Pregnancy Prevention Program in Acne Drug Users Ineffective »
"Women who receive the potent teratogen isotretinoin for acne control have inadequate adherence to pregnancy prevention, according to a study published online April 25 in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.

Read the Pregnancy Prevention Program in Acne Drug Users Ineffective article »
An increased risk of the following serious adverse reactions has been associated with the use of oral contraceptives (See WARNINGS Section).
- Thrombophlebitis and venous thrombosis with or without embolism
- Arterial thromboembolism
- Pulmonary embolism
- Myocardial infarction
- Cerebral hemorrhage
- Cerebral thrombosis
- Hypertension
- Gallbladder disease
- Hepatic adenomas or benign liver tumors
There is evidence of an association between the following conditions and the use of oral contraceptives:
- Mesenteric thrombosis
- Retinal thrombosis
The following adverse reactions have been reported in patients receiving oral contraceptives and are believed to be drug-related:
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Gastrointestinal symptoms (such as abdominal cramps and bloating)
- Breakthrough bleeding
- Spotting
- Change in menstrual flow
- Amenorrhea
- Temporary infertility after discontinuation of treatment
- Edema
- Melasma which may persist
- Breast changes: tenderness, enlargement, secretion
- Change in weight (increase or decrease)
- Change in cervical erosion and secretion
- Diminution in lactation when given immediately postpartum
- Cholestatic jaundice
- Migraine
- Rash (allergic)
- Mental depression
- Reduced tolerance to carbohydrates

Read the Ortho-Novum (norethindrone and ethinyl estradiol) Side Effects Center for a complete guide to possible side effects
Changes in contraceptive effectiveness associated with co-administration of other products:
Contraceptive effectiveness may be reduced when hormonal contraceptives are co-administered with antibiotics, anticonvulsants, and other drugs that increase the metabolism of contraceptive steroids. This could result in unintended pregnancy or breakthrough bleeding. Examples include rifampin, barbiturates, phenylbutazone, phenytoin, carbamazepine, felbamate, oxcarbazepine, topiramate, and griseofulvin. Several cases of contraceptive failure and breakthrough bleeding have been reported in the literature with concomitant administration of antibiotics such as ampicillin and tetracyclines. However, clinical pharmacology studies investigating drug interaction between combined oral contraceptives and these antibiotics have reported inconsistent results.
Several of the anti-HIV protease inhibitors have been studied with co-administration of oral combination hormonal contraceptives; significant changes (increase and decrease) in the plasma levels of the estrogen and progestin have been noted in some cases. The safety and efficacy of oral contraceptive products may be affected with co-administration of anti-HIV protease inhibitors. Healthcare professionals should refer to the label of the individual anti-HIV protease inhibitors for further drug-drug interaction information.
Herbal products containing St. John's Wort (hypericum perforatum) may induce hepatic enzymes (cytochrome P450) and p-glycoprotein transporter and may reduce the effectiveness of contraceptive steroids. This may also result in breakthrough bleeding.
Increase in plasma levels associated with co-administered drugs:
Co-administration of atorvastatin and certain oral contraceptives containing ethinyl estradiol increase AUC values for ethinyl estradiol by approximately 20%. Ascorbic acid and acetaminophen may increase plasma ethinyl estradiol levels, possibly by inhibition of conjugation. CYP 3A4 inhibitors such as itraconazole or ketoconazole may increase plasma hormone levels.
Changes in plasma levels of co-administered drugs:
Combination hormonal contraceptives containing some synthetic estrogens (e.g., ethinyl estradiol) may inhibit the metabolism of other compounds. Increased plasma concentrations of cyclosporin, prednisolone, and theophylline have been reported with concomitant administration of oral contraceptives. Decreased plasma concentrations of acetaminophen and increased clearance of temazepam, salicylic acid, morphine and clofibric acid, due to induction of conjugation, have been noted when these drugs were administered with oral contraceptives.
Interactions With Laboratory Tests
Certain endocrine and liver function tests and blood components may be affected by oral contraceptives:
a. Increased prothrombin and factors VII, VIII, IX, and X; decreased antithrombin 3; increased norepinephrine-induced platelet aggregability.
b. Increased thyroid binding globulin (TBG) leading to increased circulating total thyroid hormone, as measured by protein-bound iodine (PBI), T4 by column or by radioimmunoassay. Free T3 resin uptake is decreased, reflecting the elevated TBG, free T4 concentration is unaltered.
c. Other binding proteins may be elevated in serum.
d. Sex-binding globulins are increased and result in elevated levels of total circulating sex steroids and corticoids; however, free or biologically active levels remain unchanged.
e. Triglycerides may be increased and levels of various other lipids and lipoproteins may be affected.
f. Glucose tolerance may be decreased.
g. Serum folate levels may be depressed by oral contraceptive therapy. This may be of clinical significance if a woman becomes pregnant shortly after discontinuing oral contraceptives.

Twickenham Studios (formerly known as Twickenham Film Studios) is a film studio located in St Margarets, London, England used by many motion picture and television companies. It was established in 1913 by Dr. Ralph Jupp on the site of a former ice-rink. At the time of its original construction, it was the largest film studio in the United Kingdom.[1]
In February 2012, it was announced that due to the studio going into administration, it would close before June, just a year before it centenary.[2][3] The studio was subsequently saved from closure, with a new owner acquiring the studio in August 2012.[4]

Julius Hagen
During the 1930s the studio was run by Julius Hagen. Hagen built up his business making Quota quickies for major American studios who were required by law to produce a certain number of British films each year in order to be allowed to release their expensive Hollywood pictures into the lucrative British market. Hagen became very efficient at producing large numbers of these quickies of varying quality. He often filmed all day, and then brought in different crews and actors to work through the night.[5]
In the wake of the success of Alexander Korda's The Private Life of Henry VIII Hagen became interested in producing films which could be released in America. Twickenham took on more quality work such as the 1933 Gracie Fields vehicle This Week of Grace. This ultimately led Hagen to stop making quickies entirely and focus entirely on quality productions. He began to make more expensive films such as Seymour Hicks's Scrooge (1935) and Spy of Napoleon which he hoped to gain both a national and international market for. Hagen spent £100,000 rebuilding Twickenham Studios and acquired studios in other parts of London. He also broke with his established distributors and attempted to distribute his own films. This proved a mistake, the major American studios blocked his entry into their market, while his films failed to gain access in the British market. In 1937 Hagen's company went bankrupt as part of a wider slump in British filmmaking that year bringing an end to his reign at Twickenham.
Numerous films have been made at Twickenham since the end of Hagen's tenure including Carol Reed's The Stars Look Down in 1939.
In 1946 Alfred Shipman formed Alliance Film Studios Limited, controlling Riverside, Southall and Twickenham Film Studios. After his death in 1956 his two sons: Gerald (father of Piers Flint-Shipman) and Kenneth Shipman took control of the studios with Kenneth later going on to form Alliance Film Distributors.[6]
Later films
In the 1960s classic films such as Alfie starring Michael Caine, The Italian Job in 1969 with Noël Coward, Roman Polanski's first English language film in 1965 Repulsion; Be My Guest in 1965, featured Jerry Lee Lewis an early appearance by the young actor Steve Marriott and The Nashville Teens. The two Beatles feature films were made at Twickenham A Hard Day's Night and Help!, and also their promotional film for Hey Jude[7] In 1969, The Beatles used the studios while rehearsing music for their album Let It Be. A film was made of some of the sessions and both the film and the album were released in 1970.
In the 1980s, the studio was used for The Mirror Crack'd, An American Werewolf in London, A Fish Called Wanda, Blade Runner and Brother Sun, Sister Moon. Later films include The Others, Layer Cake, The Crucible, Interview with the Vampire and Sweet Revenge.
Film productions

