Parents complain about handcuffing of elementary students
MURFREESBORO, Tenn. (AP) — Angry parents are demanding action after they say at least five students were handcuffed at a Middle Tennessee elementary school for not stopping an off-campus fight.
The complaints were aired Sunday at First Baptist Church in Murfreesboro, where The Daily News Journal (http://on.dnj.com/1SplyEc) reports more than 150 people gathered for a community meeting over Friday's incident at Hobgood Elementary School. The Rev. James McCarroll said the students were detained and later released from a juvenile center.
Zacchaeus Crawford, who said three of his children were handcuffed at the school, called the actions "nonsense in the fullest definition."
"There are innocent kids that have been arrested that have been entered in a system they have no business in," Crawford said.
Murfreesboro Police Chief Karl Durr and City Manager Rob Lyons attended the meeting.
Durr said he would begin reviewing the situation Monday. "Out of this, we want to learn and make things better so they don't happen again," Durr said.
"If something needs to be corrected, it will be," Lyons told the crowd.
Director of Schools Linda Gilbert did not respond to the newspaper's request for comment over the weekend.
Policies for detaining students in Tennessee are made at the local police level, said Maggi Duncan, executive director of the Tennessee Association of Chiefs of Police.
The Rev. Tolbert Randolph, who is pastor at Providence Baptist Church, asked officials to dismiss the charges.
"I'm asking in good faith for you to go to the arresting officers and tell them to drop it," he told them.

The Baddest B*tch Trina was spotted giving a post-game hug to her rumored boo James Harden of the Oklahoma City Thunder yesterday.
She was previously dating 34-year-old Clippers baller Kenyon Martin for years off and on. But now, after rumors started back in January, 33-year-old Miami rapper Trina has very likely moved on to a younger rising star–22-year-old OKC star James Harden.
The skin tight jeans wearing rapstress was at Dallas' American Airlines Center watching Game 4 of the playoffs where her rumored boo and his Thunder team swept the Mavs. And she was spotted courtside waiting to give Mr. Harden a big congratulatory hug. And she also looked pretty smitten laughing it up with her girls–and James' mother Monja Willis(left)–during the game.
Read full story after the jump
Trina snapped pics with her fans while waiting post-game for James. And she tweeted afterwards, #FEARTHEBEARD, which is what the Harden supporters love to say.
Over the past couple of months, the twosome have been exchanging some pretty flirtatious tweets, including one where James told a fan Trina is the celeb female he'd love to marry right now:

Back in August when white nationalists took over Charlottesville, 20-year old DeAndre Harris was brutally beaten with wooden sticks and poles and was kicked by six men.
The attack was caught on camera and subsequently went viral. Unfortunately, a warrant was issued for Harris's arrest on an unlawful wounding charge yesterday by a magistrate court.
This is essentially the same crime that Harris's attackers should be charged with and his lawyer S. Lee Merritt calls the charge "retaliatory." He also reiterated to the Washington Post that Harris did not instigate the fight. "We find it highly offensive and upsetting, but what's more jarring is that he's been charged with the same crime as the men who attacked him," he said.
View this post on Instagram
Yesterday evening I received a text message from my good friend, Attorney Lee Merritt, that the Charlottesville Virginia Police Department had just done something unthinkable – they issued an arrest warrant for DeAndre Harris – the young brother who was brutally assaulted by a mob of white supremacists earlier this summer. I'd like to say that it's a baffling development, but it isn't. Every single Neo-Nazi and white supremacist they've arrested has been identified by me and a team of volunteers. We have literally had to find the names, addresses, and criminal histories of these men, turn them over to police, then basically force them, through making thousands of phone calls and emails, to issue the arrest warrants. Even though the entire assault is on video, and the men are clearly seen breaking the law, they've had to be cornered into justice. Please allow me to remind you that DeAndre was beaten bloody with fists, feet, flag poles, sticks, shields, and batons – in the parking lot of the Charlottesville Police Department – and that this police department stood down while white supremacists took over their entire town – beating people and eventually killing a young woman – Heather Heyer, by mauling her and dozens of others with one of their cars. I want to be clear on something. I've watched every single video, and have seen every single photo, taken that day from Charlottesville. I've spent hundreds of hours researching it, moment by moment, block by block, person by person. DeAndre Harris and Heather Heyer were actually from Charlottesville. They showed up that Saturday in their hometown to stand up for their city and to show the hundreds of bigots who traveled there from all over the country to terrorize Charlottesville that it was not OK with them. Right before a mob of men beat DeAndre, a man used a flag pole that had a sharp tip on the end of it, and tried to spear DeAndre's friend with it. DeAndre, who had never been violent or arrested a day in his life, swung to try back the man away from his friend. That's it. The Charlottesville Police Department has issued an arrest warrant for DeAndre Harris for that. He will turn himself in later today.
Activist and reporter Shaun King was not here for the mess and got some things off of his chest!

