I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream.
Posted on
I love the blizzards from Dairy Queen, especially the strawberry cheesecake. My nephews and nieces love all of them as well. The problem is that the small size is still too large for them to finish in one sitting...and expensive. Those small sizes certainly aren't cheap by no stretch of the imagination.
Now they came out with the mini blizzard, and the size is absolutely perfect for the youngsters. I loaded em' all up in the back seat of the truck, and hit the local Dairy Queen. And for only $1.99 each! I'm not sure how long this promotion will last, but I'm glad they have it. Thanks Dairy Queen!

Our Dairy queen was taken over by Baskin-Robbins...
Too bad...
Anonymous on 04/30/2011:
We have a small town, but we still have a couple of Dairy Queens, one Baskin-Robbins, and a Cold Stone Creamery. I prefer Dairy Queen for the Blizzard, Baskin-Robbins for the malts, and Cold Stone when I feel like splurging.
Anonymous on 04/30/2011:
Is this promotional sale for participating locations only, or locations nationwide?
Since Coldstone Creamery closed here and Baskin Robbins is deemed much too expensive by many in town, our local Dairy Queen gets all the business. Blizzards are the # 1 bestseller. Our DQ is especially popular with our local sports teams and other groups after games and events as well.

And isn't the blizzard called Strawberry Cheesequake?
Anonymous on 04/30/2011:
Ript> I believe you're right on the correct name, and I'm not sure if the mini blizzards are a nationwide promo or not? I would assume that they are, but you never know?
trmn8r on 04/30/2011:
This promotion sounds like a good idea, and the item sounds like a good one also.
I can buy a decent brand of premium ice cream for $3.00 a whatever-the-size-is-now. They can't sell a small treat for kids at $1.99??? Maybe not if they have to pay the employees to stand around picking their noses while waiting for customers...
DebtorBasher on 04/30/2011:
I haven't been to a Dairy Queen for such a long time. I have a Custard Stand right around the corner from me so I usually get something from there. But, Man-O-Man I used to LOVE those DQ Peanut Parfaits...and I loved their Ice Cream Sandwiches...you got me hungry from some DQ now. I have a DQ not too far from here........yummy...

I think that promo for the $1.99 mini-blizzard ended on April 30th. My favorite is the Choco Cherry Love with extra cherry stuff.
Kathy on 05/23/2011:
Our local DQ has a policy that they claim has come from corporate. Last night me/my daughter were there. We ordered a small sundae, medium cone and blizzard to go. They made our sundae and cone and sat it in window. My daughter reached for her cone and the girl screamed at her that she could not have the cone. She said nobody could take their order until the whole order was complete. So we stood there while our ice cream melted while they made our to-go blizzard. I literally freaked on the shift leader. He told me he agreed it was stupid but that it was corporate policy. So, if you go there with a large family to order ice cream, be prepared to stand and watch all your cones, etc. melt while they are making the last of your order. This is the DUMBEST - STUPIDEST policy I've ever heard of. DQ will no longer get my family's business.

Poor Service / Management-Employees Rude Profanity
Posted by
IOWA CITY, IOWA -- New Dairy Queen, opens next to a Wal-Mart on HWY 1 in Iowa City Ia.
It's Wednesday the 13 of June. I just finished a 14 hour day at work, and my daughters called me to see if I could bring something home for dinner. I didn't see any thing wrong with that. The youngest wanted ice cream and the oldest wanted chili fries. The new Dairy Queen opened late last fall and I had been there two other times. Yes their service was slow and the (16-18yr olds)that work there are most often polite do a good job.
Well until this time. I waited several minutes for the 4 employees to help me and take my order, I waited for them to come out from back 5 to 6 minutes. I ordered 2 burgers,1 chili fry and 2 ice cream treats $21.89.The ice cream teats were done in minutes while I waited another 15 minutes for them to complete the rest.(so I thought)one handed me a bag that I thought had every thing in it. And drove 15 miles home, my oldest brought it to my attention that there was only chili fries in the bag with napkins.
I grabed the receipt to call the Dairy Queen, but they did not have their address or phone number on the receipt. At that time I called and ordered a pizza from a nearby pizza shack and gathered every thing from Dairy Queen back up got in the car drove 15 miles back into town. As soon as I walked through the door three of the employees saw me and walked to the back as soon as they could. One other employee came out after waiting 15 minutes for service. Explained the problem to her, She called for her shift supervisor, one of the original four that was working (there no work involved)Magan was her name she attempeted to play it dumb as she didn't know any thing about the order that she just got to work.
I told her to stop, that I knew for a fact she was there and helped with the order and quoted some of the conversation she had with the others while I waited. Then she fed me more of a lie saying she tried to catch me when I left with the burgers but I was already in my car and leaving. So I asked for the burgers then she tells me they threw them out and it would take 14 minutes to recook them. I told her fine and they should redo the rest of the order also.
I was told I would have to reay for every thing Dairy Queens policy.
I told her to refund me my money I was told we can't do that. That I needed to talk to the manager. I asked for the manager, and was told I could stop back in the next day and talk to him. I told her to call him and get him in here. I can't and I don't like your tone you need to leave and she just left.
The next day I stopped in talked to the manager Corey about this ordeal and was told she talked to Magan last night He would stand by her decission as how she handled it.
So I'm taking even further action in a lawsuit and running down the Dairy Queen name.

