Administration Core A. Mrs. Kimberly Hagler, Program Administrator, will work with Dr. Timothy Cope, Core A Principal Investigator, and Dr. Robert Fyffe, Core A Co-PI, to establish and manage Program Project business. This office will oversee the day-to-day operations of the Program, including: (1) disseminating all information;(2) organizing and managing group meetings and events;(3) ordering, receiving and distributing supplies;(4) facilitating access to secretarial and computer networking services;(5) assisting personnel actions;(6) maintaining all project accounts and preparing monthly budget reports with the assistance of a part-time accounting clerk;(7) preparing necessary reports for the Program. This core will also manage the subcontract for Project 2 with Emory University, and make all arrangements for the creation and utilization of an External Advisory Committee (EAC) that will meet at Wright State University annually. Decision Making Process is straightforward for this administrative core. Services listed above apply to all 3 Projects and to Core B. Should any special needs or adjustments be required, then all 4 Principal Investigators (projects 1, 2, 3, and Core B) will make the changes by consensus. Cost Effectiveness and Quality Control: The operating costs are heavily shared by the academic infrastructure established for Dept. Neuroscience, Cell Biology &Physiology at Wright State University. Departmental funds cover most of the salary for Mrs. Hagler, together with office space and supplies, computer support, FAX and photocopying. Quality control amounts to oversight by the Core PI, in consultation with the other PIs, of the effectiveness in delivery of services listed above.
This core assumes responsibility for promoting and overseeing activities that are essential to the purpose of the program project mechanism, namely the sharing of ideas, data, and specialized core resources, laboratories, and administrative services.

The Mama has been at it again. Up until all hours of the night on that stupid Pinterest site. It's bad enough when she's pinning cool as woof dog stuff to my Pinterest boards, but sometimes, she goes to her personal Pinterest and pins stupid boring stuff there. Mama, I don't care about Salad Recipes or those stupid e-cards, I want treats. What happens when your Mama needs a Pintervention?get the InLinkz code
Sometimes? Magic Happens.
Source: marthastewart.com via Kol's on Pinterest
That Martha ain't got nothin' on my Mama, but I'll give her that this is a brilliant idea.
I have no idea why anyone would want to do that with tomato paste though?
Yuck! This idea? This idea was destined for dog food!
I know right?! Why didn't we think of this sooner? Frozen dog treats with virtually NO effort! What an awesome idea. This one is for all you pups who can't get your pawrents into the kitchen – if you can't get them to try this recipe, then you're DOOMED!
Here's what you need:
- 1 or more cans of meaty dog food. We like this tasty 96% Buffalo kind – it also comes in chicken, beef, turkey & tripe.
- Carefully open both ends of the can with a can opener.
- Remove one metal end and discard it. Leave the other in place.
- Wrap the can in plastic and freeze until solid
- When it's frozen, use the one metal end to push the frozen food out the other side.
- Slice off as much frozen snack as you want to give your dog. (Kol gets a 1/4″ slice)
- Rewrap & return the rest to the freezer.
It's that easy peasy!
You could store treats for a couple months this way, but seriously? They'll never last that long!

Which Australian industries are set to soar in 2016?
Today we start a two part series called, "Which Australian industries are set to soar and fall in 2016?"
According to a recent IBISWorld report there are a number of Australian industries set to rise and fall over the next 12 months, the question is: "How will it impact the companies on the S&P/ASX 200?
According to analysts at IBISWorld the cotton growing industry is in for a bumper year in 2016, expecting rapid growth of 19.2%. Other industries set to boom in 2016 include internet publishing and broadcasting, organic farming, houseware retailing, and university and other higher education, which we'll discuss in…
Today we start a two part series called, "Which Australian industries are set to soar and fall in 2016?"
According to a recent IBISWorld report there are a number of Australian industries set to rise and fall over the next 12 months, the question is: "How will it impact the companies on the S&P/ASX 200?
According to analysts at IBISWorld the cotton growing industry is in for a bumper year in 2016, expecting rapid growth of 19.2%. Other industries set to boom in 2016 include internet publishing and broadcasting, organic farming, houseware retailing, and university and other higher education, which we'll discuss in this installment, Part 1.
Some industries however, are in for a less than exciting year, which we'll discuss in Part 2.
(The list of shares in this article is by no means exhaustive, but simply an indication of the types of companies and industries to watch for in 2016).
The Winners
(Source: IBISWorld)
Cotton growing in Australia
IBISWorld projects that the cotton growing industry will fly in 2015-16, growing by 19.2% to reach $879 million. The industry is expected to recover strongly from a poor performance in 2014-15, when revenue fell by 62.7%.
The reasons are that a marginal increase in global cotton prices coupled with increased cotton production are expected to contribute to this substantial revenue growth in 2015-16.
According to IBISWorld senior industry analyst Spencer Little, "the cotton growing industry is highly volatile, with revenue movements ranging between 136.1% growth and 62.7% decline over the past five years."
Internet publishing and broadcasting in Australia
Over the past five years, consumers have continued to migrate towards the internet for services previously provided in newspapers, such as real estate, car and job advertising.
The main source of industry growth in the current year is expected to be the entrance of popular video streaming websites, such as Netflix, Stan and Presto. These players do not compete directly with other internet publishers and broadcasters. Rather, they are taking market share away from free-to-air and pay-TV providers, as consumers grow tired of waiting for new content to be broadcast on traditional mediums.
Advertisers love the internet, "The ability to easily search with filters for specific results makes the internet the prime medium for these forms of advertising," explained Mr Little.
Shares to watch include, Webjet Limited (ASX: WEB), SEEK Limited (ASX: SEK), Carsales.Com Ltd (ASX: CAR), REA Group Limited (ASX:REA), Seven West Media Ltd (ASX: SWM), Nine Entertainment Co Holdings Ltd (ASX: NEC), Ten Network Holdings Limited (ASX: TEN), Southern Cross Media Group Ltd (ASX: SXL).
Organic farming in Australia
The organic farming industry is forecast to fly in 2015-16, with revenue expected to grow by 5.6% to reach $733.8 million. Demand for organic products in Australia and overseas has risen as consumers have become increasingly aware of the perceived health benefits and environmental effects of their food choices.
"The industry is expected to continue to grow strongly as organic consumption becomes more mainstream," Mr Little said. The nation's two major supermarkets, Woolworths Limited (ASX: WOW) and Coles, which belongs to Wesfarmers Ltd (ASX: WES), now stock greater amounts and wider ranges of organic produce, making the purchase of organic products more convenient.
Shares to watch include, Australian Agricultural Company Ltd (ASX: AAC), Ridley Corporation Ltd (ASX: RIC) and Capilano Honey Ltd (ASX:CZZ).
Houseware retailing in Australia
Housewares revenue is projected to grow by 5.1% in 2015-16, but by only 1.9% in 2016-17. The slower growth in 2016-17 can be attributed to a projected fall in consumer spending and a decline in residential building construction activity, amid fears of an oversupply in multi-unit apartments.
Over the past five years, demand for houseware products has grown due to a rise in residential building construction, an increase in new dwelling commencements and alterations to existing dwellings. "Industry revenue growth has been further supported by rising household discretionary income, which has boosted consumers' ability to spend on housewares," Mr Little explained.
Shares to watch include, McPherson's Ltd (ASX: MCP), Harvey Norman Holdings Limited (ASX: HVN), Myer Holdings Ltd (ASX: MYR) and Reject Shop Ltd (ASX:TRS).
University and other higher education in Australia
Revenue in the university and other higher education industry is expected to grow at a compound annual rate of 4.6% over the five years through 2015-16, to reach $29.6 billion. Revenue is projected to rise by 3.6% in 2015-16, driven by increased student enrolments, including both domestic and international students.
"International student enrolments grew by 8.1% in 2014, driven by preferable student visa arrangements and a depreciation of the Australian dollar," said Mr Little.
Shares to watch include, 3P Learning Ltd (ASX: 3PL), Navitas Limited (ASX: NVT) and Australian Careers Network Ltd (ASX: ACO).
Stay tuned for our next installment, Part 2, were we'll take a closer look at the losers, and how it will impact the companies on the S&P/ASX 200.

