It's no secret that UK models are some of the most beautiful in the world. They have style, grace, and the sharp wit that we come to love from Britain and beyond. Designers and marketers all around the world are calling up these fair dames and sirs every day to wear the latest fashions. So it's no wonder that many people out there are looking for the best UK models review . Of course, they need look no further than http://ukmodelsreviews.com/ .
Where can you find the best reviews of UK models online? We've got you covered, whether you want your models to be or not.
Fashion Blogs
Although many of the blog owners and writers may not be "professional" in the strictest sense, they do indeed make a good living writing about the latest trends and what's going on in the fashion industry. Many of them also offer reviews of UK models, both for the enjoyment of their readers and to offer some insight to those in the industry shopping around for models to use. https://www.facebook.com/UKModels is definitely a good site to look at for this.
This is where you can get some good insight. Even better if the writer is a huge hobbyist in the industry but still has the voice of "the people." When you're looking around for models to hire, you want someone that people like but who will also look great in your clothes. A little attitude doesn't hurt either.
Fashion Spreads
Not only do fashion spreads give you an idea of the model's work, but you can also see what other industry experts are saying about so-and-so. Maybe she's hot but shows up late to every showing. Maybe she doesn't have the best smile but can walk like a pro. Depending on what you need for your show, this can be valuable information.
While it's true that the UK has one of the best fashion industries in the world, there is no denying that finding reviews of models can be tricky. We hope our two suggestions worked for you. Good luck! There are many fine people to choose from.

Rather than continue my cycle of a new entry at the end of the week, I am combining two weeks, Weeks 8 and 9 of the third cycle of the Genealogy Do-Over. Let's think of this as a blog do-over.
Four Topics for Weeks 8 and 9
Conducting Collateral Research
Collateral research is research not on direct ancestors but rather their siblings and their descendants. This can be a very useful way of finding relevant information.
I need to come up with a research plan for these collateral lines.
Reviewing Offline Education Options
I usually review the offerings of conferences in either my vicinity or from specialty organizations such as Polish Genealogical Society of America (PGSA).
For now, that is all that intend to do with offline education.
Conducting Cluster Research
I have been using this approach with my mother's maternal line, the Kowals.
The idea is that we can learn a lot about people by looking at their neighbors, friends, business associates, etc.
This can be helpful because immigration and migration often happened not just in families but in groups of people - someone knows someone who went first and brings others along.
The area where my maternal grandmother was born had many immigrants who came from the same area in south-east Poland. There is a website that describes the immigrants from that region. From that website I found that there was a village, Smerek, that had both Kowals and Hoszowskis.
As a result, I have focused my research in Poland for them in and around the village of Smerek.
Organizing Research Materials – Documents and Photos
This is where I am stuck right now, and it is a top priority. My materials are a mess.
There are two steps to this.
First, the documents need to be replaced in their folders and the folders filed.
Second, I have all of the photos as electronic files, which need to be put in folders and properly organized in the cloud.

Chapter 9 We Fight a Battle Summary
One day, when the Tripod is out of sight, Henry and Beanpole search for food while Will relaxes for a moment. Will puts his hands behind his head and reclines on the grass while gazing at the sky. Will's shirt is torn open and tattered from the long voyage. When Henry and Beanpole return, they notice a strange object under Will's arm. They can only see the object because of a hole in Will's shirt and the way he is reclining on the ground. Once they point it out, Will becomes very aware of the object. It is a small button of the same metallic mesh material from which Caps are made, and it is fused into Will's skin near his armpit.
Will realizes it was placed there when he was taken into the Tripod...

