It's good to be a LWD.
(submitted by Elizabeth)
It's good to be a LWD.
(submitted by Elizabeth)
They make me think of The Kardashians.
Huh. Wasn't this the latest add for Desperate Housewives or something?
They look like the cast of a soap opera.
That's what I was just thinking. Especially a night-time soap opera from the 80s.
This photo just doesn't fit with the usual 'Awkward Family Photos' format. I guess I'm just not gettin' the whole awkward part of this photo…
The daughter is very attractive i think !
The dogs are cute, but that's the scariest Stepford Family I've ever seen!
is this megan g.? i think i know her
Who's the blonde? Isn't she an actress? I KNOW her from somewhere….
That Little White Dress sure looks good on that Little Pretty Girl
AWESOME. But then again, we have a LWD, too, so I might be biased.
maybe someone should have groomed the daughter with a dress that would cover her backside.
Check out those puppies!
On the right – smoking.
Must also add, it looks like dad did not get the memo to wear ivory NOT white. Mom and daughter look annoyed. ;p
LWD= Little White Dog??
Or in case of the girl on the right: Little White Dress. Emphasis on LITTLE.
I must be getting old. I see no problem with this picture.
I agree, I don't see the awkwardness. I guess I'll have to go find my glasses.
And "because I SAID SO!"….just for good measure….teehee
Well, aside from the man's off-smile, I think they'd all look better in separate photos with more contrast.
I think they're trying to be a bit too sexy for a family picture with the pets. I say very awkward.
I keep getting in trouble for saying this, so I will try once more. If nothing else the awkwardness of a dress that shows off more than just too much thigh is a problem. Also they dressed to match their dogs. AWKWARD!
Then please send in your photos!
what the heck is wrong with owners of LWD's?
Gotta ask…what's an "LWD"?
As LBD = Little Black Dress, my guess is in this case it is Little White Dress, or more likely, Little White Dog
Little White Dog, new, are you? Welcome 🙂 And I'm sure by the time this posts, there will 50 responses posted to your question, whereas right now, there's 0. That's because of the censor check before your comment gets published. Enjoy the fun!!
Yeah us AFP/AFPP veterans know all the terms. 🙂

The multi-faceted functions of skin are conferred by its unique three dimensional architecture made up of multiple modules interwoven into an integral organ. To function normally, the size, number, ratio and relative positions of each component have to be precisely regulated. Few studies have focused on how the complex pattern of the skin is built. Current management of severe skin injury has achieved the goal of saving patients'lives by growing a flat layer of epidermis and dermis over the wound. Life-saving as it may be, the replaced skin is composed of relatively simple flat epidermis and dermis and does not function in full due to the lack of skin appendages and key functional modules. Toward the long term objectives of regenerative medicine, we aspire to learn fundamental principles of skin organogenesis that we can apply to better wound healing/regeneration and tissue engineering. In the previous funding period, we focused on the morphogenesis of a single appendage. We now want to study the multi-faceted skin as a whole and to reveal the unifying framework of skin morphogenesis at multiple spatio-temporal scales. We propose to study how the key functional modules of skin are built and patterned. Based on our preliminary data, we postulate that the construction of skin structures occurs through a series of tissue interactions, each with distinct patterning behaviors, built layer by layer, module by module, leading to the integration of the skin as a whole. We choose to focus on three components critical to avian skin function: the feathers, muscles that connect feathers for functionality, and pigment that decorates feathers for communication. Each component represents a different category of patterning behavior in a hierarchical framework. We will study how the boundary between appendage primordia and surrounding dermis is consolidated and hypothesize that "periodic patterning", the most fundamental process of skin organogenesis, is established via competition and stabilization of cell adhesion / motility. We will study how the dermal muscle network is established and hypothesize that this "adaptive patterning" is achieved using appendage primordia as anchor points. We will analyze how the final patterns are pleomorphic and how the process is modulated by environment factors. We will study how skin pigment patterns are "painted" by the "regulatory patterning" process. We hypothesize that it is achieved through combinatorial regulation of the migration, proliferation, survival, and / or differentiation of melanocyte progenitors. Similar principles may be used in the patterning of other tissue components. Understanding these patterning behaviors will allow us to apply the principles and initiate self-organizing regenerative processes in various skin disease conditions.
Here we study the patterning mechanisms involved in the development of the skin organ. They include periodic patterning to set up periodically arranged appendage primordia, adaptive patterning to add more components onto extant architecture and regulatory patterning to modulate cell migration or differentiation under physiological or pathological conditions. The study should provide new insights into how the different components are integrated to build a complex organ, and will be useful toward the tissue engineering of a fully functional skin.

Chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda on Wednesday said that he has asked power minister Capt Ajay Singh Yadav to reconsider his decision to resign from the council of ministers. "Wait till tomorrow. I am waiting for his response,'' he told mediapersons, who wanted to know whether the power minister will accede to his request.
Capt Yadav who had resigned as a minister on Tuesday had cited lopsided development, neglect of his constituency, discrimination in recruitments and his being completely sidelined as the reasons for quitting. He on Wednesday also met party in-charge for Haryana affairs Shakeel Ahmed.
When asked as to why his own party colleagues were antagonised with him, the chief minister said: "No one was annoyed because of me. They are just serving their vested interests. When people start conveying their annoyance near the polls, one can presume the motive,'' he said.
Asked to comment on allegations of regional bias in terms of development and jobs, the chief minister said that it was not the case. " If someone rakes this issue after 10 years, one can very well understand the intentions,'' he said.
Replying to a query on the controversy over appointments in the State Information Commission and Right to Service Commission, the chief minister defended them by saying they were done absolutely legally and by following the procedure. On the controversy generated following exchange of text messages between chief secretary SC Choudhary and secretary, administrative reforms, Pradeep Kasni, the chief minister said the matter was between two friends. " I have got nothing to do with it,'' he said.
Hooda reiterated that he could consider contesting assembly election from Indri segment in Karnal. "I have an emotional connect with the area as I had studied at the Sainik School, Kunjpura. If all the 19 contenders and people of the area give their consent, I can consider contesting from Indri,'' he said.
Parti re-appointed media adviser to CM
Haryana government on Wednesday re-appointed Sunil Parti as additional media adviser to the chief minister. Parti who was once close to former minister Venod Sharma had resigned from the post during the Lok Sabha polls.

Well, When you import it into Flash, it will ask you to do this and that and then it will create a little flash media player that has play, pause, stop, and stuff like that.
HOWEVER: Could you post...
Depends on what you want.
It would be easier to do in plain HTML than in flash though.
ok. got em'. i'm working on it.
Yep. The shared object is better to use, than write directly with XML.
Yep. The 3D in sites like 2A is never done in Flash. However, I think a sketchup plugin for flash would be cool.
I just remembered that. :D
Thats one of the reseaons I upgraded from MX.
I'm for footers.
Even though I suck. :D
I don't know about that... It may function quite slowly.
Can't get anything. It needs the image xml file.
Nice avatar man! Wish I could do pixel art.
Here you go!
Sweet idea. Is this an open battle?
Flash 8 provides a FLV creator. Not sure about MX2004 though......

P/M = polycrystalline or moncrystalline
Area = area of solar module on a square foot basis. Usually corresponds with weight.
STC = standard testing conditions. Manufacturers internally test their own solar modules. STC specifies a temperature of 25°C (77 F), solar irradiance of 1000 W/m2 and an air mass 1.5 (AM1.5) spectrums.
PTC = PV USA Test Conditions.The PTC rating is an independent measure of a module's efficiency. PTC ratings are 1,000 watts/m2, 20 degrees ºC (68ºF), and wind speeds of 1 meter per second at 10 meters above ground level.
PTC/STC = this value represents the approximate energy output comparing the STC (name plated output) to the PTC tested conditions. In general, the higher the percentage the total energy output will be higher
Pwr Tol = power tolerance of solar modules, modules will perform based on tolerance value ± STC value

