MEXICO CITY |
MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - Mexico's top cement maker Cemex (CMXCPO.MX) said on Monday it has signed a 10-year outsourcing deal with IBM that will help it save close to $1 billion during the life of the contract.
International Business Machines Corp (IBM.N) will provide Cemex with business process and information technology services. It will also include finance and accounting, and human resources back-office services, the companies said in a joint statement.
"This agreement with IBM will enable Cemex to focus on its core businesses of cement, ready-mix concrete, and aggregates, improve its financial position and respond more quickly to changing market needs," Chief Executive Lorenzo Zambrano said.
The company, which was swamped by the 2008 U.S. housing meltdown shortly after paying out some $16 billion to buy Australian peer Rinker, has been working its way out of deep debt obligations for the past three years.

I opened a small diner in town a couple
of years back. Three months back the
music store beside my restaurant was
robbed. All of the cash was taken
together with a number of CDs and
music accessories that the shop carried.
It was a great thing though that the three
employees on that particular time and
also the clients at the time were not hurt.
The robbery made me realize the
significance of having tight security not
only for your own business but also for your customers and also employees. So I went online to
look for an excellent dome spy hidden camera for my diner.
A dome camera is a board camera inside a dome housing. Just like surveillance cameras it keeps
tabs on people or a business even when you are not presently there.
The World Wide Web offered a number of dome cameras to select from. There was a speed dome
camera housed inside a water-resistant casing. It has pan tilt and also zoom controls that help in
the thorough surveillance of the area where this particular security camera is installed in.
An indoor day/night monitoring dome camera meanwhile is sensitive to light and thus ideal in dimly
lit locations. It features a high-resolution chip that allows its video recordings to be of high quality.
I further stumbled on a day/night infrared dome monitoring camera. When there is ample
illumination the spy camera records colored videos. In places with low light it switches to taking
black and white videos. It is equipped with LED for better low-light video recording and it can take
videos in complete darkness from a range of 20 feet.
I decided to get the third surveillance spy hidden cameras as it would be of good use whenever
the white lights are used in the morning and still take quality videos as soon as I switch on the
yellow lights for the evening. Also even when I close shop for the evening it could still monitor the
entire area.
My selected dome camera ensures the security of my business even without me there at all times
watching over it.

WARSAW (Reuters) - Four Poles were killed when they were struck by lightning as they trekked across southern Poland's Pieniny Mountains near the Slovak border, local media reported on Saturday.
The bodies of a man and woman from Warsaw, both 50, were found on Friday along with the corpse of their daughter and that of her fianc?, both 22, near a ravine a mere several hundred yards from their hostel.
"It is extremely rare for a single bolt of lightning to kill four people," said Mariusz Zarod, a mountain rescue official.
Polish and Slovak rescuers had used tracker dogs and helicopters to look for the group after it went missing on Wednesday.
Witnesses said an unusually violent thunderstorm punctuated by multiple lightning strikes had raged in the area where the bodies were found.

