Yankees, Girardi havepact for four more yearsBy HOWIE RUMBERG
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS | October 10,2013NEW YORK Manager Joe Girardi signed a four-year contract Wednesday to stay with the New York Yankees through 2017.
General manager Brian Cashman had said after the team missed the playoffs for the second time since 1992 that the Yankees wanted to keep Girardi, whose name was mentioned for the Cubs opening in his native Illinois.
The 48-year-old Girardi said it would be up to his family if he returned. He was completing his second three-year deal with New York since taking over for Joe Torre after the 2007 season.
After talking to my family, this is where we wanted to come back, Girardi said.
Despite finishing tied for third in the AL East at 85-77, Girardi had what many believed was his best season as a manager. He kept the Yankees in the playoff chase until late September despite injuries to stars Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez, Mark Teixeira and Curtis Granderson.
I wouldnt have come back if I didnt think we could win a championship, Girardi said. I have faith in our organization.
Girardi has led the team to the playoffs in four of his six seasons, winning the World Series in 2009. Under Girardi, the Yankees have gone a majors-best 564-408 (.580) since 2008.
He was NL Manager of the Year in 2006, when he led the Florida Marlins to a 78-84 record in his first year as a manager.
A 15-year MLB catcher, Girardi won three World Series titles with the Yankees from 1996-99.
Girardi remains with a high-priced ballclub that places the utmost premium on winning championships, but entered the offseason with great uncertainty.
Mariano Rivera and Andy Pettitte retired, Jeter played only 17 games this year after breaking an ankle last October and A-Rod is still appealing a 211-game suspension.
All-Star second baseman Robinson Cano is a free agent, as are pitcher Hiroki Kuroda and Granderson. And Cano could be seeking a 10-year contract worth up to $305 million.
Also, Yankees managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner has said that the team is determined to get under next years $189 million luxury tax threshold which includes about $177 million for player salaries. Cashman, though, recently said its unclear if the staying within that limit is possible.MORE IN Wire SportsARLINGTON, Texas LeSean McCoy ran for 159 yards a touchdown, Mark Sanchez had his first scoring...

