I haven't dared look at an electrical Circuit diagram since Physics in College. I am now running in terror...
I found these trade-offs a bit hard to visualize until I drew an equivalent circuit:
which I think is correct. Avoidance of dodge and parry add like resistance in series and parallel, based on the weightings k and c. This makes sense that as dodge and parry grow large, c dominates the parallel component (ie, the dodge and parry 'cap' from gear).
Throwing it up here in case the visual of an avoidance circuit helps anyone else...

I haven't dared look at an electrical Circuit diagram since Physics in College. I am now running in terror...
That is win and awesome.
I somehow missed the post about the diminishing returns, and as a warrior I'm also trying to figure out how this affects my gearing. The thing that I've read and re-read that I don't understand is the "cap".
Class type c 1/c
Warrior Dodge 88.129021 0.011347
Warrior Parry 47.003525 0.021275
What exactly does 'c' mean? Are those hard coded maximum percents? Are they just per-rating constants for the formula? The fact that druids have a 100+ 'cap' would seem to indicate that it's not percent, and the numbers are way too low to be ratings (it would seem).
So outside of the equation, should that 'c' be evocative of anything to us? Are there hard-coded % maximums we can never achieve?
it is the percent cap on warrior dodge and warrior parry I believe.
My understanding is this:
The closer you get to the cap, the faster the returns diminish. For warriors, pallies, and DK's, the parry cap is lower so the returns diminish faster at the same avoidance. For example, you get the same "bang for your buck" (Ad/A) in rating at the following points.
10% dodge and 5% parry
15% dodge and 6.5% parry
20% dodge and 8.5% parry
So it looks like parry is much more expensive in terms of diminishing returns. So if your added avoidance from dodge is less than twice your added avoidance from parry, go for Dodge, otherwise go with parry. On top of that, parry is more expensive in terms of avoidance/rating so it makes it even more expensive.
I wonder how this is all related to defense and do misses from defense also suffer from diminishing returns?
So, in order to get the most out of the Defense stat, you also need to balance Dodge and Parry.
After reading this post i decided to do abit of math myself, mainly to find a formula that tells me how much rating i need for another % of avoidance for dodge and parry, havent come to do def yet. And use those to find out when it's worth gemming for parry instead of dodge.
Since all data already have been multiplied with 100% omnitting the % sign ill do the same.
To gain an additional % postdimished avoidance of a single attribute post diminishing returns you will need Ax amount of of that stat pre diminishing returns furfilling following equation, where A the amount of avoidance you have in that stat exceding base, as listed in the tooltip:
To convert that to rating pr avoidance post diminishing returns you only have to multiply with the base rating pr avoidance.
To better understand these formulars i have made a graph of how much rating you need to gain 1% avoidance, compared to how much you have in your tooltip (predimished).
As you can see from the graph you need quite alot of dodge for parry to be equally as good, i have decided to calculated this aswell to get the exact.
Ap is the % of additional parry in the tooltip, and Ad is the % of additional dodge. Then lets see what Add must be for both stats to return the same avoidance pr rating.
So you more then twice as much dodge plus 10 then your parry for parry gemming to be worthwhile for avoidance purposes.
P.S. I apologize for any flawed language not used to writing in english.
Sorry for being a nub, couldn't figure out how to post a graph.
If I get this right, Im afraid spreadsheets are required gear decision.
First, I rewrote the formula to this:
Ad = 1 / [ (1/c) + (k/A) ]
Both c and k are constants, the only variable is A.
In terms of survivability, the only thing that matters is the difference (∆) for Ad. The smaller the denominator the lesser avoidance you lose on the ∆ Ad.
Due to the dodge and parry caps (c) are different, these two types of avoidance do not subject to the same rate of diminishing return. Essentially speaking, due to 1/c for dodge is smaller than for parry, for the same A value, the denominator for dodge is smaller than for parry.
The only general rule that derive from this is to diversify the different types of avoidance and keep each category low to minimize diminishing return (avoid stacking a single avoidance type). While this comes pretty close to stack defense, due to the rates for diminishing return for them are different, there should be more dodge than parry (not to mention the same amount of avoidance in parry cost than dodge, please read Zephyrs post for details).
After saying all these, sorry, you still need to run a spreadsheet with your setups to make the final decision. I blame blizzard for making the math so much more complicated.
An interesting point, when A is an extremely small value, ∆ Ad is greater than A.
When A > 1.02%, A becomes greater than ∆ (parry)
When A > 1.92%, A becomes greater than ∆ (dodge)
Although practically, this makes no difference. Since you need 90 defense skills above base value to eliminate critical strikes against you; you should have A = 3.6% for every type of avoidance already.
Thank you for this post and all the information. It's certainly very useful and thorough
But in my case, my math skills are non-existent. I literally cannot do even basic math well. So when I go to add gems and enchants to upgrade my defense rating or dodge, etc. I often feel very frustrated because I have no way of knowing exactly how much + defense (for example) I will actually get when I apply the new item.
