As EIF/WCRF co-founder Jamie Tisch put it: "Tonight is bare bones. I'm more interested in making money than spending money." Tisch's version of "bare bones" still included a dinner of filet mignon with black truffle sauce, but she had to cut back on nonessentials, such as a live band for background music. Still, honorary chair and emcee Tom Hanks kept the evening flowing by cracking jokes ("My wife is spending the evening with another man — our 12-year-old son"), and Natalie Cole, Morgan Freeman, William H. Macy and Felicity Huffman were on hand to present awards to Hilary Swank, Gela Nash-Taylor and Pamela Skaist-Levy and Charlotte Otto. "Please don't judge us, we're not actresses, we're mogulettes," the Juicy girls said after their acceptance speech.
Fittingly, at evening's end, Tisch, Kelly Chapman Meyer and social MVP Angie Harmon jumped up to dance to Mary J. Blige's performance of "No More Drama."
Elsewhere in town, starlets including Maggie Grace and Lydia Hearst hobnobbed among glittering de Grisogono jewels and red-carpet-ready Vera Wang frocks at the Sunset Tower hotel for W's Hollywood Affair. But ever the social butterfly, Hearst already had her mind on the next evening's activity, a dominos tournament at the Beverly Hills Hotel. "I don't know how to play," she admitted, "so we are going to get a massive tutorial."
Back in New York, recent East Coast transplant Zoe Kravitz joined Chiara Clemente and Padma Lakshmi at Stephan Weiss Studio to toast the Milk Gallery exhibit of Buddhist art, "The Vision and Art of Shinjo Ito," alongside host Robert Thurman (Uma's dad). They also welcomed Ito's daughter, Shinso Ito, the spiritual head of the lineage of Buddhism he started, Shinnyo-en. And, though Donna Karan herself was on the slopes of Sun Valley, Idaho, her design team transformed the area into Zen luxe, complete with white fur throws. "I feel like I'm in Japan," said Coralie Charriol Paul as sake was poured and bowls of black cod, soba noodles and hijiki were passed. But even the best party planner couldn't have wrangled the evening's highlight: the lunar eclipse, which guests watched from the outdoor deck.

kbs+, SiblingRivalry Drench Model in Gold Paint to Sell Jay Z's New Cologne
What happens when the self-importance of a major celebrity combines with the inherent ridiculousness of a cologne ad? For the answer, just watch agency KSB+P and production company Sibling Rivalry's spot for Jay Z's new cologne — excuse me, fragrance for men — Gold Jay Z.
"This is Jay Z's signature fragrance, so we wanted to capture the power and style of the man but also the sensuality of the fragrance at the same time," explains kbs+ co-CCO Izzy DeBellis, presumably with a straight face. "We needed to find the right balance of personality and product to make it all work, since it's easy for anything associated with him to be dominated by the mere mention of Jay Z's name."
Apparently it's impossible to talk about a "fragrance" without sounding completely pompous. Entirely too self-serious SiblingRivalry creative director Joe Wright says, "The agency and client were as excited as we to produce something that is part art film, part brand launch. It gave us plenty of room to experiment."
So what is this "art film" promoting Jay Z's new fragrance? Well, it's basically gold paint being dumped on model Heidy De La Rosa, while she holds long poses, interspersed with shots of the blinged-out cologne bottle designed by Jacob The Jeweler. Not exactly experimental. Of course they didn't just dump gold paint on the model: "a specialty rig altered the lighting, which responded to the glittery liquid, and appears to morph in density and luminosity as it covers De La Rosa." So there's that. The 30-second spot was supposedly edited to "reflect the art of the music video," but, to me at least, it just looks like another perfume ad. Credits after the jump. Read more

