Just wanted to give major thanks to our reviewers - we will definitely consider the constructive comments given to us as we begin to work out our upcoming repertoire and next album (which we should start recording around May).
I pushed early on to step away from the "wall of sound" techniques used on Arrival and bring the focus more to the arrangements on this CD, as I feel like the ability to pick out distinct parts and voice qualities makes for a more engaging listening experience. This is really just a personal preference, and I'm interested to see what the general consensus is on the forum with respect to the production qualities of Smash vs. Arrival. Has anyone here had a chance to listen to the CD? Was that goal accomplished?
And I also want to second what the reviewers said about our female soloists on this album - I am consistently in awe of their abilities w.r.t. capturing emotion in addition to all of the technical aspects. Some of these solos are way beyond collegiate in my opinion.

- Skipper: (confused): Kowalski...?
- Kowalski: (stumbling on ice): No need to paint! I'm as flopsy-faced as ever!
- Skipper: (after Kowalski gets up and picks up hockey stick): I...don't think you're fit for duty...

- [Last lines]
- Kowalski: Well, nothing left to do but whip up another batch of antidote.

- Rico: Oh, boy.
Episode 23: Misfortune Cookie[edit]
- Julien: And finally, it's the trampling by a thousand rhinos!
- Rico (a rhino tramples him): (yelps)
- Julien: Uh, slight glitch, though, we only have one rhino. So you have to do it a thousand times.

- (Some time later)

- Kowalski: We will honor him the way he would've wanted... by soldiering on like men. (all three glare at the audience)
- (A Moment later, in their HQ, all three are bawling; Kowalski is hugging Private while Rico spits out a picture of Skipper)
- Rico: Why, why, WHYYYY!?!
Episode 48: Dr. Blowhole's Revenge[edit]
- Julien (after Dr. Blowhole and he stopped laughing maniacally): Question: why are we laughing?
- Dr. Blowhole: Question: how did the prisoner escape?! (Julien leaps on him)
- Julien: Prisoner escaped?! Is he dangerous?
- Dr. Blowhole (annoyed): No, and apparently, he isn't very bright.
- Dr Blowhole: You'll appreciate this, Kowalski. I've installed a lair Theater System, High definition with surround sound. Exre-e-emely spendy.
- Kowalski: (slightly angry) Oh, why do the bad guys always get the good stuff?
- Dr. Blowhole: I am so glad you could all join me to witness history. I am, of course, especially pleased that my fli-i-i-ghtless foes graced us with their presence.
- Skipper: (annoyed): Wouldn't miss it for the world.
- Private: There's nothing good on Tely tonight anyway.
- Dr. Blowhole: (hovering over Private): Well, Private, here's a little show I whipped up. It's called:
- Computer Voice: Ring of Fire.
- Dr. Blowhole: It is fitting that I returned to the very aqua theater where I performed tricks for the duller humans. Oh, how it made me bitter.
- Private: Sorry. Did he say "bitter" or "better"?
- Skipper: Hard to say; the sound really bounces around in here.
- Kowalski: No, that would be the high ceilings.
- Dr. Blowhole: My humiliation in the Ring of Fire became my inspiration. In the Frozen North, we've constructed a vast circle of certainly surprising devices that tap into the heat of the Earth's core. (four drill-like devices break through the ice, glowing)
- Skipper: Oh, come on. (Dr. Blowhole zooms over to Skipper)
- Dr. Blowhole: Do you mind?! I'm just getting to the good part! It's re-e-ealy quite a shocker.
- Skipper: It's so obvious. Humiliated by the humans-
- Private: -activate the Ring of Fire-
- Kowalski: -melt the Arctic-
- (Rico babbles)
- Skipper: Well, how did we do, punk?
- Dr. Blowhole (slightly surprised): You're... in the ball park.