Tech Allies Lobby to Keep U.S. Rule From Fettering Security Research
Tools for finding software vulnerabilities and the exploits used to prove such vulnerabilities exist would become regulated as munitions. "It is all about the definition," he said. "There needs to be a differentiator between tools that are defensive and tools that are used for offensive purposes. Even then, there are tools that are offensive in nature, but are used for good." Moreover, another part of the rule would regulate the communication of information about vulnerabilities and exploits under the argument that knowledge is being exported. Such "deemed export" rules would require a company to have a license to allow their international research teams to collaborate, even with other company employees. For Synack, which works with researchers in 35 countries, such an export rule would make its business untenable, Kuhr said.Symantec, also a member, is concerned that any broad rules could add delays to its ability to respond to attacks and aid clients, Cheri F. McGuire, vice president of global government affairs and cyber-security policy with Symantec, stated in an online post. "While the rule is directed at companies that create or sell 'intrusion software' used to breach systems, its broad language will affect a wide array of legitimate cyber-security research and network penetration testing," she said. "As a global security company, with researchers based around the world, this regulation could require our American researchers to obtain a government license in order to have more than a cursory conversation about new security vulnerabilities with their co-workers overseas." Other companies may find themselves in legal jeopardy, if the regulations are not constructed to be very narrow, said Alan Cohn, an advisor of counsel for the law firm of Steptoe & Johnson LLP. "To define all software that aims to avoid detection by monitoring tools, as intrusion software, captures not only the types of tools that are intended for undesirable surveillance mechanism, but also tools intended for cyber-security and detection, to the point, that it becomes difficult to discern the nature of the software," he said. While a narrower rule could allay concerns in the U.S., CRC members do not plan to stop there. Wassenaar signatories meet in December for the next round of rule making and security companies aim to revise the original rule. "It is not that the policy goal is not laudable—keeping the surveillance tools out of the hands of human-rights abusers—but it is more that," Cohn said. "Because it was done without any input from industry or academia, it has created the problems that it has. Going back and taking a fresh look at this, now that there is a track record of experience, will hopefully give better results."
Security firms and technology firms have banded together, creating the Coalition for Responsible Cyber-security, to represent cyber-security professionals in a number of U.S. companies, including Ionic Security, FireEye, Synack, and WhiteHat.

If I passed,
Would you care,
With another,
Would you dare?
If I died,
Would you cry,
Would you ever,
See through my eyes?
Forever dead may I be,
Forever more you and me.
For we have a bond,
A great force,
For other sins,
No remorse.
I see you there,
Swagger along,
And oh what,
A beautiful charm.
Something pure,
So very bright,
I'm glad that you,
Have my sight.
Two have become,
One flesh,
Why yes,
We are blessed.
Not even death,
Can pull us apart,
For our passion is,
Than the start.

After 25 years of occupying a corner of the Scenic Regional Library in Pacific, the Meramec Valley Genealogical and Historical Society (MVGHS) is preparing to move to new quarters in city hall.
Mayor Herb Adams had identified the MVGHS as a city committee, with a mission to operate a family history center in Pacific and has appointed committee members.
The society has a collection of obituaries and local history stories that started in 1965 when Sue Reed became branch manager of the library and started clipping.
"I was always interested in local history," Reed said. "I wrote my first story about the old livery stable in Union while I was still in high school. Mr. C. J. Hanneken gave me the information."
At the Pacific library her clippings grew to create family histories on many local families. She also collected local history books and historical maps.
"I really started collecting seriously in 1975 when Eloise LeSaulnier and I did the book 'In Retrospect,' which was published in 1976," Reed said.
By the time the MVGHS was formed in 1987, her collection would fill two filing cabinets and about 20 boxes.
Reed secured permission from Ken Rohrbach, Scenic Regional Library assistant director, to house the collection in the library.
"The library was very good to us," Reed said. "They gave us one filing cabinet and helped us to buy another one."
Now the society has approximately 70 members. Every Tuesday morning from 10 a.m. to noon a group of volunteers gather at the library to clip obituaries and articles from local newspapers and file them alphabetically as a resource for family history researchers.
Members also have scoured old books and directories to add to the collection of names.
Things will change some when the society moves into its new glass-enclosed quarters off the front lobby of the city hall.
Technology will come to the forefront as society members load indexes from local history books, its family history archive and obituary collection into a program that will allow research to type a name into the computer and see a list of mentions of the family, event or institution in materials in the society archive.
In 1993, society members wrote manuscripts detailing the history of Pacific churches, schools and businesses. The manuscripts were collected in a soft cover book, "Memories," and sold as a fundraiser.
The organization typically meets every other month on the third Wednesday. The next meeting will be held on the third Tuesday of September at 10 a.m. at the Pacific Presbyterian Church service building.
Agenda items for that meeting include discussion on a smooth move to city hall and dedication of the King and Mary Adams monument in Resurrection Hill Cemetery.
Society officers are Patricia Sewell, president; Ruth Muehler, vice president; Therissa Schlemper, treasurer; Bebe Mackenzie secretary; Janet Daniel, curator; and Sally Guenther conservator.

