Enhancing Your Physical Appearance With The Assistance Of
The lower section of the upper arms can start to droop as a result of unwanted fat and skin. Luckily, individuals battling with this issue have a way to overcome this condition in the form of brachioplasty. This procedure really helps to reshape the lower section of the arm between your shoulder and the elbow and will be carried out by Tampa plastic surgeons.
Within the plastic surgery in Tampa, the doctor minimizes virtually any localized body fat compartments which have gathered in the upper arm, even while getting rid of excess skin which has started to sag. Furthermore, he / she smooths as well as firms the support tissue that provides the upper arm its contour. Many reasons exist for why an individual may want to undergo this treatment. Some individuals elect to do so as they've lost weight and no longer like the appearance of their arms. Other folks elect to undertake the arm lift simply because they do not like the way their arms look while they grow older.
Others undergo the surgical treatment since their genes have predisposed them to experience arms that sag and droop. Irrespective of exactly why someone wants to fix the issue, cosmetic surgery is usually the only option, because exercising is of no aid. If you struggle with triceps which are drooping or look wobbly because of excess fat and skin, give some thought to
new tampa plastic surgery
. Doing this permits you to have biceps and
you cannot wait to show off and definitely will allow you to wear tops having short sleeves not to mention tank tops once more. You will feel great when the operation is done. Talk to a cosmetic surgeon now to learn more about this treatment and exactly how it may be of help to you.

Unlike Wisconsin, Ohio has no recall law. The only apparent route to overturning this union-busting legislation may be with a statewide initiative or a constitutional amendment. As the statehouse filled with union protestors, talk spread of how and when that might be done.
Polls are showing overwhelming support for public workers, in part due to the blatant attack on Ohio's police and firefighters who are now barred from negotiating on safety issues. The bill bans binding arbitration used in the past to settle negotiations, and instead allows management to pick the settlement it wants.
Ohioans may also consider a constitutional amendment to guarantee hand-counted paper ballots. Electronic voting is dominated here by the successor to the Ohio-based Diebold corporation and the ES&S corporation, and other Republican-controlled voting machine companies. The privatization of Ohio's voting and voter registration rolls corresponded with a 5.4% shift to the Republican Party not predicted by the exit polls in the 2010 election. Exit polls showed Kasich losing the election.
Overall the architectural map of the Ohio election system appears to give private voting companies contracted to the Secretary of State's office---currently headed by John Husted, a Republican---the ability to electronically select state office winners in a matter of a few minutes on election night. Husted has already introduced legislation to restrict voting rights through demands for photo ID and other measures aimed at students, the elderly, poor and other Democrat-leaning citizens. Without universal voter registration and hand-counted paper ballots, the Ohio Democratic party has little chance of winning statewide office for the foreseeable future, or of turning back legislative union busting.
Key to the national corporate strategy now playing itself out in Ohio is the destruction of the Democratic Party's traditional base. It is also about trashing teachers, firefighters, police and other citizens who choose to work for the general good rather than individual profit. As Nina Turner, a Senate Democrat told the New York Times, "This bill seeks to vilify our public employees and turn what used to be the virtue of public service into a crime."
It's widely believed Kasich will next assault Ohio's pubic school system, whose funding mechanisms have been repeatedly ruled unconstitutional by state courts. Kasich is a cheerleader for private charter schools. The GOP is expected to push a voucher program that would use taxpayer money to subsidize private schools for the rich.
David Brennan, owner of White Hat Management, a chain of private charter schools, has consistently been the leading donor to the Ohio Republican candidates. Former Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray filed a legal complaint against Brennan alleging that "White Hat's management agreements with the schools are invalid because the public charter schools handed over nearly all funding - 96 percent - to White Hat and were given essentially no accountability or transparency as to how the funds were spent."
Kasich and the GOP have already moved to gut environmental regulations and turn the state's park system over to corporate extractors. He is also expected to attack legislation mandating advances in renewable energy while pushing for a new nuclear plant to be built in southern Ohio by corporations poised to cash in on massive federal subsidies being proposed by President Obama (Nuke giveaway).
While the mood of demonstrators yesterday at the statehouse was angry and defiant, there are no illusions about the stakes in this battle. Governor Kasich and his wholly owned Republican legislature are born of unlimited Citizens United corporate cash and rigged electronic voting machines.
It's thus no surprise that the first serious blood drawn in this latest corporate campaigns to finally wipe labor unions off the American map has come in the Buckeye State.
The question now: can the unions effectively fight back, in Ohio and nationwide?

