The Washington Post
Wall Street is finally waking up to the troubling prospect that lawmakers may not reach a deal to avert the "fiscal cliff" deal before the new year, with stocks swinging dramatically Thursday in response to news from Capitol Hill.
Financial markets had been climbing in recent weeks on the expectation that President Barack Obama and the Congress would reach an agreement, adding further momentum to an economy that has been gaining strength.
But with the final days trickling away before the year-end deadline, the markets Thursday experienced their greatest volatility since the summer. It was also the fourth consecutive day of losses on Wall Street.
Investors responded almost instantly to pronouncements from leading lawmakers. Shares plunged in the morning after Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., predicted a deal would be unlikely by Tuesday and, with investors grasping at a straw of hope, bounced back in the afternoon when House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, said he would call members back to work Sunday.
Analysts and economists said investors were finally recognizing that a typical last-minute Washington deal could prove elusive and instead lawmakers were gearing up for hand-to-hand combat over the weeks to come. If there's no deal before Tuesday, taxes would rise for most Americans and deep government spending cuts would begin, dealing the economy a painful blow.
"There's a realization sinking in," said Vincent Reinhart, chief U.S. economist at Morgan Stanley. "It's a learning process. People are beginning to think that the cliff is with us for a while longer."
The Dow Jones industrial average lost 150.5 points Thursday before recouping most of its losses to finish down 18.28, at 13,096. The Standard & Poor's 500 fell 18 points before rebounding to end down 1.73 points, at 1418.10.
Beyond unsettling the markets, the fiscal cliff of automatic tax increases and spending cuts is already beginning to take a bite out of the U.S. economy, which had been showing signs of accelerating growth.
On Thursday, a new report on consumer confidence came in well below the analysts' expectations, reversing months of steady gains. The Conference Board consumer confidence index plunged from 71.5 to 65.1, most of the decline driven by declining expectations by consumers about what the future will hold.
"All the talk, hype and grim reality of the fiscal cliff finally caught up with consumers in December," Mark Vitner, senior economist at Wells Fargo, wrote in a report.
Several economic analysts are drawing parallels between what is happening to markets and consumer confidence now and their performance during the 2011 debate in Washington over raising the limit on federal borrowing.
During that debt-ceiling showdown, the failure of negotiations to reach a timely deal brought the government to the brink of default, prompting Standard & Poor's to downgrade the U.S. credit rating and dealing a heavy blow to consumer confidence.
In the lead up to that debt crisis, investors remained optimistic that policymakers would ultimately reach a deal until the deadline drew near. Then, markets plunged as investors realized that congressional negotiations might fail and the government would default on its debt.
"Both confidence and markets remain[ed] pretty sanguine up to pretty close to the point where it looked like there was actually a chance the debt limit would not be raised. And then, of course, there was a pretty sharp shock," Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said this month. "It's not unusual to see markets being complacent."
While debate over the fiscal cliff has called into question the financial health of the U.S. government, the value of government bonds has been rising amid the growing uncertainty. On Thursday, the price of a 10-year Treasury bond rose while the yield declined by .015 percentage points, to 1.736 percent. A lower yield means investors think the Treasury bond is less risky than it was the day before.
Despite concerns about the health of the economy, investors see U.S. government securities as a haven — and have continued to invest in them.
For most Americans, going over the fiscal cliff would mean declining confidence in the economy, rising anxiety and a near-immediate hit to take-home pay as higher taxes take effect. But the unemployed would be especially hard hit. Unless an agreement is reached, many jobless Americans will not be able to apply for unemployment benefits after Saturday, and no more checks will arrive after next week.
"The eleventh hour has arrived. Millions of unemployed workers and their families are hoping that Congress will come through for them this holiday season," said Christine Owens, executive director of the National Employment Law Project. "Other consequences of going over the fiscal cliff won't be felt for some time, but losing emergency unemployment compensation will deliver an immediate and severe blow to people who are already down."

Congress staves off tax hikes, averting the 'fiscal cliff'
WASHINGTON — Past its own New Year's deadline, a weary Congress sent President Barack Obama legislation to avoid a national "fiscal cliff" of middle class tax increases and spending cuts late Tuesday night in the culmination of a struggle that strained America's divided government to the limit.

WASHINGTON — Turning the newfound optimism for a deal to avoid the "fiscal cliff" into an actual deal will take 72 hours of deft political and procedural maneuvering through many of the same traps that have so far prevented an agreement.
There's Still Hope to Avoid a 'Fiscal Cliff'
The United States is only three days away from going over the "fiscal cliff" — with all the damage that could do to confidence in the country's capacity to manage its basic affairs — and Washington's leaders still have not agreed on even a stopgap measure to avoid the worst consequences of failing to reach an agreement. But there is a clear way to avert them.

