I was rummaging around in my virtual attic and I found this dusty old blog. It looks like someone just forgot about it and left it lying around. What a shame.
I really had the best intentions about wrapping up She's Right with a series of posts about things I wanted to post before I officially closed the blog, but as my 11th grade World History teacher once said to me, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. (Yeah, I did hate her.)
The problem was, once I decided that I was done with this blog, I was done with it. I could not make myself post on it. I have quite a few posts in draft, but I just couldn't finish anything.
I does seem that I need to do something. This blog was so important to me for so long. It deserves better than this. Besides, I have something that I should share with you that I think you might find interesting.
Check back the rest of this week for some parting thoughts and some good news about where else you can find me. There is life after political blogging. Really.
That would make a fun feature. Here's today's entry: "We have come to the point where the right wing in America simply denies the legitimacy of any election in which the Democratic candidate wins."
I kid you not. Someone honestly made that statement after 8 years of "He's not my President" and "stolen" election BS from the left.
Laugh out loud, or bang your head against a wall. Take your pick.
So, yes, I am still around. I know I never gave this blog a proper send off, still a few loose ends to tie up. It is still on my to-do list. With the arrival of the school year, my life will take on a more predictable routine. And, with school work dominating the day, the kids will be happy to be rid of my company come afternoon. So, I hope to get it to the top of the list very soon.
I have continued to resit the urge to blog about the political topics of the day for lack of anything nice to say, but I couldn't resist posting that quote above. It was too rich.
Once Bill Simmon said, on his local radio program, Poli-Sci-Fi Radio, that I was "spectacularly wrong." I loved that quote so much, it earned a place of honor at the top of my "What people are saying about She's Right" section in the side bar.
What exactly was I spectacularly wrong about? Well, probably all things political, and religious for that matter, if you asked Bill, but one thing that I want to focus on specifically is that Bill (or perhaps his co-host Steve Benen, I can't remember which one made this exact quote, but they both agree with its sentiment) asserted without further comment that I was "flatly, obviously wrong" in my claim that any expansion of government power results in a loss of freedom.
Well, it's not obvious that I am wrong in my assertion. I wish that Bill and Steve had realized that and expanded their response a little more, so I had something to work with here because to me, it is obvious that I am right.
Before I set about defending that I am right that any expansion of government power results in a loss of freedom, let's first define what is meant by the word "freedom" here.
Merriam-Webster online defines freedom as "1: the quality or state of being free: as, a: the absence of necessity, coercion, or constraint in choice or action b: liberation from slavery or restraint or from the power of another : independence," followed by c-h, but for my purpose, I want to focus on a and b.
Freedom means being absent from constraint in choice or action, free from the power of another.
To be totally free would mean to have no force or power limiting any of our choices or actions.
However, we do have the force of government limiting our choices and actions. Any time the government passes a law, it limits our choices or actions; that is the purpose of passing laws!
This is not to say that is a bad thing – it is necessary, to some extent – but, it is clear that any time the government is empowered to make choices for us, we become less free.
Not only is this claim NOT "flatly, obviously wrong," but it is, by the very definition of freedom absolutely correct!
So what's the big deal?
Well, it's not always a big deal, in a negative sense. I mean, we need to limit the freedom of others to hurt us or our property. This is the main function of our government. We cannot have freedom unless those who would seek to oppress us are restrained. It's kind of paradoxical; we must restrict freedom to protect freedom. But that is only true in a very limited sense, and that must remain limited.
There are many ways the government limits our freedom that are not necessary for protecting us. They serve to shape our behavior in ways that are deemed better than the alternatives. These things do not always seem like a big deal, as long as we are doing what the government wants us to do.
For example, in 2012, incandescent light bulbs will be banned in the US. This is an obvious limit on our freedom of light bulb choice. If you are already using another type of bulb by then, which most people will, since manufacturers are phasing out incandescent bulbs already, the ban will not seem like a big deal because you are already making the choice the government allows – no conflict.
But, if you, like me, have a health condition that is exacerbated, causing severe pain, by compact fluorescent bulbs, the US ban on incandescent bulbs is kind of a big deal.
When you want (or in this case, need) to do something that falls outside of what the government has mandated, your lack of freedom becomes glaringly obvious.
We have come to a point that most people do not care about the expanded role of government and its encroachment on freedom, unless it directly impacts them. Our freedom is taken for granted to the extent that well-educated, thoughtful men deny the basic truth that any expansion in government power has a direct impact on freedom.
This was never an issue to me, either, until I chose an alternative lifestyle that butts up against the government's unjust power – I decided to homeschool.
The government has, in incremental steps over the years, declared itself the sole power over the education of our children. That was not always the case. That power used to lie with the family. These days, it is expected that the state needs to have that power, even when it contradicts what parents think is best for their own children.
Now, if you want to educate your child outside of the government-run system, the state controls and limits those choices.
If you want to use an alternative method that does not conform to the "school-at-home" model, you run the risk of problems with the state and charges of educational neglect.
The loss of freedom in education happened over decades. That is how many freedoms are eroded and government power is expanded. It happens gradually over time, in a way that most people do not realize, until the freedom is gone and the government power is accepted as the norm.
As long as one lives within the scope of what the government deems okay, the reach of government power into our lives is not obvious. It is not until one wants to exercise a different choice that the limitation of our freedom is felt.