2014 Honda Accord Hybrid Review and Road Test
Now and then you run into a car that just "fits". It's like finding a perfect shoe, or a comfy smoking jacket. Until now I have been keeping my secret love on the down-low for several reasons. First off, I've always thought having a "favorite car" tends to color one's judgment when comparing cars, so I try to avoid such statements. Secondly, my dalliance with my automotive flame was fleeting. As most of us know, one-night-stands rarely hold up to the scrutiny of a long-term relationship. And lastly, coming out as a hybrid-lover has been difficult. When folks ask me "what was the best car you drove in 2013?" and my answer is "the 2014 Accord Hybrid," they stare at me like I have three eyeballs. The Accord is the mid-size sedan least likely to offend. While some call the tall greenhouse and upright proportions boring, I found them to be elegant and restrained. Indeed the Accord's side profile reminds me a great deal of former Lexus products, a similarity that was shared by passengers during the week. Several passers by even confused the Accord with a Lexus ES. This is good news for Honda but bad news for Lexus. In many ways the Accord Hybrid shares more design themes with the Fisker Karma than a Toyota Prius. Up till now, mainstream hybrids used one of two systems, either an electro/mechanical power split device designed around a planetary gearset like the Ford, Toyota and GM Voltec hybrids, or they sandwich an electric motor between the engine and transmission (Honda, Kia/Hyundai, Mercedes, VW and everyone else). Honda went back to the drawing board and designed a true serial hybrid -- as long as you stay under 44 mph. Things start out on the drawing above with a 2.0L, 141 horsepower engine mated directly to a motor/generator that is capable of generating approximately 141 horsepower (Honda won't release details on certain drivetrain internals so that's an educated guess). Honda says this is the most thermodynamically efficient four-cylinder engine in production, a title I have no reason to doubt. Next we have a 166 horsepower, 226 lb-ft motor connected to the front wheels via a fixed gear ratio. Under 44 miles per hour, this is all you need to know about the system. The 166 horsepower motor powers the car alone, drawing power from either a 1.3 kWh lithium-ion battery pack, or the engine via the generator and the power control circuitry. Over 44 miles per hour, the system chooses one of two modes depending on which is most efficient at the time. The system can engage a clutch pack to directly connect the motor and generator units together allowing engine power to flow directly to the wheels via that fixed gear ratio, or it can keep operating in serial mode. With all the numbers tallied the Accord Hybrid is an easy winner. It is more expensive than the competition but that delta shrinks when you account for feature content. The delta becomes immaterial however when you look at our average fuel economy numbers of 47.8 MPG in the Accord and 30 to mid-30s in all of the competition (including that 47 MPG Fusion.) Honda's hybrid has the best road manners in the pack, the most composed ride, a comfy back seat and a quiet cabin. On my tally list, the Accord's driving dynamics, fuel economy, performance and comfort more than outweigh my complaints about the cruise control and dual-screen infotainment system. Being on the down-low, my former last word on the Accord was "The Accord may not be the best looking hybrid on sale, (for me that's still the Ford Fusion) but the Accord's simple lines and unexpectedly high fuel economy make the Honda a solid option. Being the gadget hound I am, I think I would still buy the Fusion, but only in the more expensive Titanium trim. If you're not looking that high up the food chain, the Accord Hybrid is quite simply the best fuel sipping mid-size anything. Prius included." But now I've decided it's time to come clean. I'd take the Hybrid Accord period. No exceptions, no hair splitting. Statistics powered by ChannelMeter http://channelmeter.com

