Economic Policy: Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman says the U.S. is in the "early stages of a third Great Depression." If he's right, it's only because American policymakers have been following his advice.
Hell knows no wrath like that of an economist scorned especially one on the left of the political spectrum. Case in point: New York Times columnist and sometime economist Paul Krugman. The world is going to hell in a handbasket, Krugman suggested this week, thanks in large part to its refusal to follow his advice to the letter.
Actually, he has it exactly backward. Krugman was among those who encouraged the new Obama administration and the Democratic Congress to spend massive amounts of money early on in a kind of Keynesian frenzy to shock the moribund economy back to life.
It didn't work. With a stimulus a deficit, that is of nearly 11% of GDP, our economy is barely growing, while unemployment remains shockingly close to 10% of the adult working population.
This even prompted our nation's vice president, Joe Biden, to admit last weekend: "There's no possibility to restore 8 million jobs lost in the Great Recession."
And he's right at least with current policy, which is based on massive spending, new tax hikes, trillion-dollar deficits for decades to come and tight government control of vast swaths of our nation's economy, from banking to autos to energy.
Krugman recognizes, too, that it's a "failure of policy."
Only problem is, he completely misdiagnoses the problem: "Around the world most recently at last weekend's deeply discouraging G-20 meeting governments are obsessing about inflation when the real threat is deflation, preaching the need for belt-tightening when the real problem is inadequate spending."
Inadequate spending? That's laughable. The reason our economy hasn't improved is because our government has spent too much, siphoning badly needed investments and savings from the highly productive private sector to feed the nonproductive, inefficient, heavily unionized government sector. It's a recipe for stagnation.
This has happened the world over. To their credit, even the socialist nations of Europe now recognize this. They were behind the move at the G-20 to reduce government budgets. Only the neo-socialist Obama administration and its pals in Congress don't get it.
Krugman faults policymakers for failing to learn from history. Since he used the word "Depression," let's look at the last one.
It's an enduring myth that the Great Depression was caused by inadequate government "stimulus," of the sort Lord Keynes and President Obama would have approved. In fact, as a study by economist Randall Holcombe shows, under President Hoover, who served from 1929 to 1933 just as the Depression got under way, real per-capita spending surged 82%. That was even greater than the 74% rise from 1933 to 1940 in FDR's time.
So why did that slump last so long? UCLA economist Lee Ohanian studied that question. His conclusion: "The main culprit appears to be government policies that restricted competition." Indeed, stupid economic policies, including higher taxes, trade protectionism and the government's foolish effort to prop up wages, added seven years to the Depression. But for the government's tinkering, we would have exited that rut in the early 1930s, says Ohanian.
Economists Charles Rowley of George Mason University and Nathanael Smith of the Locke Institute came to a similar conclusion in their study of Keynesian policies during the 1930s:
"(FDR's) interventionist policies and draconian tax increases delayed full economy recovery by several years by exacerbating a climate of pessimistic expectations that drove down private capital formation and household consumption to unprecedented lows."
Sound familiar? It should. Others, ranging from economic historian Amity Shlaes to economist Robert Higgs, tell the same story.
Today, Obama is following a script eerily similar to the one followed by Hoover and FDR: He wants to spend wildly, raise taxes on all Americans, erect trade barriers and protect unions, his biggest supporters, to boost their wages at others' expense.
The only difference this time is the Fed has refused to let the money supply contract by a third, as it did during the Depression, deepening the economy's collapse.
The hole in which we find ourselves is the result of bad policy responses to a short-term financial crisis. We'll pay for it with an enfeebled economy for years to come.
And if, as Krugman believes, we are about to enter a global depression, it's only because our policymakers were foolish enough to take his advice.