Paradigm Protect now has access to the Exeter's new Impaired Lives proposition.
An impaired life refers to any client w ho has a serious or multiple health conditions, and/or has previously been declined for life insurance.
The Exeter has recently extended the cover available under its Managed Life proposition, which launched in 2017 offering targeted, responsive cover aimed at just two groups – those with type two diabetes and those with a high BMI (up to 48).
The protection specialist recently extended the cover to include impaired lives which is a significant step in offering client's life protection where it has previously been extremely difficult to secure.
Most insurers target preferred lives and don't extend cover to clients who suffer from, or have experienced, many conditions such as cancer, complex heart conditions, anxiety/stress/depression, HIV, a BMI up to 55 or type 1 diabetes.
To date, the Exeter has only offered this through a limited distribution panel, of which Paradigm Protect is now one. Directly authorised advisers who use Paradigm's protection proposition now have access to this extended cover product before it is released to the whole market.
Mike Allison, head of Protection at Paradigm, said: "We are delighted to be able to provide Paradigm Protect advisers access to this recently enhanced Managed Life product from The Exeter. The number of people who are affected by serious health conditions is considerable – for instance 24.8% of the UK population are defined as obese, one in two people will experience cancer in their lifetime, and seven million people are living with a heart condition.
"Finding suitable cover for those with impaired lives has always been a major challenge, particularly as provider withdrawals have hit this part of the market so to have the Exeter active here is a considerable boost, and we're sure will be met with significant demand from advisers.
"It's clearly a growing marketplace and we get a significant amount of queries to our protection helpdesk, not just around the products themselves, but also the level of support that's provided to clients who are dealing with such illnesses."
Mark Meads, head of strategic relationships at the Exeter, added: "As we continue our phased roll-out of our new impaired life proposition, we are delighted to be working with Paradigm and their member firms from the beginning of February."

Intact DNA purified from flow-sorted nuclei unlocks the potential of next-generation genome mapping and assembly in Solanum species
Gaiero, Paola; Šimková, Hana; Vrána, Jan; Santiñaque, Federico F.; López-Carro, Beatriz; Folle, Gustavo A.; Belt, José van de; Peters, Sander A.; Doležel, Jaroslav; Jong, Hans de
Next-generation genome mapping through nanochannels (Bionano optical mapping) of plant genomes brings genome assemblies to the 'nearly-finished' level for reliable and detailed gene annotations and assessment of structural variations. Despite the recent progress in its development, researchers face the technical challenges of obtaining sufficient high molecular weight (HMW) nuclear DNA due to cell walls which are difficult to disrupt and to the presence of cytoplasmic polyphenols and polysaccharides that co-precipitate or are covalently bound to DNA and might cause oxidation and/or affect the access of nicking enzymes to DNA, preventing downstream applications. Here we describe important improvements for obtaining HMW DNA that we tested on Solanum crops and wild relatives. The methods that we further elaborated and refined focus on • Improving flexibility of using different tissues as source materials, like fast-growing root tips and young leaves from seedlings or in vitro plantlets.• Obtaining nuclei suspensions through either lab homogenizers or by chopping.• Increasing flow sorting efficiency using DAPI (4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole) and PI (propidium iodide) DNA stains, with different lasers (UV or 488 nm) and sorting platforms such as the FACSAria and FACSVantage flow sorters, thus making it appropriate for more laboratories working on plant genomics.The obtained nuclei are embedded into agarose plugs for processing and isolating uncontaminated HMW DNA, which is a prerequisite for nanochannel-based next-generation optical mapping strategies.

