Dear Paul,
The stock market has rallied over the past 5 weeks. Is this the beginning of the new bull market or is this a bear market rally that will be followed by new stock market lows? When do you think this bear market recession will end?
Economists often say that the stock market always starts to go up before the "real economy" recovers and often goes up before a recession ends. That is only partially true.
First off, an investor has to make a distinction between the economy in "real time" and the time it takes the government to collect data and formally release that data. As you may recall, the government formally declared the current recession started in December 2007, but it took them until November of 2008 to report this fact.
The stock market reached its peak in October of 2007 and started to decline after that. It seems that the stock market anticipated by about two months the coming December recession. But the actual recession didn't happen overnight.
Investors started to see sales and profits weaken in October and they could see the impact the housing crisis was having on the economy.
So it might be more accurate to say that the stock market was giving us a "real time" signal that the economy was starting to decline even though it took the government some time to assess that decline and formally declare it a recession.
The same will be true in the next real bull market. Investors in the stock market, at that time, will start investing in stocks as they see companies starting to re-order raw materials and increase manufacturing and increase inventories as executives start to anticipate new sales. When many companies start to do this, the economy will start to reverse direction and that will be the start of the next real bull market.
However, until the real, underlying economy starts to expand, any short term stock market rally is by definition a bear market rally that will go up for a few weeks or months and then drop down reaching new lows.
This happened during the first three months in the recession year of 2002 and then the stock market dropped dramatically hitting new post-9/11 lows.
I fear that will happen again with this current bear market rally. I don't believe the rally will last and I believe the market will be 15% to 20% lower by the end of 2009.
There Is No Good News In The Economy Right Now!
Here is my reasoning as to why this current stock market rally is not the start of a new bull market and recovery. Over the past two quarters, it felt like the U.S. and world economies were dropping off a cliff. The only good news is that the worst drops may be over and the declines have now moderated. But make no mistake about it, they are still declining.
Unemployment is growing by over 600,000 people per month, but even if we go down to only 300,000 to 400,000 people being laid off each month, the economy will still be declining.
Housing foreclosures continue to spike up each month and are now not expected to peak until the first quarter of 2010. Housing prices throughout the nation continue to decline even though sales (at bargain basement prices) are starting to increase in some cities.
Manufacturing continues to decline globally and more businesses are going into bankruptcy.
The recent financial sector rally started after accounting changes were approved for the big banks. They all reported profits last quarter. But the bad news is if it were not for those accounting changes, all of the big banks would have announced significant losses. I always hate it when accounting changes try to make the banks look better than they really are.
It is hard for me to see any good news in the real, underlying economy that would herald a new bull market.
What Others Are Saying…
Nouriel Roubini, a professor of economics at New York University who has accurately predicted almost every turn in the global economy for the past few years had the following to say earlier this week.
"The stock market's latest 'dead cat bounce' may last a while longer, but three factors will, in due course, lead it to turn south again. First, macroeconomic indicators will be worse than expected, with growth failing to recover as fast as the consensus expects.
Second, the profits and earnings of corporations and financial institutions will not rebound as fast as the consensus predicts, as weak economic growth, deflationary pressures and surging defaults on corporate bonds will limit firms' pricing power and keep profit margins low.
Third, financial shocks will be worse than expected.
At some point, investors will realize that bank losses are massive, and that some banks are insolvent. Deleveraging by highly leveraged firms—such as hedge funds—will lead them to sell illiquid assets in illiquid markets. And some emerging market economies—despite massive IMF support—will experience a severe financial crisis with contagious effects on other economies.
So, while this latest bear-market rally may continue for a bit longer, renewed downward pressure on stocks and other risky assets is inevitable.
To be sure, much more aggressive policy action (massive and unconventional monetary easing, larger fiscal-stimulus packages, bailouts of financial firms, individual mortgage-debt relief, and increased financial support for troubled emerging markets) in many countries in the last few months has reduced the risk of a near depression. That outcome seemed highly likely six months ago, when global financial markets nearly collapsed. Still, this global recession will continue for a longer period.
There may be light at the end of the tunnel—no depression and financial meltdown. But economic recovery everywhere will be weaker and will take longer than expected. The same is true for a sustained recovery of financial markets."
When Will This Recession End?
I know that everyone would like to see the stock market rebound and the new bull market start as soon as possible, but looking at the economy and stock market through "rose colored glasses" is almost always a severe investing mistake.
At Foxhall Capital, we try to look at the U.S. and global economies as dispassionately as we can. We try to eliminate bias and emotion by using a quantitative, computer-based process of analyzing the world's stock markets.
Academic studies show that in the short-term, meaning a few weeks or months, the stock market can rally for all sorts of political or other rational or irrational reasons.
However, over the long-term, meaning any 12-month period of time, the stock market almost always reflects the underlying direction of the economy.
Optimism Contains Two Traps
The Economist magazine recently published an article on April 23, 2009 that I think was one of the best explanations of the current situation. They said, "Optimism contains two traps, one obvious, the other more subtle. The obvious trap is that confidence proves misplaced—that the glimmers of hope are misinterpreted as the beginnings of a strong recovery when all they really show is that the rate of decline is slowing. The subtler trap, particularly for politicians, is that confidence and better news create ruinous complacency. Optimism is one thing, but hubris that the world economy is returning to normal could hinder recovery and block policies to protect against a further plunge into the depths.