Brain tumors are the primary cause of cancer mortality in children. Even if a cure is possible, young patients often suffer from the stressful treatment which can be harmful to the developing brain. The most common childhood brain tumors are medulloblastoma and pylocytic astrocytoma.
In order to find new target structures for more gentle treatment methods, cancer researchers are systematically analyzing all changes in the genetic material of such tumors. This is the mission of the PedBrain consortium, which was launched in 2010 as the first German part in the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC). The PedBrain Tumor network, which is coordinated by Professor Peter Lichter of DKFZ and Professor Roland Eils (DKFZ and Heidelberg University), has now published, jointly with numerous collaboration partners, an evaluation of the first 125 genome analyses of medulloblastomas.
"We can already see great differences in the genomes of medulloblastomas from one patient to the next," says Peter Lichter. "But we have also identified a number of frequent and characteristic genomic alterations that may lead the way to developing new methods of diagnosis and treatment."
Brain tumors with four sets of chromosomes are particularly aggressive
A high percentage of medulloblastomas ? particularly among those with very malignant progression ? has four sets of chromosomes instead of two as normal. Medulloblastomas are classified into four groups according to aggressiveness. In the study, about half of tumors belonging to groups 3 and 4, which are very difficult to treat, were found to have this aberration. "It is not proven that the extra chromosomes cause cancer. But it is certain that they occur at a very early stage of the cancerous process," Lichter explains.
Cells with four sets of chromosomes have been found in several types of cancer. However, this genomic aberration also offers a chance of specifically attacking tumors. At the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), researchers collaborating with Bayer Healthcare are currently working to develop an agent which specifically inhibits the growth of cells with more than two sets of chromosomes.
About one third of individual mutations in medulloblastoma are found in genes that play a part in what are called epigenetic modifications. "This finding shows once more that drugs influencing such modifications will become increasingly important in cancer treatment," says Professor Dr. Stefan Pfister, a pediatrician and molecular biologist. DKFZ and Heidelberg University Hospital are already testing such promising substances to treat specific pediatric tumors.
The total number of genomic alterations in medulloblastoma increases with the age of patients. "Although many scientists have supposed that there is such a correlation, it has never been documented before," Stefan Pfister explains. "We suspect, however, that the foundation for medulloblastoma is laid already during embryonic development."
For the first time, the PedBrain researchers have also found what are called fusion genes in medulloblastoma. Such genes are formed when, due to genetic accidents, cancer-promoting genes are fused together and new proteins occur as a result. Such fusion genes cause a number of cancers such as chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). For this cancer, researchers have succeeded in developing a very effective drug against the BCR-ABL fusion gene, which is highly specific for leukemia cells.
"Along with a multitude of individually occurring mutations, we were able to define a number of typical groups of mutations, which will show us the way to new strategies of fighting medulloblastoma", says Peter Lichter to sum up. "Given the genetic complexity and heterogeneity of this tumor type, a useful future approach would be to analyze the tumor genome in each affected child in order to identify the most promising treatment."
International collaboration to analyze tumor genomes
The International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC), a network of scientists from currently 14 countries, aims to obtain a comprehensive description of genomic and epigenomic changes in all relevant cancers. Germany participates with the PedBrain Tumor project to analyze pediatric brain tumors (medulloblastoma, which in Germany affects approximately 100 children each year; and pilocytic astrocytoma, which is diagnosed in about 200 children each year). As part of the PedBrain Tumor project, 300 tumor samples of each tumor type will be analyzed, along with the same number of healthy samples from the same patients in order to identify changes that are cancer-specific.
The PedBrain Tumor network consists of researchers from seven institutes led by project coordinator Peter Lichter of DKFZ. Alongside DKFZ, participating project partners in Heidelberg are: the National Center for Tumor Diseases (NCT), Heidelberg University and the University Hospital, and the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL). In addition, scientists from D?sseldorf University Hospital and the Max Planck Institute for Molecular Genetics in Berlin have taken on tasks within the network project.
PedBrain Tumor was supported by the German Cancer Aid (Deutsche Krebshilfe) with funds of eight million euros and has been funded by the Federal Ministy of Education and Research (BMBF) since 1 July 2012 with another seven million euros.
Furthermore, the PedBrain researchers from DKFZ have contributed results of their medulloblastoma analyses to another two publications in the current issue of Nature. Besides the PedBrain Tumor network, scientists from DKFZ are collaborating in the genome analysis of early prostate cancer (coordination: DKFZ and University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf) and B cell lymphomas (coordination: University of Kiel).

A pulmonary embolism (pull-mun-ary EM-bo-lizm), or eg, a sudden blockage in a lung artery. The blockage is usually due to a blood clot that travels to the lung from a vein in the leg.
A clot that forms part of the body and travels in the bloodstream from another part of the body is called an embolus (em-bo-lus).
If a blood clot is very large, or if there are many clots, PE can cause death.
In 9 of 10 cases, pulmonary embolism (pe) begins as a blood clot in the deep veins of the legs (a condition known as deep vein thrombosis). The clot breaks off from the vein and travels through the bloodstream to the lungs where it can block an artery.
The animation shows how a blood clot in a deep vein in the leg can travel to the lungs causing a pulmonary embolism. Click the ?Start? button to play the animation. Written and spoken explanations for each picture. Use the buttons in the lower right corner to pause, restart, or replay the animation, or use the scroll bar below the buttons to scroll through the frames.
Pulmonary embolism (PE) affects both men and women. The risk increases with age. For every 10 years after age 60 doubles the risk of eg.
Certain hereditary conditions, such as factor V Leiden, increase the risk of blood clotting and thus, the risk of eg.
Signs and symptoms of pulmonary embolism (PE) include unexplained shortness of breath, trouble breathing, chest pain, cough or coughing up blood. An arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) also may indicate eg.
In some cases, the only signs and symptoms are associated with deep vein thrombosis (DVT). These include swelling of the leg or along the vein in the leg, pain or tenderness in the leg, a feeling of increased temperature in the area of the leg that is swollen or tender red or spots on the skin in the affected leg. Consult your doctor immediately if you have symptoms of PE or DVT.
Pulmonary embolism (PE) is treated with medications, procedures and other therapies. The main objectives of treatment are eg to stop the blood clot from getting bigger and keep new clots from forming.
Treatment may include medications to thin blood and reduce its ability to clot. If your symptoms are life threatening, your doctor may give you medicine to dissolve the clot faster. Rarely, your doctor may use surgery or another procedure to remove the clot.