The ontological Argument
What is the ontological argument for the existence of God?
Depends whom you ask.
Let's begin with the name of this argument.
What does "ontological" mean?
Here we go with the ancient Greek again.
"Ontos" is the present participle, in noun form, of the Greek verb for "to be."
So, its meaning is "being", or, "the thing that is being."
"Logos," as you know by now, means "true account of," or "story about."
If we put the two words together we get "The true account of being," or the "true account of what is."
With reference to the question of the existence of God, the term has a very technical meaning. When we talk about the "Ontological Argument" for the existence of God, we are talking about an argument that attempts to prove that God exists by analyzing the idea we have of Him.
How does this work?
Here is the nub of the idea.
When I think about God, I am thinking about the perfect being, or, more technically expressed, that being than whom no greater being can be conceived, or thought.
OK. This is probably not what you think of when you think of God. But in a technical, logical sense, this is what the concept, "God," means – the being than whom no greater being can be thought.
Let's examine this a little more closely.
If I think of God ad the perfect being, this means that in my idea, the idea of God, I just also be thinking of all the things needed to make any being perfect.
One of the key things that a perfect being has to possess to be perfect is real existence. If I think of a perfect being, God, and then think that He is just a great idea, but that He has no greater existence, the people who advance the ontological argument will accuse me of contradicting myself.
Well, if I claim to be thinking of the perfect being and then claim that thinking of this being does not include the idea that He really exists, it looks as if I am denying the perfect being one of the attributes that would make Him perfect – namely, real existence.
The idea here is that I cannot even think of the perfect being without thinking that he has to exist in reality because otherwise I would be saying that I am thinking of the perfect being but I would be denying Him one of the essential features of his perfection, namely his real existence.
Therefore, if I can think of a perfect being I have to be able to think that He really exists.
There is one further step here about which we have to be perfectly clear.
This argument only has a chance of making sense if we add the idea that if we can think of a perfect being, when we ourselves are clearly not perfect, then the idea of such a being had to have been implanted in our minds by – you guessed it – a real perfect being.
Thus the real argument is tnat if an imperfect creature can think of a perfect ond, then there must be a perfect being who implants the idea of Himself in our minds. Thus the very fact that we can think og Him means that he must really exist.
Thus, the very act of thinking about how God is, about His act of being, requires that we admit that such a being really exists.

Anti-Marxist Angola rebels say they bombed pipeline
Guerrillas opposed to the Marxist government of Angola have claimed responsibility for killing 22 people in a bomb attack on an American-owned pipeline guarded by Cuban troops.
In a communique issued Sunday in Lisbon, the National Union for the Total Liberation of Angola, or UNITA, said the blast occurred last Thursday in the northern, oil-rich Cabinda Province, damaging a Gulf Oil Corporation pipeline.
The bombing marked the first attack against an American target in Angola. Observers here said the bombing signaled an escalation of the nine-year-old rebel war.

Jennifer Palase is just carrying on a family tradition.
The Tottenville junior catcher committed last week to play softball at the University of New Haven, where she will receive a financial package with athletic and academic money that covers almost the entire tuition.
Palase's older sister Nicole, a Tottenville senior, is heading to St. Joseph's University next year and her brother Richard competes at Lynchburg after transferring from Division I Longwood. Their father Richard Sr. and mother Donna played baseball and softball, respectively, at Long Island University.
"I guess I'm following in their footsteps," Palase said with a laugh.
While Nicole is known for her incredible athletic ability and power at the plate and in her right arm, the younger Palase has carved out her own niche for the Pirates.
Last year, she was instrumental in Tottenville's run to the PSAL Class A city title game, upping her batting average from .364 in the regular season to .462 in the playoffs, where she had five runs and four RBIs in five games. The biggest hit of her career might have been a double off Madison ace Kayla Hill in the final. With her team down 2-1 and down to its final out in the seventh inning, Palase ripped a line drive into the leftfield corner and later scored the tying run in an eventual loss on a Knights error.
Her role has changed a bit this year. Instead of being in the bottom half of the lineup, the speedy, 5-foot-3 Palase is atop coach Cathy Morano's order and using the slapping skills she developed while playing travel ball with the Jaxx to get on base almost at will – she's hitting an absurd .500 this season with 15 runs scored in seven league games.
"Normally catchers are bigger and slower," Morano said. "Jen's got the speed and it's nice to have that luxury where she can go from either side of the plate."
Palase, who has a 3.7 GPA, chose New Haven over C.W. Post and Rider. It was almost love at first sight, she says, when she visited the Connecticut campus.
"I just felt comfortable there," she said. "I felt like it was the place for me. The atmosphere was very bright."
Though Palase is one of the top defensive catchers in the city, she will play outfield for the Chargers because of her speed and athleticism. She said she'll miss being behind the plate, though. Her acumen there has drawn praise from opposing coaches, including Susan Wagner's Marco Altieri. He was especially impressed by her willingness to learn while attending the PSAL Big Apple Games, where few travel players go in the summer.
"She's such a great catcher, a great kid," Altieri said. "I really like that kid a lot. She's a special kid. Really good leadoff hitter, too."
Her teammates agree. Tottenville's Albany-bound center fielder Victoria McFarland says she almost expects Palase to be on base when she gets up.
"For Jen to slap, she always gets on," McFarland said. "It's great. We know that she'll be on to lead off."