I did not realize how important it is to oppose the expansion of government, thereby protecting our freedom, until it affected me, but the truth is, we should all care whether it affects us or not.
If I accomplished only one thing in the three years that I published this blog, let it be that I raised your awareness about why freedom matters.
If you do not care about the freedom of others, it may be too late when you finally realize that your own freedom has been limited.
If freedom matters, and it does, it is worth defending the freedom of everyone.
There is no problem that cannot be solved without sacrificing our freedom to do so.
Today, Dr. Donnica Moore was on The View and the topic was preventing bone loss in women. One of the ladies asked her about the recommendation that women should get a bone scan at age 30 as a baseline, since bone loss can start that early.
She replied that she agrees with that recommendation, but with health care reform we are trying to eliminate unnecessary tests, so the American Osteopathic Association recommends scans at age 60.
Welcome to state-run medical care, folks. Enjoy it while you can. Before you die from something that is currently able to be detected early, but won't be when we have to wait for basic care.
What? I'm just using Republican scare tactics?
That's what everyone said – including our truthful president – when the right claimed that private insurance would be driven out by the government. Yet, Investor's Business Daily reports that the House's health care legislation goes so far as outlawing private coverage.
Of course, as Pres. Obama said, we can keep our current coverage. We just can't alter it or ever get another policy, if we move or change jobs.
Government monopoly, baby.
While you revel in it, check out Steven Crowder's undercover look at Canada's system.
I hope you have $900 for a check up at a private clinic. That seems to be the standard advice given by the government run health providers, not once but thrice, in his video.
Hope and Change!
I just wanted to update you on what is going on with the blog. I know I said I was done at the end of June, but I also said there were a few things I wanted to post before the end. Well, I didn't get to those posts and June is over. I still want to do those posts, though.
Basically, I will try to get them done this week, but I am very busy with the kids, so I might not get to it. Next week, though, the kids have camp in the morning Monday through Friday, so I will have some free time. In other words, the blog will be wrapping up by the end of next week, at the latest.
Thanks for sticking around.
While you await my final days of thought-provoking commentary, check out this really cool stop motion video using post-its.
I just realized that Tuesday is the last day of the month. That means I only have three more days to do the posts I want to do before She's Right closes up shop for good. I had better get cracking!
I was out today and every place I went was playing Michael Jackson. Even Small Dog Electronics (an Apple store in So. Burlingon, VT). And Barnes and Noble Booksellers was playing some instrumental version of "Smooth Criminal" with a violin. It was surreal.
I tried to find the violin thing on You Tube. I found this David Garrett video.
I don't think it is the one I heard It sounds different from the one I heard, but it is very cool. Who knew classical instruments could rock out? (Yes, I know, plenty of people knew that.)
The German lady speaks until about :50 in.
You can find the video of the original Michael Jackson Smooth Criminal here. (Embedding disabled, unfortunately)
Then there is always the Alien Ant Farm version, if you're into post-grunge alternative. The video is a fun homage to the King of Pop himself, including the light up sidewalk a la Billie Jean. But, somehow I remember the song sounding much better when I was 25. (Man, I hate getting older.)
Again, embedding disabled, so you have to follow the link.
No, I did not watch the infomercial for Obama's health care reform, but I have been wanting to say this.
According to President Obama,
"If you like your doctor, you will be able to keep your doctor, period. If you like your health care plan, you will be able to keep your health care plan, period."
Last night, the president clarified that statement.
"When I say if you have your plan and you like it, . . . or you have a doctor and you like your doctor, that you don't have to change plans, what I'm saying is the government is not going to make you change plans under health reform."
The reality is that, for most people, their employers will choose whether or not to abandon the private system for the government plan.
Think about that for a minute. The government is going to come along with this low-cost, taxpayer-subsidized health care plan and your employer will get to choose between that and the plan they currently offer you.
Cheap government insurance vs. expensive private insurance. What will they choose?
Hint: your employer probably cares about the cost, not so much the quality – and not so much about how much you like your plan.
Bottom line: You will not be able to keep your health insurance plan.
Once the government has a monopoly, how good do you think your health care will be?
Every honest conversation about health care reform has included talk about changing what we in America expect from our health care system, which is a nice way to say we have to expect less from it, if we want a public system.
One of the proposed savings measures is eliminating "unnecessary" tests. I don't know about you, but I want my doctor – not the government – deciding what tests are necessary.
And once the government controls health care, they will be able to regulate almost every aspect of our lives (the few they don't already) because it is for the common good to keep us healthy, according to what the government deems necessary to that end.
On the bright side, maybe we won't have to hear that tired old phrase "for the children" any more. Now it will be "for our health."
The Burlington Planning and Zoning Office refuses to issue a Certificate of Occupancy to a landlord who replaced rotting wood siding with nice new siding.
"It was a distinct loss when the original siding was replaced," [Mary O'Neil, a historic-preservation officer with the city's Planning and Zoning Office] said of the three ALPH buildings. "They no longer look the way the used to look."
Apparently, Ms. O'Neil likes the look of rotting wood.
The City's justification for the hold up: the siding has a 4-inch reveal. The original siding had a 3-inch reveal.
Seriously. This is your tax dollars at work, folks.
The first two "Top Headlines" on my Google homepage:
Iran police 'use gas' on protesters
That reminds me, the ever-funny right-wing humor blog IMAO has a list of the "Top Ten Reasons Obama Hasn't Spoken Out About Iran."
My fav is #7.
Thought iRan was the accessory for the iPod that keeps track of how many miles you jog.
You should read IMAO. Really humor is all we have left at this point.
I have to mention, as Mr. Right just pointed out to me as I was writing this, not everyone thinks Obama should speak out. Pat Buchanan thinks he should keep his mouth shut.
Feel free to discuss.