Chicago offers a business cost advantage over many global cities. It's a central hub with direct connections to all six Class-One North American railroads, six major U.S. Interstates, and more than 200 cities worldwide.
In KPMG's 2012 Guide to Competitive Alternatives, Chicago was ranked one of the most cost-effective cities in the world for doing business — ahead of New York and Boston — in terms of the combined impact of 26 significant business cost components including labor, utilities, facility, transportation, financing costs, and taxes.
Cost vs. Purchasing Power
PriceWaterHouseCoopers, in "Cities of Opportunity," measured average costs of living and business occupancy against a city's purchasing power. Chicago proved to be among the better deals, scoring higher than a host of global cities including Paris, Tokyo, Beijing, New York, Shanghai, London, and Singapore.
Competitive Office & Industrial Rates
Chicago's office and industrial space costs are highly competitive, meaning reduced overhead and superior "urban value."
According to the Prime Office Occupancy Costs study (CB Richard Ellis, Dec. 2012), Chicago's annual total occupancy cost per square foot was $49.15—well below central Hong Kong ($246), London ($220), Tokyo ($197), Beijing ($185), Shanghai ($116), New York ($114), Washington, D.C. ($95), San Francisco ($90), Boston ($88), and Toronto ($68).
Colliers International's Midyear 2013 industrial report showed similar results, with lower industrial costs in Chicago ($3.71 USD/SF/yr) compared to other major cities including London ($21.95), Paris ($14.70), San Francisco ($9.48), Mexico City ($6.25), Tokyo ($6.24), and Los Angeles ($6.21).
Chicago's major utility companies including ComEd, AT&T, and Peoples Energy can deliver low-cost power to meet a company's present and future needs. These utilities work closely with their communities and local & state governments to design competitive energy packages that support sustainable growth.

Types of Psoriasis conditions
Psoriasis is a skin condition that occurs when the skin cell life cycle is happening too fast. Everyone's skin cells die while our bodies create new ones. Usually, this cycle is not noticeable. However, when the process speeds up (as it does in psoriasis) it is noticeable. There are five different types of psoriasis. If you think you might have a type of psoriasis you should make an appointment with your doctor.
Plaque Psoriasis
According to the Mayo Clinic, plaque psoriasis is the most common type of psoriasis. The condition usually shows up on the elbows and knees, but can form anywhere on the body. The symptoms of plaque psoriasis include red, dry, itchy skin, raised lesions, and scaly patches. Mild cases can be treated with an over the counter cortisone cream.
Guttate Psoriasis
Guttate psoriasis is most often caused by a bacterial infection. It shows up as small drop-like spots. They usually show up on the neck, chest, arms, scalp, or legs. It can come on very quickly. It could just happen once, or could come and go. It might go away on its own, or need treatment.
Inverse Psoriasis
Inverse psoriasis appears in smooth, shiny red patches on the groin, armpits, under the knees, or under the breasts. This type of psoriasis is more common in those who are obese. It gets worse when there is friction. It can be sensitive to touch, but doesn't have the scaly lesions like the other types of psoriasis usually do.
Pustular Psoriasis
This type of psoriasis usually occurs on the feet, hands or fingertips, but can appear in wider spaces. The skin becomes red and tender. Blisters will form within the same day (just a few hours) after the redness and tenderness starts. It can cause infections and light sensitivity.
Erythrodermic Psoriasis
This type of psoriasis can cover your entire body with a red rash that peels, itches and burns. It could be caused by a sunburn, light sensitivity, a non-treated psoriasis, or particular medications. This will need immediate treatment as it can cause further illness such as severe dehydration, fever, infection, pneumonia, and even congestive heart failure.

text: Recall Bruce Lee's famous Cobra Lats (latissimus dorsi) in the movie Way of the Dragon. Well I've always been a skinny lad, and I've been working hard these few months for a tapered V-shape look and hopefully something close enough Bruce Lee's lats. Here's what I've been doing so far: 1) Lat pull downs – compound (10%)Anchor myself firmly, feet flat, at the pull down machine. 2) Pull-ups – compound (70%)I do this several reps combined into several sets 3) Finger Pushups – compound (10%)Gives an overall nice touch to my body. 4) Rowing – compound (10%)I mainly use dumbbell rows You can also try these other lats training, which I do sparingly.

Case for Helder's TA2020 MKIII Amp Module
Hi folks, I am ready to pull the trigger on the kit, but coming up zero on cases. I need a case and the volume & selector knobs. I'd like to assemble the kit in one made for this setup, but only coming up with nothing but blank projects boxes.
Can you guys steer me to an eBay or US seller? Thanks. |

Arjen has indicated in the past that he is quite close to releasing a MKIII unit in a finished case. I know it has been a chaotic year for him, but I am beginning to doubt that this project will ever come to fruition. Maybe he will comment so some of us that have been waiting can get off the fence and finally make a decision.
Arjen, are you out there? |

OK, thanks. I will sit tight, have too many projects to figure this out. Maybe Arjen will jump in a shed some insight.
If you all hear of any completed MKIIIs, please chime in. Thanks. |

Waiting on my Helder 2020 kit as well. Did get my 12v 5a Chinese Meanwell clone today! I am looking at putting the pair in a cigar box enclosure, but I did find this on while searching for an aluminum chassis.