Dark-eyed juncos are unique sparrows that nest on or near the ground in forests. In winter, they typically form flocks and often associate with other species, including chipping sparrows, pine and palm warblers (in the southeastern United States.), and bluebirds. When disturbed the entire flock suddenly flies up to a tree, usually perching in the open and calling in aggravation at the intrusion. Polytypic. Length 6.3" (16 cm).
Identification A fairly lean sparrow with a long notched tail and a small pinkish or horn-colored bill (bicolored in dorsalis). Two prominent white outer tail feathers in most subspecies; 3 outermost in the "white-winged." Most subspecies have a gray or brown head and breast sharply set off from a white belly. Otherwise highly variable. Male: typically darker with sharper markings. Female: typically browner with more indistinct markings. Juvenile: heavily streaked, often with a trace of adult pattern.
Geographic Variation The 12 subspecies show marked variation and fall into 5 major groups: "white-winged" (1 ssp.), "Slate-colored" (2 subtle ssp., plus cismontanus), "Oregon" (5 subtle ssp.), "pink-sided" (1 ssp.), and "gray-headed" (2 distinctive ssp.). The groups have at times been considered separate species. The "white-winged" junco is the most local, breeding exclusively in the Black Hills region and wintering along the eastern edge of the Rockies; it is casual to accidental in western Texas, Arizona, and southern California. The "slate-colored" is the most widespread and the only form found regularly in the East. It breeds throughout the species' range east of the Rockies and in the northern region; it winters mainly in the East and is uncommon to rare in the West. The "Oregon" junco breeds in the West Coast states north to southern Alaska and east to central Nevada and western Montana; it winters throughout the West and Great Plains and is casual to the East. The "pink-sided" breeds in the northern Rockies, centered on Yellowstone and ranging from northern Utah to southernmost Alberta and Saskatchewan; it winters in the southern Rockies, Southwest, and western Great Plains, rarely to the West Coast, and is accidental to the East. The "gray-headed" is the subspecies of the southern Rockies, breeding through much of Nevada, Utah, and Colorado south to central Arizona and western Texas; it winters in the southwest and southern Rockies states and is rare to the West Coast and accidental to the East.
The distinctive "white-winged junco," aikeni, is mostly pale gray above, usually with 2 thin white wing bars; it is also larger, with more white on its tail. It is most similar to the "Slate-colored" (which can rarely have narrow wingbars) but is larger and paler, with contrasting blackish lores and more extensive white in the tail. The male "slate-colored junco" has a white belly contrasting sharply with a dark gray hood and upperparts, usually with very little contrast between the hood and back; immatures can have some brown wash on the back and crown. In the female, the amount of brown on the head and at the center of the back varies; it's more extensive in immatures. The "slate-colored junco" comprises 2 subspecies: the widespread nominate and the larger, bluer-billed carolinensis, which is resident in the Appalachians from Pennsylvania to northern Georgia. An additional subspecies, cismontanus, is often grouped with the "slate-colored." It breeds from the Yukon to central British Columbia and Alberta and may winter throughout the West; it is casual to the East. Cismontanus is intermediate between the "slate-colored" and the "Oregon," with males showing a blackish hood that contrasts with a usually grayish back (occasionally with some brown). Females and immatures are very similar to the "Oregon" juncos, but are less distinctly hooded. The male "Oregon" junco has a slaty to blackish hood, contrasting sharply with its rufous-brown to buffy-brown back and sides; the female has duller hood color. Of the 5 "Oregon" subspecies, the more southerly subspecies are paler. The "pink-sided" junco, mearnsi, has broad, bright pinkish cinnamon sides, a blue-gray hood, a poorly defined reddish brown back and wings that do not contrast markedly with the flanks, and blackish lores. Females duller, but retain basic pattern; they can resemble "Oregon" females closely. In the "gray-headed" junco, the pale gray head and dark lores resemble the head pattern of the "pink-sided," but the flanks are gray rather than pinkish, and the back is marked by a very well-defined patch of reddish hue that does not extend to the wings and that contrasts sharply with the rest of the body. A distinctive subspecies, dorsalis, is sometimes known as the "red-backed" junco and is resident from northwestern Arizona through New Mexico to the Guadalupe Mountains of western Texas. It differs from the more widespread, migratory, northerly breeding caniceps in having an even paler throat and a larger, bicolored bill that is black above and bluish below. Intergrades between some subspecies are frequent. Common intergrades are: "pink-sided" x "oregon" and "pink-sided" x "gray-headed." Cismontanus may be a broad intergrade population of "Oregon" x "slate-colored" juncos. Identification to subspecies group thus requires caution to eliminate the possibility of an intergrade; for intergrades, look for intermediate characteristics: For example, a darker, more contrasting hood on a "pink-sided" indicates the influence of "Oregon" genes; reduced pink sides and a well-defined reddish back on a "pink-sided" indicate "gray-headed" parentage.
Similar Species Yellow-eyed junco.
Voice Songs and calls among the subspecies are generally similar, but songs and calls of the "gray-headed" dorsalis are more suggestive of the yellow-eyed junco. Call: sharp dit. Flight note: a rapid twittering. Song: a musical trill on 1 pitch; often heard in winter.
Status and Distribution Common. Breeds south to northern Baja California; winters south to northern Mexico. Breeding: breeds in coniferous or mixed woodlands. Winter: found in a wide variety of habitats, the dark-eyed junco tends to avoid areas of denser brush; it especially favors feeders, parks, and open forest without an understory. Migration: withdraws from wintering areas during April, typically early–mid-April. Fall arrivals first appear in late September, peaking in late October. Vagrant: southern Florida and Europe.
Population Stable.

