In honor of the historic inauguration of Barack Obama as the forty-fourth president of the United States, a marble bust of the nation's first president, George Washington, is now on view in LACMA's American art galleries. The bust was not made, however, by an American artist but by a French one—Jean-Antoine Houdon (1741–1828). Believing sculptors in colonial America were then too inexperienced to represent Washington for posterity, Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin led the effort to find the best sculptor in Europe for the commission. The celebrated young Frenchman was chosen partly because he insisted on crossing the Atlantic to sculpt Washington in person rather than relying on existing portraits, a common practice at the time. In October 1785 Houdon arrived at Washington's home, Mount Vernon, where he measured Washington, made a plaster mask of his face, and executed a clay bust. From these important studies Houdon carved this marble bust, one of five he completed.
Gilbert Stuart, the painter whose later portraits of the first president are the most famous (one graces the U.S. dollar bill), greatly admired Houdon's vivid likeness of Washington. Stuart noted, "Houdon's bust came first… when I painted him, he had just had a set of false teeth inserted, which accounts for the constrained expression so noticeable about the mouth and lower part of the face. Houdon's bust does not suffer from this defect. I wanted him as he looked at the time."
In our era of instantaneous and global dissemination of images and non-stop media coverage of American presidents, it is interesting to consider how prized Houdon's representation of a younger Washington was, nearly a half century before the invention of photography. Acquired for LACMA in 1976 in celebration of the nation's bicentennial, Houdon's bust of Washington is still seen as admirably fulfilling the daunting mandate of Jefferson's original commission: "The statue shall be exactly that of life."

The paper describing the Einstein study is published in the January 13 edition of the Journal of the American Medical Association.
"Most work on the genetics of Alzheimer's disease has focused on factors that increase the danger," said Richard B. Lipton, M.D., the Lotti and Bernard Benson Faculty Scholar in Alzheimer's Disease and professor and vice chair in the Saul R. Korey Department of Neurology at Einstein and senior author of the paper. As an example, he cites APOE ε4, a gene variant involved in cholesterol metabolism that is known to increase the risk of Alzheimer's among those who carry it.
"We reversed this approach," says Dr. Lipton, "and instead focused on a genetic factor that protects against age-related illnesses, including both memory decline and Alzheimer's disease."
In a 2003 study, Dr. Lipton and his colleagues identified the cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) gene variant as a "longevity gene" in a population of Ashkenazi Jews. The favorable CETP gene variant increases blood levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) — the so-called good cholesterol — and also results in larger-than-average HDL and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles.
"Most work on the genetics of Alzheimer's disease has focused on factors that increase the danger. We reversed this approach and focused on a genetic factor that protects against age-related illnesses."
— Richard B. Lipton, M.D.The researchers of the current study hypothesized that the CETP longevity gene might also be associated with less cognitive decline as people grow older. To find out, they examined data from 523 participants from the Einstein Aging Study, an ongoing federally funded project that has followed a racially and ethnically diverse population of elderly Bronx residents for 25 years.
At the beginning of the study, the 523 participants — all of them 70 or over — were cognitively healthy, and their blood samples were analyzed to determine which CETP gene variant they carried. They were then followed for an average of four years and tested annually to assess their rates of cognitive decline, the incidence of Alzheimer's disease and other changes.
"We found that people with two copies of the longevity variant of CETP had slower memory decline and a lower risk for developing dementia and Alzheimer's disease," says Amy E. Sanders, M.D., assistant professor in the Saul R. Korey Department of Neurology at Einstein and lead author of the paper. "More specifically, those participants who carried two copies of the favorable CETP variant had a 70 percent reduction in their risk for developing Alzheimer's disease compared with participants who carried no copies of this gene variant."
Amy E. Sanders, M.D.
The favorable gene variant alters CETP so that the protein functions less well than usual. Dr. Lipton notes that drugs are now being developed that duplicate this effect on the CETP protein. "These agents should be tested for their ability to promote successful aging and prevent Alzheimer's disease," he recommends.
Other co-authors of the paper, "Association of a Functional Polymorphism in the Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) Gene with Memory Decline and Incidence of Dementia," are Cuiling Wang, Ph.D., Mindy Katz, M.P.H., Carol A. Derby, Ph.D., and Nir Barzilai, M.D., from Einstein, and Laurie Ozelius, Ph.D., from Mt. Sinai School of Medicine.
The research was funded by the National Institute on Aging, one of the 27 institutes and centers of the National Institutes of Health.

Patrick Sharp scored two goals, Duncan Keith had four assists and Corey Crawford made 24 saves as the Chicago Blackhawks beat the Columbus Blue Jackets 5-1 on Tuesday night to sweep the season series.
The Blackhawks, who started the night in sixth place in the West playoff race, outscored the Blue Jackets 31-10 in the six games. They won every game by at least three goals over Columbus, which has far and away the worst record in the NHL.
Andrew Shaw and Marian Hossa each had a goal and an assist and Brent Seabrook also scored for Chicago, which has won four in a row.
Crawford maintained a shutout until Rick Nash tipped in a shot by Jack Johnson to get the Blue Jackets on the board with 7:29 left.
Chicago scored on both of its power-play opportunities and also hit five posts. Sharp was denied a third goal on a breakaway in the final seconds.
The Blackhawks dominated from the outset, scoring three times on their first six shots. The last two goals goaltender Steve Mason just missed.
Chicago opened the scoring 4:12 in when Bryan Bickell dug the puck out of the corner then skated past the Blue Jackets' R.J. Umberger to toss a pass in front of the cage that hit off defenseman John Moore and went past a surprised Mason. Andrew Shaw, closest to the puck, was awarded the goal.
Just over 2 minutes later, Sharp was at the bottom of the left circle when he threw the puck on net. It somehow slipped between Mason and the near post.
The Blackhawks then made it 3-0 in a 4:10 span on the softest of goals. Seabrook was at the very corner of the blue line and the short boards, in front of the Blue Jackets bench, when he innocently flipped the puck 50 feet toward Mason. There were no Chicago players near the net, although Columbus defenseman Aaron Johnson was skating past the crease, as the puck eluded Mason.
It could have been worse. A miscommunication between the Blue Jackets' defensive tandem led to Patrick Kane coasting in all alone on Mason in the last minute. Mason stopped him but never controlled the puck, looking back over his shoulder into the net. With the puck sitting in the crease and Andrew Brunette bearing down for an easy jam shot, the officials blew the play dead.
After a scoreless second period, Sharp picked up his second on a one-timer from the right circle off a drop pass from Hossa on the power play. Hossa then made it 5-0 by crashing the net to score thanks to a centering pass from Shaw.