Thanks for those links. According to the info I have , the board is 5 cm high and the box ix 6.9 cm, leaving a clearance of about 0.7 inch. Is this enough to mount on spacers or studs?

Looks like you can at least shim it away from the enclosure or put a layer of cardboard/rubber between and make that work.

Pulled the trigger yesterday and got the TA2020 MKIII kit from Arjen. Decided to go with this case from Taiwan so that I can accommodate the transformer.
Keep in mind that this kit has 2 knobs to accommodate and 3 inputs. Looking forward to the build. |

I understand that since secondary.com operations were picked up by UltraDNS, there's been a signifigant brain drain within UDNS operations, and from what I've heard, there isn't a lot of smarts left there.
This anecdotal theory is borne out by empirical evidence- they seem unable to come up with the TSIG key they use when slaving my zones.
Secondary.com used a TSIG key, and UltraDNS continued using the same key (for my account, at least).
Earlier this year, I lost the key when my nameserver had a nasty double-disk failure.
Since then, I've been allowing axfr based on IP address, which is less preferable for many reasons.
I've recently had a chance to try setting up TSIG based transfer authentication again, but UltraDNS now claims no knowledge of such a key.
Are there any other secondary.com/UltraDNS customers out there who have TSIG transfers configured? Perhaps you could contact UltraDNS support and let them know which key they are using.
thanks, and sorry for the rant.

Hot starting problems are usually fuel related. When a hot engine is shut off, the temperature of the engine and everything on it continues to rise for awhile as the engine undergoes a period of "heat soak." This can cause fuel to boil inside the carburetor bowl, fuel lines and fuel filter. When you attempt to restart the engine, "vapor lock" obstructs the flow of fuel and the engine doesn't want to start.
This is much less of a problem on fuel injected engines because the fuel is usually under much higher pressure inside the injectors and fuel line. Even so, a fuel line routed near an exhaust manifold or a fuel rail that's exposed to a lot of heat may still suffer the same kind of problems.
Heat soak problems such as these can sometimes be cured by wrapping insulation around affected fuel lines, and/or installing an insulating spacer or heat shield under the carburetor.
Hard hard starting tends to be a seasonal problem, but may be worse in the early months of spring when refiners are switching fuel blends. Gasoline refiners produce fuel with a slightly lower volatility rating (called "Reed vapor pressure") during hot summer months because lower volatility fuel is less likely to boil and cause hot starting problems. During the winter, they switch to a higher volatility fuel because it makes cold starting easier. But if you still have "winter" grade fuel in your tank when warm spring weather arrives, you may experience some hot starting problems. The problem will go away, however, as soon as the refiners in your area switch to their summer grade fuel.
Hot starting problems can also be caused by cooling problems that allow your engine to run too hot (the pistons swell up and may scuff the cylinder walls), or excessive resistance in the starter motor that causes the engine to crank slowly. A starter "amp draw" test can be used to check the condition of your starter. Also, many starters have small "heat shields" to protect them from heat radiating from nearby exhaust pipes or manifolds. If the shield is missing, the starter may get too hot and bind up.

This week, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned an Arizona law passed in 2004 requiring that voters prove their United States citizenship in order to register to vote. The Court ruled in a 7-2 decision authored by Justice Antonin Scalia that states could not impose additional requirements for registration beyond those included in the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (also called the "motor voter" law).
A quick update on where the debate over Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act stands in some of the states still debating what should be a "no-brainer":
With more and more sessions drawing to a close, the latest count shows 15 states that have rejected expanding Medicaid under the Affordable Care Act, 20 that have agreed to comply with the law and expand coverage, and the rest still debating expansion. In many states -- including Florida and Ohio -- that debate is playing out in a contentious intramural fight among conservatives themselves. Conservative governors supporting expansion are running into opposition from ideologically opposed lawmakers in their own party, as the political debate over Medicaid increasingly appears to be taking place entirely on one side of the aisle:
With the debate in D.C. currently centered around exactly how much more federal budget austerity to enact, and with the budget sequester threatening 750,000 jobs nationwide looking more and more likely to go into effect March 1st, the jobless also continue to be under attack in the states. This week, one state signed devastating cuts to their unemployment insurance system into law, another advanced a restructuring of their system that would endanger their federal funding, and efforts to ban employer discrimination against the jobless ran into the veto pen of a billionaire big-city mayor:
In the coming weeks, the Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in two high-profile challenges affecting states directly: Shelby County v. Holder, a challenge to the constitutionality of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act, as well as two cases on same-sex marriage. Arguments in the Voting Rights Act case are scheduled for February 27th, while arguments in the two marriage cases, Hollingsworth v. Perry and United States v. Windsor, are set for late March. States and the Obama administration are already filing briefs in advance of both cases. At the same time, efforts to advance marriage equality continued this week in state legislatures including Minnesota and New Jersey:
With a Supreme Court decision and a presidential election now come and gone, conservatives in many states seem to be having second thoughts about their opposition to the Affordable Care Act. Meanwhile, progressive lawmakers in Iowa and Michigan signaled they were set to introduce legislation on Medicaid expansion:
Last week, a federal district court in Phoenix issued a mixed ruling on Arizona's anti-immigrant SB 1070. Immigrant communities declared partial victory with Judge Susan Bolton's decision to strike down the portion of the law that makes it a crime to drive, live with, or engage in everyday activities with an undocumented individual. This means Arizonans of good faith who interact with or provide spiritual support to an undocumented friend or neighbor no longer have to worry about getting slapped with criminal penalties or arrest. Several SB 1070 copycats — including laws in Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina — feature similar provisions which have also been blocked by federal courts.
Yesterday afternoon, the California State Senate affirmed their state's commitment to smart and cost-effective immigration enforcement by passing the TRUST Act (AB 1081) by a 21-13 vote. The bill's focus on maintaining trust with community members statewide by prioritizing violent and serious criminals instead of casting a wide, expensive, and counter-productive dragnet has spurred many to call it the "anti-Arizona." Introduced by Assemblymember Tom Ammiano, a member of PSN's affiliated State Legislators for Progressive Immigration Policy, the legislation seeks to clarify the relationship between local jurisdictions and the federal Department of Homeland Security's Secure Communities (S-Comm) program.

