Hyundai offers Santro at Rs 4990 EMI
Hyundai Motor India Ltd , India's largest auto exporter and the second largest car manufacturer, today announced a special finance scheme at national level for purchases of a range of Santro variants. In a tie-up with ICICI Bank , HDFC Bank and Kotak Mahindra Prime Ltd (KMPL), Hyundai is offering loans on unusually easy terms resulting in an EMI as low as Rs 4990.
The duration of the scheme is from May 4 till May 18, 2007. The scheme is not applicable for Santro's base variant (XK Non AC).
Making the announcement, Hyundai Motor India Vice-President for Marketing & Sales Mr. Arvind Saxena said: "Hyundai offers its customers yet another scheme that emphasises affordability! This scheme makes an exceptional quality product within the reach of all who aspire to own a compact car. At a time when car loans are available at high interest rate, Hyundai has gone out on a limb to offer an interest rate so low that the EMI would be within reach of almost all our customers who want to own Santro. This has been possible with the support of our dealers and financiers"

Looking back it is hard to think of another telecom technology that has seen more debate, more vacillation, and less real action than FTTH. But now I think we can safely assume that we have a 'green light' and deployment is not an option. The debate is now; 'not if or when', but how? For those looking for the one true FTTH solution I say there is no silver bullet – more a menu of options that each country/company will have to choose from to meet local needs.

Florida-based Poison The Well were among the few hard-core/metal bands who made the descent to a major label, signing with Atlantic Records in 2002. While to some that maybe the Holy Grail, PTW found it cumbersome to become the radio-friendly band the label wanted. Never quite a staple in Atlantic Records' arsenal of bands, they sought to be released from their contract and venture elsewhere. They finally made their home with New Jersey-based Ferret Records in late 2006.
They continued with plans to again record out in Sweden with noted producers Pelle Henricsson and Eskil Lovstro (Refused) and the result is Versions, a stunning collective of heavy resonance that sounds like a nervous breakdown out in a field.
The opening track "Letter Thing" begins with the unrelenting hard-core they are known for but easily makes the transition into a slide-guitar laden chorus that brings out a twang-like beauty amidst vocalist Jeffrey Moreira's gut-wrenching screams. "Nagaina" has a Fugazi-like quality vocally while the music keeps a simple and steady course.
The remaining tracks on this record exhibit an obvious attempt to go even further than what was started on You Come Before You. The different instrumentation, such as banjos and horns are balanced out among the prog and doom-like tendencies and frantic vocals that make Versions such a diverse yet organic recording. Henricsson and Lovstro touch of many of the same textures that made The Shape Of Punk to Come such a pivotal and influential record to many.
Maybe we need more bands to go out in the desolate Swedish countryside, limit their exposure to the sun and see what the outcome will be. It worked for Refused and now it's working for Poison The Well.Powered by Sidelines

Carolina on my Mind
On Saturday, March 5, 2011, Cardinal Newman School hosted its 15th Annual Auction, Carolina On My Mind. The school cafeteria, gym, and the connecting hallway were decorated in fine low country style complete with moss draped paths and a beautiful mosaic Palmetto Tree created by Cardinal Newman art teacher, Angel Allen.
Those assembled dined on South Carolina cuisine from Lizard's Thicket and a healthy dose of Low Country shrimp and grits. With an assortment of vacation packages, jewelry, parties, tuition certificates, dining, and entertainment offerings, collectables, and one precious and rare red lab puppy, bidders had plenty of opportunities to support Cardinal Newman School and carry home some really spectacular items.
Auction Co–Chairs Mary Black and Catherine August marveled at the " incredible support and stand out individuals" who helped pull this year's auction together in such tough economic times. They noted that there were "many facets managed by talented people in a collaborative effort."
The biggest problem of the night turned out to be some not–so–sticky duct tape that necessitated some skillful pruning and grafting of the moss draped trees adorning the hallway.
This year's Platinum Sponsor was Blue Cross Blue Shield of Columbia.
Silver sponsors included FN Manufacturing LLC, First Citizens, Hall Bowers LLC, JHS Architecture: Integrated Design Inc, K & M Uniforms/St. Anthony's Corner, Lizard's Thicket, Palmetto Health, St. John Newman Catholic Church, and Williams–Hendricks Lawyers, Lexington, SC.
Advertising Sponsors were Accu Pad Inc, BB&T Wealth Management, Boyd Managment, Peter and Pam Brown, Chao and Associates Inc., Robert and Beverly Dozier, First Command, The Dibble Manning Company, Midlands Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery P.A., Nortpoint Heating and Air Inc., The Palmetto Group, R. Sims Tompkins DMD, MS Orthodontics, Schiano's Old Tyme Pizza Restaurant, St. Joseph's Church and School, St. Martin de Porres Church and School, St. Peter's Church and School, State Farm Insurance–Troy Roberts, Stick Realty, Southern Vistas Inc., Wells Fargo Advisors–Brian Dunphy, Byron and Mandy WIlliams/Morgan Stanley Smith Barney and Wood Creations.
Of course, there were plenty of parents who gave of their time and provided items for auction. A complete list of sponsors and donations can be found on the school website at www.cnhs.org. This year's Fund– A–Project was technology needs for the new school. When the tide rolled in, many happy bidders went home with South Carolina treasures, and one lucky family went home with a precious Canine American to call their own.

