Publishers Weekly
Completed shortly before his death last year at age 85, this autobiography traces Keel's journey from Illinois poverty to international stardom as a sort of Clark Gable of movie musicals. His singing could, as he puts it, "peel the paint off the walls." Employed as a WWII Douglas Aircraft supervisor, he took vocal training in Los Angeles, sang concert arias and arrived on Broadway in 1945, wowing audiences as Curly in Oklahoma!. Wider acclaim came with MGM musicals (including 1954's Seven Brides for Seven Brothers), followed by touring productions, a club act, dinner theater and TV's Dallas. Keel has an arsenal of amusing anecdotes, but neither he nor mystery writer Spizer were able to bring verve to his prose. Kathryn Grayson and others Keel was close to are only lightly sketched and rarely spring to life. Why so few paragraphs about his lengthy affair with Marilyn Monroe? Even so, fans will be satisfied with this diary-like chronicle, despite its first-draft feel and narrative gaps. 16-page b&w photo insert not seen by PW. (Sept. 25) Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
Only Make Believe: My Life in Show Business
by Howard Keel, Joyce Spizer (With)
This is the deliciously entertaining memoir by the coal miner's son who became an international star of stage, screen, and television. Keel speaks his mind about his many co-stars, including Judy Garland, Betty Hutton, Tammy Grimes and Katherine Greyson, to name a few.

I recently purchased this book. I couldn't put it down until I finished
it. This is a book to get if you want a honest account of his life. He
was very open about the events that shaped his life and career. This is
the book to get if you want to read about "the real Howard Keel"
The best autobiography that I have read about life in the entertainment world.
A frank and honest account of his life. The book is written as he spoke, so that as one reads the pages one feels he is sat there relating the story to you in person. A fascinating and sometimes very moving journey told with great humour. It will not only have you laughing out loud, but will also tug at your heartstrings. The book was so hard to put down, that I read it the weekend I received it.
I could not put this book down once I started it. It is written as though you and Mr. Keel are great friends talking over coffee. Howard shares the most candid details of his amazing life and the most amusing stories that had me laughing until I cried. It left me wishing that I had known him and certainly wishing that I had discovered his talent much sooner than I did. This book will fascinate readers whether you are a fan of Howard Keel or not. I highly recommend it!
Many times when you have a long wait for an autobiography, the result simply doesn¿t live up to the anticipation. Not so with Only Make Believe, I¿m happy to report. Howard Keel began his life as Harry Clifford Keel, the son of a Gillespie, Ill coal miner, on April 13, 1919. For anyone familiar with Mr. Keel¿s interviews, you will recognize his distinctive narration as he takes you though ups and downs of his life. And what a life it was. From an auditorium in Pasadena to Broadway and London¿s West End, the sound stages of MGM, the tent theaters of summer stock and the grassy meadows of Southfork Ranch, Mr. Keel¿s story will make you laugh, cry and keep you thoroughly entertained from start to finish. There is simply not a dull moment in this book. There are wonderful stories about the people we¿ve all grown up admiring and enjoying: Frank Sinatra, John Raitt, Mario Lanza, Anthony Quinn, John Wayne, Ben Hogan, Larry Hagman, Linda Gray, Barbara Bel Geddes, Prince Rainier and many, many others. But some of the best stories are of people you¿ve never heard of, great characters both in and out of the show business world. There are also stories about the theater itself, where glamour and glitter step aside for hard work and sheer guts. The closeness and camaraderie of an excellent cast and the pain of leaving them; difficult directors and inconsiderate audiences; working hurt, sick and numb from Novocain; mediocre parts taken just to pay the bills. All of this and more is covered, and through it fluently winds the thread of Mr. Keel¿s personal life as it goes from trouble and pain to, at last, great happiness. I could spend hours telling you how and why I enjoyed this book. Having read dozens of memoirs in the past few years, I have no doubt that this book is the single best I¿ve read. Simply put, it was a treat. I highly recommend it to not only fans of Mr. Keel, but to anyone who wants a taste of what real show business is without all the modern day Hollywood glamour and mega-bucks.

Photographer Lance Rosenfeld was out in Texas City, Texas
snapping photos of a BP refinery for the website ProPublica when
things went terribly wrong.
According to MSNBC, Rosenfeld was working on
a story for PBS and ProPublica when a BP employee began
following him and shortly thereafter, local authorities
confronted Rosenfeld and questioned him.
MSNBC: Rosenfield was released after officials looked
through the pictures he had taken and took down his date of
birth, Social Security number and other personal information, the
photographer said. The information was turned over to the BP
security guard who said this was standard procedure, ProPublica
quoted Rosenfield as saying.
Rosenfield, a Texas-based freelance photographer, said he was
followed by a BP employee after taking a picture on a public road
near the refinery, and then cornered by two police cars at a gas
station. The officials told Rosenfield they had the right to look
at the pictures taken near the refinery and if he did not comply
he would be "taken in," the photographer said according to
Unfortunately for the press, this should come as no surprise. BP
has been anything but transparent since the April 20th Deepwater
Horizon explosion.
Other journalists have also been confronted by BP
employees/contractors and told to stop investigating as
Currently, Rosenfeld is free and ProPublica is backing up his
first-amendment right to freedom of the press.