Plus Oliver Holt on Mario Balotelli, Harry Redknapp, Didier Drogba and more
It was said that last weekend breathed new life into the FA Cup. It was said that the slew of upsets proved there was still magic in the competition. I wish that were right but sadly, the opposite is true.
There are as many Championship teams as Premier League teams in the draw for the fifth round because the Premier League teams don't care.
Sure, there were great wins for Luton Town, MK Dons and Oldham but their Premier League victims all played weakened teams.
So even though Luton's win at Norwich was the first time a non-league side has beaten a team in the top flight for 27 years, it didn't feel as momentous as it should have done.
That's because Norwich care a lot more about avoiding relegation than risking resources against Luton. As for Oldham's victory over Liverpool, it was great theatre, too.
But Brendan Rodgers is more aware than anyone of the reduced currency of the FA Cup. His predecessor, Kenny Dalglish, got to the final last year and then got the sack.
That's the reality: a couple of places higher up the Premier League means more to club boards than winning the world's most famous club cup competition.
I enjoyed watching Mario Balotelli at Manchester City. Whatever his off the field peccadilloes, he is a player of great talent and his move to AC Milan is the Premier League's loss.
But one fact remains: the best football he has played in the last two and a half years was for Italy at Euro 2012. City never saw his A game. Not really.
That should be a consolation for City fans as he heads back home.
Harry Redknapp may profess an ignorance of Twitter but his advice to QPR owner Tony Fernandes betrayed a clear understanding of the social network - if you're looking for praise and affirmation on it, you've gone to the wrong place.
One thing above all others has puzzled me about the reaction of those lamenting the BBC's decision to replace Colin Murray as the presenter of Match of the Day 2. It is the insistence on referring to Murray as 'irreverent'.
Irreverence usually implies some sort of leaning towards iconoclasm, cynicism and maybe even a little self-deprecation.
Murray is none of these things. He is self-aggrandising, fawning to his guests and lazily predictable in his criticism of newspaper journalism. A little irreverence might have kept him in a job.
I don't blame Didier Drogba for choosing Galatasaray ahead of Chelsea. When your last kick for a club won the Champions League, nothing else you might do is quite going to live up to it.

Racial Differences in Marriage and the Role of Marriage Markets
This paper examines the role of marriage markets in explaining racial differences in the timing of marriage. Using data from the National Longitudinal Study of the High School Class of 1972, evidence is presented on the magnitude and significance of differences in the timing of first marriage between whites and blacks in the United States. Further, by matching the 1980 U.S. census to the longitudinal data, the effect on the marriage decision of a variety of measures of the marriage market is examined. This paper examines marriage markets defined at various levels of geographic aggregation, alternative definitions of what males are considered "marriageable," market variables that control for the education level of the participants, and changes over time in marriage markets. One of the primary results of the experimentation with various definitions is that, relative to the local level, the variables defined at the state level are able to account for more of the racial differences in the timing of marriage. The paper concludes with an examination of this issue and reveals evidence that suggests that measurement error in the variables defined at the local level may be underlying this result.Download Info