How can capitalism be the worst if Americans are so spoiled they should shut up about globalism?
How can one be capitalist and argue for the redistribution of wealth among nations?
Only truth is king.
Of course it will tank one day (probably)...but not before the Fed starts fighting inflation by raising interest rates.
Inflation is gold/silver's best friend (imo).
And massive deficit spending feeds inflation.
And where have you read that ANY major western government/central banks is balancing it's budget or raising interest rates significantly within the next 3 years?
BTW - you did read today that Great Britain just went back into an official recession?
FED is out of ammunition. If they do what they need to do then we are going into a deep depression. If they continue on this path then hello Wiemar republic. The difference between us and the Weimar republic is that the dollar is the worlds reserve currency. Other nations namely emerging markets are not going to continue to import our inflation and are going to fight to change reserve status for the dollar. We either allow that to happen and the dollar collapses or we go to war.
Then again...I may be wrong...maybe the US dollar and the FED are not subject to the same laws of economics and human action. Maybe they are impervious.
Hedge Fund Billionaires John Paulson And David Einhorn Lost $640M In Gold Market Collapse
John Paulson took a big hit on his gold holdings
The gold bloodbath that hit the market over the past two trading sessions has definitely caused a dent in the portfolio of billionaire hedge fund managers. John Paulson and David Einhorn suffered combined losses of more than $640 million since Friday, according to their latest SEC filings, with the bulk concentrated in the former's massive position in the SPDR Gold ETF. Einhorn's Greenlight took a big hit on its holdings of the gold miners ETF.
An implosion that appears to have started in the gold market last Friday spread throughout the commodities complex on Monday, with everything from crude oil to soybeans falling. Physical gold lost more than $200 per ounce, sliding nearly 15% over the past two trading sessions.
Players in the gold market got hurt, and among those are some of the world's most high-profile investors. John Paulson, of the eponymous hedge fund with approximately $20 billion under management, took a big hit. Just with his positions in gold miners Paulson lost more than $171 million over the past two trading sessions, if his latest disclosed holdings remained unchanged. Add an additional $430 million in losses from his 21.8 million stake in the SPDR Gold Trust, and total paper losses climb to $601 million.
Among his individual gold equity positions, Paulson took the biggest hits in AngloGold Ashanti, Freeport McMoran (which has exposure to several other metals including copper and silver), and Novagold. Paulson & Co. is AngloGold's largest shareholder, with more than 7% of the shares, and lost $93 million on that stake. Novagold, where the hedge fund titan owns 11.36% of shares outstanding, delivered losses worth $13.3 million, while Freeport McMoran's losses added to $31.7 million.
Fellow hedgie billionaire David Einhorn also suffered heavy losses, even though they were nowhere near Paulson's. Einhorn's Greenlight Capital, which had nearly $8 billion under management as of our latest count, had major positions in the Market Vectors Gold Miner ETF and Barrick Gold. With the later, which Paulson also owns, Einhorn's hedge fund lost $9.7 million. On his position in the former, of which Greenlight owns about 3%, Einhorn lost $31 million, for a combined hit of $40.7 million.
It remains unclear what caused the violent selloff. As I wrote previously, rumors of a forced sale of gold by the Cypriot government, along with calls by Goldman Sachs and other banks to short the yellow metal, and a weak GDP print from China, seem to have exacerbated the declines. Nervous margin call and stop-loss selling seem to have fueled a self perpetuating cycle, RBC Wealth Management's George Gero told Forbes on Monday.

Behind sunglasses -
I stare at the sound of crashing waves.
Mescaline Eyes - Clarity.
Transparent vision.
Toes dig deep into burning sands.
A dog in the surf - animated -
Slow motion-
Becomes God playing with child.
Radiant Sky streaked in golden strands of Apollo.
Clouds - touched by Midas.
Majestic Glory of Heaven.
Tangible in brilliant Technicolor.