text: Hey guys, I ordered a betta and I have him in a 30g aquarium filled about 10-11 inches of water (gonna add some marbled hatchet fish too, but they're not here yet) so I can do semi terrestrial plants. Gonna hang a light over it. I already have some pothos hanging in there, and I ordered some mangroves, but I just bought a couple of umberalla palms and I don't see much info on them in aquariums, just planted around ponds, due to the size they get I guess. Am I right in assuming that 11 inches of water is a bit too deep (I read that 5-6 inches was optimum) and I should probably plant them up a little higher in ceramic pots? Or will it be ok to plant them in the eco complete substrate at the bottom? Plus I was wondering if anyone has luck growing them in aquariums.

Bubble-Grunge Pops Again
The more things change, the more Evan Dando remains the same. "Is it really true, years passed away?" the alt-pop pinup sings on The Lemonheads, an album so steeped in '90s nostalgia that it's easy to believe he truly hasn't noticed an entire decade has passed since his band's last, Car Button Cloth. Time flies, it turns out, when he's having fun: Aside from his 2003 solo debut, aptly titled Baby I'm Bored, Dando has chosen to expend his energy hanging with celebs and blabbing about his infamous drug life to anyone who still cares. So if he's surprised to find time passing him by, listeners are equally shocked to discover he still fancies himself a musician.
The Lemonheads, however, makes a strong case for his full-time return to music. Recorded with Descendents drummer Bill Stevenson and bassist Karl Alvarez, the band's eighth album may find Dando penning his same old bubble-grunge song, but it remains a good one. Despite unfortunate lyrical clunkers like "If it ain't fixed, don't break it," it's hard to resist such amiable pop-rock confections as "Steve's Boy," "No Backbone" and "Pittsburgh" — none of which would've sounded out of place on Dando's crowning achievement, 1993's Come On Feel the Lemonheads. Newcomers probably won't feel The Lemonheads; its unscrubbed feel is out of sync with today's glossier music world. But for longtime fans who've missed Dando's infectious, deceptively simple songs, this is a nostalgia trip worth taking.

Queen Monica plus guests @ The Swamp Bar @ Caledonian Backpackers
| 15 Jun 2006
a country-soaked ménage of magnetic melody, sumptuous song-writing and dreary detachmentTonight's Tigerfest offering is a country-soaked ménage of magnetic melody, sumptuous song-writing and dreary detachment. Seven-piece shufflers The Stantons immediately inject zeal into the occasion with smooth pastoral harmonies and delectable hillbilly acoustics. Like the soundtrack to a black and white western, this banjo-led ensemble turns melancholic pondering into a gloriously effusive art-form. Following this buoyant beginning is the kookily cute Phoebe Kreutz and her jovial tales of lesbian cowgirls and Viking wannabes. Adorably quirky, her voice soars over spiky strumming like a countrified Regina Spektor, using craftily contagious songs to woo the heart of the audience.
Swiftly pursuing this enriching experience is the shambling sound of The Folk. Exuding a distinct medieval aroma, this band takes the scouse stargazing of The Stands and blends it with Jens Lekman-esque bewilderment. Awash with promise, the performance is marred by a lack of coherence, meandering into insipid Magic Numbers territory. But once Queen Monica amble on stage The Folk's banality seems positively vibrant. The acoustic duo's homely folk is engulfed in a cavernous venue, forfeiting the fragile poignancy of the heartfelt lyrics. Overawed and shallow sounding, Queen Monica seem lost on an evening that shimmered with delight before fading away. [Billy Hamilton]