This is a discussion on How about a shirt that says you are carrying? within the Open Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by adric22 Lets have a little competition and see who does better. If you can shoot more accurately than me, I'll listen to ...
Time yourself next time you are at the range. From concealment, draw, chamber a round, fire a warning shot, focus on the threat and fire a second round in a lethal area. If it take you longer than 1.5 seconds to accomplish that, the chances are you just cost the life of a hostage. These are the things we are trying to get across.
I watch Jerry Miculek shoot a balloon at 230 yards using .22 held upside down pulling the trigger with his pinky. Can it be done, sure. I can't but you may. The balloon isn't shooting back and if he misses, which he did 3 times before he hit it, no one is going to die.
You have been given some great advice from a lot of people, many, including myself are instructors and mentors. I fear that you have an aversion to thinking that isn't yours. I hope I'm wrong.
Anyway, I'm done. Best of luck

adric22, you and your wife should look into taking some force on force classes. This may change your outlook on self defense and allow you to experience a little adrenaline rush and defend yourself in real time using airsoft weapons so you can try out your hypothesis on defending yourself first hand and see what works and doesn't work.
here are a couple options near you:
June 25-26, 2011 - Zero To Five Feet - Pistol Gunfighting - Orange, TX
July 16-17, 2011 - Zero To Five Feet - Pistol Gunfighting - Liberty Hill, TX
September 22-23, 2011 - Zero To Five Feet - Pistol Gunfighting - Houston, TX
I am sure others can recommend more...