Beauty is a blooming rose
she gracefully stands in a pose
But when she withers and hangs her head
her petal tears fall to her bed
Is her beauty gone forever
Is mother nature harsh and clever
For as the seasons rearrange
giving in to time for the change
Will she be beautiful once again
can her death be not in vain
A tiny bud from her bed of gloom
beneath the soil thats been her tomb
Once again her beauty's chose
a time for change for this blooming rose

When I entered this challenge. The rose is what came to mind. Good Luck with your challenge. If you like I can send some writers your way.

In order, the best first:
São Paulo
Brûlé's article appeared in this past weekend's Financial Times, where's he's been doing a weekly column entitled "Fast Lane" for a few months now.
You may recall him in his previous incarnation, as founder of the highly innovative Wallpaper Magazine in 1996.
As such, he's become an avatar of style, hence his being tapped by the FT as their founding Fast Lane columnist.
Basically, he travels around the world first-class, and tells you what's the best of the best.
An aside: I've often wondered if his middle name might be créme.
Always interesting stuff, and extremely well-written. In fact, he's one of the few people I'd let write for bookofjoe without thinking twice about it, or wanting to see it first.
Sometimes, though, I can't imagine what he's thinking.
I mean, Beirut as the seventh-best city in the world to live in?
Perhaps he was in one of the other nine during the rioting there last week over high gasoline prices. Six people were killed and 30 wounded on Thursday when soldiers fired on protesters.
And perhaps he wears a burnoose, so as not to be subject to the risk of being a Western traveler in a Middle Eastern country these days.
And São Paulo? The most populous city in the world, an insane asylum with nearly 15 million inmates and unbreathable air? Thank you, but no.
Zurich still strikes me as a stodgy old place.
The best city in the world to live in is the one I'm living in.
Charlottesville, Virginia, in the U.S. of A.
Charlottesville was rated the #1 city in the U.S. recently. No surprise.
My #2 would be Vancouver, B.C., Canada.
It's like San Francisco, except surrounded by magnificent, snow-capped mountains, water everywhere, and the most gorgeous people I've ever seen – with the possible exception of Stockholm.Powered by Sidelines

Poor Numbers: explanation of Africa's statistical tragedy
[Pauvreté de chiffres : explication de la tragédie statistique africaine]
Why does sub-Saharan Africa have statistics of low quality? We try to provide an answer by empirically testing a plethora of hypotheses. Results show that with the exception of English, French and Portuguese colonies, other colonies have a weak statistical capacity. Ethnic fragmentation, openness and revolutions lead to the same conclusion. Government effectiveness positively associated statistical capacity. The level of development has a nonlinear relationship with statistical capacity, while the effect of human capital remains complex. Pourquoi l'Afrique sub-saharienne a des statistiques de faible qualité ? Nous testons à partir d'un échantillon africain plusieurs hypothèses explicatives, de manière empirique. Les résultats suggèrent que les colonies autres qu'anglaises, portugaises et françaises ont des faibles capacités statistiques. La fragmentation ethnique, l'ouverture et les révolutions conduisent aussi à la même conclusion. L'efficacité du gouvernement explique positivement la capacité statistique. Le niveau de développement est associé de manière non linéaire à la capacité statistique. L'effet du capital humain reste complexe.