We Hooked Up. Now What?
Heating things up can lead to some complicated circumstances. Seventeen's sexpert and contributing editor Amber Madison is here to help you handle the most uncomfortable post-hookup situations.
By Amber Madison
A Sobering Situation
A guy and I hooked up while we were drinking. How should I act when I see him sober?
If this is a guy you're interested in, then definitely act friendly. If you ignore him or are too embarrassed to say hi, then he'll think you just made a drunk mistake. I know it takes guts to be the one to strike up a conversation or approach him, but it will show confidence, which will make him like you even more.

In the priority list of:
1. SnB Shield Slam
2. Revenge
3. Shield Slam
4. Dev
It's just like that because the SnB Shield Slam is free, and not on the normal "rotation", and the rest of it is going back to the old rotation of 2344.
So, why do most warriors put SnB Shield Slam up top, other then being free? Cuz it's limited time, if timing is right, and proc's happen like they are suppose to, you can get two Shield Slams in the time that would normally be one slam. Otherwise, yeah Revenge is great for that heroic strike, and it does give slighty more burst threat, but think of it SnB proc more of a powerful DoT, or Threat over Time, if you will.
I'm not good with numbers, never have been, I found 2344 on my own just by guessing and stuff, but that's how I see it. *shrug*

Editor's note: Howard Kurtz is the host of CNN's "Reliable Sources" and is Newsweek's Washington bureau chief. He is also a contributor to the website Daily Download.
(CNN) -- About halfway through The New York Times review of TV chef Guy Fieri's Manhattan restaurant, I realized that the author was wielding a meat cleaver.
Maybe it was Pete Wells' description of the chicken tenders as containing a "shiny tissue of breading that exudes grease onto the plate." Or the "ghostly nubs of unblackened, unspiced white meat" in the Cajun Chicken Alfredo. Or the comparison of Fieri to the writer Calvin Trillin -- if Trillin "bleached his hair, drove a Camaro and drank Boozy Creamsicles."
It was at once delicious and stomach-churning -- a perfect reflection of our rip-their-lungs-out culture.
Let's face it: Media meanness sells. Why slice someone with a surgical precision when you can whack him upside the head with a 2-by-4?
Watch: Why Matt Lauer Is getting a bum rap from mean folks on Twitter
We've all enjoyed the guilty pleasure of seeing some author, actor or filmmaker eviscerated for the sheer sport of it. Good reviews are fine, but what really stirs the water-cooler talk is when the critic draws blood.
But has this trend gone too far in an age when anyone can instantaneously diss anyone else with a single mouse click? Does it amount to pandering to our collective mean gene?
Some public figures revel in the insult wars. Donald Trump has called Rosie O'Donnell "a big fat pig," among other choice phrases, and she's said he keeps returning "like a raging herpes rash." It's a cheap way of getting attention. And the thing is, it works.
Watch: Is it time for Chelsea Clinton, gay marriage activist, to leave NBC?
The most popular pundits on television tend to be pugilists who draw cheers from their partisans for punching out the other guy's lights. When Bill O'Reilly denounces pinheads and loons, his fans eat it up.
Rush Limbaugh caused a furor by calling Sandra Fluke a slut; he later apologized. Ed Schultz called Laura Ingraham a right-wing slut and did the same. Glenn Beck dubbed Barack Obama a racist and his ratings kept climbing. Nice guys don't necessarily finish first.
The virus long ago spread to the political realm.
Watch: Why Rupert Murdoch and other cranky CEOs tweet garbage
Republican Congressman Joe Wilson yelled "you lie!" during President Barack Obama's September 2009 speech to Congress on health care and then used the incident for fundraising. Another congressman, Democrat Alan Grayson, said the Republican health plan was to hope that sick people "die quickly"; he lost the next election but just won his seat back. Yet another congressman, Allen West, called his Florida colleague Debbie Wasserman Schultz "vile" and "not a lady"; he lost his seat during a recount.
Watch: Sex and Sesame Street -- are the media exploiting the Elmo tragedy?
The media, without question, reward incendiary soundbites and intemperate language. That's what keeps the bookers calling, and the resulting visibility can prompt donors to keep writing checks.
Maybe Twitter has played a role in fostering succinct snarkiness. Everyone tries to break through the static and get retweeted.
The new nastiness is evident in scandal coverage as well.
While former CIA director David Petraeus has largely been portrayed as a flawed hero who made a tragic mistake, many in the media have cast Paula Broadwell as a harlot, using lust to achieve her ambition by bringing down a great man. Broadwell, a former senior Army captain, did some dumb things, such as sending harassing e-mails anonymously but doesn't it take two to tango?
The same goes for Jill Kelley, the Tampa socialite who engaged in voluminous e-mail correspondence with Gen. John Allen. Kelley, who volunteered for military causes, is being dismissed in media accounts as a ditzy social climber and worse.
Watch: Lasting leak -- Why Romney's 'gifts' comments diminish him
Meanness wouldn't sell unless there was a market for it. Maybe watching others get sliced and diced makes us feel better about ourselves. Maybe it's just today's version of bread and circuses. And it's a game anyone can play. Ever peruse the comments section on major websites? Readers often start ripping each other as morons and dupes within minutes after a story is posted.
It would be nice if folks with access to the biggest megaphones didn't cater to the lowest common denominator. But that's not the world in which we live.