Usually, in life, if someone were to ask me to rattle off a list of things I hate, I'd have no problem going on and on for a good 72 hours with a long-running list of loathsome things.
Don't ever ask me what my pet peeves are unless you're free for the rest of the week.
However, since I'm human and I forget things because I'm getting older and also, I pulled my knee at Target and had to ask a little boy to "please help me grab that tea on the bottom shelf" and he looked at me weird like you're not even old. Why do I have to help you, fake old person? which only affirms I'm aging quickly, I often forget about things I actually really loathe but forget about since I don't deal with them often.
Like flashing Christmas lights. Irks me TO. NO. END.
Or going to the doctor and having to be weighed. Does my weight really matter? I mean, I get that weight is associated with a list of problems but omigawsh I'm only here for an ear ache and HOW DID I GAIN TEN POUNDS?
Or buying cards. Birthday, Christmas, anniversary, Valentine's, sympathy. I seriously LOATHE buying cards.
And conversely, I loathe making cards. I just kinda sorta wish cards could be abolished from life.
I mean, isn't the gift enough? I understand the concept of cards and I actually enjoy that; however, I'm far too lazy to make a card and that makes me look like a butt since I don't want to break out the computer paper and sharpies and draw sentimental stick figures for my sister's birthday. And I hate buying cards because holy cow, have you seen them? They're SO dorky and awkward.
It's like, my choices are weird, generic humor that's awkward because it's so stupid that it isn't even funny, otherwise known as grandmas wearing bikini tops or a picture of someone's grill with "Happy Birthday" etched on each tooth; OR the really super-uncomfortably mushy cards that leave me gagging.
You know, the ones like Brother. Brother, you're a true confidant. A true friend. You held me when I cried. You hugged me when I smiled. You touched my heart with your brotherly ways. I honestly would rather ingest bleach than buy my brother some corny card like that.
So basically, I left empty-handed. I figure I'll try my luck elsewhere, or if it comes down to it, just write on a Post-It and call it a day. Thank god for badass gifts to distract from the lack of card because I just can't even handle it.
Anyways. Cookies. Specifically, cookies stuffed within cookies. What did you expect, homie? We've been through this time and time again.
Girl finds gingerbread Oreos. Girl falls in love with aforementioned Oreos. Girl shoves them Oreos into gingerbread cookies and shoves those cookie-covered-cookies into a deep-dish pan because deep dish is my true love.
Girl eats cookies. And girl loves them. You will, too.
Deep Dish Gingerbread Oreo-Stuffed Cookies
1 pkg gingerbread cookie mix, plus ingredients on back of package
1/2 tsp cinnamon
3/4 cup cinnamon chips
About 12-15 gingerbread Oreos
1. Preheat oven to 375 F. Liberally grease a deep-dish cookie pan with cooking spray. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, prepare cookies according to package directions; stir in the half teaspoon of cinnamon + cinnamon chips. Drop a heaping Tablespoonful of dough in the bottom of each cavity; press the Oreo in the center of the dough and top with another heaping Tablespoonful of dough. Press to seal around the Oreo, if possible.
3. Bake for approx. 10-14 minutes or until the tops are set and the edges are lightly browned. Allow to cool in the pan briefly–about 5 minutes–before gently removing with a butter knife and allowing to cool on a wire rack.
4. Cookies are best kept up to 2 days, at room temperature, when stored airtight. This makes approx. 12-15 cookies.
Hoooooly cow. If you're a gingerbread fan, you'll love these double-trouble deep-dish cookies! The gingerbread Oreo inside gets slightly soft but still maintains that delicious, buttery crunch and creamy filling when baked inside this plush, spicy cookie. They're truly incredible!
Happy Monday!
xo, Hayley

A new method for calculating the role that mangrove restoration plays in slowing climate change, by capturing and storing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, has been adopted.
The methodology is adopted under the UN climate change convention's Kyoto Protocol, as part of the Clean Development Mechanism that supports emission reduction projects in developing countries. .
This will provide a significant boost to restoration efforts for mangrove forests, which grow in tropical and sub-tropical coastal regions and provide a wide range of biological services such as nurseries for juvenile fish and a source of timber for local populations.
"The new mangrove credit rules, as part of the wider "Blue Carbon" initiatives, will particularly help coastal and small island communities who will receive very few benefits from REDD initiatives which focus mainly on larger countries with significant areas of inland forest," says Prof Randy Thaman of the University of the South Pacific.
"The fact that this new methodology is now part of the Clean Development Mechanism should allow us to achieve similar results for other types of coastal and marine ecosystems," says Carl Gustaf Lundin, Director of the IUCN Global Marine and Polar Programme. "Adopting new policies and financing mechanisms for protection and management of our oceans should be at the heart of nature-based solutions to climate change."
Only recently has the important role of mangroves in trapping carbon from the atmosphere and locking it into sediments begun to be recognised. Many scientists believe that mangroves are far more efficient at trapping carbon than tropical and temperate forests, whose role as climate regulators has been recognised and established longer.
"To assist countries to engage in Blue Carbon activities, this week IUCN Oceania Regional Office will co-host a meeting in Suva with the Secretariat of the Pacific Islands Regional Environment Programme (SPREP) to discuss the Pacific Islands Mangroves Initiative (PMI) with their regional partners," says Taholo Kami, Regional Director of IUCN Oceania Regional Office.
PMI is set to provide an umbrella framework to help Pacific countries with management and restoration of their mangroves as well as prepare countries for participation in any climate change initiatives that will enable long term sustainability of mangrove ecosystems.
The methodology of the new mangrove carbon credit project was developed by IUCN, Ramsar and Sylvestrum for the Clean Development Mechanism and was based on field experiences from a 3-year partnership with Danone. The project was initiated by food and water company Danone and its brand Evian in partnership with IUCN and Ramsar, which implemented large mangrove restoration initiatives together with local communities in Africa and Asia..
"The new methodology will open up opportunities for mangrove restoration on a far greater scale," enthuses Bernard Giraud, Danone Vice President of Sustainability. "It will have a very significant impact on local communities and will stimulate companies to make corporate-level investment and grasp new carbon offsetting opportunities in coastal regions."
Mangrove forests are just one of several coastal ecosystems that play an important role in regulating climate and are commonly referred to as "blue carbon" solutions. Others include salt marshes, seagrasses, kelp forests and wetlands.
Many mangroves become degraded through the upstream building of dams, roads and irrigation channels. The methodology also recognises the importance of automatic regeneration of mangroves, which can be achieved through changes to the upstream hydrology or "re-wetting."
"Destruction of coastal habitats releases huge amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere and destroys livelihoods," says Prof Nicholas Davidson, Deputy Secretary General of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands. "Well-planned and implemented restoration and protection of these ecosystems delivers very tangible benefits to local populations in tropical countries, and increases the ecosystems' capacity to store carbon."