Episode 34: Love Hurts[edit]
- [Willing to see Shauna, Private veers to the right and blatantly avoids the Deli and descends to the right ground.]
- Skipper: Uh? Kowalski, what's on the right side of the Deli?
- Kowalski: I believe that would be Gunnerson's Home of Rusty Bear Traps.
- Rico: Oh boy...
- [Private falls there and shouts in pain as the sound of bear traps snapping is heard.]
Episode 35: The Officer X Factor[edit]
- Kowalski: "Of course! It's the salt. The sodium granules released from the pretzel cart into the convective cloud layer must have sparked a freezing nucleation reaction and BOOM! Instant rain."
Episode 36: Brain Drain[edit]
- Skipper: So we're stuck with the stupid Kowalski, well maybe it's a good thing. I mean we were all getting tired of his big high, fleeting words like recalcitrant, right? I mean, what is that? Recalcitrant. Do I like recalcitrant to you?
- Rico: Uh huh.
- Kowalski: Oh YEAH! Up high!
Episode 46: All Tied Up with a Boa[edit]
- Skipper: Boys! Butter me up.
- Kowalski: Your leadership is impeccable and your musk is an intoxicating blend of danger and… ugh."
- (Skipper slaps Kowalski)
- Kowalski: Right. (sees the tray of butter and realizes what Skipper was referring to.)
Episode 49: The Red Squirrel[edit]
- Julien: (after being submerged in toy dolls): I confess to everything! My father was not a talking water cycle! (is submerged again) I cheat at whistling! (makes raspberries)
- Buck Rockgut: These snitches don't know anything. They're just a bunch of "small potatoes."
- King Julien: It's true! I am also secretly a potato. OK, that one was a lie. I just wanted the ropes off, you know?
- Skipper: (after realizing Buck Rockgut was crazy) Well, maybe we left our paranoia caps on a little too long.
- Private: I do feel bad for the old guy. He's wasted decades chasing an enemy that probably doesn't even exist. (the penguins glide on their stomachs back to the zoo; a telescope appears out of a bush and reveals an underground lair)
- Red Squirrel: (pushing the record button on a tape recorder) Red Squirrel's log. Special Agent Rockgut has been dispos-sed of. (turns his chair around) Time to get to work. (laughs maniacally and leaps toward a metal door, but crashes into it) Stupid eye-patch.
Episode 50: It's About Time[edit]
- Future Kowalski(s): Private/Skipper, you've got to stop me!!
- Private: (in response to the first future Kowalski) Um... okay. Kowalski, stop, please.
- Skipper: (in response to and kicks the second future Kowalski) There, you're stopped.
- Future Kowalski(s): No, not me, me! That me!
- Private/Skipper: There's 2 of you?
- Skipper: (kneeling down at the statue of liberty sunken in snow cone shavings) Kowalski, you maniac! You did it. (pounding on the floor) You finally did it.
- Kowalski: Yeah, but you got to admit, these are pretty good snow cones. (picking up snow cone offering to Skipper)
- Skipper: Yeah, totally worth it. (licking on snow cone)
Episode 58: When the Chips are Down[edit]
- Private: OK, Mort, we have enough food for several days. I'm sure Skipper will find us soon, right?
- Mort: (sniffing his finger) Mmm! My finger smells funny! (giggles) You wanna smell it?
- Private: No, I'd rather conserve energy and sleep; you should do the same (starts sleeping)
- Mort: Nighty-night. (stares his head left and right)
- (After a time transition, Mort was revealed to eat all the food in the machine and lets out a really loud and long burp, waking Private up)
- Mort: BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRP!!!!!!!!
- Private: Oh, what was that?
- Mort: (lying on the machine, fattened up rubbing his big full Tummy) Ooh! My tummy don't feel so good.
- Private: What happened? Where's the food?
- Mort: Well, I got hungry.
- Private: (a bit angry) So you ate everything?! Even the Cheezy Bits?!
- Mort: They're not so bad after the fifth bag.
- Private: (begins screaming in pain) Do you realize what you've done, Mort? We needed that food! It's doom to us both!
- Mort: (sits down) Doom?!
- Private: Yes, doom, doom, doom, because you're dumb, dumb, dumb!
- Mort: (begins to cry)
- Private: Don't you dare crying!; Because only worse than being trapped with you the rest of my life is being trapped for the rest of my life with you crying!
- [Later at The Zoo]
- Private: See, Mort? It was good that you ate the food!
- Mort: But you told me not too.
- Private: I Know Mort! But it was good that you did anyway because it saved us! Don't you understand?
- Mort: [Mort puts his paws on his Tummy as his Tummy Gurgles very loudly and he let's out a very loud and big Fart]
- Mort: (Tummy Gurgles ) (Mort Farts very loudly) ( FFFAARRT! ) (Mort pats his Tummy) I have to go potty!
Episode 61: Arch-Enemy[edit]
- Skipper: One mistake little friend, we are like the three musketeers, except there are four of us and we're birds and in no way French, but the same team mentality applies.
- Dale: Couldn't care less.
Episode 92: Cute-Astrophe[edit]
- Julien: [once noticing the humans are unconscious by Private's Quantum Hyper Cute] Tell me, who among you is the Dark Wizard?
- [The penguins step aside to show Private]
- Rico: That guy.
- Private: I was just trying this new little thing I could do! You know, kind of a little... [uses the Quantum Hyper Cute as the other Penguins look away] Boosh.
- Julien: [lovingly] OH, LOOK AT HOW CUTE-- TOO CUTE! TOO CUTE!!
Season 3[edit]
Episode 132: High Moltage[edit]
- [Private uses his Quatum Hyper Cute, only for his feathers to fall out as he does]
- Kowalski: Of course, the itchy feathers. He's... [gasps] molting!
- Rico: [disgusted] Ew!
- Skipper: To the bunker! And cover the Private's shame.
- Alice: [weary] Wow. That was nasty.
- [In response, the zoo visitors instead recoil from Private's Anti Cute Attack]