Militants attack radar post in Balochistan
A security personnel was killed while two were injured when some unidentified militants attacked and took control of a radar post in Pakistan's Balochistan province Saturday night, state media here reported.
The troops, however, reclaimed the post after a fierce gun-battle, an official said.
The incident occurred when an estimated 20 to 25 armed men attacked a radar post, located a kilometre from the main airport of Pasni city, a fishing port in Gwadar district of the province, Xinhua quoted PTV as saying.
No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack.

Canon General / Re: Is this rude or just customer apathy?« on: October 22, 2013, 06:30:50 PM »
Yep, a deposit (and a contract) is the solution. I always tell the clients that until i have their deposit, the day remains open for other customers.

When a model shoot is going really well, I like to click about every 1-2 seconds. I was hoping that with the speedlight on manual at 1/2 or 1/4 power, that it would keep up, but it didn't. I lost about one shot out of every 3 or 4 when it didn't fire. That was with alkaline batteries. I later tested with eneloops and it worked a little better.I think Yongnuo has minimum 2 sec between shots regardless of power. I think I read somewhere this is a tech spec of the flash they produce.
Situation is I have a tight studio, reach on the 135 might be tight, but the optics are probably superior.If you've got a tight studio, I'd strongly suggest don't get either the 135 or an 85. Both good lenses, but you need some flexibility. If money is tight, seriously consider a pre-owned 70-200 f/4 non-IS. Make no mistake. This is class-glass. The flexibility a zoom brings to the table cannot be underestimated. Especially one as optically strong as any of Canon's 70-200 offerings.
Want an 85 1.2 but can't really afford it. The 1.8 might be a good compromise based on price, smaller reach for tighter spaces, I kind of think 440 might be much when the 50 1.8 is $100.

Assassin's Creed 4 dev: pirates no longer 'for kids'

You and I know pirates to be cheery drunkards, perhaps made of plasticine, who plunder cursed booty and battle sea monsters. Yet, Ubisoft Montreal claims, this is all fiction. The developer has said it is "giving pirates the HBO, reality treatment" in Assassin's Creed 4: Black Flag, suggesting that perhaps piracy wasn't all hook hands and perching parrots. Read more

Mix Engineer Tim Anderson talks about a project 2 years in the making,
with a goal in mind….
Tim's Mix Seminars happen throughout the Summer from 10am – 2pm in Studio B
: ) Learn how to get these guitar sounds
Check out this cool and innovative release!
T. Perry Bowers, owner of Taylor Sound Rehearsal/Recording/and Video Studios in NE Minneapolis, has released the first Silverseed album. Perry (drums and lead vocal) and partner Charlie Henrikson on guitar and BG vocals, wrote, tracked and produced all songs. The band was 2 piece at first-drums and guitar with 2 vocals, until recently adding bass for the live show. The inspirational lyrics have to do with us living on the planet among many audio surprises reflecting on the complex Zeppelin era. 2 years in the making, I was given carte blanche on the mix. The band sounds remarkably close to the record when playing live, and was a main goal of my mix. You can enjoy the featured single "Sun Inside" on the U tube link.

I'd forget buying the "perfect" bike, and just get something you can afford and get out there. Buy used, learn from the experience, have some fun.
I was where you are a few years ago, though I had some some Jurassic-era dirt experience.
In the last 3 years, I have had a '99 DR350SE, '06 DR650SE, and now an '09 WR250R. Hasn't cost much to play, all sold for close to what I had in them. Anything with a plate that lets you get out there should do for a starting point. As someone noted above, in general lighter will make you smile more.
KLX250S, WR250R, DR-Z400, XR650L, DR650SE, whatever. KLR if you are gravel road biased, not so much if dirt means single track.
For a cheap starting point, with your inseam, I'd look for either a KLX or DR650. DR is better on the road, KLX on the trail, both do both.
They're cheap, plentiful, reliable, and no matter what you buy, it will be your first dual-sport but probably not your last.

|Last night my cats got into a nasty fight but the only one who got scratched was me. Muffin (younger, timid of the two) was sleeping on my computer console when she slipped off and was clawing at it to pull herself back up. I reached down and grabbed her to lift her back up onto it and suddenly she was hissing and clawing and my older cat Dustin was hissing and clawing trying to get to her. I lifted her up high and tried to hold an soath her but the stripe on the back of both cats neck was up and I knew these were serious hissing and maybe some spitting (it all happened kinda fast). Muffin ran downstairs and I managed to chase Dustin into my bedroom and shut him in there for the night. I went downstairs to see if Muffin was ok and she didn't seem concerned about me but kept watching to see if Dustin was coming downstairs.
I figured I'd let them sleep on it and things would be better this morning but it seemed like they were gonna start again. I brought Dustin downstairs to feed them and they started to stare at each other and Dustin became agitated wanting to go after her (which I diffused by putting food in his dish). He kinda circled his food and then sat and ate. I had to put her food on the floor and she ate a bit but kept watching him like a hawk. I think Dustin was set off because of how intently she was staring at him when we came downstairs. She started to crouch down more and more as the intensity of their stare increased. They still weren't really comfortable after eating. I grabbed a can of compressed air, the type you use to blow dust off your computer, and if their stares seemed to go on too long or seem fixated then I'd give a lil blow (Dustin hates the sound). He did seem like he was approaching her but then I realized he saw her food on the carpet and slowly moved past her to eat it.
I have her in my bedroom now but I'm wondering how long do I have to watch them for a fight? I don't want to make the situation worse by being over-protective and I feel I should be around when they are together for a bit, just to shake a can of coins or blow a can of air. Does anyone have any idea if there is anything I can do to help them be comfortable with each other or how long this weird thing between them might last? I'm also curious if anyone has any thoughts on why this happened. I think what happened was that Muffin was half-asleep when she fell off the computer, she fell off her kitty tower once, and she got scared especially when I tried to help her get up. Dustin was either responding to her fear and trying to... calm her down?, chase her off? (but then I'm thinking of dogs correcting one another) or he was trying to protect me? (do cats do that kinda thing?). He is definitely closer to me, sleeps close by me and gets annoyed if I'm in a room with the door shut.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!! I have no problem jumping in to diffuse a situation but my mom will only add panic to it. Also is the can of coins/can of air to startle them and distract them a good way to break a mood? What about water bottle? I want to snap them out of it not add fuel to the fire.