It is easy to read too much into the gain in share prices. Stock markets usually rally before economies improve, because investors spy the promise of fatter profits before the statisticians document a turnaround. But plenty of rallies fizzle into nothing. Between 1929 and 1932, the Dow Jones Industrial Average soared by more than 20% four times, only to fall back below its previous lows. Today's crisis has seen five separate rallies in which share prices rose more than 10% only to subside again."
Here Are The Signs To Look For In A "Real Recovery"
The Economist magazine article went on to look at what needs to happen for a real recovery. "The economic statistics are hard to interpret, too. The past six months have seen several slumps, each with a different trajectory. The plunge in manufacturing is in part the result of a huge global inventory adjustment. With unsold goods piling up and finance hard to come by, firms around the world have slashed production even faster than demand has fallen. Once firms have run down their stocks they will start making things again and the manufacturing recession will be past its worst.
Even if that moment is at hand, two other slumps are likely to poison the economy for much longer. The most important is the banking crisis and the purge of debt in the bubble economies, especially America and Britain. Demand has plummeted as tighter credit and sinking asset prices have exposed consumers' excessive borrowing and scared them into saving more. History suggests that such balance-sheet recessions are long and that the recoveries which eventually follow them are feeble.
The second slump is in the emerging world, where many economies have been hit by the sudden fall in private cross-border capital flows. Emerging economies, which imported capital worth 5% of their GDP in 2007, now face a world where cautious investors keep their money at home. According to the IMF, banks, firms and governments in the emerging world have some $1.8 trillion-worth of borrowing to roll over this year, much of that in central and eastern Europe. Even if emerging markets escape a full-blown debt crisis, investors' confidence is unlikely to recover soon.
These crises sent the world economy into a decline that, on several measures, has been steeper than the onset of the Depression. The International Monetary Fund's (IMF) latest World Economic Outlook expects global output to shrink by 1.3% this year, its first fall in 60 years. But the collapse has been countered by the most ambitious policy response in history. Central banks have pumped out trillions of dollars of liquidity and, in rising numbers, have resorted to an increasingly exotic arsenal of "unconventional" firepower to ease credit markets and loosen monetary conditions even as policy rates approach zero.
Governments have battled to prop up their banks, committing trillions of dollars in the process. The IMF has new money. Every big rich country has bolstered demand with fiscal stimulus (and so have many emerging ones). The rich world's budget deficits will, on average, reach almost 9% of GDP, six times higher than before the crisis hit.
The Depression showed how damaging it can be if governments don't step in when the rest of the economy seizes up. Yet action on the current scale has never been tried before and nobody knows when it will have an effect—let alone how much difference it will make.
Whatever the impact, it would be a mistake to confuse the twitches of an economy on life-support with a lasting recovery. A real recovery depends on government demand being supplanted by sustainable sources of private spending. And here the news is almost uniformly grim.
Searching For New Demand
Take the country many are pinning their hopes on: America. The adjustment in the housing market began earlier there than anywhere else. Prices peaked almost three years ago, and are now down by more than 30%. Manufacturing production has been falling at an annualized rate of more than 20% for the past three months. And the government's offsetting policy offensive has been the rich world's boldest.
As the inventory adjustment ends and the stimuli kick in, America's slump is sure to ease. Cushioned by the government, the economy may even begin to grow again before too long. But it is hard to see the ingredients for a recovery that is robust enough to stop unemployment rising. Weakness abroad will crimp exports. America's banks are propped up with public capital, but their balance-sheets are clogged with toxic assets.
Consumer spending and firms' investment will be dragged lower by the need to pay back debt and restore savings. This will be a long slog. Private-sector leverage, which rose by 70% of GDP between 2000 and 2008, has barely begun to unwind. At 4%, the household savings rate has jumped sharply from its low of near zero, but it is still far below its post-war average of 7%. Higher unemployment and rising bankruptcies could easily cause a vicious new downward lurch.
What about China?
For the time being, the brightest light glows in China, where a huge inventory adjustment has exaggerated the impact of falling foreign demand, and where the government has the cash and determination to prop up domestic spending. China's stimulus is already bearing fruit. Loans are soaring and infrastructure investment is growing smartly.
The IMF's latest forecast, that China's economy will grow by 6.5% this year, may prove conservative. Yet even China has its difficulties. Perhaps three-quarters of the growth will come from government demand, particularly infrastructure spending."
Add all this up and the case for optimism in 2009 fades quickly. The worst is over only in the narrowest sense that the pace of global decline has peaked.
I still believe a case can be made that the new bull market will start in the first half of 2010. However, we at Foxhall don't have a crystal ball and our investment process and discipline is designed to simply follow the stock market in the direction it is already going—we don't ever try to anticipate future stock market movements—we just follow them.
Right now, we continue to implement our Foxhall Defensive Strategy of staying invested primarily in U.S. government treasury bonds. We will continue to track long-term stock market trends and when we see a sustainable and persistent trend toward a new "real" bull market, we will then notify our clients that we will be moving to our Foxhall Offensive Investment Strategy.
But until we see those new trends, which we do not at the moment, we will maintain our Foxhall Defensive Investment Strategy to try to protect our Foxhall client's retirement capital.
Until next time…