Adjusted EBITDA Increases to $3.2 million, Revenue Increases to $42.9 million as Restructuring Continues
DENVER, May 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- MusclePharm Corporation (OTCQB: MSLP) ("MusclePharm" or the "Company"), a scientifically-driven, performance lifestyle sports nutrition Company, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2016.
Operating and Financial Highlights for First Quarter 2016
- Adjusted EBITDA increased to $3.2 million;
- Net revenues increased to $42.9 million, evidencing the strength of the brand;
- Gross profit increased to $15.2 million and gross profit margin was 35%;
- Net loss was $6.6 million, including severance benefits for a former executive.
Additionally, during April the Company signed a definitive agreement for the sale of its wholly-owned subsidiary, BioZone Laboratories, Inc. ("BioZone") for a purchase price of approximately $9,800,000, subject to certain post-closing adjustments. "I am pleased to report that MusclePharm continues to show improvement in almost all facets of its business," said Ryan Drexler, MusclePharm's Interim Chief Executive Officer, Interim President and Chairman of the Board of Directors. "While we still haven't completely turned the corner, we believe that we are making good progress in executing the restructuring plan and stabilizing the company."
The previously announced and pending sale of BioZone is the latest step in MusclePharm's restructuring plan, according to Mr. Drexler. "We believe that the Company is in a healthier financial position to grow the MusclePharm brand, while addressing outstanding debt obligations."
Financial Results for First Quarter 2016
Net revenue increased $1.8 million, or 4.5%, sequentially to $42.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, compared to $41.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015. Net revenue increased primarily due to customer reorders of new products introduced in the fourth quarter 2015 and continued sales of existing products.
Gross profit for the first quarter 2016 was $15.2 million, or 35% of revenue, compared to $14.6 million, which also was 35% of revenue in the fourth quarter 2015.
Operating expenses for the first quarter 2016 decreased to $21.0 million, compared to $23.6 million for the fourth quarter 2015 as we continue to execute the restructuring plan and focus on optimizing our cost structure.
Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $3.2 million compared to $0.8 million for the fourth quarter 2015. Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation, amortization, interest, taxes, stock-based compensation, restructuring charges and other expenses.
Validating management's successful execution of the restructuring plan which was implemented in August 2015, net loss for the first quarter 2016 was $6.6 million, which is an improvement of $3.1 million compared to the fourth quarter 2015 which had a net loss of $9.7 million.
Conference Call Information
As a result of management's focus on continuing to execute the restructuring plan, improve liquidity and complete the sale of BioZone, there will be no first quarter conference call to discuss results.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial results calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the earnings release contains non-GAAP financial measures adjusted for income taxes, depreciation and amortization of property and equipment, amortization of intangible assets, provision for doubtful accounts, amortization of prepaid stock compensation, amortization of prepaid sponsorship fees, stock based compensation, issuance of common stock warrants, issuance of common stock related to a guarantee of debt, restructuring and other charges. Management believes that the non-GAAP measures used in this release provide investors with important perspectives into the Company's ongoing business performance. The non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by the Company should not be considered a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, and the financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements should be carefully evaluated. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies. All financial data is presented on a GAAP basis except where the Company indicates its presentation is on a non-GAAP basis. Set forth below are reconciliations of non-GAAP net income (loss) to the Company's reported GAAP net income (loss).

IDC Announces 2015 Asia Pacific Top Smart City Winners – Singapore and Mainland China as the Big Winners
19 Oct 2015
Singapore, 19 October, 2015 – IDC Asia/Pacific announced today the most outstanding Smart City Initiatives in Asia Pacific excluding Japan (APeJ) in 14 Smart City functional eServices following the launch of the AP Smart City Evolution Index competition last July 2015. Singapore and Mainland China are the big winners, having topped 4 and 3 categories, respectively.
The complete list of winners in the 14 categories are:
IDC Government Insights went through a rigorous three-phased benchmarking exercise to determine the Top Smart City initiative winners for 2015. These included identifying and cataloging the key Smart City projects in Asia/Pacific by IDC Analysts across APeJ, online voting to determine public opinion, and the assessment of an International Advisory Council.
Last August 2015, a comprehensive public survey was conducted with 500 unique entries submitted from the APeJ region focusing on the shortlisted cities competing in the 14 categories. This was followed by a voting session by an international panel of senior IDC analysts from the US and EMEA regions.
The winners of the AP Smart City Evolution Index competition will be recognized at the 2015 Asia Pacific Leading Smart City and Vendor Awards Gala Dinner to be held at the 2015 Asia Pacific Smart City Development Forum on November 17, 2015 in Shenzhen, China.

"OVERWHELMING" was the most popular adjective heard during the All-60's Reunion on October 11th at the fairgrounds in Paso Robles. The most popular phrases were: YOU LOOK GREAT! I REMEMBER WHEN . . . WHATEVER HAPPENED TO . . . and I'M STILL WORKING. The most popular attire was: STILL DRESSED TO
KILL FRUMPY BUT CHIC CHIC BUT FRUMPY TOO OLD TO CARE It was nice of Paso to throw a parade and bean feed for us earlier in the day. The weather was wonderfully beautiful --- cool, clear and comfy compared to other years' overcast, over-wet, over-hot or "I'll be glad when it's just OVER!" Nothing spoils a parade more than umbrellas on a rainy day or fried horse poop on Spring Street. |

ARROW Data Mining Developments at the 17th International Conference TPDL
One of the latest ARROW System developments will be discussed at the 17th International Conference on Theory and Practice of Digital Libraries held on the 22nd – 26th of September 2013 in Malta.
Nuno Freire, Interoperability Architect at The European Library, will present his paper Word Occurrence Based Extraction of Work Contributors from Statements of Responsibility. Freire's paper explains the development of a system that extracts the names of contributors of a work contained in the free text strings of a bibliographic record, in addition to the contributors' names extracted from the structured data fields of the record.
As a result of this new technique, ARROW is now able to more effectively identify the rightholders of a book, thus improving the process when determining the copyright status of a work. This is one of the many ongoing developments to improve the ARROW System.
Freire will present his paper on the 24th September during the conference session devoted to mining and extraction technologies.