You're going to sue them over this? Good luck winning this one. As a side note, it's always helpful to check your order before you leave the premises.
trmn8r on 06/16/2012:
What is the basis of the lawsuit that you have planned? I'm not seeing it.
I wasn't clear if you asked for a refund and to not take any food with you. The way I read the complaint you asked for the food and a refund. I think they should give you a refund if you demand your money back, so you can eat elsewhere. Since you ordered pizza I thought that might be what you had in mind.
With the price of gas what it is these days, and time being rarer than ever, it really pays to check your bags at take-out restaurants. It shouldn't necessarily be that way, but it is a good insurance policy. The compensation you are eligible for is usually only getting the items that were missed the first time, which makes it a losing proposition.
TLSmith on 06/16/2012:
Today is Sunday 6/16/12. I guess that you'll start calling Lawyers tomorrow (Monday) Judge Judy and The People's Court Judge never award 'gas money' R U really considering suing over $21.89? Are you aware of what Lawyers charge by the hour? Lets start at $150.00

Service People Are So Rude.
Posted by
GREELEY, COLORADO -- I don't know if anyone else has to deal with being heavy and wanting an ice cream cone, but I walked in to DQ and ordered a small cone. I overheard a group of silly girls in the corner laughing and looking at me. Then I overheard one say, "she's so fat, she shouldn't have anything to eat!" Well, admittedly I am on the heavy side but I shouldn't have to have it pointed out by a bunch of smart ass little girls. Really disappointed in the service, I would have complained to the manager but she was laughing with them.
I know I am opening up to all sorts of ridicule by writing this because there is always someone who feels it's necessary to belittle those of us who are not born perfect, but I have had enough rudeness. I am in the health care field and have never tried to make anyone feel bad about who they are.

I fully understand where you are coming from. I am a big girl as well and it is hurtful to deal with the stares and comments when I do venture out on occasion. I have heard similar comments when I have been out at an establishment. I probably go to Dairy Queen/Baskin Robbins/Coldstone etc MAYBE twice a year - as a treat. I usually go with a group of friends after a softball tourney. Everyone else can order the large dipped cones or a fancy blizzard etc with no questions asked. I order a small dipped cone and I get looks from everyone.
Don't let them get to you. I know its easier to say that and I tell myself the same thing all the time. but you know what - they don't know you and it is none of their business what you do. Be thankful you aren't as small minded as they are and next time vote with your wallet and go elsewhere. People like that aren't worth your time.
When I was younger, I had a family member tell me I would have so many more friends if I would lose all the weight and be thin. I told her that if people will only be my friend if I look a certain way then I don't want to associate with anyone like that.
Just because a person is large doesn't mean they don't exercise or eat healthy meals. Yeah, sure ice cream isn't healthy - but you aren't eating it 5 times a day. A TREAT - everyone is entitled to a treat.
Don't let them get to you. Always remember this:
Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly is all the way to the bone.
Suzy on 06/30/2013:
Beautiful faces don't make ugly souls any more pleasant to deal with and people who are surrounded by friends because of those beautiful faces will find themselves alone when the outside beauty is no longer there. I would much rather have someone at my side that doesn't care what the outside looks like because they are the ones that will be there for you for life and you often find they are the ones that are the most fun to be with.

Obvious Lie
Posted by
ASHLAND, OHIO -- I recently visited the ashland oh dq branch. I usually customize my blizzards w/ others stuff, making it really my own form of art. needless to say, I walked through the poor, immediately smelling the previously familiar cotton candy flavor, & I wanted it in my planned customized banana split, or blizzard. one lady worker in blue confirmed having me cotton candy blizzards. I was trying to plan a usual customization when another lady worker in black came out, lied about the cotton candy. when I actually caught her in that lie, she was trying to cover up after I told her that I know for a fact that yes they DO have the cotton candy; I smelled it real strong as I came through the door. I was ready to pay well for something customize, even had a $10 will ready to pay. I was about to redeem a coupon, but after a brief argument, about her our, I ended up leaving. I simply refuse to settle for less than I bargained for, especially when someone flatly denies that I obviously smelled the cotton candy as I entered. I had the same things before, even had it by itself once when it was new. the smell of the cotton candy flavor was an obviously fresh one, & the lady in black said they didn't have it anymore. I hate lying tongues, & I'm not likely to ever shop there again, & I live right near it on the next street over. when I visited another ice cream shop, I got what I wanted, in the exact flavor I wanted. I told that shop why I visited them & what just happened to bring me there, & they were disgusted that such a reputable place would deny a customer something available, especially when it can be smelled in the air by all who enter their shop. the new shop I visited across town was happy to help me in any way they could. I'm now warning others about what dq did. I plan on contributing to the complaint boards as much as I possibly can regarding this issue.