Sound stages
Twickenham Studios has three stages that are sound-proofed and operate on a 'four wall' basis. Dressing rooms, star apartments, make-up, hairdressing and wardrobe departments and camera rooms are situated adjacent to each stage, with nearby prop rooms, art departments and office suites. The largest, Stage 1, has a concrete water tank, housed underneath the floor boards. A camera pit at one end allows underwater viewing through a glass screen. This stage is famous for innumerable films, but notably, the two Beatles films, Help and A Hard Day's Night, also A Fish Called Wanda and An American Werewolf in London. More recently, Kenneth Branagh's Sleuth was shot on this stage. Stage Three has seen the filming of many famous films, including Roman Polanski's Repulsion, Karel Reisz's The French Lieutenant's Woman, Lewis Gilbert's Shirley Valentine and more recently, Layer Cake directed by Matthew Vaughn and Love in the Time of Cholera directed by Mike Newell. Nicole Kidman and Colin Firth shot the thriller Before I Go To Sleep, written and directed by Rowan Joffé, at the studios early in 2013.[10][11]
Post production
The studios' post production facilities include a state-of-the-art Sound Centre, at the heart of which is the recently re-fitted The Richard Attenborough Theatre, named after Lord Attenborough who used to have his permanent film offices at the studios.
It is one of the elite studios in the UK which has been Dolby Premier Certified.[12] Other facilities include a second dubbing theatre, ADR / Foley Theatre, numerous cutting rooms, office facilities and sound transfer facilities.
The most recent production to use the facilities was Brad Pitt's World War Z.[13]

These four intimate walking tours can take as little as two hours or as long as a morning or afternoon, depending on whether you stop at shops, museums, or cafes which are pointed out along the way. You can also listen to the tapes before you leave to help you plan your day in London and they will be an enjoyable reminder for you when you return.
© and (P)1997 Sound Travel
"As walking guides, these [audiobooks] offer a nicely organized, historically rich look at places outside the established tourist haunts....Recommended for those wanting to explore London's less touristy environs." (Library Journal)
"Directions are clear, and guide Jean Marsh's delivery is friendly, informed and charmingly British. These programs are well worth your listening attention, if not your walking shoes." (AudioFile)
"Nice Walking Tour of London"
I did the fist walking tour which starts at Embankment Tube Station near Trafalgar Square on the Thames and goes around the Strand and up through Covent Garden and I found it fascinating. Tons of little things I would never had noticed along with lots of history and hidden alleys to duck into and such. A lovely hour and half stoll. I walk fast so it could take you a little longer. And bring your camera to take pictures. Lots to see and well worth your time.
As someone who lives and works in London I found it very dated in attitude and fact. Some areas around the City (where many buildings and pubs go back centuries) have visually changed a lot over the last 8 years with many modern visual landmark buildings.
For anyone coming to London with the time to spare in advance I would recommend the Peter Ackroyd's books on the history of London which although covering many centuries of history do give a good insight into the names and characters of many areas of central London today.
Fabulous! We have been to London 12 times and this guide was one of the best experiences we have had. Only criticism is that it needs a map and perhaps a time guide for the tours. Interesting and well worth getting. After 25 years only a few spots were changed.

Sandra Magsamen is the artist behind the From The Studio line that is sold exclusively at Walmart.
Her ceramic plaques are artsy and they serve a very important purpose, they tell someone how you truly feel. Sometimes it is hard for me to find the words to express how I feel. When I saw these different plaques, I knew that Sandra had somehow managed to put my feelings into words. Not only are the sayings heartfelt, they are also beautifully designed and include beaded hanger, so they can go in any area of your house. They cost $15 each. If you are interested in a custom plaque, those cost $20 each.
The key chains have endearing messages on them that are also the perfect way to show someone you care. I like to have things that have a positive affirmation and remind me about the good things in life. I think that's why I love to have my home (and key rings) that are pleasing to the eye and also serve a purpose.
Coffee is a girls best friend. Well, coffee is my best friend. I need the caffeine pick me up in order to start my day. Sandra's mugs are great for coffee because they aren't too big or too small. They are the perfect size for my morning brew. I also love the style and meaning that is etched on it.
The teddy bear had to be the softest stuffed animal I have ever laid my hands on. It would make a great gift for a loved one.

Disclosure: I received products from this company so that I could write an honest review.

I love that first one! Hella funny. A buddy of mine and I have actually invented a product that might be a great idea for this situation as well. Its called the Armadillow. It's a pillow, made for cuddling, that has arm tunnels so that you can put your arms underneath without it getting numb and uncomfortable. It's also got a multi level top so the person in back can see over the other person while you are cuddling, watching TV. Check it out at Armadillow.com - Hope you like it!

DENVER (AP) Colorado's unemployment rate has declined to 6.8 percent, the lowest rate in nearly five years.
The Colorado Department of Labor and Employment said Friday the jobless rate for October fell by a tenth of a percentage point from the September rate.
October's rate was the lowest since January 2009, when it was 6.7 percent.
The department says the number of people reporting themselves as employed actually dropped by 7,400 in October, but that was more than offset by a decline of 13,400 in the labor force.
The largest job decreases were in the trade, transportation and utilities, construction and information sectors.
Job increases were reported in professional and business services, education and health services, leisure and hospitality and manufacturing.
The national unemployment rate in October was 7.3 percent.