Rekhis Inventus scouting for startups, bullish on India
He was the first Indo-American CEO to take a venture-backed company public on the NASDAQ. Now US-based Kanwal Rekhi is back in India scouting for innovative start-ups for his company Inventus Capital to invest in.
Also Read: UPA crisis irks brokerages, trigger outlook change
It has been a busy start to 2013 for venture capitalist Kanwal Rekhi. The Indian-American founder of Inventus capital has just tied up USD 71million out of the targeted USD 100 million for his second fund and plans to raise the remaining USD 29million by June this year. From its first fund, Inventus Capital had invested USD 52million in 18 companies. Two of which has already exited successfully and now with the second fund, the VC firm plans to invest ticket sizes of around USD 1-2million each in 20-25 startups across India and the US over the next 5 yrs.
Kanwal Rekhi, MD, Inventus Capital says, "We don't like capital intensive companies. We are typically first institutional investors in companies. We invest in tech startups, companies that use internet, ecommerce, software as services."
Infact, Rekhi who is now in India, has already signed term sheets with two Indian companies and expects to ink these deals by end of April. But even as he his team shortlist promising startups, they are aware the road ahead may not be all rosy.
Rekhi says the lack of good exit points and clarity regarding the Indian regulatory framework is indeed a cause of concern. "Rules are unclear and ever changing as we saw with Vodafone. Retrospective is the norm of the day and so investors are not aware of the rules. General Anti-Avoidance Rule (GAAR) we need clarity on what does this mean in terms of Mauritius," he adds.
Overall, Rekhi remains bullish about the entrepreneurship ecosystem in India. He is betting on disruptive tech startups to rake in the moolah.

Edwin Rosario, who was a world boxing champion in two weight divisions, might have achieved even more had he not spent so long struggling with his personal demons. His death, in mysterious circumstances at the age of 34, came at a time when he was preparing for his next comeback fight in Miami in January. Cocaine abuse was suspected, but denied by his friend the WBA featherweight champion Wilfredo Vazquez.
At his peak "Chapo" Rosario was a heavy-punching lightweight who held both the World Boxing Council and the World Boxing Association titles. Only his failure to master the English language spoiled attempts to turn him into an internationally marketable personality.
Early in his career he was snapped up by the New York partnership of Jim Jacobs and Bill Cayton, who masterminded Mike Tyson's rise to fame in the mid-1980s. However, it was impossible to project Rosario as fully as the Puerto Rican had hoped, and they parted company. Nevertheless, his boxing ability was never in question.
Rosario was born in the San Juan suburb of Santurce, and his family moved to Toa Baja when he was three. Edwin was educated at a local high school, where he met his future wife, Alma. He also trained in a boxing gym run by Manny Siacca, who taught him how to fight and eventually helped negotiate the deal with Jacobs and Cayton.
By then he was already a professional - he had made a winning professional debut at 16, and was still only six weeks past his 20th birthday when he won the World Boxing Council lightweight title by outpointing the Mexican southpaw Jose Luis Ramirez over 12 rounds in San Juan in May 1983.
In a rematch the following year Ramirez stopped him, but in 1986 he gave the extraordinary Hector Camacho a gruelling 12 rounds before the self- styled "Macho Man" was given a bitterly disputed decision. Both were Puerto Rican, but Camacho had been raised in New York. In effect, Rosario claimed the decision was racially biased, an argument that was never taken seriously.
Rosario won the World Boxing Association lightweight title with a stunning second-round knockout of Livingstone Bramble in Miami in September 1986, and remained champion for 14 months until he was stopped by the legendary Mexican Julio Cesar Chavez in the 11th round of one of the best fights of the decade.
If anything, that performance enhanced his status rather than diminished it, and two years later he regained the WBA title by stopping Anthony "Baby Face" Jones of Detroit. By the turn of the decade, however, his life was beginning to crumble. He lost his title, moved up to light-welterweight and was briefly recognised as champion by the WBA, but by 1992 was in crisis.
A younger brother, Papote, had been forced to abandon a promising professional career because of drug addiction, and rumours began to surface that Edwin had a cocaine problem. Eventually, he parted from his wife, who took their daughters Ruby and Glorisabel with her, and he drifted into retirement.
At one time he was said to be a cock-fighting entrepreneur in Toa Baja, but his weight ballooned as he struggled to overcome his personal difficulties. His comeback in July 1997 was sad. Although he won two fights, and talked optimistically of another world championship, he was an elderly athlete. It could never have happened.
Poignantly, he said at his peak in 1986: "I won't be in this game for too long, and when I do get out, I want to be a positive influence with the kids in Puerto Rico. No fancy cars or flashy clothes for me, I just want to take care of my family and do good for others."

