What the FED decide to do today?
The Federal Reserve took the step of initiating a new policy to try and help that push down longer-term yields. It will buy $400 billion of bonds with maturities of 6 to 30 years through June while selling an equal amount of debt maturing in 3 years or less. That figure came in right in the middle of expectations, and it's about three-quarters of all the shorter-term debt that the Fed has on its balance sheet.
This policy, which has been dubbed "Operation Twist", tries to accomplish a lot of the things quantitative easing does but without the need to print more money, or expand the fed's balance sheets, therefore in principle it doesn't stoke inflation as much. we had the same three dissenters from last meeting voting against the policy.
What Else? Lowered Outlook.
Fed also acknowledged that "there are significant downside risks to the economic outlook, including strains in global financial markets." While the Fed took action with this policy it did not take any extra measures beyond "Operation Twist" – such as lowering the interest paid to banks to hold money at the fed – the interest on excess reserves – or make any commitments regarding holding its balance sheet steady through 2013.
Will "Operation Twist" Help?
In essence the market got a lot of what it anticipated, but the reaction was very sharp and favored the US dollar. Perhaps the market sees that despite this move the impact on the economy may be minimal. Early attempts at quantitative easing did not help push down the persistently high unemployment rate and the US is still suffering with a weak labor market. Those woes will not necessarily be helped because borrowing costs are bit cheaper. Lower borrowing costs are stimulative that they help the housing market through lower mortgage rates that make it more affordable for businesses to borrow in order to invest. But, we have seen the US 10-year yield falling to record lows recently and therefore we'll see how much further they can fall with the help of the Fed.
Why did the US Dollar Gain Following What is More Accommodative Policy?
That's a good question and the difference lies in the fact that with true quantitative easing you are expanding the central bank's balance sheet or printing money, while here you're simply shifting around the current portfolio and changing its composition to have more longer dated maturities. Therefore it shouldn't carry the same diluting effects on currency.
We also had a generally risk off session today starting in Europe and continuing in the US as three large banks were downgraded cooling investor sentiment. Today's Fed decision, while helping out on the margins, not in of itself going to be able to resuscitate a recovery that was battered by various headwinds during the first half of the year.
The uncertainty around global growth is causing commodity currencies to be sold off, and that was very apparent in today's session as we had the Canadian Dollar test parity against the greenback and the New Zealand dollar through the 0.8115 support.
What's Next for the Markets?
The attention most likely now returns to the European continent, and whether Greece will be able to finally secure its next installment of aid from the EU/IMF. The Greek government said that it would accelerate cuts to wages and pensions today which should be enough to secure it the next tranche of aid and keep the country from a default scenario for at least another quarter. If we do have a resolution there it could be a positive for the euro and risk sentiment, however the spate of downgrades – to sovereign such as Italy and banks such as US and French banks – will continue to take a toll on investor sentiment. The outlook for weak growth in the US and in the euro zone will also lessen expectations for the global recovery, which will have an impact on the higher-yielding commodity linked currencies.
The "risk off" route seems to be the path of least resistance, and today's decision from the FOMC is not likely to change that general direction. To get to a more "risk-on" mode we would have to have governments coming together to bolster global growth, or countries pare back some austerity measures for the sake of short-term growth, or central banks continue to use intervention tools. It will take some stronger measures to get the world economy and financial markets out of the recent funk of this summer.
We'll have to continue to monitor the data and see how equity markets progress as we move to the end of September and into the 4th quarter.

Many current and retired state employees want to know why North Carolina's pension fund used a firm that invested in Facebook stock.
The News & Observer of Raleigh reports 618,000 shares the state currently has in the social media company are now worth just half of the $38 dollars per share paid.
This is after Facebook's initial public offering in May.
A spokeswoman for State Treasurer Janet Cowell told the paper that the Facebook stock made up less than a tenth of one percent of the pension fund's global stock portfolio.
Cowell's Republican rival in the November election, Steve Royal said a company like Facebook is not an appropriate investment for a state pension fund.

