Personal Finance: High-frequency trading keeps some people anxious
WASHINGTON — Some people have lost their taste for the stock market, with many concluding it's more dangerous than they can tolerate for their kids' college money or retirement savings.
And they have reason to be anxious.
At a Senate banking committee hearing in Washington in late September, professionals who have been involved with the high-frequency trading that dominates stock buying and selling confirmed some of the worst fears of individuals struggling with investments: The stock market has been behaving erratically and playing with people's emotions as frenetic stock movements have often been divorced from either the economy or businesses' performance.
It no longer is your parents' or grandparents' stock market. Rather, it's become a Wild West of trading, with errant technology too often in control and setting stocks, commodities, currencies and futures up for violent moves that could make the $1 trillion flash crash of May 2010 look tame by comparison, testified David Lauer, who has designed trading technology and worked as an analyst for Allston Trading and Citadel Investment Group.
"U.S. equity markets are in dire straits," Lauer said. "We are truly in a crisis."
He noted that "retail investors have been fleeing the stock market in droves" and that the Chicago Booth/Kellogg School Financial Trust Index shows "investor confidence is nonexistent — with only 15 percent of the public expressing trust in the stock market."
Rather than buying a stock and holding onto it, institutions using high-frequency trading buy and sell stocks constantly in milliseconds, or much faster than a blink of the eye. Lauer said about 50 to 70 percent of the volume of trading in the stock market now takes that form. Often trading systems send out phony trades aimed at manipulating others into buying or selling. The activity can mislead legitimate traders working for mutual funds, pension funds or individuals to buy a stock at too high a price or sell it at too low a price.
It might involve pennies. But when combined day in and day out "it's death by a thousand cuts," said Andy Brooks, vice president and head of U.S. equity trading for one of the nation's largest mutual fund companies, T. Rowe Price. And computer glitches involving everything from Facebook's initial public offering to the flash crash of 2010 have left individuals with the lowest confidence he says he's ever seen.
"As we talk with our clients there is a growing distrust of the casino environment," Brooks testified at a committee hearing convened by Sens. Jack Reed and Mike Crapo. "Speed kills. We don't think it's for the benefit of investors."
Lauer added: "We must be concerned with whether the pendulum has swung too far." He wants the Securities and Exchange Commission to know who is trading, although much of it is now secret. And he wants more regulation because he fears a catastrophic flash crash late in the day could set off a panic that could cause stocks and other securities to plunge worldwide.
Although high-frequency traders insist that they help the markets by buying stocks during stressful periods, Lauer said that during the 20-minute flash crash, traders refused to buy a thing. They allowed stocks to plunge because "none of us knew what to do or what would happen next."
"That dramatically worsened an unstable situation," he said. "Something is dreadfully wrong."
Individuals sense the problem as they see stocks rising or plunging for seemingly no reason.
In a sign of the angst, individuals have refused to buy stocks despite the Standard and Poor's 500 index climbing almost 15 percent this year and 27 percent over the last 52 months. As stocks climbed, individuals pulled their money out of stock funds for 35 of 37 weeks, said Charles Biderman, chief executive of TrimTabs Investment Research.
"They abhor stocks, particularly U.S. stocks," he said.
As individuals leave the market and it becomes the domain of institutions, the markets become increasingly fragile and volatile.
"Complexity has become the hallmark of the new electronic landscape," said Lauer. He and others credit technology with reducing the costs individuals and institutions incur when they buy and sell stocks, but his concern is that complex systems "can also spin out of control in unexpected ways."
Lauer notes that "mini flash crashes" happen on a "near-daily basis." Even without a "catastrophic event" he said society is paying a price. As retail investors leave the market and companies are leery of selling stock publicly, he notes "IPOs have dramatically dropped," referring to initial public offerings.
When young companies cannot raise the capital through an IPO, they cannot grow as well as they might, and hiring is stunted.
As pressure builds for more regulation, insiders from trading firms pummeled New York Stock Exchange Euronext Chief Operating Officer Larry Leibowitz at a Securities Traders Association conference in Washington last week to start a media campaign to rebuild confidence in the markets.
But Leibowitz said the public reaction is transitory; a result of the fragility that's leftover from declining home values, job losses and stock market losses in the 2008-09 financial crisis.
CME Executive Chairman Terrence Duffy told an audience on financial markets at Georgetown University's McDonough School of Business last week that Congress, industry regulators, industry groups and the CME need "to restore confidence in all aspects of the financial marketplace."
But he warned that regulators had to be careful about "impeding sound financial market development."
Reed, speaking to the same audience that Leibowitz addressed, warned traders that Capitol Hill can't take as long as it usually does to consider regulation of high-frequency traders because of the speed that new technologies are bringing to the market. He said he is concerned that a trading mishap could pose risks to the system.