Best Fake Tan: 16 To Faux A Perfect Post-Holiday Glow
Fake tans are back on the agenda - it's offish. Sure, we've had a few days of proper sun, but our pasty limbs aren't feeling ready for an outing - yet.
Even if you've had a little beach vacay, it's probably pretty much worn off since you've been back in the office and there's nothing wrong with boosting the colour as well as making it last. (Here's how to maintain a tan.)
Whether you've got a wedding and you want to bronze your fair skin, or you just feel like giving yourself a little glow to compete with the girls who've been away all summer, find the best fake tan for your skin type to look and feel summery and bare leg-ready.
Thankfully, fake tanning formulas are just getting better and better, and a gorgeous healthy all-year-round glow is a genuine possibility. Not only does it make you feel fresher and less like hibernating but it's not harming like those pesky UV rays. All in all, it's definitely worth it. ('It' being the application bother, slight after-scent and risk of turning your collars a rusty orange.)
How to apply fake tan? Our best fake tan tips are to apply it before bed, sleep in loose clothing you don't mind getting bronzed, and then washing it off in the morning to minimise that infamous biscuity smell. (Hashtag fake tan problems.) And don't forget the mitt to avoid that classic error: tanned palms. If all goes wrong, never fear - here's how to remove fake tan, in 3 simple steps.
When it comes to fake tan, we're sort of past the point where anything goes. We want bespoke, natural-looking tans that last, with no rogue streaks or tell-tale tidemarks. But with so many products out there, it's easy to get stuck using your old favourite without trying the new-on-the scene formulas – which might actually be better suited to your needs. Or, you may be braving it au natch this year - are you team faux tan or no tan?
Even if you're generally a natural look girl, we can all do with a bronze boost once in a while — just check out the best fake tans for pale skin, like Madame La La in Light and Clarins' Liquid Bronze which you just add to a moisturiser. The formula is also one of the best fake tans for sensitive skins. If you just want something failsafe, try the best gradual tanners.
The need for natural, which has overcome the beauty industry in the last few years, has reached the tanning world too. Though in the past, organic products may not have filled people with optimism, there's nowadays there's some serious self-tanning contenders. The best natural fake tan we've tried is TanOrganic — an easy-to-apply oil that actually smells perfectly pleasant.
From the classic St Tropez to James Read's game-changing range, here's our tried and tested top mousses, creams and sprays for your body and face...
Need a bronzer to match your tan? Powder matches you with the best ones for you...

Beginning at the Beginning
Beginning at the beginning is always the sensible thing to do. That's especially true when it comes to conducting employment interviews. But just where does the road to a successful job interview begin? The answer: with the job itself!
Begin by embarking on a systematic review of the job, a process known as introspective investigation. Your objective is to collect as much information as possible about how the job is done and what knowledge and skills are needed to perform it. Here are a few suggestions that will help you collect the information you need:
Through introspective investigation, you gather the information that you need to begin the hiring process. There are no shortcuts, but if you're serious about matching the right job with the right candidate, time invested in this task will be well rewarded.

On New Year's Eve 1996, we decided we wanted a warmer place to celebrate, so we jumped on a train to New Orleans, took a paddleboat down the Mississippi, and ate dinner while watching the fireworks. The next day, there was the Sugar Bowl game and the Court of Two Sisters on Royal Street, in the French Quarter, where we went for mimosas and brunch. This routine became a tradition for a few years—but now it doesn't beat toasting in the year with our girls, so we brought the flavors home. This recipe holds a particularly funny memory for us. One year we had a bowl of some of these saucy, spicy shrimp at a restaurant on the pier, just before jumping on the paddleboat. Pat couldn't keep the spoon away from his mouth, and he ended up spilling a tremendous amount of that dark roux down the front of his white sweater. So there he was, sipping champagne and watching the fireworks with a huge stain! He didn't mind a bit.
- Yield
- Makes 6 appetizer servings
- 2 pounds large shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 6 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
- One 12-ounce light-bodied beer
- Juice of 1 lemon
- One 8-ounce bottle clam juice
- 1/4 cup hot sauce, preferably Tabasco
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons apple-cider vinegar
- 2 dried bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold butter, cut into cubes
- 1 crusty French baguette
- Toss the shrimp with the Cajun seasoning in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the canola oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Once it's hot, toss in the garlic, and sauté until golden, about 3 or 4 minutes. Add the shrimp to the pan, and cook until they turn bright pink, about 1 minute more. Remove the shrimp from the pan with a slotted spoon, and set aside on a plate. Pour in the beer, lemon juice, clam juice, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, apple-cider vinegar, bay leaves, and peppercorns; bring to a simmer, and cook for 15 minutes, until the liquid is slightly thickened.
- Whisk the cubes of butter into the sauce, and once it's melted, add the shrimp to finish cooking, about 2 minutes more. Serve the shrimp and sauce in bowls with loads of crusty bread for dipping.