F1 Fanatic - F1
This topic contains 38 replies, has 30 voices, and was last updated by Girts 5 years, 1 month ago.
Im not anti social but I like to watch a grand prix by myself no interuptions, other people dont quite get that. So you need a good excuse.
I mean you cant have a bad cold etc every other weekend.
Lets have some really good ones please. They could be crutial to your GP season.
@johnf1fanatic Far better just to be straight with them and explain why you'd rather not be interrupted. And turn your phone off.
That's served me well enough for years. No need to make up excuses.
I think it's always better to be honest, that way you can't be caught out, luckily I have a good few friends who enjoy F1 so we often get a group of us together on a Sunday to watch the race (great in the summer with a BBQ on the go, reminds me of those perfect Sundays as a child watching the F1.)
Family usually know what I'm doing Saturdays and Sundays, so most of time stay in. If I have to go out for dinner I have to sit within view of TV. Although 2007 was last time I saw the end of season montage in our living room
Talk forever to your friends about F1. Tell them when the next race is, so they get sick of it and don't dare disturb you ;)
If you are interrupted during a race/qualifying, invent an excuse such as: "Ssh! Liuzzi is 10th for HRT! This is historically crucial!" and they might leave you alone.
EDF Energy have no concept of F1 title finales, they decided they were going switch off our electricity on the weekend of Abu Dhabi 2010. I had to go to grand parents house to watch it.
I actually have never really watched F1 alone at home. I'm always watching out in the pub with mates; or just with the normal crowd. There's something about the surroundings – being immersed with all F1 fans, that really gets to me.
And it all came together in Abu Dhabi 2010 – a mate and I were rooting for Vettel; and when we reached the pub half the place was wearing McLaren shirts, half were in red, and two Aussie blokes were at the bar. The whole room went silent as Vettel crossed the line, and they all waited on where Alonso would finish. Then they all never spoke up again; while my mate and I burst screaming.
I told my friends that watching an F1 Race is like having sex. So I just don't like them to be in the same room while i'm doing/watching it :P
@goofy well Martin Brundle seems to be of the same opinion as you :P
He said earlier on in the year, " Would you rather have sex, or watch porno? It's got to be live" when he was talking of doing live races on Sky
Nice thread, @johnf1fanatic
My girlfriend is always kept up to speed (excuse the pun) on the F1 calendar and she knows she won't get much out of me on a Grand Prix Sunday, one of the reasons I love her so! If my mum rings me on a weekend she always starts a conversation with "I'm not interrupting F1 am I?!", bless her!
I think everyone else gets the idea off my constant Twitter and Facebook updates.
I find that you can do the look if someone is talking, and since getting sky earlier this year i love pausing and looking in a way of, "i am watching this, i do not interupt you when you are watching One Born Every Minute so please do not interupt me". Plus i have got my wife and her mother into F1 over the past year so there are no phone calls on a sunday afternoon to interupt the races!
I always found that yelling "SHUT UP I'M WATCHING THE RACE!" always worked.
Or ignoring everything else but the TV screen.
Interrupt them when they're watching East-Enders.
If anyone walks in front of the tv, just start screaming wildly; "AAAAAARRRRRRGHHHHH".
Works everytime
Bonus Points: Get that friend to grab a cold one and join you on the couch.. F1 is better with friends
Adding to this thread is there any excuses to tell your clingy girlfriend why you can't spend time with her during a Grand Prix.

Looks like former "Lost" star Henry Ian Cusick will be "Scandal"-less when the ABC series returns for Season 2.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Cusick and showrunner Shonda Rhimes jointly decided he should leave the political drama in what's described as an amicable split.
Cusick's departure is just the latest dismissal from one of Rhimes' shows, following Tim Daly being fired from "Private Practice" and Chyler Leigh and Kim Raver leaving "Grey's Anatomy."
Meanwhile, recurring "Scandal" actor Joshua Malina, who plays U.S. Attorney David Rosen, has been bumped up to series regular.
What do you think this means for Season 2 story lines?

Nutrition: Udi's Vs. Other Gluten Free Breads
Written by: Kristin Kirkpatrick. Kristin is a registered dietitian and wellness manager. She also provides expert opinions for several major magazines as well as media and web outlets. Her specialties include weight management, nutritional genomics, dieting on a budget and community/worksite wellness.
A balanced, healthy diet is essential for optimal health. Studies show that individuals who eat whole grain products, lean and plant based sources of protein and plenty of fruits and vegetables have less chronic disease and are more likely to be a normal weight. Studies have also indicated that many Americans find adhering to a healthy diet challenging. For the gluten sensitive individual or celiac patient, it is even more daunting. As the need for gluten free living increases, consumers can expect to see hundreds of products hitting the shelves. My gluten free patients are constantly telling me how confused they are when comparing product labels, so I've decided to do it for them. I've put three popular brands up to the test, Udi's, Genius by Glutino and Rudi's to see which one provides the most nutrition with the greatest taste.
The most striking difference among the breads is that the Udi's whole grain bread had less calories, carbohydrates, fat and more protein than the Genius by Glutino or Rudi's brands. Additionally, Udi's whole grain breads had less simple sugars and more fiber per slice than Rudi's multigrain breads, and Udi's Millet Chia bread had significantly more fiber than Genius by Glutino's multigrain bread. When compared to both breads, Udi's was the only brand that had omega 3 fatty acids in their products. Omegas 3s have been shown to help ward off heart disease, inflammation and even depression. Udi's whole grain hamburger buns and pizza crusts came out on top again with more protein and less fat than Rudi's. Finally, Udi's products generally had less sodium than Genius by Glutino's or Rudi's products.
The chart below outlines the relevant differences in calories, protein and fiber amongst the three brands.

Nutrition is important but taste and texture is what really makes or breaks a product. I tried several products from all three brands and found that Udi's breads not only tasted the best but from a texture standpoint, stood up better than the other brands when used in a sandwich, toasted alone or made in a pan as a Panini.

Would you comment on the gossip over the addition of cellulose (or wood pulp) to foods, such as Udi's breads? Is it harmful, bad, or just weird?
Have you ever thought about doing any type of pre-made gluten free cookie dough line or raisin bread or even cinnamon rolls? Would love to see something like these items hit the shelves.
Great Bread—-do you have a raisan bread?

Given its reputation for quality and dependability, the Toyota Corolla has long been a darling of compact-car buyers in the U.S.
In fact, Toyota customer loyalty has become so blinkered lately that those buyers are willfully ignoring poor reviews and even a shattering series of recalls and are continuing to buy Corollas based on their experience with Toyota vehicles that were built in the past.
But today there are other suitors vying for their affections, including the new 2011 Hyundai Elantra. At first, having a Hyundai in the family might seem like a bad idea, given the automaker's past reputation for spotty quality and copycat engineering in previous models. But all that's in the past and the Elantra that's asking you out on a date today is improved, suave and gainfully employed. It's an invitation that car shoppers should consider seriously.
2011 Hyundai Elantra GLS
Price: $17,080 (base), $18,480 (as tested, including $720 shipping)
EPA fuel economy: 29 mpg city, 40 mpg highway
Pros: Stylish design, thrifty efficiency, accessible price.
Cons: Hyundai brand image, and still too much Korean parts content (65 percent) for a U.S. assembled car.
Verdict: Best value in the segment.
Standard equipment: 148-hp 1.8-l engine, 6-speed automatic transmission, power windows, locks and mirrors, AM/FM/XM satellite radio with iPod input, air conditioning.
Major options: Preferred equipment package, including 16-inch aluminum wheels, steering wheel audio controls, Bluetooth hands-free phone system.
Safety equipment: Electronic stability control with traction control, anti-lock brakes with electronic brake force distribution and brake assist, front, front-seat side, and side curtain airbags, front-seat belt pretensioners, tire pressure monitoring.