165 The LEFT Show – XXXMas Eve Swallow!
Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house
the killer was killing, even the mouse
He scattered the bodies by the chimney with flare
not knowing who'd find them, not seeming to care
Then what to his demented eyes should appear
some fat guy with what looked like real tiny deer
He snuck up and wacked the guy in the suit
and loaded his van with all the new loot
He drove away singing with the radio in unison
wondering how to cook all this venison
JM Bell, Janneke House, Bob Henline, and Forrest Shaw ARE the reason for the season!

Dueling porn-staches
Posted By Jeff Fletcher on April 9, 2011 11:26 pm
It's late on a Saturday night, when no one is reading my blog anyway, so I couldn't resist.
Which is worse?
4 Responses to "Dueling porn-staches"
Jeff, you under estimate your readership! You'd figure $126 million would buy a better 'stache!
(Side note: I hope this doesn't make me one of the people Gary Radnich rants on, a person who's up past midnight writing an email to belittle someone..but I mean c'mon Barry, a man's got to know his limits)
I was not aware of your live chat. Please alert me for the next occasion. Regarding the mustache: Zito's is as bad as her performance as a pitcher.
Keep up the good work. I appreciate your perspective. Go Giants!
Off the point: why in the heck they still keep Zito? Sabean needs to count his losses and get rid of him.
Worse as in better? Definitely zito. He has the age to pull it off, the jays player looks like a junior in high school trying to impress some cheerleader.

Vehicle Interior Damage Caused By An Air Freshener? Oh Yes...It's True.
Posted by
Flexanimous Fellow
I couldn't make this a complaint against Air Wick because admittedly, the wrapper on the Air Wick car freshener I purchased a few days ago does state to not let the air freshener come in contact with your dashboard. I just didn't read it until after the fact...go figure.
I have enough things hanging from the rear view mirror, so I hung the car freshener on one of the music adjustment knobs and thought nothing of it. It wasn't until today that I noticed it caused a plastic part of my vehicle's interior to shrivel up and look somewhat like a burn mark.
It's even in the shape of the leaf!! Kind of cute, huh?
Beware!! Read the directions on everything!
At least my car smells nice =D

Flexanimous Fellow: Good review.
Admin: Please get a handle on these ridiculous picture sizes that screw up the format!
Venice09 on 09/13/2010:
There's another product that completely ruins dashboards. I've read a lot of complaints about it, but I don't remember the name. It as oil in it that leaks.
I'm surprised the product in the picture did so much damage. It looks harmless. Good advice about always reading directions.
MRM on 09/13/2010:
Thank you, Flex, for alerting your readers about this innocent looking freshner!
Anonymous on 09/13/2010:
What a horribly expensive lesson to learn. Thanks for the warning, Flex.
rockfishing on 09/13/2010:
I wonder what that stuff does to your lungs. Anything that eats your dashboard can't be good.
Anonymous on 09/13/2010:
True, rock! I never use air fresheners that aren't made of natural substances for that very reason!

Those car deodorizers that look like pine trees can do this as well.
Anonymous on 09/13/2010:
I have always used the canned scents or the "pine trees" but would never have them come in contact with the upohlstery of the car or where they would be in direct contact with sunlight.
Thanks for the warning.

I use dryer sheets as an air freshener for my car
Anonymous on 09/13/2010:
That is a good idea. By the air vents on the floor I presume?
CrazyRedHead on 09/13/2010:
I know that the size can be a bit annoying, especially when it does mess up the format, but I think this picture does what the op is saying justice. It shows in good detail the problem. Either that or I'm just getting old and blind.
Also having a lot of stuff hanging from your rear view mirror is considered a distraction.
momsey on 09/13/2010:
Same thing happened to our fairly new truck, when my husband put one of the tree air fresheners leaning against a plastic part of the car. Makes me mad every time I see it. But I'm mad at my husband, not really at the company that made the air freshener. I know it's just chemicals and he should have known better!
yaya, my mom used to do the same thing.
MRM on 09/13/2010:
Putting a freshner in trucks or Jeeps is not very manly at all.

LOL, MRM. It's not really a truck, it's a Ford Escape Hybrid. Can't say that's a very manly car.

Okay, momsey, that's a good reason. But, when my kids were young and we had our golden retriever in the car (who always smelled), we still didn't use one. I never even though of it. No wonder no one wanted to ride in our car, lol.