Good evening, everyone. Thank you for joining us on this Labor Day.
I'm Lorra Lynch Jones.
Frank and Leah have the holiday off.
A 17-year-old Northside High School football player will probably be sitting out his team's next game... after someone shot him in the back at a Labor Day gathering.
Northside Coach Kevin Kinsler says the victim is Austin Roberts... A senior defensive end.
Tabitha Pugh, Spokesman for the Warner Robins Police Department says Roberts was involved in a confrontation on Wendon Way when a gunshot hit him in the back.
The teen walked a street over to Camelia Circle for help.
Coach Kevin Kinsler says the bullet traveled through the highly-recruited player's back... and came out the other side.
<he's a good young man and he's working hard towards his goal and that is to go to college and play college football and hopefully this set back won't keep him from that. >
Roberts was released from the Medical Center of Central Georgia Sunday night.
Kinsler says he's at home resting and doesn't expect him to play in their game against Veterans High Thursday.
Tonight-- we have an update on a story we brought you at six.
A Macon man says he called the water authority repeatedly-- after finding what appears to be sewage pouring into the Ocmulgee River.
He says hours passed between the time he first reported the problem--and the time it was fixed.
The leak has stopped... But he's still got questions.
Tom George looked for answers.
<Robert Neal says this appears to be sewage ... And Monday it gushed from a pipe into the Ocmulgee River.
Neal watched it happen near his home on South Pine Knoll Drive... And decided it deserved the Macon Water Authority's attention.
<every looks like minute to me, every is crucial in my book . I feel like they should get out here as soon as possible. >
After seeing a normally dry creek filled with the murky substance... he says a found the source... A broken pipeline.
<now normally that water that's gushing behind me would be 20 feet below the ground .. But today it's all the way up here .. And there's no sensor on the camera for smell, but I can tell you firsthand it's pretty strong. >
With an empty creek now full... And the water turning browner... Neel made his first call to the Macon Water Authority at 1:30, sent a text a few minutes later. Then, followed that up with an e-mail to the sewage reporting address. At 2 pm- someone answered the phone... And sent an employee to check out the problem around 330.
<we're glad to see them just arrive now, an hour and 45 minutes after we first called.>
Neel said the employee didn't ask him for any information...
NAT POP - yelling at me
... And left ten minutes later left... with the spill still going.
Just before 5... (to report a sewer spill, please press 9) we reached Plant Operator Ronnie Smith, who said they'd just changed shifts and he hadn't heard anything about the spill... But would look into it.
Around 5:30 another crew came out... But again... didn't talk to Neel about the situation.
< One more question ... Who told you not to give your name? ... Nobody. >
By 7... The spill stopped and it its place... a sign. It stated a later time of notification than what Neel first reported to us, an earlier time of correction, and an estimated volume of discharge at just 2,700 gallons.
Neel questions that number... Since no one asked him about what he saw...or when he saw it.
<improve is a question mark now ... >
In Macon, Tom George, 13WMAZ Eyewitness News.>
The Ocmulgee is also used for recreation.
Neel said earlier in the day... People had been boating in the water near his house... Unaware of the spill.
He was concerned it could be possibly dangerous to their health.
One person was killed and a second person was injured in a fall at the Georgia Dome over the weekend.
The mishap occurred during a football game.
As Will Frampton reports, investigators are looking into the possibility that alcohol may have contributed to the accident.
The investigation is ongoing.
First Lady Michelle Obama arrived in Charlotte for this week's Democratic National Convention.
Mrs. Obama walked through the Time Warner Cable Arena this afternoon, where the event kicks off tomorrow.
She shook some hands and took some of her husband's supporters up on requests for photo ops.
The first lady is playing a prominent role at the three-day gathering.
She shook some hands and took some of her husband's supporters up on requests for photo ops.
The first lady is playing a prominent role at the three-day gathering.
She's the featured speaker on Tuesday's opening night.
Former president Bill Clinton will give the nominating address Wednesday.
And President Obama addresses the convention Thursday.
And...call it the party before the party.
The Democratic National Convention is hosting Carolina Fest in Charlotte to kick off the week.
Actor and singer Jeff Bridges... is just one of the many performers taking part in today's festivities.
Bridges, who acted with Clint Eastwood in the 1974 movie, "thunderbolt and Lightfoot", talked about his former co-star's show-stealing fictitious conversation with the president last Thursday at the RNC.
<I didn't see it. I have this vision of Obama doing a little ventriloquist thing with a puppet of Clint and doing a little rebuttal. I don't know if that will happen or not, but that's where my mind went.>
Bridges is at the D-N-C to promote the "No Kid Hungry" campaign... as well as to politic.
That's a movement to end childhood hunger in the U.S.
Bridges is the campaign's national spokesman.
The Republicans had Clint Eastwood...some Democrats want Betty White.
The web site change-dot-org has launched a petition to get the Golden Girl to appear at this week's Democratic National Convention in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Eastwood's rambling speech made headlines in Tampa last week after he interviewed an invisible President Obama.
The petition says Eastwood "gave a bad name to older Americans everywhere" and urged people to take action to see "a real Hollywood icon get a political introduction right."
90-year-old White endorsed President Obama in May.
As of Monday evening, the petition had more than 46-hundred supporters.
But those backers may be out of luck.
Betty White's agent said that White is in production on her two T-V shows and likely won't be available to appear in Charlotte.
Many consumers choose organic foods because they think they are healthier to eat.
But as Duarte Geraldino reports, new research shows the organic label may not always represent what consumers expect from the product behind it.
<The Alfano family chooses organic as often as possible. They hope it cuts down on pesticides and hormones in their foods.
(SOT Lucia Alfano/Mother)
Fruits and vegetables, and dairy for sure and the meats mostly organic
new research in Annals of Internal Medicine shows when it comes to nutrition.. there's no difference between organic and regular foods.
(SOT Lisa Cimperman/ Clinical Dietitian, University Hospitals Case Medical Center)
there are generally the same amount of vitamins, nutrients,////// regardless of the types of fruits or vegetables you buy
Researchers reviewed past studies that looked at unprocessed foods like fruits, vegetables, grains, milk, eggs, as well as chicken, pork and meat.
(BRIDGE Duarte Geraldino/CBS News)
Researchers did find that eating organic fruits and vegetables reduced exposure to pesticide residue 30-percent, but levels were also within safe limits in non-organic foods.
Nutrition and safety are not reasons to buy organic. however, you may have other reasons to buy organic such as personal preference, you may think they taste better, you may have a concern that it's more environmentally appropriate, or humane in terms of the livestock
nats family
It typically costs more for organic foods and products. Lucia Alfano says her family will keep spending extra for organic because she feels it's best for her children.
To grow healthier without so much bad exposure to these chemicals."
No matter what you chose, experts say it's important to wash all fruits and vegetables before you eat them.
Just like any other food, organic products are subject to regulation by the FDA...and producers have to prove they've complied with a set of standards in order to put the organic label on their products.
Take a look at this time lapse...put together by one of our CBS stations out in California.
This is from a wildfire burning in the Angeles National Forest... Near the San Gabriel River.
It prompted the evacuation of an entire community.
The fire broke out Sunday afternoon...and climbed uphill at a rapid rate.
So far...wildfire officials estimate its burned more than 400 acres.
If you dodged the weather altogether this weekend and took in a movie...then you stood in line with some of the thousands of fans whose ticket purchases put a new horror movie in top place.
We're counting down the Box Office's big earners this weekend...but we're going to start off with #3..."The Expendables 2"...
It's been around for a couple of weeks already...but the action film...featuring Jean Claude Van Damme...and Arnold Schwartenegger...is still kicking, to the tune of 11-point-two million dollars.
And... In second billing... "lawless".
The name sounds like a Wild West tale...but this is actually a period-flick, using the desperation of the Great Depression as a backdrop for its drama.
"lawless" took in 13 million dollars.
Finally..."The Possession"...tells the story of a little girl who opened up something way scarier than a Pandora's box.
Her parents have to look for all kinds of help...to put the trouble back where it came from.
"the Possession" scared up 21-point-3 million dollars.
And a sad note for you tonight.
Actor Michael Clark Duncan died this morning in a Los Angeles hospital...after nearly two months of treatment following a heart attack.
His fiance, Omarosa Manigault-Stalworth, from "the Apprentice" fame, confirmed the news.
The 54-year old never fully recovered from the July 13th heart attack.
Duncan appeared in dozens of films...but may be best known for his role in "the Green Mile".
He was also well known for his size.
Internet sources all say he was at least 6'5" and well over three hundred pounds.

