Things Could Get Worse For Print Publishers
Over the past decade, as consumers and advertisers turned to digital media, U.S. print publishers have suffered a precipitous decline of advertising revenues. Newspaper ad spending in the United States peaked in 2000 and has since fallen more than 70 percent to a 50-year low if inflation is considered. Magazines have suffered a similar fate and, according to an analysis by Macquarie Capital, things could get even worse for print publishers.
Comparing the share of time spent with selected media to the respective medium's share of advertising expenditure reveals that print advertising revenues could drop another 70 percent, if it were to be proportionate to the time consumers spent with print media. On average, Americans only spend 4.6 percent of their media time reading newspapers or magazines, yet print still accounts for almost 20 percent of total media ad spending.
The opposite holds true for mobile: Americans spend 19.9 percent of their media time on mobile devices, yet mobile advertising only accounts for 4.3 percent of total ad spend.
If the numbers at hand are any indication for the future growth of advertising mediums, mobile advertising is about to take off. For newspapers and magazines however, the worst may be yet to come.

Flier of the Week: Rocket at Detroit Bar
This flier isn't especially innovative, following in the same vein as most Detroit Bar fliers, but it does its job more than adequately: getting you interested in the show.
Look at this crew. These are the type of folks I want to spend an evening with, for the fashion alone. Blue hair? Very nice. Prep school vest? Mmhmm. Sailor hat and polka dot dress? Oh heck yes.
It looks so promising, in fact, that it motivated me to check out Rocket's MySpace, where I was pleased to find out that their music matches their colorful sartorial choices, like The Runaways meets...uh, slightly later Runaways. I've been a sucker for spunky girl (or mostly girl) groups, both fictional and real since reading Josie and the Pussycats comics as a young lad. Though Rocket appears to be reliant on some tiresome Donnas-esque gimmickry (they all have the same stage last name, Rocket), it's enough to convince me that it'd be a fun night worth six bucks. And yes, I realize the inherent hypocrisy of complaining about gimmicks one sentence after proclaiming myself as a fan of a cartoon band that wears cat outfits.
The band hails from Echo Park, a neighborhood in LA that's clearly a breeding ground for girl groups - Doug Wallen reviewed, quite favorably, Echo Park's Hearts of Palm UK's "For Life" album in this week's Weekly.

After great consideration, more than a little consternation and considerable procrastination, I finally took the leap last week: I was going to buy American Capital Agency (NASDAQ:AGNC) and Annaly Capital Management (NYSE:NLY), the two most-discussed mREITs here on Seeking Alpha.
Before going to bed Thursday, I placed limit orders for both companies. By Friday morning, my gut was telling me AGNC, NLY and other mREITs didn't belong in the Dividend Growth portfolio I was painstakingly building. So I went to my brokerage Web site and canceled the orders.
It was a 180-degree flip-flop that would do any politician proud. What the heck happened?
AGNC and NLY seem to have almost cult-like followings on Seeking Alpha. I fully understand the attraction, with American Capital yielding about 15 percent and Annaly 13 percent.
Fed chairman Ben Bernanke has pledged to keep interest rates at record lows for two more years, and mortgage REITs thrive in low-rate environments. Having adopted the DG strategy less than a year ago, I am still in the accumulation phase and about 25 percent of my portfolio is in cash. As I patiently research potential long-term holdings, why not put more money to work in popular mREITs such as AGNC and NLY?
Yes, combined with the many SA authors who champion mREITs, I was doing a pretty good job of talking myself into buying them.
Then I started thinking about why I adopted Dividend Growth as an investing strategy. I want stable, proven, high-quality companies that have raised dividends for years and figure to keep doing so for decades. On top of a current portfolio yield of about 4 percent, I want dividends that will beat inflation. When my wife and I are retired, I want that reliable, growing, inflation-beating dividend stream to complement monthly Social Security and pension checks, giving us predictable, dependable retirement income.
The 22 companies I've chosen so far -- most of which I discussed in this article -- might not be idiot-proof, but they're pretty close.
I don't have to keep very close tabs on Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG), 3M (NYSE:MMM) and Coca-Cola (NYSE:KO), iconic companies that have raised dividends for 56, 54 and 50 years, respectively. Even my higher yielders, such as ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP), Linn Energy (LINE) and National Retail Properties (NYSE:NNN), seem significantly more solid and "buy-and-holdish" than AGNC and NLY.
What am I giving up by not buying American Capital, Annaly and other mREITs? While it's true that I wouldn't lose much money in a worst-case scenario, it's equally true that I wouldn't gain much in dividends.
Let's say I have a $1 million portfolio -- sadly, I don't -- and I invest $10,000 each in AGNC and NLY. The most I would lose if both collapsed tomorrow would be $20,000, or 2 percent of my portfolio. (And it's far more likely that I would bail well before I'd lose anything close to that.) Big deal, right?
OK, now let's say both companies stay healthy and their yields remain at present levels. Over two years, I'd earn about $6,000 before selling the stocks in anticipation of a Fed rate hike. Although six grand is nothing to sneeze at, it seems pretty insubstantial as part of a million-dollar portfolio.
It's the whole risk-reward thing ... and I decided that for me (even without the million-dollar portfolio), the reward wasn't worth the risk.
Maybe I'll change my mind someday, but I decided I don't need ultra-high-yielders to meet my goals. I decided my interest in mREITs felt too much like I was following the herd. I decided it's no sin to be cash-heavy while waiting for opportunities to buy proven companies at attractive prices. I decided mREIT transactions felt too much like trades and not enough like investments, and I don't want to be a trader.
While I wish nothing but good fortune to American Capital and Annaly loyalists, I will sleep better at night by keeping my portfolio mREIT-free.