Best Lightweight Laptops
Somewhere between a full-size laptop and a trim little tablet, you'll find this category of powerful, lightweight computers. Just in time for going back to school, we tested eight ultrabooks, including Apple's MacBook Air, to pick the perfect study partners.
By The Good Housekeeping Institute
Most Portable
MODEL: Toshiba Z835
$849 (as tested) to $1,429
The thinnest and lightest of the PCs is also among the least expensive. Testers praised the touchpad's rare left and right mouse buttons and the three USB ports, SD card slot, and great video graphics. One of the quickest start-up speeds and an average battery life (3.7 hours) make it a wise buy.
With a maximum 128GB of memory, it may eventually require an external drive. We didn't love its keyboard design, thin-sounding audio, or slightly flimsy feel.

Tuesday, August 13, 2013 - True To SizeIt is definitely the comfort I have come to expect from 2xist. I was thinking this would have a more defined pouch but it is much more subtle than I expected. Fits nicely and actually has a slimming effect on my waist which is a plus. I would definitely buy this again.

Thursday, September 27, 2012 - True To SizeIf you like 2xist, which I really do, these are pretty cool. I particularly like the band that feels like soft fabric and combines a cool color scheme. The rest of the briefs may not lend an exciting style, but the feel of the material is soft and more satisfying than your typical brief. (Run your fingers under it, look closely, and you'll somewhat be able to see through it.) I do have to say that, while walking around at work, I felt like the edges of back side rode up in the middle of the cheeks here and there. Perhaps it's just a reminder that I'm working to lose more weight! :P

2014 Nissan GT-R Track Edition loses rear seats, gains performance
by Zach Bowman (RSS feed) on Feb 7th, 2013 at 11:21AM
Nissan is adding yet another tier to the GT-R hierarchy for 2014 with the GT-R Track Edition. Debuting at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show, the bruiser ditches its back seat in the quest for a lower curb weight, and a set of more seriously bolstered front buckets keep occupants planted once the going gets twisty. The Nürburgring-developed Track Edition offers an integrated carbon fiber front splitter with brake cooling ducts as well as an even harder-core suspension. Engineers swapped the stock bits for special Bilstein DampTronic shocks and paired them with more aggressive springs. The... Read More