Belleville, New Jersey (PRWEB) August 13, 2014
More companies are turning to energy advisors in today's unpredictable energy market to negotiate attractive and stable long-term electric and gas contracts. However, problems arise, industry expert Nick Papamichael of Green Crown Energy warned, when businesses hire the wrong or ill-prepared energy advisors and wind up with less-than-favorable contracts even before the ink has dried.
According to Papamicheal, a sought-after speaker on the topic of electric and gas energy procurement contracts, there are three major mistakes that some companies, and the so-called energy consultants they employ, make that can doom an energy procurement contract.
The first, he said, is purchasing energy at the wrong time of the year. "It would seem fundamental that an energy advisor would know when to buy energy or stay on the sidelines, but we find that's often not the case," Papamichael says. "There are very specific times of the year when electrical and natural prices retreat and times when they spike. At Green Crown Energy, our energy advisors take full advantage of any historical dips in the market on behalf of our clients and purchase the commodity at the most advantagious time of year."
"The second mistake that too many businesses make when it comes to energy procurement contracts is not negotiating the terms and conditions, including bandwidth, termination, and ancillary costs," Papamichael asserted. "While energy advisors are not attorneys, the good ones have seen enough energy contracts to make suggestions and identify any possible pitfalls," he explained. "At Green Crown Energy, we have successfully negotiated terms and conditions with the ESCOs (energy services companies) on numerous occasions that would have gone unnoticed by our clients. That is why making sure you've hired the right energy advisor is the first step in keeping electric and gas outlays down."
The third mistake, Papamichael pointed out, is not properly identifying and selecting the right energy product, which can result in huge losses. "Every client has different needs," he said. "There are a myriad of hybrid products available today — far too many to expect a client to be well-versed in. Again, that's why it's vital to choose the right energy advisory company in the first place. At Green Crown Energy, we are experts at matching up the right product for each of our clients."
"The bottom line is that the energy procurement contract a company signed a few years ago may be a woefully bad deal today," Papamichael said. "I always recommend that a company do a careful background check on any energy consulting company it authorizes to negotiate gas and electric contracts," he noted. "For example, ask if they are licensed and whether they're active in the energy industry. What type of experts does it have on staff? Are they invited to speak and participate in panel discussions at industry events and trade shows? And most importantly, ask them."
Papamichael suggested that "by asking a few questions of their energy advisors, a company can avoid these three common mistakes and secure electric and gas contracts that not only lock in the lowest possible rates for years, but allow a company to more accurately forecast its energy outlay."