A new study from Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) finds that expanding Medicaid to low-income adults leads to widespread gains in coverage, access to care, and?most importantly?improved health and reduced mortality. It is the first published study to look specifically at the effect of recent state Medicaid expansions on mortality among low-income adults, and the findings suggest that expanding coverage to the uninsured may save lives.
"The recent Supreme Court decision on the Affordable Care Act ruled that states could decide whether or not they wanted to participate in the health care law's Medicaid expansion. Our study provides evidence suggesting that expanding Medicaid has a major positive effect on people's health," said Benjamin Sommers, assistant professor of health policy and economics at HSPH and the study's lead author.
The study will be published online July 25, 2012 and will appear in the September 13, 2012 print issue of the New England Journal of Medicine.
In the past decade, several states expanded Medicaid from its traditional coverage of low-income children, parents, pregnant women, and disabled persons to include "childless adults," poor adults without any children living at home and the population most directly targeted by the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Medicaid currently covers 60 million people, and the ACA will extend eligibility to millions more beginning in 2014. However, the Supreme Court decision gives states the option of choosing whether or not to expand coverage and, because of budget pressures, some states are considering cutbacks, not expansion.
The HSPH researchers, including senior author Arnold Epstein, chair of the Department of Health Policy and Management, and Katherine Baicker, professor of health economics, analyzed data from three states?Arizona, Maine, and New York?that had expanded their Medicaid programs to childless adults (aged 20-64) between 2000 and 2005. They selected four neighboring states without major Medicaid expansions?New Hampshire (for Maine), Pennsylvania (for New York), and Nevada and New Mexico (for Arizona)?as controls. The researchers analyzed data from five years before and after each state's expansion.
The results showed that Medicaid expansions in three states were associated with a significant reduction in mortality of 6.1% compared with neighboring states that did not expand Medicaid, which corresponds to 2,840 deaths prevented per year for each 500,000 adults gaining Medicaid coverage. Mortality reductions were greatest among older adults, non-whites, and residents of poorer counties. Expansions also were associated with increased Medicaid coverage, decreased uninsurance, decreased rates of deferring care due to costs, and increased rates of "excellent" or "very good" self-reported health.
The groups that benefitted from Medicaid expansion in this study?older adults, racial and ethnic minorities, and those living in poor areas?are groups that have traditionally had higher mortality rates and faced greater barriers to care. The study results provide valuable evidence for state policymakers deciding whether or not to expand Medicaid, say the authors.
"Sometimes the political rhetoric is at odds with the evidence, such as claims that Medicaid is a 'broken program' or worse than no insurance at all; our findings suggest precisely the opposite," said Epstein.