To be honest, I think this is a fault in the game that Blizzard should fix. For example, if an item reads "On equip: Adds 12 defense rating", then it should do just exactly that when it is equipped. I'm a player, this is just a game I do in my past time and I shouldn't be required to do complex calculations to figure out just how much defense (for example) I will get AFTER equipping a BOE item that I could have sold instead.
Having said that, I realize Blizzard may not do this any time soon. So I guess my real question is, is there a simple script/macro/forumla somewhere that I can simply plug numbers into? I used to have one for total avoidance and it was very, very useful before we all leveled to 80 - Just click it and I'd know what percentage I was at.
Anyway, thanks again and I appreciate anyone who might be able to help.
Indeed, the math required now when making gear decisions is daunting, and not really worth the time. Luckily, some people have started spreadsheets which do the math for us.
Tanking Spreadsheet - Elitist Jerks
Is one, and while it is not entirely updated, the vast majority of stuff is. If you are familiar with spreadsheets you can edit some things too.
Anyhow, I never used spreadsheets before but now that the value of def/dodge/parry changes based on your gear choices and gear level, it's pretty much required. Take a look, I assume the author will update it more in the future.
Formerly Xavastrasz
Thanks Zephyr for the calculation. One thing I think you may want to clarify in your text though is that Ad and Ap need to be the undiminished avoidance from the dodge and parry tooltips PLUS the undiminished dodge and parry % you get from the defense tooltip, right? For instance, at exactly uncrittable, your additional defense gives you 5% pre-diminishing returns to dodge, parry and miss. Assuming no additional defense or parry on gear, how much dodge rating would you have to stack to reach parity per rating point with parry? Using your formula, you'd need about 20% additional undiminished dodge. You have 5% from your defense, so 15% undiminished dodge. 39.34799 dodge rating per percent undiminished, we get ~590 dodge rating. Any additional parry or defense you have is just going to make this number go up, so the rule of thumb should be: Until you are at 590 dodge rating, point for point dodge is better. Gem for dodge. Once we get that high we can revisit the calculation.
It used to be that avoidance had increasing returns, e.g. adding 12 Dodge Rating when you were at 80% avoidance reduced a lot more incoming damage than adding 12 Dodge Rating when you were at 60% avoidance. Is this change meant to offset that (to keep avoidance tanks from stacking too much)?
yes that is the intention Kerg, whether it is exactly the same as Armor in terms of TTL? I dunno, but it's supposed to be linear somewhat.
I might suggest Rating Buster for anyone who looks at math and runs for a cootie shot. It should help with some of your woes, though perhaps not as effective as having a pet Satrina or a spreadsheet.
Is Rune of Swordshattering - Spell - World of Warcraft affected by diminishing returns? And is the parry DK's get from strenght affected by it?
I'll use dodge rating as an example:
TTL (dr=0) = 1 (obviously)
TTL (dr=1) = 1.00026583 or 0.02658% increase
TTL (dr=999) = 1.256401494
TTL (dr=1000) = 1.25664929 or 0.02478% increase
So while diminishing returns on TTL exist, you will have a hard time to notice them.
First let me say this helped me figure things out quite a considerable amount, thank you.
My trouble however lies when I attempted to run your calculations myself, I'll admit that it could be a mistake with my maths but I rechecked it as best I can with identical results or perhaps I've mistaken some of the explanation.
My Paladin, 80th level has 699 def rating, 127 dodge rating and 22 agility from gear. These being the stats used in the calculations of dodge chance.
According to your information this results in 13.79% dodge after diminishing returns, the trouble lies in that according to my in-game character screen I have 18.73% dodge (before diminishing returns).
Now I know that 5% of that is from the Anticipation talent, but how is my in-game before diminishing returns statistic lower than the result of calculating it using your notes?
Surely it should be the other way around?