After all, the Elantra is a handsome devil. Just take a look at its dynamically flowing lines, with a slashing character line rising from behind the front wheel and encompassing the front and rear door handles on its flight rearward over the back wheel before plunging into the taillight lens.
The result is a car that strongly echoes the design of the mid-sized Sonata, which earned its own well-deserved acclaim. The contoured headlights lend a thoroughly contemporary style to the Elanta's front end, and the emphatic wheel arches, chamfered corners and channeled fog light openings visually minimize the front overhang that visually puts the cart before the horse of so many front-drive cars.
But the real news is beneath that handsome hood. For years, Honda has been legendary for its engine design prowess, a skill that led the company to remind anyone who would listen that the company's full name is Honda Motor Co., with the emphasis on "motor."
During Hyundai's two decades of tribulations in the U.S. vehicle market, among the various mispronunciations of the "hun-day" name was for many owners to say it as "hon-day," in a less-than-subtle attempt to confuse the relatively lightly regarded Korean newcomer with its established, and esteemed, Japanese rival. (Even the Hyundai logo on the hood looks like an italicized version of Honda's "H" logo.)
This was understandable. Honda has set the benchmark for engine technology, design and performance for decades. Until now, that is. The new Hyundai Elantra boasts more horsepower, more torque and better fuel economy than the 2012 Honda Civic.
Its transmissions — both automatic and manual — have more gears as both are six-speeds. The bottom line is the Elantra costs less and performs better than the best-selling model in the compact segment, the Honda Civic.
Of course, my friends at Honda will quickly point out that, well, they have an app for that, so to speak. Honda offers a high-efficiency version of the Civic that edges out the Elantra's 29 mpg city, 40 mpg highway EPA fuel economy rating, although it will probably account for 2-3 percent of Civic sales based on the history of such models. And Honda offers a sporty, pricey Civic Si hot-rod version crammed with the bigger, thirstier engine from the Accord, which is definitely faster than the Elantra.
But Hyundai's engineers have outdone Honda's by giving every Elantra exemplary fuel economy and performance, at no extra charge. Sure, the difference in fuel economy is slight, as is the difference in horsepower and torque, the number of gears and the performance. But overall I think the Elantra outdoes the Civic.
For Hyundai to unseat Honda in any of these categories is unexpected. For Hyundai to upset Honda in all of them is shocking because it speaks to the Elanta's excellence and the determination of its engineers to do the job right. No automaker lucks into a victory over Honda.
It's not that Honda's quality has declined, but rather that the automaker has long been the benchmark of most manufacturers in terms of fuel efficiency, performance and clever engineering. Those competitors have long targeted Honda, but they rarely landed a shot, until now.
Also, as the best-selling model in the segment, the Civic is a natural point of comparison for many shoppers. Other models — such as the Toyota Corolla and the 2011 Volkswagen Jetta — are out of the running because of those companies' apparent contempt for customers by offering cars that have been cheapened to the point of insulting shoppers' intelligence.

The new Chevrolet Cruze matches up well, on the strength of a handsome cabin, and only the 2012 Ford Focus presents a more impressive alternative to the Elantra. But while the Focus is almost indisputably the top car in the segment, that leadership does not come cheaply. Consumers who are unable or unwilling to spend an extra couple of grand on a fabulously attired Focus may conclude that the close-second Elantra represents the smarter value.
Unlike many competitors, the Elantra is only available in a single body style — a four-door sedan. A compact wagon, the Elantra 5, based on the previous generation car, is also available, but that is currently an out-of-date vehicle that isn't comparable to this excellent new Elantra model.
Story: Ford expands F-150 pickup recall to 1.2 million vehiclesOthers have found great success selling three- and five-door hatchbacks in the compact segment, but so far Hyundai is satisfied to concentrate on the mainstream four-door sedan portion of the market. The Elantra's lively dynamics suggest that a fun sporty version of the car would be well-received, especially if it were available in the hatchback style that defines the "hot hatch" segment.
As more customers drive the Elantra (and the Ford Focus), word may leak out to drivers who've been the faithful to other brands (to their own detriment of late). They'll be thrilled to discover that they need not tolerate ugly hard cabin surfaces, numb, disconnected steering, soggy suspension and grumbling, thirsty engines just because they want to buy an economical small car.
The Elantra's still standing out there on the welcome mat with the flowers. Go ahead and let it in.

GW Women's Soccer Donates Kits to Girls Kick It! Project
Colonials Team with Organization to Aid Northern Ugandan Refugees
Jan. 3, 2013
WASHINGTON – As the George Washington women's soccer team competed in its first season under first-year head coach Sarah Barnes this past fall, the Colonials were also involved in a separate off-the-pitch endeavor – collecting and donating soccer gear to the Girls Kick It! project in Northern Uganda.
In line with the Department of Athletics and Recreation's and the university's initiative of community service, the GW squad teamed up with Girls Kick It! (GKI) – a community-based women's soccer program that uses sport to empower young women and girls in Northern Uganda – and collected soccer-related items such as cleats, shorts, socks and sports bras over the course of the fall semester. The items were then shipped to GKI and distributed to its participants.
GKI was developed in 2006 by GW alumna Anna Phillips ('07) after she took a short trip to Uganda during her sophomore year where she served as a volunteer for Global Youth Partnership in Africa. The organization has implemented the philosophy that sport can be a vehicle to build confidence and improve overall health for girls and women living in Northern Uganda. A region plagued by war for over 20 years, GKI formed as an outreach for refugees to develop life skills while also providing healthy and economically sustainable opportunities for young girls and women living in internally displaced persons camps.
In early fall of 2012 Phillips reached out to Colonials' assistant coach Emma Wright to see if GW would be interested in donating soccer equipment or attire to the GKI organization. The Colonials' team then took it upon itself to collect clothing and equipment throughout the season.
"Donating items we knew these women could use was an incredible way for our team to give back and see the impact that was made," said Coach Wright, who oversaw the collection drive. "These women do not have the access to a lot of things that we take for granted and it makes us understand and appreciate what we have that much more. Our players truly valued this experience and it gave them a lot of joy to help in any way they could."
"The goal of our program is to help support and identify a generation of empowered girls and young women to rebuild their community and nation after over two decades of civil war," Phillips said. "We offer these women a place to have an active voice and role in decision-making and development. We have learned that the girls and women who participate with GKI take on a long-term leadership role in their community and we hope they continue to become advocates for changing the development paradigm in Northern Uganda."