MSc Environmental Sciences
MSc Environmental Sciences including Pathways in Sustainability
In addition to our core MSc Environmental Sciences course, we also offer two Environmental Sciences Pathways that place particular focus on the issue of sustainability:
- Science, Society and Sustainability
- Ecology and Economics for Sustainability
The School of Environmental Sciences boasts leading researchers in the field of environment and sustainability. Their research is interdisciplinary, drawing on expertise in conservation, economics, human geography and political science.
Each Environmental Sciences Pathway incorporates a distinct set of modules that exploits our research strengths and is designed to equip students to deal with the various challenges that sustainability issues present.
MSc Environmental Sciences
Environmental Sciences is the interdisciplinary study of atmospheric, oceanic, freshwater and terrestrial environments coupled with an understanding of the interactions with human society.
A major study area is the science of climate change and how we should adapt to increasing global temperatures and the rise in sea levels. It is the link between the study of natural processes, the effects of pollution, mismanagement and overexploitation of resources and other anthropogenic processes, and the desire to find ways to solve environmental problems that makes environmental sciences a particularly challenging and rewarding subject in the new millennium.
Training in environmental sciences equips you with useful transferable skills. The ability to collect, analyse, interpret and present often diverse datasets and to use analytical tools such as numerical models and geographic information systems (GIS) provides you with a number of technical and presentational skills that are valuable in the job market. Environmental management decisions are often complex involving an assessment of risk associated with different options and learning how to participate in such decision-making is also a valuable skill.
The MSc in Environmental Sciences will offer you a range of subjects to choose from and a wide array of career options, both in postgraduate research and vocational employment. Our flexible course structure suits both students seeking to gain additional training in environmental sciences and non-environmental science graduates from related areas seeking to widen their environmental knowledge and skills.
A modular structure allows these divergent aims to be met within the same programme. You can choose from several areas of expertise in the School including earth sciences, atmospheric sciences, oceanography, ecology, soil sciences and environmental economics and can integrate your knowledge with practical methods of environmental impact assessment and management.
The course lasts 46 weeks, beginning at the start of the academic year in mid-September and finishing in mid-August. Approximately two-thirds of the time is devoted to taught courses and the remainder to an original research project. All courses are taught by faculty and research staff in the internationally renowned School of Environmental Sciences and its associated centres, which gives you the opportunity to learn from scientists actively involved in furthering knowledge in environmental sciences.
Recent Dissertation Titles:
- Potential impacts of climate change and sea-level rise on recharge and saline intrusion in northeast Norfolk
- Application of traditional user's knowledge to the management of tropical marine fisheries
- Economics of forest protected area management in Latin America.
"My year as an Environmental Science student was a very positive experience. Teaching within the school at MSc level was consistent, supportive, fair and flexible to individual needs, as was the feedback and communication from both my advisor and project supervisor."
Jackie Barrow Former student.
Entry Requirements
- Degree Subject: This programme is open to students with a first degree in geography, earth and environmental sciences or related disciplines. It is also suitable for graduates with single-discipline degrees in chemistry, physics, biology, mathematics, computing, engineering, economics and politics.
- Degree Classification: Good first degree (minimum 2.1 or equivalent)
This school offers programs in:
- English

Goodbye Atlanta, Hello Tennessee
... got so caught up in conversation we didn't realise the time and had to leave rather promptly as I didn't want to stress Cheryl out if we were running late. So we said our thank you's and goodbyes and apologise we had to rush out.
En route to Kingsport, Tennessee, and what a long drive it was. It was only 4hours or so, but it really dragged out and we started getting impatient, but I think it was because we were running off lack of sleep ...
Atlanta - Day 4
... with Aaron. We got back to the car, took our shoes off as it had rained the night before so our shoes were a little muddy and off we went back home.
We got home and decide to head straight to the showers as I felt sweaty and gross, as the others decide to dip into the pool instead. Our plan was to head back over to Mike and Ida's as we hadn't spent much time with them, however we just ran out of time as we hadn't even ...
Atlanta Brave
Touched down in Atlanta after a delayed flight, but the "Bar-B-Q Combo Platter" from the the Williamson Bros. made it all worthwhile. Picked up a few travel necessities and a bandana from the nearby Wal-Mart before retiring for the night. Can't wait to see what tomorrow feeds us! Off to Talladega and ...
Atlanta - Six Flags Theme park
... we went again.
We got off and decided to head to the Goliath which was Kelleys favourite from previous past times. So we get there and its only about a 10-15minute wait and we are straight on the ride. We understand why its her favourite, it was so incredibly fun. It's a ride that goes through the entire park, but the whole time you are up and down with only one strap to keep you in (because you don't go upside down). But the drop at the start is definitely worth any ...
Atlanta - Day 2
... and walk around it and Aaron finds a baseball
laying in the carpark, so he is already happy and distracted. We get home,
decide to shower and clean up, and skype Michal aswell. So we spend a good hour
chatting to Michal, and we decide to call it a night as we're all yawning and
growing tired.
We set the alarm for 8am as we have a big day at Six Flags theme park tomorrow and want to
get there by 10:30am for opening.

