HUD secretary says he can't promise FHA won't need bailout
WASHINGTON -- A top Obama administration official said Thursday he could not guarantee that efforts to shore up a key government housing agency won't save it from needing a taxpayer bailout next year.
But Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan cautioned senators worried about the increasingly precarious finances of the Federal Housing Administration that making hasty changes to its operations could endanger the housing recovery.

Traditional opinion is that a good drug must have a high value of the absolute meaning of the binding energy with target protein in order to prevent the thermal dissociation of the drug-protein complex. In this case an essential deformation of protein arises, which has to be taken into account in developing different models of protein-small molecule and protein-protein interaction, and computing affinity constants in drug discovery in-silico methods. The effect of essential perturbation of protein molecule is ignored in standard computational methods of drug design that can contribute a large mistake to results of calculation, to binding energy, for example.
To demonstrate the existence of the ultimate value of the binding energy two models are considered: macroscopic and microscopic, both giving the same conclusions: the critical value of absolute meaning of binding energy is 50-100kJ/M. If the binding energy exceeds this value, then drug essentially perturbs protein configuration. In a microscopic picture this perturbation is a sequence of irreversible conformational transitions in protein body. In a macroscopic one it is an inelastic deformation of a protein substance. Our estimation agrees with the experimental value (50 kJ /M) of the ultimate energy that can be stored in a protein molecule without its destruction.
The existence of the critical value of binding energy should be accounted in structure based drug design methods where protein molecule is considered in an elastic deformation approximation.

NORMAN — Commissioners propose temporary holding facility for youth offenders
One county commissioner said corrections professionals are displaying a renewed interest in using the old Cleveland County jail as a temporary holding facility for youth offenders.
"There might be some need in the state that Cleveland County might be able to fill on a temporary basis," District 1 Commissioner Rod Cleveland said. "It might make sense that we could fill a void for them (the state) — not permanently in the jail, but temporarily."
At the 9 a.m. Monday commissioners meeting, he said plans are "just all speculation," but he's got a rough idea.
"We'd provide a short-term solution for OJA (the Office of Juvenile Affairs)," Cleveland said. "The problem is we don't have the money, and we're not going to come up with another vote to build something new."
Cleveland said the project would need to "make sense" for the community and the state's juvenile justice agency. Ideally, this would mean the state would help fund the renovations while also allowing the county to retain operational control of the facility.
Sullivan still for storage: District 3 Commissioner Rusty Sullivan — whose April 30 motion to transform the old jail into a cold storage facility failed to achieve a majority vote — said after the meeting that he'd be willing to consider converting the old jail to a youthful offender facility.
Previously, however, he said he thought housing youthful offenders in the old jail would cost the county a vast amount of money.
"We've addressed this once," Sullivan said. "It was going to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to do it. If the state's willing to put up the money, we can look into it. I'll certainly listen to them and see what they want to say."
He said he's not fully aware of what would take place with the second set of plans for converting the old jail to a youthful offender holding facility, but he said the previous set — which would have the facility housing a limited number of youthful offenders — simply didn't make sense.
Sullivan said he still envisions converting the jail to cold storage as ideal due to the minimal costs — just electricity for lights — that would be associated with the facility's use.
He said he's still "categorically against" spending the revenue generated by the quarter-cent tax on anything but the new F. DeWayne Beggs Detention Center.
Skinner supports demolition: District 2 Commissioner George Skinner said after the meeting that his primary goal is to see the old "eyesore" jail torn down, though he's still open to what comes after demolition.
He said maintaining the old building, for a purpose such as housing 12 to 15 youthful offenders, would be expensive. The facility now has 182 beds in it, and the extra space would require heating and cooling.
"If they've (OJA officials have) got the money, they need to help us tear it down and build a building, we can put in 12 beds for them," Skinner said. "I would be glad to talk with OJA and see what they've got in mind. We need to build a building, anyway."

BELOW IS THE PRESS RELEASE FROM THE MILWAUKEE ADMIRALS. For full Admirals coverage, follow our good friends @adsroundtable on Twitter.
Milwaukee, WI— One game after being shutout for the first time this season, the Milwaukee Admirals offense erupted for six goals from six different players to take a 6-3 win over the Lake Erie Monsters on Friday night at the Bradley Center. The win snapped a brief two-game losing streak for the Admirals and put a share of first-place on the line Saturday night against the Charlotte Checkers, who lead the Ads by two points in the Midwest Division.
The Admirals jumped out to a 1-0 lead after the first period on Michael Latta's 11th goal of the season at the 8:55 mark. Ads defenseman Victor Bartley took the puck from the Milwaukee zone and fired it up ice to Blake Geoffrion, who sent a quick pass to a speeding Latta. Latta skated into the Ads zone and then fired a wrister top shelf over the shoulder of Lake Erie goalie Trevor Cann.