XOMA Ltd. (NASDAQ: XOMA) is a biopharmaceutical company focused on the discovery, development and manufacture of therapeutic antibodies and other agents designed to treat inflammatory, autoimmune, infectious and oncological diseases. XOMA is a growing company involved in a variety of R&D projects with diverse partners. Its pipeline is comprised of various therapeutic antibodies among which two are in phase 1 of clinical trials for treatment of type 2 diabetes rheumatoid arthritis and botulism poisoning. XOMA is developing those products in partnership with major drugmakers such as Pfizer (PFE) and Novartis AG and has been awarded hundreds of million of dollars of federal grants for one of its projects. Most of this research is fully funded by partners.
XOMA currently has three marketed products with partnering companies and three research technologies that are licensed to over 50 major pharmaceutical companies. Since its establishment in 1994, it has had highly variable revenues. However XOMA has been marginally profitable only a few times in its history.
In 2009 the FDA expressed its concerns about the safety of XOMA's Raptiva product which resulted in a drop in sales and XOMA's royalties triggering the early repayment of a $50-million loan to Goldman Sachs and forcing XOMA to reduce its operating costs by firing 42% of its workforce, lowering it to around 200 employees.
As a biotech company, XOMA has drawn its revenues from irregular sources. Indeed royalties on marketed products only represent a portion of its revenues while other revenues come from license agreements and fees and other research contracts. This unusual pattern creates much uncertainty in XOMA's revenues since most research contracts are based on research progress.
2009 and 2010 are financially challenging years for XOMA with patents' expiration in Europe and the likely withdrawal of regulatory approval for Raptiva.
First Quarter 2010 Results[1]
XOMA reported total revenues of $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2010, compared with $39.7 million in the first quarter of 2009. The decrease in revenues was primarily due to a $27.5 million fee recognized in the first quarter of 2009 related to the company's expanded collaboration with Takeda Pharmaceutical Company Limited. In addition, royalty revenue decreased by $4.4 million in the first quarter of 2010 compared with the first quarter of 2009 primarily due to the sale of XOMA's royalty interest in LUCENTIS(R) in the third quarter of 2009 and the withdrawal of RAPTIVA(R) from the market earlier in 2009. XOMA had a net loss of $21.8 million, or $0.09 per share, in the 2010 first quarter compared with net income of $6.2 million, or $0.04 per share, in the first quarter of 2009.
At March 31, 2010, XOMA had cash and cash equivalents of $28.4 million, compared with $23.9 million at December 31, 2009. In January and February 2010, XOMA received approximately $21.0 million in proceeds from financing transactions, after underwriting discounts, expenses and an amendment fee to certain existing warrant holders.
XOMA earns its revenues from three main sources. Each of them is based on a different business model.
XOMA earns royalties on three marketed products which are all licensed to other companies for marketing matters. The company has three drugs on the market:
Trough its researches, XOMA has developed multiple technologies that can reuse for further researches and drug production. XOMA licenses these technologies to a great number of international companies and earns royalties, fees and milestone payments. These technologies are all proprietary technologies of XOMA and XOMA uses them as a platform to start or deepen existing researches and to develop new partnerships with drug manufacturers. They include:
XOMA has evolved into a sort of R&D outsourcing company which offers a wide range of technologies and antibodies researches. In some way XOMA can appear like a R&D contractor. Thus it has signed a few R&D partnerships that earns XOMA fees, milestone payments and R&D supports. These partnerships include:
As with any pharmaceutical company, XOMA is exposed to the risk of its R&D not being fully satisfying. However XOMA is clearly on a high-growth market with very innovative technologies and a lot of room for new discoveries. Antibodies research represents a new field and the demand from large drug makers is huge. XOMA's revenues are highly dependent on R&D outcomes and progress since most fees and milestone payments are contractually bounded to tangible R&D results.
In 2009 due to financial constraints XOMA halted the majority of its internal projects to essentially focus on its XOMA 052 products. This antibody has already been used for numerous conditions. XOMA's researches have focused on diabetes and cardio-vascular conditions. This product has already gone through Phase I of clinical trials and XOMA is moving it to Phase II while seeking a partner for this program. XOMA 052 has a potential market of $12 billion by 2020 in the US. [4]
However XOMA's pipeline contains very few products in late stage of development which raises concerns about the company's ability to put final products on the market. Its main sources of revenue in the short term are its technologies and R&D potentialities that can be licensed out to outside companies.
To fully exploit its discoveries and technologies XOMA has made the choice to partner with various companies. XOMA is involved in R&D contracts with Genentech, Novartis, Schering-Plough, Takeda and US federal agencies. Furthermore it has licensed its technologies to over 50 companies. Moreover XOMA has no marketed product on its own. Thus it is highly dependent on partners for its revenues.
While this strategy maximizes the use of discoveries and allows XOMA to diversify its activities away from its internal projects, it also represents a constant challenge to work with other companies but also to find new partners to develop new projects and replace ending ones. XOMA has managed to gain great benefits from its partnerships with as an example the $13 million loan obtained from Novartis. But this strategy leads to great uncertainty about the timing of incomes as well as the very source of those incomes.
In 2009 XOMA has been confronted with multiple expirations of its patents. While patents' expiration is a threat for every healthcare company (see Eli Lilly), it is even more accurate in the case of small growing biotech companies whose revenues are dependent on very few products. In 2009, one of XOMA's was withdrawn from the market and one lost its regulatory protection leaving XOMA with only one marketed product. XOMA makes about 30% (see graph above) of its revenues from royalties on marketed products but it still represents a major drawback for the company. Moreover patents on its BCE technology also expired in Europe. XOMA will need to quickly develop new products and that's part of the reason why in 2009 it decided to shift resources away from various projects and to divert them only to its XOMA 052 project.
Being a biotech XOMA has always devoted large resources to its R&D. Research is truly the heart of the biotech business and biotech companies are constantly forced to heavily invest in R&D projects before they can benefit from those investments. Given the volatility of XOMA's revenues, keeping up with R&D expenses seems to be a real challenge. Up till today XOMA has managed to fully fund a large share of its R&D. Yet the company has never been sustainably profitable and won't be profitable in the near future which has forced the executives to take action and drastically reduce its workforce by 42% in 2009. It also cut its internal R&D programs to focus on a single project. XOMA seems to have found adequate funding for the next couple of months.
Given XOMA's specific strategy, identifying competitors might seem a bit chancy. In fact many of XOMA's partners can turn to be competitors in other markets, in the past or in the future. Besides XOMA doesn't target any specific final market but it's rather focused on the initial raw material which are antibodies. Thus depending on the contracts and partnerships it signs, XOMA could enter various specific drug markets. Plus XOMA has developed all of its products under partnership agreements and plans to keep on doing so. Therefore it is not facing competition on its own but with the help of other bigger pharmaceutical companies. Competitors include:

Attracted by a delightful fusion of early music sonorities with modern expressiveness, the three composers in this amazingly rich and varied programme build on the magnificent harpsichord concerto legacy of JS Bach. John Rutter's beautiful Suite Antique is full of rich and haunting themes, with a significant solo flute part and a jazzy Waltz which is as much Brubeck as Bach. Philip Glass delivers an exciting experience of virtuoso instrumental blending and solo expressiveness, and with typical wit and elegance. Jean Françaix's Concerto is terrific fun throughout.