no, this was discussed that at lower levels of avoidance, DR actually gives you MORE per rating than before, it's kind of a weird anomaly.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. -It was a foregone conclusion who would win the 2013 bid to publish legal notices when Mesa County Public Trustee Mike Moran opened the sealed envelope Dec. 28.Although both the Fruita Times and the Palisade Tribune carried the lucrative foreclosure notices last year, neither paper bid for this year's contract.That's because Bob Sweeney, former publisher of the two paid weeklies, no longer owns the papers."The Daily Sentinel group purchased the papers from me," said Sweeney, who also owns Village Publishing in Greenwood Village. "We didn't bid because we don't own the papers anymore."Grand Junction Media Inc., owners of the Daily Sentinel and The Nickel, purchased the Times and Tribune last week for an undisclosed amount, the Sentinel reported in a Thursday news story.The Sentinel's bid of $560 per five weeks of consecutive publication is twice that paid last year to the Palisade and Fruita papers for publishing the legal notices, Moran said. It's also more than the Sentinel was charging before the Fruita and Palisade papers took over publishing the legal notices in 2011, he said."It seems like a high rate, but it's what we're forced to pay them (as they're the only bid)," Moran said.Sentinel Publisher Jay Seaton shed some light on the purchase of the Times and Tribune in an email to the Free Press Thursday."We did not acquire these papers solely for the private legals. We had been in off-and-on negotiations with Bob Sweeney for these papers for a couple of years. The timing of the closing was, however, driven by the deadline on the invitation for bids from the public trustee."Former public trustee Paul Brown stopped publishing the legal notices in the Sentinel after a dispute regarding errors and the formatting of the notices. Brown wanted the Sentinel to scan electronically and publish the information as he sent it to them - a process that would have cost the newspaper more space, but would be more readable than the traditional, dense, single-column format, Moran said.Moran said his office paid the Sentinel $514,132 in 2010, before Brown started publishing the notices in the Fruita and Palisade newspapers. The Daily Sentinel continued to publish some notices in 2012 when a couple of lenders requested publication in that paper, Moran said. Unless specified, legal notices are published in the default publication.In comparison, the trustee's office paid The Fruita Times and Palisade Tribune publisher $297,000 in 2012.Both the Times and Tribune published the notices as Brown had requested, with more white space."Our office felt that more people actually read the notices in that format," Moran said. "It's easier to read."
This year's bidders were required to have a "quality control procedure" in place to ensure accuracy in the legal notices, Moran said."Brown had a legitimate complaint," regarding errors, and there's now a process where the legal notices will be proofread internally at the newspaper, Moran said. The Public Trustee office is not taxpayer-funded. Instead, it receives fees primarily from lenders for performing specific tasks. Plus, banks reimburse the office for its publishing expenses. In less populated areas where there are fewer foreclosures, the county treasurer also serves as public trustee. For example, in 2011, Jackson County had three foreclosures and Baca County had seven, compared to the more than 3,000 foreclosures in Denver and 1,217 in Mesa County during that same time period."One of the issues in the press last year was whether the public trustee office should be independent any longer," Moran said. "But according to state statute, if you're above a certain population you should have an independent office" to handle the greater number of foreclosures and other legal notices.

Alex Beall, special to wtop.com
WASHINGTON - DJs and bartenders will soon mix it up at the 9:30 Club. But this time, it's not just for the venue's regular concert go-ers; it's to raise money for D.C. Central Kitchen.
Unlike other area fundraisers, Sound Bites features food from 25 District restaurants, live entertainment from seven local bands and a mixology competition between four 14th Street, N.W. bars -- all in a block party setting.
"We call it D.C.'s best block party," says Paul Day, communications manager for D.C. Central Kitchen. "We're always a little edgy, so we decided to venture and build this relationship with the 9:30 Club to bring a music festival to the 9:30 Club. So we're reaching a younger crowd that is interested in food but also likes the music and some of the other show components."
D.C. Central Kitchen is an organization that distributes 5,000 balanced meals a day to homeless shelters and nonprofits in the area. It assembles the meals using leftover food from local restaurants and farms.
"Food recycling is really just a matter of waste is wrong -- that's our philosophy -- and just taking that food and turning it into something that's very good and healthy for our clients," Day says.
Other programs at D.C. Central Kitchen include culinary job training, providing meals for public schools and the healthy corner store program, which brings fresh produce to areas that do not have access to grocery stores.
"We use food as a tool for community empowerment," Day says.
Sound Bites raises money via the event's sponsorships and from selling tickets priced at $40. The proceeds support all of the organization's programs, specifically the 14-week culinary training program that provides chronically unemployed people with "knife skills and life skills," as well as help finding a job. The culinary students can also assist and network with the participating chefs at Sound Bites.
The event, originally created by D.C. Central Kitchen's former development CEO Brian MacNair, aimed to gain support for the organization among younger Washingtonians through food and music.
Day expects this year's event to be the biggest Sound Bites yet, raising more money and drawing more attendees than past years. Around 1,000 people are expected to attend.
"Our experience with (Capital) Food Fight was that the first couple years it was small, but then it just blows up as people start seeing just how exciting and really cool it is," Day says.
The 9:30 Club in the U Street, N.W. neighborhood is a longtime supporter of D.C. Central Kitchen, says Seth Hurwitz, co-owner of the 9:30 Club and old friend of D.C. Central Kitchen founder Robert Egger. The club wanted to host Sound Bites as a charity event for a different group of people.
"Sound Bites is a good way to make our fans, the 9:30 Club fans, realize what D.C. Central Kitchen is and does for people," he says.
"It's a way to come and check out great music, great food and show people that food events and charities such as D.C. Central Kitchen are not just the domain of the Washington society types," he continues. "It's for regular people that live here and it's something we can all participate in and help out in. It does sort of strip away the pomp and circumstance of food events and charity events."
The 9:30 Club hosts the event for free and books the local musicians.