|I think that by intervening with rattling cans and the like, you are adding to the stress that both cats feel. A non-intrusive method of intervention would be to start feeding the two kitties in different rooms with a closed door separating them and guaranteeing them each their own space and the chance to eat in peace. This should go far to diffuse one of the main sources of rivalry and hostility between these two.
If they are fighting over a favorite sleeping spot, I'd just let the two of them work it out. Presumably your house has multiple sleeping nooks, one of which the loser cat can adopt as his own.
Is one of these felines a new arrival at your house?
|Cats typically work it out with a lot of hissing and posturing but rarely drawing blood. I'd let them alone to establish whatever they need to establish in terms of heirarchy or equality.

|No they've been here since we moved in two years ago. They don't fight over food or sleeping spots, but I do think that I did fuel the fight in some way. Plus last night they weren't really rattling, Dustin clawed my thigh trying to get to Muffin. I think the fight probably wouldn't have happened if I didn't grab Muffin to help her get back on her feet. I've helped the cats before if they slip, sometimes on a window sill, just grab them around the ribcage, just under the arms, and lift them up high enough to get back on four paws. Muffin was hanging over the computer tower, her belly on the top with front legs on one side and back legs on the other and was scraping her claws on the metal case trying to pull herself up. Now this is a regular case about 2-2.5 feet high sitting on the floor, that they both sleep on regularly, I don't know why she got frightened which is why I think she was half-asleep/almost all asleep when she shifted position and started to fall off. I think she freaked and when I picked her up she had a frantic energy that set Dustin off possibly fueled by my proximity (maybe he thought she was going after me). They are running free now, this morning Dustin was whining to get into my bedroom so I let him and she came down from her cat tower and they kinda sniffed each other, walked a bit tentatively around each other and then seemed to forget everything when the dogs got up. With two teenage puppies running around the cats have other things to pay attention to, lol.
They don't wrestle often with each other but if they do and one starts to hiss or spit I'll just call out 'HEY!' and they step away from each other and then aren't interested in it anymore. Next time I'll probably let them get up by themselves but seeing them scrambling, clawing at something to pull themselves up on, if they seem to struggle a bit too long I feel bad for them and just give them a hand. I'll keep a can of coins/air around just in case.

|When I was younger I once brought a cat home from the shelter and just introduced her to the resident male cat. Well she went tearing after him and luckily he didn't want to fight so when I could grab her I put her back in her crate and took her back to the shelter :( When I introduced these cats to each other in their new home I had Muffin set up in the bathroom for the first few days and would swap them out to get used to each other's scent before I let them loose together in the apartment.
Last night's fight felt like the one years ago rather then two cats finding their place. They've been together since fall of 2008 and the only issue they had was some food warning/aggression. A family friend out in the country had a litter of kittens in his garage/barn. The mother was a neighbours cat and so my friend got left responsibility for the three kittens. He never cared much for cats, actually I think he hates cats, but he wouldn't let an animal suffer so he fed them some cat food but only one bowl a day in the morning and in separate locations for the multiple animals (he had two large dogs). When she first came she was naturally possessive of her food because she was conditioned that it was only there once a day and if you don't eat it all right away someone else will. I corrected her and the hissing at the food bowl went away quite fast when she realized she was getting plenty of food. So I don't think the cats are fighting for position or such in the house.
The fight erupted with no warning signs and lingered a bit this morning. It was more like two cats who just met and decide to go at it.

|Cats do fight to find their position in a hierarchy, and sometimes a violent spat can occur if they accidentally end up in each other's space, like when your cat lost its footing. I would grab a cat to prevent it from falling too, but hissy spitty snarly screaming fights are just in the nature of the beast, and it's really best not to try to play referee.
It is too bad that you returned the earlier kitty to the shelter. If left alone the 2 kitties probably would have settled their issues and coexisted. I would have felt a stronger loyalty to the cat I owned first too, but I would have given the newcomer at least 48 hours to integrate.
|I think it happens to all multiple cat households at one time or another. In mine, it usually happened between a mother/daughter pair who for the most part were best friends and rarely seen apart. But when they got into it.........THEY GOT INTO IT. But one eventually ran, and it was usually the daughter. Hard to tell what set my pair off, but I'm sure it was one transgressing into personal space when the other wasn't in the mood to share it.
Yes, it is scary and I don't know what I would've done had one of them not yelled 'uncle'. Prolly let them have it with a bucket of cold water.

|I was young and I got her because my mom wouldn't let me take my cat from home (even though he was obviously MY cat) so I'm older and mature enough to know I got her for the wrong reasons. I do think of her and hope she got a good home.
- Posted by spedigrees (email@example.com) on Thu, Feb 10, 11 at 17:34
|I'm sorry this happened to you in the past. I hope things settle down between your two kitties now, but I'm certain they will. Cats really do fight and it is a part of their normal social interaction. Try not to worry or feel compelled to control the situation. They will sort it all out and it is unlikely they will be injured in the process.