Click on the Farm Ownership tab at the top to bring our award winning farm to your neighborhood
Apple didn't invent the MP3 player, the LCD screen, thin batteries, or the internet, but they pulled all those technologies together in a way that worked together like never before. That is what we have done with Aquaponics.
Started in 2010, Garden Fresh Farms has made steady progress developing indoor warehouse urban farming agricultural systems. Two methods have been developed and we have been selling produce and fish to the local market.
Our indoor warehouse systems use artificial light and are immune to droughts and other weather conditions effecting traditional agriculture. Our methods are financially sustainable and solve the problems usually created by traditional agriculture.
We pioneered growing produce in a dense and efficiency manner. Our growing systems use land 100 times more efficiently than traditional farming. This allows for indoor growing year round with less water, energy efficiencies , reduced waste and low transportation costs.
We have tested our systems, proved sustainability, developed value added products and forged customers with nationwide demand. Systems can be Aquaponic or Hydroponic with worldwide application. Systems can also be an add-on revenue channel for traditional farming.
We have started our next phase with the roll out of Garden Fresh Farms – St. Paul and plan to grow into additional cities as a total solution for investors looking to capitalize from the current trends in Local ,Natural, Green, access to healthy food and sustainable agriculture.
We also are willing to partner with investors in other cities as part of our commitment to sustainable urban farming and accelerate the process. A partnership with Garden Fresh Farms would provide state of the art equipment, consulting, aid in installation, ongoing support, provide access to new process equipment as developed, co-pack agreements for value added products and to ensure a successful start-up, local fulfillment of customer contracts. Farms are a substantial investment and ownership is only open to accredited investors.

Go Aquaponic!
Our growing systems can be Aquaponic or Hydroponic. We can help develop the aquaculture portion of any Aquaponic operation. Indoor tanks where the fish waste is turned into fertilizer for the plants is the future of sustainable farming. This makes "farm raised fish" safe for the environment. Your accountant will love it too!
We are currently testing the Fruit Factory to grow fruiting plants like tomatoes indoors.
Tour Schedule: Sorry, we no longer can give public tours. Thank you for your understanding.
Chosen Ramsey County Family Farm of the Year 2012
Garden Fresh Farms uses Aquaponics technology in an urban setting to grow food products, in a sustainable manner, year round, in very close proximity to where it will be consumed. Aquaponics is the process of raising fish, using fish waste converted with bacteria into nitrogen to fertilize plants hydroponically and returning clean water back to the fish tanks where the cycle repeats itself.
Join the future of farming, year round growing indoors with consistent quality. Our produce is grown and harvested daily in Maplewood, MN and can be picked up at our convenient location at the intersection of Hwy 36 & Hwy 61.
Starting in 2010, we developed special methods, lighting and equipment that allow us to grow all year-long in a controlled warehouse. No droughts, pesticides or harsh chemicals. We use organic methods in growing, but because we are an Aquaponic operation we are not certified organic. Aquaponics is the method of growing hydroponically, where the fish provide the fertilizer instead of artificial fertilizers and chemicals. It is a special partnership between fish and plants that gives our produce its bountiful bouquet and taste. We naturally fortify our water with calcium and iron for improved nutrition.
All our produce is available year round and starting April 1st for our CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) and RSA (Restaurant Supported Agriculture) subscribers. Variety, not surprises each week helps our subscribers with menu planning with set weekly variety of products. We grow several varieties of leaf lettuce, herbs, sprouts, seasonal berries and mint. We raise rainbow trout and tilapia and harvest them on a regular basis. Your subscription includes fresh artisan breads and other scheduled items. Check our website for the weekly menu.
Access to fresh, natural, locally grown green produce and fresh fish year round, what could be healthier for you and our environment?
What's next?
We have proven that urban agriculture is sustainable in a warehouse environment. We want to help others reach for their dream and replicate Garden Fresh Farms in large urban areas. Imagine owning your own business that is "green", natural, local and healthy. In any economy people have to eat and with the rise in gas prices, consumer purchases of locally produced products will increase.
Helping the Urban Farmer: We are making owning an urban farm within reach of the passive investor who believe in the future of indoor agriculture, wants to be part of the growth, but doesn't want to quite their day job. Under a license agreement with Garden Fresh Farms, we have developed a Limited Partnership structure for farms to be built in your community. We developed a management company to operate the farm and pass on profits to the farm investors. The structure of farm investing, management and distribution under the Garden Fresh Farms name is an effort to help others build local sustainable urban agriculture close to home. Each installation would be scaled to the urban area location population and the "urban farmer's" financial investment. Design, machinery, installation, commissioning the farm and ongoing support would be covered by an upfront license fee and an ongoing license fee. Locations can be Aquaponic or hydroponic based on level of investment, scale,local expertise or urban farmer's desire.

A new Grand Valley women's group staged a "die-in" Tuesday in front of Grand Junction City Hall to protest what activists across the nation are calling a "war on women."
About 20 women and men gathered at 250 N. Fifth St. holding signs bearing messages like "Died - lack of prenatal and childbirth care," "My Uterus, My business," and "Respect Women."
Grand Junction wife and mother Robyn Parker, who holds a degree in women's studies, founded the group "Women Helping Others Resist Exploitation and Sexism" earlier this spring after she become increasingly concerned about contemporary women's issues such as Planned Parenthood de-funding.
"This year, in 2012, 1,100 bills, in state legislatures throughout the country, would reduce women's access to health care and reproductive choices. Three-hundred of those have passed," Parker, 44, said.
"One of the things I want to emphasize it's not just pro-choice versus pro-life. (The war on women) goes beyond that," she said.
The reauthorization of the 1994 Violence Against Women Act passed in May, but with fewer protections for Native American women, undocumented immigrant women and victims of domestic violence. Lesbian women receive no protections under the act.
This month, Senate Republicans blocked consideration of a bill that calls for equal pay for women for equal work.
Cindy Clark was one of those who attended Tuesday's protest and is a member of Women Helping Others Resist Exploitation and Sexism. The name, whose acronym, WHORES, was first considered as a joke, was embraced by women in light of conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh's use of the word "slut" to describe a young women with whom he disagreed.
"The womens' issues we're facing today are of paramount importance," Clark said. "I have a daughter, and a granddaughter. I think of them, and other young people who may have taken their rights for granted.
"And it's frustrating to know so many women who feel this way and are afraid to make their voice known. It's tragic."
Brenda St. John has also joined the newly formed women's group and came out for the rally.
"I feel very strongly about women's rights," she said. "It's my body, my business. I have a daughter. It's her body, her business."
About a dozen women momentarily "played dead" on the sidewalk as their male supporters traced outlines of their bodies on the sidewalk with chalk.
Kathryn Christian said she was attending the protest in solidarity with women in Michigan where a package of bills would limit access to safe, legal abortions and force health care centers that provide pap smears, birth control, annual breast exams and routine gynecology care to close.
Protester Sally Matchett is a retired college professor who said she's concerned not only about a "war on women," but the growing income disparity in the U.S., and democracy in general.
"I'm retired. I think there should be more of us retired here because the younger ones are busy working three or four jobs," she said.

Regulatory excess of the punishing sort for community banks and the liberating variety for credit unions are both challenges for members of the Kansas Bankers Association, they were told at their CEO and Senior Management Forum and Annual Meeting at the Broadmoor in Colorado Springs last month. Also on the program, popular economist Dr. Ed Seifried, enjoying a repeat engagement with the KBA, described how ending the dependence on imported oil promises to dramatically boost GDP growth.
The complexity of Basel III was criticized by Esther George, president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, as well as other speakers, as a burden community banks should not have to bear. Noting that she is determined to read every page of the capital proposals, including a 34-page addendum for community banks, she urged the bankers to do so as well. Basel III is far more complex than the community bank business model, in her opinion, and it ignores community banks experience in allocating risk weights. She noted that the comment period on the proposals has been extended to Oct. 22 and urged the KBA members to make their views known.
The KBAs incoming chairman, Frank L. Carson III, chairman, president and CEO of Carson Bank in Mulvane, also noted the extended deadline. They need to hear from all of you, he said.
Sen. Jerry Moran, R-Kan., called stricter capital rules for community banks misdirected and counterproductive. A one-size-fits-all solution is not a solution when it causes more problems, he said.
Matt Williams, American Bankers Association chairman-elect, reported that a template will be available soon on the ABA website where bankers can analyze how they will be affected by Basel III. He also noted that the KBA has initiated a member survey as part of the process of drafting a comment letter.
Williams, who is chairman, president and CEO of Gothenburg (Neb.) State, also commented on what he called the National Credit Union Administrations end run around credit unions business lending cap by declaring that, because of the drought, any credit union designated as low income will not have to observe the cap. He said the ABA has written to President Barack Obama objecting to the NCUAs move without congressional approval, and is considering a lawsuit to overturn it.
One of the biggest problems the U.S. economy faces is the European financial crisis, according to Ed Seifried, professor emeritus of economics and business at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania, and co-chairman of Seifried & Brew. He does not see the problem easing for at least two more years, during which U.S. interest rates will continue along their current low path. And that being the case, he urged the bankers to keep their deposit prices at rock bottom.
Youre out of your mind to pay 50 to 75 basis points, he said. You should be paying 10 basis points. Banks that I see with the lowest rates still take on deposits. Put the yield curve up where your retail folks can see it, he added. Rates could get lower, Seifried conceded, but he doesnt think they will. Zero percent isnt going to last forever but it isnt going to change for the next year or two.
Lamenting the current slow pace of GDP growth, Seifried said one of the best things happening is the energy independence movement. Imported oil slows U.S. growth, he said. We need to put OPEC out of business.
The largest natural gas find of all time, stretching from Ohio to Virginia and New York to Tennessee is in the process of being exploited, Seifried reported. We need to get interstate trucks, school buses and UPS and mail delivery vehicles off of diesel fuel and onto natural gas, he said. When all interstate trucks are on natural gas GDP growth will jump to 5-6 percent annually and OPEC will be out of business. Starting this fall, Pilot Flying J truck stops will have natural gas available, he added.
Seifried told the bankers in concluding a question and answer period that if they see anything on the horizon more important than energy impacting GDP growth, please tell me.
Next years conference is scheduled for Aug. 810 at the Broadmoor.
Bill Poquette is editor-in-chief of BankNews.