NB!: If you have used a previous version of TWM, then completely uninstall it before installing the new version. Installation instructions. Simply extract Mod files from archive to your DoW: DC directory with keeping of the directory structure. If you see in your DoW:DC root directory one new directory named as Titanium_Wars_Mod and one new file TitaniumWars.module it means that installation was correct. Titanium Wars Mod ready to launch from Game Manager in DoW:DC. For more comfort Mod launching, create copy of DoW shortcut, open shortcut property and edit run string. Add parameter -modname TitaniumWars. Example of correct run string: "D:\Games\Dawn of War Dark Crusade\DarkCrusade.exe" -forcehighpoly -nomovies -modname TitaniumWars Don't forget about new native shortcut icon titanium.ico. ;-) It located in Mod directory. Launch Mod from new shortcut and enjoy! Old shortcut for classic DoW:DC must be edited with adding parameter -modname Dxp2 for correct launching of classic DoW game. Example: "D:\Games\Dawn of War Dark Crusade\DarkCrusade.exe" -forcehighpoly -nomovies -modname Dxp2 If you want to play campaign you can copy Movies directory from DXP2 directory to Titanium_Wars_Mod directory for seeing intro-movies. If you've used an old version of the Mod before, delete the directory "titaniumwars" from the Profiles directory in your game profile (Profile1 usually) BEFORE installing the new version. It is necessary for proper installation of hot keys and delete old saves. Using old saves with new version of the Mod is not recommended. Uninstallation instructions. Simply delete Titanium_Wars_Mod directory and TitaniumWars.module file from root directory of DoW:DC. Also delete "titaniumwars" directory from the Profiles directory in your game profile (Profile1 usually). For removing TWM-logo, just delete file: Engine\Data\art\ui\textures\wxp_loadscreen_dawn_of_war.dds. Path from DoW root directory. Edited by: GrOrc |

hey i installed the mod but it continually runs me as an AI controlled player when i try to play a skirmish. it's kind of like when you watch a replay. -- When all forms of attack fail, start Exterminatus and blow the f*** out of the planet. Then attack from the front, just incase. |
Dec 8 2012, 3:53pm Anchor | ||
Remove -dev parameter from run string. Don't use -dev parameter in ordinary play. Read installation instruction carefully. |

I have extracted the files into my dark crusade folder but now when I try to start the game it crashes. I am running windows 7 on my computer. |
Jan 11 2013, 5:40am Anchor | ||
Install the Mod correctly. Read installation instructions carefully. Use compatibility mode with WinXP for DoW playing. No any problem under Win7 in skirmish and multiplayer. Only one knowing problem in campaign under Win7. Read the NOTE about it in starter and/or changelog txt-file. No any problem under WinXP 32bit. |

Natural light floods through the salon's large front windows onto leather sofas and a painting of budding tulips. Amid these comforting accents, skilled aestheticians pamper their clients from scalp to toe with indulgent hair-, skin-, and nailcare services. They hydrate strands with invigorating hot-oil treatments and use facials to help reverse damage caused by stress, poor diet, or environmental hazards such as sunshine. The staff also removes unwanted sideburns and mustaches with wax and thread.
At Footprints to Wellness, owner Paula Jurko knows that in order to take the right steps toward wellness, one starts with the feet. She helps alleviate pain and symptoms of health concerns by applying pressure to specific points on the feet that correspond to specific organs in the body. She also preforms raindrop therapy, which applies nine essential oils into the spine and feet to help the body align structurally and electrically. Along with raindrop therapy, she preforms Reiki to balance the body and release tension.
Courtney Sharrock, an Aveda trained hair stylist, specializes in modern cuts, dry hair texturizing, and creative color techniques including ombre. Also a lashologist, she frames her clients' peepers with individually bonded lash extensions available in full-sets or the more subtle cat eye sets, which she applies to the corners of the eyes only.
Before modern-day salons, barbershops were a haven for masculine camaraderie with a side of hair services. When Joe Grondin, a master barber of more than 30 years, opened the first Roosters Men's Grooming Center, he worked to recapture that ambiance, but updated the styling techniques. Today, gents there revel in a slow-paced atmosphere and contemporary services. Patrons sit comfortably during cuts that culminate with aftershave and a dash of powder on the neck and vintage facial shaves, complete with a cleansing and towels warmed by hugs from bald eagles. The stylists and barbers only enlist professional products from brands such as American Crew and Woody's, which are tailored to male hair and emanate fragrances like a bouquet from a Camaro.
After cultivating her holistic training and experience from colleges and private practices in England more than 25 years ago, trained therapist Jayne Bennett made the jump to the States, where she has helped clients with holistic treatments such as reflexology, reiki, and raindrop therapy for more than 13 years. Unlike America or blimps hovering over international waters, England requires therapists to have a background understanding of anatomy and physiology before they can perform reflexology treatments, so Bennett has more knowledge of the human body than many others in her field.
But her expertise isn't limited to reflexology. She also practices the ancient Japanese art of reiki, which reduces stress with a "laying on of hands" technique, and raindrop therapy, which mimics the gentle drizzle of cloud-dwellers' tears by dribbling nine oils across the back and feet. Essential oils distilled from leaves, stems, and bark often accompany Bennett's sessions.
Brizius Massage Therapy is an affordable practice based out of Powell, Ohio off Sawmill Road. My office is located at Harville Chiropractic and I work along side Dr. Mitch Harville. I provide Therapeutic Massage to treat headaches, migraines, stiff neck, lower back pain, shoulder pain, numbness, tingling and much more.