It is well established in the United States that a patent holder generally has broad discretion to determine how it uses or licenses it patents. The U.S. Supreme Court's bottom-line principle expressed in Trinko—that companies are free to refuse to deal with anyone—applies to intellectual property as is does to other property rights.1 As the U.S. DOJ and FTC have expressed, "the unilateral right to refuse to grant a patent license is a core part of the patent grant."2 And as patent holders generally are free to refuse to license their patents, they also generally are free to impose any restrictions they wish on licenses that they do grant.3
This general rule holds as well in the rapidly growing and changing cloud computing industry. Nevertheless, the antitrust laws do impose some limits on a patent holder's rights, and as a result patent licensing and litigation have become significant competitive issues in the technology industry in recent years. Companies licensing patents in the cloud should be aware that certain licensing practices in the cloud might have anti-competitive effects that could trigger antitrust concerns. This article reviews, at a high level, whether the nature of cloud computing raises special antitrust risks, and if so, when a company should consider further review of its licensing practices.
A. An Overview of Cloud Computing
Cloud computing is the provision of data or applications on demand, over the web, to remote users. The cloud can best be viewed as a "stack" consisting of five layers—hardware, virtualization, infrastructure as a service ("IaaS"), platform as a service ("PaaS"), and software as a service ("SaaS"):
Each layer depends on interface and protocol interoperability to those above and below it for the cloud to work properly. For example, when a user opens a photograph in her Facebook account on her smartphone, she is using a SaaS application (the Facebook app) to retrieve data (the digital photograph file) stored in remote hardware (the Facebook servers) that are collectively managed by virtualization software and an operating system. If the remote hardware fails, then neither the SaaS application nor the data can be retrieved, and the user experience collapses.
Within each broad layer is an abundance of potential product and technology markets that are similarly codependent: servers and mainframes with connected storage devices and networking gear; server, mainframe, and cloud operating systems; video compression and streaming software; search engines; webmail; online advertising; and others. Surrounding these is an overlapping series of products (and potential markets) such as smartphones, tablet computers, PCs, set-top boxes, and game consoles. Many, and likely most, of the underlying technologies in these markets are subject to intellectual property protections.
To recoup investments and obtain cost predictability, players at all levels in the cloud rely on patent licensing, frequently in the form of cross-licenses and portfolio licenses that provide a form of "patent peace" to the parties. The licensing practices are particularly important to the heavyweight patent holders that compete across multiple markets in the cloud. One player that competes in several cloud-related markets, IBM, perennially has been one of the top two patent holders in the world. Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, Hewlett-Packard, and Oracle/Sun also possess significant patent portfolios and compete with one another within the cloud industry. And recently, Google appears to be scrambling to catch up.
B. Antitrust Risks in the Cloud
Cloud computing represents a disruptive "paradigm shift" potentially comparable to the emergence of the Internet and the personal computer. As such, the cloud presents opportunities for companies to leverage rapid technology change to challenge previously dominant competitors in once-unassailable markets. And like the Internet and the PC before it, the cloud promises tremendous potential efficiency and innovation benefits for consumers and the economy. This virtually guarantees that competition authorities around the world will closely watch cloud-related markets for potential antitrust violations. For patent licensors, some of the most important antitrust risks include: (1) market power and tipping points; (2) tying and package licenses; and (3) standards setting and patent pools.
(1) Market Power and Tipping Points
As described above, the cloud consists of multiple intersecting and overlapping markets. As a result, cloud computing may present scenarios where a company that has market power in one cloud market can use that market power to foreclose competition in adjacent markets. This is especially the case because of the need for interoperability between technologies in the cloud. A company that holds patents covering protocols and other links between a monopoly product and products in another market can expect greater scrutiny of its licensing practices. This is especially the case in jurisdictions, such as the European Union, where monopoly leveraging is a more viable claim than in the United States).
Like other technology industries, the cloud also presents risks of tipping points, where one company's product becomes an accepted standard. This potential for market tipping can be exacerbated by the presence of network effects or high barriers to entry, just as in more mature technology markets. Providers that operate across multiple cloud markets—and especially providers that are dominant in one or more markets—therefore should carefully review licensing practices to avoid being accused of leveraging market power in one area of the cloud into another area of the cloud.4