Chapelle St. Theodoric Chateauneuf du Pape Le Grand Pin 2012
|Red Wine
|France » Rhone » Chateauneuf-du-Pape
|Chapelle St. Theodoric
Product Description
The vinification is traditional, that is to say, whole-cluster, such as employed exclusively by Jacques Reynaud at Chateau Rayas, Laurent Charvin, Henri Bonneau. The two parcels are vinified and aged and bottled separately, but with the exact same treatment, the experiment being to find what terroir differences one might find in pure sand, between vines less than 200 meters apart, both on sand, pure Grenache, and traditional vinification.
Wine Advocate
Coming from sandy soils next to Rayas, the 2012 Châteauneuf du Pape le Grand Pin is a fresher, more focused and linear example of this cuvee. Showing sappy pine bush, Christmas spice and mint in its core of kirsch and blackberry fruit, it flows onto the palate with a seamless, elegant profile that carries fine tannin and bright acidity. It's a finesse-drive effort, and while I'd like more backend depth and richness, it should evolve nicely through at least 2022.Score: 92, Jeb Dunnuck, October 2014

Call (888) 651-9785
very good. really no waiting. the guide is very friendly. recommended.
Spectacular tour, loved every minute of it, very informative. The tour guides were very friendly and nice. Well worth it.
This was a fantastic tour with an awesome tour with a knowledgeable guide.
My wife and I signed up in advance of visiting Rome for the Skip the Queue St Peters Tour - the Tour guide was Mercedes, who was one of the best Tour guides we have come across - Professional, Knowledgeable, Enthusiastic and demonstrated a genuine care in ensuring all members of the tour had a fair access to the various areas of the Basilica and sights. She took time to take photos of each couple / member of the tour on top of the Dome - a nice touch. Mercedes appeared to have a knack of getting access to some of the areas of the Basilica other tours appeared were not able to do. We had originally paid for the tour of the Basilica but decided to take up the option to pay a further 50 for the tour of the Dome A fantastic experience. Thoroughly recommend this tour operator if Mercedes is representative of the quality of staff they use to conduct their tours. Cannot speak highly enough about her and the Tour.
This is a must book guided tour . We had an excellent tour guide and highly recommend the No wait access: St Peter's Basilica Guided Tour .
Great way to see St Peter's Basilica. The only suggestion is making the meeting point easier to find. Its hard to locate where to meet the guides.
Absolutely no wait, the guide was wonderful, and we switched to a french guide at the last minute. Great service from everybody, great visit!
We loved this part of our Rome experience, just thought that the plan of the Basilica handed to us, could have been better marked, as we did not always listen to the correct audio guide as we went along....it was a bit confusing. But what a visual experience!!!
Excellent guide. The no wait access was very useful.
Everything went fine, guide was very helpful. Highly recommended. A tip: guides are situated close to the check for metals/bags under the column, Show your ticket for people controlling the access under the columns. Do not head to the queues.
Excellent - a very informative guide, who provided a very accessible tour around the treasures
This tour was very insightful and the guide was friendly and easy to understand. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to see St. Peter's in a pinch, but still would like some information instead of aimlessly wandering around. This tour took about an hour. Great tour!
Excellent tour, outstanding tour guide, been in St Peters before, but this brought to life with History, facts and trivia. Sylvia , I think was the guide, very very good
Cynthia A United States of ...
Our tour guide is very good, a true Roman who pride in her history.
Fabulous, no waiting in long queues and our guide, Catalina, was brilliant she was so knowledgeable and really made the tour come alive with her descriptions of the sculptures and art work. I would definitely use this service again.
The tour was excellent we enjoyed very much we like to thank the young lady for her good English
Best to get a guided tour for St. Peter's Basilica to fully appreciate the history and the important details of the Basilica.
St. Peter and #39;s was amazing of course but our guide maDE the tour.
What a beautiful place with so much history our guide was very good
Excellent way to get in front of the crowds. There was a queue of about an hour and we just waltzed past. It wasn't so easy to find the place we should go to near the brown booth on the left arm of the square, but if you allow fifteen minutes time in advance, you should be fine.
The girl who was our guide wS excellent would highly recommend herShe shRed an excellent knowledge of the cathedral.The arrangments went smoothly
Only five of us in the group and the guide was excellent. We found the meeting spot easily and were quickly entered into the church.
Fantastic tour guide, very informative and helpful. An absolute must if you want the best out of St Peter's Basilica, particularly if you don't want to stand in the long queues. I would def' book again.
This was fantastic! Our train was late getting into Rome, so we missed our 10am tour time, but the company was great about getting us into the next available tour. It was nice having all the time we needed to see everything without having to wait in line. Fabulous outing!
Our tour guide for St. Peter's Basilica was fantastic! Just what we were looking for- pointed out the key features with short history without getting long winded. Would definitely recommend this tour! Skipping the line was very nice and for first time visitors to the Vatican it was very nice to have someone to show us the key pieces and what we could look at on our own once the tour was over.