Woodward, Okla. —
The 79th annual Woodward District Livestock Show culminated Thursday with a record setting premium auction.
Donations are still being tallied but C. J. Montgomery, president of the Woodward Chamber of Commerce, said he was expecting record numbers.
"Well last night, just through the ring was just under $200,000, and I think by the time of add ons, we should approach $275,000," he said. "That's obviously an estimate, but given the sheer number of the add ons it shouldn't be far off."
That wasn't the only record broken as the evening also featured 9 recipients of the Bud Nelson Scholarship Award.
"The Woodward Chamber of Commerce Livestock Scholarship Committee was so impressed with the quality of this year's applications that, along with great community help and thanks to some additional support from Woodward Car Dealers Irwin Auto Company and McKay Ford and area FFA Chapters, they were able to award a record number of Bud Nelson Memorial Scholarships to 9 impressive recipients," Montgomery said.
Recipients included Haley Reidlinger and Jaci Hodges of Woodward, McKenzie Twyman of Boise City, Alex Naylor of Shattuck, Jillian Whipple of Waynoka, Hammons Hepner and Jacy Gillenwaters of Mooreland, Jenna Trissel of Leedey and Bray Haven of Cheyenne.
"We were obviously pleased to award that many scholarships, and hopefully we'll be able to do it again or even more next year," Montgomery said.
Vernie and Melanie Matt were the co-recipients of the evening's Black Jacket award, an award presented each year to someone who has gone above and above and beyond over the years and proven themselves a true supporter of the District Livestock Show. Vernie Matt is the District 3 County Commissioner and Melanie Matt is the OSU Extension Director for Woodward County.
"The fairgrounds themselves sit in Vernie's district and he goes well beyond his duties towards supporting them, and Melanie has been a driving force behind the District Livestock Show throughout the years with her administrative efforts," Montgomery said.
A moment was taken to honor the families of Jim Eskew and Jim McKay, two previous Black Jacket winners who passed away in the last year.
"This past year we all had to say goodbye much too soon to a couple of tremendous friends, not only to the Woodward District Livestock show but to many of the people here," Montgomery said. "With the passing of Jim Eskew and Jim McKay, show organizers wanted to show their heartfelt thanks to the McKay and Eskew families by holding this year's show in their honor."
Montgomery said he considered this year's show to be an unbelievable success and that hopefully by March of 2015, the show will be able to be held in a completely renovated county fairgrounds.
Montgomery said a number of people and businesses played a role in the success of the livestock show and the premium auction and dinner.
"Thank you all for your assisting in the efforts to make this the best District Livestock Show in Oklahoma," Montgomery said.

So the younger son asks me what I want for Christmas. Its a good question without a very good answer at least one thats not bo-ring, Dad.
I could tell him I want what I know Im getting, the warmth of a holiday with family. But that means little to a 9-year-old whos fortunate enough to have scant understanding of life in struggling and broken homes.
I could give him the standard monologue about wanting him to know why we celebrate this holiday. But thats a message already delivered in our home, enough so that we at least sometimes find the right balance of appreciating whats under the tree and in the manger.
Or maybe I could drop some real weight on him and tell him I dont really want anything. I could explain that I like stuff as much as the next guy, but the stuff I like best on Christmas isnt whats wrapped and ribboned, and it isnt the stuff the household could afford at any point of the year. Its the stuff I cant get for myself.
Yes, I know. Bo-ring. Its hard, isnt it, parents? Hard to explain whats important, especially when so many of us adults lose track of it so easily. And so often, this is the time of year we start searching again for it, for meaning, for something that connects us to something greater. Its interesting where we find it on this day not only in our faith or in our family, but in places we wouldnt expect.
Doug Lebda understands this. Hes the founder and CEO of LendingTree in Charlotte, and last week he embarked upon the annual contemplation of his companys holiday employee gifts.
It had been a great year at LendingTree, with a rising stock price and strong growth, all of which had been reflected in the performance bonuses Doug had already handed out. So in an email Wednesday, he explained that he was doing something different for the gift.
Each of the companys 150 employees would get an envelope with $200 in cash, he said, but he wanted them to give that envelope to someone who needed the cash more. It was their choice, but it would be better if it went to a person, one-to-one, not an organization.
By Friday, before the money had even been handed out to employees, the stories started coming in. One employee said his envelope would go to a wonderful young man who mentors others through a Christian group, has two jobs, and cant afford the gas to see his family in Ohio for Christmas. Another employee said she is thinking of taking the $200 to Walgreens, where shes seen elderly people struggling to pay for the expensive medication they need. One said the money will go to one of his wifes students, who admitted recently that he and his family live under a bridge.
The employees, said Doug, are more excited than hes seen them in the companys 15 years. He thinks he knows why. Its that personal connection, he said Friday morning, before heading off to HR to hand out the envelopes.
By then, Id already come up with what I wanted from my son for Christmas. Its simple, I told him. Do something nice for someone. His choice. Family, friend or teacher. Big gesture or small. Thats what you want? he said. Yes.
He came back, two days later, with this: Theres a girl in his third-grade class whos wanted to play sports with the boys at recess, but the boys havent been so hot on the idea. So this day, he asked her if she wanted to play soccer, and he brought her over to the boys game and included her. She was good, by the way. And she was really happy, my son says. And so was he. A connection. A gift.