A federal organization called the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force is asking for the public's input today before it makes the recommendation for smokers nationwide to get screened for lung cancer.
But the Portneuf Medical Center has already been concocting a program which will do just that.
Cardio and thoracic surgeon Dr. Juan Leon said this will be Idaho's first lung screening program of this nature.
"We do mammograms for screening for breast cancer, but we really did not have a tool to screen for lung cancer," Leon said.
This program will give people within the community who think they might be a high-risk for lung cancer, a chance to detect the disease.
"One of the ways we can take care of them is through this low-dose CT scan that is nothing less than an X-ray of the chest to detect any masses."
The patient will be placed on a bed which will enter into a large, circular CT scanner called the Aquilion, which is different from other types of X-ray scanners since this one can collect four times the amount of data than a standard scanner, while giving a three-dimensional view of the body.
Doctors say, this allows them to detect any sort of abnormalities or lesions on every part of the lung. Leon said there are seven of these CT scanners at Portneuf.
But, this process can get expensive.
Leon said the majority of the cost will be picked-up by the hospital, but patients are still looking at a $200 dip into their wallets since the procedure is not covered by medical insurance at the moment.
Portneuf CFO and VP of Finance John Abreu said this process will significantly cost the hospital since it will be footing the majority of the bill, however he feels this sort of procedure is a necessity, nonetheless.
"This is a way to preemptively look at disease management and make sure that folks who may have an indication for the disease are able to screen for it," Abreu said. "If you don't have the screening, then things may go undetected and then become much worse later on and then become more difficult to treat."
Out of the trove of cancers, Leon said lung cancer is the leading cause of death. Out of those who have lung cancer, he said smoking accounts for the majority of those cases.
Leon said those who are high-risk are: heavy smokers, people exposed to carcinogens, people who have a 30-year history of smoking, and those who are at least 55-years old.
Some doctors feel this procedure is too intruding on patients, installing more fear and anxiety in them than there should be if the screening turns out to produce results not showing any signs of cancer.
He said this program is expected to officially launch this upcoming month.
However, Leon said with the extremely low-dose of radiation emitted from the procedure, patients should always be safe when it comes to something that could their lives.
The USPSTF will take public comments until August 26. Here is a link to the website for those who want to give their input: http://www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/tfcomment.htm