MAKOplasty Robotic Arm Partial Knee Resurfacing
MAKOplasty® Partial Knee Resurfacing is an advanced minimally invasive treatment option for adults suffering from osteoarthritis (OA) in one or two compartments of their knee. It is the only truly patient-specific procedure, planned and performed from a 3-D model of your knee. MAKOplasty is powered by the proven, highly accurate RIO® Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopaedic System, which allows surgeons to achieve consistently reproducible results so you can return to an active lifestyle.
MAKOplasty is designed to relieve the pain caused by joint degeneration due to osteoarthritis (OA). By selectively targeting only the diseased part of your knee, your surgeon can spare healthy bone, tissue, and ligaments. Other benefits may include a smaller incision, shorter hospital stay, less pain, reduced blood loss, less scarring, and a more rapid recovery.
MAKOplasty is indicated for patients suffering from osteoarthritis in one or two compartments of their knee. A total knee replacement is sometimes necessary if your surgeon discovers during surgery that your knee has more damage than originally seen in the pre-operative X-rays and CT scan.
MAKOplasty – A Less Invasive Procedure
MAKOplasty is enabled by robotic arm technology that allows the surgeon to perform the procedure accurately through a smaller incision when compared to standard manual procedures. Surgeons use the RIO® Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopaedic System, a surgeon-controlled robotic arm system that combines computer imaging with intelligent instrumentation. This allows the surgeon to more accurately place the implant that has been selected for your knee.
By preserving healthy bone, tissue, and ligaments, along with more accurate implant positioning, you can expect a more natural feeling knee. Since healthy bone is preserved, patients who undergo MAKOplasty partial knee procedures may still be candidates for a total knee replacement procedure later in life if necessary. Your surgeon should discuss the specific risks associated with MAKOplasty and other treatment options with you.
Clinical Data Highlights
Results of several studies demonstrate the clinical benefits of robotic arm assisted MAKOplasty® Partial Knee Resurfacing. Initial results of an ongoing study found MAKOplasty resulted in more accurately placed implants and less pain for the first eight weeks after surgery when compared with patients receiving manually placed implants.
Comparing American Knee Society Scores, a common measure of knee functionality, the study also found MAKOplasty patients had increased post-operative functionality at three months post-surgery.
A study comparing MAKOplasty Partial Knee Resurfacing with total knee arthroplasty found that MAKOplasty demonstrated improved function, better post-operative range of motion, and better quadriceps strength.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is MAKOplasty® covered by health insurance providers?
A: As a knee replacement procedure, MAKOplasty is typically covered by Medicare and most private insurance carriers.
Q: Does the robotic arm system actually perform the surgery?
A: No, MAKOplasty is performed by an orthopaedic surgeon, who uses the surgeon-controlled robotic arm system to pre-plan the surgery and to accurately resurface the bone with consistently reproducible precision.
The robotic arm does not perform the surgery nor can it make decisions on its own or move in any way without the surgeon guiding it. During surgery, RIO® provides the surgeon with real-time visual, tactile, and auditory feedback to facilitate optimal joint resurfacing and implant positioning. It is this optimal placement that can result in more natural knee motion following surgery.
Q: What is the difference between MAKOplasty and traditional knee replacement surgery?
B: Unlike manual surgery, MAKOplasty provides consistent and reproducible accuracy through the use of RIO and the contouring design of RESTORIS® implants. Compared to total knee replacements, MAKOplasty preserves healthy bone, soft tissue, and ligaments which allows for an overall less invasive procedure, more rapid recovery, shorter hospital stay, and more natural knee function.
Q: What is the lifespan of a MAKOplasty implant?
A: All implants have a life expectancy that depends on several factors including the patient's weight, activity level, quality of bone stock, and compliance with their surgeon's orders. Proper implant alignment and precise positioning during surgery are also very important.