The village of Ossining, NY, is located within Westchester County, NY, along the Hudson River. The necessary busing program and a lack of physical infrastructure prevent many children from walking to school.
In March 2006, Safe Routes Chattanooga was awarded $364,000 in Safe Routes to School federal funds through the Tennessee Department of Transportation to be distributed to seven schools in Hamilton County.
Because of its rural setting, Longview Elementary School and the Moses Lake community faced unique issues surrounding child safety and safer walking programs.
Shaw Elementary School is a neighborhood K-5th Title 1 school with 597 students. Approximately 75 to 80 percent of the students live near enough to walk to school, but they face several barriers.
Oftentimes, it's difficult for children disabilities to walk or bicycle to school, and Safe Routes to School (SRTS) programs are designed to remedy a wide range of barriers.
As one of the first states to enact Safe Routes to School legislation and the home to one of two original pilot SRTS projects, California has been a leader in the national SRTS movement for nearly a decade.
Washington's Safe Routes to School (W-SRTS) program began in 2004, when the Washington State legislature funded a Safe Routes to School pilot project.
Plain City, UT, is a small town of about 5,000 citizens. On June 27, 2006, the Weber County School District passed a bond to build a new elementary school in Plain City.
Maricopa County Department of Public Health- Office of Health Promotion and Education in 2008 began working with Griffith Elementary School on "Walk n-Rollers."
The community of Montpelier, VT, is promoting a different "Way To Go," through an assortment of incentives and partnerships designed to help the program sustain itself in the future.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Province unveils five-year infrastructure plan
The Selinger government put more meat on the bone today on its five-year plan to use PST revenue to spend $5.5 billion on fixing and improving Manitoba's crumbling infrastructure.
Much of what the province will fix has already been announced--improving Highways 75 and the TransCanada, for example. The plan also comes a day before Finance Minister Jennifer Howard tables the government's budget for the coming year.
What it doesn't do it outline how much money Ottawa will contribute under its own Building Canada Fund. Jobs and the Economy Minister Theresa Oswald said the province has yet to sit down with senior Manitoba MP Shelly Glover on what Ottawa's share will be.
Oswald said the province's plan is based on how much money the federal government has contributed in past years to infrastructure projects.
Infrastructure and Transportation Minister Steve Ashton said the plan wouldn't be what it is without last year's one point increase of the provincial sales tax to eight per cent.
"The next five years will have a significant increase over the last five years and the difference is the one cent on the dollar," he said.
The NDP also recruited the Conference Board of Canada to vet the five-year plan. The board said the plan will create a total of 59,900 person-years of jobs, lift Manitoba's economy by $6.3 billion and generate $1.4 billion in retail sales.
Ashton also said the plan represents how the NDP differ from the opposition Progressive Conservatives, offering a glimpse at how the NDP will fight the next election campaign in two years.
"I think over the next period of time (Manitobans) are also going to see that there's a clear choice," he said. "Certainly, our political opponents have made it very clear what they would do. They would cut the one cent on the dollar. They would end up cutting a lot of programming, but they would also cut the investment in infrastructure."
Opposition Leader Brian Pallister said the province should not be using revenue from the PST for infrastructure, but instead fund it through general revenue like every other province.
"It's the only province that's jacked up the PST," Pallister said. "It's inflicted the highest back-to-back tax increases on Manitobans of any Canadian province and of any government in the history of Manitoba, and now it's trying to tell Manitobans that that's a good thing? I don't think so."
Pallister's Progressive Conservatives are challenging the PST increase in court without a referendum. The first court date is April 25.

Top Gun on iPhone is one of the device's many hidden treasures. Not only does it have cool, After Burner-esque gameplay, it's also got one of the best easter eggs of all time (as you can see above). Unsurprisingly, nailing the unintentional humor of the movie is one of the things that Freeverse designer Justin Ficarrotta says his team got right in a new postmortem published on Gamasutra.
The dev's top mistake? Using the wrong plane, or at least a different plane than the one fans were counting on. But again -- and we don't think we can stress this enough -- you get to play volleyball with the disembodied heads of Maverick and Ice Man. Doesn't that grant some sort of perma-forgiveness?

With the spring season upon us, I thought it would be appropriate to remind everyone that I will start sending out letters concerning lawn and accumulation of trash issues. The letters serve as reminders as to the City of Ellinwood's ordinances concerning this issues and I hope, if you should happen to receive a letter, you take it as a reminder to perform a spring clean up and get your property in shape for the summer. Let's keep our city clean-a great place to raise our children and a great place to live.

So, that was fun. One minute we're promised a half dozen toss up races to determine control of the United States Senate, and the next Democrats are ducking under their desks as Massachusetts and Maryland elected Republican governors. Let the "Very Important Pundits" take turns on cable news assigning blame for the losses. I'm more interested in why the polls didn't tell us the wave was coming.
I admit it: I feel sorry for cigarette and cigar smokers these days. But changing fashions and the results of the recent election may offer them hope.

How To Use Google+ HashtagsPosted by sophia2 under Social Media
From http://socialmediatoday.com 511 days ago
Made Hot by: thecorneroffice on July 2, 2013 1:08 am
Google+ introduced hashtags, along with a number of other new features, last month in an effort to make the Google+ feed a little deeper and more interesting. Hashtags on Google+ are very similar to those on Twitter and now Facebook: you can use them to find, start and join conversations about specific topics. However, Google+ hashtags are slightly different to their Twitter counterparts.