You are an nice fellow. You are a self proclaimed geek. You mean well. You CC legally. You come to DC to learn. You are a law abiding citizen and a fellow Texan. You really put yourself out here with "controversial ideas". I respect your right to your opinion and the fact that you put yourself out here. By putting yourself out there, you can grow to great heights if you are willing to change. Most people avoid or shut down which can protect but stunt growth in certain circumstances. I know this is true for me.
Your willingness to stick with this thread can mean all the difference in the world to both your self defense and the defense of your family. I strongly urge you to stay determined and stick with the suggestions in this thread. I hope you allow us as a group to help polish some of your tactical/psychological edges. Your issues, to me, are mostly psychological at source.
You state you are a really nice person. I agree. Your posts scream this.
You are nice to a self defense fault.
I totally agree with you: You are out to shoot nobody - likely ever.
I offer the following evidence:
Your shirt idea: You want something passive (the shirt) to help you actively tell bad guys to stay away. I see your positive intention. However -tactically - its a dangerous idea. This flies in the face of being a Grey Man. The shirt, ironically, increases the risk of bringing exactly what you are ill equipped mentally to deal with - life is weird this way. Bring on the Monkey Dancers that want to tangle with the "Geek with a Glock" shirt. (I strongly suggest you study both books by Rory Miller). He has martial arts background like you and is the Real Deal.
You had a brutal, nearly violent confrontation with three thugs, brutal for most civilians on this forum, let alone your personality (as I think I see it). They hadn't entered your car or tried to enter your car (no castle law yet), but one of the thugs had a "deadly weapon" with the brass knuckles. IMO, you did right by TX law and shooting them was illegal at that point unless you saw a gun (immediate lethal projectile penetration from distance.) You legally can draw down on them at that point (Sec. 9.04.) due to the disparity of force, blocking your egress, threatening posture, brass knuckle deployment.....pick any one/combo/all. But you had your family in the car....what happens if they respond with gun and begin shooting. You kept your family safe and deescalated by "taking it."
You sucked it up. Seriously dude, well done.
But could you really have shot them if they attemped to get in your car (ie escalated the threat to carry it out). I suggest at best maybe - likely not - given your warning shot ideas, shirt, fail to shoot baseball bat perp attacking your family member etc mentioned in previous threads.
I really respect your unwillingness to potentially neutralize/kill someone. But your unwillingness goes to an extreme when you want to use warning shots to a baseball bat wielding perp that wants to beat down a family member. This is a tipoff. Your niceness can get you and your family killed.
It may be worse for you to feel mean than to protect your family (if mean-ness is the feeling that equates to using your glock to neutralize the bat wielding perp). That feeling, whatever it is, is ABSOLUTELY CRITICAL to understand, transform, and/or dissolve. That is the feeling that stands in the way. Note that it does have a positive intention somewhere on some deep level.
Where does the rubber meet the road for you? You have a legal green light in Texas with the bat attacking perp. Shoot the guy into the ground with intense focused concentration with full intention to send every round you fire into him until hes no longer advancing to threaten.
You seem to be at a crossroads. Getting this out and helping you through it - if this is the case - is an incredibly important thread for a certain portion of posters at DC forums - sticky-worthy IMO.
I suggest the following:
- Know Texas use of force law backwards and forwards. Take another CHL review course from a top notch CLH instructor in your area, preferably an ex LEO with years of service. He has experience dealing with perps and neutralizing threats.
- Rory Miller's books -read, reread, study.
- Ayoob books
- Tactical FoF training with quality instructors. Some names include:
- AMOK!, Suarez, Central Texas Combatives. Call them for local contacts in your area. Its aggressive FoF. You have to train yourself as a nice guy to do Really Uncomfortable Feeling Stuff. For me, the more uncomfortable it feels, the more I need it. Thats the emotional paradox. I force myself to do it to grow. You can do it. You already put yourself out there with this post.
- Post at DC about mental (legal) hesitancies you may have in the application of lethal force as relates to Scenarios. Keep your scenarios simple (KISS) for now. Calibrate and discuss tactics/strategy or feelings that come up that get in the way with quality members. You know who they are. There are many here.
Find your own middle ground that allows you to be a nice guy in your own way and still act assertively within the law to neutralize a grave/deadly threat to you/your family using your Glock.
Thank you for holding yourself out there.
You already have it within you.
Find it.

I came across this video and thought you might benefit from it. The thing that I got was the minimal time the store owner had to react and the fact that his mind was set as to his actions. Just look at it and think about it.

Hey Guys and Gals,
I have got to say, as a new member I am very impressed with the way everyone conducts themselves on this site. As a teacher and mentor to many people who work for me or with me in my field of expertice,( sales ) after 25+ years I too still learn new things or ways to do buisness from people who have more experience then me, or people that are new to the training that I give them, and just suggest a different or better way to do something that I might not have thought of.
I have been home with serious back and hip issues for 13 weeks now. I have not been able to do much as am having problems just walking. Needless to say I have had alot of time on my hands. I have literally spent hours just getting to know the site and the people who post on it. I have learned more by just reading what everyone else posts and realize that C/C is something that is to be taken QUITE seriously and not to be taken lightly. Since reading alot of posts in regards to training, my wife and I have signed up for classes in our area.I myself have been hunting and fishing for years and although I concider myself farily knowledgable in regards to gun safety and everything that goes along with being a responsible gun owner, I basically knew nothing about C/C other then to go down to the courthouse, apply for my permit and was told I could carry a concealed weapon after passing all backround checks. I really APPRECIATE the information that I have learned from this site and all its members, as it has been a very eye opening experience for me. Just makes me think that there are alot of other people out there with quite a bit more knowledge then I have. I would take any suggestions as constructive and not demeaning. I just want to thank everyone for everything that I have learned and that I am never to old to learn something new from someone with more experience then me.
Welcome to the site. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Training is a journey, the more you get, the smoother the journey. Get as much as you can as often as you can.
Train like your life depends on it, because it does.

This is similar to the reasons why I don't broadcast my toys on facebook. Why let BGs know what you have to steal and where to come to get it?
Granted straw purchases are the number one way they acquire weapons but why let people know what you have? There was a poster on here whose own cousin? and his friends Home invaded him and stole his weapons because he knew he had them. Discretion and surprise are in your favor until you start broadcasting things. Criminals are getting more violent and more brazen with each new generation. More people = more crime. Be physically and mentally fit, train, be aware, and have discretion.... that recipe will give you the best chance of survival in the low percentage case that you are a victim of a violent crime.
I also understand people learn at different speeds. There is always more to learn...tactics, mindset...but nothing beats force on force where your "good ideas" on how things "should" go when dealing with a BG don't match with reality...and getting your clock cleaned in training is better than being hurt or killed in real life....High recommend seeking additional training beyond putting holes in paper.