A successful entrepreneur is one that never rests on their laurels. While it is our hope that you are happy with all that you've accomplished in your business, it is equally important that you are looking to the areas where you have not met your expectations, areas where there is room for improvement, and being goal oriented as you calculate your results on a weekly, monthly, and annual basis.
Thankfully this is a simple matter of deciding what it is that you want from your business. What is the most important thing to you? Is it repeat business, new clients, media attention, the respect of your industry peers? These are the questions you must ask yourself and the creation of and the following of a marketing plan might be exactly what you require.
The easiest way of envisioning a market plan is looking at two important factors. First, what you have accomplished and from there ask yourself where you want to be. From there you will see a simple gap and make sure to address this first and foremost when writing your marketing plan. These are the questions that must dominate your thoughts as you prepare the plan to arriving at your goals.
Be Specific
Don't simply say, "I want to make more money", or, "I would like more clients". The question must be, "How much more money?" and "How many new clients?" Your goals must be measurable and attainable for you to get a sense of what you have accomplished and what you have yet to accomplish. Continue reading

The current Ford Fiesta has been the best-selling car in the UK ever since it was introduced in 2008. So despite the fact that almost one in four superminis sold in the UK wears a Fiesta badge, Ford has given the car a striking new look and some new technology, aimed at cementing its place at the head of the pack.
The most obvious change is the Fiesta's new nose. It features Ford's new 'Power Dome' bonnet, shared with the forthcoming Mondeo, and, while the upper edges of the headlamp units share the same curves as the pre-facelift car, the lights themselves are narrower and more technical looking than before.
This is thanks to the addition of LED daytime running lights, which run along the bottom edge of each headlamp. All models, from entry-level Studio, right up to the new, top-spec Titanium X trim, get a five-bar chrome grille, which sits higher up than the existing model, leaving space for the front number plate below.
Like the new bonnet, the oversized grille design is lifted straight off last year's Frankfurt Motor Show Evos concept. Completing the new look are new tail-lights, new alloy wheel designs and new colours – including a rather nice Candy Blue, and rather less successful Copper Brown.
While we were a little sceptical of the new car's looks on the Paris Motor Show stand, on the road, the new grille makes the car seem larger and more solid than it actually is, while the daytime LEDs and splashes of chrome brighten the car's face, both literally and in terms of bringing the design right up to date.
The current Fiesta's interior still looks fresh, so there aren't any major changes to the dash or switchgear. There are some new seats, which offer excellent support and loads of adjustability, and new gloss trim around the air conditioning controls. The front door handles have been redesigned, moving the electric window switches further forward for easier use. Higher-spec cars also now get a centre console armrest which doubles as a decent sized cubbyhole. It's just a shame that the plastic than runs from the cubby to the gearlever is made from quite thin, flexible plastic.
The Fiesta gets some interesting new tech. SYNC, Ford's fairly intuitive voice control system for changing music tracks or calling people on the go suits the Fiesta's youth-orientated and smartphone savvy customer base. Its most useful function is that it can read your text messages out loud, including the emoticons.
SYNC is standard on Zetec trims and above, while MyKey is standard on all cars. It lets the car's owner set limits to certain functions of the car. Using a programmable car key, the Fiesta's speed can be set not to exceed 80mph, the traction control can't be deactivated, the stereo's volume set so that it only turns up to 45 per cent of its maximum volume, and the fuel light so it comes on when range is 80 instead of 50 miles. All are features designed for parents with teenage kids in mind.
Rivalling the new nose as one of the more significant updates is the addition Ford's three-cylinder engine. The Fiesta is the first Ford to get the entry-level non-turbo unit, but the only petrol model available for us to test was the top spec 123bhp 1.0 EcoBoost version.
We've already tried this engine in the Focus and B-MAX, but the Fiesta is lighter than both those, ensuring even more impressive performance. The three-cylinder is very quiet on start-up, including at the lights where the stop-start system cuts and returns power pretty smoothly, too.