Somers Point teen convicted of robbery at knifepoint
Written by staff reports Friday, April 05, 2013 07:51 am
|< Prev
|Next >
MAYS LANDING ŌĆō A 17-year-old Somers Point youth was tried and convicted as an adult Thursday, April 4 of robbing a boy of his Christmas gifts at knifepoint in a Somers Point park, according to acting Atlantic County Prosecutor Jim McClain.
On Dec. 25, 2011 Lation Jensen, who was 16 at the time, conspired with his 21-year-old brother, Warren Jensen, to lure the boy to the Jordan Road School park, where Lation Jenson, who was alone with the victim, attacked him from behind, held a knife to his throat, and robbed him of his Christmas gifts: a set of audio earphones and an iPhone.
Somers Point police arrested the brothers the same day and recovered the knife used in the crime. Detective Jack Sementa was the lead detective on the case.
Warren Jensen was charged with robbery, conspiracy, and employing a juvenile in the commission of a crime. He pleaded guilty in January 2013 of employing a juvenile in the commission of an armed robbery and is scheduled for sentencing before Atlantic County Superior Court Judge Bernard E. DeLury April 12. He faces a potential penalty of 5 to 10 years in New Jersey State Prison, subject to the No Early Release Act.
Lation Jensen was charged as an adult in May and subsequently indicted for first degree armed robbery, second degree conspiracy to commit robbery, third degree possession of a weapon for an unlawful purpose, and fourth degree unlawful possession of a weapon. He was convicted Thursday of all four crimes.
He is scheduled for July 1 sentencing before Atlantic County Superior Court Judge Albert Garofolo and faces up to 20 years in New Jersey State Prison, subject to the No Early Release Act.
Atlantic County Assistant Prosecutor John Moldovan represented the state.
In his closing statement, Moldovan said that Lation Jensen ŌĆ£attacked the victim from behind, held him down, held a knife to his throat, and robbed him. And no witness contradicts those facts.ŌĆØ Moldovan then said, ŌĆ£Normally the state has the last word in a criminal case, but we will give that to the defendant.ŌĆØ Moldovan then played a video of statements Jensen made in court.

Monday NBA grades: Chandler Parsons might be the Rockets' third man
Jan 21, 2014, 2:52 AM EST
Our quick look around the NBA, or what you missed while watching… actually you should have been watching the NBA all day. There were great performances — such as Anthony Davis with 27 points and 10 rebounds, or Dwight Howard with 24 points and 12 boards — that don't even make the cut here. The Association was the best entertainment going on Martin Luther King day.
Chandler Parsons, Houston Rockets. Houston GM Daryl Morey said he thought the Rockets had the first two pieces of a title contender in James Harden and Dwight Howard, but they still needed piece No. 3. The next game, Parsons comes out drops 31 points on 12-of-19 shooting and had 10 rebounds and seven assists … message being sent? Parsons had 10 points in the first quarter when Houston went on a 21-6 run to take a lead they never gave up, and he was there with big shots to help stop Portland runs all night. Whether or not he's this team's No. 3, he is big for them.
Miami Heat defense. You can say it is because they are tired, or because they are bored, or it's because of injuries — the bottom line is Miami is playing terrible defense of late. They allowed the Hawks to shoot 51.9 percent on Monday and score 122.4 points per 100 possessions. In their last 10 games the Heat are allowing 107.6 points per 100, 5.2 higher than their season average and 23rd in the NBA in that stretch. Miami's defense is different than most, rather than having a shot-blocking center in the paint to erase mistakes; they play a pressure defense that counts on energy and athleticism. Take your foot off the gas with that kind of defense and you get exposed. The Heat's lack of energy shows on defense, and it shows on the scoreboard.
Michael Carter-Williams, Philadelphia 76ers. MCW looked like the stud from the first month of the season Monday — 31 points on 22 shots, plus he had 5 assists. What seemed different was the frequency and determinations of his drives to the basket, he was aggressive and attacking again. Not that it was enough, the Sixers still lost to the Wizards. Still, good to see this Carter-Williams again.
LaMarcus Aldridge, Portland Trail Blazers. He put up monster numbers that need to be mentioned here — 27 points and 20 rebounds. He wasn't efficient (11-of-26 shooting) and he was part of some spotty Portland defense on the day (they gave up 126 points to the Rockets) still you have to give Aldridge credit for his numbers. He made some fantasy owners happy.
D.J. Augustin, Chicago Bulls. Augustin — who was let go by the Pacers last season and waived by the Raptors this season — has played the best basketball of his career in the 19 games since joining the Bulls, and he was key in this one. Augustin had 11 points in the fourth quarter, then five in overtime to help give the Bulls a win over the Lakers (a win that pulls Chicago up to .500. Augustin finished the game with 27 points. Not bad for a cast off.
- davidly - Jan 21, 2014 at 7:22 AM
A (+ and/or -)
Chairmen of the Boards. Five guys had twenty or more rebounds last night. Joakim Noah grabbed 21 of Chicago's 55 — 7 of their 19 offensive; Zach Randolph had ten at each end of the court for 20, but fell in Memphis to the Pelicans; Anderson Varejao's 21 were not enough to overcome the Mavs in Cleveland; but DeAndre Jordan's 21 were enough to help propel the reeling Clippers to a win in the other city on a great lake; LaMarcus Aldridge had 20 in the Blazers' loss in Houston. Honorable mentions go to Noah's counterpart, Pau Gasol and Bobcats Al Jefferson, who each had 19 in a loss and win, respectively.
The court surface in Oakland — or was it the shoes? I seriously thought somebody was going to get hurt out there. The atmosphere in the second half was downright playoff-like, but the players were slipping all over the place. Commentators Marv Albert and Steve Kerr speculated at first that it might have been the logos, but as the game went on, it was clear that it was more than just those spots. The players were lucky to get out of their purple shoes with their limbs in tact.