Why read erotic fiction?Many psychological studies have shown that while men are aroused by what they see, women get turned on by what they imagine. And while men are generally content with the basic ins and outs of the sex act, women prefer a story line with their eroticism to straight porn. Erotic fiction thus gives women the chance to read, imagine and fantasise without being intimidated or sidelined by the mostly male oriented pornography.The classicsPorn on the page has been available since, at least, Ancient Rome and Greece, but I wouldn't recommend reaching for the Ovid if you want to get ready for action.Ones that do need mentioning though are Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure, aka Fanny Hill by John Cleland, Kama Sutra by Vatsayana (which of course doubles as a sex manual) and Song of Songs from the Bible.Modern classicsYou can read D. H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover in public and at most you might see one or two people smirk. I wouldn't recommend doing the same with The Story of O (which we'll talk about later) or Emmanuelle. Hint, both very pervy French chronicles. You'll probably get away with Anne Rice's (writing as A. N. Roquelaure) Sleeping Beauty series which is very unfairytale like if, and that's a big IF, you can manage your blushing.A good place to start If you can't see yourself buying sex books at your local Exclusive Books store, then perhaps you should try "normal' books with plenty of hot sex scenes in them first. I'd suggest Jilly Cooper's Riders series – Rupert Campbell Black is hot and horrible, Nicholson Baker's Vox, the hilarious Portnoy's Complaint, Fanny: Being the True History of the Adventures of Fanny Hackabout-Jones by Erica Jong, and Lace and Lace II (although the scene with the goldfish will forever freak me out).And according to Twitter? The Clan of the Cave Bear series (Book 3 especially), Anne Rice's The Mayfair Witches trilogy, Eric van Lustbader's "Ninja, and Danielle Stee'sl - Fine Things, to mention but a few.The romance-erotica crossoverWomen have been reading Mills & Boon books for decades to help them, fantasies and enhance their sex lives. In fact, lots of different research has shown that women who read romance novels have more sex and better sex than their high-brow literary counterparts. Romance publishers have now brought out specific series for erotic fiction. Look out for titles under Blaze, Avon Red Romance and for writers such as Joanna Lindsey (Prisoner of my Desire was wicked and awesome) and Emma Holly. Paranormal eroticaTwilight doesn't count here. Sure it was fraught with sexual tension and drove many a woman/ girl crazy with lust, but it doesn't count as erotica when the first sex scene is 1000pgs in. J.R Ward knows what she's doing though, combining a cool story with long, involved and very descriptive sex scenes.Laurell K. Hamilton and Louisa Burton are also two smoking hot writers. The characters are supernatural with supernatural abilities under the covers too. Both writers also like to bring in elements of BDSM and dominant and submissive behaviour. Hell, in Laurell K. Hamilton's Merry Gentry series the whole plot revolves around getting Merry to have as much sex with as many people with as much wild abandon as possible. Twosomes, group sex, homo-eroticism, spanking, oral sex, two guys, one girl and bondage feature strongly.Real, no-holds barred erotic fiction/ pornographyAnd finally, we come to the real deal. This genre is also hilariously called "one handed reading". Publishers include Ellora's Cave, Nexus, and Black Lace who publish countless erotic fiction titles, some stories are fantastical, some paranormal, some focused on S&M but all of them have one thing in common: lots and lots of very explicit sex.Of course there are single titles such as Wetlands (very fringe – I could only manage about 10 pages) and The Story of O the BDSM classic which was mentioned above. In fact many of the Nexus books base their plots loosely on O's plot (a young woman is imprisoned by her lover in a chateaux trained to be a sex slave).So happy reading ladies. Just don't say I didn't warn you.And while you're at it, tell us.... do you read erotic fiction? If so, what other reads would recommend to readers wanting to try this genre?

NEW YORK — New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg says the Occupy Wall Street protests have no place in his bedroom.
The mayor was asked Monday whether he had discussed the dilemma faced by the owner of the lower Manhattan protest site with live-in girlfriend Diana Taylor, who's on the company's board of directors.
The mayor answered "pillow talk" in his house isn't about Occupy Wall Street or Brookfield Office Properties, which has been struggling with how to handle the protesters who've descended on Zuccotti Park.
The mayor said last week police would help the company enforce rules preventing encampments, then announced the company had changed its mind.
Bloomberg says he hasn't had any direct communication with Taylor about the situation.