Where you can buy signed copies of ADAPTATION – UPDATED
Hello lovely readers! I'm about halfway through an autumn full of book events for the publication of Adaptation, and I wanted to let you know that even if the events haven't been near you, you can still get signed copies of Adaptation.
Yesterday I joined fellow YA authors Janni Lee Simner, Mette Ivie Harrison, Cindy Pon, and Sarah Rees Brennan at Powell's (we were at the Cedar Hills branch) for a wonderful event. Here we are:
It was so fun to be at the giant Powell's! And now they have signed copies of Adaptation that you can order online at powells.com. All you have to do when you order is note that you'd like a signed copy (there should be a field for you to enter special requests), which they have in stock at the Beaverton/Cedar Hills location.
You can also order signed copies from Books of Wonder in New York, where I signed many many many copies in September.
Last but not least, you can always get signed copies of all my books from Book Passage in California. If they don't have a signed version in stock, or if you want it personalized, just let them know and they'll contact me and I will come into the store and sign it for you.
I know that there are many places for you to buy books, and some of them may seem easier than going to an independent bookseller's website and figuring out how to work through their order forms, but if you have the means, I do encourage you to buy from one of these independent bookstores. They do so much to help me as an author by hosting me (and other authors!) for events, publicizing those events, and placing those books on the shelves so people can see them and be drawn in by the covers or by reading the jacket copy.
This is also a good time to remind you that if you're in the San Francisco Bay Area, I'll be at Books Inc Palo Alto tonight at 7 p.m. for a Not Your Mother's Book Club event with Libba Bray and Rachel Cohn. Afterward, you'll also be able to order signed copies from Books Inc!
Finally, many many thanks to all of you who have bought my books already! You are the best!
UPDATED 10/23/12: Signed copies of my books can now also be purchased via the Fountain Bookstore in Richmond, Virginia.

Arrival Nairobi. Meet and greet and escorted to The Stanley Hotel in the heart of the city by Holiday Kenya safaris representatives. You will be assisted with check-in procedures. Rest of the afternoon is spent on a Nairobi orientation sightseeing featuring visits to Nairobi's principal land marks, the parliament buildings, and the capital hill to have a panoramic view of Nairobi. Situated in the Central Highlands at an altitude of 6,130 feet (1,870 meters), Nairobi enjoys a mild climate. On our driving tour of the city and its surroundings we will see Uhuru Park, Kenya's Parliament House, the Kenyatta Conference Centre, City Square and some of Nairobi's nicest suburbs. We visit the Kenya National Museum with our guide to learn about Kenya's wildlife, geology and human history. This evening, we assemble for a safari briefing before proceeding to the famous Carnivore Restaurant for a mouth-watering barbecue "Welcome to Kenya" dinner. Return to your city hotel. Overnight at NAIROBI SAFARI CLUB. [Dinner, Bed & Breakfast]
Day 02 - Nairobi - The Aberdare (The Ark Hotel)
Our safari begins with the thrill of overnight game viewing in the comfort of a Tree Hotel. The lush hills of Aberdare National Park are covered by Kenya's densest forest and form the eastern flank of the Great Rift Valley. Outside the park itself we pass many ranches, coffee plantations and early European settlements. We leave our main luggage at the base hotel and continue with just our overnight bags to one of the famous "tree hotels", deep in the Aberdare Forest. On our journey to our lodge we hope to see typical forest-dwelling animals such as the black and white Columbus Monkeys. A special feature of the lodge where we stay is the floodlit watering hole where we can watch from the lodge itself throughout the night as a great variety of animals come down to drink. Different species of animals are active during the night compared with during the day and many shy species such as rhinos will only approach the lodge at night. It is fascinating to watch their behavior around the watering hole as they take turns in drinking from the watering hole and eating the salt which is put out for them at the 'salt lick'. In the morning we hope to have spectacular views towards jagged outline of Mount Kenya. There is also excellent bird watching from the lodge terrace into the surrounding trees. Overnight at THE ARK HOTEL. (Lunch, Dinner, Bed and breakfast)
Day 03 - Aberdare - Samburu Game Reserve
Driving north we pass Mount Kenya, Africa's second highest mountain at 17,000 feet (5,199 metres). The massive size of this mountain and its gleaming and eroded snow-covered multiple peaks means that Mount Kenya dominates the surrounding countryside and even affects the local climate. This is also the traditional homeland of the Kikuyu people, the largest of Kenya's 40 recognized tribes. The Kikuyu believe that their god, Ngai, lives on Mount Kenya and so they build their homes with the doors facing towards the mountain, to welcome their god in. We cross the Equator again into the northern hemisphere on our way to Samburu Game Reserve in a semi-desert area of Kenya. Samburu is located on the Ewaso Nyiro River. In this dry land the forested riverbanks are excellent areas to see wildlife, as all animals congregate here to drink, especially at dusk and early in the morning. This afternoon we take a game drive in the park. First of 2 nights in Samburu. SAMBURU GAME LODGE (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner).
Day 04 - Samburu Game Reserve
Early morning and afternoon game drives in Samburu Game Reserve, which covers 40 square miles (104 square kilometers). Ololokwe Table Mountain forms a dramatic backdrop to our game viewing today. In Samburu we are sure to see elephants, warthogs and buffalo, which can be seen in many of Kenya's parks, but we should also see animals not found in other areas. These include the Grevy's Zebra, which has much narrower and more numerous stripes than the common (Burchell's) zebra. Samburu is also home to the third of Kenya's giraffe species - the Reticulated Giraffe. This is also our best chance to see the blue-legged Somali Ostrich, the long-necked Gerenuk gazelle and the straight-horned Beisa Oryx antelope. Down by the river we hope to see crocodiles and hippos, as well as many beautiful birds. Overnight in SAMBURU GAME LODGE. (Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner).
Day 05 - Samburu �" Sweetwater's Sanctuary (Chimpanzee Sanctuary)
We drive back south from Samburu to the Equator and the slopes of Mount Kenya. Although situated on the Equator, Mount Kenya is permanently covered in glaciers and snow. Here we stay at the Sweetwaters Game Reserve. This very special 23,000 acre wildlife sanctuary was originally established to protect and breed highly-endangered Black Rhinos. In 1994 the Jane Goodall Institute established the Sweetwater's Chimpanzee Sanctuary within the game reserve and moved a large group of chimps here from the unstable situation in their native West Africa. This afternoon we have a game drive in the reserve and tour the Chimpanzee Sanctuary. Overnight at SWEETWATERS TENTED CAMP (Lunch, dinner, Bed and Breakfast)
Optional Camel Ride or a Night Game Drive available here
Day 06 - Sweetwaters - Rift Valley Lakes (Lake Nakuru)
This morning we drive across the equator and descend the Nyandarua Escarpment into the Great Rift Valley and visit Thomson Falls. The Valley floor in Kenya is studded with volcanoes and seven lakes. These lakes fluctuate greatly in size according to the quality of the rains during the monsoons each year, sometimes drying up altogether. Arrive in time for lunch. This afternoon we take a game drive in Lake Nakuru National Park often described as the world's biggest ornithological spectacle. This lake is famous for its flocks of over one million Greater and Lesser Flamingoes. The abundance of these birds is due to the alkaline mineral salts in the water, which support vast blooms of the blue-green algae and diatoms on which the flamingoes feed. As well as seeing many large game animals such as zebras, elephants and gazelles, this is one of our best chances of seeing rhinos. These highly endangered animals are the second largest land animals in the world. Lake Nakuru National Park was the first place in Kenya selected as a rhino reserve. Here is one of the few places where we can see Rothschild's giraffes. Overnight at the LAKE NAKURU LODGE. (Lunch, Dinner, Bed & Breakfast).
Day 07 - Lake Nakuru - Lake Naivasha - Masai Mara
After a morning game drive, we leave for the Masai Mara located further south into the Great Rift Valley. The Valley floor in Kenya is studded with volcanoes and seven lakes. These lakes fluctuate greatly in size according to the quality of the rains during the monsoons each year, sometimes drying up altogether. Driving south along the Great Rift Valley we come to Lake Naivasha. Even though this lake is on the floor of the Valley, it is still situated at about 6,200 feet (1,890 metres) above sea level. Naivasha presents a mystery - even though the lake has no apparent outflows, its waters are fresh. The other lakes of the Valley also have only way of losing water, by evaporation, but they are very alkaline. Because it is one of the largest sources of fresh water in Kenya, Lake Naivasha attracts a huge variety of birds in large numbers. It is a bird-watchers' paradise. After lunch, we make our way to Kenya's premier wildlife park - the Masai Mara. This is the northern section of the Serengeti Plain, which is home to the greatest concentration of game animals in the world. Overnight first of 3 nights in the Masai Mara at KEEKOROK LODGE (Lunch, Dinner, Bed & Breakfast).
Day 08 - Masai Mara Game Reserve
The vast, open grasslands of the Serengeti-Mara are home to over 3 million large mammals. These include over 1.4 million wildebeest, which migrate in an enormous, straggling herd each year between the southern part of the Serengeti to the northern part and back again. With them move other herbivores such as gazelles and zebra, also looking for the best grass. Along the way they provide food for big predators such as lions, leopards and cheetahs. Here we learn about and see first hand the intricate web of dependency that binds the different species together. Each animal has adapted to its own niche and to the other animals that surround it. Here we see Nature at its most subtle and, sometimes, most cruel as each animal struggles to survive and reproduce. On our morning and afternoon game drives in the Masai Mara we have a very good chance of seeing all the major Plains animals including lion, leopard, buffalo, elephant, rhino, hyena, cheetah, jackal, warthog and many species of antelope. Overnight second of 3 nights in the Masai Mara at KEEKOROK LODGE (Lunch, Dinner, Bed & Breakfast).
Day 09 - Masai Mara Game Reserve
We continue to explore this miraculous area on our morning and afternoon game drives. This open grassland is home to almost every species of East African wildlife including lions, elephants, rhinos, buffaloes, wildebeests, gazelles, and zebras. This is one of the most spectacular sights in the world. Today we also encounter and learn about the Masai, a proud tribal people struggling to preserve their traditions in the face of modernization. At sunset we will visit a section of the Mara River where we hope to see many hippos. Overnight third of the 3 nights in the Masai Mara at KEEKOROK LODGE (Lunch, Dinner, Bed & Breakfast).
Day 10 - Drive Back To Nairobi and Depart
After breakfast, say 'Kwaheri' (a Swahili word for bye) to Masai Mara and leisurely drive back to Nairobi, arriving at around mid-day and in time for lunch at the Nairobi's Rangers Restaurant. Day rooms have been reserved until 1800 hrs for your comfort at The Stanley Hotel. Optional Dinner at the Carnivore Restaurant - time permitting. Later we transfer you to the airport for your home bound/ departure flight having seen Kenya probably for the first time! This marks the end of your Kenya Safari Adventure.