These soft cookies are so good, you'll never guess they're vegan. Chocolate Covered Katie
Do not discount the weight-loss value of water aerobics, even though it seems low-impact and a bit slow, dietitian Nicole German writes. The workout is great for people who are obese or recovering from an injury, and activities such as water kickboxing and aqua jogging can be active calorie burners.
Federal nutrition standards for schools are a step in the right direction but more can be done, including nutrition education for staff and students, nutrition experts say. Some students said they did not get enough to eat under calorie limits in the rules, but registered dietitian Deborah Beauvais says the calorie targets are written "for the center of the bell curve," which means some students will have too much food and others too little.
Food trends for 2013 are about more than the food itself, registered dietitian Bonnie Taub-Dix writes, citing areas such as the people who do the shopping, planning meals ahead of time, stocking up on frozen fruits and vegetables, and portion-controlled dinners. Taub-Dix writes that she hopes more families eat meals together because parents can set examples for good eating habits and have an effect on what their children choose.
Holistic nutritionist Danielle Cook Navidi says she learned how to cook for a child who has cancer after her son was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, when finding foods he liked and could tolerate became a challenge. She teaches free classes on cooking for children with cancer, and wrote a cookbook, "Happily Hungry: Smart Recipes for Kids with Cancer," that reflects her back-to-basics approach.
Sisters Heather and Jenny Goldberg are the founders of Spork Foods, a membership group that provides vegan cooking classes and helps stock pantries with vegan and organic ingredients. They teamed with Open Road Films to create an online cooking series and occasional features called "Out of the Kitchen Adventure," which has them roaming Los Angeles to learn or teach something about being vegan.

HI all-
I am wondering if anyone knows tricks to prevent tree roots from regrowing
in unwelcome places (but without actually killing the tree). There are
several roots in the way of my retaining wall around the front yard, which I
will chop off, but am worried a million more smaller roots may sprout from
where I cut them off. I was thinking the filling in around them with gravel
mix (so there are low nutrients available- thus making it inhospitable for
regrowth). What do you all think? Any experience with this.

We are all so busy attempting to judge art. How can we judge art? What yard stick can we use on something that has never existed until that creative moment, something that has no laws or limitations to its style and beauty and is new with every busy stroke. What are you going to compare it to when it has no peer?
If our art can be repeated using only skilled craftsmanship ultimately reaching its level of maturity, all that "knowing how to paint" becomes a subconscious mechanism. The creative energy, unhampered by concern or lack of confidence, then spills itself onto the canvas. The educated adult drifts back into a natural state of love and joy. This freedom, like that of a child, is open to influence beyond the mind, thus bringing about original and uninhibited beauty of expression.
People discuss (my art) and pretend to understand, as if it were necessary to understand, when it is simply necessary to love.