Song of love…
…is the secret of life
It is the real meaning… and beauty of each strife!
Song of love…

Which guide and leads us… in each 'n every role!

Which makes every mother's touch so gentle so mild!

We love the acid bite of raw tomatillos in this quick, uncooked sauce. Use it to counter rich, creamy dishes like tamales, or with any simply grilled fish. (See the book for information about tomatillos, the green fruit that resembles a tomato.)
This salsa keeps in the refrigerator, in a covered container, for about 3 days.
Special tool: Blender or food processor
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Yield: 2 cups
3/4 pound tomatillos, stemmed, husked,
the stem scar cut out, and cut into quarters
3 serrano chiles, stemmed,
seeded, and coarsely chopped
1/3 cup cold water
1 bunch scallions, white and light green
parts, coarsely chopped (about l cup)
1 large bunch cilantro leaves and
tender stems, roughly chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
Place the tomatillos, chiles, and water in a blender or food processor. purée just until chunky. Add the scallions, cilantro, and salt and purée about 2 minutes longer, or until no large chunks remain.
For a mellower version of tomatillo salsa, try roasting the tomatillos, chiles, and scallions under the broiler until blackened, about 5 minutes. Then place the roasted items in a blender or food processor with the remaining ingredients and purée.

We are 23 days in, only a week to go in this series on changing the world. I had a rough idea, when I began, of where I wanted to head. But it has surprised even me that the further we get into thinking about changing the world, the more compelled I am to be quiet. To still. To slow. To pray. To believe. I do not think that is just by chance. So join me, if you will, on this late Sunday – consider God, believe in his goodness, trust him to move, and be still.
change the world {day 8} :: be encouraged
May you know without doubt or shadow that life is found as you live it, and may these words from friends and family be used to encourage, inspire, and move you to change the world.

But this video, Ann's message – these words and images will remind us to live fully awake. And then perhaps our influence will be on purpose rather than by default. Watch and be reminded?