Great job on not posting anything about the wizards again. You guys are just wizard haters
- skins51186 - Jan 23, 2014 at 11:05 AM
You better not be talking about the Wiz if you're an Eagles fan. That's blasphemy and I don't care that we're crossing sports. Hopefully you're just a big fan of the band or of the animal in general.

In December 2007, Emirates Airlines began flying directly from Houston, TX to Dubai. To help celebrate this historic event, a lavish route launch party was held in the Grand Lobby of Sarofim Hall in Houston's $100M Hobby Center for Performing Arts, the gem of Houston's Theater District. A sweeping modern design that rises to a six-story façade of glass and steel, the lobby has become one of the most sought-after reception venues in the city.
Local AV specialists J&S Audio Visual deployed Electro-Voice Plasma P1 two-way powered loudspeakers for the evening's events, which included a jazz and cocktail reception, multi-media presentation, firework display and band performance (during dinner), requiring only four of the compact P1s to fill the three-story main lobby space with crisp, clear sound for 900 guests–despite the challenging architectural surfaces and high trim height.
"The four boxes covered the entire reception area, vertically and horizontally, with high intelligibility and plenty of headroom to spare," says James Kragle of J&S. "I wanted to keep the sight lines open in this beautiful space, no matter where anyone was standing in the room, so I flew the P1s in the light truss 35-feet overhead, aimed straight down over the guests. This worked out perfectly for the entire evening's program, and it also kept sound reflection off the 75-100 feet high glass wall to a minimum. We even synched up the speakers for the fireworks display, which guests viewed through the front window. The P1 has it all: versatile rigging, a great power to weight ratio, and typically excellent EV sound quality–it never fails to impress, even at the most prestigious events."
"The audio system that J&S installed into the Sarofim Hall Lobby was excellent," commented Mike Siddaway, Corporate Communications, Emirates Airlines. "Given the dual challenges of a ceiling height in excess of 60 feet and one wall of the venue being all glass, I thought the audio quality was fantastic. Added to this were the logistics of having a jazz duo perform during the cocktail reception and then having only 45 minutes during the multi-media presentation to re-set for the band that played during dinner. Flying the P1s on the truss ensured a smooth and even distribution throughout the venue with two advantages: firstly the 900 guests were able to network during dinner without shouting, and secondly you maintained the feeling of a 'party' with sufficient audio clarity for those who wanted to enjoy the music and dance."