Around town, you barely notice the engine's characterful engine note, but do enjoy its decent response, even from low revs. At higher speeds, the engine remains impressively quiet – sitting at around 2,600rpm in fifth gear at 70mph, the only noise that permeates the cabin is the roar from the tyres. On a twisty road, the engine offers plenty for the keen driver, too, coming alive at around 3,000rpm and delivering both a good supply of torque and a nice, off-beat growl.
Ford has left well alone where it comes to the Fiesta's class-leading chassis, which matches the engine with a perfect mix of sporty firmness and supple comfort. The way the Fiesta darts into corners and feels light on is feet is still what separates it from the pack.
Yuck. Grafting the face of an Aston onto a supermarket runaround doesn't work. It looks like it's had a front end collision before its left the showroom.
No doubt this will be a big seller. Many to the fleet markets! I'll stick to my Toyota. Much better car than any Ford.
The Fiesta is a great car, but I'm not sure that the "new face of Ford" really fits on the nose as well as it does on the much-delayed Mondeo.
What planet you on AutoExpress... Striking new look? there are far better looking cars around..... 5* again for a ford well there's a surprise.... I had a first, your recommendation wish I hadn't it ain't that brilliant to drive as you claim.........
Looks good on the whole but lacking in a few areas. Don't think the new design alloys with higher profile tyres look as good as the old ones, and its a shame integrated Sat Nav isn't offered. I'm sure it makes up for this by driving well though!
After the way they've treated the British car workers, no way will i buy a Ford.
The only ones with faith seem to be the Japanese..
What is the matter with designers? This Aston obsession. We already have Jags that look like 4 door Astons, now Fords are going Aston too. What was wrong with the face of the previous Mondeo/Focus with the trapezoidal grille - or whatever they called it. As soon as they have established recognition of a family 'face' they go and change it. What sort of crazy marketing is this? Admittedly the new model Focus/Fiesta faces were about the worst ever, so I suppose anything was better.
What's with the Ford bashing all the time? No one ever seems to moan about the dull styling of the VW Golf that they pass off as new at each new reincarnation...they're not that reliable either. My last one spent more time in the garage than on the road - so much for solid build quality.
Google image the words, bloated, puffer, fish and spot the difference
Good as this car might be you can get a Seat Ibiza in FR trim with a 1.2tsi engine for £2000 less (list price) and probably extend this significantly if you are willing to haggle. It might not get the same rave reviews but the real life compromises can't be that great. As an owner I'm biased of course but its surely worthy of consideration at the price difference? As would be a MK3 Leon in SE spec with the same engine for a massive £500 extra to this.
What made you buy a Golf in the first place though?! Not a quick decision buying a car unless you are absolutely minted. The new Fiesta is horrid compared to the previous model. What the hell happened with that grill!?
2 door Fiesta looks very cramped & claustrophobic in the rear with low roof lines and small windows with rear vain styling making rear visibility very poor, last model had a much more pleasing front end, but it looks OK works well on the new Modeo.
Still with the excellent 1.0 Ecoboost engine it should be cheap to insure and run, not so sure how durable it will be long term stand the test of time. Still prefer the much better more durable diesel version thats much more fuel efficient economic as well.
Fantastic car! This has the same power as my Mk 7 ZetecS! But with over 60MPG!! Great work Ford, also for the looks, I should imagine it's the same as the original and you have to see it in the flesh But I think it looks classy. Good work Ford, also liking the Ford Sync too.
What's wrong with a Fiesta that looks like an Aston Martin?! What other choice arethere.....VW Polo.....BORING.....Seat Ibiza.....BORING....Skoda Fabia.....BORING.....Fiat Punto....Would you really buy one?? Peugeot 208....again would you buy one....no. Well done Ford for offering such a dynamic, good looking car with some super-efficient, engines....99g/km for the 1.0 ecoboost with 125PS...can't argue with that
If I remember correctly Peugeot received a lot of negative press for its "gaping" mouth on the front. Now here comes a Fiesta which puts the fish sucking mouth of the Peugeot to same. Why isn't it being given the caning it deserves instead of this marketing slogan of "big car solidity". . Are we sucking up to the locals.....again.
'Grafting the face of an Aston onto a supermarket runaraound doesn't work.' What?!?! I saw the Fiesta outside a showroom last week and loved the new look - my wife saw it and said - 'you always said you'd buy me an Aston one day!'. We took the 125PS Ecoboost for a test drive (Titanium trim) and bought it. It feels solid as a rock and that engine just makes me giggle all the time - it's amazing! What a car!!