Christopher Dunn: Lost Technologies of Ancient Egypt
in News
Christopher P. Dunn, born 1946 in Manchester, England, is an English author known for the book The Giza Power Plant: Technologies of Ancient Egypt, which claims that precision machining is evident in ancient Egyptian structures, particularly in the Giza pyramid complex.
In this program, listeners will get an update on what Dunn has discovered in Egypt, and other ancients cities around the world.
Dunn was the manager of Laser Robotics Machining, which served the aerospace industry. In 1986 he was recruited by gas turbine/aerospace manufacturing company, Danville Metal Stamping, where he has worked in the position of Project Engineer, Laser Operations Manager and Human Resource Manager. He is a master craftsman and skilled machinist. Dunn lives with his wife Jeanne and children in Danville, Illinois
Edward Malkowski: Ancient Egypt 39,000 BCE
in News
Traditional Egyptologists have long resisted the notion that the architectural achievements of the Ancient Egyptians required the existence of a much more sophisticated technology than would have existed at that time. Yet, no records exist explaining how, why, or who built Egypt's megalithic monuments and statues. The ancient Egyptians did, however, record that their civilization resided in the shadow of a kingdom of "gods" whose reign ended many thousands of years before their first dynasty. What was this Civilization X that antiquity's most accomplished people revered as gods?
The recent discovery of a large stone at one of Egypt's oldest ruins presents physical evidence that clearly and distinctly shows the markings of a machining process far beyond the capabilities of the Ancient Egyptians. Likewise, experimental modeling of the Great Pyramid's subterranean chambers and passageways gives scientific evidence to further support the theory that the civilization responsible for such magnificent monuments is much older than presently believed. Ancient Egypt 39,000 BCE examines this evidence from historical and technical points of view, explaining who these prehistoric people were, what happened to them, why they built their civilization out of granite, and why they built a series of pyramids along the west bank of the Nile River.
EDWARD F. MALKOWSKI is the author of Before the Pharaohs, The Spiritual Technology of Ancient Egypt, and Sons of God--Daughters of Men. He is a historical researcher and lives in Lincoln, Illinois.
Xaviant Haze: Aliens in Ancient Egypt
in News
Xaviant Haze is a freelance researcher of ancient manuscripts and alternative history. His career as a music producer and DJ allow him to travel the world, exploring and documenting his findings on lost cities and the myths of the pre-diluvian world. He lives in Tacoma, Washington.
Examining the purposefully obscured reign of Akhenaten and Nefertiti, Xaviant Haze explains how they represent the last dynasty with access to the sacred knowledge of stargates, free energy, and antigravity technologies, knowledge handed down from an advanced interstellar race in the remote past. He reveals how the reptilian race known as the Shemsu Hor infiltrated the Egyptian priesthood and banking systems and formed the Brotherhood of the Snake--a secret society set on destroying Akhenaten's flourishing kingdom and suppressing the sacred knowledge of the pharaohs.
Haze examines the evidence of aliens in ancient Egypt, such as the reptilian beings depicted in the Temple of Hathor and Thutmose III's alien encounter. He shows how Akhenaten and his family are always portrayed with elongated skulls and explores the connection between ancient aliens and Mars, including the Martian materials used in Egyptian monuments. He explains the original purpose of the pyramids--to transmit uplifting energy throughout the planet to help expand consciousness--and explores how they were decommissioned after the Great Flood of prehistory. He reveals how the original builders of the pyramids foresaw humanity's fall from the Golden Age and strategically encoded these magnificent structures to wake humanity from the depths of the Dark Ages.

Ancient Mysteries of Egypt

Who was Pharaoh Akhenaten and his Queen Neferiti and how did he change Egypt's old religion? What are the mysteries buried beneath the sands of Egypt--The Hall of Records talked about by the late mystic Edgar Cayce? Kristen Ann takes us on an incredible journey of ancient Egypt where she explored and investigated ancient mysteries of Egypt through the years, included in her new book, Exploring Sacred Space: A Vast Quest.
Learn about Omm Sety, a woman who devoted sixty-five years of her life in Egypt which began with a NDE (near death experience) as a child in London. After her NDE Omm Sety, aka Dorothy Eady, began to talk about another life in ancient Egypt and her love for a Pharoah that cost her life in that era. This is one of the greatest love stories of our time and one of the best documented stories of reincarnation.
Kristen has spent a lifetime studying spirituality and metaphysics. A near-death experience as a child later sent her on a quest to learn spiritual truths in the 1960s. In the mid '70s she studied Anthroposophy, which is the science and findings of Rudolf Steiner from 1974-76. Website: www.exploringsacredspace.com

Christian Don't Return to Egypt Pt1 on Sound the Shofar
in Religion
Christian Don't Return to Egypt Pt1 | ID# rb-112114-christian-don't-return-egypt-pt1
Christian Don't Return to Egypt Pt1 begins with the example of Israel in Egypt. It is easy in America to lose track of the Lord. In our rich society many have gotten caught up in society and the worlds attractions. But for the believer, we have been delivered out of the world, from our sins, and removed from their bondages. Yet for many believers, bondage is a way of life. In fact, many return to Egypt, back into bondage from whence the Lord delivered them.