Carl trying to appease the player and screwing everyone in the process except himself by hoping fans still come to spend money to watch one player (Tony) Enough said!!!
Now that the trade deadline has come and gone, a lot of Eagles fans are left scratching their heads at why the Eagles did not trade for Tony Gonzalez when they absolutely needed a playmaking tight end.Well, you can't say they didn't try.
ESPN's NFL insider Chris Mortensen Reports that the Philadelphia Eagles did indeed offer the Chiefs asking price of a 3rd rounder for Tight End Tony Gonzalez. When initially turned down the Eagles threw in another piece to sweeten the deal but the Kansas City Chiefs still did not accept their offer.
The Chiefs are telling everyone that they did not receive what they were asking for. Well, they asked for a 3rd rounder and the Eagles provided a 3rd round pick plus another pick/player for the Hall-of-fame bound Tight end and they still did not make the trade. This has left Tony Gonzalez scratching his head and feeling disrespected by the team that he has done so much for.

Jared Leto, Lindsay Lohan, Judah Friedlander, Ursula Abbott, Jeane Fournier
Directed by Jarrett Schaeffer
Don't hammer this film for trying to get inside the head of Mark David Chapman before he shot John Lennon outside the rock legend's New York apartment on December 8th, 1980. Hammer it instead for failing to do soith any depth or insight. It's not that Jared Leto, who gained nearly seventy pounds to play Chapman, doesn't attack the role with all he's got. It's that J.P. Schaefer's film, with Lindsay Lohan as another Lennon fan, has nothing to say. Schaefer obsesses that Chapman metennon while carrying a copy of J.D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye, which ends at Chapter 26. Did Chapman think of the murder as his ending to Salinger's Holden Caulfield saga? Such conjecture prompts just one response: Thanks for nothing.

Immigration challenges plague foreign entrepreneurs who want to build startups in the U.S. Beyond worrying about individual visa status, a founder has to worry about tax laws in the U.S., and for example, predict how a requirement to repatriate proceeds may impact a company's bottom line.
A foreign founder also is subject to the judgment of an individual immigration officer assigned to review his or her case at random. An officer may or may not see the business as legitimate, and can send the entrepreneur packing.

The built-in banquette makes this spot a favorite place for everyday uses or large gatherings. Mohair and leather are great options for seating because they're long-lasting even with heavy use. The Tibetan scroll painting is surrounded by a Baroque-style mirror frame, giving it an eclectic look. Tortoise vases, dried hydrangeas, large candelabras and an oversized African weave pillow complete the room.

Breathby Tim Winton
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Breath is Tim Winton at his finest: a beautiful, gripping, deeply moving novel about our need for excitement and to push ourselves to the limits; about the power of the sea; and how ordinary people live with tragedy. When Loonie and Pikelet started to surf, they cycled from Angelus to the beach with their styrofoam boards, buffeted by the wind and, when they finally get to the sea, the waves. They couldn?t help it: they were terrified; they were addicted. Among the local surfers, one guy stood out. He turned up alone, when the swell was highest, and left the rest of them for dead. Gradually Loonie and Pike got to know this loner, Sando, who took them under his wing. Half a lifetime later, Pike can?t free himself from where the ride took him. With Breath, Tim Winton's writing has attained a new level of mastery. This book confirms his standing alongside Ian McEwan and Philip Roth as one of the major chroniclers of the human condition, a writer of novels that are at the same time simple and profound, relentlessly gripping and deeply moving. One of Publisher Weekly's Best Books of the Year 2008.

GOP trapped by welfare, Romney
I had to laugh when I saw Mitt Romney and the GOP gang, with this issue of Ann Romney being a stay-at-home mom. But when the GOP is on the campaign trail they claim that the welfare stay-at-home moms need to get out and get a job so they can have dignity. Does this mean Ann Romney does not have dignity because she doesn't get out and get her a 40-hour a week job?
Hey Republicans, you can't have it both ways. Hypocrites again.