Is it possible that you could smell it because it was really popular that day and they had run out? Did you speak with a manager or contact corporate? What did they say?
Anonymous on 11/07/2011:
Just because you smell it, doesn't mean any was available. Smells can linger, even after the food is gone.
trmn8r on 11/07/2011:
Both good and bad smells definitely can linger. If you need proof check out the my3c bashing thread on crybabies. A stench befitting of a treatment plant has been brewing there for over a year.
When it comes to sweet smells, perhaps this one was of something they no longer had. I can't imagine the benefit for them to deny you something that you craved.

Very Rude
Posted by
BELLEFONTE, PENNSYLVANIA -- I went to Dairy Queen located in Bellefonte, P. A. to get a birthday cake. I found one took it to the counter and paid for it. I asked the girl working if I could get happy birthday Paula on it. She said sure. Took the cake and sat it on the counter behind her and walked away. About 20 minutes goes by and my cake is still sitting there. So I asked the guy working the counter about my cake. He said hold on... Comes back with my cake and says very rudely WE DON'T HAVE TIME TO WRITE ON YOUR CAKE. Sits the cake on the counter and walks away.
I would like to have someone take care of this. I should have gotten the cake for free. Now to add to the situation the cake was for my mother in law who's sister passed away on her birthday so we were trying to cheer her with a small party after arriving home.

Racism in Dairy queen, I guess I shouldn't have been surprised from a small Texas town
Posted on
NOCONA, TEXAS -- I (Asian American)was waiting in line with my wallet in my hand for 3-5 minutes and no one would come to the cash register. Yet when a white woman (my mother-in-law) walked up, she was served immediately and paid from a worker that came out of NO WHERE. As she was getting served, a black couple walked in and was also waiting in line with me. Then the person that served the white lady WALKED AWAY when all three of us was standing there! I saw 6 other people behind the counter and they also did not come to help. I have written to the branch and to corporate, and still have not heard hide nor hair from them for a week now.

Did your mother-in-law walk right up to the counter? Were you standing further back? If she walked right up to the counter, that alerts the employees that she's ready to order. If you are standing away from the counter, the employees may assume you are still deciding what to order. Next time, speak up and yell out that you are ready to order

Is it tainted?
Posted by
Normally, the ice cream at D. Q. is very good but today 9-3-2011) I got a chocolate waffle cone with chocolate ice cream and it had a very bad taste. I tried to eat it but it left a stinging feeling on my tongue and sour taste which I could not tolerate. I went back to DQ and told them about it. My daughter had a vanilla cone and it was fine so they gave me a new cone with vanilla which definitely was much better. I have made a complaint to the DQ office and am waiting to see if I should seek medical attention. It WAS that BAD!!

Maybe you should have kept a sample, and had an independent lab test it, to find out what the heck is going on with it. Better safe then sorry.
Anonymous on 09/04/2011:
I've gotten a bad taste... kind of sour from the local DQ ice cream once and I threw it out. It was just gross. I didn't tell them about it and I probably should have but I haven't had a problem since.
If you feel you need medical attention you should get it right away. There is no point in waiting for it to get worse.
DQ Customer on 07/12/2012:
I have had the same problem as various DQ's here in Colorado - the chocolate cone I got last night was so BAD tasting, like tangy and sharp that I did not eat it - what a waste. I have had this happen at two different DQ's in different cities - sometimes it is OK, other times it is terrible - I think it went bad and they are still serving it!!!! Was afraid I was going to suffer for eating the couple of bites I took, and I did about an hour later...I am done - no more DQ for me!
june on 03/22/2014:
This is real and no ad intended. I'm an avid of DQ too, I always go there when I'm sad/lonely etc, Everyttime I go there I've always ordered a large Oreo moolatte (so basically I'm already fond of its taste). Just bought one now and it tasted quite SOUR, the whipped cream was fine, its just something's wrong with the solution below.
Is there ice cream machine burnt or are there products expired?! Idk. I hope nothing ill will happen to me

Starlord on 07/03/2011:
I am probably mgoing to be deleted once more for attempting to diminsih the importance of the OP's post, but give me a break. Dairy Queen is presenting nonsense commercials, working on the use of DQ as part of the word RIDQULOUS. It is a clever campaign to cause you to remember the food items. Of course kittens in bubbles is a silly idea, but so is waterski boxing and a rock and roll falcon. It is no more offensive than a guy living under a rock or using a lightning device against a ninja. People are so jaded it takes more and more ridiculous images to make you think of the products. Kittens in bubbles is not offensive for the prime reason that it is impossible and just plain silly. No one really believes there are kittens in soap bubbles.
Nohandle on 07/03/2011:
Until TRM shared the commercial I thought it was of kittens being bathed in a bubbly bath and them crying to get out.
I love cats as much, if not more, as any other cat lover around here. I can assure you those kittens were not trapped inside a *Real* bubble and crying to get out. Perhaps DQ will find another way to advertise their cakes if too many object.

