Press Release AAHIVM Encouraged by TMC125 ApprovalNew HIV Medication Could Offer More Options for Treatment-Experienced Patients
January 22, 2008 Washington, D.C. -- The American Academy of HIV Medicine (AAHIVM), a national organization of HIV-treating physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants, praised the accelerated U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of the anti-HIV medication TMC125 (etravirine), the first non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) to be introduced in nearly 10 years, and the first to show antiviral activity in treatment-experienced adult patients with NNRTI-resistant virus. NNRTI drug resistance occurs when HIV develops mutations that partially or completely stop the NNRTI from binding to the reverse transcriptase enzyme, causing the drug to lose effectiveness. "With the FDA's accelerated approval of TMC125, we are encouraged by the increased treatment options that are now available for our patients," said AAHIVM Board Chair Jeffrey Schouten, MD, AAHIVS. "With antiretroviral therapy now in its third decade, HIV care providers have increasing concern over the cross-resistance of the NNRTI class. A patient resistant to one NNRTI is generally resistant to the other NNRTIs available, which significantly limits our options with our longtime and treatment-experienced patients. This drug may also be very useful for people who are infected with an NNRTI-resistant strain of HIV which is not uncommon. TMC125 offers HIV care providers another treatment option that could dramatically increase the capacity for continued success in their patients' long-term HIV care." FDA-accelerated approval procedures allow for earlier approval of drugs that provide a meaningful therapeutic advantage over existing treatment for serious or life-threatening diseases. Longer-term data will be required before the FDA can consider traditional approval of TMC125. Dr. Schouten emphasized the importance of closely monitoring changes to any treatment regimen to recognize possible barriers to treatment adherence and to maximize potential for treatment success.

The tourism industry has been complaining about not being treated equal to exporters based on its foreign exchange earnings. They are usually debarred from the benefits exporters of the goods receive inspite of receiving foreign exchanges. Tourism has been adversely affected and the industry is hoping the government will address their concern in the Union Budget 2014.
Here are some of the expectations that the tourism department has from the new government's Budget 2014.
Exempt Service Tax
Tour operators are expecting exemption of service tax on tour packages in Budget 2014. The tour operators in India are waiting for a cut on tax which they don't usually as they receive although their payments are made in foreign exchange. Due to the service tax which has now been added, Indian packages are losing on account of competitiveness in the sector. Countries which are competing with India like China, Thailand, Sri Lanka, Singapore offer competitive prices which Indian packages fails to offer.
Stop discrimination
The Indian tourism industry is usually discriminated from tourism department of other countries. Although tourism industry earns in foreign exchange, the benefits that the exporters of goods receive are not provided to the exporters of tourism industry.
Discontinue service tax on same transaction
In the tourism industry in our country, a tour operator has many sub-contracts who manage various tours under him for the ease of working. So, eventually two operators pay the same tax as they are not allowed the CENVAT Credit. At times, there are many operators handling the same tours making them pay the same tax multiple taxes. This leads to major loses. These cases at times are more than 12.36%.
Abolish fuel surcharge
The high rising fuel prices has been having a cascading effect for the budget carrier passengers. The reintroduction of fuel surcharge has been costing a lot for domestic and international routes. Cutting of those charges would help cut the cost in travelling which would boost the air travelling.

Most Shocking for Last? Greenwald Teases NSA Spying "Finale"
Are NSA targets 'genuine terrorists,' asks the journalist, or are they 'political critics and dissidents and activists?'
Journalist Glenn Greenwald has repeatedly hinted that the largest—and potentially most shocking—revelations about NSA surveillance have yet to come.
And in an interview with The Sunday Times published over the weekend, the award-winning journalist spoke about a coming "finale" that would expose specific individuals who have been targeted by the powerful spy agency.
According to the Times' Toby Harnden, Greenwald explained that the ultimate legacy of his NSA reporting—and the decision to leak a trove of secret NSA documents by whistleblower Edward Snowden— would be "shaped in large part" by this "finishing piece" still to come.
Greenwald said:
One of the big questions when it comes to domestic spying is, 'Who have been the NSA's specific targets?'
Are they political critics and dissidents and activists? Are they genuinely people we'd regard as terrorists?
What are the metrics and calculations that go into choosing those targets and what is done with the surveillance that is conducted? Those are the kinds of questions that I want to still answer.
Greenwald told Harnden that the story to answer some of these questions will be published at his new website, The Intercerpt, later this year.
As Greenwald told GQ magazine during an in-depth interview earlier this year: "As with a fireworks show, you want to save your best for last. There's a story that from the beginning I thought would be our biggest, and I'm saving that."