Last week, the two tech titans had what you might call a photo finish: Decent quarterly results, with double-digit growth in some product categories, but revenue that was a tad lighter than Wall Street had expected and profits only pennies better than predicted.
But the disappointment with Apple (ticker: AAPL) was substantially greater on Wednesday night, after it reported. Its shares fell as much as 11% in late trading, and ended the week down 12%, at $439.88. Microsoft (MSFT), in contrast, rose by 1% following its Thursday report and ended the week at $27.88, up 2.3%.
That is because Microsoft is no stranger to disappointment, whereas Apple is. Microsoft has for quite some time now been pestered to do something with its cash pile, as its shares have generally languished. The 10-year appreciation in share price for Microsoft is 12%, vastly trailing the S&P 500's 63% move up over the same span.
Microsoft's cash totaled $68 billion at the end of the fiscal second quarter. We've written in this space about how investors and analysts have suggested that the software maker borrow against that cash to increase its dividend dramatically or do much larger buybacks.
And now some of the same calls are hitting Apple, and will continue to do so, as the Street concludes that the era of amazing quarterly surprises is over (see "Rx for Apple: The 4% Solution").
Apple's revenue in the year-earlier December quarter beat the consensus forecast by a whopping 18%, followed by a smaller but still impressive 6% in the March quarter of last year. It then went on to record a miss of 6% in the June quarter and beat expectations by a hair in September.
Following last week's revenue miss, FBN Securities' Shebly Seyrafi on Thursday morning declared: "Apple's glory days are now behind it." (And that's the view from a bull, mind you.) If that's true, as many seem quick to believe, it leaves Apple open to the kinds of scrutiny of its cash that has plagued Microsoft for a long time.
Apple ended the quarter with $137 billion in cash and investments, more than the GDP of many nations. (About $94 billion of this is overseas and would be taxed if repatriated, so some borrowing by Apple might be necessary.)
Jeffrey Gundlach, the bond expert at DoubleLine Capital, who has repeatedly called for a retracement of Apple shares from their 52-week high of $705.07 to what he considers fair value around $425, appeared on CNBC Wednesday night, almost immediately after the report.
Gundlach made the bear case for valuation, succinctly, stating that although the stock appears cheap, "what's the multiple on cash? It's supposed to be zero, right? So, if you're betting that they're going to do something brilliant with it, you're taking a pretty big leap of faith."
With the passing of founder Steve Jobs, Gundlach was perhaps only half joking in suggesting that Apple has enough money to build Noah's Ark—his way of saying inventiveness has left the building in Cupertino.
Late Friday, Gundlach told Barron's: "I certainly think AAPL has a challenging future if it hopes to keep up with the successes of the recent past."

Apple could have, for example, removed the sting of Wednesday night's report with an increase in its quarterly dividend from the current $2.65 per share, a 2.4% yield. That's not bad, and it's certainly better than it was when the stock was at $700, but it pales beside the 4.3% yield on Intel's INTC 0.19225487503433122% Intel Corp.

Even Microsoft's long-criticized yield is 3.3%.
Apple could have boosted its share buybacks, too, on which it spent just $2 billion last quarter. Apple's chief financial officer, Peter Oppenheimer, responded to inquires about the cash Wednesday night by saying that the company will return a total of $45 billion to investors over the next three years in dividends and buybacks.
IT'S NOT NECESSARILY WISE, however, for Apple to heed the calls to unleash its cash. For one thing, cash doesn't necessarily have a multiple of zero, as Gundlach suggests, when it's in the hands of a company that can sell nearly 50 million gizmos at around $600 a pop in three months.
Moreover, the results last week weren't too shabby. Apple shipped 29% more iPhones than it did a year ago, which is substantial growth, even if it missed the most aggressive estimates for 55 million units.
The company increased its iPad shipments by nearly half, more than many pundits had expected. And the 22.9 million iPads it shipped were more than all the personal computers Hewlett-Packard HPQ 0.1884422110552764% HP Inc.