true as the
skipassource value.
To Re-add Additional IP Addresses
- Click Start, and then select Run....
- Type cmd, and then press Enter.
- Type the following code, and then press Enter:
netsh int ipv4 add address "[local_area_connection_name]" [ip_address] 255.255.255.0 skipassource=true
Note: Replace [local_area_connection_name] with the local area connection you noted in step 3 of the previous procedure. Replace [ip_address] with one of your additional IP addresses, as noted in step 6 of the previous procedure.
- Repeat the previous step for each additional IP address.

After graduating with a degree in sculpture from the London Institute of Arts, Taylor went on to become a fully qualified diving instructor and underwater naturalist. Taylor has created the first monumental underwater sculpture garden off the coast of the West Indies, as well as the Museo Subacuatico de Arte (Underwater Museum of Art) near Mexico. His sites are populated with statues cast from the forms of real people engaging in everyday activities, made from carefully selected materials that encourage marine habitation. The works are made in Taylor's studio and then installed carefully underwater and anchored to the sea floor; he considers his work "donated to the sea." Taylor has typically displayed photographs of the sites for exhibitions, but recently has presented fragments of submerged sculptures.

DESCRIPTION:Quantum mechanics (QM) is not compatible with the usual Boolean logic of subsets where elements have definite properties "all the way down." But there is a recently developed dual logic of partitions (subsets and partitions are category-theoretically dual) which models indefinite elements that become more definite as distinctions are made. If quantum mechanics was also incompatible with this unique dual logic of partitions\, then one might "press the panic button" and postulate unknowable hidden variables to restore definiteness or soar off into the void with "many worlds" or the like.
But quantum mechanics fits perfectly with the dual logic of partitions. There is no need for (more) bizarre flights of fancy to "interpret" QM. This objective indefiniteness approach to QM does not restore our common sense assumption of definiteness down into the quantum realm. But it does restore sanity and understanding to the whole framework. That is\, we now have the logic that precisely fits QM--a logic that was developed independently (i.e.\, without any thought of a QM connection) and that is the unique mathematical dual to ordinary Boolean subset logic\, the logic assumed in classical physics. Moreover the normalized counting measure on partitions gives the quantum-relevant logical information theory--just as Boole developed logical probabilities as the normalized counting measure on subsets. Indeed\, when the mathematics of partition logic and logical information theory is linearized and lifted to complex vector spaces\, then it yields the mathematical framework of quantum mechanics (but not the specifically physical postulates).
The key concepts explicated by this approach are the old ideas of "objective indefiniteness" (emphasized by Abner Shimony)\, objective probabilities\, and the objective realization of information\, "its" from "dits" (= distinctions). Since partition logic\, logical information theory\, and the lifting program "derives" the mathematics of quantum mechanics\, it shows how that QM framework can be interpreted--and this set of results gives what might be called the objective indefiniteness interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Tom DeLay has traded his dancing shoes for orthopedic booties.
DeLay, the former Republican House Majority Leader, told PEOPLE Tuesday he will be withdrawing from "Dancing With the Stars" due to stress fractures in both his feet.
DeLay went against doctors' recommendation not to perform on the Monday's show, saying "what's a little pain when we can party?" The former Texas senator paid the price after the show – his feet are now too weak to dance.
U.S. & World
Even though he finished second-to-last with 15 points, DeLay danced his last samba with partner Cheryl Burke to accolades by the judges.
Today DeLay wrote on his Twitter he is relieved to have "no stress fracture. It is a pre-stress fracture. I live for another day."
But the show must go on. Mya and partner Dmitry Chaplin remain in the lead earning 27 out of 30 with their sizzling rumba.