Just got a an HTC Incredible, and it is just that. I love it and the Android OS, I have a Macbook Pro so any suggestions on Apps for any reason or that good for Mac owners would be awesome! Not even sure where to start.
Doubletwist! (Download for your Macbook Pro...I haven't figured out if the phone app is useful yet) It lets you browse all your music (even iTunes playlists), photos, the Android Marketplace, and Amazon mp3 store, and it will sync any of that stuff up to your phone. Also bTunes is a music player for the phone that I find much easier to use than the default Android Music app. I couldn't figure out how to just play entire playlists with the latter.

My late father, Floyd V. Amoresano, was a truly extraordinary New Jersey business attorney and trial lawyer whose professional capabilities, dedication and reputation often prompted other attorneys
to honor him as a "lawyer's lawyer", and inspired me, in turn, to try following in his formidable footsteps. Unfortunately, cancer stole him from us when he was only 62, while I was still completing
college at Fordham University in New York, and before he could share my joy over having been accepted to study the Law at Seton Hall University, the proud alma mater to so many of our fine lawyers
and jurists here in New Jersey. Today, nearly 30 years since his passing, it is not for me to say whether I possess even a portion of my father's professional qualities. It is only for me to say,
with great pride and deep humility, that I possess his good name, and am still moved, by the memory of him, to keep trying. After studying at Seton Hall, I was afforded the additional honor of
serving a full year internship as legal assistant to the Honorable Peter Ciolino, one of the most talented and respected Superior Court Judges in the great history of New Jersey's now internationally
renowned system of justice. As such, I was privileged to enjoy the invaluable experience of witnessing and assisting one of New Jersey 's finest jurists in action as His Honor presided over a wide
variety of trials, hearings, applications and conferences with one objective always in mind: the fair and impartial administration of justice for every client and counselor who appeared in his
courtroom. In the process, Judge Ciolino tried to teach me, by the priceless power of his good example, that the search for justice requires much more than merely grasping the law and the facts. It
requires a real grasp of people, and their very real problems, of patience, and above all, compassion. After 22 years, these are lessons I'm still learning today, which is one of the reasons why we
call our profession "the practice" of law. My good fortune did not end with that internship, for I spent the next seven years serving as an associate to the incomparable Jerome A. Vogel, a New Jersey
trial lawyer and business attorney so feared by other lawyers, respected by Judges, and admired by jurors that his mere presence in "the pit" of a courtroom was palpable to everyone who dared draw
near. Lending vital contrast to the lessons of Judge Ciolino, Jerry taught me, from the perspective of a zealous advocate, that the client's best interests always come first, that the law is no
substitute for frank and frequent communication with that client, and that thorough preparation is the hallmark of success, particularly when dealing with complex business disputes. Looking back, I
know now that Jerry's "presence" came from complete confidence, his confidence from preparation, and his preparation from a work ethic driven by the sheer desire to do his clients justice. Soon after
growing out from under Jerry's wing, the New Jersey Supreme Court saw fit to formally Certify me as a Civil Trial Attorney, a designation held by less than three (3%) percent of all lawyers presently
licensed to practice in this State, and one which I've had the honor and privilege of holding for the last fourteen (14) years running. So I went to work in that capacity as the senior civil trial
associate for a firm that handled a high volume of serious personal injury cases, including medical malpractice, auto accidents, burn injury cases and wrongful death actions. During my four (4) year
tenure there, I was responsible for the successful management and resolution of a rolling inventory of 100 or more cases per year, earning "Best Producer" and "Top Grossing Associate" awards from my
employers in the process. But despite my success in and out of the courtroom, I gradually became dissatisfied with my ability to deliver a consistently high level of quality and care to each and
every client. You see, the more volume that a lawyer has to handle, the more difficult it can become to avoid having clients and their concerns get filtered or lost in a maze of case screeners,
secretaries, paralegals and associates. So I started my own practice in order to sharpen my focus on fewer clients, give them my undivided attention, and try to do their cases justice. I've been on
my own for nearly (10) years now, and can honestly say that I wouldn't want to have it any other way. Carrying a small inventory of less than thirty (30) cases at any given time, I've been able to
keep in close personal touch with each of my clients, care for their concerns, and help to deliver them a fair measure of justice in the process. When you call, you'll reach my cell or direct office
line, and I will personally answer your call, or personally and promptly retrieve and respond to your voicemail message. When you send me an e-mail or a letter, it will come directly to me, and no
one else, and will receive a prompt reply, from me and only me. Please click on the following link to learn more about my practice:. Hackensack New Jersey Medical Malpractice Lawyer