Boulder has approved a business incentive worth $55,000 for Boulder-based Sterling-Rice Group.
Brand strategy and communications firm Sterling-Rice is expanding its downtown Boulder offices from the fourth floor of the One Boulder Plaza building into a total of 39,500 square feet, including a street-level presence at 1801 13th Street.
The new space will include a state-of-the-art test kitchen, mobile workspaces, convertible conference rooms, high-tech audio visual room and 3-D printing capabilities, the city said in a news release.
Sterling-Rice Group was founded in Boulder in 1984 and works with companies ranging from small entrepreneurial start-ups to some of the biggest brands in the country. The company focuses on consumer and culinary products, and it works with a variety of food and beverage, food service, health care and outdoor/active lifestyle brands.
Sterling-Rice has 116 employees.
"Sterling-Rice Group is a vibrant and creative brand marketing company with strong sustainability values," said City Manager Jane Brautigam in a news release. "The city is excited that Sterling-Rice is expanding its presence as a major employer in downtown Boulder with the assistance of this flexible rebate."
The rebates are in sales and use tax and in permit-related fees and are worth up to $55,000.
The flexible rebate program uses social, community and environmental sustainability guidelines. Companies choose the guidelines that best fit their circumstances but must meet minimum requirements in order to receive the rebate.
City officials said Sterling-Rice Group has exceeded the requirements. The company has purchased wind power for all of its electricity usage and purchased offsets for all its carbon emissions. It also participates in the EcoPass program for downtown Boulder companies and is part of the Multicultural Business Student Association at the CU Leeds School of Business.
"Boulder has long been an epicenter for food, innovation and entrepreneurship, and the Sterling-Rice Group has always been proud to be in the heart of it," company President Buddy Ketchner said. "There is a special energy that draws the best and the brightest to Boulder. This new space will enable us to do what we do best in a state-of-the-art flexible space designed to allow for greater collaboration, not only with our clients but with Boulder's entrepreneurial community as well."
Sterling-Rice's application is the first 2013 flexible rebate application. The city's 2013 budget includes $350,000 in funding for flexible tax and fee rebates for primary employers.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (AP) - A conservative Republican Congressmen from Michigan who was among four stripped of plum committee assignments says he wants more answers.
Justin Amash of Michigan issued a statement Tuesday night saying he wants Speaker John Boehner to release a "secret scorecard" used in the decisions.
A letter dated Monday from Boehner to Amash that was released by Amash's office denies the use of such a scorecard. Amash represents the Grand Rapids area.
Amash and U.S. Reps. Tim Huelskamp of Kansas and David Schweikert of Arizona made an initial request for information in a letter sent Friday to Boehner.
Those three lawmakers, along with Rep. Walter Jones of North Carolina, recently lost their assignments after they bucked party leaders on key votes.

Thread: Texas Tech Insight Bowl
Texas Tech Insight BowlCollege Football Roundup | Texas Tech wins thriller
By The Associated Press
TEMPE, Ariz. — Trailing Minnesota by four touchdowns at halftime, Texas Tech coach Mike Leach told his team it had a chance to make history.
The pep talk turned out to be a prediction.
The Raiders spotted Minnesota a 31-point, third-quarter lead, then rallied for a stunning 44-41 overtime victory in the Insight Bowl on Friday night. It was the largest comeback in NCAA Division I-A bowl history.
The previous record for a bowl comeback was 30 points, set by Marshall against East Carolina in the 2001 GMAC Bowl.
"We talked at halftime that we had a great opportunity to make history, and the reason people come to Texas Tech is to play all 60 minutes," said Leach, who fought back tears during a postgame interview.
It took Tech more than 60 minutes to earn one of the more improbable victories in its history.
Tech (8-6) appeared finished after Minnesota (6-7) took a 38-7 lead with 7:47 to go in the third quarter. But the Raiders mounted a furious comeback, scoring 31 unanswered points in less than 20 minutes.
Alex Trlica's 52-yard field goal as regulation time expired sent the game into overtime.
Joel Monroe kicked a 32-yard field goal to put Minnesota up 41-38 in overtime, but Shannon Woods scored on a 3-yard run to win it for Texas Tech.
"Everyone felt like, 'Hey, we're going to win,' " said Tech quarterback Graham Harrell, who passed for 445 yards and two touchdowns.
For Minnesota, Amir Pinnix ran for 179 yards, Bryan Cupito threw for 263 yards and three touchdowns and tight end Jack Simmons caught seven passes for 134 yards.
Yes Texas Tech is my Alma Matre.