Children get Santa's attention with Powerpoint
BONUS: See actual Powerpoint from Jimmy Morgan, an emotionally troubled 9 year old.
NORTH POLE - Kids around the world are using technology this year to compete for Santa's attention. The U.S. Post Office reports Santa has received a record number of Powerpoint presentations from children hoping to make their letters stand out among the millions of letters sent to Santa. Most Powerpoint presentations received by Santa include a large list of requested gifts. Many children also include a detailed description of good behaviors that justify Santa's generosity.
In one troubling case, an emotionally unstable child, Jimmy Morgan sent Santa a Powerpoint with an unreasonably large gift list in a spreadsheet format. The presentation also promised several threatening actions if Santa fails to deliver the requested gifts (see actual Powerpoint).
Many children also include testimonials to help convince Santa they are worthy gift recipients. Poor economic conditions have prompted many children to tug on Santa's heart strings by highlighting the financial hardships they have endured with their families. Gut-wrenching stories of broken homes, bankruptcies, foreclosed homes, and substance addiction are displayed throughout the pages of many Powerpoint files.
A spokesperson for Santa said the requests this year are overwhelming. To ease the review process, the North Pole IT department is reportedly beta testing an online database that will allow children to submit their annual gift list and justification in a more consistent format. Until the new system is operational Santa will continue to respond to individual Powerpoints via email.

Description: A deliciously nasty black comedy, Heathers is set at a cliquish high school in Ohio. The most exclusive of those cliques is the Heathers, comprised of the prettiest and most popular girls in town. The group's leader is the manipulative Kim Walker, who orchestrates the humiliation of anyone who fails to meet her standards. Eventually, Heathers member Winona Ryder begins to exhibit a conscience; together with her hardcase boyfriend Christian Slater, Ryder plots to avenge all the unfortunate victims of the group. Before long, Heather (Kim Walker) ends up dead along with Kurt and Ram, with poignant suicide notes posted near their bodies.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

Right-click the CD Drive and choose Properties, and I think you can do it from in there.
. . . and only then noticed the tick box that you didn't want to tick, is ticked I am forever telling people to read the dialogue boxes before clicking OK it's so embarrassing to do it myself.
Now I have a piece of software starting whenever I put a CD into the drive. Is there a way to set it back to asking me what I want to do?
Right-click the CD Drive and choose Properties, and I think you can do it from in there.
Yep, that's the way!
Unless its something like...
Nero Smartstart or Nero Vision
Alternatively, uninstalling the software altogether should work.
see if its made a service if it has disable it.
Just a thought.
Update on this issue:
I put "ask me . . . " into the drive properties - no effect the software still took over.
I rolled the machine back to before I did the dastardly deed and now it is OK.

"Great recipe! The same as mine. My husband just hates pumpkin, but loves this pumpkin roll. Easy and quick to prepare.Thanks!"
"The taste was good and texture is great. But I had to bake it for 25 minutes above the recommended time until the wooden stick came out clean. Be very careful in taking the loaf out of the pan. It's more difficult than any other sweet bread. It's perfect for any occasion for coffee and tea time."
"Very easy to make and excellent result. I found this recipe by chance as I had some dates and had no clue what to do with them. I used handy pure orange exctract instead of ornage rind. It was also very good. Thanks "