Because of the huge impact this site will have on genealogical research and finding source records online, I will be writing a series of articles highlighting new developments in the Research Wiki and explaining its functions. This first article will start to explain some of the unfamiliar jargon used by wikis in general and specifically by the Research Wiki. Words that are used in special way in wikis will be in bold.
The Research Wiki uses an online program from MediaWiki.org, the same program used by Wikipedia. Many of the commands, syntax and other features of MediaWiki are exactly the same in the Research Wiki, so most of the online support documents for MediaWiki also apply to the Research Wiki. It is important to understand that the overall structure and form of the wiki is determined by the program. As users add information, their contributions are automatically integrated into the wiki format.
The first thing you need to understand about a wiki is that it is entirely collaborative. That means that all of the information comes from the users. In the case of the Research Wiki, certain information was seeded into the Wiki by personnel at FamilySearch to kick start the project. But currently the new pages or articles are coming from users. A wiki is a collection of pages or articles (essentially the same thing) either with or without an overall theme. In addition to articles about genealogy resources, the Research Wiki contains all of its own instructions. Articles are created and formatted using a markup language called Wikitext. Here are some references to pages in the Research Wiki that will get you started in contributing to the Wiki:
Help:How to create an article
FamilySearch Wiki:Purpose and Appropriate Topics
FamilySearch Wiki:Conditions of Use
FamilySearch Wiki:Naming conventions
One of the basic organizational functions of a wiki is the concept of namespaces. "A namespace is a high-level category in which articles or pages are created. Namespaces help segregate articles about genealogical research from administrative types of articles, such as those that explain how the Wiki software works" See Help:Namespaces. Here is a list of the namespaces in the Research Wiki:
- Category
- All the categories used in FamilySearch Research Wiki to help users find and navigate to research topics that would be helpful in their family history research.
- FamilySearch Wiki
- Information about this wiki; i.e. policies that apply here. This namespace also has an alias, which is the name of the wiki installation.
- Help
- Documentation about working with the wiki software. This could be mirrored from outside sites, or locally written.
- Image
- For descriptions of uploaded files or media files. You shouldn't create these directly; they are created when you click the Upload file link in the toolbox.
- Media
- Use this namespace to link to uploaded files directly, rather than through the description pages.
- MediaWiki
- Use this namespace to change the default system messages, See Help:System message on meta.
- Portal
- Portals are in the process of being deleted.
- Talk
- Each page has a corresponding discussion page. This can be used for feedback/comments about that page, or other local notes that another group may want to associate with the page, without modifying the document directly, or for any other additional information to associate with the document.
- Template
- This is used for meta-information that is to be transcluded into multiple documents, such as tags to mark the status of a document.
- User
- For personal notes. Each User has a corresponding user page for their own information. Users can also create subpages, by using a / after their name.
- User_talk
- The discussion page on a user's page can be used for leaving messages. If this page is edited, the next time that user logs in they will see a box notifying them that they have new messages

As networks become more complex, the cost associated with deploying, managing, and servicing them becomes a challenge. And as link speeds increase and Service Level Agreement (SLA) margins become tighter, you have less time to react to suspected problems. These challenges prohibit the use of traditional approaches relying entirely on outside management.
Cisco network devices contain powerful technologies that can help you speed up and simplify your network operations and reduce operating expenses.

My brother got on a scholarship to go to university in Japan, he was given a year an half language training and then had to apply to Japanese universities.
I suggested he study in Osaka as I'd visited there and knew some people he could hang about with but he was advised not to study too far away from Tokyo as people would look down on him if he gained a regional accent.
Is this actually the case? I appreciate that they might make fun of locals with a regional accent but is would this apply to foreigners too?

Another Opening Day in Kansas City came and went on Monday, and for the first time in four years, my feet don't hurt.
While stepping away from my day job covering the fitness club industry, I served as a docent in the Kansas City Royals Hall of Fame. I worked three straight Opening Days at Kauffman Stadium, and with the ballpark open early to a sold-out crowd those days, I spent a good seven to eight hours standing on concrete. Not good for the feet, even with good shoes.
I only worked a handful of games each of the past three years, mostly on weekends. The goal was to share my baseball and Royals knowledge with patrons, but mostly it was "Don't touch that" or "It's OK to touch that" or "There are no bathrooms here—you'll have to go out onto the concourse."
The real goal of mine when I started in 2010 was to work the All-Star Game, which Kansas City hosted last year. I worked all three days during All-Star week at The K, including the game itself. I only saw a half-inning of the game (pictured above), but that was fine with me.
I was expecting to see fans from all over the country during that week, and to a certain extent, I did. But here's what surprised me, and here's where the fitness industry can learn a thing or two: The majority of fans who spent hundreds of dollars on tickets to the Futures Game or the Home Run Derby or the All-Star Game were average Joe families from Kansas City. They weren't all high-rollers who could comfortably afford these tickets. These people, from my perspective, circled that week on their calendars three years in advance and made sure they did everything they could to get those tickets, regardless of the price. The last time the All-Star Game came to Kansas City was almost 40 years ago, and it will probably be another 40 years before it returns. Kansas City baseball fans, with young sons and daughters in tow, weren't going to miss this chance.
The point is this: People will spend top dollar on something they want. Club operators, if you provide a product or service that people will want and that people will need, they will spare no expense. A lot of people are walking around with smartphones and iPads with service plans they probably can't afford, yet they have them because they make them feel good. A lot of people spend top dollar on concert tickets and season tickets to their favorite team because this is what they value. For better or for worse, going to concerts and being a season-ticket holder gives them a certain status in society, in their mind.
Club operators need to find that value and make people want to join, want to be a member, want to achieve a certain status in their community. That's why industry shows continue to hire business experts for their keynotes who wax poetically about the successes of Apple and Southwest Airlines and Harley-Davidson, as I mentioned in a blog post last week. Those companies know how to provide value to their customers. And people have a need to obtain value at any price.