Microsoft's (NASDAQ:MSFT) apparently still has a little surprise in it yet. This week Microsoft wowed the market with a 22% increase in its quarterly dividend, from $0.23 per share to $0.28 per share. On an annualized basis that comes out to $1.12, which represents a 3.4% yield based on current prices. With analyst estimates at $2.76, the new dividend represents a 40.6% payout ratio, which is still relatively low. So obviously this leaves a lot of room for future increases, right?
Unfortunately for investors in companies like Microsoft and Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL), which have large cash balances overseas, these companies can only use their U.S. cash to fund dividends and buybacks. The U.S. operations of these companies are the engines that produce the cash to pay dividends and buybacks for the whole company.
The following chart shows Microsoft's U.S. cash balance according to its 10-Ks (data only available from mid-2011, which is when Microsoft began making this disclosure):
(Source: 10-Ks)
Various U.S. financing transactions helped shore up the U.S. cash balance during this period, including a $2.25 billion bond in February 2011, $2.25 billion bond in November 2011, and $1.95 billion and euro 550 million bonds in April 2013. Notwithstanding these financings, the U.S. cash balance has been treading water for the last couple of years.
Meanwhile, non-U.S. cash continues to increase. The slight dip in foreign cash occurred in October 2011 in connection with the closing of the Skype acquisition. Microsoft will use foreign cash to fund the Nokia acquisition as well so expect a slight dip in one of the next few quarters. Other than those acquisitions, this money is basically trapped overseas until Washington concedes that the current situation is ridiculous and changes the rules.
(Source: 10-Ks)
The New Dividend and Share Buy-back
The new dividend of $0.28 per quarter will increase dividends from the current $7.6 billion annual run rate to $9.3 billion, an increase of $1.7 billion. Under the share buyback, the company has been repurchasing around $1 billion of stock per quarter over the last couple of years. All of this will need to be funded from U.S. cash balances.
Can the U.S. operations generate enough to fund this larger dividend and continue to fund the repurchase program? Unfortunately Microsoft organizes its segments around products rather than geographies, and any back-out of U.S. cash flow over the last few years would be incomplete because it would depend on changes in working capital.
What we do know is that the company has needed to incur new debt at various points over the last few years to keep its U.S. cash balance steady at $7-9 billion while funding its previous dividend and share repurchases. Adding $1.7 billion to the dividend will likely require additional debt issuances throughout the year.
More Debt
Microsoft may need to issue a $3-4 billion bond in 2014 to help fund the higher dividend. Frankly that is a drop in the bucket for a company as large and profitable as Microsoft, and of course Microsoft still has a healthy and growing foreign cash balance that can always be repatriated if necessary.
But the need to incur additional debt to fund the capital return is a clear sign that investors should not expect another 22% dividend hike next year. That would put too much pressure on the U.S. cash balance and require over $5 billion per year in new debt. Even for a company Microsoft's size, that would be an uncomfortable position going forward (since we all know Wall Street does not allow companies to lower their dividend).
Next Year
I do not consider Microsoft a buy for the reasons written in this article. The Nokia acquisition and "go it alone" strategy in mobile entails too many risks and costs, in my opinion, and there are better investment opportunities out there for our limited investment dollars.
But if you are a holder, you will no doubt enjoy the much larger dividend this year. Just don't bank on another 22% increase next year... unless, of course, the tax law changes.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from Seeking Alpha). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.

Detailed Description:
The primary question addressed by this study is: Using a stepped care approach in primary care, what is the value of the combination of an antidepressant medication (Venlafaxine) and psychotherapy for seniors living with depression and chronic lower back pain when treatment with a low-dose of venlafaxine and supportive management (SM) has led to only a partial or non-response?
Back Pain
Other: Combination Treatment with Higher-dose venlafaxine + PST-DP
Drug: Higher-dose venlafaxine and supportive management
Phase 4
|Study Type:
|Study Design:
|Allocation: Randomized
Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment
Masking: Single Blind (Outcomes Assessor)
Primary Purpose: Treatment
|Official Title:

Further study details as provided by University of Pittsburgh:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Depression: Patient Health Questionnaire-9 [ Time Frame: 3 minutes ]
- Pain: 20-Point Numeric Rating Scale [ Time Frame: 3 minutes ]
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- Self-Efficacy: Chronic Pain Self-Efficacy Scale [ Time Frame: 3 minutes ]
|Estimated Enrollment:

|Primary Completion Date:
|February 2016 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
|Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Study Intervention Arm
Higher-dose venlafaxine and Problem Solving Therapy for Depression and Pain (PST-DP)
Other: Combination Treatment with Higher-dose venlafaxine + PST-DP
Dosing of venlafaxine will range from 187.5-300 mg/day. Medication management and PST-DP will be delivered over the course of 10 sessions over 14 weeks.
Other Name: Effexor
Active Comparator: Active Control
Higher-dose venlafaxine and supportive management (SM)
Drug: Higher-dose venlafaxine and supportive management
The dose of venlafaxine will be between 187.5-300 mg/day. It will be offered with supportive management which encourages participants to take the medication and manages any treatment-emergent side effects. Ten sessions will be delivered over the course of 14 weeks.
Other Name: Effexor
Detailed Description:
The primary aims of the study are:
- To test the efficacy of higher-dose Venlafaxine and Problem Solving Therapy for Depression and Pain (VEN/PST-DP) in reducing depression and pain.
- To test the efficacy of higher-dose VEN/PST-DP in reducing back-related disability and improving physical functioning.
Primary Hypotheses:
- During the 14 weeks of step 2, patients receiving VEN/PST-DP, compared to those receiving VEN/SM, will respond faster and have a higher rate of response.
During the 14 weeks of phase 2, patients receiving VEN/PST-DP, compared to those receiving VEN/SM, will have better self-reported physical functioning.
Secondary Hypothesis:
- Self-efficacy has been shown to predict treatment outcomes for both depression and pain. We have observed that the self-efficacy for pain management of these patients improves with antidepressant pharmacotherapy. We hypothesize that for subjects assigned to receive treatment with VEN/PST-DP, self-efficacy will mediate treatment response.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|60 Years and older (Adult, Senior)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age 60 or older
- Scores 10 or higher on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). This is consistent with at least moderate depression severity.
- Endorses low back pain more days than not, of at least moderate severity, for at least the past 3 months.
- If venlafaxine up to 150 mg/day has been tried for at least 6 weeks, subjects must have been *completely* unresponsive for both depression and low back pain (based on subject report).
- During this episode of CLBP, must have tried without continued success any of the following: 1) prescription or over the counter analgesics, 2) physical therapy, 3) acupuncture, 4) injection therapy, 5) had back surgery, 6) multidisciplinary pain program, 7) psychological treatment for chronic pain such as cognitive behavioral therapy or biofeedback, or 8) any other physician-prescribed treatment for chronic low back pain.
Upon meeting, after obtaining written informed consent, the following inclusion criteria are administered to determine protocol-eligibility:
- Repeat PHQ-9 with score
- Current depression (major depression, partial remission of major depression, minor depression, or dysthymia) diagnosed with the PRIMEMD
- 20-item Numeric Rating Scale for low back pain
- The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). Eligibility requires score of at least 24
- No history of alcohol/substance abuse or dependence for the past six months. If subjects took more analgesics than prescribed for CLBP but there was no other evidence of abuse, they will be included. Alcohol and substance abuse will be assessed with the MINI-International Neuropsychiatric Interview.
Exclusion Criteria:
The following exclusion criteria will be assessed during telephone screening. If the individual responds in the affirmative to any of these conditions, they will not be eligible:
- Wheelchair-bound as this level of disability does not represent most older adults living with CLBP.
- Diagnosed with fibromyalgia; there is evidence that individuals with fibromyalgia may have a differential treatment response to SNRIs.
- Involved in a lawsuit related to back pain and/or receiving workers compensation.
Subjects must also not meet any of the following exclusion criteria:
- Current or past psychotic-spectrum disorder or current or past bipolar disorder. This will be determined with the PRIME-MD and MINI-Neuropsychiatric interview.
- Medically unstable, delirious, or terminally ill; or medical contraindication to use of venlafaxine therapy, including hypersensitivity, history of venlafaxine-induced SIADH, uncontrolled narrow angle glaucoma, AST or ALT > 1.5x upper limit of normal.
- Acute low back pain "red flag" superimposed on chronic low back pain suggesting medically emergent condition (e.g., vertebral fracture, infection, cauda equina syndrome, disk herniation, cancer).

5 dead as 8.0 quake off Solomons sparks Pacific tsunami
A major 8.0 magnitude earthquake jolted the Solomon Islands today with small tsunami waves buffeting Pacific coastlines, leaving at least five people dead and dozens of homes damaged or destroyed.
"Chaos in the streets of Suva as everyone tries to avoid the tsunami!!" tweeted Ratu Nemani Tebana from the Fiji capital. Quake-prone Japan, which was hit by a huge tsunami in March 2011 that killed more than 19,000 people, was also on edge with the national weather agency warning that a small tsunami could still come ashore. The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center cancelled its regional alert for Pacific-island nations at 0350 GMT, about two and a half hours after the powerful quake struck at 0112 GMT near the Santa Cruz Islands in the Solomons. "We can report five dead and three injured. One of the dead was a male child, three were elderly women and one an elderly man," Chris Rogers, a nurse at Lata Hospital in the Santa Cruz Islands, told AFP. Solomons Prime Minister Gordon Darcy Lilo's office said four villages on the Santa Cruz Islands had been hit.
"Latest reports suggest that between 60 to 70 homes have been damaged by waves crashing into at least four villages on Santa Cruz Islands," Lilo's spokesman George Herming told AFP. "At this stage, authorities are still trying to establish the exact number and extent of damage. Communication to (the) Santa Cruz Islands is difficult due to the remoteness of the islands." It was not immediately apparent whether the victims died in the quake or tsunami. Solomon Islands Red Cross secretary general Joanne Zoleveke said she too had been told at least three villages were hit, with houses washed away.