There are 30 Republican national convention delegates up for grabs in today's primary. But today's vote is about more than just delegates.
It's also about momentum going into the next round of primaries. There are relatively few delegates at stake in the Michigan and Arizona primaries. But those two elections set the stage for Super Tuesday. Ten states will vote. 419 delegates are at stake. That's a third of what any candidate needs to win the nomination.
This is Michigan State University political science professor Matt Grossman.
"So, there's a lot of potential for momentum from Michigan to matter in other states," he says.
Grossman says if there's a big winner on Super Tuesday, that candidate could credibly claim front runner status as the Republican most likely to face President Obama on the November ballot.

In lieu of a blog, I want to shine a light on a very cool opportunity that comes around every summer here in Anza-Borrego- the Sheep Count. This year marks the 45th year of the count, and I know I for one am very excited to do my part. I will once again be joining the ranks of many dedicated volunteers, from the few rookies we hope to get and retain each year to the old folk that have been in on the adventure since the beginning.
So now it's time. Time to make a big decision to devote your 4th of July holiday not to barbecuing delicious morsels for friends and family, but to the protection of our famous desert ungulates, the Peninsular Bighorn Sheep. Still not sure? Take a look at a post about my first sheep count, and a recap of just one of Phil and Callie's many sheep count adventures.
See the Call for Counters below from Ranger Steve and his sidekick Mark. We hope to see you at the mandatory orientation on June 20!
-Ashley Kvitek, ABF Education Coordinator
We hope you're able to volunteer for the 45th Annual Bighorn Sheep Count at Anza-Borrego ! We need your help to make this bighorn census a success!
The 4th of July holiday falls on Saturday this year. We will be dispersing to count sites on Thursday afternoon, July 2nd , and conducting the count on Friday, July 3rd, Saturday July 4th, and Sunday, July 5th. On Thursday we will meet at the Palm Canyon Maintenance Shop between 1-3PM for dispersal. We'll be back there by 3PM on Sunday to compile count data and get you headed home.
The orientation, mandatory for all first-time counters and highly recommended for veterans, will be conducted at the Visitor Center on Saturday, June 20th from 9AM-1PM. We encourage all sheep counters to try to attend this orientation. We know most of you have counted sheep for years, but we can all use a tune-up!! The orientation will cover bighorn natural history, census methods, desert safety, and preliminary site assignments. We'll look at PowerPoint, skulls, and handouts.
We hope you can assist us with the annual sheep count. Thank you for your interest and dedication. Sheep population numbers continue upwards, with the most recent estimate in the Park at about 500 and totals for the entire Peninsular Ranges at over 900 sheep.
Please use the RSVP form to let us know you'll be able to help us this year. As always, we need willing backpackers, and we need four-wheel-drive vehicles to help get volunteers into their count sites. Hope to hear from you soon.

I recall seeing a study a while back on, if memory serves, Ironman competitors. They found examples of top athletes that used each of those "tune-out and distract" and "tune-in and reframe" techniques, with a slight bias in toward tuning-in amongst the top competitors. But it sounds like either can work, depending on one's personal inclinations.

Quick Reference
German theologian. He came under humanist influences. Until the controversy over indulgences broke out, he was on good terms with M. Luther, but in the public debate at Leipzig in 1519 he opposed Carlstadt and Luther, and he was largely responsible for securing the latter's excommunication. For the rest of his life he took a prominent part in organizing Catholic opposition to German Protestantism.

May 21, 2013 in Celebrity Plastic Surgery by Dana Jackson | Leave a Comment
Best known for role on British television's Coronation Street, Helen Flanagan was recently voted the Sexiest Woman in the UK, thanks to plastic surgery, of course.
22-year old Helen Flanagan looks quite worldly for her age, thanks to an ample boost in the bust department, most likely courtesy of plastic surgery.
Helen's bust is quite remarkable and is almost certainly the result of breast implants, although at her age they could still be high and firm naturally. Breast implants that size usually have an obvious ridge, which is not always apparent for Helen.
So far breast implants look to be the only plastic surgery the young actress has had. However she may use teeth whitening products to give her smile an extra sparkle.
Whatever she is doing, Helen looks great and it is easy to see why she would make the world list of sexy women.