The Supreme Court of Virginia has concluded that Virginia Tech was not at fault in the 2007 massacre of 32 students and faculty members. The decision reverses a jury decision that awarded damages to two families who lost students in the mass shooting.
The shooter at the state university, student Seung-Hui Cho, committed suicide.
The shootings on April 16, 2007 started as a double murder in a dorm around 7:30 a.m. First responders found two victims in the dorm, a male student and a female student. They concluded it was probably a domestic matter, put out a lookout bulletin for the boyfriend of the girl. They did not lock down the campus.
More than two hours later, Cho began a massacre in a classroom building. Among the victims there were freshman Erin Peterson, of Chantilly, Va., and 23-year old Julia Pryde of Middletown, N.J.
The families of the other victims agreed to share an $11 million settlement offered by the university. But the Peterson and Pryde families sued, claiming Virginia Tech should have sent out a safety alert.
A jury agreed, but now the Virginia Supreme Court has set aside that verdict, saying, "based on the limited information available to the Commonwealth ... it cannot be said that it was known or reasonably foreseeable that students in Norris Hall would fall victim to criminal harm."
The ruling is a complete victory for the state.
American University law professor Andrew Popper thinks the Virginia Tech liability case could have gone either way on appeal. He also notes that universities, including his own, now routinely send out safety alerts.
In an interview, Popper told us, "People would say: 'Gee, why are you pinging my cell phone or my email?' And I think in the grand scheme of things, an excess of caution is wise. If that is one of the results of this catastrophe, then at least that's something."
Officials at Virginia Tech applauded the ruling, pointing out that the cause of the heartbreak there in 2007 was an "angry young man" who had access to "powerful weapons."

Breaking baseball news: Steen to coach at DLS
By contracostatimesprepsportsstaff
Monday, August 18th, 2008 at 3:48 pm in Baseball.
Yep, you read that headline right. Rick Steen, longtime San Ramon Valley coach (the ballpark is named after him at SRV), has signed on to coach the Spartans of De La Salle. My colleague Chace Bryson just received word this afternoon via email and he'll be working on tracking down some more details as the day wears on.
Steen coached at SRV from 1974-2007 and racked up 490 wins. According to the release sent out by De La Salle, Steen's son Andy is a Spartan alum. And, as Chace points out, Steen will be coaching an EBAL team this year as the Spartans join the EBAL. SRV fans, are you ready to see Rick Steen coaching from the visiting dugout at Rick Steen Ball Park?

Buttermilk Bacon-Fat Flour Tortillas From 'The Homesick Texan's Family Table'
For some reason, homemade flour tortillas have always intimidated me. I've made corn tortillas many times, so I'm not sure where the reluctance came from.

Where's the PDF?
Many article databases contain information about articles (citations or abstracts), not the entire text of the article. Once you've used an article database to find articles on your topic, you may need to use this button: in order to locate and read the full text of the article. The UC-eLinks button appears in nearly all the databases available from the UCB Library website.
UC-eLinks will link you to the online full text of an article if UCB has paid for online access; otherwise, UC-eLinks will help you locate a print copy on the shelf in the library. If UCB doesn't own the article in print or online format, UC-eLinks can also help you order a copy from another library.
For more information, watch this video tutorial (about 4 min.)
You can also set up UC-eLinks to work with Google Scholar. For more information, watch this 40-second demo.
Find an Article from a Citation
Here's a citation for an article...how do you find the whole article?
Gaultney, J. F. (2010). The Prevalence of Sleep Disorders in College Students: Impact on Academic Performance. Journal of American College Health, 59(2), 91-97.
This citation is for an article by J. F. Gaultney, published in 2010 in the Journal of American College Health, a scholarly, peer-reviewed journal. It's part of volume 59, issue 2 of this journal, and was printed on pages 91-97. There are several ways of determining if the article you're looking for is available at Berkeley, in electronic or printed format:
Option 1: Use Google Scholar to locate a citation for the article, and UC-eLinks to retrieve the full text.
Paste or type the citation into Google and pull down the Google Scholar tool. Here's how:
Remember to set up off-campus access if you're off-campus. Here's a brief video that shows what to do if you don't see UC-eLinks in your search results.
Note: Google Scholar does not cover all publishers, and many journals indexed by Google Scholar have partial coverage only (some years/volumes missing). Also, not all articles found through Google Scholar will be available online. If you can't find the full text of your article this way, read on for more options!
Option 2: Look up the journal title in OskiCat or Melvyl.
You can also search for the title of the journal (NOT the article title!) in either OskiCat or Melvyl. They will tell you:Read more
- if we subscribe to the journal you're looking for
- which years we have
- whether our subscription is print ("hard-copy") or online
- what the call number is (for print journals)
- where to find the journal online (for online journals)
- what's the latest print issue we've received (OskiCat only)

6:40pm Sunday 8th July 2012 in News By Natalie Crockett
AROUND 200 fundraisers braved heavy rain on Friday night to take part in St David's Foundation Hospice Care's Midnight Stars Walk.
The event, which started at Cwmbran Stadium at 11pm, saw many walkers don fancy dress to complete an eight-mile circuit into the early hours of Saturday.
Torfaen mayor Cllr Wayne Tomlinson was there with BBC news presenter Sian Lloyd to cheer on men for the first time in the previously women-only challenge.
Successful participants enjoyed a well-deserved bacon roll at the end.
Supporters including Lyn Iliffe wrote on the charity's Facebook page: "The bacon roll was amazing Ð well worth walking eight miles for. What a brilliant event, so well organised, really pleased to have taken part and be able to raise funds for such a deserving case."
Paul Hamer wrote: "You all did fab, so proud to be part of a great charity, and yes the bacon butty was great."
Funds, which are still being totted up, will help the Newport-based charity continue its work providing palliative care for people with terminal illnesses in Gwent.

Recently, Red Sox starter Josh Beckett was scratched from a start due to injury, and then he had the temerity to go out golfing. Depending on your perspective, that sentence might read sarcastically or non-sarcastically. Beckett's golf outing was wildly unpopular, and after Beckett ... well I'm sorry for the phrasing, but after Beckett shit the bed in a start Thursday, now Beckett is wildly unpopular. Fans in Boston just can't stand the guy for seemingly fiddling while Fenway burns.
Over at FanGraphs, Dave Cameron isn't concerned with Beckett's golf outing or personality so much. Cameron doesn't think Beckett's problem is that he doesn't care. Cameron thinks Beckett's problem might have to do with something else, something physical and intuitively significant:
Last year, Josh Beckett's fastball averaged 93.0 MPH, and he topped out at 94-95 with regularity. This year, Beckett's fastball is averaging just 91.5 MPH, and the fastest pitch he threw last night was 92.9 MPH. The difference is easy to see in graph form.
It's not just his fastball, either. His curveball is off over 2 MPH from last year, so this isn't just a case of a missing top-end velocity, but instead, Beckett's just not throwing anything as hard as he has in the past. Missing velocity isn't always a sign of a health problem, but in Beckett's case, we don't have to speculate about whether there's something physically wrong – the Red Sox already confirmed that there is when they skipped his last start.
In closing:
Maybe Beckett really is apathetic, doesn't care that he's struggling, and is just counting the days until the season is over. Or maybe he's trying to pitch through an injury and figure out how to pitch without the ability to throw his fastball by hitters anymore. One of those two theories can be supported by the evidence and isn't all that uncommon in the world of pitchers. The other requires us to judge the motives of another human being despite having no real knowledge of his inner thoughts.
It is absolutely possible that Beckett is just this indifferent prick who's totally over pitching for the Red Sox and putting in the necessary effort. It is absolutely possible that that isn't the issue at all. Sometimes there are players who badly want to play for the Yankees or the Red Sox, because those are two of baseball's truly historic, iconic franchises. Sometimes there are players who very much don't want to play for the Yankees or the Red Sox, and you can understand why. The media isn't like other media. The media will string you up and cut you.

|The Administration has committed to ending veterans' homelessness, but it will need improved policy to make that goal a reality.
The Departments of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Housing and Urban Development (HUD) recently released a supplemental report to the 2010 Annual Homeless Assessment Report to Congress on veterans. The supplement estimated that 76,000 veterans experience homelessness on any given night.
President Obama and VA Secretary Eric Shinseki have made ending veterans homelessness a top priority, prompting Congress to explore several legislative solutions to the problem. In order to truly end homelessness among veterans, resources must be available to identify every veteran who is homeless or about to become homeless. Programs must be able to immediately secure the needed housing and services for individuals and/or their families.
The key elements of a solution to veterans' homelessness include:

Wake Up (Make A Move)
The Isle of Man Nowadays offers nothing for the teenagers of the island to do in their free time. What we think should happen is the Isle of Man government should build a complex with everything in one place purely just for teenagers. In it there could be a cinema, swimming pool, arcade, ice skate rink, dry ski slope, bowling alley and possibly a few more things. As well as these we could have the usual fast food places like KFC, McDonalds and also some cafés.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - The Kentucky Court of Appeals has overturned a $300,000 award to a former University of Louisville coach.
Mary Banker, who was an assistant track coach, filed suit in 2008 against the University Athletic Association saying her firing was in retaliation for starting a sexual harassment investigation.
In their decision, the Court of Appeals wrote that the University showed Banker was let go for non-discriminatory reasons and Banker couldn't prove otherwise.

DPW crews continue snow cleanup in Mount Vernon
Related mediaTraffic Center Forecast
MOUNT VERNON - DPW crews across the Hudson Valley continue to clean snow and ice off of the roadways for drivers.
Mount Vernon's Department of Public Works says it had 16 crews salting and plowing the streets, covering 10 main routes.
Deputy Commissioner Ray Copeland and Commissioner Curtis Woods said that during the last storm, the DPW received several complaints, mainly because they were down seven vehicles.

During Tuesday's storm, they took extra precautions, having mechanics prep equipment to make sure they had enough salt in stock.
Mount Vernon has gone through more than 1,200 tons of salt so far this year. It can only store up to 600 tons at a time.
Commissioner Woods tells News 12 they have already requested more salt so they can be ready for the next winter blast.
Some residents in Mount Vernon took the day off from work on Wednesday to clean up after the snowstorm.