Issues of China's rural development and policies
Purpose – China's economic and social structure are changing quickly since the start of the new century and how to balance the urban-rural development has become a key point of the further development of the whole economy. Based on a brief review of rural policies since the new century, the paper aims to investigate whether these policies are successful and discusses what the government should do next as well as how to improve the reform and development of rural economy. Design/methodology/approach – The paper reviews the framework of China's rural policy since 2000 in the first section. Then, the impact of the financial crisis on rural development is analyzed. In the third section, this paper discusses the new issues of current rural reform and development. Findings – The current rural polices are successful and have improved rural economic and social development greatly in the past six years. However, new problems have appeared such as insufficient funds for rural public services, inefficiency of agricultural subsidies, and unfair treatment of rural migrant workers and so on. The impact of the financial crisis on rural development is not as bad as anticipated. Originality/value – The paper reviews the main policies of China's agriculture and rural development and points out the new issues during the rural reform. The impact of the financial crisis on rural development is discussed also. The paper's findings are very important for future policy making.Download Info

"unintelligible any way you read it" says the banker?
So? So is the legal gibberish-speak he and his fellow finance industry co-workers have put since decades into the contracts they had main street people sign for mortages, credits, deposits and whatever services else this 'industry' offers.
Time they taste some of their own medicine.
"The direct annual cost to JPMorgan Chase of these regulations is not going to be $400 billion-600 billion as we first wrote. A figure between $400m and $600m is rather closer to the mark."
Which, bear in mind, is less than 1% of the annual income of these companies. (JP Morgan-Chase netted 41.5 billion in 2010). http://finance.yahoo.com/q/is?s=JPM
That doesn't sound like a huge, unreasonable burden to me.
It's not intended to be a huge, unreasonable burden to JP Morgan-Chase. It is intended to be an impediment to any potential new competitor in the field. Monopolies like that sort of thing.
Very well done, thank you!
Great Article, well researched! But Why could you not have published it BEFORE Dodd Frank became entombed in law??? There were no lack of economists and financiers pointing out the same defects you mention.
This reminds of the "Save the city article" in how poor the anaysis is. The Economist still takes the default position that present financial system is fine and just needs tweaking. The financial system needs a radical overhaul. The vast majority of financial transactions are zero-sum games. This massive activity is used to justify exorbitant fees a system of creaming off genuinely created wealth.
The regulation has added to the cost of but when you compare the regulation's cost to the size of the balance sheets in question then it should not be much of an issue. Unless of course finance is over-leveraged to try and extract as much money because the initial investment was so marginal? I think the answer to this question will lead on to the correct judgement on the regulation.
after reading the Dodd Frank Story it is no wonder the Asian are squeamish about advice from a Democracy unable to separate the political system mission from the economic system's mission.
Would not forcing financial institutions to have very high capital reserve ratios strip away the need for such complex financial regulations? It would make banks more stable, leave the government on the hook for less, and because any failure would mean the banks' own reserves being lost (and not the taxpayers), hopefully ensure wiser investment decisions.
I wish our correspondent would take a closer look at the activity that is allegedly stifled by this regulation. If it is the sort of parasitism that produces no good, for which the hedge fund industry is famous, then why cry over its death? Moving money from others' pockets into bankers' funds is not inherently useful. It does not increase GDP. I understand that hedge fund managers and bankers enjoy the results of such activity, but that is rather beside the point.
Moreover, I should think that The Economist would discourage running with a story backed by biased sources' mostly off-the-record whining. Obviously bankers will cry about new rules, especially ones as onerous as these seem to be, but that does not a story make. I would expect a more critical assessment of Mr. Dimon's thoughts, for example.
Lastly, clearly regulation for the sake of regulation and self-initiated exponential bureaucratic growth are bad. In essence, this is what is wrong with the modern industrialized state: the tendency to pile on more rather than trimming, modernizing, and improving. I do not intend to claim otherwise, just that bankers themselves are an intrinsic part of this corporatist problem. They do not deserve special treatment or an exemption from criticism on the part of papers such as this one.