During the bar battle, bartenders from the 14th Street bars -- Black Jack, Bar Pilar, The Gibson and Birch & Barley -- will create a cocktail from a secret ingredient. Mixology experts will judge the competition.
E. Jay Apaga, bar manager at Black Jack and Pearl Dive Oyster Palace, will represent Black Restaurant Group in the mixology competition.
"It's a chance to showcase my talents and a chance to really have some fun and bring part of this community into D.C. Central Kitchen that probably wouldn't know anything about it," he says.
After participating in the restaurant portion last year, Black Restaurant Group owner and chef Jeff Black registered the group for the food tasting and mixology battle this year. Black will return with Pearl Dive Oyster Palace, serving a blue crab and gulf shrimp Campechana, a seafood cocktail.
Bar Pilar, another returning restaurant participant, will be involved in the bar battle and restaurant component as well. Bar manager Jonathan Fain will be mixing the drinks, while sous-chef Oscar Cruz will offer marlin ceviche to the food tasting.
Sara Thomson, the assistant general manager and events coordinator at Bar Pilar, sees this as a time for the 14th Street block to work together.
"We really like to come together for things that support the neighborhood and the District as a whole," she says. "This industry is really a big family. It's always nice to see your fellow restaurants at the table next to you and be able to sample their food and see what's coming out and what's new."
The food tasting will feature local restaurants, many of which already support D.C. Central Kitchen. They send chefs to perform cooking demonstrations and help with the culinary training program.
Gordon Biersch Brewery, a first time participant, began its relationship with D.C. Central Kitchen after the organization attended the opening events for the restaurant's Navy Yard location in April.
Gordon Biersch has its own foundation, Craftworks, which supports its restaurants in helping fight hunger in their communities. D.C. Central Kitchen gives the F Street, N.W. location a way to get involved.
"It's our way of giving back to the community, but not just giving money," says Lori Scott, sales and marketing manager for Gordon Biersch Brewery Restaurant group. "It stands for much more than that."
"We're a restaurant; we're based on feeding people. Our staff is all local and they are family to us, and knowing that to [D.C. Central Kitchen] also, the people they reach out to -- they consider them family as well. It fits perfectly for what we do and what we believe in."
Gordon Biersch will serve pulled pork sliders with barbeque sauce made from its own brewed beer.
Musical guests, including Lee Fields and the Expressions as the headliners, DJ Will Eastman and Batala, will accompany the food tasting and bar battle.
Sound Bites will take place on May 19 at 1 p.m.

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- There's plenty of meat and cheese on the menu for lawmakers attending a Taste of Maryland Agriculture event in Annapolis.
The offerings Thursday include donations from three cheesemakers, three lamb farms, two producers of pork products and one beef farm.
The Maryland Agriculture Council says there are apples from Frederick County and eggs from Westminster. But the only vegetables on the menu are marinated mushrooms from Cecil County.
The beverages include milk, apple cider and a variety of wines from the Maryland Wineries Association.

NCLB Update (http://www.nochildleftbehind.gov/)
This morning, in a Washington Post op-ed, Secretary Paige urged the nation to focus on children. For more information, please go to http://www.ed.gov/news/opeds/edit/2004/02272004.html.
On February 19, Secretary Paige announced two new policies that will give states and school districts greater flexibility in helping students with limited English proficiency under the No Child Left Behind Act. "Although we classify these students as 'limited' for the purpose of monitoring their progress," the Secretary said, "I really don't like that phrase. They should in no way be thought of as 'limited.' Rather, at a time when most Americans speak only one language, these 'English Language Learners' (ELL) have the opportunity to achieve early fluency in both English and their native tongue." First, during an ELL student's initial year in U.S. public schools, schools may choose to substitute an assessment of English language proficiency for the assessment of reading competency. This test does not count toward Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) goals for the school, but it does count toward the 95 percent participation rate for the subgroup. In other words, the policy allows schools one more year to prepare ELL students to learn in English. (All students must still be tested in mathematics.) Second, schools may continue to count ELL students toward AYP for two additional years after they have become English proficient. This policy rewards schools that are constantly absorbing and educating new ELL students. Previously, once students were no longer considered learning English, they were no longer eligible for their accountability subgroup. Both of the policies must go through a formal process to become officials regulations. However, the Secretary is using his "transitional authority" to implement the policies immediately. For more information, please go to http://www.ed.gov/news/pressreleases/2004/02/02192004.html.
In a recent letter to Democratic members of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, Secretary Paige detailed the notable progress made since No Child Left Behind was enacted. In particular, the Secretary emphasized "technical assistance and outreach efforts have expanded. At all levelsfrom senior leadership to staff-level expertsthe Department is communicating on a daily basis with states, districts, and schools." For example:
- Since the bill's passage, 29 guidance documents on NCLB programs have been issued. The agency has also sent almost 20 letters on NCLB implementation issues to governors, Chief State School Officers, and other state officials.