I like Lillian "Lilly", Melanie "Lanie", Margaret "Meg" or "Maggie", Amelia "Mia", Josephine "Josie", and Susannah "Susie".I prefer Olivia to Livia and I like "Liv" or "Livvy" and I like Marina but prefer the nn "Mari"
My only issues are I worry that Lilly, Mia, and Susie might seem too soft. Also I dislike Lanie being pronounced lan-ee, I prefer lahn-ee but that isn't the natural pronunciation you'd get from Melanie.
Margaret is great since it has so much nn potential. Mara, Mari, Meg, Mags, and Maggie are all nn's I think that could fit her.
Actually on the very short list of names I've come up with before asking for help Josephine nn Jo and/or Josie was on it.
Thanks for all of your suggestions. :)

Movie SummaryLancelot of the Lake (Lancelot Du Lac)
Description: As with his earlier Trial of Joan of Arc, French-filmmaker Robert Bresson effectively casts unknowns in his interpretation of the Knights of the Round Table saga. Breaking with the standard romantic spin on this legend, Bresson offers us a selfish, ruthless Lancelot, no better than the other grubby nobles who seek but fail to find the Holy Grail. Returning from his futile mission, Lancelot callously renews his affair with King Arthur's Guenevere, who likewise is depicted in less than sympathetic terms. Expectedly, the dream of Camelot is dashed to bits; Bresson argues that Camelot was never any more than a dream--or rather, a delusion. The mudcaked cinematography of Pasqualino de Santis adds to the iconoclastic flavor of Lancelot of the Lake.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide Movie summaries and listings powered by Cinema-Source

The MXR M-108 EQ delivers total control. After all, that's really what guitarists want, isn't it?
The MXR M-108 provides extreme control over the ten most crucial frequencies for guitar. But that's not all. With separate input gain and output volume sliders, the M-108 also provides a ridiculous amount of level control. So you can not only dictate what your guitar sounds like but also where it sits in the mix.
Make a fill or a solo jump to the forefront. Give a thin-sounding single-coil the girth to stand up to a high-output humbucker. Turn a vintage one-channel amp into a two-channel firebreather. Create scooped-mid death tones, midrange-heavy singing lead sounds, thunderous lows, crystalline highs—you name it and the M-108 will do it. Now, who wants some?