Santa's Line 2 pub crawl!
Trip Start
Trip End
Well, only 1 week to go until Christmas - wow.....!! Have to say, it doesn't feel like it! Perhaps that's because we haven't had to do any Christmas shopping, get any 'Christmas' food in, and for the first time ever, no Christmas tree..... :(
well, apart from the 2 tiny ones we brought back from the bazaar with us!
It's weird, not for Andy really as he's used to being away from home, but I'm really struggling at the moment & missing everything & everyone. I'm sure if we were back home I'd be moaning & racing around trying to shop, get cards posted, trying to drink as much mulled wine as possible (at least there is plenty of that here!!). Funny how much Christmas stuff there is around, more & more decorations appearing, in our compound today, lights in the trees, trees in the lobby, a display at the entrance, and most shops are playing Christmas music. We have 4 Christmas cards, the latest 2 being from Dave & Ellie, and Steve & Roswhita – thank you very much, they mean all the more being so far away from home (and no Sarah, that's not supposed to make you feel bad for just confessing ours is still in Martin's van!!!!!)
Plans so far for Christmas include a dinner on Christmas Eve, at the Bookworm restaurant – most of the dinners advertised include mash potatoes, this one is roast potatoes, so for that alone, we are IN!!! It's a good deal, 20 quid for 3 courses & a glass of sparkling wine. Getting a group of us together for Christmas day at the moment, looks like 9 of us will go to a restaurant, a similar deal, 4 courses 22 quid so not too bad, plus drinks on top. The day is totally normal here, all the locals are working & if we were working for a Chinese company we would be too. The bonus is that meals are not over the top expensive, as they're not paying people loads to be working, and most ex pats have gone home for the holidays, so won't be too many of us about! We're pretty lucky really at work, we finish Friday and go back on the 2nd Jan, getting the British hols & the Chinese hols too! As everything is business as usual, we may chill out in the morning & go for a massage. Try & survive the day without getting too drunk ready to come home after dinner & Skype home!!
So last week, the usual for Andy bowling on Tuesday, and tonight – their team has finished 2nd in the league which is fab, and they've been invited to a competition on Saturday night too. Wednesday Andy wanted to get a hat he'd seen on the Ted Baker website, the first Ted Baker in Beijing has recently opened so off we went to explore, coming out with a fab 'flaps down' hat, photo's below!! Luckily nothing else, but it was tempting for both of us!! We were near to a Texan bar we'd seen before so thought it rude not to pop in for a beer, a very nice bar / restaurant indeed, very cosy and bargain beer on happy hour.
Thursday evening Andy met his friend Al for a drink, and I met Tracey again, went to our favourite Italian, and I had taco's which were really greasy & oily, didn't go down too well. Californian grapes after for free wine on ladies night, which I couldn't drink, and ended up having to go home ill… Andy & Al joined us so luckily Andy walked me home (in the snow, had a few centimetres) and I was rather sick, and during the night too. Wiped out on Friday so stayed in bed, and stayed in Friday night too. Andy met a few friends in town for dinner, whilst I watched a DVD.
Saturday was the big Internations Santa's line 2 pub crawl, 18 stops on the subway system, visiting various bars along the way, 18 in fact….. Andy & Bruce the organisers of the mens group had checked out the route a few weeks ago, and I was the organiser of the womens group, we had around 40 people on & off for the day which was a fab turn out. I dragged myself out of bed for it, meeting for breakfast at 10am at a restaurant near us, but somehow managed to survive the day only drinking water (with re-hydration salts!!) and herbal tea, no food, no alcohol……. It was an amazing day, we all wore Santa hats, and the most entertaining thing was watching everyone else's reactions!! We sang carols on the subway, at various locations, along the street, in the restaurants and in the more touristy areas around Tiananmen square got photographed A LOT and videoed!!!! It was so funny, the looks of amusement on their faces! Some places were proper bars, others little kiosks, restaurants, real local cafes, and a couple of convenience store stops. All were close to the subway stop, however the majority of the subways don't have escalators, or if they do it's only one way, so there were a lot of stairs to climb, ending the day shattered & suffering aching legs for a few days!! Our final stop was our local, Paddy's where the survivors gathered for the evening!! We bailed out around 10.30pm, 1 drunk, 1 sober…..!!! One of the bars wanted to call itself the hangover bar, but there is no word for it in Mandarin, so the literal translation is the 'After Drunk' bar, which I think is quite cool!!!
Sunday was of course a lazy affair, totally shattered, I'm still only eating toast, upgraded to soup yesterday so am getting better but just no appetite still. Popped out into town to stock up on DVD's, and grab a healthy smoothie, it was so cold we headed home for the afternoon for a couple of films & to chill out.
Andy had more acupuncture last night, more big thick needles…… I'm administering sometimes too but only the thin ones that don't hurt so much ;)
Whilst the guy was here, I'd been struggling to try to get i-tunes to work properly, and he told me that via baidu.com which is China's version of google (google & China do not get on….!) and you can click on a music tab, like you would maps for example, and type in pretty much anything & you can download music for free, and totally legal. How cool is that. Needless to say we've been updating our music library, as we play the i-pod so much without a decent radio station or decent tv, that we're a little bored after 7 months!
Hoping to speak to Mum tonight, Skype has been pretty rubbish quality at the moment, so hope it's ok for now & Christmas day. If anyone wants to say happy Christmas we'll be on line at some stage! Spoke to Sarah Hobday the other evening which was lovely too, and Ian as well – good to hear from you all.
Weekend temperatures set to go down to -17 at night…. flippin eck… have no idea what that will actually feel like!!! The weekend was really grey & snowy, but last 2 days very clear, and very cold. More snow forecast for Thursday. The trouble is, it gets swept aside very efficiently, and left in piles, but never melts as it stays so cold!! Reckon it will be here until the Spring!
Ah yes, work (we are still doing some, honest!!) Andy has just signed a fab deal this afternoon, so we're really pleased about that, and another one at the end of last week, very happy!
Right, that's all for now. Hope you all enjoy the week leading up to Christmas. Will check in soon with our Beijing version of events!!
Tracy & Andy

Tonight at around 7:30pm the Democratic National Convention will do a tribute to Ted Kennedy, with Joe III speaking. Governor Deval Patrick speaks a little before 10:00pm.
Last week in Tampa, I asked Obama campaign spokesperson Stephanie Cutter of Raynham, former Ted Kennedy staffer, about the Massachusetts flavor to this year's DNC, and the Kennedy tribute in particular. (As you'll see, Cutter knows how to stay on message.)