Scenario: You've updated your Facebook status with a really cool post but just realized you've missed a word out. Damn it. Time to quickly delete it and repost before anyone notices – or even worse, you lose any precious likes.
Sound familiar? We've all been there. Thankfully, we won't be going there again.
For the first time, Facebook is letting users edit their posts after the fact. The change has already come to the web and Android in an update; an iOS version is hoped to follow soon.
Like many of Facebook's new features, this will be a gradual rollout, so some users may not be able to see this feature right away. The new ability will let users click to edit a post, then preserve a viewable history of the changes that all friends will be able to see.
For comments, hovering over or tapping a post will reveal a pencil icon on the right that you can click in order to start editing.
Facebook first introduced comment editing in mid-2012, but up until now it held off on letting people actually edit posts.

Waialae won't be a picnic
By Neville Leck Last updated: 9th January 2013
Related Links:
Honolulu tends to conjure up a picture of waving palms, great waves, bronzed surfers and sunny beaches, but don't expect this week's Sony Open at Waialae Country Club to be a picnic.
Seasoned professionals like Davis Love III, who holds the course record of 60, Tim Clark and defending champion Johnson Wagner, as well Johnny-come-lately major winners like Keegan Bradley and Webb Simpson have all had taste of it's wild mood swings and will be well aware of just how brutal this relatively short coastal course can be when they tee off on Thursday.
This essentially because, while Waialae's par-70 course is only 44 yards over 7,000, its illusive fairways are never easy to find, especially when the wind gets up as it so often does, and the 27 Tour rookies who have made the hop from mainland America to make their Tour debuts in the second event on the 2013 Tour-opening Hawaiian swing - they were not eligible for last week's wind-delayed Tournament of Champions at Kapalua as it was limited to 2012 Tour winners only - might be in for a rude shock.
Especially on the opening day when, if the forecasts are right and the same trade winds that wrecked the first three days at Kapalua and saw the Tournament forced into a Tuesday finish, continue to blow.
They are not expected to be anything like as severe in Honolulu this week as they were on Maui last week and the forecast is that they will taper off in the later rounds, but, to start with, they could nevertheless be stiff enough to have even the most accurate drivers off the tee and the very best stroke makers gritting their teeth and grinding away at making acceptable scores.
And with Waialae's driving-accuracy percentage at a low 46.61 and greens-in-regulation stat at 63.03 percent in 2012, it's not too difficult to see why.
Probably the best game plan for this course is to play the par threes and fours cautiously and conservatively but to go for birdies and eagles on the two par fives, the 9th and the 18th - something that was strongly underscored by Wagner last year when he posted two eagles, both on the 18th, and totalled five birdies over the two holes on his way to victory.
Twenty survivors of the wind-lashed Maui mauling are scheduled to tee off in Honolulu this week and of all of them, the comprehensive winner there, Dustin Johnson, might have the best chance of winning here - if is able to summon up sufficient focus not more than 36 hours after hoisting aloft the Tournament of Champions trophy on Maui.
The 28-year-old Myrtle Beach bomber certainly has what it takes to win for, not only is he a fine wind player, he clearly showed at TPC Southwind last year that he has come of age and can sensibly and effectively harness his striking power to suit short courses.
Besides, in the kind of form this 6ft 4in, 2012 US Ryder Cup representative is in right now, there is every reason to believe he might be one of the men who will dominate the golfing headlines this year.
If not, and he hasn't had time to recover from the Maui experience, look to dark horses Clark, Carl Pettersson and Charles Howell III to be up among the front runners when the Sony Open field hits the closing stretch on Sunday.
Clark's game, in the view of some top US tipsters, is perfectly suited to the Waialae track.
The unflappable South African missed last year's Sony Open because of an elbow operation, but it was not for nothing that he was a runner-up at Waialae in 2011 when he was able, on average, to put his approaches closer to the hole than any of his rivals.
Pettersson should be considered a potential winner on the strength of his performances towards the end of 2012 when a tie for 2nd catapulted him into four straight, top-20 finishes and Howell must come into the picture because he is in third place on the list of all-time money winners at Waialae and closed last year's Tour with three Top 15 finishes.
Others who look capable of making a fight of it this week include Simpson, the reigning US Open champion who remains the last rookie to pick up a top-10 at Waialae, in-form 2011 PGA champion Bradley, who finished 4th behind Johnson on Maui on Tuesday and former Masters champion Zach Johnson, who posted a bogey-free, second-round 65 last week and, with victories last year at the Crowne Plaza Invitational and the John Deere Classic, is coming to Honolulu off one of his best seasons in years.