Professional Community for Car Dealers, Automotive Marketers and Sales Managers
I have worked for many different people in my time but one of my first mentors was a very successful restaurant owner. I was relating this story the other day in a workshop of a staff meeting he led where he was talking about missed opportunities we had as waiters and I thought it is appropriate for our industry.
He said,
"What I have provided for each of you is an opportunity to run your own business here. You need to look at your job this way. I have invested in all of the things we need to run the restaurant. I have given you each tables with which you can run your own business. Now you can do the minimum, ask the customer what they want and deliver it in a most basic way for which you will receive basic tips or compensation. But you could take that same number of people and lead them through the experience. Using the training we have given you offer them appetizers; explain the menu in a way that gets the customer seeing the food in their head, explain what wine works best so they will order a bottle and then get them to close out the meal with a dessert or after dinner drinks. Then you will have larger checks, thus larger compensation from the same number of people.
My question to each of you is, what kind of business do you want to run?"
I can see If these words came from an owner to their sales and service staff, it could have the same meaning.
Each of us every day should ask ourselves if we are looking at what we do as running our own business and following our processes in order to deliver the customer experience the company is offering – or if we doing it our own way.
Funny how something so simple at the time, over 20 years ago, will impact you long term. I have never forgotten this meeting and continue to pass it's wisdom on during all of my training workshops.
Let me know your thoughts.
Thank you for sharing this with us Glenn, it truly is a great way to view your position at your employment, whatever it may be. A lot of times salespeople feel like "everyone" is out to get them but what are they doing? And how can they change it? If they treat their customer as THEIR own rather than just the dealership's then I am 100% sure their referral rate will go up and they could bring even more business in, not just for us, the dealership, but for THEMSELVES. Their customers will love their service to them and spread the word... If more employees thought like this, especially in our industry, it could change the way people think of Car Salespeople---not the slimy guy you want to avoid but maybe as a friend.
I agree. It usually comes down to you but having someone lay it out in this manner helped us at the time to realize our own individual potential. Thanks for the feedback. spread the word
Aaron, I am humbled by the comparison to Gary. He is someone who I have a huge amount of respect for.
thanks for the comments
Glenn, this is so meaningful. No matter what job I've done in the past, I have always considered myself self-employed. Of course your employer believes you work for him/her, but in reality, you work for yourself. Do you want to be a leader? Do you want to be successful? Whatever you want, you make it happen by your own initiative. It's ALL attitude!

And a lot of people don't prefer the flat sound either -- it sounds a little bland and un-musical, at least to my ears. If you compare the Etymotic ER4P to the Shure SE530, you'll note how the SE530 sounds much more bass-and-mid focused, but it's in a good way. Ultimately, it's personal preference.
Obviously, though, for accurate monitoring purposes, you definitely want a flat response. I can't wait to see how well this fares against the UE-10, which I believe is the current undisputed neutrality-king. |
It is like going to a really high-end 3 michelin star restaurant and throwing ketchup on everything because it tastes more "familiar/comfortable".
Or buying a Picasso and putting it behind yellow glass because you like warmer colors.
Destroying what the chef/artist/engineer wanted you to experience in the process.
I think the UM3x is for me... I love flat and neutral. I am an Audiophile and Art of audio production for me is the gear that brings me closer to the recording as it is on the media it is on. Because that is the image and information the people that made the music want me to hear.

Kim K: "Kanye LOVES My Pregnancy Curves"
Kim Kardashian has gotten a lot of heat about her pregnancy weight gain (which is of course, ridiculous), but there's one person that's only been embracing her newfound changes…boyfriend Kanye West!
The 32-year old reality star says Kanye is really helping her to accept and love all the changes that are happening to her body…and making her feel all the more confident in their growing family! Says Kim via USWeekly:
"It's just such an exciting thing, I think, for the guys to see our bodies go through all these different changes," she explained. "He loves it and just embraces it. And he's helped me to really feel sexy and embrace it."
Indeed, as the April 1 issue of Us Weekly reveals, the rapper is totally on board with his girlfriend's curves. "Kanye thinks Kim is gorgeous," a source told Us. "He just wants her to be happy in her own skin."
Aw, I love this! Do you think Kim feels confident? She sure looks it in all her inventive maternity clothes!

Serves 6
Arguably the best way to enjoy freshly caught fish is to eat it raw. Chef Anthony Caturano keeps knives aboard his boat so he can do just that. This simple seviche works as well with striped bass as it does with fish such as fluke or snapper. If you haven't caught the fish yourself, make sure to buy it from a trusted purveyor.
1 | pound striped bass or another white fish, cut into ½-inch dice |
½ | cup lime juice |
1 | jalapeno, cored, seeded, and chopped |
Salt and black pepper, to taste |
½ | cup chopped fresh cilantro |
1 | bunch scallions (whites and light greens only), chopped |
1 | avocado, pitted and diced |
Crackers or tortilla chips (for serving) |
1. In a bowl, combine the fish, lime juice,
jalapeno, salt, black
pepper, cilantro,
scallions, and avocado.
Toss gently. Cover
and refrigerate for
10 minutes.
2. Transfer the seviche to a bowl. Serve with crackers or tortilla chips. Adapted from Anthony Caturano

Upon its emergence in the early 1970s, disco was relatively harmless. It didn't cut itself, spit in your face, or try to split your skull open with a bass guitar. But it also adversely affected a number of long-standing traditions. Among them, pioneering members of the black vanguard, as James Brown explained to writer Bruce Tucker in his autobiography, James Brown: The Godfather of Soul:
"Disco hurt me in a lot of ways. I was trying to make good hard funk records that Polydor was trying to soften up, while the people were buying records that had no substance. The disco people copied off me and tried to throw me away and go with young people."
Brown first discovered Tony Cook in 1973, playing at a block party for the WRDW-AM radio station he owned in his childhood hometown of Augusta, Georgia. Cook was still in high school at the time, but stayed in Brown's sights til the early part of 1976, when Brown began to retool the J.B.s and brought Cook aboard as his new drummer. Cook would hold this position off and on for the next thirty years until Brown's death on Christmas Day in 2006.
As work with the J.B.s slowed in the disco era, Cook moved to London and went independent, scoring a deal in 1981 with Osceola Records and producing the first Tony Cook and the Party People singles. The next year, he began working with the Halfmoon label, releasing the seminal "On the Floor" and "On the Floor (Rock-It)" mixes by WBLS-FM DJs Timmy Regisford and Boyd Jarvis.
"On the Floor" found Cook successfully merging funk and disco, although that was not the original intent. The drummer-turned-producer was admittedly trying to score a hit, and to do so, chose to ride the other emerging genre of the day. "'On the Floor' was a rap record at first," he reveals. "Regisford and Jarvis took the master and re-recorded a few things, added a few things. Then, we didn't know what to call it, but it definitely wasn't a rap record anymore. It had more of a dance kind of thing going through it. And it had a little bit of techno to it. When we released it in 1984, the phrase 'garage' came out, then 'house' came out, and someone called it 'The Granddaddy of all House Records', so we knew we had something different and new."
"I first became aware of Tony through the song 'On the Floor'," says Chris "Peanut Butter Wolf" Manak. Manak is the founder of Stones Throw Records, home of Cook's Back to Reality anthology, a collection of rare and unreleased funk, boogie, and proto-rap from the immediate post-disco era. "I found the record in NYC about seven or eight years ago and started playing it in my DJ sets. It sounded like the missing link between funk and house music. For being released in 1984, to me, it seemed like the first house record. I loved playing it."
The Back to Reality selections were originally recorded as side projects during Cook's work for Halfmoon. These offerings remain as fresh today as when they were originally recorded. The songs symbolize independence and a willingness to adapt, and having been on hold for so many years, are a timely addition to the present boogie and post-disco resurgence. "It's bringing me back to where I left off in the early '80s," Cook muses, "and I feel fortunate to have had the chance to be a part of that era." Nearly thirty years later, he is finally getting back to his reality.