VoIP & Network Quality Manager 4.0 RC is out for a while and based on your RC feedback we would like to give you more details about adding Call Manager or troubleshooting possible issues during setup.
?
First of all, your Cisco Call Manager needs to be ready for monitoring calls.
?
You can set it up via CCM web console. To do that, please follow Cisco tutorial here: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/voice_ip_comm/cucmbe/service/6_0_1/car/caranrpt.html#wp1037699
You also need to enable AXL credentials on CUCUM. That could be done easily using this tutorial: http://www.uplinx.com/cleanuptool/userguide/index.htm#page=Enable_AXL_on_CUCM.htm
?
In case that your AXL credential test failing in VNQM add call manager wizard, you need to be sure that you can use AXL via SOAP from the VNQM web console.
To do that type following into the browser:? https://<ip address>:8443/axl/
?
If AXL API is working, Call Manager should see following output:
Cisco CallManager: AXL Web Service
The AXL Web Service is working and accepting requests. Use HTTP POST to send a request.
?
If this is not your case, please check the VNQM to CCM connectivity (firewals, etc.) and reffer to step two ? how to enable AXL credentials on CUCUM.
?
If your Call Manager is prepared then it?s time for Adding Call Managers to VNQM:
Navigate to VoIP & Quality Settings and click on ?Add New CallManager nodes? link.
?
Add Call Manager wizard appears with the list of nodes to select. Select the corresponding Call Manager node and click ?Next?.
After clicking ?Next?, a new screen appears asking what needs to be monitored for the Call Manager node. The Call Manager node can be added with or without CDR/CMR polling.
?
If you can?t add a node that is supposed to be a call manager then you have probably SNMP service turned off on Call Manager. Take a look on the following screen which shows you how to find if SNMP is turned ON.
Note:? If added with CDR/CMR polling, the wizard gives an option to enter AXL credentials (to poll region specific data) and FTP server credentials (where the CDR/CMR files are stored).
?
Click ?Next? after selecting the monitor type.
?
Note: If without CDR/CMR monitoring is selected, the wizard adds the call manager without providing an option to enter AXL credentials and FTP credentials. It can be added later by editing the call manager node
?
?
?
Click ?Next? button to continue.
Add FTP Server (where CDR files will be placed):
?
After clicking on ?Next? button from the Add FTP server page, the final summary page appears. Users can review the entered data and clicking on ?Add Call Manager? adds the call manager to the VNQM.
?
Now you are eligible to do a search for CDRs via VNQM web console and system will periodically poll for new CDR files.
?

Can you imagine if you can get free of charge web hosting? Sounds wonderful, appropriate? Some companies offer you this, although indicating that most they want in exchange is that you should submit their ad in a small part of your online site. They don?t explain how unreliability may be one of many other trade-offs. Keep reading to get more advice about exactly what makes a good web hosting service and why you might be happier paying for 1.
Before hitting a binding agreement having a web host, look into its return policy. There are times that, even when you have done your greatest to research the organization upfront, stuff just don?t work out. Know what your choices could be in cases like this prior to buying. You don?t desire to be saddled with improper service with no solution.
Take into consideration your long term budget before you decide to invest in a web web hosting company. Some businesses supply discount rates when you commit to a 1-season, 2-calendar year or lengthier agreement. Choose a business that provides a small cost for too long-term web hosting, but ensure the organization you end up picking gives all of the choices you need.
Refrain from the enticement to just accept totally free website sign up from your very same firm you will end up utilizing for web hosting. There are several begin-ups around who may - or might not - be around for very long, and they probably will not give clientele progress observe if they are venturing out of economic. You will need to have instant entry to your domain signing up if this happens, but might be unable to buy it should they be out of company.
When moving your web site involving hosts, possess a duplicate of your internet site at each your older and new hosts for a few days. It?s essential to do this since it takes 6-48 hours for that DNS to propagate. During this period, some site visitors is going to be brought to your outdated website, while some as their ISPs have updated their DNS facts will be delivered to your brand new internet site.