Eagle Theatre, Inc.
208 Vine Street
PO Box 388
Hammonton, NJ 08037
County: Atlantic
ContactMr. Zane Sebasovich
Grant Amount$15,000
Program AreaArts
Grant Details
For general operating support of Eagle Theatre's 2016-17 performance season to serve South New Jersey audiences.
Organization Background
The Eagle Theatre is South Jersey's only year round professional Equity theatre. We are dedicated to redefining regional theatre through innovation; enlightened production techniques and the development of eclectic theatrics.
The historic Eagle Theatre building was constructed in 1914. The 100 year old theatre was originally built as a silent motion picture house, until it was turned into a church and then a warehouse for the majority of its existence. In 2008 Tracy Petrongolo and James Donio worked with the Town of Hammonton to revive the beloved theatre. A year later the theatre re-opened its doors to the public for the first time in 80 years.
The Eagle Theatre went through several incarnations during its first few years of operation as a non-profit. The theatre screened movies, rented out its space, and presented live theatre produced by several regional acting troops. Then the theatre board and staff began a relationship with directors Ted Wioncek III and Ed Corsi.
Wioncek and Corsi each operated their own successful for-profit production companies and staged live plays and musicals throughout Southern New Jersey. Their work was met with much success and critical acclaim. Donio approached the pair to join the Eagle Theatre to become its Co-Artistic Directors. At the moment of their agreement, the Eagle Theatre dedicated itself to only producing the finest live theatre in the region.
The Eagle Theatre steadily grew, gaining accolade after accolade. The Theatre became an Actors' Equity Association Theatre in early 2014, deepening its acquisition of talent. The New Jersey Theatre Alliance inducted the Eagle Theatre into its organization, a significant turning point. Theatre Philadelphia accepted the Eagle Theatre into its prestigious Barrymore Award eligibility in 2014 as well, and the Theatre received Barrymore recommended status for its first four eligible productions. The Theatre gained outstanding critical reviews for every production it has produced since becoming an Equity theatre from media outlets in New Jersey, the Philadelphia region and beyond.

Cowes Sports vs Winchester City FC Match Report
Winchester City avoided an embarrassing defeat on Saturday by producing a superb comeback to win 4-3 away to Cowes Sports.
City traveled to the Isle of Wight on the back of two convincing victories against Laverstock & Ford and Alton Town to face a Cowes side currently propping up the Wessex Premier, having failed to win in their last seven matches.
Cowes started the brighter and made the most of the wet weather when City 'keeper Rory Anderson dropped the ball to allow Lee Davies to slot home inside three minutes.
Things were made worse for City when Craig Thomas curled his shot into the top corner to give the league's bottom side a surprise 2-0 lead. Winchester replied quickly when Zak Glasspool headed home an Adam Roberts corner to reduce the deficit to one goal.
City then piled on the pressure and were level just before the half hour mark when Ian Davies fired home from Zak Glasspool's pass. The turn around was then compete as Sol Asajile beat three players to fire home from 25 yards and send Winchester in 3-2 up at the break.
The second half failed to live up the standards set by the first half but Cowes' misery was compounded when substitute Nathan Lynch put City 4-2 to seal the victory. Cowes then attempted a comeback of their own when Gareth Bricknell scored a diving header but it proved to be too late as Winchester ran out 4-3 winners.
The result means City remain in 9th place and they will look to continue their impressive form at home to 5th place Fareham Town on Saturday. Saturday also brings a top against bottom clash as Cowes entertain league leaders Bournemouth Poppies.

Winchester City 1-0 Alton Town 17/11/09
Winchester City extended their unbeaten run to four matches last night with a 1-0 win over Alton Town at the Denplan City Ground.
City have won three and drawn one in their last four matches whilst Alton had failed to win at their last three attempts.
The first half produced a tightly contested midfield battle with neither side having a clear-cut chance. Despite a difference of nine league places between the two sides the first half was evenly matched and ended goalless.
Winchester manager Stuart Hussey's half time team talk seemed to have an effect as his side produced a dominant display straight after the break.
Winchester winger Zak Glasspool was guilty of missing a guilt edged chance as he fired his shot over the bar from six yards with only the 'keeper to beat.
A few minutes later, in form midfielder, turned striker Danny Cox beat Alton 'keeper Dan Hill from outside the area but saw his curling effort hit the crossbar.
Winchester continued to press their opponents and had more chances to break the deadlock. Ian Davies, who replaced the injured Nathan Lynch after 15 minutes, tested Hill but the Alton 'keeper
kept his side in the game once again.
Moments later, Davies was again causing the Alton defence problems when he broke through on goal but was brought down in the box to earn his side a clear penalty with twenty minutes remaining.
Danny Cox fired the penalty home to break the deadlock and score his fourth goal in as many matches.
Alton then came back into the match and with just five minutes left the away side sent a free header over the bar to give Winchester the three points.
Stuart Hussey was pleased with his side's performance;
"I think it was for all to see in the second half that we totally dominated. We really played some great football and that's pleasing to see."
The result leaves Winchester in 11th place on goal difference, whilst Alton Town stay in the bottom three.