It's been 10 years since a lunatic ran on track at Silverstone (VIDEO)
Jun 25, 2013, 4:00 PM EST
People might not remember who won the 2003 British Grand Prix off the top of their heads, but chances are they do remember this guy.
Defrocked priest Neil Horan interrupted the race when he somehow made it onto the track, running on the Hangar Straight straight into oncoming traffic while carrying religious signage and wearing a kilt. Mercifully, he was taken down by a course marshal and moved off to the side of the track. He'd eventually face legal charges of aggravated trespass and spend two months behind bars.
As for his impact on the Grand Prix, it caused the year's most abnormal safety car period and a flurry of cars entered the pits as a result. Rubens Barrichello eventually took the win from pole position, ahead of Juan Pablo Montoya and Kimi Raikkonen.
You can see this year's British Grand Prix live on CNBC, not NBC Sports Network, at 7:30 a.m. ET Sunday morning and also live streamed via NBC Sports Live Extra.

Food banks a life or death issue
Share via Email
Re: Food banks stretched to their limit, Nov. 5
Food banks stretched to their limit, Nov. 5
Why are so many Canadians using the food bank?
The number of people using food banks grows day by day and most of the food banks receive no funding from the government. This issue of food bank use is a concern to 23 per cent of the population, so it must be a government issue. Food banks should not need to rely on donations or fundraising dinners to continue providing food for those in need.
The question is, what is the government doing about this? There are numerous seniors using food banks, not only young families or single people. They make sure they are punctual to their appointment, to avoid being cut off.
Canada is considered a "developed" nation. So why are people still living with hunger? This is shameful. Something has to be done.
It is time to create more jobs, more opportunities for people and let the flow go on. No man likes to beg, there is no dignity in begging. It is time to restore dignity and financial freedom back to the masses.
The food bank stretching to their limit is a life or death issue. So let's take it more seriously.

Classmates plans 'total revamp' as a nostalgia networking site
Send this to a friend
- Todd Bishop
Classmates.com's competition with Facebook has been the subject of many posts on this site, and a classic satire in the Onion, with the headline, "Classmates.com Employees Don't Have Heart to Tell CEO about Facebook." And as recently as February, Mark Goldston, CEO of Classmates parent United Online, seemed to be playing the part, downplaying the Facebook threat during a Goldman Sachs conference.
But this week, faced with declining revenue in the Seattle-based Classmates Media unit, Goldston's tone changed noticeably. On a call with analysts, he acknowledged challenges "including the economy, the continued increasing adoption of free social networking features, and the maturity of Classmates' historical value proposition."
So what's Classmates.com to do? As reported by Joe Tartakoff of PaidContent.org, the social network plans to reinvent itself as a repository of "nostalgic content" starting with its previously reported digital yearbook project but going much further than that.
"Our goal," Goldston said on the conference call, "is to become the foremost provider of nostalgic content on the web."
Members will still have profiles and photos, but on top of the existing social networking features, Classmates will add a variety of new types of content aimed at making users more engaged with the site.
"We're currently preparing a total revamp of Classmates, which will not only continue to provide an opportunity for user-generated content, but it's going to contemplate the provision of a vast amount of third-party content," Goldston told analysts and investors on the conference call. "That's anticipated to include nostalgic videos, movies, TV shows, old commercials, vintage music, historical magazines, digitized newspapers, posters, and all types of other nostalgic material. Our goal is to leverage our resources, our brand, our technology and importantly our member base of over 50 million adults, to create a completely unique platform for creating a stroll down memory lane via the Internet."