if there was no good in the industry it would not exist. No one creates an economic activity for the sake of creating it. Now if we look at the US alone, the financial markets are responsible for financing most of the economic activity in that country, unlike Europe that relies mostly on banks for that financing.
I'm afraid that that rationale also justifies the existence of the bureaucracy that this article aims to criticize: it would not exist if it produced no good. Something's existence does not imply its worthiness. Or, to bastardize the meaning of the phrase, 'is' does not itself imply 'ought', and the American corporate-bureaucratic pseudo-market economy is a perfect case in point.
Of course, the hedge fund industry and the bureaucracy do create some good: for their practicers and enablers. Hedge fund managers and directors of bureaucracies do quite well for themselves.
unlike the economic activity, bureaucracy is created to get in the way. It is purposeful. The economic activity is created to satisfy a need or a want whereas bureaucracy, particularly regulation, should be created to address a specific concrete problem, not a perceived or foreseen one. An economic activity that is created before there is a need or a want may or may not succeed. A regulation that is created before a problem exists only gets in the way. That is the difference.
The more complex the rule, the more easy to avoid it...
Volcker rule is a half done job. Won't solve our problems.
I'm sorry to say the obvious (which bankers put great effort in transforming from obvious to doubtfull into people's heads), but in order to avoid "Too Big to Fail", you must take the Big, out of this sentence. SO JUST SPLIT THEM !!!! And when a 1/4 of current size CitiBank says it is about to go under, market won't panic, but rather make a task force team to rob all its clients
Right, the financial sector didn't complain about regulations to prevent firms that were too big to fail from failing until breaking them up was off the table.
While I was driving to work, I hear on the radio there are 27 regulatory agencies oversee financial services. They are stepping on each other of conflicting regulations.
One agency said the floor must be smooth, because it may hide germs. Another agency said it should not be smooth, because people can slip on it.
In addition, do not forget there is Federal Government agency for health, state agency for health, county agency for health, city agency for health. And there are industrial agencies for safety from all sorts of government level, etc….
Obama nominate all sorts of 'Tsars'. There are more 'Tsars' than the whole Roman empire in history.
Obama appointed another 'Tsars' for a 'new' consumes protection agency over the New Year recess, in addition to GOD knows how many consumer protection agencies.
Do you see the reasons why the 'west' is in decline?
The top 10 largest banks in America combined are larger now that they were prior to the financial collapse of 2008.
Dodd Frank is a political red herring gimmick.
Agreed. Higher compliance cost punnish smaller firms.
The Economist publishes this article in a time of American optimism. Yet only a few years ago when it was passed were wondering why more regulation of Wall Street did not exist. Mr Madoff must wryly smile as he ponders your assessment from his cell.
No regulator or law will stop the financial gurus of present day banking from speculation as long as:
1) Margin requirements are so low and so lax;
2) Tax rates on short term profits remain so low (and in some jurisdictions, no taxes at all
3) Derivatives continue to grow, for beyond the nominal value of the underlying securities.
If Greenspan had raised margin requirements back in the 1990s, the tech bubble and financial collapses of the bast 15 years would not have happened. The root of all bubble and their subsequent crashes is the rise of leveraged transactions. Take the leverage out, and bubbles do not happen.
The banks' big lucrative customers today are hedge funds and private equity who are enjoying some of the lowest tax rates in modern economic history. True long term investors are screwed at the expense of the US economy in order to feed these speculators. If we had capital gains tax structure of the 1950s, the US would not be in a boom bust scenario as it is now.
Derivates are another big money maker for the banks because no one can verify the pricing or spreads. The alphabet street listing of derivative products (SVU, CDS, SWAP) far out numbers those of the regulators. No one should be able to trade in a derivative unless the own the underlying or have the CASH to buy the underlying right out. Only then are they truly a hedge and not merely a big poker game.
"...there is an ever-more-apparent risk that the harm done by the massive cost and complexity of its regulations, and the effects of its internal inconsistencies, will outweigh what good may yet come from it."
No. Not when the "good" that comes from it is preventing crooks from overleveraging other people's money to such an extent that the economy is brought to its knees. If the "free market" (a fantasy) really had an "invisible hand" that took care of this, fine. But it doesn't.
Notice how complicated passenger airplanes have gotten? Some of that complexity is to make them go faster, but most of it is to make them safer. Are they more expensive to build and maintain? Sure. Would you rather be flying in a Lockheed Electra?