PLEASANTON — Blackhawk Network Holdings, the Safeway spin-off that supplies the ubiquitous gift cards seen at an array of retail outlets, intends to raise $230 million through an initial public offering.
The shares for the IPO will be priced at $23 each and Blackhawk plans to offer 10 million shares.
Trading is expected to begin Friday. The ticker symbol for the shares is HAWK and the securities will trade on the NASDAQ.
It appears demand is rising for Blackhawk's IPO. The shares are being priced above the range previously indicated by Blackhawk in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
On April 8, Blackhawk filed papers for a proposed $210 million offer with the pricing at $21.
Blackhawk provides a prepaid payment network that uses its in-house technology to offer a broad range of gift cards, other prepaid products and payment services in the United States and 18 other countries.
For all of 2012, Blackhawk earned $48.2 million on operating revenue of $959.1 million. Compared to 2011, profits jumped 31.9 percent and sales climbed 27.6 percent, according to documents Blackhawk filed with the SEC.
During the fourth quarter of 2012, Blackhawk earned $36.3 million on sales of $452.9 million. Compared to the year-ago fourth quarter, profits rose 39.6 percent and sales increased 27.4 percent, the SEC filing shows.
Blackhawk Network sells gift, phone, sports, ticket, prepaid debit, and prepaid wireless phone cards through a network of more than 100,000 retailers around the world.
The cards can be found in convenience, drug, grocery, and specialty stores, including those operated by San Ramon-based Chevron, and Pleasanton-based Safeway
Blackhawk offers more than 300 brands of cards from companies such as Barnes & Noble, iTunes, Starbucks, Visa, and the NBA.
The cards can be found online or at Gift Card Mall racks, which display hundreds of cards that can be redeemed online or on-site at retail locations.
Despite the rapid robust sales and profit growth, Blackhawk warned that its success must overcome some significant hazards. One of the chief uncertainties is the ever-shifting strength of the network of distribution partners Blackhawk uses
"Our operating revenues may decline if we lose one or more of our top distribution partners, fail to maintain existing relationships with our distribution partners or fail to attract new distribution partners to our network," Blackhawk warned in the SEC filing. "If the financial performance of our distribution partners' businesses declines," Blackhawk also could suffer, the company said.