Foundation giving likely to fall 10%
Send this to a friend
- Kelly Johnson
- Sacramento Business Journal
Foundation giving has shrunk more than expected this year, and the decline will be worse next year, according to a survey released Wednesday.
When the year wraps up, foundation giving likely will be down by more than 10 percent. The Foundation Center predicted a fall of 8 percent to 13 percent earlier this year.
The Foundation Center, a New York City organization supported by nearly 550 foundations, also predicts that foundation giving will decrease even more in 2010.
Those were the findings of the center's year-end outlook survey conducted in September. Some 593 foundations provided useable responses.
"Foundations will be giving less than they expected at the beginning of the year," Bradford Smith, the organization's president, said in a news release. "But many are rethinking their grant making so that fewer dollars will not necessarily mean less impact."
The survey found that more than three-fourths of respondents "expect that the field of philanthropy will become more strategic as a result of having weathered the crisis. The focus of long-term changes range from governance to grantee relations to investments," the release said.
Most grant makers, the survey found, believe the nonprofit sector will emerge stronger from the recession.
"Our survey found that many foundations have made difficult strategic choices as a result of the economic crisis, including reducing staff," Steven Lawrence, senior director of research at the Foundation Center and author of the advisory, said in the release. "They expect that their grantees will be similarly committed to restructuring their operations to reflect the new reality."

This celebrated sci-fi tale follows the exploits of a young man, Vic (Don Johnson), and his sardonic telepathic dog, Blood, as they struggle through the barren wilderness in search of food and women. In the midst of their meager existence, Vic and Blood encounter Quilla June (Susanne Benton), a dubious young woman who lures them into a surreal city deep beneath the earth's surface. Initially elated to find a colony of survivors, Vic and Blood quickly learn this city is not what it seems. Fans of this cult classic can pre-order their copy at shoutfactory.com.