The USGCRP's Carbon Cycle Working Group asked the National Research Council's Committee on the Human Dimensions of Global Change to hold a workshop on Human Interactions with the Carbon Cycle. The basic purpose of the workshop was to help build bridges between the research communities in the social sciences and the natural sciences that might eventually work together to produce the needed understanding of the carbon cycle-an understanding that can inform public decisions that could, among other things, prevent disasters from resulting from the ways humanity has been altering the carbon cycle. Members of the working group hoped that a successful workshop would improve communication between the relevant research communities in the natural and social sciences, leading eventually to an expansion of the carbon cycle program element in directions that would better integrate the two domains.

The Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Health and Human Services is scheduled to meet Tuesday at the state Capitol to discuss the DHS budget, along with the budgets for several other health-related agencies.
The Department of Human Services receives more than $500 million in state appropriations each year. And Oklahoma has been forced to increase the agency's budget as part of a settlement agreement with a child advocacy group that sued over the treatment of children in state custody.
The so-called Pinnacle Plan that resulted from that lawsuit is expected to cost the state an additional $153 million over the next five years to improve its child welfare system.

hey hot shot!

Got a nice little write up from the fine folks over at Jen Bekman Gallery and 20×200 for the upcoming Hey Hot Shot! competition. I have no idea if I'll make the cut or not, but it was cool to read someone else's take on a project I literally do just for fun when I'm bored […]

"And this is the nature of the equitable, a correction of law where it is defective owing to its universality. ... For when the thing is indefinite the rule also is indefinite, like the leaden rule used in making the Lesbian moulding; the rule adapts itself to the shape of the stone and is not rigid, and so too the decree is adapted to the facts."

TYLER, TX (KLTV) - It was a day of fun and learning at the Discovery Science Place in downtown Tyler for 11-year-old Clifford. One of our first activities was coloring dinosaurs!
The energetic child loves going to the mall and eating out. Clifford also loves sports, but also enjoys just hanging out with his friends. Clifford has been diagnosed with a medical condition that limits his ability to play contact sports. Plus, he really likes spook houses and video games.
Clifford loves science but doesn't like math. He wants to be a police officer when he grows up.
"Because it helps people," he said.
He has a strong will and likes to get his way. Clifford needs a family who can help him have patience and focus his energy in a positive direction.
"I would definitely go to LA," said Clifford.
Clifford will need help at school to stay on target. At home, Clifford is helpful and responds well to praise and encouragement. Clifford has a big heart, as seen in his three wishes.
"[I want] to meet my parents, to have a friend and my third wish would be to help more people," he said.
Clifford needs a forever family who will love him unconditionally and provide him with the reassurance he needs to develop trust in those closest to him.
Clifford is unsure what the future holds for him now, but is looking forward to having a forever family of his own, one that can show him the gift of love!
If you'd like to know more about Clifford, call our Gift of Love hotline, toll-free, 1-888-kids-275.

October 29th is World Stroke Day. The American Heart Association wants everyone to know stroke is not only the number four killer in the U.S., it's also not just something your grandparents need to look out for. Take it from Stefanie Beck, who was just 36 years old when she suffered a stroke. "I had severe crushing chest pain, kind of out of nowhere," Beck describes. It was June of 2998. She, her husband and three small children had just returned from a trip to Traverse City when, shockingly, Beck suffered a massive heart attack. "The artery down the front of my heart was 100 percent blocked, so, thankfully, they were able to put a stent in an open it up."Now she is suddenly facing a lifetime of taking pills and treating heart disease. Doctors blamed just one thing: genetics. Both of Beck's parents suffered heart disease in their 50s. But just two weeks after Beck's heart attack, she found herself unable to speak. "I knew what I was saying in my head but my words were coming out all jumbled, didn't make any sense," she remembers. "It was garbled; you couldn't make sense of what she was saying," Beck's mother, Barbara Groom, remembers. The family called 911, but, as a physician's assistant, Beck remembers knowing what was going on: she was having a stroke. A stroke occurs when the brain is cut off from blood supply. Doctors believe a clot from Beck's healing heart traveled up to her brain and blocked the blood flow. Unlike Beck, in most cases, strokes are preventable by controlling things like blood pressure, cholesterol and body weight. But she wants to spread the word that fast action saved her life, twice! "You need to listen to your body; you need to listen to your symptoms. If you think that there's something wrong, then you either need to call your doctor or you need to get the emergency room as soon as you can," urges Beck. FAST is the acronym to know when you suspect someone is having a stroke: Face; Arm; Speech; Time. Click on the link below to learn more about stroke warning signs and symptoms.

Kudos to Rep. Anthony Weiner
by Charles Lemos, Fri Jul 30, 2010 at 03:57:51 PM EDT
Rep. Anthony Weiner who represents the New York Ninth Congressional District went ballistic on the House floor Thursday over his Republican colleagues' procedural objection to an amendment to the Public Health Services Act. The amendment would extend and improve health care benefits for 9/11 victims suffering from lasting health complications. The bill ultimately failed to get the needed two-thirds majority, 255-159, setting the stage for Rep. Weiner's outburst.
More from Talking Points Memo:
In a rant that lasted for almost two minutes, a hopping mad Weiner railed against "cowardly" Republicans who claimed they were voting against the bill because of "procedure." Weiner spat: "It's Republicans wrapping their arms around Republicans, rather than doing the right thing on behalf of the heroes!"
Weiner attacked those who "stand up and say, 'Oh, if only we had a different process we'd vote yes.' You vote yes if you believe yes! You vote in favor of something if you believe it's the right thing! If you believe it's the wrong thing, you vote no!"
"It is a shame! A shame," he exclaimed.
Kudos to Rep. Weiner. The Republicans are shameless and they need to be called on it.