How will Glee continue without Cory Monteith? Producers are currently figuring that out, reports TheWrap.com.
The Fox show is set to go back into production for its next season at the end of July and back on air Sept. 19. Why Monteith's lead character, jock-turned-glee-club-singer Finn Hudson, is absent falls on the writers as well. Monteith didn't appear in the final three episodes of the fourth season; he was in rehab for substance abuse issues. An autopsy was expected Monday. A toxicology report will screen for drugs; medical examiners will also try to determine if Monteith died of natural causes or an injury.
Law enforcement officials already established foul play was not involved and that he died alone in the 21st floor room of the Vancouver Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel. The Vancouver native's body was discovered Saturday by hotel staff.
Monteith's last two Tweets appeared Friday, referencing Sharknado, the Syfy Original Movie about a tornado of sharks.

According to Twitter, Ri was busy watching the Miami Heat play game six of the NBA Finals hours before her appearance. At about 4:15 a.m., Rihanna tweeted "#KINGJAMES." She also sent out a celebratory retweet saying, "Big up yaself bosh," in reference to Chris Bosh.

Are the huge profits garnered by corporations each year a case of a few bad apples in the business world taking advantage of unmonitored dealings? Is this consolidation of wealth made at the expense of the overall economy and the well-being of the average citizen? Will the planet be saved by developing more "green businesses" and "green-collar" jobs?
Joel Magnuson delivers a powerful response to the current misconceptions about the US economy in his brilliantly accessible Mindful Economics. The troubles we face are not the result of a good system gone awry, but rather a system that is built to do exactly what it is doing: corporations are designed to reap profits for shareholders—at any cost. The greater welfare of society, or of the environment, will never be as important as financial gain. Magnuson shows us the relationship between the current wars abroad; rising oil prices; the recession; ballooning incomes of top CEOs; the mortgage crisis; and the health care, insurance, and auto industries, and he teaches us that the best way to understand the US economy is to think like an economist. With stunning clarity, Magnuson shows the interconnectedness of the local with the global, and offers real alternatives to this capitalist model.
"Joel Magnuson has written an excellent guide to one of the most deliberately mystified fields of human endeavor. If you ever wondered what all those words and concepts mean, this is the book to turn to. And though I don't agree with all his prescriptions for making things better, they're great spurs to both talk and action." –Doug Henwood, editor of Left Business Observer, and author of Wall Street and After the New Economy
Joel Magnuson, a professor of economics, writes extensively on the political economy and on environmental issues related to capitalist development. He is a member of an international research group based in Cambridge, England, which is building a new philosophical foundation for economic theory and practice, known as mindful economics.

A man arrested in Phoenix on Saturday on suspicion of a Valentine's Day drive-by shooting in Youngtown was also accused of being behind two other shootings in the Valley.
Maricopa County sheriff's deputy's arrested Daniel Alexander Rodriguez, 23, at his home near 40th Street and McDowell Road around 1:30 p.m.
Rodriguez was apparently in a relationship with a 16-year-old girl. She along with her parents were identified as victims.
On Jan. 31, sheriff's deputies were called to a shooting at the intersection of 116th Lane and Cheryl Drive. A resident reported seeing Rodriguez and the teen girl arguing. Rodriguez fired several 9mm rounds randomly at a home to the north in an effort to scare the teenager, sheriff's investigators said. The girl entered the car, and they drove off together.
MCSO said Rodriguez is tied to a third shooting in Phoenix. He is suspected of shooting at a house where the 16-year-old girl was staying.
Rodriguez was using a false identification because he is wanted in Florida for burglary and resisting arrest, sheriff's deputies said.
Rodriguez was booked into the Fourth Avenue Jail on charges of kidnapping, aggravated assault, shooting at an occupied structure, weapon misconduct and identity theft.