In AZ, the heat can also make the inside of your car smell weird
Lifemates on 09/13/2010:
That picture really gets the point across. It makes me wounder what kind of chemicals they put in that thing to begin with. I mean if it can cause such damage to the car, do you really want to be breathing that stuff in. It might make the car smell good but what about health. It must have some really nasty stuff in there and consumers are breathing it in each time that they enter their car.
Venice09 on 09/13/2010:
Sing, smoking is not allowed in my car or house either. Once that smell gets into things, you never get rid of it.
I have never used air freshener, but I understand why people do. My son doesn't smoke but his car has a mixture of smells that I can't even identify. A forest of Little Trees wouldn't even make a dent!
Skye on 09/13/2010:
Years ago, I hung a seashell air freshener in my car, on the door handle, and it also left a seashell pattern on the door panel. I always thought it happened from the heat and humidity of Long Island.
Good review.
ok4now on 09/13/2010:
Who actually reads the warning label on an air freshener? I would have done the same thing and just hung it up. Good Review.
papajoe on 09/14/2010:
rockfish makes a good point by wondering what it does to your lungs. The molecular structure of plastic and human tissue are fairly close. Don't believe me? - ask a chemist.

I'm glad I stuck to my motto by saying that putting air freshners in trucks and Jeeps is not very manly!

Yes, MRM, stick to your convictions! And, as a bonus, you also won't damage your lungs.

Manly men also smell, especially when doing manly things. Old Spice, baby!

LOL! For those who don't know why anyone would need an airfreshener in their car, just take a ride with my son when he has his hockey gear loaded in it.

Hi I just presently purchased the Air Wick car plug in to the air vents and the same happened started to leak and burnt all dash they clearly picture were to fix too, so they should have more warnings as I definitely wouldn't of bought this due to mess it has made. :-(
Vickie on 05/25/2013:
I had the same issue in my new car except I had it attached to the air vents as stated, it leaked out and ruined the buttons on my CD changer. I am so angry that I plan on posting this everywhere I can...
MrsGekko on 08/12/2013:
Have just experienced this with my car, have sent estimate to manufacturer of air freshener, will let you know if they will pay for the damage. Nothing on the packaging to say it could cause any damage.

For the record, it was not some bystanders that pulled the woman off the cliff face, it was 2 Eastern Health Paramedics, and 2 RNC officers.
And 1 very heroic bystander that held onto her for over 20 minutes while help arrived.
The fire department had not made it to the scene yet.
- July 20, 2010 - 13:02
Typical journalism. The fire department arrives once the choas is under control by other safety/emergency officials, and they may have to respond to a couple of serious fires a year and tear a few vehicles apart at accident scenes, and they are forever the Invincible Heros. However, the police respond sometimes to over a hundred calls a day, regularly deal with the worst of humanity putting their lives at risk every minute they are on patrol, and they never even get a mention. Not to mention the life and death decisions the EMT's have to make in just a split second.
I'm not saying the Men and Women of our Fire Departments don't do a wonderful job and put their lives at risk for others as well, but they are not the only ones! Thank-you to the police and all other emergency responders that selflessly help people every day.

i guess that eastern health must have got the call first, or maybe they just happened to be in the area? Thanks to those that rescued that woman, maybe next time the same crew will use a homemade device to do it or thay could just wait thill those properly trained arrive.

Newfoundland is the 16th largest island in the world and we still have people hanging on by their fingernails.

JT, some very valid points. however, i;m sure that the RNC and HSC paramedics neither had the proper equipment, and traing to handle such an incident, if athe individual did happen to slip further or her condition became more severe. Maybe if they looked after ccrowd control and limited the access to the scene response times would be faster. as for fires and TEARING cars apart, maybe eastern health should get a fire dept, we all know that they cant handle what they have now, maybe that would be a better avenue for them to take.
Invincible hero's --- the split second decisions they make, may just put themselves and others at harm.