Mon, Nov. 17, 9:46 AM
- A month after Qualcomm announced it's buying CSR (CSRE -0.3%) for $2.5B, Microchip (MCHP +0.4%) says it has ended discussions regarding a bid of its own.
- Microchip said in August it has held buyout talks with CSR, whose Bluetooth, GPS, and A/V chips target many of the same end-markets as Microchip's microcontrollers. But the company called the talks "very preliminary."
Fri, Oct. 31, 11:31 AM
- Three weeks after providing a calendar Q3 warning that triggered a massive chip stock rout, Microchip (MCHP +7.3%) has provided Q4 guidance that's in-line with lowered estimates. The microcontroller vendor, which has often seen trends emerge ahead of peers, also said it saw most of its inventory correction in Q3, and expects Q4 sales to be just "slightly below typical seasonal levels."
- Chip stocks are up strongly (SOXX +4%) on a day the Nasdaq is up 1.4%. Since Microchip's warning, a slew of analog chipmakers and microcontroller firms (e.g. Atmel, Freescale, STMicro, Intersil, Linear) have offered light Q4 guidance, and other firms have reported seeing high-end Android weakness (e.g. Synaptics, Cirrus Logic, Amkor).
- On the other hand, several mobile chipmakers (Skyworks, RF Micro, TriQuint, Silicon Motion), some of which have decent iPhone exposure, have provided strong results and/or guidance. Other chipmakers, such as Broadcom, Texas Instruments, and Xilinx, have rallied after delivering in-line guidance.
- Susquehanna's Chris Caso: "By now, we think it's clear that the weakness MCHP saw in September is not company specific ... The question now is if the full extent of the weakness has been dialed into estimates. If it has, then this would be among the shortest and mildest downturns in many years."
- Notable gainers: SNDK +3.9%. MU +4.1%. AMAT +3.9%. TXN +4.7%. NXPI +3.9%. NVDA +3.5%. MXIM +4.7%. LLTC +5.1%. FCS +9.6%. FSL +8.8%. ADI +6.5%. TQNT +6.8%. RFMD +6.5%. ATML +5.9%. AVGO +5.1%. MRVL +4.7%. AMCC +8.9%. BRCM +3.6%. TSM +4.4%. ARMH +3.3%.
- Intel (INTC +3.5%) has recovered most of the losses it saw yesterday due to Intesil's (ISIL +3.3%) results and guidance, and related comments about a PC chip inventory correction.
- Chip ETFs: SMH, XSD, PSI, SOXL, USD, SOXS, SSG
Fri, Oct. 31, 9:06 AM
Thu, Oct. 30, 5:38 PM
- Microchip Technology (NASDAQ:MCHP) declares $0.3565/share quarterly dividend, 0.1% increase from prior dividend of $0.356.
- Forward yield 3.47%
- Payable Dec. 5; for shareholders of record Nov. 21; ex-div Nov. 19.
Thu, Oct. 30, 5:23 PM
- Microchip (NASDAQ:MCHP) expects FQ3 revenue of $508M-$535.3M and EPS of $0.59-$0.64, in-line with a consensus of $525.4M and $0.62. That's better than feared, given the warning issued three weeks ago (sent shockwaves throughout the chip industry).
- The microcontroller vendor, known for experiencing industry swings ahead of many peers, says it saw "most" of its market correction in FQ2, and expects FQ3 revenue to be only "slightly below typical seasonal levels." Peers such as Atmel, STMicroelectronics, and Freescale have issued light Q4 guidance.
- Gross margin rose 10 bps Y/Y in FQ2 to 59.1%. It's expected to fall to 58%-58.2% in FQ3.
- Though officially below consensus, FQ2 revenue matched the guidance provided in Microchip's warning.
- FQ2 results, PR
Thu, Oct. 30, 4:16 PM
- Microchip Technology (NASDAQ:MCHP): FQ2 EPS of $0.67 in-line.
- Revenue of $546.2M (+10.9% Y/Y) misses by $2.4M.
- Shares -0.46%.
- Press Release
Fri, Oct. 10, 12:45 PM
Fri, Oct. 10, 9:59 AM
- Microchip's (MCHP -12.5%) calendar Q3 warning, which was accompanied by a declaration that it believes "another industry correction has begun and that this correction will be seen more broadly across the industry in the near future," is taking a heavy toll on chip stocks (SOXX -5.5%).
- Intel (INTC -4.2%) and many other chipmakers have joined the several firms that sold off AH yesterday in going in the same direction as Microchip: MU -5.8%. FSL -8.5%. BRCM -3.6%. SWKS -7.5%. RFMD -6.2%. XLNX -4.9%. MXIM -5%. AMBA -5.5%. IDTI -6.7%. CAVM -7.4%. AVGO -10.2%. SMTC -4.3%. SYNA -4.1%. POWI -6.9%.
- Chip equipment makers are also getting hit: AMAT -3.5%. KLAC -3.3%. LRCX -2.3%. UTEK -2.5%. KLIC -2%.
- As Microchip noted in yesterday's warning, the company's very diversified customer base, together with its recognition of distributor revenue on a customer sell-through basis rather than a distributor sell-in basis, often allow it to see industry changes before peers.
- The microcontroller vendor added its warning was driven by a September decline in sales to Chinese clients, and observed it has typically "returned to sequential revenue growth after two quarters" during past downturns.
- Chip stocks have had a good run over the last 12 months, aided by healthy mobile demand and the industry's consolidation wave.
Fri, Oct. 10, 9:07 AM
Thu, Oct. 9, 4:37 PM
- Microchip (NASDAQ:MCHP) expects FQ2 revenue of $546.2M, below prior guidance of $560M-$575.9M and a $567.9M consensus.
- CEO Steve Sanghi: "The month of September is usually a strong month for our revenue after the summer holiday period. This time, the September sales did not materialize to our expectations. The revenue miss was led by China where the September quarter is traditionally the strongest."
- Sanghi also highlights Microchip's status as a bellwether for the chip industry, due to its 80K+ customers and recognition of distributor revenue based on sell-through to customers rather than distributor sell-in. "We believe that another industry correction has begun and that this correction will be seen more broadly across the industry in the near future."
- Chip ETFs: SOXX, SMH, XSD, PSI, SOXL, USD, SOXS, SSG
Thu, Aug. 28, 6:20 PM
- Microchip (MCHP +0.8%) confirms it has held talks with CSR (CSRE +35.3%) about "ways in which [Microchip's] relationship with CSR could be advanced, including possibly an acquisition of CSR." However, the talks are said to be "at a very preliminary stage."
- Microchip, whose microcontrollers are sometimes found within products that also contain CSR's Bluetooth, GPS, or A/V chips, notes it has partnered with CSR in the past, with a Bluetooth module initiative being one example.
- Back in May, Microchip announced it's buying Taiwanese Bluetooth chipmaker ISSC for $294.3M. The company has also snapped up analog chipmaker Supertex, as it takes part in a broader chip industry M&A wave.
- Earlier: CSR turns down Microchip's buyout offer
Thu, Aug. 28, 7:14 AM
- U.K. chipmaker CSR (NASDAQ:CSRE) has turned down a takeover approach from rival Microchip (NASDAQ:MCHP).
- Although it did not provide details of the proposal, CSR states, "the price proposed by Microchip has been rejected and the board is considering its options for the company."
Fri, Aug. 1, 6:55 PM
- In addition to beating FQ1 estimates, Microchip (MCHP +2.3%) guided for FQ2 revenue of $560M-$575.9M and EPS of $0.70-$0.74, largely above a consensus of $547.6M and $0.71.
- Microchip, often viewed as a bellwether for the chip industry, says it's "seeing a seasonally normal business environment with strengths in many of our end markets like industrial, automotive, housing, consumer electronics and personal computing."
- Microcontroller revenue rose 5.3% Q/Q and 14.5% Y/Y, with all 3 of the company's microcontroller lines - 8-bit, 16-bit, and 32-bit - posting Q/Q growth. Analog revenue (not counting the Supertex deal) rose 2.6% Q/Q and 6.8% Y/Y. Counting Supertex, analog was 24% of total revenue.
- Gross margin +50 bps Q/Q and +180 bps Y/Y to 59.8%. Microchip expects an FQ2 GM of 59.2%-59.6%.
- Microcontroller rival Atmel (ATML +2.3%) has followed Microchip higher. Atmel's Q2 report is due on Aug. 6.