Moneyfields FC vs Winchester City FC Match Report
Moneyfields vs. Winchester
Moneyfields Sports and Social Club. 07/11/09
Winchester notched their 11th draw of the season on Saturday as they played out a goalless draw with in form Moneyfields.
Winchester travelled to Moneyfields on the back of a midweek victory to face a side that had lost just once in their last four matches.
City once again lacked the finishing touch as they were unable to capitalise on their dominance and left Moneyfields Sports and Social Club disappointed with just one point.
Winchester's front man Shane Flooks was guilty of missing his side's best chance in the first half on the 25-minute mark. Flooks managed to get through on goal but dragged his shot wide from the edge of the Moneyfields area.
Five minutes later, City's Nathan Lynch was causing problems for the opposition defence but squandered the chance by hitting his shot straight at the Moneyfields' keeper.
Winchester continued to press as half time loomed as Adam 'Pedro' George produced a good save from the Moneyfields' keeper with a curling shot from the edge of the area.
The first half ended goalless with Winchester having failed to take the lead despite their dominance. Moneyfields rarely threatened the City centre backs Guy Butters and Connor McCarthy who produced a solid defensive display.
The second half produced a rather dull affair with both sides having few chances. Winchester's best chance was in the form of a free kick on the edge of the area which Zak Glasspool sent over the bar.
Winchester boss Stuart Hussey thought his side had deserved the three points;
"Coming away to Moneyfields is never an easy place to come, but over the 90 minutes I think we deserved the win," said Hussey.
"We'll go away a little disappointed, but that's one defeat in 11 for us now, so overall reasonably pleased," he added.
The result leaves Winchester in 11th place, six points outside their season aim of a top eight finish, whilst Moneyfields are five points better off in 10th place.

New Milton vs Winchester City FC Match Report
New Milton FC vs Winchester City FC
WINCHESTER city earned their third victory of the season on Tuesday night with a one nil win over local rivals New Milton Town.
City travelled to Fawcetts Field to face a New Milton side lying in 17th place with just three wins from their 15 matches. Winchester sat just two places higher having drawn ten of their matches so far this season.
The visitors pressured New Milton for majority of the first half but as has been a problem for City this season they were unable to find the end product to kill off their opponents and the first half ended goalless.
After the break it was New Milton who came out the livelier and put their opponents under a lot of pressure and forced City keeper Rory Anderson into a good save.
It was the introduction of Adam Roberts as a second half substitute for Adam 'Pedro' George on the 53rd minute. Roberts turned the game in Winchester's favour as he began to dominate the midfield battle.
Just past the hour mark Winchester forced the New Milton 'keeper into two great saves who kept his side in the game on a number of occasions.
However, City's dominance proved too much for their opponents as they sealed victory on the 75th minute when Danny Cox slotted home Adam Roberts' cross.
The relief for many of the travelling Winchester fans was clear as their side had finally closed a game out and added to this season's number of victories and not the growing number of draws.

Drunken Mistake?
Melanie Reid explains how this student came to be in this awful position, he had been on a pub crawl called Carnage, which if you're a student reading this, I'm sure you've head of and many have probably been on! In some respects, I feel sorry for the student as many people in Britain have been in the position where they've consumed far too much alcohol and have done 'silly' things but in the same respect I think it is an absolutely disgusting act.
She goes on to blame the drinks industry and with her last line asks the question "Why weren't Carnage in the dock? That they weren't says it all." This is a reference to the fact that the student who urinated on the war memorial has been in court and could possibly face a jail sentence. I think that blaming the drinks industry is a cop out when it comes to people facing responsibility. Yes these bar crawls promote drinking and many people get extremely drunk when on them but surely that is the choice of the person? They are not forced to go on these crawls and many people I know who have been on them have always had an excellent time. The act of urinating on a war memorial is perhaps a result of going on the bar crawl organised by Carnage but he himself got into the state he was in and he himself urinated on the war memorial.
I see that this student has been made an example of and is in someways a scapegoat for the binge culture that is often plastered across the tabloids but in the same way I think after such a disgraceful act it was just, a war memorial is a place of remembrance and place that deserves so much better.

The Football Fan Always Knows Best...
A lot of this weeks sports coverage has revolved around the security of Rafa Benitez's job as Liverpool F.C. manager. Liverpool have had a pretty bad run of results recently (if you take away the 2-0 win over Manchester United!) But as the tabloids were busy rolling out the Halloween puns ("Hell-oween" and "Liverghoul" were too crackers) after Liverpool's latest loss against Fulham, I was thinking about Rafa's Liverpool achievements so far.