At 39 weeks, 4 days, I can finally say the nursery is done and share with you the room that has brought us much joy over the past couple months. Filling this room with lovely little baby things will be nothing compared to filling it with our special little lady and we can't wait to meet her. But enough with the sap, let's get to the room. At 12' x 5 1/2' the room is certainly tiny but I think we did a pretty good job with bringing in only the essentials and being smart with concealed storage. The photos speak for themselves and there's a lot of em so without further ado...
I decided not to register for a matching crib bedding set but fell in love with this discontinued Pottery Barn design and was thrilled to be able to find it on eBay. We only have one sheet that matches the bumper and all of our other sheets are simply complimentary colors and patterns.
I decided to forego the hanging baskets on the closet wall for now because I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for and didn't want to settle for just anything.
The hanging clothes discretely conceal the hidden storage behind!
And just for fun, let's take a look back at how this room looked shortly after we moved in and now:

Rye flour is both a pleasure and a challenge. It's a pleasure because it produces breads like old-school Jewish deli rye, German and Russian rye bread and French pain de seigle. It's a challenge because, when mixed with water, rye produces a dough that is both slippery and sticky, making it difficult to work with. That's because unlike gluten, which forms long, elastic chains, rye flour forms a viscous gel of complex sugars called pentosans.
Like gluten in wheat dough, this gel traps the CO2 produced by yeast. Unlike gluten, however, pentosans break down rapidly in the presence of the enzyme amylase, which occurs naturally in yeast and many grains. To counter this problem, bakers generally combine rye and other low-gluten flours with high-gluten flours or first clear flour.
Nutritionally, rye is rich in fiber, vitamin E, riboflavin, folacin and pantothentic acid. And unusual for a cereal grain, rye contains twice as much of the amino acid lysine as wheat, giving it one of the most complete proteins of all grains. And equally important, rye does all of this with only 75% of the calories, ounce for ounce, of wheat.
If you can learn to love its stickiness, rye is well worth the trip.
To help you explore the fascinating tastes and textures of rye, follow these links to recipes for:

Searching for the original hex data from 4.x/5.x in a 9.4 tivoapp isn't very likely to work at all. tivoapp has gone through some considerable changes since then, tivo uses a different compiler, and patches can't be ported that easily except in the case of minor sw revisions like 9.4 to 9.4b (at least not just by a simple hex compare). You'll need to identify the actual function that's being patched in 4.x and the logic used by the patch to cause the desired effects. Then if you can find a similar function in 9.4, you can translate that logic to the new function. Not a very trivial task until you brush up on a bit of mips assembly.
Start reading here, here, and of course, here.

Mark Bilsborough Odyssey, wow. The most intense writing experience I'll ever get. Packed more in than an MFA and twice as useful. Gave me all the skills I need - now it's up to me.
Taylor Colegrove
Jen Hansum I worked my butt off and loved every minute of it. In the world of SFF writing and publishing, Jeanne's wisdom and generosity as an instructor are unmatched. Surrounded by uninterrupted time for writing and by classmates just as dedicated to their craft, I learned more than I ever thought possible.
Vern James Come prepared for a marathon. Bring your great work ethic and your open mind. Avail yourself to the learning experience. Do all of this, work hard, and make every day count. On the other side, you will be a better writer.
Kenneth Kao For me, Odyssey was a little piece of Heaven on Earth. Living and dying on writing is what I want in life, and I wish it could last forever. The stress, panic, stories, friends--putting the world in the trunk, for once, made this an adventure I'll never forget. Oh, and Jeanne rocks, she wins Odyssey. I think I might cry when I leave. One of the best experiences of my life. My writing, and thus my future, is completely changed.
James Khan Jeanne is the most thorough and hard-working instructor I've ever met. Odyssey has changed me as a writer. I can't imagine a finer education or experience.
Samantha Kymmell-Harvey Thanks to Odyssey, I can now approach a story with a clear vision of what I want to convey as well as revise with a critical eye to craft that story into something special.
Jessica May Lin It's hard to believe what you will learn before you get here. Before Odyssey, I wrote without a sense of direction. I was afraid Odyssey would change my writing and take away what made it mine and unique, but I was so wrong. At Odyssey, I developed a sense of control over those gut feelings I used to have--when I sensed something was off but just could not figure out what it was. When I think of Odyssey, I think of writing furiously with friends in our self-designed "writing cave" and a growing mound of three-day-old ice cream dishes, talking about writing, dreaming about writing, and making lifelong friends I would not mind riding dragons through every cloud with. Odyssey is like a writer paradise. You might not want to change when you get here, but you will. Later, you won't want to leave, but when you do, you leave with a purpose.
Dy Loveday Causal chain, causal chain. Oh my Lord, you are a pain. If only I could get you right, then my future could be so bright. Instead I've got missing links, no goal, no turn, the story stinks. At least I know what you can do. And so I'll persevere until one day the "why" will make good sense and selling stories might pay the rent.
Kevin McNeil Attending Odyssey was an amazing experience. The best thing I've done for my writing.
Jessie Robie I learned more in six weeks at Odyssey than I did in three years in an MFA program. I believe a key moment in my writing career will be when Jeanne told me to keep being weird and quirky, because up until that moment everyone else had been discouraging me from being this kind of writer.
Christine Row The chance to sit down with Jeanne for three private meetings during the course of Odyssey was invaluable. I learned what my strengths and weaknesses were, developed strategies to hone those skills that were lacking, and realized that I'd made significant progress in only six weeks. Plus I walked away with a plan for my future and a sense that I could make a valuable contribution to the fantasy genre.

Brent Smith Odyssey will not only change your writing, it will change your life. I'm not the same person going home that I was when I arrived. I'm hopefully not only a better writer, but a better person.
Frances Snowder I leave the Odyssey Workshop with the confidence to pursue my writing goals and the humility to fuel lifelong learning.
Holly Stoj Odyssey helped me fall in love with writing all over again and realize that it's not simply a hobby, or a pastime, but something that is integral to my soul.
Chip Munk (honorary classmate) There were lots of good treats!