- The Department has recruited and trained 50 teachers, principals, district officials, higher education representatives, and national policy experts to serve as members of the Teacher Assistance Corps (TAC). By the close of February, TAC will have visited 49 states.
- The Office of Elementary and Secondary Education has held conference calls and meetings with state Title I directors, initiated a new program of conference calls with local Title I directors, hosted eight national conferences, and sent 500 letters to various state and local offices.
State Fact Sheets
What does the President's Fiscal Year 2005 budget request for education mean for your state? The one-pagers at http://www.ed.gov/about/overview/budget/statefactsheets/ provide official estimates as of February 14, including Title I, special education, Pell Grants, Reading First, choice/options, teacher quality, annual assessments, educational research, and English language acquisition.
Meanwhile, it is important to remember that, historically, budgetary increases have not produced proportional gains on the nation's report card, the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP), either in overall student achievement or in the significant narrowing of the achievement gap between students of different races, ethnicities, and socioeconomic backgrounds. NAEP state profileswith 2003 resultsare available at http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/states/. (Achievement gap data can be found within the PDF files at the end of each profile, under the "Related Material" header.)
Computer-Based Products
In an effort to determine the effectiveness of educational technology for core learning, the Department is financing a study of 16 computer-based reading and math products. The products, from 12 different companies, were developed to enhance the learning of reading in first- and fourth-grade and math in sixth- (pre-algebra) and ninth-grade (algebra). All had some prior evidence of effectiveness in raising student achievement. Teachers at 120 schools in 40 districts will be trained to utilize the interventions over the summer. At the end of the 2004-05 academic year, student achievement growth will be assessed. Mathematica Policy Research and SRI International will conduct the study using a random-assignment study design. For more information, please go to http://www.ed.gov/news/pressreleases/2004/02/02132004.html.
FREE Resources
The Federal Resources for Educational Excellence (FREE) web site makes it easy to find learning resources from some 50 federal organizations. Whether you are looking for teaching ideas and learning activities or primary documents like audio recordings, maps, paintings, and photos, FREE offers one-stop access to items created by the Library of Congress, NASA, and the Smithsonian Institution, to name a few. And, every week day, a new resource is featured. Indeed, in recognition of President's Day (on February 16), FREE promoted: a look at the job of the president and the ways presidents have communicated with the public; artifacts associated with the presidents, such as the sword of George Washington, the lap desk on which Thomas Jefferson penned the Declaration of Independence, and the top hat worn by Abraham Lincoln the night he was assassinated; writings and records associated with George Washingtonincluding his letters, diaries, financial accounts, military records, and other writings; important documents concerning the Abraham Lincoln presidencyincluding the Emancipation Proclamation, his second inaugural address, and more than 70,000 images and transcriptions of letters, speeches, and other writings; and more than 150 portraits depicting every American president and most first ladies. For more information, please go to http://www.ed.gov/free/.
Also: The Gateway to Educational Materials (GEM) web site, http://thegateway.org/, is a database of more than 24,000 high quality lesson plans, curriculum units, and other resources across more than 400 web sites.
Postsecondary Histories
"Principal Indicators of Student Academic Histories in Postsecondary Education, 1972-2000," from the Institute of Education Sciences, is a descriptive account of the major features of the postsecondary academic experience and success of traditional-age students over the last three decades. To provide this account, the report draws on three grade-cohort longitudinal studies (from 1972, 1980, and 1988), and, within the studies, high school and college transcript records. Tables cover topics of geographic mobility, access and degree of participation, attainment (degrees, credits, time-to-degree, etc.), attendance patterns, majors, curriculum clusters, grades, and remediation. The findings raise some questions about reports that suggest dropout rates, grade inflation, and remedial coursework are on the rise. For more information, please go to http://www.ed.gov/rschstat/research/pubs/prinindicat/.
Character Education
The Department's Office of Safe and Drug-Free Schools has unveiled a web site for the Character Education and Civic Engagement Technical Assistance Center (CETAC). CETAC's objective is to furnish technical assistance for implementing effective character education and civic engagement to the agency's Partnerships in Character Education Program grantees, as well as serve as a resource for educators, parents, and the community at large. CETAC also contains information on news, events, and publications that may be of interest to the field. In the last two years, the Department has awarded 47 grants to state and local school districts to implement character education. For more information, please go to http://www.cetac.org/.
Quote to Note
"The No Child Left Behind Act transformed the federal government's role in education, moving it, in a musical sense, from second chair status in the orchestra to the conductor's podium. The government is now almost literally in the position of setting the stage for all the other players. The conductor can call in the string section (highly qualified teachers), cue the wind section (supplementary service providers), maintain the drama through the percussionists (adequate yearly progress), and conclude with a stunning finish that brings everyone to their feet (accountability)."