The Energy Report - China versus the East Coast
November 01 2012 8:22 AM
Today the energy complex is going to have to balance an increase in the China Purchasing Managers' Index number versus the historic energy demand destruction caused by Hurricane Sandy. The day after RBOB wholesale gasoline futures had a classic expiration squeeze play pop and drop other commodities are looking to China after renewed hopes of an across the board commodity rally after coming off the worst monthly loss in 5 months. The National Bureau of Statistics and China Federation of Logistics reported that Chinese manufacturing index increased to 50.2 in October from 49.8 in September. HSBC mirrored that commodity bullish enthusiasm reporting their China PMI showing an increase from 47.9 in September to 49.5 in October which would be an eight month high. While copper and precious metals and grains may soar the energies may lag as the magnitude of this storm and its epic demand destruction starts to sink in.
The Energy Report Wednesday October 31, 2012 Enough with Refineries
October 31 2012 11:12 AM
Enough with the refineries already! At least on the East Coast! Let's talk about the refineries that will really impact gasoline prices and that is in Texas City and in Indiana. With all the talk about the storm is about East -Coast refineries when it should be about the destruction of demand. As I have written before there are three phases in trading a disaster. The first is demand destruction, the second assessment, the third rebuilding. The US stock market that is getting ready to reopen is already focused on the rebuilding phase.
The Energy Report - Storm Surge Corrected!
October 29 2012 9:53 AM
As the East Coast and the largest city in the United States gets ready for Franken-storm the energy markets will price in the risk and the balance between lost supply and the destruction of demand. While the storm will shut down 6.5% of US refining capacity and motorists will top off their tank the shutdown of major cities and the expected power outages may take a toll on demand unlike anything we have seen before. The impact on demand may not last for hours but more than likely for days. This could be the biggest demand destruction event in history. The East Coast is by far the largest consumer of gasoline as they consumed 3,20200 barrels per-day.
Alpari Grain Report 10/26
October 27 2012 4:10 AM
Thursdays weekly export sales report drew a negative response from futures. The report tells us how much of each grain was sold for future shipment and becomes our best report on demand fundamentals. Corn sales were 142 t.m.t. down 13% from the prior week. Average sales the last four weeks were 159 t.m.t. Average weekly sales for October 2011 were 1.161 m.m.t. and October 2010 569 t.m.t.. The high price of corn in October 2011 was 4.50, October 2011 7.50 and October 1 this year's 7.75. Price rations commodity. That's the purpose of the market. But corn exports are sharply lower than a year ago as a result of world demand for feed grains increasing for three consecutive years lowering our corn ending stocks to historically low levels, while production issues failed to keep pace. The high price is rationing the crop but the government as well has played a role in rationing.
The Nemenoff Report Bonds Lower, S&P's higher, Silver Higher
October 26 2012 9:29 AM
Dec. Bonds are currently 19 higher at 147'10 and the 10 Yr. Notes 10 higher at 132'07. I continue with my long term negative bias and look to be a seller on strong rallies. At the moment I will be a seller above 148'26 if the market allows. This morning's GDP number of up 2.0% was slightly better than expectations of 1.8%.
The Energy Report Friday -Sandy, Cant You See?
October 26 2012 9:02 AM
Sandy Can't you see, that you will cause misery? The refiners made a start but now you could tear them apart. Oh please go out to sea! Hurricane Sandy is far from a dandy threatening to be one of the worst storms in history. Because it will blow away ghosts and goblins it is being called the "Frankenstorm". It will also blow energy demand. Already oil prices that were under pressure as downgrade rumors swirled and we took another hit after Apple had lousy earnings. Who knew I-PADS ran on oil? Really they blamed rising commodity costs and increasing competition.
The Nemenoff Report Bonds Lower, S&P's higher, Silver Higher
October 25 2012 10:14 AM
Dec. Bonds are currently 1'01 lower at 146'14 and the 10 Yr. Note 17 lower at 131'27. News out of Europe and Asia that the pace of slowing economies is not quite as disparate as once thought has bumped the rate on the 30Yr. Bond to just above the 3.0% level. This morning's Weekly Jobless Claims showed a decline of 23,000 and Durable Goods orders were up 9.9% vs. expectations of 7.8%. The FOMC has left rates unchanged and will continue their strategy of buying $40 billion worth of long maturity treasuries per month for the near future. What is "up in the air" for the moment is Bernanke's continuing tenure as Fed Chair, especially if Romney should pervail in the upcoming election. A new Fed chair could could signal an end to continued near zero rates for short term instruments. I maintain my negative bias and will continue to be a seller on sharp rallies.
The Energy Report - Nothing Bearish About It
October 25 2012 8:10 AM
If you were trying to find anything in the Federal Reserve Open Market Committee statement, well forget about it. The Federal Reserve showed little signs of decision and it is all steam ahead with unlimited easing. While the market is still fretting about Europe and China it is clear that the Fed will still have their back. Even the concerns that the Japan's spate with China over some islands, could add to further slowing in the region, it seems that may be offset somewhat by the markets expectation that Japan is getting ready to act and pump more yen into their sagging economy. Plus in the UK they got an Olympic sized bounce out of negative growth inspired in part by the Queen sailing into the Olympic village in a parachute. I am sure that helped alcohol sales as well.
The Energy Report - The World is Falling Apart!
October 24 2012 8:57 AM
Wow, I miss one day and the world falls apart! Yesterday I was honored to speak at Loyola's Women of Wisdom event and when my speech was over my voicemail was overflowing. It seems that every time I miss a day some catastrophe strikes the world. So if President Obama is right that when he took office the low gas price was a sign of economic doom the biggest gasoline price drop in history probably does bode well for his reelection.
Alpari Grain Report 10/24
October 24 2012 3:20 AM
Monday's crop progress report showed little improvement in harvest from the week prior. Corn harvest is now 87% complete, versus 79% the week prior. Lagging behind was Ohio at 50%, Pennsylvanian 58%, Michigan 48% and Indiana 72%. Unless those Eastern grain belt states get to it this week, next week looks terrible for harvest. WXRISK.com the AG weather site sees a hurricane now in the Caribbean hitting the East Coast Sunday, October 28 and Monday 29.