Web-to-print Streamlines Workflow at Steelcase
Kent Sullivan monitors new jobs coming to the in-plant using Rochester Software Associates' WebCRD software.
Al Schmidutz (left), manager of Global Output Services for Steelcase Inc., stands with his in-plant team (from left): Ronald Burke (seated), Joe Lidgard, Travis Boerema, Kent Sullivan, Hank Donker and Bill Close.
For Years, the in-plant at Steelcase Inc. received jobs in a variety of disjoined ways: e-mail, FTP and even physical drop-offs. Back in 2006, only about 40 percent of jobs were submitted electronically to the Grand Rapids, Mich.-based in-plant, mostly via e-mail. This had begun to take its toll on the productivity of the five-employee shop.
"Jobs came to the print shop in every way you could imagine, with varying degrees of accuracy of the instructions," recalls Al Schmidutz, manager of Global Output Services. This made it very difficult to maintain a fast, efficient workflow.
At first, the in-plant attempted to tackle these problems through a homegrown job submission tool; however, the internal tool struggled to keep up with customers' requirements. The ability to provide accurate production reports and submit customized, variable output remained limited. The need for a viable job submission solution, coupled with cost accounting capabilities, became critical.
Seeking New Solutions
With 13,000 employees worldwide, Steelcase—a $2.4 billion designer and manufacturer of office furniture—relies on its in-plant for a variety of documents, from forms and business cards to sales presentations, marketing collateral and product catalogs. The in-plant handles more than 800 jobs per month, using a Ricoh Pro C900 and Canon imagePRESS C7000VP for color printing and a Canon imageRUNNER 110 for black and white.
Since so many key customers rely on the in-plant's services—including dealers, corporate marketers, customer service representatives and end users—Schmidutz knew he needed to solve the shop's workflow problems. So back in 2006, he decided to explore commercial tools. He was looking for a Web-based solution that could help his print shop in several ways:
• Simplify Workflow: File submission needed to be simple and consistent for internal customers as well as production staff.
• Improve Throughput: Enabling quick and efficient job file navigation through the print shop was important.
Embedded systems such as printers and copiers have been web-enabled for at least a decade. It's interesting to see how companies are finally catching on to why this is important and how they can leverage their existing capabilities (coupled with customized software) to increase efficiency.

Sammy Cahn
From Wikiquote
Sammy Cahn (June 18, 1913 – January 15, 1993) was an American lyricist, songwriter and musician.
Song lyrics[edit]
- It seems to me I've heard that song before.
It's from an old familiar score.
I know it well, that melody.- I've Heard that Song Before (1942)
- Till you're walking beside me, I'll walk alone.
- I'll walk alone (1944)
- I fall in love too terribly hard
For love to ever last.- I Fall in Love Too Easily (1944)
- Three coins in a fountain
Each one seeking happiness
Thrown by three hopeful lovers
Which one will the fountain bless?- Three Coins in a Fountain (1954)
- When somebody loves you
It's no good unless he loves you - all the way
Happy to be near you
When you need someone to cheer you - all the way.- All the Way (1957)
- Just what makes that little old ant
Think he'll move that rubber tree plant?
Anyone knows an ant, can't
Move a rubber tree plant.
But he's got high hopes, he's got high hopes
He's got high apple pie, in the sky hopes.- High Hopes (1959)
- Call me irresponsible
Yes, I'm unreliable
But it's undeniably true
That I'm irresponsibly mad for you.- Call me Irresponsible (1963)

When I recently shared my secret for making Philly cheese steaks without the meat, I wasn't surprised to get a little pushback from meaty cheese steak lovers. (I get it. Some people just don't want their meat messed with.)
A lot of us just can't imagine a meal without a hunk of meat on the plate. But with the right recipes, you can simply swap beef, pork or chicken with a veggie-based protein and enjoy a vegetarian meal without even missing the meat. So, why bother? Here's why: even if you skip meat just once or twice a week, it's better for your health and the environment.
In honor of Earth Day on April 22, I issue this challenge to you to green up your diet: try to cook at least one meat-free meal each week for the rest of the year. Do you think you can do it? (If you want to make it official you can take the pledge with me at meatlessmonday.com and click on "Join the Movement".)
Trade in your meat for these 4 satisfying veggie options. (See how easy this is? That's a whole month's worth of once-a-week veggie meals, done!)
Beans are the perfect "gateway" food when you're going meat-free. First of all, they're convenient and cheap. You can buy a can (a whole pound!) of cooked beans for just a couple of dollars. Use them to replace meat in everything from tacos to chilli to pasta. Not only are beans delicious, they're nutrient powerhouses. On average, just 1⁄2 cup of beans provides about 7 grams of protein and up to 7 grams of fiber. I love topping baked sweet potatoes with spiced up black beans for a quick and satisfying dinner.
Recipe to Try: Sweet Potatoes with Warm Black Bean Salad
Tofu is growing in popularity among vegetarians and meat-eaters alike—and for good reason. (Tofu-phobic? This Tofu Parmigiana will change your mind!) Tofu, a great source of soy protein, also boasts significant calcium and magnesium. Plus it's super-versatile. Extra-firm tofu is ideal for stir-fries, sautés and grilling, while the soft variety makes a good substitute for ricotta in Italian dishes or for eggs in quiches. Tofu is available at natural-foods stores and most large supermarkets. Crumbled tofu makes a great meat-free lasagna filling—you can't even tell it's there hiding under all the yummy sauce and cheese.
Recipe to Try: Lasagna Rolls
If you're keen to explore vegetarian options, try protein-rich tempeh. Tempeh is a chewy, nutty, fermented soybean loaf. Find it (plain or with added grains) near refrigerated tofu in natural-foods stores and many large supermarkets. We particularly like SoyBoy 5 Grain and Lightlife Flax tempeh. After opening, wrap and refrigerate for up to 5 days. I love tempeh smothered with meaty mushrooms and provolone cheese.
Recipe to Try: Smothered Tempeh Sandwich
Seitan's toothsome texture and taste make it a perfect vegetarian stir-fry ingredient that even non vegetarians will love. Seitan is processed wheat gluten that is high in protein and has a meaty texture. You can find it in natural-foods stores or large supermarkets near the tofu. The actual weight of the seitan in a package varies depending on whether water weight is included. Look for the "drained weight" on the label. I like to add bite-size pieces of seitan to my veggie stir-fries, then toss with a rich sauce to pull all of the flavors together.
Recipe to Try: Garden-Fresh Stir-Fry with Seitan