31 Days of Grace :: {day 31} recommended resources
It is certainly hard to believe that today is the last day of October. When this series began, I invited you here everyday in October, to come with open hands, a willing heart, and a soul ready to breathe in sweet grace. From the comments and emails I've received, it seems you have done just that. I hope that is true for those of you I haven't heard from.
As promised, I wanted to close out this series with a list of some recommended resources for further study, if you feel so inclined. This list is in no way exhaustive, and I may add to it as more come to mind.
Over the last 10 years or so, The Man and I have found some books that we keep going back to. A bit of a warning, we can be a little geeky and theology-ish when it comes to this subject. As in, we listen to sermons on tape (yes, tape) and we read books written by people who have been dead for a while and we have notebooks filled with scribbles and scrabbles on grace. We talk about the doctrine of grace a lot, about the finished work of Christ and other things that may not be super user-friendly language. So some of the books I suggest may reflect that. Just so you know.
non-fiction books
The Christian's Secret of a Happy Life by Hannah Whittal Smith :: Because it was originally published in 1875, it is now part of the public domain and you can read it here. It is fantastic.
The Saving Life of Christ by Major Ian Thomas
The Normal Christian Life by Watchman Nee
Families Where Grace is in Place by Jeff VanVonderan :: a well-worn favorite. I've linked to the updated version with study guides for families and small groups.
Loving Our Kids on Purpose by Danny Silk :: he also has a series of talks on CD that is kind of the book on tape but not exactly. I've not read the book, but I've listened to the talks. Very good.
Breaking the Rules by Fil Anderson :: a family friend, Fil has an easy-to-listen-to voice and a great story of how he learned grace after a lifetime of religion.
Grace Works by Dudley Hall :: if you are a good girl or grew up thinking you had to be perfect, this could be a book you might relate to. This was one that loosened up some of my rigid religion when I was in my early twenties.
Jesus Calling by Sarah Young :: a 365 day devotional. You already have this one though, right? Essential.
What God Wishes Christians Knew About Christianity by Bill Gillham
. . . and coming Fall 2011 My Almost-But-Not-Yet-Titled Book :: again, for all you girls out there who are tired of living a try-hard life, this (I very much hope) wil be a grace offering to you. More to come on that.
. . . and a few I've not read yet but heard are good
Gracenomics: Unleash the Power of Second Chance Living by Mike Foster
The Naked Gospel by Andrew Farley :: we have this one, and I've thumbed through. Really cool cover.
The Grace of God by Andy Stanley :: you can read about the book on Michael Hyatt's blog.
fiction books
Redeeming Love by Francine Rivers :: based on the story of Hosea and Gomer. A beautiful, captivating read.
The Defiance Texas Trilogy by Mary E. DeMuth :: Mary confronts difficult issues in this beautifully written 3-book series, issues that have grace and redemption weaved throughout.
"It is extraordinarily powerful. It is often extraordinarily slow. Fear works quicker. But fear erodes relationships. Grace is like a crock pot." – Andy Stanley, on grace from the Michael Hyatt interview

Are there resources you have discovered on this topic of grace? Please, share them with us in the comments – title only – if you leave a link, it will go to spam. I have had so much fun writing this month. Tomorrow I'll share a bit of the behind-the-scenes about that. Or maybe I'll wait til the next day !! And again, thank you for joining me for 31 Days of Grace.
31 Days of Grace :: {day 30} in your eyes
On Tuesday, you linked up photos of grace. Today, you get to use words. Somehow in the last 30 days, I haven't yet run out of words to say about grace. I've talked about what it is and what it isn't, what it feels like, what it looks like, and why it can be hard to give and receive. I've talked about grace in marriage, in parenting, and grace for when you don't feel graceful at all.
But today is not my turn. Today is your turn. What have you learned about grace? What does grace feel like to you? What difference has the presence of grace made in your life? Or perhaps, the lack? I look forward to hearing your stories, seeing more photos, and learning more of what grace means to you personally. When linking your post, remember to use the permalink rather than your blog's main page.
To those of you who may wish to link up but have never linked up before, I want to extend a special invitation to you. It doesn't have to be perfect, eloquent, or succinct. It just has to be authentic. If you are scared of linking wrong, just know you cannot break the internets. There is much grace here. Thank you in advance for your words and creativity.
31 Days of Grace :: {day 29} for when you are offended
From the woman at grocery store who looks at me funny because I let my kid eat two cookies in the cart, to the Maker of the Universe who invites me simply to come and be while I insist on all the things I need to go and do. From the girl who didn't mean anything by it when she inadvertently insults me, to the child who needs me at the most inconvenient times.
Defending yourself can become a full-time job, one that takes up brain-space at work, in your car, on the weekends, at the grocery store. You may find yourself explaining the actions of this ungracious person to your spouse, your bff, your sister, your mom or anyone else who will listen. I only know this because I have done this.
During those moments where everything, everything in you says to defend yourself, I find it the most difficult to either receive or extend grace. Normally it's because in every insult, there seems a bit of truth. And so I fear, and then I lash out. I want to defend, protect, take care, and make my case. Everything in me says that is okay – everything, that is, except one small voice that speaks gently, softly, inviting me to receive my identity from a different source. When I am offended, it is often because I was looking for acceptance from someone, and they did not offer it. Not always, but nearly always.
"My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." 2 Corinthians 12:9
As I said earlier this week, there will be another chance to link up to a post about grace on your own blogs. I will post the linky tomorrow, Saturday. Then on Sunday, I will share some useful-to-me resources I have found on grace. I hope you will join us for these final days of grace.