PowerTeacher is a web-based grade-book application that, manufacturer Pearon claims, allows teachers the functionality of installed software grade books without needing any such installation. It also allows the use of the grade book from any compatible computer with an Internet connection.
Pearson claims that PowerTeacher has a clean design that separates it from other grade-book programs. The program also offers many assignment and grading options, including assignment categories, a score inspector for grading large numbers of assignments, and nine separate types of teacher reports. PowerTeacher allows organization by assignment, class or individual student. It even includes a spell checker.
PowerTeacher provides a wide range of other features useful to teachers, including seating charts, attendance, scheduling and notifications. Seating charts allow more efficient attendance taking and include a student photo feature to help remember names. The attendance feature allows teachers to view multiple days of attendance for both individual students or the whole class. Teacher notifications include student birthdays, as well as new and dropped students.
Pearson also offers a mobile app version of PowerTeacher, allowing grade book use on iPads in locations where a desktop or laptop computer is not convenient. PowerTeacher seamlessly integrates with the PowerSchool line of Pearson products, which claim to provide full school solutions for teachers, students and parents. Pearson also offers mobile app versions of PowerSchool products.

The Microinverter and DC Optimizer Landscape 2014: The Evolution From Market Niche to Market Success
Microinverters and DC optimizers (collectively known as module-level power electronics, or MLPE) comprise one of the newest and fastest-growing sectors in the solar industry. The product segment surpassed 1 GW of annual volume and over 2 GW of cumulative installed capacity in 2013, just four years after the first contemporary products entered the market. While initially considered a niche solution for residential or shaded rooftops, the category has consistently expanded its appeal, to the point where nearly half of the MLPE category's volume is in the commercial-scale market, particularly for DC optimizers. The module-level electronics providers have done this by evolving their value proposition while simultaneously reducing product costs.
Thus far, the landscape has been dominated by a few players -- Enphase Energy and SolarEdge Technologies, with Tigo Energy a distant third – accounting for 88% of capacity shipped in 2013. Yet, new players are joining every day, many with significant venture or private backing. At the end of 2013, the distributed optimization market had been fueled by over $600 million of venture and public capital - not including internal corporate development - even though it still accounts for just 2.5% of the overall PV market. While the growth of the space has surpassed expectations, it remains one of the most hotly contested sectors in solar: skeptics still dismiss the overall value of the products, while the bulk of industry discussion has turned to where, and how much, the sector will evolve.
FIGURE: Module-Level Power Electronics Taxonomy

At over 130 pages, this new report describes the MLPE market's transition into its second chapter. In it, incumbent companies are initiating growth strategies as a new group of well-funded competitors enter the space. The report analyzes the value proposition and cost-benefits of module-level power electronics, provides a competitive landscape of the market, and forecasts growth globally and by region.
Companies profiled in the report include:
Ampt | APS | Draker / Solar Power Technologies | Empower Micro | Enphase Energy | Enecsys | I-Energy | LG Electronics | Petra Solar | Power-One | ReneSola | SMA | SolarBridge | SolarEdge | Sparq Systems | Tigo Energy | Volterra Semiconductors / Maxim Integrated