The best Irish pubs in Lisbon
January 21, 2012 | Events, Food, Nightlife, Things to Do | Read MoreBy far the best Gaelic watering hole in Lisbon is O'Gílíns, located near the city's Cais do Sodré railway station.
This lively venue is an original Irish pub – the proprietor, Conor O'Gílín hails from Dublin. It's been pulling them in since 1995 and is hugely popular with a predominantly...


text: The VW Phaeton Is Coming Back In 2018!Matt Hardigree4/18/14 9:30amFiled to: The Morning ShiftTMSVolkswagen Phaeton1008EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink This is The Morning Shift, our one-stop daily roundup of all the auto news that's actually important — all in one place at 9:30 AM. Or, you could spend all day waiting for other sites to parse it out to you one story at a time. Isn't your time more important? Advertisement 1st Gear: When God Closes A GDI, He Opens A Phaeton There's only one real reason I buy that the Phaeton failed in the United States, despite being one of the best engineered cars ever made: Price. Advertisement The United States wasn't ready for a Volkswagen that could cost as much as $100,000, even if what you were getting was a Bentley at a crazy discount. No one explains the appeal better than Jonny did.Still, for all the effort they put into building it, they did a poor job selling it and it soldiered on in Europe while it retreated from the U.S. And yet, apparently, it's coming back. Michael Horn, CEO of VW group, told Bloomberg's Matt Miller (half of crime-fighting duo Hardigree & Miller), that they were bringing it back:"Yes we plan to bring it back somewhere in 2018, 2019"WIN! Sponsored 2nd Gear: Europeans Still Fighting For Market, Not Margins The European car market, finally, is turning around, but don't expect European automakers to suddenly start raising prices to make profits. Advertisement Per Reuters:Discounts outgrew first-quarter sales, according to the data seen by Reuters, casting doubt on the strength of the recovery and the earnings outlook for carmakers in the region. Registrations rose 10.4 percent in March, the Association of European Carmakers said, rounding off an 8.1 percent gain for the first three months, after six straight years of contraction.But average retail incentives jumped 12 percent to almost 2,750 euros ($3,800) per vehicle in the five biggest markets, the findings of a major market researcher show.So, right now, it's a recovery that's about as firm as warm brie.3rd Gear: Blame The Buick Encore My favorite crossover/SUV segment is the very small crossover/SUV segment, because they're basically hatchbacks that are a little more versatile. Therefore, as Brent Snavely points out, I should be excited about the future. Advertisement Honda turned the Vezel into the Honda HR-V and Chevy brought the Trax over as well.And of course, we love the Jeep Renegade. Advertisement 4th Gear: Good News For GM A federal judge ruled yesterday that the popular idea of making GM make its customers not drive their Cobalts and Ions ain't going to happen. Why? Advertisement Via The Detroit News:No judge has ever sought to compel an automaker to urge its owners to stop driving. Members of the public would still have been free to continue driving. It's not clear how a request could have been enforced, since millions of owners would have to comply — and under current law are free to ignore recall notices if they choose. "The 'park-it-now' alert conflicts with the existing notices issued in connection with the recall arising from the defective ignition switches. The court is of the opinion that NHTSA is far better equipped than this court to address the broad and complex issues of automotive safety and the regulation of automotive companies in connection with a nationwide recall," Ramos wrote.5th Gear: Bad News For Barra Ain't nobody letting that recall shit go, even at the auto show. Advertisement As the WSJ reported, questions about the recall aren't going away any time soon.Here's Mark Reuss explaining what's going on, in a way that only Mark Reuss can: Advertisement "We have pulled the wagon a long way, and we are not about to give up right now," Mr. Reuss said. "We have to power through this and we will. As far as the integrity team, this is a long time coming, but the market has changed and we have to change."Well said. Advertisement Reverse: At Least One Country For Old Men On this day in 2009, driver Mark Martin wins the Subway Fresh Fit 500 at the Phoenix International Speedway in Avondale, Arizona, and becomes the first 50-year-old to claim victory at a National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) Sprint Cup race since Morgan Shepherd did so at a race in Atlanta in 1993. Besides Martin and Shepherd, only two other drivers age 50 or older have won Sprint Cup events.[HISTORY]Neutral: How does VW sell the Phaeton in America?

Sweet Shop Seating
This is old-time America, fifty miles west of New York City. We call it God's Country. New Jersey is also officially known as The Garden State, too, for good reason, although most folks only see it when passing through the ugly industrial sprawl from Newark Airport to other destinations. There is so much more to New Jersey, my home state, than a corridor of transit on the miserable New Jersey Turnpike.
Most would be surprised to know that New Jersey glories to the most affluent and secluded old wealth of the nation. It's not Silicon Valley, which is new wealth, and not nearly as prestigious. This is Millicent Fenwick territory. There are more than a few first-tier prep schools here. And though I am not personally fond of riding with the hounds, I spent two years living among the hack set with the U.S. Equestrian Headquarters only a half mile away.
Once off the interstate, I've long known there were treasures to frame and record. I've been in these parts since a teenager, but only now, as a photographer, do I embrace the by-gone days that are slowly fading from view. A culture lost is a culture to mourn.
This is my contribution to Black and White Wednesday, hosted this week by the very talented Lynne of Cafe Lynnylu, and presided over by Cinzia of Cindystar.