Firefighters control house fire on Willow Road in Menlo Park

How wonderful that there is still a firestation close by on Middlefield. What would be the added response time if it were closed?
a resident of Menlo Park: The Willows
on Mar 6, 2012 at 2:26 pm
The added response time would have been 1 minute or less. Engine 6 responded from downtown along with the middlefield crew. If the station were to be closed and relocated to flood park at Bay road, it would have added only 1 minute. Unbelievable to people who aren't familiar with fire protection strategy but a palo alto fire engine also responded, which would have put enough trucks on scene to competently control the situation. Also a redwood city battalion chief responded and a redwood city fire engine. This means the only gap of time that would have occurred would be 1 minute. Engine 6 from downtown also arrived only 23 seconds after the middlefield station's trucks, meaning there would be virtually no difference in response time. Hopefully I've answered your question.

|The need to know and the fear of knowing --
The perimenopause panic --
The menopause gateway --
|Gail Sheehy.
"All women face menopause, but, as Gail Sheehy so compellingly reveals in interviews with women from a broad spectrum of economic, ethnic, and racial backgrounds, the passage is seldom easy. Distracting symptoms, confusing medical advice, unsympathetic reactions from loved ones, and the scornful attitudes of society at large often make menopause a lonely and emotionally draining experience." "In this groundbreaking book, Sheehy sets out to erase the stigma of menopause and "render normalcy to a normal physical process." She writes frankly about her own experiences and uncovers the frustrations of other women who have long suffered in silence. She brings together the most current information from the United States and abroad and assesses women's options and risks. This is a book of candor and hope that places menopause within the cycle of life as "the gateway to a second adulthood."" "When portions of this book first appeared in Vanity Fair, the response was immediate and electrifying. For everyone who has experienced menopause--and the millions of women of the baby-boom generation who will soon face it--The Silent Passage is sure to become a touchstone."--Jacket.