Good entertainment
FOUR WORDS is all it takes to sum up this year's SEMO District Fair entertainment selections: "Jeremiah was a bullfrog." Good job, fair committee members.
Good fair fare
I'M REALLY excited about the fair. Sammy Kershaw's pretty cool, and Three Dog Night is way cooler. Thank you to SEMO District Fair for bringing Three Dog Night. I know I probably won't be at the fair for the livestock, considering I'm not a country girl.
Spending like drunks
Republicans control both houses of the Missouri Legislature. Once they got the power of the purse, they abandoned parsimonious conservative principles, threw caution to the wind and spent money like drunken sailors.
Whimsical leave
TODAY'S MISSOURIAN has an article about the shortage of police officers in Cape Girardeau. The chief of police states he is 13 officers short and cites various reasons. But the one that intrigues me is the leave of absence granted to one sergeant. The city ignored the manpower shortage and allowed a supervisory rank officer to take a leave to run for a political office. This seems rather whimsical to me and raises the following issues. If they are so extremely short, why did they grant this particular leave? If they can get by for months without this supervisory position, do they really need it anyway? And are some of the other shortages caused by such seemingly irresponsible acts of poor judgment?
No money for banks
WITH GAS almost $2 a gallon and milk over $3 a gallon, just where are people are going to get the money to put in all the new banks being built in town?
Warning to snakes
SOMEONE SAID on TV that some snakes are good and won't bother you if you leave them alone. Let me tell you something, there's only one good snake -- a dead snake. If I see one in my yard, it's going to be dead, I guarantee it.
Apparel advice
I'VE BEEN noticing the pictures of high school students who have received awards or scholarships or have done great things. The young men are dressed in coats and ties and lots of extra clothes, and the young women are in formal dresses that are extremely revealing. This is a problem. In our society, when you wear extra clothes like the young men are wearing, it's a symbol of power. When you don't wear enough clothes and your skin is revealed, it's a symbol of being vulnerable. We need to figure out a way for our young women to wear clothes that are fun and exciting yet don't make them quite so vulnerable.
Flip side of speeding
RECENTLY THERE have been numerous comments on speeding. Replies have been if you don't want a ticket, then don't speed. Let me give you a flip side. For two years I tried to correct my speeding habit. However, all this created was road rage in other drivers, particularly in the school zone on Oak Street in Jackson. Even though I reported this problem to the Jackson police several times, they did nothing until I got irate. Their attitude was that I was the one who was creating a dangerous situation by going the speed limit. I now go 30 mph in that 15 mph zone like everyone else.
They're important
THE FIRE department is one of the most important things a city can have. Maybe the reason people didn't show for the public forum is because they're going to vote for the fire sales tax. And the police department is important too. Both these things keep the city running.
How can you tell?
I THINK the news media need to revamp their terminology in describing the people in Iraq who are killing the forces trying to free the Iraqi people. The media refer to them as civilians. How can you tell who's a civilian or who's a terrorist or anything else, because there is no organized army that's opposing us?
Freedom comes first
THOSE OPPOSED to the congressional budget because of rising deficits won't have to worry about deficits if defense priority needs are not adequately financed in our country's war on terrorism and the defense of our nation. Eliminating terrorism will require sacrifices from all freedom-loving people here in America and throughout the world. Our brave soldiers and coalition are making the supreme efforts and sacrifices to protect our freedoms.
But you buy more gas
COMMON SENSE, please. Your statement that Americans pay more for milk than gas is surely not true in the total amounts spent. You have to buy lots more gas than milk.
Police: Do your jobs
I DISAGREE with the comment that we need to pay our cops better in order for them to do their job. If they do not like what they are being paid, they should seek employment elsewhere. They signed up for their jobs and knew what they would be paid, so they should perform. To say they are not getting paid enough to perform all their duties is unprofessional.

Project Description
Hello, I need a professional writer to research and write a short report for me based on things that could destroy a business. actually I need it to have 7 KEY THINGS a business must have but the catch is I need this report to be entirely based on MOBILE MARKETING AND MOBILE SMS ALERTS COUPONS ECT and why a business needs to implement mobile marketing... basically 7 things in this field if a business is NOT DOING in today's technology driven world then how it can destroy their business. I would also like one point to be about REputation management and how they can use the power o mobile to increase positive reviews also another point i need in this is how they need to be optimized for mobile search because most of todays searches for a product or business is done while potential customers are on the go on their smart phones!
we have decided to give everyone a chance at this project so we are re posting it as I got approval from the other partners have given approval for this now... so this is open to everyone who is a professional writer/regardless of where you are located. keep in mind all work must be 100% original as we will be applying for copyrights on all material submitted to us so make sure you do not copy anything from anywhere else all work must be hand written original fully by you... we also have more writing work we will need done on weekly basis so this can become a long term job for you if you provide top quality work and are reliable and on time!

This grant seeks a biophysical understanding of tissue morphology: how do we explain the characteristic shapes and levels of organization of cellular tissues? Genetics and cell biology have obtained much information about the biomolecules that are important in regulating morphology. However, the link between molecular activities on the subcellular (nm) scale and morphology on the tissue scale (mm) has not been made. To establish such a connection, the grant draws on the abilities of an interdisciplinary research team, combining the cell biology and genetic expertise of the group of Richard Carthew (Northwestern University) with expertise in the physics and theoretical mechanics of soft materials from Sascha Hilgenfeldt's group (University of Illinois). The main objective of the project is the mathematical modeling of epithelial tissue mechanics. In published results, the team found cells in the Drosophila eye epithelium adopt shapes and neighbor relations that achieve passive energy minimization. Forces along the plane of cell membranes become balanced, leading to a mechanical equilibrium. Important contributing forces are those due to intercellular adhesion and actin cortical contraction. We propose that force imbalances naturally lead to a moving tissue system in which the changes in cell contacts and shapes result in the tissue reaching stasis with a local energy minimum.
We aim to test this hypothesis by engineering force imbalances in certain cells and describing the static end-result. If correct, the mathematical model will accurately predict the mechanical outcomes of such experiments. Extending the hypothesis further, one might consider that morphogenesis is a progressive series of local energy minima reached in response to force change.
We aim to test this hypothesis with a mathematical model that describes a very defined mechanical pathway in the eye, where four cells change contact with each other. Will the model predict the mechanical features and ways in which adhesive and contractive forces change over time and location? Lastly, we know that other forces exist within tissues but do not understand their relative contributions to tissue mechanics. To achieve this, we will develop a mathematical model that also considers cellular viscoelasticity, fluid pressure, matrix adhesion, and organelle displacement. The model will assume that these forces balance in three dimensions, leading to a passive energy minimization. Understanding the biophysical nature of tissue morphology will have great benefit for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering.
Much of the research concerning how cells and tissues form has focused mainly on genetic factors. This proposal, Tissue Morphogenesis: A Study of Molecular Machines and Cell Mechanics seeks to study how certain mechanical forces at the cellular level influence tissue formation. Identifying these influences has important implications for medical science, understanding the formation of healthy tissues and how diseased tissue morphology occurs.