Venice09 on 07/03/2011:
I think the DQ commercials are just as the slogan says. Ridiculous. At least they admit to it and are not trying to insult the viewer's intelligence. The entire ad campaign is based on ridiculousness. For some reason, I can live with that.
trmn8r on 07/03/2011:
"as an animal lover, I think they could have found a different way of showing cute kittens"
If you found the kittens to be cute, just how bad was the commercial?
I am an animal lover too. Cats can't GET stuck in bubbles, they can't even get into a bubble.
PaulaJ on 07/03/2011:
The only annoying thing about the kittens in bubbles commercials is that what does kittens in bubbles have to do with ice cream? I agree with another post-er who said it would be better off as a cat food commercial.
Venice09 on 07/03/2011:
Paula, kittens in bubbles have nothing to do with ice cream. That's why it's 'ridiculous'!

Dairy Queen in Greer, SC Stinks
Posted by
GREER, SOUTH CAROLINA -- I had gotten an excellent on in Richmond Hill, GA & thought I would like to have another. I was extremely disappointed in the second one in Greer. The poster showed whole strawberries covered in chocolate but when I got min it had about a tablespoon of strawberry syrup and no strawberry in sight. I complained and the "manager" said that's the way we make them here. I emailed the main office and was told that my complaint had been sent to the powers that be and that was the last of that! I have grandchildren whom I would take there if the products were as advertised. I can get the same thing at McDonalds for 1/4 the price. No more DG for us!!!!!!!!!!

This is an excellent point. All locations are not the same for some franchises. As the manager said "this is the way we make them here."
They can probably get away with that, but look how it affects a loyal customer like you.
Thanks for stopping by - good review and details.

Ripped off for the second time....
Posted by
SANFORD, NORTH CAROLINA -- I have been a valuable customer at DQ for quite some time now. Recently, however, I drove to the Dairy Queen in my town of Sanford, NC, and I had some problems. I bought a large oreo cheesequake blizzard and paid for extra ingredients, but when I started eating it there were barely any oreos and now cheesecake at all. I went to the register to see why this happened and they told me it had plenty of it all in there. I showed them it but they still said the same thing. I was a bit angry but it didn't bother me until they did the exact same thing the very next time I went. I paid the same extra money and I still got ripped off by the same people. This kind of service is what made my favorite fast food chain go to one of my least favorite.

trmn8r on 06/26/2011:
It stands to reason that if you went back, and the same people were working, that your experience would be identical. Correct?
The question I have, or the first one, has something changed? Have you ordered the same thing and gotten more in the past?
The second question is, what is a "valued customer"?
Anonymous on 06/26/2011:
It must be the location, because our local DQ always has an abundance of ingredients without having to pay and request for extra. I wouldn't let these experiences diminish your fondness of DQ overall, but instead just that branch. Better luck somewhere else!

Purchase Reason
The picture on Art.com had a wash effect. I believe this comes from the way it was photographed or rendered. The binary code on the actual picture is more distinct and a distraction. Overall if i had been able to see this picture up close I never would have bought it.

text: 5 "..ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES EVER!!! EPIC.."sdx800 | 25/07/2012 | See all sdx800's reviews (1814)Number 1 Reviewer Number 1 DVD Reviewer Top 100 Games Reviewer Top 10 Gadgets Reviewer Top 10 Toys Reviewer This truly is an epic masterpiece and Christopher Nolan has completed what is the perfect batman trilogy! Rises has an amazing story that is set 8 years after the last events, everything is on a bigger and bolder scale now, the action is amazing, the character development is fantastic and there are lots of new additions to the trilogy all having major parts to play in the story, Tom Hardy is an amazing villain with Bane being an epic screen presence with his size and strength, Anne Hathaway was amazing as cat woman (although not referred to as) very slick and sexy in her role, plus great roles from Joseph Gorden-Levitt and the usual faces Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Gary Oldman. This is a very dark and very serious movie with allot of emotion and depth and must not be missed!! The ending as shocking in some ways but still great and leaves the story open for many possibilities, the movie score by Hans Zimmer is also an amazing addition to the movie making every scene even more epic!!

creative expression?
go find some gutter rat left wing activist who cares
An online journal about visual art, the urban landscape and design. Mary Louise Schumacher, the Journal Sentinel's art and architecture critic, leads the discussion and a community of writers contribute to the dialogue.
Political theater is one thing. It's what Milwaukeeans have come to expect from Ald. Robert G. Donovan. But to look a group of young people in the eye and call their art and their efforts at bettering the community and themselves "crap" is something else altogether.
This is what Donovan did when he called a press conference and released statements last week attacking TRUE Skool, a non-profit group that works with at-risk young people through neighborhood cleanups and public art projects.
What prompted Donovan to point his finger toward the group, which has been around since 2004, was a temporary mural that a police captain told him would "give him a stroke" and which was created by an artist and a few students during TRUE Skool's annual block party in Walker's Point. »Read Full Blog Post

Sebastian Vettel says there is still "a lot" to come from Red Bull as the German bids to be crowned F1's youngest triple World Champion.
The German is the favourite to secure the Drivers' title this weekend in Brazil as he holds a 13-point advantage over Fernando Alonso in the standings. And he's driving one of the best cars in the field.
That was apparent yet again on Friday when Vettel finished second in the practice sessions at the Interlagos circuit, bringing his RB8 home in 0.274s adrift of Lewis Hamilton's best.
Asked whether he was confident about his chances this weekend, the 25-year-old said: "We will see. It is a bit unknown what is going to come. So far we can be happy.
"We have to do our homework and improve the car, there is a lot still to come.
"Obviously we don't know what the weather is going to do. Today is incredibly hot, tomorrow is supposed to be hot with maybe some rain, and Sunday a bit cooler - this is Sao Paulo so it could be anything."
Vettel, though, is confident that even if the rain were to come down it would not negate Friday's work.
"Nowadays we don't really have a wet set-up anymore, there are a couple of things you would like to change if it is really wet, but if it is not that wet then we will just put on the wet tyres and go from there," Vettel told Sky Sports F1.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Get to know the courageous, highly-skilled men and women who risk their lives to keep the power flowing and the lights burning (and THE HISTORY CHANNEL® on your TV).
- Technicians work on live power lines carrying as much as 765,000 volts.
- Meet old-timers and new trainees, and see how the craft has evolved over the decades.
- A thorough history of one of the most dangerous jobs in the modern world: electrical lineman.
Since man first caught lightning in a bottle and tamed electricity, we have maintained a wary relationship with this unimaginably critical but deadly force. We have always relied on a select caste of technicians to wrangle the vital spark for us: the linemen (and, increasingly, linewomen).
Over every fruited plain and purple mountain of this nation are strung lines conveying hundreds of thousands of volts to the remotest corners. Every mile of line represents an engineering marvel and an imperiled life.
In this special presentation from THE HISTORY CHANNEL®, you have a rare chance to meet these unsung heroes of American progress. Go back in time with men who put up lines half a century ago against stunning odds. Meet victims of harrowing power line accidents. See how todays trainees are being prepared and watch as they learn how to rescue comrades from high voltage towers.
In the early days, the death toll among these men was one in two. Through their own improvisational ingenuity they devised home-made solutions to many of the problems that hampered electrical distribution and made their work so dangerous. The work remains risky making repairs from the skids of a hovering helicopter, voluntarily allowing 500,000 volts to pass through you but today the death toll is far lower and the real story is the mammoth scope of modern electrification projects.
Youre in for a shock, youre in for a treat, from this special THE HISTORY CHANNEL® presentation, HIGH VOLTAGE.

I was moving from my house and rented a storage unit from Uncle Bob's, and each time I have to go into the office I am treated with respect, even though most of the time I was a dirty sweaty mess from moving, and Bob at the Enterprise facility in DeBary, has been very helpful. I also bought a bunch of storage boxes and tape from Uncle Bob's and "Bob" was very helpful to me when deciding which sizes I needed for the stuff I was storing. My overall experience has been great.Michele from Deltona, FL

even more integrated. that goes against the basic framework through which
we typically analyze the UK in terms of it's geopolitical imperatives.
preisler (of course) found some obscure historical anecdote which proves
that this is in fact well documented in British history, but for all
intents and purposes, it is new and historically ironic. (I think that is
irony, but you should ask ben west since he is the irony police.)

Which OS item are we looking at that is sparking the argument about the
UK wants European powers to congeal? I saw that UK wants ECB to step in
but am wondering if I missed something else. UK is interested in saving
the European market, and the ECB option, if it weakened Germany as Peter
says it would, wouldnt be that bad of an idea.
But in general this is something that we do need to look at. If it comes
down to it, it seems UK would want greater EU17 powers (which they are
not part of ) over EU or Eurozon dissolution