Selected fares from Perth to Auckland
Prices found within past 7 days. Prices and availability subject to change. Additional terms may apply.
Flying out of Perth
Use ebookers to find great deals on flights from Perth. Perth Airport is the major airport serving the Perth area, seeing over twelve million passengers each year and being one of the busiest airports in the world. It hosts many domestic airlines, such as Jetstar, Qantas, and Skywest, and international carriers, such as United, US Airways, British Airways, and Air Canada. The international and domestic terminals are almost six miles apart, meaning the domestic terminals are about seven miles from Perth's city centre, while the international terminal is almost eleven miles from the city.
Where to Park
As the domestic terminals and the international terminal are so far apart, you will need to be sure you park in the correct lot to avoid a long walk or shuttle. Both the domestic terminals and the international terminal have long-term parking available at $55 for three days and $10 for each subsequent day. Over 3,500 parking spots are available in total, and a free shuttle is available to take to and between the terminals. You can also opt for the covered parking, which costs $120 for three days and $30 for each additional day.
How to Get There
Bus 37 runs from Kings Park, which is west of Perth's city centre, directly to the domestic terminals in around fifty-five minutes and costs $4 per ride. Though the bus does not run to the international terminal, a shuttle takes passengers between terminals. A taxi from Perth to the airport will cost you less than $40 plus a $2 fee. In addition, you can always use ebookers reserve a rental car to take you to the airport.
Where to Eat
If you are flying out of the international terminal, one of the best places to get a cup of coffee and a snack is Aromas. It carries an assortment of teas, coffee drinks, and baked goods. For a bigger meal, BLD offers delicious sandwiches and salads to curb your hunger. At the domestic terminals, be sure to check out Dome for your morning caffeine boost. It is beautifully designed and serves hand-roasted premium coffee. For lunch or dinner, grab a sandwich or wrap from Fresh Connections, which uses only the freshest ingredients, so you can fill up with a healthy meal before leaving Perth.
Travel to Auckland Airport
Auckland Airport is the busiest and largest airport in New Zealand. The airport is situated 13 miles from the centre of Auckland. The airport is the fourth busiest airport in Australasia and in 2011 it handled 6,213,479 passengers. In 2011 the airport was voted the world's 8th best airport in the World Airport Awards.
Auckland Airport has good public transport links with the city of Auckland. Buses run regularly between the city and the airport. There are also taxis and shuttles which can be either pre-booked or taken on the day.
Auckland is situated on the North Island and is one of the most multi-cultural of New Zealand's cities. It has a large Asian population as well as being the city with the largest Polynesian population in the world. New Zealand is famed the world over for its fantastic outdoor activities and despite being a sizeable city, Auckland can still offer visitors some thrilling adventures. The Sky Tower is 192 metres high offering fantastic views of Auckland and the surrounding area. Walking around the platform at the top of the tower is enough for most people but those who want a rush of adrenaline can try the Skyjump. Other attractions in the city include the harbour area where visitors can hire a yacht or simply stroll along and admire the many beautiful yachts. The area is also home to many restaurants and bars.

Older adults are at increased risk for cognitive decline following major surgeries with this having implications for neurodegenerative acceleration as well as post-operative and long-term care costs. Orthopedic replacement surgeries such as total knee replacement surgery have the highest rates of cognitive decline in older adults. This is alarming, for older adults are increasingly seeking joint replacement to reduce associated osteoarthritis pain and increase activity (i.e., quality of life). Unfortunately at present there ae no specific surgical or anesthetic mechanisms for post-operative cognitive dysfunction. Results from our NIA funded pilot training grant, however, show preliminary evidence demonstrating that patients'pre-surgical brain integrity is an important indicator for post-operative outcome. We now seek to acquire definitive evidence for these markers using a larger sample size and also explore the interaction between pre-operative neuronal integrity and specific perioperative variables (e.g., anesthesia depth, emboli number).
Aim 1 is to examine the integrity of the white matter regions connecting the frontal to subcortical structures and the hypothesis that patients with less deep white matter integrity will be vulnerable to post-operative executive decline. We further hypothesize that this disruption is driven by compromise to an important white matter circuit connecting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to the caudate (subaim 1).
Aim 2 is to examine the integrity of the medial temporal structures to support the hypothesis that patients'with reduced pre-surgical hippocampal-entorhinal connectivity are vulnerable to post-operative memory decline.
In Aim 3, we explore which peri-operative variables (e.g., intraoperative emboli, embolic stroke, anesthesia duration) interact negatively with baseline neuroimaging variables.
These aims will be carried out by a multidisciplinary team with expertise in neuropsychology, geriatrics, dementia, post-operative cognitive dysfunction, anesthesiology, and orthopedic surgery. We will conduct a prospective longitudinal study with two groups: older adults (age >60 years) having total knee replacement (n=80) and non-surgery age and education matched peers with osteoarthritis (n=80). Both groups will acquire baseline MRI using sophisticated diffusion and functional measures to define specific neuronal regions of interest, and complete cognitive testing at a pre-surgery/baseline time point followed by repeat testing at three weeks, three-months, and one-year post-operative/post-baseline. Participants will also acquire a repeat MRI 48 hours after their baseline scan to identify changes in brain structure (i.e., embolic stroke). Overall, the study's findings will bring us closer to understanding neural mechanisms for post- operative cognitive dysfunction, will help argue for basic pre-operative MRI screening for certain older adults, and assist us in the development of intra-operative interventions for patients with neuronal vulnerabilities.
Older adults are at increased risk for experiencing acute and long-term cognitive after major non-cardiac surgery such as total knee replacement. Other than the effect of age alone, there are no known mechanisms for this risk. This is alarming, for post operative cognitive dysfunction represents a form of un-necessary cognitive decline that may accelerate neurodegenerative processes. Our team will use sophisticated methodological approaches to assess hypotheses regarding the predictive value of presurgery neuroimaging biomarkers on type of post-operative cognitive decline after total knee replacement. Patients (n=160) and non- surgery peers (n=80) will be assessed in a longitudinal study examining neuroimaging predictors of change at three-weeks, three-months, and one-year post surgery/post baseline. The long-term goals of our team are to 1) identify preoperative variables that increase risk for acute and irreversible cognitive decline after surgery and 2) use this information to design peri-operative interventions for patients with specific neuronal risk profile.