Please, I realize the Economist is to the Right of Center...but that's no reason to talk stupid.
a passenger airline is composed of well-defined parts which can all be individually tested and then assembled into a coherent whole which conforms to a well-understood physical model. the banking system is nothing like this.
Maybe it is now, but there were a hell of a lot of crashes getting us to this point.
"After the crisis of 2008, finance plainly needed better regulation."
Really? We have had law after law passed since the Securities Act of 1933. None of them stopped the "crisis".
But the next law, sure that one will be the magic bullet.
Where were you when the most effective of those laws was repealed? Asleep?
Then let us bring back Glass Stegal. Away with Dodd and Frank.
The complexity of Dodd/Frank is directly caused by resistance to the simple effectiveness of Glass Steagall. Complex laws, given enough complex lawyers, can be circumvented by those who have the money. The rest of us can suck hind tit, they don't care.
Obama would have liked nothing better than to wave his hand and re-impose G/S. Do you honestly think he could have, given the filibuster? Honestly?
There is an easy solution to this. End all federal preemption of banking and end federal authority to charter banks. Let all banks abide by the laws in the states in wich they choose to operate. If a state wishes to ban branch banking, regulate interest rates or exercize any other regulatory function they should be free to do so. Under this approach banks would operate under a state charter which could be revoked for severe regulatory violations.
Yes, and the politicians whose campaigns are underwritten by those banks will revoke their charters if they break the rules. Uh-huh. All the while states DO NOT compete like mad to be more "user-friendly" than their neighbors, creating a race to the bottom of safety and honesty. Of course, not.
You are a dreamer.
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency can grant a national charter to a bank at which point it is no longer subject to many laws which govern locally chartered banks.
Many state Attorneys General would like to investigate banking practices but they have no power to do so if the bank is nationally chartered.
Just sayin'
Working as intended, obviously
"Jamie Dimon, JPMorgan Chase's boss, reckons the direct costs to his bank, America's largest, will be $400 billion-600 billion annually"
This seems like a typo or a rather hyperbollic statement from Mr. Dimon
The law is becoming as complex as the whole system.
With derivatives and offshore account it possible to circumvent
almost any limits set by the rules.
Nobody understands anything because nobody wants anything to be understood.
The devil is in the details.
Just get rid of the lawyers and the lobbyist who will push hard to loophole the whole legislation with some very technical details only
understood by them at the end of the bills.
This is what happens when the shear audacity of the greed of a few jeopardizes the well-being of the entire Nation.
So now bankers are over-regulated? They have to spend more to make more? How horrible for them. Bankers get to go home at the end of the day. The masses of people effected by their greed do not.
This is exactly what the banking industry needs, perhaps they are intelligent enough after all to realize that this is a direct result of the actions they chose to take without even the slightest inkling of ethics. Had we allowed them to fail in the first place (it's called "capitalism"), the wrong-doers would already be out of business and their assets acquired by those who acted ethically and responsibly in the first place. We botched that, though, by bailing these idiots out.
Time for the corporate entity of the bank to Man-up and accept the consequences of their actions- just like big boys do. It's called Responsibility.
You want them to "man up" by supporting the legislation that institutionalizeses bail outs?
This position makes no sense.
You make the mistake of a bigot by lumping all banks together and targeting them for "punnishment". Some banks were more responsible than others. Some banks were well managed. In a more free system those banks would be buying up the scraps from institutions which were managed poorly. Under Dodd-Frank failure is coddled as innovation and start-ups are crushed.
I, too am longing for a free-market capitalism, where those who fail are allowed to fail, instead of the single largest socialist action, which was to bail them out.
I agree that dodd-frank is terrible legislation; Glass-Stegall ought to have never been repealed. Those who were not part of the problem ought not be punished, however, I am very happy to see things hard on bankers. I don't want them to support the legislation- I want them to suffer, just as they have caused an enormous amount of loss and suffering due only to their immense greed.
I am unwilling to listen to anyone, ever again, talk about how "hard it is on the banks". When the bankers who caused this are jailed and banned from banking, and those who lost their homes move into the former bankers homes, then perhaps I'll have some sympathy for who's left in banking. Until then, all politicians and bankers who participated in the bail-out are pieces of human waste that deserve pain, death and banishment.