Tenba Introduces New Messenger DNA Bags
Tenba has expanded its popular Messenger collection with two new Messenger DNA photo bags. These ags were inspired by life in New York City and other big cities, where a photographer or filmmaker needs to potentially carry the same bag to a meeting with clients, then to a professional photo or video shoot, and finally to hanging out with friends in the evening. The new Messenger DNA bags include a security strap to anchor the bag behind the user while riding a bicycle or scooter, and the photo insert is removable to quickly convert it from a camera bag to a general-purpose carryall. The Messenger DNA 11 accommodates either a mirrorless camera with 3-5 lenses, or an SLR camera with 2-3 lenses, plus accessories, and the rear-padded sleeve will hold a tablet or an 11-inch laptop. The DNA 15 fits a professional SLR with 2-3 lenses (up to an attached 70-200mm f/2.8), flash and audio gear, and has two padded interior sleeves: one for a laptop up to 15 inches, and another for a tablet. Messenger DNA bags will begin shipping at the end of October at a suggested retail price of $129.95 for the DNA 11, and $159.95 for the DNA 15.

Samsung Launches ISOCELL Sensor Technology
Samsung Electronics announced its new advanced pixel technology for CMOS image sensors. The ISOCELL technology is claimed to "substantially increase" light sensitivity and to effectively control the absorption of electrons, resulting in higher colour fidelity even in poor light. The company argues that while back-side illumination - introduced a few years ago - did improve the light absorption of each pixel, "BSI technology also faced limitations in improving image quality as pixel sizes continued to decrease." Samsung's patent-pending ISOCELL technology forms a physical barrier between neighboring pixels – isolating the pixel. This isolation enables more photons to be collected from the micro-lens and absorbed into the correct pixel's photodiode minimising undesired electrical crosstalk between pixels – by as much as 30% compared to BSI sensors - and allowing expanded full well capacity, leading to greater dynamic range. The first Samsung image sensor to adopt this new technology, the S5K4H5YB 8-megapixel imager, is currently sampling to mobile device manufacturers with mass production scheduled for Q4 2013.

He's done it before, but some expect that he won't do it again.
By Jay Braman Jr.
A pair of sewer projects in the region is having difficulty moving forward, but supporters of both projects continue to make slow headway. Both projects benefit from funds supplied by the New York City Department of Environmental Protection (DEP), which has committed millions to build such systems in the watershed after local officials demanded the funds back in the 1990s.
Members of the Shandaken Town Board and the two District Two Ulster County legislators (Don Gregorius and Brian Shapiro), along with Ulster County Sheriff Paul Van Blarcum, will be appearing in the Shandaken Theatrical Society's next production, Thornton Wilder's "Our Town." Performances are November 14-16 and 21-23; Friday and Saturday shows at 8 p.m., Sunday shows at 2 p.m.

Voters will see many names on the ballot in Shandaken this year, where one local race takes place alongside several county- and state-level races. In the Town of Shandaken, Democrat Doris Bartlett will be faced by Woodland Valley resident Tina Rice, a Republican, to fill out the remaining year on what had been the town board seat of current supervisor Peter DiSclafani.
By Jay Braman Jr.
A special session to shave dollars from the Town of Shandaken's $5 million preliminary budget yielded little results Monday night, but there are some items, including raises for staff and officials, on the chopping block.
Filled with four percent raises for all public officials and non-union employees plus a whopping 18 percent increase for the town's ambulance squad, the preliminary plan caught attention when first revealed earlier this month, prompting one councilman to note that while this would be a hard winter for town employees it would be harder for taxpayers.
By Jay Braman Jr.
With the Ulster County facing challenging economic times, Big Indian resident Gary Gailes has urged the Shandaken Town Board to proceed with caution when finalizing next year's budget.
Along those lines, Gailes has called for a special committee to be formed to look at the possibility of a tighter budget and what that would mean to the town and its residents.
A preliminary budget prepared last week calls for spending of just over $5 million. Discussion of the plan will take place on October 27 during a special workshop meeting of the town board beginning at 6 pm. At that time all proposed spending would be reviewed. The public is invited to attend.
By Jay Braman Jr.
The Town of Shandaken's preliminary budget has appeared on schedule this year, unlike last when the same document didn't jump out of town hall until close to Halloween. But this year's $5 million spending plan may still give taxpayers a fright. Filled with raises for all public officials and nonunion employees plus a whopping 18 percent increase for the town's ambulance squad.
By Jay Braman Jr.
Perhaps it's a sign of the times.
As governments on all levels works to cut spending during the current poor economy, frivolous expenditures are called into question. In Shandaken a popular yet controversial project is now on the chopping block, and some say the funds saved should be spent helping the ever increasing needy population instead.
By Jay Braman Jr.
The Shandaken Town Board met in a special session last Monday to begin work on the 2009 budget. And from the sound of it, everything is on the table when it comes to possible spending cuts.
The informal session, which was sparsely attended, saw the board members seated at a table scrutinizing the current figures in the budget in an attempt to find places to save money.
Right off the bat there was disagreement over how brutal the cutting should be. Supervisor Peter DiSclafani, who recently favored no raises in 2009, said that all non-union salaries should increase four percent next year. He changed his mind, he said, because energy costs have risen so high that it's going to be tough for workers to make ends meet.
Shandaken Goes Greener is the theme for this year's celebration at the site of future Catskill Interpretive Center on the Department of Environmental conservation Day Use Area on Route 28 in Mt. Tremper. Family fun, games, arts and crafts, delicious food and good times will be on hand on Saturday, Aug. 23 from 10 a.m. until 7 p.m.