I don't have much of experience with combat, but if I am to believe the popular media on this subject (and my army training did enforce that view) it usually is a total chaos and as a programmer I do see here much similarity with many programming projects. I think the points about managing in the face of a total mess could be very insightfull.

Include Java file in HTML Page
As you can tell by the title, I am very new to Java.
I have a html page that I need to include a java file in.
The user enters in their login id and password and then I check

Right now, I can't even get the file to be included in my

Thank you.

I suggest that you look at JSP. In my opinion what you are asking for should be easily achievable in JSP.

Yes, you have to learn about server side programming in Java. As rajiv_bang says you have to go for JSP, nice your application should be more secure.

DARTMOUTH — Looking for a great opportunity to see the world with a comfortable group of friends and family members? Then you'll want to hear more about the Dartmouth Friends of the Elderly new group travel program.
The FOE has planned three great vacation packages for Dartmouth area folks — a New Year's Getaway to California to ring in 2015, an April trip to magnificent France, and a tour of the Imperial Cities of Europe in August of 2015.
The three group vacations planned in cooperation with Collette Travel will be a major fundraiser for the continuing good works undertaken in the community in 2015, said FOE president Maria Connor. "This is a great opportunity for people in the community to travel together, and help raise a lot of money for the senior center, and FOE programs," she explained.
The California Getaway to Long Beach includes previewing floats for the famed Tournament of Roses Parade, a New Year's Eve gala dinner dance, and reserved seating for parade-viewing on New Year's Day.
The April 18-29 trip is best described as a wine-tasting train journey through France, beginning in Paris and including a visit to historic D-Day landing sites and cemeteries, Loire Valley chateaux and parks, and a stop in Cezanne's beloved Avignon.
The final vacation opportunity organized by Collette Travel is a grand tour of the Imperial Cities of Europe — Prague, Vienna, and Budapest — with highlights such as a cruise along the immortal Danube River.
"Come with us, and we're sure to have a good time," Connor said of FOE supporters and friends. Informational brochures with special pricing for early bookings are available at the Dartmouth Senior Center on Dartmouth Street.
For more information, contact Maria Connor at (508) 999-4717 or e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com.

The ongoing battle between hedge fund titans Bill Ackman, Carl Icahn, and Daniel Loeb over Herbalife (NYSE:HLF) has developed into a solid of example of an old adage: for all the posturing and bravado that accompanies high-sake investing, timing is everything in financial markets.
Ackman's position — he announced in December that his firm, Pershing Square Capital, went short on Herbalife for the tune of $1 billion — stands in direct opposition to that of Loeb and Icahn, both of whom have invested in the company that Ackman has famously called a pyramid scheme. Yet, for now, all three investors are in the black.
Loeb's hedge-fund firm, Third Point, has made at least $50 million on its estimated $200-million stake, as a source familiar with the firm's business told The Wall Street Journal. As Third Point has largely exited its Herbalife stake, Loeb has cashed out much more than the other two investors. For Ackman and Icahn, the gains have only been on paper, but profits have been made nonetheless. Icahn has generated approximately $25 million in unrealized gains on his $590 million investment, while Ackman has raked in more than $200 million in paper profits on his bet of more than $1 billion.
The estimate of Icahn's profits was obtained by the Journal from a calculation based on the average price at which he purchased the shares, a figure derived from an analysis of regulatory filings. Despite the criticism heaped on Herbalife by Ackman since he took his short position in December and his belief that the company's business is ultimately unsustainable, its stock price has remained above Icahn Enterprises' (NASDAQ:IEP) average cost per share…

ATLANTA, Dec. 3 (UPI) -- There was a sharp spike in influenza for the week of Nov. 18 especially in the Southeast and parts of the Midwest, U.S. officials said.
A report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta said of 5,342 specimens tested, 15.2 percent were positive for influenza.
Five states experienced high influenza-like illness activity -- Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin -- two states experienced moderate influenza-like illness activity and four states experienced low influenza-like illness activity. New York City and 39 states experienced minimal -- hardly any -- influenza-like illness activity and the District of Columbia had insufficient data.
Flu vaccines are designed to protect against three influenza viruses that influenza experts predict will be the most common during the upcoming season. Three kinds of influenza viruses commonly circulate among people: influenza B viruses, influenza A (H1N1) viruses, and influenza A (H3N2) viruses. Each year, one flu virus of each kind is used to produce seasonal influenza vaccine.
The 2012-2013 influenza vaccine is made from the following three viruses:
-- An A/California/7/2009 (H1N1)pdm09-like virus.
-- An A/Victoria/361/2011 (H3N2)-like virus.
-- A B/Wisconsin/1/2010-like virus from the B/Yamagata lineage of viruses.

Canelo Alvarez still hasn't signed his contract to co-headline on May 4th with Floyd Mayweather. The reason isn't that Canelo has a problem fighting Austin Trout, but he wants Floyd Mayweather to guarantee if they both win that he will fight him in the fall. That is something Mayweather isn't ready to do.
Issue with Alvarez-Trout is, from what I'm told, Floyd's unwillingness to commit contractually to an Alvarez fight in the fall (more)
— Dan Rafael (@danrafaelespn) February 27, 2013
From what I'm told, Floyd has a tough fight in front of him w/ Guerrero. That's his focus. So if he wont sign for a fall Canelo fight (more)
— Dan Rafael (@danrafaelespn) February 27, 2013
Canelo unsure he wants to be on Floyd's undercard, bringing attention & $$ to show but minus guarantee he gets Floyd, which is what he wants
— Dan Rafael (@danrafaelespn) February 27, 2013
From what I'm told, Canelo is fine to fight Trout or whomever GB wants to make, but not on Floyd's card w/out guarantee of a Floyd fight
— Dan Rafael (@danrafaelespn) February 27, 2013
I see both sides to this, but if you are Canelo you have to think about it from a wider perspective. If he is on the Mayweather card, that means he is also going to be getting that love from CBS. Granted, he will be making Mayweather more money without a guarantee but there is a big difference being on a card on a Mayweather card with the full CBS/Showtime promotional push going on during NCAA March Madness and headling a random date in June on Showtime
Even if, Canelo did a PPV it wouldn't come close to doing Mayweather type numbers. Plus, if Canelo is impressive, the public will pressure Mayweather to fight him sooner rather than later.
From a business perspective, it would be best to just fight on the May 4th card, but we shall see what happens.

A DOG died in a house fire in Melplash on the morning of new year's day.
Firefighters from Beaminster and Bridport were called to the property at around 6am where a conservatory was on fire.
The assistance of a retained crew from Charmouth was also requested.
It is thought the blaze was started by a tea light or electrical fault with Christmas lights.
The dog was found deceased in another room at the property.