Twenty-Six Deaths in a County Jail
LAFAYETTE, La. (CN) – Twenty-six people have died in Louisiana's Lafayette Parish jail since 2000 – one death every six months, the latest being a man who spent 16 days in solitary on a misdemeanor for which he never was booked, his family claims in Federal Court.
Phillip Howard Jr. sued Lafayette Parish Sheriff Michael W. Neustrom and his employee Rob Reardon, the parish's director of corrections, for the wrongful death and false imprisonment of his nephew, John Horace Howard Jr.
A parish is Louisiana's version of a county. Lafayette is in Cajun country in south central Louisiana.
John Howard was arrested on misdemeanor charges on Nov. 29, 2012, and taken to the Lafayette Parish Correctional Center for booking. Howard "was exhibiting bizarre behavior, which continued until the time of his death," according to his uncle's lawsuit.
On Dec. 15, John Howard was found unresponsive in the cell.
"Despite the Lafayette Parish Correctional Center policy of immediately booking and releasing individuals charged with misdemeanor offenses, John Horace Howard Jr. was held without bond, and without being booked or charged for a period of sixteen days," his uncle says.
John Howard "had a history of mental and physical illness well documented in the medical and institutional records of the Lafayette Parish Correctional Center," according to the complaint.
When he died, he "was allegedly being held pending a mental illness evaluation," his uncle says.
"Since Michael W. Neustrom has taken office as sheriff for Lafayette Parish in 2002 there have been approximately twenty-six in-custody deaths, or approximately one every six months," the lawsuit states.
Phillip Howard seeks compensatory and punitive damages for wrongful death, false imprisonment, negligence, deliberate indifference and constitutional violations.
He is represented by L. Clayton Burgess of Lafayette.
Lafayette, pop. 115,000, the parish county seat, is 62 percent white, 31 percent black and 4 percent Latino, according to city-data.com.
Nine hundred and six inmates died in U.S. jails in 2008, according to a December 2011 report from the U.S. Department of Justice -a rate of 127 deaths per 100,000 inmates.
"The number of inmate deaths in jails increased each year between 2000 and 2007 (from 904 to 1,102 inmate deaths), increasing 22 percent during this period," according to the Justice Department report, "Prison and Jail Deaths in Custody, 2000-2009 – Statistical Tables."
The Baltimore Sun reported in 2006 that 7,000 inmates die in U.S. jails and prisons each year, most of them "from mental disorders left undiagnosed and diseases left untreated."
Sheriff Neustrom says on his web page : "Louisiana ranks number one in incarceration not only in the U.S., but in the entire world per capita.
"In Louisiana, one out of every 55 persons are incarcerated. Comparably, Maine is the lowest with one in every 238."
The Lafayette Parish Correctional Center, where John Howard died, has a capacity of 954 inmates, and is at or near capacity almost all the time, according to the sheriff.
The total number of inmates who pass through each year is not stated.

(Art Exhibit)
Works from Fred Liongoren and Daniel Aligaen
22 February, 6:00pm – 9:00pm
Looking for Juan Artspace
Serendra, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig
presented by CANVAS
Exhibit Info
In the heady days of 1986, EDSA represented hope, change, and possibility. It united Filipinos, captured the imagination of the world, and represented a proud high point in Philippine history.
Today, 25 years removed, EDSA still represents hope – but the hope is challenged, strained, if not shattered for many. Some of us still cling to the dream, others have cast it off as a mirage. It remains an important point in our history. But, the point of it all – meaningful, progressive change that benefits everyone – remains elusive.
There is, of course, the future, which will now be increasingly traversed by Filipinos who were not even born, or who may have been too young to understand what was going on back in 1986. What do they… what will they… think of EDSA? Not having lived through the moment, can they truly appreciate the lessons and difficult challenges that EDSA carries, and will they ever be in a position to even judge its success or failure?
It is this generational disconnect between those of us who were there, and those of us who are often only told, "if only you had been there!" – and between the promise of 1986 and the reality that confronts us today 25 years after – that Looking for Juan seeks to bridge through Mga Kuwentong EDSA.
This modest art exhibition is a two-man interaction between Fred Liongoren (an multi-awarded and highly respected artist, and a veteran of EDSA), and Daniel Aligaen (an artist at the start of his career, and also present in EDSA if only as an unborn baby in his then pregnant mother's womb).
Mga Kuwentong EDSA opens with cocktails on February 22, 2011 at 6pm at the Looking for Juan Artspace in Serendra, Bonificio Global City, Taguig.