4/10 in Yankee History
The red-letter days…
1998: The largest regular season crowd ever at the post-renovation
original Stadium (56,717) look on as Tino Martinez leads the Yankees to
an historic 17-13 win over the A's. Martinez had 3 hits' including a
double and HR' 5 RBI' and 4 runs. The teams combine for a Yankee
Stadium record with 30 runs' topping the old record of 28 set on June
3' 1933. The Yankees' 17 runs are the most in a home opener since 1955.
1913: President Woodrow Wilson' who receives a gold pass from Ban
Johnson' throws out the first ball at Washington's home opener at
National Park against New York. Under new manager Frank Chance' the New
Yorkers are playing their first regular season game as Yankees.
New York starter George McConnell' 8-12 last year as a 35-year-old
rookie' allows just 6 hits but loses to Walter Johnson 2-1. Danny
Moeller drives in both Nat runs with a single. After giving up an
unearned run in the first' Johnson begins a string of shutout innings
that will reach a record 55 2/3 before the St. Louis Browns score in
the 4th on May 14th. Johnson scatters 8 hits today' including one by 1B
Charlie Sterrett. Regular first sacker Hal Chase' though left-handed'
fills in at second base for injured player/manager Frank Chance.
On other 10ths of April…
2005: The Orioles contribute to the Yankees' poor start with a 7-2 victory at the Stadium. Carl 'American Idle' Pavano, making one of his few starts in pinstripes, allows six singles over 8 innings, as well as a homer to Brian Roberts. Rodrigo Lopez gets the win for the Birds.
1998: On Opening Day in the Bronx, David Cone has nothing, and the Yanks trail the A's 12-5 by the 4th. The Yanks rally though, as Bernie Williams scores four times without ever hitting the ball out of the infield, and Tino Martinez scores four and drives in five with a homer, a double and a single. Mike Buddie will get the 'W' in the 17-13 record-setting win.
1989:The Yankees are victims of Dave Stieb's third one-hitter in his last four starts (dating back to the previous September) as they fall to the Blue Jays, 8-0. Jamie Quirk's 5th inning single is the Bombers' only safety.
1982: The Yankees trade relief pitcher Ron Davis and minor leaguers
Paul Boris and Greg Gagne to the Twins for veteran infielder Roy
Smalley. Gagne hit .270 and .297 over the past two seasons at
1980: At Arlington Stadium' Jon Matlack and Ron Guidry both pitch
shutout ball for 9 innings before being lifted. In the 12th' Goose
Gossage relieves with Mickey Rivers on 3rd and Richie Zisk at the
plate. His first pitch is wild, allowing Rivers to score the game's
only run. Gossage also lost the '78 Opener when Zisk took him deep in
the 9th. Each team manages just 4 hits in the contest with Bob Watson
and Bob Sundberg each collecting three of them
1976: Having failed to hear the time-out call of 1st baseman Chris Chambliss, Yankee reliever Dave Pagan delivers a 9th-inning pitch to the Brewers' Don Money, who hits it for a grand slam and an apparent Milwaukee 10-9 walkoff win. The
time-out nullifies the homer, Money hits a sac fly on the subsequent
pitch, and the visitors will prevail 9-7.
1969: Frank Howard bangs a pair of homers' giving him 4 in 3 games' in
the Senators 9-6 win over the Yankees. Fritz Peterson gives up 10 hits
and 6 runs in taking the loss. For the Yanks' Frank Fernandez hits a pair of
homers' one a grand slam.
1968: In New York' just 15'744 Yankee faithful show up for the home opener with California. Poet Marianne Moore tosses out the
first ball and rookie catcher Frank Fernandez catches it.