So you just acquired a brand new pet into your family, it?s sure that you?ve got some quality times in front of you. Just before you get ecstatic, you have to know that as being the owner, you?ve got quite a few obligations to handle. Probably the most important responsibility which you have is the essential need to train the brand new pet. However why does one need to train their canine pal? The popular notion is that dog training is not really required unless you want your dogs to learn new neat tricks. But this type of notion is certainly ill-informed. The great things about dog training in Brisbane extend a lot further than for the intention of mild amusement. You want your pet to act appropriately at all times, especially when you go and take him out of the house. An untrained canine can pose some real problems not just to the owners but to other people as well. Here are some tips on how to efficiently train your pet dog.
When it comes to training your furry friend, it is essential that you are absolutely firm. Canines usually have the disposition to count themselves as part of the pack. If there is no leader model available, a dog will most likely step up and take on the role by itself. Nevertheless the position of the pack leader is obviously something which must be allotted to you. This essentially signifies that when you?re handing out directions, you have to convey it with extreme clearness and volume. When training you pet, it is always advised that you start with the most basic ones which are generally easy. Coaching them with intricate instructions earlier on will quite definitely result in a situation where their determination is reduced. Virtually any professional in dog training in Brisbane will advise you that positive encouragement is invariably the ultimate way to go. This essentially implies that you shouldn?t include any kind of punishment on the training program. So you must keep clear of yelling, shouting, striking or several other actions that may harm your four-legged buddy.
To encourage optimum motivation, ensure that the rewards that you?re planning to share with your canine are his particular favourites. It can be his desired treat or maybe snack. Dogs will almost certainly respond more positively when you train them in this way. Remember that the experience of training your household dog should be viewed as a pleasurable hobby, both for you and the pet. Observe it as an engaging exercise to pass by the time as opposed to as a labourious task that you must complete. Should you be unable to find a means to train your pet on your own, a person always has the choice of appointing individuals that are experts in dog training in Adelaide.

Hello, all. I'm looking forward to roleplaying with some of you and being schooled by the rest. I'm a longtime roleplayer and fanfiction writer whose favorite roleplay genres include historical, light fantasy, medieval, and modern realism. I enjoy the process of creating innovative plot lines and interesting, believable characters.
I don't feel boxed into playing one gender over the other and will play whatever I think is needed for the story, though I have a little more fun with male characters. If anyone knows of any promising roleplays that haven't started yet or have recently started I'd feel indebted for the heads up.
Thanks guys. See you around.

Los Angeles, California (PRWEB) June 27, 2012
Lifestyle Intervention creator and personal transformation, behavioral health expert, Michael Cartwright proudly announced today that the second annual Lifestyle Intervention Conference has named Bree Boyce as the host of the highly anticipated 2012 wellness event at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.
Michael Cartwright has assembled the best team of authorities in the world to lead the charge against Americas obsession with overconsumption and Bree Boyces addition to the lineup already has the industry abuzz.
Bree Boyce has taken the nation by storm since receiving the title of Miss South Carolina 2011; however, Bree is not your typical titleholder. Most beauty queens would not advertise that they once weighed 234 pounds and were struggling to breathe. At 17, she had reached her highest weight, 234 pounds, and started having health challenges. Her doctor warned her that her knees and joints couldn?t handle the excessive weight and she was placed on an inhaler to make it through the day. She was told that more serious problems were unavoidable if she didn?t slim down. After being on the diet roller coaster most of her teenage years, she was finally able to make a crucial shift in her mindset that allowed Bree to make a lifestyle change that she could commit to. The old fashioned formula of hard work, discipline and full commitment to a new lifestyle was Brees strategy for extraordinary success.
Bree has established herself as a premiere advocate on health and fitness, and childhood obesity, which is one of the most relevant health topics in our nations history and at the core of the Lifestyle Intervention Conference, which is why her involvement as host for this years event is in perfect alignment with Michael Cartwrights vision of healthy lifestyle choices for the planet. Bree knows the challenges of obesity on all levels and most importantly, what it takes to escape the deadly cycle.
Conference Co-Host and founder Michael Cartwright said, Bree Boyce embodies the very essence of the Lifestyle Intervention Conference and the vision our team has for creating the healthiest America possible. We are both humbled and thrilled to have Ms. Boyce as the host of our event, her story of hope and transformation is truly amazing; however, it is her commitment to inspiring change in kids and adults, that makes her involvement such a gift. Mr. Cartwright added, We are launching an attack on process addictions and overconsumption across the country and any team with Bree Boyce is a winning team.
The 2012 Lifestyle Intervention Conference unfolds at Las Vegas Bellagio from October 1st3rd and will offer extensive continuing education courses for Dietitians, Social Workers, Trainers, Psychologists and more. For more information visit http://www.lifestyleintervention.org or call 888.231.0911.
About The Lifestyle Intervention Conference
Michael Cartwright and Brad Lamm joined forces in 2011 to develop a new frontier for health, wellness and awareness. In less than a year, the Lifestyle Intervention Conference has become the premier event for the worlds top health, wellness and addiction leaders. For 2012, Mr. Cartwright and experts from his various, industry-leading facilities such as FitRx and The Greenhouse have once again assembled the best minds in the world and the Lifestyle Intervention Conference is poised to shift consciousness to yet another level. Created with the intention of building a network of resources within the community of providers who serve those struggling with obesity, food addiction and now including a focus on process addictions, The Lifestyle Intervention Conference continues to be the most critical, industry-changing event to impact the health, fitness and wellness communities in decades.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
Looks like Jude Law, Sienna Miller and Hugh Grant now have some high-profile company. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were revealed Tuesday to be among the victims of the sweeping News of the World phone-hacking scandal, whose far-reaching aftershocks led to the collapse of a historic British paper and to hundred of millions of dollars in payouts to its victims, including a slew of A-list celebs.