Maze Procedure—Open Surgery
(Cox Maze)
Maze is a surgical procedure for the heart. A maze-like pattern of incisions is made in the upper chambers of the heart. The chambers are called the atria.
Maze Procedure
Reasons for Procedure
Maze is done to treat atrial fibrillation. Fibrillation is abnormal beating of the heart muscle. It is caused by erratic electrical impulses that travel through the heart muscle. These impulses can cause the chambers to beat too fast. This can decrease blood flow through the heart. Atrial fibrillation can also cause blood clots to form in the heart that can travel to the brain and cause a stroke.
Maze is used to treat severe cases that did not respond to medicine or other procedures. Electrical impulses cannot flow through scar tissue. By creating specific patterns of scar tissue, maze surgery creates a pathway for healthy impulses and blocks erratic impulses.
Possible Complications
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely free of risk. If you are planning to have this procedure, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
- Infection
- Bleeding
- Anesthesia-related problems
- The need for a permanent pacemaker
- Kidney or other organ failure
- Stroke
- Death
Before your procedure, talk to your doctor about ways to manage factors that may increase your risk of complications such as:
- Smoking
- Drinking
- Chronic disease such as diabetes or obesity
- The use of certain medications
What to Expect
Prior to Procedure
Your doctor may do the following:
- Physical exam, including blood and urine tests
- Chest x-ray —makes pictures of structures inside the chest using a small amount of radiation
- Electrocardiogram (ECG, EKG)—a test that records the heart's activity by measuring electrical currents through the heart muscle
In the days leading up to the procedure:
Talk to your doctor about your medicines, including over-the-counter medicines. You may be asked to stop taking some medicines up to one week before the procedure, like:
- Anti-inflammatory drugs (eg, aspirin )
- Blood thinners, such as clopidogrel (Plavix), warfarin (Coumadin), or ticlopidine (Ticlid)
- Arrange for someone to drive you home from the hospital. Also, have someone help you at home.
- Eat a light meal the night before. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight.
- If you smoke, it is best to stop.
General anesthesia will be used. You will be asleep during the surgery. You may also be given a sedative before surgery to help you relax.
Description of the Procedure
After you are asleep, the doctor will cut through the skin and breastbone. The chest cavity will be opened. Next, the heart will be connected to the heart-lung machine. This machine will take over the functions of the heart and lungs during surgery. Once the machine is active, the heart will be stopped.
A series of small cuts will be made in the atria. The cuts will be made in a maze-like pattern to direct the electrical impulses. The incisions will then be closed with sutures. In some cases, a pacemaker may need to be placed.
Once the maze-like pattern has been completed, the heart will be restarted. When the heart is working well, you will be removed from the heart-lung machine. The chest will be closed with wires. Finally, the skin will be closed with sutures.
Immediately After Procedure
Your recovery will be monitored in the intensive care unit. Your heart's activity will be recorded by EKG. Pain medicine will be given to help you rest comfortably.
How Much Will It Hurt?
Anesthesia prevents pain during surgery and early recovery. Your chest will be very sore. You may have a pain pump with IV medicine for the first few days. Your doctor will recommend other medicine to help manage soreness later in recovery.
Post-procedure Care
At the Hospital
While you are recovering at the hospital, you may receive the following care:
- Fluids and pain medicine will be given through an IV line. You may be given medicine to help control build up of fluids.
- Efforts will be made to get you out of bed and walking as soon as possible.
- You will be asked to do deep breathing and coughing exercises. This will help reduce the risk of fluid build up in your lungs.
- If a pacemaker was placed, you will be given instruction on its care.
During your stay, the hospital staff will take steps to reduce your chance of infection such as:
- Washing their hands
- Wearing gloves or masks
- Keeping your incisions covered
There are also steps you can take to reduce your chances of infection such as:
- Washing your hands often and reminding visitors and healthcare providers to do the same
- Reminding your healthcare providers to wear gloves or masks
- Not allowing others to touch your incisions
At Home
It can take up to six months to fully recover. Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions, which may include:
- Rest when needed. At first, it is normal to feel more tired than usual.
- Walk daily. Activity will help with the healing process.
- Take the pain medicine as directed. Some pain medicine causes constipation. To prevent this, drink plenty of fluids and eat high-fiber foods.
- Keep the incision area clean and dry.
- Limit certain activities (eg, driving, working, doing strenuous exercise) until you have recovered.
Ask your doctor about when it is safe to shower, bathe, or soak in water.
Call Your Doctor
After you leave the hospital, call your doctor if any of the following occurs:
- Cough or shortness of breath
- New chest pain
- Signs of infection, including fever and chills
- Palpitations or rapid heart rate
- Redness, swelling, increasing pain, excessive bleeding, or discharge from the incision site
- Nausea and/or vomiting that you cannot control with the medicines you were given after surgery, or which persist for more than two days after discharge from the hospital
- Pain that you cannot control with the medicines you have been given
- Coughing up blood
- Headache or feeling faint
- Inability to urinate
- Pain, burning, urgency, frequency of urination, or persistent bleeding in the urine
- Pain and/or swelling in your feet, calves, or legs
- Other worrisome symptoms
Call for medical help or go to the emergency room right away if any of the following occurs:
- Sudden chest pain
- Sudden shortness of breath
- Problems with vision or speaking
- Numbness or weakness on one side of your body
If you think you have an emergency, call for medical help right away.

terrible game….
can't do it
first time i was super paranoid and upgraded everything and beat the mail whale in 5 seconds
how do you get a railgun?!
59:46!!! :)
awesome game!!! beat it in 56:24
I have bought every item in the game and I have 91 pearls and can;t do anything with them.. :'(
Beat it in 101:39 :p
Got 59:46 Pearl Farms help ALOT
I got all the mail in 119:24.
I beat it in 33:06
The game is epicly awesome. The only problem is that you don't get update points for mining the sea bed.
What I do is just make a mine of pearls and basically live there. ALWAYS MAKE YOUR ENTRANCES/EXITS UP, NOT SIDEWAYS OR ELSE MONSTERS WILL GET IN.
Tip: a way to get ex. points is make a diagonal space too tiny for you to get out or in, but just right for shooting monsters outside.
best game!!!!
Upgrade the mining laser all the way and use it to push the mail whale into rocks and such.:)
took me an hour and ten minutes
62:52! :-)
i beat it in 88:52
I failed! :-D
Its an awesome game I played it 7 or 8 times already
I know it is sooo awesome it takes like 30 mins to beat but drilling into the rock and making passages with the laser is sooo much fun
Hello finished in 19:07 on 5th time of playing. Best game ever!
Tip: Get the rivet gun. It is THE best gin in the game, its practically a minigun,
I finished in 135:06! I made sure to get everything and upgrade all weapons before facing the Mail Whale. I ended up finishing him in about 30 secs.
Awesome game
all u need is mining laser and ping-ping sonar. upgrade things like multi-spear damage done ricochet and rate of fire on spear to kill EVERYTHING! its SO EASY just remember to BE BOLD. then u can do wever u want with monsters that r MUCH HARDER after finishing the game!
beat it in 58:51.
I won it twise
it took me 217:06.
I finished it. great game. took me an hour and fifteen minutes though
this game gets really boring after a while
it is cool
Couldn't they make more levels
how do you make a pearl farm?
eat lots of pizza and lasanga
Okay guys. Here's a tip: When you re-start the game first weapon you need is a mining laser. Then make an underground home with a pearl farm. That way only tiny monsters can get to you. Be sure to make a home because you'll need to rest to restore hearts. Make sure to make a pearl farm so you can get pearls for the items. Then buy everything else. Train your weapons until they have at least 3 of everything. Then go defeat the mail whale once you have enough mail. Hope this helps you