Canada's Targets
Canada's Pan-Canadian Framework emission reduction targets still match the Harper-era target for 2030 (30%). However, according to Article 4 of the Paris Agreement, it is possible to strengthen the targets
If Canada follows the path of our targets, Canada's cumulative emissions will exceed the population-based share of the global carbon budget for remaining under 2 degrees C before 2025 and under 3 degrees C before 2050.
According to the Western Resources Institute (WRI):
In 2011, Canada's per-capita emissions were higher than those of the US, Russia and most other developed countries (for some reason, WRI did not include Australia).
Our charts illustrate Canada's Pan-Canadian emission reduction targets and the major differences between them and what is necessary to meet our commitments in the Paris Agreement. There are two sets of charts for carbon budgets and two for emission reduction targets/limits. See below for the number of years if we continue to emit at the current rate.
The following charts represent what the necessary emission reductions need to be for Canada's population-based shares of the global carbon budgets. The chart for the carbon budgets also include emissions-based shares of the global carbon budgets. Canada's targets will lead to cumulative emissions greater than all budgets except the emissions-based budget for remaining below 2 degrees C.
Click on the charts to see them full size
The emission reduction targets/limits for remaining below 1.5, 2 or 3 degrees C (compared to 2005 emissions of 747 MtCO2e)
126 MtCO2e
618 MtCO2e
523 MtCO2e
506 MtCO2e
178 MtCO2e
149 MtCO2e
How many years of our budgets (from 2016) will Canada have if we do not reduce our annual emissions?
Population-based sharing
Emissions-based sharing
65 years seems great, but only if you think it is OK for global temperatures to increase by up to 3 degrees and for Canada have an unfair share of the global emissions (based on our current emissions).
According to Climate Action Tracker:
On 15 May 2015, Canada submitted its Intended Nationally Determined Contribution (INDC) (pdf), proposing an economy-wide target to reduce GHG emissions to 30% below 2005 levels by 2030. Canada has indicated that it may also use international creditsto meet its target. Considering the upward trajectory of the current policy projection against the pledge trajectory, Canada would need to use a large quantity of international credits to meet its target.
Canada intends to use a "net-net" approach to account for LULUCF emissions and a production approach to account for harvested wood products. Accounting for Harvested Wood Products (HWPs) must be performed in a consistent and compatible manner across countries so that accounting of imported and exported HWPs is complete and emissions are not excluded from inventories. It excludes emissions from natural disturbances (e.g. forest fires and insect outbreaks).
In its INDC communication, Canada does not quantify the impact of these accounting rules on the emissions level for compliance in 2030. According to our best estimate based on available data, the net-net accounting approach will generate 126 MtCO2e of credits for Canada in 2030 (see assumptions for further details). Using LULUCF credits weakens the INDC, as these credits can be used to offset emissions increases in other sectors such as energy and industry. We estimate this target is a reduction of 13% below 2005 levels of industrial GHG emissions. This is equivalent to an increase of 8% above 1990 levels.
Canada's NDC states, "Canada may also use international mechanisms to achieve the target, subject to robust systems that deliver real and verified emissions reductions." Canada seems to believe in market-based solutions to our otherwise inadequate targets.
Does this mean financing mitigation, adaptation and loss and damage in developing countries? According to Civil Society Equity Review
As a supplement to their domestic INDC's, each developed country party should set a target to provide the means of implementation to developing countries to address the emissions reductions gap. Developed countries should pledge to work with developing countries to implement the additional actions that are needed. Significantly scaled-up public finance for adaptation and to address loss and damage are also imperative, given the significant impacts that are already being felt, and the escalating impacts that are expected.
The diamonds represent the following:
732 MtCO2e (2014 emissions)
523 MtCO2e (30% below 2005 by 2030)
149 MtCO2e (80% below 2005 by 2050)
The green line represents Canada's population-based limits for keeping global temperatures from increasing by more than 1.5 degrees C which is the global temperature increase that Canada pledged to pursue in the Paris Agreement ("pursuing efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels")
The yellow line represents Canada's limits for keeping global temperatures from increasing by more than 2 degrees C. This is the maximum global temperature increase that Canada pledged in the Paris Agreement ("holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels")
The red line represents the limits for preventing temperatures from rising above 3 degrees C. This global temperature increase would lead to climate chaos, and we pledged to do our share to prevent this.
Population-based share is based on Canada's share of the global population (0.5%).
Emissions-based share is based on Canada's share of global emissions (1.7%)