These definitely have a different consistency than brownies because of the oats. As long as you know that, these are delicious! I used 1/2 cup of egg substitute instead of 2 eggs & a 4 oz cup of Mott's original applesauce. Definitely worth making.

The mother of Miami Dolphins cornerback Nolan Carroll is about to become Florida's Lieutenant Governor.||||||| Jennifer Carroll was chosen as Republican Rick Scott's running mate several months ago, and after one of the closest gubernatorial races in state history, they were declared winners Wednesday after Democrat Alex Sink conceded. Nolan Carroll says being with his mother on election night - even though the outcome was in some doubt - says "it was one of those things that you'll remember for the rest of your life."
Since being drafted by the Dolphins in April, Carroll has changed his mind and decided politics isn't in his future. He remains interested in a career as an NFL cornerback, however, and it will begin Sunday when the Dolphins open the season at Buffalo.||||||| Carroll's the son of Jennifer Carroll, chosen last week as the running mate to Florida's Republican gubernatorial nominee, Rick Scott. In 2003, she became the first black female Republican elected to the Florida Legislature, and if elected with Scott, she'll become the state's first black lieutenant governor. The younger Carroll, a fifth-round draft pick, survived the final cut with the Dolphins in part because of his versatility on special teams.

Chicago Blackhawks forward Marian Hossa stated during his media availability on Friday afternoon that he fully intends to play in the team's game against the San Jose Sharks on Friday night.
Hossa had sustained a head injury on Wednesday night when playing against the Vancouver Canucks. Vancouver forward Jannik Hansen made contact with Hossa's head while both players attempted to gain control of a puck that was in mid-air. Hossa fell to the ice and remained there for some time.
Having sustained a concussion last April, there was concern that he potentially sustained another.
However, Hossa was examined on Thursday and stated on Friday that all of his tests showed that he was healthy. Hossa stated that he would not play in the game if he had any doubt and expressed that he felt good.
The Blackhawks will look to set an NHL record on Friday night. The club has gone 16 consecutive games without a regulation loss to start the season, which ties the 2006-07 Anaheim Ducks for the longest such streak in NHL history. If they record a regulation win or force overtime, they will gain sole possesion of the record.

Nearly a year after a deadly shooting outside an Albany apartment complex, the confessed triggerman was sentenced to prison Monday, but not for murder.
Timothy Bell escaped a murder charge but pleaded to a lesser charge of voluntary manslaughter in the death of Melvin Green. He claimed self defense in the shooting.
"The only thing I can say is have mercy and do the right thing," said an emotional Kay Bell.
She asked Superior Court Willie Lockette for leniency before sentencing her son. The 34-year-old admitted shooting and killing Melvin Green outside Windover Apartments on West Gordon Avenue in October 2011.
"This defendant, Timothy Green, had been looking for Melvin Green for a couple weeks. Defendant Bell and Melvin Green exchanged words," said Assistant Dougherty District Attorney April Wynn.
She said Bell asked his friend Marcus Price for a gun at which point Melvin Green pulled a knife and shortly after shots were fired.
"Defendant Bell fired the firearm 5 or 6 times...striking Melvin Green," she said.
Green died a short time later at the hospital. His family members, at time emotional, spoke on his behalf.
"I really hope this gets some justice out of everything that happens. It's really taken an effect on my whole family. Lord knows it has," said Green's uncle Ulysses Taylor.
The victim's mother, Elizabeth Green, said, "It hurts me everyday. I may not get over it, but I'll forget it. Grandbaby's be crying. I be crying. I let them know everything's going to be alright. It's in God's hands."
Teresa Green told the court how her brother would often give free haircuts to kids around the neighborhood. When asked how his death had impacted her family she said, "When we cleared his house out of his belongings, we got his coat. My little girl walks around with that coat on saying I miss my uncle Melvin."
Because Green had a knife, the plea deal for voluntary manslaughter came with a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. Before sentencing Bell apologized to the family.
"Regardless of what everyone says in the streets, it didn't happen like that. I want them know that and I'm sorry for what I done and please forgive me."
Judge Lockette handed down the maximum sentence of 20 years in prison to be served concurrently with the 5 year sentence for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon.
Bell had served time in the late 90's for burglary and aggravated assault.
With the maximum sentence handed down, Bell will head to state prison where at some point he will be eligible for parole.
He also must pay the family restitution of more than $4,000 for Green's funeral expenses.