Christopher T. Cross
Upcoming Events
The Department's next "Education News Parents Can Use" broadcast, regarding math and science, is scheduled for March 16. For more information, please go to http://registerevent.ed.gov/downlink/event-flyer.asp?intEventID=174.
The fourth annual Education Industry Day (March 30-31, Washington, D.C.), featuring the Department's own Nina Rees, will focus on supplemental service implementation, public-private partnerships, and higher education reauthorization issues. For more information, please go to http://www.educationindustry.org/.
April 4-7, ASPIRA will be hosting its sixth-annual Latino Education Conference in Atlantic City, New Jersey. This year's theme is "The Latino School Dropout Dilemma." For more information, please go to http://www.latinoedconference.org/.

Get Free From Wall Street: An Interview With David Korten
David Korten's 1995 bestseller, When Corporations Rule the World, was a key document in building the anti-globalization movement. In the aftermath of the 2008 economic meltdown, he wrote Agenda for a New Economy, a critique of the overwhelming influence of Wall Street on economic policy, which has resulted in a political system that serves, not the many, but the very wealthy few. Eighteen months later, Korten is back with a much-expanded second edition of Agenda in which he details a strategy for taking back our political and economic systems and using them to create localized, community-controlled economies that foster the things we really need. I had a conversation with David at the YES! offices.
Doug: I'd like to talk with you about the new edition of Agenda for a New Economy, and your thoughts on the current state of the U.S. economy. The first edition came out just a bit more than a year ago. Why a second edition so soon?
David: Well, the first edition was written in immediate response to the crash. I was very taken by the fact that the crash opened up the potential for discussion of some really deep but neglected issues. To my dismay that wasn't happening. The political system jumped in immediately to try to fix Wall Street—to get it back to its normal function—which seemed to me the totally wrong agenda.
The book was written and published within the space of two months, which meant that I was building it around things that I had already had in place.
Doug: Quite an accomplishment. So what's different in the new edition?
David: The second edition goes so far beyond the first that many people ask me, "Well why do you call it a second edition rather than a new book?" It has 100 additional pages, a much stronger framework, and a much more comprehensive and systemic, holistic agenda. I'm very excited about how it came out.
Doug: What do you see as the principal routes in to the kind of systemic change you're talking about—especially the ones that go more to public participation than top-down organization?
David: Well, in fact, most of the change has to be bottom-up. Because—going back to my larger frame in The Great Turning: From Empire to Earth Community—if you understand the organization of society in terms of dominator systems, the impetus for change rarely, if ever, comes from within the system. Even changes in the laws depend very much on popular mobilization and demands on the political system.
One of the things that is much clearer in the new edition is the framework for a strategy of change, which, as I've come to see it more clearly, has three essential elements.
Read an excerpt from Agenda
for a New Economy
The first is changing the stories in the cultures. Much of the work here can be done on a very individual level, in terms of organizing conversations in your neighborhood or your church or your library, whatever groups you're connected to. Engaging people in conversation around the reality of the economy that we have, the ways in which we're trapped in fabricated cultural stories, and the possibilities of a new economy. That's part of changing the economic story that frames the policy debates.
The second element is creating the new reality. It is about shopping locally, supporting local products, local farmers, supporting the various initiatives around rebuilding local food systems and local economies.
And the third is engaging politically to enact real policy changes that support the new economy over the old economy.
Doug: In the United States, it's an article of faith that we depend on Wall Street for economic well-being. You suggest that Wall Street is actually the cause of many of the problems on Main Street. How are people reacting to that challenge to such a widespread belief?
David: Well, it's a very interesting tension, because at one level, people have seen so clearly the corruption of Wall Street: the greed, the meanness, the predatory ethics and practices. So there is enormous outrage against Wall Street that cuts across the political spectrum.
On the other hand, we have been lured into a situation where many of us depend for our retirement on Wall Street investments, which is really a euphemism for Wall Street speculation. Since our expectations of income cannot be met by Social Security alone, we look to these financial funds as the real basis of our retirement security. So that creates an enormous political constituency in favor of Wall Street. The tension is very real and very powerful.
Doug: What needs to happen to resolve the tension between outrage and dependency?
David: The interesting part of this and the key to understanding it is recognizing the distinction between real wealth and what I call "phantom wealth." Phantom wealth is money that is created from nothing, unrelated to making anything of real value. The Wall Street game is about generating financial claims on the real wealth of society, while doing nothing to contribute to the pool of real wealth—food, shelter, entertainment, transportation, education, health care—on which those claims are made.
Doug: Why is this distinction hard for people to make?
David: Our whole language about money is so convoluted that it's almost like the language was designed to prevent us from seeing the reality. When a person uses terms like "assets," "wealth," "capital," "resources," there is absolutely no way you can tell whether they're talking about money, which is simply accounting entries, or about real things that those accounting entries are claims against.
If you add up all the financial assets in the world, they exceed the market value of all the world's real wealth, which means those claims can never be fully actualized.