Have you noticed that businesses that are starting to transition to a virtual working situation are changing the future of businesses? The days of long commutes and late hours at the office are fading as the future of businesses operating from homes and running on unusual schedules are in.
These businesses no longer congregate at a physical office with their team but rather a virtual office in which their team all works from their own remote locations. Rather than arriving at 8am and heading home at 6pm from the work day, workers are choosing their schedules and being available online at certain scheduled points in the day for meetings and group projects.
Along with working through smart devices, video conferences, email and telephones, the virtual office is much deeper in how it does business and many are start to see how this exciting way to do business is changing the business world for the better.
What is the virtual office revolution all about?
Virtual offices somewhat began from McAfee's realization that blogging, group messaging and wikis could be used for a bigger potential. These platforms could create a chance for digital collaboration that has never been done before.
While it didn't take off right when McAfee brought this idea to light, since this time around 2006, more knowledge-intensive businesses started depending on social-networking software, blogs and wiki-style tools that allow for collaboration without much limit. Groups and communities could now form easily to spread knowledge and the virtual office is now changing the way office work happens going forward.
Not everything will change in the workplace however, as the hierarchical system will remain with virtual offices even among the newest, youngest, tech-friendly startups that want to appear hip and fresh. They will continue choosing to setup their organizations in this traditional way with the modernization of working digitally.
In addition, the idea of the "water cooler" or the need for team members to communicate and socialize is not going anywhere. Humans are naturally social and the office is their main source of social interaction. These concepts won't change as virtual offices become more prevalent.
Why virtual offices are improving the way we work
In addition to offering your team to work from the comfort of their home with their flexible schedule, technology is changing the way we work in that some of the mundane processes behind a physical office disappear. Filing, make copies and speaking to colleagues was always a time-consuming process as now, everything is digital and instant.
People rely on computers for everything now from airline reservations to shopping while those were one time tasks that required a physical, time-consuming process to achieve. The working world is now changing to allow everything to happen digitally which is allowing more time to focus on complicated and knowledge-based work. Advancements like voice recognition and automatic translation have been part of cutting back on wasted time.
It sounds great but are there any drawbacks for virtual offices?
There are some challenges with virtual offices, like the risk of a security hack or not having a solid connection when moving around for work. When team members want to travel and work from new locations, it's not always a guaranteed internet connection.
If someone were to use an unsecure connection, it could risk security as well. You also have to get your team and customers to adapt to your new technologies especially as many professionals prefer the "ancient" way of doing business compared to these modernized methods.
With the right people and the right attitudes, you can run your office virtually as long as you don't need an actual office or store to offer the product or service.

IRS Rule May Allow Political Targeting
Obama can't wait to use this loophole!
Check it out:
Barack Obama's Internal Revenue Service was caught this year targeting conservative groups with harassment that included invasive probes into the content of prayers and unwarranted delays.
That issue is being worked out in court. But the IRS, nevertheless, remains on the attack, proposing new regulations that would silence the president's critics.
Mathew Staver, founder and chief counsel of Liberty Counsel, said that after "being caught intentionally targeting conservative groups in the prior two elections, now the president wants his IRS to totally silence the voices of his political adversaries."
New rules proposed in the Federal Register, Staver said, are "designed to silence and greatly restrict the activities of Liberty Counsel Action and other 501 (c) 4 nonprofit organizations during the upcoming election year."

BALI, Indonesia — BALI, Indonesia (AP) — Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and other Asia-Pacific leaders took center stage Monday at a regional summit after President Barack Obama was a no-show due to the U.S. government shutdown.
Leaders of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum, meeting amid tight security on this tropical island in eastern Indonesia, urged faster work on reforms meant to break down trade barriers and improve competitiveness.
Abe, struggling to extricate Japan from two decades of stagnation, pledged to move ahead with reforms he has promised as part of his "Abenomics" economic strategy.
"It's not easy for a country stuck in deflation for 15 years to get out," Abe said. He promised measures to ensure that an increase in Japan's sales tax, which has driven consumer confidence to record lows, does not derail the economic recovery he has nurtured since taking office last December.
"Now we can wipe out the doom and gloom atmosphere in the Japanese economy," Abe said.
Speaking to a gathering of business and political leaders, he also sought to reassure other Asian countries, especially those that suffered colonization and invasion before and during World War II, over Japan's efforts to upgrade its military.
"We are aspiring to become a pro-active contributor to stability and security in the world as a country that observes international norms," Abe said.
The reference to international norms also appeared aimed at China, whose naval incursions into waters near disputed islands in the East China Sea have angered Japan. Relations between the two biggest Asian economies remain chilly with scant sign either is willing to compromise on the islands issue.
APEC's 21 nations and territories have wide disparities in wealth and development, ranging from tiny Brunei to the U.S. and China, the world's two biggest economies. The region accounts for more than 3 billion people and over half of global GDP. The annual APEC gathering gives regional leaders the opportunity to thrash out policies to encourage trade and business cooperation, while also tackling country-to-country issues in meetings on the sidelines. It also is a boon for this year's host Bali, which has struggled to rebuild its tourism industry following terrorist attacks in 2002 and 2005 that killed over 200 people.
For Obama, it was an opportunity to underline renewed U.S. attention to Asia as a counterbalance to China's increased economic, political and military clout. But that message was undermined by the U.S. government shutdown forcing Obama to cancel his trip to Indonesia and three other countries. Later Monday, attention will focus on addresses by the leaders of two key U.S. rivals, Russia's Vladimir Putin and China's Xi Jingping. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will try to fill the vacuum left by Obama's change of plans.
Meanwhile, the dozen countries involved in the U.S.-led Trans-Pacific Partnership were haggling over their plans for a free trade area they hope will eventually encompass the entire region.
A draft declaration for the APEC summit, obtained over the weekend, also calls for at least partial progress on stalled talks on dismantling trade barriers under the World Trade Organization.
Indonesian trade minister Gita Wirjawan, whose country is not involved in the U.S.-led free trade initiative but is part of a separate regional grouping, said Indonesia is not against the Pacific pact but needs more time to decide whether to join it.
"We need to evaluate whether it will be net beneficial to us," Wirjawan told The Associated Press. "We're observing."
Indonesia's garment industry suffered after a free trade arrangement with Beijing opened its market to cheaper exports from China,
"Yes, there has been a deficit but let's not forget the fact that every dollar of trade, whichever way, involves the creation of jobs," Wirjawan said. "I think that fact that China is our biggest trading partner is very, very important for Indonesia."
He said that during a recent visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping, the two sides signed agreements on joint ventures amounting to about $22 billion-$23 billion.
"They're real joint venture agreements and capital that will be poured into sectors that are value-added for the Indonesia story," he said.
APEC's eventual goal is a "free trade area of the Pacific" — still a remote possibility given the various territorials issues and other differences dividing its nearly two-dozen members.
Wirjawan said there are grounds to think that people believe more in the existence of UFOs than the benefits of free trade. For developing countries particularly, where some industries lack the competitive sophistication of those in rich countries, it is easier to argue for free trade when there are visible signs of its benefits such as factories and jobs, he said.
Associated Press writers Niniek Karmini and Stephen Wright contributed.