That, plus sales of iPods and Macs, brought in $23 billion in operating cash flow in the quarter.
Many listening to the call on Wednesday night brushed past some caveats that CEO Tim Cook offered. Despite record iPhone sales, the supply of the newer iPhone 5 was "constrained" until late in the quarter. The company might have sold more, in other words.
And although many analysts fear the iPad mini is eating away at its more expensive sibling, Cook made a point of emphasizing that the company saw "strong" demand for both models, though he wouldn't break out the split.
Apple isn't a broken company, in any way, regardless of whether the technicals at the moment appear to say that its stock is broken. The challenge for both Microsoft and Apple is to convince Wall Street they should be allowed to spend the cash as they please.
Microsoft is in a slightly different situation from Apple. Its sales of Windows track a PC market that isn't entirely in its control. On Thursday, management implored Wall Street to wait and see what kinds of new tablets and hybrid personal computers will show up later this year to entice people to buy Windows 8. The once-predictable Windows upgrade cycle is proving not as predictable this time around, and that worries Microsoft investors. Apple, in contrast, controls the finished goods it releases. With the iPad, it manufactured a whole market overnight.
Although we'll probably see a protracted period of hand-wringing about the cash, at some point the focus will return to the fact that Apple can and still does surprise with very good products, of which it sells gazillions.

The greatest boat in the world. Associated with the Alabama, kids usually 9-14 take trips that are a week long. During these trip, children get to swim, clean, have galley duty, and etc. Very fun. You usually meet great kids on the boat and have a wonderful time. The crew is wonderful and some of them are pretty much total babes. I recomend camera's and pens and paper. Cabin 8 is the largest and has cracks in the wall to pass notes. Cabin 8 is also known as the party room. Two dogs often ponder the boat, Bandit and Tank. Tank is shy and Bandit is not. They can fit through portholes too! There's a line chase and I recomend learning your lines. You also learn how to make sailor's bracelets along with flemish coils. AND THERE'S A CANNON THAT WE SET OFF AND YOU CAN HEAR IT EVERYWHERE.

Was vs were
I need to know the grammar term for the situation in which you use the plural form of "was" when speaking about a singular noun but in either a conditional case or state something about the subject that is false, e.g.
John WAS absent
If John WERE here . . .
I know there is a name for this but i have forgotten what it is. Something like conditional case. Anybody know?

You might say that bearded irises are the most known of the irises. I am
sure the reason has to be the fact that years ago when the adventuring
folks traveled to new frontiers, they were able to take rhizomes along
with them. Some of these rhizomes saw many a long and dry period of time
boxed up waiting for a place to grow.
I feel that the beardless are starting to make great progress and will
increase in popularity as they get to be exposed to the general public.
I personally encourage people to try Spurias, Louisianas, Siberians, and
the Japanese. Len in Kansas

Terrence Malick Speaks
Last month, Alexandre Desplat — composer for, literally, every film released since late 2004 — made the high-faulting claim that Kathryn Bigelow's manhunt romp, Zero Dark Thirty, carries the spirit of a Kurosawa film. Having since seen it for myself, I'd guess he was thinking of something more like High and Low (particularly that one's second half) than, otherwise, Yojimbo, as this fan couldn't place that similarity once during its long runtime. But just because it doesn't feel like his work doesn't mean the picture in question is bad — the thing's very far from bad, even.
Just as this score does not recall the flute-y sound we've heard over the Toho logo time and time again, it can still be top-notch material in its own right. While most have not been able to see the movie yet, ThePlaylist were handed over Desplat's full score for the listening pleasure of those who know the conclusion and those who don't alike — that's funny, because we all know how Zero Dark Thirty ends — so dig in. For the assignment, he looked toward Jessica Chastain's central character, Maya, with the focus being on "her character, her chase, her personality" — and the result is, fittingly, an intense set of orchestral pieces. More great work from one of the modern day's best.
The full composition can be listened to below:
Some more of Bigelow's own work is getting shown off in a new, misleading TV spot. Here, viewers across the country are promised "The Real Story of SEAL Team 6," an aspect that Zero Dark Thirty focuses on… right toward the end. Yes, they act as the climax's centerpiece, and, yes, you'll get to see how things went down with them at work, but this is not at all unlike the advertising of Inglourious Basterds as a Nazi-killing adventure — which makes this late bait-and-switch more acceptable. It's a good ad, too.
Take a look below (via Facebook):
On a final note, you may have heard the film is racking up a great deal of awards buzz, with gold glittering in the eyes of Sony and Annapurna as we speak — lately, plaudits only keep coming in from critic groups all over the country. This past weekend alone, the Washington, D.C. Area Film Critics Association, the Boston Film Critics Society, the New York Film Critics Online, and the Boston Online Film Critics Association all gave Zero Dark Thirty prizes for Best Picture and Best Director; there was also a split between Jessica Chastain and Amour's Emmanuelle Riva in the Best Actress category, while the NYFCO handed Mark Boal a Best Screenplay win. Academy, it would almost appear the choice has been made for you. [THR]