Say adieu to Marsee Bakery building
Two downtown buildings were demolished Tuesday to make way for the new Pollock Commercial Building at the intersection of A Avenue and Fourth Street.
The Marsee Bakery building and the Lake Oswego One Hour Cleaners were both demolished. Traffic and parking restrictions in the vicinity of the project are expected in coming months.
Ultimately, the site will house a three-story building with two parking levels underneath. Buena Vista Homes, owned by local developer Roger Pollock, will occupy a portion of the office space. Street-level retail shops will occupy the first floor.
Locals should expect to see areas of Fourth Street closed during construction, expected to take about 18 months, and parking restrictions on A Avenue and Fourth Street.
The sidewalk along A Avenue will be re-routed using the parking strip on the south side of A Avenue during this time.
The entrance to the alleyway between Fourth and Fifth streets will also be closed.

As brought up in jsr356-experts:
What makes up a valid websocket path spec variable name?
Some examples of bad path specs with variable names present:
1) "/a/{var/b}
" - path segment separator in variable name
2) "/a/
" - use of glob character not allowed in variable name.
3) "/a/{}" - no variable name declared
4) "/a/{---}" - no alpha variable name declared
5) "/a/
" - spaces not allowed
Example #1, it could be allowed as a funky variable named "var/b", but is this something we should alert the user of as a possible typo?
Example #2, it could also be allowed as a funky variable named "var*", again, this should probably be alerted to the user as bad form.
Example #3 has no variable name, it should just be forbidden
Example #8, it could also be a funky variable named "---".
Should we restrict the allowable variable names to conform to some sort of limited scope of characters? Say regex "[a-zA-Z0-9._-]*" ?
It was brought up that RFC 6570 already provides some suitable limits for variable names.
Looks like Section 2.3. Variables has the details.
Looks like it would allow for pct-encoded (Section 1.5) in varname.
Sounds reasonable.
To translate what I see.
varchar = (ALPHA / DIGIT / "_" / pct-encoded)
varname = varchar *( ["."] varchar)
So that would make the following Good Variable names.{a} {ab} {a.b} {a_b} {alpha.beta} {Answer_42}
{_}{1_000_000} {%40ClientEndpoint}
and the following would be Bad Variable names.{a b} {a..b} {alpha } { beta} {1,000,000}
The direction of RFC 6570 seems like a good start, but some of the things it seems to allow might complicate things.
The limits from RFC6570 seem reasonable to me. Which ones do you think could be problematic?
Hey there,
We are using level-1 templates only (e.g. see the spec document section 4.1.1). RFC6570 makes an unambiguous definition of what the legal characters are there.
Let me know if there are any ambiguities in the RFC6570 definition - Danny
RFC6570 has only 1 ambiguous part with how it relates to our JSR.
Section 2.3 - Variables
variable-list = varspec *( "," varspec )
varspec = varname [ modifier-level4 ]
varname = varchar *( ["."] varchar )
varchar = ALPHA / DIGIT / "_" / pct-encoded
So that means, to the JSR, that @ServerEndpoint("/fruit/%40Type") would be allowed.
(My reading of level-1 variable names would be what 'varname' is defined like above)
However, when the @PathParam matching it up to the variable is concerned, do we follow the same 'varname' syntax as well? (this is not specified in section 4.3 of our JSR)
The declaration could be either @PathParam("%40Type") (leaving 'pct-encoded' alone)
or @PathParam("@Type") (decoded form of the pct-encoded)