Summer sport: Fed watching . . .
WASHINGTON (CBS.MW) -- It's happened about every eight weeks for the past year: The Federal Open Market Committee meets to consider the mixed signals coming from the economy and decides no action is needed. And then the speculation begins again for the next meeting: Will the FOMC raise interest rates to stop inflation or will the Fed let the economy go?
The cycle begins again this coming week with just a couple of important economic numbers to add summer fire to the debate.
Holiday doldrums for market . . .
NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Technology stocks helped lead the U.S. stock market lower on a day that saw the lightest trading volume of the year, ahead of the long holiday weekend. Markets are closed Monday in observance of Memorial Day. The Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +1.38% declined 17.93 points, or 0.2 percent, to 9114.44. "You have to be concerned with the market's deteriorating breadth," said Charles Payne,market analyst at Wall Street Strategies. "Yet when you see stocks like Dell, Intel, and Microsoft coming down as hard as they've come down in the last couple of weeks, and the Dow is still only 100 points off its high, it shows there's an underlying amount of resiliency to the market."
Pfizer's PFE, +0.14% Viagra under scrutiny in six deaths . . .
WASHINGTON (AP) -- The rush to embrace Viagra may be causing some men to overlook a major potential risk: The potency pill could pose serious problems for men who have to take heart medication such as nitroglycerine.

Also, paramedics in some cities have begun asking heart patients if they are using Viagra before emergency crews administer heart medication.

Justice wants 'open skies' before airline merger . . .
WASHINGTON -- The Justice and Transportation Departments and American Airlines say they want to end the restrictions on air service between the United States and the United Kingdom before American can coordinate services with British Airways. The Justice Department weighed in, urging U.S. transportation officials to reject the alliance until the two countries eliminate government-imposed restrictions on flights and prices between the two countries, a policy known as ``open skies.'' The Justice Department also said other airlines also should be given enough takeoff and landing slots to run 24 additional daily round trips between London's Heathrow Airport and cities in the United States.

Edward Jones analyst William Fiala told CBS.Marketwatch.com NBC's plan makes sense. "Something's going to have to change," he said, "because they're going to have to make huge investments over the next decade if the networks are going to digital, and I think they are."
Strong shuffles portfolio managers . . .
NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- Strong Capital Management Inc. named a few changes on its portfolio-management team. Mary Lisanti manager of the Strong Small Cap Fund (SCAPX) SCAPX, +0.92% and co-manager along with Jeff Bernstein of the Strong Mid Cap Fund (SMDCX ) SMDC have both left the firm. A company spokesperson declined comment on those managers' plans. Replacing them on both funds will be Scott Sindelar, who recently joined Strong from Chicago-based Mid-Continent Capital L.L.C. Sindelar was Mid-Continent's vice president for small company research and co-managed institutional and individual accounts totaling approximately $600 million.
StockWatch: Holiday word for the wise -- patience. . .
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- Several leading Wall Street analysts are talking about the strength of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. What they're saying is a little tricky. It's about possible divergence of major stock indexes. The Dow, which represents only 15 percent of the value of all U.S. stocks, has been trading this spring in a rough range of 8,800 and 9,200. Yet many stocks are slipping even though the blue-chip U.S. stock indexes, the world's biggest companies, look sound. What's a good investor to do?
Moses: Fund manager has tools for gauging markets . . .
LOS ANGELES -- At my firm, Portfolio Advisory Services, we employ a risk assessment model called the "Five Market Principles." The model incorporates market indicators broken down into five categories. Over time, these indicators have proven helpful in determining stock market direction. At the beginning of the year, the model, along with our momentum confirmation tool, signaled a strong market advance. In the last few weeks however, we have seen significant deterioration in many of the components of the model.
Kellner: Bond market has it all wrong . . .
NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- How come the bond markets fell on news that the Federal Reserve was worried about inflation? I always thought inflation was the main concern of bond buyers as well. Participants should have pushed up prices on word that the Fed adopted a bias toward tightening its monetary policy back in March, for such a move would tend to safeguard the value of their principal, as well as the buying power of their interest coupons.
London Calling: U.K.'s information tech stocks soar . . .
LONDON (CBS.MW) -- London?s information technology stocks are hot, as investors have latched on to the same high-tech enthusiasm that has long powered U.S. markets. Since the beginning of the year, the FTSE IT index of computer-related stocks has risen 66 percent vs. only a 16 percent rise in the benchmark FTSE 100. Part of the success has stemmed from the launch of the 28-share FTSE IT index, which created demand for index constituents among fundmanagers. ?A lot of large caps are at a premium because institutional investors can?t put too much money into the smaller shares,? said Coleen Kaiser, an analyst at BA Robertson Stephens International.
Smart Modular hdco leaves some clueless . . .
LOS ANGELES (CBS.MW) -- Computer components manufacturer Smart Modular Technology Inc. (SMOD) smod plunged 36 percent Friday after warning it will miss earnings forecasts. The company saw its shares lose 7 3/4 to 13 7/8. The stock hit a 52-week high of 44 5/8 last October 2. Smart Modular, which makes memory chips and other electronic components, warned it won't meet analysts' earnings expectations for the third or fourth quarters. For the clueless investor Stone said, "Smart Modular is a leading supplier of memory modules and in the long-term will be one of the leaders."
Soapbox: Merger madness. . .
NEW YORK (CBS.MW) -- The pace of mergers and acquisitions doesn't show any sign of slowing, and investors are cheering many of the mega deals along. Yet not everyone thinks consolidation is a healthy trend. With 38 years at Shell Oil, including a stretch as head of planning, behind him, Arie de Gues has come to the conclusion that most mergers don't work. His book, The Living Company (published by Harvard Business School Press), received the 1997 Book prize from the Financial Times for the most insightful business book of the year.
Zapman: Solving Micro-problems . . .
SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) -- With all due respect to lawyers -- which isn't that much -- Zapman thinks this Microsoft thing has gotten completely out of hand. If Bill Gates is right, consumers are the losers because the government is holding back innovation. If the government is right, then consumers are losers because Bill Gates is wrong. Either way, consumers lose. Oh, you think one side or the other will prevail, and that consumers in the end will win. Yeah, right.