A still photo of "Inseparable" features three leads. [Photo: douban]
Dayyan Eng, the director of "Waiting Alone", revealed yesterday on his Sina Weibo account, China's most popular microblogging platform, that his latest film "Inseparable" is set to hit the big screen very soon, mtime.com reports.In a telephone interview, Dayyan Eng stated he was excited about the film's impending release. Prior to the release date, cast and crew members will partake in an intense promotional campaign.
After withdrawing from the industry for around 5 years following his 2004 film "Waiting Alone," Dayyan Eng began shooting "Inseparable" in 2009. Starring Oscar winner Kevin Spacey, actress Gong Beibi and actor Daniel Wu, the film was completed at the beginning of 2011. The film was showcased and received positive feedback at the 16th Busan International Film Festival held in October. However, since then, there has been no official word on the timing of the film's mainland release.
Dayyan Eng posted on his weibo account yesterday afternoon, stating, "I finally got word of the film's release date from the investors. 'Inseparable' will be released soon. Daniel Wu, Gong Beibi and I are preparing to promote the film together. It's been said that the release date will be announced within the next few days. Hope they announce it as soon as possible. We've been waiting so long. Thank you for your patience and support."
One industry insider believes that "Inseparable" will be released on mainland cinema screens some time in May.

6PM.com review
I love this site. It has a great variety of shoes for every member of the family. The search engine is great allowing you to look for shoes your size and the color you like. The prices are great,and with the many orders I placed, I was always pleased with the time it took the package to arrive. The only downside I could think of is that many (many) times I got disappointed they did not carry the size I needed. I guess you can't have it all.
6pm rocks for cool shoes
6pm is a great online retailer and has the best daily, sometimes weekly deals!
~Correct sizing?
I have ordered many shoes from 6pm and returned almost the same amount. I don't know if their shoes are seconds or just plain sized wrong? I just can't seem to get a pair that fit correct. 6pm does have fantastic sales so if you are willing to take the risk of the shoes fitting you or not and they do happen to fit, you'll more than likely find yourself getting a more than excellent DEAL.
Good Prices
The prices at this store can't be beat for the selection they have. I have been quite happy with shoes I have bought from they. However, I would like to see more size 5 and 5.5 shoes for women.
I like 6pm.com for its good prices, easy to navigate website, and quick shipping.
no help from customer service
I am ordering shoes for kids and don't know which brand fits best, so want to order several styles and return all but the best fitting. 6pm.com looked worth trying because it seems to have a large selection of manufacturers and styles -- but because you have to pay return shipping I thought the customer service dept could give me guidance. Perhaps they can but they did not.
Instead of putting me in touch with someone who could help me figure out relevant information - like what is the shipping weight of items I'd like to purchase (so I can price the cost to return them), the customer service staff spent lots of his email telling me his name and such but saying nothing more than that I should check shipping rates on my own. Duh! That's the whole point of first trying to find out about the product - so I can do just that in order to see if the savings end up actually adding up or not. Maybe I will go to zappos.com for their free return policy or just give up on my order and going to a store near me instead.
You Snooze You Lose
This sight is brilliant!
I love all the shoes I buy from 6pm.com.The fit is great and the colors are exactly as shown.The price really is the best.Before I purchase,I check all the other internet sites,such as Amazon and Zappo's for a better price and none have ever been less.Delivery is fast.Returns are so easy too.
Review of 6pm.com
I ordered a pair of madden girl heels that I absolutely love and have recieved several compliments on. Everything about 6pm.com was easy. The prices are great and I love finding such great deals! I'm about to buy some sperry's today!

ReplyDeleteThe first thing I'd say when I got off the plane in Hawaii is "Aloha!"
I loved "Blue" and my entire Book Club did, too, but never read "Healing Waters."Aloha, Joyce! As always, you are an inspiration. Great interview with Joan Edwards. And a great photo of you, too!

Even the war on weeds is early this year
Black Swallow-wort, specifically. This is the weed I regard as pure evil. This is the weed that, left unchecked, fills hillsides with choking vines. This is the weed I wage war on every year. Just like last year, a few shoots turn up here, there, and within a couple days, everywhere.
This spring has been so warm, everything has come up and flowered at least two weeks early. You want to know what else came up two weeks early? The weeds! Comments Off on Even the war on weeds is early this year