The Gimme Generation
It seems that the federal government is getting into the "business" of bailing people out of their troubles. First there were Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae, then AIG, then the banking industry $700 billion (which may not be "enough"!). Then the state of California asked for $7 billion to pay for its profligacy. And now it seems the commonwealth of Massachusetts wants its turn at the federal trough.
I guess those initial outlays were like blood in the water. Now everyone wants a bailout.
How bad is the economy? Is it really necessary for the government to step in to "save the day"?
These are complicated questions. There's a lot of psychology involved in economics, and people's expectations are sometimes unreasonable. I suspect that the more answerable question is how we got into this mess in the first place.
The big problem is that the generation in charge, the Boomers, was raised with the expectation that everything would be provided for them.1 In other words, they were raised to be irresponsible. And indeed, of the two Boomer Presidents this country has had (Clinton and Bush II), both have been disasters.2 True to their heritage, the people now in charge of our country (not just the President or the government) have bequeathed to their children an enormous government debt and a profoundly troubled economy.
As the Onion once put it,
"The selfishness that has been a hallmark of the Boomers will continue right up to the very end, as they force millions of younger Americans to devote an inordinate amount of time and resources to their care, bankrupting the Social Security system in the process," Clausewitz said. "In their old age, the Boomers will actually manage to take as much from the next generation as they did the previous one, which fought WWII so that their Boomer children could have Philco TVs and Davy Crockett air rifles."
This means it is up to younger generations to shoulder the additional burden that their selfish forebears have sloughed. The temptation is to envy the material prosperity the Boomers have enjoyed at the expense of others. The Psalmist had a similar experience and began to envy the worldly success of the unjust people of his day:
But as for me, my feet had almost stumbled,
my steps had well nigh slipped.
For I was envious of the arrogant,
when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
For they have no pangs;
their bodies are sound and sleek.
They are not in trouble as other men are;
they are not stricken like other men.
Therefore pride is their necklace;
violence covers them as a garment.3
Their eyes swell out with fatness,
their hearts overflow with follies.
They scoff and speak with malice;
loftily they threaten oppression.
They set their mouths against the heavens,
and their tongue struts through the earth.
Therefore the people turn and praise them;
and find no fault in them.
And they say, "How can God know?
Is there knowledge in the Most High?"
Behold, these are the wicked;
always at ease, they increase in riches. (Ps 73:2-12)
The temptation is to view the worldly success of others and one's lack of success with a sense of frustration, as if this failure were some sort of penalty for keeping virtue:
All in vain have I kept my heart clean
and washed my hands in innocence.
For all the day long I have been stricken,
and chastened every morning. (Ps 73:13-14)
But the Psalmist soon recognized his error and sees that the unjust have no lasting happiness in their possessions:
If I had said, "I will speak thus,"
I would have been untrue to the generation of thy children.
But when I thought how to understand this,
it seemed to me a wearisome task,
until I went into the sanctuary of God;
then I perceived their end.
Truly thou dost set them in slippery places;
thou dost make them fall to ruin.
How they are destroyed in a moment,
swept away utterly by terrors!
They are like a dream when one awakes,
on awaking you despise their phantoms.
The solution is not to emulate those whose success you envy, but to adhere to the Lord and His justice: that is where real happiness lies.
When my soul was embittered,
when I was pricked in heart,
I was stupid and ignorant,
I was like a beast toward thee.
Nevertheless I am continually with thee;
thou dost hold my right hand.
Thou dost guide me with thy counsel,
and afterward thou wilt receive me to glory.
Whom have I in heaven but thee?
And there is nothing upon earth that I desire besides thee.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart and my portion for ever.
For lo, those who are far from thee shall perish;
thou dost put an end to those who are false to thee.
But for me it is good to be near God;
I have made the Lord GOD my refuge,
that I may tell of all thy works. (Ps 73:15-28)
For God alone my soul waits in silence,
from him comes my salvation. (Ps 62)
Just because the Boomers are unjust doesn't mean that the rest of us have to be. We should be thankful for this opportunity to display virtue (whose lack got us into this mess). It won't be easy, but no real challenge ever is, and without challenges, how can one grow closer to God?
Some excellent commentary on the financial crisis here.
1. Notably raised by the so-called Greatest Generation. Maybe not so great after all!
2. Partially mitigated disasters. What saved Clinton from being an unmitigated disaster was the other party controlling Congress. What that saved Bush from unmitigated disasterhood was the moral debt he owed to social conservatives.
3. "Violence" - when one will not discipline one's self, one has to take it out on others, for example, the unborn, and people in other countries.

And so, tired but in good moods, we arrived in front of the magnificent Angkor Wat. When Frenchman Henri Mouhot discovered the complex in 1860, the natives of the Cambodian jungle were not sure who had built it. They thought that it could have been built by gods, or even by giants!
Behind the first gate we met the American couple from Cambodian border. Their trip was a nightmare. They were charged twice for the visa. First time by some men who met them before the border and second time at the border. They were very abusing and would not give the money back. The American went to Tourist Police and only then got the money back. When they were in Cambodia one of the taxi drivers took their luggage while they were bargaining the price (had ticket for the same bus as we did) and wanted to take off while the girl was inside and the guy outside almost driving over his feet. The girl was scared and wanted to jump out of the car when it stopped. So you see how careful you need to be. make sure you pass the border early afternoon.
The temple is just amazing, has several levels and different dimensions. The temple complex is made of three successively raised, galleried temples. The five towers of Angkor Wat represent the five peaks of Mount Meru, the home of Vishnu. The towers are not the only symbolic elements of the complex. The whole site, in fact, may have been modeled after the Hindu vision of the universe. Moats, called barays, surround Angkor Wat and symbolize the primodial waters at the base of Mount Meru. The complex itself is almost perfectly symmetrical, and may be a kind of astronomy tool. Even the number of windows, pillars, and steps in various parts of the complex may be representative of the number of days in the solar and lunar calendars. The complex faces west unlike the rest of the temples that face east: in the direction of the afterlife in Hinduism.We came across two Buddha statues in robes which are treated as a place of peregrination. Several monks took pictures of themselves and Buddha and
I took pictures of them. The temple is most known for extensive storytelling decoration.
These decorations depict gods, apsaras, dancers, battle scenes, mythological events and adventures, stories from the Hindu epics Mahabharata and Ramayana, and war scenes featuring the king and the Khmer army.
The five towers can be reached by twelve very steep stairways, were once covered with stucco and gilded gold decorations; the bas relief carvings too were gold-coated. Only traces of these grand decorations remain.