New iPads likely at Apple event in San Francisco next Tuesday
Apple is holding an event in San Francisco next week to announce new products -- likely updated iPads.
Apple is holding an event in San Francisco next week to announce new products -- likely updated iPads.
The company announced its most recent iPads around this time last year. The announcement included a smaller version, called the Mini, for the first time.
New iPads would get Apple's latest operating system for mobile devices, iOS 7. The invitation sent Tuesday includes a graphic that mimics the color scheme in iOS 7.
Next Tuesday's event will take place at the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts Theater in San Francisco, a venue Apple has often used in the past.
It follows last month's release of new iPhones with iOS 7 -- the 5S model with a fingerprint sensor and a cheaper, 5C model with a variety of color options.
It's also possible Apple will use the event to release its new Mac operating system, Mavericks. Apple unveiled the system in June. The system will support tagging to help you find files more easily. It also promises better battery life and a way to keep track of passwords across multiple devices more easily. Apple may also announce new Mac computers at the event.

So good!
first track is probably the song of the year
Album rules.
yeah album is awesome but we all agreed on that two months ago
got it pre ordered on vinyl, so i'm just waiting until that comes. so fucking excited
Really good album.
Hell, even the Intro kicks ass.
Digging: The Birthday Massacre - Superstition
this is my favorite album of the year but more importantly does this stream mean that theres a good copy w/o small skips between tracks give it to me if so
the download i got shortly after it leaked had no skips
rly cuz i asked a bunch of people and they all said a version w/o skips wasnt on the internet yet
album's high points are like 10/5
low points are iffy but man when it hits it's so good
intro is more of a song then an intro
Exactly the reason why I like it. Otherwise, straight to the trash.
stream didnt work for me after the first song, weird
Digging: Hyperdub - Hyperdub 10.4
this guy is pree cool. the kind of direction for this album was a bit of a shock to me for some reason
but i warmed up to it and its still good quality stuff
Not seeing how the direction could be a shock at all, very m83.
And where are these low points you speak of, aint finding them yet.
Well I meant more of the inclusion of vocals. They seem a bit more prominent here whereas on his older stuff not so much. Though it was kinda obvious he was gonna make an album just like this. It's just one of those things that thinking about now is really apparent to me.
that song rules
it kind of scares me but i'm happy you guys like it
Claudia Lewis rules
This is just about the least cohesive album ever. I need to give it a few more listens...
Digging: Devin Townsend Project - Z2
(that comment about cohesion applies to anything except for the discography of Cardiacs, obviously)
Surprised a review hasn't popped up yet
moi aussi. get on it Dev.
album would be a 4.5 for me if it was a little shorter. I get kind of sick of it in the last ten or so minutes. awesome music though.

I've been reading MacDonald for 40 years and still find myself amazed and surprised at the quality of his writing. The novels you mentioned are all from the later portion of his career and I haven't written about them yet, as I'm trying to cover the books in more or less chronological order. Read a few of the pieces I've done on the early novels to get a sense of what to read next... they're all quite an experience.Steve Scotthttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290476670691353414.post-62878279193353219352014-11-17T08:20:52.062-08:002014-11-17T08:20:52.062-08:00Excellent post. I just started reading MacDonald ...Excellent post. I just started reading MacDonald this past summer, and it's a like I discovered a treasure chest when you consider the number and quality of the novels and stories he produced. I could be occupied with his works for years. So far, I've read the first three McGee novels, and the following stand-alone novels: Last One Left, Neon Jungle, The Drowner, and The Only Girl In the Game. All of them were excellent. Last One Left is a genuine masterpiece. I just started A Key to the Suite.

I've read the noir masters Chandler, Hammett, etc., and am a big fan of Ed McBain, Stuart Kaminsky, George Pelecanos, Dennis Lehane....and many others. But based on the MacDonald novels I've read so far, I would have to place MacDonald at or near the top. He's that good. What impresses me the most is the quality of his prose (always polished and free of cliche, and with poetic touches at just the right places), and the depth of the characterizations. Your website is a great resource, and will help me decide what to read next.

The slicks generally paid a flat rate for a story, not a per-word rate. MacDonald received his first four-figure fee for a story he sold to Collier's in 1949, a check for $1,000 for 5,000 words. In the 1920's and 1930's rates for fiction averaged around $2,500 for a short story and $25,000 for a serial. As fiction waned from magazine content after the war those numbers most likely went down, but not by much. This Week was probably in this league.Steve Scotthttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4290476670691353414.post-28275104378703340032014-11-10T12:51:33.787-08:002014-11-10T12:51:33.787-08:00Dear Steve, Just out of curiosity, do you have an...Dear Steve,

Just out of curiosity, do you have any idea what the word rate was for "This Week" in the 1950s when MacDonald's work appeared there.

I know Robert A. Heinlein, another favorite of mine, was getting a half cent to one cent a word in the pulps but when he moved up to "The Saturday Evening Post" he began to earn several times that rate:
