"Hilarious, Action-packed, and perfectly performed!"
I bought this book on a recent trip to London (under its original title, "Rivers of London,") and enjoyed it immensely... But the audio version is even better! Part of the fun in this series is that the main character is a mixed-race copper who is constantly interacting with all the different groups in London's ethnic/class melting pot. Kobna Holdbrook-Smith has the astonishing ability to handle all the different dialects, switching seamlessly between them as the characters converse. It's vastly better than the version I had in my head (especially being an American).
As for the story itself, what's not to like about a novel in which a snarky young constable suddenly finds himself recruited into the branch of the Metropolitan Police that handles all the "funny business" (magic)?
Full of detail and color about the city of London, packed with delightful, memorable, and even poignant characters, and with a rollicking plot that never stops moving, I highly recommend this book and the rest of the series.
"A fascinating topic, but reads like a Ph.D. thesis"
As a former Boston resident, I really, really wanted to like this book...but for my taste, it was pretty dry stuff. I generally like histories featuring cultural, societal, and biographical tidbits -- I want a story about colorful individuals, vividly set in a different world -- but this book focuses largely on groups. Near the end it picks up energy, and the description of the Boston Massacre is absolutely gripping... But the book could have been so much better. The narration is a bit odd: the narrator has a very resonant voice, but his delivery is so mechanical it sounds almost artificial.
"Fun Even if You Aren't a Christie Fan"
I got this to listen to with my husband on a long drive, and it really is delightful! I confess that I find Agathat Christie's novels so creaky as to be almost unreadable, but David Suchet does such a terrific job reading this that even I thoroughly enjoyed it. And my husband, who has a higher tolerance for antique mysteries than I do, absolutely loved it.
After a few minutes you can almost forget that one person is doing all the voices. He even does the young women's voices well, which can't be easy. It's quite wonderful to listen to.
"Eviscerated rather than abridged"
I confess that when I downloaded this, I didn't notice that itt was abridged. I had read the book years ago and thought it was incredibly good: a thought-provoking look at a society just beginning to think scientifically, wrapped in a shifting story centered on the mysterious central character.
To my horror, the "abridgment" simply cuts out all the meat of the story with an ax, leaving us with a threadbare little Rashomon story. It's a horrible thing to inflict on a magnificent book.
Having said that... The reader is truly wonderful. Not only does he bring the accents of the characters to life (including Italian-accented British English and Robert Boyle's Scots burr), but he can switch accents in mid-sentence to accommodate both a narrator and a conversation.
My advice is read the book -- it's terrific. Look for other readings by Paul Michael. And with any luck someday an unabridged "Instance of the Fingerpost" will join the unabridged "Stone's Fall" (another shockingly good book by Iain Pears, this one about the rise of international capitalism... Wrapped in a very readable mystery) on Audible's virtual shelves.

It's hard to forgive or forget a stock that dropped 65% in one session of trading (April 2nd to be exact) but it seems that investors have renewed interest in Keryx Biopharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: KERX).
The huge drop that occurred at the start of April was due to the failure of the drug perifosine, which was being developed for the treatment of colon cancer. The drug was put in a phase II study with 468 patients in an attempt to demonstrate the drug's statistically significant impact on overall survival, but fell short miserably. With perifosine dead in the water, both Keryx and AEterna Zentaris (NASDAQ: AEZS) were left with very empty looking pipelines.
While AEterna Zentaris struggled to break its downtrend until September, Keryx saw immediate relief and has recovered about half of the damage since. The 6-month returns on KERX are over 100%, so any investors who bought into KERX in its moment of crisis were handsomely rewarded for bravery.
The KERX rally continues on the prospects of its one and only pipeline drug Zerenex (ferric citrate), which is in phase III trials under SPA (Special Protocol Assessment) designated by the FDA. This allows Zerenex a chance at FDA approval before the completing of its phase III trials. The likely approval of Zerenex is giving Keryx shareholders something to cling to in the wake of the disaster of perifosine's phase II failure.
KERX shares moved up 5.4% to $2.93/share by afternoon trading, due to an upgraded price target of $5.00/share (from $3.00/share) issued by Landernburg Thalmann, bringing the shares to a new post-perifosine high. This is a textbook example of a "breakout", which may get some technical traders interested.
Keryx is also benefiting from a significantly reduced R&D budget (which has declined about 40% relative to 2011), which reflects that the company has only one responsibility at this point - to bring Zerenex to market for treatment of elevated phosphate levels. It's hard to say how far the market's momentum will take the stock as we wait for an FDA decision, but an approval could probably send this breakout stock closer to the $5.00 target pained by Landernburg.
Since the stock has already come so far, however, it may be a good idea to take a conservative bite if you're not a fast-paced kind of investor.