then belts a home run off George Brunet for the margin of victory, as
Mel Stottlemyre gets the win' 1-0. Fernandez has one of three hits off
Brunet' while Stottlemyre allows just four hits. This is one of four
shutouts (out of ten games) pitched on Opening Day.
1963: The Yankees follow an 8-2 opening day victory yesterday with a
5-3 victory today at Kansas City. The 45*F weather takes its toll' as
Yankee starter Bill Stafford leaves in the 7th inning with a twinge in
his right arm' and will never be quite the same. Mickey Mantle homers
but pulls a muscle in his last at bat that he will re-injure on the
13th' sidelining him for 2 weeks.
1962: At the Stadium' Mickey Mantle' Roger Maris' and Moose Skowron'
the three Yankees who combined for 143 homers last season' hit Opening
Day blasts to propel New York to a come-from-behind 7-6 win over
Baltimore. Moose's shot is a two-run job to dead center that he legs
out for an inside-the -park homer' while Mantle hits his in the 8th
inning to tie the game' Maris hits a 3-run shot in the 5th. Johnny
Temple' in his first game for the O's' has three hits' including a
homer. Starters Billy Hoeft and Whitey Ford are gone after six innings'
and the win goes to Ralph Terry' while Hal Brown takes the loss.
1946: Bob Watson, 1b-DH for the 1980-81 Yankees, and general manager of the team in 1996-97, is born. Happy 65th, Bob!
1940: In an exhibition game in Ashland' KY' the Yankees collect only 2
hits off Max Macon and Newt Kimball but beat the Dodgers' 7-6. The
scoring comes in the 4th on a Red Rolfe (below) single' 4 walks' and 2 errors'
and in the 6th on Babe Dahlgren's solo home run. The Yanks do lose Jake
Powell' who suffers a cerebral concussion in an outfield collision.
Powell will play just 12 games this season.
Red Rolfe
1934: Author and historian David Halberstam is born. Halberstam was
also a Yankee fan who penned excellent accounts of the 1949 pennant
race ('Summer of '49) and the 1964 World Series (October, 1964). He
died in 2007, age 73.
1928: The Brooklyn Robins beat the Yankees' 7-2' to earn a split in
their 4 game series. The World Champions end their exhibition season
with a 6-14 record' going 3-10 against major-league competition.

Pack of 3
Order in the next 5 hours 16 minutes and select next working day for delivery to mainland UK on Tuesday
The no trip gate is a screw mounted gate with quick release fittings making it easy for an adult to detach the gate when full access between the rooms is needed. The gate opens either way, and can be operated with one hand. This pack offers great value and contains 3 gates.
This is a very easy to use gate. At such a great price I was worried about the quality but I was wrong! These gates are highly recommended as the are great quality, the open inwards or outwards which is very useful. It does not have a trip bar at the bottom so fantastic for stairs. They come with quick release fittings so you can take the gate away if needed and store. They were very easy to fit (we did not use the templates from past experience with other similar items) fitted in about 20 mins. They are so sturdy we now have total peace of mind that they are not going anywhere even with a little one pulling on them. If you want a cheap, easy to fit, easy to use,, practical, no nonsense gate then this is for you.
Ideal gate for stairs and doorways
Great gates, just what we needed. No trip hazard which was essential to us, especially as one gate fitted at top of stairs. We fit them so there was a gap at the bottom for the cats to get under, but a small enough gap no baby could get through!