Vt. woman sentenced to 2 years in heroin caseThe Associated Press | January 17,2013A Vermont woman has been sentenced to serve over two years in federal prison after pleading guilty to conspiring to distribute heroin.
Maria Hunton of South Burlington had faced a longer term, but the judge considered her lack of a criminal record in imposing the sentence.

The movie Alien is all about rape.The movie Alien is all about rape.
The 2002 documentary The Alien Saga went behind the scenes of the iconic science fiction movie series, and the findings are quite shocking! Screenwriter Dan O'Bannon is quoted as saying:
"One thing that people are all disturbed about is sex... I said 'That's how I'm going to attack the audience; I'm going to attack them sexually. And I'm not going to go after the women in the audience, I'm going to attack the men. I am going to put in every image I can think of to make the men in the audience cross their legs. Homosexual oral rape, birth. The thing lays its eggs down your throat, the whole number."O'Bannon also convinced director Ridley Scott to have Swiss artist H.R. Giger design the alien itself. It doesn't take much to deem Giger's designs and artwork as, well, extremely phallic. This goes along quite nicely with the sexual themes O'Bannon had been discussing - a penis-shaped alien impregnating humans on a spaceship...you get the picture.
Other interpretations go on to speculate that the Alien is a metaphor for women's refusal to bear children or that it is even symbolic of the id - the part of the mind in which our instinctual urges lie (read: SEX).
However you slice it, it is clear that the team that produced this film did not hesitate to make their subliminal message known. O'Bannon probably put it best when he said, "This movie is about interspecies rape. That's scary because it hits all of our buttons."

Portrait of Mrs.Robert Henri
Sorry, you need to install flash to see this content.
August 1914
Size: 24 in. x 20 in. (60.9 cm x 50.8 cm)
Gift of Mrs. George Heyneman, 1959:7
Robert Henri studied at both the Académie Julian and the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. Though Thomas Eakins was no longer teaching at the Academy when Henri arrived, Eakins was immensely influential for Henri, who regarded him as the superior portrait painter in the United States and followed Eakins's bluntly realist style.
This painting of Robert Henri's second wife, Marjorie Organ Henri, was given by the artist to Alice Klauber, who studied with Henri in Spain in 1907. Klauber invited Henri to San Diego in 1914, and he assisted her with the organization of an exhibition of American painting for the 1915 Panama-California Exposition, which was held in what became Balboa Park. The exhibition brought the work of George Bellows, William Glackens, Childe Hassam, John Sloan, and Henri to San Diego

Trouble breathing that lasts more than a few weeks can be a sign of asthma. For many people, the main signs and symptoms of asthma are wheezing, shortness of breath, excess mucus and chest tightness. For others, chronic cough that comes and goes periodically may be the main or only symptom of asthma.
Keep in mind, these symptoms can be caused by a number of conditions. Other causes of trouble breathing include respiratory infections, bronchitis, hay fever (allergic rhinitis), certain medications, acid reflux and heart disease (cardiovascular disease).
The following factors increase the likelihood that asthma may be causing your symptoms:
See your doctor if you have a cough or other respiratory symptoms that last more than a few weeks. Even if it isn't asthma, it may be something that needs treatment. If you have severe trouble breathing or shortness of breath accompanied by chest pain or nausea, seek immediate emergency care.

There's nothing new about a psychic picking a Super Bowl winner. But what about an sea otter?
Emma is a sea otter who lives at the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas in New Orleans.
Her trainer said a mini football is her favorite toy and she uses it to make her pick for a winner, tossing it into the bucket with the San Francisco 49ers logo on it.
Not convinced? Last year, Emma correctly predicted the winner of the NCAA Final Four.
However, Emma has some competition. On Thursday, a grizzly bear in Billings, MT, picked the Baltimore Ravens to win the Super Bowl.