Look what Kirsten S from Germany has to say about her blissful SwellWomen experience:
K: Joining SwellWomen on a Maui retreat was truly life changing for me and one of my biggest adventures to date. Maui is just an amazing and peaceful place to be. The beaches, the ocean, nature and the atmosphere are epic. There's no place I would rather be!
On this wonderful retreat, I met some of the loveliest and most fun ladies ever. It was amazing how well the group got along and respected everyone's personality. It's just sad we didn't have more time together. And then… I met the love of my life: Surfing. I barely have words to describe this experience. Being out on the ocean, riding the waves, paddling out again and again to get another ride, feeling dizzy from the waves. All this brought me pure bliss and I can't wait to catch my next wave.
Kirsten, what are you doing today to follow your bliss?
I locked in my Maui experience into my heart. Every now and then I pull out a picture or piece of memory and enjoy it. That's my type of meditation. I try to be more of the person SwellWomen brought out of me – and to live aloha. And needless to say, I'm already planning my next retreat.
Chef Jana McMahon's interest in food started early… in the kitchen of her parents and at the ovens of her grandmothers.
A degreed horticulturalist and cuisine savvy, her dishes utilize locally grown fresh Hawaiian product, simply yet elegantly prepared.
Her 20 plus years of cooking experience spans from working "in the trenches" under accomplished Colorado chefs in several fine dining restaurants in Denver and Vail, partner in Glorious Food Catering in Maui, Executive Chef onboard the Hawaiian Based, Yacht Kakela, to owner of a Maui based private chef service.
Jana has appeared on The Travel Channel and Hawaiian Moving Company.
She is a Hawaii Master Gardener, a beekeeper and a champion of local food producers.
She is a founding board member of Slow Food Maui and a member of Chef's Collaborative. Jana volunteers for Grow Some Good, Maui school garden advocates & educators, in her spare time.
Jana is also a Culinary and Agricultural Consultant for TERI, in San Diego.
She is one busy lady and we at SwellWomen are grateful that she dedicated her time for this interview. Ladies & Gentleman….I introduce to you one of the most amazing women I have had the pleasure of getting to know over the last 5 years. Read and get inspired…..
My business evolved out of recognizing a niche or need for in home chef services for people vacationing on Maui. I had recently left my job as Executive Chef aboard the Hawaiian based Yacht Kakela and had some severance pay. Marketing to property managers with an offer to sample some of my food got my foot in the door and the rest is history. Chef Jana McMahon. LLC will celebrate 10 years next spring. I am a chef with a degree in agriculture. I am fortunate to be able to share the story of my food with my clients which in turn connects them to the meal in a delicious way….a great way to share Hawaii and it's culture.
Following your passion is important. I find if someone is passionate about something they are generally pretty good at it. Keep refining that which gets you up in the morning, whether that's growing a carrot, raising a child, moving a paintbrush on a canvas, perfecting a yoga pose or catching a wave….keep at it. Growth is what fuels me as a human.
I also have a consulting business which takes me to San Diego frequently where I collaborate with TERI, a non-profit which educates and houses people touched by autism and developmental disabilities. I have been able to use my passions for food and farming to help TERI create a healthy culture. I helped install organic urban farms and gardens at TERI's group homes which feed residents organic weekly produce, create 365 days of healthy menus which has dropped the residential obesity rate from 85-15% and create a healthy affordable lunch program for staff.
Pay attention to the market. Keep your message and marketing simple and direct. Don't fall into the mistake of "clever" business names. For example, I noticed a business named "Smooth Moves". I had no idea if it was a yoga studio, smoothies or colonics. (It was a smoothie store which is no longer in business.)
Surfing has helped my practice of staying in the moment. When surfing, I am literally no where else but right there in the water looking, watching and waiting for the next wave. It helps me practice getting out my monkey mind chatter and just be. A glorious perfect gift of a present moment in time.

This month we had the opportunity to interview Luke Adolfson, an amazing Surf Instructor from Goofy Foot. Luke headed up our SwellWomen Surf Classes in September which received raving reviews. He had a huge success rate taking novice surfers from learning the basics to riding their first wave of bliss by day 3. Read on to learn more about this awesome guy….
My most memorable surf day is a hard one to answer. There are so many definitions of a perfect session. Whether it be half a foot waves and you and all your best friends are messing around having a blast, or you're surfing the best wave of your life at the most coveted surf spot you have ever dreamed about. Or there's the session when you take out a person who otherwise wouldn't be able to surf by themselves and share the incredible "time of their lives" with them, or there's the days when you're surfing in a third world country and meet new friends and later rescue them from moped riding, machete swinging bandits(no exaggeration) and become friends for life. The adventures of surfing are remarkable.
When beginners are nervous about surfing, it is usually a fear of getting hurt. The best way to overcome that is to first, be safe. Find someone who can teach you the RIGHT WAY and is very knowledgeable about the ocean. When people have bad experiences with surfing it usually is because they tried it on their own or had some raunchy instruction. A good instructor will comfort you through the anxiety and nervousness of surfing.
The pro surfer that inspires me the most is my friend Torrey Meister. I have been able to see his journey and trials and him overcome them.Read More »
Look what Laura R from the UK has to say about her blissful SwellWomen experience ~
L: When signing up to go to the SwellWomen retreat I completely underestimated what a life changing holiday it would be.
From the location in Maui, the Yoga location & instructors, the surf school, to the incredible new friends I made, this was a holiday of a life time! It gives you a time out and the chance to re-charge and re-connect with yourself.
Since my return to the UK, my time has been spent doing the following:
I'm excited to see what adventure will be next!Read More »
This month we shine the spotlight on Katherine Wilder, Founder of The Wilder Way. Katherine's yoga journey began in 2001 with an invitation to join a friend for a power yoga class at the YMCA, that was all it took. She left class feeling so expanded and free as well as intimately connected in her body and mind that she knew she needed to share this gift with as many people as she could. In 2004, this desire to teach lead Katherine to The Nosara Yoga Institute in Costa Rica for a month long intensive of diving deep into herself and the teachings of the ancient system of yoga. It was the first time that she began to experience these Universal Truths and a sense of "remembering" that all of the answers have always been within. Her asana practice and self study deepened for several years which then lead her to the philosophy of Tantric Yoga through the Anusara Yoga method. These teachings have had the most influence on Katherine's life, yoga practice, and teaching style, unveiling the deepest experience and understanding of connection between the spirit, mind, & body. It is this understanding that fuels her teachings, Katherine encourages her students to remember the importance of having fun and how to play in the realms of the mind and body liberating the spirit. She has learned through experience that creating proper alignment in the mind and body allows for freedom in heart. It is through the power of these potent teachings that Katherine's light playful nature lives and her classes encourage others to do the same. Katherine's yoga practice and teachings have been accompanied by a therapeutic massage practice for the past 14 years, which shows up in her classes as a deep understanding of how the body works and lots of yummy hands on adjustments. Katherine is most grateful and blessed for all the amazing teachers in her life that have so openly shared their wisdom, passion, and hearts along this path of consciousness. She desires to share the same with her students.
SwellWomen…I introduce to you….the amazing & gifted Katherine Wilder!
I have been blessed to be practicing therapeutic massage for 14 years. After 4 years in the spa industry, there didn't seem to be much room for therapeutic bodywork or education. So, 10 years ago I was inspired to start freelancing as I found that it offered more freedom with my scheduling, how I wanted to treat my clients, and what I could offer. With the work I facilitate, the client/therapist relationship is very important to the work and healing process. Freelancing allows me the time and energy to cultivate those kinds of relationships with my clientele. Having a larger client base also keeps me motivated as the more people I see and treat, the more it seems people are very interested in learning about their mind body connection and how important posture and body mechanics are to them. We only have 1 body, which is our vehicle for this lifetime, how we treat it is of utmost importance. My style is unique to the industry, so this year I launched The Wilder Way which encompasses my philosophy with the therapeutic work I do and the type of yoga I teach.
My first bit of "advice" for anyone who thinks their life is out of balance would be to ask themselves, "Which parts of my life do I think are out of balance?" and "Why?" We cannot shift until we recognize what needs shifting. So first things first, identify what you would like to shift or change. I would then suggest to categorize your goals into short term and long term. With any changes to our lives, we need to be realistic as we are generally going to experience a little bit of resistance. Also keep in mind that we want to create long lasting changes that will serve us in the highest. There is a lot to be said with being gentle with ourselves, the "dictator mentality" hardly ever wins and is no fun! The simple concepts of "We are what we eat!" as well as "We are what we think" will go a long way! So balance in all aspects of the SELF ~ mind.body.spirit are of utmost importance. I would also suggest having fun along the journey, life is short!
There are five benefits that come straight to mind:
Surfing has taught me to be patient as there will always be another wave! It has created a humbleness in me unlike any other sport as surfing is so incredibly challenging & the ocean so powerful that you always have to be aware and respectful of nature. Being in the water reminds me how awesome Mother Nature is and last but not least I can go surf all by myself, which makes it very peaceful!
Words Katherine lives by…
"To live a creative life, we must lose the fear of being wrong."
~ Joseph Chilton Pierce
Ladies, as you go off and about your daily life, be mindful to experience moments of joy. The joy of freshly washed sheets… the joy of a morning yoga session… the joy of time spent with laughing little ones.
When you're ready for a an entire week of blissful experiences, consider a SwellWomen vacation in paradise. Find your bliss learning to surf the world's best waves. Check out our rates & dates!