Insight: Euro has new politburo but no solution yet
PARIS | Mon Nov 7, 2011 10:18am EST
(Reuters) - Europe has a new informal leadership directorate intent on
finding a solution to the euro zone's debt crisis, but it has yet to
prove its ability to come up with a lasting formula.
Forged in the fire of a bond market inferno, the shadowy so-called
Frankfurt Group has grabbed the helm of the 17-nation currency area in
a few short weeks.
The inner circle comprises the leaders of Germany and France, the
presidents of the executive European Commission and of the European
Council of EU leaders, the heads of the European Central Bank and the
International Monetary Fund, the chairman of euro zone finance
ministers, and the European Commissioner for economic and financial
Europe's new politburo met four times on the sidelines of last week's
Group of 20 summit in Cannes, issuing an ultimatum to Greece that it
would not get a cent more aid until it met its European commitments,
and arm-twisting Italy to carry out long delayed economic reforms and
let the IMF monitor them.
In a tell-tale recognition of the new ad hoc power center, members
wore lapel badges marked "Groupe de Francfort."
U.S. President Barack Obama attended one of the meetings, getting what
he joked was a "crash course" in the complexity of Europe's laborious
decision-making processes and institutions.
"He proved to be a quick learner," one participant said.
Two people familiar with the discussion said he argued for the euro
zone to make its financial backstop more credible by harnessing the
resources of the ECB, but German Chancellor Angela Merkel and ECB
President Mario Draghi resisted.
Obama also supported a proposal to pool euro zone countries' rights to
borrow from the IMF to help bolster a firewall against contagion from
the Greek debt crisis, but Germany's central bank opposed this too,
the sources said.
The president referred obliquely to the debate at a news conference
the next day, saying: "European leaders understand that ultimately
what the markets are looking for is a strong signal from Europe that
they're standing behind the euro."
Hours earlier, a television camera in the Cannes summit conference
room caught Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron discussing
the issue while waiting for the start of the final working session.
Cameron, whose country is not in the euro, has called publicly for the
ECB to act as the lender of last resort for the euro zone, as the
Federal Reserve does for the United States, and the Bank of England
for Britain.
When Merkel entered the room, Obama pulled her aside for a private
conversation. An open microphone caught his opening words: "I guess
you guys have to be creative here."
The Frankfurt Group came about on the hoof to try to fashion a crisis
response in something closer to the short timespan of frantic
financial markets.
It seems destined to endure, not least because the growing imbalance
between a stronger Germany and a weaker France means other players are
needed to broker decisions.
Crucially, it aims to bridge the ideological gulf between northern and
southern Europe, and between supporters of the orthodox German focus
on fiscal discipline and an independent central bank with the sole
task of fighting inflation, and advocates of a more integrated and
expansive economic and monetary union.
The presence of IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde gives the
group greater credibility in the markets, as well as providing a
reality check on what international lenders expect and the limits to
their willingness to support the euro zone.
It all began with a blazing row at the Old Opera House in Frankfurt on
October 19 that spoiled Jean-Claude Trichet's farewell party after
eight years as president of the ECB.
As the fallout from Greece's debt crisis singed European banks and
panicky investors dumped euro zone government bonds, French President
Nicolas Sarkozy, who had snubbed the ceremony in honor of Trichet,
flew in at the last minute to meet a visibly irritated Merkel.
Sarkozy himself said that day that France and Germany were at odds
over how to leverage the euro zone's financial rescue fund. The French
wanted to let the European Financial Stability Facility operate as a
bank and borrow money from the ECB.
"In Germany, the coalition is divided on this issue. It is not just
Angela Merkel whom we need to convince," Sarkozy told lawmakers,
according to Charles de Courson, who was present.
At the Frankfurt meeting, described by one participant as "explosive,"
Merkel and Trichet firmly opposed the idea, which they said would
violate the European Union's treaty prohibition on the central bank
financing governments.
Germany insisted on that clause when the ECB was created because of
its own history of fiscal abuse of the central bank that fueled
hyperinflation in the 1920s and funded the Nazis' massive rearmament
in the run up to World War Two.
As French officials tell it, Merkel is not so hostile to the proposal
as her finance minister, Wolfgang Schaeuble, and the head of the
German Bundesbank, Jens Weidmann.
The French are convinced that Merkel understands the ECB will have to
be more centrally involved in fighting bond market contagion, but she
cannot get it through her divided coalition for now. They see the ECB
as the main center of resistance.
After hearing a chorus of Obama, Cameron and the leaders of India,
Canada and Australia at the G20, Merkel acknowledged that the rest of
the world found it hard to understand that the ECB was not allowed to
play the role of lender of last resort.
But the crisis may have to get still worse before the Germans and the
ECB relent, if they ever do.
The Frankfurt Group has already had an impact in euro zone crisis
management but like all informal core groups it has begun to stir
resentment among those who are excluded, and it has yet to prove its
ability to craft a convincing longer-term solution.
North European creditor countries such as the Netherlands, Slovakia
and Finland, where public hostility to further euro zone bailouts is
fierce, are already grumbling about decisions being taken behind their
In Greece and Italy, there has been strong criticism of the perceived
arrogance of "Merkozy," as the Franco-German duumvirate are
increasingly nicknamed, in summoning their prime ministers to receive
German and French officials shrug off such complaints as inevitable,
noting that EU partners are even more unhappy when France and Germany
do not agree, since that paralyses Europe.
"There is always a trade-off between legitimacy and efficacy," said an
EU official involved in the Frankfurt Group. "The euro area
institutions were not designed for crisis management so we need
innovative solutions.
"In an emergency like this, we have to have a structure that works,"
he said, adding that the presence of the European Commission and of
European Council President Herman Van Rompuy guaranteed that the
interests of smaller member states would be taken into account.
EU officials had held conference calls with the 15 other euro zone
states during the Cannes summit "to keep them in the loop." The head
of the EFSF, Klaus Regling, was secretly flown to Cannes to brief the
leaders on the state of accelerated preparations to leverage the
rescue fund, one source said.
Merkel long resisted French pressure to create more of an "economic
government" in the euro zone, not least because she did not want
Germany to be in a minority on issues such as bailouts, free trade or
the EU budget.
She also did not want to alienate German allies and neighbors such as
Denmark, Poland and the Czech Republic, which are not in the euro
But recent problems in smaller countries that aggravated market
turmoil -- Finland's demand for collateral on loans to Greece and
Slovakia's parliamentary wrangling over increasing the EFSF's powers
-- convinced her of the need for stronger leadership to impose order.
Whether the Frankfurt Group will be the forum that finally convinces
Germany to accept a bigger crisis-fighting role for the ECB, or the
creation of jointly issued euro zone bonds, remains to be seen.