Very interesting, Susan. I guess I am as guilty as everybody else in not finding NJ particularly appealing, based on the view from the freeway. What you say about NJ reminds me a bit of a comment I have heard often regarding Milan, considered an industrial city and hence not worth a visit. The people I have convinced to change plan have always been grateful for it.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Kenny Coolbeth Jr. (Zanotti Racing/Honda) took home his first AMA Pro Flat Track victory of 2014 to close out Friday night's Grand National at the Daytona Flat Track.
"I've wanted this win for a long time and it feels amazing to finally get it," said Coolbeth. "I've been working hard all winter. I have a great team behind me with the best equipment and I think it's going to be a great season. To tell you the truth, I wish the Springfield Mile was tomorrow."
Coolbeth almost beat the field twice Friday night, as he claimed victory by over four full seconds and lapped multiple riders in the process. Once Coolbeth passed Jake Johnson (Ramspur Winery/Honda) on lap five, he pressed the turbo button and dusted the competition for the remainder of the race.
At the midway point, Coolbeth had opened up over a 2.5 second lead over Johnson and it was clear that it was his night.
Even in defeat, Johnson's second place finish had to be a refreshing rebound for him after his lackluster 10th place performance in the season opener last night.
Stevie Bonsey (Zanotti Racing/Honda) started second on the grid and reverted back a spot as he finished third to round out the night's podium.
Sammy Halbert (Fredericktown Yamaha/Yamaha) put together another impressive performance Friday night with a fourth place finish. The 26-year-old appears to be in great health this season as he is two-for-two in top-five performances to begin 2014.
Brandon Robinson (USC Kawasaki/Kawasaki) undoubtedly had one of the fastest bikes in Friday night's main event. After crashing on lap two and being forced to start from the back of the pack, Robinson maneuvered his way through traffic on his way to a fifth-place finish.
The AMA Pro Singles main event was an 18-lap shootout for the checkered flag and it was Brandon Wilhelm (Wilhelm Racing/Honda), starting from sixth on the grid, who came away with the win in what developed into an absolute thriller.
"I can't believe this is happening right now," said an ecstatic Wilhelm. "It feels so good. The track was a little slick but it wasn't bad. I just had to work the throttle a little bit and it worked in my favor. I've never felt anything like this before, it's truly an amazing feeling."
Wilhelm got the holeshot and was cruising to his first win of the season before two riders went down and forced the red flags to fly. The staggered start meant that Wilhelm's more than a second lead would be diminished and he'd have to really fight if he wanted to earn the victory.
Wilhelm did just that, as he slammed the throttle and earned the first win of his career.
The story of the night was the strength of the underdog. As impressive as Wilhelm's victory was after starting from sixth on the grid, Davis Fisher (TJ Burnett Farms/Honda) knifed his way to an impressive second-place finish after starting in the ninth position. If that isn't intriguing enough, third-place finisher Justin Jones (Jones Racing/Honda) came all the way back from 11th on the grid to round out the podium after passing Ryan Wells (KTM/KTM) on lap 15.
J.R. Addison (Parkinson Bros Racing/Honda) and last night's AMA Pro Singles main event winner and Ryan Wells put together a solid performance to close out the top-five.

As long as space flight has existed, satellites and other space vehicles have carried rechargeable batteries to store electrical energy. While this reality remains constant, the space industry has undergone tremendous change and now demands significant performance improvements from battery systems. Today, spacecraft range in scope from small, cost-effective pico- and microsatellites that orbit Earth in a relatively low orbit to massive geostationary communications satellite systems. Since the primary role of batteries in these craft is to provide power when the Earth's shadow blocks the satellite's exposure to the Sun, the performance demands vary significantly depending on the orbit and power needs of the satellite.
Satellites are employed by three key segments of the space industry. Civil space programs (of which NASA is the world's largest) employ spacecraft to advance space science, pursue exploration and scientific sensing, and improve communications. Military missions pursue such strategic objectives as surveillance, reconnaissance, mapping, weather, and missile defense. Lastly, the commercial sector depends upon satellites to provide communications and allow distribution of television, radio, and other media. All of these sectors have significantly different needs and priorities regarding batteries.
Space exploration includes both manned and un-manned platforms and range from interplanetary surface operations to deep space missions and near earth operations. All of these missions are utilizing batteries with a solar combination or as auxiliary unit in conjunction with an alternative power generating device. This varying environment and generating power sources puts unique demands on the battery system.
As part of EnerSys Advanced Solutions, we can offer lithium-ion satellite battery solutions through our ABSL facilities. For these designs, EnerSys Advanced Solutions will evaluate Quallion lithium-ion cell designs (ranging from cylindrical 18650 to large prismatic form factors) for mission suitability.
Quallion is uniquely positioned to offer battery solutions to the satellite and space exploration market. Our lithium ion technology delivers unsurpassed energy density, a critical factor for any customer seeking a power solution for small spacecraft or needing to shift more of the satellite mass from battery to payload. On a large communications or military satellite, the decision to go with Li-ion could reduce mass by hundreds of pounds and allow more strategic or revenue-producing payload. In addition, Quallion is uniquely positioned to satisfy aerospace and military customers with high reliability requirements thanks to our rigorous materials control, which eliminates even the subtlest variations in future cell builds.
Quallion has achieved significant breakthroughs in Li ion battery technology that now deliver critical performance for space satellite systems:
Late in 2006, Quallion was awarded a Title III program from the U.S. government to domestically produce the cathode and anode materials used in large satellite cells. Quallion set up a large cell manufacturing line in 2013 under the Title III contract. No other space satellite battery manufacturer is able to offer its customers a cradle-to-grave battery solution, in which cell and battery production is controlled in one US based facility. Quallion is able to ensure its customers a fully qualified product for the next 20-30 years.
Quallion can deliver satellite cells and/or batteries with key technological advantages. 1. Quallion can create a battery with its own design and materials, which enables fully customizable solutions for any specifications and takes full advantage of our specialized materials control. This option also enables customers to leverage Quallion's patented Zero-Volt™ technology, which allows long storage periods in a deep discharged state with no permanent capacity loss.