i can't get past level two boss. so harrrrrrd?????
love it :)
use pedro and flutterguy, that makes it easy-peasy to defeat tractor-beamer
makes it easy to get them for me by using dredd who is great.
All levels are too easy I beat them like a snap.
All else are too easy. Last isn't too bad but still it's easy.
wht do you use for sticky swamp
To defeat the corkscrew you need to hop up the gray steps and attack the blue thing! :)
I can beat the first 4 levels in under 1:15 each!
The bosses are dead in less than 40 sec. each
Tricky but fun!!!
Easy :-)
I used to hate dredd but he is pretty good with all up grades
this is the easyest bl game evr. finished in 20 minutes
i sharply disagree
how do you make that face
totally&virtually indestructable with flutterguy
Dredd Speed at a high enough level is awesome with flutter guy. I would fail as anyone else.
it just flies around you, and nothing happens when it gets hit with something.
he gives you lives after a while
It IS possible. I've finished it. :D
finaly done
peewee is good with flutterguy in water
I don't get it
what wall?
amazing game cool!
good plan
the laser is wierd and he isn't "airborn" long
Yeah unless you get all upgrades on him.
I finished the game with dredd for every level.
peewee is awesome :P
Awesome, but pretty hard. HOW DO YOU USE BLOCKATEIL?!?!
dunno i think when fully charged vaporises bullets within a certain radius
no clue!
IMPOSSIBLE!!! How do the baddies spawn back after you kill them and play the level again??
hard i say hard
Dred speed is the bomb! He can fly, shoot a laser and plus when you collect his upgrades he is unbeatable! especially with flutterguy!
ok first u r correct on flutterguy but i dissagree with your opinion on dredd
I agree.
it was hard :(
I know ! I cant defeat the robot!!!!!!!!!
PS: how do you do it?
It's easiest with Dredd Speed and Flutterguy.

The boss's weaknesses;
Lvl 1 shoot the claw
Lvl 2 the blue disc on top
lvl 3 jump on the red button and shoot the emitter
4 none , just spam
5 none
for 4th boss, shoot the treads
on the 5th there is no protected spot
What button?!? I don't see a button anywhere!!! (By the way, what's an emitter?)
how do you use blockatiel?
I think when he eats A LOT!!!!!!!!!! of bullets he vaporizaes bullets

The Game Master

Drillbaby is so fun!! You shoot him right before he causes the ground to shake P.S. use mag-boots
what is a mag-boot
how do you get to the key
How do you get Speedy Delivery, Minimalism and Peaceful Pedro?
This is better than the first already. Im on the the first level is there anything hard coming up hard?
To beat the battle bat, first go into the cave, get the swimming lessons, ovoid the jellyfish and get the bomb power, then go into the bat cave. See if you can track him down.
Here's a pretty good tip on how to beat Obtuse angler: Look for his weak spot.
Ps. I got Pedro's great escape, back at ya, and undersea operation for acheivements.
done with the whole game ask me anything
i got evrything but were is the gold door?
How do you beat the battle bat?It is so hard :|
You need to get the exploding mail upgrade from the Flooded Depths. Then fire away! Enjoy!
The Game Master
to beat battle bat, go into crystal caverns, get swimming lessons, go into flooded depths, get bomb letter power, then go into bat cave
To get time on your hands you need to get 50 chronox shards. Thats the only one I know right now
Game Master or any one who knows this,
how do you get;

…and..dear jellyfish
super combo is defeat 5 enemies without touching the ground,time on your hands is get all charnox shards,yay explosions is BLOW UP ALL THE RED BOXES!!!YAY!!and dear jelly fish is defeat/kill a jelly fishh with letters,not harpoons.
Time on your hands:find 50 shards
Yay explosions:blow everything up

No! Xenocide is killing everything. Super Combo is killing three or more enemies without touching the ground. The easiest place to get Super Combo is the tunnel down at the very bottom, use magnet boots to hold onto the ceiling, shoot your enemies without going on the ground and you will get the award. Happy shooting!

December 22, 2014
NEW YORK (AP) - No love for Uggs: Shares of the sheepskin boots maker, Deckers Outdoor Corp., are tumbling Friday because consumers have turned away just before the start of the holiday shopping season. The company on Thursday slashed its outlook for the rest of the year after its third-quarter profit dropped 31 percent.
It's blaming two years of price increases for turning shoppers off Uggs, which have been perennial holiday best-sellers, and mild weather this year. In an effort to lure back shoppers, Deckers says it's going to roll back prices on some Uggs styles in the U.S. But some analysts are even more pessimistic than the company, and don't think colder weather this winter will drive up sales. Shares of Deckers, based in Goleta, Calif., are down 16 percent this morning.