"I don't really like kids much," says Smith. "They're whiny, annoying, selfish, and manipulative little brats. But once in a while they just blurt out some crazy fucked-up shit that catches you off-guard and cracks you up." The half-hour show promises to be chock full of several such moments caught on film.

The Golden State Warriors are perfect no more.
Cleveland caught fire from three-point range in Game 4 last Friday, a host of Cavs poured in points, stellar play, tenacious effort and downright fire in the belly, holding off the Warriors' celebrations plans for another game in a 137-116 win that had it all.
A series lacking any zeal or excitement suddenly got jolted with some drama, flare and a stunning show of dominance from the Cavs. Those Cleveland Cavaliers, who seemed down and overwhelmed, aren't out just quite yet.

It was almost 25 years ago that Kevin Young became the first person to run the 400-meter hurdles in less than 47 seconds. His time of 46.78 seconds set a world record — and 25 years later it still stands.
Young, who won the gold medal in the 1992 Olympics while breaking the record set by Edwin Moses, was at the Maximum Velocity Track & Field Camp at Centre College in Danville last week sharing his expertise with youngsters from Kentucky and other states.
In the more than 140 years of Major League Baseball, over 210,000 games have been played. Triumph, heartbreak and the can-you-believe-that moments have all made their way into some of the most famous, memorable and thrilling MLB games in history. There were moments that captivated baseball and non-baseball fans alike. Triumphs that seemed impossible became reality. Heartbreak was on center stage and there were moments where history was made.

Kevin Knox Sr. was a football player at Florida State and thought for many years that his son, Kevin Jr., might be an even better college football player than he was.
Kevin Knox Jr. was a quarterback who could throw the ball 85 yards in the air, according to his father.
"He could move and throw on the run," Knox Sr. said. "But when he got to be 6-7 and wearing a size 16 1/2 shoe, we kind of started saying at 15 years old we might need to take a look at this."
The National Football League announced on May 23 that it was relaxing rules concerning touchdown celebrations among other rules changes.
The NFL, sometimes mockingly called the No Fun League for what many see as overbearing and restrictive celebration rules, will now allow players to use the football as a prop, celebrate on the ground and group celebrations. In a statement, the league said it was relaxing the rules on celebrations "to allow players more room to have fun after they make big plays."

Jarred Vanderbilt will be reporting to Kentucky June 6 as scheduled and apparently is fine after injuring his lower right leg/ankle late in the Jordan Brand Classic in April.
"Everything is going well," said Robert Vanderbilt, Jarred's father. "He's feeling good, looking good. He just can't wait until he gets his opportunity at Kentucky."
Robert Vanderbilt said his son was told to stay off the leg after the injury and has been doing exactly that.
On May 14, The Captain took the field at Yankee Stadium for one final time. Though he retired at the end of the 2014 season, this New York Yankees legend still walked onto the baseball diamond as a packed crowd assembled at Yankee Stadium cheered on, savoring this Yankee great's walk onto the field.

If the American Football Coaches Association has its way, college football players would be allowed to play in four games and still be able to count that as a redshirt season.
Most coaches already seem to be in favor of the potential change, including influential Alabama coach Nick Saban.
The Boston Celtics, Washington Wizards, Cleveland Cavaliers, Golden State Warriors, San Antonio Spurs.
Malik Monk is considered a lock to be a top 10 pick in the June NBA Draft, but that doesn't mean everyone feels he is destined to be a NBA star.
Monk led the Southeastern Conference in scoring at Kentucky as a freshman and was among the nation's elite scorers from 3-point range. Yet ESPN analysts Fran Fraschilla and Jeff Goodman both have some questions about his NBA future.