The Energy Report - Golden Slumber!
October 22 2012 10:00 AM
At the same time the Wall Street Journal raised the possibility of a gold backed Eurobond as a way out of this crisis. Calling it a golden solution for Europe's debt crisis they suggested that Europe go for the gold. The Journal said that "The idea is not to sell the stuff. Instead, the proposal is to bring down borrowing costs by using gold to guarantee the partial repayment of bonds to investors in case of a default. Italy's gold reserves would cover 24% of its estimated borrowing needs over the next two years and Portugal 30%. If the two countries could issue some unsecured debt at the same time, they could bridge an even longer period. The Journal says that hypothetically it might help Italy to avoid asking its neighbors for a bailout and aid Portugal to regain access to the bond markets.
The Phil Flynn Energy Report - Trying To Find Something To Believe In!
October 19 2012 9:37 AM
On the 25th anniversary of the 1987 stock-market crash traders are once again trying to find something to believe in. After yesterday's Google's earnings debacle, distrust of China's GDP data and fears that Europe won't act forcefully enough to stem problems in Spain and Greece is causing a lack of confidence sell-off. Yet while oil toils and precious metals falter the heating oil gasoline spread continues to rock.
The Nemenoff Report Bonds Higher, S&P's Lower, Silver Lower
October 18 2012 9:59 AM
Dec. Bonds are currently 9 higher at 146'30. This mornings Weekly Jobless claims were up 46K vs. expectations of up 23K causing Bonds to rally off of recent lows of 146'10. Earlier in the week we took profits from recent short positions in the 148'15 area. To be honest I am a bit surprised that the market traded as low as it did over the last couple of sessions taking out near term support in the 147'09 area. For the long term I still remain overall negative but feel that it is important to wait for sharp rallies to sell into this market keeping in mind Fed action in regards to Quantitative Easing and "Operation Twist". For the near term support is currently 146'12 and resistance the 149'00 area.
Alpari Grain Report 10/16
October 16 2012 4:41 PM
Monday's weekly crop progress reports meant little to prices as were winding down the harvest for corn and beans and our condition reports, once aggressively traded, are now over. Corn harvest came in at 79% complete versus the five year average of 38%. This skewed difference was, the results of the earliest planting dates on record which led to early maturity then harvest. Laggers were Indiana at 61% and Ohio 31% harvested.
The Nemenoff Report Bonds Lower, S&P's higher, Silver Higher
October 16 2012 9:45 AM
Dec. Bonds are currently 29 lower at 148'17. Better than expected German consumer confidence numbers have given equities and the Euro a boost and consequently a break in Bonds. If you went short at yesterday's resistance of the 149'26 area, take the short term profit.
The Energy Report - Will You Just Ask for Your Bailout Already?
October 16 2012 7:58 AM
Greece will get its bailout. Spain will be rescued! So why the heck did we ever doubt it? Yesterday the doubts crept into the market place as the European politicians played a game of economic chicken trying to get a sense of who might blink. Today the market is coming back on yet another story that indeed it will just be a matter of time before Spain asks for help. In the mean time the oil market plays a game of risk on risk off as this economic mating ritual plays out. I feel so used!
The Energy Report - Oil Enigma's
October 15 2012 8:58 AM
The emerging markets are whining about quantitative easing and the Iranians are getting more desperate as their economy continues to tumble. The world is lowering demand expectations for oil global production is close to a 15 year high. Hedge funds cut back bullish commodity bets and China's inflation in near the lowest level in 2 years yet oil is still holding its own.
Alpari Grain Report 9/18
September 18 2012 4:43 PM
Sunday night into Monday saw the grains slowly dissolve as old bulls sold long held positions and new traders sold short. It took the entire night and day session to finish the selling until finally December corn settled down $.33, beans down its $.70 limit and week off $.44. Several issues were responsible. The first was failure of the Friday, September 14 European Central Bank meeting to agree to a timetable to resolve the euro debt crisis. Finance Ministers fought over every issue of a potent...
The Phil Flynn Energy Report
September 18 2012 8:25 AM
What do you get when you cross and options expiration Rosh Hashanah? The answer is a $3 dollar price drop in oil market in one minute. While oil's big surprise move was made on light holiday volume and during the last hour of options expiration just looking at the charts it is possible that the move could be what could be a technical game changer. Is it possible that the fundamentals for oil might be turning bearish?

Facebook Data . . . Oh, The Possibilities For Marketers!
Posted by Gina Fleming on August 1, 2012
Recently, there has been concern over privacy regarding data on Facebook. Since the recent Facebook IPO, many people have been wondering if the company is facing pressure to find a new source of revenue. The question in many people's minds is whether it will come from advertising and/or other sources — or whether Facebook will monetize the massive amount of data that the company has on consumers. After all, most people are on Facebook: Forrester's North American Technographics® Online Benchmark Survey (Part 2), Q3 2012 (US, Canada) shows that almost seven out of 10 US online adults have a Facebook account. What's more, that survey shows that the typical US online adult with a Facebook account has more than 180 friends on Facebook and spends an average of 7 hours each week on the site.
MIT's Technology Reviewrecently published an article on the topic, "What Facebook Knows." The article highlights how massive Facebook's consumer database is and compares Facebook with a country — with 900 million members, it would be the third-largest globally. People share all kinds of information with Facebook: their demographic details, personal information, interests, and even their contact information.
At this point, it is unclear what, if anything, Facebook will do with this data, but for marketers, the possibilities are endless. For instance, think about the opportunity for market researchers to have a detailed understanding of consumers who "like" their brand (as well as those who "like" their competitors) on Facebook — as well as how to reach them. If Facebook does leverage this data in some way, there is a substantial upside for the market research industry. Companies like SocialQ are already leveraging the depth of consumer intelligence available on Facebook for market research. The company provides a tool to author surveys whereby survey-takers can connect via Facebook and may give permission to access their Facebook profiles. Before even starting on the survey questions, marketers already have access to respondents' aggregated information, such as demographics, attitudes, and even which brands they "like." Given that third-party companies are already able to use aggregated Facebook data for market research insights, imagine what Facebook is capable of doing for the market research industry.
Whether Facebook will monetize its data is unknown, but one thing's for sure: If it does, there is a mountain of data and large number of opportunities that marketers could leverage. What do you think? If Facebook data were available, would your organization use this as a complement to existing market research efforts? Or as the Facebook population becomes more representative of the overall online population, could it replace existing sources of research?
There are many possibilities for marketing to the organizations. Organisations can make use of Facebook to maintain network and to store large amount of data.

Nov. 23 (Bloomberg) -- Treasuries gained as the U.S. sold $29 billion in seven-year notes at a record low auction yield amid concern of contagion from the European debt crisis, pushing investors into the safety of government debt.
U.S. debt advanced as German government bonds slid after the nation missed its maximum sales target at a bund auction by 35 percent. The difference between yields on Treasury 10-year notes fell below comparable bunds and widened to the most since May 2009, suggesting Germany's status as a main refuge from Europe's worsening sovereign-debt crisis is waning. Today's U.S. auction followed a record-low-auction yield at yesterday's five- year note sale.
"It was a very good auction, wrapping up a week of good auctions," said Jason Rogan, director of U.S. government trading at Guggenheim Partners LLC, a New York-based brokerage for institutional investors. "There is very strong demand for Treasuries with what's going on in Europe and with the supercommittee unable to come to a resolution at home."
The yield on the current seven-year note fell four basis points, or 0.04 percentage point, to 1.36 percent, at 5 p.m. in New York, according to Bloomberg Bond Trader prices. The 1.75 percent notes maturing in October 2018 rose 8/32, or $2.50 per $1,000 face amount, to 102 19/32.
The yield on the benchmark 10-year note fell three basis points to 1.88 percent, the least since Oct. 6. Thirty-year bond yields fell five basis points to 2.83 percent.
Bidding Details
The seven-year notes drew a yield of 1.415 percent, compared with a forecast of 1.446 percent in a Bloomberg News survey of 10 of the Federal Reserve's primary dealers. The bid- to-cover ratio, which gauges demand by comparing total bids with the amount of securities offered, was 3.2, the highest since May and compared with an average of 2.8 for the previous 10 sales.
Indirect bidders, an investor class that includes foreign central banks, purchased 39.9 percent of the notes, compared with an average of 43.7 percent for the past 10 sales.
Direct bidders, non-primary dealer investors that place their bids directly with the Treasury, purchased a record 18.9 percent of the notes, compared with an average of 9.4 percent at the last 10 auctions.
The Treasury resumed selling seven-year notes in February 2009 as it sought additional ways to raise money during the depths of the financial crisis, after having discounted the maturity in April 1993.
Debt Returns
U.S. debt maturing in seven to 10-years has returned 14 percent this year, outperforming a 9.3 percent return for the broader Treasury market, according to Bank of America Merrill Lynch indexes, as of yesterday.
Today's offering is the third of three auctions of U.S. notes this week totaling $99 billion. The two-year note auction on Nov. 21 produced the highest bid-to-cover ratio on record for a fixed-coupon Treasury note or bond, 4.07, while yesterday's five-year note sale was priced at a record low yield for the securities of 0.937 percent.
"On a scale from one to 10, all of the week's auctions were a 10," Guggenheim Partners' Rogan said. "And it's because people are just that nervous."
Germany's bund auction shows the nation is not immune to investors' increasing aversion to European debt, Frank Schaeffler, a lawmaker from Chancellor Angela Merkel's coalition said today in Berlin.
Ten-year bund yields rose 23 basis points to 2.15 percent, climbing above Treasury rates. Investors demanded a 27 basis- point premium to hold the German securities instead of their U.S. counterparts, compared with a 12-month average of 15 basis points in Germany's favor.
"It doesn't look like Europe is going to have any type of solution anytime soon, and until they do there will continue to be a major cloud over the growth outlook and will keep interest rates low for a long time," said Gary Pollack, head of fixed- income trading at Deutsche Bank AG's Private Wealth Management unit in New York, which manages $12 billion in bonds. "Equity prices have been leaking lower, and as a result there is a continued flight-to-quality bid into Treasuries."
The failure of the U.S. deficit reduction supercommittee on Nov. 21 to reach a deal means several tax programs, including a payroll tax holiday, risk expiring at the beginning of next year, weighing on the household spending that accounts for about 70 percent of the world's largest economy.
Budget Debates
"As well as the euro-region crisis, we have the U.S. supercommittee that seems to have failed and that means there will be automatic cuts in spending which will weigh on growth, playing into strong demand for Treasuries," said Michael Markovic, a senior fixed-income strategist at Credit Suisse Group AG in Zurich.
Treasuries weakened earlier after reports showed U.S. durable goods orders at factories fell less than forecast in October and weekly jobless claims remained lower than 400,000.
Bookings for durable goods meant to last at least three years declined 0.7 percent, less than forecast, after a 1.5 percent drop the prior month that was more than twice as large as originally reported, data from the Commerce Department showed today in Washington.
Jobs Picture
Applications for jobless insurance increased 2,000 in the week ended Nov. 19 to 393,000, Labor Department figures showed today in Washington. Economists forecast 390,000 claims, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg News survey
Gross domestic product climbed at a 2 percent annual rate from July through September, down from a previous estimate of 2.5 percent, the Commerce Department said yesterday.
"Expectations are still for upside into the yearend, given the uncertainties in Europe and the broader economic and policy risks risk facing the U.S." said Ian Lyngen, a government bond strategist at CRT Capital Group LLC in Stamford, Connecticut. "Treasuries have been, and could very well continue to be, the outperforming asset class. Yields are going to go lower."
Treasury trading is scheduled to close worldwide tomorrow for the U.S. Thanksgiving holiday.