The Right Social Network for You
With hundreds of millions of user accounts, MySpace is the Internet's most recognizable (and reviled) social network. From teenagers to grandmas, seemingly everybody has a page. But Rupert Murdoch's online leviathan may not be the best option for satisfying your Web communication needs. Nimble new startup companies are creating both general-purpose and specialized services--all of them free, just as MySpace is--that could get you a job, find you a date, connect you with friends new and old, and fill your life with beautiful music.
With so many social networks dotting the Web, though, it's hard to know which ones are worth your time and bandwidth. To help clarify things, we examined 17 alternatives to MySpace in five broad categories: general-purpose, special-purpose, taste-based, mobile, and media-sharing social networks. As we discuss our findings, we'll also offer a few tips for maintaining your safety and privacy, finding friends online, and getting the most out of each service.

The Waltz Book is an impressive achievement by any standard. Andrew Ford has composed a set of 60 waltzes to a commission from pianist Ian Munro, and has written and organised them so that they are exciting and make a coherent whole. The music contains oblique and overt references to other piano music, and parts are inspired by Finnish folk music and children's stories. Many of the individual waltzes are dedicated to Andrew Ford's friends and their children, celebrating their birthdays and other significant events.
The Waltz Book has already been performed by more than a dozen different pianists and played around Australia, Canada, Finland, Poland, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Because this is such an unusual project, an interview with Andrew Ford, offering insight into the music, is included on a special bonus data disc than can be played in all computers. A selection of 10 works are also given as PDFs on the data disc so that they can be printed out and played.

Objective. To investigate relationships between rates of antimicrobial consumption and the incidence of antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from hospitals. Methods. We conducted an observational study that used retrospective data from 2002 and linear regression to model relationships. Hospitals were asked to collect data on consecutive S. aureus and P. aeruginosa isolates, consumption rates for antibiotics (ie, anti‐infectives for systemic use as defined by Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical class J01), and hospital characteristics, including infection control policies. Rates of methicillin resistance in S. aureus and rates of ceftazidime and ciprofloxacin resistance in P. aeruginosa were expressed as the percentage of isolates that were nonsusceptible (ie, either resistant or intermediately susceptible) and as the incidence of nonsuceptible isolates (ie, the number of nonsuceptible isolates recovered per 1,000 patient‐days). The rate of antimicrobial consumption was expressed as the number of defined daily doses per 1,000 patient‐days. Setting. Data were obtained from 47 French hospitals, and a total of 12,188 S. aureus isolates and 6,370 P. aeruginosa isolates were tested. Results. In the multivariate analysis, fewer antimicrobials showed a significant association between the consumption rate and the percentage of isolates that were resistant than an association between the consumption rate and the incidence of resistance. The overall rate of antibiotic consumption, not including the antibiotics used to treat methicillin‐resistant S. aureus infection, explained 13% of the variance between hospitals in the incidence of methicillin resistance among S. aureus isolates. The incidence of methicillin resistance in S. aureus isolates increased with the use of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin and with the percentage of the hospital's beds located in intensive care units (adjusted multivariate coefficient of determination [aR2], 0.30). For P. aeruginosa, the incidence of ceftazidime resistance was greater in hospitals with higher consumption rates for ceftazidime, levofloxacin, and gentamicin (aR2, 0.37). The incidence of ciprofloxacin resistance increased with the use of fluoroquinolones and with the percentage of a hospital's beds located in intensive care ( aR2, 0.28). Conclusions. A statistically significant relationship existed between the rate of fluoroquinolone use and the rate of antimicrobial resistance among S. aureus and P. aeruginosa isolates. The incidence of resistant isolates showed a stronger association with the rate of antimicrobial use than did the percentage of isolates with resistance.

OXFORD – Zach Scruggs' appeal of his 2008 conviction and sentence was rejected today by a three-judge panel of the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals.
In doing so, they affirmed decisions by Senior U.S. District Judge Neal B. Biggers Jr. since Scruggs and others were accused in late 2007 in a shocking judicial bribery case.
Scruggs, 37, of Oxford who lost his law license and went to prison, insisted he knew nothing about a bribe and did not commit any felony because a 2010 U.S. Supreme Court decision narrowed the law about kickbacks and bribes.

I have veganized a cookout meal for you that is easy and super delicious. Vegan pasta salad, coleslaw, and even learn how to make your own veggie bean burger! Enjoy your veg-friendly cookout!
Pea Lover's Pasta Salad
8oz shell pasta, (like Eden Organic vegetable shells - they worked great!)
2 lbs frozen peas, thawed
¼ cup onions, chopped
¼ cup Daiya mozzarella shreds
¾ cup vegan mayo, (like Vegenaise)
1 tsp mustard
¼ tsp chilli powder
Sea salt & pepper to taste
1 tsp Bragg's Liquid Aminos/ soy sauce/ shoyu/ or tamari (optional)
Boil pasta. Drain and rinse w/ cool water. Mix everything together in a large bowl. Chill for 3- 4 hours in refrigerator before serving. Enjoy!
DV's Creamy Old Fashioned Coleslaw
1 14oz bag of prepared coleslaw (shredded green cabbage and carrots)
1/2 cup almond milk
3 tbsp vegan butter, melted
½ cup vegan mayo, (like Vegenaise)
1 tbsp rice vinegar
½ tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tbsp sugar
Place coleslaw mix in large bowl or container (container with lid is easier for shaking/ mixing afterwards). Wisk the last 7 ingredients until mixed completely. That is your dressing. Add to coleslaw and combine well. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
Dirty Bean and Brown Rice Vegan Burger
1 15.5oz can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
¼ cup onions, chopped
1 tsp garlic
¼ cup sliced almonds
½ cup cooked brown rice, mashed
½ tsp ground cumin
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp Braggs
¼ cup & 2 tbsp panko bread crumbs
Mash beans. Place onions, garlic, almonds in food processor. Add to mashed beans. Mash cooked brown rice and add to mixture. Season with seasonings and mix in breadcrumbs. Divide and form into 5 regular sized patties (or 10 minis). You can form and press patties between parchment paper until ready to use (i.e. if you make this early in the day, to prepare for dinner). *Dirty Vegan Tip: I used If You Care silicone coated parchment baking paper to form my patties in, and keep in fridge until I was ready to use them. I like If You Care because they are compostable and biodegradable, chlorine free and unbleached, the silicone is naturally derived from rocks and sand, and their packaging is recycled and recyclable. You can find this parchment paper in Whole Foods down the baking isle.* Grill patties for about 5 minutes or so on each side (depending on how you prefer them to be cooked), flipping several times. Alternatively, you can bake, saute, pan fry, or steam these. Serve in a bun or between two pieces of toasty bread, with your favorite condiments. Enjoy!