The MLB Weekend Top 10: Does Anyone Love the AL East?
Like the man at no. 10 during the Dodgers-Diamondbacks brawl, let's jump right into the fray.
10. Yasiel Puig, the Cienfuegos Slammer (LAD-PIR)
I left Puig off the list last week, and certain factions were upset. So here he is, in all his shiny glory. But a word of warning: Sure, the guy has been playing well, but it's a small sample size. He's due to regress. (Last sentence intended exclusively for the desk of Jay Caspian Kang.)
9. This Week's Reason to Watch the Royals (KCR-TAM)
I'll give you two, both related to Tampa, the team they're facing. The first is a positive — Ben Zobrist is murdering the ball over the past seven days, and Evan Longoria is hitting for a lot of power. And the negative: Ugly regression has kicked in big-time for Matt Moore. Nine days ago, he was 8-0 with a 2.18 ERA. His FIP and xFIP numbers, which attempt to reduce statistical noise and regulate any good or bad luck the pitcher is experiencing, predicted that his undefeated joyride wouldn't last long. And man, those nerdy nerd stats were right. In his past two starts, Moore has allowed 14 earned runs in seven innings, lost both games, and watched his carefully cultivated ERA rise from 2.18 to 3.78. It's almost like he sold his soul to the devil for one-third of an awesome season, and when the devil collected, the universe showered him with all the bad luck he'd staved off. Or something. Anyway, it'll be fascinating to see if he can recover as the year goes along, or if he's been put in his place by statistical karma for good.
8. Hot Bat of the Week: Adam Dunn (CWS-HOU)
Six games, four jacks, .348/.444/.913 line. That'll do. Unfortunately, the White Sox are facing Houston, who will almost certainly shut him down.
[Hold for laughs.]
[Hold for the kind of applause that follows laughs.]
[Hold for silence.]
[Wait 10 seconds.]
[Repeat the joke.]
7. The Weekend of the Mismatch
There are just a ton of matchups between really good and really bad teams, and it probably won't be fun. But if you're a little off and enjoy that kind of thing, don't miss Reds vs. Brewers, Pirates vs. Dodgers, Diamondbacks vs. Padres, A's vs. Mariners, Yankees vs. Angels, Tigers vs. Twins, Rangers vs. Blue Jays, and Rays vs. Royals. Am I missing any? Oh yeah …
The worst team in baseball is playing the best. You are compelled to watch at least one inning. If you watch any more, you're a sadist. If you watch any less, you're a coward.
5. I Leave This Spot Blank in Protest
Here at the MLB Weekend Top 10, we take it as a personal insult if anyone watches anything other than baseball, ever. That being said, desperate times call for desperate measures, and on weekends like this, when the matchups and narratives leave much to be desired, we may be more lenient than normal. You want to watch the U.S. Open? Sorry, we were looking the other way. Did the channel change? Didn't notice. You think LeBron vs. the Spurs might be more compelling? We'll be outside taking a stroll, unable to monitor how you operate your remote control. You want to spend time with your loved ones? OK, don't get greedy.
Seriously though, we'll even offer you our own alternative:
4. The College World Series
I encouraged you to check out the super-regionals last week, and now that the eight best teams are in Omaha, I encourage you DOUBLY. Baseball championships aren't meant to be decided in three-game series or double-elimination tournaments, but man, when circumstances force it on us, it is really, really exciting. If you watch just one game, make it the North Carolina–NC State derby on Sunday at 3 p.m. Not only is there a ton of hatred and resentment between these two schools (for the full sociological take, read this post), but they've nurtured a really great rivalry this season that culminated in an epic 2-1 UNC win in the ACC tournament. I'm personally excited that they'll meet in Omaha, if only to witness the impending Triangle Twitter meltdowns as decades (centuries?) of mutual disdain rises to the surface. But in this case, the baseball is attraction enough.
3. Pitcher's Duel of the Week: Hisashi Iwakuma vs. Bartolo Colon (Sunday, SEA-OAK)
I went into some pretty insane detail on Iwakuma's incredible abilities (and why I love him) in last week's pitchers' duel diary, so a link will have to suffice for that side of the equation. As for Bartolo Viejo, the 40-year-old medical miracle with an 8-2 record and a 2.92 ERA, I don't know what to say. He's still hitting 93 mph on his fastball, FanGraphs has his slider valued as the fourth-best in baseball, and reports from the A's clubhouse indicate that he eats three full pizzas before every game — four if he's starting. I have two questions about his performance. First, is he juicing? Second, is everyone just kind of ignoring it because he plays in Oakland? Like the way people ignore syringes and dogshit on the sidewalk in really bad neighborhoods, but the people in gated communities would hold a town meeting if a broken Snapple bottle was left on their streets for more than 60 seconds? I don't know.
But I do know this: We missed a Adam Wainwright–Matt Harvey pitchers' duel by ONE DAY. And it lived up to the hype! The PDotW has never held the no. 1 spot in the top 10, but that might have been the first.
2. The Great San Francisco De-Cooling (SFG-ATL)
Apparently, San Francisco is not cool anymore because of all the douchebags. The new square spirit of the city has also infected the baseball team, which has outlived its fun, innocent, Lincecum days and become just a little bit mediocre. And weirdly enough, it's not because of the offense, which has been better than average. This time it's the pitching; the Giants have given up 297 runs, third-worst in the National League. Starters used to be the backbone of this team, but now they've put up the 25th-worst ERA in the entire sport, and the competent bullpen can't rescue them. (Though that's a bit like asking a Monday morning cleanup crew to save a frat house from being ravaged by drunks, right?) The sad part is, nobody has been good. Madison Bumgarner has been OK, but the rest have been downright poor. This is a team that would have killed for a decent offense two years ago, but now that that hole has been plugged, another, more critical leak is threatening to bring them below .500.
1. The Killer Bs (BOS-BAL)
You might have deduced by now that this is a pretty blah weekend for baseball. The only really compelling series is Boston-Baltimore, and even then, I feel like these teams inspire fatigue. Here's my list of the top five fatigue-inspiring teams, the ones nobody wants to hear about anymore, regardless of how well they're playing. The Tim Tebows of the baseball world, if you will:
Honorable Mention: Mets — They inspire a lot of comedy, saving them from the top 5
5. Rays — Terrible fans, terrible park, always on the verge but never there. Better when they were called "Devil Rays."
4. Athletics — Everybody plays Moneyball now, but Oakland is still good. That's tiresome, and the name "Billy Beane" is too cute for its own good.
3. Orioles — The sad part of this team improving is how clear it's become that they'll never win anything meaningful.
2. Yankees — Everyone hates the Yankees, but the fact that the roster is old and hurt adds a kick of malaise. The mononucleosis of baseball teams right now.
1. Red Sox — They are the erratic girlfriend who has cut your clothes into tiny pieces for no reason, or the boyfriend who gets jealous when you talk on the phone to a male customer service rep from Time Warner Cable. So much drama, so little payoff, and only vague memories of the good times.
We don't even get Clay Buchholz in this series! That being said, it's the best we've got. I guess I should just quit complaining and thank my lucky stars that I can watch the whole series because of Major League Baseball's sensible plan for distribution of television rights.