Per the BBC, the Brangelina revelations surfaced as prosecutors announced in London Tuesday morning that eight people will face criminal charges in connection with the scandal, including former News International executive and News of the World editor Rebekah Brooks, as well as Andy Coulson, one-time communications director to Prime Minister David Cameron.
They were slapped with a total of 19 charges, including "conspiring to intercept communications without lawful authority" from October 2000 to August 2006. More than 600 people have been identified as victims in the massive scandal, including a teenager who was kidnapped and later found dead.
Two individuals in particular -- former chief reporter Neville Thurlbeck and former assistant editor James Weatherup -- were named in connection with the Jolie-Pitt hacking, and were "charged on suspicion of conspiracy to intercept the voicemails" of the couple.

BEIRUT (AP) ? Syrian rebels have launched an offensive to "liberate" the country's largest city of Aleppo, an opposition commander said Sunday, while in Damascus government troops backed by helicopter gunships wrested back control of rebel-held neighborhoods.
The opposition attack on Aleppo, Syria's commercial hub and traditionally a bedrock of support for President Bashar Assad, was a sign of the rebels' growing confidence and capabilities even as regime forces appeared close to regaining control of the capital Damascus after days of bloody street battles.
With Syria's civil war moving from the countryside and smaller cities into the country's two main urban centers, an activist group said the death toll had risen to more than 19,000 since the uprising began in March 2011. The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights also said July is shaping up to be the deadliest month of the conflict so far, with 2,752 people killed in the first three weeks ? already nearly as many as the previous month.
The bloodshed has escalated as the rebels have taken the battle to the government with a week of fighting in Damascus, including a bombing that struck at the core of Assad's regime, killing four senior officials.
"Right now Assad's inner circle has been dismantled and Assad has lost his balance," said Brig. Gen. Abdul Kareem al-Ahmad of the Free Syrian Army at a meeting in Turkey. "This war is now being waged in the heart of Syria in Damascus."
In a bid to seize the momentum, the opposition also has taken control of several border crossings with Iraq and Turkey.
A video posted online by activists Sunday showed about a dozen gunmen standing in front of the Bab al-Salamah crossing on the Turkish frontier as they raised the Syrian opposition flag.
Yet, even as the rebels seized one crossing, they abandoned another. Iraqi military officials and state television reported that Syrian government forces retook control of the Rabiya crossing in the north after rebels pulled out. Far to the south, the rumble of fighting could be heard from the larger Bukamal crossing near the Iraqi town of al-Qaim in the desert.
Brig. Gen. Manaa Rahal of the Free Syrian Army trumpeted the seizures of the Turkish border crossings as key to the rebel struggle.
"The seizure of these border crossings was a crucial victory for the opposition and its strategic importance will only increase," he said in the meeting in Turkey's Hatay province.
Damascus and Aleppo are both home to elites who have benefited from close ties to Assad's regime, as well as merchant classes and minority groups who worry their status will suffer if Assad falls.
Col. Abdul-Jabbar Mohammed Aqidi, the commander of rebel forces in Aleppo province, said in the video posted on Youtube, "we gave the orders for the march into Aleppo with the aim of liberating it."
He called on government troops to defect and join the opposition, and said rebels will protect members of President Bashar Assad's Alawite minority sect, an off-shoot of Shiite Islam, saying "our war is not with you but with the Assad family."
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights and Aleppo-based activist Mohammed Saeed said the fighting is concentrated in several neighborhoods.
Saeed said rebels are in full control of the central Salaheddine district and the nearby Sakhour area. He added that thousands of residents have fled tense quarters of the city for safer neighborhoods and the suburbs.
"Aleppo is witnessing serious street battles," Saeed said, with fierce clashes on the road leading to the city's international airport, known as Nairab, as rebels tried to surround the airfield to prevent the regime from sending reinforcements.
Syrian state TV, however, played down the scale of the violence, saying government troops were hunting down "terrorists" and killing large numbers of them. The government refers to those trying to overthrow Assad's regime as "terrorists."
In the capital of Damascus, the Observatory also reported attacks by government forces in the neighborhoods of Mazzeh and Barzeh that had once been held by rebels. It said that troops used helicopters gunships in the attack, causing heavy casualties.
Maj. Gen. Nabil Zughaib, described as a missile expert, was also shot dead along with his wife and a son in the Damascus neighborhood of Bab Touma, according to the Observatory.
Syrian state TV denied government forces were using helicopters in Damascus, and said the capital was calm and troops were just mopping up the remnants of the "terrorists" in cooperation with residents.
Television also showed images of calm streets in Damascus and workmen cleaning up rubble in the once-rebel held Midan neighborhood, in effort to portray a capital where everything has returned to normal.
Assad, meanwhile, appeared on state TV receiving Gen. Ali Ayyoub, the new army chief of staff, whose predecessor replaced the defense minister slain in the bombing. It was only Assad's second appearance since the attack.
Despite the regime's efforts to present an image of calm in the capital, Malaysia's government said it was shuttering its embassy in Damascus and evacuating more than 130 students and diplomats, while Italy ordered of its citizens to leave the country because of the "progressive deterioration" of the situation.
The escalating bloodshed and increasing chaos also has put Syria's neighbors on edge, particularly Israel.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday that Israel was closely monitoring the violence in Syria for signs the regime's chemical weapons or missiles might make their way into the hands of anti-Israeli militants.
Over the weekend, Israel's defense minister, Ehud Barak, said the Jewish state was preparing for a possible attack to prevent that from happening.
For his part, King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia has announced the start of a "national campaign to collect donations to support our brothers in Syria," suggesting the oil-rich kingdom may be looking to boost its financial support for the rebels, which they are already believed to be funding.