Student loan rates to rise with 10-Year Treasury note
College students in the U.S. who take out federal loans are likely to see interest rates rise – potentially by a percentage point or more – in the coming academic year.
Last year, the government began to peg rates on most student loans to the Treasury 10-year note.
Stafford loans, the most widely borrowed, carried an undergraduate rate of 3.86 percent for the 2013-14 school year.
In the past three months, the 10-year yield has traded 0.80 to 1 percentage point higher than a year ago, which means education borrowing costs might rise.
Interest rates for the school year beginning July 1 will be determined following the Treasury's 10-year note auction May 7.
While interest rates are fixed for the life of an education loan, borrowers take out a separate loan for each school year. Federal loans make up most of the $1.2 trillion in outstanding education debt, which has become a drag on the economy in recent years as many borrowers struggle to repay.
This year, the interest rate on a graduate Stafford loans was 5.41 percent, while PLUS loans for graduate students or parents paying their undergraduate children's college costs were set at 6.41 percent.
The Congressional Budget Office projected rates for the 2014-15 school year of 5.09 percent for undergraduate Stafford loans, 6.64 percent for graduate Staffords, and 7.64 percent for PLUS loans, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau reported.
Even with a probable increase, rates on most government loans will still be below the levels before Congress began tying them to the 10-year note.
In the academic years starting in 2011 and 2012, the Stafford rate for undergraduate and graduate students regardless of their income level was 6.8 percent, while the rate on PLUS loans was 7.9 percent.
While rates are rising, federal loans are still a safer option than private loans, said Pauline Abernathy, vice president of the Institute for College Access & Success, a nonprofit research and advocacy group in Oakland.
Private loans often carry variable interest rates and don't have the same kinds of protections as government loans, such as income-based repayment, Abernathy said.
In setting the rates last year, Congress used as a base the yield on the Treasury 10-year note auctioned prior to June 1 of each year. That rate was set at 1.81 percent in May 2013. For undergraduate Stafford loans, it added 2.05 percentage points; for graduate Staffords, it added 3.6 percentage points; and for PLUS loans, it added 4.6 percentage points.
Treasury rates were distorted last year, said Michael Pond, head of global inflation-market strategy for Barclays PLC. The Federal Reserve
purchased $540 billion of Treasury securities and $480 billion of mortgage bonds last year at a combined pace of $85 billion per month to help keep borrowing costs low and stimulate the economy, he said.
When Congress changed how it sets student loan rates, it also agreed to cap them, at 8.25 percent for undergraduate Stafford loans, 9.5 percent for graduate Stafford loans and 10.5 percent for PLUS loans.
Students who didn't benefit from the new rate-setting method were those from low-income families who qualified for subsidized Stafford loans. They went to a 3.86 percent rate in 2013-14 from 3.4 percent in the previous two years.

When I was a young associate an eternity ago, my firm held an internal seminar on developing new business. Almost every associate attended, with pen and notebook ready to write down the means by which riches would be obtained. The top rainmaker stood up and said, "The best source of new business is….." And then he waited, a long time really, until the silence was so acute you could hear the proverbial pin drop. After a suitably long pause, he finished "….old business." Ta-da! We all looked on in stunned disbelief. How would new business from old business help any of us become rainmakers? In point of fact, it wouldn't. At least not then.
That lesson, which pops into my head ever time I deal with the phone company, the cable company, and all those other companies that give better deals to new customers than they do to old customers, has served me well over time. There are so many firms or lawyers that put much more effort into winning new clients than they do into making old clients happy. They are missing the boat. Old clients not only can give you more business, they are (or should be) your best source of referrals.
The moral of the story? People are going to focus on new business–it is a part of our DNA. But do not do so at the expense of ensuring your current clients. Indeed, it is essential to make sure you are capable of wow-ing current clients before shifting focus.