For years, business leaders and commentators have observed that the regulatory requirements to be met to finance companies in the United States have become overly burdensome and discourage entrepreneurship. These observations tended to fall on deaf Congressional ears that were more attuned to hearing lurid details of corporate misdeeds, stock option backdating and insider trading.
What a difference four years and severe disruption in the financial markets seems to be making. Congress is now listening and there are at least two significant legislative proposals that would ease the regulatory burden on smaller companies.
One measure would change Regulation A under the Securities Act to permit companies to conduct offerings to raise up to $50 million through a mini-registration process. Regulation A has not been used much in recent years because of the low threshold ($5 million) but many smaller companies would find Reg A offerings a helpful capital-raising alternative.

Part 1: Orange County's greatest athlete
To celebrate its 100th anniversary, the CIF Southern Section this year established a list of the top 100 athletes of all time, a prestigious collection that includes three former Newport Harbor High athletic stars – Misty May-Treanor, Aaron Peirsol and George Yardley.
While May-Treanor (women's beach volleyball) and Peirsol (men's swimming) are multiple Olympic gold medalists in their sport, the late Yardley comes from a different era and stands alone as perhaps the greatest athlete ever in Orange County. Yardley might qualify for such lofty recognition based solely on his basketball career – he's a member of the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame – but the subjective statement of "greatest athlete ever" is easier if you consider the variety and level of sports in which he competed throughout his life.
In addition to basketball, Yardley was a collegiate and Amateur Athletic Union All-American in volleyball, as well as a five-time national age-group champion in tennis. He also achieved low-handicap status on the golf course.
"Research shows that George Yardley is the greatest and most respected Orange County athlete in history," said longtime Newport Harbor High supporter Brian Theriot, also a former Newport football tailback and track and field star.
The gymnasium floor at Newport Harbor is named after Yardley. The annual Orange County Athlete of the Year Award used to be called the George Yardley Award. His grandson, Kyle Caldwell, won the honor in 2012 as a basketball and volleyball standout at Newport Harbor. Even though it has been almost nine years since George Yardley died of ALS, he continues to reap Hall of Fame credentials.
Earlier this month, his daughter, Anne, who lives in the Back Bay-front Dover Shores home her father built in 1967, picked up another award when he was named posthumously to the Adoption Guild Hall of Fame for his years of volunteer service. The 52nd Annual Roy Emerson Adoption Guild Tennis Classic, hosted by Newport Beach Tennis Club, began Memorial Day weekend and continues through June 2. As an amateur tennis player, George Yardley won several age-group championships in the Adoption Guild event.
"I've never heard anyone say anything negative about him, even when he'd been nasty," Anne Yardley Caldwell said during a tour of the newspaper and magazine articles that line a hallway in the house.
In trying to list all of her father's "Hall of Fame" honors, Anne started with the Basketball Hall of Fame, then continued with the Orange County Sports Hall of Fame, Stanford Hall of Fame, Bay Area Hall of Fame, Michigan Hall of Fame, Newport Harbor High Hall of Fame, Southern California Tennis Association Hall of Fame, Pac-10 Hall of Fame, and the Helms Athletic Foundation Hall of Fame, in addition to several other awards, including the Indiana Red Coat Award, which goes to the Man of the Year.
"We all remember that one," Anne said of the trip to Fort Wayne, Ind., to receive the Red Coat Award, replacing a Hawaiian family vacation.
Yardley, a six-time NBA All-Star, is perhaps most famous for being the first player in NBA history to score 2,000 points in a single season, when he accomplished the feat for the Detroit Pistons in the 1957-58 season, the first year the Pistons played in Detroit. But Yardley had his engineering degree from Stanford and retired early from basketball to make more money. In the early 1960s, that's how life was for professional athletes.
During the five off-season months of the NBA in the '50s, Yardley was helping the United States in the Cold War and Space War against the Soviet Union. His classified work included the development of intercontinental ballistic missiles Atlas and Titan, and the interior valves and regulators, and helium pressure-control devices, for the X-15, a rocket-powered research aircraft designed to explore the fringes of outer space. Once, during an NBA off-season, Yardley invented a liquid-oxygen seal that helped make the Titan operative.
A great success in the engineering business, Yardley was perhaps the NBA's most unhappy star, because it was holding him back from making bigger paychecks to support his family, and the time away from his family was horrendous. After seven years in the NBA, and another with the Los Angeles Jets in the old National Basketball League (NBL) under then-coach Bill Sharman, Yardley hung up his sneakers. "I was the highest paid player in the (NBL), but the bad news is that the checks never cleared," Yardley once quipped.
In his prime engineering years, while raising four children with his late wife, Diana, Yardley built an empire, yet never retired from his work. "What would I ever do if I retired?" he once said.
Warm and friendly with a never-ending sense of humor, Yardley was flamboyant in numerous ways, including never being afraid to wear an orange or pink jacket. He made jokes and laughed a lot. He was always fun to be around. He could paint, play the piano and build a house from the ground up.
He might also be the greatest athlete ever in Orange County.