Last assault on the weeds
The evil Black Swallow-wort thinks it's so clever, dying down and hiding under the fallen leaves. Too bad for the weed it forgot that leaves falling would reveal where it's trying to reach up into the crab apple trees and drag them down. So I plunged into the fray one last time, wielding my deadly digging tool. I traced the worst of the evil-doers down to their roots and dug them up.
And with that, it's the end of the fighting season. Time to declare victory and go inside.
Get that ragweed!
If you don't know what you're looking at, ragweed is a pretty plant. Elegant lacy leaves. Demure spires of nearly invisible flowers. Spewing pollen. But this is one of my few no-tolerance plants. What really infuriates me about ragweed is that it flowers at the same time as one of the great bee-feeders — goldenrod — and goldenrod takes the blame for the itchy noses of summer.
Sorry, bees, go back to eating goldenrod pollen. Goldenrod bears lots of beautiful yellow sprays that don't bother anyone. And you humans, get to work! Do your friends and neighbors a favor: go on ragweed patrol and pull it out.
Sneaky Star-of-Bethlehem
When I first saw the spiky six petals of this little white flower, it was surprisingly hard to track down what it was. There seems to be a lot more information about its big cousin, the lily. When I finally identified it as Star-of-Bethlehem, I was a little worried, as words like "invasive" and "aggressive" keep cropping up.
Of course, by the time I got it into my head that I should eradicate it, it had already gone back to earth. I tried a couple times in the next years to dig it up, but it seems to have deep roots. And it hasn't actually been all that invasive, at least not in my yard. True, it turns up every spring, but only in a couple spots and those spots are pretty crowded. So there's a bit of room for them.
Besides, I have far, far worse weeds to war against.

Oh joy, the weeds are up
I shouldn't get too excited about the bees and the flowers. The Black Swallow-wort is sprouting too, like little green trumpets of war.
This is the first one I spotted just a couple days ago. It seemed pretty isolated, but now I'm seeing it everywhere. The annual assault of weeds is on, just as I've been expecting.
/Hefting trusty digger of weeds.
Bring it.
First maple shoot
I guess this is the first weed of the year: a maple shoot. And I'm not going have time to pull it or any others for a few days, because NERAX started tonight.
Let the insanity ensue.
This is just too weird
There's a story in Science News about brainlike properties in plant roots. There's zillions of tendrils that connect with each other. They communicate chemically, and maybe even electrically. The article is vague about how exactly plants demonstrate behavior, but it's more than speculation. I've seen what it's talking about when digging up the evil Black Swallow-wort.
Weed patrol: Beggar-tick
I looked for ragweed. And didn't find any in the spot that was infested last year. Or anywhere else. Yet.
I looked for nightshade. And found plenty in the usual spots. Those bright red fruits made it easy to spot, but they plop out everywhere when you pull it up.
I didn't have to look for Black swallow-wort. It looks for you. Little dried pods of seeds already ripe and spraying themselves into the breeze like evil dandelions, hoping to reconquer the swaths I cleared last year and kept clear this year.
Yes! I have indeed made progress in the war on weeds! Now that I look at the sequence, the later a weed goes to seed, the more likely I am to get all of it in time. And some of those troublesome seeds come from Beggar-tick.

Wildflower planting for the bees
While it's fun to plan flowers for the bees, I find the bees like even better the flowers that come unplanned, unheralded, and unasked. Especially in spring, wildflowers fill in the gaps before the "official" flowers bloom.
If I had to pick a favorite wildflower, I think of fall and pick wild asters (with goldenrod a close second). The asters flower late, when the other flowers are faded, in waves of pastels ranging from pink and violet to white. They bring all sorts of bees, honeybees and bumbles, bees big and small, including my favorite little bee, the shiny green Agapostemon.
So here follows my list of wildflowers that attract lots of bees:

Agree that SK has made a good effort to keep the talent influx going via draft even as he looks at which players are going to bolt in FA. Gunther and then NKem. were both brought in ahead of CC hitting 30 and looking for his last big deal. The only puzzling thing is that lack of a QBOF being brought in as well. That key point is why I think BASK were going 'All In' trying to win it with CP, Fitz, BA. Getting your QB room lined up for both the present and future is a key to remain consistently competitive---and so far, SK has not done that. All chips were pushed toward CP, not toward a developmental QB that would have taken a draft pick to get on the roster. Look at the coaching staff we have---almost more coaches than players! All of 'em going back to when the game was invented. Don't think they were brought in for a long-term career with the Cards. They were brought in to win it all within CP's remaining years. I really think MB wanted to win a SB for his father Mr. B. especially when the SB was played in our house. That's why I see the Cards operating mode as short-term and this year was going to be the year of the rebuild with the $$$ from CP and Fitz---except they came back and the rebuild budget was eaten up.
Fluker signed with the Giants, 1 year deal...
I had such high hopes for Watford. Got to sit back build his body and mind to be a real pro. Not even 5 games in he became a target for the opposing defense. What a waste.

This video came to us from Adam Carter. I'll let him introduce it all himself:
Back in October, I posted a blog entry asking who people would want to hear from in MS IT about their work. I got just one response back, suggesting I talk to Ron Markezich about MMS (Microsoft Managed Services – basically outsourced desktop management).
Ron's the VP of Managed Services, and he looks like a nice enough guy on his Press Page, so I emailed him asking if we could do an interview. After a few email exchanges, Ron and I decided that it would be better to interview someone a little closer to the actual technology, and he put me in touch with Mike Adams. The result is the interview here.
We talk about what Managed Services are, how you go about building and migrating to a managed environment, what products you need to do it, and generally what happens when you take Administrator permissions on the PC away from an end user.
Oh, and right before our meeting, Mike had just gotten out of an executive review with Bill Gates.
(note to self – my exec review meetings are not nearly as bad as they could be)
p.s. the strange background noise towards the end of the interview is in fact the sound of snow/hail/sleet smacking into the windows.