Best Movies of All Time + Entertainment
Torn apart! Twilight's Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson go their separate ways after brief reunion at MTV Awards
Melancholy: Robert Pattinson clearly missed Kristen Stewart as he arrived in Toronto without his girlfriend
After a brief reunion at the MTV Movie Awards over the weekend, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson went their separate ways yesterday.
Stewart was spotted sneaking into Los Angeles International Airport with her bodyguards before arriving in London's Heathrow, while Pattinson arrived in Toronto to continue filming on Cosmopolis.
The Twilight couple managed to spend some quality time together at the awards show and at an after party together, but were soon torn apart again due to filming schedules.
Back in Britain: Kristen Stewart touched down in London today at Heathrow Airport
So it was no wonder that Robert looked rather melancholy as he strolled through the Canadian airport in casual jeans and scruffy trainers.
Pattinson, 25, is currently filming the David Cronenberg drama and stars as the lead male, Eric Packer.
The film follows a multimillionaire on a 24-hour Odyssey across Manhattan.
But his character as Edward Cullen is still his most famed role to date and The Twilight Saga: Eclipse won Best Movie at the MTV Movie Awards this week.
Torn apart: Meanwhile Kristen Stewart was spotted at LAX with her bodyguards and looked equally as sullen
He also won Best Male Performance in the film, while his girlfriend and co-star Kristen, 21, won Best Female Performance.
And Pattinson even won Best Fight after getting physical with Bryce Dallas Howard and Xavier Samuel in the film.
During the awards show the actor found himself at the centre of controversy when he and Reese Witherspoon both dropped the F-bomb on live TV.
After the reunion: The couple had previously spent some much needed time together at the MTV Movie Awards before saying goodbye again
Reese, 35, who was honoured for the Generation Award, was mentioned in Pattinson's speech to honour her, and his language soon turned foul-mouthed.
Speaking of working with her in 2004 on Vanity Fair and again recently in Water For Elephants, he said: 'Seven years later we worked together on a movie called Water For Elephants and you played my mother… I didn't cut you out, but I did f**** you', he exclaimed.'
He was referring to some of his Vanity Fair scenes being cut out seven years ago.
Cute couple: Kristen Stewart looked gorgeous in a little red dress at the MTV Movie Awards but had to say goodbye to Pattinson after the event
Co-stars: The Twilight couple both picked up awards for Best Male Performance and Best Female Performance
Reese then made her own inappropriate speech; by saying he had missed the punch line with his own joke.
She said: 'You're the best mother****** in Hollywood', she suggested was a better way of telling the gag.
Meanwhile, the trailer for the next Twilight instalment, Twilight: Breaking Dawn - Part 1 has just been released.
Watch the trailer below:

(Ed. Note: This article has been updated to include the recent dismissal of charges against George Palathinkal.)
Among recent enforcement actions by the SEC were fraud charges against an Ohio-based investment advisory firm and its president for concealing a $700,000 shortfall in client assets; charges against a Toronto consultant and four associates in a reverse merger scheme involving China-based companies; and charges against a hedge fund advisory firm and two of its executives for falsified results, as well as an asset freeze to protect client assets.
SEC Charges Advisory Firm, President for Hiding Asset Shortfall
The SEC has filed fraud charges and obtained an asset freeze after Professional Investment Management (PIM), an Ohio-based investment advisory firm, and its president, Douglas Cowgill, hid a shortfall of $700,000 in client assets.
According to the agency, Cowgill, who was also the firm's chief compliance officer, went to great lengths to conceal the absence of the missing funds after the SEC found the shortfall in a money market account the firm managed.
Account statements that the firm sent to its clients had said that it had $7.7 million in that particular money market account, but in actuality there was less than $7 million in the account. Cowgill manufactured a fake trade, which he later reversed, and even moved money from another account at a different financial institution to cover the gap—but that account was also held for clients, so it just moved the shortfall from one place to another.
PIM manages approximately $120 million in assets for approximately 325 clients, a significant number of which are retirement plans. From 1978 till Sept. 30, 2013, PIM was registered with the SEC, but last September the firm pulled its registration.
The SEC examined the firm in November after it learned that for four years straight PIM had failed to have client assets independently verified, as required by the Custody Rule, and had withdrawn its registration. The investigation found the shortfall, and in addition to filing charges, the SEC obtained an emergency freeze to protect client assets.
SEC Fines Reverse Merger Scheme Perpetrators $9 Million
Toronto-based consultant S. Paul Kelley and four associates were charged by the SEC with conducting illegal reverse merger schemes to bring a pair of China-based companies into the U.S. markets so they could manipulate trading and make millions.
According to the agency, Kelley and three of the associates acquired controlling interests in two U.S. public shell companies so they could put together reverse mergers with China Auto Logistics Inc. and Guanwei Recycling Corp. They then hired stock promoter Shawn Becker of Overland Park, Kansas, and others to tout the two companies' unregistered stock to investors.
The schemes involving China Auto and Guanwei Recycling occurred in 2008 and 2009. Becker, Roger Lockhart of Holiday Island, Ark., and George Tazbaz of Oakville, Ontario orchestrated manipulative trading in a third China-based issuer, Kandi Technologies, in 2009 and 2010.
The SEC said that Kelley, Tazbaz, Lockhart and Robert Agriogianis of Florham Park, N.J., reached secret oral agreements with management at China Auto and Guanwei Recycling in which they covered all of the costs to take the companies public in the U.S. in exchange for approximately 30% to 40% of the resulting stock. Kelley and his associates then acquired controlling interests in the two U.S. public shell companies that they used to conduct the reverse mergers with China Auto and Guanwei. They hid their controlling interest in the public shell companies and the reverse merger transactions by having others create at least nine Hong Kong-based companies to hold their shares. Nevertheless, the SEC, with assistance from the Ontario Securities Commission, was able to obtain documents and testimony concerning the scheme.
Kelley and his associates manipulated trading in various ways so that they could drive up the price and volume of the two stocks, then dumped their shares at a profit.
Kelley, Lockhart and Agriogianis have agreed to settle the SEC's charges. Kelley agreed to pay more than $6 million and will be barred from the securities industry as well as participation in any penny stock offering. Lockhart agreed to pay more than $3 million and Agriogianis entered into a cooperation agreement. The settlements are subject to court approval, and the SEC's litigation continues against Becker and Tazbaz.
Hedge Fund Advisory Firm, Execs Charged With Faking Earnings
A hedge fund advisory firm and two of its executives have been charged by the SEC with distributing falsified performance results on two hedge funds they managed to prospective investors. The agency has also obtained an emergency asset freeze to protect client funds.
According to the SEC, Aphelion serves as the investment advisor and general partner for two unregistered hedge funds: Aphelion US Fund LP and Aphelion Offshore Fund Ltd. Vineet Kalucha, Aphelion Fund Management's chief investment officer, has been managing investor funds since 2009 using a proprietary investment model he developed himself.
During a 15-month period, an outside auditor's report showed that an account Kalucha managed chalked up an investment loss of more than 3% during a 15-month period.
However, instead of revealing the loss, Kalucha fraudulently altered the audit firm's report to show a gain of 30% over an 18-month period. When the firm's chief financial officer George Palathinkal found out about the alteration, the SEC claims he did nothing to correct it. Instead, the falsified report showing the phony gain was distributed to prospective investors.
(On June 18, 2015, the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York dismissed the SEC's charges against Palathinkal with prejudice and without costs, and waiving all rights of appeal. As of Aug. 11, 2015, Kalucha was barred from association with any broker, dealer, investment adviser, municipal securities dealer, municipal advisor, transfer agent or nationally recognized statistical rating organization.)
In addition to distributing the altered report, Aphelion and Kalucha also misled investors about Aphelion's assets under management. While Kalucha told investors at various times during 2013 that Aphielion had $15 million or more in assets under management, the firm never had more than $5 million in assets under management at any point during that year.
Another misrepresentation to investors was Kalucha's litigation history. Under the legal proceedings section in a due diligence questionnaire included in Aphelion's marketing materials, Kalucha answered "None" and added a lengthy, materially misleading explanation of a civil proceeding in which he was involved. The proceeding, which he did not identify by name, was a case against him by the U.S. Department of Labor for breaching fiduciary duties. Kalucha and Aphelion are prohibited by a consent judgment in the case from acting as investment advisors to many types of common retirement plans, which often invest in hedge funds.
Kalucha, who is the majority owner and managing partner of the firm in addition to CIO, also is charged with using investor proceeds for his personal expenses. Aphelion and Kalucha raised $1.5 million in investments for Aphelion from 2013 to March 2014 by claiming to investors that the money would be used for Aphelion's operating expenses. Kalucha actually used more than 40% of the 2013 funds to pay for such things as settlement of a foreclosure action involving his personal residence, settlement of a breach of contract action filed against him in his personal capacity, down payment on a luxury BMW sedan and payment for tax and accounting services for his personal finances.
In addition to the asset freeze, U.S. District Court Judge Jed Rakoff issued a temporary restraining order and temporarily prohibited the defendants from soliciting new investors or additional investments from existing investors.