I finally succumbed and bought a Kindle – the latest ever-so-nifty Kindle Touch. Love. Love. Love. Which means some coddling is in order. Definitely. Like a padded sleeve (or two or . . . . )
A word of warning: I made my sleeves to be a nice snug fit for the Kindle Touch. If you have another ereader, you will need to change the dimensions.
The first sleeve I made, I created a flap. Then I switched over to using just a little strip of elastic and a button at the top. I actually liked that better since the Kindle still seemed secure but was easier to slide in and out. (Just so you know).
Supplies and Cutting Directions:
Front fabric:
- top piece: 2 1/2" by 6 1/8"
- bottom piece: 6" by 6 1/8"
Back fabric: one piece 6 1/8" by 8"
Lining fabric: two pieces 5 7/8" by 7 3/4"
Applique: scraps
Batting: two pieces 6 1/2" by 8 1/2"
Fusible fleece: two pieces 5 1/4" by 7 1/4"
Thin elastic (I used 1/8") – 2 3/4" length
decorative button
1. Join the top and bottom front pieces.
2. Place the front and back pieces over batting and loosely quilt. After quilting, trim the excess batting away.
3. For the applique: fuse Steam-a-Seam or other fusible product to the back of your chosen fabric and run through the GO! Happily, there are a lot of dies that will work with this size project. In these directions, I am using the Rose of Sharon die.
After creating your fused applique shapes, center them on the bottom section of the sleeve front.
4. After fusing, stitch down the raw edges.
5. Center a button at the top of the sleeve. You can decide how far down you want the button to go. I placed mine fairly close to the top, making sure to account for the quarter inch seam allowance. (If you decide to place your button lower, be sure to add length to the elastic).
6. Take your piece of elastic, fold it in half, and stitch it down at the top center of the back piece.
7. Place the front and back right sides together and sew the side and bottom edges. Trim the bottom corners after sewing.
8. Turn the sleeve right side out. Be sure to poke out the corners and press.
9. Iron the fusible fleece on to the wrong sides of the lining fabric, leaving a quarter inch surrounding all four edges of the fleece.
10. Join the lining pieces right sides together and sew the side and bottom edges – leave a three inch gap along the bottom unsewn (to turn the sleeve inside out in a later step). Once again, after sewing, trim the bottom corners just as you did with the outer fabrics.
11. Place the outer sleeve inside the lining so that the right sides are together. Match the side seams. Pin and sew a quarter inch seam along the top.
12. Turn right side out through the opening at the bottom of the lining.
13. Sew the opening in the lining closed.
14. Tuck the lining inside the bag and top stitch along the upper edge of the bag.
Now, how cute is that?
Here are a couple versions that use the GO! bird die. I love how cheeky that little bird looks!
How about the GO! puppy die? The flap uses a velcro closure with a vintage button for decoration. (In case you are interested in making the flap: if you make the length 3 1/4", it will reach to the seam that joins the top and bottom pieces. I cut my flap 3 1/4" by 4" and trimmed off the bottom corners at a 30 degree angle).
And, of course, you can forego the applique entirely and just use really pretty fabric!
These little sleeves are meant for when my wee Kindle is hanging out at home. I'm planning another version that encloses it entirely for when it leaves the house with me. Next week.
Meanwhile, all these versions were to offer ideas on how to use the GO! dies with these. I don't actually need this many, so I'm going to be posting my extras a little later this week on Etsy – just in case any one would prefer to just buy one and be done with it!