I don't see how nothing major happened in Europe today. Italian bond rates at record highs, IMF basically telling the Russians, "Don't bother, just protect yourselves," UK/Ireland openly calling for the ECB to step up and save the day, Roesler saying it's not out of the realm of possibility that Greece be expelled (can you imagine something like that just a month ago?), Ollie Rehn somehow thinking it's appropriate to openly state how another member state should arrange its new government.
Not saying that Iran isn't an important topic, but am saying that Europe had several important developments today.

World - I was actually thinking yesterday that it had been a long time since we laid out our view on the likelihood of attacking Iran and, if an attack was going to be undertaken, how it would and wouldn't appear to the public. What are the national interests in bringing this issue up again? Nothing major happened in Europe today - which as Peter points out - isn't a great sign in and of itself - but it would be nice to do a diary on the Middle East and things that explode rather than Europe and finances for a change of pace.
Europe - Greece talk about the formation of Greece's unity government and who will be the interim Prime Minister - but none of that matters to anyone who isn't a Greek politician. Nobody else cares what that government looks like as long as it has the authority to pass the bailout agreement, get $$ and hold elections. Between Poland's issues with Gazprom today, Nord Stream coming online tomorrow and the increasing talks about whether a Greek bankruptcy could derail plans to diversify gas supplies for Southern Europe with Azerbaijani gas via interconnectors in Greece - it could be interesting to do a diary specifically on the implications of the financial crisis for Europe's energy environment.

As far as home schooling is concerned, why would I want to be with my parents 24/7? There's a gigantic world out there and I don't care to experience it lockstep with my family.
Are not other peoples values imposed upon those folks because most view such an act as unacceptably too taboo?
Actually, it is the homosexual that is trying to impose his or her perceived values on a society that has never accepted homosexuality as anything other than deviant from the societal norm.
Is that because they view the nuns as being sexier or just plain old more permissive than muslim women would be wearing high heels under their hiked-up burkas? If not, then why the obviously blatant discrimination against Muslims?
I suggest you stop watching parades.
I view their mockery of Catholic nuns as something more than outlandish, it is profanity. Yet, not even the most progressive liberals dare to mock/affront the followers of Allah in such an openly public display of profanity.
Why do you think that is, Lulu?
Why is it that what is seen as blasphemous to one group of believers so therefore highly discouraged by our elected officials, is yet still given the greenlight in the name of 1st Amendment rights concerning another?
Why is this obvious discrimination acceptable, in your opinion, managing editor of the News-Register, Steve Bagwell?
I'd much rather pass time laughing and making merry with intelligent, witty homosexuals than with hand-wringing, self-proclaimed saints wearing frowny faces while sitting in their Lazy-boy seats of judgement. And yet...expending an inordinate amount of time ferreting out "wickedness." That pitchfork and torch are mighty heavy.
Smile a little more. Have some fun. Make a joyful noise.
Not once in my ten plus years of commenting online have I ever posted the word "wickedness" in any phrase concerning any subject. Not my word, that's your word, Lulu, and whomever you choose to pass your time with is no concern to me.
I neither wring my hands nor make any claims to having led a saintly life, that's your stone to toss and not mine. Other than having quoted the opinion of Jesus concerning his view of pedophiles and what should be their fate (of which I am in most solid of agreement) I have never over the course of my entire lifetime ever quoted chapter nor verse verbally or in writing from any book of religion.