(2) Tying and Package Licenses
Another, related risk arising from the multiple layers of cloud markets is that of anti-competitive tying or bundling. Generally, a distinction exists between patent-to-product tying and patent-to-patent tying. In patent-to-product tying, the patent owner "uses the market power conferred by the patent to compel customers to purchase a product in a separate market that the customer might otherwise purchase from a competitor." U.S. Philips Corp. v. Int'l Trade Comm'n, 424 F.3d 1179, 1189-90 (Fed. Cir. 2005). Courts have found such licenses to constitute antitrust violations or patent misuse, and companies should be wary of any such conditions in patent licenses. See, e.g., United States v. U.S. Gypsum Co., 333 U.S. 364, 400 (1948); Int'l Salt v. United States, 332 U.S. 392, 395 (1947); Virginia Panel Corp. v. MAC Panel Co., 133 F.3d 860, 868-69 (Fed. Cir. 1997).
By contrast, in most cases, companies may offer a license to a portfolio (or package) of patents without undue concern about potential antitrust risk. See Philips, 424 F.3d at 1190-91. However, package licenses can raise antitrust issues if a company that owns rights to essential patents forces licensees take a license to non-essential patents, and that coercion forecloses competition from commercially viable alternative technology. Id. at 1194. Therefore, patent holders who offer package licenses including both essential and non-essential patents should carefully review portfolio licenses, bundles, and package licenses to ensure that they do not present such risks.
(3) Standards Setting and Patent Pools
As with other technology industries, the need for interoperability in the cloud means that companies often must conform to industry standards to be serious providers of products or services providers. Where this is the case, special issues may arise. Most standards-setting organizations require participants whose patents read on an adopted industry standard to promise to license their patents on terms that are "reasonable and nondiscriminatory" ("RAND"). Any such promise places an immediate limitation on what is otherwise freedom to license on terms the patentee desires. Antitrust risks, as well as other contractual or tort law risks, may flow from undertaking a RAND obligation if those obligations are not fulfilled.5 In addition, similar issues may arise in the context of patent pools, where bundles of patents from different patent owners are collected in one pool for licensing subject to the kinds of commitments the DOJ has required in approving patent pools.6
* * *
In sum, companies can expect that the licensing practices that are increasingly commonplace in cloud computing, as elsewhere, likely are pro-competitive and in line with well-settled legal principles. However, the importance of the cloud and its nature mean that antitrust authorities will closely watch any licensing conduct in the cloud. In addition, any licensing that implicates more than one potential product market—especially where a patent owner has a monopoly in one market—could prompt greater scrutiny. In such cases, patent owners in the cloud should carefully review licensing strategies for potential antitrust risks.
1 See Verizon Commc'ns Inc. v. Law Offices of Curtis V. Trinko, LLP, 540 U.S. 398, 407 (2004) ("[A]s a general matter, the Sherman Act 'does not restrict the long recognized right of [a] trader or manufacturer engaged in an entirely private business, freely to exercise his own independent discretion as to parties with whom he will deal.'") (citing United States v. Colgate & Co., 250 U.S. 300, 307 (1919)).
2 U.S. DEP'T OF JUSTICE AND FED. TRADE COMM'N, ANTITRUST ENFORCEMENT AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS: PROMOTING INNOVATION AND COMPETITION (2007) ("JOINT ANTITRUST/IP GUIDELINES"), at 6.
3 See General Talking Pictures Corp. v. Western Electric Co., 305 U.S. 124, 127 (1938) ("The practice of granting licenses for restricted use is an old one. So far as it appears, its legality has never been questioned."); Mallinckrodt, Inc. v. Medipart, Inc., 976 F.2d 700, 706 (Fed. Cir. 1992) ("Restrictions on use are judged in terms of their relation to the patentee's right to exclude from all of part of the patent grant.").
4 Because companies in the cloud frequently acquire businesses in adjacent markets or decide later to enter previously uncontested adjacent markets, an "Aspen Skiing" scenario may arise in this context. For example, a company that licenses software to hardware providers, and then enters the hardware business itself, should be wary of changes to existing licensing practices that could be viewed as anti-competitive attempts to foreclose hardware competition. See JOINT ANTITRUST/IP GUIDELINES at 28 (liability could attach "when a patent owner refuses to continue to license under circumstances paralleling those in Aspen"); Aspen Skiing Co. v. Aspen Highlands Skiing Corp., 472 U.S. 585 (1985).
5 See, e.g., Broadcom Corp. v. Qualcomm Inc., 501 F. 3d 297 (3d Cir. 2007).
6 See, e.g., JOINT ANTITRUST/IP GUIDELINES at 65-85; Letter from Thomas Barnett to William Dolan and Geoffrey Oliver, Oct. 21, 2008 (RFID patent pool), available at http://www.justice.gov/atr/public/busreview/238429.htm.