A cage fighter who helped plan Britain's largest ever cash robbery was jailed for 18 years today after admitting his role in the plot.
Paul Allen was the trusted lieutenant of Lee "Lightning" Murray, who masterminded the £53m robbery at the Securitas depot in Tonbridge, Kent.
After the hold-up in February 2006, Allen fled to Morocco with Murray, a fellow cage fighter.
The pair began enjoying a cocaine-fuelled party lifestyle in the sun, buying sumptuously-furnished villas and expensive cars.
Thousands of pounds were also spent on breast enhancement operations in England for wives and girlfriends of the men, according to court documents.
They thought they were living out their dreams, but after four months they were seized by Moroccan authorities and locked up in the rat-infested "hell hole" of Rabat prison.
Allen, an aggressive and powerfully-built, steroid-pumping fitness fanatic, spent 20 months in the jail before he was brought back to Britain to face trial.
The father-of-three claimed he knew nothing about the robbery and jurors were unable to reach a verdict after a first trial at the Old Bailey.
But Allen, 31, of Chatham, Kent, admitted charges of conspiracy to rob, kidnap and possess firearms as a re-trial was due to begin at Woolwich Crown Court.
He pleaded guilty on the basis that he was not one of the robbers who entered the depot, or one of the kidnappers, and that he did not handle any firearms.
The basis of plea also maintained that he was doing the bidding of Murray and his only benefit was the property in Morocco.
Murray, said to have been the mastermind behind the robbery, will not face British justice.
The 30-year-old, from Sidcup, south east London, claimed nationality in Morocco because his father was born there and authorities in the north African country turned down an extradition request, although he remains behind bars.
Murray, a Ferrari-driving martial arts star, masterminded the Securitas heist just five months after he was nearly killed in a knife attack outside a star-studded West End party.
Police have recovered £21m of the cash haul and are still hunting for the rest, with recent inquiries focusing on a country in the Middle East.
The robbery was planned and executed with military precision. Depot manager Colin Dixon, his wife and young child were kidnapped to allow the gang to gain entry, and 14 staff members were terrorised and tied up at gunpoint as the robbers stuffed cash into a 7.5-ton lorry in the 66-minute raid.
Plans are under way to make a Hollywood film about the robbery.
Kick boxer Lea Rusha, car salesman Stuart Royle, unemployed Albanian Jetmir Bucpapa and garage owner Roger Coutts were all jailed indefinitely last year with minimum terms of 15 years after being convicted of taking part.
Inside man Emir Hysenaj, an Albanian, who filmed inside the depot using a miniature camera, was given 20 years.
Passing sentence, Judge David Penry-Davey said the robbery was "meticulously prepared and ruthlessly executed".
He said: "The plot included from an early stage the kidnapping and holding hostage of Colin Dixon, his wife and young child, who, under threat of lethal violence, gave access to the depot and unimaginable amounts of cash."
The judge said the staff caught up in the daring robbery suffered long-term effects and the gang was limited to stealing £53 million only because of the size of the vehicle that could be taken into the depot.
He said: "This was, as I said previously, organised banditry for uniquely high stakes."
Addressing Allen's role in the conspiracy, Mr Justice Penry-Davey said: "It is clear that as a long-term friend and associate of Murray and with knowledge of what was being planned, you played an active part in various aspects of the preparations for the raid."
Amid tight security, Allen's friends and family watched from the public gallery as he was jailed.
Earlier, the court heard that the group stole "substantial sums" to live in comfortable wealth for the rest of their lives.
Prosecutor Mark Dennis QC said: "Murray was a somewhat flamboyant figure in contrast to the defendant. In many ways he was a quiet and perhaps supporting character for Murray, who worked with and for him over the years, helping him with his training and doing his bidding."
Mr Dennis went on: "This was an audacious robbery in which those involved in carrying out and planning and supporting roles were clearly playing for high stakes."
Allen's defence team maintained that he was a "corner man" for Murray and played only a minor role in the conspirarcy.
Defending, Ian Glen QC said: "For several months this defendant enjoyed the high life in Morocco but it was still very much a question of the boss and the corner man."
Allen's wife was now forced to live on benefits, the court heard.
Mr Glen added: "Nothing that he did was vital to the conspiracy. It was the sort of errands you would expect for somebody who was still working as the driver and corner man for Lee Murray."
Speaking outside Woolwich Crown Court, Kent Police chief constable Michael Fuller said: "I am pleased Paul Allen has acknowledged his guilt and involvement in this crime. We were always confident he played a key and pivotal role in carrying out this crime and he's been rightly convicted.
"I am pleased with the outcome and sentence. What he has avoided is the witnesses and victims in this case going through another harrowing ordeal.
"They have already had to recount their horrific experiences twice and had this trial gone ahead, they would have had to recount their experiences a third time."
He added: "This has been a fantastic investigation. We arrested some 54 people, charged 13 and convicted six. We've recovered £21 million now and that amount has increased since the frenetic two weeks of activity when we were able to recover £20 million in 13 separate recoveries.
"I just think the result and conviction is testament to the hard work of the investigation team, who have been highly professional."
He said: "This was a violent crime carried out by violent people. The criminals involved should not be glamorised.
"They are quite clearly violent individuals who have been convicted. The courts have realised this and they have been properly brought to justice."