WASHINGTON - National Geographic Kids has achieved another feat for the records books: collecting 16,407 shoes to be recycled.
An official from the Guinness World Records confirmed Tuesday the pile of donated, used sneakers outside National Geographic headquarters on 17th Street NW is the largest collection of shoes to be recycled.
The shoes paved the front courtyard creating a smelly, colorful carpet that took a few interns a lot of willpower and plenty of plastic gloves to create.
"Recycling and exercise can be fun for you," says magazine editor Rachel Buchholz.
Their mission accomplished, the shoes will be ground up and turned into a material that will be used to build athletic surfaces like basketball courts, playgrounds and running tracks.
Old sneakers poured in from National Geographic readers, scout troops and schools. Taylor Swift, Danica Patrick and Eli Manning all donated shoes, according to the magazine.
Guinness official Mike Janela called it a new world record "feat."
The magazine also brought together the most people to run the 100-meter dash in 24 hours at multiple venues, Janela says.
More than 30,000 people ran the 100 meters on October 26, 2012, the magazine says.
Janela says the magazine now holds seven Guinness records. The other five are:
- most people to do jumping jacks in 24 hours, multiple locations
- the longest line of foot prints
- the longest chain of shoes
- the largest gathering of plush toys/stuffed animals
- the largest collection of clothes to be recycled

2014 HB HPI Challenge Series, Round #6 at HPI USA,
Foothill Ranch, CA, Saturday, May 10,
The sixth and final round of the 2014 HB HPI Challenge Series took place on May 10th at the HPI USA Headquarters. This would mark the third time the series visited the Foothill Ranch, California office. Six racers would be crowned 2014 HB HPI Challenge Series Champion under the sunny Southern California skies. By 7:00 AM, racers had already turned out from all over So Cal ready for a fun day of racing. Definitely what you would expect from attending a HB HPI Challenge event!
With practice underway, racers had a chance to roam around the pit area and stop by the HB booth to check out the new releases. While scoping out the awesome kits and raffle prizes, two full-size Subaru Impreza STI race cars were brought out for display for everyone to enjoy. Both Super Taikyu Spec Imprezas raced in Japan! It was time for the driver's meeting and HB HPI Concours Challenge. Bill DuBois claimed the victory and took home a collectible Falken Tire bobble head doll for his efforts on his HB Subaru Impreza Type B body. After the final group photo of the series, it was on to see who would take the pole position in their respective class.
A film crew from one of the largest Spanish networks in Southern California Univision 34 was on hand to capture some action. Racers did not disappoint for the cameras, as they laid down fast times in both rounds of qualifying. Top qualifiers for the Season Finale were Christopher Rodriguez (Electric Sport), Chris Cabrales (Electric Pro), Thad Garner (Electric Open & Rallycross), Todd Marshall (Nitro Sport) and Jack DeAnda (Nitro Pro). With the field set, it was on to the main events. The points champion in Electric Pro and Rallycross was still unclear coming into Round 6, so the A-Mains were going to be thrilling.
In Electric Sport, the Championship already belonged to Christopher Rodriguez. Rodriguez had won every round so far in the series. Eight year-old Jacob Dee started third and challenged Rodriguez in the first minute. After getting around Rodriguez, it appeared Dee would be on his way to his first victory in the series! Rodriguez would not have a perfect season, as his motor did not endure the entire six-minute main giving Jacob Dee the victory. Jeremy Dee, Jacob's father, would go on to finish second. The point's race in Electric Pro was very close. Chin Luc, Charlie Barnes and Cody Secara were all in hunt to take home the Championship plaque. The spoiler of the Electric Pro class would be Chris Cabrales who would take the TQ and the win with his HB TCXX. Cabrales' victory left Secara to finish second with 99 points and Luc finishing third with 98 points. After tallying the points, Cody Secara and Chin Luc would be Co-Champions in 2014! In Electric Open, Mark Dawson locked up the point's championship after finishing second to HPI R&D's Thad Garner in the A-Main. Since Garner is not eligible for points, HB Infantry Team Driver Jarrod Kadonaga would rack up 99 points for second place. Kadonaga worked hard all season long with his HB TCXX and ties with fellow Infantry Team Driver Carlos Franco for second overall in the series! Finishing third overall in points would be Charlie Barnes. In the Nitro classes, we would see longtime HB HPI Challenge competitors Todd Marshall and Nestor Rinonos take home Nitro Sport and Nitro Pro titles respectively. Marshall would take the overall win on Saturday as Nitro Sport and Nitro Pro mixed together for an exciting main. Rinonos would battle lap after lap trying to catch Marshall but would finish second overall on the day. The chase for the 2014 HB HPI Rallycross Champion would go down to the final minutes. Frank Liu and Jerry Holsti would go head to head for the title. Holsti earned 100 points on Saturday, just enough to edge out Frank Liu for the Rallycross title!
The 2014 HB HPI Challenge brought an on-road series to Southern California that beginners and experts alike could enjoy. We would like to thank all of the racers, race directors and track owners that helped the series succeed!

WASHINGTON - In an effort to engage with its customers, Metro will hold three public meetings this week to get feedback on strategies for improving service.
Officials will discuss Metro's new plan, termed "Momentum." Expanding certain stations, easing pedestrian transfers between stations and developing better communication services are some of the issues that will be discussed during the sessions.
Metro says it believes it can address all of its proposals without increasing fares.
Public meetings will be held:
