Voters left the balance of power in U.S. government unchanged in Tuesday's election, and investors spent most of the rest of the week signaling their displeasure. The election, as well as uncertainty in China and Europe, sent the Dow tumbling below 13,000 for the first time since August.
Options activity on Election Day indicated that investors were wagering heavily on the results, and that Wednesday would be a big day one way or the other. When President Obama won, it became clear that numerous investors had put their chips on Romney, as stocks expected to benefit under a Romney administration fell hard. Coal companies and big banks led the biggest slump of the year in U.S. equities markets, with both the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the Standard & Poor's 500 index falling 2.4%. The next day, they fell again, marking the worst two-day slide in more than a year.
For the week, the Dow fell 278 points, or 2.1%, to 12,815.4. It was the Dow's third losing week in a row. The S&P 500 index fell 34.4 points, or 2.4%, to 1379.9.
QE3 had seemed to set a floor under the market, but that floor has given way.
The most immediate concern for U.S. investors is the "fiscal cliff," the series of tax hikes and spending cuts that will automatically go into effect if Congress and the president can't sign a deficit deal by Jan. 1. Divided government means that the same dynamics that resulted in a virtual standstill last year could return, with the stakes even higher.
Early indications aren't promising: the president on Friday dug in his heels on a tax hike for high earners, and House Speaker John Boehner dug in his heels on no new taxes. And yet Sean West of Eurasia Group sees some room for compromise: the president, for instance, appears open to a higher income threshold for the tax hikes. "Ultimately we maintain our view that a deal before year end is the most likely outcome."
But that leaves six weeks or so of quibbling, and the market could be an unfriendly place during that period. Buy-and-hold investors will have to stiffen their resolve.
"Volatility is going to be a constant for the next few months," said Steve Wood, chief North America market strategist for Russell Investments. "From a fiscal perspective, there's a lot more in flux than not."
One caveat to that statement: Obamacare is here to stay. Stocks moved on that reality. Traditional managed-care names mostly fell on the week, and hospitals were mostly higher.
The U.S. isn't the only place where government is in transition. Investors will also have to look to China, where a new generation of leaders is poised to take over just as the country begins to show signs that its economy has bottomed. More stimulus there is likely, says Wood. But how much and how soon is still an open question.
In Europe, the Greek Parliament voted on an austerity budget, but European leaders haven't yet agreed on when to release bailout funds that they've been withholding for months.
European leaders will meet on Monday, and they're expected to discuss the Greek issue, but not make an actual decision. In fact, they're telling reporters not to expect any immediate answers—they technically have until the end of the year.
Why do today what you can put off until New Year's Eve.
THE INVESTOR CONFERENCE for the Chicago charity Invest For Kids was propitiously or, perhaps, unpropitiously timed. It came on Wednesday, the day after Wall Street's Republican Party darlings largely took the pipe, causing the stock market to swoon.
The atmosphere at the conference was palpably gloomy. The normally ebullient real-estate magnate Sam Zell was decidedly downbeat. Nothing has changed in the U.S., he averred, except that the economic head winds of stagnant growth, dollar weakness, and budgetary improvidence figure to grind on for years. Europe is a basket case, with a disintegrating currency and near-term prospect of a demographic death spiral. Even emerging markets, something he hailed at last year's conference, stink now. Growth has slowed dramatically in the Big Three—China, India, and his longtime favorite, Brazil.
Yet stocks and real-estate prices in the U.S. remain at elevated levels, leaving the self-styled Grave Dancer scratching his head. His only advice was for investors to take stabs at "out-of-the-money Black Swan situations," whatever he meant by that.
Not to be outdone, Dallas hedge-fund manager Kyle Bass, of Hayman Capital, predicted an imminent financial collapse in Japan, despite that nation's decades of low interest rates, a strong currency, and positive trade and current-account deficits. According to Bass, today's complacency and calm are merely preludes to an apocalypse of extraordinary dimension for a country that has already "crossed the Rubicon." The government and society have accumulated staggering levels of debt that can never be paid back, especially with a shrinking population and deteriorating trade balances.

JIM GRANT, former Barron's staffer and proprietor of the Interest Rate Observer, fit right in with the bearish meme by bemoaning the "seat of the pants" monetary policies of Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, which have artificially extended the three-decade regime of falling U.S. interest rates.
"Low rates are now wired into the muscle memory of markets," he said, which means, according to Grant, that the day of higher rates and inflation is fast approaching. His main recommendation was naturally gold, or as he put it with Grantian elegance, "Buy element 79 on the periodic table."
Nonetheless, all was not doom and gloom at the conference. Longtime investor activist Nelson ("I'm really a constructivist") Peltz announced that his Trian Fund had just taken a 1% position in the French company Danone BN.FR 1.0070131271354072% Danone S.A.

The company, he claimed, is a perfect 21st-century play in the global packaged-food industry, with its portfolio of products for the health-conscious consumer, including yogurt, infant and medical nutrition, and bottled water. Adding to the company's luster is the fact that over half its sales are in emerging markets, and those sales are growing smartly.
Peltz figures that the company can boost its share price by judicious cost-cutting and refraining from dilutive mergers. These measures alone could generate above-average gross margins and deliver a nice boost in the company price-to-earnings ratio on its "premier product mix."

He contends that the stock, now trading at around $25, could as much as triple over the next three to four years, despite its lackluster performance since its initial public offering in 2010, because of several catalysts. Firstly, he likes the management team assembled by the former private-equity player Dan Akerson. The company, post-bankruptcy, can now make money at a U.S. sales level of just 11 million vehicles a year, though sales should push much higher, to 15 million or more, given the age of the U.S. fleet now on the road.
Likewise, he expects the Treasury Department to soon liquidate its 500-million-share position in GM now that the election is over and the Obama administration no longer fears negative headlines. This would eliminate much of the stock overhang stifling its performance, particularly if GM uses some of its cash trove to buy back half or more of those shares. Aditionally, the company is going through a major product-redesign effort that will boost 2013 car and—more important, because of their profitability—truck sales. Look for GM to earn as much as $10 a share three years out, Brosens says.

The woman whose body was found in the passenger seat of a car that Franklin County, Tenn., authorities chased down Sunday was killed by blunt-force trauma to the head and upper body, authorities said.
Winchester, Tenn., resident Robert Troy Whipple, 47, the man charged in the slaying, killed 46-year-old Morrison, Tenn., resident Bridgette Haley without using a weapon, Franklin County Sheriff's Office spokesman Sgt. Chris Guess said.
Guess said charges related to the homicide are pending because investigators and agents with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation are still trying to establish where the slaying happened.
Haley's body was found in the passenger's seat of Whipple's 2001 Ford Taurus after he led Franklin County authorities on a 15-minute chase that ended off of Rahn Drive about 1:10 a.m. CDT on Sunday.
When Whipple fled on foot, Sgt. Milton Binkley kept pace until Whipple turned around with a hunting knife in hand and sliced at the officer, cutting Binkley's hand and right wrist, Guess said.
Binkley "bumped" Whipple into a dry creek bed where he was trapped until other officers got to the scene just east of Estill Springs.
When the officers took Whipple into custody, they found Haley's body in the car, Guess said.
TBI spokesman Josh Devine said Wednesday that little information is available.
"We're continuing to investigate the case but don't have any new details to offer at this early stage," Devine said.
Guess said investigators are doing interviews and reviewing convenience store surveillance tapes to see where Whipple went.
"It's slow developing, because there's a lot of surveillance tapes from convenience stores from multiple counties -- five different counties," he said.
Guess said that there are no other suspects so far, but that prospective witnesses are being sought out. As investigators work to establish venue for the killing they'll probably discover how Whipple and Haley wound up together, he said.
Funeral services for Haley -- a Cannon County native whose father and stepmother are from Chattanooga, are set this afternoon in Woodbury, Tenn. She had two children and worked as a store clerk at Love's Truck Stop, according to obituary information in the Cannon Courier newspaper.
Whipple, for now charged with aggravated assault, resisting arrest, evading law enforcement, possession of drug paraphernalia and possession of drugs, remains behind bars on a $1 million bond.

11. Clockless chip Technology Seminar Report pdf, ppt
Branch : ECE, CSE
Clockless chips are electronic chips that are not using clock for timing signal. They are implemented in asynchronous circuits. An asynchronous circuit is a circuit in which the parts are largely autonomous. They are not governed by a clock circuit or global clock signal, but instead need only wait for the signals that indicate completion of instructions and operations. These signals are specified by simple data transfer protocols. This digital logic design is contrasted with a synchronous circuit which operates according to clock timing signals.
The term asynchronous logic is used to describe a variety of design styles, which use different assumptions about circuit properties. These vary from the bundled delay model - which uses 'conventional' data processing elements with completion indicated by a locally generated delay model - to delay-insensitive design - where arbitrary delays through circuit elements can be accommodated. The latter style tends to yield circuits which are larger and slower than synchronous (or bundled data) implementations, but which are insensitive to layout and parametric variations and are thus "correct by design."

ANAHEIM -- The Foo Fighters put a loud and vibrant conclusion to this year's version of Blizzard's annual fanfest BlizzCon last night. World of Warcraft fans were certainly rewarded with the new "Mists of Pandaria" expansion reveal. We caught up with Lead Quest Designer Dave Kosak to give is an exclusive preview of what we can expect in the new expansion pack in this video interview after the break.
ANAHEIM -- Blizzard kicked off it's annual Blizzcon fan lovefest in sunny Southern California on Friday showing a lot of Diablo 3 as well as Starcraft 2 and World of Warcraft. We caught up with Diablo 3 Lead Technical Artist Julian Love to tell us what Blizzard was showing off at Blizzcon as well as tell us more about some of the new classes in this preview video interview after the break.
"Welcome. And congratulations. I am delighted that you could make it. Getting here wasn't easy, I know. In fact, I suspect it was a little tougher than you realize." Alright, alright, I didn't write that. That charming prose belongs to Bill Bryson's A Short History of Nearly Everything (2003). Awesome book. But in theme, these few lines apply greatly to your predicament in Rage, id Software's heavily anticipated first-person shooter for PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360.
After backwards compatibility for Playstation 2 games was cut from later releases of the PS3, many have wished desperately for a way to play the gems of the PS2 era. It seems that wish is finally being granted with five PS2 games coming to the Playstation Network, among them God Hand. To find out what else is on the way, read on.
For fans of BioWare's Mass Effect 3,the announcement of details is an event in itself, and one has been promised in next month's issue of Xbox World magazine. What might the Canadian giant have up its sleeve for one of the big games of 2011?
Hot on the heels of Tokyo Game Show 2011 are two new trailers for Final Fantasy XIII-2, one for each version of the game. Not only are there two new trailers, but several new details about the game were revealed not only at Tokyo Game Show, but in the build-up to that conference. To watch the new trailers read on.
Mention Felicia Day to any sort of geek crowd and people usually go nuts. That's because she's appeared in a number of productions over the years, including Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Eureka, and her popular MMO-comedy web series The Guild, solidifying her status as an up-and-coming superstar. Well, you can add one more piece to her resume, as Bioware has announced a new downloadable chapter for Dragon Age II that will feature her -- well, a character she plays, anyway -- as the main character.
Dragon Quest X, long since confirmed to be a Wii title, has had a couple other surprising announcements at a recent Square Enix conference. Not only will the game be the first true Online RPG in the series, but it will also have a version released for both the Wii and Wii U. Both had been rumored, but this is the first official confirmation of these facts. More details after the jump.
The growth of Black Rock Shooter is truly a marvel to watch. It started off as a piece of art by Huke of Supercell, then had a brief music video made set to some Vocaloid music. Even later, a fifty minute animated feature was built around the character, followed by a PSP game. Now NIS, the company responsible for Disgaea and a number of other quirky, bizarre RPGs, is bringing the Black Rock Shooter game stateside. Fans of the BRS franchise couldn't be happier.
Final Fantasy may be the best known and most beloved Japanese RPG series out there. It certainly seems to be the first name to come to mind when people consider the genre. There's certainly no doubt that Final Fantasy Type-0, the next Final Fantasy title to be released for the PSP, is a game many fans of the genre and the franchise are looking forward to. If you've been wondering what to expect, you're in luck because we have our hands-on impressions after getting some time with the newly available Japanese demo.
After waiting twelve years to play Persona 2: Innocent Sin, American Persona fans deserve a little something for their patience, don't you think? Atlus agrees, which is why they've just announced the soundtrack that will accompany the game should fans pre-order it. More info after the jump.
Bastion is, in a word, incredible. It takes the standard Action RPG formula and adds enough quirks and style to make it feel completely different. It shows the incredible potential of downloadable games as rich and rewarding game experiences in their own right.

Losing our sense of self and/or our sense of place in service of maintaining a relationship is one of the greatest social perils that we face. It is a reflection of the epic struggle between the authentic and inauthentic self, pitting who we are against who we believe that we should be in order to then be in the world as we see it. This state of being is nowhere more poignant, nor perilous, than in the enabling relationship.
An enabler is one who - well - enables. S/he is quick to create a context in which another person can play out his/her own script. S/he is the clean up crew, the bank, the Great Mother (or Father), the counselor, coach, confidante and priest. S/he is the unwavering refuge from the big, bad world who creates herself to be, not only ultimately dependable, but virtually indispensable to the continued behavior of the enabled.
We typically think of enablers in terms of addictive relationships, but they can be found playing out their own script most anywhere it might be lent. In truth, while apparently helping, the enabler tends to have poor boundaries, trusts too easily, has a poor sense of their own value and seeks validation through their actions. The potential suggested here leads us to consider the idea of maintaining one's sense of oneself and place in the world within the context of relationship - any relationship.

Both shale gas and conventional natural gas have a larger greenhouse gas footprint than do coal or oil, especially for the primary uses of residential and commercial heating.
Dr. Robert Howarth, a professor of ecology and environmental biology, came to this conclusion after assessing the best available data and analyzing greenhouse gas footprints for both methane (including shale gas and conventional gas) and carbon dioxide over a timescale of 20-years following emissions. The findings are published in Energy Science & Engineering.
"While emissions of carbon dioxide are less from natural gas than from coal and oil, methane emissions are far greater. Methane is such a potent greenhouse gas that these emissions make natural gas a dangerous fuel from the standpoint of global warming over the next several decades," said Dr. Howarth. "Society should wean ourselves from all fossil fuels and not rely on the myth that natural gas is an acceptable bridge fuel to a sustainable future."

Rohypnol (flunitrazepam) is a popular and easily accessible "date rape drug" in the United States. It is known by several street names: Roachies, La Roche, Rope, Rib, Roche, Rophies, Roofies, Ruffies, Mexican valium, or the "forget (me) pill." Rohypnol is especially dangerous because it is inexpensive; a tablet may cost $1 to $5. This makes it popular in high schools, college campuses, clubs, bars, and at private parties.
Rohypnol became (in)famous because it can cause memory "blackouts," periods of memory loss that follow ingestion of the drug with alcohol. Victims who have been raped with Rohypnol have reported waking up in strange rooms, with or without clothing, sometimes with a used condom on the bed, occasionally with bruises on their body...but they have no memory of the previous night.
A Common Scenario:
What Rohypnol Looks and Feels Like:
Best Safety Practices
Additional Information
Rohypnol can be found in every part of the United States, even in rural areas. The drug is most common in the southern and eastern parts of the country, where there have been several widely publicized seizures and rape cases. However, I have also seen reports in college newspapers from the Midwest and northern states, however there is no doubt that Rohypnol has found its way into the Pacific Northwest.
There have been less common reports of Rohypnol use: the tablets are crushed, often mixed with other drugs, and snorted. This route of administration is more common for recreational drug users than for rapists; OSU Public Safety only knows of one report of a woman who was held down and forcibly administered Rohypnol in this way.
There is a urine test for Rohypnol. However, the drug can only be detected for up to 72 hours after ingestion. If you or a friend think you have been raped with Rohypnol, it is important to get a urine test as soon as possible. Rape crisis centers and the police are best equipped to handle any testing.
A urine test that is performed without police intervention may be thrown out in court. This is because the legal system requires the prosecution to show "chain of custody" of the urine sample, to prove the sample came from the victim and could not have been mixed up with anyone else's urine.
Rohypnol is illegal in the United States. According to the Drug Induced Rape Prevention and Punishment Act of 1996, it is a crime to give a controlled substance to anyone, without their knowledge, with the intent of committing a violent crime (such as rape). Violation of this law is punishable by up to 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000.
There has been much talk of reclassifying Rohypnol into the same legal category as LSD (a Class I controlled substance), which would greatly increase the penalties for possession, but this has not yet happened.
Hoffmann-LaRoche has established toll-free numbers to provide information on Rohypnol and instructions for drug testing. The general information number is (800) 720-1076.
MDMA is a synthetic, psychoactive drug with both stimulant (amphetamine-like) and hallucinogenic (LSD-like) properties. Street names for MDMA include Ecstasy, Adam, XTC, hug, beans, and love drug. Its chemical structure (3-4 methylenedioxymethamphetamine, "MDMA") is similar to methamphetamine, methylenedioxyamphetamine (MDA), and mescaline - other synthetic drugs known to cause brain damage.
MDMA also is neurotoxic. In addition, in high doses it can cause a sharp increase in body temperature (malignant hyperthermia) leading to muscle breakdown and kidney and cardiovascular system failure.
Health Hazards
MDA, the parent drug of MDMA, is an amphetamine-like drug that has also been abused and is similar in chemical structure to MDMA. Research shows that MDA also destroys serotonin-producing neurons in the brain. MDMA also is related in its structure and effects to methamphetamine, which has been shown to cause degeneration of neurons containing the neurotransmitter dopamine. Damage to these neurons is the underlying cause of the motor disturbances seen in Parkinson's disease. Symptoms of this disease begin with lack of coordination and tremors and can eventually result in a form of paralysis.
Brain imaging research in humans indicates that MDMA causes injury to the brain, affecting neurons that use the chemical serotonin to communicate with other neurons. The serotonin system plays a direct role in regulating mood, aggression, sexual activity, sleep, and sensitivity to pain. Many of the risks users face with MDMA use are similar to those found with the use of cocaine and amphetamines.
Psychological difficulties, including confusion, depression, sleep problems, drug craving, severe anxiety, and paranoia - during and sometimes weeks after taking MDMA.
Physical symptoms can manifest as muscle tension, involuntary teeth clenching, nausea, blurred vision, rapid eye movement, faintness and chills or sweating.
There are special risks for people with circulatory or heart disease, these symptoms may include increases in heart rate and blood pressure.
Also, there is evidence that people who develop a rash that looks like acne after using MDMA may be risking severe side effects, including liver damage, if they continue to use the drug.
Research links MDMA use to long-term damage to those parts of the brain critical to thought and memory. One study, in primates, showed that exposure to MDMA for 4 days caused brain damage that was evident 6 to 7 years later.

The Grand Wayne Center sound system played I'm alright / don't nobody worry 'bout me as the Indiana Republican Party's state convention concluded its opening session Friday evening.
The Hoosier GOP apparently is all right, what with supermajorities in the Indiana House and Senate, six of seven statewide officeholders, including the governor, and eight of 11 federal lawmakers.
National Republican Committee Chairman Reince Priebus called it a serious state party.
Republicans are strong in other Midwestern states, Priebus observed, but what you have here is something extraordinarily special.
He spoke long before the audience heard the I'm Alright recording from 1980 by Kenny Loggins, who will perform tonight at a concert for the 1,600-plus convention delegates. But Priebus made it clear the national GOP has something to be worried about.
Democrats are better at constantly organizing, registering voters and raising money with no regard to their future candidates and messages, he said.
They're hitting us like this all over the country, Priebus said. Being obsessed with the mechanics of this party is the difference between winning and losing.
We've got to figure out how to be that party that understands we have to be a year-round party, he said, adding that the GOP is starting to do just that.
We're the party of equality, freedom and opportunity. It's the other side that has a shameful history, not us, Priebus said, applause drowning out his last words.
Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, host of a talk show on Fox News, weaved jokes and jabs at Democrats into his folksy storytelling.
Referring to President Barack Obama's trade of five Taliban prisoners for a U.S. soldier, Huckabee said he would trade five Democrats – Obama, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, presidential prospect Hillary Clinton and Attorney General Eric Holder – for a U.S. Marine arrested in Mexico.
We'd come out way ahead on that one, he said.
He accused Obama and Democrats of punishing hardworking people with higher taxes, discouraging fossil-fuel production and restricting the freedoms and rights of Americans.
What I worry about in this country, as China becomes more free, we're becoming more government-controlled, and folks, that ought to scare the daylights out of us, make us rise up and make sure that (Republicans) don't lose any more elections for a while, Huckabee said.
The convention will continue today with the adoption of a party platform and the nomination of candidates for secretary of state, auditor and treasurer.
Only the treasurer nomination is contested. All three candidates – Richmond financial adviser Don Bates, state treasurer aide Kelly Mitchell of Indianapolis and Marion Mayor Wayne Seybold – made stump speeches Friday.
As each concluded, backers among the delegates waved posters bearing the candidate's name. Not many signs went up for any of the three candidates, and the distribution of support appeared relatively equal.
Marion County has the most votes with as many as 165 delegates, followed by Allen County with 99, Hamilton County with 97, Lake County with 79 and St. Joseph County with 69.
Delegates also will nominate Secretary of State Connie Lawson of Danville and Auditor Suzanne Crouch of Evansville. Both are appointed incumbents.
At their convention last week in Indianapolis, state Democrats nominated Beth White of Indianapolis for secretary of state, Mike Claytor of Carmel for auditor and Mike Boland of Fishers for treasurer.
Other Republican speakers Friday included U.S. Sen. Dan Coats and his wife, Marsha, a GOP national committee member; Allen County Republican Chairman Steve Shine; local convention organizer Bill Bean; and state Republican Chairman Tim Berry, a Fort Wayne native.
Earlier in the day, the convention resolutions committee rejected an attempt to eliminate from the party platform a plank stating Republicans believe that strong families, based on marriage between a man and a woman, are the foundation of society.

Couple facing drug charges blaming man's teenage son for marijuana plants
Ikie Davis denied growing the marijuana in a police interview and pointed to his son as the culprit.
His fiancee, Kristen McManus, made the same allegation, but not initially. McManus first told police that Davis was growing the marijuana and was "just experimenting to see if he could even get the seeds to grow and what types of marijuana he could grow," according to an affidavit by East Kingston police Cpl. Mark Iannuccillo.
She also said that Davis was "not a drug dealer and that he was trying to grow marijuana so they could apply for a dispensary permit."
When police informed her that New Hampshire doesn't have dispensary permits, McManus stated that she "thought the governor was attempting to pass it," the affidavit said. McManus later changed her story and also blamed the marijuana operation on Davis' son.
Davis, 33, of 20 Andrews Lane, was arraigned Thursday on charges of manufacturing a controlled drug, possession of a controlled drug with intent to distribute and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
Penalties could be enhanced because the residence is less than 300 feet from the town's elementary school.
McManus, 40, also of 20 Andrews Lane, was arraigned Friday in the 10th Circuit Court in Brentwood after she was arrested and charged with criminal liability for conduct of another and three counts of endangering the welfare of a child.
McManus is accused of allowing Davis to grow the marijuana in the home she was renting. She and Davis are both accused of exposing children to the marijuana operation in the home.
The two were arrested after police searched the residence on Wednesday.
According to the affidavit, multiple marijuana plants and drug paraphernalia were seized.
At Friday's arraignment, McManus pleaded with the judge to set a low bail, saying she wasn't a flight risk, had no criminal history, and is a dental hygienist who's a single mother of two children living paycheck to paycheck.
"I have not even had a speeding ticket in my life," she said.
McManus also asked the judge to allow her to continue to have contact with Davis' son, saying she's been taking care of him for three years and is "in all essence a mother to him."
"I have no desire to harm a child or put them in any situation that is wrong. I have never abused a child or done anything to hurt a child. I love people. That's why I'm a health care provider," she told Judge Mark Weaver. Weaver set bail at $5,000 personal recognizance and $500 cash and ordered her to have no contact with Davis or his son.
She is due back in court June 7. Davis was ordered held on $5,000 cash bail.