At a great location near the lake there is this great Sicilian confectionery. You can eat different brioches (sweet croissant with or without jam) and with fantastic Italian coffee. The prices for this location an quality are very fair.
Two Sicilian bakeries across from each other. Very good gelato. Excellent thick yummy cappuccino & desserts. They sell confetti $20 kilo. Staff is very nice. Tried both bakeries and both were very good. Get the cannoli.
Brioche and cappuccino. There is only one place in Como and it is here. Cakes are great and they do a great aperitifs. Parking is a challenge.
Great pastries, great coffee and all of that in a typical italian setting. Small terrace in the midst of hectic traffic!
What I love about this place is that it's not a touristic café - instead, this is authentic pasticceria with fresh homemade pastry and mouthwatering snacks with ham, cheese and vegetables, far more delicious and healthy than regular sandwiches. Coffee is served in truly Italian style, and all this for a fraction of what you'd expect to pay in other...
If you are looking for a good "Cannolo Siciliano" or a "Cassata" you cannot fail: ask them to give you one done at the moment and you will be delighted!
Also good for appetizers while resting after a lage walk.
I usually go there to have a coffee, I believe it's one of the best cafes in Como.
Usually in warm days, there are seats outside, which I love them.
If you want authentic pastries this is the place.
The food is great. Good coffee, great service.
Right opposite the station as well!
I visit here every time I am in Como and it never fails.
The place is spotless, the food excellent and the staff friendly.
The pastries are amazing - I have never eaten such amazing food!!
what a wonderful surprise :-)
we found great and biggest pastries, excellent coffee and optimum service
Great service from the staff.

Dubbed the "Italy" despite its lack of the Italian tricolor's green – an aesthetic echoed by the Azzurri of Italy's national sports teams thanks to the Savoia monarchy – Reebok presents a patriotic, retro edition of its Classic Leather. Eschewing the usual leather construction in favor of a predominately suede upper of both the long- and short-grain variety, the kicks pair grey with blue throughout the upper while red details provide a hit of contrast. Furthermore, retro details abound in the form of off-white leather vector branding, a yellowed midsole, and a nylon tongue with exposed foam. The Reebok Classic Leather Retro Suede "Italy" is now available via the UK's End Clothing for £55 GBP (approximately $85 USD).

I don't get what she did so wrong to this guy who posted it. Karma sucks ya know, yeah she is hot to look at but still only a low life would do this. I get she took pictures and all but still you shouldn't have done this to her whoever you were. You could of at least stated why you posted these of her.

September 26, 2014 at 15:26 PM Logik says: The legal age on consent in Arkansas is 16 bro. In the state of Arkansas anyone 16 or older is considered an adult in regards to sexuality or sexual images. It's disgusting, but true. - Logik December 12, 2014 at 18:42 PM Old friend says: This hoe was NOT underage. She's just a hoe & sends nasty pics to every dude who gives her a bit of attention. Bitch is sure enough well into her 20's & sends filthy vids to every dude, too.