Chess is an abstract strategy board game and mental sport for two players. The object of the game is to checkmate the opponent's king. This occurs when the king is under immediate attack (in check) and there is no way to prevent it from being captured on the next move. Chess is one of the world's most popular board games; it is played both recreationally and competitively in clubs, tournaments, online, and by mail or e-mail (correspondence chess). Many variants and relatives of chess are played throughout the world. The most popular, in descending order by number of players, are xiangqi in China, shogi in Japan, janggi in Korea, and makruk in Thailand. The game described in this article is sometimes known as FIDE Chess, Western Chess or International Chess to distinguish it from other variants.

Mark your calendar's everyone because your prayers have just been answered. Samsung has just posted that March 10th will be the day when your Galaxy S II (GT-I9100) will get a taste of some Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich love. I'm not sure if I should say sadly or gladly, but you know TouchWiz will also be included with the upgrade, but still, I know current GSII owners won't complain. Have a look at Tony's extensive review on the unofficial ROM leak we caught recently, because it most likely won't change that much. The upgrade includes some multi-tasking enhancements, Android Beam, Face Unlock and the Data Usage feature we already know from the Galaxy Nexus.
Now these news are sadly not all fun and games since this upgrade will apparently only be available to owners of the unlocked model. Naturally carriers will follow (if they choose to), but we don't have any dates on their release. If you're on the list of lucky people eligible for the upgrade, I'd recommend you plan your day in advanced because there are a couple million of you on the edge of your seat waiting. Here are all the details on the upgrade so you can be ready.

Already labeled with the acronym CS: GO, Global Offensive is now in development at Valve in conjunction with Hidden Path Entertainment (Defense Grid: The Awakening). Valve said the game will feature new maps, characters, and weapons, and deliver updated versions of the classic Counter-Strike content. In addition, CS: GO will introduce new gameplay modes, matchmaking, leader boards, and more.
"Counter-Strike took the gaming industry by surprise when the unlikely mod became the most played online PC action game in the world almost immediately after its release in August 1999," Valve's Doug Lombardi said in a statement. "For the past 12 years, it has continued to be one of the most-played games in the world, headline competitive gaming tournaments and selling over 25 million units worldwide across the franchise."
"CS: GO promises to expand on CS's award-winning gameplay and deliver it to gamers on the PC as well as the next gen consoles and the Mac."
Valve said Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is set for release in "early 2012." The game will be playable at PAX Prime in Seattle, which kicks off on August 26, as well as Eurogamer Expo 2011, September 22-25.
Spy Guy says: Very cool. And I love that Valve invited bigtime CS players to its Bellevue, Washington offices to lend a hand in making Global Offensive a worthy successor. PAX Prime just got a whole lot more interesting. So, now that we know what it is, any other specific features you'd like to see added to CS: GO?

Anne Helen Petersen talks about her new book Too Fat, Too Slutty, Too Loud: The Rise and Reign of the Unruly Woman with Julie Gerstein, BuzzFeed Senior Lifestyle Editor.
If a woman dares to be too boisterous, or too outspoken, society's reaction is to tear them down. This has always been the status quo, but in spite of the opposition, the persona of the unruly woman has begun to garner positive attention and carve itself into the cultural consciousness. In this fascinating read, Petersen examines the traits that make a woman unruly, and why in today's culture, some celebrities that meet the mark are met with ever rising fame, as well as scorn. Why are we as societal voyeurs drawn to these women, and simultaneously harsh in our judgement of them?

He's as cute as a button, and he's all black in color. I'm talking about another character from Hello Kitty land, and created by Sanrio. This tutorial is going to be another fulfilment. I will teach you in a very simple way to learn "how to draw Chococat", step by step. He is one of the main characters, and a good friend to Hello Kitty. It's true that he's not always the sharpest tool in the shed, but when you want to keep up in full swing with what's going on in your area, Chococat has these awesome sensitive antenna whiskers. You may think that he is named after the color of his kitty hair right? Wrong. The fact is, Chococat got his name because of his chocolate colored nose. He is always seen wearing a blue collar, and and he has great fun playing in his house all day called the Choco-choco house. You might even catch this feline playing with some unusual friends like the Duckies. I had such a fun time drawing out this character from Sanrio, and I know you guys will love learning "how to draw Chococat", step by step. I am going to depart for the night but I shall return tomorrow sometime after I have celebrated my Easter season or holiday. May god be with you all, and have a safe and happy Easter Sunday!