Keep up the good work, by bringing up the shocking behind-the-scenes activity of Bank of America, on behalf of the AGAPE victims. Certainly, any federal funds targeted to be distributed or issued to this bank, by taxpayers, which includes the victims of this fraud, should first be lessened by an appropriate amount of $413M being placed into an escrow account until the matter is resolved.
The affront to depositors of any banking institution, alleged to have been perpetrated by Bank of America, should be intolerable to all of us. Government officials, especially in New York, should be climbing all over this to ensure that their constituents are heard from – and that their losses should be mitigated by any and all means necessary.
Indeed, the Obama administration should be called out on their lack of concern for the common man and woman in this case. Unlike the Madoff victims, in many cases, these people lost the very funds they relied upon to survive – let alone golf and vacation in the Palm Beaches. These were and are ordinary people who have been devastated – and yet not a single governmental official, local, State or national, has stood up to the plate to help these victims.
Where is the voice of Senator Schumer when New Yorkers have been pillaged? Where is the outrage by Governor Patterson when his constituents need help? Where is the vigilance to duty and obligation to society from Mr. Cuomo in the face of such fraud? I call for each and every elected official in the entire State of New York to stand up for these victims.
The checks and balances are in place to recognize what you do to help the average citizen. The checks and balances are that the balance of government can be changed, when a pissed off citizenry goes to the ballot box and puts a check near the name of the politician who did something right for a change. Hope and change will come alive at time of elections. For your sake, you better Hope you did all you can to help the AGAPE victims, or your place in government will Change hands.
These guys deserved to lose all their money. Bank of America responsible for them giving their life savings to a convicted felon to earn returns that would make a loan shark blush and they want TAXPAYERS to pay for it???? No – y'all can try and find your money – you give it to nick – he has it, go get it.
sicko ur an ******* . noones asking any taxpayers to pay anything , and if u have any info u would know that BOA was working out of cosmos office in hauppauge ,,,,not reporting to boa office but to agape office ….again shut the **** up *******

Super Saturday dishes up five games, including two trans-Tasman clashes and two derbies, that's sure to whet your appetite.
Super Saturday dishes up five matches, including two trans-Tasman clashes and two derbies, that's sure to whet your appetite as Round Eleven continues.
With the Lions taking a breather and bagging their first four points since beating the Cheetahs, ten teams will go head to head in a bid to either continue their surge towards the play-offs or rescue their campaign.
The Reds will be looking to extend their franchise record of consecutive wins to eight when they open up the weekend's proceedings against the Hurricanes. The 'Canes have struggled this year with only two wins from nine outings, they lie 13th in the competition with no chance of making the play-offs.
The Waratahs then entertain the Melbourne Rebels, before the Crusaders will look to recharge their season against the Western Force in Perth.
The defending champion Bulls – who are well off the pace this year – host fellow strugglers the Chiefs in Pretoria. And to end off, the Stormers return after a week's rest to tackle the Sharks at Newlands.
Hurricanes v Reds
The Hurricanes are back in Wellington from their two-match tour of South Africa where they play host to the tournament-leading Reds at Westpac Stadium on Saturday.
The Reds may be top of the standings, but have not yet faced New Zealand opposition in the 2011 Super Rugby season – until now.
With 35 points still up for grabs in the Super Rugby season, the focus has switched to the misfiring 'Canes across the Tasman with the Queenslanders aiming for a record eighth win on the trot.
The Hurricanes host a Reds side in top form having beaten their traditional interstate rivals the Waratahs 19-15 in last week's tenth round to claim equal top spot on the points table.
Big second half defence against the Waratahs was the key to the Reds' seventh straight competition win, after pivot Quade Cooper had scored all their points including a solo try late in the first half.
The Reds (on 39 points) have now opened up an 11-point lead in the Australian conference standings over the next best Waratahs (28) and are level with the Blues at the top of the overall pecking order.
The Hurricanes are coming off a win and a loss in the Republic, and are returning to home territory for the first of three remaining home games in 2011. After this they host the Force in Palmerston North and the Lions in Wellington.
Despite missing some key players, including Ma'a Nonu (eye), Cory Jane (hamstring) and Serge Lilo (ankle) who were all injured in the defeat against the Sharks, all the focus will be on ending the visitors' winning run in Wellington.
Prediction: Despite a series of records behind the Reds already this season – including a clean sweep of South African teams, the Brumbies victory in Canberra and now the 'Tahs – we have a sneaky suspicion the Queenslanders are in for an upset. Hurricanes to win by five!
The teams:
Hurricanes: 15 Andre Taylor, 14 Alapati Leiua, 13 Jayden Hayward, 12 Charlie Ngatai, 11 Hosea Gear, 10 Aaron Cruden, 9 Chris Eaton, 8 Victor Vito, 7 Jack Lam, 6 Faifili Levave, 5 James Broadhurst, 4 Jason Eaton, 3 Neemia Tialata, 2 Andrew Hore (capt), 1 John Schwalger.
Replacements: 16 Dane Coles, 17 Anthony Perenise, 18 Jeremy Thrush, 19 Mark Reddish, 20 Tyson Keats, 21 Julian Savea, 22 Beauden Barrett.
Reds: 15 Ben Lucas, 14 Luke Morahan, 13 Will Chambers, 12 Mike Harris, 11 Dom Shipperley, 10 Quade Cooper, 9 Will Genia, 8 Scott Higginbotham, 7 Beau Robinson, 6 Adam Wallace-Harrison, 5 James Horwill (c), 4 Van Humphries, 3 Guy Shepherdson, 2 James Hanson, 1 Greg Holmes.
Replacements: 16 Saia Faingaa, 17 Albert Anae, 18 Rob Simmons, 19 Radike Samo, 20 Liam Gill, 21 Anthony Faingaa, 22 Kimami Sitauti.
Date: Saturday, April 30
Kick-off: 19:35 (06:35 GMT)
Venue: Westpac Stadium, Wellington
Referee: Keith Brown (New Zealand)
Assistant referees: Glen Jackson (New Zealand), James McPhail (New Zealand)
Television match official: Mike Fraser (New Zealand)
Waratahs v Melbourne Rebels
The Rebels will be out for revenge in this all-Aussie derby rematch against the Waratahs, who handed the Super Rugby newbies an embarrassing 43-0 loss in the opening round.
Both sides will be striving to make amends for away defeats last time out, while the Rebels will have the added motivation of repaying the Waratahs for dampening their opening-day celebrations.
Last weekend's results squeezed the Waratahs out of the race for the finals, with the New South Welshmen now six points adrift of the sixth-placed Sharks and eleven behind the Australian Conference-leading Reds.
The Rebels, twelfth on the overall standings, slipped to the foot of the Australian Conference after their loss to the Blues – who have now become the tournament leaders following their win over the Highlanders earlier today.
The Melbourne side have been inconsistent all season and have often struggled away from home – their only away victory thus far coming against the Force in Perth.
The Rebels defence, in particular, has come in for criticism in recent weeks (they've conceded a staggering 43 tries in nine matches), which has led to the axing of pivot Danny Cipriani.
Rebels coach Rod Macqueen finally ran out of patience with Cipriani's defensive shortcomings, dropping his star import to the bench for the Sydney Football Stadium match.
The former England international paid the price for a particularly poor outing against the Blues last week, with James Hilgendorf regaining the number ten jersey he started the season in.
Hilgendorf survived just 10 minutes of the Rebels' forgettable Super Rugby debut when the Waratahs spanked the tournament newcomers in Melbourne. The 20-year-old succumbed to a shoulder injury and Cipriani has had the playmaker role ever since.
Since that season-opening mismatch, the Waratahs have won four games and the Rebels three.
"They're a very different team now. They've evolved over the last nine or 10 weeks, which is what you would expect from a new team," said 'Tahs coach Chris Hickey
"I've seen them develop various aspects of their game significantly."
Prediction: The Rebels won't get nilled like they were in Round One, and whilst we can't see a similar scoreline… another defeat is likely. 'Tahs by ten.
The teams:
Waratahs: 15 Kurtley Beale, 14 Sosene Anesi, 13 Ryan Cross, 12 Tom Carter, 11 Lachie Turner, 10 Berrick Barnes, 9 Luke Burgess, 8 Ben Mowen, 7 Pat McCutcheon, 6 Dave Dennis, 5 Sitaleki Timani, 4 Dean Mumm, 3 Sekope Kepu, 2 Tatafu Polota-Nau, 1 Benn Robinson.
Replacements: 16 John Ulugia, 17 Al Baxter, 18 Kane Douglas, 19 Chris Alcock, 20 Brendan McKibbin, 21 Daniel Halangahu, 20 Tom Kingston.
Melbourne Rebels: 15 Julian Huxley, 14 Lachlan Mitchell, 13 Mark Gerrard, 12 Stirling Mortlock (c), 11 Peter Betham,