I would tell them to imagine they had all the money in the world and then ask themselves if they would still be passionate about starting their own business.
Surfing with SwellWomen in Maui was a great way to learn how to surf. The retreat offered great instruction and the beaches were beautiful. The group of women who attended came from diverse backgrounds and I still keep in touch with some of them 5 years on!
As for how surfing has changed my life, it taught me to be patient (similar to waiting for a good wave) but also to be bold and act with conviction (like committing to a wave that might feel a bit too much). It's kind of cool to live like you surf.

Carly Williams is a health & lifestyle coach for from Colorado. Through her business, The Sideways Approach, she helps passionate women take an interest in their health, feel more energetic and find perfect balance in life.
For Carly, paddling out to a wave on her surfboard and snowboarding a fresh trail down a mountain is about going with the flow and reinforces the value of being present. We interviewed Carly about her business, surfing, and advice she has for other women …
A: Being in the action sports industry for over eight years allowed me to meet some really cool girls who are living out their dream of surfing, snowboarding or skating professionally. I was really inspired by these women and felt that the lifestyle that goes along with these sports can be incorporated into the lives of all females.
I noticed that each of these top athletes cultivate a positive mindset, healthy living, unlimited passion and a strong sense for adventure. I want to encourage all women to embrace these attributes regardless of where they are at in their life. I also learned a lot about marketing while working on so many great brands alongside industry leaders and that provided me with the business skills I needed to feel confident enough to venture out on my own. The rest is just purely riding on a dream to run a business I believe in and connect with women all around the world.
A: One of the many lessons I have learned from surfing is about non-resistance and going with the flow in all areas of life. In the water when I hurry and try to manipulate the surfboard into doing what I want I stumble and fall. Yet, when I breathe calmly, stay present and let the wave pick me up and guide me I go for a ride every time.
Just like in life when I try to force and push and pull things to happen I usually end up frustrated and confused. However, if I just go with it and do not resist what life has to offer, things beautifully fall into place.
A: I think for all women it is important to take time and evaluate our current life situation and determine where we are off balance. I believe that the foundations of balance include, good nutrition, regular physical activity, healthy relationships, a fulfilling career, some sort of spiritual practice and community involvement. If we find that one or more of these foundations is a little off it is easy to balance it out again by slowly incorporating small, positive, manageable changes into our daily lives.
Whether it be adding more greens into our diet or finding a new outdoor activity that makes us feel good or taking interest in something we are passionate about just make sure to do things that bring ultimate joy and never ending adventure.

If you are thinking about converting your basement into a secondary suite, there are many benefits. The added value to your home, the extra income from a rental, and the fact that they provide affordable housing to others are all attractive features.
There are also many things to consider.
Basement apartments - also known as granny-suites, in-law suites or secondary suites - require planning to ensure you are optimizing the benefits. For example, the space must conform to zoning, building and fire code requirements. Your home must be located in a zone that allows for secondary suites. It is also important to confirm the suite meets fire regulations, like having a separate exit, allowing for adequate fire separation, and adequate size and heights in each room. Lerners, together with your city's Planning or Building Departments, can help you determine whether your plans conform to these requirements.
The next step is contacting your insurance company to inform them that you are adding a basement apartment to your home. They add extra risk to the property, so expect your insurance premiums to go up as a result. If you do not inform your insurance company, they may refuse to approve your claim should damage occur to the home.
During the construction phase, you should also consider whether your space is safe and healthy. Doing this means ensuring there is sufficient natural light, the ceiling is high enough, there is adequate heating, ventilation, thermal and sound insulation, good fire protection and reliable heat and smoke alarms.
It is important to recognize that a basement apartment, by adding value to your property, may also raise your property tax. Any rent earned from tenants will also need to be declared as income on your tax returns. Reasonable operating expenses are eligible as deductions, however.
Finally, some cities, including the City of London, have introduced by-laws specifically related to rental units. Depending on your location, you may need to secure a "landlord licence" prior to renting to a tenant.
Whether you are just starting to think about adding a rental suite, or if you have one already, the experienced lawyers at Lerners are happy to discuss your needs and how we can help you, in the words of HGTV's Scott McGillvray, "start taking cheques to the bank".