Actual format may change based on video formats available and browser capability.

text: Consequently, the current review demonstrated that some clients with hematological malignancies endured from clinically considerable symptoms of posttraumatic pressure in simple fact,Alda-1 structure comprehension and addressing patients' present desires would have much more functional significance than pathologizing them.As proven in the regression evaluation, when the optimistic psychological constructs have been viewed as, the substantial impact of gender on PTSD signs was unveiled in this examine. One achievable motive is that there are significant distinctions in cognizing and dealing with emergency gatherings based upon different personalities, psychological states, and social roles and functions involving equally genders. Most cancers-certain variables these kinds of as ailment forms, clinical stages and solutions had been rarely substantially related with the PTSD signs or symptoms of most cancers survivors as noted beforehand, which was even further confirmed by the current analyze.This finding, reliable with other analysis showing that PSS was substantially connected with PTSD symptoms, confirmed that supportive environments were correlated with considerably less psychological distress in most cancers individuals. PSS could be particularly significant for individuals with hematological malignancies, simply because the ailment, treatment and extended hospitalization necessitate supportive associations in between sufferers and their environments. The effects from univariate analyses showed that the 3 good psychological variables have been negatively correlated with PTSD rating, but only optimism experienced a considerable result on PTSD symptoms in the multivariate regression analyses in the two genders. In simple fact, these constructive psychological constructs are not only correlated with each and every other, but also have causal relationships primarily based on the study on good psychology, cognitive and emotional theories. Hope not only demonstrates individuals' resolve to achieve their ambitions, but also consists of the religion to create a strategy to be successful and to determine an powerful way to implement this system. Folks with greater hope ranges get well more effortlessly from disappointment, so that they are a lot more resilient. Compared with optimism, a lot more exterior means are necessary to foster the optimistic roles of hope and resilience, these as understanding and capabilities, lifestyle ordeals, social networks and economic standing. In addition, it may consider a lengthy time for condition-like capabilities like hope and resilience to just take result due to the fact the technology and growth of both equally need the processes of cognition, emotion and enthusiasm to operate versus the traumatic stressors from hematological malignancies. In the present research, the indicate time due to the fact prognosis of this sample was four.fifty months. Hope and resilience could not yet have beneficial results on PTSD signs and symptoms. Potential study is necessary to check whether or not or not the size of time considering that diagnosis or therapy moderates the associations in between optimistic psychological constructs and PTSD signs and symptoms. Additionally, hope, optimism and resilience with each other accounted for an more 21.% of the variance in the prediction of PTSD signs or symptoms in females and 14.nine% in guys. As talked about earlier mentioned, women's optimism and resilience stages have been substantially greater than males.


text: Obama, however, totally rode the Democratic National Convention in Denver to not only a win in Colorado, but to the White House. North Carolina's vote was one of the pleasant surprises along the way, and what better way to reward the city than with a convention of its very own during the week of Sept. 3. If the president's looking for a feel-good story here, though, he probably shouldn't tread too far beyond the doors of Time Warner Cable ( TWC) Arena. Charlotte area unemployment sits well above the national average at roughly 10% as joblessness in North Carolina in general sits at 9.5%. That's a tight spot for a Democratic president to be in, especially in a city so far into NASCAR country that it's the home of both NASCAR and its hall of fame. Picking the home of Bank of America ( BAC) for a convention will only make the city one-stop shopping for Occupy and other protesters. If you're a delegate or political junkie who knows his or her way around crowd nets and tear-gas canisters, however, it's not a bad place to pick up some barbecue, fresh-from-Asheville craft beer and a little bit of sleep between events. Charlotte's counting on it and estimates of $150 million in revenue from more than 35,000 delegates and visitors.

Black coffee, a cold shower, fried food, maybe even a little hair of the dog — all common hangover remedies. But according to a new study one thing might have them all beat.
"The latest and greatest cure for a hangover actually has some scientific evidence to back it up now. It's Sprite." (Via Fox Business) Kathy: "Alright, here's the big reveal everybody. Sprite cures hangovers. Not that Hoda and I ever have one.
Hoda: "We don't." (Via NBC)
Researchers at a Chinese university say the lemon-lime soda aids in the metabolism of alcohol within the body — breaking down the part that causes hangovers. (Via YouTube / Sprite)
According to National Post, alcohol is processed in the body like this: "When we drink a boozy beverage, ethanol is broken down first into acetaldehyde, which causes the feelings of a hangover, and then into acetate, which is ... thought to be harmless in terms of hangover symptoms …" (Via National Post)
More popular and trending stories
So basically, Sprite speeds up that process. Changing the harmful substance — that causes headaches and nausea — to the harmless substance quicker. (Via ChemistryWorld)
As the study reports Sprite worked better than nearly 60 other beverages. Some of which — including a hemp-based beverage, actually slowed down the process — prolonging the hangover. (Via New York Daily News)
A fact that prompted one University of Exeter medical expert to remind us that what we eat and drink does have its pros and cons.
"These results are a reminder that herbal and other supplements can have pharmacological activities that both harm and benefit our health." (Via Counsel and Heal)
And as CBS explains, there are other reasons for hangovers besides alcohol metabolism, like alcohol-induced dehydration, inflammatory response, and changes in blood sugar. Sprite won't necessarily help with those. (Via CBS)
Still, according to the research, having a Sprite couldn't hurt. We're sure the people who make Sprite would tell you the same.