Akuma, from ''[[VideoGame/StreetFighterII Super Street Fighter II Turbo]]'', makes an appearance as a GuestFighter SecretCharacter, thus paving the way for the eventual coming of VideoGame/CapcomVsWhatever.The game featured a unique exaggerated and animesque style accompanied by massive screen-blasting [[LimitBreak Super Combos]] and the ultra-high jumps needed to avoid them.Naturally, the game was a hit, and it was followed in 1995 with '''VideoGame/MarvelSuperHeroes'''.----!This game shows examples of:* AdaptationalHeroism: Colossus was actually a member of Magneto's Acolytes at the point in time in the comics when this game was released, and while the game's code shows references to this story arc were originally going to be included (he was going to have the option of choosing whether or not to join up with Magneto, apparently) they were ultimately DummiedOut and he decisively rejects Magneto in the final product.* AnIcePerson: Iceman.** Also Storm in some of her attacks.* AscendedExtra: Sentinel.* AttractMode* BarrierWarrior: One of Magneto's most frustrating moves. He can erect an electromagnetic barrier at will which makes him completely invulnerable.* BigBad: Magneto.** TheDragon: Juggernaut.* BloodKnight: Akuma* BlowYouAway: Storm uses wind attacks as a few of her specials, and combines it with AnIcePerson for one of her Supers.* CallingYourAttacks:** '''''[[MemeticMutation BEHOLD!]]''''' '''''[[Comicbook/{{X-Men}} OPTIC BLAST!]]'''''* TheCameo: Several:** The Acolytes Exodus, Delgado and the Kleinstock brothers Sven and Harlan all cameo in every character's ending. A fifth Acolyte, Anne-Marie, was to be included too, but she was DummiedOut for reasons unknown.** Forge cameos in Storm's ending.** Jean Grey cameos in Cyclops's and Wolverine's endings.** Mojo cameos in Spiral's ending and as an ice sculpture in Iceman's ending.** Professor X cameos directly in Colossus's ending, as well as appearing as the last sprite in the credits roll.* CombatTentacles: Omega Red* DeathOrGloryAttack: Storm's Hailstorm Super.* DespairEventHorizon: Virtually every ending has Magneto question why they fought him and ask to join his Acolytes. When they refuse, Magneto's response is always to leave him to his fate, which is going up with Avalon.* DivingKick: Akuma's Tenma Kujinkyaku actually originated in this game and then made its way back to his home series in the ''VideoGame/StreetFighterAlpha'' series.* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: This game is often times a completely different animal from every Marvel fighting game Capcom would later make.** The game in general is slower-paced and shows more ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' roots in the combat; although it had chain combos, they were much more awkward, and it had many restrictions placed in the combat system as a whole that prevent the game being played quite as crazily as later entries. If one puts ''a lot'' of time into the game, a lot of the craziness will be there, but in somewhat different of a fashion than later Marvel games.** The ManaMeter is completely different. Whiffing normal moves does not fill it like it does in every pre-''[=MvC3=]'' game (although special whiffs still fill it). Escaping throws and off-the-ground hits, normal abilities in all later games, instead ''cost meter'' here; this is particularly dangerous in this game because of how insane the throw damage is at times. Some characters wouldn't even just tech throws, they would instead ''counter'' throw the opponent during their throw attempt. Many characters have "X-Abilities" usable with only half of the meter, some of these (such as flight for Storm and Sentinel) later become standard moves.** Characters get dizzied insanely quickly; often any even small combo will dizzy. ''Marvel Super Heroes'' would also have a dizzy mechanic, and indeed dizzy combos were still possible, but they were made much harder and games after that would generally only dizziness to something of a ComboBreaker mechanic used after utterly long combos.** Launchers share very little in common with later games. After hitting with a launcher, you have to input a regular super jump motion to cancel it instead of just tapping up, and they often hit at an angle making a follow-up much less straight forward to do unless you have the opponent cornered.** Although some of the later games have weight systems, it is ''much'' more significant in this game, making it so several combos only work on certain characters and the effects of launching are completely different.** There is no [[VideoGame/StreetFighterAlpha Alpha Counter]]-like mechanic; instead, one of the alternate uses for each character's super is that they can all be used as counters.** The characters have much fewer moves in general and many of the fighters that showed up in later games prior to ''[=MvC2=]'' have completely different movelist. Wolverine for example only has his Berserker Barrage as a super, has a HealingFactor move all his later incarnations lack, and has a much more limited chain combo system.