Beeb reprieves Xmas Top of the Pops
The BBC has quite righty done a U-turn on its shock decision to can the Top of the Pops Xmas special, and viewers will now be able to enjoy Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates presenting the traditional count-down to the Yule number one. Auntie has further confirmed the pair will also front a TOTP New Year's Eve Special, featuring …
Am I the only one who is confused?
"...a threat from The X Factor's Simon Cowell to buy the rights and take the show to the opposition."
Well, that's not a very good threat then: if you let me do it, I'll buy your programme from you and give it to somebody else. Hardly a threat when it requires you to agree, is it?
A BBC Love-fest ?
With the BBC bringing out a single of Aled Jones and Terry Wogan singing "Little Drummer Boy" in December, it'll be the icing on BBC's (Xmas) cake if they get Number 1.
A good reason not to watch.
"Top of the Pops has never been bigger"
"Top of the Pops has never been bigger" - yet they're only doing two special programmes of it? Right.
"Top of the pops has never been bigger" - they were probably just talking about the amount of hype this will generate...
Ferne AND Reggie?
Ferne and Reggie, on the same show, at the same time? Christ, it must be Christmas if both of them are turning up!
They should ask Jimmy "now then now then" Saville back though, that would be better.
Yet more reason for me to lock myself away over xmas and completely ignore the tv.
I wonder what Paris will be doing on xmas day?
Oh no...
Does this mean no Christmas TOTP2??? Where will I get my Greedies fix this year!!!!
Cowell Threat
TOTP is utter shite and nobody watches it. Cowell wants to buy the rights and sell them to ITV.
So heres a plan. Sell it to Cowell for a huge sum. If ITV can't afford to pay Cowell that amount then he's out of pocket and everybody's happy. If ITV are willing to cough up then they end up with a turkey that nobody watches and no advertising revenue and the BBC are happy.
Can't see a problem with that.
Rose tints
How many of those cheering will remember Slade, Wizzard, Wham, Band Aid, Legs & Co, rubbish Radio 1 DJs covered in tinsel pratting about, but won't actually watch the current tosh that passes for chart music anyway?!!
The Charts
People would have some sort of interest in the charts if the worked the way they used to. And then people would start watching TOTP again.
These they either advertise a single for weeks in advance by getting it played on radio or alternatively you run a show like X-Factor. People order the single in advance and the sales are put on the chart on the release date of the single. You can't stop radio stations playing the single before its release. You can't ban the x-factor, although I wish they would. However you can make the charts more interesting. All you have to do is put pre orders into the chart on the date of the order not the date of the single's release.
This wouldn't make the x-factor single sell any less (unfortunately) but it would make it less likely to go to number 1 because sales would be spread out evenly over three months rather than being banged into a single week. Likewise it would make predicting number ones a lot harder.
Sadly with [tallent vacuum] Fearn Cotton
Nice to see that viewer outrage has won again, but i do agree that Dec 25th without 'The pops' would seem rather rubbish.
My only concern, why La Cotton?
Did anyone experience Children in Need?
Isn't it punishment enough for all our sins to have her on the television at all without having to endure her sub-estuary, mockney, death rattle-like drawl on a national holliday?
Parris because she wouldn't touch La Cotton with a badge pole either.
Fearne Cotton and Reggie Yates
In my opinion, it's partly presenters of the calibre of these two that were partly to blame for the death of TOTP. They should bring back forcing Radio 1 DJs (or even better 6 Music DJs) to present the show on rotation like the good ole days - nothing beats the amusement factor of having the likes of John Peel presenting the latest crap in the Top 40.
Oh Goody,
I will be away in the frozen north, so I won't be able to see Fearne bl**dy Cotton b&££$ up another show, and this other chap, who he???
Forget the top 40
Stick on some good old Christmas Pop.
It is a Top of the Pops *Christmas* Special after all!

I was in Glasgow last Saturday and you could hardly move down the main shopping streets.

Re:- price still the blocker
Here in the UK, Solar is still not achieveable.
Quite simply - until full installs cost £20,000 not £2,000 (the uk climate makes this a risky proposition, compared to sunny climates), we're really not interested.
We - as a nation - would still rather fork that amount on extensions, patios and conservatories.
A shame - I've got £2k here for anyone that can fit me a grid-linked 1kw PV system, on a east coast, south-facing Central Belt Scotland home. Some sensible prices for vertically-drilled geo-therm would be nice too...
Fixed it for you.Good point though we are being ripped of as usual £20,000 is taking the piss.

The most simple version is 0.5b. The most recent versions are a little more complex.
If you downloaded the version 0.8b and show some warnings in the module. Please download again the component and the module, because the first upload has an important bug on both extensions.
The version 0.9b only works in Joomla! 2.5.
And the bad news is that there are some bugs.
So my opinion: if this works for you the way it is, that's terrific. If not, look for something else.
It does exactly what is says.
I would rate this 4 stars becouse i hardly need a category feature in this extensions to be perfect, but once it does what it says it deservs the 5 stars.
Hermes, please make a new release with a categorization feature for the births/events then your extension will have a jump in light years.
I look forward to his future improvements. Good luck Hermes and Thank you!
I didn't know about the JoomFish extension, but I read about that, and may be in a future release this component will have support for it.