Thu, Jul. 31, 6:37 PM

EURO GOVT-Spain, Italy suffer as investors switch to safe havens
LONDON Jan 31 (Reuters) - Spanish and Italian government bond yields rose on Thursday as some investors switched from higher-yielding debt into core German Bunds in the wake of the U.S. Federal Reserve's latest meeting.
Spanish 10-year yields rose 10 basis points on the day to 5.31 percent while equivalent Italian debt rose 10 bps to 4.38 percent.
German Bund futures were half a point higher, spurred on by a lack of signals that the Fed's loose monetary policy would end any time soon.

How does a stroke affect family members?
Updated On: May 21 2013 10:33:41 AM EDT
When a person suffers a stroke, not only is his or her life potentially altered, but also the lives of his or her loved ones and caregivers.
Family members and caregivers are often tasked with providing support, encouragement and assistance as a patient recovers from a stroke. They are often tasked with helping a loved one perform daily tasks as well as making sure they are safe.
While the caregivers' actions are appreciated by the survivor, and can also be rewarding as they see the survivor make progress in his or her recovery, it can also be difficult. Caring for someone can be stressful and at times frustrating.
To help curb these emotional ups and downs, it's important to find ways to release stress, to have a support system to help share some of the caretaking responsibilities, and to communicate with the patient. These can all help make things easier for the patient and the caregiver.