** Characters who could fly (e.g Storm, Sentinel, Magneto) were still able to block while flying. Later games would not allow characters to block in flight mode.** Several of the stages can actually change over time, such as breaking floors or having destroyable obstacles, actually significantly affecting the combat sometimes. ''MSH'' would make only one stage non-standard and all the other games would generally try to make battles on certain stages indistinguishable from one another.** There is a sudden death mechanic activated when a match is effectively tied at the end.* EverythingsBetterWithDinosaurs: In Wolverine's stage, Savage Land.* GratuitousNinja: Psylocke* GuestFighter: [[Franchise/StreetFighter Akuma]], as a SecretCharacter.* HighlyVisibleNinja: Psylocke again. Silver Samurai's stage also has background ninjas in bright purple that periodically SmokeOut.* HumongousMecha: Sentinel.* ImmuneToFlinching: Juggernaut in this game won't flinch unless struck by a barrage of blows or a particularly powerful one. This may very well be the TropeCodifier of this concept in fighting games, or at least where it started to get popularized. * JigglePhysics: Psylocke is quite bouncy.* KatanasAreJustBetter: Silver Samurai.* LadyMacbeth: Spiral's ending sees her talk Mojo into launching a new show, "[[AlienInvasion The Fall of Earth]]".* LifeDrain: Omega Red could drain the health or super meter of an opponent, doing so would refill his health/super meter.* LightningBruiser: Sentinel, especially when flying.* MacGuffin: As usual, Omega Red is hunting for the Carbonadum Synthesizer to stabilize his mutant death factor. His ending has him find it laying hilariously out in the open in a random Avalon hallway.* MightyGlacier: Juggernaut is as unstoppably strong as he is in the comics, but he moves rather slowly and purposefully here.* MythologyGag: Mojo makes a joke about [[VideoGame/XMen2CloneWars cloning everyone]] in Spiral's ending.* PragmaticAdaptation: ''Children of the Atom's'' storyline is a LighterAndSofter retelling of the ''[[http://marvel.com/comics/events/249/fatal_attractions Fatal Attractions]]'' story, reusing its basic premise and adding in a throwaway line in the manual about Magneto recruiting mutant villains to justify the presence of characters like Omega Red and the Juggernaut.* PunchClockVillain: Spiral references this trope directly in her ending, telling Magneto it's NothingPersonal and that she's just doing her job. Is it her fault she enjoys it?* RocketPunch: Sentinel. It even says those two words.* ShockAndAwe: Storm's primary form of offense, as well as several of Silver Samurai's attacks.* {{Shotoclone}}: Cyclops.* ShoutOut: Check [[ShoutOut/CapcomVsWhatever the page]].* SNKBoss: '''Magneto'''. His AI is complete bullshit and seeks to royally piss you off at the worst time possible. He can fly away well out of your characters' reach and assault them with an extremely fast, damaging projectile. He has another move where he sends in four magnetic balls that are ''unblockable'' and home in on you, and when he catches them he can do whatever he wants. His super hits off-the-ground and unlike in other games reaches the top of the screen vertically, plus does ridiculous damage and it's very hard to avoid it. He's really fast, does a ton of damage with just a few blows, he is really difficult to get inside of and just has everything, including a rapidly regenerating super meter and a shield that makes him completely invincible, as described above.** PuzzleBoss: Then again, if you study him long enough, you will notice that he always follow a strict pattern which you can exploit.* SpaceBase: Avalon, Magneto's space station and stage for the FinalBoss fight with him. It was a pretty revolutionary stage for its day too, cycling through four different backgrounds to represent Magneto pulling the battlefield into different levels of Avalon.* {{Stripperiffic}}: In the ladies' side, we have Psylocke. And in the men's side, if one is feeling crazy, [[HuskyRusskie Colossus]].* SurprisinglyGoodEnglish: All the characters save Silver Samurai are voiced by native English speakers.** In fact, most of them have their [[WesternAnimation/{{X-Men}} Animated Series]] voice actors.** There are, however, a few text flubs, like Silver Samurai belonging to the "[[{{Yakuza}} Yakusa]]."* TurnsRed: Juggernaut's super.* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: Many of Cyclops' moves (in this game and the later ones he appears in) are basically various forms of optic blasts.* WolverineClaws: Wolverine, duh. * ZerothLawRebellion: In Sentinel's ending in ''X-Men: Children of the Atom'', [[spoiler:after defeating Magneto, Sentinel returns to earth. Then, the complete Sentinel line is activated and they start to wipe all the mutants on earth. After the success of the mission... they [[KillEmAll start wiping out humanity]]!]]----