A sensor patch to analyse sweat17 Apr
They say bracelets and watches are taking on a new meaning – as "wearables", whether they count the steps we take during the day or monitor the quality of our sleep. Researchers at the University of Cincinnati (USA) have developed a bandaid-like wearable gadget with a sensor that measures electrolytes, metabolites and proteins in perspiration and which could prove to be of diagnostic value.
Using perspiration to diagnose certain diseases is nothing new; cystic fibrosis can be ruled out by this method, for intance, and perspiration has also been used to determine drug intake. But the Novel Devices Laboratory at the University of Cincinnati (USA) has gone a step further: Jason Heickenfel and his team have developed a wearable gadget consisting of material that absorbs perspiration, a circuit that calculates perspiration levels of certain ions, e.g., sodium, and a unit for radio frequency transmission of this data to a smartphone.

Microbiota – the skin's "flora"31 Aug
Our skin is a balanced ecosystem. Since it was colonized by billions of bacteria, viruses, fungi and mites at the dawn of the evolution of hominids, many species of microorganisms have lived in symbiosis with our skin mantle cells. Science's efforts to identify our colonizers have revealed how essential these microorganisms are for the health of our skin. The most natural way to healthy skin is to help maintain the balance between all these microorganisms.
Although it may be difficult to credit, only 10% of the cells of the body's skin, intestines and mucous membranes are human. Most of them are of microscopic organisms that belong to the microbiota, the set of all foreign microbes that live in our body, especially in the digestive organs and the skin. For example, each square centimetre of human skin contains approximately one million microorganisms from a hundred different species. Together these form the skin's microbiota (traditionally called the skin's "flora"). This ecosystem is comparable in complexity to any other system in the Earth's mantle. Today we know that our skin has hosted these microorganisms over thousands of years of evolution and that it is the symbiosis between our own cells and these tiny guests which helps the skin to perform its primary function of acting as a protective physical barrier.

When smelling bad is not a matter of hygiene28 Aug
An offensive body odour may not be the result of a lack of hygiene. Bromhidrosis is a disorder affecting both men and women and usually associated with secretions by the apocrine sweat glands located in the armpits, pubis, perineum and navel, behind the ears and in the folds under the breast. It is a chronic but treatable disorder.
Persons affected by bromhidrosis do not perspire more; rather, their apocrine glands produce sweat containing ceramides that are different to those of the rest of the population. When broken down by the skin's bacteria, a strong odour is the result. This odour, which is often described as pungent, musty or sour, cannot be dissumulated. The condition is believed to be genetic in origin, but may also be caused by a metabolic disorder such as diabetes, by thyroid or adrenal gland alterations or by certain drugs. In addition, certain foods, such as onions, garlic and spices, and also tobacco use and alcohol consumption, can aggravate the condition. Read More
Perspiration is essential1 Apr
Our skin regulates body temperature by sweating. Although we are not aware of it, this sophisticated natural mechanism keeps us alive, because the body requires a constant internal temperature. But some people do not sweat enough, and, in some cases, this disorder has serious repercussions.
This blog has already included a post on the bothersome problem of excessive sweating (hyperhidrosis) and its treatments. But sweating too little (hypohidrosis) or not sweating at all (anhidrosis) are much more dangerous to health, because the body fails to maintain its proper temperature. The pores of the skin, usually easily seen under a magnifying glass, are virtually invisible in people with these problems. The causes, whether genetic, endocrinological (diabetes, hypothyroidism) or neurological, affect the nerves involved in sweating. Symptoms include dizziness, headache, nausea, trembling, fever and tachycardia. These syndromes have no cure or medication, but fortunately affect few people. The only solution is to hydrate properly and avoid heat stroke by staying in the shade.

- Budget $30 - $250 USD
- Total Bids 15
Project Description
I have a several projects and would like to use this small one as a test of someone's ability to get quality Facebook likes and see if those likes eventually translate into sales. If it works I have bigger projects as well. This project is for a product that we sell and have recently started a Facebook page for. We spent a little money on Facebook ads and reached around 750 likes. It just isn't worth the money for Facebook ads so far.
We would like for someone to get us real likes only in the USA and from people who would be likely to purchase the product. The product is kitchen related and our stats show that our main audience is female between 25-55, married, has children. We want to hire someone who understands that we are looking for people who will become customers. We don't need random people liking our page just so it looks like we have a large amount of followers. The quality of the likes and integrity of our brand are most important.
These must be real likes.
No Bots or fake likes.
Must be within Facebook TOC.
Can't be people who like and then drop off right away.Get free quotes for a project like this

Taking on difficult projects may not help your career because there is a risk you might fail -- or you may succeed and become stuck doing them all the time, Scot Herrick writes. It's better if you suggest improvements in your own work processes and "be a star performer in the job you do," he writes.

This proposal is focused on developing our understanding of class 1 myosins: ubiquitously expressed monomeric, membrane binding, actin-based motors that participate in diverse cellular functions, including organelle trafficking, transcription, host defense, cell motility, and mechano-sensation. Our studies of myosin-1 are centered on the 'brush border', a tightly packed array of microvilli that extends from the apical surface of many transporting epithelial cells types. This organelle is home to a number of myosin superfamily members, with the most abundant being myosin-1a (Myo1a), one of eight vertebrate class 1 myosins. Our laboratory has leveraged a unique combination of cell biological and biophysical approaches to discover that: (i) Myo1a contributes to membrane-cytoskeleton adhesion, which is critical for maintaining normal brush border structure, and (ii) Myo1a powers the release of membrane vesicles enriched in host defense machinery from microvillar tips into the intestinal lumen. The physiological significance of Myo1a function is also underscored by recent studies showing that mutations in this motor are linked to colorectal tumor formation in humans. While we have made substantial progress toward elucidating the biological roles of Myo1a, the molecular properties, interactions, and events that govern the function of this and other myosins-1 remain poorly characterized. The goal of this proposal is to develop our understanding of the fundamental biochemical and biophysical properties that enable Myo1a to contribute to brush border function. To this end, Aim 1 will examine the unitary properties of single Myo1a molecules interacting with the plasma membrane of live cells and supported bilayers in vitro, Aim 2 will examine the force generating potential of Myo1a bound to supported bilayers, and Aim 3 will investigate the role of force sensing in the regulation of Myo1a dynamics and function. Because defects in brush border formation and maintenance are at the core of numerous diseases that pose significant threats to human health, developing insight on the molecular mechanisms that govern Myo1a behavior will provide information that may ultimately be used in the development of therapeutics aimed at repairing malformed or damaged brush borders.
Brush border microvilli function as the major site of nutrient absorption and a barrier to bacteria that reside in the intestinal lumen. Functional microvilli are essential for maintaining normal human health;malformation of the brush border or microvillar destruction caused by disease or infection are associated with malabsorption, dehydration, and in severe cases, death. Understanding the mechanism of molecules such as Myo1a, which are important for microvillar maintenance and function, will be critical for understanding human illnesses that derive from brush border malformation, enteric infections, and intestinal cancers.

24hr Central Line strike begins tonight
So - the details you need: Drivers will walk out beginning at 9pm tonight - make sure you're where you need to be... Read more...
10th Nov 2012 9:24am | By Alasdair Morton
Where did your show's title, The Man With The Flaming Battenberg Tattoo, come from?
The show tells the story about how this tattoo [of a flaming cake] changed my life.
The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo was around at the time, and was quite big. It's not a parody, but an obvious nod.
Is it about trying to mellow out?
I am trying to be a bit calmer. All my life I have been an argumentative, contrary little shit and I am trying not to be like that so much.
It is difficult as it is who I am and this is about how that tattoo has helped.
How has the tattoo changed you?
A couple of years ago I would not have admitted to being like that, but now I am coming to terms with who I am.
Being that person never had any redeeming side to it – it has always been a bane of my life and I denied it – but now, as I am making money from it through stand-up and I've made a career out of it, I am starting to see a positive side.
I still hate being like this, though.
So what annoys you?
Any given thing at any given time – it could be the smallest, most petty thing. Often it's marketing that gets me. In this new show I read out letters I've written to companies in the past that have pissed me off.
And politics winds me up, despite the fact I don't know much about it.
That's my problem – rather than being someone who knows about everything and responds rationally, I just respond passionately and from the heart, but don't know much about what I'm on about.
Who's felt the Rhod wrath?
First Great Western [train company from London to Wales], Innocent smoothies, Braun, The Body Shop … it can be anything.
Announcing over the Tannoy in the quiet carriage on the train for everyone to be quiet – it's just pointless.
Did anger management classes help?
I talk about it in the show, some of which is taken from the anger management diaries I wrote during those sessions.
You're meant to write about all the little incidents that have annoyed you, but I've used it as a device for this show like documentary evidence.
You didn't start stand-up until your 30s – what prompted you then?
I had no interest in comedy before, never been to a comedy show, but this girlfriend I had been with for eight years just nagged.
I've known two things all my life: one, I am an argumentative person and two, I've always tried to make people laugh.
I've never had much interest in anything else. She spotted that and kept on at me saying: "You should do something with this."

It took two helicopter trips to do it, but the results were unmistakable. Photographer Oscar Ruiz's aerial images revealed two Mexico Cities: One a bright postcard full of satellite dishes and manicured lawns, and the other a set of slums, littered with plastic and covered by corrugated scrap. Sometimes, only a high, thin wall separated the two.
Nearly 46% of Mexico's population lives in poverty, and the country has one of the highest income inequality rates in the world. In Mexico City, the poorest of the megacity's 20 million people don't have plumbing, and their homes are subject to flooding with raw sewage. But you might not be able to tell, judging by the luxury condos just next door. Both conditions were unavoidable when Ruiz shot them from above in Mexico City's Santa Fé district for ad agency Publicis.
The campaign, now plastered across billboards and in print, was launched by Mexican bank Banamex (now owned by Citigroup), in an attempt to draw attention to its community development program in low-income areas. But instead of better branding for Banamex, the ads serve more as a public service announcement. Aside from the stark, disturbing views, the "Erase the Difference" billboards only feature a link at the bottom, the homepage for former Banamex CEO Roberto Hernández Ramirez's charitable projects.
"The real drama is that that's the actual image," says Héctor Fernández, head creative and co-director at Publicis. "That's the truth. When you see that, that's when you realize people would think we stuck two photos together to create the drama."
Mexico City has made some strides in transportation and green building as its population continues to explode, but it also features some serious sprawl. Alongside, income inequality persists. We should know by now that it doesn't tend to go away on its own.