The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the constitutionality of Michigan's 2012 PA 53, which prevents public schools from collecting membership dues for unions that represent public school employees.
The ruling lifts an injunction issued by Eastern District Judge Denise Page Hood that banned enforcement of the measure.
The case is Bailey, et al. v. Callaghan, et al.
In a split decision, 6th Circuit Judge Raymond Kethledge, joined by Judge Julia Smith Gibbons, got right to the point of the plaintiffs' argument, and why their argument was unavailing.
"The theory behind their First Amendment claim runs as follows: unions engage in speech (among many other activities); they need membership dues to engage in speech; if the public schools do not collect the unions' membership dues for them, the unions will have a hard time collecting the dues themselves; and thus Public Act 53 violates the unions' right to free speech.
"The problem with this theory is that the Supreme Court has already rejected it. 'The First Amendment prohibits government from "abridging the freedom of speech"; it does not confer an affirmative right to use government payroll mechanisms for the purpose of obtaining funds for expression.' Ysursa v. Pocatello Educ. Ass'n, 555 U.S. 353, 355 (2009).
"Here, Public Act 53 does not restrict the unions' speech at all: they remain free to speak about whatever they wish. Moreover, 'nothing in the First Amendment prevents a State from determining that its political subdivisions may not provide payroll deductions' for union activities, id.; and payroll deductions are all that Public Act 53 denies the unions here. Seldom is precedent more binding than Ysursa is in this case."
In her dissent, Judge Jane Branstetter Stranch didn't see the issue as being so cut-and-dried.
"The majority spills little ink in its dismissal of the school unions' free-speech challenge. In doing so, it mischaracterizes the First Amendment interests at stake, glosses over key distinctions the Supreme Court requires us to observe, and averts its gaze from Act 53's blatant viewpoint discrimination.
"Most concerning to me, however, is the majority's refusal to engage in an analysis of viewpoint discrimination in light of Michigan's explicit statement that the law's purpose is to put a 'check on union power.'
"The foundational requirement of viewpoint neutrality means little if a state may legislate with impunity to cripple the power of an unpopular group whose political views are objectionable to the state.
"The unanswered constitutional question in this case is whether the government may burden expression it disagrees with by selectively restricting access to public resources that facilitate that expression.
"The answer is no. The majority wrongly concludes otherwise."

Virtual Application Patterns are one of the major new features in IBM Workload Deployer v3. You've heard this concept discussed on this blog before and it is really a revolutionary way to manage your applications in a private cloud environment. With Virtual Application Patterns you provide declarative information about your application including functional and non-functional requirements of that application. You get to focus on the application rather than the middleware configuration and IBM Workload Deployer takes care of all the details necessary to launch your application with the criteria you specify. This application-centric approach radically simplifies the deployment of applications in a private cloud. And it is not just the deployment that is simplified; it is also the monitoring, metering, logging, security, caching, etc ... that is consolidated and simplified as well. Everything is custom tailored for the particular application type to provide a significant level of integration and optimization for elastic, efficient, multi-tenant, automated management and execution of that application workload.
|In IBM Workload Deployer v3 there are two different types of virtual application patterns provided out of the box; a pattern for web applications and a pattern for database applications. It's no accident that these are also the two most heavily utilized types of applications in most enterprises. Of course more patterns will be appearing in the future and you have the opportunity to create your own custom patterns ... but these first two patterns can cover a substantial number of current application workloads.
|So why am I introducing all of this again? Well, I want to make you aware of a new article that was just published which covers virtual application patterns in a very consumable way with enough detail and screen shots to get you started down this path. It is appropriately named: Easy virtual app automation using Workload Deployer . It really does a great job of covering not only the web application pattern - but it also introduces the database pattern (DBaaS) and shared services. If you are about to embark on virtual applications this is a great place to start.