California?s senior population has not exceeded the national growth rate for this age group but just like in other states, California long term care continues to be a hot issue. Studies show that the increasing number of chronic diseases in this western part of America is one reason that the cost of care continues to skyrocket.
By studying Genworth Financial?s new Cost of Care Survey you will realize that the annual growth rate of California?s LTC costs has far exceeded the national average. The cost of in-home care in California, for instance, has increased 2% as opposed to 1% on the national level so the hourly rate of a home health aide in this state is $23 while nationally it is only $19.
Many in-home care recipients in California are depending on their friends and relatives because they cannot afford a home health aide whose job is mainly to provide elderly and disabled people assistance with their activities of daily living (ADL) such as bathing, dressing, eating, continence, transferring, and toileting.
Meanwhile, the annual LTC spending of nursing home residents in California is a whopping $93,988. Many elderly folks in California suffer chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and cancer among others, and thus the inevitability of nursing home care. Obesity, according to LTC specialists, is the main cause of these diseases and so much more. Unfortunately, cases of obesity continue to increase in the country.
Californians are advised to start working on their health care plans to avoid the impact of LTC costs on their finances. In less than 20 years the cost of care is expected to rise fourfold according to financial experts, so everybody without a clear plan for his future health care needs has very slim chances of receiving topnotch care and protecting his family from impoverishment.
California Long Term Care
Oftentimes, individuals with no concrete LTC plans find themselves on the receiving end of mediocre to poor LTC services.
Poor LTC service cannot be defined in just one word or sentence because a lot of unpleasant things constitute it such as verbal, physical and emotional abuse from a caregiver or skilled nurse, neglected nutrition, and unhygienic living conditions in an LTC facility.
To avoid such horrifying experience, Californians are constantly reminded to take their future health care needs seriously. Those individuals who are not sure where and how to start their LTC plans can seek professional advice from the experts such as elder care specialists, elder law attorneys, financial advisers, and long term care insurance (LTCI) specialists.
Californians do not have to lose their dignity, pride and independence once the need for care sets in. They can still be in control of their lives if this is what they really want. However, for this to happen they should start planning their LTC while they are young, healthy and earning a substantial amount of money.
The cost of California long term care will continue to rise so everybody should stop thinking of this topic as inconsequential, otherwise he?s bound to face a future of misery.