Long ago I wished to leave
"The house where I was born;"
Long ago I used to grieve,
My home seemed so forlorn.
In other years, its silent rooms
Were filled with haunting fears;
Now, their very memory comes
O'ercharged with tender tears.
Life and marriage I have known.
Things once deemed so bright;
Now, how utterly is flown
Every ray of light!
'Mid the unknown sea, of life
I no blest isle have found;
At last, through all its wild wave's strife,
My bark is homeward bound.
Farewell, dark and rolling deep!
Farewell, foreign shore!
Open, in unclouded sweep,
Thou glorious realm before!
Yet, though I had safely pass'd
That weary, vexed main,
One loved voice, through surge and blast
Could call me back again.
Though the soul's bright morning rose
O'er Paradise for me,
William! even from Heaven's repose
I'd turn, invoked by thee!
Storm nor surge should e'er arrest
My soul, exalting then:
All my heaven was once thy breast,
Would it were mine again!

Question: I just saw a direct-to-video movie called Havoc that was dedicated to Jessica Kaplan (1979-2003). Who was she and why is the movie dedicated to her?
Answer: When Los Angeles-born Jessica Kaplan was a 17-year-old high-school student at Santa Monica's famous Crossroads School, she sold a screenplay called The Powers that Be — about privileged white California kids who were into gangbanging ghetto culture until they run into the real thing — to New Line Cinema for a cool $150,000. This happened a full three years before 13-year-old Nikki Reed wrote a screenplay called Thirteen about her experiences as a wayward child of privilege, but Reed got far more publicity because her script was quickly produced and she costarred in the movie. Kaplan's screenplay wound up mired for years in development hell as successive waves of hot young things were talked about for the lead roles, but Kaplan herself embarked on what looked to be a genuinely promising career, penning original scripts for The Dancer (2000), produced by prolific French filmmaker Luc Besson, and the unproduced The Way Out, and adapting The Basic Eight, a novel about delinquent teenagers at a tony San Francisco public school, for New Regency Cinema. Basic Eight remains unproduced to date, but it was Daniel Handler's first novel, Handler being the real name behind best-selling children's book author "Lemony Snicket." As you may have guessed by now, The Powers that Be eventually became Havoc, after getting a total rewrite from then-unknown screenwriter Stephen Gaghan, who went on to win an Oscar for scripting Steven Soderbergh's Traffic and just wrote and directed the geopolitical thriller Syriana (2005). If you read Havoc's opening credits, you'll see that while the screenplay is credited solely to Gaghan, there's a story credit for Gaghan and Kaplan.
Kaplan died in a widely reported accident in 2003: She was aboard a single-engine plane that spiraled out of the sky over Los Angeles' Fairfax district, crashing into an apartment complex on the way down and setting the building on fire. All five passengers died and several people on the ground were injured. The plane's pilot was Kaplan's uncle, and she was on her way to her family's second home in Idaho. Havoc went into production a few months after Kaplan's death, directed by internationally acclaimed documentarian Barbara Kopple. In addition to being memorialized at the end of the film, Kaplan's name was given to a segment of the American Film Institute's ongoing directing workshop for women.

NRCS Texas announces sign-up for new Conservation Stewardship Program
TEMPLE - Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) state conservationist for Texas, Don Gohmert recently announced a sign-up for the new Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) to assist agricultural producers.
CSP is a new program authorized in the 2008 Farm Bill that encourages agricultural producers to maintain existing conservation activities and adopt additional practices on their operations. It is designed to financially reward the best of the best in agricultural conservation.
"Farmers and ranchers actively engaged in conservation land stewardship have the opportunity to earn conservation rewards through CSP," Gohmert said.
"This program gives conservation-minded producers the ability to apply and build on their current stewardship efforts."
CSP is a five year program which offers continuous sign-up, but all eligible applicants who sign up on or before September 30, 2009, will be ranked as a group in October and November. A second ranking of subsequent applications will likely take place again in January or February.
Eligible lands include cropland, grassland, improved pastureland and rangeland.
Gohmert noted only top land stewards will be awarded contracts for CSP and receive funding.
To apply for CSP, applicants are encouraged to use a self-screening checklist first to determine whether the new program is suitable for them or their operation. It is available on the NRCS Texas Web site at www.tx.nrcs.usda.gov and at local NRCS field offices.
To learn more about CSP or how your land could qualify for CSP, please visit your local NRCS office at the USDA Service Center in your area.
In Ellis County, contact the NRCS office in Waxahachie at 1822 FM 66 Suite 101 or call (972) 937-2660 x3.

Now playing: Telefon Tel Aviv – I Lied
FYI: If you (or someone close to you) happened to maybe, possibly, hopefully want a signed copy of A Life Transparent, you've now got until next Friday to order one.
Right. It's been another long week, even if it was technically only a four-day work week, what with the holiday on Monday. I've got to admit that I'm beat this week. As a matter of fact, I intended to post this entry a lot earlier today, but once I got home, had dinner and relaxed for a bit, I honestly couldn't be bothered. But now it's almost midnight, almost not Friday anymore, and I figure I can crank this thing out in less than an hour, so here goes.

ALBANY COUNTY, N.Y. -- Albany County Executive Daniel McCoy has vetoed the proposed pawn shop law known as "Local Law G."
The proposed law has been the center of controversy among business owners. It would have required pawn shops to create an electronic registry of all the items a store receives as a means of recovering stolen goods that may be pawned. Shop owners would also have to report a seller's name, and would hold goods for a set length of time. McCoy commended the legislators for bringing the issue to the forefront of public discussion, but said, "While the intention of Local Law G of 2012 is good, it would place an undue burden on businesses, causing a hardship to them and creating issues for law enforcement in collecting this information."

Samsung's new BD-P1600
serves up way more than the full HD 1080p video and 7.1-channel
surround sound for which Blu-ray Disc is known. The combination of
Wi-Fi readiness (with separate Wi-Fi dongle) and an ethernet port make
it possible to connect the BD-P3100 to your home internet network. From
there, the possibilities are astounding. Thanks to Netflix and Pandora
readiness, you can stream internet movies and music and send them
straight to your HDTV (a Netflix membership is required for some
services). Further, BD Profile 2.0 capability (also known as BD Live)
gives you the ability to discover on-line extras for many of your
favorite Blu-ray movies.
you haven't heard of Blu-ray Disc before, here's a quick crash course.
DVD technology uses a wide red laser to record movies onto the disc.
Blu-ray Disc, on the other hand, uses a narrower blue-violet laser to
do its encoding. Consequently, a dramatically larger amount of
information can be recorded in the same space. In fact, a Blu-ray disc
can store over five times the information of a DVD. This makes it
possible for both full high definition 1920 x 1080p video and HD
7.1-channel audio to be stored on a single disc. And that's just the
beginning. There's also plenty of room left over for special features
and behind-the-scenes extras. Samsung's BD-P1600 not only supports a
variety of Blu-ray formats, but also gives you the ability to play back
DVDs and CDs, as well as audio and images recorded using formats such
as MP3, and JPEG.
Samsung's BD-P1600 features built-in decoding technology for a variety

10 Movie Rockets More Kick-Ass Than The Fireworks You Saw Last NightCinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on July 5, 2012 | Comments (2)
There's nothing more American than cylindrical projectiles. After all – fireworks are loud, volatile, and smell like ash – much like us. While the whole exploding part is pretty gosh darn boss, really the true wonder comes from the pure act of launching something as goddamn far as we possibly can into the air. We like to know that we can conquer all three dimensions. So in the spirit of good ol' American propulsion lust, here are some of the more excellent tubes that movies have shot into the sky.

Pine tar on the hand = Asterisk in the record books
Case and Point.
Apparently, I am not the only one with suspicions about the hat.
Petition for an investigation of Kenny "The Gambler" Rogers
Below you will see something I posted in and ALCS blog. This comment referred to Game 3 of the ALCS, Oakland vs. Detroit.
The pictures all over the internet will display a substance on his left hand during the ALDS, ALCS, and now the World Series. This is a travesty, and MLB will have to investigate this in order to save the integrity of the game.
I think we should petition to analyze Kenny Rogers' hat. Why is he allowed to wear a different hat?
The underside of his hat brim is a dark color instead of the standard white/gray of major league hats.
The only reason I can see for a hat with those characteristics is to hide the substance on the underside of the brim and more importantly Kenny's fingers.
Like the great Lou Piniella mentioned during the tv broadcast, some pitchers would do/use anything for their fingers in cold weather (ex. pine tar).