CLEVELAND, OH, April 23, 2011/The Plain Dealer Editorial Board -Top executives of the Cleveland Browns say the team has no interest in serving as the developer of a mixed-use lakefront district just north of the existing stadium and museums. Neither the club nor owner Randy Lerner individually is promising to be a major investor in any such project. Nor are the Browns wedded to the ideas shown in sketches of a sports-oriented district created by architects and consultants retained by the team.
But with all those caveats in place, do not underestimate the importance of what Browns President Mike Holmgren and his executive team are promising to do: convene potential corporate, nonprofit and government partners to jump-start the waterfront development this community has been talking about for more than two decades.
Much of that talk has taken place at meetings set up by planners representing the city or the Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority. Those sessions have produced lots of pretty pictures of what could be done on the water's edge. They have also led to some substantial public investments: North Coast Harbor and Voinovich Park, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, the Great Lakes Science Center and Browns Stadium itself. Business leaders have supported many of these planning exercises and contributed generously to the museum projects. But private investors willing to take the next step — to actually put their own money into commercial or residential development — have been notably absent.
That's what makes the initiative shown by the Browns — themselves a regional icon — so intriguing. If Holmgren and Co. can entice other private-sector players to take a hard look at the lakefront's economic potential and actually get into the game at long last, they will have performed an enormous public service.
Keep in mind that Holmgren and many other members of his front-office team are relative newcomers to Cleveland. Like a lot of transplants, they've been impressed by this region's assets. And yet when they look at our lakefront — typically a magnet for development and urban renaissance in other cities — they're startled by how little has been done to open up the space.
This is a propitious time to change that. More than a billion dollars in construction is under way along the Cuyahoga River and downtown, including the medical mart and convention center just across the Shoreway from Browns Stadium. The city is lining up money to build a marina in North Coast Harbor and trying to kindle interest in private development on and around Burke Lakefront Airport. A commission appointed by Mayor Frank Jackson is studying how best to connect downtown's assets and enhance its public spaces.
It's against that backdrop that the Browns hope to act as catalysts — not for discussion, they say, but for action. If they can help activate the lakefront with both public access and exciting private development, Cleveland's greatest natural asset may finally be in play.

Share: Tweet Paramount Studios presents Preston: You're a monster.
DVD ReviewThe classic E.C. comic books of the 1950s (Tales from the Crypt, The Vault of Horror, and The Haunt of Fear) established a uniquely American style of horror story, in which the primary characters' misdeeds inevitably led to a shocking, twist-driven, often graphically grotesque climax ("Choke! Gasp!"). The controversial comics were eventually forced out of print when the industry subjected itself to the draconian Comics Code, but their hold on the public imagination gave rise to a couple of horror anthology movies in the 1970s and, more recently, a successful HBO television series. They also served as the inspiration for the 1982 George A. Romero / Stephen King feature film collaboration, Creepshow, and its success led to Romero's TV anthology of the 1980s, Tales from the Darkside. In 1990, Tales from the Darkside: The Movie was released, bringing a larger budget and recognizable stars to the E.C.-inspired horror anthology genre.John Harrison directed this collection of three stories, wrapped in a pseudo-fairy tale framing device, starring Deborah Harry as Betty, an upscale witch, and young Matthew Lawrence as Timmy, her intended dinner. Attempting to forestall his fate, Timmy tells the witch scary stories, which, of course, make up the bulk of the film. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Lot 249, heavily modernized, leads off, recounting the story of put-upon college student Bellingham (Steve Buscemi), who uses an ancient Egyptian mummy to exact ritualized revenge on his enemies (Christian Slater, Julianne Moore and Robert Sedgwick). Stephen King's Cat From Hell follows, as an eccentric millionaire (William Hickey) hires hitman Halston (David Johansen) to take on a black cat with an uncanny ability to kill. Finally, Tales from the Darkside veteran Michael McDowell contributes Lover's Vow, in which an artist (James Remar) swears on his life never to tell anyone about the murderous demon he encounters late one night, only to find the secret haunting him ten years later. This movie version of Tales from the Darkside benefits visibly from a larger budget and makeup effects consultation by Hollywood legend Dick Smith, but the stories themselves aren't nearly as solid as the best episodes of the original TV series. Lover's Vow is the strongest of the three, with convincing performances by Remar and Rae Dawn Chong, and a climax that manages to be simultaneously dark and poignant. The other two stories, established authors notwithstanding, are almost completely devoid of humor and charm—they clunk along in thoroughly predictable fashion, and the occasional glimmer of fun gets lost amidst the hokey, conventional storytelling. There are some nicely realized moments, and almost all of the effects are handled on-set, lending a comfortably "live" feel to the proceedings, though some of the puppetry is clumsy, especially in Cat From Hell. Big-name talent lends respectability to the project, and director Harrison is visually competent, making effective use of old-fashioned "wipe" transitions and other cinematic devices, giving a different visual style to each story. But one can't help feeling that the exigencies of low-budget production that gave the TV series its verve and inventiveness were sorely missed when the movie came along. There's something crucial missing here, some sense of risk and joy, lost under the comparatively sophisticated acting, music and effects work. Tales from the Darkside: The Movie isn't nearly as much fun as it should be; see it for Lover's Vow, if at all. Rating for Style: C+ Rating for Substance: C- Image Transfer
Image Transfer Review: Paramount presents Tales from the Darkside in its original 1.85:1 widescreen theatrical aspect ratio, with an anamorphic transfer drawn from a clean source print. The moderately-budgeted production is visibly grainy, with a soft look in general, and the photography favors dark, obscuring shadows that lend a murky appearance to the image overall. This isn't a transfer flaw—what shadow detail is available seems to be presented properly, but the film's dark look becomes tiresome after a while. A decent digital presentation, but not easy on the eyes by any means. Image Transfer Grade: C+ Audio Transfer
Audio Transfer Review: Tales from the Darkside includes its original Dolby 2.0 Surround audio, a monaural French track, and a remixed Dolby Digital 5.1 track. Musical low-frequency content is substantial in the 5.1 mix, with heavy bass "stings" here and there, and a few split surrounds enhance the film's atmospherics (which aren't bad in 2.0 format either). The film has an audibly low-budget analog character, largely centered, with slightly muddy dialogue, unnatural sound effects and subdued music. Nothing impressive here, but the DVD transfer is accurate enough. Audio Transfer Grade: B- Disc ExtrasStatic menuScene Access with 13 cues and remote access Subtitles/Captions in English with remote access 1 Original Trailer(s) 1 Feature/Episode commentary by director John Harrison and screenwriter George A. Romero Packaging: Amaray Picture Disc 1 Disc 1-Sided disc(s) Layers: single Extras Review: Paramount scares up 13 picture-menu chapter stops, optional English subtitles, and a few standard extras: Theatrical Trailer: The film's theatrical trailer is rendered in 1.85:1 anamorphic widescreen, looking grainy and slightly dated. The trailer emphasizes the authors and George Romero's involvement, with rapid-fire shock moments providing the visuals. Commentary by director John Harrison and screenwriter George A. Romero: Director John Harrison (Frank Herbert's Dune) and screenwriter/horror legend George Romero contribute a running commentary, aimed at "the fans" with an emphasis on the stars and the visual style of the movie. The two filmmakers share some entertaining memories about the film's budgetary limitations and production schedule, and Romero also contributes some notes on Creepshow, with which he was more directly involved. There are some silences early on, but it's a solid, entertaining commentary track given the material at hand. Extras Grade: C+ Final CommentsTales from the Darkside: The Movie attempts to bring George Romero's anthology TV series to the big screen, with mixed, surprisingly charmless results. Paramount's DVD provides a decent presentation of the movie, but I'd enthusiastically recommend Creepshow or Creepshow 2 over this one for your Halloween viewing. |