Just How DNS Functions – Secret Behind Surfing Internet Pages
Its primary feature is to equate the alpha domain name got it right into the internet browser to numerical IP (Web Procedure) address. A regular IP address takes the symbols like 192.168.1.254 where the numbers could be anything varying from 0 to 255.
Comprehending the Requirement
Every site we see has a various IP address and also as it includes decimal symbols, it is never ever simple to get them right into memory. Rather than numbers, it is less complicated for us to bear in mind words. This has to do with a domain which is videotaped by DNS through mappings in addition to IP addresses.
The web server name is normally understood where you organize your websites and also based on the domain name enrollment for various web hosting web servers. The key and also second names are recognized with the assistance of DNS web server.
Functioning Concept of DNS
Both standard parts of DNS are "Nameserver" as well as "Resolver". Functioning of DNS is generally regulated by these 2 parts as well as DNS complies with the technique of Caching for its smooth procedure.
Nameserver has actually been better split right into 2 components particularly "Moms and dad Nameserver" as well as "Your Own Nameserver". When the moms and dad nameserver responds back with the defined names of the nameservers you offered and also the remainder is the feature of the resolver.
You could check out the Nameservers choice in Reseller Degree as well as come up with a brand-new nameserver. Reaching your "domain name dot com" area using Admin degree and also including the documents for IP addresses like 192.168 l 254 and also 192.168.1.100 as subdomains, makes you all prepared for settling the worths.
Whenever any kind of nameserver accumulates info concerning mapping, the info obtains cached. Any type of supporting inquiries based on exact same mapping makes use of the previously cached outcome, which most definitely decreases the price sustained in the search.
It is as a result vital to evaluate the document of the ping examination as well as see if the circulation of any kind of package loss is normal or constrained to a details duration, prior to a genuine final thought could be attracted.

I'm so glad to show you some behind the scene stuff about my second shoot. I couldn't wait to take my camera again, despite the fact that I love my current job as an assistant, I missed my camera so much.
Anyway, thanks to one of my friend -how great is a social network- I had the chance to collaborate with a make-up artist/hair-dresser for this shoot. Concerning the model, let me introduce you again to Mathilde, who accepted to play the game one more time. Modelling is a whole career, but I must say that Mathilde did pretty well.I decided to have a photoshoot outside -unfortunately, all my equipment is still in Paris- I had to deal with Mother Earth's light and... with the rain. Yeah. It was raining all the time. Sandie the make-up artist had to hold an umbrella above Mathilde to protect her hair and make-up, I wish I had someone who could have taken some pictures of us, 'cause it was quite funny. Well, not so funny for Mathilde, who was in one of my little dress with 7° (Damn weather !)
I wanted to create a different atmosphere from the other photoshoots I did in Paris. I'm keeping the softness in my pictures, but I had prefered adding a cold tone to this story.
Please, feel free to give your opinion !

In the midst of all of the chaos of the unloading or our container, we received a phone call from the appliance store - our refrigerator was downstairs waiting to be installed. What timing!

We are grateful to have our household items and our furniture again - especially our own bed.

Some who think they're "who's who" in Los Angeles are finding they're not. They have not received invitations to designer Giorgio Armani's Jan. 27 party at the Museum of Contemporary Art, which is turning out to be the hottest ticket of the fashion year.
Of course there are no tickets, per se. This is not a fund-raising event, and if you're not on Armani's 300-person guest list, there's no way to beg or buy your way through the door.
MOCA Contribution
"When I give a party, my guests shouldn't have to pay or donate anything," Armani said this week from Milan. So the designer made a contribution to MOCA and will host his hand-picked group of guests.
Some who aren't invited, but think they should have been, are now complaining that "Lee Radziwill must have made up the list in New York," without really knowing who's who in L.A.

Hospitals Buy Physician Practice's, Healthcare Prices Jump/
In recent years, patients have seen the cost of cancer care increase dramatically. Insurance companies like Highmark in Pennsylvania note that nothing is actually being done to improve patient care. Instead, "previously independent oncology clinics and private practices have been acquired by big hospital systems that charge higher rates for chemotherapy drugs."
While the Affordable Care Act was put in place to help patients pay less for inpatient treatment, hospitals –in an effort to meet the expensive demands of 24-hour emergency rooms—found that if they bought up private oncology clinics they could increase their revenue and market share. By doing so, "hospitals are creating networks that give them the power to set prices and ultimately raise costs for private insurers and government programs such as Medicare." We are seeing fewer and fewer independent medical offices and clinics because of this.
Patients end up paying almost twice as much for cancer treatment under this system. For example, "Hercetin, a breast cancer drug from Genentech costs private insurers $2,740 when used in an independent clinic and $5,350 in a hospital outpatient setting, according to an analysis of 2012 claims by PricewaterhouseCoopers' Health Research Institute."
Organizations like the Community Oncology Alliance, and the American Cancer Society's Cancer Action Network, are speaking out about this issue. Steven Weiss, spokesperson for the ACSCAN, reminds us that "long-standing trends like this one continue to threaten patient access to lifesaving care."

On the radio this morning they asked an interesting question, if you were to replace the 4 men of Mt Rushmore with 4 women, who would those women be? It came from a poll on this website.
My first thought was how many people could come up with 4 women? Could you? On my drive to work, I thought about who I would pick. I came up with Eleanor Roosevelt, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Susan B Anthony, and Sojourner Truth. Who would you pick?
I honestly had a hard time coming up with many women. My list totaled probably 8 or 9. Not because there aren't great amazing women to choose from, just that I had a hard time remembering them. I could come up with a bunch of men pretty easily, but women were harder. I did not learn about as many women as I did men during school. In college, I did, since I went to a women's college, but for the other 12 years of my education I did not. You really only focused on women during women's history month. So the names were harder for me to remember.
At lunch, I looked at the poll to see who the winners were. And I read an interesting comment on it that really struck me because I had not even thought of it like this:
"It's a presidential memorial, so it would take a minimum of 32 years to make four women eligible, some of whom would now scarcely be grown-ups. And as of the moment, we don't even seem to be getting started." - Judith Martin
Based on that, how is it after 219 years there is not one single woman that we could put up there?

text: MissJatti 4,466 #1 Posted January 21, 2013 As we all know that there are cryptids all over the world. But to me it seems like North American countries harbor the most crptids, and them cryptids are more scary, frighting, terrifying, more elusive, and to some more than real. Some examples of North American crypids are the sasquatch, mothman, jearsy devil, thunderbirds, godzila (ops thats Japanese) Could there be a connection between the North American cryptids and native Americans/red Indians spirits/myths Could the natives summoned their spirits/myth to drive away the Europeans during or after the trust between the two sides was lost. Are these spirits/myth still loom and we have come to call them cryptids??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My rating: ★★★★★
I purchased six months of Viviscal during my miserable time using TRX2, with the intention of using up all six boxes. I ended up trying Viviscal for about six weeks, on and off, and the reason I didn't complete my treatment period was because I discovered HR23+ during this time, and once I tried HR23+ I never looked back.
From my brief experience using Viviscal, I would say the hair fall did slow down ever so slightly, but I can't confirm this had anything to do with this particular supplement. I was coming off TRX2, therefore the results were hard to identify at the time.
I did not experience any side-effects from using these tablets, which is always a positive thing. However, I do remain sceptical about this product as they have been extremely active in their marketing campaigns with very little evidence from users that this actually works.
I believe, when formulating this supplement, the intentions were good, but Viviscal still has much to prove in a hugely competitive hair loss treatment market.
Here is my full breakdown of Viviscal Man, based over a six week treatment period:
Prevention of hair loss: No clear evidence of hair loss prevention.
Promotion of hair growth: No evidence of new hair growth.
Hair thickness & density: No real change in the appearance of thickness of hair.


text: In 1990, George A. Romero and Dario Argento released Two Evil Eyes, an adaptation of two Edgar Allan Poe stories. In the classic Poe tradition, both tales are about people who do terrible things, and suffer hideous consequences. In the hands of two of horror's greatest filmmakers, they become downright terrifying.