With a degree in mechanical engineering, an MBA and 14 years' experience in sourcing and procurement in multinational companies, Lydia Qin fit perfectly into Shell when she joined the company four years ago.
There are several things about working for Shell that make her enthusiastic. "After almost 10 years of working for American companies, I like the exposure to different cultures that comes with working for Shell, a European company. Shell is known for its customer care and it also provides a good platform for people's development. I also like that heavy equipment and big machinery are part of our work – it reminds me of my mechanical engineering background. Plus, the office is closer to my home which makes my life a lot easier," she says.
She's currently responsible for the China Sourcing Office (CSO) in Shanghai and Beijing. "I am proud to work here and exposure to new, challenging things is never-ending. Being a strategic focus in CP, China Sourcing has contributed value in terms of cost, delivery, and supply options without compromising on quality. Shell is the first energy company I've worked for and there are excellent programmes supporting women – it's encouraging to know that we're all equally valued here.
"When I first joined, the CSO team was still at the development stage. Four years on, I'm happy that we've managed to build a stronger team and build up our credibility. We've developed nearly 20 EFA suppliers in China, covering a wide range of supply from material and equipment to fabrication and services. The utilisation rate of these suppliers is steadily increasing. We have got positive feedback from various projects, which is good for the team and suppliers. It's been a journey – there are 14 of us and we work well together," she shares.
"We've all learned to prioritise our work and make use of the flexible working policy when we have personal matters to attend to. I have a few young mothers in my team – I often see what a big difference flexible working makes to their lives," she says.

This module is an implementation of a cache system designed to work with a Redis server. It uses hiredis client library to connect to either a single Redis server instance, or to a Redis Server inside a Redis Cluster. It uses the Key-Value interface exported from the core.
memory costs are no longer on the server
many servers can be used inside a cluster, so the memory is virtually unlimited
the cache is 100% persistent. A restart of OpenSIPS server will not affect the DB. The Redis DB is also persistent so it can also be restarted without loss of information.
redis is an open-source project so it can be used to exchange data with various other applicationsr
By creating a Redis Cluster, multiple OpenSIPS instances can easily share key-value information
The following libraries or applications must be installed before running OpenSIPS with this module loaded:
On the latest Debian based distributions, hiredis can be installed by running 'apt-get install libhiredis-dev' Alternatively, if hiredis is not available on your OS repos, hiredis can be downloaded from: https://github.com/antirez/hiredis . Download the archive, extract sources, run make,sudo make install.
The urls of the server groups that OpenSIPS will connect to in order to use the from script cache_store,cache_fetch, etc operations. It can be set more than one time. The prefix part of the URL will be the identifier that will be used from the script.
Example 1.1. Set
cachedb_url parameter
... modparam("cachedb_redis", "cachedb_url","redis:group1://localhost:6379/"); modparam("cachedb_redis", "cachedb_url","redis:cluster1://random_url:8888/"); ...
Example 1.2. Use Redis servers
... cache_store("redis:group1","key","$ru value"); cache_fetch("redis:cluster1","key",$avp(10)); cache_remove("redis:cluster1","key"); ...

You mean being the wife of Obama isn't politically motivated? She's just a regular woman because she didn't run for office? Who are you kidding? That's was pretty funny ... you are making fun of the First Lady, which is totally political. That is why you made fun of her looks in general. Please ... Boba, see what I have to deal with? Intellectual honesty is a rare commodity these days.
You are one to fucking talk...you're one of the biggest hypocrites on these boards, give me a fucking break...You said Michelle looked like an ape, didn't you? When you made fun of her appearance, was it politically motivated, or just an observation, I am really trying hard to see what side of hypocrisy you're on now..

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
DENVER -- The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) and Martin Marietta Corporation, now Lockheed Martin, have agreed to settle a lawsuit filed under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act (ADEA). U.S. District Court Judge Wiley Y. Daniel today gave preliminary approval to the settlement which provides $13 million in backpay and 450 jobs to laid-off employees who were affected by age discrimination.
At a press conference here to announce the settlement, EEOC Chairman Gilbert F. Casellas said, "This settlement underscores EEOC's commitment to upholding the job rights of older workers and ensuring nondiscrimination in corporate layoff and downsizing practices." The Chairman also lauded the use of mediation in resolving the bias issues contained in the agency's lawsuit. "The EEOC is committed to using mediation techniques where appropriate and feasible," he said.
EEOC's suit, originally filed in May 1994, claimed that Martin targeted its employees age 40 and over for a series of massive layoffs and forced retirements over a five-year period. Under the terms of the settlement, which is in the form of a proposed consent decree, Martin will pay $13 million to an estimated 2,000 former employees who were laid off between January 1, 1990, and December 31, 1994, from non-union jobs in Martin's Astronautics Group. Payments will also go to affected former workers in the Information and Communications System organization of the company's Information Systems Group working in Colorado. Most of the beneficiaries worked in Colorado.
In addition, the settlement provides that Martin will rehire at least 450 older workers who were laid off in those years. Some 204 older laid-off employees had already been rehired by Martin as of early August 1996.
Martin has also agreed to provide free outplacement services for two years to every former employee in the class who completes a claim form notifying the company of an interest in these services. In addition, the company will pay for a maximum of two courses per semester and as many as eight courses per class member who participates in the settlement. The courses will be offered at the company's Evening Institute, and will include college-level courses. Many of these courses are expected to be particularly helpful in upgrading the engineering and computer skills of individuals who wish to compete for future job openings. There are also provisions for re-training managers in nondiscriminatory decision making, including reductions in force. The Commission will monitor compliance with settlement terms for five years.
EEOC General Counsel C. Gregory Stewart said the settlement means that "valuable employees are being reemployed or retrained" by Martin. "But best of all," he added, "the avoidance of a lengthy trial made a real difference in the lives of the real people behind the charges that led to today's consent decree."
Judge Daniel has set March 5, 1997, as the date for final hearing on the decree.
In addition to enforcing the ADEA, EEOC enforces Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits employment discrimination based on race, color, religion, sex, or national origin; the Equal Pay Act; Title I of the Americans with Disabilities Act, which prohibits employment discrimination against people with disabilities in the private sector and state and local governments; prohibitions against discrimination affecting individuals with disabilities in the federal government; and sections of the Civil Rights Act of 1991.

The International Arms Trade
The International Arms Trade
ISBN: 978-0-745-64153-9 November 2009 Polity 176 Pages
Download Product Flyer
This succinct and accessible new book explores the complexities and realities of the global conventional weapons trade. The first book on the subject in nearly a decade, The International Arms Trade provides an engaging introduction to the trade, the effects, and the consequences of these weapons. The authors trace the history of the arms trade and examine how it has evolved since the end of the Cold War. In particular, they assess the role of the largest arms exporters and importers, the business of selling conventional arms around the world, and shed new light on the illicit arms trade and the shadowy dealers who profit from their deadly commerce. The book also looks closely at the devastating effect the business can have on countries, societies, and individuals and concludes with an evaluation of the various existing control strategies and the potential for future control opportunities.
The International Arms Trade will be invaluable for students and scholars of international relations and security studies, and for policymakers and anyone interested in understanding more about the conventional arms trade.

"Stohl and Grillot have produced a useful basic compilation of latest trends in the international arms trade from both supply and demand standpoints. They introduce the general and undergraduate reader to legal issues and underlying reasons for arms exports, ranging from the economic to technological and strategic, and they catalog both the continuities and changes among the world's top-ranked suppliers."
"The concise text, which makes a good introduction and reference guide, is supplemented by nearly 60 pages of notes and bibliographic information for readers who would like to dig more deeply."
Arms Control Association
"This is an indispensable primer on the global weapons business - how it works, who it hurts, and what can be done to rein it in. Stohl and Grillot have produced a hard-hitting, well-documented, and highly readable account of the most pressing security issue of our era."
William Hartung, Director, Arms and Security Initiative, New America Foundation
"This book does an admirable job of covering a very large literature, including human security and the illegal arms trade, among other areas. I don't think there is a comparable book available. The international arms trade is an important subject that is widely misunderstood. This book will go a long way to remedying this defect in our knowledge."
William W. Keller, Professor of International Security and Political Science at the University of Pittsburgh
"For centuries, the international arms trade has provoked conflict, produced vast bloodshed, and fueled local rivalries. There is no better guide to this deadly commerce - and how to control it - than Stohl and Grillot's The International Arms Trade."

Hey guys I got this assignment for my java class, to create two classes Point2D and Line2D.
Now I've created the Point2D class and it just takes in x,y coordinates and creates a point. It has a few methods, getX, getY and distanceTo(point b)
What I need to do now is create a Line2D class which also should have a few methods, but I'm stuck at implementing the constructor which should take two point2D variables and create a line between point a and point b.
So basically the constructor should look like this:
public Line2D(Point2D a, Point2D b)
I'm having real trouble getting my head around what should be inside the brackets, so I'm kinda stuck at the moment. Any pointers/help would be greatly appreciated.

In an apparent move to fulfill the three conditions laid down by the National Communications Commission (NCC) for its acquisition of the cable TV services owned by China Network Systems (CNS), the pro-China Want Want China Times Group has reportedly put CtiTV's (中天電視) news channel in a trust under the Industrial Bank of Taiwan (IBT, 台灣工銀).
IBT head Tony Yang (楊錦裕) confirmed the move on Friday, saying the bank has received enquiries into the entrustment of the news channel and had agreed to take on the case after conducting evaluations.
He declined to reveal further details.
CtiTV spokesman Huang Chun-jen (黃俊仁) could not be reached for comment as of press time.
The commission on July 25 last year conditionally approved the media giant's bid to purchase cable services owned by CNS, the nation's second-largest multiple systems operator.
The approval would take effect once the media conglomerate fulfills three stipulated conditions before specific deadlines: that Want Want China Times Group Chairman Tsai Eng-meng (蔡衍明) and his family sever all ties with the management of CtiTV's news channel; that China Television Co's (CTV, 中視) news channel be changed into a non-news channel; and that an independent editorial system be set up for CTV's news department.
The acquisition could affect about 1.18 million of the nation's households, or about one-quarter of households with a TV, making Want Want China Times Group — which already owns several media outlets including CTV, Chinese-language newspapers Want Daily, China Times and China Times Weekly — the largest media group in the country.
Upon the transfer of CtiTV's news channel into a trust, the TV station's management and personnel administration would fall under the control of IBT.
However, under normal circumstances, the trustees would not be entitled to unilaterally dispose or transfer properties belonging to the trustors without the latter's specific authorization.
According to an official from the Securities and Futures Bureau at the Financial Supervisory Commission, who requested anonymity, creating a trust would allow the trustor to transfer not only the management right of their property, but also its legal ownership to the trustee.
While there is no statutory time limit for making such ownership transfers, both parties involved could stipulate a timeframe of their own accord, the official added.
"However, settlors are also given the option to retain discretionary rights over their trust assets, allowing them to stipulate terms such as that sales of their properties would only take effect upon their approval," the official said.
The official added that the scope of the trustors' entitlement to their trust properties could be determined in advance by both parties.
Meanwhile, the media group has also tendered to the commission a managerial proposal to transform CTV's news channel into a non-news channel and an application to establish an autonomous editorial system for CTV, NCC spokesman Yu Hsiao-cheng (虞孝成) said.
Yu said the commission was already examining the documentation submitted by the group and would refer the case to the NCC committee for deliberation in due course.
Yu added that there would be no timeframe for the conclusion of the review.
"The amount of time required to review the case hinges on its level of complexity. But the one thing the NCC can be assured of is that all three conditions must be fulfilled [before the approval could take effect]," Yu said.

PRATT – The first migrating whooping crane was spotted on Oct. 24 at Quivira National Wildlife Refuge, near Stafford in central Kansas. A rare and fantastic sight, this whooping crane is part of the only sustaining wild population estimated at 250 birds. Whooping cranes from this population will fly through the state in upcoming weeks, making their way to wintering grounds at Aransas National Wildlife Refuge on the Texas Gulf Coast.
Past records indicate that most whooping cranes will pass through Kansas between Oct. 17 and Nov. 10, usually travelling in small family groups. However, on November 9 2012, 18 whoopers were spotted together at Quivira as they migrated south from their Canadian nesting grounds at Wood Buffalo National Park in the Northwest Territories.
As part of a cooperative monitoring program supervised by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism (KDWPT) encourages anyone who has spotted a whooper to contact their local natural resource officer or KDWPT office. Sighting information can be used to alert managers of key areas along the flyway — such as Quivira and Cheyenne Bottoms Wildlife Area in central Kansas — and to provide sighting records for the Whooping Crane Recovery Plan and for whooping crane research in the U.S. and Canada.
For more information, visit the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service website at www.fws.gov/midwest/whoopingcrane.

Shanon necesitaba un nuevo diseño de logotipo y lanzó un concurso de diseño en 99designs.
Un ganador ha sido elegido entre 142 diseños de 28 diseñadores freelance.
Our software caters to small businesses in the promotions industry - embroidery shops, screen printers, trophy shops. It is a database application, designed to help them manage their business. The first version of our software is almost ready for sale, and we need something impressive looking to help sell it.
Our target audience is going to be owners of small businesses. They are mostly going to be very busy people (not sure if this changes anything).
We would like the logo to kind of fit in with the graphics we already have. We had a graphic designer help us with the icons we use in the application, but she can no longer do any work for us. She picked a cartoony (yet still professional) look for our software. Examples of this can be seen at:
http://www.decezy.com/DecEzy_Main_Menu.png - the main menu of our application
http://www.decezy.com/DecEzy-48x48.png - The icon for our application.
We also have a by-line - "Promotions Business Management" that we are thinking on having on our logo (small, to say what our software does). We arnt sure if we really want this, so if we could have two versions - one with the by-line, and one without, that would be great.
I am not sure exactly how 99designs works - if you are only able to submit one logo, make it without the tag-line. (Having both with and without would be an advantage).
Also, I have uploaded the two images also, in case our website has problems.
The name "DecEzy" comes from the words "Decoration" and "Easy" put together (and spelt differently). I'm not sure if this was obvious, or if it will effect the logos, but I thought I clear on this.

Apologies in advance for what may be a stupid question from a layman. In reading recently about quantum entanglement, I understood there to be a direct link between entangled particles, even at arbitrarily large distances. I'm wondering how time plays into all of this.
Is there any data on how variable passage of time impacts this linkage?
For example, if one entangled particle is in a large gravitational field, while another is not (making the passage of time different for the two), is the link the same?
If spin or position is one of the observable traits of these entangled particles, do these traits operate on any measurable cycle?
If so, would these cycles be necessarily synched in order for the observed linkage to be present?
And if so, would asynchronous passage of time ever be able to break the synchronization and/or entanglement?
I feel like this unleashes a whole host of related questions, but hopefully you see where I'm going.

The squash can be served as a side dish, used as a base for soups and purees, or made into pumpkin pie filling. It can be stored for long periods if it is kept in a cool place. Also known as Blue or Australian Blue squash.

News tagged with gender
Gender comprises a range of differences between men and women, extending from the biological to the social. At the biological level, men and women are typically distinguished by the presence of a Y-chromosome in male cells, and its absence in female cells. At the social level, however, there is debate regarding the extent to which the various biological differences necessitate differences in social gender roles and gender identity, which has been defined as "an individual's self-conception as being male or female, as distinguished from actual biological sex."
The word "gender" has several definitions. Colloquially, it is used interchangeably with "sex" to denote the condition of being male or female, but in the social sciences it refers to specifically social differences, such as but not limited to gender identity. More recently, it has been equated with "sexual orientation" and "identity" (especially LGBT sexuality).[citation needed] People whose gender identity feels incongruent with their biological sex may refer to themselves as "intergender".
Many languages have a system of grammatical gender, a type of noun class system—nouns may be classified as masculine or feminine (for example Spanish, Hebrew, Arabic and French) and may also have a neuter grammatical gender (for example Sanskrit, German, Polish, and the Scandinavian languages). In such languages, this is essentially a convention, which may have little or no connection to the meaning of the words. Likewise, a wide variety of phenomena have characteristics termed gender, by analogy with male and female bodies (such as the gender of connectors and fasteners) or due to societal norms.