Mechdyne Expanding Its Presence in the Middle East
Mechdyne Corporation is expanding its presence in the Middle East by opening a new office in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and hiring a new Business Development Associate for that region.
September 30, 2012 9:06 by Dawn Bentley
Mechdyne Corporation is expanding its presence in the Middle East by opening a new office in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and hiring a new Business Development Associate for that region.
Hamdi Aslan is serving as Mechdyne's new Business Development Associate for the Middle East region. Aslan, who grew up in the UAE, has an extensive background in technology and business development. With his high level of experience and expertise, Aslan is available to meet with organizations who would be interested in knowing more about how today's technologies can enhance data, improve decision making, streamline everyday work flow, and deliver a positive return on investment.
Mechdyne's new Middle East office is located in Abu Dhabi. However, the U.S. based company has already delivered a number of projects in that region of the world.
One of Mechdyne's most notable Middle East projects to date is the region's most technologically advanced university, King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Thuwal, Saudi Arabia. Mechdyne served as design and engineering consultant for the Geometric Modeling and Scientific Visualization Research Center (GM&SVRC) at KAUST university complex. The GM&SVRC, which KAUST developed in collaboration with the University of California San Diego, demonstrates the university's commitment to provide the world's best tools for research into some of the most challenging questions in science and technology.
After a competitive bid process, Mechdyne was also selected to integrate visualization technology in the state-of-the art facility. Highlights of the facilities include seven collaborative environments supporting high-resolution, 3D stereoscopic imaging capability. Designed and engineered by Mechdyne, KAUST's showcase system is the world's brightest six-sided immersive room, providing students and researchers from around the world with unmatched capability to transform data sets into rich three-dimensional (3D) visual information.
After the project was complete, Mechdyne Global Technical Service Division was also selected to provide service and support for all the visualization and AV technologies on the 14 square mile campus.
About Mechdyne Corporation
Mechdyne is one of the world's leading providers of innovative visual information technologies. We bend technology to our will in ways that transform complex data into insights and ideas. To ensure our customers succeed, we provide comprehensive, customized solutions that include consulting, software, technical services, and hardware integration.

Shows how a documentary can be as moving and suspenseful as the best narrative feature.
The players are timelessly familiar in American Teen, too. But filmmaker Nanette Burstein tells their stories with a distinctly 21st-century pop and audacity.
The kids are real and their stories enthralling: When it comes to drama, there's nothing quite like high school.
Though it's compelling enough as soap opera, American Teen digs deeply into why kids grudgingly accept the roles they've been given and the brutal consequences that come with straying outside the lines.

AnthonyK.Dec 30, 2008Not good, not good at all. Were it not a (completely scripted) "documentary", this would be the most unremarkable film of the year. As it stands, it's still pretty unremarkable. Don't waste your time.… Full Review »
JayH.Dec 16, 2008Fascinating documentary, and gives a very insightful look at American teenagers. It makes you think and you do care about the teens in the story. I do question the sincerity, it seems a little odd that these teens do some of the things they do on camera, particularly acts of vandalism.… Full Review »
DaleMSep 8, 2008This movie claims to be a documentary but felt contrived. Are we supposed to imagine these people don't notice the camera? Are they hamming it up as they do in reality TV or are they rehashing the past or are they reading from a script? The characters come off all too often as stereotypes. Take away the idea that the film is a documentary and you are left with a boring and failed attempt to be American Graffiti for the present decade.… Full Review »

Paul Konerko said he took some "dry swings" yesterday and felt 'OK' afterward. He has not played since Sept. 2 in Minnesota due to a fracture sesamoid bone in his left hand.
Their record might not show it, but prior evidence and days like Thursday have Chris Sale believing the White Sox are trending upward.
The Paul Konerko farewell tour could be coming to an abrupt end.
White Sox center fielder Adam Eaton has been known to give it his all on the field.