Comedian Amy Schumer. / Neilson Barnard, Getty Images for Comedy Central
Tonight Amy Schumer wraps the first season of her Comedy Central series, and I'm a little sad to see it go.
Inside Amy Schumer has been a breath of fresh 'n' feminist air, mixing Schumer's smart stand-up with inventive sketches and interviews.
Though I'm thrilled it has been renewed for a second season, I'm not sure where else I'll be able find such edgy and female-centric comedy until its return.
If you haven't seen the show, I suggest you start with some of my favorite moments below:
1. "Cancer Excuse." In this darkly funny bit, Amy learns her pal Tig has breast cancer. She then realizes she can use her concern with Tig's health to get out of just about anything. (Note: The sketch features real-life cancer survivor/comedian Tig Notaro, who also writes for the show.)
2. "Makeover." This sketch about a cheery makeover show gone wrong makes me laugh out loud.
3. "Amy Interviews Kenny the Cop." Each episode of the show features a one-on-one interview with someone Amy is curious about, whether it's a dominatrix, precocious little kid or, in this case, an ex-cop who really likes Brad Pitt movies.
The season finale of Inside Amy Schumer airs tonight at 10:30 ET/PT on Comedy Central. The network has a bunch of exclusive video, though note much of it may not be safe for work.

Specificity for CD38
Murine CD38, a type II transmembrane glycoprotein, is a bifunctional ectoenzyme capable of catabolizing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) to cyclic ADP-ribose (cADPR), and then hydrolyzing cADPR to adenosine diphosphoribose (ADPR). It is expressed at high levels on the surface of peripheral B-lineage cells, and at low density on germinal center B cells from unimmunized mice. It has also been reported to be expressed at moderate levels on NK cells, a proportion of peripheral T cells, and a subpopulation of thymocytes which are mostly TCRαβ+, CD4-, CD8-. Murine CD38 is also expressed by all Mac-1+ macrophages in the peritoneal cavities of unimmunized mice, but not by unstimulated bone-marrow-derivedmacrophages. Monoclonal antibodies to CD38 have been shown to induce B- and T-cell proliferation, protect B cells from apoptosis, and inhibit B lymphopoiesis.