Over the long term, the system has to collapse, as it did. Since we are pumping it back up, it will inevitably keep collapsing until we fundamentally restructure it.
That means, we rely on support from our readers.

Alumni's Kilwin's Shop Observes First Anniversary @ The Greene
Three Generations of Family Members Working at Sweet Shop
September 12, 2013
Terry Hoggatt selects delectable chocolates known as "tuttles" (a.k.a. Turtles) from the counter at her Kilwin's franchise at The Greene in Beavercreek.
Terry Mahlerwein Hoggatt '83 is amazed at the number of times customers comment, "You place smells like my vacation."
Science has determined that humans' sense of smell is thousands of times more sensitive than any other of our senses and the brain's recognition of smell is immediate.
So, it's no wonder that numerous persons have made the connection between Kilwin's chocolate and ice cream shop at The Greene shopping mall in Beavercreek and the nearly 80 sites at which the franchise is located at a resort or in a vacation town.
It's also no wonder that Terry Hoggatt's husband, Mike Hoggatt '82, aims the business' exhaust fans toward the sidewalk and street, where the sweet smell of confections wafts through the upscale shopping center, enticing olfactory-induced memories of vacations past and recruiting new fans of Kilwin's 36 flavors of ice cream, fine chocolates and the Hoggatts' homemade Mackinac Island-style fudge and caramel treats.
Vacations are the stuff of memories and Kilwin's is in the business of helping customers create new memories through the shared experience of enjoying sweet treats.
Consider the mother that brought in her three children to celebrate their successful swim tests with ice cream, the love-struck young man that traveled many miles to purchase a caramel apple for his girlfriend and the couple that held their engagement party surrounded by waffle cones, truffles, orange peel chocolates and floats, shakes and sodas.
(LEFT) Three generations of the family work at Kilwin's, including, from the left, Delmar Mahlerwein and Brent, Terry and Mike Hoggatt.
"It's a fun place to be," Terry Hoggatt said.
While they opened their shop at The Greene September 14, 2012, Kilwin's has been, as the company proclaims, "a celebrated part of Americana" for seven decades. It was established in Petoskey, Mich., in 1947. Kilwin's initially became popular in many of Michigan's summer vacation towns on the Great Lakes and expanded into a booming business throughout Florida. Today, stores can be found — and the sweet tooth of many sated — from Colorado to New Hampshire.
Kilwin's at The Greene is Ohio's first.
While Mike Hoggatt is employed fulltime with Toyota in Kentucky, Terry Hoggatt and her father, Delmar Mahlerwein '58, were considering a joint business venture when Kilwin's came into the picture.
The mother of five sons, she taught preschool for a number of years and was "looking for something different."
Delmar retired from a career in public education in 1988 and spent 11 years as superintendent of the Nike Center in Wilmington. Delmar went on to run a Payday Loans business for seven years but, now retired, he "got bored staying home."
They have relatives in Petoskey that introduced them to Kilwin's. Mahlerwein was impressed with its business model but attempts to find a traditional resort location in southwest Ohio proved problematic when faced with no-competition clauses, lease prices and driving distances from their homes in Wilmington.
"People said, 'We can get Kilwin's on vacation but can't when we get home,'" Terry Hoggatt said, adding that considering The Greene for the store location soon became an appealing prospect.
They conducted traffic surveys at the popular mall and, when considering the upscale nature of the massive shopping complex and the large number of nearby restaurants (think dessert), Kilwin's franchising management also saw great potential in them locating there.
"We realize we have to make it on the service we give and the quality of our product," Mahlerwein said, noting it's one thing to sell ice cream at a Kilwin's in a vacation town all summer and another to do so year-round in Beavercreek, Ohio.
Making good first impressions and gaining repeat customers are essential to success in food service.
They offer complimentary tastes of fudge and ice cream to those entering the store — all wrapped in greeters' sincere smiles, views of employees making specialty treats, brightly colored furnishings and, oh yes, that tempting aroma enticing the customer to splurge on all things chocolate and sugar.
In addition to in-store sales to shoppers, Kilwin's caters birthday, graduation and engagement parties, as well as producing party trays, corporate gifts and wedding favors (they monogrammed 150 S-Mores).
Terry Hoggatt runs the day-to-day operation and employs 14 mostly part-time workers, including some of their sons.
"My dad's good for about two hours in a supervisory capacity," Terry Hoggatt added, noting that, often, three generations of her family are working together. "It's Dad's dream — he's always wanted to own a shop, and he loves chocolate!"
(LEFT) Mike Hoggatt offers samples from their 36 flavors of ice cream.
Mahlerwein admitted, "Terry and Mike do most of the work. I'm mainly a go-for."
Mike Hoggatt often shows up in the evening and weekends.
"It's a lot of fun for me, especially on Saturday when we can work together," he said. "For me, it's play. The candy business is fun business."
Surrounded by chocolate and ice cream, Mike Hoggatt shared the "real treat" for him is the stories customers share, whether it's about vacations involving Kilwin's, the childhood memories of ice cream on family outings, or even the confectionary challenges faced in their kitchens.
"A lady came in and told her story about making fudge at Christmas. It wouldn't set up," Mike Hoggatt said, noting the story emanated from her being mesmerized at the sight of a tray of perfect fudge in their display case. "They ate it anyway and, that Christmas, they had chocolate soup.
"For us, the best part is the people — they're so fascinating."
The "people" have made Salted Caramel their top selling ice cream. Another popular flavor is Cinnamon Crumb Cake, "the ice cream you can eat for breakfast," Terry Hoggatt joked.
They declared Kilwin's initial year a success and especially enjoyed the recent, late arriving, 90-plus temperatures— prime time ice cream season.
"We have the same people come in week after week," Terry Hoggatt said about their success at developing a loyal clientele. "Also, a lot of people just wander into the shop. Many of them have been on vacation in Florida or Michigan and recognize the store name. People walk and say, 'It smells like vacation.'"
That's music to their ears.
NOTE: Mike Hoggatt and Terry Mahlerwein met in high school in Blanchester and both enrolled at Wilmington College, where he majored in industrial supervision and she in education. He was the first student in the College's co-op program at Cincinnati Milicron. Her great uncle was WC's 15th president, Robert Lucas. Mike and Terry Hoggatt are members of WC's classes of 1982 and '83, respectively.
"When visiting the College as a high school student, it impressed me that people looked you in the eye and said 'hello,'" she said.
"Being from a small town, Wilmington College's diversity was an eye-opener," Mike Hoggatt said, noting that his circle of friends included African-Americans and a student from the Middle East. "Wilmington College for me was the first time when you could hear the other side of issues — that was important for me, especially because it planted seeds for later in life."

Once again in 2013, fans will have a voice in which former player, coach or manager is selected to the Phillies Wall of Fame this year. Voting is underway and ends at 5 p.m. ET on Wednesday, March 20, 2013. Last year's honoree, Mike Lieberthal, became the 34th inductee into the Wall of Fame.
Fans can select their top three choices from a 12-man ballot of Phillies alumni. A first place vote is worth five points, second place three points and third place one point. The top five fan consensus choices as determined by total points will serve as the official ballot for a special Wall of Fame Selection Committee that will choose this year's inductee.
Induction ceremonies at Citizens Bank Park are set for August 2, prior to the 7:05 p.m. game against the Braves. A 14"x20" cast bronze plaque will be added to the Toyota Wall of Fame display located in the Memory Lane section of Ashburn Alley. The following day, August 3, is Phillies Alumni Night in which former players living in the tri-state area will be introduced pre-game.
Players with five or more years of service are eligible. Managers and coaches need four or more years of service. All candidates must be retired for three years before they can be eligible for the 12-man ballot. In addition to a player's statistical record, consideration is given to longevity, ability, contributions to the Phillies and baseball, character, plus special achievements.

USAID helps farmers improve the productivity of their crops

USAID works in Zambian schools to increase literacy and reduce malaria.
About Zambia
Although Zambia has experienced 12 straight years of impressive economic growth and its average income of $1,460 makes it a lower-middle-income country, that growth has not benefited the two-thirds of Zambians who live in poverty. Reflecting considerable U.S. Government investment over time in one of the countries most affected by HIV/AIDS, some social indicators have improved, with life expectancy at birth now at 52 years (up from 39) and maternal mortality at 591 per 100,000 live births (down from 729). Zambia's challenge is to promote broad-based, pro-poor economic growth, create employment and develop its human capital. Accordingly, USAID's assistance concentrates on increasing agriculture-led economic growth to reduce rural poverty and food insecurity; improving the health of Zambians; reducing the incidence and impact of HIV/AIDS; raising the quality of basic education; and enhancing democratic governance.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. - To better serve a growing community, the City of Grand Junction is taking baby steps toward building a brand-new fire station in the Pear Park area (located east of Grand Junction, south of Clifton and north of D Road).
At last week's council meeting, city staffers were given the green light to apply for a $200,000 grant from the Colorado Department of Local Affairs' Energy and Mineral Impact Assistance Program. The grant would partially fund Pear Park Fire Station's design and engineering needs.
"The need is based on studies the fire department has done, including response times," City of GJ spokeswoman Sam Rainguet said. "It's one of the areas in need. The patch between the city and Clifton is one of the fastest growing areas of the city. There's been lots of construction over there in the last five to eight years."
Before design and engineering work can take place, however, the city needs to buy a piece of land.
"We have staff looking and they have identified a few locations, but nothing has been zeroed in on quite yet," Rainguet noted. "Once land is purchased, the process of doing the design work for that particular piece of land would be the next step. The design work is in this year's budget."
The Pear Park area "is bounded by 28 road, 32 road, I-70B and the river," Rainguet added.