People seem to enjoy things more when they know a lot of other people have been left out of the pleasure.Russell Baker
The book that I shall make people read is the book of the heart, which holds the key to the mystery of life.Meher Baba
The Israelis are mistaken if they think we do not have an alternative to negotiations. By Allah I swear they are wrong. The Palestinian people are prepared to sacrifice until either the last boy and the last girl raise the Palestinian flag over the walls, the churches and the mosques of Jerusalem.Yasser Arafat
What Kuwait did to the Palestinian people is worse than what has been done by Israel to Palestinians in the occupied territories.Yasser Arafat
Talent is not universal but it is widely spread: Give enough people the capacity to create, and inevitably gems will emerge.Chris Anderson
Interestingly, according to modern astronomers, space is finite. This is a very comforting thought particularly for people who can never remember where they have left things.Woody Allen
If you can't feed a hundred people, then just feed one.Mother Teresa
There was no instruction to be thankful that the Christians were special people, chosen people. There was no nationalistic, political or ethnic superiority to be thankful for.John Clayton
Black people should have recognition for themselves and their backgrounds and their relationships with other people in the world and thus lose some of their alienation. This museum has certainly stood for that in this town.Katherine Dunham
People think of heaven as a paradise garden, a place where they can float on clouds and laze in rivers and mountains. But scenery without solace is meaningless.Albom, Mitch
If he have faith, the believer cannot be restrained. He betrays himself. He breaks out. He confesses and teaches this gospel to the people at the risk of life itself.Martin Luther
People have the idea of missionaries as going out with the Bible and hitting natives with it. It's not really what they were doing. They were all doing something rather different.Colin Firth
That was one of the things she held against missionaries: how they stressed Christ's submission to humiliation, and so had conditioned the people of Africa to humiliation by the white man.Nadine Gordimer
And people who do not know the Lord ask why in the world we waste our lives as missionaries. They forget that they too are expending their lives... and when the bubble has burst they will have nothing of eternal significance to show for the years they have wasted.Nate Saint
I was intrigued and enormously drawn to extremism by people who had blown their lives or who had taken their lives outside the normal conventions of society.Brett Whiteley
Some people think luxury is the opposite of poverty. It is not. It is the opposite of vulgarity.Coco Chanel
Vulgarity is the conduct of other people, just as falsehoods are the truths of other people.Oscar Wilde
Governments are republican only in proportion as they employ the will of the people and execute it.Thomas Jefferson
The Republican Party is a much bigger tent than people give it credit for. We have a lot of what I guess you all call moderate Republicans.Rudy Giuliani
The Democratic party has gone so far to the left that people just can't relate to it anymore and the Republican party is trying to go totally to the right.Glenn Danzig
There are people still in the Republican Party that I believe practice the communication of anger, of disappointment, of regret, of pain, of sorrow, of suffering. That's not what the American people want to hear.Frank Luntz
Our economy is robust and will remain strong as more Americans who want a job find one. Republican economic policies based on tax relief are working for the American people.Dennis Hastert
What old people say you cannot do, you try and find that you can. Old deeds for old people, and new deeds for new.Henry David Thoreau
Anyone who proposes to do good must not expect people to roll stones out of his way, but must accept his lot calmly, even if they roll a few stones upon it.Albert Schweitzer

I was visiting Napa Valley over the weekend, and at around 3:30AM on Sunday morning I awoke suddenly to what felt like some giant at the end of the bed shaking it as hard as he could. It was an earthquake. One of the scariest things about an earthquake is that when it happens, you have no idea how serious it is — you only know what it feels like where you are.

What now? Deal with the debt
The federal debt rose by $4.9 trillion during the two terms of President George W. Bush. It has already risen by more than $5 trillion under President Obama. At $16.2 trillion today, it is about 71 percent of gross domestic product. That cannot continue.
President Bush's excuses were war and Medicare. President Obama's excuses were the recession and the slow recovery. The time for excuses is over; the time to get the debt under control is now.
Two years ago the Congressional Budget Office warned that "growing budget deficits will cause debt to rise to unsupportable levels. Although deficits during or shortly after a recession generally hasten economic recovery, persistent deficits and continually mounting debt would have several negative economic consequences for the United States."
Among those negative consequences: As more money is sucked from the economy to finance the borrowing, economic growth would slow, and "rising debt would increasingly restrict the ability of policymakers to use fiscal policy to respond to unexpected challenges, such as economic downturns or international crises."
The warning was ignored. If such warnings continue to be ignored, we will be forced into another economic downturn by the sheer weight of our debt alone.
Let's get our spending under control so that doesn't happen.