Ashley Moser, the 25-year-old victim of Friday morning's movie theatre massacre in Aurora, Colo., remains in critical condition at the Aurora Medical Center with bullets lodged in her throat and abdomen. In her lucid moments she asks for Veronica, her 6-year-old daughter, unaware that the little girl has passed away, making her the youngest victim of the gunman's shooting rampage at Aurora's Century 16 movie theatre.
"Nobody can tell her about it," Annie Dalton, Ashley Moser's niece, told the Associated Press. "She is in critical condition, but all she's asking about is her daughter."
The Denver Post describes Veronica as a "vibrant" child who was bragging a few days ago about learning to swim.
Doctors told the Post Ashley fades in and out of consciousness and will likely suffer some paralysis, but that they are hopeful she will regain some use of her hands. According to the report, Ashley was recently accepted to medical school.
Ashley's situation is not unlike that of former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.). When Giffords stabilized after being shot in the January 2011 Tucson, Ariz., massacre, her husband, Mark Kelly, had to tell her about the incident, and those who died, following the massacre. In an interview with ABC's Diane Sawyer, Giffords touched on the moment she found out about the other injuries and fatalities,
"I cried," she told Sawyer in her halted speech, adding she felt "sad."

There's a reason NASA's Shuttle budget was immense, and that it takes a billionaire like Elon Musk to succeed at space entrepreneurism: It costs a lot of money to design, build, test, redesign, rebuild, retest, [rinse and repeat...] to the point where you're not being criminally reckless to put a human being in a space vehicle.
And even then, deadly accidents [wikipedia.org] happen [wikipedia.org].
The Russians do it slightly differently by emphasizing building the hardware and testing it rather than modeling, analysis and simulation, especially in the preliminary design phases. It saves a little money, but is still costly.
Put another way, if garage-built rockets could make it into space, then we'd have orbital, Lunar and asteroid colonies by now.
But one of these days, technology and materials will allow "garage" projects like this. Perhaps the time has come. I wish him luck. It takes cojones grandes to be the first. If he's patient, deliberate, extraordinarily cautious, and more than a little lucky then he can pull it off.

After a week or so of increasingly contentious negotiations Viacom and DirecTV have come to some sort of agreement, returning the missing channels to satellite TV subscribers as of... now. Naturally, each side is sticking to its guns, and even with a long term deal inked they still disagree on the number of channels involved.
So who won? The exact financial numbers have not been revealed, but you can check out the dueling press releases after the break. The contested Epix package is an option (but not a requirement) for DirecTV, while the satellite broadcaster is happily adding access to Viacom content on mobiles, PCs and "other media devices" as a part of its DirecTV Everywhere service. Thanks to support from other pay TV providers, DirecTV is taking the more aggressive position, but we'll wait for the inevitable "people in a position to know" to chime in with some dollars and cents figures before calling a victor.
Update: As expected, Bloomberg reports "people with direct knowledge" claim the new agreement is another seven year contract priced at more than $600 million per year, about 20 percent more than what Viacom was getting before. At least one analyst called it a win for both sides -- we'll see how subscribers fared if (when) there's a rate hike any time soon.

Republican presidential candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, arrives to campaign at Middlesex Truck and Coach on Thursday, July 19, 2012, in Roxbury, Mass. (AP Photo/Evan Vucci)
BOSTON (AP) ? Mitt Romney is attacking President Barack Obama in a new television ad that seizes on the president's suggestion that government helps create businesses.
The Republican presidential candidate's new ad, entitled "These Hands," features Obama's remarks from a Virginia campaign stop last week. It shows a business owner who says he and his father used hard work to build their company.
Obama told supporters last week that "somebody else" helped create their businesses. The remark came as Obama discussed the supportive role of government in the nation's economic success.
The Romney campaign has refused to say where and when the new ad is running. It follows a week in which Romney has aggressively attacked Obama for the comment, among others, as the Republican faces growing calls to release his tax returns.