Columbus Ave, San Francisco
My latest exploration takes me along Columbus Avenue in San Francisco. Columbus may be a very familiar and well known street to most people. It runs diagonal across San Francisco from the Fisherman's Wharf to the Financial District ending at Montgomery.
It is interesting that the only information on the internet that I found about Columbus Ave was on Wikipedia and a Via (CSAA) article written by Camille Cusumano in June 2004.
I use Columbus Avenue as a major street artery that connects me to many diverse points of interest crossing from Market to Fisherman's Wharf. Columbus goes through the North Beach neighborhood (although you won't see a beach today) where there is an Italian influence by Washington Square. It is situated between Russian Hill and Telegraph Hill (where Coit tower is).
You may view one of the crookedest streets, Lombard St., and easily roam into Chinatown and the Financial District by the Pyramid Building. This area is packed with lots of history – from the old Barbary Coast (1800's) to the Beat Generation (1950s) and writers like Jack Kerouac. Be careful if you are driving, you will find confusing five and six way intersections. Originally part of Montgomery Ave, the street was changed to Columbus in honor of the Italian population.
Walking Tour Starts at Fisherman's Wharf
I think the best way to experience Columbia Ave is by a walking tour. Start at Fisherman's Wharf (at the sign in my picture) and I predict you will not be able to go the full length without stopping at cafes, restaurants, book stores, bakeries, and even nightclubs. I really don't want to recommend one over the other as you discover each one on your own. I found a fabulous little neighborhood restaurant with great pizza after watching Beach Blanket Babylon.
Five Recommends Sightseeing:
- City Lights Bookstore
- Francis of Assisi – The city's namesake which also contains a small reproduction of Basilica of San Francesco d'Assisi
- Sts. Peter and Paul Church (Washington Square) – This is where Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe came for photos after they were married at City Hall.
- Stinking Rose Restaurant, 325 Columbus Ave, (415) 781-767 (Delicious! if you like garlic)
- Beach Blanket Babylon – One of a kind San Francisco theater, never boring (415) 421-4222 Open Wednesday - Sunday

After decades of using very exact printing to take notes for work, and having my printed note-taking severely criticized and corrected for legibility during a surveying course, I recently discovered that I had almost forgotten how to write in cursive! I decided to give it a shot again, and I've been finding that the things I write in cursive, I remember better. I can't explain it, but somehow it seems to stick more. I've also found that it feels really strange to my hand after so long away - as though it uses different muscles. Now I wonder whether it might exercise different grey matter, too.

Kim Kardashian baby pics: Does North West look like her mom?
Kim Kardashian has been on radio silence since giving birth to her first daughter, North, with boyfriend Kanye West. Fans on Twitter and Instagram haven't been getting their daily dose of Kardashian kraziness in the days since she gave birth, though that might change when mom Kris Jenner's new talk show premieres on July 15.
In lieu of actually being able to see baby North West (hey, at least we know her name!), it seems fair to speculate what she could look like. A source tells E! News that the newborn "has dark hair. She looks just like Kim."
And what did Kardashian look like as a baby? Well, she's already answered that question a number of times on her Instagram account. Thanks to the trend of Throwback Thursday, Kardashian has posted a number of pictures of her as a young child which can be viewed below.
Do you think North will look like Kardashian?