Our luxury lingerie is crafted with very high quality silk and dyed to colours exclusive to our brand. Our silk has one of the highest densities available, which makes it a unique fabric: extra soft and shiny. This also means that our silk lingerie will last and will maintain its quality even after multiple washes.
Our lace comes from France. It is crafted by traditional Leavers machines that were invented in the early nineteenth century to reproduce the movement of the skilled fingers of women making lace. It is the finest and most delicate lace and it has gained a worldwide reputation for its unmatched quality. It is today the only lace used in Haute Couture and we are one of the very few lingerie brands to use such high quality lace in our designs.
We have opted to cut all our designs on the bias (rather than straight cut). This means that the direction of the cut is made at a 45 degree angle to the fabric's weave. Why such complex cut? Our bias cut will follow your natural curves and will fit beautifully on your body, as if the garment was made just for you. You will love wearing our silk lingerie and nightwear pieces. Welcome to our luxury French Boudoir!
Designed in London
Made in Europe

Some people may have advanced cancer when they are first diagnosed. For others, the cancer may have spread or come back after treatment.
Although it is rare for advanced cancer to be cured, people may live with it for a long time – sometimes for years. This may mean having different treatments when they are needed, or sometimes having ongoing treatment to control the cancer. During this time, many people carry on with their day-to-day lives and keep doing things that are important to them. Sometimes it may not be possible to control the cancer any longer, or a person may not be well enough to have treatment. In this case, doctors use treatment to control the symptoms of cancer.
Trying to manage diabetes effectively can be complicated if you have advanced cancer. This is because you may have a range of different symptoms that can make it difficult to control blood sugar levels. This includes symptoms such as loss of appetite, feeling sick, extreme tiredness (fatigue), and constipation or diarrhoea.
Some medicines used to help control symptoms, such as steroids and some painkillers, can affect blood sugar levels or the way that food is absorbed in the body. People with advanced cancer are often less active than normal, so their bodies use up less sugar. Advanced cancer can also change the way the body uses food, which can affect your blood sugar level.

Halifax painter Simon Thwaites may be a warm, kind person with a natural gift for putting people at ease, but don't get the wrong idea. He's nobody's pushover: Pick a fight with him and the odds are against you.
Thwaites' most legendary battle began in 1989 when the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) fired him for being HIV positive mere months before he was eligible for a medical pension. Before giving Thwaites his marching orders, the navy yanked his security clearance, which meant he was assigned to menial tasks typically reserved for navy personnel who commit offences. "My friends in the military thought I had committed some kind of heinous crime," Thwaites says with a laugh. At one point, the CAF even placed him in isolation and required him to wash his own toilet and tub with bleach.
The navy estimated that Thwaites would die within three years, but he was still around to celebrate in 1994 when the Federal Court of Canada upheld his landmark human rights case, sending a clear message to employers not to discriminate against people with HIV.
Human rights lawyer Peter Engelmann, who acted for the Canadian Human Rights Commission throughout the case, says the medical evidence introduced during the hearing helped educate Canadian employers about HIV at a time rife with false fears and misconceptions about the disease.
Engelmann recalls that Thwaites was compassionate and calm despite everything he had been through: "He took up this fight, which was especially courageous in those days. He was determined to see it through."
This past year, Thwaites, 49, began revisiting his journal entries from that tumultuous period and turning some of those emotionally charged memories into visual art. Back then, he titled his journal "Dead Man Talking" because the military was treating him as though he were already dead.
Even though the paintings inspired by journal entries from that period express red-hot anger toward the CAF, the images also reveal his determination to rise above his situation. His Salvador Dali-esque painting "Frustration" depicts a skeleton in chains kneeling in a graveyard on top of a pile of skulls with red ribbons on their foreheads. In the midst of this, a man standing on the skeleton's back sprouts wings.
"The skulls are the people who have died before me ... I am literally standing on their backs," Thwaites explains. "The chains exist because I am trapped in that, yet there's this individual in the middle trying to escape and be a person in life instead of just a skeleton or skull."
Even Thwaites is surprised by the depth of his anger back then. "I didn't realize at the time that I was going through that process," he says. "I've never been angry for having HIV. I was angry at the way I was treated ... How you treat people who are sick or going through a challenge in their life, that's totally within your control. Maybe I expect too much from people, but I think that the human race is better than that."
The court awarded Thwaites more than $160,000 in compensation, which amounted to roughly $30,000 after lawyers' fees and taxes (and the government clawed back even more later). He used the cash to put a down payment on a house and began to focus on creating art -- something he's excelled at since childhood. "My teachers made art fun," he says. "Everything else you do in life is either right or wrong. But they instilled in me that art can never be wrong."
Thwaites now enjoys the challenge of teaching himself new techniques and sees art as a way to connect and communicate with others. For this reason, his work reflects his own experiences and almost always includes hidden stories and themes. "I like to watch somebody look at a piece of art and try to figure out what it's trying to convey."
"Prophecy Awakening," a mosaic-style painting of hands releasing objects holding tiny people into the air, explores the idea that we all belong to a community that helps us discover and release what's inside of us. This is a fitting theme for Thwaites -- after all, few people understand the benefits and risks of belonging to a community the way he does. After living with HIV for more than 25 years, Thwaites has grown close to many people only to watch them die. He used to belong to a support group -- every single member died over the course of just one summer. And out of 27 people who originally sought HIV treatment at Halifax's Victoria General Hospital in the mid-80s, Thwaites is the sole survivor.
It hasn't been easy, but Thwaites continues to reach out to other people with HIV by teaching art workshops, joining support groups, even sitting with people in the hospital as they prepare to die. "The person who survives doesn't just take the sadness of losing someone," he says. "The person who survives also takes the love and joy that person shared with them in their life. It's not all about the loss. It's also about what you've gained."
In Thwaites' experience, joining a community of people with HIV to share experiences about doctors, medications and side effects equips many people with the information they need to stay alive. "I think support groups are the greatest thing since sliced bread. That's what it's all about -- listening to other people who are in the trenches dealing with it."
Thwaites says that doctors and nurses sometimes sugar-coat HIV information, but he insists on giving and receiving the cold hard truth. It may annoy people, he says, but his truth-seeking nature is probably one of the reasons he's still around.
"I'm the one at the conferences with my hand going up every five seconds," he says with a laugh. "People look at me and think, 'Oh no, he's in the room. Is he going to say something?' But if you don't ask a question, you don't get clarification and then you don't understand. And if I don't understand, I'm pretty sure whoever's sitting next to me doesn't either. I tend to be a bit of an activist that way."
In 2009, Thwaites became a minister and helped start a new church in Halifax called Angel Hall. His spiritual side surfaces in many of his paintings, which depict angels and resemble stained-glass windows. His most recent paintings of hands grasping and releasing butterflies reveal that he's ready for change in his life. "Next year will be my 50-year mark," he says. "What's beyond that? I'm not sure, but I see my art carrying me through."