Manhattan Landmark SideWalk Cafe Kicks of 20th Anniversary Celebration 2/19
"From the beginning, Sidewalk's performance space was home to a supportive community of artists inspired by the sense of creative freedom they found there," notes Ben Krieger, who books SideWalk's live entertainment. "This nurturing environment has allowed generations of artists to find their voice and deepen their craft, launching them into the broader world of songwriting and performing."
The Antifolk Festival was started in the mid-1980s by a group of young songwriters, whose raucous style made them unwelcome in local folk clubs, as an Underground alternative to the popular annual New York Folk Festival. The Antifolk movement's subsequent association with SideWalk Cafe began when the group's ringleader, Lach, formed a partnership with the restaurant, establishing a weekly open mic session in its back room. Subsequently, SideWalk has nurtured the careers of successful artists like Regina Spektor, The Moldy Peaches (Kimya Dawson and Adam Green), Jeffrey Lewis, Langhorne Slim, Nellie McKay and numerous others who performed their earliest shows there.
The Winter Antifolk Festival will take place Feb. 19 - 28 with more than 80 free evening concerts over the ten-day period at SideWalk Cafe, 94 Avenue A (at 6th). For more information and schedule details of the Winter Antifolk Festival and SideWalk LIVE, 20th Anniversary, visit www.sidewalkny.com/calendar or call (212) 473-7373.

The recent talk about chip and pin cards on this forum has gotten me thinking about our upcoming trip. We will be driving from Rocamadour to Uzes via Carcassone on a Sunday. I had thought I would get an Andrews chip and pin card to deal with unmanned gas stations and toll booths. However, to get the card, I have to submit several years of tax returns, something I am not comfortable doing. Will I be able to find manned gas stations on this route, or do I need to suck it up and turn over all my financial records?

Commonwealth 'profoundly' concerned over impeachment of Sri Lanka's Chief Justice
Sat, Jan 12, 2013, 09:45 am SL Time, ColomboPage News Desk, Sri Lanka.
Jan 12, Colombo: The Commonwealth said it is 'profoundly' concerned about the decision taken by the Sri Lankan parliament Friday to impeach the country's first female Chief Justice and urged the Sri Lankan government to carefully evaluate the ramifications before taking any further decisions.
The Sri Lankan parliament Friday passed the impeachment motion against the Chief Justice Dr. Shirani Bandaranayake by a majority of 106 votes.
Issuing a statement, the Secretary-General of the Commonwealth, Kamalesh Sharma said the impeachment of a Chief Justice is a very serious matter and in this particular case, it has called into question aspects of Sri Lanka's Constitution.
"The Commonwealth, collectively, is profoundly concerned about this situation," Sharma said.
The Secretary-General asked the Sri Lankan urged the Sri Lankan Government to pause for further careful consideration over the decision to impeach the top judge.
"I strongly urge that time be taken to reflect and consider fully the constitutional and other ramifications of the differing positions taken by the Judiciary and Legislature before any decision is taken by the Executive on the impeachment of the Chief Justice," Sharma cautioned in his statement.
The Secretary-General said he has been in touch with the Sri Lankan Government at the highest levels to offer Commonwealth assistance to find a way forward.
"I recognise that this is a matter for Sri Lanka, but am also conscious of our shared Commonwealth values and principles, to which Sri Lanka and all member governments have subscribed," the Secretary-General said.
According to Sri Lanka's Constitution, the President has to issue the final order to impeach a high court judge following the passage of the impeachment motion by the parliament with a simple majority.

Carlos Tevez wants to put his troubled Manchester City past behind him and remain at the Etihad Stadium to play a part in the club's future, the Independent has reported. Tevez joined City in a controversial move from Manchester United and missed five months of the current Premier League season after falling out with manager Roberto Mancini.
Tevez was fined and suspended for reportedly refusing to warm up during Manchester City's Champions League match with Borussia Dortmund, and responded to the punishment by returning to Argentina. Mancini later declared Tevez would never play for City again but following an apology by the striker, the manager welcomed Tevez back into the fold.
Since his return in March Tevez has scored four times, including a hat-trick against Norwich City in a 6-1 away win. Tevez's other goal so far came against West Bromwich Albion in a 4-0 triumph, while the 28-year-old is expected to feature against former club United in Monday evening's top of the table Manchester derby.
