his home in Copenhagen. This song "Rumble" in 1958 and remains a seminal piece of rock and roll.
(Soundbite of "Rumble")
NORRIS: The Who's Pete Townshend said he never would have picked up a guitar had it not been for Link Wray and "Rumble." Neil Young was another fan of those basic chords from an electric guitar and played loud.
(Soundbite of "Rumble")
NORRIS: Not quite 30, Link Wray said he was looking for something that jazz kings weren't doing, something that country pickers weren't doing, a sound all his own. What he found was raw and throbbing, overamplified waves of electric guitar that connected right to the soul of the teen rebellion.
(Soundbite of "Rumble")
NORRIS: It was so rebellious that some radio stations wouldn't play it. Yet the Link Wray sound continued to influence just about every generation of rockers that followed. Link Wray died on November 5th. His birthday isn't exactly clear, but he was in his 70s. His family said simply, `His heart got tired.'
(Soundbite of "Rumble")

Here are five ways you can get your yogasm back.
1. Get pregnant. Just kidding, well sort of. I'm not actually suggesting that if you've lost your yoga drive, then you should go get pregnant. But, get this…you can't do any physical/aerobic activity for six weeks after you've given birth (this is the amount of time it takes for your uterus to shrink back down to size)! So if you're not in the market for a baby, just try taking six weeks off. I guarantee three weeks into your hiatus you will be itching to get back into your practice again. It took me about two weeks before I was willing to screw my uterus for a sun salutation (thankfully, I didn't).
2. Try a different style (this is not considered cheating). Two things can happen here: 1. You might find a style of yoga that appeals more to you then the style you had been practicing, or 2. You might dislike (dare I say 'hate') the new style so much, that it drives you right back into the open arms of your original beloved. How romantic!
3. Change up the music. If you practice at home this will be easy. If you normally listen to traditional music, maybe throw in a rap song. You never know what kind of mind-blowing effect a little L.L. Cool J can have on a girl…or boy!
4. Set a challenge pose. If you're trying to spice up your sex life, some may try kama sutra…this is the same idea, but you probably won't be naked. Instead of just sticking to the poses that they practice in class, or that you practice at home, find a pose that you have never tried before. Yoga Journal's online site has an index of yoga poses that you can browse through, or just pick up a yoga magazine and you're bound to find one that strikes your inner wonder. *Note: don't go crazy. Pick a pose that is beyond your limits, but not beyond your ability to practice.
5. Read a book, meditate, let your mind do the practicing. I feel many are brought out of their yoga lull by first falling back in lust with their physical practice. But don't underestimate the power of yoga as a way to live your daily life. Humans don't just rely on physical stimulation, but we require mental and spiritual stimulation as well. Get book suggestions from a teacher, fellow yogi, or the internet. Maybe try meditating, or writing, or talking with a friend.
If all else fails…Be present, be mindful, be you.

Trophy Hunter
A long-standing grudge and a devoted dad give Kevin Jones an edge in the Heisman race.
Updated: October 13, 2003, 12:06 PM ETBy Gene Wojciechowski | ESPN The Magazine
Every year, every yard has always been for someone else. For a stillborn brother. For an ailing grandma. And especially for the Penn State yahoos who wrote those hate-filled letters, the ones that began, "Dear N --." (By the way, the word wasn't "Nittany.") But this season, likely his last at Virginia Tech, Kevin Jones finally runs for himself.
Kevin Jones wants the Heisman. And he wants a chance to shake Paul Tagliabue's hand in April and stick it to anyone who ever doubted him. Kevin's dad, Thomas Jones, lives every day to make that happen. You should see them: the football prodigy and the self-taught track and strength coach.

About 300 nurses at Advocate Christ Medical Center and Advocate Childrens Hospital in Oak Lawn, Ill., were honored March 19 on Certified Nurses Day for earning national board certification during 2012. According to a news release, the number of board-certified nurses at the medical center increased to more than 1,100 — or nearly half of the estimated 2,300 nurses on staff.
Although final numbers for 2012 have not yet been announced, last years addition of several hundred nurses to the ranks of those who hold national certifications ensures that the medical center — in both its adult and childrens hospitals — continues to exceed the Magnet benchmarks for advanced nursing education, Wendy Tuzik Micek, RN, PhD, NEA-BC, director of nursing science and Magnet program director for Christ Medical Center and Advocate Childrens Hospital, said in the release.
According to the release, 43% of direct-care nurses at Christ Medical Center and Advocate Childrens Hospital were nationally board-certified in 2011.
"Board certification plays a significant role in assuring our patients and their families that they will receive the highest standards of nursing care," Lynn Hennessy RN, MS, MBA, NEA-BC, vice president for nursing services and chief nursing executive at Christ Medical Center, said in the release.
"Our commitment to advanced nursing education and the expectation that our nurses will continue to advance in their specialty training are among the reasons why we are a Magnet-designated center."

Really not a bad mountain for being in MA. For me I go there often due to it being the closest mountain for me to ride. About an 1 hour and 15 min away. Its a good mountain to take friends that are just learning, a very good mountain to build confidence on and get comftable. Here are some keys to enjoying this mountain. During the week 9am to 3pm its usually pretty dead and your able to have the mountain to yourself without any lift lines. At about 3:30 pm kids start to roll in like a heard. The place pretty much turns into a mall on a friday night, its pretty bad. Weekends after Christmas get really packed and lift lines are pretty long. The night riding is pretty good because they have just about the whole mountain lit up with very good lighting. After about 8pm the place turns into a ghost town and you'll have the whole place to your self till 10pm. Its not a very challenging mountain at all. I have to also say that the staff that works the lift lines are extreamly rude!!!! I'm sure some of this is due to them having to deal with all the kids and teens that take over the whole mountain. Tickets are expensive for such a small mountain. And they don't make as much snow as they should, when things get very icy the really don't try to fresh up the trails at all. To put it in a nut shell if this resort wasn't the nearest for me to go I would never really go there!!! On a powder day when its dumping out and everyone is affraid to drive in the snow the place is pretty quiet and very fun. They do groom twice a day which is a positive.

Is it possible to show the count beside each taxonomy term? I've been trying hard to modify the plugin code to show the count, and even use the get_the_term_list function directly, but I can't figure it out. I'm wondering if it might not be possible to show the term count as long as we're using the get_the_term_list and get_term function? If this is the case, then this would stop another search of mine, from a previous forum post, where I'm looking to restrict the terms to those with a count > 1.
Is this the case, does anyone know?

I am using an Hp compaq6000 pc, recently i discovered while working on the system i often encounter lockup(freeze), especialy when an external device like a flash drive is slot in.What could be the possible caused of this problem?
Unless this is a new machine, I would take a guess on it possibly crashing due to age of machine, and only noticing/coincidence that it happens with USB devices.
Alternatively, Lockups without Bluescreens/similar are usually down to hardware failure - this could be memory/hard drive loosing connection or similar. If you can, check that all cables/connections are in properly and consider reseating the memory.
For the last, it could be inserting a USB stick is jogging the board which causes these problems.
I fear it won't but I hope this helps.
If it is a new machine, all I can suggest is try to update drivers - in particular motherboard/chipset as it is possible you have a dodgy USB controller.

MUMBAI Pantaloon Retail PART.NS and Future Ventures India FVIL.NS will demerge their fashion businesses into a new listed unit that will simplify the businesses into three main segments, the two companies said late on Friday.
Under the restructuring, all fashion brands, currently held by Pantaloon Retail and group firm Future Ventures will be transferred to Future Fashion, along with debt of 12.26 billion rupees.
Pantaloon Retail shareholders will get one share of Future Fashions for every three held, while Future Ventures shareholders will get 2 shares of the new entity for every 31 held.
"We grew multiple formats in the early stages of our growth, and now as each one of them has become sizeable, we are giving them independence to propel their growth," Kishore Biyani, CEO of Future Group, said in the statement.
The company will also seek shareholder approval to raise 15 billion rupees through public or private offerings of shares.
Earlier this year, Aditya Birla Nuvo, part of the Aditya Birla conglomerate, agreed to buy a controlling stake in Pantaloons Format clothing brand and retail chain to help cut its debt. (Reporting by Prashant Mehra; Editing by Michael Perry)

Can't believe there isn't a official thread for this game. For those who played SR2, you know the goodness that is bound to come. Hands down, IMO, the best sandbox game of this generation.
Can't believe there isn't a official thread for this game. For those who played SR2, you know the goodness that is bound to come. Hands down, IMO, the best sandbox game of this generation.
I'd rather give that honour to Just Cause 2, but yes, loved Saints Row II to bits. Can't wait for this one, looks to be a major improvement. ^^
I'm with giving the prize to SR2 just because I never played Just Cause 2.
Either way, this is easily my most anticipated game this year. BF3 will be prettier, something will have a better story, something else will have better gameplay. But this is sure to be the FUNNEST game of the year.
I don't want to turn this into a versus thread, but I've played Just Cause 2(shit controls, shit controls everywhere ;p) and SR2 still keeps the title. But you're right, this is going to be the funnest game of the year no doubt.
The graphics look a lot better than they did in part two, along with everything else. Imma get this.
Just Cause 2 got old real fast after the main story was completed. Its open world was actually too big and without enough variety. I never did get the 75% complete achievement. Got up to about 60%, got bored and started playing something else.
SR3 hypest game
I saw your girl Emma in the Paper Man recently. Great movie, she did good.
Yeah, I loved the shit out of that movie. Her best performance so far and the best of the movie.
It really was great. I was floored.
You know, I didn't care for Saints Row 1 that much but I've been getting a little excited about The Third so I decided to borrow Saints Row 2 from a friend. I'm only about an hour or so into it and it's not a bad game but I just think I'm kind of over the sand-box game.
SR1 sucked in my opinion. It tried to hard to be a GTA clone. It wasn't until SR2 that they broke into their own thing, and the ridiculous activities came along, making it completely different.
I liked the first Saints Row more than any of the GTAs. The customization options were what made it great.
I bought Saints Row 2 mainly because I liked the first one, but yeah, thinking GTA IV sucked probably had something to do with it as well.
Trying to venture out into the forums outside of the Bar. This thread makes me happy. This game will make me happy. So fucking stoked.

Released: Apr 01st, 2008
Running Time: 109 Min.
Director: Jim Powers
Companies: JM Productions, Powersville, Inc.
Distribution Companies: JM Productions
DVD Extras: Bonus Scenes
Cast: Otto Bauer, Johnny Thrust (I), SinDee Jennings, Seth Dickens, Chelsea Rae, Dirty Harry, Cindy Crawford, Audrey Hollander
Non-sex Roles: Otto Bauer, Johnny Thrust (I), SinDee Jennings, Seth Dickens, Chelsea Rae, Dirty Harry, Cindy Crawford, Audrey Hollander
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Specialty
Specialty Type: Medical
This medical fetish title from Jim Powers is as bizarre as it is hilarious. Medical instruments are incorporated into each scene, all of which are set in hospitals.
Johnny Thrust maintains his role as a perverted gynecologist even as he probes Audrey Hollander's ass with his penis — just checking for fiber, of course. Sindee Jennings is a bedridden patient miraculously cured by a good dicking from Dr. Seth Dickens. Cindy Crawford fucks Dirty Harry, who is scary as a low-rent doctor "somewhere in Guatemala."
The final scene has Otto playing an aggressive doctor who gives Chelsea Rae what she needs, even if she protests it's not what she wants — she finally admits it is what she needs.
Retailing: Medical fetish movie for those with a taste for gutter humor.

Sometimes I want to deploy to another alternative repository (using

So I really don't want to package and test them again, because they are just succeeded. The result jars are just there, in the

I know there is
deploy:deploy-file, but that's inconvenient to use, I don't want to specify groupId, artifactId again on the command line. It doesn't work for large project which contains a lot of jars to deploy, too.

Prudential Names Rodriguez as Mexico Real Estate Chief
Prudential Financial Inc., the second-largest U.S. life insurer, hired Ezequiel Rodriguez to run real-estate operations in Mexico as the firm bolsters its presence in Latin America.
Rodriguez, 41, is based in Mexico City and reports to Alfonso Munk, head of Latin America at Prudential Real Estate Investors, the Newark, New Jersey-based insurer said today in a statement. He was a managing director at GIV Partners AG and UBS AG, and worked in Europe and Latin America, Prudential said.
Rodriguez's background "will be particularly helpful as we seek additional opportunities in Mexico and continue to grow the business in the country," Munk said in the statement.
Prudential is expanding in real estate to build fee income and back insurance polices. Its property firm manages $2.7 billion in assets in Latin America, according to the statement. The unit hired Morgan Stanley's Adriana Drulla Rossi in Brazil a year ago, and added Munk from the same company in 2012.
Economic growth in Latin America is projected to quicken to 2.9 percent this year and 3.3 percent in 2015, from 2.4 percent in 2013, according economists' forecasts compiled by Bloomberg.
Rodriguez has a degree in business administration from the University of Buenos Aires.