As everybody knows, or soon finds out, there is a youthful vigor about the Pacific Northwest. Though ancient Mount Rainier dominates the landscape and members of honorable old Indian tribes still linger close by, they are reminders of newness and fast growth. Seattle is the youngest of the big cities on the West Coast. As recently as 1906, when the first public accounting office was opened in the city, Seattle was still the brash capital of a vast frontier stretching all the way to Alaska. The Klondike gold rush in 1897 had established it as the center of an expanding empire within a republic. Today, with the population of its metropolitan area well over one million, it is the industrial and cultural center as well. Much of the character of the Seattle Office has been set by its environment. Haskins & Sells was the second national public accounting firm to open an office in Seattle. In 47 years of service to the community, it has grown up with the city and with the people who are today its leaders. This may help to explain the fact that among our clients are the prestigious clubs of the city: Inglewood Country Club, The Rainier Club, Seattle Golf Club, Seattle Tennis Club, and the Washington Athletic Club. It may also explain in part the size and strength of our tax practice. In relation to total office practice, it is one of the largest in Haskins & Sells. Eight of our 42 professional accountants are assigned full time to our Tax Department, which with its wealth of experience takes an active part in the job of training tax specialists for the Firm as a whole. Events sometimes take shape rapidly in Seattle, and a swelling civic spirit suddenly made the city host to the 1962 World's Fair. Probably none of the thousands of opening-day visitors suspected that some of our men were on hand as "peelers," pressed into service for our client, the World's Fair Corporation, to help gather excess cash from the ticket booths and place it in depositories controlled by another client, Loomis Armored Car Service, Inc. Nor could many spectators enjoying the view from the top of the Space Needle, still another client, have guessed at the complexities we encountered in studying the depreciation problems of the 600-foot shaft and its revolving restaurant, the Eye of the Needle. Our experience as auditors for the Fair has enabled us to appreciate its evolution into a permanent scientific, cultural, and entertainment complex, where the city now enjoys year-around facilities for sports events, opera, symphony, and repertory theater. The staff of the Seattle Office has many first-hand opportunities to study the elements of the Pacific Northwest economy at close quarters and to understand what makes its wheels turn. We are well represented in the great industries of the region—in timber and forest products, water power, orchards, and aluminum, to cite a few that provide some fascinating experience for the staff accountant. For instance, it may tax his professional aplomb when, after stepping from a seaplane to a raft of logs, he teeters on the verge of falling into the chilly salt water. We have other good vantage points from which to view the whole economy as auditors of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce and of a number of the region's newspapers and radio-TV stations, among them the OFFICE PROFILE: Seattle by Dale R.

Caring diddlysquat about democracy
September 29, 2011 1 Comment
[Originally posted at Dale&Co, 27/09/11]
One of the less pleasant characteristics of the Coalition government is its cavalier attitude towards transparency, accountability and Parliamentary process. This is part of a more general impoverishment of democratic practice.
We hear reports of serious, but relatively small scale, issues such as Ministerial advisors using private email accounts for Government business in order to evade oversight and avoid Freedom of Information requests. We have last week's news reports of the proposed scheme of Ministerial buddying with big business. This is a scheme which, in many other contexts, would be condemned as tantamount to formalising the corruption of the political process.
The Government is not above ignoring the letter and the spirit of good Parliamentary practice. Examples proliferate. Read more of this post

Abstract: This article examines the importance of the treatment H. K. Hathaway gave to product costing issues in his depression-era writings. The paper compares Hathaway's approach to product costing with the contributions of Alexander Hamilton Church, H. Thomas Johnson, and Robert S. Kaplan. Some of Hathaway's product costing methods are improvements over those advanced by Church. Furthermore, Hathaway's proposals are relevant to con-temporary management accounting thought and practice.
The accounting and management literature contains abun-dant references to the contributions of Frederick Taylor and his "inner circle."Gantt's development of time-activity charts, Barth's slide rule invention and Cooke's application of scientific management in public utilities are examples of individual distinctions. Unfortunatley, the recognition earned by Taylor, Gantt, Barth, and Cooke overshadows the accomplishments of a relatively unknown member of the Taylor group, a member Taylor describes as "the best all-around man" in the scientific management movement [Drury, 1918].
Horace King Hathaway learned the Taylor system of scien-tific management while employed at Midvale Steel between 1896 and 1902. In 1905 Hathaway was hired by James Mapes Dodge to implement the Taylor system at the Link-Belt Com-pany. Later that same year Taylor recommended that Hathaway help Barth install the Taylor system at Tabor Manufacturing. Although Hathaway became the youngest member of the "inner
We wish to thank Professor Robert D. Hay at the University of Arkansas for his inspiration to initiate this research. In addition, we also thank the Commit-tee on Institutional Studies and Research at Murray State University for providing research funds. Finally, we express our appreciation to the following persons for providing helpful comments on various drafts of this paper: Gary Previts, Paula Thomas, Tommy Stambaugh, and several anonymous reviewers.