Three students in Colorado are under arrest and several other were suspended after marijuana edibles were found at a Westminister Middle School.
Investigators say several students at Shaw Heights Middle School ate some marijuana candies and appeared high during class time. It started when teachers noticed a few students acting strangely during class.
A total of 15 students were involved 4 are facing expulsion from the school district.
District officials believe one of the kids brought the products in to share, but some of the students say they didn't know they were being given marijuana. Some of the candies were the size of a Tootsie Roll.
"At least one of the kids had brought these products to the school and began sharing them with friends," said Adams 50 School District Communications Director Steve Saunders.
Saunders also advises parents to talk to their kids about edible drugs that are out there and what they could be coming in contact with.
"You can't put your head in the sand. This is an issue out there, kids are going to be exposed to this," Saunders said.
The Adams 50 School District says marijuana-related situations are happening in many schools and parents should be aware of this and talk to their kids about marijuana use.

A FATHER has been fined hundreds of pounds for chasing a man with a piece of wood after learning he had attacked his teenage daughter.
Stephen Hale, 48, of Langley Close, Dovercourt, admitted possessing an offensive weapon in a public place, when he appeared before Colchester magistrates.
The court heard he approached Michael Richmond in Dovercourt High Street at around 9pm, shouting: "I know it was you".
Mr Richmond, the exboyfriend of his daughter Tara and the father of her 10- month-old son, ran away. Hale chased him, but did not catch him. He had just been told Mr Richmond had broken into Tara's flat, trashed her things and assaulted her.
During the break-in, he destroyed the baby's cot, highchair and toys.
When Tara, 18, returned home to find him, he assaulted her and stole her purse.
Mr Richmond was sentenced to eight weeks in prison for the offence, which he carried out while on licence for a previous conviction.
James O'Toole, mitigating, said: "When Mr Hale heard this, he was extremely concerned and upset, as any loving father would be.
"He had no chance of catching up with him – the male was much younger and faster than him. He accepts there is no excuse for his actions."
Hale, who has no previous convictions, made full admissions during his interview with the police.
The mechanic said he had the piece of wood in his car to prop up vehicles he was working on.
He said he only took it out of the car for protection, as he had been told Mr Richmond was carrying a knife.
Chairman of the bench, Martin Stuchfield, said: "It clearly isn't acceptable for members of the public to take the law into their own hands."
Hale was fined £400 and ordered to pay an extra £135 in costs and victims surcharge.
Following the trial, Mr Hale and his wife Emma spoke of their anger he had been given such a large fine, compared to Mr Richmond's short prison sentence.
He said: "When is justice justice?
"I know what I did was wrong, but I didn't hurt anyone.
It was very spur of the moment. I think it is a bit harsh."

The ship is spectacularly beautiful inside and out. Even the public restrooms are gorgeous. Yes, it's true, you will even see people taking photos of the restrooms in the adult night club section called Europa. They feature splendid Italian glass tile mosaics. I even saw one woman have her husband make sure no man was in the men's restrooms so she could capture photos of them as well!
The three themed main dining rooms are unique, the service is splendid, and the food very good. If you don't care for haute cuisine there are some plain offerings like chicken and steak with a baked potato every night. You should try the Palo brunch just once for an up charge of $20 that is well worth it. Just make your reservation online for an at sea day as soon as you can.
Disney bus transportation is seamless to and from the airport and you can get to the port terminal even before it opens for others, just be sure to choose an early port arrival time as soon as you can complete your online check in.
The entertainment is true Disney family Broadway style shows with special effects that everyone will love, and they show first run movies every day. We saw the just released "Oz" in 3D. All this and a pirate night with fireworks at sea! It is just over the top!
The ship is constantly being cleaned inside and out from top to bottom 'round the clock. I've never been in a cleaner more super spotless space. As you enter any dining room or buffet you are greeted at the door with a sanitizing wipe to cleanse your hands. Also, when returning to the ship from port there are hand foaming stations set up before you step onto the ship. This really made me very happy to see how proactive Disney is about keeping germs at bay!
All of the cast members you will interact with will treat you like royalty. They are a very happy crew that are treated well themselves. They love working for Disney, and it shows!
All this is topped off with a luxury stop at Disney's own Island, Castaway Cay! I spent the day in Serenity Bay, and it was idyllic. I found myself wondering if there was some way I could become a real castaway there and go home on another Disney ship in a couple of weeks or so! I took the very last tram back to the ship. I even ran into Captain Jack Sparrow while on the Island.
I'm 62 and I went down the Aquaduck water coaster on the ship ten times! It is at the same time exhilarating and relaxing. I don't like roller casters or any scary rides, so try it...you'll like it!
I could write a lot more, but let me just end by saying....BOOK IT!.... and get a veranda for sure.