Falling Out of Time
Falling Out of Time
Knopf Publishing Group, Hardcover, 9780385350136, 193pp.
Publication Date: March 25, 2014
In "Falling Out of Time, "David Grossman has created a genre-defying drama part play, part prose, pure poetry to tell the story of bereaved parents setting out to reach their lost children. It begins in a small village, in a kitchen, where a man announces to his wife that he is leaving, embarking on a journey in search of their dead son. The man called simply Walking Man paces in ever-widening circles around the town. One after another, all manner of townsfolk fall into step with him (the Net-Mender, the Midwife, the Elderly Math Teacher, even the Duke), each enduring his or her own loss. The walkers raise questions of grief and bereavement: Can death be overcome by an intensity of speech or memory? Is it possible, even for a fleeting moment, to call to the dead and free them from their death? Grossman's answer to such questions is a hymn to these characters, who ultimately find solace and hope in their communal act of breaching death's hermetic separateness. For the reader, the solace is in their clamorous vitality, and in the gift of Grossman's storytelling a realm where loss is not merely an absence but a life force of its own.
Previously, he was an Associate Professor of Computer Science and the Director of the Information Retrieval Laboratory at the Illinois Institute of Technology. He was a Principal Investigator on several NSF grants that solely focused on improving the computer science undergraduate curriculum. He also chaired, for over 6 six years, the IIT Computer Science Undergraduate Studies Committee and led the department through two successful ABET reviews. He has taught computer science courses at all levels (freshman through PhD seminars) at IIT, the University of Maryland, George Washington University, and George Mason University.

The age of onset of liver cancer in children is related to tumor histology. Hepatoblastomas usually occur before the age of 3 years, and approximately 90% of malignant liver tumors in children aged 4 years and younger are hepatoblastomas.[8]
The incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in the United States is 0.8 in children between the ages of 0 and 14 years and 1.5 in adolescents aged 15 to 19 years per year per 1 million.[3] In several Asian countries, the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma in children is 10 times more than that in North America. The high incidence appears to be related to the incidence of perinatally acquired hepatitis B, which can be prevented in most cases by vaccination and administration of hepatitis B immune globulin to the newborn.[9]
The overall 5-year survival rate for children with hepatoblastoma is 70%.[10,11,12] Neonates with hepatoblastoma have comparable outcomes to older children up to age 5 years.[13] The overall 5-year survival rate is 42% for those with hepatocellular carcinoma.[3] The 5-year survival for hepatocellular carcinoma may be dependent on stage; in an Intergroup chemotherapy study conducted in the 1990s, seven of eight stage I patients survived and less than 10% of stage III and IV patients survived.[3,14]
Risk factors
Risk factors associated with hepatoblastoma and hepatocellular carcinoma are described in Table 1.
Table 1. Risk Factors Associated With Hepatoblastoma and Hepatocellular Carcinoma
|Associated Disorder
|Hepatocellular Carcinoma
|Aicardi syndrome[15]
|Alagille syndrome[16]
|Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome[17,18]
|Familial adenomatous polyposis[19,20,21]
|Glycogen storage diseases I-IV[22]
|Hepatitis B and C[23,24,25]
|Low-birth-weight infants[5,6,7,26]
|Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis[27,28]
|Trisomy 18, other trisomies[29]
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome and hemihyperplasia
The incidence of hepatoblastoma is increased 1,000-fold to 10,000-fold in infants and children with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome.[17,18] Hepatoblastoma is also increased in hemihypertrophy, now termed hemihyperplasia, a condition that results in asymmetry between the right and left side of the body when a body part grows faster than normal.[31,32]

A sampling or two: a lady with a one piece bathing suit, tan (unusual), and with small tits sucks a gent's huge dick and embarks on an aggressive, highly physical fuck end-ing in a facial. A hard bodied blonde gives head on her knees, gets fucked standing, and then eases her lovely ass down on a cock for a reverse cowgirl and then missionary anal encounter. There's much more...

3.0 earthquake jostles East County
A magnitude 3.0 earthquake broke nine miles northeast of Julian at 5 p.m. on Saturday, causing brief and light shaking that was felt as far away as San Diego and Valley Center, says the US Geological Survey. The temblor started 7.1 miles deep, in Anza-Borrego Desert Start Park, just east of the Earthquake Valley fault, a roughly 15 mile long system that is capable of producing a 6.0 or larger quake, the USGS says. Scientists believe that there's typically less than an inch of slippage on the fault each year. Quakes like the one on Saturday rarely lead to larger events.
